- Good, good! Hello? Hello, Blakely? How's it going, Blakely? You got that property yet?

- Well, I'm having a little trouble. I've got all twelve blocks except one house... 25 foot front... and the man won't sell.

- Well, make him sell! Those twelve blocks are useless unless I can buy every inch!

- Well, I'm trying, but the old man's a crank. I offered him fifty thousand yesterday and he turned it down.

- I tried to get him in here today to talk some sense into him, but I don't know.

- You don't know? You listen to me! I don't want any excuses! I want his house!

- And remember this: unless you buy the whole twelve blocks, you don't get a penny commission! Goodbye!
