[0:00] Hi, Rose.
[0:01] There's a couple of answers to my file.
[0:03] Julie and, uh, Julie's earlier, and Trisha's written.
[0:07] I slept under my door in the middle of the night and sat down.
[0:11] And, uh, you might be interested in reading Trisha's book.
[0:14] Okay.
[0:14] Quite a lot.
[0:15] I'll have a couple of notes.
[0:17] Oh, she was so dear to us.
[0:18] Shut up.
[0:20] Right.
[0:21] And they were talking to some private people.
[0:24] Incidentally, uh, uh, it's curious that, uh,
[0:28] people that the Reagan called.
[0:32] We haven't heard from Rockefeller or any of them.
[0:33] Well, we heard from David Rothschild.
[0:37] We got something from Rothschild before last week.
[0:41] Oh, yeah.
[0:42] Well, yesterday it was before.
[0:44] He said he had a complete faith in you.
[0:47] All right.
[0:48] Maybe that's right.
[0:49] He said that by hand, remember?
[0:51] Maybe.
[0:51] Thank you, Missy.
[0:54] All right.
[0:55] And I hope Percy doesn't get... Well, he attacked him.
[1:01] Well, he's always...
[1:03] He's always...
[1:04] He's introduced in a bell, I guess, to have a special prosecutor because this is worse than the people I don't stand on.
[1:12] The worse than the common law.
[1:14] Little bombs, you know, he's just such a little... Bill over a special prosecutor is the worst thing I've ever done.
[1:25] That's not interesting.
[1:29] I don't know how to see now.
[1:35] Here's the lock.
[1:36] Anything important?
[1:38] Oh, yeah.
[1:39] Well, here's the lock.
[1:41] Press the lock.
[1:42] I didn't put all the stuff on the lock.
[1:44] It just says here, that's what it is.
[1:47] That's it.
[1:49] Yeah.
[1:49] But don't worry about Percy.
[1:50] Percy's getting all separated.
[1:51] He can't figure it out.
[1:52] He won't get it on him.
[1:53] He'll never get it on him.
[1:54] He'll never get it on him.
[1:55] He'll never get it on him.
[1:56] He'll never get it on him.
[1:56] He'll never get it on him.
[1:57] He'll never get it on him.
[1:59] He'll never get it on him.
[2:00] He'll never get it on him.
[2:25] Most people on the inside won't spread or do whatever.
[2:29] Henry's one of the worst in that respect.
[2:32] And he also said, and I think he said it all the time since I came on in, that he said, he doesn't give an example of the Gallup Hole, my shareholder, and the people are behind you.
[2:42] Oh, the Gallup Hole.
[2:43] They had one now.
[2:45] No, I don't know.
[2:46] They had one.
[2:46] No.
[2:47] He was really great.
[2:48] He said, you just go right on, don't let it deter you.
[2:56] Oh, I thought Henry was just a kid, and he thought you'd done...
[2:59] He really almost cracked me in the knee because he thought, you know, you'd done such a marvelous job.
[3:08] I understand that for sure.
[3:10] Yeah, I love you too.
[3:12] He really did.
[3:19] He said, he...
[3:20] I have to give him that.
[3:22] There, everybody, both of you.
[3:26] Yeah, I didn't know if he gave you all of that or not, but that's what he's given me.
[3:37] And I think she made a list of people he talked to last night.
[3:44] I don't know.
[4:03] I noticed a little rainy Nixon called off off off her today.
[4:08] I know you.
[4:09] I'm not going to work with any member of the family.
[4:15] No, you shouldn't.
[4:16] Slittery.
[4:30] And I've got things back, and back when I was called back, where I was at St. John's, and where it goes out there.
[4:36] I haven't talked to Adam in a year.
[4:38] By the first he squealed about us by the prosecutor.
[4:47] Oh, sure, that was fast.
[4:52] I see you talked to some of those.
[4:54] I'd forgotten about that.
[4:54] He's coming.
[4:55] I'm going to see him for dinner this late afternoon.
[4:57] He's coming home.
[5:10] And don't watch what I've got to put in before you...
[5:57] And I think you saw me the other day, you said that to the captain, and to the captain at home.
[6:06] I said that to the captain.
[6:08] Yeah.
[6:09] No.
[6:09] Yeah, you said that to the captain at home.
[6:14] Yes.
[6:14] Well, it's... Who stands up?
[6:17] Do you remember, Rose?
[6:19] Remember when that gun dabbled and Arnold burned all the wires?
[6:23] You know, before the fight.
[6:25] Yeah.
[6:26] Well, we did a lot of work.
[6:29] No.
[6:29] Well, I know that Rocky did something, and I thought I'd have to make a change.
[6:36] He usually is supporting those works and changes.
[6:41] He's not working for that work.
