Are we all done with that? Cowboy hats don't really suit me.

I liked the saloon, though, that was a nice touch.

I have nothing against them. Just against them on my head.

Really? No one ever looks bad in a good hat.

They probably suit you. Me, not so much.

If you say so.

And I'm Penny... which is usually something I get around to saying before talking about hats, so sorry about that.

James Rhodes. I started on the hats, so it's really my fault.

Well, there're definitely worst subjects. It's really nice to meet you, James. Rhodes? Mr. Rhodes?

James, Jim, Rhodey, Col. Rhodes, take your pick. James is fine.

You're a colonel? Doesn't that automatically mean everyone has to treat you respectfully and all?

I am, but I'm afraid people don't really. [ Well. Tony doesn't, that sort of ruins the respectful part. ]

I can do respect.

Well, you won't hear me complain, but don't force it.

I don't force anything, Colonel Rhodes, I promise. All sincerity, all the time.

In that case, don't let me stop you.
