Excerpt
"It's in your blood, like herpes. Either you got talent or you ain't."
"Like herpes?
"Yes, like it never goes away."
"I agree that herpes never goes away. But I think you are thinking of your dick."
"The hell?"
"Your dick. Where the herpes is. Herpes pops up on your dick, right? Who cares about the blood? It's the dick you've got to worry about!"
"I don't have herpes!"
"But you do have talent."
"Yeah, in my blood, too. Wanna fight about it?"
"No no, not while your blood is full of herpes."
"Herpes ain't in the blood, I agree with you there."
"And you don't have herpes, and no you don't have to drop your trousers, I believe you."
"And the talent?"
"Oh, the talent is real. You are the talent."
"Thank you. You're a true pal."
"No, I'm a true parasite."
"Which is which you're my agent."
"Which is why I'm your agent. Now level with me. Do you have herpes?"
"Yeah." Pause. "I guess that means I don't get the part."
"On the contrary. It means you were born to plays your part." Pause. Smile. "Wanna fight about it?"
Pause. Smile. "Yeah."
