Goin' to Town Page #5

don't you? You heard of him.

Yes, I knew the bandit.

Bandit?

Oh, you're one of those guys

with principles, eh?

Kind of different, ain't you?

Look here.

You can't expect me

to be very sociable...

after the crude way

you treated me today.

Oh, I'll admit

I was a little crude,

but you like me.

I admire

your conceit.

I know.

You been used to dames

that serve pink tea...

and stick out

their little fngers

when they drink it,

but I like you anyway.

You know, this is the frst

time I ever came in contact

with a woman like you.

Well, if I can help it,

it won't be the last.

You know, I can be

different if I want to.

You ain't seen

my better side.

You're a dangerous woman.

Thanks.

You look good to me too.

Come here.

What's the matter?

You afraid of me?

Afraid of you?

Yeah.

Oh, uh, hello, gents.

I'm sorry, Miss Cleo.

That's all right.

Why, you guys should

never bet with me.

This kind of stuff

is my specialty.

You seem to be having

a delightful time

at my expense.

Would you mind telling

me what it's all about?

Ooh, yes, yes, yes.

These gentlemen and I

had a little bet that

you couldn't be made...

Made a fool of.

Is that it?

Well, you succeeded nobly,

didn't you?

I got to get this signed,

please, ma'am.

All I need is a little more time

to work on that guy.

Yes.

Thank you, ma'am.

The trouble is I'm afraid

you won't have the opportunity.

No?

He's going away.

Going away?

Well, why didn't you tell me?

Where's he going?

His company's sending him

to Buenos Aires.

Buenos Aires? You mean

down in South America,

where the races are.

I been reading

about that in here.

There. Is she a lady?

Mrs. Crane Brittany?

I should say that she was.

He'll be fnding a lot of them

down there, won't he?

Naturally.

Well, he'll fnd one

he don't expect.

What do you mean?

I'm gonna take a shot

at this lady business,

and you got to help me.

- I'll do everything I can.

- It'll take more than that.

First step to my education's

gonna be an ocean trip.

To, uh, Buenos Aires?

Yes, and I'm going

to put that horse Cactus

in the International Sweepstake.

That's a surprise.

Do you consider yourself

a good judge of horsefiesh?

I don't know.

I never ate any.

There's a big difference

in this dump and the joint

I used to work in.

Not "dump." This place.

Well, it's the same thing.

Do you wish a table?

Where are they

taking the bets

for tomorrow's races?

Oh, that's

in the bar, madame.

That's a good place for it.

Lead on, big boy,

lead on.

Who is she?

Haven't you heard?

No.

You don't say.

Which one of them

dames is a lady?

Never point.

They're all model ladies.

I guess these guys

must be gentlemen.
