:39:04
That don't sound like the old Hollis juice.
:39:13
That's Fran. Fran Page. Hollis' old flame.
:39:17
Unless I got my photographs mixed, she
had some fire left over for Mr. Drake, too.
:39:21
Yeah, the 88-man grabbed her off
and then he gave her the Fuller.
:39:25
The "Fuller"?
:39:27
The brush.
:39:35
Well, invite her over to the bar
and have a drink.
:39:37
Okay, order me a double bourbon
and better make it the same for Fran.
:39:41
- Think she'll like that?
- She can always give it to me.
:39:48
- Clinker.
- Well, hi-dee-dee! Long time no.
:39:52
We really rode it high at that shuffle
of yours the other night, didn't we?
:39:56
- Yeah, it was a wonderful jam.
- Join us for a drink.
:39:58
I'll have to take a rain check. I'm with
the Nick Charles department tonight.
:40:02
- Nick Charles, the detective?
- Yeah.
:40:04
I don't care for anything.
:40:06
I thought you told us he was a pump man.
:40:09
I didn't want you to think I was loading up
your jams with a bunch of squares.
:40:12
They were the squarest hipsters
I've ever seen.
:40:15
- Yeah.
- What are they doing in a trap like this?
:40:17
They're looking for The Reed.
He's disappeared.
:40:19
- Really?
- Yeah.
:40:20
I didn't know that.
:40:21
Why, I thought that's what
you came here to see Fran about.
:40:25
No, I came to see her about a job
I can get her in Havana.
:40:29
Well, hi-dee-dee.
:40:34
Hey, Fran.
:40:36
Hello, Clinker.
:40:37
I just caught you. Still the same old Fran.
:40:40
Still plugging The Reed's tune, too.
:40:42
That's the least I can do for him, isn't it?
:40:44
- I've been looking all over for him.
- What do you want, lessons?
:40:47
Why don't you stay off it?
You know I've always been in his corner.
:40:50
Sorry. I've got the jumps.
:40:53
You need some laughs.
:40:54
Come on out and meet
a couple of friends of mine.
:40:57
- No, I don't feel like meeting anyone.
- May we come in?
