You get prettier
every day.
Tell me about
Find a place to eat?
I was unlucky. I did.
Where?
If I wasn't a good friend of yours,
I'd tell ya.
How's our boy?
Playing it cool.
How's it, Steve?
Eh. Nice white walls
to mark the days off on.
Maybe I'll draw pictures
of guys with funny faces.
Let's say your face.
You'll be outside soon.
You can forget about going back
to a cell when this thing is over.
That is, if everything
works out all right.
How would you like to have
your lid opened?
I brought you some smokes.
Cops always give me
something I can't use.
I don't have a match.
What did you want me to bring you...
a sack of jelly beans?
[ Door Opens ]
Good luck, Steve.
[ Door Closes ]
Where's the martini
I ordered?
I'm to prepare you for surgery.
I'm on a holiday till Monday.
Take your toys and get outta here.
There's been a change in plans.
Dr. Marston's operating tonight.
I said Monday.
I was born on a Monday.
I might as well go on one,
like dirty laundry.
Miss Millikan,
on the Rawley case,
do you know of any
changes in plans?
I see.
All right, thank you.
[ Handset Settles
In Cradle ]
Surgery's still scheduled
for 8:
00, Mr. Rawley.Tell 'em not to break up
their card game for me.
I only work here.
Yeah, well, you're not gonna
work on me till Monday.
This sedative will
relax you completely.
Stab yourself with it.
I said no!
You're making this difficult,
Mr. Rawley.
When I say no,
Flannigan.
You got trouble?
Yeah. He decided
to postpone his operation.
Bad decision. We don't
upset the doc's schedule.
[ Grunts ]
You shouldn't have done that.
You can get the banana cart.
We'll have him ready for surgery.
[ Nurse ]
Bend your knees, please.
Hey, Doc.
Yes?
I never saw how I
came into this world.
I'd like to see how I go out.
What do you mean?
Give me a mirror.
Let me watch.
You won't see it
for long.
I said I'd like to see it.
Bring him a mirror.
Scalpel.
[ Nurse ]
Sponge count correct, Doctor.
Instrument count correct.
Fine job, Dr. Marston. Fine. Thanks.
You might have made
I hope so.
What kind of a night did he
have? He was awake only once.
Complain about pain?
No, sir.
Continue with
the same medication.
A Mr. Jawald
to see you, Doctor.
Jawald? Who's he?
He wants to talk with you
about Steve Rawley.
Send him in.
Dr. Marston?
Have a seat.
I came about
Steve Rawley, Doctor.
How soon can he
have visitors?
Oh, not for some time.
Insurance investigator, huh?
That's right.
People hock fur coats
they haven't paid for,
burn up businesses that
are on the rocks, you know.
I thought we'd kept this
fairly quiet.
How did you find out
that Mr. Rawley was here?
I know a policeman.
Well, what do you want
to see him about?
I heard you were making
an honest man of him.
honest answers for a change.
He's in no condition
to talk to anyone.
He's just been through
a very serious brain operation.
Yeah, I can imagine. To make that guy
honest, you'd have to cut off his head.
It's our theory that certain instincts...
in this case, the criminal type...
can be removed by surgery.
Whether we've been successful
or not remains to be seen.
In any case, I doubt whether Rawley
will ever be of much help to you.
What do you mean by that?
If we were successful,
he's lost his memory.
Then I'll refresh it for him.
There's a small matter of $130,000
That payroll was insured
