Well, like what?

Write a cookbook.

You chauvinist.

There's nothing that drives me up the wall

more than crusading, lady journalists.

Especially this one.

Car's just outside, professor.

Thank you, fella. Goodnight, Jean.

Um...

Robert?

Robert!

- What is it?

- Uh...

Well, could I, uh, have a lift?

Please?

You know, there is one thing I'll be

thankful for when women finally achieve

their equality. It'll give me a right

to punch you right in that nose.

- Can I get a lift?

- Get in.

Well.

What bring you to London?

You.

Me? C'mon.

Well, I'm serious. You're news.

That was no, uh...

Coincidence that you were at that

television interview, was it?

Oh, no, no. I used my charms.

Yes, I...

I remember your charms.

How long has it been?

Two years.

Two years.

It doesn't seem that long.

No, it doesn't, does it?

You've gone a long way.

I would like an interview with you.

Would you like to have dinner with me?

I'd love to have dinner with you.

I'll be staying at the Dorcester.

Uh, driver, would you drop the

lady at the Dorcester, please?

Yes, sir.

Well, I'll call you.

Good.

Goodnight.

Ciao.

Did you talk to Elliot? - What?

Elliot. Did you talk to him?

Well, of course I talked to Elliot.

- What'd you get out of him?

- Nothing.

Nothing?

Well, Charlie, he's just not a

very communicative kind of person.

And I want to know how.

- I'll try.

- Farnsworth is flying out there tomorrow.

- Who's coming in tomorrow?

- Hello?

Hello?

I can't hear a thing. Betty, would you hold that

for a minute. I just can't hear Washington...

I said, E.J. Farnsworth is coming in tomorrow.

E.J. Farnsworth.

Is coming to London?

Huh.

- The plot does thicken.

- Right.

Charlie, will you telex me everything you've

got on Farnsworth? The whole schmear?

- It's already on its way.

- Alright.

- Bye.

- Alright. Do what you can, will ya honey?

I'll try, Charlie.

Betty, get me everything you have

in the files on E.J. Farnsworth.

E.J. Farnsworth?

Oh, who's he?

Don't worry, there's no problem.

There's only one E.J. Farnsworth.

Excuse me, Mr. Farnsworth, can you fasten

your safety belt, we're about to land.

Oh, certainly, certainly. Thank you very much.

- I hope you enjoyed your trip, Mr. Farnsworth.

- Splendid, Margaret, splendid.

It was nice to have you on board, Mr. Farnsworth.

Well, thank you, Rogers. I'll be sure

to ask for you on the return trip.

Thank you. Goodbye, sir.

- Good morning, Mr. Farnsworth.

- Good morning, Christopher.

- Welcome to London.

- Thank you.

- Did you have a nice trip, sir?

- Splendid, splendid. Jolly good.

When I was a kid, they used to

say anybody can be president.
