Transcript:
The Hawaiian: With you permanently out of the way, I can easily get my target and leave this town of beans. Rip Haywire: Your target is a kid, Hawaiian... The Hawaiian: Money is money Rip Haywire: You're nuts, and not the good kind like cashews. You're one of those fillers in the mixed nuts. The Hawaiian: Well, I'll be a rich hazel-nut. Rip Haywire: Don't you dare insult the Hazelnut, they're scrumptious. The Hawaiian: Get off the boat! Rip Haywire: Brazil Nut! That's what they're called! You're a Brazil Nut!

He’s a coconut with a pineapple’s salary. Dang, now I’m getting hungry.

Didn’t the Hawaiian save his village from burning? There were children in that village, no doubt. I’m surprised he doesn’t have a shred of concern for a child, rich or not rich.

Hey, Brazils are the nuts the filler sits between. Brazils are the jewels in the nutty setting. Still, I agree with Rip that cashews are “the good kind.” Macadamias haven’t been mentioned, and they seem appropriate to associate with a Hawaiian, but they can be delectable as well. And almonds — who can beat a well-toasted almond? So that leaves peanuts, which are delicious. But they’re cheap. That’s the key, isn’t it? The filler isn’t the one you don’t want to eat; it’s the one cheap enough to bring down the average cost. So does the Hawaiian come cheap? When he says “Money is money”, is he saying he’d settle for small denominations? Or is he saying, “Pay me enough and I’d kill my own grandmother”? Figuring out how to read this nutty situation will be a tough nut for Rip to crack.
