  E.A. Smith : [pointing to an open bag]  What's that?

  Vincent 'Vince' Day : [putting bundles of notes on the desk]  That is, ten... twenty... thirty thousand dollars.

  E.A. Smith : I won't accept it.

  Vincent 'Vince' Day : Of course not. But I thought you might just like to identify the wrappers.

  E.A. Smith : [looking at the notes]  thirty thousand?

  Vincent 'Vince' Day : Precisely. It's better than nothing.

  Vincent 'Vince' Day : [looking at a paper tendered by Day]  What's this?

  Vincent 'Vince' Day : An agreement not to prosecute Barton.

  E.A. Smith : And if I refuse to sign it?

  Vincent 'Vince' Day : Then Barton stands trial and you gain nothing but a black eye for your firm.

  E.A. Smith : Day, you're positively the most unmitigated scoundrel in the world.

  Vincent 'Vince' Day : It's comforting to know that I'm progressing so rapidly in your esteem!
