 * Mister Bones: [door opens, footsteps, exhaling smoke, door closes] Good afternoon, Sue. Not out to lunch?
 * Sue Dibny: [gasp, clatter] Director Bones?! I... I didn't expect to see you. What- What brings you to Opal City?
 * Mister Bones: You do.
 * Sue Dibny: Oh... Oh, I, uh... I know the serves have been a bit sluggish and the field office in St. Roch hasn't got any new leads on that ghost-
 * Mister Bones: [chuckle, inhaling smoke, footsteps, chair legs sliding on carpet, clatter, exhaling smoke] I am not here to to discipline or berate.
 * Sue Dibny: Oh?
 * Mister Bones: Hmm, what's this? What you drinking there? Gingold? Interesting... Uh, where was- Oh, right... No, Sue, I am here to commend.
 * Sue Dibny: Commend?
 * Mister Bones: Despite these supposed setbacks you mentioned, it occurs to me that your region is the most effective... at least when you factor in budget, manpower, resources, distance between field offices, and all that other nonsense. And on top of that, you oversee six of ours nine server farms. That's no small feat, Director Dibny. [inhaling smoke] How are you holding up? [exhaling smoke]
 * Sue Dibny: Uh... [nervous chuckle] Wow... I'm sorry. I wasn't expecting to be praised, sir... You, uh... You caught me off-guard.
 * Mister Bones: [chuckle] No need to be modest, Sue. Just answer the question. Is it too much? Do you need more funding? A raise?
 * Sue Dibny: Uh...wow... a raise is always nice, I won't lie, but... uh... No. I think we're doing good, sir. I know budget is as tight as is. Wouldn't be fair.
 * Mister Bones: And things with the husband? Home life good too? Were not stretching you too thin, are we?
 * Sue Dibny: [chuckle] No. no... Ralph and I... were, uh, flexible. He's an agent, too...
 * Mister Bones: Oh, yes... i know all about Ralph. [inhaling smoke, clatter, footsteps, door opens, exhaling smoke] |Let's talk more over lunch.
 * Sue Dibny: [nervous chuckle] Right... Of course, just let me grab my coat. [clatter, footsteps, door closes]
