[[The man man hands WBM a business card. WBM takes it and hands the man another business card. WBM has put his suitcase on the floor.]]
Man: You should check us out! Here's my card.
White Beret: Here's mine! -- Networking!
[[The man takes a closer look at the card, and WBM holds up his case.]]
Man: ...This just says "This is my business card!"
White Beret: Do you like it? I have more in my handlebox.
[[WBM puts his case on a table and opens it to reveal it is full of cash. The man looks on in shock.]]
Man: Uh, that's ok, I think I'll--
White Beret: Here, have ten of them!
Man: --holy shit that thing is full of
cash!
[[The man raises his arms in excitement. WBM turns to face him and chews on something.]]

Man: That's like a quarter of a million dollars!
