You'll not that make friends and

influence people by discussing prison ..

With someone who's

recently been in one.

Especially since you

should have been there too.

I said I was sorry.

Don't be.

The prison diet agreed with me.

Everybody says I have

a lovely figure now.

Goodbye.

Well... I see you've

finally made the big league.

Crooning over a crystal-ball, huh?

Playing around for

peanuts in a dingy walk-up

I make a living.

Oh, you're not really satisfied with

nickels and dimes. you deserve much better.

Listen, do you know

what I could do for you?

Alright, spill it. Let's

stop kidding each other.

I need your special talents.

I have a proposition that's worth a

great deal of money. Are you interested?

How much is a great deal? Sit down.

Two million dollars.

Alright... let's hear about it.

Good evening sir.

Table for two please.

Right this way, sir.

Say, what about the booth

in the corner? Surely.

May I start you with a cocktail?

Yeah, a couple of Martinis... very dry.

Thank you sir.

Do you realize this is the first date

you haven't broken in the past two weeks?

But what about all the dates you

broke, because of your "career"?

Are you still jealous of my career?

Oh, how could I be?

The last time I went to see you in

a picture, I went out for popcorn ..

And missed your entire performance.

Grace, honey.

If I can crack this case,

I'm a cinch for promotion.

Your salary has nothing to

do with our getting married,

If that's what you're driving at.

Oh I see.

You... you haven't time

for marriage right now.

There's something in

you that has to come out.

You have to express yourself.

What's the use, it's ..

It's just that creative

people have to ..

Well, they have to create, that's all.

Oh, that will look great in print.

Yeah, I can see it all now:

"Grace Bradshaw, rising young

screen-star says, quote..."

"Creative people have

to create." Unquote.

Thank you.

Advice on love, business

and personal problems?

Maybe we ought to ask the Swami?

That's all I need. Will set

back my promotion ten years.

Swami Kohlikhan. His real name

is Drake. Strictly a phony.

He's over there.

Well, get a load of that, will you.

One faker having her fortune told

by another. Now I've seen everything.

The change will be very soon.

Very soon... now?

Hey, what do you know?

Drake's leaving with her.

Maybe they have a

date? Is that illegal?

No.

But I bet what they're

thinking about is.

Now that you've seen the place,

let's get down to business.

Our organization will be

known as the "Rama Society".

R-A-M-A. Devoted to the

science of the occult.

Liane here will be in charge.

You'll address her as "The Princess".
