D: "My sister unavailable, sorry, I want to sell Alice, the Deaf ghost that been haunting my home ever since I moved in."
P: "I thought I've seen it all but this is ridiculous, where is she, I can't see her, and besides what happened to her anyway?"
D: "Of course, you can't she her, she's a ghost, she drowned in our swimming pool decades ago, but been restless lately."
P: "You should have called the Ghostbusters, not bring her here."
D: "I tried but Dan Aykroyd still busy working on a sequel."
P: "OK, tell you what, I'll call my friend, he's an expert on paranormal phenomena, to make sure you aren't pulling my leg."
Friend: "I can confirm that this pawn shop, given the historic treasures lying around, is already infested with various ghosts who wouldn't give up their worldly possession in the afterlife, so she will feel right at home among her departed friends."
P: "Sorry, I can't take her in as I can put a dollar figure on her."
D: "Forget it, let's drink on it."
P: "It's a deal."
F: "The investment is well worth it as this joint never been broken into, and also you can loan them out during casting calls on the sequel."
P: "It's good business practice, keeping our ratings high, and on the air."
