The Roaring Twenties1939

Panama:
You've been nice to me. You took a rap that I couldn't afford to take. It would have put me out of business. And I'd hate to see someone like you banging his head against a stone wall. Now the liquor business is gonna grow big and it's gonna grow fast. So get in line, buster. Hack drivers are a dime a dozen.

Eddie:
But you gotta know people.

Panama:
I know people.

Eddie:
It takes money.

Panama:
Oh, I can get it - if you start small.

Eddie:
Tell me, what's in this for you? What's your take?

Panama:
Nuthin'. That story about the guy in the cell was a sad one. I'd hate to have somebody tell me that about you.

Eddie:
Why?

Panama:
I once knew a soldier like you who went to France. He never came back. I never got over it. That's why.

Eddie:
Is that all of it?

Panama:
If you don't like that story, I'll try to think of another one.

Eddie:
That'll do for now.
