USA Today. Jackie, any truth to
the rumor you're posing for Playboy?

:06:06
- l don't know. You think l should?
- Oh, yes, absolutely, absolutely.

:06:10
Marsha Gary, Detroit Times.
This is for you, Luther.

:06:14
You've had a real meteoric rise,
:06:16
but we all know that sometimes
meteors crash and burn.

:06:19
- Any chance of that happening?
- Are you kidding? No way.

:06:22
- Hey, look, it happens to everybody.
- Eventually.

:06:27
l'm teaching Luther the dictionary.
We haven't gotten to the E's yet.

:06:38
All right, show-and-tell's over.
Come on.

:06:40
- Can we have one more?
- What are you gonna do after Miami?

:06:44
- Are you calling me stupid?
- What?

:06:46
Tell them you're
teaching me the alphabet.

:06:48
Come on, Luther, it was a joke.
That's why they laughed.

:06:52
All right, ready?
Picture, press, professional.

:06:57
So you didn't return my phone call
about Luther.

:07:00
- How come?
- l've been busy.

:07:01
There cannot be another crisis next
week. My schedule is already full.

:07:05
Don't give me
the talk-show answer, Jackie.

:07:08
lt's not a talk-show answer, Renee.
:07:11
l haven't had time
to breathe since Tampa.

:07:15
Tampa. Yeah, l heard about Tampa.
:07:20
We won.
What else did you hear?

:07:24
- You don't know?
- No.

:07:27
The press conference. Maybe you
don't realize how you came off.

:07:31
l came off fine.
:07:32
lt's fine to act like Luther's
schoolteacher?

:07:35
To humiliate him in front of everybody?
:07:40
Press conferences are so out-of-body.
You say what you say.

:07:43
- ls Luther still bitching about that?
- No, l'm bitching about it.

:07:47
Oh, so you speak for him now?
:07:50
- Please, you hardly know him.
- l know him well enough.

:07:54
Biblically. Don't confuse
that with intimately, Renee.

:07:57
lt's an entirely different testament.
Thank you.
