platinum records, and six number one hits. why is really a mystery, as whatever they were singing about in private eyes, we will find out, i guess. that aside they broken up. thank you for watching news night with laura coats live that starts right now. laura? hi! >> i won't tell you one of my theme songs was oh, here she comes, watch out, boy, she will show you up, she is a man eater. i'm just kidding! ♪ ♪ ♪ i will do the whole thing! you have no idea. all of, it hall and oates, thank you so much. i don't know why they broke up. >> what did he say? >> some shade like he was my business partner, not my creative partner. there's a story there, and i want to hear it. >> for sure. >> different night. have a great night! nice to see you. >> happy thanksgiving! >> happy thanksgiving! what happened? why is there a delay in releasing hostages? what does this mean for the deal we heard about just yesterday? tonight on laura coates live. ♪ ♪ ♪ we should be celebrating the release of some of the hostages just a few hours from now. instead, you're trying to figure out why the deal that had been struck just yesterday will not go into effect before friday. that means there is no pause in fighting, no release of the hostages, and the question is why. is that a matter of logistics? is it a diplomatic issue? no, these are our questions we are asking to each other tonight. imagine what questions the families have. they're going to have to wait at least one more excruciating day. israel's national security council said no hostages will be released before friday. now, notice the language i just said, before friday. does that mean it could be even later than that? why did this delay happened so suddenly? when we were right on the verge of what was thought to be the release of the first of 50 women and children tomorrow. one of the officials telling cnn it was just a matter of, quote, fairly minor implementation details. others said part of the reason was that israel had not received the names of the first hostages to be released. that is hardly a minor implementation detail, right? nothing could be more important than people waiting to hear the names of their loved ones that they might be on that list. not just listed among those who were taken in the news stories covered over since october 7th, but among those to be released. you finally have hope you might see your loved ones and soon, you might even have a date in mind, then you are told, not yet. wait a little longer. >> we are just so desperate for them to come home and come back to us, and go back to israel where they belong. i just want to see them, hug my and, and to be with her again. >> so who will be released? when? full stat, a source telling cnn a source has a working list of hostages they believe are likely to be released first, likely not as clear as you want it to be. it's not clear, also, whether any of the three american hostages, including a three-year-old child, abigail edan, whether she will be released on the first day, or possibly later. the white house is in wait and see mode. >> there are three americans that will qualify for the stipulations of this particular deal. to american women and one toddler, abigail edan who will turn four on friday. we are hoping that those three americans, two women and little abigail, will be in at least one of the increments of these hostages that are coming out over the next few days. we will have to watch. >> watch, we will. we have learned a lot more about what is expected to happen when they finally begin to release hostages. every evening, before the next day is released. israel and hamas will give the red cross the list of names of hostages, and prisoners. it will be brought by the red cross to make a, who will be met by specially trained israeli soldiers, who will then verify that the hostages released are on that list. the families of those hostages will now not be notified until the identities of those released have been confirmed by those officials. they will be taken by helicopter, several hospitals in israel where there will be rooms for them that are close to the public, and where their families will finally be able to see them after over six weeks in captivity. tonight, none of that is on the immediate schedule. joining me now, former u.s. ambassador, daniel kurtzer. he served as the u.s. ambassador to israel and u.s. ambassador to egypt. ambassador, thank you for being here. i wonder, 24 hours ago, we had to the hope and expectation that there will be a release. does that give you a pause that there will be a delay in that? >> laura,, on the one hand, this is a very complex set of negotiations leading up to what we hope is a successful hostage release, and humanitarian access. it is far more complex than any of the other kind of prisoner exchanges that we've seen in recent years, where you have two parties, each one handing over one or two individuals. what we hope is not the case here, it is that hamas is playing games, but they have claimed they don't have access to all the hostages. i wonder whether that is the case here, are they playing psychological games with the israelis, which would be horrible at this stage. i think it we just have to wait, be patient, and hope, by friday, we will start to see this deal go into effect. >> you know, obviously, it is difficult to be patient for these families who are waiting and wondering about that psychological warfare. mind you, we are talking about the hostages, but there were 1400, i believe, deaths as well on october 7th. so, the trust issue, obviously, the understatement of the year, is there. the red cross, though, is playing a pretty big role here. i wonder what you make of that, and that they will be the ones to have first contact and bring them to the soldiers. >> well, the red cross has been instrumental around the world in almost all of those situations. they are the only organization that could get access to prisoners, or hostages. the under in war zones. with fact they're being brought into the implementation of this deal is quite important, not just in terms of the logistics of the hand over, but the first time in five, six weeks now, they are supposed to be able to visit the rest of the hostages, and provide needed medical care for those who may not be getting it. >> an important point. we don't know the condition of the remaining hostages, or had they been treated at all, are they getting the aid that they need, how are they being fed. there's a lot of questions, let alone their medical treatment. you played a really instrumental role between the palestinians and israel in the 1990s. i would love to understand a little bit behind the scenes. we are hearing about, obviously, the released in the negotiations, and the result. what is going on behind the scenes, do you think, at this point in time to try to work through these delays? >> the problem today is that whatever trust that was built up over the years since the madrid peace conference in 1991, or the oslo accord in 1993, that trust has been broken badly. there have been failed negotiations over the years, the israeli government, palestinian authority are barely talking to each other, and problems in the west bank even while there is a war in gaza. now you have the added element of the horrific attack inside israel that killed about 1400 people on october 7th. it is not just a matter of broken trust, but it is a different ball game. i think, even those israelis who had hoped that, at some point, we could get back to what is called the peace process, are now losing faith in that possibility. hamas is holding out, at the end of the day, with israeli loss of hope and palestinian loss of hope, they will emerge on top. that is why everything is happening now. the fighting, the humanitarian issues, the hostages. all of this plays into a long term problem for israelis and palestinians, and for the rest of us as we look at a region in disarray. >> this feels like an iceberg we are seeing just the tip of diplomacy, and everything that is underneath in the nuance. ambassador, nick you so much for joining us. 46 days and counting. it has been agonizing for the families that are desperate for word of their loved ones who are being held hostage in gaza. among them, nearly 240 hostages. 26 year old along shimmery's. their father say he was kidnapped from his home during the hamas attack on october 7th. his father joins me now. thank you for being with me this evening, for you in the morning. this has been a very difficult -- i obviously know that is the understatement, but the hostage are likely to be women and children in this initial round. you have an adult son. it has got to be difficult for you to know that you are supposed to put on a brave face, or be patient knowing that your son, an adult male, will not be included initially. what is that like for you today? >> good morning. actually, it is quite disappointing for me because i was expecting that all the hostages would be released at once, and not partially. i don't know why the hamas is doing that, are they just playing games? they are supposed to release all of the hostages, and what they are doing now is playing games with the families and the hearts of us. i am really disappointed from what's happening now. >> have you gotten any information about your son since he was taken? >> no not at all. actually, i don't know what has happened to him from the day he was kidnapped from his home. until now, we don't know if he is injured, if he is alive. hamas terrorists are not allowing my son to get any visitors or red cross. we are in the dark here. >> your son is not a soldier, we should tell everyone. this is somebody who was taken from his home. we have been showing photographs of him while we have been conversing today. can you tell me about your son? what is he like? >> my son is a regular citizen. he is actually a student for computer-ing, computer engineering. he was working in our factory as a logistic manager. he was coming to my house to eat. he liked to play basketball, soccer, he likes barcelona, and argentina's national team. i don't know what is happening here. from whenever we know the palestinian in gaza, we were helping them. we were taking them, the people to the hospital. we were driving them to the hospital. money and food, and shelter to the families who were [inaudible] and part of them actually were being hired and we've given them jobs in our village. i don't know why hamas is threatening that to us, to us or my son. we are not deserving of this, what they did. >> who would possibly deserve what you have gone through and trying to figure out where your son is. how do you feel about the way the government has been handling all of this? they have agreed to this deal that initially does not include men. how do you feel about this deal? >> i cannot blame my government because they are doing the best to release the hostages. the problem is not with my government, the problem is with hamas because they are not using any logic thinking. they just want to harm us and help our feelings. i don't know -- our government is trying to release everyone so i cannot blame them. >> well, of the, certainly wish for your son to be home and all of the sons and daughters to be returned, as well. abe, we will be thinking of you. avi shamriz, thank you very much. >> thank you, if you have any connection with the hamas, whatever, they have to act is a human being. my son is a civilian. he was not soldier. we deserve to get all information about him. thank you very much. >> thank you, you should not be in the dark. thank you so much. well, the hostage release is now delayed until at least friday, and the promised pause in the fighting? that's delayed too, now. but who's going to benefit from this pause, or who might gain a. and what will it mean for this war. ? as soon as friday, the first of 50 women and children held hostage could very well be on their way to freedom. smoke was still rising over gaza today, with strikes continuing until the pause goes into effect. the real question is, who benefits from the pause? here to help us walk through it all, cnn military analyst and retired air force colonel cedric leighton. colonel, so glad you're here. wondering, obviously while the diplomatic process goes forward and negotiations, the military has not stopped. they are planning or strategy or it saying. who would benefit from a pause in the fighting? >> laura, that is a great question. there are so many factors here when you look at this. what the israelis are trying to do is gain as much territory as they possibly can. so, this area of evacuation, this is where all israel told the civilians to go to. well, this is also the area that israel is trying to control, right through this part of northern gaza. so, when you look at that, you also see the route down south. with the pause, the palestinians, specifically hamas, are benefiting from this. what they can do is bring their forces into all these different areas and what the israelis are doing right now before the pause is trying to soften up the territory. all this action you saw today is done in a way so israel can move its military forward or take advantage of certain tactical positions and move their forces into an area where they can possibly control the movement of the hamas fighters. that is one of the big things they are trying to do. if they are successful, they can control the action once the pause is in effect. >> one of the things we've learned is there was radio silence at some point with hamas, even with qatar, trying to negotiate back the hostages, and they were angry about what had happened at the al-shifa hospital, the damage that ensued. walk us through a little bit about that damage and why that may have been that pause. >> yes, so, this is quite interesting because the red dots right here, this red area, that is the damage that occurred from -- basically, over the past month from october 7th to november 10th. the yellow area is the damage that has occurred since november the 10th. what you are seeing here is damage that actually is really concentrated on the areas that were forced to evacuate. also, the populated areas. all of this is the most populated part of gaza. so, the 2.2 or so million people in gaza, about 1.7 million have gone down to these areas, right here, in order to escape all of this. that is the main reason that they have done that. as far as al-shifa is concerned, the real issue that they have had is really working through all of the different areas of the al-shifa hospital. it is one of the areas right and here, other auspices are in this area as well. notice that they are right near for all these tunnels are. >> we don't know right now where the hostages are, but when they are released, red cross will be able to see these hostages, might know where they have been kept, which strikes me as a very odd concession for hamas to make, unless there is some tactical recently would provide the information. >> that is an interesting point. up until now, you are right, we have no idea where the hostages are. even hamas says they don't know where all of them are because they are different groups, in addition to hamas, there is the palestinian islamic jihad. there are other islamic groups part of this whole mixed -- there are criminal groups that may possibly also be holding some hostages. so, there are a lot of things going on in the political realm, as well as all of this. when it comes to all of this, one of the key things that you have is the fact that these tunnels are part of where, possibly, many of the hostages have been held. this gives you a bit of an idea of the narrow entrances. as this advances, you will see some of the different things that these tunnels contained because these tunnels are part of the force protection methods that hamas has used for their own forces, plus they have also been able to use the tunnels to not only store weapons, possibly have a command and control node in these areas, which won't look like an american control and committed to note. it controls the forces and move them forward, moves them back, gives them direction. that is the kind of thing that hamas is able to do with these kinds of tunnels, with these kinds of installations. it becomes really important. they have some pretty permanent stuff here like bathrooms and other areas where they can work, so it becomes something that is a little bit different from what we would literally -- usually associate with. this is the kind of thing that israeli forces have to go through in order to win this effort. >> strikes me as tunnels for hamas, none for the civilians at all. >> that's correct. >> no protection for the, even by those who are supposed to get there. educating dinky down match. really important to hear from you, colonel. jamie foxx has been accused of sexual assault in a new lawsuit over an alleged incident back in 2015. what his accuser is saying happened, next. jamie foxx is now facing sexual assault and battery charges in a lawsuit filed on monday with the new york state supreme court. the alleged incident occurred in a new york city restaurant back in 2015, according to a complaint obtained by cnn. cnn has reached out to jamie foxx says representatives and the plaintive. fox is one of several celebrities facing accusations under new york's adult survivors act, which allows adult survivors of sexual assault one ear to file lawsuits against their alleged perpetrators. it is set to expire on friday. more than 2500 lawsuits have been filed, so far, under the law. let's talk about what cnn legal analyst and criminal defense attorney, the great joey jackson. joey, happy to have your expertise, here. you and i have talked about these cases, not these specific ones, but in general, delayed reporting cases. the notoriously difficulties that you have with these cases. does this deadline happening make you think it will be the floodgates opening. >> yes, without question, laura. good to be with you. what new york did was they got a one-year look back. so, cases that would have otherwise been out based on the statute of limitations, new york and the legislation, the governor, extended that. now, you can look at cases that would have been time art, and that is what they are doing. when assets you have a form of relief for those who feel they have been aggrieved in the past, it is not surprising those who may not have wanted to come forward for whatever reason at a prior time, now have the ability to do so. the issue is how those cases are going to be proven moving forward, and will they be adequately addressed, based upon the nature of the evidence when they get to a courtroom? >> as a defense attorney, does the 11th hour sort of reporting, and the filing of the complaint, does that aid or undermine the credibility? how would you use it? >> i think credibility is always at issue. i wouldn't take credit or credibility for granted or anything else as it relates to late reporting. people have a variety of reasons why they might not want to come forward. i think the real issue is, what is the evidence, right? and is that evidence stale? will they be able to, that is the alleged victims, to have the goods to come forward? was there a recent outcry to a friend, a family member, a relative on their texts or other things? are there surveillance? i believe, goes to the benefit of the defense when you are late reporting, right, because the issues of proof and the nature of the evidence may not be as fresh and that could certainly detriment the plaintiffs, that is, the person suing. but we will see if in the event that that happens. >> four defendants, that is one of the reasons they are so angry at times for these cases, because they don't have the tools, at times, to be able to defend, they say, adequately against the charges against them because of the length of time since the actual allegations were reported to have occurred. also, interesting in a case like this and feel lawsuit with jamie foxx is that the plaintive is suing the restaurant or the alleged incident occurred. it's that pretty unique in a case like this? are you meaning that a business has the duty as well to protect their customers? >> so, i think, laura, you know what it is? everyone and anyone who possibly should or could be accountable, should be embroiled and. so, it is not unique to the extent of, listen, if you have people on your premises, you want to ensure those people are protected. you want to ensure the parties around safeguard their interests. to the extent that they are not, or to the extent that they are not hired adequately, negligent hiring, negligent supervision, and other type series. as you know and an lawsuit, you want to embroil everyone and anyone in order to buttress your claims. we will see what the nature and level of proof is. we live in a very technological world. is there any surveillance? does it still exist if there was? there will be depositions, as you know, that is questioning of those parties who witnessed anything and we will see whether or not jamie fox's case or others, the litigants have the proof to establish their claims. that is always the issue. >> he is not the only one this week where this has happened. last week, we were talking about shaun combs and a case that they are trying to get under the wire, as well. there is so much more, i wonder, ahead that expires on friday. so, joey jackson, in the meantime, have a happy thanksgiving, friend. >> and you, thanks, laura. >> well, controversial comments here at home over the israel-hamas war leaving some people in hot water, or worse. israel weight to pull back, or is the divide deepening? we will talk about it next. he search for epic bargains one grocery store will stop at nothing to make sure you save more on the brands you love. starring produce, and...... you... as the super saver, in....bargain bliss bliss, bliss, bliss todd we talked about this. our deals are just so epic. i know, todd. i know. ♪ grocery outlet bargain market it is a thanksgiving holiday with a lot of people on edge. emotions are running high here at home, especially with what's going on with the israel-hamas war. while there are no credible threats, instances of alleged antisemitism and islamophobia are on the rise. take, for example, this former obama era national security official taunting a food cart vendor in new york. >> it's my business, because i actually know the guy who owns this stuff. >> i'm an american citizen. >> how did you become an american citizen? >> not of your business. i was born here. >> but you are a terrorist. you support terrorism. >> listen, go, i am not supporting terrorism. >> no, you support terrorism. >> go, i am just working. >> you are a terrible person. >> you kill children, not me. >> i kids, what about my kids? i didn't kill children. you know why, if we killed 4000 palestinian kids, you know what? it wasn't enough. it wasn't enough. >> that's a former official, stewart silva with, who has not been arrested by the nypd and charged with a hate crime. he earlier apologized, saying he regrets the whole thing happens. there is susan surrendered, dropped by her talent agency after saying that this at a pro palestinian rally. >> there are a lot of people that are afraid, afraid of being jewish at this time, and are getting a taste of what it feels like to be a muslim and this country, so often subjected to violence. for >> but it's not just words putting us on edge, it is actions, to. a woman in new york has reopened arrested on a hate crime charges after allegedly attacking a man and his son wearing a palestinian scarf. the nypd is investigating after the front of a synagogue was vandalized with antisemitic graffiti. i want to bring in our cnn senior national security analyst, juliette cayenne. and journalist a former fox news, geraldo rivera. i am glad to have both of you here. all these instances are distinct and get there is some connective tissue. we know that, there are trenches of what is happening, right now, with islamophobia, antisemitism. let me ask you, first, julia. the tension is high. it is actually very palpable for so many people, and it seems that with the rising tension, people are doubling down. it concerns me. >> it should. and i think part of it is that the language of annihilation being used, both by people who are criticizing israel and people who are criticizing hamas, is perceived by, either israelis or palestinians, as one which -- you know, the other wants to get rid of us. i have been writing about this. what is different about this language is this language of essentially, we can get rid of you, right? whether hamas does a tear attack against israel, or, i have to admit, some of the very indiscriminate language being used by senior members of the netanyahu cabinet that make it sound like, if you are actually listening, that there are not enough palestinians dead. i think that is then amplified here in the u.s., not that it is organized, just people that believe that is an acceptable thing -- way to talk. look, the palestinians aren't going away. the israelis aren't going away. someone -- we need to figure out a solution that will not kill everyone. i think we, here in the u.s., have the luxury of trying to assist in that transition, rather than amplify it in a country that has benefited from its own diversity. >> let me ask you, geraldo, on. this there is a difference between something illegal and people making statements that are controversial. yet, there are consequences, as we all know, for speech in this country, although that is a tension people have. the consequences may not be criminal action, but there are at times, threats to one's career, once legacy, what happens in their homes and beyond. what should the consequences be? >> well, the guy who said 4000 palestinian children died was not enough, clearly, is guilty, in mind feel, of a hate crime. those who are offended by susan morant and, on the other hand, i think are overreacting. now, i hesitate to add that the jewish people have a right to overreact, since october 7th was the bloodiest day in terms of the jewish people since the holocaust. babies mutilated from, so on and so forth. susan surrounded is one thing. you can overreact to students rendon, who has been kind of a peace left in a business that is, so far, left. she is the leftist of all of them. you shouldn't be surprised, she voted for nader and campaign for him in 2000. after 9/11, she opposed the interventions in afghanistan and iraq and a cop funeral a couple of years ago, she said the cops gathered at the funeral and were fascists. she sometimes goes up the deep end, but that, in my view, is protected speech. she is maybe obnoxious, but she is a great actress. i think that people should not be canceled for what they say, but when someone goes to a muslim man and points in his face and says, 4000 dead children is not enough, that is a sick dude who deserves a kick in the butt, laura. >> juliette, that man was working. he was at his place of employment, to have someone approached him in that way, i don't what happened before or after. frankly, the words alone make me not want to know what happened before. the consequences should very well be apparent when someone does that. we are hearing a lot of this, not just on the video or at a rally, but a lot of it happens on social media platforms. the benefit of anonymity, of things being amplified in ways and going viral in echo chambers. that contributes to a concern about what could come, next. >> that's exactly it. this is how radicalization happens. then, that is a small sliver of that that then becomes violent extremism. the emphasis is on violence, right? radical people, extreme people, you really can't do that much about it. it is that group that will turn to violence. the larger that pool is, the more amplifications they have, the more they have a sense that they are in a community, that they are not alone wolf, that this is unacceptable behavior, the more than it is likely that at least one of them will turn to violence. this is what we have seen throughout, in terms of white supremacy. we know that tone and language of people and leadership matters, it matters at the -- if the senator talks a same way as that guy we saw on the street. it matters if a palestinian congresswoman uses language that will be perceived as the language of annihilation for jewish americans. so, it is incumbent on those of us who are speaking, both just not speak in that language, and secondly, not to amplify it. social media, we know how not todo not respond to it. it shocked me that people still do this. >> let me get you in here, geraldo. i wonder, with what is going on diplomatically with israel and hamas, if the tone and tenor of our conversations, here in the united states, will mirror the diplomacy that might be happening there, at least for negotiations. are we in our own space, now? >> i just want to very briefly say, for the first time in my 80 years, this is an existential threat. many jewish people are perceiving this as really a threat to their very existence, kids going to college and so forth. so, in terms of what is going on in israel, that is absolutely heartbreaking. these kinds of negotiations are so fragile. it seems to me, i am very worried that this is wallpapering over a real problem with these negotiations. our expectations, our hopes, our aspirations for the women and children, for goodness sakes being freed, raced to a pitch where all the anchors have gathered in tel aviv and jerusalem, leading fort this joyous occasion. the 50 women and children being released, now, that has been delayed at least 24 hours, 48 hours. i just hope that it doesn't keep slipping. it is a dam-able problem, i don't know how they will figure it out, or find a way out of it. this is a -- every scenario is grim and pessimistic. >> it is unimaginable what is happening, hopefully there is hope with the horizon for those families. thank you both, juliette kayyem and geraldo rivera. we will be right back. in just a few hours, the biggest parade of the entire era kicks off in new york city. it is the 97th annual macy's thanksgiving day parade, led by a marching band from an alabama hbcu. alabama exude over city marching maroon and white band. i want to bring in the director of the alabama a&m marching band, carleton right. also, the trombone section leader, senior brand yell jones, and saxophone section leader, senior harrison hendrix. i'm so glad that all of you are here with me, tonight. first of all, congratulations. what a major thing to be involved and. carleton, begin by telling me the story. i want to know how you nabbed this very special spot for such a beloved american tradition, or really -- were really the whole world might be watching. >> okay, well, first of all, thank you, laura, for bringing us on. i must say that i am a fan and what you every night and i enjoy your show, your reporting and everything, so thank you. >> thank you! >> you are very welcome. it was two years ago in 2021, i was sitting down watching the macy's thanksgiving parade and my alma matter, was in the parade, as well as the university of alabama. so, after those two groups finished their performances, i decided to pull out my laptop and go to macy's website and see what it would take for us to apply. luckily, the application was right there and life so i just started filling in some stuff and over a period of months, maybe five or six weeks or so, it took me that long to get all of the interest into the application and send it off. so, i waited nervously and after we heard back from them, maybe early march or late february in 2022, when we got the news that we were selected. so, that was the whole process, watching the parade and the idea came to my head to try it out. >> i love the idea of, might not us? because, you knew how talented your group of students are. so, why not them? to have the foresight to say, let's try, i love it. randy all, i hear you will be rehearsing in the middle of the night before the parade. look, i don't have the talent to do. i keep very late hours. to do what you are about to do tomorrow's incredible. you are a section leader. how will you get your section ready for this moment? >> from, i think we are already ready. we have been ready for so long. this season has been so long, this is just a highly anticipated moment. we think we just talked about it earlier and we said, we are ready. i think it will be hard for us to go to sleep, rather than waking up. like we, are just so excited. we know we are performing for literally millions of people. i have no words, i am just speechless. we are chittering right now. we are so excited. we are ready. >> i'm so excited for you. i would be thrilled, i don't think i would get any sleep either. they say you state ready, you don't get ready. what i hear about your marching band is that you are already ready and will have such a phenomenal performance, i just know it. harris, let me ask you this. harrison, what is it like to wrap and hbcu at a national event like this in particular? >> it's an honor to represent hbcu at the macy's day parade because everything that we have come through over the years. to be able to have an hbcu fantasy leading parade is an honor. love the founder of our school was a slave, so -- performing on this live stage. >> it's a really important point and truly an honor to watch you all perform. is anyone going to give me, carleton, right now a preview of what we will see, or are you keeping it under wraps? >> well, just a little bit. we are going to do a -- i guess a hip pop version, of the nutcracker. it will feature -- >> a little twist. >> yes, a little twist. it will feature pretty much one of our halftime routines, but harrison is actually on the -- routine committee, and he helped to create the choreography for this. it will be like an hbcu halftime performance, i think everyone will enjoy it. >> i can't wait. who is joining you? i hear some big names might beat with you as well. branyelle? the >> hacked surely, john parties, we are
