George and Jerry are in Jerry's apartment.
George: I still don't understand this. Abby has a mentor?
Jerry: Yes. And the mentor advises the protege.
George: Is there any money involved?
Jerry: No.
George: So what's in it for the mentor?
Jerry: Respect, admiration, prestige.
George: Pssh. Would the protege pick up stuff for the mentor?
Jerry: I suppose if it was on the protege's way to the mentor, they might.
George: Laundry? Dry cleaning?
Jerry: It's not a valet, it's a protege.
