Privet, Mayfield. [Estonia never uses Russian, usually. This should be your first clue that something is horribly, horribly wrong.]
I would like to appeal to you all today on behalf of the Union of Soviet Socialists Republics. I am aware that many of you -- either because of past experiences, pig-headed capitalism, or Mayfield's teachings -- believe that communism is the root of all evil and must be stopped. That's not true, though, not at all. Socialism, at its very core, depends on teamwork and equality and needs you wanting to improve whatever horrid system you're in. And I'm not sure there are a lot of systems more horrid than this. We'll never get through this without teamwork. We'll never get through it without communism.
If you'd like to join us, Ukraine and myself, Estonia, are both here to talk it over with you. The Soviet way is a great way and I'm sure you won't regret it.
[Having worked himself up into a perfectly charming public speaking voice by then, he leaves it at that.]
