:55:00
Oh, come right up, Mr. Jenkins.
:55:03
Binelli, he's here, the backer!
He's here!
:55:06
- Santa Claus.
- Neckties. Faker?
:55:09
Hey, Faker, where are you?
:55:13
Walked out on us. How do you like that?
That's two sick men running around.
:55:18
You know, Binelli, we may
start an epidemic in this town.
:55:21
Go downstairs and see
if you can find him.
:55:24
If Wagner catches sight of him,
we're sunk.
:55:28
Oh, Mr. Jenkins!
How are you? Glad to see you.
:55:32
- Come right in.
- Fine, thanks. I see we're alone today.
:55:36
Yes, I thought...
:55:39
I thought it would be
better that way.
:55:41
- Much better.
- I have the contract right here.
:55:44
Fifty shares of Hail and Farewell...
:55:46
...made out in the name of Simon Jenkins.
Just a few paragraphs.
:55:50
"Simon Jenkins, 50 shares."
Transferable, of course.
:55:54
- Of course.
- I see. That's fine. Fine.
:55:59
You're going to see the signature
on this check anyway...
:56:03
...so you might as well know
who your backer is.
:56:07
- Did you ever hear of...
- Zachary Fiske?
:56:11
Zachary Fiske himself.
That's the man I represent.
:56:15
Now you realize why
I don't want any publicity.
:56:17
You don't have to go any further.
:56:20
This check's made out to me, naturally.
But I'll just endorse it over to you.
:56:25
"Culver City, California"?
:56:28
That means about five days
before I'll get the money.
:56:32
- I thought I could get started today.
- Young energy.
:56:36
I could have our bank wire certification
to your bank, if that will help.
:56:41
- If it isn't too much trouble.
- None at all. I'll make a note of it.
:56:46
If you'll be good enough
to sign the contract...
:56:49
Oh, Mr. Miller, I must
remind you once again.
:56:53
The name of Zachary Fiske must remain
in the background at any cost.
:56:57
Mr. Jenkins, you have my word,
and you know what that's worth.
