A Dispute Over Puppies and Money
Anita Cruella, the puppies have to be with their mother for several weeks. They're not ready to leave.
Cruella Fine. Put the little brutes on reserve for me. How much would you like?
Roger They're not for sale.
Cruella Oh? You've come into some money, have you? Did you design some silly game that will drive the delinquent kiddies into frenzies of video delight?
Roger As a matter of fact, I have...
Anita No, no, what Roger means to say is that we're not sure we're going to sell the puppies.
Cruella Anita, don't be ridiculous! You can't possibly afford to keep them. I'll pay you twice what they're worth. Come now. I'm being more than generous. £500! £7,500! Fair? £2 per spot.

You'll never work in fashion again! I'm through with all of you! I'll get even! Just wait! You'll be sorry, you fools! You idiots!
