- I'll be your best man!

- You're through being best man, Fats.

My car awaits, Mr. Murdock.

[Groans]

- [Groans]

- Fats! Inside, quick!

- I'll kill him! I'll kill him!

- Inside!

- [Gunshots]

- Onstage, Fats! You'll be safe there.

Hey! How am I gonna

be safe out there?

Give me your hat and coat, huh?

Here. He won't take a chance bumping

you off in front of a thousand witnesses.

Get your coat on, you big ham.

- One of the reasons you came here tonight...

was to hear Miss JerriJordan

and Ray Anthony do their hit record.

- Is that right?

- [All] Right!

And now, so that you won't be disappointed,

here is Marty "Fats" Murdock...

singing his own composition,

"Rock Around the Rock Pile"!

Go on.

You're finally in the spotlight.

Come on.

A big hand for Fats.

[Cheering]

Don't be afraid.

I'm calling the cops.

Thank you.

I thought if I was real awful

I'd get out of owing him.

Well, that's the story,

ladies and gentlemen.

A story about music and...

Iove.

A story about music and love.

And marriage.

And babysitters.

- Sing for us, Uncle Fats.

- Sing, Uncle Fats.

Oh. I don't know.

Ask my agent.

Let them buy your records.

So long, everybody.

Don't listen to him, folks.

I'll see you outside

in the lobby when you leave.

I'll sing anything you want.

I'm a jim-dandy singer.
