  • Michael Anthony : [Anthony enters Jerry Bell's room]  Mr. Bell?

    Jerry Bell : Yes.

    Michael Anthony : My name is Michael Anthony. I'd like to speak to you for a moment.

    Jerry Bell : You know, Mr. Anthony, you picked a pretty bad time. I'm kind of busy here. And if you're selling something I got...

    Michael Anthony : No, Mr. Bell, I'm... I haven't come to *sell* anything. I've come bearing a gift.

    [looks around] 

    Michael Anthony : It's rather confidential. May I close the door?

    Jerry Bell : Well, sure, go ahead.

    Michael Anthony : [Opening his briefcase and withdrawing a check]  A million dollars. It's a gift to you from an anonymous donor. And it's yours, free and clear

    [Goes into his briefcase again and removes a form]
