:20:07
Late for what?
:20:10
Late for what? For 48 hours I've been
knocking around in this cage
:20:14
all the way from Chicago.
:20:16
I'm seasick.
:20:18
Don't any of you guys ever inhale?
:20:21
Like being in solitary, only it moves.
:20:24
Fine thing, some two-bit operator
sends for me in his upholstered boxcar
:20:28
and first thing you know, I'm being hauled
all over the country like a side of beef.
:20:35
- This your layout?
- Yeah. I built it.
:20:38
See these walls? Bulletproof.
:20:42
In town it's neutral territory, even when
there's a war on. I call it Little Switzerland.
:20:46
What do the cops call it? They find me
in this town, you can stop the presses.
:20:51
There's ten vans just like this hauling
real furniture around. Here you're safe.
:20:56
That picture's ten years old.
:20:58
Relax, Darcey. Take it easy. Be my guest.
:21:01
Your guest? Ever occur to you that I could
also be your prisoner? Ever think of that?
:21:08
Yeah, I gave it a quick think.
:21:11
Maybe you'd better give a long think
to a guy by the name of Stiff Arm Sam.
:21:15
He once thought he could hold me too.
:21:17
Stiff Arm? The guy
that walks around like this?
:21:20
Yeah, with the blowtorch in the armpits.
:21:22
That's right.
That's my idea, the blowtorch.
:21:25
It must've hurt.
:21:29
It's against the law to carry firearms
in New York, Darcey. Right, Joy Boy?
:21:33
That's right. Here in New York
you gotta have a permit.
:21:36
- Nothin', boss.
- Yeah. It's beginnin' to figure.
:21:40
They tell me you've been operatin'
ten years in this town without a pinch.
:21:44
Yeah. Luck, Mr Darcey. Pure luck.
:21:47
I heard about the luck bit.
The thing with the lucky apples.
:21:50
The wise guys figure
that's two strikes against you.
:21:54
- Oh?
- Yeah.
:21:55
They say you gotta buy them lucky apples
off of some little old lady, right?
:21:59
And if something happens to her...
