  Mendez : Hey, I'm fine.

  [motioning to Mr. Joshua] 

  Mendez : Where the hell did you get him? Psychos 'R Us?

  McAllister : I don't think you're funny.

  Mendez : I don't think this whole goddamn setup's funny. You're using mercenaries, for chrissake, tell me I'm wrong.

  McAllister : No. You're not wrong.

  Mendez : And you expect me to trust these fuckin' bozos?

  McAllister : My people are loyal, Mr. Mendez. They are loyal to me.

  Mendez : Ohhh, bullshit...

  McAllister : Do you smoke?

  Mendez : What the hell does that got to do with anything, do I smoke...

  McAllister : Do you smoke?

  Mendez : Yeah.

  McAllister : Give me your lighter.

  Mendez : My... my lighter?

  McAllister : Your lighter!

  Mendez : Yeah, okay right here... here, take it...

  [thugs grab his arm, General McAllister grabs Mendez's hand, still holding the lighter] 

  Mendez : Hey, man, what the fuck is wrong with you guys? Aw, Jesus...

  McAllister : Shut your mouth! Shut up! And don't move.

  [flicks the lighter on] 

  McAllister : Mr. Joshua, your left arm, please...

  [Mr. Joshua bares his arm, and allows the lighter to be held under his forearm, which starts to burn] 

  Mendez : Hey, you guys are fuckin' gone... you know what I'm sayin'?... Aw, Jesus Christ!

  [looks disgusted, as Joshua's arm continues to be burnt] 

  Mendez : You guys are fuckin' crazy, man. Come on!

  McAllister : [clicking the lighter off]  Have Endo look at that, Mr. Joshua.

  Mr. Joshua : Yes, sir.

  [gives Mendez a look, and walks off] 

  McAllister : [to Mendez]  You wish to do business with us, yes? You wish to make a purchase, yes?

  Mendez : Yes, yes, Jesus Christ, yes... Ya know, you guys are out there like fuckin' Pluto, man. You're gone!

  McAllister : The bulk of the heroin will be here Friday night, we'll make delivery at that time. Have the money ready, and no tricks. If you try anything... you'll have to talk to Mr. Joshua. Merry Christmas.

• Mr. Joshua : Good afternoon Mr. Mendez.

  Mendez : Yeah, how you doing?

  Mr. Joshua : Did you pat him down Mr. Larch?

  Mendez : Aw hey man, we went through this act already...

  Mr. Joshua : [Cutting off Mendez]  Go through it again!

  Mendez : Who are you?

  Mr. Joshua : That's hardly important but if it matters you may call me Mr. Joshua.

  [Turns and motions to follow him] 

  Mr. Joshua : Let's go.

  Mendez : Oh, great, swell, Mr. Joshua, huh?
