Madame Ruby
Cash only.
No cards, no checks.
You got cash? [PeeWee nods]
Let me take your jacket. [jerks away]
You want to wear a wet jacket,
it's all right with Madam Ruby.
For $20 I can tell you a lot of things.
For $30 I can tell you more.
And for $50 I can tell you everything.
[drops crumpled bills on table]
Pee Wee
Tell me why I'm here.
Madame Ruby
You're here because you...
...want something.
Let's see...
...what Madam Ruby sees.
I see...
...a bicycle.
Pee Wee
Yes! Is it okay?
Madame Ruby
It's okay.
Pee Wee
Where is it?! Can you see it?
Where is it?!
Madame Ruby
Where is it?
It's somewhere else.
Somewhere far away.
Pee Wee
Where?!
Madame Ruby
The Alamo.
Pee Wee
The Alamo.
Madame Ruby
In the basement.
Pee Wee
I'll never forget you.
Pee Wee's Big Adventure is one of my favorite films of all time. When the clairvoyant Madame Ruby tells Pee Wee
his bike is in the basement of the Alamo, he rushes off cross country to track down his bike. Sure, so maybe there isn't a basement in the Alamo, but there is a basement in Flossmoor. And guess what it has it in? Barrel Aged Beers!
