We've been watchin for three days and three nights! The colored guy has to dress him, shave him, feed him, put him to bed, carry him to the toilet, brush his teeth. If that's an act, then I'm Soupy Sales.
Chester Purkey:
Listen. I once shadowed a guy who was suin the Yellow Cab Company. Some kind of collision. Claimed he was paralyzed. For six weeks, we were watchin him and nothin', never even moved a muscle. He had this Swedish masseuse come every so often, give him a rubdown. Then, one night, bingo! There he was, givin her a rubdown.
Max:
No kiddin'?
Chester Purkey:
Caught him red-handed. Except that idiot cameraman. He got so carried away, he forgot to roll the film.
Max:
Couldn't you ask for another take?
Chester Purkey:
