Quote context

[...]

- What was his name?

- His name was Jackson. Probably still is.

- So he gets rid of this Jackson with some flimsy excuse about cigars. And then he is alone. And then he does it.

- Does what?

- He jumps. Suicide. In which case, the company is not liable. You know that, of course.

- Now, we could go to court

- I don't know anything. In fact, I don't know why I came here.

- Just a moment, please. I said we could go to court. I didn't say we want to.

- What I want to suggest is a compromise on both sides. A settlement for a certain sum, a part of the policy value.

- Don't bother. When I came in here, I had no idea you owed me any money. You told me you did. Then you told me you didn't. Now you tell me you want to pay me a part of it, whatever it is.

- You want to bargain with me, at a time like this.

- I don't like your insinuations about my husband, and I don't like your methods. In fact, I don't like you, Mr. Norton. Goodbye, gentlemen.
