just what you mean by that?
Well, for example,
there was the night the show closed.
It had run for a year...
...and Dixie and Eddie were giving a big
party for the cast and all their friends.
Only it turned out to be mostly
for his friends, his new ones.
Park Avenue was clustered around Eddie
On the other side of the room,
Dixie and I were sitting...
...and I couldn't help noticing
she was depressed.
I think everybody felt the room
was split up into two camps.
The friends who knew him when,
and those that knew him if.
Among his real friends
were Max Milton, his publisher.
the kids had written...
...and was kind of a godfather
to both of them.
And Red Willet, the song plugger.
He'd gone up with Eddie and so he put in
a special plug for all his tunes.
And with us was one of the most popular
radio singers in the country...
...Buddy Crawford.
We'd all known Buddy
when he was just starting out...
...and we'd watched his struggles
along with our own.
But he was on top now, and was always
singing every Crane and Donegan tune...
...he could get hold of.
Maybe we're wrong, Red.
Maybe he belongs
with these hammerheads, after all.
It isn't that bad, Marilyn.
He's just a big kid.
He's found a new sand pile to play in.
Yeah, and a golden bucket.
Can they spare it?
I guess it's perfectly natural.
Eddie come up the hard way.
When I plugged his first number 10 years
ago, he didn't have a cot to sleep in.
You can't blame him
if he wants to eat caviar...
...and go to Lady Triple Chin's
house parties.
I'm thinking of Dixie.
It's tough on her.
It's like the gag: You don't run
after a streetcar once you've caught it.
- Marilyn, you look wonderful.
- Oh, thanks, Buddy.
Red, stand up a minute, will you?
Turn around.
Thank you.
Oh, I get it,
you two want me to be alone.
That's the general idea.
Where's your girl?
There she is, over there.
Cute kid, isn't she?
Yeah. What's her name?
- Lull.
- Lull?
Lull doesn't seem to be
having a very good time.
Aw, she's happy. She's eating.
Oh, a pickle for Lull. Thank you.
Hi, Lull.
Having a lot of fun?
You know, you're gonna ruin your appetite
if you don't stop eating between bites.
- Simply fabulous.
- Out of the world.
- Wonderful.
- I'm glad you like it because I love to play.
Oh, Eddie, it's been simply divine.
The whole evening.
- I'm absolutely shattered I have to go.
- Oh, I'm sorry.
But you will join us this weekend?
At the Lattisons'.
You want me to come
and bring my piano?
- Don't be silly.
- Eddie, how fantastic.
- We want you for yourself.
