The Famous Ferguson Case1932
Maizie Dickson:
[to Toni Martin] So, he wants to take you to New York, heh? Well, you sit down, listen to me! Suppose he does take you to Broadway. You'll have a swell time, for awhile, anyway. He's a good teacher. One of the very best! He'll teach you how to breathe nightclub air, how to drink straight rye without making a face, how to mix 18 different kinds of cocktails and take care of cryin' drunks! You learn how to let the men do the work for you and you find out that some of 'em won't do it for nothin'. He'll teach you how to steal pictures and to chisel on your expense account. He'll introduce you to all the hot spot hostesses and speakeasy junkies! You'll learn to stall all the bills for the clothes that look so swell before they had drinks spilled on them. And then one morning you'll wake up with a hangover six times bigger than the state of Texas! And you'll wonder if there's one good reason why you should go on living!
Bob Parks:
Well, then you take three drinks and you don't give a hoot.
Maizie Dickson:
For the first few months you'll be that cute little Martin kid. After that, you'll be known to the trade as good ol' Toni. From then on you're the tough twist from the Globe or the speakeasy sob sister. And when you add it all up it's got a minus sign in front of it and bares a close resemblance to Bob Parks - Broadway's buddy.
Bob Parks:
Well the nice thing is you have so many things to repent when you are older and time - grows - heavy.
