Is that what all this is about? . . . You got something against my mother? . . . Why, if I wasn't a professional, I'd strip off these bars, jump over this table, and . . . "

5. Rodgers is saying:

"I'm supposed to answer you? . . . Hell, you don't even dress like a man. . . . Where's your uniform?"

6. I have never been directed to do anything I believe to be illegal, immoral, unethical or inappropria

And remember I said "I believe", because what I believe is illegal and what you believe might be different. But mostly I do my illegal, immoral, unethical, or inappropriate stuff pro-Bono. I don't need directions to do it.

You think I'm gonna put all the President's cake in jeopardy? I love the appetizers. But you don't ever go against the dessert. Ever."
