• Chet : Are you a trans or a res?

  Barton Fink : Excuse me?

  Chet : Transient or resident?

  Barton Fink : Oh, I don't know. I'll be here indefinitely.

  Chet : Res. That'll be $25.50 a week payable in advance. Checkout time is twelve sharp, but you can forget about that on account of you're a res. Now if you need anything, anything at all, just pick up your personal in-room telephone and talk to me. My name is Chet. Although we do provide privacy for the residential guests, we are also a full-service hotel including complementary shoeshine. My name is Chet.

  [writes his name on a slip of paper in capital letters with an exclamation point and passes it to Barton] 

  Barton Fink : Thanks...

• Chet : Welcome to Los Angleeees, Mr. Fink.
