“Excuse me. I'm so sorry to interrupt in...” – Donna

Excuse me. I'm so sorry to interrupt in what obviously is a private moment between the two of you and your... two friends. We came in this morning...

G2Girl 2

We know who you are. We're not rednecks.

Okay. Well, I'm Donna Moss and this is my boss.

Josh Lyman.

Toby Ziegler.

Anyway, we're very crunched for time and we think that you...

I work at the White House.

G1Girl 1

Wow. Humongous whoop.

Come on! He's Communications Director. It's a decent sized whoop.

G2Girl 2

How many unborn babies did you guys kill today?

Whoa, hey. Danger, Will Robinson. Tyler, no fooling around. We've got 15 minutes to get to a plane that is 3 miles from here. That plane-- I swear to God-- is taking off at 1:00.

TTyler

It's taking off at 1:00?

Yes, it is.

KKiki

Are you guys stupid or something? It's 1:45 right now.

It's 12:45.

KKiki

No, not here it's not.

Oh, my God, she's right.

TTyler

See, we crossed over from Unionville to Dearborn County which doesn't observe Daylight saving time.

KKiki

I think it's the other way around, genius.

TTyler

What did I ever do to you?

It says on the schedule, "All times are local." This is why I couldn't get anyone on their cell.

Wait. Wait. No. No. You're not... We changed time zones? We changed time... We changed time zones?!

TTyler

It's a-a common mistake.

Not for the U.S. government!

What kind of schmuck-ass system could this possibly...

That's good! That's perfect!

How did...? I don't understand.

Perfect. Just the break I'm looking for.

What do...? What do...? People, they just... They reset their watches when they commute?

I can't take working here.

They just change their watches every time they cross a time zone? What is this, a joke?!

Serving my country.

Okay, this is a whole new thing now. My guys are going to need to walk this off a bit before they can regroup. Kiki, you and your friends get back to school. Tyler, you and I are going to come up with a plan to get us to a commercial airport.
