[0:26] Hello.
[0:27] Hello.
[0:27] Hello.
[0:28] Well, let me, as he agreed, though, that if he gets
[1:03] Yeah, that's what I wondered.
[1:32] It may be...
[1:33] That's right.
[1:48] Yeah.
[1:51] They do know that.
[2:01] Yeah.
[2:01] I see.
[2:01] I know about it.

[2:03] They think that Tony will object to Tony and Kennedy to limiting them to critical with them.
[2:28] Yeah, I would very agree to go on with this.

[4:31] But let's leave the others for you to post for when this is now.
[4:32] I don't want to, frankly, I don't want to interfere with either one of these kind of important things.
[4:34] Yeah.
[4:34] Yeah.
[4:34] When you come on over and I'll talk to you later and I'll see you.
[4:37] Thank you.
