(Blackfoot) Ben, why do you look so unhappy? You are a child, enjoy life.

            (Ben) Grandfather, I keep thinking of a monster that will kill our people.
            (Blackfoot) What monster? (Ben) He’s evil. I don’t know why or how, but
            he’s going to come and get me if I’m not ready, and I’m not.


                At that moment, Ben runs and hugs his grandfather and Tracey.


                                Switch to Mike and Yoshi at the auction.


            (Mike) Yoshi, you know the drill. Sign up and we’ll play good guy bad guy

            game. (Yoshi) Let’s do it. (Mike) This is the plan: I’m signed up already,
            so remember, you have to sign up as a guest of the Kelly Corp. and then
            we’ll block all bids. (Yoshi) Mike, you’re a whiz at this. I worry about your

            cunning. Mr. Goza thinks that this deal will take 4 to 7 days to secure and
            we’ll  have  it  done  within  a  matter  of  hours.  If  I  know  you  we’ll  be

            someplace far out of sight by the a.m., with two fine ladies. Am I right?
            (Mike) Would you put your dick away for a moment – we have work to do
            here.


              At that moment, they go to register and Yoshi is told he can’t buy
               any land due to the US block on how much land the Japanese can

                                                      purchase.

            (Auctioneer) Good afternoon, sir, and welcome. Please sign here and list
            your host. He signs. (Auctioneer) I’m sorry, Mr. Kim, but this auction is

            only for US companies. (Yoshi) What are you telling me? (Auctioneer) I’m
            very sorry sir, but we can’t allow you to buy any land for auction today.

            (Yoshi)  Then  page  a  Mr.  Kelly  of  the  Kelly  Corporation.  This  is
            unacceptable.  I’ve  come  all  the  way  from  Japan  to  hear  some  two-bit
            minimum wage nobody tell me my money isn’t welcome?


                               At that moment, Mike walks into the scene


            (Mike) What’s the hold up? Sign it and let’s go. (Yoshi) This person has

            informed  me  that  no  Japanese  are  allowed  to  bid  on  the  site  today.
            (Mike) What kind of fucking prejudice is this? How could you say this?

            (Auctioneer)  I’m  sorry.  I  didn’t  set  the  policy,  I’m  just  doing  my  job.
