The Duchess and the Dirtwater Fox Page #3

[SIGHS]

Them wives of his look like they been eatin'

real good and gettin' lots of sleep too.

Well, they get one day on

and six days off, so to speak.

If you know what I mean.

[CHUCKLES]

Now, how about our little

stroll down Memory Lane?

Change of travel plans, rabbit.

My next stroll may be

all the way to Salt Lake City.

Me, oh, my.

One day on and six days off.

[INHALES]

Makes your mouth water.

Look what the cold

and blustery wind blew in.

Oh,yeah. There's a definite

change in the weather.

Good night, girls.

It's past your bedtime.

- Oh, Charlie!

- Good night?

Go quietly. Two's company,

four's an orgy.

And she looks like she can

handle the case all by herself.

Here's five dollars.

Go buy yourself an education.

- Geez!

- Go on. Go on.

Well, look who's back.

Her Highness.

Not for long, pig-face.

You make one move

on my trick this show...

and you're gonna be singing

"Hail, Brittania" on your backside...

because your head's gonna be

shoved up your ass.

And what's tragic is, no one's

gonna know the difference.

[CHEERING, APPLAUSE]

Welcome home.

See you changed your

mind, eh, Bluebird?

I liked what I saw.

Well, what the hell.

It's a democracy.

- You made a very sensible decision.

- Thank you.

- Staying in town long?

- Not long.

Me and my horse

are headed for Australia.

Gotta kill a couple days

before the boat leaves.

That's long enough.

- What'd you say your name was?

- Malloy. Charlie Malloy.

Sometimes known

as the Dirtwater Fox.

Dirtwater Fox.

What an interesting name.

Where'd you say

you were staying?

Just across the street.

Barbary Point Hotel.

Really? I've often wondered

what those rooms looked like.

Well, why not come over

for a little nightcap?

Do they allow ladies in?

I think I can arrange it.

It's an outrageous idea.

But I suppose just once.

[LAUGHING, SHOUTING]

Sam!

Evening Mr. Malloy.

Howdy, Bluebird.

Folks get friendly around here

mighty fast.

Yeah.

[MALLOY]

It's all one big social club.

Just make yourself at home.

Ohh! I will.

Thank you.

[CLEARS THROAT]

Well! It's just grand.

Just gracious living.

It certainly is, Mr. Dirtwater.

It's just awfully gracious.

And it looks so expensive.

It is. Best room in the house.

Cost me nearly four dollars a night.

Well, it certainly looks it.

Always like things to be in good taste.

Lots of class. That's my style.

Yes, I can see that.

[KNOCKING]

Champagne and "ca-napes,"

Mr. Malloy.

- Just put it there.

- Yes, sir, Mr. Malloy. Yes, sir.

See what I mean? Class.
