Sorry I called you a fruitcake.
I just don't have time to listen to...
All right, don't listen! Who cares?
Your sister has a lot to
You got any idea how
You might ask the bartenders
along 5th Street.
I'll call you if
I turn up anything.
... If I'm not home, leave a message
with the butler or the cleaning woman.
Cleaning woman.
Cleaning woman.
Cleaning woman.
Cleaning woman! Cleaning woman!
Cleaning woman! Cleaning woman!
Cleaning woman! Cleaning woman!
Sorry.
Why did you do that?
my father ran off
with the cleaning...
My mother died of a broken heart.
Now every time someone
says cleaning...
- I go berserk.
- You poor dear.
I don't blame you
for strangling me.
I'll never say it again.
Thanks.
So long, Dollface.
I legged it down 5th Street
looking for Samuel H Hastings.
It was a street of frustrated
hopes and broken dreams.
Everything was cheap, cut-rate. Even
the prostitutes were having a sale.
There was no problem finding Hastings.
He owed money to every bartender.
He was staying at the Hotel Ward on 5th
Street. It used to be on 8th Street...
But they took so many rubber checks,
it bounced all the way across town.
I went to his room and knocked.
- Hastings? Sam Hastings?
- Who is it?
My name is Reardon. I...
have a proposition for ya.
But not today. Does
it have to be today?
- Yeah.
- Come on Monday.
- I got that money for ya.
- What money?
There's a dollar bill
hidden in your sugar bowl.
I'll give you five bucks for it.
- You could buy a lotta booze with that.
- Just a minute.
Look in the top.
It fits perfectly. Most of
the names are illegible...
But I can work out Kitty
Collins and Swede Anderson.
But what does "FOC" mean?
It's a slang word. When a man and a
woman are in love, the man puts his...
No, no. Written here. F-O-C.
Unless I miss my guess, that
stands for "Friends of Carlotta".
- I'm impressed.
- You think that's impressive...
There I was, standing like a kid
Driving miles out of my
way just to see her.
Why?
What are you thinking, Mr Reardon?
So long, Dollface. I'll be in
Santa Barbara if you need me.
working at the Brentwood Room.
The Brentwood Room.
Where rich women go to meet rich
men so they can have rich kids.
Miss Collins?
Kitty wouldn't give me any information
if she thought I was a private eye...
Excuse me.
So I decided to act like a
big-shot movie producer.
- My name's Reardon. I make movies.
- How wonderful of you.
- You like boxing pictures?
