Smith. That’s the funniest thing I ever heard of.

Rodney. What’s funny about it?

Smith. You in business! (He laughs again)

Rodney. And as a business man I’d like to talk to you regarding a very interesting business proposition in which I am now interested.

Smith. Nothing doing.

Rodney. (Gulping) I thought I’d like to borrow ten—say a few thousand dollars.

Smith. No.

Rodney. Perhaps five thousand.
