Honey: Oh, there you are, sir! Duke: Mmph! Honey: I've been looking all over for you... Duke: You don't have to scream, Honey! Honey: Sorry, sir, but it's inauguration day. I don't think you want to miss your own swearing in. Duke: Oh...right. Give me a minute to cut through the cobwebs, okay? Honey: Were you under ether the whole night, sir? Duke: Yeah, I couldn't sleep. Too nervous about my speech.
