Captain Qwark: I didn't ask for a fee. I'm just here to offer Artemis Zogg my support.
Cyrus: PRO BONO?? That's insane! Your celebrity is too valuable to just give it away. Especially for a supporting role.
Qwark: Well, I am kind of a big deal—
Cyrus: You're a huge deal! You make Ace Hardlight look like Glimglam Farblenash. Remember him?
Qwark: Err, no.
Cyrus: Boom. Point made. Now let me ask you something: Why are you endorsing this old Blarg sniffer?
Qwark: He's noble, intelligent, and a man of the people.
Cyrus: And if I asked you to describe yourself in three words or less, what words would you use?
Qwark: Noble, intelligent, and a man of the people?!
Cyrus: BOOM! So why take the supporting role when you can be the lead? Can you imagine? "Hero-Turned-Has-Been-Turned-Spokesperson-Turned-Actor gives back to the universe by devoting his life to public service."
Qwark: But what about Artemis?
Cyrus: Artemis Zogg is old. He's been in office since the Lombaxes ran things. We need some new blood, not some delusional Markazian who thinks he's going to save the galaxy. Say it out loud and tell me it doesn't sound right.
Qwark: Galactic President Captain Qwark.
Cyrus: Close enough.
