I Love Old Movies
SAM
(earnestly)
Please, boss, let’s go. Ain’t nothing but trouble for you here.
RICK
She’s coming back. I know she’s coming back.
SAM
We’ll take the car and drive all night. We’ll get drunk. We’ll go fishing and stay away until she’s gone.
RICK
Shut up and go home, will you?
SAM
(stubbornly)
No, sir. I’m staying right here.
Sam sits down at the piano and starts to play softly, improvising.
RICK
They grab Ugarte and she walks in.
Well, that’s the way it goes. One in, one out. Sam?
SAM
Yeah, boss?
RICK
Sam, if it’s December 1941 in Casablanca, what time is it in New York?
SAM
Uh, my watch stopped.
RICK
I bet they’re asleep in New York.
I’ll bet they’re asleep all over America.
Suddenly he pounds the table and buries his head in his arms.
Then he raises his head, trying to regain control.
RICK
Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world, she walks into mine.
He holds his head in his hands.[youtube=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qa8d-jwFwds]
