    Morey: "What the hell.... we have to do something."

    Bickerstaff:"Smith? Do I have to play him?"

    Morey: "Whatever."

    Bickerstaff: "How does this help us?"

    Morey: "I don't know, at least he isn't Jones or Donatas."

    Bickerstaff: "I like Jones and Donatas."

    Morey: "I bet you do."
