which make us produce either harmonies

or discords.

Strange,

when I'm emotionally stirred,

I always develop the most

tremendous appetite.

I think I'll have a steak.

Yes, a large one.

And two bottles of Pol Roger.

Of the 28, Charles.

Very well, sir.

Steak.

Chicken sandwich.

I told you I was sorry, darling.

Well, at least you could tell me

what's all about.

- Don't you trust me?

- Of course I trust you, dear.

It's just something

I have to work out for myself.

Everybody thinks I have an interest

in the place.

What's wrong?

What are you staring at?

- I thought Joe Reed was in jail.

- They let him out, he had an alibi.

- Didn't you read the papers?

- I didn't see a paper.

What was his alibi?

He said he wasn't even in town

the night Julia was murdered.

Don't turn around,

he'll know we're talking about him.

What are you so jumpy about?

The night of the murder

Julia got home a little after I did.

You know how you can hear

through the walls in our hotel.

What are you trying to say, Jimmy?

The cops said she was killed

about 4 o'clock.

- They were right, I heard the shot.

- What?

Few minutes later I saw Joe Reed

coming down the fire escape,

with a gun in his hand.

- Did he see you?

- I don't think so.

I was scared stiff. When the cops grabbed

him I thought they had the goods on him.

I figured I could keep my mouth shut

and I wouldn't get mixed up in it.

Jimmy, listen to me.

You must keep quiet about this.

I can't.

I've got to do something

about it, Isabelita.

I've got to tell the police.

But Jimmy, if he finds out!

Think I can do it

without his finding out.

We'll talk about it later.

I suppose showing himself in public

is Reed's way of thumbing his nose

at the murder charge.

Yes, but I wish he'd picked out

some other caf.

- Having a good time?

- Wonderful.

Isn't this a beautiful place?

I've never realized how much

I was passing up.

You know, this is the first time I've been

to a nightclub since I left college.

- I thought you went all the time.

- Too busy.

Certainly internship is hard work

and no pay.

Besides, I never knew any girls.

What about all these pretty nurses

I thought about?

A doctor doesn't like to be reminded

of disinfectants all the time.

Just think.

If you hadn't walked into the shop that day,

we wouldn't be here together now.

Of course.

Want to dance?

So I don't see how

my proposition can fail

to return big profits

on the money invested.

How does it strike you,

Mrs. Cavendish?

It sounds very interesting.

The way you tell it.

Then, why not come in on it with me?

I've never put my money in

other people's schemes.

It's a principle with me.
