They convince Susan she has an opportunity to fulfill all her dreams, and the trio heads for Palm Beach. Susan meets John Wheeler who says he is shopping for a sailboat.

No more bets.

Win 15.

It can not be, it can not be.

Win 11.

I knew it! Species of traitor...

And t, t...

You know, it's very clear...

that you are not up to the task.

I should have expected it. You

are a womb, you have no heart.

Do not be impertinent.

It's for your good.

Number 3.

, Pralo! You have to hear me.

You are the only human here.

You're stealing his life,

11 years of deprivation...

saving cents, without living.

, He did not do anything to you!

How can you do this to him?

How can you do it to me?

March when your presence...

He gave me everything he wanted.

Warren, you can find another one.

When Lillian left, you found me.

There are many Lindas

in other stores.

Unfortunately, Tod Fenwick

loves you and not another.

You can be nice if you want.

You do not want to do this.

You are bitter.

Say it, you do not need it.

You're looking for big money.

For you, 15,000 is just what...

- Food for chickens.

- Clear.

And if I give it back, what?

You will go fast with him.

There is the problem.

It takes my goose that

lays the golden eggs.

Okay, I lost everything.

We do not need it, we

will leave without money.

What will you say when you discover

that you stole your savings?

And it will look like

you did it twice.

You will not tell him. You do

not dare, you will not risk it.

What risk? I was innocent.

I'll blame you all, I

know how to do it.

I will not believe you.

Believe the croupier

that, let's say...

You bribed to

sabotage your system.

I will deny it.

A poor accountant, who has

lost 30,000 dollars...

He will not listen to the woman

who runs to him in cold blood.

, You will not believe it!,

You will not believe it!

, Return your money!

With pleasure. I'll be happy to

give you your little boat...

in exchange for my house.

?lt's not fair? Do I ask too much?

No exit. We want to help you.

He wants a ship.

A dream fool, unrealizable.

That's what he wants

and we give it to him.

You're very smart, Warren.

You have closed all exits.

I wanted one thing more

than nothing in the world.

Maybe he was stupid and maybe

it was unrealizable...

but I took it off and

I'll give it back.

, Give him your money!

Harry, what about that?

Say it to Fred.

Beautiful...

I hate to get hard, but if you

marry Fenwick on Sunday...

Wheeler will have to

leave today without you.

A small note, short

and direct...

It will perhaps be the

quickest and the simplest.

Place your bets.

You can take what's left, I do

not know what happened to me.

No more bets.

Win the 8.

I knew it would work.

"I was foolish to think

that it could work."

At the beginning I expected it...

but there are barriers

that are insurmountable.

"We live in different worlds."

Yes, short and direct.

This will take him out of the way.

Win the 6.

Win 10.

- How much do you do, professor?

- Fair 16,000.

Follow, you will win everything.

I have no time.

Do you give me 16 browns?

Okay, but I know what I would do.

35 times a thousand make another 35,000.

Go Go.

Well, once more.

No more bets.

Win 5.

Ok, I needed it 15.

I will tell you a secret.

I have discovered something.

My system is not infallible.

In addition I have to catch an airplane.

Calling Mr. Wheeler.

Flight 7. Your plane waits.

From Miss Worthington.

Calling Mr. Wheeler.

Your plane waits.

Did he give it to him?

S . Is there a message?

Is there a message?

No, no message.

, Calling Mr. Wheeler!

Your plane waits.

,Mr. Wheeler!, Mr. Wheeler!

,Mr. Wheeler, it's just a minute!

Only one minute. Where is it going?

,I waited!

I'm breathless.

At last I found him, I looked for him.

?What are you talking about?

I was going to Jersey City, she escaped

but I found it.

The plane is going to take off.

?Does not hear me? Are you deaf?

I found the bandits.

The plane can not wait.

Adi s... I found them?

Do you know this guy?

, Captain Beasley!

Yes, it's him.

, Nothing of Capitn! He is the boss.

Do you know this pumpkin?

Yes, she is the mother

of Miss Worthington.

Mother, nanay!

He is the buddy of the fat man.

?Sidekick? It's not possible.

I know Mrs. Worthington.

Ah, yes? Here comes the best.

It's Linda.

, Linda nothing!

Look, his last name is Miller.

Susie Miller.

Susie? Is not wrong.

No, it's your doll.

They were all in the garlic.

?She too?

What if he was? It was the bait.

And you have been another

of his dead ducks.

I don't believe it.

Two hours ago I almost

caught her, but she escaped.

?Two hours ago?

"We live in different worlds."

It was a well-assembled number.

And there were dozens before:

Mary, Dolores...

Is not she upper class?

He comes from Brooklyn, he

went to public school n. 18.

Suspended in math...

He left the school, he

went to sell belts.

It was picked up by these two

bandits in the spring...

Wait, what do I do? Call

the police, stop someone.

- Where are you?

- Together, surely.

She will warn you. That casino

is your refuge. Come on.

Do not come. I will do it my way.

Be careful, they are dangerous.

Maybe they'll kill him or something.

I'm not afraid of them.

The plane takes off

and Mr. Wheeler walks away.

Drink for the end of the

fight and for Sunday.

Baby. You will not wake up

until you cross the threshold.

Threshold for all of us.

,Hands up!

Nothing to look for guns.

A false move and I

send you to heaven.

We meet again, Captain Beasley.

I've been waiting for this for a long time.

It must be an error, friend.

,Hands up!

Hello mother.

He did not accept me, huh?

, Quiet! The story is over.

I may seem foolish, but I know how

to defend myself. We will play all.

You have taken my hair, okay.

But you leave it, huh?

Get behind me.

Get behind me!

Open the door.

If you do not want them,

you do not follow us.

,Oh my God! Have you ever

seen something so shabby?

So the pill, huh?

And the others?

They are yours. You are inside.

Watch it well.

It is very elusive.

So. This will hold her back.

Let it not escape.

What will you do?

Marry you, of course.

I'm as guilty as them.

I know, you did not know

what you were doing.

Come on, the last plane is going.

We do not have the key.

What do we want it for?

Sorry, I'm an agent.
