Duke: ...and call the labor ministry. We're going to need scabs to serve lunch at the ceremony. Honey: That won't be necessary, sir. I settled the kitchen worker strike last night. Duke; You did? Now, that's the best news I've had all week! Good work, Honey! Honey: Thank you, sir. I wonder if you'd like to go through the list of today's honorary degree recipients. Duke: Sure, why not?
