I suppose you just have to find the people that exist.
And the largest group is Ray Rice.
Well, his, I'll sit down with him then.
That's the last one.
Yeah, it'll take 45 minutes.
None of these people are expecting anything out of him?
Yeah.
I don't know.
Just go wherever you stand up and have a picture with him.
Is that what you're pulling?
That's right.
Would you like to give him the new items?
Yes.
The complex.
Do we have...
are all of them married?
Do we know any of them or what?
I suppose some of them are just a crossover.
I don't know.
They don't bother.
They don't care.
The only one is, as you did mention, Mary Ann Allen was in his first group.
Works for Roland Elliott.
He's married to more Allen.
That's the only thing I'm sorry to ask.
Who just gave them?
Without any of their wives.
Who just gave them to you?
Sure.
But we'll just take a group photograph.
Fine, fine, fine.
If you're all ready.
Sure.
