Taking Chances Page #2

to the town council, so...

Sorry, son. You know, some

other town business come up.

- We need the chairs.

- Uh, sir. I got it.

- Got what?

- The answer to our town's financial woes.

What, in there?

Historical tourism.

Take a look at that.

Ah.

And listen to this.

Oh, you got some tunes? No. No.

It's a multimedia presentation.

Here in Patriotville,

we have an abundance of history,

more than most places, in

fact. Well... Yeah, that's...

That's fine.

People love to learn about...

where they come from,

I've found.

- It's the feather.

- Huh?

That feather makes it gay.

Just my two cents.

Sorry about the chairs.

It's a grand

ambition. That's for sure.

But history is a grand subject.

Let's see where it takes us.

And so, in conclusion,

Patriotville is a town

built for business...

your casino business.

Great job, Stove.

Have a sit.

Stove.

So, uh... We think we took

the standard deal on these things...

and, uh, really

upped it a notch.

Yeah. And, uh, then we...

took it up...

another notch.

- So, where did you say you chaps were from?

- Uh, here, originally.

Judge here's

a magician with the law.

Gonna grease this sucker

every inch of the way.

Gonna grease it like a watermelon

in a public pool, huh, Judge?

That's just a saying.

So, uh,

we ready to ink this?

Forty generations ago,

our tribe called

these lands home.

Our ancestors did not know that

promises could scatter like dust.

Now we know better.

When the vision of this casino rose

from the flames of our council fire,

I dreamed of an eagle.

What this eagle told me...

was that our future lies here...

Ah.

With your village.

Or your neighbor... the

village you call Sulfur Falls,

across the mountain.

The eagle is cautious.

Uh, we don't understand.

What don't you understand?

Bureau of Indian Affairs,

recognition of the Alguanqua Tribe,

Federal Indian

Gaming Commission license...

and a $20 million

equity agreement.

Our casino will save

your dying town.

So don't talk to us

of the standard deal.

Your people have always given

our people the standard deal.

The standard deal blows.

You have 24 hours

to make an honorable offer,

or we go across the mountain

to Sulfur Falls.

I have chosen my gift.

- What just happened here?

- Well, we got ambushed.

So you're telling me now we're in competition

with those hicks over in Sulfur Falls?

"F" that sh*t.

We weren't prepared.

We're gonna be.

I don't think he saw

an eagle in this area.

Yeah, I thought

they were into hawks.

This Indian sh*t...

that got really

"Indiany" in here.

He might have seen

an osprey.

They were talkin' about

a dream, you F-holes.

Oh, hey. Hello.
