The Secretary of State is watching the news when the Queensland News interrupts his show of Fork Man.
BREAKING NEWS:
A reporter starts talking, "Footage received from an anonymous citizen in Munich, Bavaria shows a French Lieutenant shoot a Celatoroan Ranger. How Secretary of State Joe Biden [I know, I know] will respond to this is still unknown."

The Secretary jumps out of his chair, puts on some pants, and drives from his home of Gold Coast to Brisbane to speak with the President, because the Prime Minister was in the Commonwealth.
