[In the hospital, Martin walks over to Larry]

I'm sorry, I'm truly sorry.

[pulls Larry aside]

You got a pen, Larry?

A pen?

Yeah, a pen! You know. 'Cause you're gonna do what you do best: you're gonna sign this voucher so I can hire a contractor.

I don't think I can do that without-

I'm gonna hire Quint to kill the shark!

[nods, and starts to think]

August, August...

August? What are you talking about? Larry, summer's over. You're the mayor of "Shark City!" These people think you want the beaches open!

I was-I was acting-in the town's best interest-

That's right! You were! You were acting in the town's best interest, and that's why you're gonna do the right thing! That's why you're gonna sign this, and we're gonna pay that guy what he wants!

Martin...Martin, my kids were on that beach, too.

Sign it, Larry.
[Larry signs it, and Martin walks out]
