FORTIER:

Edie brought us your proposal and I'll be

honest. We're very impressed. A bit

skeptical, I must admit, but impressed.

KEATON:

Skeptical.

RENAULT:

We find the concept brilliant, but New

York is difficult for new restaurants.

How can we be certain that our money will

be returned in the long run?

Keaton looks at Edie and smiles confidently.

KEATON:

It's simple gentlemen, design

versatility. A restaurant that can change

with taste without losing the overall

aesthetic. Our atmosphere won't be

painted on the walls.

FORTIER:

This was the part of the proposal that

intrigued us, but I'm not sure I follow.

KEATON:

Let's say for example -

VOICE (O.S.)

This I had to see myself.

Keaton looks up. He sees David Kujan. Behind him are the very

serious looking guys in suits.

Keaton is not happy to see them.

KEATON:

Dave. I'm in a meeting.

KUJAN:

Time for another one.

KEATON:

This is my attorney, Edie Finneran.

KEATON (cont'd)

This is Mr. Renault and Mr. Fortier.

Everyone, this is David Kujan.

KUJAN:

Special Agent Kujan. U.S. Customs.

(Gestures to men behind him)

These gentlemen are with the New York

police department. You look great,

Keaton. Better than I would have thought.
