"Did you meet him before or after... he led the expeditions through Africa?" "After." "So, were you part of the group that fought with the Contras in Argentina?" "Right." "God, I wish I'd known him then." "But I was what... seven?" "Now, that would've been very kinky." "You know what Jackson is?" "He's a man of high adventure." "It's an Indiana Jones kind of thing."

"Let's take a meeting." "You know, you guys must be record bored." "You were born with all the money you'll ever need." "Trust fund babies just want to have fun." "Does Lani know?"
