Mayor William Dudley:
You mind telling me what's going on with the ambulances and-
Nurse Andrea Harper:
(cutting the mayor off) Not a bit Mr. Mayor. You know it seems that there was some idiot who let them build a refinery right in the middle of the city and this is the result! You know I bet it was you. I really would like to hear you talk yourself out of this boo-boo!
Mayor William Dudley:
You mind telling me what's going on out here?

Mayor William Dudley:
