WALTER Were you listening to the story, Donny? DONNY What? WALTER Were you listening to the Dude's story? DONNY I was bowling... WALTER So you have no frame of reference, Donny. You're like a child who wanders in in the middle of a movie and wants to know... DUDE What's your point, Walter?

He's gonna be easier to find anyway than these two, uh. these two . . . And he has the wealth, uh, the resources obviously, and there is no reason, no f**kING reason, why his wife should go out and owe money and they pee on your rug. Am I wrong? DUDE No, but...
