A scene from Ray 2004
Ray Charles

I have a question for all of you: How would like to go on the road with me?

Margie Hendricks

Um, how much are you gonna pay us?

Ray Charles

Ahmet takes care of all of that.

Margie Hendricks

You mean he don't listen to you?

Ray Charles

You better know he does. Don't worry about it. Brother Ray will take care of all of you.

Margie Hendricks

Well my mama taught me to take care of myself, honey.

Ray Charles

Well is your mother here?

Margie Hendricks

No she's not, but I speak for us.

Ray Charles

Okay Speak For Us, how about $20 a week?

Margie Hendricks

We'll take $40. Each.

Ray Charles

$40 each?

Margie Hendricks

You heard me.

Ray Charles

Naw! How about $25?

Margie Hendricks

We'll take $30.

Ray Charles

I better say yes before you talk me out of my drawers.

Ray Charles

[The Cookies cheer and laugh]

Is it a deal?

Margie Hendricks

Oh! Yeah!

Ray Charles

From now on you guys are gonna be called the Raylettes.

Margie Hendricks

Does that mean we have to "let Ray"?

Ray Charles

Oh, what am I gonna do with you?

Margie Hendricks

I'm sure you'll think of something.
