Mayor:
[the clock's ticking, and the mayor's sitting - wrapped in a blanket, sneezing - as his deputy Mayor polls The head of NYPD, the head of the Transit Authority, and the city comptroller]
All right, Al, you've heard from the '3 Wise Men'. Now, what do you say?
Mayor:
What are they goin' to say, Warren?
[behind the mayor, sits his wife, nodding in agreement]

Mayor:
'They', who?
Mayor:
Who? Everybody! The press, the man on the street!
Mayor's wife:
He means the voters.
[the mayor sneezes, and blows his nose into a tissue]

Deputy Mayor Warren LaSalle:
You know what they'll say: The Times will support you. The News will knock you. The Post will take both sides at the sane time. The rich'll support you, likewise the blacks. The Puerto Ricans wont give a shit, so, come on, Al - stop stalling!
Mayor:
And, you stop bullyin' everybody, Warren! This is supposed to be a democracy!
Mayor:
Wise up, for chris' sakes! We're trying to run a city - not a god damn 'democracy'!
[the Mayor looks confused]

Mayor:
Al, quit fartin' around! We've gotta pay!
Mayor's wife:
[THe mayor quietly says his wife's name]
Jessie?
Mayor's wife:
Hmmm?
Mayor:
Jessie, what do you say?
Mayor's wife:
I know a million dollars sounds like a lot of money. But, just think what you're gonna get in return.
Mayor:
[Al thinks for a moment]
What?
Mayor's wife:
18 sure votes.
Mayor:
Allright. All right. Warren? Warren; arrange for the payoff
Deputy Mayor Warren LaSalle:
Hallelujah!
