Everything looks good from here... Yes. Yes, this is a fertile land, and we will thrive. We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... 'This Land.' I think we should call it 'your grave!' Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal! Ha ha HA! Mine is an evil laugh! Now die! Oh, no, God! Oh, dear God in heaven!

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

Don't forget an open ended close. "Is there any other information you feel comfortable sharing that might help my sister demonstrate shes is a match?" Something on those lines.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

"unwrap the kimono" sounds both sexist and rascist, even if it isn't.

Huh. So not the context I took away from the meeting.
