Unbridled enthusiasm.

Elaine

Yeah!..tha..that's right. that That's what led to...(throath clearing) Billy Mumphrey's downfall.

Mandel

hmmm...interesting take. So you believe, has he not been so enthusiastic he could have adverted disaster.

Yes...Ye..Yes..That's right...You see ,Billy Mumphrey was a simple country boy. Some might say a cockeyed optimist, who got caught up in the dirty game of world diplomacy and International intrigue.

Mandel

So.. It was more a question of attitude than politics..
