Can you tell us about her? 200 00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:57,520 I can spare three more minutes for you. 201 00:14:58,120 --> 00:14:59,720 Today's a good day, so I'll share. 202 00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:19,720 Her life is extremely well managed. 203 00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:22,360 She arrives at exactly the same time every day. 204 00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:25,600 First, she gets a briefing. 205 00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:29,400 She knows everything, I mean everything, about the broadcast beforehand. 206 00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:34,720 She doesn't like sitting, and her news meetings are super fast. 207 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:36,480 Let's stay out of it. Too risky. 208 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:38,560 She and Kenan have their own language. 209 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:41,360 They don't even need to speak to understand each other. 210 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:43,040 Happy hour. 211 00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:44,800 I'm not talking about drinks. 212 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:48,440 Between four and six o'clock, Lale picks up her kids from school. 213 00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:51,520 That's her private time, and it's impossible to reach her. 214 00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:53,640 Hence the name happy hour for us. 215 00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:57,840 Because even if the world were on fire, we'd be unable to reach her, 216 00:15:57,920 --> 00:15:59,080 so we have nothing to do. 217 00:15:59,920 --> 00:16:02,880 Melisa.
