Mr. Lundegaard? This is Reilly Diefenbach from GMAC. How are you this morning?
Jerry Lundegaard:
[into the phone]
Real good. How are you?
Reilly Diefenbach:
[voice]
Pretty good, Mr. Lundegaard. I must say, you are damn hard to get a hold of over the phone.
Jerry Lundegaard:
Well, we're pretty darn busy here, but that's the way we like it.
Reilly Diefenbach:
[voice]
Well, that's for sure. The reason why I've been trying to reach you is that these last financing documents that you sent over to us... I can't read the serial numbers of the vehicles...
Jerry Lundegaard:
[getting nervous]
Yah, well I already got the money. The loans are in place. I already got the...
Reilly Diefenbach:
[voice]
Yah, the 320 thousand... you got the money last month from us.
Jerry Lundegaard:
So, we're all set then.
Reilly Diefenbach:
[voice]
Yah, but the vehicles that you're borrowing on, I just can't read the serial numbers on your application. Maybe if you could just read...
Jerry Lundegaard:
Yah, but the deal's already done. I've already got the money.
Reilly Diefenbach:
[voice]
Yah, but we have an audit here and I just have to know that these vehicles that your financing with this money that they really exist.
Jerry Lundegaard:
[getting more nervous]
Well... they exist all right.
Reilly Diefenbach:
[voice]
Well, I'm pretty sure they do, but I can't read the serial numbers here. Maybe if you could read the numbers to me on the first...
Jerry Lundegaard:
Yah... well... see... I don't have them in front of me. Why don't I just fax you over a copy?
Reilly Diefenbach:
[voice]
No, no, a fax is no good. That's what I have here and I can't read the darn thing.
Jerry Lundegaard:
Yah, I'll have my girl send you a copy then.
Reilly Diefenbach:
[voice]
Okay, that's good. But I need to tell you that if I can't correlate these numbers with those specific vehicles, then I'm gonna have to call back all that money.
Jerry Lundegaard:
How much money did you say that was?
Reilly Diefenbach:
[voice]
$320,000. I have to correlate that money with the cars that it's being lent on.
Jerry Lundegaard:
Okay, no problem. I'll just fax...
Reilly Diefenbach:
[voice]
No, no...
Jerry Lundegaard:
I mean send it right over. I'll shoot it right over. Good bye.
