Sam Phillips and Colonel Tom Parker in Elvis (TV miniseries)

Who do you think you are, Tom.

[smoking a cigar] Call me Colonel.

I discovered the boy. He's a raw talent. He didn't even know what he had when he first came into Sun Records. Look how far he's going.

How much further can you take him? Can you compete with RCA, with whom I've had relations over the years? Do you have the wherewithal to take him national? I have contacts in New York, Los Angeles. Music, film, television. You name it. [pause] I know you like the boy. So, I know you won't stand in the way of his dreams. [pause] You need the money, Sam. I checked.

I'll think about it, Tom.
