need some help.

0 I'm doing some more proof reading, so I'm going to post some phrases that I'm unsure about. I hope you can help me with my punctuation. Here goes.02br
02br
001."I'm terribly sorry for disturbing your meal, but once you see what i have (comma?) you'll understand. (I sense there's a comma,but I'm unsure.)02br
02br
002."Of course, but first you see(comma?) I was hoping for some sort of cash reward for my troubles."02br
02br
003."Get on with it (comma?) fool! (I'd say yes cause it's a direct address. Fool could be replaced by "mark")02br
02br
004." What do I care about other (peoples or people's ) conversations." (Basically I'm confused. Is it "peoples" or "people's")02br
02br
005."His words (comma?) not mine. I swear."02br
02br
006."You insult me(comma?) plus you want a reward for what you did."02br
02br
00Thanks for the help guys.00 0-
