Marked Woman Page #2

For cigarettes.

We've all tried this 12 and a half

a week stuff. It's no good.

Living in furnished rooms,

walking to work.

Going hungry a couple of days a week...

...so you can have some clothes

to put on your back.

I've had enough of that

for the rest of my life.

And so have you.

Well, of course she has.

She's just burned up

because Johnny said she was getting old.

Aren't you, honey?

You're a sweet little hyena, aren't you?

Well, it's true, isn't it?

You know, working for Vanning

isn't gonna be any bed of roses.

- And you don't have to rub it in.

- You're gonna work for him.

But I'm not getting into his trap.

And I'm not taking any chances of getting

a slap in the face with a spade either.

You know, we're letting ourselves in

for enough as it is.

Some will wind up in the short end,

but not me, baby.

I know all the angles, and I think I'm smart

enough to keep one step ahead of them...

...till I get enough to pack it all in and live

on easy street the rest of my life.

- I know how to beat this racket.

- Yeah? How?

That's what I've been trying

to find out for years.

- Good evening, gentlemen.

- Hey.

- Oh, look at that.

- Keep the change.

This way, please.

Where are they from?

Picked them up at Waldorf-Ritz,

metal industries banquet.

It's locked. Hey, captain,

commodore, come on.

Just a second, gentlemen.

From the Waldorf-Ritz.

McGrew sent them.

Say, are we having fun?

- Good evening.

- How do you do?

- How many?

- Four, please.

Right this way, please.

Are there going to be any more

in your party?

I don't know.

Are there?

Carrie.

Florrie, sit here.

- Sit right down, honey.

- Oh, no, no. I saw her first.

All right, I've got my gal right here.

Gabby, go to work on them.

Well, how do you want it, honey?

Soft and smooth, or loud and hard?

Soft and smooth.

Only don't put them to sleep just yet.

What is your party drinking?

- Why, what have you been drinking?

- Oh, champagne.

Fine. We don't wanna change your diet.

- Champagne for everybody.

- Everybody, champagne. Gallons of it.

Are you in the mood for music?

- I'll say I am, baby.

- All right. Hey, Gus.

- They're all set.

- Who ordered?

The young fellow with Mary. Champagne.

- Well, tell Mary the dice table for him.

- Okay.

Come on. Come on over here

and sit up here, baby.

Here's how.

Thanks, sugar.

Snake eyes.

- Well, honey, I guess this isn't our night.

- Oh, keep on trying, you'll get hot.

Not with three pair

of snake eyes in a row.

- How much am I in for?

- Eighteen hundred dollars.

- Is that all?

- Yes.

Would you mind taking my check?

I don't like leaving myself without any cash.

- Glad to accommodate you.
