Jackson : [talking into Joe's desk phone] Jackson here. Give me Red.
Makuta : [after searching through the office] I'll check upstairs.
Jackson : Hey, Red, we're out. And we found the place. 17 Paseo Verde. Pick us up as soon as it's done. No, man, we'll be fine as silk.
[hangs up the phone]
Jackson : All set.
Clay : Oh, that's cool. All we have to do now is... kill some time.
Makuta : [returning from upstairs with a beer bottle and some glasses] Look what I found.
Jackson : Beautiful.
[Makuta pours everyone a glass]
Jackson : Peace and quiet.
Peggy Fair : Three cons on the run.
Clay : Come on now, we're tourists. Here today, gone tomorrow. Just looking at the sights.
[to Celia]
Clay : What's your name, honey?
[touches Celia's chin. Celia slaps him. He grabs her arm and Joe reacts]
Jackson : Relax, investigator.
Clay : Only trouble today is that there's not enough love in this world.
Celia James : Don't touch me.
Jackson : Clay? Clay! Knock it off. All of you, relax. You won't get hurt. We just want a place to stay.
Makuta : And, uh, maybe some bread. Yes?
Jackson : Yeah, we could use some traveling dough.
Clay : Oh, uh, you don't mind to give sweets?
[Joe gives him some money from his pocket]
Makuta : Where's the loot? Well, maybe a house to house search will...
Peggy Fair : Outside on the desk! But it won't get you to Long Beach!
[Makuta goes to front desk and searches it]
Clay : 22 bucks.
Jackson : 40-some. Where's the office safe?
Joe Mannix : We don't have one.
Makuta : Okay, black girl, where is it?
Peggy Fair : He just told you we don't have one! Drop dead!
[Makuta grabs Peggy, Joe punches him, and Makuta draws his gun]
Jackson : [restraining Makuta] MAKUTA!
Joe Mannix : Excuse me.
Jackson : Easy, man. Easy. Come on.
[sits back in Joe's chair]
Jackson : Look, there doesn't have to be any trouble. We'll be out of here by the time it's dark. But we need traveling bread.
Joe Mannix : I got a check cashed.
Makuta : Sure. At your bank, maybe.
Joe Mannix : One of you can come with me.
Jackson : You're full of angles, Mannix. Figure out something that's foolproof.
