| 0:00.0 | If you say you're going to do this thing, can you do this thing you say you're going to do? |
| 0:02.7 | It's not just a discussion how it might happen. |
| 0:04.7 | How would it actually happen? |
| 0:06.0 | If I tell you to grab that guy's feet and try to go around them and they're resisting you, can you actually do it? |
