He should call.
As a matter of fact, I will see him.
Because, uh, you don't mind taking off the floor at 12, and I'll tell you when I can park you back in a few minutes.
So better make it at 12, uh, 15.
He indicated yesterday that he could have handled whatever it was on the telephone.
Unless he said something otherwise, I saw him talking to you last night.
So then, if he does call, would you have him come in together and try to say what he'd like to drop by?
Because he's seeing Mrs. Gandhi, and whether the meeting will be over or not, we'll get you on the phone in a moment.
We'll see you then.
We'd like you to visit his office.
Yes, sir.
Yes, give him a call.
And, uh, Dr. Burns, uh, you, you were just following up, and I think we did, so I agreed with you last night.
You might have to wait because I'll be talking to the scotty and it may not be true.
Would you rather talk to my phone and we can do it that way?
I don't really care.
It's a very important matter.
So call the state insurance and call them.
All right.
