| 2.20 THE FALL'S GONNA KILL YA |
| SAM: We have less money? AIDE: Isn’t it great? CJ: I’ll tell ya what else. 1 in 40 American men wear women’s clothing, and we’ve had more than 40 presidents. OLIVER: Yeah. CJ: I’m just sayin’ one of these guys was dancing around the oval office in a prom dress, now let’s get to the bottom of THAT. TOBY: He calls us the Batman and Robin of speechwriting. SAM: I don’t think he does, but okay. TOBY: He doesn’t, but he should, ‘cause that’s what we are. SAM: Okay. TOBY: We’re Batman and Robin. SAM: Which one’s which? TOBY: Look at me Sam – you think I’m Robin? SAM: I’m not Robin. TOBY: I’m so happy I could spit. SAM: This is really the first administration in history to favour SLOWER economic growth. DONNA: A thing the size of a garbage truck is gonna be in a 2000 mph freefall and no one knows where it’s gonna hit! CHARLIE: I’m rooting for Zurich. DONNA: Charlie- CHARLIE: I’ve had it up to here with the Swiss. SAM: Henry, last fall every time your boss got on the stump and said “it’s time for the rich to pay their fair share”, I hid under a couch and changed my name. I left Gage Whitney making 400,000 a year, which means I paid 27 times the national average in Income Tax. I paid my fair share – and the fair share of 26 other people – and I’m happy to because that’s the only way it works. And it’s in my best interest to be sure everyone’s able to go to school, but I don’t get 27 votes on Election Day. The fire trucks don’t come to my house 27 times faster and the water doesn’t come out of the faucet 27 times hotter. The top 1% of wage-earners in this country pay for 22% OF this country. Let’s not call them names while they’re doing it is all I’m saying. JOSH: Pretty good-looking for an interpreter. JOEY: Pretty good-looking for anybody. ABBY: How was your day? CJ: Well, I got pretty much bitch-slapped by the White House Counsel, ma’am, how ‘bout you? CJ: The president has this disease and has been lying about it and you guys are afraid the POLLING’S gonna make you look bad? It’s the fall that’s gonna kill ya! |
