I got a lot of tenants
waiting for these apartments.
- What have you done?
- What did he wanna know, Mr. Kofer?
- What did he wanna know?
- Mm-hm.
If you'd been gambling, spending money
- Silly things.
- What did you tell him?
What did I tell him?
I told them that you didn't even pay
last month's rent.
Well, thank you very much.
That's nice of you.
My bathroom.
What are you doing to my bathroom?
- Well, I like this.
- You do? Well, join me.
Dalton, I demand an explanation.
Yes, sir. You see,
he happens to be a friend of mine.
Got in from the Pacific.
Hasn't seen a bathtub in years.
All right, Dalton, all right.
Whatever you're doing
that's bringing detectives around, stop.
Yes, sir. I'll try my best, sir.
- Good night, Mr. Kofer.
Good night.
- Did you get rid of him?
- Yeah.
We better find some other place
to hide the money.
It's no use, Emil.
First time in my life I get any dough,
I can't use it.
Can't even quit my job without having the
bonding company detectives on my neck.
You are in a barrel of rice
with your mouth sewn up.
- Old Chinese proverb.
- Mm-hm.
Of course, you could hide it in your shoe,
hollow out the heel.
The Lavender Kid.
He got away with it for years.
- Kept it under his false teeth.
- I happen to have my own teeth.
We could fix that.
Look, Emil, I'm no Lavender Kid
or Sam Schlemmer, alias Benny the Beetle.
I won this money,
and Mibs and I are going to enjoy it.
I'm going to McKissack in the morning
and tell him the whole thing.
He may not believe me at first, but
the important thing is to tell him the truth.
- The what?
- The truth.
Oh, that old thing.
Look, Johnny,
if you tell McKissack that crazy story...
It isn't a crazy story.
Or is it?
Oh, Emil, what am I gonna do?
I've got the perfect solution.
This ought to get me off
with about 60 years.
You can't use this money, can't hide it,
can't deposit it in a bank.
It might be 50 years before you can
lay a finger on a penny of it, right?
Right.
Suppose I deposit it?
- You?
- In some little out-of-the-way bank.
- In whose name?
- Mine, naturally.
Naturally.
You know, Emil, I'm deeply touched
by your kind offer of assistance.
And I'm so grateful that you're willing
to take these tremendous risks...
...just to help me.
But somewhere way back in my mind,
there's a little voice that keeps saying:
"Dalton, don't be a schmo. "
Some out-of-the-way bank.
Think it over. I'm sincerely trying to help.
If you don't trust me,
who else can you trust?
Yeah, I guess you're right, Emil.
There's nobody else I can turn to.
- I better take the mink coat too.
- Well, do you have to?
Suppose the bonding company detectives
search the apartment.
I'll return it to the store in the morning.
Say, you'll be careful with the money,
won't you?
Don't worry about a thing.
I'll hide it in the apartment.
- Will it be safe there?
- Of course it will.
If I go out tonight,
I'll hire a sitter for my mattress.
Won't you step into my parlor?
I never,
never go into strange men's apartments.
- This is your apartment.
- It is?
- Mm-hm.
- Hm.
It is.
Guess I've got a right
to go into my own apartment, haven't I?
I don't feel very good.
This little piggy went to market, and...
What are you doing here?
Well, that remains to be seen.
And heard.
What's he doing in here?
- He lives here.
- Here?
Over there, on the other side of the wall.
- It's thin, you know.
- How thin?
Thin enough.
Very thin.
- Goodbye.
- Hello.
Hello is right.
Johnny, you're not mad at me, are you?
Because I went out with Bob?
You're not jealous, are you, Johnny?
No. Sleepy.
Johnny?
What's the matter?
Don't you love me anymore?
Kisses and tears
That's all our love is
It's nothing but kisses
And tears
You don't seem to need
The slightest reason
To chase the sunshine
Kisses and tears
It's up to you
If we laugh or we cry
Through the years
Unless you trust me
Whenever a doubt appears
Your future with me will continue to be
Kisses and tears
Kisses and tears
That's all our love is
It's nothing
But kisses and tears
When I kiss you
There is no reaction
You're too busy
With addition and subtraction
Kisses and tears
It's up to you
If we laugh or we cry
Through the years
Unless you trust me
Whenever a doubt appears
Your future with me will continue to be
Kisses and tears
Kisses and tears
- Kisses and tears
- Kisses and tears
Good night, Mr. Kofer.
He's been showering her with gifts.
There's your evidence.
We'd better pick him up
before he makes his getaway.
The bonding company
doesn't operate that way.
But they've got their eye on him.
He bought a new car too. They located it.
Registered in the girl's name.
Then what are you waiting for?
For Dalton to lead us
to the rest of that $ 75,000.
If the bank is to recoup its loss, we've
got to make him think he isn't suspected.
Give him enough rope to hang himself.
I must caution you
not to mention this to anyone.
I don't know whether or not
you're handling this right.
Don't worry, Robert.
I've had my suspicions of Dalton
ever since he asked me for a raise.
And his conduct yesterday afternoon.
The guard told me he walked right out.
Right in the middle of my address
to the employees.
I got news for you.
I thought it was pretty dull myself.
Not one? Nobody answered the ad?
Yes, you better run it again. Thank you.
Hello?
Hello, Mr. Baganucci?
This is Johnny Dalton.
Has Emil come in yet?
Look, Mr. Dalton.
Yesterday, Emil tells me
he's taking a day off.
I haven't seen him since.
Please don't keep calling me up.
It's a long walk to the telephone.
- Sorry, sir. The bank isn't open yet.
- It is for me. I'm Emil J. Keck.
- Who?
- I knew you'd recognize the name.
Young man, can you direct me
to the manager of this establishment?
Emil, you said some out-of-the-way bank
like Hollywood or San Diego.
- Better yet, Singapore.
- I thought it all over.
Where's the last place they'd look?
Right here.
But why all this?
I'm depositing $30,000.
You don't do that in cotton worsted.
Emil, Emil.
Thank you, young man,
you've been most helpful.
And here's 10 cents for yourself.
See how careful I am with your money?
Who is it?
Good morning,
I've come to open an account.
McKISSACK:
Sorry, sir. You'll have to seeMr. Stander in New Accounts.
- Don't you want my money?
- What?
I'm a blunt man, McKissack.
I don't like your attitude.
- McKissack.
- "The Friendly Bank," it says.
Where's the friendship, the warmth,
the open hand and heart?
McKissack, you don't bubble.
Just a moment, sir. Just a moment.
I have banked in New York, Chicago,
San Diego, yes, even Singapore.
And there,
my funds have been welcomed.
Even small accounts of 50 or $60,000.
Won't you sit down, sir? Right over here.
Have a chair.
