  Michael Anthony : I'm sorry to disturb you so late, but, ah, may I come in? I have some extremely good news.

  David Tremayne : Come in.

  Michael Anthony : [Anthony enters, opening his briefcase]  I, uh, wanted to give you this cashier's check, made out to you,

  [Tremayne yawns] 

  Michael Anthony : in the sum of $1,000,000.

  [Gives check to Tremayne] 

  David Tremayne : What'd you say?

  David Tremayne : What is all this? Who would wanna give me a million dollars?

  Michael Anthony : Yes, right here.

  David Tremayne : Right there.

  Michael Anthony : Yes, right there.

  Michael Anthony : Good night.
