All language subtitles for Alfred Hitchcock s06e09 The Money

Good evening.

This is not to symbolize my expulsion
from an exclusive club.

It is a mode of transportation.

This is just the vehicle for those of
you who have always longed to see

Falls from the bottom.

This is the first two -passenger model
for that couple that enjoys

living dangerously, even on the
honeymoon.

It is also attractively decorated.

I don't understand why we don't sell
more of them.

And speaking of sell, we have had
complaints that our sponsor's sell is so

viewers have the feeling something is
being left out of the commercials.

For them, here is the uncensored,
uncouth version.

it out, Larry.

I said cut it out.

You want to wrestle, why don't you go
down to the gym?

You kill me, Larry.

You really kill me. Listen, Angie, don't
play games with me.

I'm not fooling around about this.

I want to marry you.

I'm not fooling either.

I'm no kid anymore.

It's about time I settled down. I told
you that.

Oh, yeah, you told me that.

Only money comes first, right?

So what's so wrong about that?

A girl's got to think about money. It's
a lesson I learned from Mama.

Your Mama never had the price of a beer.

That was the lesson.

Well, that's what I come over to tell
you, Angie. The money's going to come.

Plenty of it. Oh, yeah?

Where from?

I quit Patsy's this morning.

I ain't taking no more bets for him.

He can find himself another boy. You
quit Patsy's?

What for?

You gonna get him some competition,
maybe?

No. Nothing like that.

I don't like horses.

They make me sneeze.

Besides, they got smarter ideas than
bookmaking.

Big ideas.

I'll get the money, Angie.

I've been thinking about it a long time.
How?

How?

I made an appointment this afternoon.

Tomorrow morning I'm going to meet with
a guy named Stefan Bogornik.

He runs a big importing company. Head
man.

He's going to give me a job.

What makes you so sure?

Because I know it.

Him and my pop were buddies when they
come over from the old country.

So?

So it's like a debt.

Long before my pop died, Bregonik used
to tell him to send me around.

Why didn't he then?

Because my pop didn't like the way he
did his business.

Bregonik wasn't too careful about what
he imported or where it came from.

You know my pop, Angie.

He was the original on his job.

All right.

So he gives you a job.

What'll it pay?

Not much, I guess.

Sixty, seventy bucks a week.

What?

I'm making 150 with Patsy right now.

I got my reasons, Angie.

What kind of reasons?

There's money in that operation.

Big money.

If I stick it out long enough, some of
it's coming my way. You think I'm going

to sit around for 25 years until you get
a gold watch?

Uh -uh.

It won't be that way, Angie.

It won't be that way, sweetheart.

Do you have any faith in me at all?

Money, Larry.

That's what I got faith in.

Money.

Hello?

I'm Larry Chetnick. Is Mr. Borgornick
in?

What do you want to see Mr.

Borgornick about?

It's about a job.

He's expecting me. Would you tell him
I'm here?

Mr. Begornik, there's a Larry Chetnik
here to see you.

Send him in. Yes, sir.

You can go right in there.

Sit down.

So you're Young's boy.

I suppose you want something.

No, sir. I just thought I'd look you up
like I was to my pop. I should. Your pop

was a fool.

You know that?

Him and me, we came to this country the
same day.

For 27 years, he broke his back on the
construction gangs.

So what happens?

He starves.

He raises his family in a lousy
neighborhood.

He gets hit with a steel beam and he
dies.

Am I describing a fool or what?

He was a nice old guy.

Nice guys are stupid.

Are you stupid, Larry?

No, Mr. Pagonik, I'm not stupid.

But I try to be a nice guy, too.

You speak any other languages?

No, sir.

You go to high school?

I quit just before graduation.

You know how to write out orders, keep
neat records, files, that kind of stuff?

I had a year of business administration.

Can you handle yourself?

I mean... What do you do if a guy pushes
you around?

I push back.

You dress pretty good.

Got more than that one suit?

Got another one just like it.

You willing to work any hours?

Nights sometimes?

Sure. You know anything about the
importing business?

No. Good.

I know that lousy neighborhood you come
from.

Patsy and those cheap punks.

You mixed up with them?

I used to work for Patsy, but that's
all.

75 bucks a week.

It may be a bonus at Christmas, if I
like your style.

Only remember, I do a lot of business
out of my apartment.

That's where my customers come.

You'll be there when I tell you to be
there.

Right? Sure thing, Mr. Bergonik.

Thanks a lot.

All set, Larry?

Yes, sir.

It's good to be with you again, my
friend. Please come in.

Miklos, I wish you to meet Larry, my
cousin.

My pleasure.

And this is my cousin.

Please, let us sit down. Thank you.

Larry, a drink for the gentleman. No,
no, no. No drink for me.

Ah, but a little wine, try. Wine is
good.

Anything for you?

My cousin doesn't drink.

Well?

And how is the importing business, my
friend?

Business is like always.

The market is only people.

If people want something, the market is
good.

If not... You are right as usual, my old
friend. Thank you.

Tell me, my friend, is it true that the
wine business is much improved?

What do you think the market would be
for 900 cases of Romani

Conti?

49 vintage.

I think it would not be bad, Miklos.

Depending, of course, on the suggested
price.

Well, my partners abroad suggest $7
,000.

is a fair amount.

What would your company say to that?

Do you like the wine, my friend?

It is very good.

Do you like the price, my friend?

The company accepts the terms.

Four months.

I'm four months older.

You think that doesn't mean anything to
a girl? What do you want from me?

I want some action, that's what I want.

Oh, you're the guy with the big plans.

The big money man.

Seventy -five bucks a week.

All right, you want to know about the
deal, I'll tell you.

Go ahead, I'd love to hear it.

Then sit down and shut up.

I told you about this guy Begonic. He's
an operator, a big -timer. He makes more

quick imports than anybody on the East
Coast.

You know why?

Because he deals in cash.

No papers, no books, no nothing. I
figure he must keep 100, 200 grand in

apartment of his.

So what are you going to do?

Swipe it?

No, it won't be that easy.

Begonic's no dope.

I figure I'll make it one big haul and
I'm taking my time about it.

Then we'll have enough dough to skip the
country.

Live in a big someplace.

South America, Rio.

Rio? Yeah.

Any place you like.

Oh, but when's it gonna be?

When's it going to happen?

I don't know. I can't be sure. It might
be six months from now.

Might even be this week.

There's been a rumor around the office
about some foreign typewriters.

Typewriters?

Yeah.

Stolen goods.

I don't know how true it is, but I heard
her old friend Miklos is in on a deal.

And if it clicks, the price could be
big.

How big?

I don't know.

I'll have to see.

And you really think you could get the
money?

I ain't been thinking of anything else.

For months.

You sent for me, Mr. Pagonik?

Yes.

You and me, we got a date tonight.

The apartment?

That's right.

Big stuff tonight, Larry.

Wear your best suit and keep your eyes
open.

Yes, sir.

Will Miklos be there?

Yeah, that's right.

Our good friend Miklos and his cousin.

I don't know what time they're coming.
Pretty late, maybe.

You come to my place, 10, 10 .30.

I'll be there, Mr. McGonagall.

Well?

There's been a rumor going around about
some typewriters.

Is that the deal, Mr. McGonagall? I
don't like rumors.

Sometimes they're true. Now, get out of
here.

Mr. Bergornik, please.

Just a minute, please.

Bergornik.

Stefan.

Who is this? Miklos?

Yes.

Jest is very bad today.

I think maybe I cannot leave the house
tonight.

That's too bad.

We will make it some other night then,
Miklos, when you feel better.

No, no.

business.

Perhaps if someone could bring the money
over to my house tonight, about eight.

Someone?

Yes, your cousin, Larry.

He's trustworthy, no?

Yes, but we haven't yet agreed on the
price.

Is the 30 ,000 agreeable to your
partners?

Yes, yes, it's agreeable.

I'll send Larry with the money.

Hello, Mr. McGonagall. I got your
message to come here early.

Yes, our plans for the evening have
changed.

Come in, Larry.

My good friend Miklos called me this
afternoon.

He can't make the meeting tonight, but
he wants to complete the transaction.

So I'm sending you over to his house.

With the money.

Did I have his address, sir?

It's on the envelope.

Should I go now, Mr.

Pagonik?

In a minute.

Sit down.

I've been thinking about... Ava.

Your mother.

My mother?

Yeah.

To you, she was just a nice old lady.

Cooked your meals and sent you to school
and junk like that, right?

My mother died before I was 12, Mr.
Bogornik.

Yeah, sure, I remember.

Only maybe you didn't know something
about your mother.

Her and me, we were engaged to be
married once, back in the old country.

A family thing, an arrangement, you
know.

Only then she met your pop.

And that made things different.

You ever know about that, Larry?

No, sir.

I could have been your father.

I wouldn't have minded that, Mr.
Pagonik.

You were better off the way you were.

Don't get any wrong ideas.

Your pop was the best guy on earth.

Stupid, but the best.

Sure, Mr. Pagonik.

Don't you ever forget it.

Come in, Angie.

I was doing my hair. I look a mess.

You shouldn't walk in on a girl like
that.

Sit down.

Say what's with you. Sit down.

You always thought I was a nothing, huh?

That's what you thought, didn't you?

This little Larry from around the corner
running errands for the big boys.

Take them bets.

What's the matter? You drunk or
something?

How much?

How much is it? 30 ,000 bucks.

30 ,000 dollars?

I never spent so much money in my life.

30 ,000 bucks.

Oh, I never thought you could do it.

I never thought you had it in you.

Oh, you sweet babies.

You beautiful things, you... Mama's
going to take good care of you.

I want a hundred pair of shoes, Larry.

I'm crazy about shoes.

Good shoes.

$30 ,000.

Oh, think what we can do with it.

I'll pack tonight.

Oh, it won't take me long. I'm not going
to take much. We can buy new clothes

when we get there. Summer clothes,
right?

It's always summer in Rio, ain't it?

Give it back, Angie.

All of it.

Oh, come on, honey. Let me keep just a
little.

A little for pocket money? I said all of
it.

Well, I can pack in 15 minutes. There
won't be any packing. You wait right

until I call you.

Understand? Where are you going?

You ain't leaving me, are you?

Oh, no. You couldn't walk out on me just
like that.

Let go of me, Angie.

I know what I'm doing.

Larry, please.

Hey, you are coming back.

You are coming back.

Hello,

cousin.

Tell your cousin to lay off, huh?

What have you done with the money?

I'm sorry for all the trouble I caused
you.

Here it is, mister.

Gornick, it's all there. It's 30 ,000
bucks.

You see?

He was the one who called you.

Not I, Stefan.

The boy is a thief.

He's right.

From a no -good crook.

I was the one who called you, told you
the meeting was off.

I thought it was going to be easy. I was
so set to hop aboard to South America.

Then why didn't you?

Why did you come back?

Because I forgot something.

I thought I was being real smart getting
all I do.

But I forgot about my old man.

I tried to rob you, Mr. Pagonik, so you
can do whatever you want to me.

But I began thinking about what you said
about my father.

I began to remember things about him.

He was a pretty dumb guy, all right,
just like you said.

But I loved him.

I couldn't do this to him. That's why I
come back.

Reggie. Reggie.

Larry.

You came back.

I never thought you would. I never
thought I'd see you again.

I told you, didn't I?

Where you been?

I've been to Begonic's place.

Begonic? Mm -hmm.

They gave him back the money.

You gave him back the money?

Every nickel.

Why, Larry?

Why?

What's so funny?

What's so funny?

Don't you get it?

Don't you get it, you dope?

30 grand's okay.

But it's no fortune.

I got something better than that.

Much better.

Something that'll pay off in a hundred
grand someday soon.

That guy has trust.

Well, I was so glad to see Larry get
over his preoccupation with money.

I shall have news for you after the
following sponsorial pronunciamento.

I wish to thank the sponsor for that
heartwarming and revealing human

I look forward to more of the same next
week.

Passers -by can see what you are
watching, even if you can't.
