Have Gun - Will Travel (TV Series)

Face of a Shadow (1963)

William Woodson: Craft

Quotes 

• Craft : Obviously, Mr Paladin, a bank teller isn't qualified for such a job. Do you think you could manage to leave in the morning for Immigrant Valley?

  [Hey Boy is sitting on the floor next to Paladin ostensibly polishing Palaidin's top hat but is nodding as to Paladin's availability and ability] 

  Paladin : Mr Tidner, if Dan Craft wants $10,000 delivered safely to your bank, why doesn't he send it by stagecoach?

  Craft : Doesn't trust them. He'll deal only with a bona fide representative of the bank. We hold title to the tract of land he's buying.

  Paladin : Very well, Mr Craft. Will you see there's a credit of $500 to my account by morning.

  [Hey Boy is fascinated by the transaction and looks from one to the other] 

  Craft : Five-hundred?

  Paladin : Now if you were to bargain with me, the price will go up proportionately. And I had intended to go to the opera tonight anyway.

  [He puts his top hat on as he stands] 

  Craft : Five hundred. Yes, Mr Paladin. Right. Thank you very much. All the papers, self-explanatory. Two signatures. Thank you. Five hundred dollars.

  [Paladin removes his top hat and Hey Boy smiles with glee]
