Penelope Page #3

I believe that man is with me.

Huh? I am?

- Okay, well first there's Hubert Strauss.

- Good. Who else?

- Beaux...

- Great.

- Jack...

- Fine.

...the Ripper?

- Super, who else?

You know what? Why don't I just say,

'Here's twelve men. Trust me'.

Terrific. Let's talk about the dowry.

I think we should double it.

If they can't stand me now what makes

you think they'll be able to for double?

- Oh, now, now with that attitude...

- Oh yeah, it's my attitude, mother.

This guy's got a lot of potential.

I know he's going to look at her.

What do you think of this guy?

Do you like him?

Oh, sweetheart.

I know, I know. It's not my face.

it's my great, great, great

grandfathers face

and he's not me, and I'm not him

and I'm not me.

And don't you forget it.

I gave my right eye

for that story.

And I got back squat.

And that hideous woman

still gives me nightmares.

I thought you never saw her?

Hmm. No, not Penelope. Her mother.

I only caught a glimpse of the baby.

I thought my head

was playing tricks on me.

Well, thank God someone

believes me anyway.

Unfortunately, my believing you isn't

going to do either one of us any good.

We're going to need some proof

to clear both our names.

You think you can get back in there?

Oh, I don't... I don't know.

I mean, if...

No.

- Are you sure? I just need one photo.

- I'm not going back in there.

Alright. Okay.

We're just going to have

find somebody who can.

Hook them up with the

agency that sent you.

No, they only see old money, blue blood

types, it's part of the whole curse thing.

We're not going to find any blue bloods

to help us, they don't need the money.

No, but down and out

blue bloods do.

Check.

Bet.

Read 'em and weep,

losers.

Ah. crap!

You got a Maxwell Campion

playing here tonight?

That's him there.

Poker table number five.

Hey, pal, wait up.

Do I know you?

No, but I know you.

Did a little research.

And it seems in a few short years

you've managed to gamble away

the fortune your family spent

generations building.

Hey, hear me out.

I'll make it worth your while.

You got the wrong guy.

Five thousand bucks worth your while?

We'll need your signature

on the last page.

Just your standard gag.

You don't talk, we don't talk.

Just how ugly is this girl?

I believe the young lady is waiting.

Wow, this guy is

wasting my time.

Oh, he's here.

- Hey, man, look, I'm sorry that I'm late.

- Alright, yeah. Take off the jacket.

Alright.

Hey.

Alright, now... hey you with me?

Alright, the camera is in the lapel.

The rigging is in the sleeve. Put it on.

Come on, it looks great on you.

Now to take a picture

you just raise either arm.

Not now.
