MASON:

(face off) Art.

LEWIS:

Morning, Mason. Two large coffees to go,

okay?

MASON:

(off) All right.

PAPPAS:

So, Mason, last Wednesday night,

uh...were you out...

PAPPAS:

(off) ...uh, drifting around like the

trash you are, or were you here workin'?

MASON:

If it was Wednesday night, I was workin'.

PAPPAS:

(face off) Do you recognize this young

man?

MASON:

Nope. (grunts) Is there a prob-...

MASON:

(off) ...-lem?

PAPPAS:

You find yourself wearing a...

PAPPAS:

(off) ...badge someday, then you can ask

the questions. Until then...

PAPPAS:

(off) ...you answer mine.

PAPPAS:

(off) Got that?

PAPPAS:

So you don't remember...

PAPPAS:

(off) ...selling this young man beer

Wednesday night.

MASON:

I don't sell beer to minors. I take that

kinda thing...

MASON:

(off) ...seriously.

PAPPAS:

(chuckles) That's not the way I...

PAPPAS:

(off) ...hear it. As a matter of fact--

LEWIS:

(interrupting) Take it easy, Pappas. (to

Mason) Mason, this boy says you did sell

him beer...

LEWIS:

(face off) ...that night.

MASON:

Yeah. Well, he's lyin'.

PAPPAS:

Lying? (chuckles)

PAPPAS:

(off) Mason, you wouldn't know the truth

if it bit you. We've got your whole

record. (chuckles) We know about the-the

conviction for vagrancy...

PAPPAS:

...public drunkenness....

MASON:

I didn't sell the boy any...

MASON:

(face off) ...beer.

PAPPAS:

Shut your mouth until I tell you...

PAPPAS:

(off) ...to talk, son.

MASON:

You know, I gotta tell you. That really

bothers me, somebody calls me "son."

PAPPAS:

Then how about if I call you "ass-...

PAPPAS:

(off) ...-hole"?

LEWIS:

(off) All right, both of...

LEWIS:

(off) ...you, just cool off.

LEWIS:

(off) Look, Ma-...

LEWIS:

...-son, maybe the kid showed you a fake

I.D. or, uh, you forgot to check.

MASON:

I didn't forget to check, and I know how

to spot a fake I.D.

MASON:

Especially from a little geek like

that...

MASON:

(off) ...kid.

PAPPAS:

That little geek is my...

PAPPAS:

(off) ...son.

LEWIS:

(off) All right. (grunts) Enough.

Look...

LEWIS:

...Mason, I don't wanna hear about you

sellin'...

LEWIS:

...alcohol to minors.

MASON:

(overlapping) I didn't sell any alcohol

to any--

LEWIS:

(interrupting) I'm not saying you did.

Just don't, okay? You make sure you keep

your nose clean, we won't have any

problems. (to Pappas) Let's go, Pappas.

LEWIS:

I said let's...

LEWIS:

(off) ...go.

PAPPAS:

You got a prob-...

PAPPAS:

(off) ...-lem too?

ARLO:

No, sir. I've never seen this guy

before.

PAPPAS:

(chuckles)

ARLO:

Sure as hell have met a few a**holes like

that, though.

ARLO:

(off) (chuckles) (on) You gotta learn to

lighten up when the man's in your face.

MASON:

That's my business.

ARLO:

No argument there.
