A scene from The Big Sleep 1946
Mars

Convenient the door being open when you didn't have a key.

Marlowe

Yeah, wasn't it? By the way, how did you happen to have one?

Mars

Is it any of your business?

Marlowe

I could make it my business.

Mars

I could make your business mine.

Marlowe

But you wouldn't like it. The pay's too small.

Mars

All right, I own this house. Geiger's my tenant. Now what do you think of me?

Marlowe

You know some nice people.

Mars

I take it as they come.
