Now there goes a real fast man
with a buck, that Zimmerman.

:34:03
- Hey, what's this thing?
- A U-bolt I want to retread.

:34:05
I wonder if Willy's got some tools
I could use.

:34:06
Tools? The only tools around here
are a can-opener and a shovel. Maybe.

:34:11
You want to monkey with tools?
You go right down the road to the village...

:34:14
- Prohosko's garage, tell him I sent you.
- Prohosko's?

:34:17
Yeah. Peter J. Prohosko.
A very good friend of mine.

:34:19
I saw it on the way in.
:34:20
I'll go down there as soon as I clean
up in the barn. Thanks, Lew.

:34:26
It just happens
there is a big strong kid available.

:34:28
A big strong kid?
:34:31
How come I never heard of him?
Where'd he come from?

:34:33
- Who handles him?
- I'm his manager, naturally.

:34:36
He's fresh out of the service.
He won 17 straight knockouts.

:34:38
Seventeen straight knockouts? Where?
:34:42
Where?
:34:43
Well, actually,
he did most of his fighting in Australia.

:34:45
He was stationed in that area for two years.
:34:47
Rose!
:34:49
Why would I lie?
:34:51
Quiet. Both of you. I'm talking business.
:34:54
Excuse me, Jerry. No, he fights
under the name of Kid Galahad.

:34:58
No, not Gavilan. Galahad.
:35:01
That's right, like in the storybook.
:35:03
You know, it's romantic,
and they'll love him on TV.

:35:06
Available to you for $1,000.
:35:10
Well, if you're in a jam, Jerry, I'll let him go
for $750, but not a quarter less.

:35:14
Albany was always a fair city.
:35:17
That's right. One week from tonight.
You've got a deal.

:35:20
Who's he supposed to fight in Albany?
:35:22
Oh, just some clown.
I'll talk to you about it later.

:35:24
Wait, let's talk about it now. What clown?
:35:28
Ezzard Bailey.
Ten rounds at the Capital Casino.

:35:31
- Willy, how can you do a thing like that?
- Lay off, Lew.

:35:35
The kid's never had a professional fight
in his life and you know it.

:35:37
And Ezzard Bailey is no clown.
:35:39
All right, so I get 33.3%.
:35:42
It just so happens I can use the money.
:35:49
Why do you both
have to look at me like that?
