were killed?
Well, the one woman
they pinched,
Rosa Parritt,
is his mother.
They'll be coming up
for trial soon,
they haven't got a chance.
She'll get life.
I'm telling you all this
so you'll know why,
if Don acts a bit queer
and not jump on him.
He's her only kid.
Why ain't he out there
stickin' by her?
Must be a good reason.
I get it.
Then what kind of a sap is he
to hang on to his right name?
I'm telling you,
I don't know.
And I don't want to know!
The hell with the Movement
and everybody
connected with it.
(laughing)
If there's one thing
more than another
I can't stand
it's the sucker game
you and Hugo calls
"Movement."
Reminds me of
a damn full argument
me and Mose Porter
had the other night.
He's drunk
and I'm drunker,
and he says,
"Socialists and anarchists,
I-I said:
"Hold on, hold on."
"You talk as if
the socialists"
"and anarchists
was the same thing."
"Anarchist..."
"never works."
"He drinks,
he never buys,"
and if you do ever
get a nickel,
"he blows it on bombs,
"but he wouldn't
give you nothin'.
"So you can go ahead
and shoot him.
"But, uh, socialists...
"sometimes he gets a job.
"If he gives 10 bucks,
"he's bound
by his religion
"to split it with ya
50-50.
"So you don't shoot
no socialist
"while I'm around.
"Of course,
if they broke,
then they're no-good,
bastards, too."
(giggling)
Be God, Joe!
You've got all
and the practical wisdom
of the world
in that little parable.
(laughing)
Sure.
Larry ain't the only
wise guy in this dump.
Eh, Joe?
Here's your guy.
Hello, Larry.
Hello.
What's up?
Thought you'd be asleep.
I couldn't make it,
if you were around.
Well...
sit down
and join the bums then.
The rules of the house
are that drinks may be served
at all hours.
Oh, I get you but, uh,
hell, I'm just about broke.
Oh, I know,
you guys saw...
You think I have a roll,
don't you?
Well, I'll show you
you're wrong.
You see?
They're all one's.
See, I've got to live on this
'till I get a job.
So you think I made
up a phony, don't you?
Well, why the hell
would I do that?
Where would I get
a roll anyway?
You don't get rich doin'
what I've been doin', ask Larry.
You're lucky in the Movement,
you get enough to eat.
What's the song
and dance about?
We ain't said nothin'.
Oh... Oh, I was just tryin'
to put you right.
Hey, I don't want you
to think I'm a tightwad.
I'll buy you a drink
if you want one.
"If?"
Man, if I don't want
a drink,
you call the morgue
and you tell them.
"Come take
Joe's body away,
'cause he sure look dead."
Now gimme the bottle,
