  • [Bill stops pacing as he and Ma realize something and turn their attention toward Dave]
  • Dave Firpo: [chuckles nervously] Ma. Who wrote what to whom? It's a moot point at this juncture. Don't you think? Especially given the gravity of the situation... outside.

  • Rutag Guard: Two-hundred and fifty thousand dollars. Just sign here.
