Elmont: Good morning. My name is Elmont or Elmo or something like that. My mother was a mumbler. I just wanted to say that this Lacey person was one class act! She always took time to offer you a dove bar! Or an encouraging word about your screenplay. Jeremy: Excuse me? Elmont: Someone needs to be excused? Jeremy: Sorry, old boy, but you don't appear to be on the program! No mention of anyone fitting your description! Elmont: I'm standing in for the president of France. Jeremy: Oh...I wasn't told. Sorry! Carry on!
I love seeing Jeremy foiled by Elmont.
