C.A. Gray: I’ll bet it’s strange for you to be on the other side of an interview, since between the two of us, you’re the famous reporter.
Kate Brandeis: Not really, Q&A is kind of the same, no matter which side of the table you’re on.
CAG: So I understand you’ve been through a few nasty ...

Jackson MacNamera: …Do you want an honest opinion, or…?
