Transcript:

Duke: Beautiful! We're taking a meeting on monday! Alice: How exciting! How long do you think it'll be before we show a profit? Duke: Not long. But first I gotta iron out a few details. Like finding $200 to get out to Los Angeles. Alice: No problem, ducks. I've gota little money stashed away for emergencies. Duke: You'd give me $200? What's the hitch? Alice: I want a $250,000 bonus at the start of principal photography and 15% of the gross after direct costs, plus a sequel option! Duke: For a lousy $200 investment? Alice: It was my idea. Also, I want to stay at the Bel Air when I come out to the coast.
