[3:39:57] I think it's almost like, you know, you don't want negative ones. [3:40:02] Because, look, I agree with you. [3:40:04] You know, John Lennon, they do great flip-flops when they hear them. [3:40:09] Kennedy changed his mind. [3:40:11] All along, we said we were for it. [3:40:13] I don't know. [3:40:15] I... [3:40:50] Shut up! [3:41:33] but I'll save you two. [3:41:33] Fine. [3:41:34] Okay, we'll be calm tonight. [3:41:35] It won't be fun. [3:42:32] It occurred to me, I don't know, have we invited the Mitchells tonight? [3:42:40] Yeah, good. [3:42:42] Right.

[3:43:35] I'm going to give it to the person that's going to give it to me. [3:43:39] I don't agree with this, but I'll make it. [3:43:43] We can buy it. [3:43:44] We're free. [3:43:46] We can get lucky.
