I was watching, sure,
but they couldn't see me.
No, Milty said
somebody told the cops.
- Who told 'em?
- You gotta get out of here.
What chance have we got
if they catch you?
- I'll be all right. They won't get me.
- All right. You hide someplace.
I'll be looking in the street
downstairs for you.
We're going together, do you hear?
Do you hear me, Tommy?
We're going together.
All right.
Hey, where's the party
called Gordon?
Here, me. What about it?
This about it...
I want a kid called Tommy Gordon.
He here?
No. I mean,
he's not here now.
He's my brother
and he lives with me,
but I don't know where he is.
What do you want him about?
What are you looking in there for?
I told you he wasn't around.
Well, he'd better be around soon.
We want to see him,
and you'd better try finding him.
Come on, break it up.
It's all over.
Why don't you go on home?
Come on, beat it.
I live on this block
and I work on this block,
and I got a right
to see what's going on.
Aw, shut up.
Come on, go on home.
- Don't push me!
- Well, go on home.
Well?
The guy's sister's up there,
but there's no sign of him.
Are you sure you got
the right place?
I can hear, can't I?
Gordon, 440.
That's what the kid said, ain't it?
Say, what's so important
about gettin' the punk kid?
It ain't so important to you,
but it may be to me.
Judge Griswald's got a brother
what's got a kid...
Extra! Read all about
Baby Face Martin.
Extra! Paper!
Read all about it!
Extra! Paper!
Read all about the big killing here.
Baby Face Martin killed.
Extra! "Dawn Mourns
for Baby Face. "
Extra! Paper!
Extra! Paper! Read all about
the big killing here.
Hey, fellas, listen to this.
"Mystery man today shot and killed
the famous Baby Face Martin.
"The killing took place
in a picturesque tenement basement,
the walls covered
with blood and bullets. "
Says so in the paper.
The paper can't be wrong.
But that ain't the way it happened.
"It is reported that his last thoughts
were of his mother,
"a plump, pink-cheeked little woman
"who lives in a neat cottage near...
Sunnyside, Long Island. "
The old lady's lived up in that hole
for 30 years.
I don't get this.
It says so in the paper.
They found 20 grand in his pockets.
Boy, 20 grand.
He must've been
Baby Face?
Sure, he was the tops.
Boy, he wasn't scared of nobody.
Boy, he could knock 'em all over
like anything, like nothin'.
- I got a machine gun.
- Bang bang!
No, you can't do that.
You're dead. I shot you first.
- Ah, you're wacky.
- Yeah? So's your old...
Boy, nothin' gonna stop
their party now.
I heard a guy say to Dave's girl
that there was no use
of her acting so funny,
and they might as well
all get soused.
Hey, look!
They're dancing like they like it!
Boo hoo, I'll tell my mommy on you
And as I sit here and sigh, says I
I can't believe it's true
Boo hoo
Hey, look at me, fellas!
I'm dancing!
Look at me, I'm dancing!
Look at me!
Sit down. You smell.
Yeah? Can you do better?
Have you seen Tommy?
We ain't seen a hair of him.
We've been here for over an hour,
and he ain't passed this way.
Milty, have you seen Tommy?
No, ma'am,
not since I saw you.
- Hey, the cops are wise to Tommy.
- No kidding, no kidding.
Ah, baloney.
No baloney.
Some guy snitched.
No kidding.
Hey, guys,
how are the mickeys comin'?
Gee. I bet a dollar
he's sent to reform school.
Sure, that's what they do,
isn't it, T.B.?
Yeah, they sent me to reform school
for just swiping a bunch of bananas.
And they was all rotten, too,
most of them.
I pity the guy who snitched.
The mickeys
are almost done now, guys.
Ouch! Yeah, like a rock.
Hey, T.B., do they give mickeys
in reform school, like these, I mean?
Slop they get, slop!
Unless they get some dough
Tommy will get two years.
Three maybe, I bet.
Yeah, never mind. You learn
a barrel of good things in reform school.
Tommy will, too.
Hey, listen, you guys,
I'm not gonna tell you again.
Aw, why don't you cut it out, you...
I'm telling you, you put that fire out
and get out of here, or I'll call a cop.
Go slip in a lake.
What?
Nothin'.
I'll marbleize ya, you goon!
Ya big palooka!
Hey, the fire's dyin' down.
Better get some more wood.
You get down behind there.
You stay and guard those mickeys.
Come on, let's go down
to First Avenue.
Angel.
- Tommy! Gee...
- Shut up!
What are you gonna do?
Run away so the bulls don't get me.
But before I go, I'm gonna
get the guy who snitched.
- You know who it was?
- Me? No.
Come on, don't lie to me.
I'll kill ya!
You know me, Tommy.
All right.
I think I'm wise to who done it.
- Who?
- Spit.
I'm gonna hide,
so you do like I tell ya.
When Spit gets back,
tell him like this...
the guy I stabbed
was down here looking for Spit
to give him five bucks
for snitching on who done it.
Got that straight?
The guy what he got stabbed
was down here lookin' for Spit
to give him five bucks for...
For snitchin' on who done it.
Right.
Okay.
What are you gonna do to Spit
if he done it?
The mark of the squealer.
Right.
Now go and play your kazoo,
see, like nothin' happened.
Look out!
Gee, Dave.
Gee, how ya feelin'?
How ya feelin'?
We been lookin' all over for ya.
The guys want to know
all about what happened.
Boy, that was some pretty one
you shot across the roof.
- The paper says you...
- Yeah, all right, all right.
You mean you don't want
to tell about it?
Boy, if it was me...
Hey, there was some guys from
the newspapers down at your joint,
banging away.
She was there
I've been looking for you.
Are you all right?
I tried to get to you, but...
I'm all right. I was lucky.
Your boat's sailing tonight,
isn't it?
Yes. I thought it best
for me to go quickly.
I came to see you this afternoon
to find out about...
Yes, I saw you.
You did?
Yes, and I saw what you felt.
Yes, I was frightened.
I thought I had been poor,
but I never saw anything like...
But now it wouldn't have to be.
You'll have some money,
and... I don't want to go.
I won't go if you'll tell me not to.
If I'll tell you not to?
We could go away now.
We could go away together...
away from all this.
We could have a year,
at least a whole year together.
And after that year was over?
I don't know. Maybe back to this,
but I don't care what comes after.
We could have a year of happiness,
and that's more
than I thought I'd ever get.
No, Kay, that's not what I want.
It never was.
I don't want a spree.
That isn't what I was looking for.
Look, Kay, you're an honest girl.
I'll be honest, too,
and then you'll understand.
I knew this afternoon that we...
Well, that it wasn't...
That I wasn't what you wanted?
That you'd made a mistake?
I don't belong in your world, Kay.
You don't belong in mine.
It's good that we
found that out now.
Come on, Kay.
We're waiting.
