CHARLIE:
We have five shows a day, six if the film is short, and it pays
twenty dollars a week.
JACK:
Seven days a week?
CHARLIE:
Oh yes.
JACK:
Good union hours.
CHARLIE:
It's a Japanese custom. People expect it. And it's for one
month. My cousin in Portland is coming to work here then.
JACK:
Sounds good to me.
CHARLIE:
First show is eleven o'clock.
JACK:
Eleven o'clock, huh?
CHARLIE:
Mm hm.
JACK:
The last guy sleep here?
CHARLIE:
Yeah, he uh, liked to take nap in between shows.
JACK:
What happened to him?
CHARLIE:
He died.
JACK:
Overwork, probably.
CHARLIE:
He committed suicide. He was disgraced.
JACK:
What did he do? Miss a changeover?
CHARLIE:
The projectors are very old, so you have to treat them like a
woman.
JACK:
With love?
CHARLIE:
No, with patience.

I don't know. It's in the third reel of the movie...Hey, who was
that?

No one worth knowing.

Are you kidding?
CHARLIE:
She's not your type.
JACK:
Oh, she's your girlfriend or something.
CHARLIE:
Oh, no, no, no, no. Just a girl.
JACK:
Just a girl! She's beautiful.
CHARLIE:
She's my sister.
JACK:
Wait a minute. You told me that your sister had a face like a
plate of steamed dumplings.
CHARLIE:
You should see her without makeup.
JACK:
You said that she was four foot tall and squat.
CHARLIE:
I've got a lot of sisters.
JACK:
We're asking her to lunch.

No, no, no. Listen. She's Japanese, Jack. We'll find you a
nice American girl.

Uh, hi. I'm uh, Jack. I work with your brother Charlie. Are

Hi, Lily.

Hello.

Uh, we were just wondering if maybe you would join us for lunch?
