The King of Marvin Gardens Page #4

Pull it out, go outside the car...

and I'm tryin' to...

[Chuckles] pry open her trunk.

All of a sudden,

headlights I'm gettin', right here.

Cops.

I got to admit, let's face it, I look a little

suspicious with a crowbar in my hand...

tryin' to pry open her trunk, not to mention

I got a goddamn woman here - Lucy -

in the front seat tryin' to hide herself

underneath the dashboard.

[Chuckling]

Now I got a cop comin' around...

with a big flashlight here,

lookin' in the trunk.

What have we got there,

behind the spare?

A Kleenex box filled with Swiss watches.

And this b*tch, Shirley...

she's reported that her car

has been stolen.

[Chuckles]

Now, you understand without that...

what you got at the train station is...

celebrity treatment?

You mean you'd have been there

to conduct the orchestra.

[Laughs]

I'd have been there.

Pathetic.

[Chuckling]

Half of 'em don't even know

whether they're standin' or sittin'.

They may wind up sitting on your jury.

Jury? What are you talking about, jury?

I'm telling you the whole charge

is a total charade.

It ain't even gonna get

to the trial stage.

- It's some lunatic who's out in the street -

- [Dog Barking]

totally confused, tryin' to hang my ass

'cause he's got a grudge.

We got apologies in the morning.

- [Barking Continues]

- I was in jail one time, you know, in Cincinnati.

I don't know if you ever heard about that.

I did 60 days.

You wouldn't know what that was like,

but it was really grim, let me tell you.

We've all done our time, Jason.

- [Barking Continues]

- [Elevator Bell Dings]

Isnt she beautiful?

So beautiful.

What do you think, David?

Miss America?

Sure, darlin'. We'll bring her back

next summer as Miss Hawaii.

How's that? In the meantime,

let us formulate some plans here.

You notice how it's not on most maps?

It's just a dot here.

But it's paradise.

A kingdom.

Staebleravia.

- "Staebleravia"! Ya-hoo.

- [Jessica Chuckling]

I thought it was called Tiki.

We're gonna get to rename it next month.

- You can consider that your department.

- Who'd build a resort like this?

Don Dimbleby.

Have you ever heard of him?

I call him "Dimblewit."

[Chuckles]

You understand, this is a man

who inherited his daddy's entire fortune.

Then he pours six million clams

into my little island...

before he bothers to clear

his gambling license.

Now, in an operation this large...

the casino is the name of the game.

I mean, that's where you stand or fall.

But Dimblewit, now, you see, he thinks

that he can do it without politicians.

- [Radio:
Soft Jazz]

- And you never can.

You never can.

[Sally]

Let's try something new tonight, yes?

Come here. Let me help you.
