[Max is conferring with Shinji Kuraki of Hiroshima Video, who wants to sell "Samurai Dreams", a series of artful softcore films, to his network]
Max Renn : Well... I looked over the stills. I am interested - a little bit. How many shows you got?
Shinji Kuraki : Thirteen, with a possibility of another six if the sales go well.
Max Renn : You got cassettes?
Shinji Kuraki : [he and Max chuckle] Of course!
[he gestures to his aide, Hiro Nakamura, who opens a briefcase containing the tapes and takes out the first film]
Max Renn : No, hold it... ah, show me the last one.
Hiro Nakamura : [inquires in Japanese]
Max Renn : Number 13.
Shinji Kuraki : But Max, you won't understand anything! Everything is set up in the first two.
Max Renn : Hey, my audience ain't gonna see the first two shows. Now, show me the last one.
