- My barge. Yes. You like?
- Like?
- Why should I? It stinks.
- Soon you'll get used to that.
Two or three day here
just like a breath of fresh air.
But who'd stay here two or three days
to find out? Not me.
So long, pal.
If I was feeling better...
I might like to know how I got here,
but I'm not feeling better.
Thank you very much,
and good-bye.
- No like job? So sorry.
- Job? What job?
No remember last night?
My name Henry.
We meet in chop suey house,
You say you work for me,
I bring you here.
You very drunk.
No remember?
Hey, any news?
- Not yet.
- Man hunters.
George good cop.
He catch him maybe.
- Catch who?
- You know Pop Kelly?
Somebody kill him last night,
early this morning.
- Murder. Yes?
Don't go. I give you dollar a day
and a bottle of sake.
- Good day, gentlemen.
- Whoever done it, Henry, he didn't do much.
Pop was an awful pest,
especially when he was drunk.
But to choke an old guy like that-
Gee whiz.
- Choke?
- Yep.
That's the way he done it-
choked him to death.
Just got him by the throat
and hung on until it was all over.
And then he took all his dough.
Oh, about 20 bucks.
I give you $1.50 a day
and a bottle of sake.
- But they don't know who did it?
- You heard what he said.
Choke.
That's a funny way to kill a man.
Yeah. Funny to some people,
but not to Pop.
Come on.
We got three more boats to check.
Wait a minute.
You said you brought me here?
- Yes. Yes.
- You were with me all the time?
When you get here, you go to sleep.
No talk, just sleep.
So I go, leave you here.
There, in doorway.
You take job, I give you two dollar a day
and a bottle of sake every day.
Could you let me have
Okay, okay. Sure.
You good man. Nice job, see?
Just sell bait.
- So much, one dollar. Two, two dollar.
- Yeah, I got it.
When you sell all bait,
we get some more.
We go out in boat
and get bait every night.
- I got it. I got it.
- He's got it. Come on. Let's go.
- Good business. Nice job. Everything okay.
- Sure. Sure.
Well, thanks, Mr. Henry...
but we can't stay here
to sell your bait.
We have something
very important to find out.
And right away, pal.
Let's go. Come on.
- Is Tiny here?
- Are you goin' or comin'?
You still owe something
if you're going.
- I'll pay you. Is Tiny here?
- That's two days you owe...
and two days you gotta pay.
I wouldn't do that if I were you.
Drop it.
Now answer the question.
He's inside, in the shower room.
He's inside, in the shower room.
That's better.
Keep an eye on that.
I'll pay you later.
Hey.
- What's the idea?
