:12:01
What were you doing at
my hotel the other night?
:12:04
- I haven't been in the Bowery in years.
- Come on, boys. Break it up.
:12:07
When you want information,
don't scratch for it like a dog.
:12:10
Just ask for it like a man.
:12:16
If you're going home,
Susie, I'll drop you off.
:12:24
Steve, it's time for us to hit it again.
:12:27
- In a minute, Chico.
- OK.
:12:32
- Headache?
- It's all the excitement.
:12:35
I'll go home and go to bed early,
and you go to work.
:12:38
OK. Just don't leave me in a minor key.
:12:46
You haven't been playing
around with Leo Bartha?
:12:49
No. That's what I mean.
I'm bein' fired for what I didn't do.
:12:53
He came in last week
on a real dull, rainy night.
:12:56
I knew who he was, but I didn't let on.
He kept starin' at me all night.
:13:00
- Are you listening?
- Avidly.
:13:02
- He was staring.
- Starin'.
:13:04
So when he approached me
on his way out, I wasn't surprised.
:13:07
- He was doing a Sunday piece on...
- Cigarette girls. Naturally...
:13:11
You were thrilled
about being interviewed.
:13:14
And were you "interviewed"?
:13:17
In his apartment.
:13:20
- Where was his wife?
- I don't know. It's a big apartment.
:13:24
Only I wasn't interviewed. In fact, I was
totally unprepared for what happened.
:13:29
Oh, come on, chickie.
We're friends from way back.
:13:32
A columnist without his ball and chain,
you make like a delicatessen counter...
:13:37
What did you expect
he'd do in his apartment!
:13:39
But, Sidney, sweetheart.
The man must have been out of his mind.
:13:43
It was only 1 1 o'clock in the morning.
:13:46
I was so taken aback, I said anything
that popped into my sleepy head.
:13:50
If I'm not mistaken, I think I even
ordered the man out of his own house.
:13:55
He was furious. By the time I could've
been put in a tropical-island mood,
:13:59
I was out on the street.
