:22:00
So everybody lives
by chiselling everybody else.

:22:03
It comes to me very natural.
:22:06
If I live 500 years ago,
I guess I be a baron, maybe.

:22:10
A robber baron.
I live on a rock, chisel the city down below,

:22:14
and everybody call me Baron.
:22:16
Now I live in a penthouse
and everybody call me Boss.

:22:20
Everybody except you.
:22:22
- I got it. Bulletproof, huh?
- That's right.

:22:25
And if you think I'm not the boss,
you try and cross me up sometime.

:22:29
You got me all a-tremble.
I bet you're scared to death of yourself.

:22:33
All right. You asked for it.
:22:36
Then she says, "You and who else?"
And I says, "Oh, yeah?"

:22:40
And she says, "Yeah's right."
:22:42
So I says, "You and me both."
She says, "That goes double for me."

:22:46
I says, "Oh, yeah?" Then the operator says,
"Deposit 25 cents for three minutes."

:22:51
So I hang up on her. You let them
get an angle on you, you're a goner.

:22:55
- You said it.
- Are you telling me?

:23:02
(Woman screams)
:23:06
He was always a little muscle-bound.
I could beat him to the punch.

:23:10
Boy, we had some brannigans.
:23:12
I thought you said
you were the governor of a state.

:23:15
Yes. You was just a cheap crook.
:23:17
You gotta crawl before you creep, don't you?
:23:20
I collected chicken feed for a while, see.
:23:23
Then the guy makes me an alderman
and I move in on the second floor.

:23:28
Bus franchises, garbage disposal, nice stuff.
:23:32
- 100,000 dollars!
- That's what they tell me.

:23:35
Well, that's a confounded outrage.
:23:38
Even in the days of Bart Herman,
we didn't pay that price for franchises.

:23:42
Even in the days of Bathhouse Jake.
:23:44
Those boys were pikers
compared to this mob.

:23:47
(Laughs)
Ah, you don't mean that, Mr Maxwell.

:23:50
You gotta remember
that everything's gone up.

:23:53
Living expenses is higher.
There's an income tax now.

:23:56
You're dealing with a better class of man.
:23:59
I will not pay graft. Millions for defence,
but not one cent for tribute.
