Hello.
Miss Patricia.
Yeah.
Hello.
Daddy, I'll tell you another reason why I'm calling.
I have a secret service.
And what I want you to do is have someone tell Mr. Terrence for them not to follow me in stores.
No one knows we're coming.
Nothing has ever happened.
Nothing ever will happen.
The only time that we need the secret service really is when something's been announced ahead of time.
All right.
Whenever you have an announced visit, you want them, but when you have an unannounced visit, you don't.
Just around the study or something, we just need to be able to...
Even if they just want to come within, you know, calling distance.
You watch every single mouthful you take, every single step you make, and all this.
Good people come out, but they're friendly.
And I almost need to know that you're coming to me prepared to do anything like kidnap.
Here I go.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
I can see your concern about it.
Yeah, I'll talk and see what we can work out on it that is consistent with the law and so forth.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
All right, I'll take a look at it.
