Well, as promised, I will stay on until I can find a more qualified and experienced replacement.
I don't want experience. I want someone that I can trust, Speedy, and that person is you.
I messed up Ollie. Big time.
[secretary opens door and Oliver nods at her]
No, Thea, you didn't. Follow me.
[Oliver walks out to address a press conference]
Thank you all for coming. I'd like to address head-on, and with brutal honesty, some of the recent reports regarding my administration. Reports that suggest that while voters may have elected me, others have been making decisions in my stead. Truth of the matter is, that every decision made by any member of my administration is my decision. The buck, as they say, stops with me. Because when you are in charge, everything that your team does is on you, and I trust my team. [Quentin walks in from a side room] That team will be include former police captain Quentin Lance, who'll be serving beside me as Deputy Mayor.
I appreciate the vote of confidence, Mr. Mayor.
You're the right man for the job. Trust me.
