"Is that so?" "Well, that very same Mr. Jesse James... ..that you can't find at all just asked us to come and visit him." "Let's go, Bob." "Wait a minute." "$15,000." "Half before and half when it's done." "Got yourself a deal." "No more for me." "Heard you were thinkin' about a bank in Kansas, Jesse." "You don't talk business at the table, Bob." "Sorry." "Say, how'd you boys like a drink?" "Sounds good." " Don't it, Bob?" " Sure thing." "Could I have your plate, please, Jesse?" "Charlie." " Are you feelin' all right?" " She ain't real fond of the company." "Don't worry none, ladies." "Just talkin' some things over, that's all." "Can you say good night?" "Good night." "He might be carryin' a hide-out."
