Ladies They Talk About Page #4

And you can be on your way.

Here you are, Dave.

What's the matter, what's happened?

I'm sorry, Walter.

What do you mean?

Oh, I just told him something.

Something he didn't know.

Yeah?

Yeah.

Before he can rat on me, I'll beat him to it.

I was in on that bank stick-up.

Who were your companions, Nan?

I didn't get their names.

Send in the matron.

You're going on a little trip.

I'm all packed.

Scram!

No me quito.

Is that so?

Now listen, sister. I've got a season's ticket

for this chair and it's got three years to go.

So supposing you get out?

No me quito!

Come on, now.

No me quito!

I don't want to hurt you now...

No voy a quitar la silla!

Vale! Me voy e despus le doy toda la ropa

porque me hicieron quitar mi silla.

Whatever you do, you'll clean it up yourself.

Had a bath?

Yes.

Give her a dress.

Here's a neat little model. Ought to fit you.

Can't I have a new one?

Ask Ms. Johnson, there. She's head matron.

How about it?

Maybe, after you've been here a few years.

Come on, now. Get into the dance.

Get in there and get that on.

Gee, I thought the County Jail was tough.

This is a penitentiary, not a pink tea.

You're telling me?

New fish! New fish!

Well? Make yourself at home.

And now, ladies and gentlemen,

as is usual at this hour,

we have the pleasure of presenting David Slade

who will discuss tonight the recent failure

of the City Power Trust.

Hey, you can't do that sort of thing around here.

Just a minute, girls.

We have a rule that you have to ask permission

to touch the radio.

There'd be a riot if we let every girl change the thing

every time she didn't like the tenor or something.

Well, there's gonna be a riot if anybody turns on

that pious stool pigeon again.

Your personal likes and dislikes

don't matter much up here.

Say, Newman, you gonna let this new fish

get away with that?

You know I've got permission to listen to Brother Slade

any time I want to.

If there's gonna be trouble about the radio,

there isn't gonna be any radio.

Listen, don't think you can walk in here

and take over this joint.

There's a lot of big sharks in here that just live

on fresh fish like you.

Yeah? And when they add you up,

what do you spell?

That goes for all of you.

Just another dame trying to show how brave she is.

Yeah, tonight she'll be crying her heart out.

If I hear his voice on the radio again...

...I'll kick all the tubes out.

I know, you're afraid to listen to him.

You're afraid he'll make you decent!

Listen, sister...

I heard him in the witness box at my trial

when the judge said "I hereby sentence the defendant

Nan Taylor to a term of two to five years."

Oh, so you're Nan Taylor.
