and bring it to New York.

- That's great.

- Say, step on it, will you?

- I've got a matinee.

- Sure.

I want two choruses...

...and you follow us, not us you.

- Come on, Flo.

Say, listen. There's gonna be no part

in your show for that dame, get me?

Of course not, honey.

It's kind of rough yet, but don't

you say it's pretty good for an opening?

You know, if you don't hurry,

you're gonna miss that train.

- Oh, the train.

- Sure, the train.

Oh, Hank. Hank, can I help you?

Yes, you could hold my coat for me.

I forgot all about the thing.

Oh, Hank.

That's all right, Queenie.

- Goodbye, Eddie.

- Goodbye, Hank.

Oh, you'll write to me soon, won't you?

Yeah, I'll write you from Peoria.

Now, where's my hat? Where's my hat?

- Oh, where's my hat!

- Here's your hat.

Here. Here. Here's your valise.

- All right. Bring it, Uncle Jed. Come on.

- It's pretty heavy.

- Goodbye, Hank.

- Goodbye, Hank.

- Goodbye, Hank.

- Don't forget to write. Goodbye.

Oh, don't cry, dear.

Hank won't be gone long.

The season will be over before you

know it, and she'll be back here with us.

It ain't that, honey.

But it seems like Hank

ain't never had a real break.

And I guess I haven't done much

to make her any happier.

I wouldn't feel that way about it, dear.

Hank'll be much happier back on the road.

Why, she couldn't give it up.

It's her life.

She couldn't live without it.

And now that she knows

you're taken care of...

Don't cry, honey.

People can't help falling in love.

It comes to you no matter what you do.

And I love you, dear.

Oh, and I love you, Eddie.

You were just meant for me.

Opening in Peoria.

Four shows a day.

Zanny said he'd make me

a star in six months.

Say, listen, it's better to star in...

In Oshkosh than to starve on Broadway.

That's a bunk.

Say, now you listen to me,

stupid. I'll handle things.

Yes, and I'll have you back on Broadway

and in the Palace in less than six months.

- No fooling?

- Why, it's cream in the can, baby.

Sure, it's...

It's... It's in the can.
