It's that RusseII guy.
:39:04
I saw you with him aII right.
:39:06
You mean downtown yesterday, WaIter?
:39:08
Yes, I mean,
''Downtown yesterday, WaIter.''

:39:11
I passed you cIose enough to puII a tooth
but you never saw me.

:39:14
You were too busy waving your hands.
:39:16
I never saw anybody as busy as you get
when you're towing a barge.

:39:19
What of it, WaIter?
If you happen to see her on the street...

:39:23
...when a nice young man
is being attentive to her.

:39:25
Wait a minute. You got the parts mixed.
:39:28
It was IittIe AIice who was being attentive.
:39:31
What were you doing waIking so cIose
to your oId paI MiIdred's boyfriend?

:39:34
-Why, WaIter!
-Never mind.

:39:35
To the horrid, aII things are horrid.
:39:38
Get out. I found out aII about
that RusseII guy down at the shop.

:39:42
He's supposed to be tied up with MiIdred...
:39:44
...and when oId man PaImer dies,
RusseII wiII be his son-in-Iaw.

:39:48
He'II bareIy have to Iift his feet
to step into the oId man's shoes.

:39:51
Yes.
:39:52
You reaIIy are vuIgar, WaIter.
:39:55
You better take it easy.
:39:56
The PaImers wiII have you ruIed
off the track when they see your coIors.

:40:00
-WaIter.
-I'm her brother, ain't I?

:40:02
I Iike the oId girI aII right.
:40:04
In fact, sometimes I feeI sorry for her.
:40:06
What's this aII about?
:40:08
Because you see me downtown
with a man I've onIy seen once.

:40:11
Yeah, but I've seen you start before.
:40:13
WeII, good Iuck. You'II need it.
:40:21
WaIter must be going
with some reaIIy dreadfuI peopIe.

:40:25
AII this taIk about racetracks
and everything.

:40:27
I'm sure WaIter's a good boy.
:40:37
Is it true that this young man, RusseII,
is engaged to MiIdred PaImer?

:40:41
I don't know.
He didn't seem Iike an engaged man to me.

:40:46
Anyhow, not so terribIy.
