[Louis attacks and starts choking Billy Ray, thinking he's responsible for ruining his life]
Oh, dear!
Billy Ray
[Choking]
It … was … the … Dukes! It … was … the … Dukes!
Louis
You're a DEAD MAN, Valentine!!! [Coleman and Ophelia pull him off Valentine]
Billy Ray
[Gasping]
It was an experiment! They used us as guinea pigs, man! [Louis calms down] The Dukes used us as guinea pigs, to see how our lives would turn out. They made a bet.
Coleman
I'm afraid it's true, sir.
Ophelia
I believe him, Louie.
Louis
The Dukes … ruined my life … over a bet. For how much?
Billy Ray
A dollar.
Louis
One dollar. Fine. That's the way they want it? No problem.
