All language subtitles for The Life of Jimmy Dolan -VO -1933 La seconda aurora ENG

I just won, and there ain't a mark on
me. I'm not a mark.

I'm coming home right away now, and I
got the money, and you can get that

in Yonkers.

That's well to think of your mother,
boy, but don't forget the public. The

public. Oh, yeah. Well, excuse me,
folks, but you know how it is. You know,

mother comes first, even before all you
people have been so nice to me on my way

up to the championship.

Well, I've got it now, and I've brought
it back to the USA, and, well, I'm

feeling salubrious. That is, I'm feeling
swell. I'm feeling swell.

Here's to the champ.

Come on, Jimmy, have a drink.

Oh, no thanks.

Now, don't imbibe. That is drink. I
don't drink. Clean living, that's what

it. Clean living, right you are.

Exercise discretion, will you? That is,
look what you're doing. Yes, champ. I

know what you mean.

I exercise discretion.

I just didn't know that spot was so
there.

Hey, wait a minute.

Oh, okay, he's all right. Come on in,
kid.

Oh, thanks, Doc. Thanks.

Hello, Scrooge. You see the fight?

Sure, I saw the fight.

My name's not Screwy, young fella.

Remember that.

Okay, Screwy. I'm sorry.

Can I call you Philo Vance? My name's
Phylaxer. Sure it's not Sherlock Holmes?

Listen to me, young fella.

I'm here to do you a favor.

That your watch?

Oh, yeah. Where'd you find it? Right
over there on that table.

Oh, gee, that's swell. My mother gave it
to me.

Valuable, isn't it? Valuable.

Say, this ticket cost me a thousand
bucks. Look at all those rubies and

in there. Well, I wouldn't leave it
laying around on dressing room tables.

strap it on for me, will you, Chief?
Sure. Oh, the other wrist. Oh, yes, the

other wrist. He's a Southpaw kid.

Yeah.

I know he's a Southpaw. First notch,
Chief. Yeah, first notch.

Hmm. At that, it's funny, the way you
handle yourself in there.

Your left hand like that, with your
right hand sticking out.

Ain't many Southpaws.

Not champs, they're not.

Oh, say, Doc.

Get my roll, will you, and slip my case
note? Sure. No, thanks.

I was just doing my duty, that's all.

He saw his duty and he did it.

Well, I guess I'll be going along.

So long, fellas. So long, Scrooge.

Hey,

here you go. This way, Faxon.

All right, thanks for coming here. All
right, see you later.

Boy Scout.

He's a funny old geezer. Pretty foxy,
though.

Fluxy, what do you mean? He used to be
known as one of the smartest detectives

on the force.

You'd never guess at the look at him.
Well, he lost his nerve.

He's afraid to make a pinch anymore.

What do you mean? Afraid somebody will
level on him? No, that ain't it. Afraid

he'll be wrong.

Oh, it's funny for a cop.

You'd feel that way too, kid, if you'd
sent an innocent man to the chair.

Did Fluxer do that? Well, he didn't send
him to the chair exactly. He pinched a

guy for murder.

Swore he'd seen him with a dead man in a
joint earlier in the evening.

The guy was convicted and they burnt
him.

The giggle comes a year later when the
real murderer confesses.

Poor old Flex has never quite gotten
over having sent the wrong man to the

seat. Okay, champ.

I sort of feel sorry for the old mugget
back there. They've got him down in the

morgue now running errands.

But he still thinks he can come back,
make the great pinch, honor and glory

all that.

Oh, hello, AC. Hello, Jimmy.

Great work.

Oh, thanks very much.

Excuse the way I'm dressed. Well, we
will if you'll come to the casino with

The mayor's giving a party. Will you
come? Oh, it's terribly nice, but I

think I can, really. Oh, please.

Oh, well, you see, I've got to get home
to my mother. If I don't get home right

after a fight and tell her all about it,
why... Well, you know how mothers are.

Tonight, youth was served again.

Young Jimmy Dolan won the light
heavyweight championship of the world,

seventh round of a scheduled 15 -round
battle. His right jabbed with lightning

precision. His left had the power of a
heavyweight.

No booze, no women, said the new
champion.

America can be well proud of Jimmy
tonight, who, by his victory, vindicates

sponsors of this program, the Health
Biscuit Corporation of America.

Turn it off, honey.

11 p .m. Eastern Standard Time. Oh, the
music will be on in a minute. Now, let

me listen. Wait a minute.

Well, then, come on.

Let's have itsy -bitsy drink, little
baby.

Will you stop talking that baby talk? I
don't like it. I tell you, I don't like

it.

Naughty bad man, stop doing plate wikis.
Every time you get cock, I just start

talking about baby slop. Now, will you
stop?

Sorry, palsy, I couldn't keep him out.

You said, big boy, you can keep us out.
Who are you, big fighting fellow?

My name is Budgie, and this is my
boyfriend, Mr. McGee.

Well, I've heard a lot about you, Mr.
Dolan.

Breaking training, huh?

Huh? How are you?

Fine. Oh, come on now, you buy us a
little drink.

Oh, we can't stay here like that. Let's
go in and have a little drink and

something to eat and have a good start.

What's the idea of asking these people
up here?

Don't you know when I throw a party, I
don't want anybody hanging around?

Oh, honey, Budgie's all right. I didn't
think she'd bring anybody else with her.

Oh, you fighting men, come here. I want
to tell you something.

Oh, be a good sport.

Here you go, Mickey.

Now, tell me, why can't girls be prize
fighters?

I used to have a boyfriend. He was a
price fighter, too. And I used to work

with him. See? Look.

I can hit. Look. See?

Oh, you can't take it, huh? Oh, come on.
Come on. Try and lick me. Try and lick

me. Look. Look. Look. I'm wide open.

Well, if I were you, I'd keep it quiet.

There. Hey.

Come on. Hold it. Come on. Fight me.
Hold it. Come on. Fight me.

Oh,

look at his mouth.

Oh, Nick.

What's the matter with that big boy?

What's the matter with him?

Oh, come out here, Blondie. Come out
here. Forget about it. Have a little

and have some fun. Oh, she's all right.
She's not all right.

What's the matter?

Where's Mumsy's baby? Still where is
Mumsy? Will you please stop talking that

baby talk? What do you think I am, made
of stone after all these weeks and then

you go after me? Well, then you was
lonesome for a ditzy, bitzy baby.

Will you please stop talking that baby
talk?

I'll talk all the baby talk I want, Mr.

Southpaw.

Oh, come on, give me some caviar. I love
caviar. Tell me, what makes caviar?

Does it grow?

It's roe. Oh, it does grow.

Where does it grow? I said it's roe.
Fish eggs. Fish lay them.

Who lays them?

Fish, you mug.

Me smoke to you, kid.

Hey, listen, that's my friend you're
talking to like that.

Don't put the swell on yourself.
Nobody's got any friend.

Oh. Oh, I'm your friend, Ray.

What do you mean?

I'm your friend.

You?

Yeah, you're my friend. Go away. Go
away.

Well, I'm your friend, Jimmy boy.

Yeah. Yeah, you're my friend, too.

For 50%. Oh, no, that ain't right.

What ain't right?

Everything ain't right.

Yeah, sure.

Oh, you get this right, see?

You want my girl and your tickets, or if
you thought you could get away with it,

you'd take my roll and my watch and
everything I got, too.

No, I wouldn't do that. Sure you would.

Anybody would. Oh, so you don't believe
there's any such thing as friendship?

Loyalty? Nobody does anything for
anybody unless there's something in it.

If they do, they're a sucker.

Except your mother.

There's a liar.

My mother. My dear old mother.

Hello, mother. Are you listening?

Are you listening, Mom? I'll be home.

Oh, my mother. That's a laugh, isn't it?
I haven't even got a mother.

No? No, I haven't got a mother.

No, that's just a line for this sucker.
Shut up, you fool.

Don't insist.

Mothers are the bomb. Now, there's a
good headline for your paper, Charlie.

What'd she say? She said, this mug's a
reporter.

Report it? Yes.

Morning graphic.

Come on, Bucky. Let's go home.

You know, I'm one of the few guys who's
always felt that you were on a square

with that line of yours. It's a good
story.

I'm going to write it up. Come on,
Bucky.

Oh.

Oh, yeah? No, you're not. Wait a minute.
Look here. Will you please stay out of

this? Ah.

So you're going to write it up, huh?

Sure, I'm going to write it up.

I'm a reporter and that's my business.
Wait a minute.

You're here as a guest. You can't take
advantage of that.

Advantage, that means... Yeah, I know
what it means.

Good night.

If he writes what you said, they'll kid
you out of the racket, champ.

Don't worry, he ain't gonna write it up.

Now, wait a minute, pal.

Why do you take none to write that up,
huh?

That's one thing I don't do. Come on, be
a good fellow. Can't do it. Trying to

get a tramp out of me, huh?

Sorry. Hey, wait a minute. Do it for a
pal, will you? For a pal.

A guy that doesn't ring for a pal is a
sucker.

You know that.

Yeah.

And that goes for every time I see you
two.

Try and make a sucker out of me, huh?

Come on, get up out of it, fella.

That's what you get for butting in
places you don't belong.

Come on, come on, get up, will you?

Come on.

What's the matter?

He's dead.

He's dead.

He's dead. No, look out.

Why'd you do this?

Keep it quiet.

You want the whole world in here on us?

Come on. We've got to get out of here.
Jimmy.

He's bathed out.

Jimmy.

Go on. Go on. Get your thing.

I get it.

Yeah.

Come on, get him out of here.

Where should we take him? Off to the
training camp.

Take it easy.

You have to go away.

Jimmy.

Jimmy, wake up.

Jimmy.

Jimmy. Didn't I tell you? There's nobody
here. They all went into town for the

fight. We'll be back for a couple of
days.

Let's park them here and beat it. Come
on. No.

I'm going to stick. I've got to stick.

All right, stick.

All the thanks you'll get.

When that dame wakes up, she's going to
say that he did it.

And if they take him, they're going to
take us.

But we didn't do anything.

Yeah? Well, we were there, weren't we?
You think he's going to say we didn't do

anything? You think he's going to take
the rap while we walk out? But we didn't

do anything.

Oh, shut up. You said that before. I'm
explaining it to you. It ain't whether

you did something. It's can you prove
it. Can you prove you didn't do

He won't accuse us. No.

He'll go to the chair for you, won't he?

Chair? Yeah.

Yeah, certainly.

Listen.

Didn't you hear him say he's no sucker?

He said you'd take his roll. Yeah,
certainly.

And

his

watch, too.

He said I'd take that, too, didn't he?

Yeah, and I'm going to take his girl.

I'm no sucker, neither.

Okay.

Reporter killed in Jimmy Dolan's
apartment.

All cars look for license number one.
You, as in universe, dash, four, two,

dash, nine, one.

Possibly traveling with his girl, Goldie
West.

Wanted, Jimmy Dolan.

Come on, give me a drink, too.

Sure.

That mug, he's doing 60.

I'll bet he'll hit 70.

Ah.

Ah, play me for a sucker.

What are you so excited about? You saw
the papers.

I thought you were dead.

That's funny.

Don't talk like that, will you?

You killed this man, McGee. I didn't
kill him.

Then what are you doing here?

I came to find out what it was all
about. They're saying I'm dead and all

Well, the wristwatch. Yeah, I know. I
read it in the papers. I can read you

He stole my watch. He stole my role.

He stole my girl.

Serves him right.

Sorry for Goldie, though.

She was okay.

She wouldn't have double -crossed me.

Now it's him.

Do you know that you're guilty of the
murder of this newspaper man? Will you

stop talking like that?

I... I just hit him, that's all.

Yeah, you just hit him. And he's dead.

And he a newspaper man.

You're as good as dead. What do you have
to talk like that for?

You're as good as dead. Will you stop
talking like that? All right, all right,

all right.

Officially, you're dead.

You're that man that burned up in the
auto.

Now, you came to me for advice. This is
my advice.

Stay dead.

Let Jimmy Dolan stay dead.

You'll be somebody else. Be some other
name.

You mean... You mean like Jack Doggerty?
Okay, Jack Doggerty.

Now get out of New York.

Yeah.

Yeah, get out of New York.

Yeah.

I... I need some dough. I... I got ten
grand at

the Irving Trust Bank.

You're not thinking of going to that
bank, don't you understand? It's in a

vault. Nobody will see me. All I got to
do is open up the box. Don't be crazy,

kid. Where's that key? I know how to get
it.

That's a good idea.

Here, go to this address.

Say that till you hear from me.

Keep out of sight.

Here's the key.

Keep out of sight.

Sam.

I'm broke. I ain't got a dime.

Here's $10.

What can I do with $10?

Where do you think you're going? To
nightclubs?

Oh, I see. Well, when am I going to see
you? Tomorrow?

Yeah, tomorrow.

Now, listen, kid.

Don't be seen by anybody.

No. Because if you're seen, they'll try
you and convict you of murder. Will you

stop talking like that? All right, all
right. I'm just telling you.

Grow a beard.

Do something to change your appearance.

Yeah. Yeah, well, I'll do something.

I didn't figure that... Keep your head
down, kid.

Down.

I get you.

And therefore, we find the death of
Jimmy Dolan, Goldie West, due to

causes while evading arrest.

The meeting is over.

And that's that.

A reporter's been murdered, and before
the papers can make a howl, we got the

murderer. I'm glad that's over,
Inspector Ennis.

Oh. Can I talk to you a minute? Yeah,
what do you want?

That man burned in the automobile.

I don't think that was Jimmy Dolan.

You don't think it was Jimmy Dolan? No.
I know something. You see, I found

something. His watch. It was on the left
wrist instead of the right.

Now, Jimmy Dolan's a southpaw, and he
always wore his watch on the right.

Besides, Dolan had a big wrist, so that
he had to fasten the strap in the first

hole. Now, this was fastened in the
third hole.

I'm sure it wasn't... You're sure it
wasn't Jimmy Dolan? Yeah, that's right.

He's sure it wasn't Jimmy Dolan.

He's sure it wasn't Jimmy Dolan.

What are you trying to do, Blackley?
Send another innocent man to the chair?

I've been calling you.

I know, I've been busy.

Say, listen, I want to get out of here.
You got my money?

Yes, I got your money.

Say, what's this?

That's yours.

What do you mean, that's mine?

I'd put as much space between myself and
the city as I... Say, listen, wait a

minute. Where's my dough? Where's my
money?

The $2 .50 is yours. The rest is my fee.
What do you mean?

Where's the rest of my money? I've been
trying to explain to you. The rest is my

fee. Say, listen, are you trying to make
a sucker out of me?

If you don't come across for the rest of
my money, I'm going to... Don't use

your fists or you're a mock man.

If you take that southpaw stance of
yours, somebody will spot you and

give you the chair.

What you don't seem to understand,
Doherty, is... Huh? Yeah, Doherty, Jack

Doherty, remember that?

Jack Doherty. Do you think you can
remember that?

Jack Doherty. Yeah, well, what I started
to say, Doherty, is don't take that

southpaw stance of yours.

Don't use your fists at all.

You're liable to kill another man.

And if you don't, you'll give yourself
away.

You'll give yourself away.

Now do as I say.

Appearance change. Stay away from all
places. Out of sight.

Afraid. You're a dead man.

You've got to be afraid from now on.

Do you get me?

Yeah.

Yeah, I get you. Well, that's my advice.

It's worth all the dough I'm charging
you.

Now beat it, sucker.

What can I do with this?

$250?

That ought to last you a long ways.

And what do you want more for?

You can't use a train, there's people.

Can't use an automobile, have an
accident, get a ticket and they got you.

hop a freight train, won't cost you
anything and you can save your money for

food. That ought to last you at least
six months.

Come on, kids, let's show Annie what
we've done this morning. Come on now,

you'll be way up in the air and we'll
kick high for it. Ah, that's good. Now

kick, come on. What's the matter with
Samuel?

Guess I'm a little sunburned.

I'll say, yes.

Yeah. No, no, no, no. Come, kids. How
long have they been in the sun?

Oh, about 15 minutes.

Did you have them in the spring?

Yeah. Well, let me see the chart.

Will, what do you want?

Could you... Could you... Peggy, Peggy,
come here, come here.

One of you kids will go get some water.

No, no, Peggy, open his shirt. No, no,
no, you rub his wrist, I'll rub his

shirt. I mean, you open his wrist, I'll
rub his shirt.

I'm all right.

No, no, no, let me help you. You're not
all right. Don't try telling me what you

are and what you're not. You fainted on
my property and I'm going to tell you.

There, no.

No, lean on me.

Well, Peggy, don't act as if you've
never seen a young man before.

George, pick up his coat.

Bring the water, Mary.

She told me. She told me. I'll settle
this argument.

Well...

Well,

that's better.

Farms, are they... Are they always quiet
like this? Mm -hmm. No one ever comes

here.

You know, according to this chart, you
ought to feel strong enough to get up.

Oh, nothing doing.

Nothing doing. I'm always to combat.
That is, I'm a sick man. I'm a very sick

man.

I think you're a very lazy man.

So, uh... Nobody comes over here, huh?

No.

Yeah.

Lonesome? Ooh, fair.

Here, you better relax. Let me fix your
pillow.

You shouldn't have done that.

Oh, this is a pleasant surprise.

How are you, Sheriff? Fine. Peggy, thank
you. I don't have to ask how you are.

Came up to see the patient.

Well, there he is.

So, this is the young fellow that passed
out in your lap, eh? In Auntie's lap.

Well, it's a big, comfortable lap.

Eh, Jack?

He fainted in our front yard. He went
doomed like a prairie flower.

Hmm, he's a healthy -looking lad.

I'll bet you roped him. I was reminded
of my sister Lavinia. She was subject to

fits. She fainted the day that great old
Bill Koenig proposed to her. It was the

one time she oughtn't to have fainted
because she never was asked again.

Where are you from, Jack?

Canada.

Came down here looking for work.

Tough going, eh?

Yes, sir.

Well, I've got to get along.

I'll take a quick look at the kids. Oh,
they're fine.

Come on, Peggy. Give the boy a chance to
get well. I think she's falling in love

with him. Oh, auntie. No, no, no, Peggy.

is Uruguay?

Uruguay is on the east coast of South
America. What countries is it bordered?

Argentina and Brazil.

Is it inland?

No, I said it was on the east coast of
South America. Now, Freckles, hold your

tongue.

Whee!

What are you doing up?

I was looking for you. I was feeling a
lot better, and so I'm going.

Oh, I see.

So you're leaving.

Leaving. Yeah.

Yeah, I wanted to thank you for
everything.

Where are you going?

Me? I don't know.

I'm just going.

A tramp.

I'm not a tramp. Then why don't you stay
here? You told the sheriff you were

looking for work. Oh, don't go, Mr.
Jack. We kind of like you.

That's what you're fed a nurse, a tramp.

We'll have a good mind to turn him in.
The state will put him to work.

Oh, I get it. So much for so much, huh?

I've got to work it out.

No. Not if that's the way you feel.

Well, I will, see. I'll stay here a
couple of days and work it out. Just so

can't call me an ingrate.

Ingrate, that means... I know what it
means. A camp.

the covers off you.

Oh, don't do that. I'm disabled.

That is, I've got nothing on.

Well, you're no treat to me.

Hey! Hey!

Get off me.

You know, Piggy, I suspect that eating
and sleeping are the best things he

Oh, give him a chance.

I think he's lazy.

Come along now. There is work to be
done.

Well, what do you want?

Uh, can you milk a cow?

Yeah, sure.

Why? Are you asking me?

Well, you asked me, didn't you? Oh, it's
too early in the day to get into

arguments like this.

I ain't arguing. You ask me a question,
I'm answering you. Well, have you ever

milked a cow?

What's that got to do with it? Will you
not answer a question with a question?

Will I? Have you ever milked a cow?

No! But what's there to it?

Well, take this bucket up there and find
out.

And take that stool with you.

The cows are over there, do you see?

They're in the...

Did you ever see such a man?

No, never.

Careful, honey. You come back and finish
your breakfast.

Oh, favors.

He is a good -looking lad, isn't he?

Yeah. So will you kids stop following
me?

Uh -uh.

What's he going to do?

I don't know, but he ain't going to get
nothing.

Say, why don't you go over and tell him?

No, he's allowed to get sore.

Oh, he won't get sore. Go on and tell
him.

All right.

Mr. Jack!

Huh? You got the wrong man.

You ain't gonna get nothing for him but
a lot of grief.

Yeah, I know. Go on, Peter, will you?

You can't talk it out of him, Mr. Jack.
You've got to start something.

You must pull at the udder.

Utter what? What udder?

Oh, either udder.

Either... I said, what are you talking
about? I'm asking you a question. Mr.

Jack, you know how to milk a cow?

No, well, get up and let me show you
how.

You put the stool right over here.

Then you get down here.

And you do that, see?

Oh, that's easy.

I didn't know I got that way.

We can do that.

around the farm very much. How do you
miss Jack? I only work with his real

If there ain't real jack, then I don't
work.

Jack? What do you mean, Mr. Jack?

You work for a man who's named Jack?

Jack, that means dough, money. Don't you
kids know what jack is?

Oh, I know.

The quarter that the sheriff gave me. He
calls that jack.

Yeah, when is that guy coming again?

Oh, he won't be here for a long time.

You mean a week or so, huh?

No, he comes about every three months to
examine us.

Okay. Hey, look at all that rich, creamy
milk.

I did it all myself, too, didn't I?

Those are the cow dead.

What are you looking at?

Nothing.

Don't do it like that.

You must look at nothing. Look at it up
there. It's much prettier.

Oh, come on. Keep your head up.

What for?

Just so somebody can take a crack at it?

What's the matter? Are you blue?

Or yellow?

What do you mean?

Oh, nothing.

Say, listen, Smarty. You've been asking
an awful lot of questions about me.

What about you? Who are you? What do you
do around here? Oh, I just live here

with my aunt.

Yeah. Yeah, I surmise that.

Surmise. That means... Oh, just let it
go. I know what it means.

Well, what I mean is... What's a racket?

Racket? You know, all these kids and
everything.

Oh, this is a racket.

This is a place founded on an ideal.

You see, ideal means... Yeah, I know
what it means.

Oh, I'm sorry.

I didn't think you did.

You see, my uncle was a doctor. Dr.
Moore.

He devoted his entire life to the
treatment of crippled children.

And he believed that the springs on this
property had curative value for

paralysis.

Infantile.

So he took Freckles, Mary Lou, Sammy and
Georgie from the state hospital.

Morphins? Well,

we take care of them.

Where's old, what's his name, Dr.

Moore? He died last fall.

He caught the disease from a child he
was treating.

Well, I suppose we've all got to go
sometime.

I'll bet he made a pile of dough out of
this joint at that.

He did it without paying.

You mean to say he worked himself all up
and caught this thing and died?

Yes.

Didn't even get paid for it?

He didn't care about money.

Only about the kids and how to cure
them.

You see, he was an idealist.

He was a... What?

hands. Run, now, wash.

Where's Peggy?

She's in the kitchen, cooking your
favorite dessert.

Here you are, Annie.

It's from Chicago. Can I have the air
mill step?

Here. Freckles, run and wash.

Okay.

Peggy?

Yeah? Well, Peggy, it's come.

The letter's from Chicago.

Now open it.

No, I'm gonna sit down for a bit.

Bad news?

Got $2 ,000?

Well, if you haven't, don't go poking
your nose in our business.

I'm not poking. I'm just asking a
question.

Is $2 ,000 due on the 30th or... or
else?

Or else what?

Well, if the kids go back to the
institution and Auntie and I... Oh, what

you telling him for?

Next week, East Lynn.

Here you are, slowpoke.

Say, what am I entraining for? You know,
this ain't my lunch.

You'll make a very good housewife one of
these days. Yeah.

I take it back.

I know who's drying the dishes.

And he's quite right. You don't even
earn three good meals a day.

Now, they ain't so good. Take that steak
we had last night. Now, listen, you

take yourself right on out of here. Go
on out and exercise the kids. That's

where you belong anyway. Go on, shoot.

Bet you can lick King Cobra, Jack.

He couldn't lick him. King Cobra's too
big for him. Oh, yeah?

That's a big hunk of flesh.

Footwork'll lick him.

Sure. Now, watch your footwork. It's all
in the feet. Now, watch it.

But, Jack, you don't fight with your
feet.

That's just what you do, do. Now, wait a
minute. Now, watch me.

Now, watch me. I lay like this, you see?
And if my footwork's no good, what

happens? I'm off balance, and he clocks
me, and I draw him down. I go like that,

you see? Oh, that's swell.

Look, George, you've won.

Jack, you won the third prize in the
Salt Lake City News.

Oh, thank you.

That's funny, Mr. Jack. You told us all
to stand with our left hand stuck out.

And then you got your right hand stuck
out. Now, which is right?

When did you take that picture?

When you first came here.

What did you take my picture for? Did I
tell you not to take my picture? Jack!

He tried to get it out of him, but he
wouldn't confess.

That's the same here. We'll get him
again. Yeah, all right, Matthews.

What do you want? I've got something.

What, again?

Remember the McGee murder? Jimmy Dolan?
Well, what about it? Look.

Well, what am I looking at that for?

I think that's Jimmy Dolan.

Oh, say, listen.

You're screwy. You're crazy. You know
that, don't you? You got everybody else

around here crazy.

You can't even see anymore. The next
time you come in, you'll be deaf.

Take my tip.

Retire on a pension, will you? If you
can't get along on that, I'll subscribe

a fund. Anything to get away from here.
But retire on a pension.

No. No, not until I... No, not until
you've got us all cutting out paper

around here.

I'll tell you what I'd like to do.

I'd like to get away for about a month.

That's swell.

Take two months. Take two years.

But send us some postcards, will you?

I'm not sure.

Maybe it is and maybe it ain't.

But I want to find out for myself.

First kiss.

You remember?

Yeah.

Yeah, I was sick.

You were fresh.

Yeah, I guess I did work kind of fast.

Now you know better, don't you?

You slowed me down a little.

Do you love me?

Sure.

You've never said you did.

Huh?

You've never said that you love me.

Well, you know I do.

Well, say it.

Come on, say it just once. Say, I love
you.

That's for sissies.

Oh, please, Jack.

Oh, now, that's a dirty trick.

Say, listen, they found out about it.
You didn't think they didn't know, did

you? Yeah, but they'll tell your aunt.

Well, supposing they do. Supposing they
tell her. Yeah, supposing they do.

Supposing they do.

Then I fly south with the birds.

Oh,

sweet.

What's the matter, baby?

Those kids.

I can't see him go, Jack. I just can't.

Doesn't seem possible. There isn't
something I can do.

Well, uh, they're going to an
institution, aren't they? Yeah.

Well, what's the matter with that?

You can't go slaving your life away here
just nursing those kids.

What's in it for you? Don't be a chump.

What do you mean, what's in it for me?

Well, what's in it for you? Just what I
said.

Why, nothing.

Chump. What?

I said chump, sucker.

Listen, Jack.

I love you and I believe in you.

What's in it for me?

Come on, tell me.

Nothing.

Nothing, I said.

Am I a sucker?

I'll say, mister, I gotta have this
fight. I've told you, you ain't big

You're too light, you'd get murdered.
Oh, what difference does that make, as

long as I'm willing?

I ain't worrying about you.

It's the customers.

They ain't coming down to see a kid like
you for a setup. I'm big enough.

No, you ain't.

I'm looking for guys bigger than this
here King Cobra. I tell you, I'm big

enough. Go on, get out of here. I'll
say, listen, mister, you gotta give me a

chance to fight this guy and collect
that dough. Go on, get out of here.

Hello.

Now, get me Lou Aaron.

Yeah, I'll hold it.

Who's gonna make me?

What was that?

Who's gonna make me get out of here?

Who's gonna make you? Yeah, I am. Oh,
yeah?

Well,

do I get the fight?

Hey, Jeff, did you get the fight? I'll
say I did.

Don't you think he's too big for you?

Tim? Nah.

Bob Fitzsimmons used to say that the
bigger they are, the harder they fall.

Yeah, I know.

But the smaller they are, the further
they knock.

Don't discourage the man. He's going to
fight.

on here?

Oh, what's it to you? Don't talk like
that or I'll show you what's it to me.

Oh, now listen, I finished my work. I
milked the cow, cut the wood, brought

eggs in and fed the chickens.

Oh, stop making speeches. You're not
going to beat that king cobra by making

speeches.

Who told you?

Never mind who told me.

Watch your footwork. You couldn't get
out the way of a truck with that one.

How's your wind?

Well, it's, it's, it's... Well, never
mind. We'll find out. Come along, kids.

It's pretty sweet of you to do this for
us.

I'm not doing it for you. Oh, yes, you
are. No, I'm not. Anybody does anything

for anybody else is a... Sucker.

Well, your mind's your own business.

Well, you're my business, and it's not
so good.

Well, it's a little better.

Go take your shower. Yes, it's ready.
Come on, Mr. Jack. You can't go, Mario.

This is a man's world where we're going.

Come on, kid. Let's go.

Well, you passed all right, son. Now,
don't forget to pass tonight.

Thanks, Doc. I'll try.

You're next, Colucci.

So you made it, kid, eh? Yeah, Doc
passed me 100%. Tipper scale's 170.

And believe me, if I get in there first,
you and Colucci ain't even gonna get a

crack at him. God, you're too light.

Yeah? Funny what us guys will do for
money.

And what are you fighting for? My wife.

Your wife?

Yeah.

She's gonna have a baby.

Tough record, huh?

Good luck, kid.

Thanks.

Say, do you fellas know a fighter around
here by the name of Jack Dougherty?

Dougherty? Yeah, he's a southpaw. He's
fighting here tonight.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah. Well, I'm his cousin. You know
where I can find him? I don't know where

lives, but down at Lanahan's office,
second door on your left. He ought to be

able to tell you. Thanks.

Oh, Peggy.

Come on. Come on downstairs.

Huh? There's somebody waiting for you.
Come on.

Did you tell them I was here?

What's the matter with you? Did you tell
them I was here?

Jack.

I'm sorry.

Don't pay any attention to me. I'm...
Jack, we've got a surprise for you.

Come on.

Come on. Everybody's waiting for you.
Who's waiting?

Just us.

Oh.

Oh, why didn't you say so?

But I can't come down now, Peggy.
Honest, I can't. Oh, come on.

You darn fool.

You're just over -trained, that's all.

Come on, what's the matter with you?

Nobody's going to eat you.

Oh, here he comes, here he comes.

Here he is.

Surprise!

You shouldn't have done this, Peggy. No,
I didn't do it, Jack. They did it all.

Well, you certainly done it up swell,
didn't you? Now, don't believe Peggy.

cooked that roast with her own fair
hand.

All right, I cook it. Now, let's eat it,
huh? Hold on, wait a minute. Wait a

minute. Please, this is all swell and
everything, and I appreciate it.

But I wish you'd sit down and enjoy it
and eat it, because I don't feel like

eating on it. Oh, Jack, you've got to
eat something.

No, well, you see, just...

Just before a fight. Well, of course he
can't. I know just how he feels. He used

to feel that way myself before a fight.

Eddie, were you ever a fighter? Did you
ever know a spot that wasn't?

And you see, I... I think I ought to get
some sleep or something.

All right.

But just before this number, come on.
I've got something to show you.

Come on.

Now stand right there and close your
eyes.

Well, I won't look like... Oh, now go
on. Now close your eyes.

Keep your eyes closed, Mr. Jack.

All right, now open them.

Isn't it lovely?

Look. Look at that.

Peggy made the letters on it.

Here you are, Jack.

Oh, gee.

Thanks.

Thanks a lot.

And here's something from us kids.

Well, I... I don't know what to say to
you. I...

I don't know how to thank you. No, you
don't have to thank them. You go on

upstairs and get some sleep. We'll call
you in plenty of time.

Thanks.

Just a minute, Mr. Jack.

You know, I didn't chip in for them
trunks, but I got something I know will

you a lot of good.

Here you are.

And don't forget it's from me.

Jack!

Jack, they all gave you something but
me.

Yeah. Yeah, I noticed that, only I
wasn't going to say anything.

Well, I want to give you something now.

Oh, nothing less than a hundred bucks,
you know.

I want you to take this with you.

Oh, but... You keep it, will you? Look,
my hands are all full. No.

I won't.

Peggy. Aren't you glad?

Now, look, win or lose, we stick, huh?

You mean...

For good? Yeah.

Aren't you glad?

Well, sure, I'm glad. Only... Only what?

Only I'm... Well, I'm all sort of punch
-drunk inside, you know? So am I.

Isn't it lovely?

Go downstairs, will you?

I've got to get some sleep.

It's funny at that, the way you handle
yourself in there.

Your left hand like that, with your
right hand sticking out.

There ain't many Southpaws.

What are you nervous about?

I ain't nervous.

You know, it's funny that big palooka
don't have anybody down here to watch

bandages go on.

He ain't worried. He don't care if you
put rocks in your glove.

Rocks, huh? I'll rock if I like that big
bag of beetroots from his heels.

Come on, Annie. Be a sport. Take us to
the fight.

Oh, yeah. Please, Annie. Take you to the
fight? Well, I'm not going to the fight

myself. It's bad enough he must resort
to something as low as fighting to earn

money for us without children like you
or anybody else going to see it. Now,

go to bed.

Oh, no.

Never mind, kids. We'll listen to it on
the radio. Oh, that's good.

All right, you can listen to the radio.

But not for me.

I'm going to bed.

Good night, children.

Are those the guys we're going to fight?

Yeah.

Shake hands with them. You don't shake
hands.

You'll show them plenty of hands on the
ring.

Come here.

Let's see your hands.

All right.

Hey, wait a minute. Where are we getting
the ring, will you?

He's only getting... Come here.

Scared, eh?

No, I ain't afraid of nobody.

That's the boy.

Take it easy. That ain't fair.

He's only kidding. He's just a big kid,
that's all. Just a big baby.

Come here, little fellow.

What's your weight?

170.

170?

Hey, lay off that.

I know that racket. Now you keep your
smeary hands off me.

Oh, you're a fighter, eh?

No, I'm no fighter.

What did you come here for me for? I saw
your picture in the papers. I thought I

might like to be alone with you. Well,
that's rich.

Hey, hey, hey. Wait a minute. Wait a
minute. Come on.

Cut it out. We've had enough of this
clowning. Wait a minute. Wait a minute.

Come on. Cut it out. I'm not clowning,
will you? That's enough.

I'll take him first.

Come on.

Get him out of here.

You were crazy to do that, kid.

That guy will cut you up and knock you
out before you're half through the first

round. That's what you think.

He changed his mind. Oh, I can't, son.
Trying to get my goat, huh? Come on,

Colucci. They're waiting for you. Hurry
up. Soften them up for me, kid.

It's making me wait, too.

Sure, he's afraid of you.

Think so?

Really? Sure.

Well, boxy gears, though.

Oh, sit down. What's the matter? You
worried about the wife?

I'll stay in there long enough to pay
that hospital bill or else I'll... Oh,

down, will you?

Come on now, buck off.

I wonder how Kalushi's making out.

We'll find out pretty soon.

The Cobra ain't worrying about that big
bum.

He ain't afraid of hitters. He's afraid
of boxers.

Sure. Don't let him worry you none, kid.

You ain't worrying me.

What's that?

Collusion. Think so?

See? See, that's what he gets for coming
in. He should have kept away from him.

That's what I'm going to do.

Unless you tag him first.

I hope you do.

You won't let him come in to you, kid,
see?

Box him. Spear him going away. That's
what I'm going to do. Box his ears off.

Unless you tag him first.

Where's Colucci? They just took him
away.

He's all right busted up a little
inside.

That's what he gets for coming in. Come
on, let's go. Not you.

He wants Smith next. Who, me?

Trying to get my goat, huh?

All set?

Well, I've only got one hand bandaged.
We'll bandage the other one in the ring.

Well, doggity, you're all ready, aren't
you?

Ain't turning chicken, are you?

I'll box his ears off. He's upstairs.

Come on.

Hey, Smithy.

right of the jaw, now left of the face.
Is he a killer? Is he murderous? King

Cobra's right.

He's down. Smith is down.

I hope he stays down. This is murder.

His face is a pulp, a red pulp.

Eight, nine, ten.

Smith is out.

Boy, I'm glad that's over.

I'm telling all you fans that are
listening in that King Cobra is a killer

tonight. Now, the next fighter to face
the Cobra is Jack Dockery.

Come on, Jack. Do your stuff now, boy.

Jack will give him the old one, too,
like he showed us. Oh, he will win,

won't he?

I don't know. I'm kind of worried.

Say, if he's smart, he'll put that horse
in his glove.

Hey, there's a guy down there calling
you Jimmy.

Oh, yeah, Jimmy.

Who is he?

I don't know.

Never seen him before in my life.

to shake hands and come out fighting.
Now watch yourself on low blows. I want

you to break clean. No hitting and
holding. In case of a knockdown, take a

neutral corner. All right, let's go.

So you're the team, huh?

Well, you're the lonesomest girl in
town.

He bounces off. He's running around the
corner. Here he comes to the killer

right after him. The killer jabs him in
the left. Gets his head back. Shoots

another right in the jaw. A left to the
jaw. Rips another right to the heart.

And he's down.

Down flat.

He's up on four.

The killer is right after him.

Jabs him in the left. Shoots his head
back. Rips him open.

Knocks his left to one side.

He's working Doherty over.

What's the matter? You're getting soft?

Waking him over against the ropes. He's
got him in the corner. He's going for a

finish. There he goes.

Dougherty slips out.

Dougherty got out of the hole.

The killer is after him, leveling with
both hands.

It won't be long now.

Kill him, Mr. Jack.

Cut him down.

Cut him down. Please, Mr.

Jack. Don't let him hit you like that.
Please.

There he goes.

Dougherty is down from a right to the
jaw.

a thousand dollars. That's all he is,
then. He won't last the next round.

Oh, yeah?

That big man over there, he ain't
hurting you, is he, honey?

What do you think I'm paying off in,
peanuts?

Go on in and get him, you.

Well, Jack.

1 ,500 bucks.

You know what that is? I could make a
great fighter out of you, kid, if this

don't kill you.

I don't know whether I'll need a manager
or not.

Jim, take it.

and eat my sandwiches and tell me I was
the only friend you had in the

department. And then I make one little
mistake and you let them put me on the

shelf and tell me I'm an old woman and
to go home and knit a sock. Yes, you

You telling me I'm an old woman. You who
got your stars because you made pretty

speeches and bought your promotions with
graft money you got off of crooks.

Well, we're even now, see?

I got this guy. I got him on my own,
see?

After coming to you and laying in your
lap and you as good as told me that

have me broken if I didn't shut up and
forget about it.

Why?

Because you were afraid the newspapers
would pan the hide off of you if you

didn't have brains enough to get him
yourself.

Well, I'm going to tell the newspapers
the whole story.

I'm going to make you the laughingstock
of the whole city. Now, Flaxer, listen

to me. Mr.

Flaxer, do you?

And that ain't all, neither.

I'm going to tell them how I slapped you
in the puss, just to show you what I

think of you.

There's your badge.

Now, you can put me on a pension.

Please keep quiet, and I'll get you
another 500. Well, we don't need any

I think you will. Oh, you're as terrible
sight as it is. Another round of this

one will take you home. You'll scare the
children to death.

Well, I've got some good news for you,
honey.

You're leaving tomorrow.

Isn't it marvelous?

The kid is hard with his life. Take a
whiff of that soft.

Come on, lady, you've got to get out of
here now.

Get away.

Get in there and get out.

Took a pretty bad beating.

He'll come out of it all right. I didn't
want him to fight in the first place.

How was he now? Just about the same.

Jack, get up.

You hear? Get up.

Have you tried vinegar?

We've done all we can, Clark. Send out
some vinegar now, Jack. Come out of it.

You hear? Come out. Oh, he's got to come
out of it. He did it for us.

He went in and let himself be killed for
us.

Jack, it's all right. We've got the
money.

We can keep the kids.

Nobody's going to take the ranch away
from us. So why are you unconscious?

Come out of it, Jack. Come out of it.
Oh, my head.

It's an old pal of mine.

Say, I... Annie, you go outside, will
you? I'm okay now, honest.

And will you tell Peggy and tell the
kids that... I'll tell Peggy and tell

kids. You can tell them yourself.

No, you see, I don't think I can.

Jack! Jack, are you all right? Oh, Jack.

Oh, sure, I'm all right. Oh, he's all
right, Peggy. But the way that guy was

talking on the radio, we thought you
were dead.

Don't look like it.

Oh, Jackie, you don't know how glad I am
that you're safe.

Peggy, I... I've got to go now.

Go?

Yeah.

That is, I mean, I've got to get
dressed.

Well... Come along, kids. We'll meet you
at the ranch, Jack.

You're Mr. Jackson, aren't you?

No, I'm not Mr. Jackson.

I didn't think you would. You don't look
like him.

I'll wait for you outside.

Get ready. You all right now, honey?
Sure, I'm all right.

Hey,

Flax, wait here just a second, will you?

I want to tell Peggy something.

Come here, kid. I want to tell you
something.

You're lying to me.

You're lying to me, Jack, aren't you?

He's lying to me, isn't he? Tell me the
truth, isn't he? No, I'm not, honey.

Honest, I'm not. He's my manager, aren't
you?

Sure, I'm his manager.

You see, I wasn't lying to you.

He's my manager. He's going to take me
back east and we're going to get some

fights and pick up some easy cash and
alchemy.

I'll be coming right back to you, honest
to you. In about ten years.

He's only clowning. That's flax or
anything for a laugh. Well, maybe if he

behaves himself real good, you'll see
him sooner.

He means he's going to take me on a
barnstorming tour, one -night stands and

things like that. But none of that for
me, kid. I'm coming right back to you,

honest. I'm going with you, huh?

No. Yeah. No, you can't, honey, because
this is staying. Yeah.

No women.

There's something wrong, Jack. What is
it? Tell me, please. What is it? No,

there isn't, honey.

I'm coming back to you. I swear I am.

Come on, kid.

We got to get going.

Come on.

I won't go to the station with you,
Jack.

Just kiss me once and then go quickly.

If you don't, I'll make an awful mess of
it.

Oh, look, Jack.

Take me with you, huh?

Oh, please, Jack, take me with you.
Jack, please take me with you. Don't go

without me, Jack. Please don't. Jack,
don't leave me.

Sit

down.

We've got to travel together for three
days, kid.

Can I depend on you?

Or shall I put these on?

Never mind, Scrooge.

I won't cause you no trouble.

That's a swell -looking girl you left
behind, boy.

Yeah.

Yeah, she's invigorating.

That is, she's got everything.

And those kids and the old lady.

You're the white -haired boy, huh?

Say, listen, Screwy, you'd have done a
lot better if you'd lived in the times

George Washington, Jefferson Davis, and
Sherlock Holmes.

You think so?

Why?

You'd be dead by now.

Yeah.

Uh -huh.

Well, this is the biggest day of my
life.

Yeah.

When you get back to town, the mayor
will probably give you a ride down

with confetti and everything.

Here comes our train kid.

Come on, let's go.

Let me see.

It was back in 1894.

I was the leading man of the little show
doing one night's dance.

The going was pretty tough.

One night we tried out a new play. I
remembered well.

We got paid that night.

It was all about the old family mortgage
and the poor but honest gal.

I was the leading man and I got the gal.

And the mortgage too?

Yeah. The good old sob stuff.

They've got them every time.

That was back in 94.

This is 1933, son.

And they don't fall for it anymore.

You were a terrible sucker.

You're telling me.

I'd do it all again, see?

Now, will you please lay off me?

A softie, eh?

Jimmy Dolan gone soft, huh?

I've made a lot of mistakes in my life.

Say, maybe I got the wrong guy.

Maybe I have.

Maybe you have, wise guy. I'm not quite
sure.

Hold!

Go on, beat it.

And say, keep that kiss of yours out of
the camera.

You don't photograph good.

So long, doggity.
