1
00:00:04,938 --> 00:00:06,440
Good evening.
2
00:00:06,507 --> 00:00:09,143
On December 16, we lost our
dear friend and colleague,
3
00:00:09,210 --> 00:00:10,378
John Spencer.
4
00:00:10,444 --> 00:00:12,313
Through our shock and grief,
5
00:00:12,380 --> 00:00:15,249
we can think of no more fitting
memorial to this wonderful man,
6
00:00:15,316 --> 00:00:17,218
this extraordinary actor,
7
00:00:17,285 --> 00:00:18,986
than to share with you,
beginning tonight,
8
00:00:19,053 --> 00:00:22,390
the last few months of his work
here on The West Wing.
9
00:00:22,456 --> 00:00:24,425
Johnny, it seems
we hardly knew you.
10
00:00:24,492 --> 00:00:26,527
We love you
and we miss you.
11
00:00:27,495 --> 00:00:29,563
Previously on The West Wing...
12
00:00:29,630 --> 00:00:31,265
SULLIVAN:
You're looking at
the next vice president.
13
00:00:31,332 --> 00:00:33,134
For the next front runner
14
00:00:33,201 --> 00:00:34,968
for the Republican nomination
for president.
15
00:00:35,035 --> 00:00:35,903
Do you own a tux?
16
00:00:35,969 --> 00:00:37,605
Excuse me?
17
00:00:37,671 --> 00:00:39,240
I mean, I was just
going to go stag, but...
18
00:00:39,307 --> 00:00:40,774
if you're not busy later.
19
00:00:40,841 --> 00:00:42,676
MILES:
There's been an incident
in Kazakhstan.
20
00:00:42,743 --> 00:00:44,145
The protests
at Alma Ata
21
00:00:44,212 --> 00:00:46,080
turned violent
and Tarimov sent in riot police.
22
00:00:46,147 --> 00:00:46,914
Any casualties?
23
00:00:46,980 --> 00:00:47,915
Could be up to 200,
24
00:00:47,981 --> 00:00:49,016
many of them
ethnic Chinese.
25
00:00:49,083 --> 00:00:50,651
SANTOS:
What's this?
26
00:00:50,718 --> 00:00:51,952
That's Leo's
approval rating
on his own.
27
00:00:52,019 --> 00:00:53,454
Don't worry
about it.
28
00:00:53,521 --> 00:00:55,089
It's not like he's
a drag on the ticket.
29
00:00:55,156 --> 00:00:56,190
LEO:
I'm just saying,
30
00:00:56,257 --> 00:00:57,458
I been at this
for a while,
31
00:00:57,525 --> 00:00:58,959
I don't need
the babysitting.
32
00:00:59,026 --> 00:01:00,661
Just because you've trained
a Preakness jockey
33
00:01:00,728 --> 00:01:02,230
doesn't mean you know
how to sit a horse.
34
00:01:03,297 --> 00:01:04,198
So how are you?
35
00:01:04,265 --> 00:01:05,566
Indicted. You?
36
00:01:12,573 --> 00:01:15,709
Health care
in this country's a mess.
37
00:01:15,776 --> 00:01:16,610
Wait.
38
00:01:16,677 --> 00:01:17,911
It's "health care is broken."
39
00:01:17,978 --> 00:01:19,313
I think "mess" is better.
40
00:01:19,380 --> 00:01:20,648
I know broken's what
we have a line for,
41
00:01:20,714 --> 00:01:23,217
but we should work
the word "mess" in.
42
00:01:23,284 --> 00:01:24,685
Let's start again.
43
00:01:24,752 --> 00:01:27,455
Health care's a mess,
the system is broken.
44
00:01:27,521 --> 00:01:28,756
"Broke?"
45
00:01:28,822 --> 00:01:30,158
"Broken" is what they agreed on.
46
00:01:30,791 --> 00:01:31,392
I'm sorry.
47
00:01:31,459 --> 00:01:32,460
No.
No, no.
48
00:01:32,526 --> 00:01:33,527
Sorry.
49
00:01:33,594 --> 00:01:34,762
What'd you say,
"broke" or "broken"?
50
00:01:34,828 --> 00:01:37,631
"Broken"-- it sets up
the bite better.
51
00:01:37,698 --> 00:01:40,501
Health care in this country
is broken,
52
00:01:40,568 --> 00:01:43,204
and the Republican Congress's
attitude is...
53
00:01:43,271 --> 00:01:44,505
"Seems to be"?
54
00:01:44,572 --> 00:01:46,140
"Is."
"Is" is stronger.
55
00:01:46,207 --> 00:01:49,810
The Republican Congress...
56
00:01:49,877 --> 00:01:51,245
"Congressional Republicans"?
57
00:01:51,312 --> 00:01:53,747
The Republican Congress's
attitude is
58
00:01:53,814 --> 00:01:55,449
if it ain't broke,
don't fix...
59
00:01:55,516 --> 00:01:57,785
Ah!
60
00:01:57,851 --> 00:01:58,819
"It is broke."
61
00:01:58,886 --> 00:01:59,820
I can't believe...
62
00:01:59,887 --> 00:02:00,888
I screwed it up.
63
00:02:00,954 --> 00:02:02,089
Idiot.
64
00:02:02,156 --> 00:02:03,191
I screwed the line up.
65
00:02:03,257 --> 00:02:04,692
ANNABETH:
Leo, it's all right.
66
00:02:04,758 --> 00:02:08,462
The Republican Congress's
attitude seems to be...
67
00:02:08,529 --> 00:02:09,597
"Is."
68
00:02:12,833 --> 00:02:15,636
The Republican Congress's
attitude is,
69
00:02:15,703 --> 00:02:17,538
if it is broke,
don't fix it.
70
00:02:17,605 --> 00:02:18,239
No, wait.
71
00:02:18,306 --> 00:02:19,340
No, that's it.
72
00:02:19,407 --> 00:02:20,674
That didn't sound right.
73
00:02:20,741 --> 00:02:21,742
That's the line.
74
00:02:21,809 --> 00:02:22,476
Yeah?
75
00:02:22,543 --> 00:02:23,677
That was it.
76
00:02:23,744 --> 00:02:24,712
Really?
77
00:02:26,947 --> 00:02:28,349
Hallelujah.
78
00:02:28,416 --> 00:02:30,117
Anybody got a cigarette?
79
00:02:30,184 --> 00:02:31,051
ANNABETH:
We just started.
80
00:02:31,118 --> 00:02:32,686
I know.
81
00:02:32,753 --> 00:02:34,255
But I'd like to smoke it,
then have someone shoot me.
82
00:02:34,322 --> 00:02:35,623
( laughs )
I'm sorry.
83
00:02:35,689 --> 00:02:37,625
No, it's fine,
that's what this is for.
84
00:02:37,691 --> 00:02:38,492
Keep going.
85
00:02:38,559 --> 00:02:40,494
Governor Sullivan,
your response?
86
00:02:40,561 --> 00:02:41,729
Mr. McGarry keeps
falling back
87
00:02:41,795 --> 00:02:42,463
on the same trick.
88
00:02:42,530 --> 00:02:43,731
When it's something good
89
00:02:43,797 --> 00:02:45,266
that's happened
in the past eight years,
90
00:02:45,333 --> 00:02:47,501
he touts his service
in the Bartlet White House.
91
00:02:47,568 --> 00:02:49,303
When it's something
he disapproves of,
92
00:02:49,370 --> 00:02:51,405
he lays the blame
on the Republican Congress.
93
00:02:51,472 --> 00:02:54,775
Now, I submit that if the
health care system is broken,
94
00:02:54,842 --> 00:02:56,410
it happened on his watch.
95
00:02:56,477 --> 00:02:58,512
If your repairman
can't fix something
96
00:02:58,579 --> 00:03:00,314
after eight years
of trying,
97
00:03:00,381 --> 00:03:02,450
I think the American
people realize
98
00:03:02,516 --> 00:03:04,718
it's time to try
someone else.
99
00:03:06,086 --> 00:03:07,255
Mr. McGarry?
100
00:03:08,789 --> 00:03:10,391
Mr. McGarry?
101
00:03:10,458 --> 00:03:11,925
I need, um...
102
00:03:11,992 --> 00:03:13,361
Boy, that's a good answer.
103
00:03:13,427 --> 00:03:14,862
I'm going to need, um...
104
00:03:14,928 --> 00:03:18,031
This broke thing,
it's a trap, isn't it?
105
00:03:18,098 --> 00:03:19,132
I'm just leading with...
106
00:03:19,199 --> 00:03:20,368
I'm leading with
my chin here.
107
00:03:20,434 --> 00:03:21,802
These canned...
108
00:03:21,869 --> 00:03:23,804
These pre-canned...
109
00:03:26,540 --> 00:03:27,341
Can we take a break?
110
00:03:27,408 --> 00:03:29,209
( sighs )
111
00:03:30,143 --> 00:03:31,912
Yeah, Josh...
112
00:03:31,979 --> 00:03:34,782
about the V.P. debate Sunday.
113
00:03:34,848 --> 00:03:36,384
We may have a problem.
114
00:04:26,066 --> 00:04:27,200
until the election, right?
115
00:04:27,267 --> 00:04:28,402
DONNA:
No idea, does he?
116
00:04:28,469 --> 00:04:29,903
Let me put it another way:
117
00:04:29,970 --> 00:04:31,472
tell him this is his last trip
home until the election.
118
00:04:31,539 --> 00:04:32,740
You didn't tell him?
119
00:04:32,806 --> 00:04:34,041
JOSH:
Not in so many words.
120
00:04:34,107 --> 00:04:34,942
In any words?
121
00:04:35,008 --> 00:04:36,109
Tell me what?
122
00:04:36,176 --> 00:04:37,110
Josh said this is
your last trip home
123
00:04:37,177 --> 00:04:38,278
until the election.
124
00:04:38,346 --> 00:04:39,112
Donna!
125
00:04:39,179 --> 00:04:39,980
What?
126
00:04:40,047 --> 00:04:41,014
Some deftness.
127
00:04:41,081 --> 00:04:42,215
Little finesse.
128
00:04:42,282 --> 00:04:43,651
I know.
129
00:04:43,717 --> 00:04:44,518
He knows.
130
00:04:44,585 --> 00:04:45,419
That's not the point.
131
00:04:45,486 --> 00:04:46,387
Tell Josh to chill.
132
00:04:46,454 --> 00:04:47,555
DONNA:
Josh, chill.
133
00:04:47,621 --> 00:04:48,489
Did you just tell me to chill?
134
00:04:48,556 --> 00:04:49,890
It would appear so.
135
00:04:49,957 --> 00:04:52,092
Is it somehow not clear
that I'm your boss?
136
00:04:52,159 --> 00:04:52,960
Congressman's recommendation.
137
00:04:53,026 --> 00:04:54,194
Oh.
138
00:04:54,261 --> 00:04:55,663
With which
I heartily concur.
139
00:04:55,729 --> 00:04:57,665
Yeah. I-I don't think
you tell me to chill.
140
00:04:57,731 --> 00:04:59,900
I wanted to scream it everyday
for eight years.
141
00:04:59,967 --> 00:05:01,835
Whatever inhibition
prevented you,
142
00:05:01,902 --> 00:05:03,103
summon it.
143
00:05:03,170 --> 00:05:03,904
It's here!
144
00:05:03,971 --> 00:05:04,838
I got to go.
145
00:05:04,905 --> 00:05:05,939
How does Lou look?
146
00:05:06,006 --> 00:05:07,174
Like she
always does.
147
00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:08,409
Be kind of butch on me,
but Lou makes it work.
148
00:05:08,476 --> 00:05:09,877
Does she look happy?
149
00:05:09,943 --> 00:05:10,744
Worried?
150
00:05:10,811 --> 00:05:12,079
"Stricken"might be the word.
151
00:05:12,145 --> 00:05:13,280
Hyperbole, right?
152
00:05:13,347 --> 00:05:14,415
Your well-known
predilection
153
00:05:14,482 --> 00:05:15,616
for panic and exaggeration?
154
00:05:15,683 --> 00:05:16,550
Well, I don't have
a predilection
155
00:05:16,617 --> 00:05:17,618
for panic and exaggeration.
156
00:05:17,685 --> 00:05:18,819
For the purposes
of this moment,
157
00:05:18,886 --> 00:05:20,388
let's stipulate
that you do.
158
00:05:21,989 --> 00:05:23,724
Is it really that bad?
159
00:05:23,791 --> 00:05:25,325
No.
160
00:05:25,393 --> 00:05:26,594
It's worse.
161
00:05:27,528 --> 00:05:28,796
( inserting videotape into VCR)
162
00:05:28,862 --> 00:05:30,431
Why won't you
and Congressman Santos
163
00:05:30,498 --> 00:05:32,099
commit to a pledge
not to raise taxes?
164
00:05:32,165 --> 00:05:33,300
Because it's
a lie.
165
00:05:33,367 --> 00:05:34,502
OTTO:
Is my opponent calling
166
00:05:34,568 --> 00:05:36,770
Senator Vinick
and myself liars?
167
00:05:36,837 --> 00:05:38,472
LEO:
The American people want
168
00:05:38,539 --> 00:05:40,674
the services
government provides.
169
00:05:40,741 --> 00:05:43,276
They cost money and
have to be paid for.
170
00:05:43,343 --> 00:05:45,846
We're running out unacceptable
deficits as it is.
171
00:05:45,913 --> 00:05:47,214
He gets better, yes?
172
00:05:47,280 --> 00:05:48,749
This is
the high-water mark.
173
00:05:48,816 --> 00:05:49,316
( sighs )
174
00:05:49,383 --> 00:05:52,352
Switch it off.
175
00:05:52,420 --> 00:05:53,220
they can get
something for nothing...
176
00:05:53,286 --> 00:05:54,888
( ejects tape )
177
00:05:57,090 --> 00:05:58,492
What?
178
00:05:58,559 --> 00:05:59,593
LOU:
Sullivan's
a killer,
179
00:05:59,660 --> 00:06:00,861
the kid did what he had to do.
180
00:06:00,928 --> 00:06:03,931
The rest of it's...
really that bad?
181
00:06:03,997 --> 00:06:04,998
Watch it.
182
00:06:05,065 --> 00:06:05,933
Can you fix it?
183
00:06:05,999 --> 00:06:06,767
Have to,
184
00:06:06,834 --> 00:06:07,868
the debate's in two days.
185
00:06:07,935 --> 00:06:08,702
Anybody breathes
186
00:06:08,769 --> 00:06:10,337
a word of this to the outside,
187
00:06:10,404 --> 00:06:13,206
I will devise a punishment that
would make Torquemada blanch.
188
00:06:13,273 --> 00:06:14,207
Why not leak it?
189
00:06:14,274 --> 00:06:15,709
Play the expectations game.
190
00:06:15,776 --> 00:06:16,977
That doesn't work when
you lower expectations
191
00:06:17,044 --> 00:06:18,245
and your guy meets them.
192
00:06:18,311 --> 00:06:20,213
( intercom buzzes )
193
00:06:20,280 --> 00:06:21,449
Yeah?
194
00:06:22,315 --> 00:06:23,784
Yeah.
195
00:06:24,652 --> 00:06:25,819
It's, uh,Leo, line two.
196
00:06:34,428 --> 00:06:35,463
Hey.
197
00:06:35,529 --> 00:06:37,164
LEO:
Hey.
198
00:06:37,230 --> 00:06:38,398
So?
199
00:06:38,466 --> 00:06:39,399
I never got to see it.
200
00:06:39,467 --> 00:06:42,002
The machine ate
the tape.
201
00:06:42,936 --> 00:06:44,605
You didn't see any of it?
202
00:06:44,672 --> 00:06:46,907
JOSH:
No, the-the damn thing
just fried.
203
00:06:46,974 --> 00:06:48,108
Smoke and everything.
204
00:06:48,175 --> 00:06:50,343
I was worried it was going
to set off the sprinklers.
205
00:06:50,410 --> 00:06:52,680
That the only copy?
206
00:06:52,746 --> 00:06:54,114
Yes, it's the only copy.
207
00:06:54,181 --> 00:06:57,618
That's too bad.
208
00:06:57,685 --> 00:06:59,520
So, what was the report?
209
00:06:59,587 --> 00:07:01,421
JOSH:
Uh... it was good.
210
00:07:01,489 --> 00:07:02,990
You know, some bumps...
211
00:07:03,056 --> 00:07:05,025
in spots...
212
00:07:05,092 --> 00:07:06,359
things to work on.
213
00:07:06,426 --> 00:07:07,661
That's was debate prep is for.
214
00:07:07,728 --> 00:07:10,097
We'll fine tune tomorrow.
215
00:07:10,163 --> 00:07:11,164
Yeah.
216
00:07:11,231 --> 00:07:12,099
Get some rest.
217
00:07:12,165 --> 00:07:13,333
We need you to look
218
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:15,068
pretty for 20 million
TV viewers.
219
00:07:15,135 --> 00:07:17,971
That's what we're counting on,
campaign's doomed.
220
00:07:18,038 --> 00:07:19,507
See you tomorrow.
221
00:07:50,337 --> 00:07:52,472
We should let them set up.
We want pictures.
222
00:07:52,540 --> 00:07:54,007
The candidate's return.
223
00:07:54,074 --> 00:07:56,043
Reconnecting
to his loving,
photogenic family.
224
00:07:56,109 --> 00:07:58,579
Cause God forbid
any normal human behavior
225
00:07:58,646 --> 00:07:59,980
should go unpoliticized.
226
00:08:00,047 --> 00:08:01,882
Vinick's kids are approaching
menopause.
227
00:08:01,949 --> 00:08:03,350
We want to get
some heartwarming footage
228
00:08:03,416 --> 00:08:04,618
of your adorable young children
229
00:08:04,685 --> 00:08:06,219
hugging their hale
and vital dad.
230
00:08:06,286 --> 00:08:07,454
( laughs )
231
00:08:07,521 --> 00:08:08,789
"Vital."
232
00:08:08,856 --> 00:08:10,758
A subliminal reminder
that actuarially,
233
00:08:10,824 --> 00:08:12,726
you're far less likely
to keel over in the Rose Garden
234
00:08:12,793 --> 00:08:14,094
than your esteemed opponent.
235
00:08:14,161 --> 00:08:14,995
We're set.
236
00:08:15,062 --> 00:08:15,729
Out on the lawn?
237
00:08:15,796 --> 00:08:17,531
Makes a prettier
picture.
238
00:08:21,702 --> 00:08:23,871
( whistles )
239
00:08:23,937 --> 00:08:25,505
Hey!
240
00:08:25,573 --> 00:08:26,574
Hey, how you doing!
241
00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:27,941
How you doing, Buddy?
Good.
242
00:08:28,008 --> 00:08:29,042
What's happening?
( laughing )
243
00:08:29,109 --> 00:08:30,377
How are you?
Take it easy,
244
00:08:30,443 --> 00:08:31,779
he's not
feeling well.
245
00:08:31,845 --> 00:08:32,713
Oh, really?
What's wrong,
Buddy?
246
00:08:32,780 --> 00:08:34,114
Got a cold.
Ooh.
247
00:08:34,181 --> 00:08:35,448
Oh, thank you
for that gift.
Oh, sweetheart!
248
00:08:35,515 --> 00:08:36,884
( family laughing )
249
00:08:36,950 --> 00:08:37,785
Hey, sweetie!
250
00:08:37,851 --> 00:08:39,486
Welcome home, Daddy.
Oh...
251
00:08:39,553 --> 00:08:41,521
Thank you, Angel,
it's good to be home.
252
00:08:41,589 --> 00:08:43,090
My throat's scratchy.
253
00:08:43,156 --> 00:08:44,124
Okay...
254
00:08:44,191 --> 00:08:45,092
Hey.
How are you?
255
00:08:45,158 --> 00:08:46,794
Had a little touch
of Ebola,
256
00:08:46,860 --> 00:08:48,295
but I think I'm over
the worst of it.
257
00:08:49,096 --> 00:08:50,163
Hi, guys!
258
00:08:50,230 --> 00:08:52,566
How's it going?
259
00:08:52,633 --> 00:08:54,134
LEO:
They're looking over
their shoulder.
260
00:08:54,201 --> 00:08:55,903
And we've got movement
in Illinois,
261
00:08:55,969 --> 00:08:59,172
solidifying nicely
in New Jersey...
262
00:08:59,239 --> 00:09:00,674
trending well in Florida.
263
00:09:00,741 --> 00:09:02,209
Mention Illinois.
264
00:09:02,275 --> 00:09:05,779
Thing is definitely
tightening up.
265
00:09:05,846 --> 00:09:09,249
Yeah, well, fortunately
there's nothing less impactful
266
00:09:09,316 --> 00:09:10,317
than the V.P. debate.
267
00:09:10,383 --> 00:09:11,619
I shouldn't hurt us
too bad.
268
00:09:11,685 --> 00:09:13,987
Okay, Bob,
talk to you soon.
269
00:09:14,054 --> 00:09:17,257
When I was in business,
all we talked was politics.
270
00:09:17,324 --> 00:09:19,627
Now that I'm running for office,
all I talk is money.
271
00:09:19,693 --> 00:09:20,728
Shake some loose?
272
00:09:20,794 --> 00:09:22,062
We'll see.
273
00:09:24,464 --> 00:09:26,066
So?
274
00:09:26,133 --> 00:09:27,067
How'd I do?
275
00:09:27,134 --> 00:09:28,268
The mock debate?
276
00:09:28,335 --> 00:09:29,837
Well, I don't think
I have the standing
277
00:09:29,903 --> 00:09:31,238
to critique
the substance.
278
00:09:31,304 --> 00:09:33,140
An artful dodge.
279
00:09:33,206 --> 00:09:34,642
Uncharacteristic.
280
00:09:34,708 --> 00:09:36,509
Your usual
conversational mode
281
00:09:36,576 --> 00:09:39,046
tending more toward
blunt instrument.
282
00:09:39,112 --> 00:09:40,347
On style, then.
283
00:09:40,413 --> 00:09:41,181
Uh!
284
00:09:41,248 --> 00:09:41,949
That was horrible.
285
00:09:42,015 --> 00:09:43,150
Hey, there's the cudgel.
286
00:09:43,216 --> 00:09:44,584
But, we can
relax your posture,
287
00:09:44,652 --> 00:09:45,719
relocate the voice,
288
00:09:45,786 --> 00:09:46,820
corral that fidgeting,
289
00:09:46,887 --> 00:09:48,455
and knock
some years off.
290
00:09:48,521 --> 00:09:49,857
Not again with the Botox.
291
00:09:49,923 --> 00:09:51,892
Hair and makeup room--
man's best friend.
292
00:09:51,959 --> 00:09:53,326
Plan to spend some time there!
293
00:09:53,393 --> 00:09:54,561
It's a hair
and makeup room,
294
00:09:54,628 --> 00:09:56,029
it's not
a time machine.
295
00:09:56,096 --> 00:09:57,831
None of this is
your problem.
296
00:09:57,898 --> 00:09:59,633
You're going
to tell me what is.
297
00:10:00,300 --> 00:10:01,635
Your smirk.
298
00:10:01,702 --> 00:10:03,003
My what?
299
00:10:03,070 --> 00:10:04,437
Yeah. You're doing it now.
300
00:10:04,504 --> 00:10:05,739
No, I'm not.
301
00:10:05,806 --> 00:10:07,908
It's your
default expression, Leo.
302
00:10:07,975 --> 00:10:09,176
What are you
talking...
303
00:10:10,277 --> 00:10:11,712
That's a scowl.
304
00:10:11,779 --> 00:10:12,913
I am scowling,
305
00:10:12,980 --> 00:10:15,248
which is, in itself,
probably not great.
306
00:10:17,517 --> 00:10:19,319
That's the way
my mouth forms.
307
00:10:19,386 --> 00:10:21,021
From decades
of smirking.
308
00:10:22,022 --> 00:10:23,523
In the right context,
309
00:10:23,590 --> 00:10:24,858
extremely effective--
310
00:10:24,925 --> 00:10:27,828
commanding, reassuring,
even devastatingly sexy.
311
00:10:27,895 --> 00:10:29,496
Sexy?
In the right
context.
312
00:10:29,562 --> 00:10:30,630
In a debate,
313
00:10:30,698 --> 00:10:32,032
under the best
of circumstances,
314
00:10:32,099 --> 00:10:33,867
it reads as smug
and condescending.
315
00:10:33,934 --> 00:10:35,235
In the context
where
316
00:10:35,302 --> 00:10:36,737
you're getting waxed
by your opponent,
317
00:10:36,804 --> 00:10:38,538
it comes off as...
318
00:10:38,605 --> 00:10:40,307
clueless, defensive,
319
00:10:40,373 --> 00:10:42,042
and not a little pathetic.
320
00:10:42,109 --> 00:10:43,677
You seem to have
graduated from cudgel
321
00:10:43,744 --> 00:10:44,678
to bludgeon.
322
00:10:44,745 --> 00:10:46,046
But we're going to fix it.
323
00:10:46,113 --> 00:10:47,314
Are we?
324
00:10:48,548 --> 00:10:50,583
Mm.
325
00:10:50,650 --> 00:10:51,852
Now you're scowling again.
326
00:10:51,919 --> 00:10:53,653
Wonder why.
Mr. McGarry...
327
00:10:53,721 --> 00:10:55,923
can you explain why,
after eight years
328
00:10:55,989 --> 00:10:58,892
of the Bartlet presidency,
health care costs have exploded?
329
00:10:58,959 --> 00:11:01,528
Three little words:
the Republican Congress.
330
00:11:01,594 --> 00:11:03,997
( mimics game-show buzzer)
Now, that calls
for a little smirk
331
00:11:04,064 --> 00:11:06,967
as underlining, punctuation...
332
00:11:07,034 --> 00:11:08,969
It depends. Want to come off
as wise or wise-ass?
333
00:11:09,036 --> 00:11:10,137
I wasn't done.
334
00:11:10,203 --> 00:11:11,905
Finish.
335
00:11:11,972 --> 00:11:14,141
Give the Santos-McGarry
Administration a...
336
00:11:14,207 --> 00:11:15,242
No, the whole thing.
337
00:11:15,308 --> 00:11:17,377
Why has the cost
of health care exploded
338
00:11:17,444 --> 00:11:18,912
under Bartlet? Go.
339
00:11:20,948 --> 00:11:23,283
Three little words:
the Republican Congress.
340
00:11:23,350 --> 00:11:26,386
Give the Santos-
McGarry Administration
341
00:11:26,453 --> 00:11:28,588
a Democratic
congressional majority,
342
00:11:28,655 --> 00:11:30,824
we'll bring health care
costs under control
343
00:11:30,891 --> 00:11:32,760
our first year in office.
344
00:11:35,095 --> 00:11:36,496
You're doing it again.
345
00:11:36,563 --> 00:11:37,630
I am not!
346
00:11:37,697 --> 00:11:41,001
Leo... what's this?
347
00:11:41,068 --> 00:11:44,071
Want to lose those,
clear to the knuckle?
348
00:11:44,137 --> 00:11:46,740
I want to see this,
not this.
349
00:11:46,807 --> 00:11:48,241
What my life has come to.
350
00:11:48,308 --> 00:11:50,377
And it wouldn't kill you
to throw in a few specifics.
351
00:11:50,443 --> 00:11:52,112
Thought you
didn't do content.
352
00:11:52,179 --> 00:11:53,180
Ah-ah-ah.
353
00:11:56,649 --> 00:11:58,285
Hey, you looking for me?
354
00:11:58,351 --> 00:11:59,820
If you've
got a minute,
355
00:11:59,887 --> 00:12:01,688
can you brief me on this
Kazakhstan situation?
356
00:12:01,755 --> 00:12:02,790
The press is starting
to ask me more questions
357
00:12:02,856 --> 00:12:03,991
than I have answers.
358
00:12:04,057 --> 00:12:05,258
Sure. What do you
want to know?
359
00:12:05,325 --> 00:12:06,994
Has a deal been struck
to keep Chinese troops
360
00:12:07,060 --> 00:12:08,328
on their side
of the border?
That's classified.
361
00:12:08,395 --> 00:12:10,197
So if there was a deal,
the details would be...
362
00:12:10,263 --> 00:12:11,799
Also classified, if
there were details.
363
00:12:11,865 --> 00:12:13,466
If there was a deal,
which is...
Classified.
364
00:12:13,533 --> 00:12:14,902
As you said.
365
00:12:14,968 --> 00:12:16,003
Have elections
been rescheduled?
In Kazakhstan?
366
00:12:16,069 --> 00:12:16,904
That's our subject.
367
00:12:16,970 --> 00:12:18,271
Also classified, though,
368
00:12:18,338 --> 00:12:20,107
for the life of me,
can't imagine why.
369
00:12:20,173 --> 00:12:21,574
You're enjoying this,
aren't you?
Not really, no.
370
00:12:21,641 --> 00:12:24,111
Have the parties agreed to
U.N. monitors in this election
371
00:12:24,177 --> 00:12:25,645
that may or may not
be rescheduled?
372
00:12:25,712 --> 00:12:26,780
Classified.
373
00:12:26,847 --> 00:12:28,015
You're just playing with me now.
374
00:12:28,081 --> 00:12:29,282
Honestly, I'm not.
375
00:12:29,349 --> 00:12:32,085
Is the subject of monitors
being discussed?
376
00:12:32,152 --> 00:12:34,621
It's in the papers it is.
377
00:12:34,687 --> 00:12:35,956
They didn't hear it from us.
378
00:12:36,023 --> 00:12:37,791
So it's being
considered?
379
00:12:37,858 --> 00:12:39,492
Debated? Negotiated?
380
00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:40,727
Anywhere?
381
00:12:40,794 --> 00:12:42,329
By anyone?
I'm so sorry.
382
00:12:42,395 --> 00:12:43,897
Makes you feel powerful.
383
00:12:43,964 --> 00:12:45,665
"I am woman;
hear me withhold."
384
00:12:45,732 --> 00:12:46,633
It's not like that.
A little.
385
00:12:46,699 --> 00:12:47,700
At moments.
This moment?
386
00:12:47,767 --> 00:12:48,969
A bit.
387
00:12:49,036 --> 00:12:50,337
It's disturbingly
compelling.
388
00:12:50,403 --> 00:12:52,405
What's that say about you?
Nothing good.
389
00:12:52,472 --> 00:12:53,340
( chuckles )
390
00:12:53,406 --> 00:12:54,574
Oh, I want to thank you
391
00:12:54,641 --> 00:12:55,608
for all the illuminating help.
392
00:12:55,675 --> 00:12:57,410
Any time.
393
00:13:00,513 --> 00:13:01,781
Nice to be home, honey.
394
00:13:01,849 --> 00:13:03,583
A little semblance
of normalcy.
395
00:13:03,650 --> 00:13:05,318
( laughing ):
Normalcy ain't what it
used to be.
396
00:13:05,385 --> 00:13:08,055
Yeah, well, I'm sorry
about all this.
397
00:13:08,121 --> 00:13:10,190
Small price to pay
to have you home.
398
00:13:10,257 --> 00:13:11,992
So those Secret Service
guys, they're okay?
399
00:13:12,059 --> 00:13:13,060
They stay outside?
400
00:13:13,126 --> 00:13:14,261
Yeah.
401
00:13:14,327 --> 00:13:16,196
And all the neighbors,
they're all right
402
00:13:16,263 --> 00:13:17,697
with the guys with
dark glasses posted
around the house?
403
00:13:17,764 --> 00:13:18,999
Are you kidding?
404
00:13:19,066 --> 00:13:21,801
They now live on the safest
block in America.
405
00:13:21,869 --> 00:13:25,005
( sighs )
406
00:13:25,072 --> 00:13:26,840
Sir, did you want
to go somewhere?
407
00:13:26,907 --> 00:13:28,208
I was just going
to get the mail.
408
00:13:28,275 --> 00:13:29,877
Of course, sir--
we'll just need a few minutes
409
00:13:29,943 --> 00:13:30,944
to shut down the street.
410
00:13:31,011 --> 00:13:32,079
To walk to the mail box?
411
00:13:32,145 --> 00:13:34,147
Anytime you go
into the front yard.
412
00:13:34,214 --> 00:13:36,116
Do we really need
to get into all that?
413
00:13:36,183 --> 00:13:37,784
I'm afraid so, sir.
414
00:13:37,851 --> 00:13:39,920
Uh, it's okay, it's...
415
00:13:39,987 --> 00:13:41,321
( whistles )
Never mind!
416
00:13:41,388 --> 00:13:43,456
We'll get someone
to retrieve the mail for you.
417
00:13:43,523 --> 00:13:44,624
Fine.
418
00:13:44,691 --> 00:13:45,959
Then it'll need
to be screened.
419
00:13:46,026 --> 00:13:50,097
Do whatever
you have to do.
420
00:13:50,163 --> 00:13:51,899
What's that noise?
421
00:13:51,965 --> 00:13:53,666
Those are our vehicles.
422
00:13:53,733 --> 00:13:54,801
We keep their engines running.
423
00:13:54,868 --> 00:13:56,203
The neighbors must love that.
424
00:13:56,269 --> 00:13:58,371
Yes, sir.
425
00:14:02,042 --> 00:14:03,911
"McGarry Debate Debacle?"
426
00:14:03,977 --> 00:14:05,412
Where did he get this?
427
00:14:05,478 --> 00:14:07,180
Who knows how these bloggers
get their information.
428
00:14:07,247 --> 00:14:08,982
Well, considering it has
all the gory details,
429
00:14:09,049 --> 00:14:10,951
I'd have to say it
was from one of us.
430
00:14:11,018 --> 00:14:12,285
Don't say "us"
when you mean "you."
431
00:14:12,352 --> 00:14:13,921
I didn't
leak anything.
Me, neither.
432
00:14:13,987 --> 00:14:15,522
I'm this far
from ordering
433
00:14:15,588 --> 00:14:16,890
polygraph tests.
434
00:14:16,957 --> 00:14:18,058
Nobody mention this to Leo.
435
00:14:18,125 --> 00:14:19,927
His confidence as shaky
as it is.
436
00:14:22,262 --> 00:14:23,596
Hey.
437
00:14:23,663 --> 00:14:26,533
You see this?
438
00:14:26,599 --> 00:14:27,767
I heard...
439
00:14:27,834 --> 00:14:29,536
something about it, yeah.
440
00:14:30,770 --> 00:14:32,973
Let's get started.
441
00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:35,442
We evidently have
some work to do.
442
00:14:42,482 --> 00:14:45,452
as the transparent ploy it so
obviously is-- old as politics.
443
00:14:45,518 --> 00:14:47,554
We fully expect Leo McGarry
to be a fierce
444
00:14:47,620 --> 00:14:48,888
and formidable debate opponent.
445
00:14:48,956 --> 00:14:50,290
Off the record?
446
00:14:50,357 --> 00:14:52,459
I think you can sum up
the mood here
447
00:14:52,525 --> 00:14:54,727
at Vinick-Sullivan headquarters
as "yippee."
448
00:14:54,794 --> 00:14:56,763
Yeah. Thanks, Harv.
449
00:14:56,829 --> 00:14:58,698
Everyone's got it.
450
00:14:58,765 --> 00:14:59,967
God bless the Internet.
451
00:15:00,033 --> 00:15:02,102
It giveth and it taketh away.
452
00:15:02,169 --> 00:15:04,171
It's giving with both
hands on this baby.
453
00:15:04,237 --> 00:15:06,106
Let's not
be overconfident.
454
00:15:06,173 --> 00:15:08,241
You know, the best thing
about being warned
455
00:15:08,308 --> 00:15:10,577
about overconfidence
is it means you got
456
00:15:10,643 --> 00:15:12,980
a hell of a reason to feel
pretty damn confident.
457
00:15:13,046 --> 00:15:14,681
I'm not going
to be lulled by this.
458
00:15:14,747 --> 00:15:16,349
McGarry is verbal and tough.
459
00:15:16,416 --> 00:15:18,318
It's one thing to argue
behind the scenes.
460
00:15:18,385 --> 00:15:19,886
It's a whole
other ballgame
461
00:15:19,953 --> 00:15:21,354
doing it in a debate setting.
462
00:15:21,421 --> 00:15:23,156
Concerned about presentation,
tone...
463
00:15:23,223 --> 00:15:25,125
Clarity.
Concision.
464
00:15:25,192 --> 00:15:27,127
It's hard enough
for veteran politicians,
465
00:15:27,194 --> 00:15:28,996
let alone a neophyte
like McGarry.
466
00:15:29,062 --> 00:15:30,663
Leo's no neophyte.
467
00:15:30,730 --> 00:15:32,332
At being a candidate,
he is.
468
00:15:32,399 --> 00:15:34,634
You can go balls to the wall
all you like in private
469
00:15:34,701 --> 00:15:37,204
with the President-- try doing
that in public, on TV.
470
00:15:37,270 --> 00:15:38,705
Scares the horses.
471
00:15:38,771 --> 00:15:42,042
We go in just as hard,
just as strong, just as focused.
472
00:15:42,109 --> 00:15:43,510
MAYER:
You'll wipe the floor
with him.
473
00:15:43,576 --> 00:15:44,944
That was my plan,
regardless.
474
00:15:45,012 --> 00:15:46,579
If he's really that bad,
you might want
475
00:15:46,646 --> 00:15:48,415
to dial it back a notch.
You don't
want me to look
476
00:15:48,481 --> 00:15:50,350
like a bully?
Trick is to beat
his brains in
477
00:15:50,417 --> 00:15:52,185
without making people feel sorry
for the guy.
478
00:15:52,252 --> 00:15:53,586
Well, let's get to work.
479
00:15:53,653 --> 00:15:54,821
SANTOS:
So what speech am I giving?
480
00:15:54,887 --> 00:15:55,855
Plus the fundraising
appeal?
481
00:15:55,922 --> 00:15:57,457
Mm. Modified
stump.
482
00:15:57,524 --> 00:15:58,291
Modified.
483
00:15:58,358 --> 00:16:00,060
Shorter.
Less filling,
484
00:16:00,127 --> 00:16:01,428
tastes great.
Hopefully.
485
00:16:01,494 --> 00:16:03,096
It's Houston--
these people know you.
486
00:16:03,163 --> 00:16:04,231
Oh, they're sick
of hearing me talk.
487
00:16:04,297 --> 00:16:05,265
DONNA:
Conceivably.
488
00:16:05,332 --> 00:16:06,099
Thank you for your support.
489
00:16:06,166 --> 00:16:07,667
De nada.
490
00:16:07,734 --> 00:16:09,569
Anybody speak Spanish here?
( all chuckling )
491
00:16:09,636 --> 00:16:11,304
BRAM:
You want to spend less time
telling your friends
492
00:16:11,371 --> 00:16:12,472
what they
already know
493
00:16:12,539 --> 00:16:14,307
and more time
looking them in the eye
494
00:16:14,374 --> 00:16:15,775
and... asking them
for cash.
495
00:16:15,842 --> 00:16:17,710
There's a squirm factor
we're counting on.
496
00:16:17,777 --> 00:16:19,612
I could just hold them upside
down by the ankles,
497
00:16:19,679 --> 00:16:21,281
give them a good shake.
You may be after
498
00:16:21,348 --> 00:16:22,349
more than what they've got
in their pockets.
499
00:16:22,415 --> 00:16:23,650
Hey, this
is Houston.
500
00:16:23,716 --> 00:16:24,851
You never know.
501
00:16:24,917 --> 00:16:25,918
It's all about the dinero.
502
00:16:25,985 --> 00:16:27,154
That's money, right?
503
00:16:27,220 --> 00:16:29,589
( laughter )
504
00:16:29,656 --> 00:16:30,857
Uh, hey.
505
00:16:30,923 --> 00:16:32,759
Remember, we're trying
to build confidence,
506
00:16:32,825 --> 00:16:33,960
so hold back a little.
507
00:16:34,027 --> 00:16:35,995
This is only useful
if it's real.
508
00:16:36,063 --> 00:16:37,164
Don't hold back.
509
00:16:37,230 --> 00:16:38,665
JOSH:
Ready?
510
00:16:38,731 --> 00:16:39,866
Where's the camera?
511
00:16:39,932 --> 00:16:42,202
Uh, no taping--
the only people
512
00:16:42,269 --> 00:16:43,370
who need to see it
are right here.
513
00:16:43,436 --> 00:16:45,004
No, for my
own edification.
514
00:16:45,072 --> 00:16:46,306
Review?
Don't need you
515
00:16:46,373 --> 00:16:48,975
too self-conscious.
JOSH:
No split focus.
516
00:16:49,042 --> 00:16:50,410
We want you to concentrate
on your performance,
517
00:16:50,477 --> 00:16:51,611
not whether
your forehead is shining.
518
00:16:51,678 --> 00:16:53,012
ANNABETH:
For the record, your forehead
519
00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:54,681
is gorgeous,
actually making me hot.
520
00:16:54,747 --> 00:16:57,150
Let's get started.
521
00:16:57,217 --> 00:16:58,451
JOSH:
Uh, Mr. McGarry,
522
00:16:58,518 --> 00:16:59,986
the United States refuses
to recognize
523
00:17:00,053 --> 00:17:03,056
the U.N. International Criminal
Court's jurisdiction
524
00:17:03,123 --> 00:17:05,092
as it applies to itself,
yet implicitly
525
00:17:05,158 --> 00:17:06,593
seems to expect the rest
of the world
526
00:17:06,659 --> 00:17:09,062
to submit to that body's
legal authority.
527
00:17:09,129 --> 00:17:10,830
Isn't this arrogant
and hypocritical?
528
00:17:10,897 --> 00:17:12,332
Yes.
529
00:17:16,803 --> 00:17:20,573
Congressional withholding
of recognition of the I.C.C.
530
00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:22,909
has been one of the factors
contributing
531
00:17:22,975 --> 00:17:24,444
to growing
international resentment
532
00:17:24,511 --> 00:17:26,546
toward the
United States.
533
00:17:26,613 --> 00:17:29,282
And I know the argument
on the other side.
534
00:17:29,349 --> 00:17:31,551
Because the U.S. regularly
takes a leading role
535
00:17:31,618 --> 00:17:33,586
in military interventions
overseas,
536
00:17:33,653 --> 00:17:36,089
it leaves itself
especially vulnerable
537
00:17:36,156 --> 00:17:41,060
to potentially illegitimate
legal claims, motivated solely
538
00:17:41,128 --> 00:17:43,196
by ideological
539
00:17:43,263 --> 00:17:46,032
or political animus
with no countervailing
540
00:17:46,099 --> 00:17:48,568
checks or balances.
541
00:17:48,635 --> 00:17:52,239
But... to get back
to our position,
542
00:17:52,305 --> 00:17:55,108
the I.C.C. requires
the participation,
543
00:17:55,175 --> 00:17:56,743
to have true legitimacy,
544
00:17:56,809 --> 00:17:59,246
of the world's remaining
superpowers,
545
00:17:59,312 --> 00:18:00,480
sole remaining...
546
00:18:00,547 --> 00:18:01,581
Time.
547
00:18:09,922 --> 00:18:11,658
Lou?
548
00:18:11,724 --> 00:18:13,226
Okay.
549
00:18:13,293 --> 00:18:15,395
That was good.
550
00:18:15,462 --> 00:18:17,430
You spent, perhaps,
a little more time
551
00:18:17,497 --> 00:18:19,799
laying out the other side's
position, rather than your own.
552
00:18:19,866 --> 00:18:21,100
I felt that.
Yeah?
553
00:18:21,168 --> 00:18:22,535
Good.
554
00:18:22,602 --> 00:18:25,672
And the language was
a bit dense.
555
00:18:25,738 --> 00:18:26,806
Dense?
556
00:18:26,873 --> 00:18:28,040
Help me out here.
557
00:18:28,107 --> 00:18:29,409
Dense is good.
558
00:18:29,476 --> 00:18:31,378
Could be more plainspoken.
That's it.
559
00:18:31,444 --> 00:18:32,945
LOU:
Plainspoken, exactly.
560
00:18:33,012 --> 00:18:34,814
JOSH:
Plainspoken.
561
00:18:34,881 --> 00:18:36,449
( reporters clamoring )
WILL:
Yes, Steve.
562
00:18:36,516 --> 00:18:38,785
Do you have an update
on the situation in Kazakhstan?
563
00:18:38,851 --> 00:18:40,620
Things seem to be
in a holding pattern.
564
00:18:40,687 --> 00:18:43,256
"Seem to be"?
565
00:18:43,323 --> 00:18:44,724
Has a deal
been reached
566
00:18:44,791 --> 00:18:47,126
to keep the Chinese
and Russian troops from crossing
567
00:18:47,194 --> 00:18:49,429
their respective borders?
Not that I'm aware of
at this time.
568
00:18:49,496 --> 00:18:51,398
Is one currently
being negotiated?
569
00:18:51,464 --> 00:18:52,699
Couldn't say.
570
00:18:52,765 --> 00:18:54,534
But you could say?
I'm sorry,
571
00:18:54,601 --> 00:18:55,968
I should have said
I have no knowledge
572
00:18:56,035 --> 00:18:58,571
of whether an agreement
is being discussed or not.
573
00:18:58,638 --> 00:19:00,473
Are you just obfuscating here?
574
00:19:00,540 --> 00:19:03,310
Luckily for all of you,
if perhaps not so much
575
00:19:03,376 --> 00:19:05,312
for the Administration,
should it ever come to that,
576
00:19:05,378 --> 00:19:07,247
I couldn't possibly pull it off
this convincingly.
577
00:19:07,314 --> 00:19:08,515
STEVE:
If it turns out
578
00:19:08,581 --> 00:19:10,149
we're on the brink
of World War III,
579
00:19:10,217 --> 00:19:11,684
this won't seem quite
so amusing.
580
00:19:11,751 --> 00:19:13,753
In that horrible event,
one might assume
581
00:19:13,820 --> 00:19:15,555
we'd all have
more pressing concerns.
582
00:19:15,622 --> 00:19:16,789
( reporters clamoring)
Mark.
583
00:19:17,924 --> 00:19:19,359
There you are.
584
00:19:19,426 --> 00:19:21,261
We finally finished revising
those stimulus numbers
585
00:19:21,328 --> 00:19:22,595
based upon
that latest C.B.O. package.
586
00:19:22,662 --> 00:19:24,397
That what you guys
have been doing?
587
00:19:24,464 --> 00:19:26,733
Every time I walked by
there, all I heard
was people laughing.
588
00:19:26,799 --> 00:19:28,301
Well, we enjoy
each other's company.
589
00:19:28,368 --> 00:19:31,571
Yeah, evidently.
590
00:19:31,638 --> 00:19:32,939
There a problem?
591
00:19:33,005 --> 00:19:34,874
It's just that when you said
you were coming home
592
00:19:34,941 --> 00:19:36,909
to spend time with the kids,
I just got the idea that perhaps
593
00:19:36,976 --> 00:19:38,678
you were going to spend time
with the kids.
594
00:19:38,745 --> 00:19:40,179
I played with them
this morning.
595
00:19:40,247 --> 00:19:41,948
Practically handling them
with tongs.
596
00:19:42,014 --> 00:19:43,883
( chuckles )
I didn't want to get
in their faces.
597
00:19:43,950 --> 00:19:45,618
They're sick.
They have head colds.
598
00:19:45,685 --> 00:19:47,720
It's unlikely you'll start
bleeding from the eyes.
599
00:19:47,787 --> 00:19:49,622
I'm in the middle of a
presidential campaign.
600
00:19:49,689 --> 00:19:51,224
That's where
you've been nights.
601
00:19:51,291 --> 00:19:54,961
I know it's been rough.
602
00:19:55,027 --> 00:19:56,796
Kids being issued
panic buttons
603
00:19:56,863 --> 00:20:00,066
and the house transformed
into an armed camp?
604
00:20:00,132 --> 00:20:02,502
Bit of an exaggeration.
605
00:20:02,569 --> 00:20:06,306
The windows in here
look any different?
606
00:20:06,373 --> 00:20:09,609
No, not really.
607
00:20:09,676 --> 00:20:11,177
Yeah.
608
00:20:11,244 --> 00:20:13,513
It's amazing the natural
look they can achieve now
609
00:20:13,580 --> 00:20:15,748
with bulletproof glass.
610
00:20:15,815 --> 00:20:17,584
Labor Day, the barbecue?
611
00:20:17,650 --> 00:20:19,352
I had to provide
the Secret Service
612
00:20:19,419 --> 00:20:21,754
with everybody's names, social
security numbers, birth dates.
613
00:20:21,821 --> 00:20:23,790
To come by and have a hotdog,
everyone had to be issued
614
00:20:23,856 --> 00:20:24,791
ID pins.
615
00:20:24,857 --> 00:20:26,559
My mother walking
around tagged
616
00:20:26,626 --> 00:20:29,329
like she was some
threatening wacko.
617
00:20:29,396 --> 00:20:30,697
If you're considering
this an opportunity
618
00:20:30,763 --> 00:20:32,198
to crack a
mother-in-law joke,
619
00:20:32,265 --> 00:20:33,966
you are seriously
misjudging
620
00:20:34,033 --> 00:20:36,869
the mood of your audience.
621
00:20:51,017 --> 00:20:53,152
I had a real
good one, too.
( laughs )
622
00:20:53,219 --> 00:20:55,254
Yeah, what?
623
00:20:55,322 --> 00:20:58,458
Too late.
624
00:20:58,525 --> 00:21:04,764
I'm sorry.
625
00:21:04,831 --> 00:21:06,499
Tomorrow will
be better.
626
00:21:06,566 --> 00:21:10,970
( laughs )
Yeah.
627
00:21:11,037 --> 00:21:13,406
Hey, think about the neat
place we get to live in
628
00:21:13,473 --> 00:21:17,209
once we win this thing.
629
00:21:17,276 --> 00:21:18,511
My throat's
really hurting.
630
00:21:18,578 --> 00:21:20,279
HELEN:
Oh, sweetie.
631
00:21:20,347 --> 00:21:22,148
Come here, honey.
I'll handle it.
632
00:21:22,214 --> 00:21:23,450
What's wrong, angel?
633
00:21:23,516 --> 00:21:25,352
I want Mommy.
Okay.
634
00:21:25,418 --> 00:21:27,119
I'm here, baby.
635
00:21:27,186 --> 00:21:29,589
Yeah, you're a little warm.
636
00:21:29,656 --> 00:21:31,257
Let's go take
your temperature, okay?
637
00:21:31,324 --> 00:21:32,925
Okay.
Okay, honey.
638
00:21:32,992 --> 00:21:34,627
Come here.
639
00:21:48,341 --> 00:21:50,777
as one who could be called upon
to assume the presidency,
640
00:21:50,843 --> 00:21:52,545
what's your response to voters
641
00:21:52,612 --> 00:21:54,213
concerned about
your medical history?
642
00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:56,783
I say the House Speaker
shouldn't skip any checkups.
643
00:21:56,849 --> 00:21:58,918
He can't be flippant about this.
644
00:21:58,985 --> 00:22:00,453
I thought it was funny.
645
00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:01,388
Defusing.
Sullivan will jump
all over it.
646
00:22:01,454 --> 00:22:02,889
LOU:
Do an aria about
647
00:22:02,955 --> 00:22:04,524
the awesome, sacred
responsibility of succession.
648
00:22:04,591 --> 00:22:05,825
And he'll look like an idiot.
649
00:22:05,892 --> 00:22:07,494
And Leo will sound
like he could care less.
650
00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:09,929
How can we help him
if we can't even agree?
651
00:22:09,996 --> 00:22:11,664
He never figured out
we were taping?
652
00:22:11,731 --> 00:22:12,732
ANNABETH:
Nope.
Nice job.
653
00:22:12,799 --> 00:22:14,601
JOSH:
Lipstick cameras.
654
00:22:14,667 --> 00:22:16,335
You use these at home
for your personal pleasure?
655
00:22:16,403 --> 00:22:17,937
Wouldn't you like to know.
656
00:22:18,004 --> 00:22:18,871
Not really, no.
657
00:22:18,938 --> 00:22:19,872
Should we cancel?
658
00:22:19,939 --> 00:22:20,673
The debate?
659
00:22:20,740 --> 00:22:22,475
It's the right question.
660
00:22:22,542 --> 00:22:23,943
It'd just nakedly be saying
we were worried
661
00:22:24,010 --> 00:22:24,977
about him looking bad.
662
00:22:25,044 --> 00:22:26,045
Better than moving forward
663
00:22:26,112 --> 00:22:27,213
and him, in fact, looking bad.
664
00:22:27,279 --> 00:22:29,048
We don't cancel,
we keep working,
665
00:22:29,115 --> 00:22:30,650
do another practice session
tomorrow.
666
00:22:30,717 --> 00:22:31,518
Tomorrow is the debate.
667
00:22:31,584 --> 00:22:33,119
Is it? Really?
668
00:22:33,185 --> 00:22:34,721
Gee, slipped my mind.
669
00:22:34,787 --> 00:22:37,690
Okay, guys, thank you.
You can go.
670
00:22:44,030 --> 00:22:46,766
He'll be fine.
671
00:22:46,833 --> 00:22:48,401
Acceptable.
672
00:22:48,468 --> 00:22:50,770
I'll take anything
over train wreck.
673
00:22:53,172 --> 00:22:55,408
( phone ringing )
674
00:22:57,877 --> 00:22:59,412
( sighs )
675
00:22:59,479 --> 00:23:00,580
Yeah.
676
00:23:00,647 --> 00:23:01,948
SANTOS:
Hey.
677
00:23:02,014 --> 00:23:03,450
Congressman,
how'd the event go?
678
00:23:03,516 --> 00:23:04,551
Asking people
who've already given
679
00:23:04,617 --> 00:23:06,152
money to give more money?
680
00:23:06,218 --> 00:23:07,487
You got to be shameless.
681
00:23:07,554 --> 00:23:09,188
It's shameful
how shameless you get.
682
00:23:09,255 --> 00:23:10,389
What are you up to?
683
00:23:10,457 --> 00:23:11,591
Cramming.
684
00:23:11,658 --> 00:23:12,892
I know the feeling.
685
00:23:12,959 --> 00:23:14,260
Karmic retribution
686
00:23:14,326 --> 00:23:18,197
for every candidate I ever
glibly told, "Just work harder."
687
00:23:18,264 --> 00:23:20,199
You saw the blog report.
688
00:23:20,266 --> 00:23:21,634
Don't let that worry you, Leo.
689
00:23:21,701 --> 00:23:24,737
Every time you and I argue
policy, you kick my ass.
690
00:23:24,804 --> 00:23:25,938
Hardly.
691
00:23:26,005 --> 00:23:27,039
Piece of advice?
692
00:23:27,106 --> 00:23:28,240
Please.
693
00:23:28,307 --> 00:23:29,642
Don't let all those advisors
mess you up.
694
00:23:29,709 --> 00:23:31,377
All of that well-intentioned
counsel
695
00:23:31,444 --> 00:23:34,280
can get you so self-conscious,
696
00:23:34,346 --> 00:23:35,948
Trust your instincts.
697
00:23:36,015 --> 00:23:37,484
You have a practice session
tomorrow?
698
00:23:37,550 --> 00:23:38,751
Yeah.
699
00:23:38,818 --> 00:23:40,119
Blow it off.
Go to the movies.
700
00:23:40,186 --> 00:23:42,288
Get everybody out of your head.
701
00:23:42,354 --> 00:23:43,990
How's the homecoming?
702
00:23:44,056 --> 00:23:45,625
Great.
703
00:23:45,692 --> 00:23:47,594
A little reentry problem?
704
00:23:47,660 --> 00:23:48,828
A little bit.
705
00:23:48,895 --> 00:23:50,129
She right there?
706
00:23:50,196 --> 00:23:51,430
Home with the kids.
707
00:23:51,498 --> 00:23:52,632
Miranda's got a fever.
708
00:23:52,699 --> 00:23:54,867
You two will be all right.
709
00:23:54,934 --> 00:23:58,204
My best advice--
don't get on a plane angry.
710
00:23:58,270 --> 00:24:00,139
Says the divorced guy.
711
00:24:00,206 --> 00:24:02,174
That make the advice better
or worse?
712
00:24:02,241 --> 00:24:03,510
No idea.
713
00:24:03,576 --> 00:24:05,578
( laughs ):
Get some rest, huh?
714
00:24:05,645 --> 00:24:06,913
Thanks for calling.
715
00:24:06,979 --> 00:24:08,715
Good luck.
716
00:24:12,952 --> 00:24:14,954
( sighs )
717
00:24:22,629 --> 00:24:24,597
What are you doing here
on a Sunday?
718
00:24:24,664 --> 00:24:26,398
No life.
You? Wait.
719
00:24:26,465 --> 00:24:28,300
Let me guess.
You can't tell me.
720
00:24:28,367 --> 00:24:29,502
You're getting good at this.
721
00:24:29,569 --> 00:24:30,670
Coffee?
Uh-uh.
722
00:24:30,737 --> 00:24:31,538
You know it
occurs to me,
723
00:24:31,604 --> 00:24:33,005
if you ever used--
724
00:24:33,072 --> 00:24:34,774
and the fact that
you haven't earns you
725
00:24:34,841 --> 00:24:36,442
major cliche-avoidance points--
the old
726
00:24:36,509 --> 00:24:39,178
"I could tell you, but then
I'd have to kill you" trope,
727
00:24:39,245 --> 00:24:41,213
that, given your background,
you probably actually could.
728
00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:42,749
With my bare hands.
729
00:24:42,815 --> 00:24:44,617
Again, alarmingly alluring.
730
00:24:44,684 --> 00:24:47,520
You do have issues
to work on.
731
00:24:47,587 --> 00:24:48,755
Which I tend to find
732
00:24:48,821 --> 00:24:51,123
compelling to my
continual misery.
733
00:24:51,190 --> 00:24:52,391
Really?
734
00:24:52,458 --> 00:24:53,860
Dismayingly so.
735
00:24:53,926 --> 00:24:55,127
Anyway,
736
00:24:55,194 --> 00:24:56,963
I just came by to say
that I thought, given all,
737
00:24:57,029 --> 00:24:59,398
you acquitted yourself well
at yesterday's briefing.
738
00:24:59,465 --> 00:25:01,000
Apocalypse Maybe.
Nimbly done.
739
00:25:01,067 --> 00:25:02,869
Don't change the subject.
From?
740
00:25:02,935 --> 00:25:05,104
The end of the world
as we know it.
741
00:25:05,171 --> 00:25:07,206
I can assure you,
742
00:25:07,273 --> 00:25:10,176
Armageddon--
not necessarily imminent.
743
00:25:10,242 --> 00:25:12,679
May I communicate same
to the White House press?
744
00:25:12,745 --> 00:25:14,046
I can't think why not.
745
00:25:14,113 --> 00:25:15,014
You have the thanks
746
00:25:15,081 --> 00:25:17,316
of a grateful
Communications Director.
747
00:25:17,383 --> 00:25:20,519
Though the prospect of the world
ending did have one upside.
748
00:25:20,587 --> 00:25:22,121
Figured it gave license
to ask whether
749
00:25:22,188 --> 00:25:23,656
you might want
to have dinner with me
750
00:25:23,723 --> 00:25:26,559
before we and the planet went up
in cinders.
751
00:25:26,626 --> 00:25:27,894
Oh.
752
00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:30,229
Well, that is
an opportunity lost.
753
00:25:30,296 --> 00:25:32,765
Though, I said
it wasn't imminent,
754
00:25:32,832 --> 00:25:35,234
not that it was out of the range
of possibility.
755
00:25:35,301 --> 00:25:36,168
So, then...?
756
00:25:36,235 --> 00:25:37,704
How's tonight?
757
00:25:49,248 --> 00:25:50,983
It's all over the press
758
00:25:51,050 --> 00:25:52,484
that Leo had another
bad debate practice.
759
00:25:52,551 --> 00:25:53,853
Somebody's leaking.
760
00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:55,121
You can't seriously think
it's one of us.
761
00:25:55,187 --> 00:25:56,555
You told a friend.
762
00:25:56,623 --> 00:25:58,791
They told a friend, the friend
told The Washington Post.
763
00:25:58,858 --> 00:26:00,793
I haven't spoken
to a friend in two months.
764
00:26:00,860 --> 00:26:02,094
I don't think I have
any friends left.
765
00:26:02,161 --> 00:26:03,195
All my friends
766
00:26:03,262 --> 00:26:04,664
are in this room.
Okay, you win most pathetic.
767
00:26:04,731 --> 00:26:07,233
Yeah.
( knock at door )
768
00:26:07,299 --> 00:26:08,534
Am I interrupting?
769
00:26:08,601 --> 00:26:10,903
Hey. No, no.
Not at all.
770
00:26:10,970 --> 00:26:14,641
I'm canceling today's
debate prep.
771
00:26:14,707 --> 00:26:16,442
I'm not sure
that's the best plan.
772
00:26:16,508 --> 00:26:17,644
Too many voices.
773
00:26:17,710 --> 00:26:19,378
Need to clear my head
a little bit.
774
00:26:19,445 --> 00:26:20,780
We could just make it
Josh and me.
775
00:26:20,847 --> 00:26:23,349
Or just Lou,
or-or me.
776
00:26:23,415 --> 00:26:24,784
Think I'll do better on my own.
777
00:26:24,851 --> 00:26:26,218
Short session?
778
00:26:26,285 --> 00:26:27,654
Don't want to leave it
in the locker room.
779
00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:28,688
Right.
780
00:26:28,755 --> 00:26:30,056
See you all tonight.
781
00:26:30,122 --> 00:26:31,123
Okay.
ANNABETH:
See you in a bit.
782
00:26:31,190 --> 00:26:33,192
Bye.
783
00:26:34,761 --> 00:26:36,929
( door closes )
784
00:26:43,069 --> 00:26:44,937
Okay, forget what I was saying.
785
00:26:45,004 --> 00:26:47,139
I want you to get out there
and lower expectations now.
786
00:26:47,206 --> 00:26:48,574
Beyond what's
already out there?
787
00:26:48,641 --> 00:26:49,575
Lower than low.
Go for low.
788
00:26:49,642 --> 00:26:51,143
Hades low.
789
00:26:51,210 --> 00:26:53,312
Spinning iron core
of the planet low.
790
00:26:53,379 --> 00:26:55,715
Low.
791
00:26:57,950 --> 00:26:59,385
Yeah, between the, uh,
security sweep,
792
00:26:59,451 --> 00:27:02,054
the metal detectors,
and the, uh, perimeter detail,
793
00:27:02,121 --> 00:27:04,523
that was about the safest mass
performed in America today.
794
00:27:04,590 --> 00:27:05,925
( laughs )
795
00:27:05,992 --> 00:27:07,226
( Santos and Helen laughing )
796
00:27:07,293 --> 00:27:08,394
What's so funny?
797
00:27:08,460 --> 00:27:09,628
Yeah, what's
so funny?
798
00:27:09,696 --> 00:27:11,630
Uh, kind of
everything.
799
00:27:11,698 --> 00:27:13,099
( laughter )
800
00:27:13,165 --> 00:27:14,633
Did Teddy's father
get his gun back?
801
00:27:14,701 --> 00:27:17,036
( laughter )
I don't know, Pete.
802
00:27:17,103 --> 00:27:18,270
You're gonna have
to ask him.
803
00:27:18,337 --> 00:27:19,305
What?
804
00:27:19,371 --> 00:27:21,073
All right, kids,
get changed.
805
00:27:21,140 --> 00:27:23,009
Sorry. You guys had them
all day yesterday.
806
00:27:23,075 --> 00:27:24,510
It's the Sabbath--
day of rest.
807
00:27:24,576 --> 00:27:26,713
There's something both of you
are gonna want to see.
808
00:27:26,779 --> 00:27:28,214
What is it?
809
00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:30,149
Uh, photos hit the papers
you're not gonna like.
810
00:27:30,216 --> 00:27:31,450
I've probably
looked worse.
811
00:27:31,517 --> 00:27:32,418
( laughs )
812
00:27:32,484 --> 00:27:34,086
It's not of you.
813
00:27:49,668 --> 00:27:50,970
Think they planted it?
814
00:27:51,037 --> 00:27:53,405
Distract
from the debate tonight?
815
00:27:53,472 --> 00:27:55,107
Only a man would ask that.
816
00:27:55,174 --> 00:27:56,375
Beg your pardon.
817
00:27:56,442 --> 00:27:57,643
Sorry, you're right.
818
00:27:57,710 --> 00:27:58,945
Only you.
819
00:27:59,011 --> 00:28:01,113
It's all over
the Internet.
820
00:28:01,180 --> 00:28:02,681
What are we doing
about Illinois?
821
00:28:02,749 --> 00:28:04,683
Not panicking.
822
00:28:04,751 --> 00:28:05,818
Four points up
is still up.
823
00:28:05,885 --> 00:28:07,253
SHEILA:
Senator to Chicago
824
00:28:07,319 --> 00:28:08,220
and the suburbs.
825
00:28:08,287 --> 00:28:09,388
I go downstate.
826
00:28:09,455 --> 00:28:11,523
Santos ain't
playin' in Peoria.
827
00:28:11,590 --> 00:28:13,492
They're talking
about canceling.
828
00:28:13,559 --> 00:28:15,127
Who?
Santos-McGarry.
829
00:28:15,194 --> 00:28:16,863
I hear they're in
panic mode over there.
830
00:28:16,929 --> 00:28:18,397
That's why you leak
the Helen photo.
831
00:28:18,464 --> 00:28:19,665
Will you stop?
832
00:28:19,732 --> 00:28:21,000
They set the bar so low,
the only way
833
00:28:21,067 --> 00:28:22,534
McGarry can look bad is
if he trips over it.
834
00:28:22,601 --> 00:28:24,370
You go out and do your thing.
835
00:28:24,436 --> 00:28:27,006
Just watch out it doesn't look
like you're kicking a cripple.
836
00:28:27,073 --> 00:28:29,341
And we let this man talk
to reporters.
837
00:28:29,408 --> 00:28:30,409
What?
838
00:28:31,944 --> 00:28:34,013
SANTOS:
This is out of bounds!
839
00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:35,748
I want you to contact
every media outlet
840
00:28:35,815 --> 00:28:37,984
and let them know
that anyone using
this will no longer
841
00:28:38,050 --> 00:28:40,052
receive cooperation
from this campaign.
842
00:28:45,557 --> 00:28:46,658
Honey, I'm sorry
about this.
843
00:28:46,725 --> 00:28:48,660
I...
844
00:28:48,727 --> 00:28:51,798
I guess this is speechless.
845
00:28:51,864 --> 00:28:54,533
It-It's trash journalism.
846
00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:55,835
The lowest kind
of tabloid stuff.
847
00:28:55,902 --> 00:28:57,136
This'll backfire.
848
00:28:57,203 --> 00:28:58,938
They'll only sell out
every copy.
849
00:28:59,005 --> 00:29:01,707
I'm so sorry, Mrs. Santos.
850
00:29:01,774 --> 00:29:03,943
I can understand
how you must feel.
851
00:29:04,010 --> 00:29:05,244
Can you? What kind of underwear
852
00:29:05,311 --> 00:29:06,813
are you wearing
right now, Donna?
853
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:10,049
Ah.
854
00:29:12,751 --> 00:29:14,686
Put me on the phone
with this publisher.
855
00:29:14,753 --> 00:29:16,789
I'm not sure
that's the best...
Put me on the phone with him
856
00:29:16,856 --> 00:29:19,391
right now.
857
00:29:22,761 --> 00:29:25,197
Hey. Is this a bad time?
858
00:29:25,264 --> 00:29:28,200
No. You caught me
in between arraignments.
859
00:29:28,267 --> 00:29:29,701
Surprised you haven't changed
your cell number.
860
00:29:29,768 --> 00:29:31,203
You disappointed
to actually get me?
861
00:29:31,270 --> 00:29:32,238
No. I...
862
00:29:32,304 --> 00:29:33,840
Somebody dead?
863
00:29:33,906 --> 00:29:35,541
I've talked to you.
864
00:29:35,607 --> 00:29:36,775
Once every six weeks.
865
00:29:36,843 --> 00:29:38,845
You can set an extremely slow
clock by it.
866
00:29:38,911 --> 00:29:40,146
I didn't think you wanted
to hear from me.
867
00:29:40,212 --> 00:29:41,347
Because I-I don't feel
868
00:29:41,413 --> 00:29:42,648
cut off enough?
869
00:29:42,714 --> 00:29:44,350
All right, I-I wasn't sure
I wanted to talk to you.
870
00:29:44,416 --> 00:29:46,919
Last time you were more
than usually assholic.
871
00:29:46,986 --> 00:29:48,220
( laughs )
872
00:29:48,287 --> 00:29:49,822
Is-Is that the reason
you're calling?
873
00:29:49,889 --> 00:29:52,591
Because I'm not sure
I'm in the ideal head space
874
00:29:52,658 --> 00:29:55,727
for a character critique.
875
00:29:55,794 --> 00:29:57,763
Have you seen the stuff
about Leo?
876
00:29:57,830 --> 00:29:59,365
Lowering expectations.
877
00:29:59,431 --> 00:30:00,732
It's not us.
878
00:30:00,799 --> 00:30:02,668
Really? You mean,
he actually...?
879
00:30:02,734 --> 00:30:05,671
Yeah.
880
00:30:05,737 --> 00:30:06,939
News for a day.
881
00:30:07,006 --> 00:30:08,507
Not even,
with this tattoo thing.
882
00:30:08,574 --> 00:30:09,842
That was you, right?
883
00:30:09,909 --> 00:30:11,243
No.
TOBY:
Huh.
884
00:30:11,310 --> 00:30:13,312
Really on top
of the information flow, huh?
885
00:30:13,379 --> 00:30:15,047
I think we can do
without your usual disparagement
886
00:30:15,114 --> 00:30:18,117
of my job performance.
887
00:30:18,184 --> 00:30:20,887
I just feel like
I really screwed up.
888
00:30:20,953 --> 00:30:22,721
It's the V.P. debate.
889
00:30:22,788 --> 00:30:24,190
The very definition
of low impact.
890
00:30:24,256 --> 00:30:26,025
Well, the campaign'll survive.
891
00:30:26,092 --> 00:30:27,693
It's-It's... It's Leo.
892
00:30:27,759 --> 00:30:28,794
He'll survive, too.
893
00:30:28,861 --> 00:30:30,362
I put him in this position.
894
00:30:30,429 --> 00:30:32,664
If he goes out and embarrasses
himself, it's my fault.
895
00:30:32,731 --> 00:30:33,900
He's a big boy, Josh.
896
00:30:33,966 --> 00:30:35,401
He did this for me, and now...
897
00:30:35,467 --> 00:30:37,103
Now I've put him
in this position
898
00:30:37,169 --> 00:30:39,105
where he can fail
on national TV.
899
00:30:39,171 --> 00:30:40,272
I'm sorry. He did this for you?
900
00:30:40,339 --> 00:30:41,807
Well, you know what I mean.
901
00:30:41,874 --> 00:30:44,076
Leo McGarry did not accept
his party's nomination
902
00:30:44,143 --> 00:30:46,145
for the Vice Presidency
of the United States
903
00:30:46,212 --> 00:30:48,014
because he thought
it might make your socks
904
00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:49,648
roll up and down.
905
00:30:49,715 --> 00:30:51,583
I just hate
to see him struggle like this.
906
00:30:51,650 --> 00:30:53,185
It's not what he deserves.
907
00:30:53,252 --> 00:30:55,587
I-I can't help it
if it sounds self-aggrandizing.
908
00:30:55,654 --> 00:30:57,489
I feel responsible.
909
00:30:57,556 --> 00:30:59,691
He's really that bad?
910
00:30:59,758 --> 00:31:01,027
Watch tonight.
911
00:31:01,093 --> 00:31:02,929
Actually, don't watch.
912
00:31:02,995 --> 00:31:04,496
( sighs )
913
00:31:04,563 --> 00:31:06,598
This must all sound
pretty trivial.
914
00:31:06,665 --> 00:31:08,200
You mean to someone
under indictment?
915
00:31:08,267 --> 00:31:10,069
It does concentrate the mind
just a little.
916
00:31:10,136 --> 00:31:11,237
How's that going?
917
00:31:11,303 --> 00:31:12,538
Can't talk about it.
918
00:31:12,604 --> 00:31:13,605
Too tough?
919
00:31:13,672 --> 00:31:14,740
Legally proscribed.
920
00:31:14,806 --> 00:31:16,008
Right.
921
00:31:16,075 --> 00:31:18,277
Give yourself a pass
on this, Josh.
922
00:31:18,344 --> 00:31:19,946
( sighs ):
Yeah.
923
00:31:20,012 --> 00:31:21,447
I'll talk to you
924
00:31:21,513 --> 00:31:22,614
in six weeks.
925
00:31:22,681 --> 00:31:23,983
Election day.
JOSH:
I forget.
926
00:31:24,050 --> 00:31:26,152
In D.C.,
they-they let felons vote?
927
00:31:28,787 --> 00:31:30,622
Too soon?
928
00:31:30,689 --> 00:31:32,458
Just a little bit.
929
00:31:32,524 --> 00:31:34,093
See you.
930
00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:37,429
( sighs )
931
00:31:44,303 --> 00:31:45,604
You okay?
932
00:31:45,671 --> 00:31:47,806
"Okay" may be a bit
much to hope for.
933
00:31:47,873 --> 00:31:48,975
I'm sorry about all this.
934
00:31:49,041 --> 00:31:50,342
It's not your fault.
935
00:31:50,409 --> 00:31:51,143
In a way.
936
00:31:51,210 --> 00:31:54,080
What are you gonna do?
937
00:31:54,146 --> 00:31:56,949
That shouldn't be a
part of all of this.
938
00:31:57,016 --> 00:31:59,185
Everything is a part of this.
939
00:31:59,251 --> 00:32:01,954
If you don't see that,
you're not paying attention.
940
00:32:02,021 --> 00:32:03,889
No pizza delivery on the block
is a part of this.
941
00:32:03,956 --> 00:32:05,191
Mass starting an hour late
942
00:32:05,257 --> 00:32:06,692
so they could
mag wand the choir.
943
00:32:06,758 --> 00:32:07,926
The kids getting sick.
944
00:32:07,994 --> 00:32:09,695
The kids? How are they?
945
00:32:09,761 --> 00:32:10,862
Dragging them
across the country.
946
00:32:10,929 --> 00:32:12,064
Kids whose fathers aren't
947
00:32:12,131 --> 00:32:13,765
running for president get colds.
948
00:32:13,832 --> 00:32:15,634
Well, I'm not gonna
do it anymore.
949
00:32:15,701 --> 00:32:16,969
They enjoy it, Helen.
950
00:32:17,036 --> 00:32:19,371
Sitting in hotel rooms,
waiting for Daddy?
951
00:32:19,438 --> 00:32:21,573
Can we talk about this
when you're not so upset?
952
00:32:23,609 --> 00:32:25,077
You should change.
953
00:32:25,144 --> 00:32:27,146
You promised Peter
you'd throw the football around.
954
00:32:28,147 --> 00:32:30,149
( knock at door )
955
00:32:50,436 --> 00:32:52,571
Hey.
956
00:32:52,638 --> 00:32:54,773
You all set for tonight?
957
00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:57,076
I'd better be.
958
00:32:57,143 --> 00:32:59,511
Got a suit picked out?
959
00:32:59,578 --> 00:33:01,313
Tie?
960
00:33:01,380 --> 00:33:02,714
You here to approve
my wardrobe?
961
00:33:02,781 --> 00:33:03,915
No, I'm not.
962
00:33:03,982 --> 00:33:04,983
I'm not worried about that.
963
00:33:05,051 --> 00:33:06,952
I'm not worried at all.
964
00:33:07,019 --> 00:33:08,520
Thanks for saying it, at least.
965
00:33:08,587 --> 00:33:10,356
Listen.
966
00:33:10,422 --> 00:33:12,458
We should move
Rock the Vote up.
967
00:33:12,524 --> 00:33:15,127
That's gonna give Santos
his boxers or briefs moment.
968
00:33:15,194 --> 00:33:17,663
Helen should do it with him.
969
00:33:17,729 --> 00:33:18,730
She won't do it.
970
00:33:18,797 --> 00:33:19,731
He's pretty pissed.
971
00:33:19,798 --> 00:33:20,866
We make lemonade.
972
00:33:20,932 --> 00:33:22,101
We put them both on.
973
00:33:22,168 --> 00:33:24,470
Youthful, attractive...
974
00:33:24,536 --> 00:33:25,837
Camelot for
the 21st century.
975
00:33:25,904 --> 00:33:26,972
We turn that
vote out, we win.
976
00:33:27,039 --> 00:33:28,640
They never come out.
977
00:33:28,707 --> 00:33:30,709
They haven't had anyone like him
to vote for since Kennedy.
978
00:33:30,776 --> 00:33:32,244
I'll get on it.
979
00:33:32,311 --> 00:33:35,781
There's still time
to go over stuff for tonight.
980
00:33:35,847 --> 00:33:36,915
I'm good.
981
00:33:36,982 --> 00:33:39,251
Last minute review?
982
00:33:39,318 --> 00:33:42,621
I'd rather take
it easy, rest up.
983
00:33:49,361 --> 00:33:51,797
It's gonna be good.
984
00:33:51,863 --> 00:33:54,100
It's gonna be what it is.
985
00:33:58,170 --> 00:34:00,806
Okay, well...
986
00:34:00,872 --> 00:34:02,408
Thanks for coming by.
987
00:34:02,474 --> 00:34:05,211
Yeah, I'll see you there.
988
00:34:08,147 --> 00:34:10,349
( door closes )
989
00:34:12,384 --> 00:34:14,220
SANTOS:
Oh, Leo's gonna be better
than people think.
990
00:34:14,286 --> 00:34:16,222
But you know, it's the message,
not the messenger.
991
00:34:16,288 --> 00:34:17,689
Do you have any twos?
992
00:34:17,756 --> 00:34:19,325
( whispers ):
Go fish.
993
00:34:19,391 --> 00:34:21,960
No, we're gonna score tonight,
because what we've got to say
994
00:34:22,027 --> 00:34:24,763
about this country is
forward-looking and inclusive.
995
00:34:24,830 --> 00:34:26,098
Dad...
996
00:34:26,165 --> 00:34:28,300
I have every confidence
997
00:34:28,367 --> 00:34:30,802
that when Leo McGarry
challenges Ray Sullivan
998
00:34:30,869 --> 00:34:32,504
on the issues, he's gonna show
999
00:34:32,571 --> 00:34:35,207
that the Vinick campaign's
so-called sensible solutions
1000
00:34:35,274 --> 00:34:38,410
are neither sensible
nor solutions.
1001
00:34:40,412 --> 00:34:42,881
Sorry for the
mix-up, Mr. Santos.
1002
00:34:42,948 --> 00:34:45,184
Produce I.D.,
pass through a metal detector,
1003
00:34:45,251 --> 00:34:47,018
enter my own brother's house.
1004
00:34:47,085 --> 00:34:48,654
We were told you
were out of town.
1005
00:34:48,720 --> 00:34:50,021
That's why you weren't on
the pre-clearance list.
1006
00:34:50,088 --> 00:34:51,690
Plus, they got my name wrong.
1007
00:34:51,757 --> 00:34:52,724
It's Jorge.
1008
00:34:52,791 --> 00:34:54,160
It's not George.
1009
00:34:54,226 --> 00:34:56,061
They just went with
what's on your driver's license.
1010
00:34:56,128 --> 00:34:57,129
Getting it changed.
1011
00:34:57,196 --> 00:34:58,530
Hey. You made it
after all, huh?
1012
00:34:58,597 --> 00:34:59,798
Hey.
1013
00:34:59,865 --> 00:35:02,067
What? I thought I was
gonna get cavity searched.
1014
00:35:02,134 --> 00:35:03,269
( chuckles )
1015
00:35:03,335 --> 00:35:04,470
BRAM:
He wasn't on the list.
1016
00:35:04,536 --> 00:35:05,437
Standard operating
procedure now.
1017
00:35:05,504 --> 00:35:07,439
You can make it up to me.
1018
00:35:07,506 --> 00:35:09,841
Listen, I invited over a
couple business associates
1019
00:35:09,908 --> 00:35:11,343
for drinks and a photo.
1020
00:35:11,410 --> 00:35:13,145
Think we can get them
past your storm troopers?
1021
00:35:16,114 --> 00:35:17,249
Sure.
1022
00:35:17,316 --> 00:35:18,517
I'll see what I can do.
1023
00:35:27,993 --> 00:35:30,662
Haven't had a chance to say
you have a lovely home.
1024
00:35:30,729 --> 00:35:32,798
It's even nicer when you
don't have shouting protesters
1025
00:35:32,864 --> 00:35:35,434
holding pictures of fetuses
just up the street.
1026
00:35:39,405 --> 00:35:41,907
I'm sorry for snapping
at you before.
1027
00:35:41,973 --> 00:35:44,142
Completely understandable.
1028
00:35:44,210 --> 00:35:45,877
Personal embarrassment aside...
1029
00:35:45,944 --> 00:35:47,679
( chuckles ):
Embarrassment is
when you nod off
1030
00:35:47,746 --> 00:35:49,581
at a PTA meeting.
1031
00:35:49,648 --> 00:35:52,284
When entire cable news segments
are devoted to debates about
1032
00:35:52,351 --> 00:35:53,752
whether you seem
kind of whore-y,
1033
00:35:53,819 --> 00:35:56,222
I think we've upgraded
to outright humiliation.
1034
00:35:56,288 --> 00:35:58,224
I was just gonna say, actually,
1035
00:35:58,290 --> 00:36:00,826
it probably helps
more than it hurts.
1036
00:36:00,892 --> 00:36:03,329
Makes you and the Congressman
seem sexy and hip.
1037
00:36:03,395 --> 00:36:06,432
Um... glad to be of service.
1038
00:36:09,067 --> 00:36:11,903
One of the reasons these
stories may get so much play
1039
00:36:11,970 --> 00:36:14,773
might be because it's all
the public knows about you.
1040
00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:16,375
You haven't really
defined yourself.
1041
00:36:16,442 --> 00:36:17,743
Well, I'm not running
for president.
1042
00:36:17,809 --> 00:36:18,844
With all due respect,
1043
00:36:18,910 --> 00:36:20,879
we both know
you're not that naive.
1044
00:36:20,946 --> 00:36:22,748
The option to be
left alone took a hit
1045
00:36:22,814 --> 00:36:24,250
when the Congressman
signed on to run
1046
00:36:24,316 --> 00:36:25,384
and pretty much got obliterated
1047
00:36:25,451 --> 00:36:26,885
once he gained the nomination.
1048
00:36:26,952 --> 00:36:30,456
It'll be a distant memory
when he wins this thing.
1049
00:36:30,522 --> 00:36:32,190
Might be time for you
to start talking about
1050
00:36:32,258 --> 00:36:34,092
the kind of First Lady
you want to be.
1051
00:36:34,159 --> 00:36:36,127
I'd like to help you with that
if you'd let me.
1052
00:36:36,194 --> 00:36:40,366
Can't tell you what kind of
First Lady I'd like to be.
1053
00:36:40,432 --> 00:36:44,303
Too busy deciding
if I want him to win.
1054
00:36:44,370 --> 00:36:45,737
Eye contact. Start
on the monitor.
1055
00:36:45,804 --> 00:36:47,473
Points youpunch,
straight to camera.
1056
00:36:47,539 --> 00:36:49,408
When Sullivan talks,
you look at him.
But don't stare.
1057
00:36:49,475 --> 00:36:50,876
Don't look bored.
Even when he's boring.
1058
00:36:50,942 --> 00:36:51,877
He'll be boring.
1059
00:36:51,943 --> 00:36:53,612
Hey, look at me.
1060
00:36:53,679 --> 00:36:54,546
Gorgeous.
1061
00:36:54,613 --> 00:36:55,714
Oh, get her away from me.
1062
00:36:55,781 --> 00:36:57,316
Man cannot take
a compliment.
1063
00:36:57,383 --> 00:36:58,650
They're ready for you.
Go get 'em.
1064
00:36:58,717 --> 00:36:59,851
Good luck.
1065
00:36:59,918 --> 00:37:01,119
Hey, McGarry.
1066
00:37:01,186 --> 00:37:02,220
( whispers ):
You're smirking.
1067
00:37:02,288 --> 00:37:03,955
Yeah.
1068
00:37:12,464 --> 00:37:13,665
( clears throat )
1069
00:37:19,871 --> 00:37:21,840
Good.
1070
00:37:21,907 --> 00:37:22,874
You.
Thank you.
1071
00:37:22,941 --> 00:37:23,942
Me.
1072
00:37:26,812 --> 00:37:30,015
A Carciofi salad,
shaved parmesan.
1073
00:37:30,081 --> 00:37:31,149
Little order envy.
1074
00:37:31,216 --> 00:37:32,017
Take it.
1075
00:37:32,083 --> 00:37:33,452
No.
1076
00:37:33,519 --> 00:37:34,886
One time, first date offer.
I'd seize it.
1077
00:37:34,953 --> 00:37:37,222
First?
1078
00:37:37,289 --> 00:37:38,557
Optimist.
1079
00:37:38,624 --> 00:37:42,394
Take-out dinner
in your office-- you must be.
1080
00:37:44,430 --> 00:37:45,764
Hey, it started.
1081
00:37:48,900 --> 00:37:51,970
MODERATOR:
Mr. McGarry, your response.
1082
00:37:52,037 --> 00:37:54,806
LEO:
Senator Vinick
and Governor Sullivan
1083
00:37:54,873 --> 00:37:57,843
oppose the Kyoto treaty
because they don't want
1084
00:37:57,909 --> 00:38:01,347
foreign governments dictating
our emissions standards.
1085
00:38:01,413 --> 00:38:04,282
They oppose
the International Criminal Court
1086
00:38:04,350 --> 00:38:05,984
because they don't want
a foreign body
1087
00:38:06,051 --> 00:38:08,487
to have legal jurisdiction
over U.S. citizens.
1088
00:38:08,554 --> 00:38:10,021
But they apparently
1089
00:38:10,088 --> 00:38:14,192
have no problem ceding
enormous, unprecedented leverage
1090
00:38:14,259 --> 00:38:18,063
over our economy
to bankers in China.
1091
00:38:18,129 --> 00:38:21,299
Our opponents evidently favor
sending even more
1092
00:38:21,367 --> 00:38:24,836
billions of U.S. dollars
China's way.
1093
00:38:24,903 --> 00:38:27,473
Matt Santos and I would
bring that money back
1094
00:38:27,539 --> 00:38:29,675
to our shores for our citizens,
1095
00:38:29,741 --> 00:38:33,545
and return control
of our economy back home,
1096
00:38:33,612 --> 00:38:34,913
where it belongs.
1097
00:38:39,117 --> 00:38:40,919
MODERATOR:
Mr. McGarry,
next question's for you.
1098
00:38:40,986 --> 00:38:44,089
Many Americans consider
the Vice President's role
1099
00:38:44,155 --> 00:38:45,624
in Presidential succession
1100
00:38:45,691 --> 00:38:46,992
to be the most important
responsibility...
1101
00:38:47,058 --> 00:38:49,395
Never said he was gonna
gibber like a gibbon.
1102
00:38:49,461 --> 00:38:51,029
...given your medical history,
1103
00:38:51,096 --> 00:38:55,667
why shouldn't voters
feel concern about you?
1104
00:38:55,734 --> 00:38:57,603
LEO:
By an overwhelming percentage,
1105
00:38:57,669 --> 00:39:01,407
the first warning symptom
of a heart attack is death.
1106
00:39:01,473 --> 00:39:03,409
I'm fortunate to be here.
1107
00:39:03,475 --> 00:39:05,343
But it wasn't all luck.
1108
00:39:05,411 --> 00:39:07,446
I was the beneficiary
1109
00:39:07,513 --> 00:39:10,616
of the finest medical care
in the world--
1110
00:39:10,682 --> 00:39:13,919
medical care available to me,
to Governor Sullivan,
1111
00:39:13,985 --> 00:39:16,422
but not to the millions
of Americans
1112
00:39:16,488 --> 00:39:19,090
with no or inadequate
health insurance.
1113
00:39:19,157 --> 00:39:22,093
They have their noses
pressed against the windows
1114
00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:24,563
of the world's
greatest hospitals,
1115
00:39:24,630 --> 00:39:27,699
best-trained doctors
and nursing professionals,
1116
00:39:27,766 --> 00:39:29,401
and when they most need--
1117
00:39:29,468 --> 00:39:33,439
most desperately need their
services, they can't get in.
1118
00:39:33,505 --> 00:39:38,109
Matt Santos and I don't want
to leave anyone out in the cold
1119
00:39:38,176 --> 00:39:40,078
if they get sick like I did.
1120
00:39:40,145 --> 00:39:41,613
I could kiss somebody.
1121
00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:44,049
We want every man, woman,
and child in this country
1122
00:39:44,115 --> 00:39:47,519
to have full and equal access
Or, you know, not.
1123
00:39:47,586 --> 00:39:49,788
to the first-class treatment
1124
00:39:49,855 --> 00:39:53,024
that I firmly believe
saved my life.
1125
00:39:53,091 --> 00:39:54,693
He didn't really
answer the question.
1126
00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:55,694
Doesn't matter.
1127
00:39:55,761 --> 00:39:56,928
Doesn't matter.
1128
00:39:56,995 --> 00:39:58,430
Damn straight!
1129
00:39:58,497 --> 00:39:59,765
You said a swear.
1130
00:40:03,569 --> 00:40:04,836
( applause ):
Thank you, thanks.
1131
00:40:04,903 --> 00:40:06,037
Thank you.
1132
00:40:06,104 --> 00:40:07,939
Hopefully, didn't
embarrass us too bad.
1133
00:40:08,006 --> 00:40:08,974
Are you kidding?
1134
00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:10,609
Josh and Lou
are in the spin room.
1135
00:40:10,676 --> 00:40:12,277
You gave them
a lot to work with.
1136
00:40:12,343 --> 00:40:13,945
Thanks for the help, everyone.
1137
00:40:14,012 --> 00:40:15,647
Are you coming next door
for a drink?
1138
00:40:15,714 --> 00:40:18,416
Soon as I scrape
the makeup off.
1139
00:40:18,484 --> 00:40:19,551
Son of a bitch.
1140
00:40:19,618 --> 00:40:20,552
Very nice.
1141
00:40:20,619 --> 00:40:21,887
You sandbagged.
1142
00:40:21,953 --> 00:40:23,522
Get a head start
on that drink?
1143
00:40:23,589 --> 00:40:25,591
Didn't you?
1144
00:40:25,657 --> 00:40:27,693
You're not smirking.
1145
00:40:27,759 --> 00:40:29,160
What was all this about?
1146
00:40:29,227 --> 00:40:30,361
The truth?
Yeah.
1147
00:40:30,428 --> 00:40:31,963
I was really that lost.
Oh, come on.
1148
00:40:32,030 --> 00:40:33,031
Couching answers
1149
00:40:33,098 --> 00:40:34,500
in tame, time-pressured
sound bites.
1150
00:40:34,566 --> 00:40:35,801
And then when
Josh wouldn't even
1151
00:40:35,867 --> 00:40:37,235
show me that tape,
scared me to death.
1152
00:40:37,302 --> 00:40:38,904
So I leaked it.
1153
00:40:38,970 --> 00:40:40,371
You did.
1154
00:40:40,438 --> 00:40:42,974
I was worried he was so
worried he wouldn't.
So you just
1155
00:40:43,041 --> 00:40:45,310
called up a bunch of reporters,
said, "Hey, Leo McGarry here.
1156
00:40:45,376 --> 00:40:46,912
Just letting you know
I'm one sucky debater."
1157
00:40:46,978 --> 00:40:47,913
I covered my tracks.
1158
00:40:47,979 --> 00:40:49,080
I've been at this awhile.
1159
00:40:49,147 --> 00:40:50,281
Let a couple think
1160
00:40:50,348 --> 00:40:52,250
it was you.
Wasn't the voice a big tip-off?
1161
00:40:52,317 --> 00:40:53,952
There's not enough
helium in the cosmos.
1162
00:40:54,019 --> 00:40:56,387
So I borrowed your
e-mail account.
1163
00:40:56,454 --> 00:40:57,856
Excuse me...
1164
00:40:57,923 --> 00:41:00,125
Never use your cat's
name as your password.
1165
00:41:00,191 --> 00:41:01,359
JOSH:
Hey, I got to get back in there.
1166
00:41:01,426 --> 00:41:02,494
I just want to say good going.
1167
00:41:02,561 --> 00:41:03,695
Got through it.
1168
00:41:03,762 --> 00:41:04,763
JOSH:
You did better than that.
1169
00:41:04,830 --> 00:41:06,397
Just never
make me do this again.
1170
00:41:06,464 --> 00:41:07,799
In four years, book it.
1171
00:41:07,866 --> 00:41:09,668
JOSH:
I'll see you at the thing.
1172
00:41:09,735 --> 00:41:12,504
If you'll excuse me, too,
I have a password to change.
1173
00:41:14,840 --> 00:41:16,441
So I'll see you
in Phoenix on Thursday.
1174
00:41:16,508 --> 00:41:18,143
I'll be there.
1175
00:41:18,209 --> 00:41:20,879
I hear that the hotel's
got this waterslide.
1176
00:41:20,946 --> 00:41:23,348
Oh, pack a Victorian
bathing dress.
1177
00:41:23,414 --> 00:41:24,783
( chuckles ):
I meant for the...
1178
00:41:24,850 --> 00:41:27,519
( chuckles ):
I know what you meant.
1179
00:41:27,586 --> 00:41:29,154
Ah, it's probably
not a good idea
1180
00:41:29,220 --> 00:41:31,222
that they go swimming anyway
with the colds and all.
1181
00:41:31,289 --> 00:41:32,490
No, probably not.
1182
00:41:36,327 --> 00:41:37,529
I miss them like crazy.
1183
00:41:37,596 --> 00:41:38,664
I know you do. I know.
1184
00:41:38,730 --> 00:41:39,865
I miss you, too.
1185
00:41:39,931 --> 00:41:41,700
I'll be there in Phoenix.
1186
00:41:41,767 --> 00:41:43,902
Yeah?
Mm-hmm.
1187
00:42:08,760 --> 00:42:10,128
( sighs )
1188
00:42:12,931 --> 00:42:14,633
WOMAN:
McGarry did
all he needed to do,
1189
00:42:14,700 --> 00:42:16,668
exceed expectations.
1190
00:42:16,735 --> 00:42:18,970
MAN:
How couldn't he, the way
the Democrats spun the run-up?
1191
00:42:19,037 --> 00:42:20,405
WOMAN:
And we fall for it every time,
1192
00:42:20,471 --> 00:42:22,908
reviewing that spin
instead of the substance.
1193
00:42:22,974 --> 00:42:24,643
MAN:
Substance? In a debate?
1194
00:42:24,710 --> 00:42:27,879
I'd be surprised if this debate
changed anyone's mind.
1195
00:42:27,946 --> 00:42:31,950
WOMAN:
Arguably, the best outcome for
the Vice Presidential debate.
1196
00:42:32,017 --> 00:42:33,318
At least, don't send the voters
1197
00:42:33,384 --> 00:42:35,553
running into the arms
of the other guys.
1198
00:42:46,732 --> 00:42:47,666
( sneezes )
1199
00:42:47,733 --> 00:42:48,667
MAN:
Bless you.
1200
00:42:48,734 --> 00:42:50,235
Thank you.
