00:00 Yeah, I can see that. It's the light.
00:02 Wait a minute.
00:04 I don't see nothing but shadows.
00:11 It's worse than it was before.
00:14 Hey, Lenny, we told you before the operation there was very little chance you'd ever see clearly out of that eye.
00:19 You told me you could fix my eye, Ray. They said they could fix my eye, didn't they? Huh?
00:24 Fix the eye, Lenny, not the vision.
00:27 It was either that or lose it all together.
00:30 And I just took too many punches.
00:32 I'm sorry.
00:34 Mom will be back here tomorrow, first thing in the morning, okay?
00:50 I'll be here in the afternoon.
00:52 Why don't you go home, Ray? Let him get some rest.
00:56 He's taking this so hard.
00:58 He's not talking, he's not saying anything.
01:02 He doesn't have to be like this.
01:06 I mean, after everything he's been through.
01:08 Everything he's been through.

01:52 Hey, look, 30 to 60 days, that's all we're asking for. That's not a lot, is it?
01:55 Well, an extra month or two, I don't think that would be a problem.
01:58 I think the Army can wait for the boy that's gonna bring us the championship.
02:01 [laughing]
02:02 Lenny, when did you say you filled out those registration forms?
02:05 Uh, sometime last year.
02:07 Uh, here in Youngstown?
02:08 Yeah. No, New York.
02:11 New York?
02:13 Yeah, we was in training camp, remember?
02:15 Well, that means that you're registered there.
02:18 I'm afraid it's out of our hands. It's up to New York.
02:20 You're gonna have to appeal to them.
02:22 Well, you think they'll go along?
02:23 I don't see why not. You're only asking for a short delay.
02:26 Besides, Lenny's got a lot of fans there.
02:28 Hey, look, we're gonna be in New York in a couple of weeks.
02:30 You think that'll be enough time?
02:31 Two weeks?
02:32 Oh, yeah, that's plenty of time.
02:33 Gentlemen, the country's at war.
02:37 The New York office is under order to have 50,000 men in uniform by the first of the year.
02:42 Your man is young, he's single, he's healthy, and he's going.
02:46 Of course, sir. I like the day after the fight.
02:49 You'll be on the train, army, infantry, whatever you want.
02:52 We just need a little time.
02:54 No exceptions, no delays.
