:35:04
- Isn't he a beauty, Johnny?
- For me?
:35:06
When I was your age,
I'd have given my right leg for one of those.
:35:09
- Can I keep him, Mummy?
- Yes, Johnny.
:35:11
Come along, let me take you home.
You'd have to take a taxi, anyway.
:35:37
I'm no magician.
I can't pick her out of the air.
:35:40
- I've done my best to find her.
- Did you try her home?
:35:42
Sure. I tried her home
and I found out plenty. She's married.
:35:46
- Married?
- And what's more, she's got a kid.
:35:48
- A kid?
- And her husband's gone to Europe...
:35:50
for his health.
:35:51
- For his health?
- He sailed three weeks ago.
:35:53
She ain't been home all day
and neither has the kid...
:35:55
and nobody knows when she'll be back.
:35:56
Maybe something's happened to them.
:35:58
And me picking a winner
for the first time this year.
:36:01
Blooie goes my 15%.
:36:03
Why, the next one I get I'll nail down,
if I have to marry her.
:36:11
What's the idea of sending for me in a rush?
:36:13
Hello, Taxi. How are you, darling?
:36:16
- What's wrong?
- There's nothing wrong.
:36:18
I got a swell new number
all lined up for you.
:36:20
I want you to start rehearsing it
this afternoon.
:36:23
Yeah. There's a catch in this somewhere.
:36:28
Hello.
:36:29
O'Connor, I meant to call you up
yesterday, but I didn't get around to it.
:36:32
Miss Jones isn't going to work
for you anymore.
:36:34
What's the idea? She can't quit me like this.
:36:37
- Who's that?
- Nick Townsend.
:36:39
After me giving her all this publicity
and working up a swell following for her.
:36:42
Do you happen to have a contract
with Miss Jones?
:36:45
- Do you have that dame under contract?
- Have I got a million dollars?
:36:48
I don't need no contract with my artists.
My word's as good as my bond...
:36:52
and I stand to lose a lot of dough
if she don't show up.
:36:54
You ought to see the drop in my business
the last two days she hasn't been here.
:36:57
I'll talk to you about that later.
Meantime, you just forget about Miss Jones.
