Oh, yes, Mr. Gable.
Shave and a manicure?|Just one moment, please.
Jack and Harriet could take you|this afternoon at 5.
Yes, Mr. Gable.
Mr. Gable. Bye.
Hollywood Shop, barbers to the stars.
Oh, Mr. Kavanaugh.|Shave and a manicure?
Here or at the studio?
All right, we'll send Bert and Evelyn.
Oh, Mr. Kavanaugh, I saw|the last picture you directed and...
Well, goodbye.
"We'll send Bert and Evelyn."|What's the matter with Louise?
Ruthie, you know I've been wanting|to do Mr. Kavanaugh for a long time.
Look, dream girl, just because he signed|Claire Warren to a contract...
...doesn't mean he'll sign|every cuticle carver in Hollywood.
He likes the way Evelyn does them,|so Evelyn goes. Period.
Don't you start putting it on for me.|Your roommate signed the contract, not you.
- Listen, I wouldn't try to be so...|- Girls! Girls! Break it up.
Now, my shop is for haircutting,|not for hair pulling.
I'm going to lunch.|By the way, where are those two fatheads?
- Studying. Barber college.|- Where?
In the supply room. I'll get them.
Now, just take it slow and easy,|and don't get excited.
Now, the most important thing is to get|the lather off the customer's face...
...without cutting him.
- I know.|- Go ahead. That's very simple to do.
- Now, try it out.|- Oh, I hope I do it good this time.
There's no reason why you shouldn't.
Take your time. Are you nervous?|That's...
I don't know.
I'm making such a unsuccessful attempt|at this all the time. I don't understand.
- I mean... Where did he go?|- Well, what do you...? Just a minute.
Don't get excited.|What do you expect?
You're buying my course|on how to become a barber, right?
- But I could have done better.|- You've only been here three years.
When I wanted to go to barber school,|you didn't have to stop me from going.
The only thing I wanted from you|was to go to barber school.
What can they teach you in school|that I can't teach you here?
- At least I'd have got my fraternity pin.|- Watch me closely this time.
Now, here. Here's what I want you to do.|Now, just watch. There it is.
- Now...|- He's squawking.
- Now, wait a minute. Stop that.|- Stop squawking.
Please, you're doing enough damage.
Of course, you're going into|a new semester, you know.
- A new what?|- A new semester. That'll be $5 in advance.
Five dollars? Buzz, look.|That's all I got, is $5.
- That'll be fi...|- No!
- Now, please.|- I got a date tonight with Ruthie.
No wonder your nerves are shot. Look at|your hands, just look at your hands.
- Look at how nervous you are.|- Cut it out.
- You're shaking my hand.|- Am I doing that?
- Am I touching you? No, certainly not.|- I'm nervous.
It's your nerves. Give me the $5. There.
- Watch me closely this time.|- Hurry up, I wanna graduate.
Now, first of all, we lather it up.|Notice it?
- Yeah.|- Now we take the razor.
- That's the razor. You know that.|- Yeah.
Yes. Now we take the razor.
Quiet, quiet, quiet.|Now, just watch me closely.
- Are you watching?|- Yeah, I was watching very close.
That's what I want you to do.
Look how simple it is, look.|See that? There you are.
- Any way you want, just tear it off.|- All right.
- Yeah, that's good. That's good.|- Simple enough.
- That's very good.|- That's up to you now.
Put some lather on there.|I'll show you fancy stuff.
There's your razor. Go ahead.
- There you are. Go right ahead.|- All right, it's my turn, right?
- All right.|- Now it's yours.
- What are you doing?|- Get my diploma ready. I'm gonna graduate.
- Just a minute, please. Are you...?|- Nothing happened, huh?
