Rep. Great honor.

NORM
He‘s- ?

KEN
Man of the hour.

NORM
(Pulling Ken aside) This a joke? You haven‘t heard about-

KEN
I know, I know, Shapiro. Owe her a favor.

NORM
Hope it‘s a big one. (Back to Benny) So. Benny Rosen.

BENNY
Junior. Truly sorry about the cigar.

NORM
Hey- no worries.

KEN
Everyone here? (To Norm) Maestro? (Retreats to a chair)

NORM
Brenda! (Jumps when he discovers her right behind him.) Let's have the copy for Mr. Rosen. (To
Benny) Have a seat. Be ready for you in a bit. (To kids) Okay, once more just to play it safe. Big
smiles! Relaxed.

BENNY
(Tapping Norm on the shoulder) Excuse me.

NORM
Yes?
