and tomorrow I will take you

- to get your sister.

- I want more money.

What?

I want more money.

I'm not opposed to that.

I will give you... fifty cents

cents of every dollar we make. Half.

Is that agreeable?

I don't trust you.

Ewa, come on. I wouldn't come out

here for anyone else but you.

No, I don't trust you.

But if you don't give me my money,

then I will tell the police that

you hid money from them.

- You're going to tell the police, yeah?

- Yes.

I'd rather you get the cut

than the cops anyway.

All right.

So get your things.

Let's go.

Come on.

You are so beautiful.

Thank you for this.

You should wear a lot

of clothing.

February is cold winter.

If you catch a cold,

I won't see you.

Yeah.

I will stay warm, I promise.

I gave the a... the money to Bruno.

This is just a little extra...

for your sister.

Thank you.

I hope she gets better soon.

Goodbye.

Good morning.

Good morning. Do you

have my money, for last night?

Well, some of the ladies and I are going

up to Rhinebeck again this weekend.

I'd like it if you'd join us

this time.

You might have fun.

Thank you for the money.

Well, you think about it.

Bruno!

You bring Orlando back?

So what?

- You lied to me?

- He needs the work.

You remember what

happened last time.

- When he's on, he brings in the customers so good.

- Bullshit.

The girls bring in the customers.

- I bring in the customers.

- Shut your mouth down and listen to me.

You forget who is the boss here.

Yes, ma'am.

He stays.

Let's go.

Bruno!

Emil.

Hey. Well, well, well.

- It's nice to see family. How are you?

- Doing all right.

Yeah. I guess you heard

the took me back at Ellis Island.

Congratulations.

I'm doing really good

over there, too.

And I can't tell you how excited I am

to be working with you again tonight.

It's gonna to be just like old times.

Well. That's what I'm

worried about.

No, no, no. I won't let you down.

Well, that means no more

gambling, and no more drinking.

Absolutely. I'm just

glad for this opportunity.

And I just wanna to thank you.

- All right.

- Thank you, sir.

I sincerely hope so.

Hey, hi.

This is my show.

So, as long as you're on time,

professional.

I don't foresee us having a problem.

Of course, of course.

I know her.

- Hey, don't I know you from Ellis Island?

- Good luck tonight.

Thank you, thank you.

And to the band, thank you.

Our mini orchestra.

Now in honor of my

return to the Bandit's Roost,

I will perform my most famous

mystification.

Which I have done for Crown Princes,

and heads of state,

all over the world.

This will be an act of mind reading.

I will know your dreams.

Look, we already sold

all the liquor.

Yeah, I can tell from the crowd.

But it doesn't mean they like him.

Before I get started, I need to

find a suitable subject

from the audience.

Who will it be?

Well, as much as I find

all you men appealing.

I think I've found a more

suitable subject back here.

- Please come with me.

- No, no, no.

The "Mind Reading."

So, what is your name young lady?

Ewa.

That's Lady Liberty.

She goes dog fashion for two dollars.

You can sit on my torch,

Lady Liberty.

Ewa. And were are you

from, Ewa?

From Katowice

So, what do you want here,

in America?

I want to be happy.

To be happy.

I made you happy last

night, you cheap whore!

She's Bruno's best!

Don't listen to anything they say,

okay? They're just drunk.

Hey Bruno! I'll give you

a dollar for the b*tch.

Get down here you whore!

I'll f*** you, and then

I'll cut your tits off!

Sir, you shut your mouth!

Or I'll punch another hole in your face!

Okay, we'll get you off.

Ladies and gentlemen, I'll be right

back for my greatest illusion,

"The Hindu Coffin" in a

few moments.

But first the sensual

stylings of Bruno and his doves.

Are you all right?

Bruno, I apologize. I'm sorry.

You embarrass her?

To get at me?

- What are you taking about?

- You know exactly what you did!

Stay away from my girls!

Hey, at least I warmed

them up for you.

And that was Emil the magician,

forgive me,

"Orlando the Magician."

I didn't know he was

supposed to make himself disappear.

Ewa.

Hey, are you all right?

You disgrace me.

What's that?

You make fun of me.

No, no. I wasn't making fun of you.

It was just the act.

Miss Egypt! All the mysteries

of the great pyramids will be

revealed before your very eyes!

All right, all right!

This modern day Cleopatra.

Lady Liberty!

Lady Liberty

welcomes you with open arms.

Where the f*** is Lady Liberty?

Destroying our pace

again, because that's always a...

Don't touch her!

What is your problem?

Bruno, what's wrong with you?

Why are you so angry?

Keep away from her!

Oh my God!

- It's Bruno, he's gone mad!

- Stop it! Stop it!

I told you!

Where do you think you

are going, b*tch?

What have you done?

- Me? What are you talking about?

- I talk to you!

You don't know what you're talking about.

- F*** you, Rosie!

- Next time I fire you!

You fire me? I quit! I quit!

- Go! Go! Go! Leave us!

- You don't know what you're doing.

- Yes I do! We don't need her!

- I'm sorry! I'm sorry!

- I can't take it any more. He's crazy!

- Yeah! When I think of you Rosie.

You lost us this place?

- We'll find someplace else.

- This is how we make money.

What are you guys doing?

Let's move! Move!

Where are we going? It's winter!

I don't know, we'll go uptown

I need that money!

You lose your temper.

You fight this man. For what?

You're so stupid!

I'm stupid? Did you see what

happened out there?

He insulted you!

And I'm the one trying to

protect you from him!

All right, enough. How are we going to

fit this in the trunk?

Are you thinking?

I got to think of everything?

I come up with the routines.

I'm moving everything! Let's go.

Out, out, out, out.

Before the cops come!

Where do we go?

Out!

After last night, even this

think should be more hospitable.

Are you kidding?

What is this?

See through there?

It's is the men's boarding houses.

It's nothing but men, everywhere.

And I got a new material

to match the costumes.

These men, have nothing.

It's just temporary,

I'll find us a place.

Good morning, gentlemen.

All right, sit here.

When I point to you, blankets off,

get up, walk around.

You know what to do. Okay?

Gentlemen, today is

your lucky day.

May I direct your attention

to the daughters of the finest

families in New York society.

I give you the Astor

family's wayward little girl.

Her father told her to

go get a job.

Or will it be the child of

Mister Frick?

She was brought here directly

by her chauffeur,

in the lap of luxury.

J.P. Morgan's prized...

progeny... she grew up with servants

and now she will serve you.

Walk around, go up,

show yourself.

Please speak directly to me.

Do not touch the ladies.

Ma'am, I'd like you to show me

around the neighborhood, if you would.

You talk to him.

How old are you?

I'm fifteen.

You have no sickness?
