The Banker Quotes in Mousehunt (1997)

[the Smuntzes get covered in sewage in trying to suck up the mouse with a vacuum, only to get it attached to the sewage line. Meanwhile, they also receive a notice from the bank about the house being foreclosed]

Ernie: [seeing the notice] What's this?

The Banker: We're foreclosing on your house. You quit paying your mortgage.

Ernie: Oh, wait a minute, I think there's been some mistake. This house is paid for.

The Banker: No, it *was* paid for, but you borrowed against it. If you don't pay the $1,200 overdue, we repossess it.

Lars: [in disbelief] Twelve hundred dollars?

Ernie: How long do we have?

The Banker: One week from, uh, five days ago.

Ernie: [shocked] That's two days! Look, we don't have the time or the energy to deal with these petty problems now. We're in the midst of an extensive renovation.

The Banker: [noticing that they're covered in sewage] Looks like you're off to a great start.

The Banker: A tragic loss serves to put lesser matters in their proper perspective.
