I'm going that way, anyway.

Is this music all right with you?

- 'Cause I can change it.

It's all bought and paid for. We own it.

Don't say "we."

You own it.

I didn't buy it.

Yeah, well...

I wouldn't have bought no gas station.

Is that right?

I would've stuck to what I knew best.

- What's that?
