ROBERTO: (Tremendo) Por favor. Não coma isso perto de mim.
TICO: Que foi, tô com fome.
ROBERTO: A maionese... está escorrendo. Você está contaminando a área de operación. Nós estamos "ensaboados" aqui, Tico. Se você derrubar uma gota, a polícia vai ver o rastro de gordura e nós todos vamos ser enxaguados direto para a prisão.

VALDO: Você tá amarrado, idiota.
ROBERTO: Me desamarra, me dá o esfregão, e eu garanto que ninguém vai notar que dois seqüestradores incompetentes estão escondidos numa lavanderia. Olha para esse chão. É um atentado à saúde pública. Me deixem resolver isso.
(Pausa. Valdo olha para Tico. Tico olha para o sanduíche.)
TICO: Ele tem razão, Valdo. O chão tá uma porcaria.
