Goin' to Town Page #4

I got into trouble.

I was unsuccessful.

Yes, so I see.

Sorry, boys,

but this is private.

Well, how's

everything, huh?

Cactus no sleep last night.

Me think him catch cold.

Caught cold?

That would have

to happen now.

Come here.

Listen, I'm not taking any

chances around here after

what happened last night.

There's an extra bonus

for you if you'll beat Cactus.

I don't care how you do it.

Anything goes.

Remember, you stand

at the three-quarter pole

and keep your eye on me.

Yes, lady.

Here, Senor Carrington.

Rub Montezuma's nose

for good luck.

Remember you are wearing

the Lopez colors.

Do them honor.

Si, senor.

Listen, Laughing Eagle.

Remember you're

wearing my colors.

So bring home the bacon.

(Laughing Eagle)

Ug.

Hmm, fancy meeting you

in Buenos Aires.

The astonishment is mutual.

I'm glad we've got

that much in common.

Still keep on the brakes?

Quien es esta mujer?

No la conozco.

Well, it's been awfully

nice to see you,

but I'm afraid I have

to join my party.

Don't skid. Yeah!

A friend?

Yes.

(Trumpet Call)

(Band Playing March)

Where's he sitting?

Box next to us,

my dear.

That's great.

Billetes, caballero?

Program?

Mm-hmm.

Would you mind?

Thank you.

Who are you playing?

Montezuma, of course.

I thought so. Too bad.

You're gonna lose.

What's that?

Who's going to lose?

Yeah, you too.

I bet you

50 grand even money

that Montezuma don't win.

What means "50 grand"?

Dollars to you...

50,000 of them.

Oh, papa, take her.

Yeah, try

and get me.

Oh, madame.

I will bet with you.

That's perfect.

Why, don't

be foolish, Cleo...

I should say, Miss Borden.

I know what

I'm doing, honey...

I should say, uh,

Mr. Carrington.

Well, it's your money.

Bravo.

You're a grand sport.

If I only had

the right to lead you

to your true greatness.

Yeah, that ain't

a bad idea.

Hiya, pal.

How 'bout that

little bet?

It's satisfactory.

Isn't that your

boyfriend with her?

Yes, the traitor.

Glasses.

Certainly.

Thank you.

That's all right.

(Bell Clangs)

Plota, frst;

Montezuma, second;

Bonnie Lassie, third,

running easily.

Cactus coming up

on the inside.

Did you see that?

Yes, I get it.

Come on, Cactus!

You can still win!

(Cheering)

And therefore,

it is a great privilege

and a great honor...

to extend

to Miss Cleo Borden...

not only our heartiest

congratulations,

but also on behalf...

of true fellow sportsmen

the world over.

I am sure Miss Borden

will like to say...

a few words to us.

Oh, delighted.

(Applause)

This ought to be amusing.

Ladies and gentlemen,

I had a swell speech

all fgured out on paper,

but I left it at home

on the piano.

I certainly appreciate you

throwing this party for me,

and as far as the success

of me and my horse goes,

all I can say is we came,

we saw, we conquered.

Thank you.

I gave 'em class,

didn't I?

Ivan, you seem

to have money tonight.

Where did you get it?

Ah, that's my secret.

To your, uh,

la blonde Americana.

And to her millions,

which will be soon mine.

You are lucky, Ivan.

You have got what you

have always been after.

Tres bien. A woman

like her should be proud

of getting Ivan Valadov.

Look here, sir.

When you speak of Miss Borden,

be careful what you say.

Don't make me

laugh, senor.

You are doing pretty

well yourself with

the rich Senorita Lopez.

I suppose her millions

do not interest you.

You swine!

Someday you will pay for this.

I thought you

was a gentlemen.

Fighting in a barroom,

smacking around my friend.

Your friend, eh?

Yes. What's it to you?

Oh, nothing. Only

I pick my friends.

Yes, to pieces.

Come on, Ivan.

My darling.

My sweet.

My lovely one.

Never mind that.

I got all the earl I want.

Darling, I just found out

that it's you I'm in love with.

You are the only one

for me after all.

After all what?

Oh, darling, I love you.

I love you.

I must have you.

Marry me.

Now listen, Ivan.

You're all right

to play around with,

but as a husband,

you'd get in my hair.

But, darling...

Besides, we're

intellectual opposites.

What do you mean?

Well, I'm intellectual,

and you're opposite.

I am an aristocrat

and the backbone of my family.

Your family

ought to see

a chiropractor.

Say, where do you

think you're going?

I don't think that

should interest you.

Oh, yes, it does.

I got plenty to say to you.

I'd rather you said it

to that Russian friend

of yours.

You seem very devoted

to him, and you and I

have nothing in common.

What do you mean?

Ain't I worth millions?

Ain't I climbin'

the social ladder? Ain't I

mixin' with swell people?

I can get anything

money can buy.

What more do you want?

Certainly

not your money.

There are a lot

of people who think

the way you do,

but you're sadly mistaken

about the importance

of wealth.

There happen to be a few things

beyond money.

Yeah? For instance?

Natural good breeding,

for one thing.

Culture, for another.

You'd like to have

my ancestors go over and

come back on the Mayflower.

No. I'm simply

making clear to you what

my own standards are...

and what I'm accustomed

to expect from people

I associate with.

When you got plenty of money,

you can get any kind of friends

you want.

You mean parasites,

like your friend Ivan.

Leave my friends out of this.

Then leave me

out of it too.

I can do that.

Why do I have

to like that guy?

Ooh, there you are.

I've been looking for you.

Listen, Winslow, I got

to get a good name.

A what?

I got to be a lady now

if it kills me and you too.

Ain't there some quick way

without a lot of red tape?

If it's social

position you want,

there's always marriage.

Well, that's perfect.

You fnd me a guy

with a good name,

blue blood in his veins and

red ink in his bank book,

and I'll put a deposit

on him tonight.

Well, there's

a man not so active,

but he's a bachelor.

The legs were

beautifully carved.

Clinton Hungerford.

He collects antiques.

Do you think he'd last

till I got him home?

Number eight, black.

Oh, I win!

Any more checks,

Mr. Colton?

Yes. Yes.

Why don't you stop,

old man?

Don't worry.

My luck will change.

(Speaks French)

All bets down.

Are you playing,

Miss Borden?

Yeah, I want to take a crack

at it. 5,000, please.

Very well.

1 8, red.

Quatorze, rouge.

Any more checks,

Mr. Colton?

I'm through.

Faites vos jeux,

Mesdames et Messieurs.

Place your bets.

Too bad, Colton.

Your luck was

miserable tonight.

Yeah, I'm broke.

(Woman Laughing)

I wouldn't do that

if I were you.

Why not?

Give me that.

Give it to me.

You've had bad luck tonight,

haven't you?

Yeah, they cleaned me.

Sit down.

I want to talk to you.

It may sound

a little odd at frst,

but I want you to listen.

How would you like

to step into a fortune?

Are you trying to be funny?

On the contrary,

I'm quite serious.

I'll be frank with you.

I came here to make a deal.

A deal?

Yes. The Colton name

and social position
