James Duncan:
Patty - you and Susan stay right here where I can find you. Now don't leave this table. (Pointing to Roger) You I wanna talk to. (Duncan & Simmons walk away from the table) Did you change any of Doug's electrical specifications?

Roger Simmons:
I most certainly did.

James Duncan:
For God's sakes why?

Roger Simmons:
The reason should be obvious - especially to you!

James Duncan:
We've got a fire. And if it was caused by anything you did I'm going to hang you out to dry, and then I'm going to hang you!

(After the evacuation has begun)

Roger Simmons:
I don't like the way you talk to me.

James Duncan:
You drunk?

Roger Simmons:
Not yet.

James Duncan:
Well then get out of my way!

Roger Simmons:
You didn't talk like this 2 years ago, did you? Running over budget and out of money. Did you ask me then how I could shave $2 million dollars off our electrical costs?

James Duncan:
Shut up and help me with these people!

Roger Simmons:
And let me ask you my dear father-in-law: am I the only subcontractor you encouraged to cut corners? Where did you save the other $4 million in Doug's original budget?!
