RAYMOND: You may not know this,
but when I was still a cop...
:22:07
HARRY: Hey, hotshot.
:22:09
RAYMOND: I had one am bition--
to get into Verna's knickers.
:22:12
Failing was one of a series of
professional disappointments...
:22:16
that drove me
into the private sector.
:22:19
People told me
you were more fortunate.
:22:22
Ah.
:22:23
You m ust be confused, Raymond.
:22:25
RAYMOND: Oh, Lord,
I do hate a modest man.
:22:29
Care for a drink?
:22:31
I could use a cup of coffee.
:22:33
If we have to.
:22:35
Jack Ames send you
to look after me?
:22:37
The cops called the Ames house
to verify your address.
:22:40
Jack wanted me to make sure
they hadn't electrocuted you.
:22:45
I appreciate his confidence.
:22:47
Want some m ilk or sugar?
:22:49
No, not for me.
:22:51
You want some thinner?
:22:54
No, thanks.
:22:56
Back when I was working security
at the studio...
:23:00
it was a full-time job
keeping Jack out of trouble.
:23:03
No. Doctor's orders.
:23:05
If there was an actress
he m issed boinking...
:23:08
I don't know who she was.
:23:10
They all loved him,
even after he dum ped 'em.
:23:13
The man had the gift.
:23:17
HARRY: Their husbands took
a dim mer view, if I remem ber.
:23:20
-Well, they would.
-Especially Catherine's.
:23:23
Billy Sullivan.
It hurt Billy so bad...
:23:27
he swam out to sea
and never swam back.
:23:29
Of course, he also lost a bundle
gam bling about the same time.
:23:33
Lose a woman like Catherine....
:23:35
and a whole lot of money
in the same week...
:23:38
you can begin to feel
sorry for yourself.
:23:41
I can see how you m ight.
:23:44
Never having had either.
:23:48
I used to think Jack Ames...
:23:49
was about the luckiest man
I'd ever run across.
:23:53
Looks like he's run out of luck,
though.
:23:57
Cancer's what I heard.
