He'd do everything but kill you.

Be a good guy.

Pick it up.

Chuch, you got anything at all?

- No.

- Even half?

I haven't got enough for myself.

Remembered the time

when you tried to kick it?

You couldn't stand it,

so you called me,

and I gave you my last drop.

All right, come by

my place later.

Don't make any noise.

My old lady's sick.

All I'm saying is that I'd

certainly never notice it.

You take Johnny's mother.

When she had Johnny,

she blew up like a balloon.

This thing makes me really look

bigger than I am.

I think I'm lucky.

I think I'll be able to work

up until, oh,

about the eighth month.

- Hmm.

- Those men down at the office

keep looking at me.

Ah.

Got room for a third?

I don't like those men.

Whoever heard of seeing

people in the hallways?

You got a room right here.

What's all the fuss about?

You don't even know them.

How much money did you lose?

Oh, a couple of bucks.

Who-o-o-oh-oh.

All right. I'm getting up.

I'm getting up there.

Boy, I hate to drink.

Y-You ne--you never get drunk

if you stand up and drink.

It's the sitting down

that gets you.

Whoa, you had enough.

You know what I mean?

- Come on.

- Come on, boy.

Let's get the overcoat on.

Come on.

All right. I'm going to

put the overcoat on,

and I'm going to go

out in the cold.

Out in the freezing cold.

Boy, I hate to drink.

Hey, Polo, do the smart thing.

- What?

- You know.

- Go right home, huh?

- I'm gonna go home.

I'm g-- I'm gonna go

straight home, Eddie.

- Atta boy.

- So long, Eddie.

Hey.

Hey, hey--Hey, you want

a piece of sugar?

It's--it's warmer...

It's warmer.

Hey, hiya, Jack.

- Hey, hiya, Polo.

- H-Hey, wait a minute.

Wait a minute. I got s--

I got some sugar for the horse.

Here.

I'll give him two sugars.

Here.

Whoo. Whoo.

I hate to drink, Jack,

you know that?

Polo, you better go home and sit

down before you fall down.

I-- I'm gonna go home right now.

Come on, horse.

I'm gonna go home.

I'm gonna go home right now.

Ooh, Hey, Jack--

Hey, you silly horse.

I'm gonna cross the corner.

Uh, come on,

let's-- let's go, horse.

We're gonna cross the corner here.

Hey, hold your horses!

Hold your horses.

Come on.

I-- I'm gonna

go across the street.

Hold your horses.

Hold your horses, baby.

Look at my hands.

Mixing pink ladies

and Daiquiris.

- It's embarrassing.

- What's embarrassing?

I got to get them

manicured twice a week.

I'm going to talk to Polo

when he gets home.

I didn't know he had $2,500.

Ah, forget it. Forget it.

What's the difference?

Polo's just like everybody.

I don't know. Everybody seems

to be running nowadays.

Running, running.

Planes, boats, trains,

big cars. Where to?
