:15:02
I haven't done anything
remotely like this in my life.
:15:10
Strings.
:15:12
Yeah, but I got them all.
:15:14
- The hell you do.
- The hell I don't.
:15:16
I got a stack of 78s this high.
:15:22
This is death's door?
:15:28
Half the city thinks you're crimped
and you're signing autographs.
:15:32
You didn't think so, little birdy.
:15:34
Every time I turn around,
you're supposed to be gone.
:15:37
You'll bury us all
and take our women with you.
:15:40
So, what do you got there?
:15:43
Whitman's chocolates.
:15:46
Also, I think, some good news.
:15:48
Can he eat these?
:15:49
Better let me try one first.
:15:52
First of all...
:15:53
...Leighton will pay 100 bucks
for 5 tunes written for saxophone...
:15:58
...and before you jump on my ass...
:16:01
...I told him I'm not collecting
a commission on a sum that small.
:16:05
It's all yours.
:16:07
Thank you very much, Mr. Parker.
:16:09
What's second?
:16:11
Well, it's a little more long-range.
:16:15
I ran into Chummy Morello yesterday.
:16:19
Chummy.
:16:20
He's thinking about leaving Woody
and they want to send him on tour.
:16:25
It wouldn't be
till after the first of the year.
:16:29
My God, Bernie, that's three months.
:16:32
I know, I know, still...
:16:35
Well, needless to say,
he'd be honored to have you with him.
:16:40
If I'm straight.
:16:41
It's a legitimate concern.
:16:45
You got three months to...
:16:52
I'm trying.
It's a good prospect.
:16:58
Think about it.
