Nate and Sophie in “Unfinished Business”

Sophie, where are you?

Sophie

Trying to improve the air quality standards in Massachusetts.

Okay, for corn subsidies?

Sophie

[frustrated] No, to get me the fishery concessions, that I then trade for logging rights, to get me the redistricting deal, that gets me the grant funding, that gets me the solar subsidies, that finally gets me the bloody stinking corn subsidies. I don't know how anything gets done around here. You have to be a grifter to run government.
