This place is dead, but the Countess says they'll soon be shooting some tenement-house stuff up at the Consolidated. Maybe there'll be something in it for someone. We might as well have a look-in."
"If we're to go into the submarine boat line we've got to learn to look as though we liked anything under water." "Let's take a look-in and see how Andrews likes it," proposed Eph.

Sure, there's somethin' runnin the big works; but whether me or you is goin' to get a look-in, goin' to be let in on it, why, that's different." Winthrop drew back from the fire and crossed his legs.

"Youse keeps yer yap closed till youse gets de cue savvy? Dat's all! If youse play fair, mabbe youse'll get a look-in on de rake-off; if youse throws me down, the first shot I fires won't miss youse. Go on now, get down behind dat chair quick!"
