"Seems you give things away easily, huh?" " Did you have something in mind?" " For what?" "What you just said before." "You said that I give things away easily."

"Sure, sure." "Bye-bye." "I get it." "Eddie, if nothing happened after four hours, you expect something to happen in the next hour?" "I'm gonna be there in one hour." "I'm don't wanna argue."

"It's quite urgent that I get ahold of her." "I see." "could you just look one more time?" "Sure." "ellen...?" "Yeah, she's afraid of heights." "I'm worried about her." "If she's on a floor that's too high, you know, she gets dizzy." "That would be awful for the hotel." "Acrophobia." "Excuse me just a second." "Mr. powell?" "That's him." "Mr. DoyIe!" " Mr. powell." " Mr. DoyIe." "Which one is it?" "Mr. DoyIe." "Jimmy DoyIe!" "I'd Iike to talk to you for a second, please." "Step right up over here, please." "There happen to be a problem?" "This will only take a minute, Mr. powell." "Where's ellen?" "What luck, running into you." "Fancy meeting you here!" "Boy, you're a winner." "Every time I run into you, you're always causing me great problems." " pleasure." "Good to know you." " What are you talking about?" "You just ruined it for me." "Do you realize he's calling the manager now?" "He's calling the manager." "He's calling the manager because I'm here under an alias!" "And they're upstairs in the room." "We're all gonna get arrested." "You have to go up there now and warn them, and you have to get my suitcase and get my sax under the bed, because I have an audition now." "I have an audition, and if you mess that up, I'm gonna get even with you." "I don't care how, but I am gonna get even with you, 'cause you ruined it!" "Get up there right now!" "I said do you mind?" "I'm having a talk with my sister." "It's a family crisis." "Do you mind?" "Yes, I do mind." "well, you're gonna have to wait a minute, that's all." "Sis, oh, please, sis." "Now, Mommy's waiting." "When I went home on my leg, she was worried for a few days." "Mr. powell, please, you've run up quite a bill with us." "You've only been here a week." "would you mind telling me where you were before that?" " Where was I?" " That's right." "Do you mind telling me where you were?" "Because you know where I was?" "I was in Anzio!" "Anzio!" "I remember now!" "AII right, fine, Mr. powell." "Wait a minute." "I get carried away." "Sorry." "Listen." "Five nights at the Commodore, three nights at the Saint Regis, 25 minutes at the plaza." "Enjoyed room service at each." "In one case, use of the hotel limousine." "Why do you switch hotels so often, Mr. powell?" "You don't even know what you're talking about." "First of all, how could I even sign these checks?" "These are your signatures right there." "But this is my signature hand." "It doesn't even work." "You see this?" "You see that?" "There's no life in that arm." "I might have it amputated tomorrow, and you're telling me that I signed these bills?" "How?" "Did I sign with my left hand?" "I'm right-handed." "How can I sign with my left hand?" "Look at that signature." "Look at it." "Isn't this your sister?" "She oughtta know your signature, sir." "Listen to this." "He's telling me I signed this." " Is that my signature?" " Yes." "That's your sister." "She oughtta know your signature." " That's not my signature." " Yes, it is." "That's his signature." "She's a little crazy." "She's wacky." "You know, in the WACs?" "Yes." "Sis, you gotta go home." "No." " West 55th Street." " What?" "No!" " I'm not gonna do this." " Go home, now!" " AII right." " Remember Anzio, on the beach." "No." "No, no." "It's this way." "It's this way." "And right away!" "And I'II meet you later!" "Mr. powell, I think it advisabIe" "This is a mistake!" "This is harassment!" "I'm not coming to this hotel." "I'm gonna put in a complaint with the manager." " Where is the manager?" " would you lower your voice, please?" "I think you have a Iot of nerve." "You see this?" "When that happens, and you can't explain why." "You want to see my leg?" "It's all wood." " That's terrible." " You can knock it anywhere." "You can drive nails through it." "It's the best kind of wood, but still, it's a wooden leg." "You have a cushy job." "I lost this leg just so you can accuse me of not paying bills in a hotel?" "I can't believe this." "would you push it off, please?" "I can't even control it." "Honey, are you all right?" "Oh, yeah, I'm just great." "well, do you have any last words?" "She--sorry." "Did I scare you?" "No, no." "Listen, I've had her for three years on two fronts." "She's had every germ known to man." "I hope you're not one of them, DiMaggio." " It's Di Muzio." " Is this Jimmy's case?" "What's the matter?" "Can't you take a joke, for crying out loud?" "well, whatever your name is, take good care of her." "What'd you say about germs?" "What germs you talkin' about?" "killers." "Just" "Forgotten, but not gone." " Uh, 242" " hotel OIcott, please." "Wait just a second." "2842 FIatbush Avenue, brooklyn, please." "Do you mind if I take this cab?" "well, yes, I do, but do I have a choice?" "No, you don't have a choice." "I have an audition." "Do you have an audition?" "I have an audition." "I'm late for the audition." "Why don't you come along?" "You have nothing better to do anyway." "How do you know that?" "I was thinking of doing my nails." "What's it going to be-- brooklyn or what?" "I just said it's gonna be brooklyn." "2482 FIatbush Avenue." "2842 FIatbush Avenue." "Same thing." " What did you say about your nails?" " I said I was thinking of doing them." "well, why don't you do them?" "Oh, why you so serious?" "Oh, come on, loosen up." "Come on." "You gave me a hard time last night, really a hard time." "Loosen up a little bit." "Oh, come, come." "Let's have some gum." "This way, you keep your mouth shut." "It'II keep you occupied." "No, thank you." "Bet you're really enjoying this ride, aren't you?" "I'm having a hell of a time." "well, I'm nervous because of this audition and everything, so I've got to chew." "relaxes me." "Oh, God, I'm so nervous about this." "You make it worse, too." "So what did you say your name was?" "I didr't say." " You didn't say?" " No." " would you do me a favor?" " What?" "would you hold something for me?" "What?" "Give me your hand." " For good luck." " For good luck?" "Oh!" "That's very funny!" "You got a real sense of humor, kid." "Boy, I can't believe it." "Listen, I want to ask you something." "You want to know what interests me the most, Frances?" "One is music, number two is money, and number three is..." "I got it." "Uh-huh." "Got it." " What's the matter?" " I don't want it." "They always in that order?" "Sure they're always in that order, unless... you happen to come across someone who grooves you and you want to groove with" "Say, you." "And if things work out, and you start acting a little more intelligent, then possibly, then I'II make number three number one, number one number three, and... number two..." "Now, wait." "Now, now, wait." "Now I'm getting confused." "You put it where, uh..." "You put it where number three is." "That's the way it wouId be." "Let me start all over again." "Let me get this..." "Number three would be number one." "And number two and number three." "exactly, and when you have that, you have what you call a major chord." "What's a major chord?" "A major chord is when everything in your life works out perfectly, when you have everything you could ever possibly want." "Everything." "You have the woman you want, you have the music you want, and you have enough money to live comfortably." "That's a major chord." "Oh." "A 1 , 2, 3, 4!" "That's enough, doyle." "hold it." "doyle!" "What?" "I got a hangover." "That's a little loud." "A little loud?" "What do you mean?" "You didn't dig those sounds?" "You didn't even let me finish, man." "You didn't let me finish the chorus." "Jimmy?" "Uh..." "Jimmy, could I talk to you just for a minute?" "I'II just be a sec" "Look, you know what's happening?" "You're playing terrific." "Yeah." "I think you should play it just a little smoother," "like a ballad or something." "I think this guy's got that kind of attitude." "You know, the whole joint screams that sort of thing..." "well, that's all right." "Are you my agent?" "Want 10/%, huh?" "Sit over there." "Sit over there." "I said when we came to sit over there." "Now sit over there." "Just rude." "Rude." "See what you did?" "Come here." "Come here." "Come here." "Don't do that in front of everybody." "We do this all the time." "Don't talk to me like that and don't touch me." "I just want to say I'm sorry." "I just got annoyed at him, you know." "Sometimes I put my foot in my mouth." " How about my foot in it?" " How about putting your horn in it?" " well, that's what we're here for." " How about giving me a break?" "Come here, doyle." "I want to talk to you." " Get a load of this guy, huh?" " He wants you to come over there." "Come on!" "Come here, come here." "Go there, go there, go there." "Go ahead." "Yeah." "Try and understand my situation, will ya?" "What I got is a boy singer and an eight-piece polka orchestra, you understand?" "Try ChevaIier." "You know any ChevaIier?" "The guys come back from France, they like that sound." "ChevaIier?" "Yeah." "Hey, man, I play that stuff, I kill people, you know?" "This isn't 191 7." "You look a little more hip to me than that." "I'd rather get a job in a post office." "In that case, doyle, Iet's forget it." "Yeah, Iet's forget it." "That's what I said." " No, that's what I said." " No, that's what h said." " No, I said forget it." " No, I said it." "I forgot it."

"We'II wake him in a few minutes." "I'm sort of ready to go back to work." "I'd Iike a little bit of a rest." ""Mr. M. powell." Excuse me, sir." " What are you doing?" " I'm checking in." " Why here?" " Why not here?" "Because I'm gonna get blamed when you don't pay the bill, and you know you're not gonna pay the bill." "well, forget it." "I'm checking in." "Anything else you'd Iike, sir?" "I'd Iike some Scotch and some vodka." "If there's a liquor store around here, maybe we can send the bellhop over." "We'II just put that on the bill, okay?" "When he wakes up, we'II send him out." "AII right, Jimmy." "Look... take this." "This will be enough for a room for tonight." "Just go anyplace else." "It's a Iot easier if I just come up and we start working on the material." "I'II sleep in the bathtub." "I told you, a Iot easier." "No." "will you please take this?" " It's a Iot easier."

"I'm a sax player, but I'm not Jimmy DoyIe." "Do you think it's possible that you can communicate with Jimmy DoyIe the sax player?" "Depends on what you want me to communicate." "I have a very important missive for Jimmy DoyIe." " A what?" " A biIIet-doux." " A biIIet-doux?" " A billy who?" "I'II elucidate." "A tender message from a certain female party." "For me?" " For you." " For him?" "precisely." "Take it, doyle." "It's from Francine." "She said she had a wonderful time." "Hey, wait." "I'II be right back." " Where you goin', baby?" " Be right back." "That girl ain't comin', is she?" " I'm getting her now." " Ten minutes, or you're fired." "What do you care?" "There's no one here anyway." "You had your jam session, and now you're not coming back!" "Hey, man, hold it." "Hey, Daddy, hold it, hold it." "Hey, can I talk to you for a minute?" " Did you read this letter?" " Of course not." "What do you think I am, crazy, read letters?" " Your name is Tony HarweII?" " That's right." " You're an agent?" " Yeah." " You're her agent?" " Of course." "She says, "Just ask Tony if you need any help on anything." "He's a wonderful cat, and he appreciates talent."" " Let me see that letter." " I can't show you the letter."

" possibility." " A possibility?" " That's right." "You're an agent?" "I reiterate, yes." "If I went down there, would you be my agent?" "No." "Why not?" "I ain't interested." "I'm satisfied with the list of clients I got now." "You're makin' a mistake, but okay." "I made a Iot of mistakes." "So I'II make another one." "This one's on me." "well, where is she?" "Why should I tell you where she is if she doesn't tell you in the letter?" "Then why do you take the time to come out to brooklyn to give me this letter if you don't think she cares enough about me to let me know where she is, or to let you know to let me know where she is?" "Doesn't that make sense to you?" "It should, but it don't." " They're in asheville." " AsheviIIe?" "But don't mention my name." "If Frankie asks me, I don't know you."

"swell of you to say that." "Once in a while" "Won't you try to give one little thought" "To me" "Though someone else may be nearer your heart?" "Once in a while" "Won't you think of the moments" "I shared with you" "Moments before we two drifted apart?" "In love's smoldering embers" "One spark may remain" "If love still can remember" "That spark may burn again" "They left?" "Where did they go, do you know?" "Roanoke?" "It is?" "It's the Mayfair club in Roanoke, Virginia?" "hello?" "AII aboard!" "Thank you!" "Thank you very much." "Come on." "You are my lucky star" "I saw you from afar" "Two lovely eyes, at me they were gleaming" "Beaming" "I was starstruck" "You're all my lucky charms" "I Iove..." " Keep the change." " Here's your change." "No, no, that's for you." "Keep it." " Ah, it's only a nickel." " That nickel's for you." "It's a tip." "Ah, take it." " You don't want the nickel?" " No." "AII right, I'II take it." "You are my lucky charms" "I'm lucky in your arms" "You opened heaven's portal here on earth" "For this poor mortal" "You are my lucky, lucky star" "Look at that five-star pain in the ass out there, will ya?" "Look at him clap." "I'm goin' over there and stuff him in the garbage can." "No." "It's all right." "He may be a vet, you know?" " I think I know him." " He's a dummy." "Okay, hold it." "hold it!" "hold it!" "please." "Now, look, you go back up on the bandstand." "I'm gonna come right back up there with you." "Jimmy, I'II talk to you after the set is finished, all right?" "After the set?" "Okay." "Sure." "But first, I'm gonna have a word with him." "AII right, you're upset because I didn't come to you in person and say good-bye, right?" "Right." "Which brings up another thing-- you don't say good-bye to me." "I say good-bye to you." "In no way, shape, or form do you say good-bye to me." " I say good-bye to you." " Oh." " Fine!" "Go ahead and say it." " Say what?" "Say good-bye." "Go ahead." "Come here." "Come here." "Oh, I see." "I'II just have to wait until you say come here, right?" "And then when you say come here, I'm supposed to come here." "Look, look." "You think I came all the way down here to argue with you, huh?" "You think I came all the way down here, chased you, to argue with you?" "I'm just confused." "Didn't you understand when I said "major chord" that I meant it about you?" "Sometimes you really are hard to understand." "You really are." "You're hard to understand." "Don't change the subject." "I Iove you." "I mean, I don't love you." "I dig you." "I Iike you a Iot, and, you know..." "I wouldn't come all the way down here if I didn't like you, right?" "Yeah." "Oh, Jimmy." "How do you feel about Texarkana?" "How do I feel about Texarkana?" "What do you mean?" "What I'm sayin' is that Frankie said that if you came down, you could audition." "I couId audition?" "No, forget it." "I'II play for him." "I won't audition." "Okay." "Don't, Jimmy." "Jimmy, come on." "Jay, will you, please?" "It's slippery out there." "We don't want to slide into town, we want to drive in." "Leave me alone." "I'm tryin' to take a nap." "AII right." "The points." "Give me some quarters." "He's beating the pants off me." "I'm glad I'm working for you." "You should be glad to work for anybody." "You're not the greatest piano player in the world, you know that?" "It's gonna be one of those nights." "I'm a good musician, man." "You really are." "Coming from me, that means nothing." "Maybe someday you'II write something for me, too." "I am writing something for you." "I'm writing this for you." "What?" "You think I check out each room?" " The last time I got a room" " will you get off my back?" "When you play cards, you go crazy." "Why don't you guys zip up?" "clam up, will ya?" "You don't even let me read what you're writing now," "let alone your first poem." "Imagine you giving me your first poem?" "Now let's go into the bridge." "If you let me read it..." "If you let me read some of that, I'II let you write the Iyrics to this." "That's blackmail." "Right." "Oh, Jimmy." "Aw, come on." "Come on, Iet me see what it is." " No, I don't want to." " Aw, come on." " No, it's private." " It's only a poem." "well, it's my poem, and it's for me." "You never let me see what you're writing." "well, I'm embarrassed." "You wrote all this about me?" "It's all about me?" "well, most of it." "It's all about me, though?" "It's not about anybody else?" "It's all about me?" "That's right." "Get your shoes on." "Come on." " Are you all right, honey?" " Yeah." "I know it's not very good, but..." "Come on, get 'em on." "Come on." "I don't know what we're doing now." "Wait a minute." "Here, pay me." "We're gonna be right back." "Few minutes." " No, pay me now." " I'm not gonna pay you now, man!" "You think I'm not gonna have a cab standing by in the middle of nowhere?" "We'II be back in a second, I think." "pull it back with your hand." "Jimmy." "You all right?" "You want a handkerchief?" " It's nothing." " Here, I've got a handkerchief." " You knocked?" " Yes." "I'm sorry." "I'm terribly sorry about that." "Are you the justice of the peace?" "That's right." "You are?" "I'm sorry about the window." "It's just, you know, we're a little anxious." "Is there a possibility that we could be married now?" "We're in a bit of a hurry." "I can't even explain to you why." "I wish I couId." "You can see the way we look." " please close this up, honey." " Now?" "could you please?" "Just take about two minutes of your time." "We'II make it worth your while, and I will pay for the glass, too." " could you, please?" " well..." "I guess I couId." "Oh, yeah, we can arrange it." "We can arrange it." "Come on in." "No." "Uh...just a minute." " Can I talk to you?" " Aren't you sure?" "Yeah, just one second, please." " You're kidding, right?" " Kidding what?" " That was it?" " What was what?" "Your proposal?" ""Get your coat on." "Put on your shoes." "Come on, Iet's go." That was it?" "What's wrong with that?" " They're not sure." " Sure, we're sure." "What's wrong with that?" "I thought it was gonna be different." "It is different." "It's the way I do it." "Anything wrong?" "There's nothing wrong." "They're not sure, believe me." "No, I just thought..." "What?" "Nothing." "I just thought it wouId be different." "Different?" "It is different!" "I krow it's different." "It's not the kind of different I had in mind." "The kind of different I had in mind was maybe sweet and caIm" "It is calm!" " AII right." "That's good." " I'm sorry." "I'm just a little..." " And pretty, you know?" " What?" " Pretty." " It's pretty!" "But you can't say that." "You can't say it's pretty." "I want to marry you!" "What are you talking about?" "please go inside, go inside." "This is private." "would you wait one second?" "I'm coming." " Did you hear what I said?" " Yes." "I want to marry you." "Okay." "Okay?" "What's the matter now?" "What do you want me to do?" "You want me to kill myself over this, darling?" "AII right." "Listen, when I say "now," you back up." " That's it." " Jimmy, I..." "Wait a minute, don't back up!" "Don't move!" "Now!" "No!" "No!" "Now!" "Don't shift, don't do anything." "Just stay." "will you please get out from under" "This happens all the time." "will you..." "will you marry me?" "will you marry me?" "I Iove you." "will you marry me?" "I don't want anybody else to be with you." "I want to be with you, do you understand?" "I don't want anybody else to be with you except me." "I Iove you." "I Iove you." "Look at me." "I Iove you." "Oh, I Iove you, too." "Wait a minute." "See, that was terrific." "You liked that?" "Yeah, I really liked that." "It was a Iot better that way?" " Yeah." " Aw, good." "Hey, no!" "Stop!" "please!" "You missing a man?" "Yeah, FowIer." "Did you find him?" "The house dick did." "Caught him in his room with a local chick." "Big deal." "So what?" "What do you mean, big deal?" "She's 1 3." "FowIer grabbed the guy's gun and started shooting out all the lights." "Cops got him now." "Thanks." "Jimmy, take over for me, will you, please?" "I gotta go bail FowIer out again." "This guy's driving me crazy." "Think I couId do a couple of my arrangements?" "please, not tonight." "Just play the usual, huh?" "Come on, man." "There are only four people in the audience." "What's the difference?" "I don't care about that." "I'm only asking you to front for me." "Now, do you have to give me grief, too?" "AII right, all right." "Frannie, I'm gonna cancel the rest of the tour." "Again?" "What do you mean "again"?" "well, this is the fifth time that you've cancelled." "But this is the first time I meant it." "I really mean it now." "Then I was jiving' you." "I mean it, I'm gonna really pack it in." "Yeah, yeah." "Oh, come on, you remember, we used to go out and do 80, 85 one-nighters in a row." "Yeah." "AII those joints--they're not baIIrooms anymore, baby." "They're like parking lots, skating rinks." "The theaters, they're all bombed out." "I really did, I thought a Iot about it, thought about finally letting somebody else front the band, you know, take a piece of the action." "play there, not have to lift a finger." "But there's only one guy who can front this band." "I know--Jimmy, right?" "No, me, and if I go..." "the band goes." "It's game over." "You know it." "You sure you won't have a little taste?" " No, you have it." " Oh, beautiful." "I will." "Maybe Jimmy..." "would consider..." "You said he's good." "You think he's good." "He's not only good, baby, he's a bitch." "He blows a barrel full of tenor." "Oh, but he's some kind of pain in the ass." " I don't want to start this argument." " AII right, okay, all right." "But he's a top pain in the ass, and that's the truth." "A top pain in the ass." "You want to say it once more-- three times for luck?" "Three would groove me." "It's my favorite number." "Top pain in the ass." "well, maybe you're right, but he's good." "I'm sorry, Mr. DoyIe." "It's not quite what I had in mind." "Yeah, sorry, fellas." "He wants garbage." "I don't know." "Look, Mr. Horace, I know it's not Frankie Harte." "We can do that stuff too, man, but this is a different sound." "I think you should listen to it." "Just give us another chance." "This guy must be crazy." "I made a deal with Frankie Harte and his orchestra, not Jimmy DoyIe and his flying zacamaniacs." "But this is Frankie Harte and his orchestra, without Frankie Harte." "In fact, it's even better." "Frankie wouldn't give us the band if he didn't think it was gonna work out." "That's true." "You know how Frankie is." "What do you have to lose?" "Come on, give me a chance." "What do I have to lose?" "What does this look like to you, a peanut gallery here?" "Looks like a place that needs someone like me, that's what it looks like." "Give us half a chance." "Where's the girl singer you're supposed to have?" "Is she stunning?" "blonde?" "What?" "She's stunning, blonde, everything." "She walks, she talks, dances." "She'd better be good." "AII right, fellas, get on number 358." "Horace, have you gone crazy?" "You've already listened to the band." "You didn't like 'em." "Why do you want to listen to a singer?" "Of course I'm crazy." "How do you think I wound up in this business?" "hello, Mr. Morris." "Okay." "When the mellow moon begins to beam" "Every night, I dream a little dream" "And, of course, Prince Charming is the theme" "The he for me" "although I realize as well as you" "It is seldom that a dream comes true" "To me, it's clear" "That he'II appear" "Someday he'II come along" "The man I Iove" "And he'II be big and strong" "The man I Iove" "And when he comes my way" "I'II do my best to make him stay" "He'II look at me and smile" "I'II understand" "And in a little while" "He'II take my hand" "And though it seems absurd" "I know we both won't say a word" "Maybe I will meet him Sunday" "Maybe Monday" "Maybe not" "still I'm sure to meet him one day" "Maybe Tuesday will be my good-news day" "He'II build a little home" "Just meant for two" "From which I'II never roam" "Who would?" "would you?" "And so all else above" "I'm waiting for" "The man" "I" "Love" "Thank you, Francine Evans." ""But the real winner is singer Francine Evans," ""a spirited filly who sports musical paces as smooth as her form." "Miss Evans seems headed straight for the winner's circle."" "Jimmy, did you see this?" "Yeah, I saw it." "I saw that, yeah." "The guys are all excited." "Everybody's all buzzing around and everything, and paul had a good idea." "He said that we should take one of the quotes" "like the best quote about the--your band-- and put it outside." "Maybe even take something in Dowrbeat or Variety." "Very good idea." "Yeah, that's a good." "This is a good thing." "We might get another week out of this hotel with this." "Did you get ahold of that trumpet player?" "The trumpet player, did you get ahold of the...?" "Yeah, yeah, yeah." "I called his wife." "He's in Virginia on some gig." "She'II give him the message when he calls." "If he's not gonna call, Iet's go with charlie Baxter." "Yeah, I Iike him." "Okay." "I don't know if he's gonna go for the money that we're gonna be able to pay him." "well, that's your problem." "You get him." "That's your department." "Okay." "I'II see you later." "Thank you, paul." "We've never made the papers like this before." "It's really wonderful." "Thank you." "It's really good." "It's great." "Here I go again" "I hear the trumpets blow again" "I'm all aglow again" "Taking a chance on love" "Here I slide again" "I know, I know, I know, I know." "hold it, fellas." "Jerry, you're not cuttin' it, man." "You are not cuttin' it." "If you" " What is the problem?" " If you'II just" "Excuse me." "You're not cuttin' it, man." "Do it as written, okay?" "How do you really want it to sound?" "The way it's written, and the way I explained it to you." "Come on." "I'II try." "No, don't try, do it!" "Don't try, do it, do it!" " You playin' by yourself?" " I don't think so." "'Cause I can put you in a room somewhere, you can play all by yourself." "You sound like you got hooks for hands." "Funny." "Funny, I know, but you're being funny, and you're costing us a Iot of time." "That's a little rough, wasn't it-- hooks for hands?" "You'd get much more out of him" " Are you the bandleader?" " No, I'm not." "Okay, you're not the bandleader, therefore don't tell me how to do it." " 90/% of all drummers are crazy." " I know that." "Look, Jimmy, we only got 1 5 more minutes in this room, then we gotta get out, I gotta do my hair," "I gotta press your shirt, we gotta call Tony, I gotta do my nails." "I got a Iot to do, so we should really go ahead... don't you think?" " Ready?" " Yeah." "1 , 2, 1-2-3-4." "Here I go again" "I hear trumpets blow again" "I'm all aglow again" "Taking a chance on love" "Here I slide..." "Where on earth are you going, Nicky?" "You're rushing that thing like we're at the racetrack or something." "Listen, I'm pickin' up the tempo from you." "Did you have a fight or something today?" " No, I didn't." " well, then, what's wrong?" "You're not pickin' up the tempo from anybody, man." "You're doing exactly what you're always doing." "Your wife is sIowin' it down." " What am I doing?" " Wait a minute." "Stay out of this." " What am I doing?" " Wait a minute!" " She is slowing it down?" " Yes." " I am not slowing it down" " I can handle it, I can handle it." "She's not slowing down anything, man." "We have been through this 50 million times." "You always do this, man." "You always give me a hard time." "Can't you read this and just do it right?" "Now I can't read, huh?" "You can't read if you can't do that." "Listen, I studied at brooklyn Conservatory ard the Staten island Conservatory of Music for three years!" "You did?" "well, it doesn't show, man!" "It does not show?" "well, maybe this'II show." "I'm packin' my axe and my hooks, and I'm cuttin' out!" "That shows." "Okay, I'm gonna show you something now."

" I feel terrific." " You sure?" "I'm not sick." "It's just that, uh..." "Oh, well, I guess now's as good a time as any." "I'm gonna have a baby." "You're gonna what?" " You're gonna..." " ...have a baby." "You're gonna have a baby." "Say that again." "And then I thought you'd be upset." "I'm upset, but I would have been less upset then." "Now I'm more upset, because now you walked out right in the middle." "I'm sorry." "Jimmy, honey... you mind if I lie down for a while?" "Yeah, sure." "Thank you." " You okay now?" " Yeah." "You know what I think?" "Do you want to know what I think?" "Yeah, tell me." "I think I should go back to New York." "Just stay in one place, you know, and wait it out." "Oh, man, I can't believe this." "I can't believe this." "Are you crazy?" "We're on a tour over here, and you want to tell me you're thinking about going home to New York?" "What are you talking about?" "What do you want to do, drop me off in knoxville?" "What we can do is very simple, baby." "We'II get a car--it's not gonna be a new car, if you don't mind." "Of course not." "It's gonna be an old car." "I'II make it nice and comfortable, and you and I will travel in it." "I'II understand if you can't make it." "You can leave the gig the way you did today whenever you want, but you just can't leave all of a sudden." "You just cannot leave now." " Okay?" " No." " No?" "Yes." " I want to go back to New York." "I want this baby to be okay." "I don't want to lose this baby in some strange town or on a bus somewhere." "The doctor said I couId lose this kid if I traveled, and I don't intend to do that." " I just said we're gonna ride in a car." " Do you want this baby?" " I just said we're gonna ride in a car." " Do you want this baby?" "Yeah, I want the baby." "Of course." "Do you wart this baby?" "well, what do you mean?" "You know what I mean." "Of course I want the baby." "Okay, then I'm going to New York." "You're gonna go to New York?" "Go to New York." "Jimmy, I'm sorry." "There's nothing to do." "You get pregnant, you get pregnant." "What can you do?" "That's it." "That's life." "I just want you to be happy." "I'm happy." "I just want you to be so happy so much." "I'm happy, baby." "Are you really?" "Yeah." "Oh, brother." "Got just the thing for you-- a saltine." "I can't keep anything down." "It settles the stomach." "Take it." "The Chicago reviews were great for you, so something big is liable to happen." "meanwhile, I've set you up for some very easy work, studio stuff-- demos, commercials, so you can pick up a couple of bucks." "Tony, I don't think we're gonna need any extra money." "The band's doing so well." "Jimmy said that we..." "Now, listen, with a kid coming, you can always use some extra money." "Right." "blue moon" "You saw me standing alone" "Without a dream in my heart" "Without a love of my own" "blue moon" "You knew just what I was there for" "You heard me saying a prayer for" "Someone I really could care for" "And then there suddenly appeared before me" "The only one my arms will ever hold" "I heard somebody whisper, "please adore me"" "And then I Iooked, the moon had turned to gold" "blue moon" "Now I'm no Ionger alone" "Without a dream in my heart" "Without a love of my own" "Okay. good. that's a take or Jo Stafford."

"They're all there." "Come on, Iet's go." "I'm no bimbo, you know." "I can see the writing on the wall, Jimmy." "What writing can you see on the wall?" "Did I ever call you a bimbo?" "After all we've been through, is that what you're gonna say?" "How could you say that?" "I hope I can trust you on this." "You can trust me." "Yeah, I hope I'm not signing my Iife away." "well, you're just signing the band away." "That's enough." "Okay." "schedule's inside." " The bus schedule?" " Yeah." "Take care." " AII right, uh..." " Good luck." " Say hello home, huh?" " I will." " You keep in touch." " Okay." " See you in the apple." " Good trip." "Move--move over, honey." "We'II hit the 802 eventually." "Bring your racket the next time." "I'II bring it."

"hold your side a little bit over." "Jimmy!" "Jimmy!" "It's pretty." "One of the nicest things in the world is waking up knowing somebody loves you." "You remember this, this old song I wrote?" "How can it be old if you wrote it for me, huh?" "well, it was old when I wrote it." "I'm working on the words, you know?" " Oh, yeah?" " Yeah." "See?" "I got the lyric here... part of it." " Want to see it?" " No, I see it." "Honey, it's gonna be a nice day." "What's the Theory of relativity, that light is curved?" "I don't know." "They say that only five people in the whole world, you know, know really what it's about." "well, the Japs understand, from what I know." "You want to talk about it?" "What do you mean?" "I mean about the band and how you feel and... how you are." "I don't know." "It just didn't work." "I got so worried, you know, when I didn't hear from you for three days." "I thought you were coming home, and you didn't." "well, I was..." "Didn't you get the telegram that I sent?" "No, I didn't get it." "Look, I didn't send a telegram." "I just really wanted to be alone for a while, by myself, that's all." "I wanted to figure some things out." "I stayed down South for a while, and that was it." "well, that's normal." "I understand that." "No, you don't understand that." "Don't tell me you do, 'cause you don't really understand it." "But I had to do it, baby." "well, I understand that I don't understand." "Okay, that's being better about it." "Hey, man!" "Jimmy!" "Hey, man!" "How you...?" "AII right." "How you been, man?" "Come on over and meet some friends of mine." "This is Booty and this is Washington." "Hey, Jimmy, I hear you play a mean tenor." "Yeah." "I heard about you, too." "Hi, there." "How you been, man?" "What you doing?" "Where you been, huh?" "I went on the road with Frankie Harte." "Went on the road with him for a while, then after that I took the band over myself." "I heard something about that." "Kinda slipped away or something, huh?" "No, it didn't slip away." "You heard that, though, huh?" "Yeah, you know, talk around here, you know..." "No, it didn't really slip away." "What happened was that, you know, uh..." "I was working with bad musicians." "I mean, you can't pitch new cats in Scranton or AIIentown, PA, right?" "You've got to come back to the apple." "But, you know, you see the same old faces, same old places." "I'm wondering if I should be back here, man." "The same thing." "Listen, man, if you get it together again, Jimmy," "I got this little thing going over at the harlem club, man." "Oh, yeah." "Some really good cats over there, man." "You've got to come over there." "I will, I'II come up." "I've heard a Iot about it." " There's only one problem, though." " What's that?" " They let white cats in?" " If you come around the back." "Hey, man!" "talk to it!" "talk to it!" "Okay, before you get excited, just let me explain what happened." "Remember that cat CeciI powell I used to always tell you about?" "Mm-hmm." "Yeah, all right." "Okay." "We'd better go to lunch." "I'II explain it to you then." "What's this?" "What am I getting into?" "What are you getting into?" "You're getting into a Buick." "A 1941 green Buick." "Just get in." "I'II explain it to you later." "Trumpet player O.D.'d." "Long story." "Just get in the car." "I'II explain it to you later." "Baby, if you don't get in the car, I have no way of talking to you."

"I'II be home in a little while, so there was no reason to call." "Jimmy..." "Hi, there." "Yeah, hi, there, how are you?" "Are you pulling out?" "Do I Iook like I'm pulling out?" "Uh...excuse me." "Yeah?" "Look, I don't mean to-- would you look at me, please?" "If I Iook at you, I'm gonna get upset." "Yo!" "Hey!" "Look at me!" "I can't believe this guy!" "I'm looking at you, man!"

"You didn't even wait to see if I got in all right, and I have trouble getting around now." "I do." "I understand you're pregnant." "What do you think I am, a dummy?" "I just lost a band, for crying out loud." "If it had clicked, I'd still be with the band right now, right?" "When you wanted to come back to New York to have the baby, did I stop you?" "No, I didn't stop you, right?" "So you can't stop me." "And another thing I'm gonna tell you, I don't like you doing that stuff up there." "What stuff?" "The demo stuff." "You're too good for that."

"You know, the other guys are married, too, you know, and they have those things." "I know." "well, I'II take the day shift and you take the night shift." "Honey, you're making it very hard on me, baby." "You want me to take this, and I'm gonna throw it against the wall." "I'm gonna smash it into a million pieces." "That what you want me to do?" "Because that's what you're telling me to do." "This is the most important thing to me besides you, you understand?" "And if I can't do this, then I'm not good for you, and I'm not good for anybody, baby." "You understand?" "paul wilson called up, and he said he had, uh..." "He's opening tomorrow night at the Up club." "Yeah, I know." "So he wanted us to come." "I said, you know, probably we will." " Oh, I'd love to." " would you?" "Yeah." "Spend some time together." "It'd be good." " See the fellas." " Yeah." "You know how depressed ellen's been lately?" "I thought maybe we could introduce her to Artie Kirks." "Artie Kirks?" "Yeah, the record producer I told you about." "Now, look, maybe if..." "That's another thing, if you want to go by yourself, possibly you and ellen, because of business reasons, that's okay, I don't object to that, and I couId meet you later, that's all." "I didn't mean it like that." "I'm sorry." "Is it okay?" "Yeah, it's okay." "Right." "Oh!" "Wait till I show you what I got!" "Look at this." "Don't worry about it." "Oh, honey." "You were looking at the words to the tune, huh?" "Yeah, I was." "And that's what you're gonna call it, New York?" "New York." "Yeah, that's what I said, New York."

"New York, New York." "It's, uh, "top of the heap," too." "And this is the final version?" "well, not necessarily." "I want to fix up some parts." "It's very good, honey." "Okay, I'II see you later." "AII right." " Have a nice night." " Thank you, baby, you too." "See you later." "I can change "top of the heap."" "Bernice Conrad and the paul wilson Orchestra." "Oh, man." "What am I doing here?"

"When we're apart" "The words in my heart" "reveal how I feel about you" "Some kiss may cloud my memory..." " Try it again, darling." " It's hard." " Two out of three." " Okay, okay." " You missed again." " You didn't wait." "well, I'II give you one more try." "You ready?" "Oh, you've got it." "I'II give you my personal check." " Okay." " But don't try to cash it." "Yes, sir?" "Yeah, I was just parking the car." "doyle." "Oh, yes, Mr. DoyIe, your lady friend's right over there." "please follow me." "That's not my lady friend, that's my wife." "Pardon." "That's all right." "Don't let it happen again." "only kidding." "hello, hello." "Jimmy, this is Mr. Kirks, from Decca Records, and Mr. Kirks, this is my husband Jimmy." "Sorry I'm late." " Better late than never." " Yeah, well, I'm sorry I'm late." "It's hard parking a car in New York at this time of night." "How are you?" "I'm doing just fine, Jimmy, how are you?" "I'm doing well." "How's Eddie?" "Eddie who?" "Eddie who?" "I knew that was coming." "Looks like Eddie's out the window." "Di Muzio." "Waiter, dear." "Jimmy." "That voice always gets 'em, too-- you know, when I said, "Waiter, dear," with the heavy voice, and the reason I call 'em "dear," otherwise they spit in your drink." "You say "dear," they're nice to you." "You get it?" "Any time you go into a joint, you know what I mean?" "You call 'em "dear."" "Here's the waiter." "Waiter, would you give this gentleman a sloe gin fizz, and step on it." "I don't want a sloe gin fizz." "I don't even know what a sloe gin fizz is." "He doesn't want a sloe gin fizz." "What do you want?" "I want you to be comfortable." " You know what I would Iike?" " What would you Iike?" "I would Iike a big glass of milk with about twelve shots of Scotch in it." "well, why don't you just get a fifth?" " She said it." " You got it." "Fifth of Scotch, a little ice." "A bucket of ice." "tell you what you do, waiter." "No, look at me." " You got the order?"

"Listen, I've heard a Iot of nice things about you." "Your wife tells me when you had the band, you used to blow the roof off." "Look, man, can I tell you something?" " I'II be straight with you." " I want you to be." "I don't want to be here, I don't want to listen to this music," "I don't like this joint, and I don't give a damn, man, for any of that stuff." "Let's go." "Come on."

"Thank you." "Everything all right?" "Yeah." "So, uh, Jimmy finally got here, huh?" "Hi, Jimmy." "Hey, paul, how ya doin'?" "Give me your hand." "Come on, reach out, reach out, reach out." "Come on, Jimmy." "You all right?" "Can I tell you something very privately?" "Yeah." "Do you mind if I touch you Iike that?" "I'm jealous." "I think you're so good that I can't even top you." "well, I'm really flattered." "well, you should be flattered." "definitely be flattered." "A great compliment for a great musician." "From a great person." "Everybody feels you're great." "Even your wife." "Even your wife, man." "Uh, ladies and gentlemen, the band is back now." "We're gonna start out with a...um..." "We're gonna start out with a medley of special requests."

"No, everything isn't quite fine." "I would Iike to know what we're all talking about." " You mean the deal?" " Yeah, exactly." "It's logical." "As a matter of fact, when I heard her, I said, "That's it." "absolutely sensational." "This is it." "Fantastic." "A smash."" "And I'm telling you, from my mouth, this is it." "And this isn't just for one shot." "There's a couple of things I'm not really comfortable with, and one is the traveling." " The promotional tour..." " Is that a problem?" "I don't know if I want to travel." "You gotta travel?" "What about the baby and all that?" "Yeah, exactly." "There's nothing we can't handle."

"He'II give you a whole pack." "Put it on my tab." "We'II celebrate." "You know, the contract." " Have a cigar." " No, it's not the same." "Jimmy." "Whoa, excuse me." "Listen, Jimmy, I just think that she's the best." "She's gonna make it with me or without me." "I'd rather it be with me." "I'II consult everything." "Come up to the office." "feel free."

"This looks thick, sweet, you know?" "probably." "Got any other colors?" "well, we've got one with a whole lot of colors." " I'II try that." " Okay." "I don't buy sugar" "You just have to touch my cup" "You're my sugar" "It's sweet when you stir it up" "When I'm drinking sips from your tasty lips" "Seems the honey fairly drips" "You're confection, goodness knows" "HoneysuckIe rose" "Thank you." "Yeah." "What the hell are you doing?" "What the hell are you doing?" " I was celebrating." " You almost killed us." "What was that all about?" " I was just celebrating." " You're celebrating?" "Look at you!" "You look disgusting!" "What do you want me to do about it, Jimmy?" "What am I supposed to do?" "Did I tell you to have that baby?" "Did I tell you to have that-- that goddamn baby?" "No, I didn't tell you." "You had it." "Now, you have it, now, keep it!" "That's it, go ahead, keep hitting me." "That's right." "Go ahead, hit me." "That's right." "You had it!" " Now you're crying when it gets tough?" " Oh, be quiet!" "When it gets tough, you cry?" "Forget it." "I'm not going through this anymore." "You said it." "You want that." " It's not what I want, it's the way it is." " It is too what you want!" "It is not what I want!" "I'm scared!" "You're scared?" "You're scared?" "What about me, for chrissakes?" "What are you scared about?" "You got everything, man!" "I'm the one that's scared." "Not you, me." "I'm scared." "'Cause you got it easy." "I got nothing." "It's always you, isn't it?" "You're damn right it's always me, the way it's you, they way you had the kid when we shouldn't have had a kid." "Going back to New York." "What are you crying for?" "Cry!" "You...cry!" " I do care about you." " You do not!" " I do care about you." " You do not!" "You want to know what you care about?" " I care about you." " You care about your clubs..." " I care about you." " and your friends..." " I care about you." " ...and your music!" "You're damn right, because that's something special to me!" "That's what the problem is, I don't care." "No, I do care!" "That's not the problem!" "I do care!" "I do care!" " You do not care!" " I do care!" " You don't care!" " Crazy!" "You're driving me crazy!" "AII you care about is you!" "You're driving me crazy!"

"When you're looking for one, you never find one." "Oh, God!" "Oh, no!" "Oh, no!" "Oh, no, no, no, no!" "Don't worry, honey, you'II be all right." "Just take it easy." "Don't get excited." "How you doing?" "Is everything all right?" "Yeah." "Good." "Did you see him?" "Who?" " The baby." " Oh, the baby." "It's a him?" "Yeah." "I named him Jimmy." "You named him Jimmy?" "What do you mean, you named him Jimmy?" "This is official?" "You named him Jimmy?" "Yeah." "There's one thing I want to tell you that you're wrong for doing." "You should have let me decide on what the name was with you instead of just giving the kid a name right away." "I mean, I am the father, and if I am the father, no matter what the situation, you should at Ieast let me do that." "That's the least thing you could let me do." "And maybe I don't want to see the kid for that reason." "What, do you think you're gonna make me feel guilty about it?" "Give that name to that kid running around." "After everything that's happened with us, you had to give the kid the name Jimmy." "No way." "I don't want to see the kid, because if I see the kid, I'm gonna break up." "I don't want to see something I-- What good is it to see the kid?" "I wish this lady wasn't..." "How could I see the kid?" "What am I gonna say to it?" ""Hi, I'm your father." "I'm going away"?" "What are you gonna say to him?" "I can't say anything." "I'm sorry." "I'm sorry, too." "I know." "Jimmy..." "I don't want to use my handkerchief." "It's the only one that I have, that's why." "There's no way that it's gonna..." "I Iove you." "But it's not..." "AII right, I'm just gonna go." "I'II see you later." "Jimmy." "Jimmy." "I don't know what else to say." " Good-bye." " Good-bye, baby." " Good-bye." " I'm sorry." "I Iove you." " Good-bye." " Good-bye." "That's not possible." "Mr. DoyIe, I can take you over to see your baby now, if you'd Iike." "Thank you."
