    See, dude is just following the rules.
    No ego, no throwing his weight around, as soon as he is made aware of Section B, he acquiesces to the request.
    That's a man of duty and honour, right there.

    The issue I have with Charlie is the acting range. He has three modes: polite, politely mocking, and politely fuming. After 7 seasons I have no idea whether Dulé Hill can even act.
