The New Adventures of China Smith1954

[Quaile wants to hire Smith to steal his bible back from a Communist colonel]

Quaile:
I know it's dangerous...

China Smith:
Dangerous? For two thousand dollars, it's ridiculous. Getting in and out of North Indochina is tough enough.

Quaile:
Twenty-five hundred.

China Smith:
And that's to burgle an army officer's house, too?

Quaile:
Three thousand and all expenses.

China Smith:
Including burial?

Quaile:
Four! I'd go myself, but... Will you please help me?

China Smith:
You just hired a Smith! It's a fine nice word, "please". And you'd have saved yourself some money if you'd used it sooner.
