Ferrari You haven't heard my offer.
It's not for sale at any price.
Ferrari What do you want for Sam?
I don't buy or sell human beings.
Ferrari Too bad. That's Casablanca's leading commodity. In refugees alone, we could make a fortune, if you work with me through the black market.
Suppose you run your business and let me run mine.
Ferrari Suppose we ask Sam. Maybe he'd like to make a change?
Suppose we do.
Ferrari My dear Rick, when will you realize that in this world, today, isolationism is no longer a practical policy?
Ferrari I observe that you are in one respect a very fortunate man, Monsieur. I am moved to make one more suggestion, why, I do not know, because it cannot possibly profit me. Have you heard about Senor Ugarte and the letters of transit?
Yes, something.
Ferrari Those letters were not found on Ugarte when they arrested him.
Do you know where they are?
Ferrari Not for sure, Monsieur, but I will venture to guess that Ugarte left those letters with Monsieur Rick.
Rick?
Ferrari He's a difficult customer, that Rick. One never knows what he'll do or why, but it is worth a chance.
