version of charm.

They were trying to pick up girls

on the boardwalk.

This place is heaven on earth.

Cotton candy, eight o'clock.

Watch me work.

Mary! Right?

Why don't you drop dead, jerk?

I thought you were someone I knew.

Sometimes I hit with a... Mary!

Martina. Mary Ann.

Marge. Kate?

Excuse me, miss.

I'm a photography buff myself.

I was thinkin' maybe we could

get my friend to take a picture of us.

Wait a minute. Time out.

- Do you see this?

- Oh, yeah.

Did you see? She looked

right at me. She smiled.

- That was a smile.

- And she was lookin' right at me.

Which one you want?

The little one

with the silly hat.

She's more my size.

I'll flip you.

- I saw her first!

- All right!

You want the little one?

Take the little one.

I'll take the redhead.

What difference does it make?

They're gettin' away. There's

nothin' wrong with the little one.

The redhead's got

nice legs and a nice chest.

- I'll take the redhead.

- The little one is cute.

She has a nice face and those Cupid-bow

lips I like, but I'll take the redhead.

- You wanted the little one.

- I changed my mind.

I'll flip you.

- Call.

- Tails.

- I got the little one.

- We agree.

- Now they gotta agree.

- Come on.

I'm telling you, you're gonna

get on the Ferris wheel this time.

Remember when you tried to go on?

Last year we tried to get you up there.

- Excuse me.

- You were scared.

Hi. You ladies from around here?

Yeah, we work right near here.

I'm Billy Shields.

I'm a musician.

He's with my quintet.

I'm Emmet Ray.

The Emmet Ray Hot Quintet.

We're at the Lakeside Ballroom.

It's our day off, so we were thinking

maybe you could show us the sights.

- You wanna go watch some trains?

- What?

He's kidding.

Let's go for a drink.

Ask him. I liked you instantly.

I'm bein' honest.

We flipped, he won, I got you.

I'm Gracie MacRae.

Billy Shields.

And if I may say, you have the most

beautiful blue eyes I've ever seen.

This is my friend Hattie.

Hattie, I'm Emmet Ray.

I've got the quintet.

You like jazz music, baby?

How about we take

a boat ride, huh?

Well, sure.

We'd love to.

- We'll ride around the lake.

- Great.

What's your name?

Don't be shy, darlin'.

Hattie don't talk.

She's mute.

Wanna go take a boat ride?

Don't overthrow it.

Throw it down.

That was a good try.

Try it one more time.

That was all right.

Good try.

Thanks for stickin' me

with the dummy.

- Stop whining. You wanted her.

- Then I changed my mind.

She seems like a nice girl.

How could she seem like anything?

She doesn't talk.

This is my one day off.

I want a talkin' girl.

- I think she's a bit of a half-wit.

- What do you mean?
