You could hear everything.

And I said, baby, I want to do that. Baby, I do that before. Like, when I go to Europe, people ask me questions, and I answer the question. But this time, I just want to answer the question. I do it, you know what I mean, theatrically, like Mr. Palminteri. And she was writing the script. and we were rehearsing, she was writing the script. We didn't know how we was gonna ever do it.
