I ain't a young fella like you.

Oh, I'm not so young.

Well, according to Jed, you are.

His exact words to me, he says, now you be sure and speak to young Mr. Drysdale about that job.

Job?

Come on, I wasn't going to let that slip out.

I was bound and determined not to.

Will you just forget it, Mr. Bank.

It's Jed's idea, not mine.

Now, tell me all about it.

Any idea of Jed Kravitz?

I want to hear.

Well, Jed, he had this notion that you might could hire me to watch his money for him down to your bank.

Oh, you mean like a guard or a night watchman?

I'd watch.

That sounds like it.

I've said it before and I'll say it again.

Oh, why not?

Well, it makes me feel like I'd treat a possum with Jed's hound.

Oh, of course, I see your point.
