George Garea
- Bartender: Are you guys new in the neighborhood?
- Ben: Are you kidding? There was a famous "sip in" right here in this bar to challenge the New York State regulation that prohibited bars from serving homosexuals.
- Bartender: Yeah, we have a clipping from The New York Times framed here somewhere.
- Ben: 1966. Me and four other guys, we came in here accompanied by five reporters. When we were denied service, we denounced the State Liquor Authority.
- Bartender: Oh my God. You're that guy?
- Ben: Yeah, I was one of the guys.
- Bartender: Wow. Well, this round's on me, fellas.
- [Ben and George start laughing as soon as the bartender leaves]
- George: You are such a liar!
- Ben: What?
- George: You'll do anything for a free drink!
- Ben: Well, I knew the guy who thought it up.
- George: Who, Frank?
- Ben: Yeah. That was his claim to fame.
- George: Oh, I thought his claim to fame was something entirely different.
- Ben: Well, that too.
- [both start laughing even harder]
- Ben: What did you think of the Wieniawski?
- George: Not bad. I thought she milked it a bit.
- Ben: You think so?
- George: Well, when the piece is that romantic, there's no need to embellish.
- Ben: Oh. I don't know. I loved it. I kept thinking about him and his beloved Isabella.
- George: Oh yeah? But that's not true. You know that whole "he composed it to convince her parents to let him marry her," it's a myth.
- Ben: I'm not like you. I prefer a little embellishment.
