Duke: Good morning, Rusty Nail charters. Person: Yeah, Duke, this is Diaz. Where's the rest of my stuff? Duke: You didn't get it yet? We made the drop last night! Person: It was short, man, very short. Duke: Wait a minute, let me check the apple. What's your account number with us? Person: What are you talking about, man? Duke: Here it is. For future reference, your number TB 765085. Person: Are you crazy? You keep records? Duke: It facilitates billing, Diaz. Besides, in the case of a raid, I can destroy everything with the touch of a button. No more fooling with fires or toilets. Okay, your file's coming up now...bad news, man. We've lost ten bales in the computer. Person: No problem. I'll just send a couple guys over to help you take it apart. User to computer: Let's get cracking. Computer to user: go away, I'm down.
