:21:01
Then you went and registered this Davis.
:21:03
Anybody want me?
:21:06
- Are you Davis?
- Leave it to me.
:21:07
- Have you any money?
- Why, no, I haven't.
:21:11
Are you from the We Never Sleep
Collection Agency?
:21:14
I'm the hotel manager.
:21:16
Let me tell you something.
There's $ 1200 charged against this room.
:21:20
And if you move in here too,
I'll bill you for half of it.
:21:23
Say, what sort of a hotel is this?
:21:27
You move in, and you owe $600
right away.
:21:30
- Pay no attention to him.
- He's excited.
:21:33
I'm not excited. Gordon, you don't
have a dime, and you never will.
:21:37
All you've done is ruin me.
:21:38
Come on, Joe,
you gotta give him a chance.
:21:41
I'm sick of hearing about your backers.
:21:44
Yes? Speaking.
:21:46
Oh, Mr. Jenkins.
Yes, come right up.
:21:50
Joe, we're out of the woods.
My backer's on his way up now.
:21:55
Tell Wagner if he doesn't behave himself,
I'll buy this hotel and make him a bellhop.
:22:00
No, that's too good for him.
I'll make him a guest.
:22:03
- Your backer's really coming?
- He's on his way up.
:22:06
Just leave us alone for 15 minutes...
:22:08
Wagner told me not to,
but this is important.
:22:10
You bet it is.
:22:14
Well, what's the matter with you,
Oswego?
:22:17
I'm just a little disappointed,
that's all.
:22:20
You wrote and told me
you were a great manager.
:22:23
I am a great manager. A great manager
never puts his own money into a play.
:22:27
You were all so nice and so kind.
:22:31
I thought I was moving into
some sort of a club.
:22:35
Look, everybody does it this way.
:22:37
Every honest producer has a backer.
:22:40
A manager puts his own money in the play,
right away, you know he's a crook.
:22:47
Money.
:22:53
Mr. Jenkins, I believe.
:22:54
- Yes. Mr. Miller?
- Come right in.
:22:57
- This is Mr. Binelli, my treasurer.
- How do you do, Mr. Jenkins?
