George Brenlin: Georgie

Quotes 

• Vincent Williams : Hello, Georgie.

  Georgie : Hello, Mr. Williams.

  Vincent Williams : Having a good time?

  Georgie : Swell. Thanks for inviting me. I didn't have anything decent to wear...

  Vincent Williams : Well, we'll have to see to it that you get some new clothes. Won't we?

  Georgie : Yes, Mr. Williams. Boy, it's sure funny, isn't it? If I had clothes and dough and a car like Mr. Coe, I'd be enjoying myself, having a swell time.

  Vincent Williams : [Vincent looks over to the bar, where he sees Manny. Manny is talking with a woman, who has her arms around him]  You're a very observant boy, Georgie. By the way, I thought you handled that camera store job very intelligently.

  Georgie : Yes, Mr. Williams.

  Vincent Williams : [Vincent puts his hand on Georgie's shoulder]  I think a gray herringbone tweed would look very nice on you.

  [Vincent walks away. Georgie smiles triumphantly] 

• Vincent Williams : What's the matter, Manny?

  Manny Coe : Nothing, Vincent.

  Vincent Williams : Why are you leaving?

  Manny Coe : [Surprised]  What?

  Vincent Williams : [Vincent takes him by the arm and leads him toward the door]  Oh, Manny. I'm sorry the Johnson job didn't turn out to be the success we anticipated.

  Manny Coe : I can't understand what happened. I planned every detail. I thought I hadn't overlooked anything.

  Vincent Williams : Perhaps you need a vacation.

  Manny Coe : Oh no. No, I'm sure I'll be all right by tomorrow night.

  Vincent Williams : Get a good night's sleep.

  Manny Coe : Thank you, Vincent. Good night.

  [He walks toward the door, where he sees Georgie] 

  Georgie : Leaving, Mr. Coe?

  [Georgie grins] 

  Manny Coe : [Looking disgusted]  Yeah.

• Georgie : [Georgie points a gun at Manny]  Hello, Manny. Mr. Williams sent me.
