You know, business is getting so good in
our little restaurant there that maybe

it's time we put tassels on the menus.

March, why don't we close early tonight,
huh?

Not much action at the bar.

What do you say?

I'll get the cash.

Hey, talking about cash, ain't you glad
I bought us that little safe over there?

Oh, no, I don't want to start an
argument with you, but, you know, that

useless.

That's what you think, wise guy.

Look, if the Saturday night bandit
breaks in here, He sees the safe. He

the money is in it and realizes that he
can't open it.

What does he do?

He does what we want him to do. He robs
somebody else.

What's the first thing he does?

He leaves the premises.

Right.

Right.

With the safe.

He picks it up, puts it under his arm,
and he exits laughing.

Well, let me tell you something,
laughing boy.

If I'd have wanted a burglar -proof
safe, I'd have went out and bought us a

one. But then, I wouldn't have wanted to
lay out to it $3 ,000.

Well, what is this one for?

Did you think I was going to put the
money in this safe?

Yes. Don't be stupid. This here safe is
only a decoy.

What do you mean, decoy? I'll show you
what I mean.

I had no idea of putting the money in
that safe.

I'm gonna put the money right here in
this here cigar box, huh?

Where no intelligent bandit is ever
gonna look for it.

That is terrific. Now, how come Brink
didn't think of that? Because big

companies always overlook the oblivious.

Hey, guys, I'm ready to take off.

Okay, Harry, we'll cover.

Arch, why don't you go home? I'll close
up.

No, why don't you go home? I'll close
up.

No, Arch, it's my turn.

Well, that don't make no difference.
I'll stay anyway. I'm in no particular

hurry to rush home. You know, Edith and
the kid are over in Nutley, New Jersey.

Aunt Flavia's dying over there.

Oh, yeah? Where's she dying from?

From 92.

I'm sorry to hear that.

Well, I look at the bright side, you
know. The old lady's finally getting out

Jersey.

Okay, guys.

Last call here.

I'll have a double scotch old -fashioned
with two cherries, a slice of orange,

and a hunk of pineapple.

Are you thirsty or are you hungry?

Just make the drink, will you? If I want
humor, I'll read the cocktail napkins.

Why, after all these years, are you
first ordering an old -fashioned?

In case I walk by the Waldorf, I don't
want the doorman to smell beer on my

breath.

However usual.

All right, come on.

Don't run a fruit stand here. I'm going
to give you straight scotch. Take it or

leave it.

No, Mr. Van Nye, you come in every
night. You sit here all night drinking.

never once see you go to the toilet.

I know.

I like to have something to do when I'm
home.

Okay, guys.

The sooner you all drink your booze, the
sooner we'll be able to lock up and get

out of here. Give us a break.

Hey,

how come you're closing so early, Arch?
What are you worried about?

What do you mean?

You know, the Saturday Night Bandit. You
scared he's going to knock over the

joint?

I ain't scared of nothing.

Don't tempt fate, Arch.

Yeah, you've been lucky.

Six or seven saloons have been hit in
the past two months.

Yeah, you know, if you catch him,
there's a $2 ,500 reward.

I know all about that, Hank.

Yeah, and if you do, then you buy a
round for all the regulars?

No, I won't.

Then I'm rooting for the robber.

If anyone comes in here, we're gonna be
ready for it.

Oh, geez, would you look at this guy.
What the hell is he gonna do with a

baseball bat?

Whatever he does, he's bound to do
better than the Mets.

Well, I don't know. The A's got some
pretty good hitters, ain't they?

Billy Martin was the best hitter, and he
didn't even use a bat.

Hey,

listen, guys, let me tell you something.
I got the best protection of war right

down here under the bar.

Hey, this is better than any baseball
bat.

Hey, look out!

What's he got?

A gun!

I'm not deaf.

He answers to any crook who comes in
trying to rob us.

That's free.

Hey, come on, Hodge. Oh, look at them.
They're all yellow.

Where did that come from?

From Louie the loan shark.

It's on loan. You know, until the
emergency's over.

Wait a minute now.

You mean to tell me that you would shoot
a human being?

Listen to this guy with the human being.

When was anybody ever robbed by a
chicken?

Human beings happen to be the kind of
people who rock.

So it's so fast, so them's the kind of
people that you shoot.

How much could he get away with? You
know, today's receipts are already in

bank. All we've got is a couple of
hundred dollars to open with tomorrow.

But that's money, ain't it?

You mean you would shoot somebody for a
couple of hundred dollars?

In a war, I shot people for nothing.

This here is a war, too. It's a war
against crime.

So?

So, how many wars do we ever win with a
ball bat?

Your logic overwhelms me.

I know that.

And I'll tell you something else.

If each and every responsible citizen of
the U .S. survey was to shoot one

crook, the crime rate would be cut in
half.

Hey, he's got a point there.

You do not have to shoot anybody. All
you got to do is hit him, tie him up

this, and then just call the cops.

Oh, sure, and then have a rap to pay his
room and board up in Attica or some

other country retreat.

The trick with you liberals is you're
soft on criminals and you're hard on the

taxpayer.

Well, I'm with Arch. You got to have a
gun.

Yeah, well, I'm with Murray. You got to
have a bat.

Yeah, well, I'm with both of them.

How can you be with both of them? Well,
I'd hit him over the head, tie him up,

then I'd shoot him.

Ain't it enough to shoot the crook? You
gotta be mean to him, too.

Well, I'm against both.

God gave you brains, use them.

Talk to him, reason with him.

It's time to go home, Mr. Vannoy.

See you, sir. Yeah, all right. See you.

See you in the morning.

Good night, Art.

Good night, Murray.

Stop. Yeah, got it. Hey, that's good.

I tell you, I agree with Mr. Van
Rensselaer.

Well, let me tell you something, Murray.

Guns don't kill people. I know.

People kill people. Don't give me that
bumper sticker stuff. Put the gun down.

ain't going to put it in no place. Go on
home, will you? I said I was going to

close it. All right, then put it away.
Go on, go on, go on.

When you close up, you do it your way.
All right, don't... I close up, I do it

my way. All right,

give me the cash. No, I'm not going to
give you the cash. Give me the cash.

You're kidding.

Hand it over. Here you go. You got it.
Yeah, yeah.

I'm going to put it in our little, you
know, what you call safe back there.

That's all.

Huh? Be careful where you point that.

All right, you.

You're really stupid. I ain't going to
do nothing stupid. I know what I'm

Good night. Good night. Good night.

Please.

Oh, uh, I like New York in June.

How about you?

I like engagement too.

How about you?

I like your fireside when a storm is
due.

I like potato chips, mulled wine, and
mulled wine.

How about you?

I'm mad about good books.

I can't get my spell out.

Give me the goblin's looks.

Give me a thrill.

Holding hands in a movie show.

When all the lights are low.

May not be new.

I like it.

How about you?

Hey, Archie?

It's Murray. I'm back.

Oh, my God.

What the hell is the matter with you?

Oh, gee, what the hell are you doing
sneaking back here at 3 o 'clock in the

morning? I didn't sneak back here. I
came back because I was worried about

I called you. Didn't you hear me call
you? No, I didn't hear nothing.

Look what could have happened to me. I
could have killed you.

I would have been the dead one.

Is that really the point, Murray?

Would have been all over for you.

I'd have had to live with that the rest
of my life.

Got to my way. I need a drink.

You can pour one for me, too. Look at
this. My hand is shaking like a leaf.

I knew you couldn't be trusted with a
gun.

That's why I came back.

Oh, well, all right. Drink your drink
and go on home again.

Well, I'm not going home.

I'm staying right here.

You're going to be waiting around for
some thief. I'm going to make sure that

you don't kill anybody.

Oh, listen, Murray.

If I can take that guy without no...

You know, collect the $2 ,500 reward.
I'll do it, see? I don't want to use

here unless I have to. That's exactly my
point. I don't want you to be using it

any time. Murray, Murray, let's wait and
see what happens, huh?

I don't think we're going to get that
Saturday night bandit now.

Oh, we'll get him.

It's Sunday morning.

I don't mind shooting him on a Sunday.

You know something?

You could shoot yourself with that
thing.

Oh, I could.

But I ain't gonna.

What the hell do you think I have, a
dumbbell?

Don't be giving me that look.

Let me tell you something.

It's very rare that you see me do
anything dumb.

That hole in the door is pretty dumb.

I have to get my pants cleaned.

Did you do that?

Oh, no. When I was on the floor when you
shot me.

Oh, what the hell?

You were so neat anyway. Why the hell
are you always so neat?

Well, it's...

Poor early toiletaining.

Toiletaining?

Toiletaining.

Was your mother changing diapers too
much?

Not enough.

You know, that's kind of a disgusting
story.

That was my childhood problems.

What was yours?

Getting caught.

At what?

Everything.

Look at this here.

That's a dead soldier here.

You know what you do to dead soldiers?

You take them out of the line.

Help me up.

And the very same to you.

I think we've both had enough to drink.

Oh, I think so.

Well, we can stand a little more.

I think we ought to leave.

That robber's going to come here. I
think we ought to be home where we'll be

safe. You made him pass up a $2 ,500
reward on his chest.

Well, you'd do anything for $2 ,500.

Would you?

I wouldn't risk my life for it.

Well, won't you risk it? you like, huh?

What do you think you like with white?

I never put a price on it. Oh, you never
put a price on it, huh?

Well, you never put a price on it
because

you were very rich.

What the hell do you mean? I was raised
rich.

Raised rich.

Well, most Jewish people are raised
rich.

What people?

Oh, look at this guy. He's trying to
make believe he don't know what I'm

about.

What people? I'll give you a hint.

Starts with a G.

G?

We're Jewish.

Oh, I see.

Well, that makes you a J.

How do you figure?

Absolutely right.

And another thing about Jewish people,
see?

Jewish people, you've always had a happy
childhood.

I always wondered why I was always such
a sad kid.

Were you really honest to God a sad kid?

Yeah.

Well, maybe you ain't Jewish.

You ever think of that?

No, I'm Jewish.

Oh.

And if you're Jewish, then you have a
bar mitzvah,

right? That's right.

Then you wasn't sad. What the hell are
you complaining about?

I never had no chance when I was 13
years of age to say, now I am a man.

You could have said that any time.

Without a bar mitzvah.

Oh, I know. Well, I mean, I did say it
when I was 18. I went up to my old man

that day and I said, hey, Pop.

I am a man.

What did your old man say then?

He hit me with a shovel.

If it's any consolation to you, you're
very special to me.

And I think you're a man.

Boy, that's very nice. That ain't no
real bomb. Sure it is.

Here's a fountain pen.

What the hell was that? What?

What?

There's a noise out here at the door.

Maybe it's the wind.

Don't jump to confusion.

Check it out.

win, but the next time it could really
be somebody, you know.

Where's my rod?

Here, safe in the safe.

Give me my rod.

Oh, no. No.

We're gonna use these, Arch.

Oh, geez, are you silly?

A little hunk of clothes lying there to
handle some huge colored guy?

How do you know it's a huge color guy.

All right, all right, I ain't
prejudiced. There's a huge Puerto Rican

Come on, come on. Give me the ride.

Good morning.

Did you say that?

No, we did.

Drop the rope.

And the bat.

Just relax.

Holy cow.

What happened?

What does it look like, you doge?

Geez, I'd better call the cops.

Kind of a jerk, are you?

It's so late in the morning, for God's
sake. This whole thing is Murray's

Him and his baseball bats.

You're lucky that neither one of us got
killed.

The two of you couldn't do a thing, huh?

Well, not against the two that come in
here.

Hey, guys.

You wouldn't believe the size of them.

Yeah. I want them packing a big bazooka
or something.

Look at here.

And blew that hole right in the door
there.

Fortunately,

if nobody says the wrong thing, our
bladeless insurance will have to pay for

that.

Oh.

Oh, the safe's gone and the dough
withered. Oh, no, the money wasn't in

safe. The money was in...

Marcy's Cigar Bar.

You put the money in the cigar bar?
Leave me alone, would you?

Marcy, you know it. Just wouldn't you
know it.

A couple of damn fool women go looking
for money where it ain't supposed to be.

Women?

You mean you got held up by a couple of
women?

All right, wait a minute.

Wait a minute. Wait a minute.

Wait till the guys hear about this. Wait
a minute.

Wait a minute.

You ain't going to say nothing about
this to the guys.

Ah, yes, I am.

Oh, listen now, Harry.

Harry. Yeah, Maria.

You like your job, Harry?
