Man: "Treatment for Camp David docu-drama... Scene: A neat row of cozy cottages nest-led somewhere in the Maryland mountains..." Irwin Numbers here. Voice: Hi, Irwin. It's Freddy. Man: Hi, boss. What's up? Voice: I was wondering if you'd checked out the treatment for the Camp David docu-drama yet. Man: Yeah, I have. I don't think it's good television. Voice: Good television? What're you talking about? It's a natural in the suspense department! Man: It's too talky, boss. The summit wasn't exactly the raid on Entebbe, you know. Voice: I disagree. It's got a heck of a story. Besides, ABC's thinking of doing it. I want you to get right on it! Man: *sigh*.... okay, Freddy. It's your network. Who do you want for it? Voice: John Travolta and Suzanne Somers. Man: As Begin and Sadat? Voice: So they'll have to stretch a little. Look, trust me.
