---

- Thank you.

- What do you want to see Mr. Flynn for?

- Somethin'

- What's in the box?

- Nothin'

Gabby little guy. Kind of young

to be a process server, ain't you?

But we've been carrying your bill

for six months, Mr. Flynn.

Ordinarily,

we wouldn't bring this up.

It wouldn't be necessary to pay

the whole thing. Just a token payment.

- Anything.

- Pinky!

I'm glad you're here, fella.

How are ya?

- Fine.

- That's all, gentlemen.

- Quicker, please, quicker.

- Oh, yes, yes.

Am I glad you're here.

You two know each other?

Pinky, the Moke.

Moke, this is Pinky.

- Hi.

- Hi.

- My partner.

- Your what?

Partner.

- Hey, how's Curly this morning?

- He's fine.

Good. 'Cause he's gonna be

a busy little feller.

Say...

he doesn't get sick, does he?

Oh, no.

He's as strong as a fullback.

Good.

That's all I wanted to hear.

We've got to keep him in tiptop shape.

Have you had your breakfast yet?

No. We had to sneak out of the house

before my sister got up.

- I'll order some right away.

- Hey, wait a minute.

- What goes on here?

- A miracle.

I'm holding on to my theater.

Room service, please.

You mean you got a hold of

the hundred grand? How'd you do it?

This is Flynn.

I want some orange juice...

buttered toast,

scrambled eggs and coffee.

- How about the same for you, Pinky?

- Could I have a hot dog...

with mustard and ice cream

and sauerkraut?

Do you always

have that for breakfast?

No. That's why I wanna have it now.

Okay. And one frankfurter. Give it

the works, with some ice cream.

Just a minute.

What about you, Moke?

- What do you want?

- I wanna see that money.

You'll see it,

but I haven't got it in cash.

Mr. Flynn, Curly would like

some cabbage leaves... raw.

- Expecting company?

- No.

One order of cabbage leaves,

no dressing.

- Who are the cabbage leaves for?

- Curly.

Oh, for Curly.

Look...

if you haven't got it in cash,

you sure the check is good?

- No check.

- No cash, no check.

- You're sure you've got it?

- I got it.

It's right here in this box.

Oh. Jewels, huh?

You got the kid

handlin' hot jewels?

- No jewels.

- No cash, no check no jewels.

I give up.

What shape's it in?

- A caterpillar.

- Caterpillar?

Oh, I know.

Out of a museum.

Solid diamond with a curse on it.

No, a live caterpillar.

A fuzzy, little brown caterpillar.

And he dances!

Soft shoe, or buck and wing?

Or maybe he does taps too, huh?

Pinky, show him.

- Look right in there.

- I'm gonna see a caterpillar dance?

That's right.

You're sure your partner

ain't got you on the bubble gum?

- Now, what do you see?

- A worm wigglin'

- Now what do you see?

- A worm stopped wigglin'

Now do you get it?
