Dangerous assignment, transcribed starring Brian Dunlady as Steve Mitchell. Yeah, dangerous my assignment. I get sent to a lot of places I can't even pronounce. They all spell the same thing, they'll trouble. But when I walk into the Commissioner's office, I don't realize this assignment's going to prove that you can sometimes hit a home run with a swing of a rusty gate.
