that on this issue

president foster and i
have agreed to disagree.

General Lloyd stated

00:01:58,919 --> 00:02:01,322
that the president's lack
of support of the military
10
00:02:01,355 --> 00:02:04,258
would leave the country
vulnerable and crippled

at this time of
high global uncertainty.
12

The president wants to
shrink the armed forces
13
00:02:09,697 --> 00:02:12,700
and put this peace dividend
into his domestic program.

there is no...

of anyone else having it.

why he did it,
and neither do I.

But somehow, it all...
117
00:07:54,542 --> 00:07:58,512
Comes down to
me being a bad father.

129
00:08:36,516 --> 00:08:38,485
Mr. president,
can you tell us
130
00:08:38,518 --> 00:08:41,488
what you thought of
the latest CNN poll?
131
00:08:41,521 --> 00:08:44,491
My chief of staff,
miss corcoran,
likes to say
132
00:08:44,524 --> 00:08:48,228
that a poll
is what you hang
a politician from.
133
00:08:48,261 --> 00:08:50,230
I don't pay
attention to them.
134
00:08:50,263 --> 00:08:52,232
It's a different
number every day.
135
00:08:52,265 --> 00:08:53,734
One last question.
Helen.
136
00:08:53,767 --> 00:08:55,669
General Lloyd has
publicly accused you
137
00:08:55,703 --> 00:08:58,338
of turning your back
on the military.
138
00:08:58,371 --> 00:09:00,007
Would you care
to comment?
139
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:02,943
General Lloyd's remarks
were taken out of context
140
00:09:02,976 --> 00:09:04,945
and blown way out of
proportion.
141
00:09:04,978 --> 00:09:06,947
But make no mistake
about it...
142
00:09:06,980 --> 00:09:08,515
The general
was freelancing.
143
00:09:08,548 --> 00:09:11,518
But I am smart enough
to know
144
00:09:11,551 --> 00:09:14,487
when I'm being shot at
by a professional,
145
00:09:14,521 --> 00:09:16,456
and I'm still
in one piece.
146
00:09:16,489 --> 00:09:18,458
Thank you for asking.
147
00:09:18,491 --> 00:09:20,360
Thank you.
148
00:09:22,129 --> 00:09:25,198
Well, Betsy,
from one herd of
jackals to the next.
149
00:09:25,232 --> 00:09:26,767
The cabinet,
Mr. president.
150
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:28,268
With 29%
approval rating,
151
00:09:28,301 --> 00:09:30,971
you can't tell them
what to do.
152
00:09:31,004 --> 00:09:33,974
If you don't build
a consensus,
you pay a price.
153
00:09:34,007 --> 00:09:37,310
I thought the cabinet
was supposed to be
the president's team.
154
00:09:37,344 --> 00:09:38,812
You bet.
155
00:09:38,846 --> 00:09:40,347
Ladies and gentlemen.
156
00:09:41,849 --> 00:09:43,383
Steven.
157
00:09:43,416 --> 00:09:45,052
Harry.
158
00:09:45,085 --> 00:09:49,256
We have a lot of ground
to cover in a short time,
as usual,
159
00:09:49,289 --> 00:09:51,992
so I suggest we get
started right away.
160
00:09:52,025 --> 00:09:54,494
Let's begin
with something easy--
161
00:09:54,527 --> 00:09:56,396
taxes.
162
00:09:57,931 --> 00:09:59,733
Well, as you all know,
163
00:09:59,767 --> 00:10:02,502
I have on my desk
right now
164
00:10:02,535 --> 00:10:06,406
a bill that gives
a huge budget increase
to the military.
165
00:10:06,439 --> 00:10:08,508
Suppose I just don't
sign it?
166
00:10:08,541 --> 00:10:10,410
Suppose some of that
167
00:10:10,443 --> 00:10:13,480
goes over to domestic,
to farm subsidies,
168
00:10:13,513 --> 00:10:15,015
to policing our streets?
169
00:10:15,048 --> 00:10:17,818
Do you really think
that's wise, sir?
170
00:10:17,851 --> 00:10:20,520
I don't know, art.
What do you think?
171
00:10:20,553 --> 00:10:22,690
If you do that,
Mr. president,
172
00:10:22,723 --> 00:10:26,026
I'm told that
our readiness
and force structure
173
00:10:26,059 --> 00:10:27,527
will suffer
severely.
174
00:10:27,560 --> 00:10:30,630
That sounds just like
general Lloyd's
position.
175
00:10:30,664 --> 00:10:33,033
If you veto
that bill,
Mr. president,
176
00:10:33,066 --> 00:10:35,602
you will get a huge
public reaction.
177
00:10:35,635 --> 00:10:37,771
Then I'll take
the heat, Tom.
178
00:10:37,805 --> 00:10:40,473
I know most of you
don't like this idea.
179
00:10:40,507 --> 00:10:44,044
And I'm not going to
ask for a show of hands,
180
00:10:44,077 --> 00:10:47,514
but I will need
the support of
everyone in this room.
181
00:10:47,547 --> 00:10:50,583
We're going to need
to pull together
on this.
182
00:10:52,052 --> 00:10:54,554
Now let's be clear...
183
00:10:54,587 --> 00:10:56,957
About what we will not do.
184
00:10:58,926 --> 00:11:01,061
We will not any longer
185
00:11:01,094 --> 00:11:03,997
defer our urgent
domestic needs
186
00:11:04,031 --> 00:11:09,502
in order to satisfy
the inflated demands
of the military.
187
00:11:09,536 --> 00:11:14,007
We will not add
$40-60 billion to the budget
188
00:11:14,041 --> 00:11:17,845
without having any idea
where the money's coming from.
189
00:11:18,979 --> 00:11:22,750
I ran on a pledge
to cut the deficit.
190
00:11:22,783 --> 00:11:26,019
That's why we're
all here today.
191
00:11:26,053 --> 00:11:29,823
I'm going to do it...
Or I'll die trying.
192
00:11:31,558 --> 00:11:33,560
Uh, let's not talk
about death.
193
00:11:33,593 --> 00:11:35,528
Taxes is depressing
enough.
194
00:11:35,562 --> 00:11:38,531
Why, Walter,
i always thought that death
195
00:11:38,565 --> 00:11:40,734
was a vice-presidential
obsession.
196
00:11:47,574 --> 00:11:49,042
Where is it written
197
00:11:49,076 --> 00:11:51,378
that if your president's
from the heartland,
198
00:11:51,411 --> 00:11:55,648
your vice-president
has to be a back room
boy from the east?
199
00:11:55,682 --> 00:11:57,050
It was a winning
combination.
200
00:11:57,084 --> 00:11:58,551
But a terrible
marriage.
201
00:11:58,585 --> 00:12:01,554
I should have
gone with
Charlie Potter.
202
00:12:01,588 --> 00:12:03,490
He gets things done.
203
00:12:03,523 --> 00:12:04,992
Are we pushing
too hard?
204
00:12:05,025 --> 00:12:06,994
We don't
have a choice.
205
00:12:07,027 --> 00:12:08,996
If things don't
change remarkably,
206
00:12:09,029 --> 00:12:11,398
there won't be
a second term.
207
00:12:14,034 --> 00:12:16,269
We've come
a long way, Betsy.
208
00:12:17,537 --> 00:12:20,507
I couldn't have
done it without you.
209
00:12:20,540 --> 00:12:22,409
Thank you, sir.
210
00:12:31,051 --> 00:12:32,519
Central command.
211
00:12:32,552 --> 00:12:34,021
Yeah.
212
00:12:34,054 --> 00:12:36,523
It's colonel Casey
from the joint staff.
213
00:12:36,556 --> 00:12:39,026
I need the deputy
commander, please.
214
00:12:39,059 --> 00:12:40,527
O'Malley.
215
00:12:40,560 --> 00:12:42,029
Colonel O'Malley.
Yeah.
216
00:12:42,062 --> 00:12:44,531
We noticed a little
item up here
217
00:12:44,564 --> 00:12:47,534
preparing a readiness
report for the alert
this weekend.
218
00:12:47,567 --> 00:12:49,536
It's just a routine
exercise,
219
00:12:49,569 --> 00:12:52,539
but it says here
you guys ordered
live ammo.
220
00:12:52,572 --> 00:12:54,541
Not exactly standard.
221
00:12:54,574 --> 00:12:56,043
Well, that's classified.
222
00:12:56,076 --> 00:12:57,544
Excuse me?
223
00:12:57,577 --> 00:12:59,546
I'm sorry, colonel.
No one but
general Allen
224
00:12:59,579 --> 00:13:02,049
is authorized
to discuss
that operation.
225
00:13:02,082 --> 00:13:03,984
Maybe you can
call back tomorrow.
226
00:13:04,017 --> 00:13:06,019
Sure.
tomorrow's fine.
227
00:13:09,022 --> 00:13:09,990
[Ring]
228
00:13:10,023 --> 00:13:10,991
Hello.
Walter.
229
00:13:11,024 --> 00:13:12,059
Yeah.
230
00:13:12,092 --> 00:13:13,060
Mac Casey.
231
00:13:13,093 --> 00:13:15,062
Hey, Mac.
The rising star.
232
00:13:15,095 --> 00:13:16,763
I got the duty.
233
00:13:16,796 --> 00:13:18,265
How's the puzzle
palace?
234
00:13:18,298 --> 00:13:19,466
Look, Walt...
235
00:13:19,499 --> 00:13:22,469
I'm checking out
this live ammo request.
236
00:13:22,502 --> 00:13:25,505
Jesus, Mac.
I wish you guys
would get it together.
237
00:13:25,538 --> 00:13:29,742
You added the live ammo
for your slam dunk
thing. Remember?
238
00:13:29,776 --> 00:13:30,743
For slam dunk.
239
00:13:30,777 --> 00:13:32,512
Yeah. it's
the damnedest thing.
240
00:13:32,545 --> 00:13:34,714
We're training
more for seizure
than defense.
241
00:13:35,715 --> 00:13:36,884
Come.
242
00:13:40,553 --> 00:13:41,621
Mac.
243
00:13:41,654 --> 00:13:44,024
This will only
take a moment.
244
00:13:44,057 --> 00:13:48,028
Yesterday,
i ran across a little
glitch in the printouts.
245
00:13:48,061 --> 00:13:51,031
There was live ammo
ordered for some
operation
246
00:13:51,064 --> 00:13:53,533
called slam dunk?
247
00:13:53,566 --> 00:13:56,103
I'm sorry you got
left out, Mac.
248
00:13:56,136 --> 00:14:01,041
It was the president's
idea to keep this one
on the short list.
249
00:14:01,074 --> 00:14:03,610
Slam dunk
is a covert exercise
250
00:14:03,643 --> 00:14:05,312
we're running with
the CIA.
251
00:14:05,345 --> 00:14:07,480
It's extremely
sensitive, Mac...
252
00:14:07,514 --> 00:14:09,849
Extremely sensitive.
253
00:14:09,883 --> 00:14:11,484
A team is practicing
254
00:14:11,518 --> 00:14:14,487
to go into
a third world country
255
00:14:14,521 --> 00:14:16,356
to seize
a nuclear weapon.
256
00:14:16,389 --> 00:14:20,027
I could
show you the file
if you're curious.
257
00:14:20,060 --> 00:14:22,462
I wouldn't mind
taking a look. Thanks.
258
00:14:24,031 --> 00:14:25,532
Can I have it now,
sir?
259
00:14:25,565 --> 00:14:28,101
I'll shoot it to you
e-mail.
260
00:14:28,135 --> 00:14:30,403
You'll have it
tomorrow morning.
261
00:14:37,044 --> 00:14:38,946
Thank you, sir.
262
00:14:43,550 --> 00:14:44,884
Standby.
263
00:14:58,565 --> 00:15:00,533
15 points down.
264
00:15:00,567 --> 00:15:02,802
Take a shot
or give it up.
265
00:15:15,515 --> 00:15:17,650
So what was your
program today?
266
00:15:21,021 --> 00:15:22,722
I saw the therapist.
267
00:15:24,591 --> 00:15:25,658
Yeah?
268
00:15:29,029 --> 00:15:31,131
Like her?
269
00:15:32,699 --> 00:15:34,734
Well, she's o.K.
270
00:15:36,036 --> 00:15:38,305
Don't lock
your knees.
271
00:15:47,047 --> 00:15:49,682
Did she ask you
lots of questions?
272
00:15:49,716 --> 00:15:52,019
Well, sh-she asked if
273
00:15:52,052 --> 00:15:54,521
I felt a rush...
274
00:15:54,554 --> 00:15:56,889
When I was stealing.
275
00:15:56,923 --> 00:16:00,393
And I told her
i felt awful.
276
00:16:00,427 --> 00:16:03,096
And she says, "why?"
277
00:16:04,831 --> 00:16:07,467
And I say...
278
00:16:07,500 --> 00:16:09,269
"'Cause...
279
00:16:09,302 --> 00:16:10,970
I knew
I'd get caught."
280
00:16:11,004 --> 00:16:13,106
Take your hands
out your pocket.
281
00:16:13,140 --> 00:16:15,175
Take a shot.
282
00:16:17,410 --> 00:16:19,346
Then she says...
283
00:16:19,379 --> 00:16:21,448
"Why did you do it?"
284
00:16:21,481 --> 00:16:23,983
And you say...
285
00:16:24,017 --> 00:16:25,452
What?
286
00:16:25,485 --> 00:16:27,487
'Cause...
287
00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:28,988
'Cause i--
288
00:16:29,022 --> 00:16:31,291
'cause i
couldn't stop.
289
00:16:32,525 --> 00:16:35,795
And she asked
how we get along.
290
00:16:41,034 --> 00:16:43,236
How do we get along?
291
00:16:45,038 --> 00:16:47,440
You're close
to fouling out.
292
00:16:53,546 --> 00:16:56,015
Try to stay
in the game, Todd.
293
00:16:56,049 --> 00:16:58,385
Try to stay
in the game.
294
00:17:01,054 --> 00:17:03,523
Take your shot
or give it up.
295
00:17:18,004 --> 00:17:21,007
I don't think
the son of a bitch
can shut up
296
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:24,144
even if he wants to.
He's a born
politician...
297
00:17:24,177 --> 00:17:26,179
And not
a bad one at that.
298
00:17:26,213 --> 00:17:29,549
Name one successful
general who isn't.
299
00:17:29,582 --> 00:17:32,485
Well, I've rapidly
lost my appetite
for the daily battle.
300
00:17:32,519 --> 00:17:34,987
What would happen
to my poll numbers
301
00:17:35,021 --> 00:17:37,990
if I were to fire
a living legend?
302
00:17:38,024 --> 00:17:39,492
You'd become nostalgic
303
00:17:39,526 --> 00:17:41,994
for the days
when you had 29%.
304
00:17:42,028 --> 00:17:43,496
On the upside,
305
00:17:43,530 --> 00:17:46,499
Lloyd will be
retiring soon
with full honors,
306
00:17:46,533 --> 00:17:48,501
and you'll have
one less problem,
307
00:17:48,535 --> 00:17:51,003
though replacing him
may be a problem
308
00:17:51,037 --> 00:17:53,340
since you've almost
run out of women.
309
00:17:53,373 --> 00:17:54,841
Very good,
Mr. secretary.
310
00:17:54,874 --> 00:17:57,644
Where would I be
without you, Charlie?
311
00:17:57,677 --> 00:18:01,314
I've been advised,
general, to fire you.
312
00:18:03,316 --> 00:18:06,353
I frankly know
of no reason why, sir.
313
00:18:08,321 --> 00:18:12,091
But you know I serve
at your disposal,
Mr. president.
314
00:18:12,125 --> 00:18:14,961
Yes, but you've gone
and got yourself
315
00:18:14,994 --> 00:18:16,463
a pretty good
constituency.
316
00:18:16,496 --> 00:18:19,466
I'm asking a lot of
the American people
already.
317
00:18:19,499 --> 00:18:21,434
I can't
liquidate their
captain marvel.
318
00:18:21,468 --> 00:18:22,702
[Chuckles]
319
00:18:24,304 --> 00:18:26,973
The people want to know
they're defended.
320
00:18:27,006 --> 00:18:30,210
They are,
at a cost of 230
billion a year.
321
00:18:30,243 --> 00:18:32,712
May I remind you,
Mr. president,
322
00:18:32,745 --> 00:18:35,482
that the sole purpose
of our military
323
00:18:35,515 --> 00:18:37,484
is to wage and win wars
324
00:18:37,517 --> 00:18:39,986
and protect our shores
from foreign aggressors?
325
00:18:40,019 --> 00:18:42,489
You are a compassionate
man, sir,
326
00:18:42,522 --> 00:18:44,491
but you are
withholding funds
327
00:18:44,524 --> 00:18:46,493
which will leave
our military degraded.
328
00:18:46,526 --> 00:18:48,995
You are recklessly
placing this nation
329
00:18:49,028 --> 00:18:50,997
in a position
of weakness.
330
00:18:51,030 --> 00:18:53,132
And may I remind
you, general,
331
00:18:53,166 --> 00:18:55,835
that I, with the help
of congress,
332
00:18:55,868 --> 00:18:57,970
will make policy.
333
00:18:58,004 --> 00:19:00,273
You will follow it.
334
00:19:00,307 --> 00:19:03,109
If you want my job,
go out and get
yourself elected!
335
00:19:03,142 --> 00:19:05,778
I have no interest
in becoming president.
336
00:19:05,812 --> 00:19:09,649
My sole concern
is there be
a country left to defend.
337
00:19:09,682 --> 00:19:12,185
Another war's coming,
and when it does,
338
00:19:12,219 --> 00:19:15,255
we'll have to call on
Israel to defend us
339
00:19:15,288 --> 00:19:16,956
because our own forces
340
00:19:16,989 --> 00:19:21,661
will have become impotent
in the interests
of social experiments
341
00:19:21,694 --> 00:19:23,963
and global
public relations.
342
00:19:23,996 --> 00:19:26,466
Keep your opinions
to yourself, general,
343
00:19:26,499 --> 00:19:29,035
or confine them
to this office.
344
00:19:31,003 --> 00:19:32,138
Thank you.
345
00:19:54,627 --> 00:19:58,331
It's after
midnight, right?
Say quarter to 1:00.
346
00:19:58,365 --> 00:20:01,501
I leave her there
parked, right,
in that driveway?
347
00:20:01,534 --> 00:20:04,504
The white house.
It's late at night.
She's alone.
348
00:20:04,537 --> 00:20:06,806
I come back
with this envelope.
349
00:20:06,839 --> 00:20:11,010
I say, "we got to
rush this out to
the CIA at Langley."
350
00:20:11,043 --> 00:20:12,512
And this gets you
laid?
351
00:20:12,545 --> 00:20:15,014
I am 6 for 6
on this.
352
00:20:15,047 --> 00:20:16,015
Uh, yes, sir.
353
00:20:16,048 --> 00:20:17,016
Situation normal?
354
00:20:17,049 --> 00:20:18,518
Uh, yes, sir.
355
00:20:18,551 --> 00:20:20,853
How's the traffic
on the old man
356
00:20:20,887 --> 00:20:22,322
and his betting pool?
357
00:20:22,355 --> 00:20:24,657
Uh, something
came in this morning.
358
00:20:27,260 --> 00:20:29,228
Correct me
if I'm wrong,
359
00:20:29,262 --> 00:20:32,031
but
reagent Alpha one--
360
00:20:32,064 --> 00:20:35,302
that's an advanced
chemical disabling
weapon, right?
361
00:20:35,335 --> 00:20:37,036
Yeah.
what's the point?
362
00:20:37,069 --> 00:20:39,806
It's been o.K.'D
for the alert.
363
00:20:39,839 --> 00:20:42,542
Don't ask me why,
but national command
authorized it.
364
00:20:44,243 --> 00:20:46,479
Punch up where
general Lloyd is. Now.
365
00:21:28,254 --> 00:21:30,256
[Door opens]
366
00:21:33,326 --> 00:21:35,027
[Footsteps]
367
00:21:35,061 --> 00:21:38,598
It was good seeing
you two playing
ball together today.
368
00:21:40,066 --> 00:21:41,901
He's getting better.
369
00:21:44,070 --> 00:21:47,173
He's starting
to realize
what he did wrong.
370
00:21:49,576 --> 00:21:51,544
You know, I'm sorry.
371
00:21:51,578 --> 00:21:54,547
You know, the way
I've been lately.
372
00:21:54,581 --> 00:21:57,750
It's just I've got
so much on my mind.
373
00:22:00,086 --> 00:22:04,156
Is this, um,
about seeing Todd's
therapist tomorrow?
374
00:22:05,758 --> 00:22:07,627
Do we need this?
375
00:22:07,660 --> 00:22:09,629
I don't know
this woman.
376
00:22:09,662 --> 00:22:11,130
She doesn't know us.
377
00:22:11,163 --> 00:22:14,000
She knows Todd.
He likes her.
378
00:22:14,033 --> 00:22:16,002
Said I'd be there.
379
00:22:16,035 --> 00:22:17,804
So I'll be there.
380
00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:22,709
Mac.
381
00:22:26,045 --> 00:22:27,113
Thanks.
382
00:22:33,553 --> 00:22:35,588
[Ring]
383
00:22:37,056 --> 00:22:39,025
[Ring]
384
00:22:39,058 --> 00:22:41,027
Good morning.
Chief of staff's
office.
385
00:22:41,060 --> 00:22:43,029
May I help you?
386
00:22:43,062 --> 00:22:45,031
Chief of staff,
please.
387
00:22:45,064 --> 00:22:46,866
Who's calling,
please?
388
00:22:49,068 --> 00:22:52,038
This is the...
Director of current
operations at the Pentagon,
389
00:22:52,071 --> 00:22:53,540
colonel Mac Casey.
390
00:22:53,573 --> 00:22:55,041
Tell her it's urgent.
391
00:22:55,074 --> 00:22:57,209
And private, please.
Thank you.
392
00:23:05,017 --> 00:23:06,486
What's so urgent?
393
00:23:06,519 --> 00:23:07,487
Betsy?
394
00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:09,989
Betsy, I need
to talk to you.
395
00:23:10,022 --> 00:23:12,492
That's it?
No hello, how are you?
396
00:23:12,525 --> 00:23:13,993
Where are you, anyway?
397
00:23:14,026 --> 00:23:15,495
This is really
important.
398
00:23:15,528 --> 00:23:17,497
It's a matter
of national security.
399
00:23:17,530 --> 00:23:20,500
Aren't you pretty
far out of
channels, Mac?
400
00:23:20,533 --> 00:23:23,002
You have a boss.
Talk to him.
401
00:23:23,035 --> 00:23:24,203
I can't.
402
00:23:24,236 --> 00:23:27,006
Jesus, Mac.
What the hell
is going on?
403
00:23:27,039 --> 00:23:29,008
Can't you give me
some idea?
404
00:23:29,041 --> 00:23:32,011
Yeah. I need to
talk to you in person.
405
00:23:32,044 --> 00:23:33,513
You and everyone else.
406
00:23:33,546 --> 00:23:36,516
Betsy, you've known me
for a long time.
407
00:23:36,549 --> 00:23:39,018
I've been a marine
for 19 years.
408
00:23:39,051 --> 00:23:42,021
By me calling you,
i may be throwing
it all away.
409
00:23:42,054 --> 00:23:44,023
Hang on
for a second, Mac.
410
00:23:44,056 --> 00:23:46,493
[Speaking softly]
411
00:23:46,526 --> 00:23:47,494
Betsy?
412
00:23:47,527 --> 00:23:49,028
Grant memorial. 8:00.
413
00:23:49,061 --> 00:23:51,030
Oh. o.K.
414
00:23:51,063 --> 00:23:53,032
Uh...
415
00:23:53,065 --> 00:23:55,034
Can you make it 8:30?
416
00:23:55,067 --> 00:23:57,637
This is not
a negotiation,
colonel.
417
00:24:00,272 --> 00:24:01,974
O.k.
418
00:24:02,008 --> 00:24:03,476
Grant memorial. 8:00.
419
00:24:03,510 --> 00:24:05,444
See you then. Bye.
420
00:24:09,381 --> 00:24:11,851
Office of
the Attorney General.
Please hold.
421
00:24:11,884 --> 00:24:13,986
Secretary Potter
to see you.
422
00:24:14,020 --> 00:24:14,987
Good morning, Sarah.
423
00:24:15,021 --> 00:24:15,988
Good morning.
424
00:24:16,022 --> 00:24:16,989
How are you?
425
00:24:17,023 --> 00:24:18,991
Fine, thank you,
Mr. secretary.
426
00:24:19,025 --> 00:24:19,992
Good, good.
427
00:24:20,026 --> 00:24:21,994
Charlie, come in.
Sit down.
428
00:24:22,028 --> 00:24:23,930
Thank you, Sarah.
429
00:24:32,038 --> 00:24:33,740
The general tells me
430
00:24:33,773 --> 00:24:36,042
that you have
misgivings, Arthur.
431
00:24:37,544 --> 00:24:41,013
I have always had
misgivings, Charlie.
432
00:24:41,047 --> 00:24:43,015
The constitution is...
433
00:24:43,049 --> 00:24:45,384
Is in my care.
434
00:24:46,919 --> 00:24:49,756
Others before us
have tried to manipulate
the constitution,
435
00:24:49,789 --> 00:24:53,860
but, Jesus, this thing
makes them look like
a Sunday picnic!
436
00:24:53,893 --> 00:24:56,028
I, uh...
437
00:24:56,062 --> 00:25:01,500
I can't be a part
of subverting the
constitution, Charlie--
438
00:25:01,534 --> 00:25:03,970
not as a means
to an end,
439
00:25:04,003 --> 00:25:07,473
even if that end is
saving the country
itself.
440
00:25:07,506 --> 00:25:09,041
Oh, my.
441
00:25:10,777 --> 00:25:12,979
You should reread
the constitution,
Arthur.,
442
00:25:13,012 --> 00:25:15,114
I have.
443
00:25:16,515 --> 00:25:18,985
You unleash
this thing...
444
00:25:19,018 --> 00:25:21,988
How do you know
what will ultimately
happen?
445
00:25:22,021 --> 00:25:24,490
Because I control
what happens.
446
00:25:24,523 --> 00:25:26,993
What if something
goes wrong?
447
00:25:27,026 --> 00:25:30,697
Arthur, nothing
is going to go wrong.
448
00:25:32,031 --> 00:25:33,499
You have a backup
plan.
449
00:25:33,532 --> 00:25:34,967
I don't want to
hear about that,
450
00:25:35,001 --> 00:25:38,004
including that
exercise this Saturday,
you hear?
451
00:25:38,037 --> 00:25:39,839
Very well.
452
00:25:39,872 --> 00:25:42,809
I understand
you have misgivings,
Arthur.
453
00:25:42,842 --> 00:25:45,778
What I need to know is
454
00:25:45,812 --> 00:25:49,015
what do you intend
to do about them?
455
00:25:49,048 --> 00:25:50,049
Nothing.
456
00:25:51,383 --> 00:25:54,553
Do I have
your word on that?
457
00:25:55,554 --> 00:25:56,555
Yes.
458
00:25:58,057 --> 00:26:00,259
Damn you!
459
00:26:00,292 --> 00:26:02,161
I respect that,
Arthur.
460
00:26:20,512 --> 00:26:21,480
Afternoon, general.
461
00:26:21,513 --> 00:26:22,982
Admiral. come on in.
462
00:26:23,015 --> 00:26:24,483
Good afternoon,
general.
463
00:26:24,516 --> 00:26:27,586
Oh, Mac, uh,
you can sit
this one out.
464
00:26:42,534 --> 00:26:45,738
Colonel, there appears
to be a lot of pressure
465
00:26:45,772 --> 00:26:47,006
at home right now.
466
00:26:47,039 --> 00:26:49,508
Todd talks about you
a great deal.
467
00:26:49,541 --> 00:26:52,511
Seems clear
you've always had
a strong relationship.
468
00:26:52,544 --> 00:26:54,513
He's my son
and I love him.
469
00:26:54,546 --> 00:26:58,017
But I don't see
what that's
got to do with this.
470
00:26:58,050 --> 00:26:59,018
Don't you?
471
00:26:59,051 --> 00:27:00,252
Look, doctor,
472
00:27:00,286 --> 00:27:02,789
I'm sure
you're very good
at what you do.
473
00:27:02,822 --> 00:27:05,658
But I don't think
this is getting us
anywhere.
474
00:27:05,692 --> 00:27:10,129
Todd made a mistake.
475
00:27:10,162 --> 00:27:13,766
He's got to deal
with his punishment,
learn from it,
476
00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:15,267
and move on.
477
00:27:15,301 --> 00:27:16,803
Right, Todd?
478
00:27:16,836 --> 00:27:20,239
You and your dad
live by a pretty tough
behavior code,
479
00:27:20,272 --> 00:27:21,573
don't you, Todd?
480
00:27:21,607 --> 00:27:22,909
I guess so.
481
00:27:22,942 --> 00:27:25,144
Did you ever wonder
what would happen
482
00:27:25,177 --> 00:27:27,880
if you failed
to live up to
that code?
483
00:27:27,914 --> 00:27:29,615
I'd get in trouble.
484
00:27:29,648 --> 00:27:32,985
Was it possible
you were trying
to test things,
485
00:27:33,019 --> 00:27:35,988
see if your dad
still loved you
just as much,
486
00:27:36,022 --> 00:27:38,190
even after
you got caught?
487
00:27:38,224 --> 00:27:39,358
Todd.
488
00:27:43,029 --> 00:27:45,497
We'll watch the game
together tonight.
489
00:27:45,531 --> 00:27:46,999
You're leaving?
490
00:27:47,033 --> 00:27:48,467
Now?
491
00:27:49,869 --> 00:27:52,705
I got to go.
I'm really
sorry.
492
00:27:52,739 --> 00:27:54,807
How could you
do this?
493
00:27:54,841 --> 00:27:56,809
I'll be there
for tipoff.
494
00:27:56,843 --> 00:27:58,277
Save me a seat,
huh?
495
00:27:59,545 --> 00:28:00,747
Sorry.
496
00:28:19,799 --> 00:28:22,068
I was just getting
ready to leave.
497
00:28:22,101 --> 00:28:24,771
Anybody but you,
I'd be gone by now.
498
00:28:24,804 --> 00:28:27,840
It wasn't exactly
convenient accommodating
your schedule.
499
00:28:27,874 --> 00:28:29,842
You got exactly
six minutes.
500
00:28:29,876 --> 00:28:31,911
Make it good.
501
00:28:33,279 --> 00:28:36,482
Have you ever heard
of a...Classified
covert exercise
502
00:28:36,515 --> 00:28:39,919
involving the military
and the CIA
called slam dunk?
503
00:28:44,023 --> 00:28:46,793
Could the president
have approved
this exercise
504
00:28:46,826 --> 00:28:48,360
without you
having known?
505
00:28:48,394 --> 00:28:49,862
The political answer?
Sure.
506
00:28:49,896 --> 00:28:51,363
The truth? No.
507
00:28:51,397 --> 00:28:52,932
Last Sunday,
i learned
508
00:28:52,965 --> 00:28:56,102
that general Lloyd
was operating
a betting pool
509
00:28:56,135 --> 00:28:58,004
over the NBA playoffs.
510
00:28:58,037 --> 00:29:00,506
Pentagon's always
got betting pools.
So what?
511
00:29:00,539 --> 00:29:03,542
The general told me
he doesn't even know
who's playing.
512
00:29:03,575 --> 00:29:05,544
Betsy, that's not
like him.
513
00:29:05,577 --> 00:29:07,679
He's never
lied to me before.
514
00:29:08,981 --> 00:29:11,951
The same day,
i noticed that, um...
515
00:29:11,984 --> 00:29:14,020
Live ammunition
had been ordered
516
00:29:14,053 --> 00:29:15,554
for this weekend's
alert.
517
00:29:15,587 --> 00:29:18,090
So I did some
checking,
518
00:29:18,124 --> 00:29:20,159
and I found out
two things.
519
00:29:20,192 --> 00:29:23,462
First--that they
were training more
for seizure
520
00:29:23,495 --> 00:29:24,964
than for protection,
521
00:29:24,997 --> 00:29:26,632
second--
522
00:29:26,665 --> 00:29:29,969
this live ammunition
was ordered for
this operation slam dunk.
523
00:29:30,002 --> 00:29:31,037
And?
524
00:29:31,070 --> 00:29:33,039
I talked to the general.
525
00:29:33,072 --> 00:29:34,974
Told him that...
526
00:29:35,007 --> 00:29:37,977
There must have been
a communications glitch,
527
00:29:38,010 --> 00:29:40,980
because I was not
informed of the situation.
528
00:29:41,013 --> 00:29:42,481
And?
529
00:29:42,514 --> 00:29:47,086
He said that
the president wanted
the list short on this.
530
00:29:47,119 --> 00:29:49,922
Said he'd send me
the file,
but he hasn't.
531
00:29:49,956 --> 00:29:51,490
Go on.
532
00:29:51,523 --> 00:29:52,992
General Lloyd...
533
00:29:53,025 --> 00:29:54,994
Has been meeting
privately
534
00:29:55,027 --> 00:29:57,496
with secretary Potter,
535
00:29:57,529 --> 00:29:59,631
other members
of the cabinet.
536
00:29:59,665 --> 00:30:01,067
Doesn't add up.
537
00:30:01,100 --> 00:30:04,003
You have absolutely
nothing but your
own conjecture.
538
00:30:04,036 --> 00:30:06,005
Standard exercise
calls for 10,000 men.
539
00:30:06,038 --> 00:30:09,008
This weekend,
we're deploying
100,000 troops
540
00:30:09,041 --> 00:30:12,912
into the 12
major cities
of this country.
541
00:30:16,048 --> 00:30:17,716
And there's
one more thing.
542
00:30:17,749 --> 00:30:19,518
What's that?
543
00:30:19,551 --> 00:30:22,821
The troops
have been armed
with chemical weapons.
544
00:30:22,855 --> 00:30:25,691
I need to talk
to the president.
545
00:30:33,532 --> 00:30:35,034
Hi.
546
00:30:35,067 --> 00:30:36,535
How are you?
547
00:30:36,568 --> 00:30:38,037
Good to see you.
548
00:30:38,070 --> 00:30:40,539
And now, our guest
this evening,
549
00:30:40,572 --> 00:30:42,541
Arthur Daniels,
550
00:30:42,574 --> 00:30:45,611
the Attorney General
of the United States.
551
00:30:45,644 --> 00:30:48,347
Always a pleasure,
ma'am.
552
00:30:58,090 --> 00:30:59,892
Ambassador.
how are you?
553
00:31:04,063 --> 00:31:07,033
Honey, I'm going to
call you in the morning.
554
00:31:25,051 --> 00:31:28,387
[Gasps]
555
00:31:30,122 --> 00:31:31,523
Mr. Daniels!
556
00:31:31,557 --> 00:31:33,092
Mr. Daniels!
557
00:31:33,125 --> 00:31:34,460
Sir...sir!
558
00:31:42,068 --> 00:31:44,203
Get him on his back.
559
00:31:47,373 --> 00:31:49,308

560
00:31:49,341 --> 00:31:50,542
2...
561
00:31:50,576 --> 00:31:51,543
3...
562
00:31:51,577 --> 00:31:53,479
Somebody call
the paramedics.
563
00:31:58,417 --> 00:31:59,885
Come on, man!
564
00:31:59,918 --> 00:32:02,021
101 to 101.
565
00:32:03,589 --> 00:32:05,124
No!
566
00:32:05,157 --> 00:32:07,659
We interrupt
this program for
a special report.
567
00:32:07,693 --> 00:32:10,662
This is Iris gitter
in front of the
Watergate Plaza
568
00:32:10,696 --> 00:32:13,332
in Washington,
D.C. where,
just moments ago,
569
00:32:13,365 --> 00:32:16,235
U.S. Attorney General
Arthur Daniels
collapsed and died...
570
00:32:16,268 --> 00:32:17,503
Hello?
571
00:32:17,536 --> 00:32:19,505
Police are closing off
the area.
572
00:32:19,538 --> 00:32:22,508
People
are still leaving
the fund-raising event
573
00:32:22,541 --> 00:32:24,510
that the attorney
general was attending.
574
00:32:24,543 --> 00:32:27,679
He had
no previous record
of heart problems.
575
00:32:27,713 --> 00:32:29,181
Mac,
it's for you.
576
00:32:29,215 --> 00:32:31,017
Now back to you
in the studio.
577
00:32:31,050 --> 00:32:32,518
[Basketball

578
00:32:32,551 --> 00:32:34,020
Yes?
579
00:32:34,053 --> 00:32:37,023
Our friend would
like you to come
for a visit.
580
00:32:37,056 --> 00:32:38,524
East gate.
40 minutes.
581
00:32:38,557 --> 00:32:41,060
Right. 40 minutes.
I'll be there.
582
00:33:57,069 --> 00:33:58,070
Ready?
583
00:34:03,008 --> 00:34:04,810
[Knocking]
584
00:34:06,011 --> 00:34:09,515
Mr. president,
colonel Mac Casey.
585
00:34:12,518 --> 00:34:14,820
Please sit down,
colonel.
586
00:34:14,853 --> 00:34:17,789
I prefer to stand.
Thank you, sir.
587
00:34:17,823 --> 00:34:20,492
Tell me about
the general.
588
00:34:20,526 --> 00:34:23,495
Sir, this is very
uncomfortable for me
589
00:34:23,529 --> 00:34:27,466
because it concerns
a superior officer
that I admire and respect.
590
00:34:27,499 --> 00:34:29,000
Understood.
591
00:34:29,034 --> 00:34:33,004
The general believes
that war's inevitable...
592
00:34:33,038 --> 00:34:35,507
And the next time,
we will lose
593
00:34:35,541 --> 00:34:38,510
because we have lost
our ability to fight.
594
00:34:38,544 --> 00:34:41,079
I'd like to ask you
a question, sir.
595
00:34:41,113 --> 00:34:43,014
Go ahead.
596
00:34:43,048 --> 00:34:46,518
Yesterday...
i saw a private memo.
597
00:34:46,552 --> 00:34:51,022
An advanced chemical
disabling weapon called
reagent Alpha one
598
00:34:51,056 --> 00:34:54,025
had been authorized
for this weekend's
alert.
599
00:34:56,061 --> 00:34:59,531
Only the national
command authority
can do that, sir.
600
00:34:59,565 --> 00:35:02,634
I didn't order it.
601
00:35:02,668 --> 00:35:05,671
The only other person
with that authority
is secretary Potter.
602
00:35:05,704 --> 00:35:07,506
Yes, sir.
603
00:35:14,012 --> 00:35:16,815
Now let me
ask you a question.
604
00:35:19,017 --> 00:35:21,987
You believe
general Lloyd is a hero.
605
00:35:22,020 --> 00:35:23,489
Yes, I do.
606
00:35:23,522 --> 00:35:25,724
Can a hero be a traitor?
607
00:35:27,359 --> 00:35:29,361
I'm afraid he could be.
608
00:35:30,529 --> 00:35:33,499
So you think there's
a military plot
609
00:35:33,532 --> 00:35:35,501
to take over
the government.
610
00:35:35,534 --> 00:35:37,002
Naked military takeover.
611
00:35:37,035 --> 00:35:40,506
Not in this country.
The people would never
stand for it.
612
00:35:40,539 --> 00:35:43,509
The men at arms are just
regular American kids.
613
00:35:43,542 --> 00:35:46,111
They wouldn't
stand for it either.
614
00:35:46,144 --> 00:35:48,514
There has to be
something more.
615
00:35:48,547 --> 00:35:52,017
The military action
has to be supporting
something...
616
00:35:52,050 --> 00:35:55,887
Something within the law
that the people
could accept.
617
00:35:58,557 --> 00:36:00,526
The Attorney General...
618
00:36:00,559 --> 00:36:02,928
He died of
a heart attack, sir?
619
00:36:04,496 --> 00:36:08,600
Art Daniels
just had his physical
a week ago at Bethesda.
620
00:36:08,634 --> 00:36:10,469
We asked about it.
621
00:36:10,502 --> 00:36:12,904
He was in perfect health.
622
00:36:15,006 --> 00:36:16,975
The kgb...
623
00:36:17,008 --> 00:36:19,978
Used to use smoke
and prussic acid.
624
00:36:20,011 --> 00:36:23,815
Death was instantaneous.
Looked like a coronary.
625
00:36:25,016 --> 00:36:27,986
Our boys could have
done the same thing.
626
00:36:28,019 --> 00:36:30,556
You believe
art Daniels
was assassinated?
627
00:36:32,023 --> 00:36:35,026
What I do not
believe in, sir,
is coincidence.
628
00:36:36,528 --> 00:36:37,996
Maybe Daniels found out.
629
00:36:38,029 --> 00:36:40,999
Maybe he was even
involved in it.
630
00:36:41,032 --> 00:36:43,669
Maybe he just had
a heart attack.
631
00:36:43,702 --> 00:36:45,203
Maybe.
632
00:36:46,872 --> 00:36:49,941
Mac has a list
of 22 names.
633
00:36:49,975 --> 00:36:52,944
They're the commanders
of the exercise
this weekend.
634
00:36:52,978 --> 00:36:55,881
He thinks
they'll make a move
during the alert.
635
00:36:55,914 --> 00:36:59,785
If it is true,
all you can do
is fire them...Now.
636
00:36:59,818 --> 00:37:01,753
What about
the other generals?
637
00:37:01,787 --> 00:37:03,455
Do I trust them
638
00:37:03,489 --> 00:37:07,959
just because
colonel Casey hasn't
found their names yet?
639
00:37:07,993 --> 00:37:12,464
If I fire my top
22 generals,
640
00:37:12,498 --> 00:37:16,101
claim they're traitors
without proof...
641
00:37:16,134 --> 00:37:18,370
You could be impeached.
642
00:37:21,006 --> 00:37:22,574
It's a possibility,
sir.
643
00:37:22,608 --> 00:37:25,411
And a chance
you might
just have to take.
644
00:37:25,444 --> 00:37:27,979
Sir, we don't know
what they're planning,
645
00:37:28,013 --> 00:37:30,482
but what they'd do
to protect themselves
646
00:37:30,516 --> 00:37:32,484
if they suspected
that we knew...
647
00:37:32,518 --> 00:37:35,987
They might move it up.
They might go
immediately.
648
00:37:36,021 --> 00:37:37,989
We tip our hands
right now,
649
00:37:38,023 --> 00:37:40,992
we are giving up
our tactical advantage
of surprise,
650
00:37:41,026 --> 00:37:44,062
and, frankly, sir,
that is the only
advantage that we have.
651
00:37:44,095 --> 00:37:47,499
What are we supposed
to do with our
tactical advantage?
652
00:37:47,533 --> 00:37:50,502
Find out who they are,
what they're planning,
653
00:37:50,536 --> 00:37:53,505
and how to stop them
in 69 hours.

Why didn't you
join them?

Not to be
the government,
sir.
662
00:38:08,754 --> 00:38:12,524

about where your
loyalties lie?
663
00:38:15,494 --> 00:38:17,563
I'm here.

before.

told me something.

let me know?

trouble like that?

this morning?

have a bad dream?

to go away.

hasn't leaked yet.

about him?

I've known him
for a long time.

on one man.

00:42:29,047 --> 00:42:33,018
If we get lucky--
find a guy who's
not a conspirator--
707
00:42:33,051 --> 00:42:35,954
how do we know
he'll even help us?
708
00:42:35,987 --> 00:42:37,455
FBI? secret service?
709
00:42:37,488 --> 00:42:40,458
If Daniels could have
been in on it.
710
00:42:40,491 --> 00:42:41,960
Why not the FBI?
711
00:42:41,993 --> 00:42:43,528
Why not anybody?
712
00:42:43,561 --> 00:42:46,531
We might get a hand from
Daniels' private secretary,
713
00:42:46,564 --> 00:42:47,532
Sarah something.
714
00:42:47,565 --> 00:42:49,034
She's not too bright.
715
00:42:49,067 --> 00:42:52,303
I'll make up a story,
give her a call.
716
00:42:52,337 --> 00:42:54,339
[Band plays]
717
00:42:57,408 --> 00:43:00,511
[Telephone rings]
718
00:43:02,113 --> 00:43:03,081
Yeah?
719
00:43:03,114 --> 00:43:04,582
Colonel Casey, please.
720
00:43:04,616 --> 00:43:07,085
Yeah, he's right here.
Hang on.
721
00:43:07,118 --> 00:43:08,086
Mac?
722
00:43:08,119 --> 00:43:09,988
Yeah?
723
00:43:10,021 --> 00:43:11,089
Hello.
724
00:43:11,122 --> 00:43:13,992
Please hold for
the chief of staff.
725
00:43:14,025 --> 00:43:15,493
The Attorney General's
secretary
726
00:43:15,526 --> 00:43:16,995
is a Sarah mccann.
727
00:43:17,028 --> 00:43:18,997
You'll be meeting her
tonight
728
00:43:19,030 --> 00:43:20,999
at the justice department.
729
00:43:21,032 --> 00:43:22,000
O.k.
730
00:43:22,033 --> 00:43:23,301
Ninth street entrance,
7:00.
731
00:43:23,334 --> 00:43:25,603
That'll give the building
time to clear.
732
00:43:25,637 --> 00:43:27,639
Your name is wycliffe--
Philip.
733
00:43:27,673 --> 00:43:30,475
I--i got to go.
734
00:43:30,508 --> 00:43:33,478
I saw you checking out
of the white house
last night.
735
00:43:33,511 --> 00:43:36,314
What are you,
special adviser
to the president?
736
00:43:36,347 --> 00:43:37,615
It wasn't me, pal.
737
00:43:39,017 --> 00:43:40,251
Mac?
738
00:43:41,419 --> 00:43:42,487
Sir?
739
00:43:43,588 --> 00:43:45,556
Did you forget
something, sir?
740
00:43:45,590 --> 00:43:47,025
You've been working
too hard.
741
00:43:47,058 --> 00:43:49,027
Just take care
of this briefing,
742
00:43:49,060 --> 00:43:50,528
then take
a three-day pass
743
00:43:50,561 --> 00:43:52,530
and spend time
with the family.
744
00:43:52,563 --> 00:43:54,265
That's an order.
745
00:43:54,299 --> 00:43:55,533
Thank you, sir.
746
00:44:14,986 --> 00:44:16,988
Mr. wycliffe?
747
00:44:17,022 --> 00:44:18,857
I'm Sarah mccann.
748
00:44:21,459 --> 00:44:23,729
Could he have had
another appointment book...
749
00:44:23,762 --> 00:44:25,496
A private one maybe?
750
00:44:25,530 --> 00:44:28,133
No. just that one,
i think.
751
00:44:29,534 --> 00:44:33,004
Did you know
Lloyd kimaroff?
752
00:44:33,038 --> 00:44:34,505
Just that once.
753
00:44:34,539 --> 00:44:37,008
Can you remember
anything about that--
754
00:44:37,042 --> 00:44:40,011
how the general looked
when he went in--
755
00:44:40,045 --> 00:44:41,512
when he came out?
756
00:44:41,546 --> 00:44:44,515
The Attorney General's
mood after the meeting.
757
00:44:44,549 --> 00:44:46,017
Well, they fought.
758
00:44:46,051 --> 00:44:48,519
I heard raised voices
through the door,
759
00:44:48,553 --> 00:44:50,521
but I couldn't hear
any words.
760
00:44:50,555 --> 00:44:53,691
And when they came out,
they were smiling.
761
00:44:55,060 --> 00:44:57,095
Sarah...
762
00:44:57,128 --> 00:45:01,733
Could you...Sit down
for a second?
763
00:45:04,002 --> 00:45:05,737
Thank you.
764
00:45:07,072 --> 00:45:10,008
What did miss corcoran
tell you about the situation?
765
00:45:10,041 --> 00:45:12,010
Miss corcoran
didn't call me.
766
00:45:12,043 --> 00:45:15,380
The president
called me...
Himself.
767
00:45:15,413 --> 00:45:19,384
He said I should
give you anything
you ask for,
768
00:45:19,417 --> 00:45:21,887
and to keep this
a secret
769
00:45:21,920 --> 00:45:24,389
because Mr. Daniels
had some enemies,
770
00:45:24,422 --> 00:45:27,492
and that
you were defending
Mr. Daniels' good name.
771
00:45:27,525 --> 00:45:29,895
He wasn't a perfect man,
772
00:45:29,928 --> 00:45:32,397
but he was a good man.
773
00:45:32,430 --> 00:45:33,398
You see,
774
00:45:33,431 --> 00:45:34,699
the president said
775
00:45:34,732 --> 00:45:37,468
for you to give me
whatever I ask.
776
00:45:37,502 --> 00:45:38,970
What we're looking for...
777
00:45:39,004 --> 00:45:41,006
It's a secret.
778
00:45:41,039 --> 00:45:44,209
So I don't know
what to ask.
779
00:45:45,844 --> 00:45:46,978
You know.
780
00:46:01,559 --> 00:46:03,628
This wasn't anything
like Watergate.
781
00:46:03,661 --> 00:46:05,630
This was just
for his memoirs.
782
00:46:05,663 --> 00:46:07,632
And he wouldn't have
written anything
783
00:46:07,665 --> 00:46:09,267
until after everyone
had retired.
784
00:46:09,300 --> 00:46:12,470
And then he
would have handled
everything with...
785
00:46:12,503 --> 00:46:13,638
Integrity.
786
00:46:13,671 --> 00:46:15,974
I need the tapes,
Sarah...
787
00:46:16,007 --> 00:46:18,009
Especially the ones
from Tuesday.
788
00:46:18,043 --> 00:46:20,511
He didn't give them
to me.
789
00:46:20,545 --> 00:46:22,280
They're
at his house...
790
00:46:22,313 --> 00:46:23,281
I think.
791
00:46:23,314 --> 00:46:24,782
Is there anybody there?
792
00:46:24,816 --> 00:46:26,985
No. after the divorce,
he lived--
793
00:46:27,018 --> 00:46:29,020
he lived by himself.
794
00:46:31,022 --> 00:46:33,058
I have a key.
795
00:47:06,958 --> 00:47:08,426
[Door closes]
796
00:48:19,130 --> 00:48:21,466
Scorched tapes
and ashes.
797
00:48:21,499 --> 00:48:22,467
Damn!
798
00:48:22,500 --> 00:48:24,469
At least it proves
we're right.
799
00:48:24,502 --> 00:48:27,305
This thing
does go deeper
than the military.
800
00:48:27,338 --> 00:48:29,975
It proves it to us--
not the country.
801
00:48:30,008 --> 00:48:32,810
Now we're down
to 48 hours.
802
00:48:32,843 --> 00:48:34,479
45.
803
00:48:34,512 --> 00:48:37,382
I'll update
the president.
804
00:48:37,415 --> 00:48:39,317
O.k.
805
00:49:05,710 --> 00:49:08,146
What's the matter?
Are you tired?
806
00:49:08,179 --> 00:49:10,148
You run. You run home.
807
00:49:10,181 --> 00:49:12,450
Run home now.
808
00:49:12,483 --> 00:49:14,952
I don't have time
to explain. Now, go.
809
00:50:08,706 --> 00:50:12,543
We just want
to talk to you.
810
00:50:13,478 --> 00:50:15,480
[Clock chiming]
811
00:50:29,194 --> 00:50:31,062
Colonel Casey!
812
00:50:37,635 --> 00:50:39,970
Who are you?
813
00:50:40,004 --> 00:50:42,973
Call me...Jake.
814
00:50:43,007 --> 00:50:44,475
Jake.
815
00:50:44,509 --> 00:50:46,711
Would you prefer Joe?
816
00:50:46,744 --> 00:50:47,712
No.
817
00:50:47,745 --> 00:50:49,214
Jake is fine.
818
00:50:49,247 --> 00:50:52,483
I didn't know you guys
were still in business.
819
00:50:52,517 --> 00:50:56,654
Yes. we Russians
have a great respect
for our traditions.
820
00:50:56,687 --> 00:50:58,223
What am I doing here?
821
00:50:58,256 --> 00:51:04,495
You are colonel
Lyle MacArthur Casey,
822
00:51:04,529 --> 00:51:07,998
and you are tracking
your own superior,
general Lloyd,
823
00:51:08,032 --> 00:51:11,035
and reporting back
to the white house.
824
00:51:11,068 --> 00:51:14,839
That is why I wish
to speak with you.
825
00:51:14,872 --> 00:51:20,945
We know that you are facing
a conspiracy in your
government, colonel.
826
00:51:20,978 --> 00:51:23,548
We wish to help.
827
00:51:23,581 --> 00:51:26,951
President foster
is a humanitarian,
828
00:51:26,984 --> 00:51:31,456
sympathetic to the plight
of my people.
829
00:51:31,489 --> 00:51:35,460
And a
militarily controlled U.S.
830
00:51:35,493 --> 00:51:38,696
Is not in
our best interests.
831
00:51:41,399 --> 00:51:42,633
Fort benning.
832
00:51:44,135 --> 00:51:46,137
Here is NORAD.
833
00:51:48,239 --> 00:51:50,208
Now tampa.
834
00:51:50,241 --> 00:51:51,209
Troop movements,
835
00:51:51,242 --> 00:51:52,710
all from this morning.
836
00:51:52,743 --> 00:51:56,347
How'd you get
these photographs?
837
00:51:56,381 --> 00:52:01,252
We accessed your
high resolution satellite.
838
00:52:01,286 --> 00:52:02,320
Very simple.
839
00:52:03,521 --> 00:52:05,190
Next...
840
00:52:05,223 --> 00:52:07,692
Hunting lodge...
841
00:52:07,725 --> 00:52:09,527
Blue Ridge mountains.
842
00:52:09,560 --> 00:52:11,796
Four meetings
in six weeks--
843
00:52:11,829 --> 00:52:16,334
always these
very same men.
844
00:52:20,471 --> 00:52:21,939
You know, colonel,
845
00:52:21,972 --> 00:52:26,777
the Pentagon is
the best news manager
in the world.
846
00:52:26,811 --> 00:52:29,280
Your general
has all he needs--
847
00:52:29,314 --> 00:52:30,948
the politicians,
848
00:52:30,981 --> 00:52:32,450
the military,
849
00:52:32,483 --> 00:52:34,319
public opinion,
850
00:52:34,352 --> 00:52:37,722
and...the next president.
851
00:52:37,755 --> 00:52:41,826
Vice president...
852
00:52:41,859 --> 00:52:43,093
Kelly.
853
00:52:46,531 --> 00:52:47,498
Walter Kelly.
854
00:52:47,532 --> 00:52:50,968
Why am I not surprised?
855
00:52:51,001 --> 00:52:52,470
And Jack giddings,
856
00:52:52,503 --> 00:52:56,974
more money than god
and the moral sense
of an ant.
857
00:52:57,007 --> 00:52:58,476
Fire everybody
in sight,
858
00:52:58,509 --> 00:52:59,810
the whole
fucking cabinet.
859
00:52:59,844 --> 00:53:01,812
I can't fire
the vice president,
860
00:53:01,846 --> 00:53:03,481
and I can't fire
Jack giddings.
861
00:53:03,514 --> 00:53:05,983
What's worse,
i can't prove
anything.
862
00:53:06,016 --> 00:53:07,485
What about
these photographs?
863
00:53:07,518 --> 00:53:10,488
You want me
to go on TV and say,
864
00:53:10,521 --> 00:53:13,491
"i got these photos
from the Russians
of our bases,
865
00:53:13,524 --> 00:53:16,961
which incriminate
the most popular hero
in the United States."
866
00:53:16,994 --> 00:53:19,964
The vote to impeach
would end gridlock.
867
00:53:19,997 --> 00:53:21,966
It'd be unanimous
and bipartisan.
868
00:53:21,999 --> 00:53:25,470
And then Walter Kelly
waltzes into the oval office
869
00:53:25,503 --> 00:53:26,971
through the front door.
870
00:53:27,004 --> 00:53:30,341
We still have
some time, sir.
871
00:53:30,375 --> 00:53:33,611
Go back to your friends,
Mac.
872
00:53:33,644 --> 00:53:34,945
There's got to be more.
873
00:53:34,979 --> 00:53:37,448
Get me some proof
i can use.
874
00:53:37,482 --> 00:53:40,351
We're down to 35 hours.
We have to do something.
875
00:53:40,385 --> 00:53:42,387
I know what I'm doing.
876
00:53:42,420 --> 00:53:43,388
[Intercom]
877
00:53:43,421 --> 00:53:44,389
Yes?
878
00:53:44,422 --> 00:53:45,756
Excuse me, sir.
879
00:53:45,790 --> 00:53:47,958
The president's
on line 1.
880
00:53:47,992 --> 00:53:49,460
Good afternoon, general.
881
00:53:49,494 --> 00:53:50,961
Good afternoon,
Mr. president.
882
00:53:50,995 --> 00:53:52,963
I'll come straight
to the point.
883
00:53:52,997 --> 00:53:56,367
I want to cancel the alert
this weekend.
884
00:53:59,504 --> 00:54:02,473
If I may, sir, um...
885
00:54:02,507 --> 00:54:04,975
This exercise is vital
to our readiness,
886
00:54:05,009 --> 00:54:06,644
as we discussed.
887
00:54:06,677 --> 00:54:08,145
I agree, general.
888
00:54:08,178 --> 00:54:11,148
I'm not suggesting
we cancel it indefinitely,
889
00:54:11,181 --> 00:54:13,083
but, with everything
that's happened,
890
00:54:13,117 --> 00:54:15,019
I want to postpone it.
891
00:54:15,052 --> 00:54:18,022
The final decision's
up to you, sir,
892
00:54:18,055 --> 00:54:21,726
but...i cannot
endorse your decision.
893
00:54:21,759 --> 00:54:24,228
I'd take that under
consideration, general,
894
00:54:24,261 --> 00:54:27,532
but I'm afraid
my decision is final.
895
00:54:27,565 --> 00:54:29,700
I want it canceled.
896
00:54:29,734 --> 00:54:30,701
Goodbye, general.
897
00:54:30,735 --> 00:54:31,802
[Click]
898
00:54:40,778 --> 00:54:42,947
Bye, Mr. president.
899
00:54:46,617 --> 00:54:49,954
Arthur Daniels had the same
respect for life,
900
00:54:49,987 --> 00:54:52,790
family, and god
901
00:54:52,823 --> 00:54:55,526
as for the law
he swore to uphold.
902
00:54:55,560 --> 00:54:58,529
He left us
a legacy of decency--
903
00:54:58,563 --> 00:55:01,532
decency in every aspect
of his life.
904
00:55:01,566 --> 00:55:04,535
For those of us
who knew him,
905
00:55:04,569 --> 00:55:07,538
we learned to admire
and respect him.
906
00:55:07,572 --> 00:55:10,608
We shall miss him greatly.
907
00:55:10,641 --> 00:55:12,843
Let us pray.
908
00:55:12,877 --> 00:55:14,379
Unto thee, o lord,
909
00:55:14,412 --> 00:55:16,414
do I lift up my soul.
910
00:55:16,447 --> 00:55:18,749
O, my god,
i trust in you.
911
00:55:18,783 --> 00:55:20,751
Let me not be ashamed.
912
00:55:20,785 --> 00:55:23,988
Let not mine enemies
triumph over me.
913
00:55:24,021 --> 00:55:26,891
Let none that wait on me
be ashamed.
914
00:55:26,924 --> 00:55:30,928
Let them be ashamed
which transgress
without cause.
915
00:55:30,961 --> 00:55:33,431
Show me thy ways,
o lord,
916
00:55:33,464 --> 00:55:34,999
teach me thy paths.
917
00:55:35,032 --> 00:55:37,635
Consider mine enemies,
918
00:55:37,668 --> 00:55:38,936
for they are many,
919
00:55:38,969 --> 00:55:41,439
and they hate me
with cruel hatred.
920
00:55:41,472 --> 00:55:43,340
So keep my soul
and deliver me.
921
00:55:43,374 --> 00:55:45,342
Let me not be ashamed,
922
00:55:45,376 --> 00:55:48,446
for I put my trust
in thee...
923
00:55:48,479 --> 00:55:50,448
I thought
you were off.
924
00:55:50,481 --> 00:55:52,450
I'm here
to see you.
925
00:55:52,483 --> 00:55:53,751
Let your son,
Arthur Daniels,
926
00:55:53,784 --> 00:55:54,819
be with you today.
927
00:55:54,852 --> 00:55:56,921
1 and...
928
00:55:59,156 --> 00:56:00,758
Ready...
929
00:56:00,791 --> 00:56:02,460
Aim...
930
00:56:02,493 --> 00:56:03,661
Fire!
931
00:56:03,694 --> 00:56:04,962
Ready...
932
00:56:04,995 --> 00:56:06,464
Aim...
933
00:56:06,497 --> 00:56:07,465
Fire!
934
00:56:07,498 --> 00:56:09,199
Ready...
935
00:56:09,233 --> 00:56:10,635
Aim...
936
00:56:10,668 --> 00:56:11,969
Fire!
937
00:56:12,002 --> 00:56:12,970
Ready...
938
00:56:13,003 --> 00:56:14,405
Aim...
939
00:56:14,439 --> 00:56:15,406
Fire!
940
00:56:15,440 --> 00:56:17,107
Ready...
941
00:56:17,141 --> 00:56:18,108
Aim...
942
00:56:18,142 --> 00:56:20,411
Fire!
943
00:56:20,445 --> 00:56:21,646
Try it again.
944
00:56:21,679 --> 00:56:23,313
Present.
945
00:56:23,347 --> 00:56:24,348
Arms...
946
00:56:27,718 --> 00:56:28,853
Order.
947
00:56:28,886 --> 00:56:29,887
Arms...
948
00:56:36,461 --> 00:56:38,929
It's unfortunate
that this was necessary.
949
00:56:38,963 --> 00:56:41,932
We're going
to get our hands dirty
950
00:56:41,966 --> 00:56:45,936
no matter how antiseptically
we do this.
951
00:56:52,409 --> 00:56:54,545
We're shutting it down.
952
00:56:54,579 --> 00:56:56,046
Try it again.
953
00:56:56,080 --> 00:56:57,548
I've already gone
954
00:56:57,582 --> 00:56:59,550
where no lieutenant's
gone before.
955
00:56:59,584 --> 00:57:01,285
Try it again,
lieutenant.
956
00:57:01,318 --> 00:57:02,787
Colonel,
this ain't kosher.
957
00:57:02,820 --> 00:57:04,789
Damn it, Billy,
you just...
958
00:57:04,822 --> 00:57:07,492
You go have
a cup of coffee,
o.K.?
959
00:57:33,584 --> 00:57:35,052
Bob,
we're in agreement.
960
00:57:35,085 --> 00:57:38,455
This thing is a go
for tomorrow.
961
00:57:46,396 --> 00:57:47,998
Colonel...
962
00:57:53,237 --> 00:57:54,872
Lieutenant...
963
00:57:54,905 --> 00:57:56,641
Sir?
964
00:57:56,674 --> 00:57:59,810
Was that
colonel Casey?
965
00:57:59,844 --> 00:58:00,811
No, sir.
966
00:58:00,845 --> 00:58:04,414
He's on
a three-day pass, sir.
967
00:58:05,482 --> 00:58:06,951
Thank you,
lieutenant.
968
00:58:06,984 --> 00:58:09,720
Carry on.
969
00:58:09,754 --> 00:58:10,888
Sir.
970
00:58:16,594 --> 00:58:18,896
If I don't get
some hard proof
971
00:58:18,929 --> 00:58:20,397
by 8:00
tomorrow night,
972
00:58:20,430 --> 00:58:21,932
there'll be
no second chances.
973
00:58:21,966 --> 00:58:23,934
We came forward to you.
974
00:58:23,968 --> 00:58:25,936
Why would I hold back?
975
00:58:25,970 --> 00:58:27,237
Hard proof.
976
00:58:27,271 --> 00:58:30,608
It compromises
some other interest
of yours?
977
00:58:30,641 --> 00:58:33,611
Maybe an agent
you have in place?
978
00:58:35,445 --> 00:58:36,413
Hypothetically speaking,
979
00:58:36,446 --> 00:58:39,917
if such an agent existed,
980
00:58:39,950 --> 00:58:43,854
I presume
one could bargain.
981
00:58:43,888 --> 00:58:45,756
One can
always bargain.
982
00:58:45,790 --> 00:58:47,758
[Coach]
come on.
All the way now.
983
00:58:47,792 --> 00:58:48,759
All the way.
984
00:58:48,793 --> 00:58:49,760
Oh, yeah!
985
00:58:49,794 --> 00:58:50,761
Jordan almonds.
986
00:58:50,795 --> 00:58:52,930
I'm addicted.
987
00:58:52,963 --> 00:58:55,132
I need a witness
to testify, Jake.
988
00:58:55,165 --> 00:58:56,634
The agent in place
989
00:58:56,667 --> 00:58:59,136
has been a problem to us
990
00:58:59,169 --> 00:59:02,372
for reasons that
i cannot say.
991
00:59:02,406 --> 00:59:04,308
Going to the other side,
is he?
992
00:59:04,341 --> 00:59:06,443
Let's just say
emotional problems.
993
00:59:06,476 --> 00:59:09,980
Let me think on this.
994
00:59:11,048 --> 00:59:13,483
The third baseman...
995
00:59:15,485 --> 00:59:16,453
My child!
996
00:59:16,486 --> 00:59:18,255
[Shouts]
997
00:59:18,288 --> 00:59:19,790
I love this game!
998
00:59:22,426 --> 00:59:26,063
The Russians
are hoping for a deal.
999
00:59:26,096 --> 00:59:28,565
Get me proof...
1000
00:59:28,599 --> 00:59:30,668
And their agent goes home.
1001
00:59:30,701 --> 00:59:33,170
I'm to be contacted
on that.
1002
00:59:33,203 --> 00:59:35,005
Let's pray it's soon...
1003
00:59:35,039 --> 00:59:38,008
Because with 20 hours to go,
we've got nothing.
1004
00:59:38,042 --> 00:59:40,510
The ultimate would be
a confession--
1005
00:59:40,544 --> 00:59:42,012
someone inside
the conspiracy.
1006
00:59:42,046 --> 00:59:44,014
Why would anybody
do that?
1007
00:59:44,048 --> 00:59:47,017
Especially since they'd be
confessing to treason.
1008
00:59:47,051 --> 00:59:48,318
Maybe even murder.
1009
00:59:51,455 --> 00:59:55,059
I keep thinking about
art Daniels.
1010
00:59:55,092 --> 00:59:57,061
One thing he would never do
1011
00:59:57,094 --> 00:59:59,529
is go against
the constitution.
1012
01:00:02,466 --> 01:00:06,436
We live in
a highly evolved democracy.
1013
01:00:06,470 --> 01:00:08,438
They're going to have
to do something
1014
01:00:08,472 --> 01:00:10,775
to give this thing
the appearance,
1015
01:00:10,808 --> 01:00:13,978
the illusion of legality.
1016
01:00:22,552 --> 01:00:25,455
Amendment xxv,
ratified after Kennedy...
1017
01:00:25,489 --> 01:00:27,457
"Presidential disability
and succession act,
1018
01:00:27,491 --> 01:00:29,960
"section 4.
1019
01:00:29,994 --> 01:00:31,461

of the executive
departments--"
1022
01:00:35,499 --> 01:00:37,467
sound like
the cabinet, sir?
1023
01:00:37,501 --> 01:00:38,468
Keep reading.
1024
01:00:38,502 --> 01:00:40,470
"Or of such other body
1025
01:00:40,504 --> 01:00:42,306

01:00:52,850 --> 01:00:54,819

01:00:54,852 --> 01:00:56,987
"the powers and duties

01:00:57,021 --> 01:00:58,288
as acting president."
1033
01:00:58,322 --> 01:01:00,490
Just by sending
a letter,
1034
01:01:00,524 --> 01:01:02,993
you can be removed
from office?
1035
01:01:03,027 --> 01:01:04,995
If I write a letter
1036
01:01:05,029 --> 01:01:07,497
saying that I am not
disabled,
1037
01:01:07,531 --> 01:01:09,199
I don't automatically
get my job back.
1038
01:01:09,233 --> 01:01:11,135
The other side
gets four days
1039
01:01:11,168 --> 01:01:14,071
to say that I am disabled--
which they will--
1040
01:01:14,104 --> 01:01:16,440
and then the congress
gets 21 days
1041
01:01:16,473 --> 01:01:18,442
to meet
and vote on it.
1042
01:01:18,475 --> 01:01:19,643
And through all that time,
1043
01:01:19,676 --> 01:01:20,644
Walter Kelly,
1044
01:01:20,677 --> 01:01:24,181
that backbiting...
1045
01:01:24,214 --> 01:01:26,917
Remains president.
1046
01:01:28,853 --> 01:01:30,988
I'll be damned,
that's it.
1047
01:01:31,021 --> 01:01:32,489
That's what, sir?
1048
01:01:32,522 --> 01:01:34,792
They want a new president
they can control.
1049
01:01:34,825 --> 01:01:38,195
The xxvth amendment
makes it legal.
1050
01:01:39,496 --> 01:01:42,266
That's their cover.
1051
01:01:45,002 --> 01:01:48,338
This letter was delivered
at 8:00 this evening.
1052
01:01:48,372 --> 01:01:51,041
Accordingly,
i speak to you now...
1053
01:01:51,075 --> 01:01:52,476
As your president.
1054
01:01:52,509 --> 01:01:54,478
We are going
to try the issues
1055
01:01:54,511 --> 01:01:56,981
of will foster's mental
and emotional stability.
1056
01:01:57,014 --> 01:02:00,484
Not tonight.
These issues will be tried
in the congress,
1057
01:02:00,517 --> 01:02:02,686
as required
by our constitution.
1058
01:02:02,719 --> 01:02:05,823
And the system
will work its will
in this crisis
1059
01:02:05,856 --> 01:02:08,392
as it has in others.
1060
01:02:08,425 --> 01:02:10,895
Every man is imperfect
by nature,
1061
01:02:10,928 --> 01:02:12,562
and every nation
throughout history
1062
01:02:12,596 --> 01:02:14,498
has been ruled by men.
1063
01:02:14,531 --> 01:02:16,233
Every nation but ours.
1064
01:02:16,266 --> 01:02:17,734
I have, therefore, decided,
1065
01:02:17,768 --> 01:02:20,237
in consultation with
other government leaders,
1066
01:02:20,270 --> 01:02:22,239
as a purely
temporary measure,
1067
01:02:22,272 --> 01:02:24,741
that for the next 72 hours
1068
01:02:24,775 --> 01:02:27,744
there will be

1069
01:02:27,778 --> 01:02:29,046
The writ of habeas corpus
1070
01:02:29,079 --> 01:02:30,614
will be suspended
during this time.
1071
01:02:30,647 --> 01:02:32,950
Accordingly,
our joint chiefs of staff--
1072
01:02:32,983 --> 01:02:34,952
[producer]
we may want
to change that.
1073
01:02:34,985 --> 01:02:36,954
It smells of
a military junta.
1074
01:02:36,987 --> 01:02:39,957
When you say
you place the power
into their hands,
1075
01:02:39,990 --> 01:02:42,459
there's a sense that you're
giving up control.
1076
01:02:42,492 --> 01:02:43,961
Wrong.
you're the president.
1077
01:02:43,994 --> 01:02:48,065
They're simply
your traffic cops.
1078
01:02:48,098 --> 01:02:51,601
So, I've given orders
to...Mm-hmm.
1079
01:02:51,635 --> 01:02:54,271
And lighten up the tone
through this section.
1080
01:02:54,304 --> 01:02:56,773
Let the words
carry the power.
1081
01:02:56,807 --> 01:02:58,775
It's a purely
temporary measure.
1082
01:02:58,809 --> 01:03:00,477
They don't like will foster
1083
01:03:00,510 --> 01:03:01,545
any more than we do,
1084
01:03:01,578 --> 01:03:04,048
but he is
the elected president.
1085
01:03:04,081 --> 01:03:05,950
You're simply letting them
off the hook.
1086
01:03:05,983 --> 01:03:07,451
They'll feel relieved.
1087
01:03:07,484 --> 01:03:09,954
That's what
they want to feel.
1088
01:03:09,987 --> 01:03:12,089
Nurture that.
1089
01:03:12,122 --> 01:03:14,224
Let's do it again.
1090
01:05:36,566 --> 01:05:38,035
Sarah.
1091
01:05:38,068 --> 01:05:40,670
Mr. wycliffe.
1092
01:05:43,473 --> 01:05:44,741
When I was young,
1093
01:05:44,774 --> 01:05:46,010
if somebody told me
1094
01:05:46,043 --> 01:05:50,047
that I was going
to end up as a spy...
1095
01:05:50,080 --> 01:05:51,915
Oh, well...
1096
01:05:51,948 --> 01:05:54,951
Jake ordered me...
1097
01:05:54,985 --> 01:05:58,455
To cooperate
with the president.
1098
01:05:58,488 --> 01:06:02,392
That's why I told you
about the tapes.
1099
01:06:02,426 --> 01:06:04,894
You got to help us now.
1100
01:06:04,928 --> 01:06:06,063
Meaning?
1101
01:06:06,096 --> 01:06:08,898
You got to testify
what's on those tapes.
1102
01:06:08,932 --> 01:06:11,135
Well, it won't
prove anything.
1103
01:06:11,168 --> 01:06:13,137
Arthur never said
anything incriminating.
1104
01:06:13,170 --> 01:06:15,572
No, no. You're
all we've got.
1105
01:06:15,605 --> 01:06:18,575
If the CIA
discovers my role in
the justice department,
1106
01:06:18,608 --> 01:06:20,144
what's going to happen
to me?
1107
01:06:20,177 --> 01:06:22,146
The president promised.
You'll be protected.
1108
01:06:22,179 --> 01:06:24,148
No. I need to think
about this.
1109
01:06:24,181 --> 01:06:25,515
Hey! you're
not listening.
1110
01:06:25,549 --> 01:06:28,485
You got to tell
the president
what you know now.
1111
01:06:28,518 --> 01:06:30,720
No.

Mac? what's
the matter?
1122
01:07:30,947 --> 01:07:33,417
Get Todd.
Go to your mother's.
1123
01:07:33,450 --> 01:07:34,418
Why?
1124
01:07:34,451 --> 01:07:36,420
I can't explain
right now.
1125
01:07:36,453 --> 01:07:38,922
Todd, take care
of your mother, o.K.?
1126
01:07:38,955 --> 01:07:41,425

what's going on!

Yes, sir. Dad,
it's general Lloyd.
1131
01:07:47,464 --> 01:07:50,434
Just go! You gotta go!
I love you, but go.
1132
01:07:50,467 --> 01:07:52,402
Both of you, go now!
1133
01:07:52,436 --> 01:07:54,404

are we going?

You want to talk to me,
talk in a public place.

1136
01:08:00,610 --> 01:08:01,611
Fine.
1137

Huh!
1138

Hey,

don't worry.

was my empty desk.
1141

What do you mean?
1142
01:08:33,677 --> 01:08:36,079
I've been
transferred to Hawaii,
effective immediately.
1143
01:08:36,112 --> 01:08:39,015
I put in for it
a few years ago,
1144

but I never heard anything.
1145

This is symbolic.
1151
01:09:27,931 --> 01:09:30,400
We could've met
over a beer,
1152
01:09:30,434 --> 01:09:32,402
like a couple
of marines.
1153

Here is better, in front

you're trying to destroy.

What have you been
doing, Mac?
1159
01:09:47,451 --> 01:09:49,919
I've been watching
your covert exercises.
1160
01:09:49,953 --> 01:09:52,422
It was agreed that only
generals would know.
1161
01:09:52,456 --> 01:09:55,425
That's why you were left
out of the discussions.
1162
01:09:55,459 --> 01:09:56,926
Potter is no general.
1163
01:09:56,960 --> 01:09:58,428
Jack giddings
is no general.
1164
01:09:58,462 --> 01:09:59,929
You've been managed.
1165
01:09:59,963 --> 01:10:02,432
You won't get
what you want
1166

unless they
get what they want.
1167
01:10:04,468 --> 01:10:06,436
We all want
the same thing,
1168
01:10:06,470 --> 01:10:08,938
a country
secure from
foreign aggression.
1169
01:10:08,972 --> 01:10:10,440
We can have that
1170
01:10:10,474 --> 01:10:13,677
as long as we have
a country worth
fighting for.
1171
01:10:13,710 --> 01:10:16,946
Who'd fight for
Jack giddings or Potter?
Count me out.
1172
01:10:16,980 --> 01:10:19,449
You would stand by
and watch

everything we fought
and died for
1174
01:10:21,818 --> 01:10:24,954
betrayed by a man who
never wore a uniform.
1175
01:10:24,988 --> 01:10:27,791
He is the elected
president.
1176
01:10:27,824 --> 01:10:30,794
It will be put
to the people...
1177

referendum.

the wrong choice.

this thing, general.

01:16:41,765 --> 01:16:44,200
to plan a covert
military operation--
1246
01:16:44,233 --> 01:16:46,202
designation,
slam dunk--
1247
01:16:46,235 --> 01:16:49,605
whose sole purpose
was to overthrow
the presidency.
1248
01:16:49,639 --> 01:16:51,941
I beg your pardon,
Mr. president,
1249
01:16:51,975 --> 01:16:54,443
but every detail
for slam dunk
was authorized
1250
01:16:54,477 --> 01:16:56,680
by your secretary
of defense here,
1251
01:16:56,713 --> 01:16:59,482
who is in the national
chain of command.
1252
01:16:59,515 --> 01:17:01,484
It seems to me,
Mr. president,
1253
01:17:01,517 --> 01:17:03,987
that I made a note
in my diary
1254
01:17:04,020 --> 01:17:07,957
the day we decided to
go ahead with slam dunk.
1255
01:17:07,991 --> 01:17:09,458
Nothing treasonous
in that.
1256
01:17:09,492 --> 01:17:12,461
What proof do you have
that we're conspiring
1257
01:17:12,495 --> 01:17:13,963
to overthrow
the presidency?
1258
01:17:16,933 --> 01:17:19,903
I can't fire Walter,
I'm sorry to say.
1259
01:17:19,936 --> 01:17:23,406
But both of you
and the rest
of the cabinet
1260
01:17:23,439 --> 01:17:24,908
are hereby terminated
forthwith.
1261
01:17:24,941 --> 01:17:28,044
You mean,
before we sign the letter?
1262
01:17:30,947 --> 01:17:33,917
The letter's already
been sent, will.
1263
01:17:33,950 --> 01:17:36,619
Walter's been president
for over an hour.
1264
01:17:37,921 --> 01:17:42,992
Your failures of judgment
can no longer be indulged.
1265
01:17:51,467 --> 01:17:54,137
I'll see you
in hell first.
1266
01:17:55,238 --> 01:17:56,706
That's a date.
1267
01:17:56,740 --> 01:17:58,474
I didn't think
you'd mind.
1268
01:17:59,475 --> 01:18:01,444
What have you
got, Mac?
1269
01:18:01,477 --> 01:18:03,446
Not much time,
Mr. president.
1270
01:18:03,479 --> 01:18:04,748
Go ahead.
1271
01:18:04,781 --> 01:18:06,282
You start calling.
1272
01:18:06,315 --> 01:18:07,784
Order back
the troops,
1273
01:18:07,817 --> 01:18:10,286
kill the letter,
cancel the telecast.
1274
01:18:10,319 --> 01:18:12,789
And when you are
done calling,
1275
01:18:12,822 --> 01:18:15,391
this whole thing,
it never happened.
1276
01:18:15,424 --> 01:18:16,893
And if we don't?
1277
01:18:16,926 --> 01:18:18,627
What'll you do?
1278
01:18:18,661 --> 01:18:20,764
I'm going to confess.
1279
01:18:20,797 --> 01:18:23,867
I'm going to confess
to my complicity
1280
01:18:23,900 --> 01:18:25,401
in ou plot.
1281
01:18:26,836 --> 01:18:28,304
To the press.
1282
01:18:28,337 --> 01:18:29,939
To the networks.
1283
01:18:31,274 --> 01:18:34,010
A military plot
to overthrow the government,
1284
01:18:34,043 --> 01:18:36,179
led by these gentlemen.
1285
01:18:37,981 --> 01:18:40,316
I know all the details.
1286
01:18:40,349 --> 01:18:42,418
I have a request...
1287
01:18:42,451 --> 01:18:44,954
For live ammo
for slam dunk.
1288
01:18:44,988 --> 01:18:48,224
I will explain how
Arthur Daniels was murdered,
1289
01:18:48,257 --> 01:18:51,294
causing his body
to be exhumed.
1290
01:18:51,327 --> 01:18:54,798
And I will confess
to the ordered murder
1291
01:18:54,831 --> 01:18:57,166
of his secretary Sarah
myself.
1292
01:18:57,200 --> 01:18:59,402
The post
1293
01:18:59,435 --> 01:19:01,404
will find
1294
01:19:01,437 --> 01:19:02,939
memos...
1295
01:19:02,972 --> 01:19:05,441
In general Lloyd's
private code
1296
01:19:05,474 --> 01:19:08,444
tucked away in some
very interesting files.
1297
01:19:08,477 --> 01:19:11,280
There's a memo
from Lloyd to Daniels.
1298
01:19:11,314 --> 01:19:14,217
It sets up
most of the plot--
1299
01:19:14,250 --> 01:19:16,219
clear about my involvement
1300
01:19:16,252 --> 01:19:17,887
and, of course,
1301
01:19:17,921 --> 01:19:18,922
yours.
1302
01:19:21,424 --> 01:19:23,392
Who's going to believe you?
1303
01:19:23,426 --> 01:19:25,394
Nobody knows who you are.
1304
01:19:25,428 --> 01:19:26,896
You're just another colonel.
1305
01:19:26,930 --> 01:19:28,998
So was Oliver north.
1306
01:19:29,032 --> 01:19:30,499
People are funny.
1307
01:19:30,533 --> 01:19:34,370
They won't believe
an accusation
from the president,
1308
01:19:34,403 --> 01:19:38,407
but they'll believe
a confession from
just about anybody.
1309
01:19:47,450 --> 01:19:50,453
You'd go all the way
with this?
1310
01:19:51,955 --> 01:19:54,023
Career, family--
1311
01:19:54,057 --> 01:19:55,524
you'd lose it all.
1312
01:19:55,558 --> 01:19:59,695
I'll lose it all anyway
if you're in charge.
1313
01:20:02,465 --> 01:20:04,934
Here's what we're
going to do.
1314
01:20:04,968 --> 01:20:07,436
We're going to stagger
the resignations
1315
01:20:07,470 --> 01:20:09,738
over the next year.
1316
01:20:09,772 --> 01:20:11,908
I'm not going to fire you.
1317
01:20:11,941 --> 01:20:13,042
Not yet.
1318
01:20:13,076 --> 01:20:16,145
First, you're going to
stand behind me
1319
01:20:16,179 --> 01:20:18,647
while I announce
the general's resignation,
1320
01:20:18,681 --> 01:20:20,149
which I want now.
1321
01:20:20,183 --> 01:20:22,651
Alert the networks,
get everything ready.
1322
01:20:22,685 --> 01:20:26,655
I want to talk
to the nation
in 10 minutes.
1323
01:20:26,689 --> 01:20:28,157
I don't propose, general,
1324
01:20:28,191 --> 01:20:30,459
that the country
ever find out
1325
01:20:30,493 --> 01:20:33,796
just how close you came
to tearing it into pieces.
1326
01:20:33,829 --> 01:20:34,797
Mac.
1327
01:20:34,830 --> 01:20:36,332
Sir.
1328
01:20:37,500 --> 01:20:38,501
Thank you.
1329
01:20:42,505 --> 01:20:45,474
Make sure the general
carries out my order.
1330
01:20:45,508 --> 01:20:46,509
Yes, sir.
1331
01:20:49,012 --> 01:20:50,479
Let's go.
1332
01:20:50,513 --> 01:20:53,749
You've got some
phone calls to make.
1333
01:20:53,782 --> 01:20:55,518
[Door opens
and closes]
1334
01:21:05,528 --> 01:21:08,797
Do you know who
Judas was, colonel?
1335
01:21:08,831 --> 01:21:09,999
Yes.
1336
01:21:10,033 --> 01:21:11,867
I know who Judas was.
1337
01:21:13,369 --> 01:21:17,140
He was a man
i worked for and
once respected...
1338
01:21:17,173 --> 01:21:20,676
Until he disgraced
the four stars
of his uniform.
1339
01:21:35,992 --> 01:21:37,961
My fellow Americans,
1340
01:21:37,994 --> 01:21:40,964
tonight I must announce
with deep regret
1341
01:21:40,997 --> 01:21:43,967
that I have asked for
and accepted
1342
01:21:44,000 --> 01:21:46,970
the resignation of
general r. Pendleton Lloyd
1343
01:21:47,003 --> 01:21:49,572
as chairman of
the joint chiefs of staff.
1344
01:21:49,605 --> 01:21:53,109
I have the highest regard
for the general.
1345
01:21:54,410 --> 01:21:58,314
However, he recently conceded
to secretary Potter
1346
01:21:58,347 --> 01:21:59,815
and to me
1347
01:21:59,848 --> 01:22:04,020
that our differences
are just too great to reconcile.
1348
01:22:04,053 --> 01:22:06,022
That being the case,
1349
01:22:06,055 --> 01:22:07,890
I had no choice
1350
01:22:07,923 --> 01:22:09,925
but to accept
his resignation.
1351
01:22:11,294 --> 01:22:13,262
In recent months,
1352
01:22:13,296 --> 01:22:16,199
there has been abroad
and in this land
1353
01:22:16,232 --> 01:22:20,703
a whisper that we have
somehow lost our greatness.
1354
01:22:20,736 --> 01:22:22,738
Well, it is not so.
1355
01:22:24,307 --> 01:22:26,976
We must not allow ourselves
1356
01:22:27,010 --> 01:22:28,477
to be persuaded
1357
01:22:28,511 --> 01:22:30,980
to exchange our liberties
1358
01:22:31,014 --> 01:22:33,516
for anyone else's order.
1359
01:22:35,384 --> 01:22:37,353
We must not be dismayed
1360
01:22:37,386 --> 01:22:39,288
if democracy,
even in crisis,
1361
01:22:39,322 --> 01:22:42,158
is an untidy form
of government.
1362
01:22:43,326 --> 01:22:45,294
We are united
1363
01:22:45,328 --> 01:22:47,997
in remaining strong
and proud,
1364
01:22:48,031 --> 01:22:49,498
peaceful,
1365
01:22:49,532 --> 01:22:52,501
and committed
to laying down our lives
1366
01:22:52,535 --> 01:22:55,804
for our way of life
if need be.
1367
01:22:55,838 --> 01:22:57,173
Thank you.
1368
01:22:58,674 --> 01:23:00,476
Good night
1369
01:23:00,509 --> 01:23:02,011
and god bless you.
1370
01:23:03,579 --> 01:23:06,649
And god bless
the United States of America.
