Quote context

[...]

- Yeah. A porter on a climb they were making was stealing some food.

- He killed him with a knife. Isn't that something?

- Sounds like a real charmer.

- Guts, skill, determination, all that sort of stuff.

- Hey, why don't we just call it a climb the way it is and take the escalator down?

- Okay, give me some slack.

- You gonna stand up there all day admiring yourself? Or are you gonna bring me up?

- Congratulations, old buddy. You got her cherry.

- What do you mean?

- You're the first one ever to climb up here.

- Well, you climbed it yourself, you told me.
