What's the most you ever lost on a coin toss?
Sir?
The most. You ever lost. On a coin toss.
I don't know. I couldn't say.
Call it.
Call it?
Yes.
For what?
Just call it.
Well, we need to know what we're calling it for here.
You need to call it. I can't call it for you. It wouldn't be fair.
I didn't put nothin' up.
Yes, you did. You've been putting it up your whole life you just didn't know it. You know what date is on this coin?
No.
1958. It's been traveling twenty-two years to get here. And now it's here. And it's either heads or tails. And you have to say. Call it.
Look, I need to know what I stand to win.
Everything. How's that? You stand to win everything. Call it.
Alright. Heads then.
Well done. Don't put it in your pocket, sir. Don't put it in your pocket. It's your lucky quarter.
Where do you want me to put it?
Anywhere not in your pocket. Where it'll get mixed in with the others and become just a coin. Which it is.
