Max Wright: Max Denby

Quotes 

• Danny Sanchez : Oh, ah, Mr. Denby! Um, ah, these are the guys I told you about from the Spanish-language newspaper that's doing an interview on me, and, ah, they want to take a picture of me and you shaking hands.

  [putting a hand out] 

  Max Denby : [Denby recoils back, flailing since Danny is sick and he's trying to avoid getting sick]  I'm not going to shake your hands, you're, you're stuffed full of germs like a virus piñata!

  Danny Sanchez : Please, sir, it's really important.

  Max Denby : No!

  [then watched the two reporters conversing in Spanish] 

  Max Denby : What's a, what's a matter? What's he saying?

  Danny Sanchez : Ah, well, they're wondering why you won't touch me. They think you harbor resentment against me because I'm an up and coming latino.

  Max Denby : That's not, that's not true. I-I-I touch Hispanics all the time! I, ah-ah - not excessive touching, you know. Just, just when they ask for it.

  [stuttering and motioning with his hands] 

  Max Denby : Tell 'em, tell 'em, tell them I, I'm not shaking your hands because you got a cold.

  [motioning to the reporters] 

  Max Denby : El dirto! Ah-ah-ah-ah, sur la mano!
