crowd tonight,
you know?
Yeah.
There's a nice-looking one
over there
with the black dress
and the beads on,
but she's dancing now.
There's a nice-looking short
one for you down there.
Where?
That little one down there.
Oh, yeah.
What do you say?
Wanna ask 'em?
I'll take the one with
the flowers on her dress.
I think this music's
a little fast.
Just a minute.
Yeah, I think it's all right.
They still over there?
What do you say?
You want to dance?
Excuse me, would you care to dance?
I don't feel like
dancing just yet.
Sure.
Clara, have you decided
about tomorrow afternoon?
You know I go to the movies
with papa on sunday.
But you could have
a lot of fun.
Herb, she isn't
especially attractive,
but she has a good deal of charm.
She's really a nice girl.
She's all right, Andy.
It's just I get one saturday
night off every 3 weeks.
I was expecting
something better.
Do you like him, Clara
yes. He seems very nice.
Millie's been after me to fix her up-
all right.
I'm having a fair time.
I get one saturday night
off in 3 weeks.
I wanted to wind up
with something tonight.
So I'm sorry.
I came up with-
what's her name?
Herbie, have you
ever been here before?
Hey!
Herbie! What
are you doing here?
I come up to dance.
What do you think?
You here with somebody?
With another girl.
Where are you going now?
To get some cigarettes
from my coat.
I'll see you around.
Yeah, I'll see you.
Oh, that's a girl
I used to know.
Boy, it's sure
packed in here, huh?
Some of these kids
are awfully young.
Aren't you afraid you'll
run into your students?
I wouldn't think so.
I teach in brooklyn.
You've been here before, Clara?
Yes, twice.
You want to get a table,
or you want to start dancing?
Well, Herb?
Herb!
Want to grab a table,
have a drink first?
You people go grab a table.
I'll be back in a minute.
Come on.
We'll grab a table.
You here stag or with a girl?
You say something?
You here stag or with a girl?
Oh, I'm stag.
I got stuck on a
blind date with a dog,
and I just met a girl
I used to know,
and I'm wondering how
to lose the girl I'm with.
I need somebody
to take her home.
I'll pay you 5 bucks if
you take her home for me.
What?
I'll introduce you
as an army buddy of mine,
and then I'll cut out.
I've got this other girl
waitin' for me at the hat check.
I'll pay you 5 bucks.
Are you kidding?
No, I'm not kidding.
You just can't walk off
on a girl like that.
In that case, as long as
she's going home alone,
give me the 5 bucks back.
You paid me the 5 bucks.
The 5 bucks is mine.
Excuse me, miss.
Would you care to dance?
Miss?
You come up here often?
Twice before.
Once I came up
with a friend of mine,
and once alone.
The last time...
do you see that
girl sitting over there
in the gray dress?
Yeah.
The last time I was here,
that's where I sat
I sat there for
an hour and a half
without moving a muscle.
Now and then some fellow
would come up to me
and then change his mind.
I'll never forget sitting
there for an hour and a half
with my hands in my lap.
Then I began to cry.
I had to get up and go home.
I've begun to cry a lot lately.
I cry a lot, too.
I'm a big crier.
This is very recent with me-
bursting into tears
at the slightest thing.
I cry all the time,
any little thing.
My brothers,
my brothers-in-law
always tell me what a
good-hearted guy I am.
You don't get that by accident.
You get kicked around long enough,
you get to be a professor of pain.
I know exactly how you feel.
I also want you to know
I'm really enjoying myself.
You see, you're not such
a dog as you think you are.
I'm having a very good time, too.
So there you are.
I guess I'm not such
a dog as I think I am.
You're a very nice guy.
I don't know why some girl
hasn't grabbed you off long ago.
I don't know either.
I think I'm a nice guy
I also think I'm smart,
in my own way.
Excuse me.
You know, 2 people get married,
and
