tonight.

Well, I'm still trying to finish typing up my report.

To tell you the truth, my dad's Uncle Joe is over here, and, uh, well, he's

you know. I gotta kind of keep an eye out on him.

Hey, Lori Beth, can you hear this?

Huh? Yeah, that's him.

I'm afraid if I get too close to him, he'll suck up my homework.

No, he never stops.

He stopped.

All right, all right, Lord Beth, I'll call you back, okay?

Joe. Uncle Joe? What, what, what, what?

Is there a fire?

No, no, there's no fire. It's just, uh, uh, you stop snoring.

You woke me up to tell me that?

Yeah, silly of me. I'm sorry.

Oh, uh, Uncle Joe, would you care for a cookie? Why not?

Tony, Richie, when you were a little fella, I used to give you cookies, and

here we are, and you're giving me cookies.

Yeah. Must be the same cookie.

I hear you used to change my diapers, too.

Yeah, well, that makes me one up on you.

What is all that stuff?

Oh, that's my journalism report that I'm working on. It's on the 1920s. You

know, Prohibition and jazz. Oh, that was my hate.

I was young, I had dark hair, and in order to switch back, I looked like

Raft. Oh, come on. Well, I did.

I used to tango to a dog.

Be interested in reading my report?

Your report?

Yeah. All right. Your report, huh?

Well,

that's wrong. What?

That's wrong.

They're all wrong.

Uncle George, you're messing up my report.

I'm sorry, son, but I was there.

Yeah, I saw what was going on. The real facts.

Tell me, you ever heard of Cecil Cunningham?

even know how to tango.

All right, Uncle Joe. Who was Cecil Cunningham?

Cecil Cunningham was my cousin.

He was the brightest and most dedicated district attorney I've ever had in this

town, and you favor him a lot.

I do? Yes, you do. Now, you sit down, and I'm going to tell you a story

have you begging for more.

The Charleston.

Why, the whole country was caught up in a party that lasted more than a decade.

Well, the big war had just ended. The boys were back from over there.

But that didn't stop the monsters.

They made books, sold them for a lot of money.

And a lot of people ended up getting rubbed out.

There was a saloon keeper named Eddie.

An honest businessman, much like your own dad until Prohibition put him and

Cecil on opposite sides of the law.

Cousin Cecil Cunningham had just joined the DA's office.

to be my daughter, too.

Here's another speakeasy.

Paper, mister?

Why, I already read it.

Speak sports.

That's the fourth speak Cunningham's closed.

Yeah, I just hope he doesn't show up here.

I never drank it before.

It's not bad.

All right, so you weaseled out of it this time.

But I'm going to be back.

I'm going to ride you like you were man o' war.

I'll be back again and again and again.

Good, boss. I like this place, too.

Purvis, let's blow this joint. Let's blow this joint.

Hey, wait outside for me, all right? I want to talk to Ginger.

No, boss, don't do it. She's no good for you. You're wrong, Purvis.

Her heart belongs to me. Her heart, sure.

But the rest of her keeps going out with all the other guys.

She's... She's cheap.

Is that any way for you to talk about your own sister?

I'll wait in the car.

And don't play with the siren.

No, I won't play with the siren.

Hiya, Miss Ginger.

Gee, it's swell seeing you again.

You're looking something.

Remember we went together for four years?

Get your hands off her, DA. She's not your girl anymore.

She belongs to Spax.

Hold it. Hold it.

Don't panic. He's not here now.

Oh, so that's the way it is, huh?

You and Spax.

I'm not ashamed.

I feel sorry for you, Ginger.

four of my places.

Now, I'm not getting enough protection from you, Spats. Maybe you're going

I think I heard the word soft.

Well, I was only repeating what he said.

in D .A.

to the opposite.

How long can our luck hold out?

I'm not afraid of those cheap two -bit hoodlums.

Not afraid, huh?

So what's this? It came with the suit.

Don't sit in my chair, Purvis. No, boss, no.

You may not be afraid, boss, but I am. You know, those Tommy guns don't always

shoot so straight. And I'm always next to you.

You're getting twitchy, Purvis.

Yeah, give yourself some recreation.

Go dancing.

What about you?

No, dance with a girl. You'll have more fun.

Hey, you read all about it.

Spatz puts contract out on Cunningham. You see? You see? And his assistant

Purvis.

this wrong.

Don't you see that? You see, they're going to get us, boss.

No, they're not going to get us, Purvis, because we're going to get them first.

Yeah, we're going down to the Kit Kat Club. You and me, right now, we're going

to clean them out.

They'll just hide the booze again.

You're right.

The little cardicles.

look like me, see? We throw him out the window.

No, don't cut it, kid. Don't cut it. Ah, yeah. What do I be in a yellow belly

for? You're just trying to do your job.

Yeah, you got moxie, kid. You got moxie. I'm sorry that life just looked at you

and went... Yeah, that sidewalk's got my name written on it, all right.

But listen, give this watch to my mother, will you?

It's hers anyway.

Okay, I will.

You got a lot of bounce.

Now let's see just how much.

I came mighty close to cashing him in on that one. Yeah.

Almost a big sleep, huh?

Maybe that awning down there would have broken my fall. Good thing we didn't

have to find out, huh? Back from eating, boss.

Spatz and Ginger moved out west to live with a sister.

She married a merchant marine named Fonzarelli.

Fonzarelli?

Fonzie and Spatz were related? Oh, that's incredible. I can't wait to tell

What? What's so funny? Gotcha, didn't I?

Are you telling me that whole story? That whole story was something you made

No, no, only the funny parts. I didn't want to bore you.

about Cecil, they were all true. And if you don't believe me, you can look it up

in all the old newspapers. Oh, no. No, I believe you.

Boy, all that happened to my family. That's something.

Well, there was a lot of excitement.

The trouble is that young people just don't seem to be interested.

I'm interested.

Yeah.

I got all kinds of questions I want to ask you.

And from now on, when I come visit you, I'm not going to just bring some

magazine because I want to find out about my family. You know, all the

that I never got to meet.

You're a nice boy, Richard, and I like you, and you come over any time you

But you might be in for a surprise.

Some of those relatives of yours... Well,

those might be the most interesting stories.

Now, you gotta tell me how Purvis survived that fall out of the window.

now, that was amazing.

It so happened that Babe Ruth was making a personal appearance right in that

same neighborhood. They happened to be passing the building when Purvis fell

out. The big babe put out his arms, made a circus catch, and he saved Purvis'

life. Babe Ruth? And Purvis? That.

Oh, that is. That's amazing. Babe Ruth and Purvis.

Got me again, dude.

west from Pennsylvania in a covered wagon with no man.

She started the Cunningham family right here in Milwaukee.

Oh.

Oh, well, how did she start a family with no man?

That's pretty sharp, isn't it?

Now we're all set.

Yeah, Uncle Joe, we got your bags loaded up in the car. Yeah, let's get started.

Uncle Joe, I baked you an apple pie to take along.

I was very thoughtful of you.

But there's a piece missing.

Always looks at me, huh?

Was it good? Delicious.

Come on, Uncle Joe.

We'll walk you to the DeSoto.

Now, Uncle Joe, you sure you wouldn't like to stay a couple more years?

No, no, I've got a million things to do. I've got my card parties and dancing

lessons. Oh, and what dance are you learning? Oh, I'm not a...

Great guy. Hello.

Hold me when I hold you.

All right. It can't be wrong.

Rock and roll.
