Who are you? What do you want? What business is it of yours anyway? Norma Desmond:

[grabbing the phone from Norma]
That's right, Betty. Ask me again. This is Joe. Betty Schaefer:
Joe, where are you? What is this all about? Joe Gillis:
Well, better yet, why don't you come out and see for yourself? The address is 10086 Sunset Boulevard
