Quote from Ben in Citizen Knope
Dennis Feinstein: I'm gonna cut right to the chase, Ben. This cologne company is my life's work. Why should I trust you with my perfumery? Ben: Well, uh, I've been in government accounting for more than a decade, and I just think it's time for a change. Dennis Feinstein: Listen, Ben, I'm gonna cut right to the chase, okay? I like you-- I've always liked you-- but I also like Eddie. Ben: Ed--who--who's Eddie? Dennis Feinstein: [snaps fingers] Eddie's my current CFO, but I might fire him and hire you. You got kids? Ben: No. Dennis Feinstein: That's good. Dum-dum Eddie has two kids. [blows raspberry] Ben: Oh, God. Don't fire Eddie. Why would you have him in here in this interview? Eddie, I am sorry-- Dennis Feinstein: Don't talk to Eddie. Treat him like you would treat a person in another country that you paid $25,000 to hunt. Ben: What are you talking about? Dennis Feinstein: What am I talking about? I'm talking about the best vacation of my life. Ben: Oh, my God. Look, I'm sorry. I-I thought I wanted to branch out a little career-wise, but that was a mistake. Keep Eddie. I do not want this job. Dennis Feinstein: [laughs] You're crazy, man. We'll be in touch.
