one o'clock
`` Lubliner was here last night after we are going home ? '' Polatkin asked . `` Sure , he was , '' Markulies replied -- `` at half-past six yet . '' `` Then that only goes to show what a liar you are , '' Polatkin declared , `` because myself I am letting Elkan go home at one o'clock on account the feller is so sick , understand me , he could hardly walk out of the place at all . Furthermore , he says he is going right straight to bed when he leaves here ; so , if you want to explain how it is the garments disappear when you are in the place here alone , Markulies , go ahead with your lies . Might Mr. Scheikowitz stole 'em maybe -- or I did ! What ? ''
