Sol Sussman:
[Sol is in his den, on the phone, pleading with a money lender of apparently dubious character. Bootsie, the maid, passes by in an adjoining hallway and begins to eavesdrop the conversation]
There were extenuating circumstances... Well, you're not in the movie business so you wouldn't understand. These things were beyond my control... What?
Sol Sussman:
-
[Bootsie, still eavesdropping, enters one of the nearby doors to get closer to Sol's den. Sol's agitated phone conversation continues]

Sol Sussman:
It's impossible... You gotta' give me... You gotta'... Please! Oh, God...
Sol Sussman:
[the sound of the phone receiver slamming down is heard]
Oh my God!... Oh my God!... Oh my God!... Oh my God!...
Bootsie Carp:
[Alarmed at hearing Sol in obvious distress, Bootsie enters his den]
Are you sick, Mr. S? Should I call Dr. Mendell?
Sol Sussman:
No, no... Nathan Mendell I don't need.
Bootsie Carp:
[Sitting down in front of his desk]
Talk to Bootsie. Let her help.
Sol Sussman:
-
[Confused and despondent]

Sol Sussman:
I... I... I'm out of date. I'm out of touch. My kind of movies' pleas for tolerance of the Jew or the Negro or the immigrant Italian are made a mockery of today. These kids in the beards, they seek to tear down the Establishment. When the fuck did I become the Establishment?
Sol Sussman:
[Sympathetically]
You're a great man, Mr. S.
Sol Sussman:
[Agitated]
I'm finished. I'm kaput! Bootsie, the only way I could finance this film was to borrow money from... "less than reputable" associates.
Bootsie Carp:
[Slightly shocked]
The "Mob"?
Sol Sussman:
The gods have turned against me. The rotten weather, an actress dying and... now the film has fallen apart. They're threatening to give me a bath in cement if I don't pay up! Bootsie, you're lookin' at a corpse.
Bootsie Carp:
[Solemnly quoting Biblical scripture]
"He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty." Proverbs, 16.
Sol Sussman:
It's Angela. She's a witch! She put a curse on me! Oh, God! Oh, God! God, God, God, God...
[Sol breaks down, sobbing and wailing. Bootsie goes over to console him in her arms]
