:53:02
You said some real swell things.
:53:04
I guess it goes to prove
that you're a better actor than I am.

:53:07
I mean actress.
:53:08
You know more about that than I would...
:53:10
...since most of your acting
has been done in bed.

:53:12
After all, someone's gotta look like
they know what they're doin'.

:53:15
Sorry I didn't measure up
to your high standards.

:53:18
- Do I get graded on a scale of ten?
- Sure, if you accept fractions.

:53:21
You know what you need?
:53:23
You need the services
of a competent psychiatrist...

:53:25
...who might, if he has unlimited time...
:53:28
...be able to assemble the pieces
of your jumbled mind.

:53:30
Bullshit!
:53:31
A technical term you picked up
in the theatrical profession.

:53:34
Listen, Mr. Know-it-all...
:53:35
...from-reading-a-Iot-of-books,
I did my time on the couch.

:53:38
- Lf a bed isn't handy.
- Very funny!

:53:41
Anyway, that shrink was like you,
all talk and no action.

:53:44
And you know what he said?
:53:46
Doris, do what you want,
as long as it doesn't make you unhappy".

:53:49
So, I did.
:53:50
I didn't pay my bill.
:53:51
Didn't make me unhappy,
but it sure made him mad as hell.

:53:54
Why didn't you let him take it out in trade?
:54:00
Give me $1, please.
:54:03
If you can manage it.
:54:07
Just so I can get a cab somewhere.
:54:12
- Where do I send it?
- Forget it.

:54:14
If you were a millionaire,
I wouldn't forget it.

:54:16
- You worked for it.
- Which is more than you did.

:54:18
Put in a full day, maybe you can earn more.
:54:20
I'll come back here.
Your friend Barney'll tell me.

:54:23
Send it to Doubleday's, 53rd and 5th.
:54:30
Is that where you work? At Doubleday's?
:54:36
In a book store?
:54:39
What are you, a clerk?
:54:43
Get a load of that.
:54:45
The big time writer is a book clerk.
:54:49
Christ, that makes me happy.
:54:50
- I'm glad something could satisfy you.
- Happy book selling.

:54:54
Happy street walking,
Miss Whatever-your-name-is.

:54:57
Maybe I'll come into the store sometime...
