They said I should do...

I should do what?

They want me to come out at 10:00 at night...

...and leave my wife and children?

I don't care!

8:
15, 10:00, what difference does it make?

I'm not a wind-up toy.

You tell my superiors at the office,

who can give me raises and promotions...

...that if they don't like my answer,

they can go take it and shove it up their ass.

That's the best joke I've heard all year.

Hey!

Now what's going on?

Hey, fellas, come on now.

Let's just shake hands, we'll go home.

What the hell did you hit him for,

for Christ's sake?

What kind of a fellow are you,

pushes a blind man?

Hello?

Okay. I'll be right over, sweetheart.

Are you sure it's a gallbladder?

You better hurry.

They moved the meeting up 15 minutes.

Why doesn't anybody ever tell me these things?

It's like an oven over there.

Air conditioning must be on the blink again.

What's that?

She's the girl they chose for

the cable-car campaign.

- Oh, yeah?

- Yes.

- Who is she?

- Ask the boss. He found her.

He goes riding once a week in Golden Gate Park.

Guess what he saw galloping through the fog?

Horseback riding?

Ridden much?

Yes, since I was a little boy.

I used to teach horseback riding

to earn extra money.

- See you later.

- See you later.

Okay! Here we go!

Come on.

Everything okay?

Yes. I have a pebble...

...in my finger, in the glove.

Better to get it out now than when you're...

...tearing along like that, you know.

Okay! Come on, big fella.

Hi-ho, Thunder!

Away!

Everything's okay?

Yeah, I was just wondering

whether I should call my wife...

Hey!

The ride to the left is the prettiest!

Yes, I just want to take a look

over here for a second!

I searched all day long...

...but I couldn't find that woman

who was haunting me.

Hello?

How would you like to smoke the peace pipe?

Who is this?

You don't know me?

I had dinner alone at La Primavera.

It's you.

I'm so sorry I wasn't there the other night.

Please, forgive me.

My mother had a heart attack.

I had to spend the night with her in the hospital.

- How is she?

- Better.

She's trotting around.

I mean, she's walking around nicely now, but...

...it was a terribly close call.

Do you know Le Club...

...at the corner of Jones Street and Clay?

Yes.

5:
00.

Hi-ho, pal.

- Got a light?

- Yeah.

- Thanks. Catch you later.

- Sure.

Heart.

Family heart!

Help!

Somebody help!

Hello!

Wait!

Don't move!

Move!

Go!

Hello!

Wait!

Hello, there!

Easy, big fella. Easy!

Steady, Thunder!

Steady, boy! Take it easy.

Everything's under control.

You're in no danger whatsoever.

Easy does it.

Don't be nervous.

Hello, there.

Hello.

That's a gorgeous animal you have there.
