One Way Passage

[last lines]

Bartender #1:
I'll be glad when this thing's over.

Bartender #2:
You telling me. These holidays are dynamite.

Bartender #1:
[sound of breaking glass] Hey lookout for them glasses with your elbows.

Bartender #2:
I never touched any glasses. [the camera pans to two broken glass stems on the bar which vanish. Fade out]

[first lines]

Hong Kong Bartender:
[mixing a very complex drink] I haven't made one of these since the fourth of July. I was making one when the quake hit Frisco. Believe me friend, I wouldn't go to all this trouble for any of these foreigners. Uh, uh, gotta wait a minute to let the oil sink in. There you are partner, you can tell your grandchildren about that one.

Dan:
[before Dan can take a sip, the contents of the glass are knocked out of his hand by Joan backing into him] Say what in the name of...

Joan:
Why... I'm so sorry.

Dan:
I'm so glad.

Joan:
Such a beautiful drink too.

Dan:
Yes, paradise cocktail. Seem to be a few drops left.

Joan:
[prophetically] Always the most precious, the last few drops. That's luck.

Dan:
Yes, my name is Dan.

Joan:
Mine's Joan.

Dan:
Hello Joan.

Joan:
Hello Dan.

Dan:
May we, errr, drink to our meeting?

Joan:
We should. Here's... here's hail and farewell.

Dan:
Well that seems a bit ruthless?

Dan:
Let's say [hears toast from the German bar] auf wiedersehen

Joan:
Auf wiedersehen [Dan smashes his glass on the bar; Joan does likewise]

Skippy:
Quick, bartender! Gimme a drink! Quick, before the fight begins!

Bartender #2:
Yes, sir! Here you are, sir.

[the bartender pours a drink. Skippy downs it, while looking over his shoulder frantically]

Skippy:
Good, gimme another one! Quick, before the fight begins!

[the bartender pours another drink. Skippy downs it quickly]

Bartender #2:
Wait a minute! Wait a minute! What fight?

Skippy:
The fight between you and me. I can't pay for these drinks! [He stumbles away, laughing drunkenly]

Betty:
I've been busy.

Skippy:
Oh sure, with that copper! You know, I think you're falling for him.

Betty:
He's not such a bad guy.

Skippy:
Oh sure, copper-lover! Falling for the law. The fox, falling in love with the hounds. I'm ashamed of you. I tell you, that guys no good.

Betty:
Now, wait a minute. His racket's on the other side of the fence but he's playing it on the up-and-up. He's 100% copper just the same as you're 100% thief. And you know yourself, 100% puts you at the head of the class.

Joan:
Remember our first?

Dan:
We thought it was our last. You never can tell.
