Hell to Eternity Page #5

Never run out of ice as

long as that dame's around.

oh, you're mean.

I don't get it. She's got

all the standard equipment...

...she's got the extras. Comes

off the line without a motor.

She's got the motor.

The man with the right

key hasn't shown up yet.

I wouldn't mind.

Yeah, baby!

You'd leave little old Sono?

oh, no, I wouldn't leave little old Sono.

I wouldn't want hara-kiri on my conscience.

Don't flatter yourself.

After all the trays I've carried tonight.

I want somebody as tired as me.

Like that one.

Let's go, soldier.

oh, I've had it, honey.

What's the matter, Pete? Did you run out of:

I don't know, I don't know, honey.

If I've got anything left I'm gonna

save it for something important. okay?

Let's catch our breath, huh?

You catch your breath.

I ain't quitting while I'm ahead.

Go, baby.

Hey, let's go, Famika. Go, honey.

oh, yeah.

Now, that's what we're really

fighting for. Not Ma's apple pie.

- Hey, she's the greatest, right, Gabby?

- Great.

She should be. She was the

best stripper in San Francisco.

No kidding.

Stripper?

Hey, Peter.

Famika is a stripper.

- What?

- Famika's a stripper.

- A stripper?

- Yeah.

- For real, baby?

- Are you impressed?

I sure am, honey.

I'm glad.

Hey, Famika, honey, come on, come

on, let's have a little show, huh?

Down, boy. It's my night off. Besides,

it might offend your lady friend.

Who? Sheila?

oh, Sheila wouldn't mind.

You wouldn't mind, would you?

of course you wouldn't, I knew you wouldn't.

We're gonna have a strip...

You'll never attract a stripper

that way. Here, let me show you.

And now, folks, may I present

the Queen of Burlesque:

Famika!

Famika's going to shake it

from the tips of her toes...

...to the tops of her tiny tassels.

Hey move it, honey. Move it for me.

Come on, Famika.

Fire one.

Come on, shake it, shake it.

Come on, Famika, move it.

Go, baby.

Now, that is not a boy.

Hey, go, Famika, go.

Attababy.

Go, baby, go.

Go, honey.

- Now, that's what I call art.

- I've seen better.

Well, evidently you've been

around a lot more than we have.

If anybody asks you, I went thataway.

Hey, how about that? I've got a

front row seat and I'm not even bald.

You gotta change your seat, buddy.

Your girl's getting lonesome.

Your girl's getting lonesome.

That's my girl. The one

over there catching cold.

Now, buddy, you're forgetting. I remember:

"Get her for me, buddy. I'll cut

through that like tissue paper. "

- I was only kidding.

- Yeah, well, I'm not.

So if you wanna be a buddy-buddy.

Change your seat, buddy.

Come on, honey, go.

Go.

Go.

Let's go, Famika, come on, honey.

Go, honey.

Hey, that's it, baby, come on, honey.

Go.

Hey, come on, honey.

Hey.

Easy, boy, you'll break our lease.

You're breaking my heart, honey.

Come on, take off a little more.

You're cute, honey, but the show is over.

Come on, honey, come over here.

Well, did you like the show?

You call that a show?

Well, yeah.

Come here.

Come here, honey.

Put on the record.

- Not bad for a girl without a motor.

- Yeah.

Hey, Marine.

Your mouth is open. It's watering too.

Yeah.

Want some advice from an old campaigner?

Deal the cards.

oh, you're kidding.

You want that?

Then turn around and deal.

She can have anyone she wants,

so she doesn't want them.

Show her someone she can't have.

Deal.

Come on.

She's coming.

- Ignore her.

- I'll try.

What's the matter? Too

much for you, baby boy?

- Whose play?

- Yours.

Nobody turns their back on Sheila.

Why don't you go back and

finish your minuet? I'm busy.

What a waste of good whiskey.

Why, you dirty...

Come on, Guy. Come on, Guy.

- Hey, go, Marine.

- Yeah, come on.

Hey, come on.

Come on, Guy. Pin her down.

Pin her down. Now you got her.

But...

She... She's...

Don't you think it's a little warm in here?

Yeah, well, I think it's

a little warm in here.

Two down and one to go.

Gin rummy?

Gin rummy?

- While those guys are...

- There's a time and place for everything.

You're right. We've got the

time and this must be the place.

The time, yes.

Gin rummy.

At least let's make it interesting.

What'll we play for?

I wish I was smart enough to cheat.

Don't worry.

I'm always unlucky.

Well, we're still dancing.

Don't you ever change the music?

Music. Great bunch of Marines. oh, boy.

Three gorgeous chicks and what do you got?

one guy's dancing, other

guy's playing gin rummy...

...and the other guy's

out there picking flowers.

oh, yes. Some picking, huh?

Hey, they got the right idea.

oh, They sure have. Well, let's go back.

Sono.

- Guess what?

- What?

Gin.

I told you I was unlucky.

Still leave the dirty work for

the slobs on the ground, huh?

You're hit?

What's the matter?

Who you feeling sorry

for, your Jap friends...

...or your buddies out

there getting slaughtered?

Look, boot, you're not the first one

that ever cracked up hitting the beach.

Damn it, we're all scared.

We need a satchel charge.

- Gotta get close enough to use it first.

- That gun's gotta be knocked out.

It's you and me, Lewis.

Cover us.

Right flank.

What are you doing here, Gabaldon?

Gabaldon!

Go.

Scratch one pillbox.

They understood you just fine, Marine.

Go. Go.

Hey, I'm...

- I'm sure sorry about what happened.

- Forget it.

You can fight on my team any day.

I... You know... Sounds crazy, but

I don't know what happened to me. I...

You had a problem to solve, that's all.

Yeah, but I'm not sure it's solved yet.

My folks were...

Well, it's kill or be killed, I guess, huh?

Kill or be killed, that's all you

have to remember. Just don't forget it.

Your turn to play spy, Gabby.

Looks like we're gonna

have a rough night tonight.

oh, Sono, why did I leave you in Honolulu?

oh, yeah.

Yeah, I see something.

Please, not while I'm eating.

Nellie Bly. Go ahead.

Pass the word to the skipper.

Here they come. Two tanks...

...about half the Japanese army.

Sir, two tanks moving

in on Hill 3-6-8.

Notify Black Jack Six. We're moving out.

We're moving out. on the double.

Black Jack?

Give me Black Jack Six.

All right, get the lead out of your pockets.

Man, they're really whooping it up.

Looks like they're loaded on sake.

Banzai attack for sure.

Yeah.

How we gonna see them?

Man, I tell you, the

Navy thinks of everything.

No sweat.

No worry.

Here come our boys.

Corpsman.

Corpsman!

That's all there is to it?

And everybody says a prayer it won't be him.

- Hi, Gabby.

- Hey, what do you say, buddy?

I thought I saw some movement

there about 10 minutes ago...

...but I'm so bleary-eyed

looking through these things.

Where did you get the fancy hat and popgun?

oh, I traded a samurai

sword for the pistol...

...and picked up the baseball

cap at a Seabee outfit.

I thought it'd help me pitch

grenades a little better.

This is Gabaldon. I've

been relieved by Martini.

Tell the admiral to put the

coffee on. I'm coming home.

This is Bird's Nest, this is Bird's Nest.
