:23:01
You should have seen us pack 'em in.
:23:04
They'd wait through six acts
just to see us.

:23:08
Top billing everywhere we went.
:23:12
I was born
brought up in Boston

:23:16
A city we all know well
:23:20
Brought up by heartless parents
:23:24
The truth to you I'll tell
:23:29
Brought up by heartless parents
:23:34
Poor guy.
:23:36
"Poor guy." If it weren't for Zeena,
they'd be saying that about me.

:23:41
Poor Pete.
Pete the geek.

:23:44
Ah, you're crazy.
:23:46
No. I remember that fella
when he first showed up here.

:23:49
Hoatley knew him in the old days.
So did I.

:23:53
Course, we pretended we didn't.
:23:56
- Who was he?
- Hmm? He used to be plenty big-time.

:24:00
- Mental act?
- What difference does it make?

:24:03
It's all smoked meat now.
:24:05
Just a bottle-a-day rum-dum,
and he thinks this job is heaven...

:24:09
long as he has his bottle a day
and a dry place to sleep it off in.

:24:16
There's only one thing
this stuff'll make you forget.

:24:20
- What's that?
- How to forget.

:24:23
- Have a drink.
- No, thanks.

:24:28
I, uh...
wonder where Zeena is.

:24:31
Waiting for me at the hotel,
I suppose.

:24:34
She's always waiting for me.
:24:38
Boy, you should have
seen us work once.

:24:42
I heard you were pretty good
by yourself.
