“This is irony, isn’t it?”

“More or less. What does he do?”

“What do you mean?”

“I wonder if working with Foreign Relations forbids you to understand your own language.”

“Oh! Got it! You want to know what his work is? He doesn’t do anything. Why should he work if he doesn’t need to?”

“You mean he has more money than brains?”
