C.J. and Danny in “Take Out the Trash Day”

If you call Mr. and Mrs. Lydell in St. Paul and ask them why...

Don't.

Look...

Don't leak me a story.

I wasn't.

I've seen this look on the face of four other press secretaries before you. You've got a story in the trash this week that's a story, you want it out there and someone said, "No."

They're all stories this week.

That happens sometimes.

Four other press secretaries and you never took a free lead?

I always took a free lead.

Then...

Not from you.

Why?

Cause twenty minutes from now, you're gonna remember you're a professional and you're not gonna like me anymore.

What makes you think I like you now?

I don't know. But, as long as you keep grabbing me and kissing me, what the hell do I care?

Good point.

If there's a story, I'll find it.

No, you won't.

How do you know?

Cause we've gotten very good at this.

Yes, you have.

C.J. Yes, we have.
