Jake:
We'll put the band back together, do a few gigs, we get some bread. Bang! Five thousand bucks.

Elwood:
Yeah, well, getting the band back together might not that be that easy, Jake.

Jake:
What are you talking about?

Elwood:
They split, they all took straight jobs.

Jake:
Yeah, so you know where they are. You said you were gonna keep in touch with them.

Elwood:
Well... I got a couple of leads, a few phone numbers, but I mean, how many of them visited or even wrote you, huh?

Jake:
They're not the kinda guys who write letters. You were outside, I was inside. You were supposed to keep in touch with the band. I kept asking you if we were gonna play again.

Elwood:
Well, what was I gonna do? Take away your only hope? Take away the very thing that kept you going in there? I took the liberty of bullshitting you, okay?

Jake:
You lied to me.

Elwood:
It wasn't a lie, it was just bullshit.
