1:12:00
You passed out.
1:12:04
Where's Audrey?
1:12:05
She's dead, Barton!
1:12:06
She's dead, if that was her name!
1:12:09
You got to act
as if nothing has happened.
1:12:12
Put this totally out of your head.
1:12:14
Your play is to go about
your business as usual.
1:12:17
Give us some time
to sort this out.
1:12:24
[Ticking]
1:12:29
Bart!
So happy to see ya!
1:12:33
Sit. Talk.
Relax for a minute.
1:12:35
Then talk.
1:12:37
Drink?
1:12:38
Uh...
1:12:39
yeah.
1:12:42
Rye whiskey?
1:12:43
Boy, you writers.
Work hard, play hard.
1:12:45
That's what I hear, anyway.
Lou!
1:12:47
Anyway, Ben Geisler tells me things
are going along great.
1:12:51
Says we got a real winner
in this one.
1:12:54
I'll tell you something.
I'm counting on it.
1:12:56
I've taken an interest.
Nothing to fear, mind you.
1:12:59
Hardly seems necessary in your case...
1:13:01
a writer,
a storyteller of your stature.
1:13:03
Give it to me
in bold strokes, Bart.
1:13:05
Give me the broad outlines.
1:13:07
I'm in the audience,
the lights go down,
1:13:10
Capitol logo comes up.
1:13:11
You're on, huh?
1:13:16
Yeah.
1:13:18
Uh... okay.
1:13:19
Huh?
1:13:22
Well, uh...
1:13:25
we... we fade in...
1:13:26
Uh-huh.
1:13:29
It's... It's a tenement building
on the Lower East Side.
1:13:32
Great!
He's poor, this wrestler.
1:13:34
He's had to struggle, huh?
1:13:38
And then...
1:13:39
Uh-huh?
1:13:40
Well, uh...
1:13:44
Can I be honest, Mr. Lipnick?
1:13:46
Can you?
Jesus, you damn well better be!
1:13:49
If I wasn't honest
in my business dealings...
1:13:51
Well, you can't always be honest,
1:13:53
not with the sharks
swimming around this town.
1:13:56
If I'd been totally honest,
1:13:57
I wouldn't be near this pool
1:13:59
unless I was cleaning it.
