( in an act of supreme charity, howard will intervene and bargain on allison's behalf. )
Listen here, Rat Pack. And be straight with us. None of that philosophical bullshit. Now, how are we gonna find out what we gotta find out if you don't tell us what we gotta find out? It's only fair that we learn the exact terms of this here transaction. That'll cover a lot of ground. Speaking of which, you cover a lot of ground yourself. You'd better beat it. I hear they're gonna tear you down and put up an office building where you're standing. You can leave in a taxi. If you can't get a taxi, you can leave in a huff. If that's too soon, you can leave in a minute and a huff —
( any attempt to speak by the packrat will be cut off by endless and loud chatter from howard. )
— You know, you haven't stopped talking since we met. You must've been vaccinated with a phonograph needle. Don't look now, but there's one man too many here. And I think it's you.
