Mr. Ball.
Yeah.
What is that ethnic press thing that you were asking me about?
What time was that, or has that been done?
The ethnic press reception, which Alex talked to you about, sir, is at 5 o'clock, and the First Lady is hosting that.
At 5 o'clock today?
Yes, sir.
She's hosting it.
Okay, fine.
And remind me, I may be busy, but remind me.
All right, sir, fine.
