Broadway to Cheyenne Quote
[referring to a newspaper headline which reads "'Get Out of Town' District Attorney Tells Beer Barons"]
B.H. 'Butch' Owens: That's bad publicity for my business!
New York City Dist. Atty. Brent: You've been reading the funny papers again, Owens.
B.H. 'Butch' Owens: Look here, Brent, you can't get away with this! You can't put me...
New York City Dist. Atty. Brent: I can't... but I will. You and every rat that hasn't found a hole to crawl into when that deadline is up.
B.H. 'Butch' Owens: I've heard that before - just around election time.
New York City Dist. Atty. Brent: Yes, but get this, Owens - you're a candidate right now for that "hot seat" at The Big House. And if you're in town by this time tomorrow, you're as good as elected.
