Dan Rydell:
[Dan is "in the zone."] You know what they say?

Casey McCall:
About what?

Dan Rydell:
About money won.

Casey McCall:
[with gusto] *What* do they say?

Dan Rydell:
I don't know; I'm asking.

Casey McCall:
They say it's twice as sweet as money earned.

Dan Rydell:
How come you said, "What do they say?"

Casey McCall:
Eh, it was an alley-oop pass; I was dishing you the ball.

Dan Rydell:
[with awe] You *were*... and I completely missed it.

Casey McCall:
Eh, I was there for the put-back.

Dan Rydell:
I wouldn't have been able to do anything with it anyway...

Casey McCall:
That's right.

Dan Rydell:
...because I didn't know the expression.

Casey McCall:
Not only that, but it was like half an hour ago, and we're still talking about it.

Dan Rydell:
[stops; Casey keeps walking] Uh-oh.

[Casey stops, turns around, and looks at Dan]

Casey McCall:
[smugly] You're not in the zone any more, are you?

Dan Rydell:
[looks lost] Not in the zone.

Casey McCall:
Lost the zone.

Dan Rydell:
I'm down here with the rest of you!

Casey McCall:
Let's play cards. Come on!
