One Girl's Confession Page #4

-Nobody.

She bought the place.

I'm just working here for her.

Cut it out. Where'd you find her?

Where did I find her? Thank you.

Thank you, darling.

Say, what's that?

A little fresh air, if you don't mind. I opened

the window before you all suffocate.

-Isn't she a darling?

-I'm afraid so!

Don't be jealous.

I didn't give her a second thought.

Still working on the first, huh?

Say, stick to the game.

I'm losing money, you're having fun.

Who's having fun, you fool?

I'm winning again. You deal.

-How much can I bet?

-Unlimited. I give you a chance.

-Your Manhattan, honey.

-Thanks, honey.

Mary!

Come.

-Yeah?

-A customer. The kitchen's closed.

Only sandwiches.

-Good evening, sir. What can I do for you?

-Bring me...

I didn't know you worked here.

I never saw you before.

I just started.

Well, I wish I'd have known. I'd have shaved.

What for?

Pretty sharp, aren't you?

What's so interesting over there?

Nothing. Just making sure that

there's no mischief going on in my place.

-Since when are you so moral?

-Well, one has to start someday.

The kitchen's closed,

but you can have a sandwich.

All right, it's a deal. Whatever you say.

Am I glad to see you again.

-You know I couldn't forget you?

-Love on first sight?

-Well, it saves a lot of time.

-Bologna or ham?

Ham on rye, and a beer,

and don't let me wait too long.

-Hungry?

-You bet!

-Twenty for me.

-I've never seen such luck.

-For months he's been winning every hand.

-Well, you should get used to it by now.

-I'll do it myself.

-Say, Johnny, cut it out. She's my niece.

He's just joking.

Hey, isn't he a cop?

You are crazy. It's Johnny.

He's in the fish business.

He sells fish to all these places around.

Comes here once in a while.

-Now he'll be here day and night.

-Isn't that good? I mean, for the business?

Yeah, sure. Sure, for the business.

Thanks. Why is the boss watching us?

He sort of plays my protector.

He seems to be a nice guy.

Yeah, he's all right. A bit stingy maybe,

except when it comes to gambling.

He'll gamble for anything, any time,

any amount.

Seems to be lucky. He wins all the time.

I'd rather invest my money.

Say, what kind of a game are they playing?

It's an old Balkanese game,

only these foreign characters know it.

And how about the kibitzers?

They just stare at the money.

It fascinates them.

Say, I don't know how to say it...

-Say it with flowers.

-You work late tonight?

-Quite late.

-Anybody waiting for you?

Yep.

Mary, make me a few sandwiches, please.

Trying to keep her busy, hey?

Can't I be hungry?

What's so unusual about that?

-Want to make a monkey out of me?

-Why should I take all the credit?
