narrows his eyes "I hope you mean that, Ryothom. This deal's too important to screw up. Can you handle it?"
Absolutely. It's just some redirects and such.

Yes sir. I say as I start to do the things we need to do
paces around the room "Alright, Ryothom. Here's what we're gonna do. We need to find a way to buy off Senator Johnson. He's the key vote here.
"We'll offer him a secret deal. Something big, something he won't be able to refuse. But we need to act fast before he gets suspicious."
Alright. What do you plan to offer him?

grabs Ryothom by the arm "Listen, Ryothom. This is our best shot. We need to move fast. Go see Senator Johnson right now and set up a meeting. Offer him the deal, make sure he knows it's real. Can you handle that?"
Yes sir. I leave to go do my job

Sir. He said he understood.
grabs Ryothom by the collar "No time for pleasantries, Ryothom. We need to seal this deal. Make sure he understands the consequences of saying no.

I come back to max We did it sir.
throws his arms up in triumph "Finally! We did it, Ryothom! We sealed the deal! Now we just need to sit back and watch it all fall into place."

hangs up the phone and turns to Ryothom "Alright, Ryothom, the car's here. Let's get moving. I can't wait to taste those delicious cocktails."
we get in the car and it takes us to the speakeasy
steps out of the car, looking around "This place looks promising. Let's head inside and find our table."
the valet opens the door Hello sir. I would say to the valet
