Hello PT Hello Joe.

Things around to see me lately you know

you don't want to neglect your old pals like that

I miss you when you don't come in. Well none of that time

the PT everything's gonna be okay

I'll see you later

add this on to the finish

Wait a minute. Wait a minute Phil. What are you doing?

You got the middle part of that thing all mixed up.

I'll show you how it goes.

I think I remember it boys

hit me about 16 bars at a time

there will you just lightly and politely?

That's all there is to it. Once it changes for Jesse

I didn't I did Joe

I didn't think was going over on our way demeanor

that routines is tried and true. Is the Brooklyn Bridge a little bit newer

to used to work all right when we did it.

Hi, Jesse. Yeah, you should have heard the reason

we got the green on last week.

I know a Bronx cheer when I hear it,

especially when they come in bunches of 50 Greenlane huh.

Well, don't worry about that feel that wasn't because of you.

And Betty seems like everybody that plays that house is getting it lately.

And it's gonna happen again, unless Joe pays off to a mug by the name of
McHargue.

Why? Well, it seems like it's part of a shakedown racket.

There's some guy that wants me to pay protection money for running a
legitimate business.

But just forget about it. Try it again.

Kids and put it back the way it was.

Hit it from the top forum. We've always

how much longer you're going to ignore this McCobb Oh,

I don't know I guess until he gets it through his thick skull

and I'm not paying anybody for protection.

Ah, come on. He don't you worry about him.

Know what's going to happen. One night a big wisdom come along

and blow McHargue right off his perch.

Then you better pray for a good blow and quick tool.

He's given your bands and everybody else the jitters.

Now you're getting cuter looking every day.

Joe still in just

a minute tall, pale and loathsome.

What's the idea of standing me up?

Maybe I got no time for inconsequential chatter.

I carry your message to gotcha, then gosh, I can't wait.

Where were you last night? I was calling the Sister Act for the boss.

There was rank amateurs till three o'clock in the morning.

They weren't amateurs. Can I help it if they live in Jersey

and do your talents gotten closer to home?

What's the matter with Brooklyn? Now I ask you Did anybody ever find
anything good in Brooklyn?

You found me there. So I should make the same mistake twice.

Wow. Hey, wait a minute.

Hey, Joe. Joe just caught the hottest act you ever saw out in the sticks
last night at the theater.

This guy comes out on the stage and he has these dogs

about 40 dogs all lined up there.

30 dogs and he has them all lined up.

He puts the big ones on the bottom he makes a pyramid sorry.

What are the what are the listen to all I don't know what they ate.

I'm trying to explain what the act is to you because we listen guest

here he has the great thing is down on the bottom.

But all the other big dogs lined up like this.

About 10 of them in a row and then he puts the smaller dogs on top of them.

And he goes on up. Amerindians. Pomeranian.

Listen God, we're all dogs. I'm telling you to dog.

Oh, the guy is building up this thing to make a big pyramid.

He puts up little ones and little ones and little ones.

And then way up on the top. There's a little black dog

the most beautiful dogs who ever saw I never saw anything like mustard on
him.

Yeah, mustard and relish in a big toasted roll and clogging.

What am I saying? Hey, Joe, listen.

Like I thought it was a good act.

Joe said to cut out the coolness here.

Shorten the sleeves and put it more gradually shorten the season. Take out
this.

You know what the chocolates already said to the lemon soda

when they heard a knock at the door. I hear a Rhapsody

get it.

You know you too could get married and save money

by quarreling under the same roof may marry that.

Don't give me that. You know you're crazy about him.

Yeah, you're right. I've been crazy about him.

Ever since that first day I met him in Jacoby's dairy lunch.

We were sitting next to one another.

He squeezed a piece of lemon into a glass of tea

and it's squirted in my eye and

I've loved him ever since.

Oh, we ran 30

Well, you've got to admit I'm improving.

Okay, Max, I'll call you later.

Yeah.

Got anything good in the 60s. Hi, Elena.

Hey, Tommy. How are you? fella? Come on in.

Come on in. I'm glad to see it. Where are you been keeping yourself?

You haven't around here in a couple of months. We missed you.

Whoever heard of anybody missing a cop? No.

on the level we did the last time I heard about you were handcuffed to a
blonde on the way to the electric chair.

Oh, I was worried about you.

I was afraid maybe they forgot to take the bracelets off.

I wouldn't go off for a day

I'm not even a blonde.

Thanks. Business Journal. All

businesses great if it gets any better.

I'll have to get a new slogan. The sun never sets on a Joe Jonathan
enterprise.

Brother. I'm spraying the country with music. Good.

Glad to hear I know you'd be when you start on the comeback trail.

A wise guy said it couldn't be done.

You and I know sometimes the wise guy turns out to be the sucker.

Say, how about a couple of passes to Greenland Dancehall. Hmm.

What were these feet? Oh, that's right.

I forgot to vote. No, I just dropped in to say hello, Joe.

And I'll wait and it's not gonna run so soon.

I gotta get out of there. Wait a minute, Tom.

You didn't just come in and say hello. What's on your mind? Oh,

I heard a little gossip down the station this morning. Oh, God pilot stuff.

Ah. Now this is strictly the big house brand.

Your old boy said Kirby is applying for parole. And Kirby.

Don't tell me they've had a boy that long. Five years.

How do you know anything about a job?

Let me know. How would I know anything about time?

I haven't seen or heard anything from Kirby since they took them away?

I didn't think so. But you know, it's part of the job.

Oh, sure. Sure, Tom. That's all right.

No, no, don't worry about me getting mixed up with him again.

When I burned my bridges. They stay burned.

All I wonder here. Forget it. I mentioned it.

You bet. Jonathan again, Tommy.

It's been around less time we'll tear up a steak. Thanks. I'll do that

Okay

What about it .
Oh, nothing much. He just dropped in

to broaden his cultural context about Finland Betty.

They'd be ready to go on Monday. Oh, that'd be really good.

Joe, this McHargue Yeah, what about him?

I was thinking it might be some of the old gang trying to put the pressure
on you.

Have Jesse. I want her to police commissioner

say only dishonest people have anything to fear from racketeers

that lets us out but the least you can do Joe

is to see this McHargue and find out what he wants.

Alright, so I'll see him he knows where I am.

If he wants to see me let him come up here.

Oh, you're simply cutting off your nose.

Okay, then I'll cut off my nose. I'm not gonna let any guy push me around

six o'clock boys you better shove off if you want to make that Friday
Martin opening.

Holy smokes I forgot all about it.

I've got just time to get home and dress for

and make a reservation for me Jesse.

Make that reservation for two days.

I already did. But it's nice to hear you say wait a minute.

Yes. For you.

You mean to tell me that you're the guy that's been trying to pull the
shakedown racket on me

the filler here?

That's the answer, isn't it?

Oh, how do you like that?

This is a nice alarm you've got here. Yeah.

They got any place else to go?

Not till I send them. Oh, I see. Not until you send them.

so this is the office huh?

Yeah. Start talking.

As you come to us this place

I made a deal with the agents that has used it to keep them clean

What's the diff? The guy that owns a can squawk he's in the clink.

He's you ever know Ed Kirby. Now?

I don't know who he was. He was a big shot.

They call in the air 44th Street

know?

You can jail a couple 100 kids for not liking your bands anymore

and you can jail and for liking him and

baseball games auto races or what have you.

That's why they listen to me.

I get him tickets to go places

Hey, Joe, I'm being picketed.

I don't know my car. I don't see how you can whitewash the racket.

You see you're on a one way street.

You keep it on the way you're going on.

You're essentially wanting to write with Kirby in prison.

Kirby made a mistake. That's all

that won't happen to me.

That's kind of funny. Kirby said that to me once.

I used to work for him, you know? Yeah,

I was one of his top men. Fella gave me some advice and I got away from it.

I remember one day a guy named John Law dropped into seeker

been asked a lot of questions that he couldn't answer.

If I was you, I'd get a copy of those questions

because sooner or later he'll be down to see you.

And when he does, brother, you better have the right answers.

You can't scare me I'm not trying to scare you.

I'm just trying to tip you off you see you're a good smart kid McCard

put that newly yours to work in the right direction

and you're essentially went up on top on top on

what a legitimate business.

Ain't that just ducky I suppose

you'd like me to work for you?

Well now as a matter of fact, I hadn't thought of that.

But now that you mentioned that is not a bad idea.

What's the most you ever made in a week?

Halloween night?

Well, I'll tell you what I'll do. I'll pay you 25 to start

But this McHargue Oh,

honest Joe, what can you see in him?

I'll tell you the truth. I don't exactly know.

don't promise anything. If I'd known what you two wanted.

You've never gotten in here. Wait,

I'm gonna wait. I'm gonna take it easy. Jesse. Let's hear what the boys
have to say.

Oh, Joe, please don't get mixed up with Kirby again. Jesse.

You heard what he said. You'd take care of your Nitin

is one thing I can't understand why they come to me with a thing like this.

You will never pass. That's right. But that was years ago.

But I straighten myself out before the Lord did it for me.

Listen, Joe, you can't go back on.

You don't know what these five years in jail have done to the man?

Why is it different guy? All he wants is a chance to go straight,

just like you or anybody else.

And you can give him that chance. You know,

Ed isn't a young man anymore.

There any strings tied to this?

Not the one in the world Joe

all he wants to do is comply with the law

than he is on his own

Look, here's what you do. She'll make you fill out the papers

and send them out to my office thanks to you

can find your way out by yourself.

Are you going to sign that paper?

Sure. Jesse. You can't kick a guy when he's down. I'll give him another
chance. Another chance.

Kirby is a crook and you know it he was born a racketeering he'll stay a
racketeer.

You made a mistake, Joe but Kirby

Oh Joe you're a full of stupid fool

I just Herman No, we can locate that dancer you told me about

Yeah, sure. Well get him

what I tell her he's wonderful.

Hot as a firecracker.

He's not for you, Jesse.

You're crazy Joe.

Crazy. Nothing. He's nuts. The guy sensational quiet

small fry. Just what don't you like about him?

I don't know. Exactly. He's a little too tall for you.

Jesse got too much grease in his hair and

what I heard about him he beats his partners

then suppose you find someone for me Mr. Jonathan well all right

all right well but give me time give me a chance.

Say what is always rush about finding a partner for you? What's that?

Well, there's a rumor around that the red supporting the good ship Jonathan
enterprises

and I really want to get off before the break.

Or that's what it is. Well, you got it wrong.

The rats run away from a sinking ship.

I'll let you know when it's time to put on your life preserver.

Shula cute

what is everybody

well, I don't know. I must have walked out

I guess that didn't like the music. Yeah.

But Joe Why don't get it why don't you

okay this guy and get rid of the dame?

Why don't you keep your tie straight? Like I taught you?

Go you want to see me?

Yeah.

Kirby gets in at nine tomorrow morning.

How about state little party formed on the table you know,

get out the old mob and put it on bake who thought that make

what they want to do tip off every cover

and turn the Kirby's back. The quieter he gets off that train the fewer
people know about it,

the better it is for everybody concerned. So forget it

this is a

job Joe, he's here

Joe, you've got to straighten this.

Oh, are you glad to see

Hello, Joe.

Hi, Jesse.

Hello, gang. Hi, good.

It's good to be home. Joe.

Thanks for the reception at the depot.

A kid and his gang really put it on big for me.

It was terrific. The best show I ever put on

200 kids yelling their heads off.

Yeah. Well, let's swell. Come on in

and stick around

that's gonna see you later.

pretty swell joints.

We've got a nice layout here.

So we're doing all right our way.

I like the way you've handled things.

Graham tells me you've even got some way all bands.

That swell Joe, I won't forget it either.

I'll take care of you to the same as I always did.

Anything else said,

Yeah, I got a flagger no idea that will fit right into this business.

I not only have this town soda,

I'm liable to have control of all the bands in the country.

See, I've had a lot of time to think long

enough. You're still figuring shortcuts.

What's wrong with that? Was just this.

If you get these silly ideas in your head about moving in here and taken
over,

get them out of your head. Now. This is my business.

But you see, they're working for me.

And they're not holding down their jobs because somebody was kicking back
to somebody else,

or maybe because the opposition was bombed out of business.

What's the difference? Well, here's the idea.

You see, when you went up the river and the Kirby rackets were busted up
and exposed

a lot of us around town either were kind of left out on the limb.

So I picked up those pieces and put them back together again,

only this time on the level.

But gentlemen, we find out it works that way.

We kind of like that's the way we want it to stay.

If you want to come in with us on that basis,

there'll be a desk out there for you want to

Okay, Joe, if that's the way you want it.

I'll see you in the morning as well. And I'm glad to hear you say that

say after you get used to it this way.

I think you'll like it even better. So long.

So long.

Thanks for meeting me here. Smart kid. I liked smart kids

fives

let's come on I don't want to talk to it

why Vicki?

Yes, it is sure good to be home again

just Hello, Vicki. What's Kirby doing here?

Haven't you heard? He's now a full fledged member of the firm he's going to
work here.

That's right that's what the boss says

then I don't want to stay around you've got to spot me someplace

just see and the farther away the better.

Things keep on going the way they are.

We'll all be looking for a new spot and a safe one

I do with Joe

there's a right lead he's got working for him practically runs a joint

Yeah, command

look who's here. John.

Imus, Jesse. Hello. News travels fast, doesn't it?

All right, so Kirby's back and he's coming up here to work.

I'm going to give him a job and it works out his pearls

or anything wrong in that.

Nothing long as it stays that way.

Well, I just said it tonight.

He said a lot of things, Joe.

You know, Tom, you're beginning to get monotonous to me.

Ordinarily I'm glad to see when he came in with today

I guess you can find your way out by yourself

I'm not through yet. wants you to know

that I kept my mouth shut about makan because

I thought he was traveling in the right company.

Figure the change might do him good.

But I was down at the railroad station this morning.

All right. So I know about the railroad station this morning.

I've already talked to the kid about what do you drive and I found

when I see storm warnings I take a hit.

From now on you'll be judged by your actions.

It's up to you Joe.

Oh, bed? Yeah.

Have you had your dinner?

Yeah, sure. Well, when you didn't show up for dinner,

I canceled the seats ahead for the hockey game.

I was pretty busy. Seems to

me you've been pretty busy quite a few nights lately.

Haven't you fella. How come

Tony's tavern? Still a two bit join always will be

Oh, what is this kind of a polite beef?

It is. I want to crack at Hamilton's or one of the other uptown spots.

Wait a minute hold the phone. I don't think that crowd here is quite ready
for that deal.

Kids aren't in the groove. You know that still sort of a one whistlestop
aggregation

and they play a lot better for a cut of the Hamilton gate?

Yeah, they probably would well maybe when they get in better shape they get
a chance at it.

Right now. I have to spot the bands where I think they belong.

When you think I belong at the tavern is that it?

Well yeah Lou as a matter of fact I do.

I have to excuse me now I gotta catch a plane.

Think clearly sharp at Hamilton's for instance.

Crowd liked him too. Then all of a sudden they turned against him.

Crowd sure of fickle aren't they?

Well, you fellas driving at anyway. Bad thing for the reputation of being
like that.

Curl is gonna have a hard time getting it done.

He's too smart. We'll start passing the ball around.

What do you want? We want to ensure your popularity as though

What's the price on this premium Kirby a mere 500 a week?

A mere 500. Does Joe Jonathan know about this strictly between you and me?

If you're as smart as I think you are, you'll keep it that way.

I'll think about it. Yeah, sure.

Think it over. We won't be leaving for an hour or so.

Well, hello, Joe. Glad to see ya.

with you again.

You haven't got a right bone in your whole body Kirby like

Okay, Joe. Okay, come on.

That's that's becoming home

line on my way.

I'll see you later.

Good evening ladies and gentlemen, this says Brady Martin,

coming to you from Leighton's at the lake.

Our first number on tonight's broadcast will be when there's a breeze on
Lake Louise.

We hope you will like it.

That's the way you look the night you sat on the depot platform at
Sheboygan,

windstorm and blowing the roof off the building and our booking was
canceled.

Remember? To make matters worse,

we had to dance the first performance on an empty stomach.

Seems like we were always dancing on an empty stomach in those days.

Back we never knew where our next meal was coming from.

I guess I talk too much.

Or wait a second Jesse. Honey. I'm sorry.

I'm I'm kind of bad company tonight.

Is that thing done? It can upset me.

I understand you.

What was it your says on about a station platform?

Oh, I was just talking about the time we were stranded in Sheboygan
strategy of

Oregon. Wait a minute. Let's not leave out Scranton.

Pittsfield Pottstown. Dubois.

Dubois will never forget DuBois.

That was the town where the mayor on the thing

Yeah, they made a campaign speech right in the middle of Iraq.

On was a shamanic college and they have an audience

didn't like him and he better than they liked

as he's probably right back working on the blacksmith shop not all

and incidentally, let's not leave out Pittsburgh,

Virginia where we had to follow Hills High School horses remember,

the less said about that the better?

Yeah, we've danced under all kinds

of conditions. Times have certainly changed Thank goodness.

That you never thought you'd be living in a penthouse in New York City.

Well, I don't know the kind of bed there for a while

but I always had a sneaking hunch we wind up all right.

So what's a tip on their plan? Is that No Sounds kind of good.

Oh, Joe, you ought to know that to have your own voice routed.

No kid. Well, look, you can't expect me to keep track of everything.

How's the lyric that goes with it? You know?

I think so. Well let's hear it. Joe Jonathan.

Can't you forget about business but just five minutes I'll tell you

what I'll do you send me one chorus of the lyric

and I'll promise not to mention business the whole rest of the evening

that is a deal

when there's a break

there are no

real deft

watching Audrey

will be alone Louis

with only story to share enchantment.

When there's a breach on Lake Louis

pretty nice to her was that Lake Louise department

in Canada Joe? The most beautiful blue lake way up in the Canadian Rockies.

Oh, it's the most romantic spots you ever saw.

Yeah. That's where everyone goes on their honeymoon.

Well, they do. What do you suppose books? The band's up there?

Joe John.

Jesse said I was only getting honest.

I didn't really I did.

Sure you want to do this bit.

I wouldn't be doing it if I didn't what I had

Kirby is no good for your bits.

they'll wind up getting into trouble.

Ah, you can't scare me.

I'm not trying to scare you.

What you think maybe you kind of think it over the night.

You might feel a little differently about it in the morning.

I've already made up my mind.

I don't get it. What's wrong? What's been the trouble?

Well, it's time clock business and Stanford papers.

Maybe I'm fed up from taking orders from somebody else.

Well, we started even and that's the way it is.

We don't know each other nothing.

We're gonna get out of here

that fire hose wasn't a bad idea.

I got a hunch Jonathan we'll talk business now.

Wait a minute, Kirby. You've tried this too far.

What do you tell him in a bar? Get in the car.

I don't like the way that you've been running things.

Well you don't don't you

knowing that just to Bed Bath Yorkshire's is one thing

but turn off choices another

Shut up you didn't tell me that was going to be rough stuff

I'm getting out of this lesson nobody's getting out

Joe, you're just in time Jerry here in the gang want the lowdown?

Yeah, Joe, we just wondered what you were going to do.

But don't get us wrong. We're not squawking

and trying to put the pressure on you.

Because you've been more than square with us.

We're willing to string with you all the way.

Sure I know you're JERRY You know how it is.

That's your answer. You can always count on Joe.

Job you gone crazy. Put that gun back in the desk.

Wait a minute, Jesse. Take it easy. Don't go feminine on me.

There's only one way to handle a guy like Kirby and I'm taking that way.

I'll see you later. But what about you Joe?

Think of yourself I am

I'm not gonna let Kirby wreck everything I build up.

Make sure you don't wreck it yourself Joe.

What are you hanging around for?

I told you to stay out of sight. Yeah,

I know. But I wanted to talk to you.

What about well, it's like this.

That bomb and gag was no part of our deal.

We don't like it. What do you mean we, me and again?

My game. We'll get there. Just a minute, Kirby.

Well, hello, Joe. Where you been? I expected you before this.

I know. But I've been kind of busy.

The little invitation you tossed in the lathe was last night was more than
I could resist.

Yeah, I kind of expected that would make you see things my way.

Let's go inside and talk it over. Come on.

We got to operate here.

Wait a minute. No, Joe, put that gun away.

No, you know us. You're not going to talk your way out of this.

When you're all through. A lot of people are going to be better off.

You gotta give me a chance, Joe.

One bit speed to get out of here.

Yeah, go on beat. Get a get out so you can see what a real right looks like
at work.

He knows I'm on parole. He knows I can't carry a gun.

That's the reason he's making a grandstand play.

He knows if he ever puts that drum down, kick his brains out.

Guns down and start kicking. Right

you know, Joe, you don't belong in this ragged.

It's only for smart guys. You see, Joey?

You walked in here with a gun and threatened me.
