I just talked to Bob on one thing.

You know, the meeting you reported to me last night on, you said that the report that you had was that Garvey and Buzzard and Chappie Rose were in the meeting.

Chappie was not in the meeting at all.

He was not in it at all.

So this, of course, raises a problem for me.

You don't think so?

No, but what I mean is, how do they get the impression of chances?

But the point is, I thought

They, I think Jackie had told him he was going to leave.

Yeah.

What I'm expecting to find is that he was not empty at all.

So that's a concern for me.

Fine, please.

Fine.

All right.
