:07:00
- And lock it!
- I read this in a Maryland paper.

:07:03
"Rudy Martin, gangland victim,
was buried today."

:07:07
"Dave the Dude arranged his funeral."
:07:09
- Maryland? Old Rudy really got around.
- I beg your pardon?

:07:13
If you got money comin' to you, the Dude
is not pickin' up the tab for Rudy's bills.

:07:17
- Now be a nice girl. Take a walk. Bye.
- Rudy Martin was my father.

:07:26
You're Rudy's kid?
:07:29
- You're Queenie?
- Yeah. Well, that's what Papa called me.

:07:34
Hey! She ain't a horse!
:07:37
- Why didn't you show at the funeral?
- I just read about it.

:07:40
- You ain't pulling a fast one on me?
- Mr Dude, I'm here because of you.

:07:44
Papa came to see me last month
and he was very worried.

:07:47
He said "Queenie, if anything happens
to me, here's the lease to my club."

:07:51
"Give it to Dave the Dude. He's a right guy
and I've got to pay him back."

:07:55
So here it is. It's all signed and everything.
:07:58
That's very nice,
but the joint's in hock up to here.

:08:00
The inventory won't pay for the flowers,
so the lease is worth about a quarter.

:08:04
Miss Martin, "Papa" owes me $20,000,
:08:08
and a lot more to some guys
who don't laugh so easy.

:08:11
- That much?
- That much.

:08:19
Well, I've got a few dollars in the bank.
:08:22
What I make at the cafeteria,
I could manage five dollars a week.

:08:27
- A cafeteria?
- I'm cashier there.

:08:30
The next one Howard... uh, Mr Porter
opens, I'm gonna be manager.

:08:34
Then I could give you a little more.
:08:37
- It's five whole dollars.
- The lucky apple is working already.

:08:41
- Very big.
- It's the best I can do.

:08:47
Goodbye, Mr Dude.
Thank you for being Papa's friend.

:08:51
Yeah. I mean...
:08:58
That's the first broad I ever seen
who wanted to do something for you.
