It's in your office.
- But I don't have an office.
- Well, then,
there's just a bull in someone's office.
- So does this mean...
- You aren't fired, kid.
Hey, I am tough old news bird,
but what you did today,
it gave my tiny news bird heart its wings back.
Where'd you get the idea to spin that story positive?

'cause I'm such a good journalist.
Well, that's why I'm sending you to Oklahoma.

Something about you pierced my armor,
you sweaty beanbag chair of a man.
