Hello?
Fine.
Hello?
Hello, Margaret, how are you?
You're sitting there with the leaders and working on all these things all night.
I won't mean that I wish you the very best in this period between this conference and that.
And thank you for your hard work and your service to the nation.
Our parents are part of what we've been doing for the past two years.
It's okay, Mike.

Oh, thank you, Michael.
Thank you.
Bye.
