Okay. First order of business to come out of this office is the city-wide gay rights ordinance, just like the one that Anita shot down in Dade County. What do you think, Lotus Blossom? Michael Wong:

Okay, so make it brilliant. We want Anita's attention here, in San Francisco. I wanted to bring her fight to us. We need a unanimous vote - We need headlines. Jim Rivaldo:
Dan White is not going to vote for this. Harvey Milk:

Oh, well, I'll be there! Dan White:
Great! Thanks. [waves at everyone and leaves] Dick Pabich:

I would let him christen me if it means he's gonna vote for the gay rights ordinance. Jim Rivaldo:
[as Harvey is talking]
I think he can hear you. Jesus. Harvey Milk:
We need allies. Dick Pabich:
I don't think he heard you. Cleve Jones:
Is it just me or is he cute?
