You got plans for after your shift?

Not this time no.

I know it sounds silly, you being a bartender and all, but do you wanna get a drink together? Some place other than here, I mean.

It would be great. I can't really drink while I'm on the clock.

Okay. I'll come find you when you're getting ready to clock out.

Let's go someplace without a lot of glitz and flashing lights. I need a break from the over-stimulation.

Hey, do you think that new showgirl would join us? I really should get to know her better.

I hope our schedules will allow for it. I know she's new and probably busy. But I can still hope, right?

No one can take that away from us.

Well you better get that drink delivered.

I'm not worried about it. It's not like the guest is a big spender, a high-roller.

But you're probably right. See you later tonight.

Is there a problem? Are you going to answer that?

Waves a hand in the direction of the switchboard

The boss doesn't like commies. I thought I'd save him him the trouble of having to talk to one.

It's the red phone, obviously, and that can only mean one thing- someone has misplaced their red phone.

The hotel isn't in the diplomacy business.

How right you are. Carry on.

Gangster in a white sports coat

Staten Island

A man in a navy blue suit walks in looking around at everyone. He slowly approaches the bar and sits down.

"A glass of beer please."

"Is that so?"

He takes a swig and sweat off his forehead.

"Listen I'm here investigating on the behalf of the mob. What do you know about this so-called watcher fellow?"

You're with the mob, never excepted that.

Now the watcher who now? I never heard of him, or maybe I have. There was some talk about a missing girl. Now that I think about it the guy went missing too...

"There's two more now? Oh great this makes everything a bit worse now."

He takes another sip.

"Now since we come here often, any idea who it might be? We know for a fact that it is one of our boys that are doing all this."

"That is a good idea."

He finishes his drink and pays for it before getting up and following the bartender.

"I'm really sorry to bother you with this, I know you left and all when you found out the car shop...."

Dont mention the shop.

*Marty clocks out and leads the man to the valet parking giving him a twenty.*

Now listen it's just probably some mobster that is low in the chain try to stir up trouble. Now get out of here and dont come back unless it is serious.
