[edit] Summary
[edit] Quotes
Oscar: You'll be working with Mr. Sam Sloane, who's Chief of Protocol in the City of New York.
Jaime: Does this Mr. Sloane know I'm from the OSI? (Oscar shakes his head) Well, won't he guess?
Oscar: If I know Sam, he'll be busy admiring your legs.
Jaime: Well, is he hung up on bionics?
Oscar: No, I'm the one who's hung up on bionics, remember?
Oscar: I have hard evidence that the local group of conpspirators are tied in with the military group of Dapur and plan to take over the country when the King is dead. It's too dangerous!
Jaime: I can't quit now. Tonight is the reception for the King, and I've gotta be with him. That's all there is to it.
Oscar: You're stubborn!
Jaime: Yes! And for once, you're right!
The King: If you are an example of the liberated woman, I highly regret the traditions in my country that makes such progress impossible.
Jaime: Well, I'm sure that Your Highness can find a way to make progress, and still keep the, uh, the best of your country's traditions.
The King: I hope so, Miss Sommers.
Sam: Why is it so important to get you out of the way?
Jaime: Because I am not a social secretary. Sam, I'm an OSI agent.
Sam: You're a what?!
Jaime: My assignment was to protect the king, and this secretary bit was just a cover.
Sam: OSI agent... now who's going to take care of the kids while you're out chasing villains?
Jaime: What kids?
Sam: Our kids, after we're married. (Jaime's jaw drops) Look baby, I... I like you. I worry about you. Couldn't you get into a safer job, like wing walking?
