We've been expecting you. As chairwoman of the reception committee, I extend the wishes of every man, woman, and child of Freedonia. Firefly: Never mind that stuff. Take a card. Mrs. Teasdale: Card? What will I do with the card? Firefly: You can keep it. I've got fifty-one left. Now what were you saying? Mrs. Teasdale: As chairwoman of the reception committee, I welcome you with open arms. Firefly: Is that so? How late do you stay open? Mrs. Teasdale: I've sponsored your appointment because I feel you are the most able statesman in all Freedonia. Firefly: Well, that covers a lot of ground. Say! You cover a lot of ground yourself. You'd better beat it. I hear they're gonna tear you down and put up an office building where you're standing. You can leave in a taxi. If you can't get a taxi, you can leave in a huff. If that's too soon, you can leave in a minute and a huff. You know, you haven't stopped talking since I came here. You must have been vaccinated with a phonograph needle. Mrs. Teasdale: Oh, your Excellency. We’ve been expecting you.
