MAN ON RADIO:
On the Maryland Giant,
I'm the Fryman in the morning,
and it's time for sports!
The Orioles continue
to shoot skyward
like a Saturn V.
Having locked up the
pennant over a week ago,
last night in
Municipal Stadium in
front of over 19,000.

Excuse me, sir.
Can I speak with one
of your passengers?
Sure. Go ahead.
Go in back.
I'll go back
there now.
Thanks.

Dr. Kearns?
Yes?
Sir, your family's
very concerned
about you.

The Vice President
asked me to come
to Qashington.
Yes, sir,

You should
come with us.
I suppose I could.
Hmm.

Be careful.
That's for my kids.

(ORGAN PLAYING)
REVEREND:
As I lookout over this sea
of familiar faces,
I see men from
G.M., A.M.C.,
Ford, Chrysler,
Jeep and Dodge
all under one roof,
as it should be.
And it brings to
mind the apostles.
Qhat was it that brought
these very different men
together as one?
(KIDS CHATTERING)

He was funny.
He was great.
He really was.
Can I pinch you?
No, dipshit.

Dipstick. It's an
automotive term,

Qell, say that one
more time and I will

TIM:

I turn it back off.
But now I can
barely see.

see anything, sweetie.
I can't, either.
Sweetie, turn them on.
Right now, I can't
