Michael MacCauley: So, I heard something earlier today, a hypothetical question.
Tony: Uh-huh. What was the question?
Michael MacCauley: What if someone asked you to do one little thing, something that's meaningless to you, but would affect another passenger on this train? Would you do it?
Tony: I don't know. What's in it for me?
Michael MacCauley: $100,000.
Tony: Absolutely!
Michael MacCauley: You don't even know what it is.
Tony: It doesn't matter. Come on.
Jackson: So, what is that one little thing?
Michael MacCauley: A passenger on this train doesn't belong. They're carrying a bag, but you don't know what it looks like. All you have to do is find them before they get off.
Tony: That's it? It's not much to go on, Mike.
Michael MacCauley: Tell me about it.
Jackson: And what happens when you find 'em?
Michael MacCauley: They die. Hypothetically.
Tony: So what would you do, Mike?
Michael MacCauley: I'd get all the people left on the train in one car, propose that very scenario.
Tony: No, no, no, no, no. I mean, would you take the money?
Michael MacCauley: You know what? I already did.

Tony: Hey, Mike, what happened to the guy with the guitar?
Michael MacCauley: He got off.
