Szell:
You keep me waiting. Why? To upset me?

Doc:
Good evening.

Szell:
I'm not one to be mocked, and your behavior—

Doc:
Don't give me any static about my behavior, not after what you've been pulling.

Szell:
I've done nothing.

Doc:
You're going to tell me that Chen acted on his own?

Szell:
I don't know what you're talking about.

Doc:
I don't mind you hiring him, but my brother for Chrissake's! Did you have to involve him?

Szell:
It was nothing.

Doc:
It was a violation. We do not involve family. We never involve family.

Szell:
Think of it as a warning. Nothing more.

[Doc slaps Szell. Szell shouts in pain and collapses. His two associates come to Szell's aid]

Doc:
Think of that as a warning and nothing more.

Szell:
You would like to fight, wouldn't you? It will not happen. I'm much too old and far too smart for that. [He gets up] But we... must talk truthfully. Are you to be trusted?

Doc:

Szell:

Doc:

Szell:
Perhaps I've already been.

Doc:
If you had, you wouldn't be here talking to me, would you?

Szell:
And what else do you know?

Doc:
I know that you're panicking. You think when you leave the bank, someone's gonna rob you.

Szell:
Who would do such a thing?

Doc:
Obviously, you think I would.

Szell:
Well? Can I trust you?

Doc:
You never could. You only had to.

Szell:
We're talking of my safety.

Doc:
May I be candid?

Szell:
Yes.

Doc:
I couldn't give a f*** about your—

[Szell stabs Doc with a push dagger hidden in his sleeve, and Doc gasps. Szell takes the knife out of Doc and leaves with his men while Doc collapses]
