he swung at me and missed.

I never miss.

Yes, you missed me. Then...

Hey! I can't hit you, huh?

No.

You see what I mean?

There.

You see, Mr. Sloan?

That's point number one.

He swung at me and missed. See?

But I never miss!

Hey.

Oh, no.

That's not the way to do it...

Look, this is the way.

See? Like that?

Uh...

Cut this nonsense.

Will you kindly tell me

how I got knocked...

Mr. Sloan,

that's exactly what happened!

Why, what a story!

Twice in one day!

He gave him

another demonstration.

Wait a minute.

I can explain everything.

He can explain better.

Yeah, but I didn't do it.

It was an accident.

- What an accident!

- He's right. I did it!

How much did Gabby give you

to say that?

Where's that...

Give me that, you press rat!

Give me that!

Get out of here, you buzzards!

Get out of here, you buzzards!

Get out of here!

- Say something.

- Uhh.

OK. He'll be all right, doctor.

It's the shock, that's all.

What he really needs is sleep.

This'll fix him up. Now,

give him a spoonful of that...

and a glass of water.

Someone should...

Oh, I'll watch him, doctor.

You remember,

I looked after him...

the time he got his face

caught in a cash register.

Yes. Ha ha.

Well, good night, doctor.

Good night.

Good night, gentlemen.

Good night.

Come on, doc.

Get going, will you? Get going.

- Good night.

- Good night.

Good night.

I got it. I got it!

What'd the doctor say it was?

Get Sullivan, come on.

Get Sullivan.

I got it. I tell ya I got it.

It's an angle,

and what an angle!

Come on, get Sullivan,

bring him up here.

Bring him up here!

Bring him right up here!

That does it! That re...

Oh, dear.

Oh. Heh.

Yeah. OK.

Want your sugar? Huh?

Do you?

Well, heh...

how do I know

you love me? Hmm?

How do I know you love me?

Oh? Ohh, yes.

Now, wait a minute.

Wait, now. Wait, now.

Wait, now. Wait, now.

Tell me you love me.

That's it. Mmm. Here.

Oh. I got some more.

Wait a minute.

I got some more. Look.

All right, guess which?

Hey, you.

The boss wants to see you.

You're comin' with me.

No, sir. I've got work to do.

Come on!

Anyway, I'm not going

up there again... anyway.

What's that?

Once bitten, twice shy.

Huh? Give me that once again.

I don't chew my cabbage twice.

So you're startin'

that again, huh?

Hey!

Two against one, huh?

I'll show you.

Listen, you...

Iooky here...

I'm delivering grade-A milk,

for better babies. You under...

Gabby won't take no

for an answer!

You better cut it out now!

You...

you can get in trouble

for this, you know!

Ow!

You let me go, now!

Come on, not another

word out of you!

You're coming with me!

Look out. I got a gun.

A gat, huh?

Come on, come on!

He's a... he's a dangerous

character, officer!

He's a menace to humanity!

Wait a minute, officer!

This... this is a cinch

to explain.

Yeah, I know.

I'm a witness. Come on.

Hey, wait a minute!

I can get out of this!

Uh-huh.

If that guy can fight a lick...

we'll pack the Garden,

or maybe the Polo Grounds.

Or a telephone booth.

How about a swig

of this sleeping medicine?

He's a natural.

We build him a rep...

and he'll be the biggest

drawing card since Dempsey.

First, he's gotta knock out

a few setups.

Starting with you?

You got the idea.

He knocks over six setups...

and then he meets you

at the Polo Grounds.

And we have a new champion.

That's Spider in the lobby.

We're all in glory!

Hello, Spider.

You got him in the lobby?

Well, bring him. What?

You're what?!

He's in jail!

Oh, my...

It's all my fault

for trusting a lug like that.

I should've had more sense.

I should've sent

somebody with brains.

- Yeah. Yeah.

- Yeah.

You. Yeah, why don't you go?

- Yeah. Yeah.

- That's right.

Where will I find him?

You stop the first

milk wagon you come to...

and if you're still on your

feet, you say to yourself...

"That's not him."

Yeah. Thanks for the tip.

This program

is coming to you...

through the courtesy

of Amalgamated Gas.

Will you stop

ringing my doorbell?

Did somebody tell you

it was halloween?

I tell you,

I gotta see your brother.

And I told you

my brother isn't here.

And I don't believe you.

Will you believe me

when I tell you...

I'm going to get some sleep?

No.

What's the idea?

Oh, I'm sorry.

I didn't know it was your bell.

You ought to be

ashamed of yourself...

a big fella like you...

goin' around,

ringing people's doorbells.

I said I was sorry.

What more can I say?

It's not the idea.

It's the principle of the thing.

My wife's been talkin'

for two hours.

She finally went to sleep.

You come along and wake her up.

Well, what am I supposed

to do about that?

You're supposed to beat it

before I get sore.

- Oh, gettin' tough, huh?

- Just as tough as you are.

Now, wait a minute, buddy.

My business

is knocking out people.

- Is that so?

- Yeah.

And for two cents,

I'll let you have one right on...

Hey. I'm in business myself.

Come on, buddy.

Let's go.

Hello, Speed?

You got him in the lobby?

Where are you?

Ohh! What have I done

to deserve this?!

Every time I pick up this phone,

I get bad news!

Well, I'll put

a stop to that.

That's two of them in jail!

Or maybe three.

That's bad.

That's no good, you know.

That's a misdemeanor.

Cops are coming up.

What's my angle?

What's my out?

Why don't you tell them

when you were a little boy...

you were kind of puny.

That ought to do it.

Yeah.

Agnes.

What's the matter? Get up.

Oh, my.

Oh, no. That can't...

that can't be right.

Oh. Agnes.

Ohh.

Help!

Help! My horse!

Help!

Help!

Hello?

Hello? Hello? Hello.

May I use your telephone?

Yes, I need a doctor.

- Are you hurt?

- No, no, no.

I'm all right, thank you. Hello?

Hello?!

Hello?

- Oh. Hello? Yes, look...

- Why did you dial here?

Just one moment.

Will you hold the phone?

I'm talking to someone.

Yes, here's what I want.

I need a...

Quit bothering me

at this time of night.

I'm talking over here to...

Yes, I'm trying to explain...

No, I'm talking

to the other fellow.

One sec... hello?

Well, uh...

Hello, here's what...

hello?!

Hello?! Hello?!

Hello! Hello up there!

Go on, get!

Hey, cut that noise out

down there.

What's the matter with you?

Hey, come on! Beat it!

I want to go to sleep!

I've got to have a telephone!

- A telephone!

- Phone?

Yes!

Hello?

Uh... hello!

You can use my phone.

- Oh.

- 313. Third floor.

Thank you! Thank you very much!

Yes!

Come in.

- The phone's over there.

- Thank you.

- This is sure nice of you.

- That's all right.

Hello? Hello? Is this Kinney?

This is Burleigh.

Something's happened to Agnes.

Yeah. She's lying in the gutter.

Huh? She won't get up!

Yeah, her tongue's

hanging out a foot!

Thirsty? Oh, she couldn't be.

She's had plenty to drink.

What she's got's a bellyache.

Yeah, you'd better

get her an ambulance.

Uh, this is

56, Lotus Apartments.

Yes.

Well, you'd better

bring the lady up here or...

Oh, she's not a lady.
