THEY KNEW WHAT THEY WANTED

Joe

[Obeying]: Say! Them’s what I call regular earrings!

Tony

You bet your life! He’s cost four hundra dollar’!

Joe

Are them real diamonds?

Tony

[Nodding]: I guess Amy like ’em pretty good, eh?

Joe

She’ll be crazy about ’em. You’re a pretty wise old wop, Tony, ain’t you? [He hands the box back to Tony, who laughs delightedly. Joe looks at him for a moment then goes to door and calls out:] Amy!

Tony

Eh, Joe!

Joe

You’re goin’ to make the presentation right away now. That’ll settle your worries for you. . . . Amy, come here! Tony wants to see you!

Tony

You think is good time now?
