XXX: "My name is XXX, and I want you to find my little girl Wednesday."

XXX: "Wednesday is her name."

Sgt. Haley: "Oh, and I suppose you're gonna tell me her middle name is Thursday, huh?"

9. Who is speaking?

"Indeed – it could be argued that the Sermon on the Mount, had it been a government report, would almost certainly not have been published. A most irresponsible document. All that stuff about the meek inheriting the Earth could do irreparable damage to the defence budget."

Explanation

The correct answer is Sir Humphrey in the British comedy "Yes, Minister!" because the statement reflects the character's tendency to prioritize bureaucratic interests and dismiss unconventional ideas. Sir Humphrey's sarcastic remark about the Sermon on the Mount highlights his skepticism towards policies that may challenge established norms and potentially impact government spending. This aligns with his role as a senior civil servant who often manipulates situations to maintain the status quo and protect the interests of the government.
