Kid Galahad

Ralphie:
Hello, Peaches. You know you're a real lucky girl. You're gonna find me available for the whole season at no extra charge.

Lew Nyack:
Hey Walter! In case you want to duck once in a while, it ain't against the rules!

Dolly Fletcher:
This sort of thing is legal?

Willy Grogan:
You don't need a license to be stupid. I'll lay you 3-to-1 the kid don't last a round.

Willy Grogan:
Make sure this pigeon don't get away.

Walter Gulick:
Sorry, Mr. Grogan. It wouldn't have happened but he don't know how to behave himself with a lady.

Dolly Fletcher:
Thanks, Galahad.

Willy Grogan:
Galahad was what they call a knight of the round table, Howie. He was also something of a square. I can't state this as a positive fact, but he probably died very young.

Maynard:
What's the matter?

Dolly Fletcher:
Nothing. It's love in bloom.

Maynard:
Goodbye. I've watched it bloom before.

Willy Grogan:
Look, Dolly... this may seem funny to you but... the kid doesn't know about us.

Dolly Fletcher:
I gathered that much. I can even quote you. "Rose, this is Miss What's-her-name. She just happened to drop by this morning." Were you so scared, you couldn't even remember my name?

Willy Grogan:
Dolly...

Dolly Fletcher:
What is there to know about us anyway? Am I a lady barber or something? They've got sex in the Bronx, too, so what's the mystery?

Willy Grogan:
I'm only trying to tell you, she's only a baby... a protected baby.

Dolly Fletcher:
Oh come off it! Babies aren't built like that. And besides... if you're such a blue-nosed puritan about your sister... then - - just forget it.

Willy Grogan:
I just didn't know she was coming up here, understand? I-I-I just wasn't prepared.

Dolly Fletcher:
I know. You're not prepared for a lot of things. I'm beginning to get the idea.

Lew Nyack:
What did you think when you read all that phony publicity about yourself?

Walter Gulick:
You mean about the 17 knockouts?

Lew Nyack:
Yeah.

Walter Gulick:
At first I kinda felt sorry for Willy.

Lew Nyack:
Sorry for him?

Walter Gulick:
He's not a bad guy, Lew. Maybe he's got reason for being a liar. It'd be nice if we can help him out.

Lew Nyack:
Help HIM out? Well how about YOU?

Lew Nyack:
Look at that! Suppose you step out there in that ring and Ezzard Bailey separates you from what little brains you got left? Huh?

Walter Gulick:
Yeah, I've been thinking about that too.

Dolly Fletcher:
He should be arrested.

Rose Grogan:
Who?

Dolly Fletcher:
Your brother, naturally. He's responsible for this.

Rose Grogan:
What do you do when you feel like this?

Walter Gulick:
People usually get married, I understand. It's about the best and the safest thing to do.

Walter Gulick:
Don't push me, Willy. I'm a grease monkey that won't slide so easily!

Willy Grogan:
Shut up, I said!

Walter Gulick:
You can't yell loud enough to make me shut up! Till I tell you about what I think of the fight game. I think it stinks! And when I get out of it what I want, I'm quitting! I'm through! No, I'm not marrying Rose because she's your sister, Willy. But in spite of it.

Walter Gulick:
I'm waiting, Willy. I'm waiting.

Dolly Fletcher:
Stop it! What's the matter with you anyway?

Willy Grogan:
What's the matter with me? This cream-headed clown wants to marry my sister, that's what's the matter with me.

Dolly Fletcher:
Well? At least he's not asking her to hang around for 3 or 4 years, Willy.

Otto Danzig:
Here's $500 to help you get lost. They'll be somebody else in Galahad's corner. Someone who'll know what to do. Someone who'll make sure that he bleeds. That'll open up the cuts instead of closing them. Any bright ideas?

Lew Nyack:
Yeah, I got a bright idea. It's what you can do with this $500.
