Some Like It Hot Page #6

JERRY:

It's just a little inlay -- it doesn't

even have to be gold --

JOE:

How can you be so selfish? We owe

back rent -- we're in for eighty-

nine bucks to Moe's Delicatessen --

we're being sued by three Chinese

lawyers because our check bounced at

the laundry -- we've borrowed money

from every girl in the line --

JERRY:

You're right, Joe.

JOE:

Of course I am.

JERRY:

First thing tomorrow we're going to

pay everybody a little something on

account.

JOE:

No, we're not.

JERRY:

We're not?

JOE:

First thing tomorrow we're going out

to the dog track and put the whole

bundle on Greased Lightning.

JERRY:

You're going to bet my money on a

dog?

JOE:

He's a shoo-in. I got the word from

Max the waiter -- his brother-in-law

is the electrician who wires the

rabbit --

JERRY:

What are you giving me with the

rabbit?

JOE:

(pulling form sheet

out of pocket)

Look at those odds -- ten to one. If

he wins, we can pay everybody.

JERRY:

But suppose he loses?

JOE:

What are you worried about? This job

is going to last a long time.

JERRY:

But suppose it doesn't?

JOE:

Jerry-boy -- why do you have to paint

everything so black? Suppose you get

hit by a truck? Suppose the stock

market crashes?
