(beat)
He’s been looking to take on something big since getting here, and uh, well-I-mean-you’ve-done-a-lot-of-our reviews lately, so we figured it’d be-
ARTHUR

CHUCK
(still trying to force a smile but barely can)
No, it’s not a joke.

ARTHUR

CHUCK
(begins to leave, tries to smile)
I know. Anyway, try to get the itinerary to Jensen sometime today, if you don’t mind.
