Gene Watson: The gun is real.

Mystery Man: [the mystery man scoffs] Well, it certainly looks real.

Mystery Man: [as the mystery man looks over to the corner of the room] May we have your opinion?

Mystery Man: [the mystery man then hands over the gun to Mr. Smith] You're supposed to be the expert in these matters.
