Ray: A funny thing. I had heard... And I know how things get blown out of proportion and stuff gets misconstrued. Whatever. I had heard that somebody told me that you hated me. [nervous chuckle]
Jerry Musso: What?
Ray: "Hate." Yeah, that was the word, "hate," which seemed odd to me because we had never met. I mean, I have my faults, like anybody else, but I think once you get to know me, l... You know, it's like my mother says, it's... I- Well, anyway, I don't know, I was just wondering-
Jerry Musso: Well, I don't understand. Why- Why would I hate you?
Ray: That's what I said.
Jerry Musso: Yeah, well, that's ridiculous. I don't hate you. Who told you that? I really- I don't know where you could've got that. In fact, you should do my show. Would you do my show?
Ray: Yes. Yes, that would be great. Okay, where's Andy? Andy! Andy!
Andy: Hey, what's up, Jer?
Jerry Musso: Andy, this is Ray Barone, "New York Newsday."
Andy: How do you do? Ray, is it?
Ray: Yeah.
Jerry Musso: Well, how come we haven't booked Ray on the show? I mean, he'd be great.
Ray: You know, I knew this was some kind of big misunderstanding.
Jerry Musso: Oh, sure, sure. Well, listen, enjoy yourself, and it was nice to meet you.
