Beauty and Despair in Paradise
Terry Hamlin It is so lovely here.
Governor Hayes I hate beauty. Do you realize how boring it gets looking at beauty day in and day out? Anyway, It can't last much longer.
Terry Hamlin Are you always this cheerful in the morning?
Governor Hayes Either the Americans will move in and turn it into Miami Beach, or the Cubans and Russians will come and turn the whole island into bloody Albania. There really is no hope. Islands like St. Nicholas make such nice missle bases, naval stations, money laundries.
Terry Hamlin Well if there isn't any hope why don't you leave? Go to New York or London?
Governor Hayes No. If the world is going to hell in a bucket, I want to hold the handle.

Then they served it to his family at his sister's wedding. And the sister loved it so much, she wanted the recipe. It's a crazy world, isn't it?
Anticipation of a New Opportunity

Tax Issues and Concerns in Paradise Resort
Ernest Reed What can I do for you, Mr. Gundy?
Solomon Gundy Nice to see you again, Ernest.
Ernest Reed Nice to see you too, Mr. Gundy.
Solomon Gundy Ernest, I come to you tonight because I'm deeply, deeply concerned. Now, when I became Prime Minister of St. Nicholas, I told you to come to me if you had any problem. Now, as Minister of Finance and Minister of Tourism, it has come to me...that you are delinquent in your taxes to the amount of $6,000, and that you haven't paid your food and beverage taxes; violations of the Tourism Codes; and reports of ganja being smoked right here on these premises. How can this continue?
Ernest Reed Divine justice, Mr. Gundy. Life is full of miracles.
Solomon Gundy I'm afraid it will take more than a miracle. Listen to me, Ernest: There is a new wind blowing across St. Nicholas.
Ernest Reed I smelt it the minute you walked in. It's business, man—you and your bankers and your lawyers are trying to "business" me out of here. Now if you're not drinking and you're not dancing, you'd better be going!

Governor's Visit to a Controversial Location
Jack Moniker Your Excellency. You're looking elegant this evening. Why are we graced with your imperial presence?
