Transcripts from TVMegasite Henry: Hey! How did your absolutely very last legal case go? Bonnie: Great. I got Paul what he needed. If I do say so myself, I was brilliant. Henry: Oh, that's very groovy. We can celebrate later. Unfortunately, we have a busload of Cubs fans coming in, and we are running out of beer. Bonnie: Yes, I'm on it. You know what, now that I'm done with all of my legal duties, I can finally spend all of my time and energy focusing on this place. What are you doing, Henry? Come on. You're doing this all wrong. You watch and learn. Henry: As you wish, oh, wise one.
Paul: Hey, Bonnie. Bonnie: Hey. Paul: I didn't expect to see you here. I thought you'd be home relaxing after such a difficult day. Bonnie: This is relaxing for me. Where's Meg? You guys out celebrating tonight? Paul: No. She's giving her mom the good news. I have some business to discuss with Henry. Bonnie: Oh, I see. Just stay out of trouble, okay? Paul: Okay. I'll do that. Henry: Hey! If it isn't Paul Ryan --Mega-developer. What are you having? Paul: I need some money. Henry: Well, you've come to the wrong place, Paul. Sorry. Paul: Really? 'Cause I was hoping that -- well, you knew people. Henry: If you are saying what I think you are saying, you don't want to know these people. Paul: I'll take my chances. Henry: No, no, no, no. Taking your chances is not wearing sunscreen in Miami. These are dangerous people, Paul, with a capital "D," which means "Death," which could happen to you. You can forget about it, Buddy. Paul: Henry, I need an introduction, and I need it tonight.
Henry: This number will connect you to an acquaintance who is a friend of a friend. Paul: Thank you. Henry: Look, I'm all for playing the long odds, Paul, but no matter how much money you think you can make off this development deal, it is not worth risking your life. Paul: My life is about more than just money. I intend to keep it that way.
Bonnie: So, what did my erstwhile client Paul Ryan want to talk to you about? Henry: No, I think I would drop Paul as a client if I were you. Bonnie: Oh. Well, you know I never really intended on working for him anymore. Helping you keep this place profitable is going to take up a lot of my time. Henry: Oh, if you weren't making me so much money, I would resent that statement. Bonnie: Yeah, and I would resent it if you were doing something shady behind my back. Henry: Moi? Bonnie: Paul comes in here, you guys have a little chat, and then you slip him something, he leaves? Henry: Yeah. Yeah, he asked me for a phone number, I gave it to him, and then he left. There's nothing shady about that. Bonnie: Well, I didn't think so till you just made that crack about dropping Paul as a client. So what's he into, Henry? Henry: That is bartender-customer privileged information. Bonnie: There is no such thing. Henry: Bonnie, you know what, just -- just stay away from him, okay? 'Cause if he's not careful, he's not only gonna need a lawyer, he's gonna need a doctor.
