Hello.
Mr. President.
Do you finish your meeting or are you still having it?
I still have it, but it'll last another five or ten minutes.
Yeah.
Are you going out to dinner?
No, I was going to stay here.
If you want to come over, we'll give you something to eat here.
Oh, that's very nice.
Why don't you come over to the Lincoln Room just as soon as you can finish.
I'll tell him to serve it in about ten minutes.
Can you be here in ten minutes?
Can I make it fifteen?
Fifteen minutes is fine.
Good.
I'll be over in fifteen minutes.
