Earl: Some clients just aren't worth it, Pop... you know how hard it is to spin a massacre? Duke: We're pros, son. Suck it up. Earl: To be honest, Pop, Assad is the client from hell! He's driving his regime into a ditch! The problem is that his old man had some success with mass murder. He once wiped out a whole town of 30,000 people! So Junior, of course, thinks that's how it's done. If it worked for Dad, it should work for him! I guess that's normal. I know when I get into a jam, I usually ask myself, "what would Pop do?" Duke: Yeah, we all have our role models... ever since he funded my orphanage back in the '90s, I ask myself, "what would Newt do?" Earl: Wow... that explains a lot. Duke: Well, it lightens the load. There are so many rules that don't apply to him.
