Episode Quotes
Hugh Abbot: Good morning.
Robyn Murdoch: Good morning, Minister.
Hugh Abbot: Just off to your 8:30 with Malcolm? The Big One? First one?
Robyn Murdoch: Into the lion's den. The viper's pit.
Hugh Abbot: The belly of the beast. The lair of the white worm.
Oliver Reeder: The eye of the snake. [all stare at him]
Hugh Abbot: Not all the departments get asked to the 8:30's, so it's great that we are in there with the big hitters. Always best to be inside the tent, pissing out.
Oliver Reeder: Absolutely. If you were doing this at the Department of Enviorment and Rural Affairs, at 8:30 you'd be very much outside the tent, probably at Coffee Republic.
Hugh Abbot: Covered in piss.

Hugh Abbot: Covered in piss.
Hugh Abbot: [arguing about Hugh remaining in the dark on the 8:30's situation] Why didn't you tell me, Glenn? What possible reason did you have? You saw me, I was swinging like a colostomy bag!
Glenn Cullen: Oh, Hugh, grow up! Stuff happens in this department every day, I can't tell you everything!
Hugh Abbot: Since when, Glenn, since when does the Secretary of State for Social Affairs have to find out from the fucking press that every morning at 8:30 I'm being fisted up the gallbladder by a bald man?
Glenn Cullen: Oh, Hugh, grow up! Stuff happens in this department every day, I can't tell you everything!
Hugh Abbot: Since when, Glenn, since when does the Secretary of State for Social Affairs have to find out from the fucking press that every morning at 8:30 I'm being fisted up the gallbladder by a bald man?
Malcolm Tucker: Hughey?
Hugh Abbot: Just thought you'd like to know as soon as possible. Terry's dad?
Malcolm Tucker: Yeah?
Hugh Abbot: No news.
Malcolm Tucker: So, you've come to talk about the reshuffle, then?
Hugh Abbot: Yeah. In terms of shuffley stuff, how's Neil? Is his heart...?
Malcolm Tucker: Have you not heard? He's paralised. Neil's on wheels. He's a vegetable.
Hugh Abbot: Oh, dear.
Malcolm Tucker: Mind you, that means you could have his department.
Hugh Abbot: Oh, you ARE kidding. Fuck you very much.
Malcolm Tucker: I know you're looking for mouth-to-mouth on the reshuffle, but I don't know anything about it and even the PM is still working it out on the back of a Coldplay CD as we speak.
