• Mitch McKane : What's the hurry? Surprised to see me?

  Harry Delano : Why Mitch, you old son of a gun. How are ya? It makes it seem like old times to see you around here. Glad to see ya.

  Mitch McKane : Yeah, I'll bet you are.

  Harry Delano : Uh, Buck said you wanna see me about something?

  Mitch McKane : Yeah.

  Harry Delano : Well it it's about Buck's joint, I just fixed up the old lady.

  Mitch McKane : I ain't worried about the joint, you dirty double-crossing little rat.

  Harry Delano : Oh, it's a lie. I ain't had nothing to do with Freddy.

  Mitch McKane : No? Well, I got it straight, and I'm putting the finger on you now.

  Harry Delano : No, Mitch. I'm honest, I didn't.

  Mitch McKane : Something's gonna happen to you.
