Jaws1975

[In the hospital, Martin walks over to Larry]

Mayor Vaughn:
I'm sorry, I'm truly sorry.

[Martin pulls Larry aside]

Chief Brody:
You got a pen, Larry?

Mayor Vaughn:
A pen?

Chief Brody:
Yeah, a pen! You know. 'Cause you're gonna do what you do best: you're gonna sign this voucher so I can hire a contractor.

Mayor Vaughn:
I don't think I can do that without-

Chief Brody:
I'm gonna hire Quint to kill the shark!

[Larry nods, and starts to think]

Mayor Vaughn:
August, August...

Chief Brody:
August? What are you talking about? Larry, summer's over. You're the mayor of "Shark City!" These people think you want the beaches open!

Mayor Vaughn:
I was-I was acting-in the town's best interest-

Chief Brody:
That's right! You were! You were acting in the town's best interest, and that's why you're gonna do the right thing! That's why you're gonna sign this, and we're gonna pay that guy what he wants!

Mayor Vaughn:
Martin...Martin, my kids were on that beach too.

Chief Brody:
Sign it, Larry.

[Larry signs it, and Martin walks out]
