-l didn't bring you much luck, did l?
-You owe me 2 bucks.

1:02:13
-Two what? For what?
-lt's your commission.

1:02:16
You don't think l'd put you to work
for nothing, do you?

1:02:19
l'm not entitled to anything
for interpreting. l was happy to do it.

1:02:22
Listen, take it, $ 108. Ten percent.
lt's yours. You earned it.

1:02:28
Look, how in the hell can l earn $ 108
out of a total of 2200...

1:02:33
...and there was no profit?
l'm not taking it.

1:02:39
Boy, l don't know how you survived
in this world up to now.

1:02:44
Look, let's go through the facts of life.
1:02:47
Now, your gallant Maj. Prouty
is selling me a phony.

1:02:50
So he deserves whatever he gets.
1:02:52
Think he gives a damn about me
if the watch backfires?

1:02:55
Maybe he stole it, who knows?
1:02:57
Anyway, he asked me 1200.
Now, l asked Torusumi 26...

1:03:02
...and he settles for 22 because
he knows he can get rid of it for 35.

1:03:07
l give Prouty 900, less 10 percent.
1:03:10
And he goes home thinking that
he's taken me, so everybody's happy.

1:03:14
Now, as to overheads, l had to pay
$ 100 to get the watch fixed.

1:03:19
You know, so it shouldn't fall apart
in his hands.

1:03:23
Another 120
for various safety measures.

1:03:25
That makes 1120.
1:03:27
Now 1120 from 2200
is $ 1080 even.

1:03:31
Ten percent of that is 108.
1:03:33
l gave you 110,
so you owe me 2 bucks. Okay?

1:03:39
You worked for it. lt's yours. Nobody
is giving you anything for nothing.

1:03:47
No.
1:03:50
Well, cheer up, old boy.
1:03:54
Listen, on your way home,
you'll see Brant.

1:03:57
Give him his wages, will you?
