It's Dan who compared himself to Rosa Parks, not Casey.


* Casey casually brought up Rosa Parks during an argument with Isaac Jaffee, naively comparing his struggle with network executives to her struggles in the civil rights movement. Jaffee ignores the comment, and they ultimately come to a peaceful compromise.
