ABRAM: Hey, are you biting your thumb at us?
SAMPSON: (Is the law on our side if I say "yes?")
GREGORY: (No.)
SAMPSON: No sir, I'm not biting my thumb at you, sir, but I am biting my thumb sir.
GREGORY: Hey, are you trying to start a fight?
ABRAM: Start a fight? No sir.
SAMPSON: If you want a fight, I'm your man. My master's as good as yours.
ABRAM: But not better than mine.
SAMPSON: Well, then.
GREGORY: (Say "better." Here comes one of our employer's relatives.)
SAMPSON: Yes, "better," sir.
ABRAM: You lie!
