Whiskey.
:07:03
Come on. Eight years is a lot of gin.
They don't remember Velma.
:07:06
- Who asked you to stick your face in?
- You did. Remember me?
:07:11
I'm the guy who came in with you, chunky.
:07:14
Moose. The name is Moose.
On account of I'm large.
:07:17
- Moose Malloy. You heard of me, maybe?
- Maybe.
:07:22
They changed it a lot.
:07:24
There was a stage
where she worked and some booths.
:07:27
You said that.
:07:29
I'm beginning not to like it here.
:07:44
- Maybe I told you too much.
- No.
:07:47
- We was to be married.
- What happened?
:07:49
Where do you figure I've been away
those eight years?
:07:52
Catching butterflies.
:07:53
I put away a few grand before I went up.
:07:56
- You been in the caboose ever?
- Just a couple of overnight stops.
:08:00
Okay. You find Velma.
:08:03
- She got a last name?
- Velma. Velma Valento.
:08:09
- How will I get in touch with you?
- I get in touch with you.
:08:17
I spent a buck in another bar
for some history.
:08:20
Mike Florian ran the joint until 1939.
:08:23
He died in 1940
in the middle of a glass of beer.
:08:26
His wife Jessie finished it for him.
:08:28
Tracing her was easy. I could do that.
:08:30
A bright third grader
could have done it, but not Malloy.
:08:33
He needed a private detective.
:08:36
She was a charming middle-aged lady
with a face like a bucket of mud.
:08:40
I gave her a drink.
She was a gal who'd take a drink...
:08:42
if she had to knock you down
to get the bottle.
:08:44
That liquor's been keeping
the right company all right.
:08:50
Just hold it careful, mister.
This ain't no time to drop anything.
:08:58
What was it we was talking about?
