A middle-aged man, one
which Fernando had not seen before, enters the Dominion one afternoon
not long after opening time. “Hey, do you sell copies of movies?”
“How do you mean?”
“If I pay you can you
make a copy of a movie for me.”
“Sorry. I enjoy staying
out of debtor's prison.” Yes, Fernando knows that such a thing does
not exist anymore. No, that did not stop him from invoking it.
Fernando's response in
the negative does not dissuade his patron. “Do you know any place
that does?”
“No, sorry. I try not
to associate with people who knowingly violate copyright law and I
reckon most people in the business feel similarly.”
“So what am I supposed
to do?”
“Renting it comes to
mind. That way you can enjoy the movie without dedicating fifteen or
twenty dollars towards owning it.”
The man makes a
disgruntled chuff, flails an arm and hand towards Fernando
dismissively, and walks out.
