B.A., I need you to get the document from the SharePoint portal. The freedom of the free world depends on it!
I’ll get it done, Hannibal.

Give me this document, fool!
I don’t know you. You don’t have a token. You scare me. Can you get someone I trust to tell me who you are?

This fool says I scare him! You’re an Identity Provider he trusts. Tell him I’m cool!
Ok, let me go talk to the Secure Token Service and get a token for you.

Let me look up his record…Ok, here’s a token where I verify all of these claims.
