"This is getting a little weird." "I think I should just go." "No. this'll just take a second." "No." "Listen." "she obviously has a problem." "Why don't you figure out what it is and call me tomorrow?" "From a secure location." "Unbelievable." "Oh." "Don't put this on me." "You screwed this up." "If you would've just stuck to the master plan" "Stop mentioning the plan." "There is no plan!" "Don't say "master." don't say "plan.""
