: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...
:22:02
Could be like Samson
gettin' his first haircut.
:22:07
Look, Darcey. I got news for you.
You see these apples?
:22:11
I buy 'em by the crate
at the nearest grocery store.
:22:13
The wise guys want to believe
these apples bring me luck,
:22:16
it's two strikes against them.
:22:19
You know about psychology, huh?
:22:22
Yeah, I know about... whatever you call it.
:22:25
It's like your dark glasses. You put those
on, the boys sweat from here to Omaha.
:22:30
Me? I use apples.
:22:37
All right. Shall we quit clowning?
:22:48
I like the way this kid operates, yeah.
:22:51
Smart boy. Smart dresser, too.
:22:53
- You like that?
- Oh, yeah. It's rich.
:22:57
- He likes it.
- Mind if I try that on?
