XJamie: Why, Mr. Evans, what a surprise! And how is New Athens?
Evans: Ah... John, isn't it?
Jamie: Jamie, sir. I'm your secretary.
Evans: Yes, of course. Ah.. Jamie... I wonder if I could get you to do something for me?
Jamie: That's my job, sir!
Evans: I was talking to my dear friend Alistar Heinz, and he mentioned a case we're apparently handling....
Jamie: That would be the Rosen case. No need to worry, we have one of our best lawyers on it.
Evans: Um, yes, well, could he be... less than the best? Alistar was... well, it seems his father's taken the whole thing rather personally, and he's got a lot of influence with the board. Gotta keep my eye on that judge's seat, eh?
Jamie: Of course, sir! I shall make a note of it immediately!
Evans: Good, good. Thank you, ah... James...
Jamie: O heavens! How could I have accidentally deleted that important note from Mr. Evans?
Lawyer: You're a maniac, Jamie, but thank god you're our maniac.
Evans: Ah... John, isn't it?
