- 0:30 I'm going to go.
- 0:58 Hey, Stony! We'll not stop here so far!
- 1:02 All right, I'll swing easy then. All right, come on, let's go. Come on, let's see it. And what are you backing up for? Who are you waving at? And what are you affecting to be a wrestler? What is that, a hundred-yard dash?
- 1:12 Hey, glove me!
- 1:14 Why don't you get me a pot in a little spot?
- 1:17 Cap, you know no small partner will get in a ring, would you? The minute they're in their route.
- 1:20 Yeah, pretty tough, I guess.
- 1:22 Why, you'll hit that kid from the west side so hard you'll knock it from the north side to the south side.
- 1:26 Get in there and give them a few rounds. I got a... A bicycle rider.
- 1:30 Get up on your feet. All right, but take it easy. Muggs, you know I'm your pal. Just throw a few jabs at me. That's what I got to rehearse with. All right, take it easy, though. Thank you.
- 1:37 Come on! Hey!
- 1:39 Hey, cut out the fisticuffs, especially you, mother!
- 1:42 - What?
- 1:44 I want to rehearse a little more. He's got a very important fight tomorrow night. Yeah, yeah, I know, but listen here. There's a brand new pool player down at Nick's.
- 1:50 Boy, he's just loaded with that stuff called money. And, buddy, he's just dying for somebody to come and take it away from him.
- 1:56 Easy pickin', son. Yes, ma'am.
- 1:58 What's the lad's name? I didn't get his name, but it sounded like something like Harry somebody. Look, I want you to go in and fight a couple more rounds.
- 2:05 Yeah, yeah, what's your shape tomorrow night? Muggs is in great shape. You're in great shape, aren't you, Muggs? Get up, cock. I am the manager. I'll tell him when he's in shape.
- 2:11 Quit the goggle in, Glimpy.
- 2:12 The fight's tomorrow night. The ready cash is waiting now. Besides, the fighter needs some rest and relaxation, don't he? Boys, get my pool room formal. Why don't you put on your socks? No, Chiffon.

- 2:21 Hey!
- 2:22 Danny's got that phony chalk.
- 2:24 Where is Danny, anyway? You ought to know Ivy's your sister. First thing you know, Danny will be your brother-in-law.
- 2:29 Mm-hmm.
- 2:31 Anybody that marries my sister has to lick me first.
- 2:51 Why don't you put this in your routine?
- 2:53 Hey, Danny!
- 2:57 Hey, what's cooking up there? Baby's up there doing a Kazatsky with your sister. Kazatsky, my front plates. Hey, Danny!
- 3:04 How you doing? I think so. It'll be good. Let's try it.
- 3:16 What's brewing up there? - Hi, Mons. - Hi, fellas. - Hi, hi, hi. - Hi, hi. - I'm just practicing up for the big dance carnage. Come on up and watch us. - No, Pablo, will you come down? I want to practice up on you a little bit. - Okay. - I'll be right down. - Yeah. - I'll leave Ivy there.
- 3:32 Boy's got a brilliant future. Swell fellow.
- 3:35 We'll have to finish our practicing later, Ivy. I gotta go with the fellas.
- 3:38 Okay, Danny. So long.
- 3:42 I wonder what's keeping that great hero I heard so much about.
- 3:45 He'll be here.
- 3:47 Muggers can hear that money jingle in your pockets miles away.
- 3:53 Hey, Mots!
- 3:54 Get a load of that.
- 3:55 Don't cover it up.
- 3:57 That's the way I like to see it. My name first. Yeah, but that makes you the challenger.
- 4:01 The natural porn point killer, ain't ya? You know, my father once had his name on a thing like that. Yeah, I want it. Dead or alive. Reward. Two cents.
- 4:08 Hey, Munch! Munch! The man was in there waiting.
- 4:10 Pardon me, Slim.
- 4:13 He sure looks anxious.
- 4:15 You got that short, Danny?
- 4:17 Yeah, but you won't need it much. You can beat them on the level. There's no percentage in that. When I give you the signal, you change that shock.
- 4:26 Hi, Nick. How's the stress fun? Hello, boys.
- 4:29 What is, sucker?
- 4:30 So you're the champ around here, huh? It's me. How'd you like a few lessons? I might condescend if you could find a point in the game for a nominal consideration. Yeah, even for money.
- 4:38 Your line of chatter is very impressive, Jack. The name is Muggs.
- 4:42 I'm sorry.
- 4:43 Mugs.
- 4:45 What do you say we just play a nice sociable game for about five bucks?
- 4:49 What are you gonna use for money? Cigar store coupons?
- 4:51 You'll have to talk to my treasurer about that.
- 4:53 Don't worry, Elsie. Did you get your money?
- 4:55 - What am I saying? - Go ahead, grab a cube.
- 4:57 I don't need no cue, I'll kick him in.
- 4:59 Hey, it's Bruno.
- 5:00 Get my weapon.
- 5:01 Stop.
- 5:03 Don't forget, when I give you the high sign, remember that chalk.
- 5:06 All right. This'll be brutal.
- 5:13 I don't want no handicaps. Let's toss for the break. Sure. Okay, uh...
- 5:18 Got a coin. Nothing but big bills here.
- 5:22 What do you cry? Heads.
- 5:25 You break.
- 5:26 Did I say heads? Yeah, you said heads.
- 5:28 It's artillery mugs.
- 5:29 Thank you. Sure.
- 5:31 Watch this shot. Little safety. I thought Greenleaf.
- 5:36 Whistling.
- 5:38 Whistling
- 5:40 Go ahead.
- 5:40 Cute, mister.
- 5:53 That's a great shot. Where'd you learn that one?
- 5:55 You'd better get that dough ready, McGinnis.
- 5:57 I think these next four balls, you're through.
- 5:59 You ain't got 'em yet.
- 6:04 Come on.
- 6:09 What are you stalling for?
- 6:11 His luck will run out too much.
- 6:13 Then he can win on the level.
- 6:14 Don't give me that routine.
- 6:16 Change that chook as best as you can.
- 6:19 Nice stroke, kid.
- 6:21 You know.
- 6:22 Yeah? Where's it going?
- 6:24 Down the end.
- 6:28 - Up to Mystic, aren't you? - Yeah.
- 6:29 Come on, get clear, will you?
- 6:33 Oh!
- 6:36 Your eye on it, fellas.
- 6:39 Well, that's it.
- 6:41 Come on, pay off. Thanks, Danny.
- 6:43 I should make you pay to fly.
- 6:45 Come on, where's the dough?
- 6:47 What, though? That was just a practice game. That's all. Just a practice game, wasn't it?
- 6:51 Practice game, huh?
- 6:53 Pretty brave with this gang around here.
- 6:55 Come on, get that dough up.
- 6:57 What the?
- 6:57 The five bucks.
- 6:59 - You want the fight? - Yeah, I want the fight. How about these fights? Oh, shit, you're not in condition.
- 7:06 I'll see you later.
- 7:08 - How about my money? - Just put it in a book. I'll trust you.
- 7:11 Oh, my God.
- 7:15 Gee, I'm sorry, fella.
- 7:16 He just lost his temper.
- 7:17 Don't worry, you won't get away with this.
- 7:19 He's not so tough.
- 7:20 And I'll get my money too.
- 7:22 Don't that fella I'm fighting tonight fall up that easy.
- 7:26 Oh, forget about it. He's okay.
- 7:28 You'll get your dough.
- 7:29 Darn right, I'll get my dough.
- 7:31 Look at Danny in there talking at a pool shot.
- 7:33 A better record boost.
- 7:34 Hey, fellas.
- 7:35 Who's going to pay for that game?
- 7:38 Mugg said he taught you for it, didn't he?
- 7:40 That's right.
- 7:40 He did say that.
- 7:42 He's honest, that boy.
- 7:47 You shouldn't have hit him, Mox. He wasn't a slave.
- 7:48 Set.
- 7:49 It wasn't set, huh? Why don't you change that chalk?
- 7:51 Well, I...
- 7:52 Well, I what?
- 7:53 yelling. That's why you didn't change it.
- 7:55 I'm not yelling.
- 7:56 I thought you could win on the level.
- 7:58 And I'll begin to figure something out.
- 8:00 Why I won a championship last year and you were just a runner-up? Because you haven't got what it takes, that's why.
- 8:06 You weren't napped on the square, didn't you? I stopped beating around the bush.
- 8:09 I'm leaving, fellas.
- 8:10 Jellyfish is giving me indigestion.
- 8:13 You work me. The only thing I can't stand is a nerd.
- 8:20 What?
- 8:21 Dog racers? Now, now, we ain't got any more dog racers.
- 8:24 The rabbit eyes!
- 8:26 All right.
- 8:27 All right.
- 8:28 What's on your mind, kid? I got a tip for you, Tony.
- 8:31 You got a tip for me, huh?
- 8:33 You know the amateur championship fight tomorrow night, Eastside versus Westside?
- 8:37 Now don't tell me you're giving me a tip on McGinnis.
- 8:40 We've had to get us on a nose.
- 8:42 Yeah, but you're giving odds.
- 8:45 What are you driving at?
- 8:46 I suppose I tell you I got a way of keeping that McGinnis out of the ring tomorrow night.
- 8:51 All right, McGinnis don't show up.
- 8:53 What about the switch and the arm?
- 8:56 Find out that neighborhood and that Westside Kid Johnson.
- 8:58 Your money would be riding the town betting against the east side.
- 9:05 Sounds wacky, but...
- 9:07 Maybe he's got some.
- 9:09 Maybe he has.
- 9:11 Here's what I'll need for my end of the deal.
- 9:13 Three things we gotta get, see?
- 9:22 That's the one that's gonna get him off.
- 9:24 You know, this is just the way I'm going to look when I come home tonight. I'm touched by human hands. That's the spirit, son.
- 9:29 Sure you don't want to go, Ma. There ain't going to be no blood. Much. No, I think I'll stay and listen to the radio. Danny and I will be right there, Rootin.
- 9:35 You mean hooting for me, don't you?
- 9:37 Maybe a little late, Ma. You know, speeches and testimonials and stuff like that.
- 9:41 How about a little kiss for the lot?
- 9:46 I sure hope Muggs wins.
- 9:49 What do you mean, Hope?
- 9:50 McGinnis never lost a fight.
- 9:53 That's right.
- 10:09 Hold it, McGinnis.
- 10:11 - What's the thief, Chief? - Publicity picture. Oh, pictures, huh? Well, let's get a good pose.
- 10:15 Out from the bulletin, McGinnis.
- 10:16 I figured I'd taken a few pictures before you went tonight. You know, once you get to the arena, the newspaper men and the cameramen.
- 10:21 Why, they'll steal you right away, so I figured I'd get a couple in front of your house.
- 10:24 - That's for the news takers, sir. - Sure, the bullet.
- 10:26 See that sign up there?
- 10:28 Monk's McGinnis
- 10:29 -Buzz Hank Johnson. -Yeah? Well, focus that right in the middle of your lamp.
- 10:33 - Let's get a good picture. - Okay, anything you say, champ. - I'll show you how I'm gonna look after I win this fight. - Are you ready? Hold it now. - Well, I must my hair a little bit. - Okay.
- 10:40 Okay, here it goes.
- 10:42 Oh, when my mother sees that picture, will she be proud?
- 10:45 Hey, what papers you say you were from? Bullard, we'd like to get an interview. You know one of those things. Dynamite McGinnis tells reporter how he expects to knock out Johnson.
- 10:53 Oh, you mean kind of an autobiographical, huh? That's it.
- 10:56 - Mr. Dynamite. Say listen kid, I got a great idea. - Mr. Dynamite. - Mr. Dynamite. - That's me? - That's you.
- 11:01 Say, listen, I got a great idea. How about riding over to the arena in style on the company's jeep?
- 11:05 In the meantime, you can tell me the background of your whole life.
- 11:08 You want the dramatic highlights or just the little personal touches? Anything you care to say. All right, that's great. We'll start from the beginning.
- 11:13 Okay, step in, chief.
- 11:16 Arena, Joe.
- 11:24 Murphy Harris, same paper. Meet Muggs McGinnis, the greatest fighter on the east side. Hello, kid. What's new, shorty? Well, Muggsy, how about telling us something about yourself?
- 11:32 When I was three months old, I'd run away from home.
- 11:34 Six months later, I come back, my father took one look at me, and he went away from home.
- 11:40 Old Kitty assigned, when did you first start fighting?
- 11:42 I started when I was very young.
- 11:44 I won my first 18 fights by knockouts.
- 11:46 Then they put my brass knuckles away.
- 11:55 Hey, what's the idea?
- 11:56 We ain't going to the arena.
- 11:58 What did those flames sound for?
- 12:01 Haven't you heard?
- 12:02 The car's having a dim out.
- 12:04 You can't get away with this, Lemmy, you're...
- 12:06 Try to be more cooperative, champ. Relax.
- 12:09 We're gonna let you in on a little treat.
- 12:11 and there's 10 million people down there tonight that paid to see me fight. I gotta get there, you understand? Well, see, you'll fight all right.
- 12:16 But you won't be in it.
- 12:22 Amsterdam has a good right.
- 12:24 That was a pretty good fight, wasn't it?
- 12:26 Yeah, well, you see, the next one,
- 12:27 I can hardly wait.
- 12:32 Hey Danny, you want it in the dressing room right away.
- 12:34 - What for? - Don't ask questions. Just come on.
- 12:36 Go ahead.
- 12:39 That substitute of yours isn't here in three minutes, we're going to have to disqualify the East Side kids.
- 12:43 Hey, Glimpy, why don't you go in? Who, me? I'm not in shape.
- 12:48 Is that him? Yeah.
- 12:54 I'm not in shape. Uh-uh. I said that first.
- 12:57 What do you got to worry about?
- 12:58 You was runner-up, wasn't you?
- 12:59 You can't get hurt.
- 13:00 Look, if you're not in there within three minutes, we get disqualified. Take the clothes off. Come on, will you?
- 13:05 H.O.
- 13:06 Go out and explain to Ivy, will ya? Right away.
- 13:09 How long we got? Oh, about three minutes.
- 13:11 Come on, get out of here. I'll give you a rub now, fast.
- 13:13 Don't get it, my friend.
- 13:16 Ivy, Muggs didn't show up. Danny's got to go on in his place. Well, where is Muggs? He left the house in town. I don't know. We haven't heard a word from him. Maybe he had an accident.
- 13:24 Danny can't go in there and fight. He's not in condition. Oh, look, Ivy, it's only four rounds. He can't get hurt much.
- 13:29 - Not much.
- 13:30 He was runner-up last year, wasn't he?
- 13:32 Yeah.
- 13:33 Oh.
- 13:33 Turn on the radio, Joe. Save the electricity. That fight will be forfeited just like you guys want. Shut up. I want to listen.
- 13:40 the fight.
- 13:41 But, Christ, there ain't gonna be no fight unless I'm in there.
- 13:52 You all right, Danny? Yeah, I guess I'm okay.
- 13:54 Well, just don't worry about it. If anything happens, I'll be right in there without water buckets. Water bucket? What are you, an air raid warden?
- 13:59 Gee, I wish I was in there fightin'.
- 14:01 I shall never get my first fight.
- 14:02 Never forget my last fight.
- 14:04 Say fight.
- 14:06 Don't worry, I'm gonna win this fight. That's the spirit, kid. Just go in there. Keep swinging, keep swinging. In case you don't hit the guy, the breeze might give him pneumonia.
- 14:12 Ladies and gentlemen, this is the main event of the evening.
- 14:17 Four rounds of boxing.
- 14:19 In this corner...
- 14:21 And representing the west side,
- 14:23 Battling tanks!
- 14:24 Johnson!
- 14:30 And in this corner...
- 14:32 from Muggsy McGinnis.
- 14:33 And representing the east side.
- 14:35 Young!
- 14:36 Tiny lion!
- 14:37 They can't do that. They can't stop the fooling. Hey, get easy, Mr. Dynamite. You're not in the ring tonight.
- 14:42 I get it.
- 14:45 Danny said you guys to snatch me tonight just so he could fight.
- 14:48 Yes, that is. What's the matter, don't you think Mr. Lyons can win? Win?
- 14:52 He'll be hanging on those ropes so much tonight that people won't think he's a yo-yo.
- 14:55 Pretty smart kid though, don't you think?
- 14:57 - Yes, yes.
- 14:58 Yes, Mike.
- 14:58 Let me see.
- 14:59 He's been associating with you chiefs.
- 15:01 and I never knew nothing about it.
- 15:03 That's what I mean about being safe.
- 15:05 Smart.
- 15:08 You guys know all the rules.
- 15:10 Make a nice clean fight of it. Keep all your punches up.
- 15:13 In case of a knockdown, go to the farthest neutral corner.
- 15:15 Shake hands or come out fight him.
- 15:18 Hey, Rip.
- 15:19 In case Danny gets knocked down, which corner does he go to?
- 15:25 Well, this is it.
- 15:28 Keep your left up.
- 16:09 Boys move around cautiously
- 16:16 Watch that left.
- 16:19 Ooh, ooh, I was...
- 16:20 Oh, I wish you would.
- 16:21 Why didn't you get in there when you had a chance? Oh, and Michael let him not in there.
- 16:32 Come on!
- 16:39 Get in.
- 16:45 - Yeah.
- 16:45 If you listen to me, you'll be a fighter.
- 16:47 You know, you ruined my reputation. I'm sick of it, sir.
- 16:51 Get in there and keep feeling it. Keep your head.
- 17:00 Lines comes out, barely able to keep his hand up.
- 17:02 Johnson cool ready for the kill
- 17:04 Steps around smartly.
- 17:07 See that? Lion's jipped his way into that ring tonight. Now he's getting just what's coming to him.
- 17:11 But that ain't nothing compared to what's going to happen to him when I get out of this overcrowded bus.
- 17:15 Hey!
- 17:21 He isn't doing so well.
- 17:23 You come around once he gets used to being in there.
- 17:26 *Gunshot*
- 17:56 One.
- 18:03 June!
- 18:04 - Get up, get up! - What are you waiting for? - Come on, get up! - Five!
- 18:08 Six.
- 18:09 Seven.
- 18:18 - One, two, three, four.
- 18:21 Green.
- 18:23 No more like that and you'll be able to go home.
- 18:26 Eight, nine.
- 18:32 Let's see, Jeff! Hit him up, Jeff! Hit him with your right!
- 18:39 How do you feel, Chief?
- 18:41 Come on. Quick.
- 18:45 Look, this time I'm going to give him a left cross, a right cross, then give him a Japanese uppercut. A Japanese uppercut? Yeah, double cross.
- 18:51 Come on, kid.
- 18:51 - Go down.
- 18:55 Hey!
- 18:58 Beat him up! Come on, Danny!
- 19:01 any boy
- 19:11 Yes, folks.
- 19:12 Danny Lyons just seemed to step out of a tramp. Lyons lands a vicious hook to Wildcat's right eye.
- 19:25 Hey, what goes on? You got me. Give him a left. Give him a right. Give him a right.
- 19:37 Johnson is down! He's down!
- 19:39 One!
- 19:41 Two!
- 19:46 Seven.
- 19:47 Hey!
- 19:48 Nine.
- 19:49 Ten!
- 19:53 Well, can you picture that?
- 19:55 He must have hit him with a stool.
- 20:03 Now ladies and gentlemen, the winner.
- 20:04 Danny Lyons will receive the coveted amateur boxing belt.
- 20:07 It'll take you 10 years to work this off.
- 20:10 And you'll start tomorrow. Consational, champ. Oh, boy, you're really late. From the ringside. You hit that guy so hard with that bolo, they're still counting over him.
- 20:18 Well, that must be surprising. - Isn't that very surprising?
- 20:21 Mugs, where you been? What happened to you? I've been around. Don't worry. We won the championship. See, Mugs, when you didn't show up, well, we didn't know what to do, so...
- 20:29 I said, "All right, kid. My friends took very good care of me."
- 20:32 My friend!
- 20:33 What are you talking about?
- 20:35 Might as well tell you, fellas.
- 20:37 Danny fixed it up so he could fight tonight instead of me.
- 20:40 Well, Muggs, you're wrong. Well, I... Yeah, playing dumb, huh? Don't you figure this out all by yourself? I don't know what you're talking about. I wouldn't do a thing like that. No, you wouldn't do it, but you hired a couple of palookas to take me for a ride until this fight was over. No.
- 20:50 Hey, is he making with the truth? Is that on a level? What goes on? What's your wrong? You've got to believe me you're wrong. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know.
- 20:56 Incidentally...
- 20:57 His belt belongs to me.
- 21:00 Yeah.
- 21:01 OK, Monk.
- 21:02 What about the car and those guys? I know. You never heard nothing about it.
- 21:06 Of course you know I'm still champ around here.
- 21:08 Sure, most we...
- 21:09 Well, just to prove it... Hey, wait a minute! What's the matter, you? Now I'm going out and show to press the real champ. Take care of him. I've got to take some pictures. I will, I will. I'll take care of him.
- 21:20 I think Danny's coming.
- 21:22 I'm sure anxious to see him.
- 21:24 Come on.
- 21:26 Oh, Mum.
- 21:27 Hello, Mr. Gander. Congratulations, Danny. You were great tonight.
- 21:31 We heard the whole thing in the radio. Where's the belt you want?
- 21:34 Oh, the belt?
- 21:36 You won it, didn't you?
- 21:38 Yeah, I won it.
- 21:39 But I lost it.
- 21:41 Blast it.
- 21:42 Where?
- 21:43 How could you lose it?
- 21:46 I'll tell you all about it later, Mom. Sure, Danny.
- 21:49 Oh, by the way, one of my boys left for the army this afternoon.
- 21:53 You can have the job tomorrow.
- 21:55 Gee, that's swell, Mr. Gendrick. I'll be there first thing in the morning.
- 21:59 Good night, Mrs. Lyons. Good night. Good night, Danny. Good night, sir.
- 22:05 Danny, what about the belt?
- 22:08 Well, I...
- 22:08 I didn't exactly lose it, Mom. The East Side has it.
- 22:12 The east side hasn't.
- 22:14 Well, I gave it to Muggs. If I didn't, it would have meant a bra.
- 22:18 Mom, why don't you let me go out and teach him a lesson?
- 22:20 Danny, as long as I live, I will never have a son of mine fighting in the streets.
- 22:24 But, Mom,
- 22:33 Halt!
- 22:35 Hey, ladies and gentlemen, meet the new champ, Muggs McGinnis.
- 22:39 Muggs is gonna hit Danny Lyons so hard they're gonna count 'em out in the air.
- 22:43 He's gonna give him a mushroom nose, a cauliflower ear...
- 22:46 In fact,
- 22:47 He's going to make him the only kid in this block with a built-in victory garden.
- 22:50 He's so tough.
- 22:51 He told Joe Lewis where to get off.
- 22:53 He told Joe Lewis where to get off. Are you kidding? Well, they were riding on the same street cottage.
- 22:59 What do you say, champ?
- 23:00 It's a pleasure to stand up here and look down at all these smiling and intelligent faces.
- 23:04 Now don't you folks think the phony champ ought to come out and fight like a real man?
- 23:08 Yes.
- 23:10 Well, then call him.
- 23:11 Daddy! That's the matter with you. You're trying to make yourself conspicuous.
- 23:15 I'll call him conservatively.
- 23:16 Danny!
- 23:21 Take it easy, champ. I don't want you to bruise that hand. You're fighting next week.
- 23:25 Mugs McGuinness beat him.
- 23:27 Not till Danny comes down. I want to give him a little lesson in pugilistic art.
- 23:31 It's not working.
- 23:33 Working, huh?
- 23:34 baby carriage is he pushing now. Go and find out for yourself.
- 23:37 Go over to Lewis Gendick's garage.
- 23:43 Yendis.
- 23:44 Sir, that Mooch is muscling on my territory again.
- 23:47 You know how long ago I was promised that job? How long? Six months. 180 days. What are you going to do about it?
- 23:52 It ain't gonna be pleasant to watch. Give me the crown, champ.
- 23:55 Stoney, Skinny, take this back to Joe to pet him. Right.
- 24:02 Thanks very much. Come back again.
- 24:21 Hi, fellas. What's cooking?
- 24:22 Still crawling in front of me, huh? Last night you fixed it so I can't make the fight.
- 24:26 No, you'd take the job that I was supposed to have. Not in a million years, McGuinness.
- 24:30 Your memory must be depreciating, Gendick. You promised me this job. Sure, I remember. But when I put anybody to work around here, I want a gentleman.
- 24:37 Not an irresponsible nerdy well like you.
- 24:40 Since when do you call this double crosser a gentleman?
- 24:43 On your way, troublemaker.
- 24:45 Come on, fellas. The atmosphere is getting a little dense around here.
- 24:49 Why don't you two guys go play ping pong with a time bomb?
- 24:54 He was my son I'd give him an old-fashioned talking to.
- 24:57 Right over my knee.
- 25:00 Sometimes I can't frigga mugs.
- 25:03 I wonder if he could take the same kind of medicine he dishes out.
- 25:12 Yes, sir. Oh, it's you. Hi. Hello, champ.
- 25:16 What do you want, regular or Ethel?
- 25:18 What's so funny?
- 25:20 You cost me some dough last night, and incidentally, you can thank me for getting in that ring.
- 25:24 What?
- 25:25 You mean-- Yeah, yeah. I finally got eaten with mugs.
- 25:28 Cost me some dough, but it was worth it.
- 25:30 How many gallons do you want?
- 25:32 Make it three, and here's my ration book.
- 25:35 Don't be so gloomy.
- 25:38 Don't forget Danny's name is gonna be stricken from the record. He's out of the club intimately ultimately and forever.
- 25:44 Why not get his next year's dues first? I know, maybe there, huh? Never mind his next year's dues. He's out right now, presently, henceforth around.
- 25:51 Oh, you're a freak.
- 25:51 Amen.
- 25:52 Oh.
- 25:58 Check the oil.
- 25:59 No, here.
- 26:01 I'll be seeing you, champ.
- 26:03 I'm going to go.
- 26:10 Mr. Gandic.
- 26:12 Could I take about ten minutes off? Why, sure, Danny.
- 26:14 Thanks a lot.
- 26:18 As of the 15th Instinct of the Month quote,
- 26:22 Hurry, these four eyes off.
- 26:23 Yes, sir? I don't know. Strike it from the records.
- 26:26 I asked the president of this club, hereby alone, unanimously ostracize dandelions from this club.
- 26:32 And if he knows what's good for him, he won't come around anymore.
- 26:41 Hey, chairman and arms, see who that is. Maybe somebody trying to break the lease.
- 26:45 Now, what all the good news comes a little bad... Hey, Mark! It's Danny!
- 26:49 Never heard him.
- 26:50 I've just been advised that Moe's would not enjoy the pleasure of your company. Well, I'm still a member of this gang.
- 26:57 I told you not to let him in here. I don't second front. Listen to me, Muggs, and the rest of you fellas. What'd you do, come over here to cry on my shoulders?
- 27:04 I didn't come down here to cry on anybody's shoulder.
- 27:07 I have an idea that Harry Wyckoff was behind that whole mess last night.
- 27:10 Sure he was.
- 27:11 You and Harry work together.
- 27:12 Oh, you're crazy. Well, the last time I saw Harry was at the... Was at the pool room.
- 27:17 And now I know why you didn't switch that short like I told her. You wanted Harry to win.
- 27:21 Well, Muggs, you've got to believe me. I'm on the square with you.
- 27:24 No, I think I know why you came down here.
- 27:26 It's been kind of heavy.
- 27:27 Ivy? What's she got to do with it? She's got a lot to do with it.
- 27:30 Just in case you thought I didn't want you two gone out together.
- 27:33 Well, you come down here and try to worm your way out of this thing, just like you're doing now.
- 27:37 Muggs, you don't even give me a chance. I ain't giving away no chances. And furthermore, stay away from my sister.
- 27:55 Danny!
- 27:56 - Are you coming to the dance tonight, Danny? - See, I don't know. Maybe.
- 27:59 Maybe.
- 28:00 Why, everybody's going to the dance.
- 28:01 Remember, I'm giving away 50 bucks to the best ambitcer jitterbug team.
- 28:05 Yeah, I know. I could sure use that 50.
- 28:07 Come to think of it, I could too.
- 28:11 - Okay.
- 28:13 Oh, what am I doing? I'm giving it away.
- 28:16 Hey, look, there's Klinkhammer. He's running for sheriff. You mean running from sheriff.
- 28:20 It ain't sheriff's assemblyman. And Ferry to Morrie ain't running. He's just champagneing.
- 28:25 I'm surprised a man of my ignorance don't know nothing.
- 28:27 Well, I'll see you tonight, Mr. Klinkhammer.
- 28:29 Okay, Danny.
- 28:31 Well, hello, boys. Hiya, Clinky.
- 28:34 It's Clinkhammer. Okay, sink handle.
- 28:37 Hey!
- 28:37 Weather clear, track fast.
- 28:39 Looks like a Mickey Finn with fuzz on it. Man, look at that head, a beautiful skin. Every time I look at it, I want to put it on my finger and I'll start bowling.
- 28:48 Very funny. Well, I suppose you boys all have your partners for the big dance tonight. I don't need no partner. I can win it alone. I got a dame that's solid, Z-O-I-L-T.
- 28:56 Hey, look, are you going to give Wes more of that counterfeit money? I certainly am.
- 29:00 Cl-Claudiff.
- 29:01 Why, my money's good. Always has been. Yeah, the last time you gave me a five Lincoln was Winkin'.
- 29:06 Well, look, boys, I got to go now. I got to pay a little social call on your folks, you know. Well, I'm off.
- 29:12 You're not kidding.
- 29:13 See you later, Clinky.
- 29:15 Clothes make demand. You've got a long way to go, son.
- 29:20 Step down, sir.
- 29:25 Yeah, Milky.
- 29:26 Keep the change. Thank you, sir. Hi, Mr. Sproul. Fine, all you fellas. Hi, Pop.
- 29:32 - Hi, Red. - Where you been for, Turkish fast? This is all getting a shine. Gotta look neat once in a while, don't I?
- 29:36 Take over.
- 29:38 Yeah, I'm only hip to what you're talking about. Hey, Jackson, you know that shop you just shined up? Yeah.
- 29:43 Who's that big colloca he's talking to with Nancy?
- 29:45 He's a friend of my boss. He works here.
- 29:47 Hey Mugs, maybe Danny was right.
- 29:49 Sure, maybe he was right, but that still don't prove he didn't have nothing to do with it.
- 29:53 Look, you kids.
- 29:54 If anything is cooking on your brains, don't do it around here.
- 29:57 And for you, Molly Lee Clips,
- 29:59 You take over while I go home and see your mama.
- 30:02 Give me a shine, boy. - Look at that, Pop. I'm allergic to this pot. Hey, boy, give me a shine.
- 30:07 He's your son.
- 30:08 I'll polish you off, but quick if you don't get out of that chair.
- 30:12 Oh, my.
- 30:14 See you came around to pay off a little bull dead, huh? Yeah, we came around to pay off, all right.
- 30:19 What do you want?
- 30:20 Where's that young elephant you was just talking to?
- 30:22 I didn't see nobody.
- 30:24 You got a stigmatism, huh?
- 30:26 Stay in much protection lately, Wyckoff?
- 30:29 What's it to you?
- 30:30 Oh, nothing.
- 30:31 Nothing at all.
- 30:32 How much did you lose on the fight last night?
- 30:35 I think you lost a little more than I did, huh?
- 30:37 How would you like to lose consciousness?
- 30:39 What's the matter? Can't you take a little rib?
- 30:41 Maybe laughing boy knows little about this, huh?
- 30:43 Look, fellas, this ain't no pool hole. Now get out of here before I call the cops.
- 30:47 Call the cops? That's a funny one. Go ahead and call them.
- 30:50 We'll lead him right into that back room there and let him place a couple of bets.
- 30:54 And speaking of bets...
- 30:56 There's a couple of newspaper men back there that we're going to place a little parlor yarn.
- 30:59 But I wouldn't bet 'em the wind.
- 31:08 What do you kids want in here? Oh, we just come around to renew acquaintances.
- 31:12 Hello, kid.
- 31:13 No, kid.
- 31:14 So you remember me, huh?
- 31:15 I thought you'd try to say you was a couple other guys.
- 31:18 Amen.
- 31:18 I don't know what you're talking about. That lapse of memory. All right, outside. Get going. All right.
- 31:22 Sure, we'll get you on. You hear what he says, fellas?
- 31:24 Well, let's go. Give me the coal, Mr. Lickson, my boat!
- 31:33 I wonder what time the floor show goes on.
- 31:36 What's Hatchett's face doing up there?
- 31:38 Where's the judge? Must be out to lunch.
- 31:40 Gee, a lady judge. Next case, please, sir.
- 31:44 Benny Miller.
- 31:46 Joe Collins.
- 31:49 Harold Stone.
- 31:52 At Bert McGuinness.
- 31:54 That'll hurt McGuinness. They must!
- 32:04 Do people usually call you by that name Mugs?
- 32:06 No, that's because she's so homely.
- 32:08 I mean, tough.
- 32:09 Ciao.
- 32:10 Only my friends call me mugs.
- 32:13 I don't think you'd know a friend if you saw one. Oh, Miss Friend.
- 32:16 Thanks, Glenn.
- 32:18 I don't suppose any of you boys have got a job. A job? I worked once. I was a pen setter.
- 32:22 What is a thin session?
- 32:24 They knock 'em down, I set 'em up.
- 32:26 Gee, Judge.
- 32:27 Ain't you never both?
- 32:30 Stop them!
- 32:32 Sorry, Miss...
- 32:34 Your Honor, uh, didn't get much sleep last night.
- 32:36 I can't see no point in discussing Glimpy's career.
- 32:39 The issue is, are we going to the Hooskow or ain't we?
- 32:42 Whether I send you there or someone else does, eventually that's where you're going to wind up.
- 32:47 I can't understand it.
- 32:49 You boys are supposed to be good American citizens.
- 32:52 While our soldiers are fighting for peace,
- 32:54 You're disturbing it.
- 32:56 There's 101 things that you can do.
- 32:58 The fertile war effort.
- 32:59 And I'm going to give you a chance to do it.
- 33:02 Go on home and don't let me catch you back here again.
- 33:05 Here.
- 33:06 Thanks, Miss Judge.
- 33:09 Good morning, Scotty.
- 33:13 Where do you think you're going?
- 33:18 You said the case was dismissed.
- 33:20 The case was dismissed for them. They were brought in here for disturbing the peace.
- 33:23 You were brought in here for bookmaking.
- 33:25 This is your second offense.
- 33:27 How do you plead?
- 33:29 Killed it.
- 33:31 Six months each.
- 33:33 Next case, please.
- 33:36 I'll see you fellas later. I got a little date. Monks, can I go with you maybe, honey? No, this is personal.
- 33:42 Okay.
- 33:43 Hey, fellas, you want to go over to the pool room, huh?
- 33:45 Didn't you hear what the judge said?
- 33:49 Hey, I wonder where he's going.
- 33:50 Let's find out.
- 34:01 Hey, Betty.
- 34:03 I've had a change of disposition.
- 34:04 Yeah?
- 34:05 Yeah.
- 34:07 Hey, Muggs is talking to Danny. Hey, what do you know about that?
- 34:11 You can take Ivy to that dance tonight.
- 34:14 Thanks, I appreciate that.
- 34:16 That's nothing.
- 34:17 Not at all.
- 34:18 About that fight.
- 34:20 I found out about Wyckoff. Oh, did he tell you how much I paid him for the job? Right so you wasn't in on it.
- 34:25 There's a lucky break for you, that's all.
- 34:28 By the way, we're having a meeting tomorrow night.
- 34:31 Well, last I heard, I was kicked out of the club. Yeah, well, I kicked you back in.
- 34:36 See you later.
- 34:40 Don't wait up for me.
- 34:43 You're a nice girl, Patricia May, but we got it in common.
- 34:47 You can't even shoot a game of pool.
- 34:50 If that's the way you feel about it, you better hang up.
- 34:56 Guess that's the way she felt about it.
- 34:59 I hope Danny likes his dress.
- 35:00 Well, I don't see why not. He sees you in it every day.
- 35:08 - Good evening, Mrs. McGinnis. - Won't you come in, Dan?
- 35:12 - Hello. - Hello, Ivy. Are you ready? I will be in just a minute. Wait till I get my coat.
- 35:16 There's the dandelions to see Miss Ivy McGinnis. Prepare for a lull.
- 35:21 Very funny bit.
- 35:23 Do you expect to win that 50 tonight?
- 35:25 We're sure gonna try.
- 35:27 Well, you should know a couple of good steps by now. You've been practicing for 300 years.
- 35:32 Take me, for instance. I'm gonna win that Mizuma tonight, and I ain't had no practicing at all.
- 35:36 You're going to dance tonight, Mugs? Who's your partner? Anybody I know? I didn't know you went in for dances, Mugs.
- 35:41 I'm ambidextrous.
- 35:42 Tonight you're gonna find out that I can beat you with my feet as well as my hands.
- 35:47 Come on, Danny, let's go. Good luck, kids.
- 35:49 Be home early. Good night. Good night. Good night, Mrs. McGinnis. Have a good time.
- 35:54 Don't slam the door, Schlemiel.
- 35:57 I'm sorry, Ma. I don't like to be crude like that.
- 36:01 But that guy brings out the bad side in me.
- 36:03 Did I hear you say you were going to the dance?
- 36:06 When did you decide on that?
- 36:08 Just now.
- 36:09 A little spontaneous conclusion.
- 36:11 You might do me a favor, will you?
- 36:13 Press the shirt and block this hat.
- 36:15 You're not going to the dance in those clothes.
- 36:18 No.
- 36:19 No, I guess not.
- 36:20 Well, how about that outfit I used to wear when I was a choir boy?
- 36:23 I'll get it for you.
- 36:26 Quiet boy.
- 36:37 When a body be a body, coming through the rye. When a body kiss a body, and a body cry.
- 36:53 When all I see has a laddie seen these days, oh, he's old man. They smile at me when coming through the ride.
- 37:23 When the body...
- 37:36 - See, that band sounds swell, doesn't it? - Sure does.
- 37:39 Daddy, look, I can't believe it. It's Mutz with a girl. I wonder who she is.
- 37:43 - Marks, how'd you get me so fast? - We had enough of birth on Superman.
- 37:48 Well, I'll see you later.
- 37:49 Good luck, Muggs. You'll need it.
- 37:53 I want you to check this hat.
- 37:54 That's too much.
- 37:55 When
- 37:56 Come in.
- 37:58 Through the...
- 38:03 And now for the benefit of your life.
- 38:20 swing shifters,
- 38:22 That is, those of you who have to go home early.
- 38:26 We're going to have the amateur jitterbug
- 38:29 contest immediately now all those contestants will kindly come up to the table and get your numbers see we have numbers
- 38:35 put on your back, every one of you. Plenty of them.
- 38:37 Come on, folks.
- 38:38 Up to the table.
- 38:45 Dancing alone?
- 38:47 Hi.
- 38:47 Hey, Glumpy, are you in the contest? - Sure! I didn't know you were. You're the bug. Are you kidding me? And the members of my family have been bugs for years. Well, where's your suit go?
- 38:55 - Suit coat? - Couldn't wear it. It's got a hole in the knee. - Hey, look, you got a hole in the head. - We have a contest on here.
- 39:01 If she falls down, she'll be home.
- 39:02 Funny guy, he'd be there.
- 39:05 Got this thing just as good as one. What's the use of dancing a couple hours and expending all that energy? Good luck, Mike. I don't need no luck. This thing's in the bag. Yeah?
- 39:13 I hope there's a hole in the bag.
- 39:15 Your number.
- 39:17 I don't like that number. Give me the other one, will you, boss? No, it's no good.
- 39:20 That's my lucky number, five, five. That's the one. That'll-- You better be lucky, Musk.
- 39:26 You've been very pessimistic.
- 39:29 Okay, boys.
- 39:30 Let her go!
- 40:14 Hold on.
- 41:03 What do you need to borrow the property?
- 41:05 Dispose of that thing. No sooner said than done it.
- 41:50 Go get your old girls.
- 41:54 Come on, second front. Let's get some milk.
- 41:56 I was getting close to Pippa Dummer time. Old Muggs are sure a win.
- 43:22 That's too bad, Ivy. I...
- 43:24 Guess they were too good for us.
- 43:25 All right, sir. All right. Mug's won anyway.
- 43:43 Well, congratulations, Muggs.
- 43:46 Give me the 50 quick stammer.
- 43:48 I've told you a thousand times, my name is Cluckhammer, uh, Clakehammer.
- 43:51 Yeah, yeah, we'll overlook your personal difficulties. Shoot the foodie to me, snooty.
- 43:56 - Hey, come on.
- 43:59 Covered off.
- 44:00 No.
- 44:01 I don't like that looking, you're right.
- 44:04 I'm sorry, kids.
- 44:06 What are you sorry about? I won, didn't I?
- 44:09 Well, that all depends.
- 44:10 Young lady, do you work at the Silver Slipper dance hall?
- 44:13 Well, in a way...
- 44:16 And you get paid for dancing.
- 44:17 Yes, I guess so.
- 44:19 Well, that settles it. I'm sorry. I can't give you the prize money.
- 44:22 Ladies and gentlemen, quiet please. Attention.
- 44:25 Unfortunately, Mr. McGinnis has been dancing with a professional.
- 44:29 How did you expect me to win with an amateur?
- 44:31 I gotta have some personal handicap, don't I?
- 44:33 Will you please stop butting in when I'm interrupting?
- 44:37 Mr. McGinnis has been disqualified
- 44:38 And the real winners
- 44:40 of the East Side Amateur Jitterbug Contest
- 44:43 are Danny Lyons and Ivy McGinnis.
- 44:47 - Danny, Danny, we won! - We won!
- 44:50 Oh, Muggs isn't gonna like this.
- 44:54 All right, champions, come and get your money. You're full of perjury, you know that. I won that contest all by myself. I just used the slightest bit of assistance from this young, innocent girl here.
- 45:03 Muggs, I told you before, you're disqualified. That means scrammed.
- 45:07 Come on, Muggs. We had fun anyway.
- 45:10 Congratulations, Danny, and you too. Thank you. Thanks a lot.
- 45:13 - Well, half of this is yours, Ivy. - Oh, that's all right, Danny. You keep it for a while.
- 45:17 Okay.
- 45:19 I've been playing second fiddle of you for a long time, Lyons.
- 45:22 But you're gonna look awful funny playing a harp. Uh-uh. Now, now, no festercuffs.
- 45:27 Go part your hair, breakaway.
- 45:31 All right, everybody dance, and let the arches follow what they may.
- 45:50 I invented him.
- 45:52 You're a real help kid, Pop. Sure, man. Ah, Danny, congratulations. Both of you. That was a great step. Thanks a lot.
- 45:59 I'm sure sorry you got disqualified, Mugs.
- 46:01 I never saw anybody look any silly. Oh, cheer up, Muggsy. It's all in the family anyway. Well, the drinks are on us. What do you have? I have an Andre. I'm ready. What are you going to have, Muggs?
- 46:11 I'd like to have a few words with you. There are a lot of little things we gotta discuss.
- 46:16 About 50 of them. But I think we'd better do it in private. Okay, Muggs.
- 46:22 Excuse me, honey. I'll be right back. Yeah, he'll be right back.
- 46:27 Hey, Javier, it's too bad. You were disqualified. Professional jealousy. Well, you have kids. Clippy's mine. Already got mine, aren't you? Me too, Laminate. Just make mine water. I'm driving. Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.
- 46:40 Come on, walk over to 50. You've been holding it long enough. But Muggs, we won the contest. Technically, yes. Financially, no. Come on.
- 46:48 That's the scratch.
- 46:49 You were disqualified. Besides, part of this money is Ivies. I'll take care of the distribution. Come on, Danny, what's the matter? You'll get back to your lemonade. Just a little place, no matter. Now, come on, get it on the line.
- 47:01 You can't stand to lose, can you? No, I can't. If you don't give me that dough, I'm gonna felt you one right on the chin.
- 47:07 Now make what to take.
- 47:10 Don't do it!
- 47:12 Just because he's my brother, don't let him knock you around.
- 47:15 That money belongs to us.
- 47:17 My palm is itching and my left is raring to go. If you're going to get it up, I'll give you one more chance.
- 47:24 Okay, Muggs, if that's the way you want to.
- 47:27 That's just the way I want it. Half of that's ivy's, don't forget. I don't want any sort of them.
- 47:32 Wait a minute, Ivy.
- 47:33 I'll take you home.
- 47:34 I can find my own way home.
- 47:37 Spoken like a true McGuinness.
- 47:40 Well...
- 47:41 Come on, champ.
- 47:55 Hey, Danny.
- 47:57 Wait a minute.
- 48:00 You're leaving the dance rather early, aren't you?
- 48:03 I was getting tired.
- 48:05 Isn't everyone who take what Muggs hands out?
- 48:08 I'm not afraid of mugs. I know that.
- 48:11 - If he thinks you are,
- 48:13 - Do you ever think of joining another gang? - That'd be running away.
- 48:17 Not the answer that I'm talking about. They'll be glad to get you.
- 48:21 They will sooner or later.
- 48:22 You'll be fighting all kinds of bullies.
- 48:25 - Like mugs? - Worse.
- 48:27 These bullies are called Japs and Nazis.
- 48:31 You mean the army?
- 48:32 That won't be running away, Danny. That's real fighting.
- 48:36 They tried to get me and 17 but couldn't finish the job.
- 48:41 There I go, talking about that again.
- 48:45 We'll talk it over some more.
- 48:48 See you in the morning, Danny.
- 48:49 Yes, sir.
- 48:51 - Good night, Mr. Gandy. - Good night.
- 48:57 Then I met Mr. Kampnick outside.
- 49:00 Your father and Mr. Louis Gandic were very good friends. They fought together over in France.
- 49:06 I'll bet Pop was a good soldier.
- 49:09 One of the best.
- 49:11 What are you thinking of, Danny?
- 49:15 I'm thinking what a lot of us fellas should have done weeks ago.
- 49:20 I'm joining the army.
- 49:21 With your consent.
- 49:25 For that kind of fighting, Danny? Always.
- 49:27 I'm proud to have you go.
- 49:33 I wonder what Ivy will think.
- 49:36 Do you mean to say that Danny stood there and did nothing about it?
- 49:41 Muggs might be a bully and all that, but Danny doesn't even stand up for his own rights.
- 49:45 Well, it seems to me that if Danny had a little of what Muggs has and vice versa,
- 49:50 You'd have something.
- 50:00 You're still like Daddy, don't you, honey?
- 50:03 I suppose.
- 50:11 R-Q-O-P-O.
- 50:14 L-Y-Z-M. - Hello, Glevy.
- 50:17 Don't tell me you want to go to work.
- 50:19 Just give myself an eye test.
- 50:20 Hey, what happened to Danny? You fired him?
- 50:23 Quick!
- 50:24 What'd he do? Must failure go to his head?
- 50:26 He had a special reason of his own. I don't think you boys are going to see him around so much.
- 50:30 Okay, I'll play straight. Tell me.
- 50:32 Danny's joined a new gang.
- 50:34 No gang, bring them around, I'll rub their heads again, I'll make a bonfire out of them. But this gang's really...
- 50:39 touched.
- 50:40 Tough. That's different.
- 50:42 Who gang?
- 50:43 Muggs ain't gonna like this.
- 50:45 Fantastic. How do you make those hangers, Mark? Just practice, just practice, that's all. Hey, I can remember what time you kick-tog... Hey, give him all this! Don't move like I'll tell you! Listen quietly, listen!
- 50:53 Listen, I speak English.
- 50:55 Danny's left. He's gone away. Why do I care about Danny? Yeah, but he's joined a new gang. What gang?
- 50:59 I don't know. Gendick wouldn't tell me. Let's Gendick know about it.
- 51:02 Nothing.
- 51:03 Gizolli said it was very tough and they controlled the whole country.
- 51:06 I'm gonna get even with Gendick one of these days. Yeah, you always stick stuff with Danny. That's why you never got the job.
- 51:12 Tell you what to do.
- 51:13 You fellas scatter around, see what you can find out about Danny and his new gang of his, and come back here and let me know.
- 51:17 *whistling*
- 51:20 Come out of your tone deaf.
- 51:22 Don't be so gruesome.
- 51:31 Hey, Mugs.
- 51:32 What is this about Denny?
- 51:34 I'd better not talk about it.
- 51:36 Hello, Peter. What's the matter? Look what they did.
- 51:44 Murderers.
- 51:45 My parents.
- 51:47 What do I do about them?
- 51:49 Oh, don't worry, Peter.
- 51:50 Go over to the consulate.
- 51:52 He will advise you about this.
- 51:55 You mean to say those Nazis just walked in and snuffed out a whole town just like that?
- 51:59 Yes.
- 52:00 It was no bigger than our neighborhood from Mott Street to this block.
- 52:06 Hey, Nick.
- 52:08 Let's do this.
- 52:08 What are you doing, going to school or something?
- 52:10 Or this?
- 52:13 I'm studying to be an American citizen.
- 52:17 You mean to say you ain't a citizen?
- 52:19 Soon will be.
- 52:20 Soon as I know what's in here...
- 52:22 Is it very tough?
- 52:24 Some of the questions are easy and others you have to study again and again.
- 52:29 I don't see why you have to know all that stuff.
- 52:32 That's the trouble with you and the lot of people.
- 52:34 You take your citizenship for granted.
- 52:36 You should know all these things.
- 52:38 Just like you know the name of your friends.
- 52:40 I know the whole book from cover to cover. Go ahead, ask me some questions.
- 52:44 All right.
- 52:46 What are the first ten amendments called?
- 52:49 I think it's a good thing.
- 52:51 Better ask me another question. The book's full of them, ain't it?
- 52:53 All right.
- 52:54 You don't know that is news, so go any further.
- 52:56 The first ten amendments are called
- 52:58 The Bill of Rights.
- 53:00 Did you ever read them?
- 53:02 Not recently.
- 53:04 Well, the Bill of Rights simply means freedom and protection.
- 53:08 It has a lot of closets.
- 53:09 But after all in all,
- 53:11 It's like the fall of freedom the president talks about.
- 53:15 Hold up.
- 53:17 Those people must have kind of missed the boat on that set-up, huh?
- 53:19 Oh, but they will get those things pretty soon.
- 53:23 That's why our boys are journeying the armies.
- 53:27 You mean all those fellows used to come in here and shoot pool and...
- 53:29 All those guys that have joined the army, they know all about this Bill of Rights and Amendments?
- 53:33 Maybe not.
- 53:35 But in their hearts they know...
- 53:38 Like you monks.
- 53:40 I saw your face when you read that paper.
- 53:43 I didn't have to tell you about the Bill of Rights.
- 53:47 Americans are...
- 53:48 born with it in their hearts.
- 53:51 just has to come out.
- 53:53 Soon.
- 53:54 or later.
- 54:07 that you
- 54:08 Go on, monks.
- 54:19 Guess what? Guess what? What?
- 54:20 Danny's joined the army.
- 54:21 Danny did what? Don't you hear my voice? Danny's joining the army. Maybe he wants to fight now.
- 54:26 Yeah, I'm just in the mood.
- 54:29 What are you going to do?
- 54:31 - Good.
- 54:32 exactly
- 54:32 None.
- 54:44 What's the matter, Muddy?
- 54:57 What's the trouble, Muggs?
- 54:59 I've never seen you this way before.
- 55:01 What's wrong with me anyway, Ma?
- 55:03 Why say that? There's nothing ever wrong with a McGuinness.
- 55:06 Everything I do turns out wrong.
- 55:08 I'm always making enemies.
- 55:10 I don't like to hurt nobody more.
- 55:13 I always try to do the right thing.
- 55:15 Once in a while, I gotta...
- 55:16 Kick the fellas around the club a little bit, but that's just to show them on the leader, that's all.
- 55:20 What's the real trouble, Muggsy?
- 55:24 I want your consent to join the Army.
- 55:26 What brought us on?
- 55:28 Well...
- 55:29 Danny's in the army.
- 55:31 Strutting around like a peacock in that new uniform with the brass buttons and everything.
- 55:36 Look, Mara, I can beat Danny. I can beat him in anything. I've been beating him all my life.
- 55:40 If he's a private, I'll be a captain. I'll be a major.
- 55:42 I can still beat him.
- 55:45 If that's the reason you want to join, I don't think you'll make a good soldier.
- 55:51 That's not the reason, Mark.
- 55:53 There's other reasons I can't explain them. Just give me your consent, will you?
- 55:56 No.
- 55:57 Not until you draft it or I think you really want to fight for your country and not just to show Danny a fight.
- 56:10 Amen.
- 56:16 The mugs never kept you away from Ivy.
- 56:19 No, and he won't be able to after tonight.
- 56:23 More ways than one.
- 56:25 Look, Mom.
- 56:27 An engagement ring.
- 56:29 Pretty, isn't it?
- 56:31 I knew someday you and Ivy would.
- 56:33 Does she know?
- 56:35 No, I...
- 56:36 I didn't know whether to tell Muggs first or...
- 56:40 Tell Mibes.
- 56:42 Get on your feet, soldier.
- 56:44 Now you listen to me, Daniel.
- 56:47 You're a man now.
- 56:49 Sooner or later Muggs McGuinness is going to find this out.
- 56:52 You go and give that ring to Ivy.
- 56:55 and forget about mother.
- 56:58 Thanks, Mom.
- 57:15 Hey, wait a minute, you cheated.
- 57:17 How can you win a game of solitaire without cheating?
- 57:20 - At least one. - Hey, hey, hey! I seen him, I seen him, I seen him!
- 57:23 - Quit those semi-hysterics. You've seen who? - I saw Danny.
- 57:27 In his uniform. He even saluted me.
- 57:29 Hey, wait a minute. What's the matter?
- 57:31 Come to think of it, he didn't have his thumb in the right place.
- 57:34 Where was he going? Towards your house.
- 57:36 She was, sir. Going to strut his uniform up in front of Ivy.
- 57:39 Where are you going?
- 57:40 Oh, I'm going to have a little chat with him, that's all. Wait a minute.
- 57:43 Danny and the army, you can't boss him around like you used to.
- 57:46 I'm still head man around here. You fellas follow me at a safe distance, and you'll find out whether or not I can force them.
- 58:00 Why, Danny! Hello, Mrs. McGinnis. When did you get back? Well, I got in about an hour ago. Oh, wait till Ivy sees you. Ivy!
- 58:08 Why, you look fine in your uniform. I think you've put some weight on.
- 58:12 Splendid. How have you been?
- 58:14 - What a surprise! - Hello, Ivy.
- 58:17 Brought you some popcorn.
- 58:18 - Oh, popcorn?
- 58:20 Well, I've heard a boy's bringing Orchid some candy, but...
- 58:22 and have a popcorn.
- 58:24 Well, I suppose you two kids haven't seen each other in a long time and you want to be alone.
- 58:29 Yes, no...
- 58:30 I'll be right back.
- 58:32 Oh.
- 58:32 In about three hours.
- 58:35 Come on, Danny, sit down. I want you to tell me everything you've been doing.
- 58:39 It's a long story.
- 58:42 Oh, you've got the wrong bag.
- 58:43 Well, what's the difference? Popcorn's popcorn. Well, there's a little more in this one. Oh, all right.
- 58:53 You know, the popcorn man told me you sometimes find a prize in these.
- 58:56 Oh, really?
- 58:57 Do you see it's been so lonesome without you?
- 59:02 For a chimney.
- 59:04 - Hey, look, I found one. - You see? What did I tell you? It's just like an engagement ring.
- 59:08 What do you mean, like?
- 59:10 It is.
- 59:12 You put it in there?
- 59:13 Uh-huh.
- 59:14 That means we're engaged?
- 59:16 If you want to be.
- 59:17 Oh, damn it.
- 59:26 Well, how romantic. How romantic.
- 59:30 Ah, Romeo and Cleopatra. Don't be obnoxious. This is no time for compliments.
- 59:34 Muggs, I want you to meet your future brother-in-law.
- 59:36 So when are you making the decisions around here? Danny and I are engaged. That's right.
- 59:40 I don't know how long this has been going on, but you're disengaged right now. Yeah, and I'll have you both to know.
- 59:45 What's the idea, Mugs?
- 59:47 It's my house, ain't it? I'll ask the questions around here.
- 59:50 Watch out. You'll hurt my arm.
- 59:52 Boys are downstairs. They'd like to see you.
- 59:55 Besides, I'd like to have a little talk with you.
- 59:57 Ivy can spare you for a few minutes.
- 1:00:00 Come on.
- 1:00:01 No.
- 1:00:02 Okay, monks.
- 1:00:11 I'll be right back, Ivy.
- 1:00:18 Hi there! Hi, honey! How are you? How are you doing? Hey, boy, do you look rude in that suit? Yes, sir. We really thought you'd join a new gang. No wonder Gunnick said your gang had a couple of million guys.
- 1:00:31 And they're all swell fellas, too.
- 1:00:32 All right, break it up.
- 1:00:34 Cut the gab.
- 1:00:36 What's on your mind, Mugs?
- 1:00:38 Oh, not much.
- 1:00:39 I just want to stop these boys before they start kissing you.
- 1:00:42 You know, I'm still head man around here, and I don't like to see the old gang bust up.
- 1:00:46 So I'm gonna give you a chance to get back in.
- 1:00:48 He's in the army. He don't like our gang. Well, heck, I don't. I still want to be a member.
- 1:00:52 I'll give you a chance to prove that.
- 1:00:54 How can I?
- 1:00:55 Kendrick likes you a lot, doesn't he?
- 1:00:57 Yeah, and he'd like you too if he gave him half a chance. I'm not interested in the old boy socially.
- 1:01:01 I'm just interested in those new tires he's got.
- 1:01:05 You kidding?
- 1:01:05 You're a nut kid.
- 1:01:07 And I need you to help me.
- 1:01:09 You want me to help you rob Gandix?
- 1:01:10 What for? But dough, that's what for. But Muggs, you-- you know-- Never mind. You may belong to a new gang, but you're still taking orders from me.
- 1:01:19 Okay, Mugs.
- 1:01:21 Anything you say.
- 1:01:23 Get a hold of Gendick and get him in a conversation. The main thing is to get him wait in the front of that store.
- 1:01:28 Suppose you get caught.
- 1:01:29 I got an alibi. And fight him or we got an excuse. Just tell him he looks like he needs a glass of milk or something. Take him down to McGillicuddy's.
- 1:01:36 Okay.
- 1:01:37 Take it easy.
- 1:01:39 Boys, there goes a chump.
- 1:01:42 What are you whistling above?
- 1:01:47 What brings you around here this time of night?
- 1:01:49 Well, I was sort of strolling and...
- 1:01:52 Have to get to bed early at camp. Oh, just the novelty of staying up, eh? Yeah, I guess that's it. Well, sit down, Danny, and tell me all about army life. Yeah, okay.
- 1:02:03 Hey, they're sitting down. They must be tired.
- 1:02:05 What's this?
- 1:02:06 Slug trying to do. I told him to get Kendrick out of there.
- 1:02:08 Looks like he's giving you the double cross.
- 1:02:10 Well, if he knows what's good for him, he's going to take Gendick for that walk.
- 1:02:13 Maybe he's trying to save his rubber heels.
- 1:02:17 You're looking well, Danny.
- 1:02:18 The army must be treating you all right. I've been feeling great.
- 1:02:21 I've only been in a month and I've put on 50 pounds.
- 1:02:24 Fifty pounds.
- 1:02:25 What?
- 1:02:26 Two in weight and 48 in equipment.
- 1:02:31 How do you like that? Danny turned stool-pigeon. So what? Gendix would have caught us anyway.
- 1:02:35 There's only one thing to mix that deal up.
- 1:02:37 I'm gonna fix that right now.
- 1:02:39 And we're going back to the pool room. I got a date with an eight ball.
- 1:02:42 You ever hear the old maximum, "Business Before Pleasure"?
- 1:02:44 Well, this is old business. Danny?
- 1:02:47 For once and for all.
- 1:02:50 Is the back of the garage all locked up?
- 1:02:52 Well, sure, it's always locked up at night.
- 1:02:54 You know that. I should know it. I used to work for you.
- 1:03:02 Well, I have to be running along now.
- 1:03:03 Good night, Mr. Yendick.
- 1:03:05 Good night, Danny.
- 1:03:06 Drop in again before you go back to camp.
- 1:03:08 I sure will.
- 1:03:13 - What's the matter? You got a hole in your memory? - I talked to Gendrick just like you told me to.
- 1:03:17 Sure you talk to me.
- 1:03:18 If you didn't follow my orders,
- 1:03:20 You've been an important job and you're hedged on it.
- 1:03:22 You weren't really gonna rob Gendrick.
- 1:03:24 You just wanted to get me in trouble.
- 1:03:26 Still the same old jellyfish, huh?
- 1:03:28 You must be crazy to think I'd help you pull a job like that, especially in these.
- 1:03:32 Look, I'm still head man around here, and when I say something, I want it done. I'm sorry, Muggs, but I'm through taking that kind of orders.
- 1:03:39 I think I can still keep you in line. I've been doing it all my life.
- 1:03:44 Here, Benny.
- 1:03:47 Is she kidding?
- 1:03:48 No, I'm not kidding, Muggs.
- 1:03:50 You've been asking for this for a long time, and now you're finally gonna get it.
- 1:03:53 Make yourself nice and comfortable so when you fall you won't hurt yourself. Yeah, you better be comfortable.
- 1:03:58 - Hey!
- 1:04:00 Hey, get it, Mommy! Watch it! Come on, stay!
- 1:04:06 How'd you like that, Muggs?
- 1:04:08 I love it.
- 1:04:09 I'm sorry.
- 1:04:11 Whoa!
- 1:04:20 Well, have you had enough?
- 1:04:23 Get it.
- 1:04:25 Yeah, I guess that fills the bill.
- 1:04:30 No hard feelings, eh, Muggs?
- 1:04:34 Eh...
- 1:04:35 I always said the guy that married my sister would have to lick me first.
- 1:04:38 And you've done it.
- 1:04:39 Sure glad it worked out this way, Monson.
- 1:04:41 Well, I'm not glad.
- 1:04:43 It's all right.
- 1:04:46 Well, we cleaned that place out. Now, what can we get some more? You know, that's a big deal. You know that. But I'm on the... I'm on the... Hey, well, look who's coming here! Look who he's here! All right! Boy, you look great! What are you boys doing?
- 1:04:57 Why are we taking this scrap metal down to Ginnick's garage for the salvage drive?
- 1:05:00 Hey, didn't they get Kendrick for the Army yet? Not yet.
- 1:05:03 Well, I'm glad to see you boys. It's just close cooperation with the armed forces.
- 1:05:06 Keep up the good work.
- 1:05:07 Too bad us guys couldn't make it. But we'll be in there with you next year. With Danny, Climpy, and I in there, the war will be over next year. Hey, good luck. See you in Tokyo. I'll still be Jody.
- 1:05:18 Hey, look!
- 1:05:19 You see what I see?
- 1:05:20 Oh, no, it can't be.
- 1:05:25 Come on.
- 1:05:28 Ivy!
- 1:05:30 Salute your superior officer.
- 1:05:31 Yes, sir.
- 1:05:33 Private lines, get in.
- 1:05:35 Yes, ma'am.
- 1:05:39 Boy, ain't this a swell army?
- 1:05:40 Where else could a buck-tripper kiss a second lieutenant and like it?
- 1:05:44 spite of all my objections.
- 1:05:47 I'm sorry.
