you're telling me

it's 2 A.M.?

- [Scream]

- Play the piano!

That was a silly thing to do.

He's the best in town.

Shut up!

Come here.

Next time I turn his

fingers into pretzels.

I just might do the same

thing to your face.

See? He's playing

better already.

Let's go.

From the top!

Care for some water?

I'm thirsty.

Where's Lips Manlis?

Where's Lips Manlis?

[Mumbling]

[Mumbling]

[Mumbling]

- [Mumbling]

- You heard him, Mrs Green.

That's his testimony.

- Get him out of here.

- His what?

Hey, hey! Wrong way.

It's impossible.

I know that...

[Mumbling]

That's coercion. It's illegal.

Fingerprint those

walnuts by 8 A.M.

- I'm bringing Big Boy in tonight.

- It's the 5th time!

It's a gamble if

it doesn't stick.

The gamble's leaving

Big Boy on the street.

Let's go get him.

Hello, Big Boy.

I brought your garbage.

We meet again.

Where's Lips?

This is a private club.

Got a membership?

- Do you?

- I own it!

- Since when?

- Today.

I made a deal with Lips.

Where is he?

I don't know.

Must've left town.

That's a coincidence.

My new girl,

Breathless Mahoney.

Meet Dick Tracy,

servant of the people.

- You like walnuts, don't you?

- I love 'em.

A lot of people like walnuts.

They're good for the liver.

Yeah, but they're

bad for the brain.

You're sloppy.

You're under arrest.

Get him out of here.

We've got a place where

they don't serve walnuts.

See you in

a half hour, boss.

This ain't a break!

Keep rehearsing.

Get the lawyer.

Tell him this flatfoot

is out to get me.

Hello?

You're breaking and entering,

you know.

Sorry.

Sit down.

Aren't you gonna arrest me?

If I we're,

I'd have done it by now.

Then, what are you

up to, honey?

I think Lips Manlis is dead.

I want you to tell me

who killed him.

Or maybe you

weren't on his side.

Whose side are you on?

The side I'm always on.

Mine.

No grief for Lips?

I'm wearing black underwear.

I can take you in and

sweat it out under the lights.

I sweat better in the dark.

You don't know if you

want to hit me or kiss me.

I get a lot of that.

Look, you're safe.

Big Boy's in jail.

You can keep him there.

Give me a call.

My gosh, what time is it?

- It's 6:
30.

- [Gasp]

I have to get to

the greenhouse.

I've got those new

delphiniums coming in.

Pat's going to call

the orphanage today.

Tracy, try watering those.

Tess!

Thanks for watching the kid.

Good night, Tracy.

Tess...

you're one in a million.

Oh, Tracy, good night.

[Tess]

Have a good sleep.

- Tried the iodine transfer?

- Yes, Tracy.

- Silver nitrate?

- Twice.

Big Boy's fingerprints

aren't on those walnuts.

What is it, Sam?

Tess says she isn't going
