Tents they have to put up.
It's a regular madhouse.

:07:05
Lively times,
I can hear you comin'.

:07:07
Boy, you about to win
the fight of the century.

:07:10
Yeah. Or else lose
and be the nigger of the minute.

:07:18
- Jack, listen...
- Hey, what kind of odds going?

:07:20
Brady, eight-to-five.
What's the girl doing here?

:07:23
- She just lookin' around.
She don't bother us none.
- Lookin' around for what?

:07:26
You be nice now, Goldie.
Come over here, Ellie.

:07:29
Don't be shy now, hon.
:07:32
- He a friend of mine.
- How do you do?

:07:35
Come on, Goldie. Shake hands
with Miss Eleanor Bachman.

:07:39
I'm pleased to meet you,
Miss Bachman.

:07:42
You're a fan ofJack's?
:07:44
No, Ellie was on the same boat from Australia.
She was visiting down there.

:07:47
Well. Must be great
to be home again.

:07:51
- Hmm.
- Can't beat Frisco.

:07:53
Yes, I like it fine.
My home is in Tacoma, though.

:07:58
Oh.
:08:00
Well, Miss Bachman...
:08:03
the guys from the papers will be here
any minute, you know what I mean?

:08:06
- Maybe if you'll excuse...
- She's staying where she is.

:08:09
- What's the matter with you?
- I said she's staying where she is.

:08:11
- I'll wait in the hotel.
- Hotel? Jesus Christ!

:08:13
- You be nice now.
- Jackie, listen to me!

:08:15
First, they hate your guts
for fighting white guys, but okay.

:08:20
Then they hate you more
because you win.

:08:23
Still okay.
:08:25
Then they hate you so much, they're
willing to pay through the nose...

:08:29
to see you maybe
get knocked on your can.

:08:31
That's more than okay.
Cash in.

:08:33
After all, it's so nice to be colored.
You shouldn't have a bonus.

:08:37
But, sonny, when they start
hating you more than that, watch out.

:08:40
That means now.
I got ears! I get told things!

:08:43
Guys who want to put dope
into your food there.

:08:46
A guy who wants
to watch the fight behind a rifle.

:08:49
Okay, that we'll handle.
:08:51
But this, on top of it?
A white girl?

:08:55
Jackie, you want to
drive them crazy...

:08:58
What am I supposed to do?
