Overheard Back-Channel Call
Note: The identities of the individuals in this conversation have not been unmasked. They are referred to as Voice 1 and Voice 2.
Voice 1: Vladimir, I need your help with Donald.
Voice 2: Hello, Jared. What is it this time?
Voice 1: We're worried. He seems to be slipping in his memory.
Voice 2: I do not see problem. He does not need to remember anything. We will tell him what to say.
Voice 1: I understand. But, yesterday, he did not even recognize me. He called me Paul Ryan.
Voice 2: Well, at least he did not call you Mitch McConnell. So, is not so bad.
Voice 1: I'm still worried. Things are getting bad here. We may all go to prison.
Voice 2: Is not my problem, Jared. You have been clumsy and have revealed too much. Perhaps prison will not be so bad for you.
Voice 1: But, you promised that everything would turn out OK.
Voice 2: And so it will, Jared. And so it will. Goodbye, Jared. Please do not call this number again. It will be disconnected.
Voiceover talent: Please tune in again tomorrow, folks, for another episode of "Back-Channel Follies. Will Jared ever reach Vladimir again? Is their relationship really over? What will be the next turn of events in this story of intrigue and stupidity?
