Right up here at the first gas station is Tropicana, take a right.

Att'y: Tropicana to the right.

Lou: The first gas station is Tropicana. Take a right on Tropicana and take this way… right on Tropicana, right on Paradice, you'll see a big black building, it's all painted black real weird looking.

Att'y: Right on Tropicana, right on Paradise, black building…

Lou: And there's a sign on the side of the building that says Psychiatrist's Club, but they're completely remodeling it and everything.

Att’y: All right, that's close enough

Lou: If there's anything I can do for ya, honey… I don't know if that's even it or not. But it sounds like it is. I think you boys are on the right track.

Att'y: Right. That's the best lead we've had for two days, we've been asking people all around.

Att'y: Could you?

Lou: Sure I'll call Allen and ask him.

Lou: Well, that's not it, that bartender in there is a pothead too…

Att'y: Yeah, well, it's a lead.

Lou: You gonna be glad you stopped here, boys.

Duke: Only if we find it.

Att'y: Only if we write the article and get it in.

Duke: Oh. OK, well, let's go inside.
