Rastafarian : You're looking for Dédé, man?
Richard Walker : Yeah. You know him?
Rastafarian : Sure, man. You don't look like you know him.
Richard Walker : What am I supposed to look like?
Rastafarian : Desperate, man.
Richard Walker : Well, I'm desperate.
Rastafarian : So where are you from, man? New York?
Richard Walker : San Francisco.
Rastafarian : Much better, man.
Richard Walker : Yeah.
Rastafarian : North Beach. Much, much better, man. Many places to dance.
[singing]
Rastafarian : "If you go to San Francisco, be sure to wear a flower in your hair". Come on, man. Buy me a Kahlua and tell Jack your desperate troubles.
Richard Walker : All I really need, man, is, uh, Dédé.
Rastafarian : All the boys and girls are looking for Dédé these days. But Dédé's been gone, you know, two nights.
Richard Walker : Yeah, but where?
Rastafarian : Man, why not say what you're looking for? Dédé is not the only one who can show you.
Richard Walker : Why don't you tell me what I'm looking for?
Rastafarian : The white lady. Isn't that so?
Richard Walker : Yes.
Rastafarian : Heavy. Now I see the desperate man.
Richard Walker : Is she all right?
Rastafarian : Beautiful, man. Nobody has touched the lady. You don't worry, man. Follow me.

Richard Walker : Where is she?
Rastafarian : Cool, man. No one has so much as stepped on her toe. She's here, man. And pure as the driven snow. C'mon, give it a try.
[shows a paper with cocaine]
Rastafarian : Do a one-on-one and tell me if I lie. Come on, man. The nose knows.
[Walker tries it]
Rastafarian : The white lady. Pure white. Good, not true? 600 Francs. You don't need Dédé, man.
