The Set-Up Page #3

Give me a hand, will you?

I'm in a hurry!

- You ought to see the mouse I got outside!

- Mouse!

- Don't you ever think about anything else?

- What else is there?

- Ain't that right?

- Hold your hand still!

Wait till you see this one!

- Like a brick battleship!

- Mouse!

What's the matter with mice?

They're all for you

as long as you're in the chips!

I never seen a dame yet that's still around

when you hit the skids!

- Cut it out, you guys, will you?

- I didn't know you worried about dames!

I said, cut it out!

- Sell 17, 23, 29, 32!

- That's it! I'm out!

How much I owe you?

Gunboat, get ready!

Gunboat! I told you to get ready!

All right, hold it!

Take a deep breath!

Once more!

All right! Right there, son!

- How you feeling, son?

- Feel? Okay, doc! Okay!

Just like Frankie Manila!

Twenty-one times! It's in the record book,

ain't it, Stoke?

- What's in the record book?

- Twenty one times, that's what Frankie done!

Twenty-one times he got licked!

Couldn't get a fight!

Even here! 21 times!

Just a pushover! Remember?

Ain't got your gloves on yet, Gunboat!

Get up here!

Manila never had no chance, no!

He got dumped 21 times!

You better get your gloves on, Gunboat!

Your deal!

That makes it $2 you owe me!

Take it easy, take it easy!

Don't wear yourself out!

You got four rounds to do out there!

All the fight news and pictures!

Get your Knockout!

- Hiya, Julie!

- Hello, Bat!

- Ain't you going in?

- No!

No, sir! Frankie never had no chance!

Just a workout!

The champ wasn't even gonna

get up a sweat!

Twenty-one times, Manila got beat!

Yeah, and that's 21 times you told us

about it! So what?

So what? So he wound up middleweight

champion of the world!

He sure did, Gunboat! Sure did!

Can't you see me, Stoke?

First, I win the title!

And then the exhibition tour!

That's where the easy dough is!

I'll be in the movies, Stoke, with a line

of dames waiting for me a block long!

You need any help with those dames,

let me know!

Save it for out there, Pop!

You'll need it!

- Johnson and Joyce, get warmed up!

- Attaboy, kid!

- Good going!

- Thanks!

- You got the first one!

- Yeah, in the second round!

- Third spot, upstairs!

- Nice going, kid!

- Next bout!

- That's you, Gunboat!

I'm going!

Twenty-one times, and he winds up

champion of the world! Right, Stoke?

Right!

I guess you can only stop so many!

Yeah!

- Let's go, Luth!

- See you, guys!

Just a little cocoa butter, Gus!

I feel good tonight!

- Oh, Mickey! Get Tony ready!

- Yeah, yeah!

Come on! Right here!

- What good is that gonna do you?

- Never can tell! Might show me the way!

- To beat Lopez?

- No!

Oh, I get it! The way to go to heaven!
