| Right there! Right there on the ground! I just picked it up! Let me see, let me see! Holy crow! It’s Dan Rather. There he is! That’s him. Look - he was born in 1931. It expires in ’09. This is incredible, absolutely incredible, Betty. What are we gonna do? (We look around, in case we might see Dan Rather on 72nd Street or Madison.) I can’t believe that you found Dan Rather’s driver’s license, Betty. He’s a big deal, a real big deal. Just got fired, I think for giving Bush a hard time. I know. Where does he live? It says right here: 150 E 80th Street. That’s right up there, just a few blocks. Let’s go. And do what? Give it back to him, Betty. Yeah, okay, let’s go. We’ve gotta have proof for later. This is a great story, but we gotta have proof. How? Let’s copy it! Let’s find a copy machine and make a photocopy. No, they will think we stole it or something. No way. Let’s take a digital picture of it. Good idea. Hold it up to your face Betty - here, like this. Good! I feel like such a grifter. This is so strange. Okay, good! I got it! We got the proof, now let’s go find his building. (We approach Mr. Rather’s apartment building.) Betty, I think I’ll just write a note on the back of our business card and give it to the doorman. No, on second thought, I think we should just tell the doorman that we have his license and see what happens, okay? Okay! Doorman: Yes, may I help you? |
