Ha ha.
[Kiss] Mm.

One magazine, that's all.
I forgot, I left it in the parlor.
Two ticks.
[Door opens, closes] [Sighs] Evening, Mrs. Buckle.

No complaints from any of my tenants, I hope.
No.

Mr. Bill Regan, however, well, his name came up quite a few times.

I know him.
He is the worst kind of slum landlord.
What we all need is a good, strong Mayor to keep him and his kind within bounds.
I haven't even written my application to the committee yet, and then I have to address the rest of the council and set out my stall before the vote at the end of the week.

The rest will follow.
