Whom do you think Butch chose?

At the end of the film, Janie tells the three guys that she'll have to sleep
on it and make her choice of which to marry in the morning. Butch looks moonily
in their general direction and gushes something like, "I already know which one I'd choose," and each of them, thinking she means him, thanks her. I'm guessing
it wouldn't have been Harry, since she didn't seem to take to him much. Maybe
Dick, just because he was rich and she seemed rather pragmatic, but she might
have gone for the "sensible" Tom, too. Any thoughts?
(My choice would have been Harry, since he was the cutest. And he was crazy).

I'm not crying, you fool, I'm laughing!

I'll say Harry, mainly because I don't remember her having any scenes with the other two guys. ( I did miss some of the flick, though, in my defense in case this was a stupid comment.)

I think she would have chose Harry. I kinda got the impression that she did like him because she winked at him when Harry and Janie were leaving. Also, he did try to engage her in conversation, so that probably made her like him a bit more too.
