  Eddie Harrington : Alright.

  Albert Mansfield : We manage to keep our head above water.

• Drexel : You know I never told you fellas this but I'm quite a fortune teller. I can see into the future.

  Drexel : [Grabs a big glass paper weight then looks into it]  I see two plumbers they're doing pretty good.

  Albert Mansfield : More competition.

  Drexel : But they're double-crossing a friend of theirs who gave them their start.

  Albert Mansfield : That's what I call being ungrateful. I have no use for those kind of people.

  Drexel : This friend of theirs is getting mad. Now he wants them to cooperate with him or pay back the money he gave them. He's giving them till six o'clock tonight to get it.

  Eddie Harrington : But suppose they can't get it by six o'clock tonight?

  Drexel : Then I see two plumbers floating down the river and one of them's a little fat guy.

  Drexel : [Hands a big glass paper weight to Albert] 

  Albert Mansfield : [Looks into the big glass paper weight then quickly puts it down] 

  Eddie Harrington : What's the matter?

  Albert Mansfield : The joke is on him.

  Eddie Harrington : Why?

  Albert Mansfield : I can't swim.
