• 'Mac' McManus : [Noticing that the trustee barber shaving Brady is a former cutthroat]  Say, you know who that barber is.

  Mark Brady : Yeah, sure I do.

  'Mac' McManus : You better lay off and grow a beard!

• 'Mac' McManus : How about you Galloway?

  Galloway : Not me - I've got an appointment with a guy.

  'Mac' McManus : What do you mean?

  Galloway : You know I was in for 20 years, don't you?

  'Mac' McManus : Yeah.

  Galloway : Well I done eight, and they let me out on parole. Well, I went into a Speakeasy. I wanted to watch the taste of this slop they called grub out of my mouth. I had a drink - just one - and somebody saw me take that drink, and squealed. They sent me back for the rest of my jolt.

  'Mac' McManus : Just for... .?

  Galloway : Yeah - twelve years, for one lousy glass of beer. The guy that squealed is in here too. I've got an appointment with him - and 12 years to keep it.
