Crossing a street, she walks straight across the passenger cabin of a horse-drawn carriage parked alongside the pavement, to the bewilderment of the passengers and driver. The cab drives away as Ann continues on.? A light pours from the window of a room on the second floor of the building the carriage was parked in front of... Inside the room are sat Joe Bradley, Irving Radovich, and several other men around a poker table.
CARD PLAYER 1. Bet five hundred.
JOE [placing his bet down, firmly] Five hundred. How many?
?IRVING [placing his bet] One.? The others still in the game place theirs.
CARD PLAYER 1. I'll take one.
CARD PLAYER 2. Three.
JOE. Fool, boy. [Checks his cards; bets more] Two for papa(莊家要兩張).
CARD PLAYER 1 [places a note in the pool] Five hundred more.
JOE [following] Without lookin'（我照跟）.
IRVING. Five hundred; and, er [clears his throat], raise you a thousand（我跟，還大你一千）.? Joe looks at him suspiciously. Irving rubs his beard but stays unemotional. Joe places his money in the pool.
CARD PLAYER 1 [laying his cards down] Two pairs.
JOE. Oh, well I got three shy little sevens（我有三張七）.
IRVING. Er, a nervous straight(同花順) [lays his cards down; Then, with relish] Come home, you fools（我贏光你們的）. [Counting his money as he picks it up; Joe looks on grimly] Now, look at that: six thousand five hundred-ah, not bad, that's ten bucks. [As the dealer gathers the cards back and Joe does up his tie] Er, one more round and I'm gonna throw you gents right out in the snow... ?（再來一局饭弓，你們就要清袋了）双饥。
The remaining players objective to his leaving: Say-; what-; wait a minute-, etc.
IRVING. I got to get up early: date with Her Royal Highness who will [dramatically] graciously pose for some pictures.
JOE. What do you mean, early? My personal invitation says eleven forty-five.
CARD PLAYER 1. Couldn't be anything to do with the fact that you're ahead? （你贏了錢就想走？）
IRVING [smiling] It could.
JOE. It works out fine for me: this is my last five thousand and you hyenas are not gonna get it. [Putting his money in his pocket, patting Irving on the back] Thanks a lot, Irving.
IRVING. Yeah.
JOE [getting up] See you at Annie's little party in the morning.
IRVING. Ciao, Joe.
JOE [picking up his jacket off the back of the chair] Yeah, ciao. [The other men say goodbye: Goodnight, Joe; Ciao; Stay sober, etc.
IRVING [as Joe leaves] Alright! a little seven card stud. （好了示启，再來一局）
CARD PLAYER 1. Ok with me.
Joe Bradley walks along the street, hands in pockets.
