[Ron has just arrived in Senator Finisterre's office. In the office, is pride awards for his state, Vermont's cheese.]

Ron Goode:
You wanted to see me sir.

Senator Ortolan Finisterre:
Have a seat, Ron.

[Ron sits down in a chair in front of a desk, facing Senator Finisterre.]

Senator Ortolan Finisterre:
You see, Ron, I can't be everywhere I'm needed. That's why I send people like you to speak on my behalf. When you're there, you're not Ron Goode, a guy whom your friends probably like, you're Senator Finisterre's aide and your name really doesn't matter. So when Ron Goode acts like a complete a**hole on The Joan Lunden Show, I'm being an a**hole on The Joan Lunden Show.

Ron Goode:
Senator, sir, he sprang on me like....

Senator Ortolan Finisterre:
Where in the hell did you find Cancer Boy?

Ron Goode:
He was supposed to be quite reliable the Pulmonary Council was one of his references.

Senator Ortolan Finisterre:
F***ing non-profits! When you're looking for a cancer kid, he should be hopeless. He should have a wheelchair, he should have trouble talking, he should have a little pet goldfish in a Zip-lock bag, hopeless.

Ron Goode:
I apologize, sir, but if it wasn't for Nick Naylor-

Senator Ortolan Finisterre:
Nick Naylor? Don't you even think of using him as an excuse! The man shills bullshit for a living. You work for a f***ing senator! A senator who's supposed to be tough on tobacco. Have a little... pride, for God's sake!
