- The Dude wakes up. His jaw is bruised, his stolen rug is gone, and he's being paged on his ancient beeper. The person paging him is Brandt.
- Back at the Lebowski mansion, Brandt gives The Dude a briefcase containing the money and a giant "portable" phone, one of the iPhone's great-great-great grandparents.
- The kidnappers were explicit—only one person does the hand-off.
- "Her life is in your hands," Brandt says.
- "Aw, don't say that, man," The Dude says. Way too much pressure.
