- The catch?
It'll cost plenty and it's a long shot.
We'll have to find a doctor
who's willing to risk it,
we'll have to get Frankie to him
within an hour after the execution,
and we've got to make sure
there's no autopsy performed.
Who's gonna pick up the body?
Frankie's got no relatives.
Add another $5,000 to the bill.
Yeah? And who pays off?
Frankie, if it works.
And if it doesn't?
Oh, I know, two slugs.
Well, let's drink to your future, huh?
Look, honey, I spoke to Harry.
I think he'll find a spot in the show for you.
Oh, that would be wonderful.
Please, Sarge, no trouble.
He's kind of nasty
when he's been drinking.
Why don't you keep
that two-bit hood out of here?
Come here, Ruthie.
I want you to meet an old friend of mine.
Well, well, if it ain't Little Boy Blue
throwing his buffalos around.
Here he is, Ruthie.
Jo Jo, the wonder boy himself.
The best dressed flatfoot in town.
Come here.
- Yes, sir.
- Put her in a cab.
Okay.
I told you not to play with babies.
Don't call me Jo Jo. The name is Joseph.
Beat it.
I'm closing you up, Mike.
It ain't our fault, Sarge. Honest, it ain't.
Kelsey brought her in here.
Louie asked her how old she was,
she said 23.
- If she's 20, I'll eat that glass.
- Well, Kelsey brought her in.
Okay, okay.
But if I catch you selling liquor to minors,
I'll bust this joint into toothpicks.
Oh, no, that's all right, Sarge.
It's on the house. It's a pleasure.
Take it.
Playing the second team, kid?
- Frankie mightn't like it.
- What's on your mind, Jo Jo?
A few hundred thousand dollars.
Why not talk to Frankie Olins about it?
I'd rather talk to you.
I've already told you
I don't know anything.
Why don't you stop
trying to push her around, you...
What?
I thought when I got Frankie
