Riffraff

Stinko again.

Is that a way to talk to your father?

Where was you all night?

I was looking for a job.

What was you trying to do?

Sneak up on it in the dark?

Gee, if you ever was to get one,

I'd drop dead.

Say, Lil, how about a cup of coffee?

You just get your own coffee, Pa.

Oh...

Pete'll be home pretty soon

and I gotta get Hattie's breakfast.

She's gonna be late for the cannery

seeing she ain't even up yet.

Hattie!

Hat, wake up.

Wake up, Hattie.

What did you bring me from

the Fireman's Ball, Aunt Hat?

What did you bring me?

Yeah, Hat, what did you bring us?

What makes you think I'd bring anything

to a couple of roughnecks like you?

Aw, you're a fine sister.

You said you'd bring us something.

Why are you always going places

and never bring us anything?

Why don't you bring us anything?

I found it. It's cake.

Cake?

Cake? Oh, you didn't forget us,

did you, Hat?

Oh, some mug just slipped it

in my pocket for a gag.

Come on, now, you give me that cake.

I will not. Aunt Hat's my aunt.

And I'm your uncle so I get the cake.

Come on, give it to me.

Get up, Hattie! Get off your rocker!

Hey, Lil, your kid's got my cake.

What's she got there?

Let me see, Rosie. Give me that.

Oh, why ain't that nice.

Hey, Lil, Hat brought that to us.

Here then, take your cake.

Give her her half of it, though.

Get out of here, take her downstairs.

Get out.

Come on, Hat, get outta there.

Have a good time at the ball?

Oh, I made out.

Take a squint at that.

What is it? An advertisement?

No, I was elected Miss Hook and Ladder

Company #7, that's all.

Real sateen.

What did Dutch Muller say?

That false alarm? If h'd come near the place

they'd have turned the hose on him.

He's going out with the fleet this morning

for the tuna.

Yeah, I know.

I'm gonna throw my arms around his neck,

put my head on his shoulder

and tell him to go jump down a whale.

Makes you feel better,

don't it, honey,

running a guy down when

you're stuck on him.

What, Dutch Muller, that big I am?

I don't mean nothing to him

and he means less to me

so that makes us both happy.

Well, I don't know why you want to keep

his pictures stuck in the mirror for.

Why don't you throw it away then?

Leave it there. Reminds me not to like him.

Lil.

Lil, Hat.

What's the matter, Pete,

the cops after you?

Put down that cornet.

You wanna cut yourself?

Lil, Hat.

The cops are after Pop,

the cops are after Pop.

Hiyo, the cheerio...

Lil, Hat.

Hey, Lil, Hat...

What's the matter, Pete?

The fleet ain't going out.

the fishermen are going to strike.

They're milling around the docks.

The cops, let's go

or we'll miss all the fun.

Hattie.

What?

I'm going, too.

I gotta see you.

Well what do you want?

Loan me two bits.

Nothing doing.

Go ask the government.

Hattie, come on!

Come on, Hat!

I'm coming.

Well, what was you doing?

You're doing all you can

to get a higher percentage on your haul.

You are doing all the work

and somebody else is taking all the profit.

Looks like somebody is making a speech.

Gee, I hope there ain't gonna be trouble.

Is that what you're working for?

Where are you going? I'm getting worried.

Listen to him.

I ain't got time.

I ain't had my breakfast yet.

How can you think about eating breakfast?

The guys are talking about going on strike.

You might lose your job.

All right, you worry about it, Lew,

while I get outside of a stack of wheats.

Wish I could see something.

Maybe I should've brang a box.

Gee, Hat, can you see anything?

Hiya, Dutch.

The usual, girls, and don't forget

you got big hearts.

We missed you at the party last night.

We'll have to have a real one when you get back.

Yeah, I hope it's as good as the last time.

Remember when I threw Shorty...

Hi, Dutch.

Hello, squirt.

What's going on outside?

Go on with what you were saying.

Remember when I threw Shorty out the window

and he busted old man Murphy's fence?

What a toss that was.

It wasn't so hard. The window was open.

I just asked you something.

Don't you ever wash your ears?

What kind of a crack is that?

Didn't I say "hello, squirt" nice to you

when you came in?

What are you always making wisecracks

at me for?

Keep away from me, will you,

go on back to the firehouse.

I didn't mean to wisecrack.

What's all the excitement about?

What's the men gonna do?

Get outta here.

I'll be itching for a party when I get back.

I'll dig up Lew and a couple of gallons of vino

and we'll put it out.

That's a date.

Swell.

Hey, what is this?

Get outta here.

Those cakes almost ready for punishment, baby?

Coming right up, Dutchy.

You big ape, don't talk to me if you don't wanna.

Get outta here.

Come on, put your finger on 'em,

make 'em sweet.

Hattie!

I've been looking all over for you,

I nearly went out of my mind...

I lost Jimmy.

What was ya doin' in Towman Tony's?

I wanted a cup of coffee.

Oh, Jimmy's lost, I know something's happened

to him in all this mob...

He'll break a leg or get killed...

Lil, take it easy, we'll find him.

Jimmy! Jimmy!

Jimmy!

Here I am!

Oh, there he is.

Thank goodness he's safe.

Come on, Lil, we can see everything

from the fire escape.

What do you got to show for your work?

What do you do with the dough

they give you for breaking your back?

You buy just enough bread

to keep going on.

Hello, Flystrap.

Hey, boss, boss...

The men are milling around, the men are milling...
