A Hole in the Head Page #2

- What five points?

Go to bed. A kid playing gin

at four in the morning.

Next thing you know,

you'll be smoking and drinking.

OK, once more.

Who's the greatest champ of all times?

- For $1 million?

- For $1 million.

That's easy - you are.

I ought to punch you in your funny nose.

Except it looks like your mother's.

You know how you look like her?

Look how look like her.

Little Millie. She was so good.

Pop, please don't let me

go live with Uncle Mario.

- What are you talking?

- I know if you call him for money...

I never saw such a worrypuss.

Come here.

You know what I'm gonna do for you

when I'm on Easy Street?

I used to dream about it

when I was in the Bronx.

I'm gonna buy you the biggest house

you ever saw. Big as a castle.

We're gonna have flowers and dogs,

and beautiful horses

with their tails way up in the air.

And maybe a big white yacht. Hm?

I used to watch those boats

go up and down the Hudson.

I used to say to myself "Yes, sirree, boy,

one of these days,

all of that is for my little Ally."

Me too, you.

"Me too, you?" What kind of talk is that?

When I grow up and be a famous scientist,

I'm gonna buy things for you.

- Hotels.

- Shut up.

I'll do all the buying in this family.

That gives me a good idea.

Cos right next to that big house,

I'll build a very big scientific building.

Every afternoon, I can watch

the professors shoot rockets to the moon.

Hm?

Nah.

First, we've got to get you a bank,

something solid, you know?

Real solid. We'll have your name

in gold letters that high.

President Ally, banker.

Boy, we sure could use

that bank right now.

Oh, go to bed. Go on, beat it.

It's four o'clock in the morning.

- Good night, Pop.

- Knock off.

(thinks) Don't let him call Uncle Mario.

I don't wanna live with Uncle Mario.

Please, God, I want to stay here with Pop.

How do you like that?

He's gonna take care of me.

And he could too, the way I'm going.

Some father.

Put in a good word for me, Millie.

Cos if I lose this hotel right now, I'm dead.

(music)

Cha-cha-cha to the right

The night is young

Cha-cha-cha to the left

Oh, don't be chicken

Play me something

The cha-cha-cha

We'll cha-cha

You'll cha-cha

The night is young

Oh, don't be chicken

Knock off, will you?

And the landlord is a goof

Abe, you're my friend.

You can't throw me out now.

I got a deal here that's stupendous.

If you want a piece, you can have a piece.

This is a $10 million deal.

Millions schmillions.

Don't make me out a mean man.

I told you I'd meet you for a coffee.

We couldn't meet at Dubrow's Cafeteria.

No, it has to be here.

The coffee is a dollar and a quarter.

Money to you is...

I don't know what.
