Sam: Oh, uh, John, you know, I... Listen, I really don't think so.
John: Oh. Well, fine. Uh, oh, by the way I... I think this will amuse you, Sam. In looking at the property map that came with my title deed, it appears that the area beyond that hallway actually belongs to me.
Sam: Oh, no, no, John. That's, uh that's the pool room, and those are our bathrooms.
John: No, no, no. Look here. You see? Apparently, it was Melville's old storage basement.
Sam: Uh-huh, uh-huh.

Sam: [laughs weakly] That's- That's very funny. Um... so, do we still get to use it?
John: Of course! We're neighbors. Neighbors help each other.

John: Well, that's very thoughtful of you, Sam.
