be a show.
It's gonna start
here in a minute.
Now, you'd better go pry
that big fella away from Zoe...
or there ain't
gonna be no show.
There's gonna be a show,
all right--
Mr. Universe on the violin.
- Hey, does he take requests?
- Will he take his shirt off?
Will he show us his tits?
What the hell's
the matter with you?
He could crush you
like an eggshell, Halsey.
You are sick!
Now, who do you think
you're messing with?
I am messing with
a pencil-neck midget, I believe.
Hit me if you're gonna hit me,
boy, come on.
Wait a minute!
This is between Craig and me!
Shut up!
Come on! Cool it!
- He's gone.
- Get outta here!
Yeah.
Listen, let's get us
a drink...
and then we'll have us
some damn entertainment.
Good to see you.
Joe, when you play, you ought to
be up here, up front...
and you fellas
just kind of...
That's it.
That looks good.
Why don't you let
us take care of this...
and you look after
Mary Tate?
OK.
Too much alcohol.
Mary Tate?
Who's that you're with?
Lester,
how's everything going?
Well, hello, suavey.
I was just telling Mary Tate
here how fine everything is.
Except those damn Jap tools.
They are killing us, Craig.
They're cheaper than ours...
but they do not have
the life in them.
They don't have
the tensile strength--
- Mary Tate, let's go.
- They got nothing.
- Joe's playing inside.
- Well, I'm playing outside.
Glad everything's fine, Lester.
Fine? It's a hell of
a lot better than fine.
Lester, let me see your lighter
again, honey, will you?
Which pocket's it in, honey?
Look at this. Read that.
"Zero defects."
Zero defects.
Well, this boy Lester here,
you know...
he ain't got a goddamned one.
And you know what else?
There's only five other men...
in the entire state
with that pin.
Just five, huh, Lester?
Well, it's for my factory,
not just for me.
That's just terrific, Lester.
Isn't that terrific?
All right! All right!
Thank you.
Thank you, indeed!
Thank me. Thank you.
Everybody having
a good time?
- Yes!
- Good, good!
What? I can't stand
that racket.
Turn to page 93
in the green hymnals.
Sing now!
You dance divinely.
Come on, everybody.
Let's hear it...
for the Muscle Beach
Symphony Orchestra!
Sorry, Tom.
Sorry, fellas. Sorry, guys.
We'll get together
again soon.
OK.
That's it for tonight, folks.
Thank you.
Hey, Craig!
Come out and--
Would you give this check
back to our hostess, please?
- You can't quit now.
- I'll tell you what...
Come on. Let's give him
a standing ovulation.
He deserves it.
Hey, hold on there
a minute now.
You wouldn't want to have
an argument now, would you?
Hey, it's done.
- It's done?
- It's done.
- What'd you do to him?
- Kiss off. What do you care?
Put your hand
down his pants?
You've been ugly with me
all night. All night!
I talked dirty to him.
He wanted to be sexy,
only he didn't know how.
These people...
Come on. We're going in
to see Joe.
I don't want
to go back in there.
All right, we can go home,
and you can talk dirty to me.
You bring me here.
You ignore me all night.
You act like somebody
I don't even know.
You go back in there
and watch Joe!
Lester, here's your lighter.
Stay out of this.
She's had too much to drink.
You stay out of it!
I have not!
You have been acting the fool
all night, Craig Blake.
I'm through with you.
You're the one who's overdone
the drinking, boy!
Zero defects.
- Yeah, zero defects--
- Bullshit!
- Do you know where Joe is?
- Take it easy, will you?
Go away.
Lady, do you know
where Joe went?
What? Your friend?
I'm afraid your friend left.
He wouldn't do that
without saying good-bye.
Come
on now. Calm down.
Where'd he go, damn it!
He left!
Craig, this young person
is disturbing my party.
Seriously disturbing my party.
I know.
We're leaving right now, Amy.
- We're going. OK.
- Thank you very much.
Just a little excitement.
Don't worry about it.
I've seen it happen...
