It's, like, one phone call.
"Hello, they won't let us take off.
Can you fix it?"
"Oh, no, monsieur.
Big volcano. No take off. " "Well, this is General Glen McMahon we're talking about here. " "Oh, General Glen McMahon.
Oh, I did not know.
Why didn't you say that?
Pardon, monsieur, of course you may take off. " - Done! How hard is that?
- I've made the calls. Believe me.
Listen, we are the f***ing US military.
We practically invented everything!
And now we have some chinless f*** in Brussels who's telling us we can't fly our own plane because of a volcano in Greenland.
What are we supposed to do?
Sit around here in Paris and wait for it to "stop erupting"?
I don't know, Greg. This isn't exactly a situation that I've been in before.
Okay, bear with me on this one.
I think I might have just solved our problem.
I really can't tell you why these guys got so loose in front of me.
Or why Glen let them get so loose.
I can only put it down to hubris.
These guys thought they were the most important guys in the world... with the most important jobs in the world.
Maybe they assumed I thought they were as amazing as they did.

Hmm?
What are you writing?
