Hello, Frank.
She here yet?
No, Mr. Thompson.

:33:19
You sure?
Oh, positive.

:33:21
I'll wait down here
at the bar for her.

:33:25
Well, now, here's a girl
you can always find
when you want her.

:33:29
I don't think
I quite like that.

:33:32
The innuendo.
I think I resent it.

:33:34
Bad taste.
I beg your pardon.

:33:37
But he won't need
the table tonight.
Why keep it for him?

:33:39
I realize that,
but I don't know
how to tell him about it.

:33:42
It's simple. Just say
I had to take the liberty.

:33:45
Say I had to
give the table away.

:33:47
But you don't understand.
He only just came in.

:33:49
He don't know yet.
Nobody's told him.
Then tell him.

:33:52
Tell him.
I should tell him?

:33:55
What do you want me to do?
Get stuck with an empty table
on my hands all night?

:33:59
Tell him
I took the liberty.

:34:03
The average fellow,
just because a girl takes
a drink now and then,

:34:06
right away
he jumps to conclusions,
won't treat her with respect.

:34:10
Well, I treat everybody
with respect. I have to.

:34:12
I'm on the public payrolls,
remember? I'm a checker.

:34:15
Aw, get lost.
:34:27
I didn't order this,
Frank.
On the house,
Mr. Thompson.

:34:30
Well,
what's the occasión?

:34:32
Have one with me.
You?

:34:34
I thought you fellas knew
all about this stuff and never touched it.
What's happened?

:34:38
Oh, nothin', nothin'.
:34:39
Only, you see,
I'm in sort of a spot.
Yeah?

:34:43
Well, I guess it's up to me
to break the bad news.

:34:46
You see, the headwaiter, well,
he went ahead and gave your table away.

:34:50
Wait a minute! I want it!
I'm waitin' for her.

:34:52
Where is that headwaiter?
That's just the point,
Mr. Thompson.

:34:56
I don't think she's going
to be here tonight.

:34:59
That's why he took
the liberty.
