128 beats in 77 sequences, cut automatically at shot boundaries scored on picture change, pauses in speech, topic shifts, on-screen text and cutting rhythm (each beat says why it starts where it does). Each is annotated by a vision-language model from four sampled frames and the transcript lines in it, as observations with evidence; anything the frames and lines do not support is left null. Machine annotation (Qwen/Qwen3-VL-235B-A22B-Instruct), checked automatically: quotes must be verbatim, names must be spoken, "visible" events are sampled to a second model. 128 of 128 beats annotated, 128 passed the checks, 0 flagged.

  60. 5:51 Oh, don't worry. If it's true, you'll get paid for it.
  61. 5:54 Well, doesn't Phil get a job?
  62. 5:56 There's no opening for him right now, but I'll keep him in mind.
  63. 6:02 Oh.
  64. 6:03 Hello. Hello.
  65. 6:10 What's the matter? Something slip up?
  66. 6:12 Yeah.
  67. 6:15 That girl was a wildcat.
  68. 6:17 She jumped out of the car.
  69. 6:20 Well, isn't that just dandy?
  70. 6:23 Jim Murray, the brains of our outfit.
  71. 6:26 Pulls a boner.
  72. 6:27 Here?
  73. 6:30 Well, it was too bad at that.
  74. 6:33 She was swell.
  75. 6:35 You know, ever so often you fall for a dame...
  76. 6:38 Some of these days you're gonna get in a lot of trouble.
  77. 6:43 It was so dark in the car, she wouldn't recognize me again anyway.
  78. 6:46 Where were you going?
  79. 6:48 Barry Wood.
  80. 6:50 Say, who's out there tonight?
  81. 6:52 Neck.
  82. 7:03 How's about it, Nick?
  83. 7:07 All Dutch.
  84. 7:08 Why don't you treat the boys to a drink?
  85. 7:10 A good idea.
  86. 7:14 Boys.
  87. 7:16 The house is buying a little drink.
  88. 7:17 Come on.
  89. 7:25 Yes.
  90. 7:27 Now I have a drink, too.
  91. 7:29 You're too young.
  92. 7:30 Sit down.
  93. 7:35 Hello, boys.
  94. 7:36 Well, Nick...
  95. 7:37 - Go on up and have a good time. - Okay, sure.
  96. 7:47 Yes, well, who'll tip them off?
  97. 7:49 Well, never mind that. Thanks.
  98. 7:52 Call up Nick and tell him to scram.
  99. 8:02 Good night, honey. Goodbye, you mean.
  100. 8:06 Well, okay, if that's the way you feel about it.
  101. 8:16 Joe. What is this, a pink tea?
  102. 8:19 What's the matter? You got a complaint to me? Well, you better talk to Jenny. Jenny.
  103. 8:30 Hello Nick! Hello Nick! How about you call Chris? Hi Nick!
  104. 8:35 Say, my Potterpuff's worn out. When are you gonna get me a new one?
  105. 8:38 Yeah.
  106. 8:39 Jenny.
  107. 8:40 Come here.
  108. 8:44 I'm going to teach you to be polite and not insulting to people.
  109. 8:47 I didn't insult anybody.
  110. 8:52 The customer is always right.
  111. 8:55 Get in that room. Oh, please, don't pay me. Get in that room. Come on.
  112. 8:59 Nick, the phone. What's the matter, trouble? Come on, it's Belle. Hurry it up.
  113. 9:13 Hello, Nick?
  114. 9:14 This is Belle.
  115. 9:15 Clean out Berrywood right away.
  116. 9:17 It's hot.
  117. 9:18 That's right.
  118. 9:20 Go to one of our other places.
  119. 9:21 Okay, clean the joint out.
  120. 9:41 Get going! Go look and look at inches of the plate!
  121. 9:45 Come on, get out of here.
  122. 9:53 Hmm, happy, huh?
  123. 9:54 Must have been a tip-off. The rats have run to their holes.
  124. 10:02 Come out, girls. It's the police.
  125. 10:08 Come on, come on out of there.
  126. 10:10 Come on.
  127. 10:22 A type of man who run the Berrywood Roadhouse must be exposed.
  128. 10:26 I want you to write an editorial.
  129. 10:29 Slaves and bondage.
  130. 10:31 Then get Bill to interview each one of those girls.
  131. 10:33 Get that true story.
  132. 10:35 From now on, our policy is a crusade against vice.
  133. 10:40 Hello.
  134. 10:42 Yeah.
  135. 10:44 Sounds all right to me.
  136. 10:46 Yes, get the rest of the story.
  137. 10:48 That girl Mary Lou just recognized a rogue gallery picture of good-looking Freddie.
  138. 10:51 He was a man driving the car.
  139. 10:53 A drink, that's all for him now.
  140. 10:57 Too bad there was the rogue's gallery picture of the other man in the car.
  141. 11:00 Roy!
  142. 11:01 Coming, boy!
  143. 11:02 Boy!
  144. 11:03 Gee, you know, Phil, Mrs. Smith says she's gonna throw us out of the boarding house unless we have our rent by next week. Yeah, can you imagine that?
  145. 11:10 See, I wished I could help you, but I just can't. Can't you let us have a fin? No.
  146. 11:15 Well,
  147. 11:16 How good are you boys? How good? We're a wow every place we play.
  148. 11:19 Let's see. All right, here, Hal. Go ahead, stay right there. No, no, all the way. When I jump, you come up. Ready? Right. Come on, get under me, Hal. Gee, that hurts my feet when you're not there.
  149. 11:32 Ready, Hal? Right. Ho-lee! Hoo! Whoa! Come on, Hal. Hold still. Hal, hold still.
  150. 11:39 That's what I want. Come on, Al. Who does that... Al, listen to me. Al, listen to me!
  151. 11:48 Oh, I get so mad.
  152. 11:50 Now how I'm talking here, get a...
  153. 11:54 Come on, little boy.
  154. 11:57 Well, what are you going to do now? Let's see. Wait, what? That's it. See, now he's losing his head. Yeah, but just a minute here. Come on. What are you grunting about? Why, you're breaking my heart. Don't miss.
  155. 12:10 Isn't that cute?
  156. 12:13 Oh, good job. What? It's slippery here. I'll tell you what, Hal. You get up on my back. Oh, now it's my turn. Yeah, I don't jiggle like that. Well, I'll find that. Don't run around. Just stand there. Are you ready? Wait a minute, Hal.
  157. 12:27 Wait, wait!
  158. 12:28 Oh, impetuous youth. Well, what's wrong here, huh? You're waiting till I count three. Why don't you say, Sheldon? One, two, three. Well, jump on three, Hal. Jump. Yes, but just a minute. How do I know which end is coming up yet? They'll both be up now. One, two, three. Well, we finally did that. Hey, what are you doing here? What's this over...
  159. 12:50 I'm sorry.
  160. 12:51 Now look at him.
  161. 12:54 Now, what's the matter? What's the matter why it's broken? That's what's the matter. Well, fix it and go up there. Oh, I'll fix it, all right. Okay.
  162. 13:04 Mm-hmm.
  163. 13:06 You better be careful. You know I'm up here. I know you're up there.
  164. 13:10 But you don't have to worry, Hal. No, why don't I, huh? Because...
  165. 13:15 I'm down here.
  166. 13:18 Uh...
  167. 13:24 I think I swallowed the toothpick, Hal.
  168. 13:28 Brother.
  169. 13:30 Okay?
  170. 13:35 Well, come on. I'm getting tired up here. You're tired.
  171. 13:39 Do you make any amount?
  172. 13:42 No.
  173. 13:47 There we are. We might. Alley!
  174. 13:49 Well, how's that, huh?
  175. 13:55 Well, that's all for tonight, Mary Lou. I think you're catching on pretty good.
  176. 13:58 Do you think I'll get the job? You bet.
  177. 14:00 I'll tell you what you do. Meet me for lunch tomorrow, and I'll introduce you to some of the girls.
  178. 14:04 All right. Good night.
  179. 14:13 I think the editor should have given me a steady job.
  180. 14:15 He will, as soon as he has an opening. Oh, sure.
  181. 14:19 When somebody dies...
  182. 14:21 I'm coming to the barber shop tomorrow.
  183. 14:23 Do you think you'll have a chance to see me?
  184. 14:26 Sure, if you want a manicure.
  185. 14:28 Oh, you're making a sissy of me.
  186. 14:30 with all these manicures.
  187. 14:31 You like them though, don't you?
  188. 14:33 Oh, surely I do.
  189. 14:35 See, I know a way I can make some money.
  190. 14:38 Bill, playing the races isn't a business.
  191. 14:41 If you really want to take a chance,
  192. 14:43 Why not get married?
  193. 14:44 Oh, we've talked that over before.
  194. 14:46 I don't want you supporting me.
  195. 14:49 I want a job.
  196. 14:51 All right, darling.
  197. 14:52 I'll see you tomorrow.
  198. 14:56 Hmm.
  199. 14:58 Manicures.
  200. 15:04 So--
  201. 15:04 Well, the soft hands you have, Miss Lee. You're better to touch you with, Mr. Murray. Why, how much do you need?
  202. 15:29 Mr. Murray, please, just a moment. Not so fast.
  203. 15:34 - The past three months. Hasn't got me anyplace yet. - Has it been that long?
  204. 15:39 Hmm.
  205. 15:41 - - Uh, manicure and father.
  206. 15:47 Oh, yes, Mr. Smith. Just a moment, I'll see.
  207. 15:54 I can give you three o'clock.
  208. 16:00 All righty, that's fine.
  209. 16:11 Oh.
  210. 16:13 So that's the reason I'm getting the freeze out, huh? Mm-hmm.
  211. 16:17 - Yeah. - Mm-hmm.
  212. 16:19 - Marriage? - Mm-hmm.
  213. 16:21 When? Oh, by and by.
  214. 16:31 Then what will your name be? Mrs. Philip Miller. Miller, huh? What's he do? He's a writer.
  215. 16:40 I write also. Oh, do you? How interesting. Chips. Oh, yes.
  216. 16:47 Good morning, Mrs. Dynford. Hello, Betty. Good morning, girl. Good morning. Good morning, Mr. Murray. Is everything all right? No. I've never had any complaints about Donald's work before. Let me see your nails. I'm just guessing it's down. Let's go.
  217. 17:05 They look all right to me. The trouble is, all work and no play. You had me frightened for a moment. I thought I'd done something wrong. Not a chance. Good morning. Morning. How are the appointment? Overall filled up today. Fine.
  218. 17:44 Don't you want some white under them? No, they're fine. Thank you.
  219. 18:27 using your head and forget about your hands. You'll be wearing bracelets on them. Yeah? What's that?
  220. 18:32 That thing has identified good-looking Freddy. The police are after him.
  221. 18:40 Where's Freddy now?
  222. 18:42 And my apartment. Good. Have dinner with him there tonight, will you?
  223. 18:47 And loved him.
  224. 18:48 Fine.
  225. 18:50 And when you get to the coffee...
  226. 18:52 I'll bring up some smoke.
  227. 18:55 Thanks a million, Mr. Murray. Come in again. Right.
  228. 19:00 Donald, will you watch the death until Miss Perkins gets back? Yes, I will.
  229. 19:16 Oh.
  230. 19:19 There's some girls out there and answer to your aunt. Send them in one at a time. All right.
  231. 19:24 Step right inside. Thank you.
  232. 19:27 How do you do?
  233. 19:29 Sit down.
  234. 19:33 I'm from out of town. I came and answered to your ad. Oh, yes.
  235. 19:37 You'll have to fill out one of these cards.
  236. 19:52 I would like very much to get the job.
  237. 19:56 I'll see that you get work. Thank you.
  238. 20:08 Good morning. How do you do? Sit down. Thanks. Suppose you want to fill out one of those application blanks?
  239. 20:16 I filled out plenty of these.
  240. 20:18 Well, maybe this one will be different.
  241. 20:20 Really?
  242. 20:24 There you are.
  243. 20:27 Well, I've had plenty of experience and I hope I get the job.
  244. 20:30 Or you'll be hearing from me.
  245. 20:40 Right in here.
  246. 20:42 - Hello? - How do you do? - Sit down, please. - Just fill out this application blank. - Yes. - - -
  247. 20:58 Have you been finding difficulty in getting work?
  248. 21:02 I'm afraid so.
  249. 21:03 I guess my manager's going to put me out.
  250. 21:38 What's the matter? Ain't you got any more cigarettes?
  251. 21:41 I ordered some. They should be up in a minute.
  252. 21:47 Hey, there's something wrong here tonight.
  253. 21:50 Are you stalling me?
  254. 21:52 No, why should I?
  255. 21:55 Well, you got me into this, Jim. It's up for you to get me out.
  256. 21:57 That's easier said than done.
  257. 21:59 Raps of this kind are tough.
  258. 22:01 Jim Murray can fix it. Oh, I'm not so sure that even Jim can help you.
  259. 22:07 What am I going to do, Bill?
  260. 22:09 Oh, get out of town.
  261. 22:11 I'm going to ship you out of the country until this quiets down. Where am I going to go? Oh, to Ethiopia, I hope.
  262. 22:16 Here?
  263. 22:17 Well, I ain't going. What do you think I am, a sap...
  264. 22:21 Oh, so you won't go, huh?
  265. 22:23 Why should I?
  266. 22:24 You're gonna see that I'm taken care of. Hello, Bill.
  267. 22:28 Why, hello, Freddy. What are you doing here?
  268. 22:33 Hey, you two look like you've been crawling.
  269. 22:36 I'm afraid of this guy, Jim.
  270. 22:38 If anyone picks him up, he's just young enough to tell everything.
  271. 22:42 You're mistaken, Bill.
  272. 22:45 Freddy's not the squealing type, are you, Freddy?
  273. 22:47 Of course not.
  274. 22:48 Besides, you got me into this, and if you let Nick handle it, he'd have socked the good and proper.
  275. 22:53 Yes, I know.
  276. 22:55 I didn't hit her hard enough.
  277. 22:57 Oh, no.
  278. 22:58 I should have thrown a punch like this.
  279. 23:08 Come on in, boys.
  280. 23:10 Take him away.
  281. 23:20 See you later at the club.
  282. 23:24 Nice work, boy.
  283. 23:29 Open the desk there and get me a cigarette.
  284. 23:37 Should we have a nice dinner? No, not so good.
  285. 23:48 Hey, why don't you marry the girl?
  286. 23:51 There it is again. We never can be ourselves. If we sit in the park, we have a policeman for a chaperone. And in the boarding house, we have four chaperones. Mrs. Smith told me today she had a nice housekeeping room on the top floor.
  287. 24:07 be swell. And if we're married, we can lock the door, can't we? You're right, darling. If we don't start now, we'll never get anywhere. I'll get the license tomorrow.
  288. 24:29 Phil, what was that? Oh, we're interrupted again.
  289. 24:37 Sounded like shots.
  290. 24:50 Get the police quick.
  291. 24:52 Olive and Maple.
  292. 25:00 Calling car number 21, car number 21, at Olive and Maple. Oh.
  293. 25:04 investigate the trouble
  294. 25:06 at olive and maple.
  295. 25:08 investigate the trouble
  296. 25:09 That is all.
  297. 25:10 Look, there's some people running.
  298. 25:23 Why the fella's dead, right? - What's up there? - How's that? - Can anybody help me? - Get out of the way there, then. - Shut the bar and phone out.
  299. 25:55 Yeah?
  300. 25:56 Yeah, I got it.
  301. 25:58 Yeah, I got it all. Now you get up here right away.
  302. 26:00 All right.
  303. 26:01 All right.
  304. 26:02 What'd he say? He wants me to come right over.
  305. 26:09 Jones is on his way now to check the story.
  306. 26:11 Adams is writing up the copy.
  307. 26:13 It's funny that that boy's always around when anything's being pulled. What do you mean?
  308. 26:18 I wonder if those crooks are using him for a plant.
  309. 26:21 He wants to get a job on this paper, you know.
  310. 26:22 Well, don't hire him. I don't intend to.
  311. 26:25 Hello.
  312. 26:26 Get me Jenkins.
  313. 26:28 Yeah.
  314. 26:29 Hello.
  315. 26:30 Yeah, listen.
  316. 26:32 Good-looking forest, but snuffed out.
  317. 26:34 That stops the leads of the big shots.
  318. 26:36 That Bollywood Roadhouse is just small potatoes.
  319. 26:39 There's more of those places around.
  320. 26:44 Who will be the next?
  321. 26:46 Give the public the facts.
  322. 26:48 They have a right to know.
  323. 26:50 Got it?
  324. 26:51 Yeah, that's all.
  325. 26:54 There we go. There. Do you like that toast? Ladies and gentlemen, I have for your entertainment this evening.
  326. 27:24 a very charming little dancer, Princess Susanna Kim.
  327. 27:29 YG?
  328. 27:30 The music.
  329. 27:32 Oh, that's funny.
  330. 29:10 Well, Jimmy?
  331. 29:12 For a couple of hot-shop partners,
  332. 29:14 We're not doing so bad.
  333. 29:16 There's four and a little over...
  334. 29:23 Come in.
  335. 29:30 Well, there's no need my asking how you came out.
  336. 29:33 What do you think?
  337. 29:34 I didn't even get dirt on me. You see, simple.
  338. 29:38 The boys are experts.
  339. 29:41 How about a little dough?
  340. 29:42 What?
  341. 29:43 He said a little dough.
  342. 29:46 I think the boys have it coming to them.
  343. 29:50 All right.
  344. 30:08 Oh.
  345. 30:14 No, I'm not handing out any orchids to you.
  346. 30:16 But you boys are going places if you don't get too ambitious.
  347. 30:20 - Ambitious, boss? - Hey, what do you mean?
  348. 30:23 You know what I mean.
  349. 30:24 Don't let the sight of all this money go to your heads.
  350. 30:27 That don't mean a thing.
  351. 30:29 Nick always gets excited when he sees a lot of money.
  352. 30:33 Okay, don't forget what I said.
  353. 30:36 That's all.
  354. 30:37 Good night.
  355. 30:38 Good night.
  356. 30:39 Good night.
  357. 30:43 How about a drink?
  358. 31:08 Why should Murray and Bell have all that dough?
  359. 31:13 on that table. Yeah. And we want to figure out some way to cut in on their racket right now. You took the words right out of my mouth.
  360. 31:42 I don't know what you're craven about.
  361. 31:44 We're making plenty of money.
  362. 31:46 Man's got to have a little fun once in a while.
  363. 31:49 Oh, I don't mind the fun.
  364. 31:51 But I think you're fooling around with the wrong girl.
  365. 31:54 None of those manicurists know any of our business.
  366. 31:57 All right, all right.
  367. 32:01 Say, Bill.
  368. 32:02 What do you know about this boy that Donna's gonna marry? Uh, Miller. Miller.
  369. 32:07 Oh, not much.
  370. 32:09 He's trying to get a newspaper job and he plays the races a little down at Tuffy's booking office.
  371. 32:15 Oh, I see.
  372. 32:16 Trying to make a killing with a two dollar bill, huh?
  373. 32:21 Jim, that reminds me.
  374. 32:23 We have 20 grand of marked money.
  375. 32:27 I wish we could unload it. Not a chance. Not a chance in the world.
  376. 32:31 That money's too hot to put into circulation.
  377. 32:38 Stay.
  378. 32:39 Let me have a thousand of that, will you?
  379. 32:44 Oh, Jim.
  380. 32:46 If any of that hot stuff was found on you, it'd mean a long stretch in the big house.
  381. 32:51 Well, it won't be found on me.
  382. 32:54 I want to bet on Providence. The horse is scratched. Oh, is he hurt badly? Lady, the horse is scratched. Well, I don't care if he's got the itch. I want to bet on Providence. The horse is scratched. He won't run. I want to bet on Providence.
  383. 33:24 Say, what are you betting on? I'm betting on a Paulie.
  384. 33:27 Parley, Parley. I want to bet on Parley. Which more? Oh, just one. Coffin. Coffin? Well, why do you want to bet on Coffin? Oh, I have a hunch he'll win all the dead heat. Oh, I think you better save your money. Oh.
  385. 34:02 You better go outside and make that phone call. Tell those dicks to get here quick.
  386. 34:19 They're at the post.
  387. 34:21 No!
  388. 34:31 Gallant babe gets away to a bad start.
  389. 34:42 That's the quarter...
  390. 34:43 It's ten soldiers by half a length.
  391. 34:45 Fair Helen, second by two lengths. Tony Boy leads by a head. Come on, come on, come on. Oh. Pardon me. Oh, please, lady, let me dress him, please. Oh.
  392. 34:56 I'm going to go.
  393. 35:02 At the half.
  394. 35:03 It's Fair Helen by two lengths, Tony Boy by half a length, and System A third.
  395. 35:08 Coming up fast on the outside.
  396. 35:14 It's a driving finish.
  397. 35:15 Fair Helen wins by a nose. I win!
  398. 35:20 I had three dollars on this race. What horse are you picking for the next race? Not me, lady. I'm racing to get married.
  399. 35:36 That's in there. Second man in line.
  400. 35:43 Just a moment.
  401. 35:45 Take it easy, buddy.
  402. 35:48 Mm-hmm.
  403. 35:52 You'd better come along with me.
  404. 35:54 Wait a minute. I don't know anything about that. We'll see.
  405. 36:05 Don't, don't, Phil. I didn't mind if you played the racist. Well, I only wanted the money so that we could get married. Oh, I know, I know.
  406. 36:14 You know, I can't understand who put those bills in my pocket.
  407. 36:21 Can't the police trace that marked money? They don't seem to want to. They think that I'm part of an extortion plot.
  408. 36:29 Oh, so that's the reason your bond was so large.
  409. 36:34 The folks at the boarding house gave what they had. But that's not even a drop in the bucket.
  410. 36:41 Say, Phil.
  411. 36:43 Mrs. Harris that owns that shop, she has plenty of money. I bet she could help us.
  412. 36:48 Do you think she would?
  413. 36:49 Well, I could try.
  414. 36:50 Sign up. Goodbye, darling.
  415. 36:55 You know, I... I certainly need one of your manicures. That you give me.
  416. 37:02 I'm so sorry I can't help your darling with any money. I know it looks like that I'm rich.
  417. 37:08 But you don't realize the cost of running a business like this.
  418. 37:12 The payroll and the taxes and everything.
  419. 37:19 Hello? Hello?
  420. 37:21 Hello, Belle.
  421. 37:22 Jim.
  422. 37:23 John, I've shown up yet?
  423. 37:25 Yes.
  424. 37:26 Did she get the bond?
  425. 37:28 Uh...
  426. 37:29 No, she's busy now.
  427. 37:32 What's the matter? Can't you talk?
  428. 37:35 Yes, I can take care of you. How soon can you get over?
  429. 37:38 Oh, I get it.
  430. 37:40 Hold it there.
  431. 37:41 I'm leaving now.
  432. 37:48 Uh, Mr. Jones is the next appointment. Okay.
  433. 37:53 Where's Donna?
  434. 37:55 She's in Mrs. Harris' office. Ask if she'll give me a monocue, will you?
  435. 38:00 Jack.
  436. 38:05 Oh, excuse me, Mrs. Harris, but Mr. Murray's outside and wants to know if Don will give him a manicure now. Uh, send Mr. Murray in here.
  437. 38:15 Now, there's a man that can help you. He likes you and he's got scabs of money. No, I... I...
  438. 38:21 Hello, Miss Harris.
  439. 38:22 Hey, hello, Donner.
  440. 38:23 Hello.
  441. 38:26 Hey.
  442. 38:27 Why all the gloom?
  443. 38:30 The drama's pretty low.
  444. 38:31 Her boyfriend's in jail. In jail? In jail?
  445. 38:34 What for?
  446. 38:35 Oh, somebody planted some Mark money on him.
  447. 38:38 Marked money.
  448. 38:40 Gee, that's a dirty shame.
  449. 38:43 But they can't get away with that. Well, they are.
  450. 38:45 The poor kid hasn't any money for a bond or a lawyer.
  451. 38:49 Well, that's easily fixed up.
  452. 38:51 I'm having dinner tonight with my lawyer.
  453. 38:54 Suppose you come along and we'll see what can be done.
  454. 38:57 Well, I don't think... Oh, but...
  455. 38:59 get it.
  456. 39:50 Certainly I'm glad to see you cheering up.
  457. 39:53 Now you just forget all your worries and leave everything to Mr. London. He'll have fill out in no time. Oh, I hope so.
  458. 40:48 Here's a retainer, Lennon.
  459. 40:50 Let me know about the bond in the morning. Thank you.
  460. 40:53 I hope you don't mind if I leave you now.
  461. 40:55 I really have some briefs I must look over tonight.
  462. 40:58 Now, don't worry, Miss Lee.
  463. 41:00 I'll do everything in my power to help you.
  464. 41:02 Good night. Good night. Night.
  465. 41:35 I'm deeply grateful to you, Mr. Murray. Forget it.
  466. 41:54 I'm getting bored yet. Let's go up to my place for a while.
  467. 42:02 My heart's wrapped up in Phil. I've been thinking about him all day. I guess you are pretty tired. I think I'd better take you home. Thanks. Waiter.
  468. 42:18 Oh, Phil, I saw Mr. Murray last night, a friend of Mrs. Harris's. And his lawyer's going to try and get you out. Oh, he is? Well, he was here this morning, and he told me to plead guilty.
  469. 42:29 Why did he do that? Well, I don't know. But he said that from the facts of the case...
  470. 42:34 Didn't look like I had a chance.
  471. 42:36 And that if I'd plead guilty, I'd get out in two years and maybe less.
  472. 42:40 With good behavior. Two years?
  473. 42:43 Something you didn't do?
  474. 42:47 Did he put up the money for the bond?
  475. 42:49 No.
  476. 42:51 Well, Mr. Murray told him to.
  477. 42:54 Your friend, Mr. Murray, is giving you the runaround.
  478. 42:59 Don't say that. He's our only hope. I'm going over to the shop tonight to see Mr. Murray. And I'll see what this is all about. Oh, darling, you're wasting your time.
  479. 43:13 Mrs. Harris, I'm terribly sorry I was late. I was just over to see Phil. I appreciate your troubles, dear. But you're going to have to snap out of us and take care of your customers or I'll have to get another girl. Is somebody waiting? No, but you just missed one. Donna.
  480. 43:27 Yeah?
  481. 43:28 Mr. Murray.
  482. 43:30 Everything okay? Well, no. Your attorney told Phil to plead guilty.
  483. 43:34 Guilty, huh? Uh-huh.
  484. 43:37 Must be more to this case than we figured.
  485. 43:40 I'll get a hold of Lennon tonight and find out what it's all about.
  486. 43:45 Do you want to talk to him again? Oh, yes, I'd like to.
  487. 43:49 All right. Well, I'll pick you up here tonight when you finish work.
  488. 43:52 All right. Donna. Yes? There's a customer waiting for you in the barber shop. I'll be through at 6:00. All right.
  489. 44:03 Oh, hello, Mary Lou.
  490. 44:05 Donna, that man you were just talking to, he looks like the one who was in the car with me that night.
  491. 44:10 He couldn't be. That's a millionaire that's trying to help me get Phil released. Maybe so, but he certainly looks like him.
  492. 44:19 That's a terrible thing to say about anyone, unless you're quite sure.
  493. 44:24 Oh, Mrs. Harris, this is the girl I've been teaching to manicure. She's very good. Could you give her a job?
  494. 44:34 Donna, that customer is still waiting in the barber shop. I'll meet you at lunch.
  495. 45:05 Mr. Murray phoned you while you were out.
  496. 45:31 Oh, is it? Baby blue. Baby blue. Pink blue. Say this. What? And how do you make? And how do you make? And how do you make? And how do you make? And how do you make?
  497. 45:52 Thank you. I was hoping you'd remember me. Yes, of course I do.
  498. 45:56 I see your young reporter friend's in jail.
  499. 45:58 That's right.
  500. 45:59 Mark Winnie, wasn't it?
  501. 46:01 Mm-hmm.
  502. 46:02 Someone placed that Mark money on him.
  503. 46:05 I know exactly how much money he had. We were supposed to be married that day.
  504. 46:09 Why should anybody want to frame him?
  505. 46:12 That's what I came here to talk to you about.
  506. 46:16 Say, what's the matter with you lately?
  507. 46:18 You're always worrying and crabbing.
  508. 46:21 Listen.
  509. 46:21 I'm telling you that that girl is smart.
  510. 46:24 No, but I like them that way.
  511. 46:27 Did you give her the address?
  512. 46:28 Yes, she'll be here all right.
  513. 46:30 But watch your step.
  514. 46:32 Yes, mother.
  515. 46:37 Now, let's get this straight.
  516. 46:39 You say...
  517. 46:40 Number one.
  518. 46:42 You're a manicurist in a barbershop.
  519. 46:44 That's right.
  520. 46:45 The woman in charge is always advertising in small town papers for girl manicurists.
  521. 46:49 with no experience necessary. Right.
  522. 46:52 Number two.
  523. 46:54 Again, you say your friend Mary Lou recognized this Mr. Murray? Correct.
  524. 46:59 Number three.
  525. 47:00 I happen to know this lawyer, Lennon.
  526. 47:02 I don't trust him.
  527. 47:04 Maybe there's something in what you say.
  528. 47:07 We have no proof.
  529. 47:09 If we could only get some concrete evidence.
  530. 47:13 I'm going out to this place tonight with Mr. Murray for dinner.
  531. 47:16 I'll try to find out something more.
  532. 47:18 Call me up to get any real news, will you?
  533. 47:20 Yes, I will.
  534. 47:29 Oh, Downie, you look lovely. Thanks, Mary Lou. I do hope you can help Philip.
  535. 47:33 How do you too, Mrs. Smith? Good night. Good night.
  536. 47:43 Did you get a job yet?
  537. 47:45 Well, not exactly, Mrs. Smith, but we know what's wrong with the act. Why, sure we do. We were doing it too fast before. Yeah, we'll do it very slow for you. Just watch this. Come here, Hal. Get down on the floor. That's very slow. Watch this. Here it goes. Here it goes.
  538. 48:23 Look, Mother, aren't they funny?
  539. 48:44 Yes, it's...
  540. 48:48 Turn on the lights. Lights.
  541. 48:52 I killed him.
  542. 49:12 How was that?
  543. 49:14 Oh...
  544. 49:19 All right, let's get down to tax.
  545. 49:21 Are you in or not? It's pretty tough business, muscling on this Murray and Bell's racket. I'm in. They've been getting that good gravy long enough.
  546. 49:29 Well, uh... Come on, boys. Lay it on the table. Are you in or are you out? That's a deal.
  547. 49:35 I'm in. It's all set, huh?
  548. 49:37 Here's what happens. Tonight, Dutch and I run the floor.
  549. 49:41 You three come over and play around.
  550. 49:44 So Bell don't get wise. And when I give a signal...
  551. 49:48 We'll take the joint over. Right? Check.
  552. 49:51 Pay this.
  553. 50:08 I was expected to meet Mr. James Murray here.
  554. 50:12 Has he made reservations? Why, yes.
  555. 50:14 This way, please.
  556. 50:37 Hello, Donna.
  557. 50:40 Why?
  558. 50:41 But Mrs. Harris...
  559. 50:43 Oh, don't be surprised. Mr. Murray just bought me this cabaret.
  560. 50:46 How nice!
  561. 50:48 Is he here? Oh, he'll be along soon. Take off your wrap.
  562. 50:52 I want to show you the place.
  563. 51:01 Please.
  564. 51:04 I want you to meet some of my entertainers. Oh, I'd like to.
  565. 51:13 What a charming place you have here. I'm glad you like it.
  566. 51:20 Donna?
  567. 51:22 This is Rosie. How do you do? How do you do, Rosie?
  568. 51:25 The world acclaims her as their most beautiful brunette
  569. 51:34 And Lillian.
  570. 51:36 - Donna. - Hello, Lillian. How do you do?
  571. 51:38 Our blonde Venus.
  572. 51:46 And you can always find Nellie around the cocktail bar.
  573. 51:50 Nellie.
  574. 51:51 I'd like to introduce Donovan.
  575. 51:53 - Hello. - Hello, Nellie.
  576. 51:55 She's won everything in beauty prizes all over the United States.
  577. 51:59 How nice!
  578. 52:05 Now,
  579. 52:06 I'd like to show you our private dining rooms.
  580. 52:37 Now this is reserved for bankers.
  581. 52:40 bankers?
  582. 52:44 A haven for tired businessmen.
  583. 53:07 And this one is for lawyers.
  584. 53:13 And in this room,
  585. 53:15 The loathsome bachelor visits occasionally.
  586. 53:27 Hello.
  587. 53:29 Hmm, how are you?
  588. 53:32 Sure.
  589. 53:36 Okay.
  590. 53:38 Come on.
  591. 53:53 Now, isn't this a beautiful one?
  592. 54:00 And in this room, out-of-town visitors are usually entertained.
  593. 54:07 And in this room, the traveling salesman, uh...
  594. 54:10 Have you heard the story of...
  595. 54:18 And this one, this is our oriental room, reserved for the exotic.
  596. 54:23 And most of them are.
  597. 54:25 Ow! Ow! Oh, you rat!
  598. 54:30 Ah!
  599. 54:35 Oh, all right. You want to play like that? All right. That's one, two, four, nine. And that's my turn. All right. Not too hard now.
  600. 54:47 I'm going home. Oh, wait a minute.
  601. 54:52 There's an oil around here.
  602. 54:54 Uh, hello, miss.
  603. 54:55 May I call you Mr. Martulet?
  604. 54:58 Fappy?
  605. 54:59 I'm just a little guy that's never too late.
  606. 55:02 I think I'd better go home. I'll see Mr. Murray tomorrow. Oh, nonsense. Come on, girls. We're going to have a drink.
  607. 55:08 Not like.
  608. 55:09 Excuse me.
  609. 55:12 Paul!
  610. 55:13 I guess I'm too late.
  611. 55:16 I need them. I don't mind if I do. Mr. Murray will be home soon. Paul, you take care of them.
  612. 55:22 I'll be back soon.
  613. 55:24 Let's have a drip, eh?
  614. 55:25 I?
  615. 55:26 Backhander.
  616. 55:27 Two straight whiskey. No, no, mixed drink.
  617. 55:29 Mixed drink. Always drink mixed drink. Oh, no, no, make you sick.
  618. 55:34 Never makes me sick. Mixed drink.
  619. 55:35 Nothing that she said? Nothing that she said. All right, I'll mix it for you, huh? My friend, go on. Some whiskey? Yes.
  620. 55:43 Some gin
  621. 55:44 and some port wine.
  622. 55:46 Yeah.
  623. 55:47 Camel, camel, camel, camel. Now, now, now.
  624. 55:50 Here we go.
  625. 55:53 Open your mouth!
  626. 55:55 That's right. A little whiskey.
  627. 56:01 Oh, it won't be about a note.
  628. 56:03 A little gin?
  629. 56:07 And now a little port wine.
  630. 56:14 Supposed to be well shaken.
  631. 56:16 Now close your mouth.
  632. 56:17 Now hang on.
  633. 56:22 Now, swallow it.
  634. 56:26 Now, how do you feel?
  635. 56:28 - One. - Oh, but...
  636. 56:31 I must have forgot the cracked ice.
  637. 56:34 Say, didn't I meet you before?
  638. 56:36 Mrs. Harris's manicuring shop? Yes.
  639. 56:39 But I didn't do so well as a manicurist. No, you see, she's an entertainer now.
  640. 56:46 *crickets*
  641. 56:57 Now I know why I'm here.
  642. 56:59 What for?
  643. 57:00 There's a private dining room upstairs and a big party going on, and I'm invited.
  644. 57:04 Come on.
  645. 57:05 Can I have another mixed drink? Sure you can, and this time with a beer chaser.
  646. 57:10 Wonderful. Come on.
  647. 57:21 Do you think we'll have a crowd tonight? Why, of course.
  648. 57:25 The night's young.
  649. 57:26 I hope you're right.
  650. 57:28 Have Nick send me up some champagne, will you? Right.
  651. 57:34 Come on, girls. I'm having Nick service and champagne. Oh, I like you. Come on.
  652. 57:40 We don't got champagne open only when there's a gas.
  653. 57:48 Darling, get a drink. Come on, Jonathan, over here. Make yourselves at home. I'll be back in a minute.
  654. 58:02 Have a drink with the girls.
  655. 58:03 - Hello. - Stranger? Hello.
  656. 58:07 Yes?
  657. 58:08 The recruits are waiting for you from the booking office.
  658. 58:11 Okay.
  659. 58:16 Line up, girl.
  660. 58:22 Hello.
  661. 58:28 You girls can all dance.
  662. 58:31 That's fine. You know, our club prides itself on beautiful figures.
  663. 58:35 so I'll have to ask you to raise your skirts.
  664. 58:40 That's fine. Now, turn around.
  665. 58:44 This little girl on the end, just a little higher, please.
  666. 58:50 You check with the booking office?
  667. 58:54 You have your orders.
  668. 59:06 I think you might guess.
  669. 59:09 Good afternoon.
  670. 59:14 Oh, shut up.
  671. 59:16 All you gotta do is look at the kid. And you know she's too good for this place.
  672. 59:20 Too good, eh?
  673. 59:22 Oh, so she's better than I am. You better go home, kid.
  674. 59:25 Stick around, we're gonna have a lot of fun. Oh, go on, sit down and take a look off your face. Oh, stop it! It's drunk! I will not! No, later!
  675. 59:37 I'm going to help you. You're holding me back.
  676. 59:39 Ah!
  677. 59:42 Oh, you will? I fell pet, you!
  678. 59:44 My God. Kicker, kicker. Oh.
  679. 59:58 That's it, kicker!
  680. 1:00:01 Fight.
  681. 1:00:01 Ha!
  682. 1:00:04 Stop it. Come on, break it up. Come on.
  683. 1:00:07 Damn it.
  684. 1:00:08 Come on, scram.
  685. 1:00:10 You too, Nellie.
  686. 1:00:13 Please, Mr. Murray, take me home. Oh, don't be in a hurry. Let's have a drink. Oh, I'm sorry this had to happen.
  687. 1:00:18 I told Nick and Belle not to give these girls anything to drink.
  688. 1:00:22 We'll have dinner just as soon as Mr. Leonard arrives.
  689. 1:00:25 Sit down.
  690. 1:00:26 Well, I'm glad you came over, Chief.
  691. 1:00:28 We ought to work this thing out together.
  692. 1:00:30 That girl's story worries me.
  693. 1:00:32 From what you told me, I think you uncovered something.
  694. 1:00:35 We've suspected for some time that a gang is working the bull racket here.
  695. 1:00:38 This is how it's done.
  696. 1:00:40 Advertisements appear in small town papers.
  697. 1:00:43 Offering young and attractive girls work in the city.
  698. 1:00:46 No experience necessary. Mm-hmm.
  699. 1:00:48 Same old story.
  700. 1:00:49 Country girl comes to the city to get a job. Yes, but when the girl arrives, she gets a job all right.
  701. 1:00:55 But it's just plain housework.
  702. 1:00:57 Of course, a flint.
  703. 1:00:58 And they make it such tough drudgery that within a week she quits.
  704. 1:01:02 Now what have you?
  705. 1:01:03 A girl adrift in the city.
  706. 1:01:04 Right.
  707. 1:01:05 And you can readily see how within a short space of time...
  708. 1:01:08 These booking offices have got control over their victims.
  709. 1:01:11 And the rest is easy.
  710. 1:01:14 I'm going to run a series of articles warning the country girl to be careful as to what kind of ads they answer for jobs in the cities.
  711. 1:01:33 We don't seem to understand each other, Mr. Murray.
  712. 1:01:38 You look beautiful when you're mad.
  713. 1:01:48 So you want to play, huh?
  714. 1:01:49 No, I don't want to play.
  715. 1:01:52 Water?
  716. 1:02:00 You ready?
  717. 1:02:02 Amen.
  718. 1:02:05 All...
  719. 1:02:32 Ah!
  720. 1:02:55 - You all right? - You all right?
  721. 1:03:03 - Bill? - Some of the boys wanna have a little drink with you. - Oh, fine. New customers. - Uh, drinks from the customers. - Sure, Bill. - Can I have a seat, Ralph? - Oh, Bill. - I'll have you. - I'll have you.
  722. 1:03:16 Sure, Belle.
  723. 1:03:49 Well, Bill...
  724. 1:03:51 Drink to the health for your new partners.
  725. 1:03:54 What do you mean? Why, honey, we're declaring ourselves in.
  726. 1:03:59 Oh, so you think it's as easy as that, do ya?
  727. 1:04:02 Don't make me laugh.
  728. 1:04:03 We won't.
  729. 1:04:04 But you see, you and Murray have been getting all the cream.
  730. 1:04:07 Well, all we're getting is the skim milk. Sure, that's right.
  731. 1:04:12 Muriel has something to say about this. We'll let him come in if he wants to.
  732. 1:04:18 I've always had a feeling this boy was framed.
  733. 1:04:21 But I've been holding him to see what's on the other end of the rope.
  734. 1:04:27 Sit down.
  735. 1:04:31 Tell us.
  736. 1:04:32 How long have you known this girl down the leaf?
  737. 1:04:34 Why...
  738. 1:04:35 - Now let's go up the cocktail bar. - Fine.
  739. 1:04:41 I'll go get Murray.
  740. 1:04:43 Never mind, Murray. Sit down!
  741. 1:04:46 Oh, boys! Boys, get out of here!
  742. 1:04:49 Oh, my God.
  743. 1:05:04 Don't you come near me.
  744. 1:05:07 Let me out of here!
  745. 1:05:09 Let me out of here!
  746. 1:05:12 Go ahead and nail your head off.
  747. 1:05:14 This room is soundproof.
  748. 1:05:19 Well, it looks like Murray framed this boy.
  749. 1:05:21 Yeah, to get an innocent girl.
  750. 1:05:23 That's a girl I love, too.
  751. 1:05:25 You must get her out of there.
  752. 1:05:26 That's what we're going to try and do.
  753. 1:05:28 You better take him along, Chief. He's a good reporter. Come on.
  754. 1:05:35 Oh, my God.
  755. 1:06:05 Come on in there. What do you think you're getting paid for?
  756. 1:06:35 Oh, yeah.
  757. 1:07:10 Bye, Pulse!
  758. 1:07:11 We're down town.
  759. 1:07:16 Well, Bill?
  760. 1:07:17 Do we take the place over?
  761. 1:07:20 I guess you win.
  762. 1:07:21 Now you're talking sense.
  763. 1:07:24 Light them up, boys!
  764. 1:07:38 I'm going to go.
  765. 1:07:44 Philip!
  766. 1:07:46 Donna.
  767. 1:07:49 Drop that!
  768. 1:07:54 Come on, you. You're gonna join your friends.
  769. 1:07:57 Are you all right?
  770. 1:07:58 Mm-hmm.
  771. 1:08:20 Well, get him!
  772. 1:08:21 Quick! I want that story! Go out and find him!
  773. 1:08:24 I want to get the sweatshirt...
  774. 1:08:25 Ah, there you are. Where's that story?
  775. 1:08:27 Well, do I get the job? Yes, yes, you get the job, and I want the story.
  776. 1:08:33 Get up, boy! Get up!
  777. 1:08:34 Hey, hurry!
  778. 1:08:35 I want next on the street right away! Yes, right away!
  779. 1:08:38 Police capture ringleaders in vice racket.
  780. 1:08:41 Jim Murray and Bill Harris.
  781. 1:08:43 Call it by step.

  783. 1:08:47 - Racketeers brought to justice.
  784. 1:08:49 Yes, if you don't listen, right away.
