See, it's gone unchecked for a while.
Ben
Lucky it didn't cave. Lucky I stopped by when I did.
Dana Barrow
Well, and lucky for you people around here like to gossip.
Ben
That they do. Also heard you were an architect or something.
Dana Barrow
Yeah or something.
Ben
Well, maybe we should talk about money.
Dana Barrow
Well, that's a little premature.
Ben
Come again?
Dana Barrow
You haven't been hired yet.
Ben
No?
Dana Barrow
No.
Ben
There's nothing I can do to change your mind?
David Barrow
Hello.
Dana Barrow
David... uh this is my husband, David. David this is Ben Philips, Jr.
David Barrow
Yes, the legend. Hey! Nice to meet you.
Ben
Likewise.
Dana Barrow
Mr. Philips is here about the leak.
David Barrow
Right, Ben works fine. Great Ben, when can you start?
Dana Barrow
No, that's still up in the air.
Ben
Soon as you pull the trigger.
David Barrow
We should probably get on this right away babe, don't you think?
Dana Barrow
David...
Ben
The next couple of weeks are kind of busy, but I am free now.
David Barrow
What is this? This is water damage, right? Does this floor need to go?
Ben
Yes. Look we get a dehumidifier in here we can actually save most of this wood. Just say the word.
David Barrow
Great. Well, yes, we want you to start as soon as possible.
Ben
All right.
Dana Barrow
No, uh, what I would like is for Mr. Philips to come back here when it hasn't been raining for a few days, and the two of us can get upon that roof and see what's what. That way once the situation's been thoroughly and properly assessed, then we can talk about hours and materials and the scope of work in a manner that's not been pulled directly out of our asses. And what I'd also like is to agree on a deadline which if not met, means revisiting the terms of the contract with the probability of penalties paid to us by you for each day of work exceeding the original agreement. Now if that all sounds acceptable, I'll be happy to resume this conversation at a later date. But, in the meantime it was a pleasure meeting you Mr. Philips and uhm, my husband, David, will show you out. David if you wouldn't mind.
