Glory.

Upon recommendation of the business

conduct committee, the firm of Kanan

company has been suspended from this

exchange.

Well, they started.

Come in.

You want it on the telephone, Mr. Kane.

Who is it?

It's the district attorney's officer.

I'd better take it.

Hello. Now, this is McGinness's

attorney.

Oh, I see.

Yes, he'll be here.

The grand jury is worth an indictment

for embezzlement.

They're in a hurry, aren't they?

I would have to put some pressure on the

district attorney. It wouldn't do any

good. This is election year. That's

right. He'll crucify me.

That's an idea.

Maybe we can turn this thing around.

Make it look like political persecution.

They wouldn't fall for it. If he's got

the evidence, I think

Well, he's got it, hasn't he? Otherwise,

I wouldn't be indicted.

Well, they never sent a millionaire to

prison as long as I can remember. Where

have you been for the last couple of

years?

Come in.

Your car is ready, Mr. Kane.

Car?

To take you to the regata.

Oh. Oh. That's right. Bob is rowing

today.

I'd forgotten about him.

I must let him hear anything about this

from strangers.

Come on, we'll drive out there.

But I told district attorney you'll be

here.

Let the district attorney wait.

Mr. Kane.

Yes, I'm Mr. Kane.

He's my attorney.

Mr. Kane, uh, do I go with you or do you

ride with me?

There's no chance of postponing this

until tomorrow.

Sorry, Mr. Kane.

Then I ride with you. You take my car,

you get Bob and bring him back here.

What about the bail?

I'll arrange that. Telephone me at the

um

county jail.

County Jail. Go ahead.

I'm ready. Officer,

this isn't funny, Mr. Kane.

You're telling me

up.

Shoulders down.

Right down your waist. Now,

watch your turn.

Hey,

I stand right over there.

Yeah, but will you wait just a second? I

This is not for the sport, Paige.

Yeah, but Huh?

Get out of here.

Go on. Thank you.

Hello, Mac.

Hello, Bob. There's um there's something

rather important I wanted to tell you.

Your father's in a jam. He wanted to get

up here himself, but couldn't get away.

Now you understand the papers are making

party much at this. There it is.

Hey, Mom. Come on, Bob. Come on, Bob.

Come on.

Say Bob, come on.

You go to the door. I'll take care of

that.

Yes.

Good evening. Good evening. Will you

take my bags upstairs? Yes, Mr.

What's the matter?

He's left school.

I wouldn't tonight.

It's pretty much broken up.

Thanks, Jim. I'll call you the first

thing in the morning. All right.

Good night.

Good night.

How about

you shouldn't have left school.

Why not?

You shouldn't have run away.

I suppose I should just sit in class and

be exhibit A instead of that skeleton

they have hanging on the wall. All my

friends being extra nice to me just to

show how broad-minded they are.

You'll have to learn to take it.

Why should I take it for something I

didn't do?

Oh, come, Bob. You're making this thing

much too important. Oh,

it isn't important. Huh?

Look, I sold securities belonging to

some customers of the firm. It's not the

first time that's been done.

Are you trying to tell me that this is

the usual thing?

We're in a tough game. We've got to be

as tough as the other fellow or get out.

You'll find it out for yourself when

you're making your way in the world. I

suppose

I guess I was just dumb enough to

believe what was taught me. to live by a

code.

What? The athletic code? Why? Every time

you ran down the field for a touchdown,

you had one of the best teams blocking

for you that money could buy. Codes are

for suckers. It's the same in business.

There's only one rule. Eat or be eaten.

This is a swell way to find it out.

I thought you knew. Take a look at

yourself.

What have I got to do with it?

Well, suppose I let people push me

around. Where would you be today? Out

looking for a job. Or maybe on relief or

perhaps with these fellas that walk up

and down on picket lines striking for

something that they'll never get. Well,

maybe they're better off than I am.

Oh, come Bob. Wake up. use your help.

I am I'm thinking way back to this

afternoon. Back 10 years to that night

mother died. And you and I sat together

until dawn. Remember? You talked to me

like an equal then and I felt like one.

We swore we'd always be honest with each

other. We knew there was a bond between

us which never could be broken.

It needn't be broken.

You broke it when you stopped being

honest with me. Why didn't you tell me

what you were doing? You made a life for

me. Let me go on living it without ever

understanding it. If you just said you

were skating on thin ice, all right, I I

would have tried to understand, but I

wouldn't be in a spot like this. I'm not

prepared for it.

No. And don't tell me I can't take it.

Why should I be able to take it when

I've had no warning? When out of a clear

sky, I I find that my father's a crook.

I hope you didn't mean that.

I wish I didn't.

Have you said all you're going to?

I think so.

All right. Now, you listen to me. Am I

willing to admit that I didn't pay much

attention to you with the exception of

course that I wanted you to have a fine

education and plenty of money and so

forth? Probably that wasn't enough. I

didn't really think of you until this

happened to me. And I wondered what it

would mean to you. Today was like a

nightmare to me. I was afraid of the

moment when I had to face you and

explain. I was afraid because

well, I knew my heart would break if you

were forgiving and understanding.

But now I know better. The prison term

doesn't mean anything to me. I can do

that standing on my head.

It was you.

And now that we found out how we feel

about each other, I'll know that I'll

never have to give you another thought

as long as I live.

Is that all?

Yes.

Would

you please tell me where Mr. Kane is to

be sentenced today?

General Sence Court, Judge Penrose.

Thank you.

Step aside, please.

All persons having business before the

court, part one of general session,

State of New York, County of New York,

step forward and ye shall be heard. The

Honorable Mr. Justice Penrose.

Good morning, gentlemen.

Morning.

For sentence, Michael.

The jury has found you guilty only on a

minor charge.

It has acquitted you on all the major

charges against you because it believed

some doubt exists as to your actual

guilt.

If that doubt exists in the minds of the

jury, it never existed in mine or in any

of the witnesses. It was put there by

the questionable tactics of your council

and by the scandalous misuse of

loopholes in the law. This is a

disgraceful verdict.

You are an habitual felon with a long

and dismal record. All I can do is to

give you the maximum sentence permitted

me under the law.

You will serve two years in state

prison.

Thank you, your honor.

I wish it were 20.

For a sentence, Robert Kaine.

It is disheartening for me to pronounce

sentence on a man of your position and

background.

Your crime is the more serious and that

you have misused your high place in our

society to betray a sacred trust.

You are sentenced to serve from 5 to 10

years in state prison on each of the

counts on which you have been found

guilty.

The sentence is to run concurrently.

Court is recessed.

Hey,

uh, Mr. Kane, expect to get a new trial.

Kane, do you feel that your sentence was

Just read your own papers, boys. They've

said it all.

Well, don't worry, Mr. Kane. We won't

bother you anymore. From now on, you're

yesterday's news.

Thank you. Hey, let's talk about me. I

steal an empty slot machine and get 10

years. This guy steals a million, gets

five. Figure that out, will you?

That's why you got the 10 to figure it

out.

Let's go. Let's go.

Oh, smart guy, eh? Come on.

Goodbye, Jim. Goodbye, Robert.

All back.

Hello, Bob. I didn't know you were here.

I got here late. How is he?

He's taking it remarkably well.

Well, did he uh did he say anything

about me?

No, he didn't. Come on then. woke up

with me.

What are you going to do for him

legally? I mean,

I shall make the usual appeal, but I'm

afraid he won't do any good. What are

your plans?

Oh, I haven't any look for a job, I

guess.

I'm afraid you might have to. By the

time we settle up all the creditors,

there'll be nothing left in the estate.

Well, if I can do anything for you, let

me know.

Thanks, Mac. Goodbye.

Goodbye.

in there.

48.

48.

Leave your closing personal effects in

the dressing room, Mr. Kane.

Mr. Kane.

13826. From now on.

Name, please?

Dugan. Tom.

Age?

I'll be 58 when I get out.

Previous occupation?

Thief.

Don't worry, I'll get me old job back

again.

All right, you can go.

Name, please.

Robert,

former occupation stock broker.

I used to be a customs man myself. I'm

afraid there's no brokerage office in

here.

Can you do anything else?

I started as a boiler maker.

Well, how'd you like to start over

again?

It's not a bad idea.

Number one 3826

boiler shop.

1603325334

in here.

13826 in here.

Top one's yours. Thanks.

Got to chew.

No, I don't chew.

Do I get the breaks? Last Connor was in,

you didn't have no hands and I had to

dress him every morning.

I have an appointment with Mr. Peterson.

What was it about?

I've told you seven times already. My

name is Robert Kaine Jr. Mr. Peterson

was a great friend of my father's and

I've come to see him about a job.

Oh yes. I wonder if you could possibly

come back tomorrow.

I've been coming back tomorrow for over

a week now.

Mr. Peterson is a very busy man.

Why don't you give him the real dope?

The boss has given you the runaround

because of your old man.

Thanks, honey.

Hey, Thomas.

Thomas.

Oh, boss wants to see you.

Oh, thanks.

Your real name had just been called to

my attention, Mr. Dick Kane.

I'm going to let you go. Not because

your name is Kane, but because you

didn't have the courage to admit it. My

father died in jail, an habitual

drunken, but I kept my name because I

happen to be proud of it.

I'm sorry, sir, but it seemed to me the

only thing to do.

If you ever need a recommendation, I'll

be glad to give you one. Good day.

Thank you, sir.

Oh, Bob.

Hello, Mac.

How are you, Bob? Fine.

Have all dinner for us in here.

Oh, thank you, sir.

Well, what's on your mind?

A great deal, sir. I haven't seen you

for nearly a year now, have I?

No. What have you been doing?

Well, I spent most of my time looking

for a job. I couldn't find one because

of my name,

so I changed it.

Today I was fired for changing it.

Well, have you seen this?

He was sentenced the same day as my

father.

Yes, I remember.

Well, what I want to know is if he's

out, why is my father still in?

Because there are certain methods that

no respectable attorney would employ.

Why not? If they work, what's wrong with

them? It's a question of legal ethics.

Oh,

you knew what my father was doing before

they caught up with him, though, didn't

you? Where were your legal ethics then?

I don't think I quite like the trend of

this conversation.

I don't care whether you like it or not.

Why aren't you doing something for him?

If this Shyister Brennan can fix a

parole, why can't you?

Well, for one thing, it costs money.

Oh, a minute ago you were talking about

legal ethics. There's no question of

money, though, when he set you up in

practice. Since when have you been so

interested in getting your father out?

You have a lot of time to think when

you're walking the streets looking for

work. I've come to the conclusion that

maybe my old man was right after all. It

was all these so-called friends of his

who helped me find it out. There isn't

one of them who isn't in his debt one

way or another. Yet today, they're all

ashamed to admit they ever knew him.

Well, some of them perhaps.

And that goes for you, too.

Now, let's forget all about legal

ethics. Are you going to help him or

aren't you?

I've already told you I can't.

All right, then. If you won't, I'll get

somebody who will.

Yeah.

Heat.

He's not home yet.

No, thanks.

You waiting for Brennan, too?

Mhm.

Any idea where he is?

Night court. Likes to pick up cases

there. Says that people that get

arrested at night are more natural.

I thought maybe from the milk bottle

there, he might be away.

Oh, no. He drinks that with his scotch

when he can get the scotch.

I thought he had a pretty good business.

He didn't until the Mick went up. Then

he spent all his time and money trying

to get the Mick parrolled.

The Mick

Mickey Dwire.

Oh.

Oh. Do you know him?

Know him? Nobody knows him.

They say I'm his girl.

Must be pretty good, huh?

Sometimes.

Sometimes it's not so hot.

You see this?

That's all that stands between me and

the WPA.

I'm out of a job, too.

What do you do?

I'm an actress. I used to work at that

joint across the street.

I should think with your connection with

Dwire that you ought to be able to get a

job.

That shows that you don't know them,

Mick. Every guy in town that owns a

joint knows that if they did me any

favors, it would only mean one thing to

him. He'd blow their head off. That's

why I'm starving to death in a mean coat

that I wouldn't dare sell.

Well, I I see where he got his parole.

Yeah, I read that, too. Only I don't

believe anything the papers say. Figured

the judge ought to know.

Who?

Brennan.

Oh,

hey, look. Get a load of the robin.

H

where?

On the window sill.

Oh yeah.

First I've seen this spring.

You're supposed to make a wish.

Oh, yeah.

Mhm.

Bet Jos was about a girl.

No.

What's your name?

Johnny.

They call me Lucky.

Got a match. Johnny.

Never go hungry as long as you got that.

I'd go hungry before I'd part with him.

trouble.

He's stinking.

He always gets stinking when there's

trouble.

Good evening, Lucky. Good evening, my

young friend. You come in now. This tea

will only perform the duty for which

nature designed it.

You got it upside down.

So I have indeed.

Bring in the milk.

I'll get it.

Thank

you. Don't let that worry you. We We

must all stumble over Shakespeare once

in our lives. Give me that. You put the

rest of them in there.

Where's the Mick? Is he out?

Yes. Yes, he's he's out all right, but I

don't know how long he's going to stay

out.

Trouble? I knew it.

Yeah, nothing but trouble.

See who who who's your young friend?

Name's Johnny.

Johnny. Johnny. What?

Apollo. Johnny. Apollo.

Apollo.

Nonsered.

Apollo.

Come on, talk English. Where's the mick?

I've been looking for them everywhere.

Well, you're not going to find them in a

bottle.

Well, maybe maybe you can find them.

I can try.

Well, if you do, bring them here. Hey,

hey, hey. We What does your friend want?

I don't know. Found him outside.

So long, Johnny.

Good luck. Lucky.

Mr. Brennan, I came to you for legal

advice.

In trouble?

Well, not exactly, but I have a friend

who is. He's in state prison. I want to

get him a new trial or arrange about

parole or something.

Well, what's the rap?

Embezzlement.

Embezzlement. It's pretty hard to get a

new trial on embezzlement. When you

embezzle money, you sign a lot of papers

and convict yourself.

Yeah, I hadn't thought about that.

Now, if it was plain or fancy crime, why

come to me? Don't worry if that carpet

could walk in his stagger.

Well, what about a parole

money?

Well, I I've got about $65.

You got what?

$65.

Go away, young man. And don't bother us.

We're not amused.

But sir, step one foot was in that

circle and on thy head. Even it wore a

crown. I'd launched the cursor ro.

What did you say, sir?

Shh. I'm teaching my elephants

Shakespeare now. Don't move and they

won't bother you.

Wake up. Come on. Wake up. What's wrong,

Mickey? I said what's wrong? Police got

baits.

Where they got him?

State Street Drunken Vagrancy.

Well, I can't show up down there. And

you're

Who are you?

He's an old friend of mine. A very old

friend. Johnny.

You want to make a hundred bucks?

Well, I'd like to do him a favor if

that's what you mean.

Get down to the State Street Jail and

spring a guy named John Bates. Spring?

Go is bail. Get him out. That's what I

mean. And bring him here. No, wait a

minute. Bring him to the Paradise Club

right across the street.

Yes, sir.

Hey, wait here.

What do I want with these?

Maybe Bates won't want to come with you,

so

you might have to insist.

Oh, I I don't think I'll need him.

No, take him with you anyway. You might

want to get Wade.

Yes, sir.

Pay the CL.

Say, who put up bail for me?

Mickey Dwire. He wants to see you.

Tell him I'm leaving for Detroit. Oh,

wait a minute. I said Dwire wants to see

you. You can't run out on his bail.

I'll send it to him.

No, you don't. You're coming with me.

Taxi.

Let them talk. Let them think. what they

want.

If it makes them feel happy that way,

I

know

I'll

love you,

no matter

what they

say.

That's well that's soulful. You know

what other numbers have I missed?

Here's one that just came out as you

went in.

Must be an awfully sad song because

that's the way I felt then.

Well, look who's here.

It's the idea of getting drunk and

getting yourself pinched. Well,

they were laying for me.

They're laying for you. They're laying

for all of us. I suppose you shut your

mouth off again.

I didn't say anything.

No. You know, the last time they picked

you up, it cost me 10 grand to square

myself. Now, I don't mind about the

money. But this time, if they'd gotten

one thing out of you, I go back to the

Can't you get it through your hop head

that I'm on parole that I'm not in the

clear?

But I didn't say a word. No, you don't

know whether you said anything or not.

Sit down and shut up.

Okay, Mickey.

Thanks for the trouble.

No trouble at all. Guys who cause me

trouble got to get hurt.

Listen, you're not talking to the local

talent.

I said sit down and shut up.

Mr.

That bail was $200. This is what's left.

Keep it. You did what I told you. I like

guys who do what I tell him.

This is a friend of mine I want you to

meet. Johnny Apollo.

Yeah. Johnny Apollo.

Hi, boys.

Hi.

And he's no mug like you mugs.

This is Lucky.

Yeah. We met up at Brennan's.

Hey,

it's quite a night you're getting.

Harry, get some beef steak. The best in

the house.

Okay. You know the judge. Here, grab a

chair. Thanks.

I don't know how long you've known him,

but I want to tell you something.

There's the sweetest, no good drunk that

ever lived. He never missed a single

visitor's day the whole time I was in

the pan, did you? And he took my mother,

God bless her, 15 miles to mass every

Sunday.

If I ever get married,

he's going to be my best man.

I think that calls for a round. Hey, uh,

Lucky.

Thanks.

Here's to you, oldtimer.

Mickey, I uh I couldn't find any steak.

Just chops and liver. So, one of you

guys didn't starve to death while I was

in Hawk.

Come on with me, Johnny.

You know, when I was a kid, I blew one

of these things open thinking it was a

safe

here. Sit down.

Yes, I'll fix it up.

I just keep that there.

Yeah.

If there's anything better than scotch

than milk, it's buttermilk.

Hey,

see those holes?

Yeah,

them bullet holes.

Yeah, Marty the drummer emptied his gun

into me before I got mine out. I only

shot him once. Right between the eyes.

Here, feel. Feel that lump? Know what

that is?

H.

It's a slug from a 38. Look, I got

another one.

See that?

I got six in me. Got a regular

collection. They called me Mickey the

walking paper weight. Don't they ever

bother you?

Yeah, when it rains someday I'm going

back up to state prison and have them

taken out.

It's a nice cheerful place for an

operation.

Well, you see the prison dock's a friend

of mine. He took care of me when I got

shot. He didn't take the slugs out then

because I caught pneumonia.

I have a friend up there, too.

Who hasn't? What's his name?

Robert Kaine.

Pops Kane. Who meant money bags?

That's the one.

Why sure I knew him well. See, now there

is the grandest guy that ever lived.

You'd never know he was a millionaire.

And he was the only con in the joint who

didn't claim he'd been framed. He

wouldn't take anything soft. No, he goes

to work in a boiler plant, you know,

with one of those pneumatic drills. They

chew your head off, you know, and they

leave your your hands as raw as that

piece of steak there. You never heard a

squawk out of him. Mm- They just wrap a

rag around his dukes and go do it again.

What a guy. He could take it.

How well do you know him?

He paid my way through college.

Oh, I bet you went first class.

Yes, I did.

What are you doing now, Johnny?

Oh, just looking for a job, that's all.

So, I can pay him back. You wouldn't

want to be paid back.

I'd like to anyway.

Well, you quit worrying. You got a job.

You're working for me. Now, stick that

steak in your eye. Come on.

How about a little clarinet with this?

This is the beginning of the end.

And I can see it in your eyes in

everything you do.

Oh, you're afraid to tell me that we're

through.

But I can tell by looking at you that

this is the beginning of the end.

You just give yourself away with

everything you say.

Though you never told me we must part,

still I can read the writing on your

heart.

Why is it now when I hold your hand?

There's some little something that I

miss.

What has become of the warmth in your

smile?

And where's that little mischief

in your good night kiss? Oh,

this is the beginning of the end.

I can see the thrill is gone. Why let it

linger on? Why lie to me and say it

isn't so?

For when I hold you in my arms, I know

that this

this is the beginning

of the end.

to the fourth race at Antonia. Sweet

Priscilla going strong. And at the turn,

it's still Sweet Priscilla. Sweet

Priscilla with Rock Totty second and

Condiment third. In the stretch, it's

Sweet Priscilla all by herself. At the

finish, it's Sweet Priscilla.

Sweet Brazil. Had it right in the nose.

Come on. Kick

over Hot Patty. There it is. Sweet

Brazil. The winner the place.

Nick seems pretty fond of our young

friend, doesn't he?

You think the kid will reform the mix

or vice versa.

How'd you do?

Not bad.

Look at all this. I put the guy in

business and now he doesn't want to cut

me in.

Isn't there something you generally do

about that? The guy's married to my

sister. What can I do?

Hey, Paul. Hi, Paul.

Hello, Mickey. Glad to see you.

Want you to meet a friend of mine.

This is Johnny Apollo. Johnny, shake

hands with my brother-in-law.

Oh, hello.

How are you? Always glad to meet a

friend of Mickey's. Uh, just make

yourself at home. Come in anytime. I'll

see you later, Mickey.

That's him.

That's the guy. He thinks he's the big

shot. My sister wasn't so daffy about

him. I'd like to shove his teeth right

down his throat.

Would you really like a cut in this

place?

Well, naturally, a guy gets a little

sentimental about such things.

You know,

I'm going to stick this whole one on a

dog in the next race that can't lose.

At Jamaica, the seventh race,

they're running. Coming by the stand for

the first time, it's Anaconda out in

front by a length. Slippery Elm is

second by a half and French Pete. At the

quarter, it's Anaconda by four lengths,

Slippery Elm by a half, French Pete by

two lengths, and Mima. Around the far

turn, it's Anaconda by five lengths,

Morima moving into second by a head.

French Pete is third by two lengths and

Slippery Elm. Coming down the stretch,

it's Anaconda and Mora. And it's going

to be a driving finish.

Mima's moving out in front and pulling

away. Anaconda goes to the whip. Prince

Pete is slipping up to the line of

finish. It's Mima by three lengths.

Anaconda by a half. And Prince Pete.

Where's Slippery Elm?

Slippery Elm holding in the stretch. And

the finish.

Come on, Dad. Help me figure out.

You better get lucky and get out of

here. Place is going to be raided,

right?

How do you know?

I just called the cops. gave him the

address.

Who are you?

No, wait a minute. Shh.

Cuz I don't know much about this sort of

thing, but it just occurred to me that

maybe you could prove to your

brother-in-law that you got an in with

the cops by warning him that there's

going to be a raid.

He wouldn't believe me.

He'll believe it after they're here.

Then he might believe that you got an in

with the higherups. He'd be awful

anxious to cut you in.

Yeah, but the cops, it's kind of raw.

Isn't it?

You know, kid, you and I ain't going to

get along.

You get lucky and get out of here.

Hey, Lucky. Johnny's going to take you

home.

But

we'll talk about that later.

Come on, judge. You and I got some

business now. Where is dear brother

Paul?

What did you wish that time?

What time?

Remember the robin?

Oh, yeah.

What did you wish?

I wish that Mickey would get out of

jail. It's the one thing I wanted most

then.

Now, what did you wish?

Oh, I can guess. You wish that friend of

yours is out, too. That rich guy.

What are you talking about?

You're not fooling me. Mickey told me

all about you and him.

Yeah, that's what I wished.

I guess that's what I want most of all.

Is that why you're playing around with

Mickey?

Listen, Johnny. I don't know how bad you

wanted, but don't pay too much for it.

What is this? A sermon?

I feel sort of irresponsible for you.

For me?

Yeah. Till you rang that doorbell at

Brennan's that night, you'd never done a

dishonest thing in your life.

Oh, you might be able to fool Mickey,

but you can't fool me in.

I can take care of myself.

Yeah, a lot of people think that and

they wind up with a state taking care of

them.

I started out to do something and I'm

going to do it.

Some people get too smart for

themselves.

Oh, Johnny, I don't mean to butt in.

All right, you haven't.

Let's cut it out. I hate fights.

I didn't know we'd had one.

felt like one. But I forgive you.

Come on, let's make up.

Kiss me if you want.

Did you get my letter?

Yes, and I was very glad to get it.

You're looking well.

Perhaps it's the diet and the regular

hours.

I really forgotten what it meant to have

an appetite.

You remember how I used to hate limema

beans?

Oh, yes.

Now when I get them after a hard day's

work, I love them.

Being in prison has its compensations, I

suppose.

What do they What have they got you

doing now?

Oh, I'm in the boiler shop.

Now that I've worn my calluses, they

tell me I'm in line for promotion

for

I always knew you'd make good.

Tell me about yourself.

Oh, there isn't much to tell.

I've taken your advice and grown up. I

think it was all your friends that

helped me do that.

I bet I have more friends in here than I

have on the outside.

You'd win that bet.

You got a job?

Yes.

What are you doing?

Well,

one minute.

One minute.

Maybe I better get to the good news

quickly.

How would you like to get a parole?

parole.

I McGlaclin said I wasn't eligible yet.

This isn't McGlin. I've been working

this out with or with some other friends

of yours.

You really think there's a chance?

It's a good one. If it comes off, you'll

be out of here in a few weeks.

You're not joking.

I can stand this place when I know I've

got to stay here, but with the hope of

getting out. Then don't you worry.

Everything's practically set.

Sorry, Bob. I'll have to break it up.

Goodbye.

Goodbye.

Mind if I give you some advice, pop?

No, go ahead.

You've got a good record here, and

you'll get plenty of time off for good

behavior. Now, why don't you let nature

take its course instead of playing

around with a rat like that?

What do you mean?

You know what I mean. You were talking

parole with Apollo, weren't you?

Who's Apollo?

Don't try to kid me. Johnny Apollo,

Mickey Dwire's front man.

Oh, no. You're mistaken.

No, I'm not. Didn't I see him with my

own eyes come in here with a mick?

I know. He's

as big a rat as Dwire, only smoother.

Come on.

There's your end.

What'd he say?

He squapped as only a guilty guy can

squ.

Yeah. Until a judge showed him those old

contracts with his signature on it.

That ought to be a lesson to both of

you. Be careful what you sign.

You know, you're going to have enough

though to pay old man Kane back before

you know it.

Yeah.

me. I'm going to put mine into an

annuity. You know, in this business, a

guy should always put something away for

his old age.

Hello, Lucky.

Hello.

Hello. Hey, Johnny. You know what holds

that dress up?

Yep.

Now, don't go giving away any trade

secret.

All right. What does whale bone?

Who told you?

My old man.

He must be quite a guy, your old man.

He is.

Here, sit down.

There we are. Now, if you'll excuse me,

I have to run along. Good night.

Give me that racing phone.

Hey, how long would it take me to learn

how to talk English?

Why?

I was just asking.

I want to see Mr. Robert Kaine, please.

Well, who shall I say wants to see him?

His son.

Heat.

Heat.

Who did you say you wanted to see?

Mr. Robert Kane. I'm his son.

Well, Mr. Kain says he has no son.

They say that Fred

gets a grand

tapping his feet.

And is the door

made a million in it? Oh,

isn't that sweet?

But far beneath the notice of the noble

ballet roose lies the germ of revolution

that will someday cook its goose. for a

dime a dozen. Now you get arabowette

bucket wing liy hop

he chicky the cop dancing for nles and

dime.

What a show you'll see under each

marquee along about 1130

dancing for

those ninskies from every low down slum.

They're raging muffins and they're

dirty. You saw Hamlet. What did you see?

Nothing that's worth your 550. You heard

Ta. What did you hear? It may be a

flippy but couldn't be nifty as down

around that square known as time.

When you've done the Met and the Guild,

you find a ship that you ain't been

thrilled. Watch those urgent

urchins dancing

dancing for nles and

request your number

or will you have a hunger?

Who said?

Well, there's your

G. Or is it in the key of C? Whatever

key it happens to be, they're dancing

for nickel and dimens

around that square known as time in

Manhattan. So get yourself a ringside

seat out in the middle of the street and

watch those urgent

watch those

muffies

dancing for

you You know, every time she sings that

song.

How are you, Mickey?

How are you, Sergeant?

Oh, I'm fine. Just fine. Remember how I

used to be all crippled up with

arthritis? Well, I just had a couple of

teeth pulled. I never felt better.

You didn't come around here to tell us

about your arthritis.

No, as a matter of fact, I didn't. I've

got a little present for you, Mickey.

Yeah.

What's that?

Oh, here, Johnny. You can take a look

for yourself.

I've got one for you, too.

I I've got the car outside.

I don't want to embarrass you boys, so

I'll just wait out there for you.

And uh don't be too long. You're

pretty smartford, aren't you?

Well, well, everybody's here. Yeah. You

can come along with Mickey.

What is all this?

What do you think it is? We're pinched.

Come here.

Get a hold of Brennan quick. Tell him to

get down to headquarters. We'll need a

habius corpus.

Say, isn't there enough trouble already

without you getting plastered?

The Mick's been in tighter spots than

this before.

I know, but I'm not worried about the

Mick.

Yes, I know. But he who dances with the

devil must pay somebody. I I forget who.

What do you mean by that?

I mean, the journey's name has been

signed to a lot of checks and they're

not made payable to the community chest.

Since when has given money a crime?

Since the new grand jury's been sworn

in,

what'll happen to him if they send him

up? Well,

he'll probably get about 5 years and

acquire a taste for hard tack and chory.

I don't mean that.

I mean, what's going to happen to him

inside?

Of all things, not to have been born is

best.

Oh, if I could only get my hands on the

first guy, that'd call me lucky.

Now, it's all right for me to say that,

but not for you. You're young and you're

beautiful. Besides, you're in love.

Who says I'm in love?

You do. Every time you open your mouth.

He is swell.

Swell is hardly the word to describe

Johnny.

Look,

we got to find some way to help him.

We can't help him. Only one man can. The

man who hurt him. It's his father.

His father?

Yes. Robert Kane.

Say, is there anything you don't know?

Well, I could figure that one out even

when I was drunk.

Let me see.

Kane comes up for parole pretty soon. It

shouldn't be difficult to get them

together.

Ah, that don't make sense to me. How can

we get them together if he's being

parrolled and Johnny goes up?

Maybe Johnny doesn't go up.

You mean

you mean you might be able to fix it?

I think so.

Oh, go away. Go away, Jesse. I'm I'm I'm

going to be busy.

Okay.

Lucky.

You're not getting into anything over

your head, are you?

No. Honest. I'm old enough to know when

I'm not playing in my own league.

Well, anybody that plays ball in your

league has got to play a pretty fair

brand of ball.

Now, scram.

Hello, Mickey.

This joint smells like a brewery. You

getting ready to go on a bat?

No.

Hey, what do you got there?

Some of your papers.

What are you going to do with them?

Well, why take chances at time like

this? I'm going to put them in the bank.

Oh,

yeah. That's a good idea. That's what I

thought.

So long, judge. So long.

Just have fun. Why don't you tell him?

How badly do you want Mickey Dwire?

Enough.

Would you be interested in making a

deal?

There's addictive phone in this office,

Mr. Brennan. Well, I've got to take

chances if I want to get him off.

I've got the records on every one of his

gang. Now, if you're willing to drop the

charges against Dwire, I'll help you

build up a case against the rest of his

men that'll send them up for 20 years.

I'm not interested in them.

How about Johnny Apollo? Don't you want

him?

No, I want

Well, I'm sorry I took up so much of

your time. I thought you might possibly

be interested in making a deal of some

sort.

Now, if you'd come in here and ask me if

I'd be willing to drop my charges

against Apollo for evidence on Dwire.

Well, I'm Dw's attorney. You're not

suggesting that I cross him, are you?

Oh, I'm not suggesting anything. I'm

merely giving you the only basis on

which I'd be willing to make a deal.

Well, supposing I do cross him, what do

I get out of it?

My promise that the beneficiary in your

deal, whoever he is, will not be brought

to trial. Whatever arrangements you make

with him, of course, is none of my

business.

Well, Apollo can't pay me the money that

Dwire can.

That's your worry. Have nothing to add

to what I've already said.

Well, a half a loaf is better than none.

You've made a deal.

There's his deposit slips, his bank

book, and his private calling list in

the police department.

I think you'll find everything there you

need.

And Apollo goes free.

Attention

10 minutes.

I'll be seeing you.

Come on.

Come on.

What's the matter? You seeing the judge

today?

I guess he's out trying to find out

about that new evidence.

Yeah, I guess that's it.

We finally caught up with him.

Where?

Anderson's Turkish bath sobering up.

Tell them to keep that dance going for

10 minutes longer.

Lay still.

Lay still.

stumbled with one foot within that

circle and all I had in wore a crown. I

launched the face of Rome.

Heat. Heat.

Will you come with me a moment, Mr.

Apollo?

Haven't you guys got any sense of

decency?

That's all right, Mickey. I'll go along.

You know who I am?

I think so.

Apollo, we want to know if you can tell

us where Mickey Dwer was between 11:00

11:15 night before last.

Night before?

Oh, he was with me

the whole time.

Yeah.

You'd swear to it?

Certainly, I'd swear to it.

You're all alike. You'd swear your life

away to Alibaba rat like I have. Now

wait a minute. If you want to call him a

rat, bring him in here and tell him to

his face. If you're talking to me, talk

to me and leave my friends out of it.

I'm talking to you because you're his

alibi.

Alibi for what?

For murdering Brennan.

Why should he kill his best friend?

I suppose you don't know that Brennan

was getting ready to sell outwire.

It's awfully easy to slander a dead man.

I suppose you weren't in on the same

deal.

I don't know what you're talking about.

He doesn't know what I'm talking about.

Look, I'm your friend. You don't want to

go to jail. You tell me the truth about

Brennan's death and I'll drop my charges

against you.

Why should I fall for that? If I'm going

up, all right, I'm going up. I'm not

going to perjure myself so you can frame

Dwire.

It's your last chance. Are you with us

or you're with Dwire?

I'm with Dwire cuz he's frankly out for

himself and he admits it. There are a

lot of people that are a lot cheaper

than Dwire.

All right, get out.

I'm getting out. I need fresh air

anyway.

Someday one of those people will tell me

something that remotely resembles the

truth. I'm going to drop dead with a

shock. If

Apollo sticks to his story, you'll never

get Dire for murder.

No, but thanks to Brennan, we got enough

on him to send him up for life already.

What about Apollo? Do we let him go?

No, he's had his chance.

We made a deal. We owe it to Brennan.

To Brennan, not Apollo. You can't pay a

debt to a dead man.

He was trying to help us.

Help us?

What?

He thought we were in love. Can you beat

it?

That's what you think. But the perfect

prison ain't been built yet. Now get

this. The last time I was up, I noticed

the prisoner's got an outside gate. You

see here? There's your street.

Mhm.

Every night at 8:30, they open that

gate. They let the laundry trucks in.

And one night, we'll be rolling out

right along with them.

Yeah. But they know that's a weak spot

as well as we do. It's going to be just

as hard to get into the laundry as it is

to get out of jail.

So, all right. So, once we get in the

laundry, as good as out, ain't we? Huh?

Sure. Now,

I think I got this thing lit. You see

that ventilating system? 3-ft tubes.

Plenty of room. Look.

Say Mickey. You just want these from the

laundry into the library.

You think I've been telling you?

Now, get this. It's a cinch to get in

the prison library any night after

child. They know I'm nuts about reading.

Johnny's all broken out with education.

Now, what what about me?

Well, you can get him along. Now, get

this. Come here, Joe.

That gate opens at 8:30 sharp. We'll be

in the laundry right on time. And one of

those trucks will be ours.

Yeah, but how do we get it?

How do we get it? You hijack one up the

road. You drive in a gate when the

others do.

If you ask me, you don't need to arrange

no break. You'll beat this rap easy.

Look, will you let me worry about that

and keep your trap shut?

Joe, what you got to worry about is

time. Everything's got to go off like

that.

What you doing? Playing games.

Oh, hello, Johnny. Hello, Mickey. Lucky.

Hello, Johnny. Say, if you're through

with these blueprints, I got to get them

back before somebody misses them. We're

all through.

Okay, I'll drop these off and I'll meet

you at the courthouse. Check.

Johnny,

are you in on this break?

Yeah.

What for?

Cuz I don't figure I'm spending the best

years of my life in prison.

If they send you up at all, it'll just

be for three or four years.

That's too much. I've seen what a couple

of years can do to one man. I'm not

going to let the same thing happen to

me.

You ought to be thinking about what'll

happen to you if you get away with it.

Listen, when I want your advice, I'll

ask for it.

Look,

he's using you, Johnny. Just using you.

Now, get this through your head.

Mickey's not running me, and neither are

you.

I'm sorry, Lucky.

It's okay.

Picking on you of all people.

Forget it, will you?

Haven't you caused enough trouble

already? Why don't you let the kid

alone?

It's time you guys are down to the

courthouse. I'll be along later.

Uh, don't be too much later.

Now, what's eating you?

You know it's a truth. You're using him.

All right. What if I am? From now on,

I'm not worrying about anybody but

Mickey Dwire. See, if he can be useful

to me, I'll use him or you or anybody.

What's it to you anyway?

It's plenty to me.

You're stuck in a kid, ain't you?

What if I am?

Maybe I ought to be annoyed, but I'm

not. He's got too much class for a cheap

damn like you. You'll come crawling

back.

Not after Brennan.

What about Brennan?

Do I look dumb? Brennan's trying to get

Johnny off. The DA's got new evidence on

Mickey Dwire and Brennan gets bumped

off. I suppose that's a coincidence.

Was Johnny in on that deal?

No, but I was.

You were?

Yes, I was. Why don't you stick an ice

pick in me? Well, you dirty a little

double crossing.

You're thinking of using your

information?

Not the way you think.

You leave your clothes.

I know you leave your personal effects

in the dressing room.

Leave your clothes and personal effects

in the dressing room. 38.

What's your name?

Ace.

First name?

Harry.

Former occupation?

I'm an engraver.

Name please.

Apollo Johnny.

Your real name?

I haven't any

former occupation?

Embasler. Second generation.

name please.

Mr. Barry.

Yes.

Would you sit down?

I don't think I've ever had the

pleasure. I'm a friend of Johnny

Apollo's.

I'm not interested in any friends of

his.

I know he's your son, Mr. Kaine.

He seems to have forgotten it.

He never forgot. He put his soul in Hawk

to try and get you out of here. That's

how he got mixed up with Dwire.

Are you asking me to believe this?

I was there the first time he came down

to see a shady lawyer to try and swing a

parole for you. He kept getting in

deeper and deeper all the time. He never

had a wrong thought in his head. What

kind of a father do you call yourself

anyway?

What's all this got to do with you?

I think that I love him more than you

do.

Only I can't stop him from making a mess

out of his life. And you can.

Perhaps I can make this a little easier

for you.

I think he means just as much to me as

he does to you.

Might be stupid to try and talk in here,

but there's something I must tell you.

Well, there are no secrets in jail.

I've got to take a chance.

What I'm telling you is between us.

If you can't do anything about it, just

forget it.

There's going to be a jail break tonight

and Johnny's in on it.

Break?

How do you know?

I've known it all along.

I didn't know when until today. They're

going through the library.

Library?

To get to the laundry where a truck will

be waiting.

When?

Tonight between 8 and 8:30.

Then they're going out through the

ventilating system.

Who's they?

Johnny and Mickey Dwire and some other

guy.

Johnny thinks that the Mick is his best

friend because he's never let him down.

But he doesn't know that the Mick had a

lot of other friends, too. Brennan was

one.

Was that the lawyer?

He was killed by Mickey Dwire

just because he was trying to help

Johnny.

You tell him that.

Tell him that Lucky told you,

he'll know it's the truth.

Did you say he said he?

There's still time enough to stop him.

You've got to

listen, Mr. Kane.

If he gets away with it, he'll have to

go in hiding.

And I'll have him for the rest of his

life because

I'll go and hide with him.

If you stop him, you'll have him.

I'll never see him again.

And I'm telling you to stop him.

His cockeyed handkerchief has lipstick

all over.

There's no reason why you shouldn't see

him again.

I'm leaving town.

Where too?

As far as 20 bucks and a mink coat will

take me.

Lord.

Oh, whoops.

Sit down there, Papa. You won't get

hurt. Here's your guess.

Wait a minute. I've caused you enough

harm already, but this is one thing I'm

not going to let you do. You're not

going to get out of here. Listen to me.

I've listened to you once too often.

If you go through with this, you're

finished.

It's a little late to think of that,

isn't it?

I'm not going to stand by and see you

throw your life away. What's the matter?

Can't you take it?

Not this. You're not going

now. Wait a minute. Don't make me do

anything that I'll be sorry for.

Just keep out of my way.

Come on.

Don't go with him. He'll cross you the

same as he crossed Brennan. He killed

Brennan. Your best friend. That's the

kind of a man he is.

Crazy.

It's the truth. Rocky told me. Go on,

Mickey. Tell him. Tell him the truth.

Tell him you killed Brennan.

I thought I told you to sit down.

Come on, Johnny. Hurry up.

There's a jailbreak. It's starting in

the last.

Come on, Johnny.

Yes.

Breaking the library. Breaking the

library. Breaking the library. Breaking

the library.

Breaking the library. Break in the

library. Break in the library.

Get in on him.

Come on. Leave the gun. Let him take a

rack.

South tower. They're in the laundry.

They're in the laundry. They're

yellow.

They're in the laundry. South tower.

They're in the laundry. South tower.

South tower. They're in the laundry.

Get back to

Hello. Hello.

Hello. We're in the library. Send the

doctor on the warning.

Where's my father? I'm taking you to

Hey, what happened?

That's the guy that shot Pop King while

he was phoning.

What are his chances, doctor? He's been

unconscious practically all the time.

He keeps murmuring about his son. Yes,

Kane has a son. We look him up and

notify him.

Work on Apollo. Find out where they got

those guns and how.

As long as I've been here, every time

they've had an execution, it's made me

sick to my stomach. But if Kane dies,

I'd be willing to pull the switch on

Apollo myself.

I've got

a son.

Let me out of here.

Let me out of here. I've got to get to

my father. I tell you that I'm

Shut up.

Ain't no one can hear you out here but

me. And I'm deep.

Come on, you. The warden wants to see

it.

Is this the man?

Yes, sir.

Is my father all right?

Tell him your name, Johnny. Your real

name?

Robert Kane, Jr.

Is he going to live?

Get me Dr. Brown.

If you're Kane's son, why did you shoot

him?

I didn't. Hello, doctor. Is Kane

conscious? I want to see him.

Long enough to make an identification

and to answer one question.

Yes. Right away.

We'll go over to the hospital.

just ain't here.

You'll be all right, Johnny.

Don't mind if I call you Johnny. That's

a way I'll always know you.

All right, but don't be too long.

Dead.

Dead.

Dead.

Dead.

Hello.

Goodbye.

Hello, Captain. Good to see you.

You're looking fine.

I guess those limema beans agreed with

me, too, huh?

Did you do what I asked you? Yes,

Lucky.

Hello, Jackie.

Heat. Heat.
