[Second Frame: AN is admiring as AZ brags]
AZ: Yes, Ms. Nutherpill, it was easy to get the AMA House of Delegates

[Third Frame - AZ continues]
AZ: The chiros are media neophytes, but they've been making steady progress with their national media campaign. Resolution 623 will fund $200,000 to $500,000, a mere pittance, to explain to the masses just how uneducated chiropractors are comparted to real doctors.

AZ: Yes, and in some ways better.
[Fifth Frame: AN is still curious]
AN: Then how will you convince the public that the chiropractors aren't as educated?
[Sixth Frame - AZ gloats]
AZ: It's not the story, Nutherpill, it's how you tell it.
