Hey, sugar hips.

Oh, sweet mother of God. What are you doing, Murphy?

Ever since chemotherapy, I've had to wear a stupid wig and I never had fun

it. You know, it's amazing. You put something like this on your head and all

a sudden you want to get a job in the Arkansas governor's office.

Hey, guys. Notice anything different?

Oh, my God. What is that? Don't hate me because I'm beautiful.

Now, Murphy, you know I've always been honest with you, right?

I'm the one who told you ankle straps made your calves look too big, and

Elizabeth Taylor's passion did smell right on you.

So, honey, trust me when I tell you this.

That thing looks like something my Uncle Cecil once caught in a trap.

Well, don't get used to this. Today is exactly six months since my last

chemotherapy. Yes.

I've got hair under your guys, and I'm not afraid to show it.

All right.

Yep, it's also the day I go in for my last mammogram. Once I get my clean bill

of health, then I can put this whole phase of my life behind me. Not that it

hasn't been fun, Cancer, but adios, sayonara, or waiters in, and screw you.

I tell big news, so gather round. And Murphy, can you bend in those flats?

Because you are going to be bowing at my feet.

Sorry, Kay, but I only bow to two things.

Royalty and loose change.

I just got back from a big meeting with the network brass. Are you excited yet?

Mel and his pinstripe posse finally agreed to let you do the Vietnam piece.

yes, yes.

Well, thank you. Thank you, Frank, for being so enthused about my surprise.

You know, I don't get a lot of happy moments in my day.

So if you're going to steal my news, I think it's only right that you be the

to call my mom and tell her that I am not engaged to Donald Trump.

I'm really sorry.

That was wrong of me. It won't happen again, okay?

I bet you're going on the corporate jet.

Hey, who's this?

The new J .Crew catalog.

Hi, um, there's something I've got to tell you, and I guess this is as good a

time as any.

I'm thinking about leaving the show.

What are you talking about?

Well, I've been doing this show for 20 years, and, well, maybe it's time to

it quits.

She didn't say quit, did she? I'm sorry, but I feel like today I'm being handed

back my life, and maybe I should start living it.

You can't just walk away from this show, Murph. We've been doing it for 20

years. That's my point, Frank. In 20 years, I think I've done it all. I've

it all. The only thing I haven't done is interview God.

Jim, talk some sense into this girl.

Well, I may not be the right person to ask.

I'm wrestling with that decision myself.

What the hell is happening here today? For years now, I've watched our business

change.

I've always held to a certain code, played by the rules. Well, there are no

rules anymore.

I can't find my niche.

So if you're ready to move out, Slugger, I may be ready to move out, too.

Oh, look, new bathing suits.

I meant that for Murphy, but I didn't feel like reaching.

Guys, I know this is a surprise, and frankly, it surprises me, too. But maybe

this is an opportunity to think about what you want to do with your life.

Me? I want to buy a beach chair.

Do you know that I don't own a beach chair?

It's unnatural.

Excuse me. Excuse me. Could you be a doll and direct me to Murphy Brown?

I'm Murphy Brown. You are?

Delicious.

I'm Caprice Feldman, your new secretary, by the way.

I have to tell you, I waited downstairs for half an hour for valet parking.

We don't have valet parking.

Then who took the rolls?

Well, I'll worry about that later. Is that my office?

Hey, wait a minute.

Oh, oh, oh.

I have to tell you right now, I do not care for this color. I am going to have

to call Fabrizio to rush down here with his chip jar.

Celeste cooked Reese with two seeds into lime. I'm talking like Chanel.

Whatever. This isn't your office. It's mine.

Well, thank God.

So where do I go?

Out there, but... You

mean I have to sit out here with a gun?

Okay.

Fine, I can do that.

My husband, Victor Feldman, dead.

And you.

Who are you?

Jim. Jim Dial. Oh, Mr. Dial.

Could I ask you to take Mr.

Bojangles out onto the balcony? He has to make a fist.

I, I, I... Bye, Mr.

Bojangles. Don't worry.

Mommy will be here. Oh, again.

You sick bastard!

Well, you obviously don't want to work here, and that's okay, because I don't

need a secretary. I'm leaving the show.

What show?

I'm on television.

You are?

Say, do they need a replacement?

Well, I don't know.

Why don't we go down to personnel and ask them? Oh, you know, I think I'm

to do just that.

To tell you the truth, I always thought I could have had a career in show

business, but no.

I had to stay home and service Victor K.

Feldman. God, how I used to dread the words.

Like a champion.

By the way, Mr. Dial, feel free to call me sometime.

I can do things.

I have more speeds than a Cuisinart.

I can go from blend to whip in seconds.

In fact, whip was what killed Victor.

What does he mean, what do we want out of one?

I know what you mean. You know, I've always been so focused on my work.

it, it just seems so lonely.

Frank, didn't I tell you this would happen? You know, I'm going to tell you

truth. I never really believed there was that one special person out there for

me. I mean, I know everybody's supposed to have their own soulmate, but I guess

I'm just never going to find mine.

Frank Fontana, that's the most cynical thing I've ever heard.

You haven't found her because you haven't opened up your heart.

Simple as that. Yeah, right.

Look at this. I've got to be on location in ten minutes. I'll see you later.

I want you to meet someone.

Murphy Brown, this is Julia Roberts. Oh, wow.

I'm such a big fan of yours.

Can you believe I knew her when she was just a tadpole?

I was producing game shows out of New York. It was my very first job. I was

prize girl on Youth or Lucid. She lasted two days.

I had to fire her. You fired Julia Roberts? No, I was a terrible, terrible

klutz. I could never get that whole prize sweep thing down. You know, the

where they say, enjoy riding the waves on your brand new fiberglass camera.

That's why I had to fire her. No, no, no.

She cost us $15 ,000 when she took out the Linux China.

Are you just in town breaking things?

No, I came to Washington to do a film, and I just wanted to come and say hi.

And, you know, just look around.

Is Frank Fontana here?

No, it's okay. You're safe.

No, actually, I wanted to meet him, but he's... He's probably on a big

assignment or maybe having lunch with his girlfriend.

Frank Fontana?

Oh, my goodness!

I've seen all your movies, except for the one where you played Dr. Jekyll's

and had no eyebrows. But I saw My Best Friend's Wedding three times, so that

makes up for it.

She came all the way up here to meet Frank.

Frank?

Fontana? Yeah, well, I mean, not exactly just for that. I love FYI. I do. But

there is some thing about Frank. I

can't quite put it into words.

Well, then don't.

Percy, I wanted to ask you about... An icon. Oh, hi. Hi.

I'm Julia.

Oh. Oh, my.

I'm Jim. Jim Deal.

Done.

It's a pleasure. It's such a pleasure.

I loved you in that movie when you played the harlot with the heart of gold

you wore those tall, cheap -looking patent leather boots.

Then you went out and bought some lovely dresses.

I like the boots.

You can all the way up here see Frank.

Frank? Fontana.

It's kind of amazing, really, because he wrote me this really poetic fan

letter. A few years ago, and it got lost on my agent's desk along with my offer

for Titanic.

But that's another story.

Anyway, I read this letter, and I just suddenly felt as though I had a

Did we just enter a parallel universe?

Oh, my God, Julia.

You have got to find Frank.

And he just left for location.

But you know what?

Sometimes he lingers around the newsstand at the lobby to see if anybody

recognizes him.

Maybe he'll still catch up.

Okay. I'll sit downstairs.

Yeah. Great. All right. Thanks.

Bye. Bye.

Bye -bye.

Frank!

Frank, Frank, you will not believe it. Guess who was just here looking for you.

Guess. I don't know. Mark, did you take those glasses?

Julia Roberts!

Julia Roberts was here, Frank, and she said she had a crush on you and you're

her soulmate. Wow, really? That is great.

Idiot. If you don't believe us, ask Jim.

Jim. Jim, are you okay?

Boots.

Okay, what's going on, humor? Is this another one of your practical jokes?

Really, Frank?

Julia was here. Here they are. No!

She's in the lobby at the newsstand.

I put her in the lobby, so I thought I'd just leave them a little note. Oh,

yeah. A text, a note to the letter, and then you'll know it's really you. And a

phone number, just in case. Well, I'm actually, um...

leaving town so changing location uh

thanks

anyway i i have to get back it was nice to meet you guys

they think i'm still in my trailer you

guys you were kidding right i mean julie roberts wasn't really here was she

because jim jim doesn't lie

I sent this to her a few years ago. And look at this.

Sealed with a kiss.

Dear Frank, love Julia?

Why didn't you tell me? Why didn't you tell me?

I met her. That's all I came about.

I'm going to find Julia. She just left. Hurry.

Listen, you call my producer. You tell him I'm going to be late.

If it's the last thing I do, I am going to find Julia. I'm going to find it.

I'm sorry. Sorry.

They're made for each other.

Okay, Miss Brown, you can take a seat while the doctor looks over your films.

should only be a few minutes. Right, I know the drill.

Phew, always a pleasant experience.

You'd think with technology what it is, they'd figure out a better way to x -ray

a woman's breath.

You know, we should be able to do this over the Internet. Just shove our

up next to the screen, point, click, and bingo, it's all done.

Maybe I'm going to write this down. I'm going to invent that in my free time.

As I sit in my beach chair.

Mrs. Faden, your films are fine. The doctor says see you next year.

Bye.

You talk too much.

Wow, look at all the things you can do with Jell -O.

Who has the time?

I do.

Mrs. Brown?

Well, that was fast.

Well, not that it hasn't been fun, and I hope you don't take this the wrong way,

but if I never see you again, it'll be too soon. You don't happen to know where

they sell beach chairs, do you?

Ms. Brown, we can't let you go yet. The doctor needs to speak with you.

What the hell is going on here? After all you've been through, this isn't

What is going on here?

Oh, Frank, come on. There's no point getting angry. It doesn't fix anything.

It is what it is.

So what happens now?

I go in for another surgery. That's the only way they'll know for sure.

If there's anything that I can do... I know it sounds

empty. I don't know what else to say.

Yeah, well, it's okay.

I know.

Boy, you know, I wish Phil were still alive.

Whatever bad stuff happened, I'd just come in here and sit on my stool and

his ear.

He'd always put everything in perspective.

Yeah. I'd say, Hiya, Phil.

And he'd say, Hey there, Murphy.

I'm down.

I know it's a shock, but there's a good explanation.

I'm no ghost.

I'm Phil.

But you are supposed to be dead. We buried you a year ago. Look, we were at

funeral. Pretty clever, huh?

Thank my own death.

This might be a stupid question, Phil, but...

took me underground, gave me a new identity.

But where were you? How did you live? Did you have to change your name?

It's a long story.

Suffice it to say that the skills of a bartender are lost on the Amish.

You know what?

This is a day for the record books.

Frank, would you mind if I talked to Phil alone?

Oh.

Yeah, sure, you know, I bet you guys have a lot of catching up to do.

Oh, and, uh, Murph, look, if anything at all you... Never mind, you know what I

mean, huh?

Oh, my God, Bill.

I have had a lot of surprises in this year, but this one tops them all.

God, you are a sight for sore eyes.

So, what's going on?

Talk to old Phil.

Well, I was sick this year, Phil.

I know.

If there was any way I could have gotten to you, I would have.

Well, it was the toughest year of my life.

And you know, the worst part is that I promised my kid I'd beat this thing.

I never broke a promise to my son, Phil.

And now it looks like I'm going to have to.

I gave it 100 % every single day.

And it wasn't enough.

And now I'm supposed to do it all again. How do I do that?

You don't ask how.

You just do it.

Look.

Isn't it better to know that you gave it everything you had?

If you're going to lose this one, lose it big and loud.

No going gently into that good night.

for you, kid.

You are Murphy Brown.

Besides,

you have to stick around for a while.

I've only been in town one day. I know more about this Monica Lewinsky thing

than anybody.

Oh, yeah, I got some really good dirty...

Any place but Pennsylvania.

Okay, now you're going to feel a little prick on your hand.

If I feel a little prick on my hand, somebody's getting sued.

Ow! Where'd you work last? The tattoo parlor?

Okay, now I want you to count backwards from ten, and once you get to five...

You'll be asleep. Yeah, right. You forget the high tolerance I got for

like this. You better put a little extra... Okay, she's out.

Like when any of you guys taped Chicago Hope last night, I cannot figure out how

to work my VCR.

Let's go.

Jeez, this is taking forever.

You guys get paid by the hour?

And you, you're not looking at my breasts like a doctor.

That's better.

Okay, I'm going to go get some air. Page me when you need me.

Ooh, cool.

I'm invisible.

I'm going to go weigh myself.

Look at the sunblock.

Lobby, please.

Whatever.

Hey, we passed the lobby.

And why does it say this elevator was last inspected in 400 B .C.? I think

due. They're coming Tuesday.

Wait a minute. What's going on here?

Why are we going so fast?

Can't see you after a while.

I used to be 6 '3".

Okay, top floor.

Watch your step.

Where am I going? What am I doing?

You have an appointment.

You said there was always one person you never interviewed.

Well, here's your shot.

Oh, my God.

Beagle.

Very tight schedule. Fifteen minutes tops.

Ground rules.

There are questions you shouldn't ask. Nothing about the grassy no.

No on the pyramids. Aliens did it. Don't look the DD directly in the eyes unless

you like salt.

And don't even mention Bill Gates.

God sold Microsoft much too early.

Ready?

As I'll ever be.

Why is it taking so long?

And why won't they tell us anything?

This is absurd.

We're reporters.

Gathering information is our business.

You see that candy striper over there? They know more than anybody. And believe

me, when she realizes who she's talking to, I'll have everything we need to

know.

Hello, young lady.

Hey, honey.

Could you stop shaking your leg like that?

You remind me of my nervous cousin, Teddy. He used to light the Roman

the county fair.

They used to call him Slow Teddy.

Now they just call him Lefty.

This is a parable, Kay.

I can't help it. I have no control over my nervous energy and which part of my

body it will invade.

Jim, did you find out anything? All right, here's what I know. She's 19

old and she thought I was that man in the painful Itch commercial.

Imagine her disappointment.

Damn demographics.

18 to 49.

Whatever happened to those crotchety old nurses in their worn cardigans and

orthopedic shoes?

They're stewardesses now.

Doctor, maybe you can tell us something. Doctor, doctor, can you give us any...

Frank! For the love of Mike, what are you doing?

I wanted to check on Murphy. I broke into the living closet and got these

scrubs. I went up to surgery.

I took my way into an operating room. I thought I was home free, but then I

looked... down into the sky, open chest cavity. I got a little woozy, and I

knocked over what I hoped was a coffee maker.

But I doubt it.

Hello, I'm Murphy Brown, and this evening we'll be having a conversation

God.

Welcome, God.

Some people have said that God works in mysterious ways.

Do our actions in life make a difference, or is our future already

for us?

Your life is a series of choices.

How you choose determines where you end up.

Oh, really?

Gee, I don't remember choosing to have cancer. With all due respect, why the

hell did you give it to me? I mean, heck, hell, oh, hell.

Your illness was a gift.

No offense, but a nice pair of driving gloves would have been more than enough.

You want to know what ticks off God the most?

When I give somebody a gift and they don't use it. I gave Beethoven a gift.

made him deaf, too.

I'm an ironic God. What can I say?

But it was Beethoven's deafness that forced him to hear an internal music

enriched the world.

Oh, you are good.

I guess it's easy to look smart if you know what I'm going to ask you.

Now, see, there's another one of your gifts.

Attitude.

I also gave you brains and faith.

I gave you fame.

Fame, yeah, great. I get good tables in restaurants. After that, it's people

rooting through my garbage and whispering to each other, oh, she's put

weight.

You know what celebrity is, Murphy?

It's an invitation to service.

Everything you do attracts attention.

If you get cancer, people sit up and take notice. And maybe they'd work

to find a cure.

Why don't you cure it? There we go again. Then you wouldn't have a purpose.

But if you're trying to figure out what to do with your life, let me give you a

little hint.

It doesn't involve a beach chair, okay?

All right, look, you're not telling me anything.

What is this, fun for you? You got bored wiping out trailer parks, so this is

how you amuse yourself by throwing a monkey wrench into people's lives?

Speaking on behalf of all humans, we can't make sense of the world anymore.

No wonder people stop believing in you.

You still have work to do, Murphy.

Work. You use your work to make a difference. That's what you're about.

End of story.

Well, gee, why didn't you say so?

I love my work.

But...

What difference does any of this make? And, oh, this is the big question.

Am I going to live or die?

Well, I think our time is about up.

Hey, wait a minute.

Okay, that's a wrap. No wrapping. You didn't answer my question.

Am I going to live or die?

Just remember what I told you about using your gifts.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I have this staff meeting. This El Nino thing is

getting out of hand.

That's what happens when you delegate.

Hey, come back here.

Murphy.

What?

Who is that?

Murphy. What?

Wow.

These drugs are great.

Murphy.

It was nothing, Murphy.

Just a cyst.

Congratulations and enjoy the rest of your life.

I knew she'd be okay. Of course she's okay.

Oh, what a relief. Now Murphy can get on with her life. Yeah, geez.

Away from FYI.

Oh, geez. You know, I don't know about you guys, but without Murphy,

I don't want to do FYI.

Yeah, it wouldn't be the same.

We've always been a team.

Yes, a team.

And we had a great run.

Maybe Murphy was right when she said it's time to move on.

Frank?

Oh, my God!

I've been looking for you. I'd given up.

Well, I guess it is meant to be because I'm shooting down the street again

and... I thought I'd come and see if you really do work here, and you do.

You know, on television, you can't tell that your eyes are so very, very

blue.

Do you believe in fate because they swear? I think fate brought us together.

Fate and Warner Brothers.

Oh, my God.

My director's going to kill me. They've been explaining the plot to Stallone,

and he was starting to get it when I left, so I...

Oh, yeah. Look, there's this quiet little bistro down the block.

And, geez, with any luck at all, everybody I know will be there.

I'm counting the hours.

Listen, um, just in case something happens between now and then, you know,

hit by a bus or something, I just...

This

is only going to last about a week, isn't it?

Tops. I don't care.

I'll see you at eight.

Frankie, um, you're not going to wear that shirt tonight, are you?

Oh, hey, hey, of course not. Okay, okay.

She's suffocating me.

Morning, all.

Oh, God.

That may be the last time we hear Jim say morning, all.

Now, now, I know this is a difficult time, but let's all try to go out with

dignity. I know I'm going to enjoy riding my...

Of course, I don't have a title yet.

Don't even have a concept.

But there I'll be, sitting at home, day after day.

Doris will ask me, how's it going?

I'll lie and say I'm on chapter three.

But really, I've just been writing the same sentence over and over, like the

in The Shining.

Or you know what? I'll be sitting in the park in my bathroom playing chess,

having named all the squirrels.

For the love of God, whatever made me want to leave this job.

getting us anywhere. Murphy's going to be here any minute to start packing up

her office. If she sees us acting like it's the end of the world, she's going

feel guilty.

Hey, do you have a minute? I just wanted to discuss my decision

to leave the show. Murph, Murph, you do not have to worry about us. We're fine.

In fact, you know, we're better than fine. I tell you, since the news leaked

that we were available, I mean, you know, the offers have just been flowing

Dateline, Nightline, Primetime.

Really? Yeah, and CNN's really been courting me. I mean, Ted Turner sent me

many presents, Jane keeps calling my office and hanging up.

Jim has three publishers already bidding for the rights to his book. Oh, yeah,

Jim, tell her about how you're starting Chapter 6.

That's my favorite. I don't like to discuss the creative process. It

the energy.

Someone else talk now.

That's terrific.

That's true. I'm just really happy for you.

So, what did you want to talk to us about?

Uh, nothing.

I was just wondering.

Well, nothing, nothing.

Um, uh, so I guess it's time for me to go pack up my office then.

Yes, sir. If you need any help, you know. Okay, well, I'll just be starting

now.

Hey, guys.

I know I'm a little selfish.

Somewhat selfish.

Okay, really selfish. Moving on.

I know you have all of these great things lined up.

I don't want to leave FYI.

There's no better place than this. I mean, come on.

And Corky, you're not going to be happy at CNN if you looked at those women

behind the anchor desk.

It's obvious that they have to do their own hair.

Oh, yeah, you'll really stand out there. They've got so many anchors that when

they do a publicity shot, they have to take it from a satellite.

What do I have to say to get you to stay?

How about stay?

Stay? What?

Oh,

God, guys.

You know, this was a close one. I mean, we almost walked out of here.

And I'll tell you what, ten years from now, we'd end up at a party somewhere

find out that none of us really wanted to leave.

What a bunch of idiots we are. Yeah, what a relief.

I was up all night writing this goodbye speech. Everything I wanted to say to

each of you. Boy, am I glad I don't have to do that now.

Let's get back to work. My gosh, we've got a show tomorrow night. All right,

let's do it.

Wait a minute.

Why is it everybody always waits until a retirement party or a funeral to tell

people what they really think about them?

I don't know about the rest of you, but I'd like to hear Corky's speech.

Oh, God, really?

Yeah. Come on, Corky. Let's hear it.

Okay.

Like I said, I wrote it kind of late, so it's not exactly finished yet, but here

it goes.

It seems like only yesterday when I came to FYI.

I'm so scared to meet all of you.

sitting at that first story meeting, I had no idea that the people I admired so

much would become my best friends.

So... You know, I'll tell you something. I remember that first day you showed

up, this little fluff ball who was going to be sitting next to us at the anchor

desk, and then you went and made us all pecan pies, and you put them in our

office with...

It's the sweetest little note.

And, Corky, I'll tell you something.

I still have that note.

Oh, Frank.

Actually, I bought those at Safeway.

I was too nervous to bake.

I was just worried if you guys would accept me or not.

It's not easy to come into a group as tightly knit as ours. Oh, tell me about

it. But eventually I figured out that the rubber vomit Murphy kept leaving on

desk was her way of showing affection.

And I don't do that to just anybody.

There's Jim's laugh.

Oh, it's the greatest laugh.

No sound comes out. You could just get Jim to laugh.

It's like this little reward.

I guess in the end, it's not the breaking stories or the awards or...

The big interviews that you remember.

The little things.

Snapshots in your memory.

Like the time I first met Jim. You know that you shook my hand just the way my

father taught me.

Take the person's hand firmly, look them straight in the eye, and that's exactly

what you did, Jim.

And I knew from that moment that as long as Jim Dial were around, I'd be safe.

And Courtney...

This may seem like a little odd, but you know one of my favorite things about

you is the way you know exactly what everybody orders for lunch.

Like how Frank has to have his fries extra crispy.

No pickle on his burger.

And Kay, you know what I'm thinking now?

About the way you park your car.

It's always slightly askew in this space.

I guess because it's not in your nature to stay between the lines, which is what

I love about you.

And Frank.

How can I even begin to think of saying goodbye to you?

This business would have burned me out a long time ago if I hadn't had you for a

pal.

How many people can say that they know somebody they can look right in the eye

and know exactly what they're thinking without even saying a word?

Like now.

And you know, it's not just you guys that make this place special.

It's all of you.

It's Todd and Debbie and Robert.

My name is Mark.

Don't ruin a beautiful moment, Mark.

My point is, you never know what life has in store for you.

But I do know that I was handed a gift the moment I walked into this place.

And I thank God for that.

Let's go put on an FYI.

I used to feel so uninspired.

And when I do, I need to face another day.

Oh, boy, it makes me feel so tired.

Before the day I met you.

better at the end.

That's a pretty cool surprise, huh, Mom? Oh, my God,

Eldon, I haven't seen you.

You are painting in Spain.

In a tiny little peasant village at the base of the Pyrenees.

I would have invited you to come visit, but when sheep get wet, they do not emit

a very pleasant aroma.

Anyway, a little elf Managed to find his mommy's Sprint card, and he tracked me

down. Pretty good. Did you know you can go anywhere in the world on Sunday for

only a dime a month?

Yeah, I knew that, honey.

Now, why don't you go set another place at the table? Sure.

Glad you're real.

Okay.

In May.

Eldon, I am so glad to see you.

You know, I just, I let myself in. You would think that after four years you

would change your locks.

Avery told me what happened to you.

And, you know, I just had to come back to see for myself.

Are you okay?

Yeah, I'm okay.

Well, that's good.

Because that's a lot to handle by yourself, huh?

And, you know, the boy, he's getting to be that certain age, and there's a lot

of work you got to do around here.

Oh, I was just, I was thinking that...

Will you marry me?

What?

Oh, come on, you heard me. You got ears like a damn bat.

I don't know what to say, except would you please get up?

I don't know if I can. I'm wearing Spanish underpants.

Eldon, your proposal was very sweet, but I can't marry you.

You can't?

No. No?

No.

I'm just trying to do the right thing here, and I think that I might have

one too many melatonin on the plane.

But now that you mention it, this place sure could use a little touch -up.

Say no more.

I've just started a mural depicting the breakup of the Soviet

Union.

I painted the Nike swoosh across Lenin's tomb.

I like it.

Then I must continue.

If you could just keep the music down because I have a little bit of trouble

concentrating.

Oh, I'm going to be here a while.
