Charles Christopher Parker, Jr.
:14:08
August 29, 1920.
:14:11
You were an easy delivery.
Turn that light on for me.

:14:15
Now meet somebody.
:14:20
That's you, my man.
:14:21
Dead from it. Older than you'll be,
because you started earlier.

:14:26
So I give you 18 years,
20 on the outside.

:14:31
I'm worse than a prophet.
:14:32
I don't just have faith.
I've seen it.

:14:36
You've heard from my mother.
:14:38
You believe me or not?
:14:40
Why shouldn't I believe you?
:14:41
Are you going to
do something about it?

:14:44
What do you expect me to do about it?
:14:53
What do you expect me to do about it?
:14:59
Nothing, just sign it.
:15:02
I haven't done anything
remotely like this in my life.

:15:10
Strings.
:15:12
Yeah, but I got them all.
:15:14
- The hell you do.
- The hell I don't.

:15:16
I got a stack of 78s this high.
:15:22
This is death's door?
:15:28
Half the city thinks you're crimped
and you're signing autographs.

:15:32
You didn't think so, little birdy.
:15:34
Every time I turn around,
you're supposed to be gone.

:15:37
You'll bury us all
and take our women with you.

:15:40
So, what do you got there?
:15:43
Whitman's chocolates.
:15:46
Also, I think, some good news.
:15:48
Can he eat these?
:15:49
Better let me try one first.
:15:52
First of all...
:15:53
...Leighton will pay 100 bucks
for 5 tunes written for saxophone...

:15:58
...and before you jump on my ass...
