I'm coming, Danny.
Tulossa ollaan, Danny.
We're late, George.
Olemme myöhässä, George.
Everybody's here but Eddie.
-Kaikki ovat paikalla paitsi Eddie.
You tell him seven o'clock sharp? I told him, but he didn't seem too anxious.
-Käskitkö hänen tulla seitsemältä?
I'm not sure he's right for us.
-Mahtaakohan hän olla sopiva?
We need a top writer, don't we? Now, where we gonna find one? Press agents are a dime a dozen.
-Tarvitsemme hyvän kirjoittajan.
I don't want a press agent.
-Haluan oikean urheilutoimittajan.
I want an established sports writer. - You understand? - He's a has-been.
-Hänellä ei ole enää palstaakaan.
- He doesn't have a column anymore.
Hän on huipputasoa.
He still meets the big columnists on their own level, and the boys like him and they believe what he tells 'em.
Hänestä pidetään ja häntä uskotaan.
What makes you think he'll work for you?
-Miksi uskot hänen suostuvan?
Because I think he's ready, that's what makes me think so.
-Koska uskon hänen olevan valmis.
Now, you understand?
Ymmärrättekö?
You understand?
Hyvä.
I see you've cleaned the place up a little - since I was here last.
-Olet siivonnut sitten viime käyntini.
Why so early in the morning? What are you hiding, Nick?
-Miksi tapaamme näin aikaisin?
Well, when I find a good thing, I like to keep it quiet. Understand?
-Haluan pitää löytöni salassa.
Who is it this time? Vince, see what he's doin'.
-Kenestä on kyse tällä kertaa?
Eddie, you're a big talent. You're a real, real big talent.
Eddie, olet suuri kyky.
I used to read your column every day in the newspaper, and then, when the newspaper folded, I missed it.
Luin palstaasi joka päivä ennen kuin lehti lopetettiin.
Yeah, well, let's skip the build-up. Get down to the main event.
-Mene vain suoraan asiaan.
All righty. I got a position I want you to fill. Now, it's not the usual press agent's routine.
-Minulla on sinulle töitä.
It's an importantjob that calls for an important man, it pays important money, and I think you're important.
Se on tärkeä työ tärkeälle miehelle.
- Interested? - Well, I didn't come here to work out. All righty.
-En minä kuntoilemaankaan tullut.
Now, look, the fa... - George, what's he doin'? - Gettin' ready, mr benko.
George!
- Well, tell him to hurry it up.
Hän on valmistautumassa, mr Benko.
Okay. Eddie, the fight game in this country is fallin' apart.
Tämän maan nyrkkeily on kuihtumassa.
The boys are all gettin' too smart.
Pojat ovat liian fiksuja.
They all wanna go to college, they wanna become doctors, they wanna become lawyers, they don't wanna fight for a iivin'.
He haluavat opiskella lääkäreiksi tai lakimiehiksi.
So, I sent a couple of the boys abroad to find me some new material.
Lähetin pari miestäni ulkomaille.
I think they come up with a winner.
He löysivät oikean voittajasuosikin.
He just got off the boat this morning. The guy's name is, er... Toro moreno.
-Hänen nimensä on Toro Moreno.
Toro moreno? I never heard of him. I told you he's new, didn't I?
Minähän sanoin, että hän on uusi.
Oh, mr agrandi? Mr agrandi, this is mr Willis, a very famous sports writer, who's gonna make toro famous.
Mr Agrandi, tässä on mr Willis.
- Oh, it's a pleasure to meet you, sefior. - Likewise.
-On ilo tutustua, señor.
I don't think we should keep mr Willis waiting, do you? No, no, sefior benko.
Ettehän halua odotuttaa mr Willisiä?
All right. That spic, he's toro's manager.
Hän on Toron manageri.
I had to bring him from Argentina because toro's lost without him.
Hänetkin piti ottaa mukaan Argentiinasta.
What does this deal pay? Why don't you stay and take look at him first? If the money's not right, why waste our time?
Ellei palkkaa tule tarpeeksi, en tuhlaa aikaani.
All righty, two-fifty a week.
-Hyvä on. 250 viikossa.
No, no, no. You'll have to up it.
Se ei riitä.
All right, so you'll have an open-end expense account.
Saat käyttöösi avoimen edustustilin.
Now, Leo here, he's the bookkeeper. Writes the cheques, charges it off to business, and, for you, it's tax-free.
Kirjanpitäjämme Leo hoitaa kaiken.
All right, I'll take a look at him.
Minä vilkaisen häntä.
I really can pick 'em, can't I?
Minulla on silmää lahjakkuuksille, vai mitä?
Let's say you have a special gift for picking the right people for the rightjob.
Olet lahjakas löytämään oikeat ihmiset oikeisiin tehtäviin.
How long have I been after you? Was it eight years? How many times did you turn me down?
Olen havitellut sinua yli kahdeksan vuotta.
Ten or twenty times. Now, did I get discouraged?
Annoinko koskaan periksi?
No, sir.
En todellakaan.
No, sir. You wait around long enough, and, sooner or later, everything falls right in your lap. Like rotten apples, huh?
Kun jaksaa odottaa, kaikki putoaa valmiina syliin.
