- [ Man ] Excuse me, Mort.

Who gave this gentleman credit?

Mr. Vittelli...

do you plan to pay your debt by check?

Well, I don't usually carry
that kind of money in my bank.

You know, all the money I make...

I put back into the business.

And it's paying off handsomely.

Now, look, I intend to pay.

I'm not one of those guys who consider
a gambling debt just a piece of paper.

[ Man ]
I'm sure.

I'm sorry for the...

formality, but, uh, I'm gonna have to
ask you to sign a couple of forms.

$23,000 is a lot of money.

Uh, why don't we have that drink, girls?

I - I'd, uh - I'd be willing to pay for it.
A round for everybody.

No, no, no.
Ladies, excuse me. I'm sorry.

Please be seated.

Okay. Mr. Vittelli, right here, please.

Okay. Again right here.

So, what are we gonna do?

It's all paper.

- Certainly has been a depressing evening
all the way around, hasn't it?
- Yes.

Be right back.

Aren't you gonna come in?

I think the thing to do
is to get some cash and go back down there.

- Want me to come with you?
- Nah.

All right.

- Let's go to the club.
- Okay.

Thank you, Lamarr.

I can get Abe to sit in for me.

There's not much of a turnover
at this hour of the morning.

Let me close this door.

There's costumes over here.
