Cry Danger Page #2

I don't-

I got a bag in the car.

Go get it, will ya?

Let's get out

of this hot sun

Into a nice,

cool bar.

In a few minutes,

honey.

So it's honey

already.

I call everybody

honey.

Darlene, what do you do?

Well, I'm sort of

a part-Time model.

Oh.

I don't get it,

Rocky.

Why do you want

to fool around

With that

Nancy Morgan

When I've got

a lot of friends

More cute

and more fun?

I may call on you

for help later.

Mmm. I'd like

to see me

With 100,000 hidden

away someplace

And just gettin' out

of 5 years

In the clink. Wow.

You know, alongside

one of my friends,

That Nancy Morgan's

a deep freeze unit.

What about that saloon

we were gonna look up?

In a few minutes,

honey.

Of course, you being

her husband's friend

Helps a lot.

I guess

it'd be all right

If you took her out,

wouldn't you say?

I'd say you talk too much.

Hey, you gonna

sit there

And let him talk

to me like that?

Nope. Let's go

to some nice, quiet place

Where we can't

hear him.

He's got some nerve.

Look, you run along and wait

for me in the car, huh?

I'd still be willing

to forgive and forget

And call up a girl

for him.

Run along, Darlene,

Before I fracture

your spine.

Some funny guy,

aren't you?

Gonna go after

that money pretty soon,

Eh, Rocky?

Pretty soon. Yeah.

Don't wait up

for me.

I don't like it

at all, Mr. Mulloy.

Well, I'm sorry

to hear that.

I wish I knew what you

were talkin' about.

There's been a man

in my office

Asking questions

about you.

Irish guy,

looks like a saint,

Acts like a thug?

That's right.

I think he's a cop.

I know he is.

I been thinkin'

about things.

That Mrs. Morgan-

She's the wife

of the guy

Who pulled the stickup

with you, isn't she?

No, she isn't,

Because we didn't

pull any stickup.

Well, what I meant-

What's bothering you?

I don't like the cops

hangin' around.

Well, forget

about the cops.

They're not interested

in any two-Bit setup

You got here.

Well, I don't want

any trouble.

Look, is my rent paid?

Yeah.

Well, then

stop bothering me.

I still don't want

any trouble.

Neither do I, from you

or anybody else.

Rocky.

Hello, Nancy.

Better grab me quick

Before my knees

give way.

Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean

to surprise you this way.

Oh, that's all right.

I knew you'd be here.

Let me look at you.

No change.

Same height, same weight.

Oh, you look fine.

When did you get in?

A few hours ago.

I moved Mr. Mulloy in,

Mrs. Morgan.

I'm in inner sanctum

number 12.

I thought we all

ought to get together

And have a little talk-

Good-Bye, Mr. Williams.

Hungry?

Wasn't I always?

You were lucky

to get a place here.

Mr. Williams

likes couples.

Oh, he got one.

Delong's with me.

Oh, the marine.

That's right.

Invite him to dinner.

We'll put more water

In the soup.

He's out bar hopping

with a gal named-

Believe it

if you can-

Darlene la Vonne.

When the marines land,

Darlene's always there

waiting for them.

Hey, this is nice.

What a break, Rocky-

His showing up

after all this time.

It's more than a break.

It's more like

a miracle.

How is Danny?

Just fine.

He told me to have a drink

with you for him.

Is he really all right?

Nothing wrong with him

That getting out

wouldn't fix.

Only 6 more months.

With luck.

Did he mind your

getting out very much,

Since he had to stay?

I couldn't do him

any good up there.

Maybe I can down here.

Oh? How?

Well, Delong proved

They were wrong

about me.

I'm going to prove

The same thing

about Danny.

You're going to try

to open up

The whole thing again?

I'm going to turn it

inside out.

But that just sounds

like more trouble.

What more can

happen to us?

We've had 5 years

yanked out of our lives.

That's a long time

When you break it up

into hours.

Why don't you fix us

that drink, Rocky?

It's in the cupboard.

All right.

You stop worrying.

Remember the day

I introduced you to Danny?

I was so proud

of my girl,

I wanted to

show her off.

That was

a long time ago.

20 centuries.

You both deserve

a better break than this

Hanging over your heads

the rest of your lives.

Rocky, you never

told me how your felt

After we had

that quarrel,

And Danny and I

got married.

You know how I felt.

I crawled away and died

for a few weeks.

Only for a few weeks?

It lasted longer

than that with me.

But you wouldn't

change it now.

Of course not.

But sometimes I wonder.

Don't.

Not even sometimes.

Rocky, why can't we

just forget everything

That's happened?

Forget?

I mean about

the prison

And you and Danny

and the holdup.

Even if

you are innocent-

Even if I'm innocent?

I didn't mean it

that way.

Of course you did.

No, I didn't.

It wouldn't make

any difference to me

If you and Danny

were involved.

But we weren't.

I know you weren't.

Oh, Rocky,

why do you twist

Everything I say?

Oh, big homecoming,

And I'm showing you

a bad time. Sorry.

Looks like lassie's home.

Come along.

I'll introduce you.

Well, pull up some dust

and sit down.

You, of course,

would be Nancy.

Of course.

You're out of bounds.

Am I?

According to my

underworld friend.

Where's Darlene?

I'm very disappointed

in Darlene.

She turned out to be

a part-Time model

And a full-Time

pickpocket.

We may very well

have visitors before long.

What happened?

We had a great

many drinks

In this place

she knew about,

And when she thought

I was tight enough,

She went for

my bankroll.

Country boy,

city girl.

I slapped her wrist.

The bartender

didn't like that.

What about

the bartender?

I let him have it

over the head

With a peanut machine.

He's resting now,

In the emergency hospital.

Oh, swell.

You better run along.

He's right

about the visitors.

But what about you

if the police come?

We're old friends.

We can always find things

to talk about.

Oh, Rocky-

See you tomorrow.

All right.

Good night.

Have you read that book,

What to do

until the police come?

I know

all the answers.

The bartender

gave me a drink

That tasted funny,

And I don't remember

anything after that.

Give me the keys

to your car.

You burglars always

work at night, don't you?

And about 10 bucks.

Sure, sure.

We're partners.

You want me

to go along?

No, thanks.

Oh, uh, if you run

into Darlene,

Tell her all is forgiven.

Delong, you go

for the bottle

An awful lot.

You never get

to the point

Where you say things

you shouldn't, do you?

What milk is

to a baby,

That is to me.

Go commit your crimes

with an easy mind.

I'll see you later.

I sincerely hope so.

Where are you going,

Rocky?

I've gotta go

see someone.

How long have they

been here?

They just got here.

Isn't that a little

foolish, carrying a gun

Just the day after

you got out?

You better go

to bed, Nancy.

Be careful.

I will.

Oh, uh, you

wouldn't be looking

For a fella

named Delong, would you?

Yeah. Do you

know him?

Friend of mine.

Ex-Marine.

Wants to file a complaint

with you boys.
