: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.
:37:01
O'Connor's isn't a fit place
for you to be seen in night after night.
:37:04
Besides, you got Johnny to look after now.
:37:05
Who's going to take care of him
if you keep on working?
:37:07
You can't make enough money there anyway
to send to your husband...
:37:10
unless you meet another sucker like me.
:37:12
And there's another thing I want you to do.
:37:13
A friend of mine has left town
and his apartment is empty.
:37:15
I suggest that you and Johnny
spend the summer there.
:37:17
It'll do both of you a lot of good.
:37:19
What do you expect for all of this?
:37:21
Nothing. I like you, that's all.
:37:24
And I think you've got a swell kid.
:37:27
And I'm trying to help you both
out of a tight spot.
:37:31
There's no use trying to fool myself,
or you, Helen.
:37:33
I'm crazy about you, and I want you
to like me, too, if you can.
:37:37
You're making it difficult for me not to.
:37:45
Come on, honey, give me a little kiss,
will you? Just a little one?
