on me. I'm running a clean place. See ..

See that you keep it that way.

Got a lot of class, hasn't she.

And so you see gentlemen.

The power of numbers has had a great

influence on men. Most of their lives.

Lay off will you. This is the oldest

numbers racket in the world, and you know it.

Numerology sir, is a great science.

Okay Professor, but

remember, one complaint ..

And we'll introduce you to the science

of making little ones out of big ones.

But Grace, I've been busy.

Well, you now... work.

Oh but ..

But Grace ..

Keep quiet Steve... just hold on.

Honey... are you alright?

Cut! Steve?

Of course I'm alright. That was just a

scene from the picture I'm working in.

Cut it short, will you.

I've got to go... I'll

pick you up tonight.

That's the trouble with being a cop.

You've have a legitimate excuse for your

wife, but they don't believe you anyhow.

I don't know about you, but win or lose,

I'm taking Grace for dinner tonight.

Who's next?

Annie Cobb.

I thought she was still writing

for the San Quentin Times.

Just a warning Annie.

Don't too clever with

your customer's signatures.

We don't want them showing

up on forged checks.

My profession is to judge a man's

character by his handwriting.

Especially when the

letters turn up in court.

Which is where we'll see you

Annie if you get ambitious.

Buffalo Bill.

Hello. Hello dearie.

The badge-boys are

on a sightseeing tour.

Thanks Annie, I have

a client waiting. Bye.

I'm sorry Miss Dilby, but we can do

no more today. I just can't go on.

But you were telling me ..

When I am forced to come out of a

trance, my powers are always weak.

We'll try again at your

regular time next Monday.

I'll be looking forward to it.

I am so anxious to know about Arthur.

Come in Sgt Johnson, Sgt McManus.

She's psychic.

Yeah, especially when the law's around.

Twenty bucks your regular fee, Liane?

I have no fee. I accept

only goodwill offerings.

Did you gentlemen wish something?

Just wanted to tell you not to steer

your clients into any phony deals.

Oh, I never advise my clients.

I only tell them what I

see in the crystal ball.

You tried that excuse on a

Denver Judge and got three years.

Or have you forgotten?

Is this a pitch?

No... just a warning.

You boys don't have to worry about me.

Goodbye.

I wouldn't mind going into

a trance with her myself.

If I wasn't married of course.

Come in.

Hello Princess.

Been a long time, hasn't it?

Not long enough Mr Weldon.

Uhuh. Not Weldon. The name

is Wells. Anthony Wells.

What will it be tomorrow?

Do me a favor Mr Anthony Wells... blow!

Liane, I'm terribly sorry about

that little unpleasantness.

The time you had to go to prison.
