Motel Clerk:
I'm sorry sir. I can't accept this credit card. [hands Clark back his credit card]

Clark:
Why not?

Motel Clerk:
The computer says it's been reported lost.

Clark:
Oh no. You see my wife lost her's back in Colorado, I had to report it, and the computer is probably saying I lost mine, which obviously I haven't.

Motel Clerk:
Well you're going to have to straighten that out with your bank.

Clark:
[takes out checkbook] Do you take personal checks?

Motel Clerk:
For how much?

Clark:
300 dollars.

Motel Clerk:
I can't do that sir.

Clark:
Look I've lost all my cash and we're on our way to California...

Motel Clerk:
[unamused] Walley World?

Clark:
Yeah. Walley World. And I am sort of stuck between a rock and a hard place. I'd really appreciate it.

Motel Clerk:
[sternly] Not without a major credit card.

Clark:
I have $6.13 to my name, so I see we're going to have to work something out here.

Motel Clerk:
[becoming more annoyed] Look I already told you, I can't accept a check without a major credit card.

Clark:
I'm making this out for 1000 dollars. All you have to do is give me 300 dollars in cash, keep the other 700... all for doing nothing more than acting like a total creep.

Motel Clerk:
[glares at Clark angrily] The only thing I can do is let you stay here until the check clears; 10 working days! [a phone rings in the background, and the clerk walks off-screen to answer it. Clark bangs his fist on the desk in frustration, causing the cash register to open. After a pause, he grabs a load of money from the register, puts the check in the register, puts on a cowboy hat, and runs off]
