Whitman's chocolates.
Also, I think, some good news.
Can he eat these?
Better let me try one first.
First of all...
...Leighton will pay 100 bucks
for five tunes written for saxophone...
...and before you jump on my ass...
...I told him I'm not collecting
a commission on a sum that small.
It's all yours.
Thank you very much, Mr. Parker.
What's second?
Well, it's a little more long-range.
I ran into Chummy Morello yesterday.
Chummy.
He's thinking about leaving Woody
and they want to send him on tour.
It wouldn't be
till after the first of the year.
My God, Bernie, that's three months.
I know, I know, still....
Well, needless to say,
he'd be honored to have you with him.
If I'm straight.
It's a legitimate concern.
I'm trying.
It's a good prospect.
Think about it.
Would you like a chocolate, doctor?
I've got to...
...redo the restraints.
You try and get some sleep.
Aren't you going to say
"pleasant dreams," doc?
from a state asylum...
...and from shock treatment.
Perhaps that sounds
cold-blooded to you.
No, you sound cold-blooded to me.
All right.
But I promise you, if it were
my brother, I'd shock him.
Would you? What does
your brother do for a living?
I don't have a brother.
We're talking about
a very special, creative man.
His livelihood depends on his ability
to improvise and compose music.
See, that's not just dexterity.
That comes--
- That's from being a--
- Mrs. Parker.
- Do you want a musician or a husband?
- Look.
They do not separate.
I have a couple of chores.
Take a few careful minutes
by yourself.
Frankie!
- How are you?
I got great photos to show you later.
I'm not late, am I?
Good evening, professor.
How you doing?
Here we are at the 18 Club.
Yes, yes.
It's Harry "The Hipster" Gibson.
Stop that shouting up there.
Art, you keep bringing in
them stiffs from Oyster Bay...
...and not one got a dime for a tip.
You're breaking my heart here.
Here we are on the street of dreams.
Swing's the thing, jazz is the king.
You like it hot, you've come
to the right place. Step in.
No cover, light minimum
and Dixie till 4 a.m.
- Who could ask for more?
- What are you doing?
- Give me a break. It's my birthday.
- Get out of here.
Excuse me, sir.
Hey, sailor!
Come here.
You leave and don't see Miss Virginia
Knight, you'll live to regret it.
She goes all the way for servicemen.
Right down to the curlicues.
If you don't see pay dirt,
I'll refund your money. Stiffs.
Good evening. Good evening.
Here we are at Poulez Roulez.
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.
- Get out of here. Get out of here.
- F*** you.
Art Tatum,
