:23:01
- Were you ever a showgirl?
- God, no.
:23:04
You look like you could be.
:23:05
My wife's in show business, burlesque.
She eats money.
:23:08
Yesterday from St. Louis,
a fast telegram: "Sent some spot cash."
:23:13
But you must love her to stay married.
:23:16
I'm a glutton for punishment.
:23:19
You never know what kind of a dame
a guy'll wind up with.
:23:22
When Jerry said he was
bringing somebody...
:23:25
...I thought he'd walk in
with a fright wig.
:23:27
Needless to say, I was mistaken.
:23:30
Thanks.
:23:32
Well, a guy like Jerry deserves the best.
:23:35
- Man without a woman is nothing.
- Now you're being soft.
:23:38
Was I being tough before?
I was trying to make an impression.
:23:42
You don't like women, do you?
:23:45
Take any six of them, my wife included...
:23:48
...throw them up in the air.
The one who sticks to the ceiling, I like.
:23:54
Here's to Jeremiah,
whose heart's in the right place.
:23:57
I can't drink to myself, Earl.
:23:59
Well, then let's drink to me.
My heart's in the wrong place.
:24:03
Well, I'm off to my trundle bed.
Earl Pfeiffer's not the man he used to be.
:24:07
Take good care of Miss Doyle.
:24:09
- Have another beer before you go.
- Nope.
:24:11
Don't force him. Mr. Pfeiffer's tired.
:24:14
- We'll take you home.
- Jeremiah, you stay right where you are.
:24:17
I'm sorry I got the jumps tonight.
:24:19
I'm talking to you,
but what I'm thinking is:
:24:21
"What's my wife doing in St. Louis?
Who's she with?"
:24:25
Someday I'm gonna stick her full of pins
just to see if blood runs out.
:24:32
Miss Doyle, it was my pleasure.
:24:36
- Good night, Jeremiah. See you.
- So long, Earl.
:24:44
That wife, she sure leads him
a merry chase.
:24:46
He'd be the same with any woman.
:24:49
- Don't you like him, Mae?
- I don't like his attitude.
:24:52
- About what?
- Calling you Jeremiah.
:24:54
It's a way of
walking over you, patronizing.
:24:57
He isn't that good.
:24:58
I don't feel that way about it.
