- Hi, Johnny. Come in.
- Hello.
:44:06
Oh, he can't make it. I think he had
something to do about his laundry.
:44:10
Anyway, he said for us to go ahead
and rehearse.
:44:16
- Pretty fancy, isn't it?
- Yeah.
:44:19
Marty had it decorated for me
as a birthday present.
:44:23
It's the first real apartment
I've ever had. I just love it.
:44:27
Can I get you a drink or something?
:44:32
Cup of coffee, maybe?
:44:36
Not now, thank you.
:44:40
- Did you go to the radio station?
- Yes. I spent the morning...
:44:44
...outlining the first program.
:44:46
Oh, Johnny, I still can't believe it.
:44:48
My own radio program.
The best possible time on the air.
:44:53
And how about you, maestro?
Conducting your own orchestra.
:44:57
Very impressive, both of us.
:45:06
Ruth...
:45:07
...what happened when that agent
came to see you?
:45:10
- He had a booking.
- That's what I thought.
:45:13
Well, why didn't you take it?
:45:15
I'm not ready for it yet.
:45:17
And Marty will tell you
when you're ready?
:45:19
- He's made no mistakes.
- Loomis doesn't make mistakes.
:45:23
He's the best agent in the business.
:45:25
He works for you, you pay a commission,
and you don't owe him anything.
:45:29
- Let him handle you.
- I don't need him.
:45:31
- Did Marty tell you that?
- I don't need him, because I have Marty.
:45:35
You have Marty.
You'll have him for a long time.
:45:38
- He'll be right there every step.
- Let me tell you something.
:45:41
When it's right for me,
I'll be on my own.
:45:44
Use him, then ditch him
at the strategic moment?
:45:47
- Charming plan.
- What are you talking about?
:45:50
I don't have any plans.
You make it sound as if...
:45:53
- Why do you always start something?
- I don't. I just have an effect on you.
:45:57
With me, you let yourself look
at what you're doing.
