Secretary Lutnick. Correct. The point was, if you emailed that email, it was to Matthew Gilbert. Everyone learned that he would respond to them. Sometimes he would do it on his own. Sometimes he would do it in mine. But it was always just to him. I didn't even read them. I didn't see them. Mr. Spectre. Thank you. BY MR. EMMER: Q And this relates to the blocking of the views of the park from your townhome. Is that right? A Yes. The Frick was -- is an architecturally important structure built around the turn of the century, or something like that, and it was beautiful. And they, the museum, had wanted to knock down parts of it and build a high-rise, which we found unusual and bothersome. Q And you may have discussed this in your opening statement, but why did you reach out to Epstein related to the Frick? A So the way the block works is there is a multi-unit co-op that is the first building inside the number one or number three, and then there is Jeffrey Epstein's townhouse, and then mine and then others on the other side. There was a group of owners, tenants, people who lived in that building who were fighting the Frick building it. They contacted me after a while. And then at some point they asked me if I could contact Epstein to have him be involved. But it was just neighbor -- they contacted me, asked me to contact him. But by asking me, they asked, effectively, Matthew Gilbert, who then contacted him. Q Secretary Lutnick, the majority's hour is coming to an end. I want to ask you some general questions as it relates to Mr. Epstein's crimes. For the record, did you ever witness Mr. Epstein have sexual contact of any kind with any young woman or girl?
