rick astleyI never once regretted our decision to leave CTU. I don’t want to look back on today and realize I could have helped. [Tony: We’re running a business here. Rick Rosen’s expecting us to make a presentation] You can handle the meeting on your own.

We helped to make Rick Santorum into a national laughingstock with an invaluable assist from Rick Santorum, of course.
You must help me, Rick! (is dragged away) Rick!! Rick!!
