• Construction Worker : Where do you think you're going? You can't come this way.

  Bill Foster : What are you doing to the street?

  Construction Worker : We're fixing it! What the hell does it look like?

  Bill Foster : Two days ago, it was fine. You're telling me the street fell apart in two days?

  Construction Worker : [sarcastically]  Well, I guess so.

  Bill Foster : Pardon me, but that's bullshit. I want to know what's wrong with the street. See, I don't think anything's wrong with the street. I think you're just trying to justify your inflated budgets.

  Construction Worker : What are you, nuts?

  Bill Foster : No, I know how it works. If you don't spend the money you have projected this year, they won't give you the same amount next year. Now I want you to admit there's nothing wrong with the street!

  Construction Worker : Fuck you, pal! Hah?

  Bill Foster : [pulls up his shirt revealing a pistol tucked under his belt]  You're not going to hold us hostage here with these yellow lights and all these big trucks.

  Construction Worker : Look, I'm just here to keep people from falling in, that's all.

  Bill Foster : I want to hear it from you. What's wrong with the street?

  Construction Worker : I don't know, I really don't know. I mean, I think it's a sewer job.

  Bill Foster : You're lying. What's wrong with the street?

  Construction Worker : Nothing.

  Bill Foster : I knew it. See, I knew it was fine. But I'll give you something to fix.

  Bill Foster : Here!
