- Federal Police department, how may I assist you?
- Uh.. yes.. I just got hit in the face with a cream pie.
- Okay, sir. Have you called the Federal police department before?
- No
- Well, let me get a little information about you for our records. Your name?
- Wayn Swan, I'm the Australian Federal Treasurer
- Country?
- Australia
- Native language?
- English.
- Okay, sir. Your police department ID number is BP31415927. Please use this number the next time you call. Now, you say you were hit in the face with a pie?
- Yes, I was just about to meet with the Prime Minister, Julia Gillard. One person distracted me while another hit me with a cream pie.
- We've had other Federal Labor Party Ministers report that they were hit in the face with a custard pie recently. Are you sure it was a cream pie?
- Well, I have white stuff all over my face and I don't see any custard, so I really don't think it was a custard pie.
- Have you visited the Prime Minister before?
- Yes, many times
- Were you hit in the face with a pie then?
- No
- Hmm... have you visited any other Ministers in the past month?
- Yes
- Any pies then?
- No
- Okay, well.. let's try something. Go outside the building and come in again. I'll wait.
- Just a minute.." (several minutes pass) "Okay, I'm back.
- Did you get hit by another pie?
- Of course not
- Well sir, I don't know what could have caused the first pie, but it looks like things are working fine now. I'll make a note of the problem, though. If it happens again, please note the exact details of the situation and call us again. Thank you for calling the Police Department. (click)
