James sets a challenge

Scott:
now you is but a cog in the big wheel of bureaucracy

James:
You're one little strand of red tape, tangled up in the massive federal red tape ball...

You're a red tape worm.

(Oh, I am so getting punched for that one...)

Scott:
And not just any punch but one using my new steam-driven automated mechanical punching arm.

James:
My dear boy, that fanciful contraption will never work. And to prove it, I offer you a wager: that you shall be unable to circumnavigate the globe in eighty days, using your machine to punch a native of every country along the equator. Jeeves! More tea here! If you lose, sir, you promise to never invent again!

Scott:
Why I accept your challenge good sir! I shall return with my machine in 80 days time having proved beyond doubt that automated steam powered punching is the way of the future! Charles, inflate my dirigible! We leave at once!
