Evelyn 'Angel' Martin : [Rockford's Firebird pulls up in front of a dilapidated bungalow somewhere outside of L.A. He and Angel climb out, Angel talking with enthusiasm] Huh? What do you say? Is this what you asked for? Huh?
[He laughs excitedly]
Jim Rockford : Yeah, perfect... I couldn't have done better myself. How much?
Evelyn 'Angel' Martin : Look at that. You said no neighbors, right? Well, right over here is an empty lot and right on this side is an empty house, huh?
Jim Rockford : All right, Angel, how much?
Evelyn 'Angel' Martin : Listen, I got all the papers here, and all signed legal... binding...
Jim Rockford : [sounding testy] Angel...
Evelyn 'Angel' Martin : Well, you know, Willie wasn't in love with the idea of renting it in the first place. Well, I mean a man's home is, uh... you know. But it's cause, you were friends at Quentin... he said to say hi.
Jim Rockford : [Impatiently] Hi... how much?
Evelyn 'Angel' Martin : [Uneasily] Ah... A hundred a day...
Jim Rockford : Angel! A hundred dollars a day for that chicken shed!
Evelyn 'Angel' Martin : [Defensively] You said it was perfect! The key is under the mat!
Jim Rockford : [sighing he reaches inside his jacket for his wallet] All right, Angel... If I had the time I'd go rent one on my own, but I don't have the time. If I did I would, but you got yourself a deal, huh.
[He hands a couple of fifties to his friend]
Jim Rockford : Now I'm going to remember it... And when this whole thing is over I'm going to have a little talk with Willie. See how much of that hundred sticks to your greedy little fingers, and then he's going to remember it.
[He climbs into his car]
Evelyn 'Angel' Martin : [Nervously] Jimmy, you don't have to talk to Willie...
[Rockford starts the car]
Evelyn 'Angel' Martin : Jimmy!
[Rockford puts his foot to the accelerator]
Evelyn 'Angel' Martin : Jimmy! Hey Jimmy! I don't have a car!
[He watches as Rockford drives off leaving him abandoned on the curb miles from L.A]

Evelyn 'Angel' Martin : Jimmy, Jimmy, just let me talk to you. Are you mad, huh?
Jim Rockford : You have a gift for understatement, Angel.
