Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:05,834 --> 00:00:07,539
Previously on The West Wing:
2
00:00:07,707 --> 00:00:09,910
Our first priority is to name
a vice president.
3
00:00:10,122 --> 00:00:13,034
The one guy the president wants,
and I can't get it done...
4
00:00:13,246 --> 00:00:16,242
-...so be quiet for one moment?
-Who is Robert Russell?
5
00:00:16,452 --> 00:00:19,401
-I wasn't sure you could pick me out.
-I didn't have to, Bob.
6
00:00:19,616 --> 00:00:21,984
Folks in western Colorado
had four chances...
7
00:00:22,197 --> 00:00:25,111
...to change their minds about
Bob Russell, and they haven't.
8
00:00:25,321 --> 00:00:26,351
Bob Russell?
9
00:00:29,401 --> 00:00:31,190
-Remarkable.
-His playing?
10
00:00:31,358 --> 00:00:34,189
It's classical piano.
Who can tell one from the other?
11
00:00:34,357 --> 00:00:36,595
-The president.
-So he claims.
12
00:00:37,480 --> 00:00:39,020
-So, what's--?
-He's North Korean.
13
00:00:39,187 --> 00:00:40,762
God knows how he managed
to learn.
14
00:00:40,936 --> 00:00:43,091
Their music's all hymns
to the barley harvest.
15
00:00:43,268 --> 00:00:46,548
-Not that they ever have one.
-Too busy reprocessing plutonium.
16
00:00:46,724 --> 00:00:48,050
Why they're a rogue state.
17
00:00:48,265 --> 00:00:51,214
"Rogue state. " Makes them sound
raffishly charming.
18
00:00:51,388 --> 00:00:53,792
It should be "thug state. "
19
00:00:53,970 --> 00:00:56,801
-Psycho state.
-We'll ask the U.N. to so designate.
20
00:00:56,968 --> 00:00:58,874
Punk state. That's what they are. Punks.
21
00:00:59,050 --> 00:01:03,088
Bunch of punks with what could be
six nuclear warheads.
22
00:01:03,256 --> 00:01:04,913
-In a minute, everyone.
-Thank you.
23
00:01:05,088 --> 00:01:09,577
Okay, you could obliterate Australia,
but know what? You're still just a punk.
24
00:01:09,751 --> 00:01:11,492
Good opener. Use that.
25
00:01:11,667 --> 00:01:14,154
Yeah, I took lessons for six years.
Hopeless.
26
00:01:16,539 --> 00:01:17,866
No sense of time.
27
00:01:18,038 --> 00:01:20,241
I could read okay
and get the fingering down...
28
00:01:20,411 --> 00:01:23,278
...but I should've been sent
to rhythm prison.
29
00:01:24,784 --> 00:01:28,396
What I did to the Appassionata,
war criminals can't get near The Hague.
30
00:01:28,573 --> 00:01:30,195
I have to stay out of Vienna.
31
00:01:36,026 --> 00:01:38,596
-More amusing in English.
-Marginally.
32
00:01:38,775 --> 00:01:41,724
My chief of staff, Leo McGarry.
C.J. Cregg, press secretary.
33
00:01:41,899 --> 00:01:43,971
-Welcome.
-An honor.
34
00:01:44,188 --> 00:01:45,929
C.J. Cregg.
35
00:01:48,477 --> 00:01:50,929
-He asks if you both play as well.
-No, no.
36
00:01:51,100 --> 00:01:53,007
Chopsticks.
37
00:01:53,890 --> 00:01:55,796
A beginner's piece...
38
00:01:57,222 --> 00:02:00,834
...with an incredibly insensitive name.
I'm sorry.
39
00:02:01,011 --> 00:02:02,716
Are we ready?
40
00:02:07,215 --> 00:02:11,207
Okay, everyone. Remember, pics only,
no questions. Come on in.
41
00:02:16,002 --> 00:02:17,743
Welcome to the White House.
42
00:02:19,750 --> 00:02:23,278
I wanna say how honored we are,
hosting your first concert appearance...
43
00:02:23,456 --> 00:02:25,492
...here in the West.
44
00:02:26,287 --> 00:02:28,158
We thank the North Korean
government...
45
00:02:28,369 --> 00:02:31,815
...for so generously sharing
one of their national treasures.
46
00:02:32,033 --> 00:02:35,527
And we hope this marks just the first
of many such cultural exchanges...
47
00:02:35,739 --> 00:02:39,269
...leading to improved relations
between our two countries.
48
00:02:52,604 --> 00:02:55,007
He thanks the president for his words...
49
00:02:55,186 --> 00:02:58,052
...and says all glory flow
to our dear leader...
50
00:02:58,225 --> 00:03:02,003
...for whom he wishes long life
and good health.
51
00:03:05,263 --> 00:03:06,719
Really.
52
00:03:06,886 --> 00:03:09,966
Next time he's overseas,
be nice if Yo-Yo Ma said that.
53
00:03:13,424 --> 00:03:14,964
I wanna thank you for the visit.
54
00:03:15,381 --> 00:03:17,749
We greatly look forward
to tonight's concert.
55
00:03:19,712 --> 00:03:22,494
Okay, everyone, thank you very much.
56
00:03:23,459 --> 00:03:26,953
Will you be seeing any sights
during your day here in Washington?
57
00:03:27,124 --> 00:03:28,912
We will visit Lincoln's Memorial...
58
00:03:29,081 --> 00:03:31,568
...commemorating the shameful
practice of slavery...
59
00:03:31,746 --> 00:03:33,652
...the Vietnam wall of death.
60
00:03:40,449 --> 00:03:44,108
-CD, I will sign.
-Great.
61
00:03:51,859 --> 00:03:53,765
I'll treasure this. Thank you.
62
00:03:54,524 --> 00:03:56,348
Pleasure all mine.
63
00:04:04,101 --> 00:04:07,132
-Sweet kid.
-The handlers are a lot of laughs.
64
00:04:07,307 --> 00:04:11,512
Bet they can pretty much transform any
place into their own little wall of death.
65
00:04:12,054 --> 00:04:14,127
-What?
-This isn't an autograph.
66
00:04:15,302 --> 00:04:16,552
It's a message.
67
00:05:10,251 --> 00:05:12,711
This is complicated.
68
00:05:13,175 --> 00:05:15,886
Get the counsel's office, Justice, NSC...
69
00:05:16,059 --> 00:05:17,972
...State, lmmigration in right away.
70
00:05:18,149 --> 00:05:20,311
-Find out what we're talking about here.
-Yes.
71
00:05:20,489 --> 00:05:22,319
-But it's--
-Complicated. I know.
72
00:05:22,704 --> 00:05:24,450
-Anything you need?
-When's he back?
73
00:05:24,626 --> 00:05:26,456
Rehearsal and sound check at 2:30.
74
00:05:26,674 --> 00:05:28,420
We behave like this isn't happening.
75
00:05:28,638 --> 00:05:30,799
-It may not be happening.
-I don't understand.
76
00:05:30,977 --> 00:05:33,984
We've been in secret negotiations
with North Korea in Geneva...
77
00:05:34,153 --> 00:05:36,863
...the last three weeks.
About their nuclear program.
78
00:05:37,078 --> 00:05:40,001
-This guy defects, everybody goes home.
-We don't know that.
79
00:05:40,213 --> 00:05:42,624
-Let's find out.
-We're not turning him away.
80
00:05:42,845 --> 00:05:45,055
-Of course not.
-It's complicated.
81
00:05:45,645 --> 00:05:47,807
-Thank you, Mr. President.
-Thank you, sir.
82
00:05:49,656 --> 00:05:51,700
Congressman Thiele
needs to come over...
83
00:05:51,871 --> 00:05:54,413
-...before the VP confirmation vote.
-Which is noon?
84
00:05:54,587 --> 00:05:58,544
Senate's noon. House votes at 4. Get
him in after the Punch and Judy show.
85
00:05:58,724 --> 00:06:02,563
The citizens would be comforted knowing
how you refer to the economic advisers.
86
00:06:02,736 --> 00:06:04,816
They don't have to sit
in a room with them.
87
00:06:04,992 --> 00:06:07,155
-Why do you want Thiele?
-He's voting against.
88
00:06:07,333 --> 00:06:09,828
Confirmation's gonna be 534 to one.
89
00:06:10,006 --> 00:06:12,217
I can see why you wanna squeeze him.
90
00:06:12,388 --> 00:06:14,884
Thiele's the only no vote.
He's catch-of-the-day.
91
00:06:15,063 --> 00:06:18,485
Gets on every show explaining why
Russell's a lousy choice for VP.
92
00:06:18,657 --> 00:06:21,866
-Which you agree with.
-But don't want anybody saying out loud.
93
00:06:22,041 --> 00:06:24,418
I either turn him
or get 10 other guys to vote no.
94
00:06:24,591 --> 00:06:28,096
-lf I tell you something, try not be so you.
-Yeah. What's going on?
95
00:06:28,393 --> 00:06:32,731
I'm taking my aunt and uncle from
Wisconsin on a tour of the White House.
96
00:06:32,906 --> 00:06:36,412
I'd rather not go through cheesehead
jokes, which are beneath you.
97
00:06:36,584 --> 00:06:38,664
Know what's the state bird?
The Muenster.
98
00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:42,595
State motto? "Live Brie or die. " It beat
"You can have my wheel of cheddar...
99
00:06:42,767 --> 00:06:45,310
...when you pry it out of my dead,
stinky fingers. "
100
00:06:46,737 --> 00:06:48,698
Drag about the unemployment numbers.
101
00:06:48,910 --> 00:06:52,368
You're gonna be added to them if
you don't get out from behind my desk.
102
00:06:55,262 --> 00:06:56,807
You have an office.
103
00:06:56,975 --> 00:06:58,936
Don't read my memo.
104
00:06:59,399 --> 00:07:03,107
I can't learn anything from you
if I'm sitting across the street all day.
105
00:07:03,286 --> 00:07:05,782
Here's a lesson:
Ask permission before you do stuff.
106
00:07:05,959 --> 00:07:07,872
-Where you going?
-Meeting.
107
00:07:08,049 --> 00:07:10,295
Can I go with you?
108
00:07:10,473 --> 00:07:11,886
No.
109
00:07:12,604 --> 00:07:14,315
That was good.
110
00:07:16,323 --> 00:07:18,534
Oh, I couldn't agree more.
111
00:07:18,705 --> 00:07:21,332
Yes, the moment calls for bipartisanship.
112
00:07:21,504 --> 00:07:25,177
I'll see you in the Rose Garden
for the announcement this afternoon.
113
00:07:25,641 --> 00:07:29,148
Parlous. It's like I was talking
to John C. Calhoun.
114
00:07:29,569 --> 00:07:33,444
This draft of the Rose Garden thing,
it needs more altitude.
115
00:07:33,665 --> 00:07:34,698
-Altitude?
-Loftier.
116
00:07:34,877 --> 00:07:38,466
If I don't sound enthused, how do we
expect the country to get excited?
117
00:07:38,638 --> 00:07:41,014
-Yes, sir.
-You're not very excited about him.
118
00:07:41,228 --> 00:07:42,642
Oh, no. I mean, sure.
119
00:07:42,817 --> 00:07:45,906
-I'm not not excited about him.
-What you sounded like then...
120
00:07:46,076 --> 00:07:47,822
...is how this reads.
121
00:07:47,998 --> 00:07:50,458
-Let's take the equivocation out of it.
-Yes, sir.
122
00:07:50,630 --> 00:07:53,090
-Thank you, Mr. President.
-Yeah.
123
00:07:53,305 --> 00:07:54,766
So Will's working out.
124
00:07:54,934 --> 00:07:57,145
-Seems to be.
-President loved his Zoey speech.
125
00:07:57,316 --> 00:07:59,360
We all did.
126
00:08:06,635 --> 00:08:10,890
-So I'm gonna start doing other things.
-What other things?
127
00:08:12,861 --> 00:08:14,192
We're drifting.
128
00:08:14,365 --> 00:08:17,456
-We've had to deal with some stuff.
-Which has left us drifting.
129
00:08:17,667 --> 00:08:19,747
-We need to refocus. Get on message.
-Okay.
130
00:08:19,923 --> 00:08:21,718
-So I'll start with that.
-Good.
131
00:08:21,887 --> 00:08:24,562
-Since Will's working out.
-The president's not crazy...
132
00:08:24,729 --> 00:08:26,274
...about his Rose Garden draft.
133
00:08:28,155 --> 00:08:29,652
Gentlemen.
134
00:08:29,952 --> 00:08:31,615
-Morning, everyone.
-Mr. President.
135
00:08:31,791 --> 00:08:33,537
Good morning, sir.
136
00:08:35,677 --> 00:08:37,340
What's the bad news?
137
00:08:37,515 --> 00:08:39,928
Well, sir, there are
some troubling indicators.
138
00:08:40,107 --> 00:08:43,446
ISM's still below 50.
Consumer confidence remains low.
139
00:08:43,616 --> 00:08:45,328
That's hangover from the kidnapping.
140
00:08:45,539 --> 00:08:48,796
-The kidnapping, the bombing... .
-Regardless. It's down.
141
00:08:49,007 --> 00:08:52,049
-With these unemployment numbers... .
-So where are we heading?
142
00:08:52,225 --> 00:08:54,899
Signs indicate we could be
sliding toward...
143
00:08:56,237 --> 00:08:57,567
...bagel.
144
00:08:57,741 --> 00:09:01,163
Larry doesn't need a vacation.
That's the word we've agreed to use...
145
00:09:01,334 --> 00:09:03,747
-...to avoid using the R-word.
-Recession?
146
00:09:05,806 --> 00:09:08,183
I need your recommendation
for keeping us out of--
147
00:09:08,354 --> 00:09:10,150
I don't have to call it that, do I?
148
00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:13,367
-Of course not.
-For keeping us out of a thing.
149
00:09:13,578 --> 00:09:15,206
We do nothing.
150
00:09:15,459 --> 00:09:17,502
The tech bubble led to overinvestment.
151
00:09:17,674 --> 00:09:20,251
-This is a normal correction.
-We don't know that.
152
00:09:20,431 --> 00:09:22,642
Bubbles burst.
That's why they're bubbles.
153
00:09:22,813 --> 00:09:25,737
Explain that to the 1.2 million people
who lost their jobs.
154
00:09:25,947 --> 00:09:27,943
-Phone them. They're home.
-Fed does its thing.
155
00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:31,246
A reduction of 25 basis points
stops the bleeding.
156
00:09:31,464 --> 00:09:34,089
You can't. It'll look like
we're asleep at the switch.
157
00:09:34,305 --> 00:09:37,513
-A stimulus package.
-Increase the deficit. That's responsible.
158
00:09:37,689 --> 00:09:41,397
Something temporary. A one-year
increase in the standard deduction.
159
00:09:41,617 --> 00:09:44,827
Which helps not at all the bottom
40 percent of wage-earners...
160
00:09:45,003 --> 00:09:46,333
...who don't pay income tax.
161
00:09:46,549 --> 00:09:49,757
Stop or I'm gonna start shooting people.
Starting with myself.
162
00:09:50,058 --> 00:09:52,269
I asked for a recommendation,
not a debate.
163
00:09:52,482 --> 00:09:54,812
-Wake me when there's a consensus.
-Thank you.
164
00:09:54,990 --> 00:09:57,366
-Thank you, sir.
-What's the matter with you guys?
165
00:09:57,580 --> 00:09:59,291
The man's got a Nobel in this.
166
00:09:59,460 --> 00:10:01,504
My other meeting's here.
167
00:10:04,934 --> 00:10:06,480
-Good morning.
-Good morning.
168
00:10:06,649 --> 00:10:08,193
Good morning.
169
00:10:09,531 --> 00:10:11,028
Please.
170
00:10:12,206 --> 00:10:15,212
Thanks for coming. What do we think?
171
00:10:15,382 --> 00:10:18,423
You don't blow a negotiation
of this magnitude over some kid.
172
00:10:18,599 --> 00:10:20,476
I don't care if he plays with his feet.
173
00:10:20,688 --> 00:10:23,231
-It violates international law.
-U.S. law.
174
00:10:23,447 --> 00:10:26,656
One thing at a time.
The negotiations. They for real?
175
00:10:27,417 --> 00:10:29,710
And we're not just talking about
another freeze.
176
00:10:29,924 --> 00:10:31,671
Hundreds more sensors installed.
177
00:10:31,888 --> 00:10:34,300
Inspectors on the ground
in Youngdoktong.
178
00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:36,813
They've broken agreements.
What's different now?
179
00:10:36,986 --> 00:10:40,277
The Chinese. They're worried
that the North's nuclear program...
180
00:10:40,454 --> 00:10:43,164
...will push Japan
into finally developing the bomb.
181
00:10:43,380 --> 00:10:47,550
The Koreans screw around this time,
they piss off the only ally they have left.
182
00:10:47,766 --> 00:10:50,774
This is serious, they're gonna blow it
over some piano player.
183
00:10:50,985 --> 00:10:53,480
It's the most unpredictable regime
in the world.
184
00:10:53,700 --> 00:10:56,458
Walking out on negotiations
could be the least they do.
185
00:10:56,668 --> 00:10:58,165
They'd shell Seoul over this?
186
00:10:58,381 --> 00:10:59,961
You wanna find out?
187
00:11:01,556 --> 00:11:03,553
Swell, but we can't send him back.
188
00:11:03,729 --> 00:11:06,404
Listen very carefully:
It's against the law.
189
00:11:06,613 --> 00:11:08,942
Title 8 of the lmmigration
and Nationality Act...
190
00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:11,200
...prohibits sending an alien back...
191
00:11:11,376 --> 00:11:13,872
...if he has a well-founded fear
of being persecuted.
192
00:11:14,093 --> 00:11:17,718
Persecuted? He's the most privileged guy
in the entire country.
193
00:11:17,937 --> 00:11:21,609
Since the penalty for attempted
defection is death, that may just change.
194
00:11:21,824 --> 00:11:24,746
He's in jeopardy if the Koreans find out.
You gonna tell?
195
00:11:24,915 --> 00:11:26,412
-Any straws in the wind?
-Quiet.
196
00:11:26,587 --> 00:11:29,594
This appears locked down for now.
My office is monitoring it.
197
00:11:29,931 --> 00:11:33,555
-This gets out, it's game over.
-This conversation gets out.
198
00:11:33,733 --> 00:11:37,108
-And we're comfortable with that?
-What's your point?
199
00:11:37,327 --> 00:11:40,666
Understand, he doesn't wanna go,
he has a right to apply for asylum.
200
00:11:40,878 --> 00:11:42,839
Can we get back to the real world?
201
00:11:43,051 --> 00:11:46,593
North Koreans are peddling missile
technology all over the Middle East.
202
00:11:46,812 --> 00:11:50,318
And sensors on the border have picked
up elevated levels of krypton 85.
203
00:11:50,489 --> 00:11:53,450
They are making plutonium.
They can get it onto warheads.
204
00:11:53,665 --> 00:11:55,995
Their best customers
are the people who hate us.
205
00:11:56,214 --> 00:11:59,554
-Why are we talking about this?
-How we can get past the legal issues?
206
00:11:59,724 --> 00:12:02,934
I don't see how you can send him
back to the bleakest place left...
207
00:12:03,110 --> 00:12:05,106
...after he tells you
he doesn't wanna go.
208
00:12:05,282 --> 00:12:07,957
It's not that bleak.
The DMZ is beautiful.
209
00:12:08,166 --> 00:12:09,746
It's like a nature preserve.
210
00:12:09,921 --> 00:12:13,343
Endangered blackfaced spoonbills,
Amur leopards.
211
00:12:13,556 --> 00:12:16,052
-What's your point?
-I know more about this than you.
212
00:12:16,272 --> 00:12:17,603
The legal issues.
213
00:12:17,944 --> 00:12:20,487
The guy doesn't know his rights.
It's a nonproblem.
214
00:12:20,660 --> 00:12:24,118
What's a big problem
is if he tells anyone else.
215
00:12:24,421 --> 00:12:26,084
-Where is he now?
-Sightseeing.
216
00:12:26,302 --> 00:12:27,882
He'll be back at 2:30.
217
00:12:28,641 --> 00:12:30,055
Don't let him back in.
218
00:12:30,981 --> 00:12:34,606
Well, the good news is his handlers
don't let him out of their sight.
219
00:12:35,662 --> 00:12:37,325
It's like they're working for us.
220
00:12:37,542 --> 00:12:39,955
Our very own totalitarian helpmates.
221
00:12:40,175 --> 00:12:41,588
Excuse me a minute.
222
00:12:45,189 --> 00:12:46,650
C.J.?
223
00:12:56,681 --> 00:12:58,761
-What are you doing?
-Don't let him back in?
224
00:12:58,937 --> 00:13:02,312
-We look from every angle.
-The president's not sending him back.
225
00:13:02,531 --> 00:13:04,408
My job is to present him with options.
226
00:13:04,578 --> 00:13:07,538
Your job, at the moment, is to butt out.
227
00:13:07,963 --> 00:13:11,635
We've certainly come a long way
from "give me your tired, your poor. "
228
00:13:11,807 --> 00:13:14,648
If we don't allow this defection,
if we blithely exploit...
229
00:13:14,817 --> 00:13:18,869
...this young man's ignorance,
then I don't know who we are anymore.
230
00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:42,017
The VP intro needs to go on the
prompter by 2. How you doing?
231
00:13:42,229 --> 00:13:44,641
-I have altitude sickness.
-I'm sorry?
232
00:13:44,819 --> 00:13:47,660
The president wants altitude.
I'm having conscience issues.
233
00:13:47,870 --> 00:13:51,412
You've had to say things you haven't
meant before. Read friends' poetry...
234
00:13:51,589 --> 00:13:53,716
-...had girlfriends.
-I could use help.
235
00:13:54,472 --> 00:13:57,147
-Hold your nose and hype him.
-The president hated this.
236
00:13:57,314 --> 00:13:59,525
My self-confidence is down
around my ankles.
237
00:13:59,738 --> 00:14:02,280
Well, hitch it up and start typing.
Come on.
238
00:14:03,666 --> 00:14:06,756
-You're really not gonna help me?
-I have things to do.
239
00:14:08,597 --> 00:14:10,474
-Lyle.
-This being his first visit...
240
00:14:10,644 --> 00:14:13,319
...can you share Jai Yung Ahn's
impressions of America?
241
00:14:13,527 --> 00:14:17,615
You'd need to ask him. His impression
of our buffet table seemed favorable.
242
00:14:17,790 --> 00:14:20,333
-Katie.
-Is there concern this cultural exchange...
243
00:14:20,506 --> 00:14:22,967
...confers legitimacy on
the North Korean regime?
244
00:14:23,139 --> 00:14:25,813
It's hoped exchanges help
bring light to such places...
245
00:14:25,980 --> 00:14:28,273
...nudging them toward
more open policies.
246
00:14:28,488 --> 00:14:30,234
Is he free to go where he pleases?
247
00:14:30,410 --> 00:14:32,572
His mother didn't want him
hitting clubs...
248
00:14:32,750 --> 00:14:36,125
...but, as far as I know, he's seeing
the sights even as we speak.
249
00:14:36,344 --> 00:14:40,396
Moving to the economy, do today's
unemployment figures indicate recession?
250
00:14:40,606 --> 00:14:43,446
Recession means two consecutive
quarters of negative growth.
251
00:14:43,614 --> 00:14:44,992
That's not the situation.
252
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:47,287
How would you characterize
the economy, then?
253
00:14:47,459 --> 00:14:49,004
-I wouldn't.
-lf not recession...
254
00:14:49,172 --> 00:14:52,963
...what word would the administration
use? Slowdown, downturn, torpor?
255
00:14:53,184 --> 00:14:54,847
-Torpor.
-It means... .
256
00:14:55,022 --> 00:14:57,946
I know what it means.
I'm feeling a little coming on now.
257
00:15:01,374 --> 00:15:02,955
-Yeah.
-Can't ditch the kid.
258
00:15:03,129 --> 00:15:04,460
-Leo.
-Can't do it, Josh.
259
00:15:04,633 --> 00:15:07,129
I don't need his old man
on my call sheet.
260
00:15:08,185 --> 00:15:09,849
Okay.
261
00:15:12,238 --> 00:15:13,570
Our poll numbers are down.
262
00:15:15,331 --> 00:15:16,744
-What poll?
-An internal.
263
00:15:16,961 --> 00:15:19,836
His approval rating, down 11 points.
264
00:15:20,011 --> 00:15:21,888
Was it high from the kidnapping?
265
00:15:22,100 --> 00:15:25,475
-Yeah.
-We knew it wasn't gonna stay up there.
266
00:15:25,777 --> 00:15:27,240
Yeah.
267
00:15:27,532 --> 00:15:29,529
-Where are we on Thiele?
-He's coming over.
268
00:15:29,747 --> 00:15:33,705
He votes against, it'll be all Thiele,
all the time.
269
00:15:37,645 --> 00:15:40,272
-Is something going on?
-Get us Thiele.
270
00:15:45,209 --> 00:15:46,587
Josh.
271
00:15:47,298 --> 00:15:50,804
-My Aunt Barbara and Uncle Ted.
-Hi. Good to meet you both.
272
00:15:50,975 --> 00:15:54,101
-Welcome.
-Any chance of getting them in tonight?
273
00:15:54,277 --> 00:15:57,949
Sorry. There are senators
on the waiting list.
274
00:15:58,121 --> 00:15:59,583
Mostly Republicans.
275
00:16:02,383 --> 00:16:04,546
You're Republicans.
276
00:16:04,723 --> 00:16:07,136
There's a rehearsal I can get you into...
277
00:16:07,314 --> 00:16:08,859
-...this afternoon.
-Wonderful.
278
00:16:09,069 --> 00:16:11,827
Donna tells us you were meeting
with economic advisers?
279
00:16:12,037 --> 00:16:15,494
Not so much meeting as fighting off
slipping into a coma.
280
00:16:15,714 --> 00:16:17,425
-Pretty dense.
-They never agree.
281
00:16:17,636 --> 00:16:21,344
Yet no one is remotely afflicted
by doubt.
282
00:16:21,522 --> 00:16:25,480
Like with diets. There's all these diet
theories, all completely contradictory.
283
00:16:25,659 --> 00:16:27,655
Most doctors agree
the healthiest advice...
284
00:16:27,832 --> 00:16:30,542
...is just to eat a variety of food
in moderate amounts.
285
00:16:31,092 --> 00:16:34,264
Maybe that's the approach
to take with economists.
286
00:16:34,434 --> 00:16:38,142
-Take from every theory in moderation.
-Yeah.
287
00:16:38,613 --> 00:16:40,574
Interesting.
288
00:16:41,705 --> 00:16:45,461
-So, Ted, what is it that you do?
-I'm a sales rep for a dairy consortium.
289
00:16:46,469 --> 00:16:49,761
-You mean cheese?
-Absolutely.
290
00:16:51,818 --> 00:16:53,195
Well, enjoy your tour.
291
00:16:54,868 --> 00:16:56,366
Have fun.
292
00:17:05,148 --> 00:17:07,310
Did you know North Korea's
the only country...
293
00:17:07,488 --> 00:17:09,781
...where it's impossible
to access the Internet?
294
00:17:10,079 --> 00:17:12,574
All TVs and radios are preset
before they're sold...
295
00:17:12,753 --> 00:17:15,380
...so they receive only
state-controlled stations?
296
00:17:15,553 --> 00:17:16,931
It's a bad place.
297
00:17:17,141 --> 00:17:19,637
Imagine what it must be like
to live in a society...
298
00:17:19,816 --> 00:17:23,952
...so completely regimented, where the
only music allowed glorifies the state.
299
00:17:24,704 --> 00:17:27,117
It's amazing he'd wanna go back.
300
00:17:34,608 --> 00:17:36,271
C.J.?
301
00:17:41,586 --> 00:17:44,510
We're controlling media access
to Jai Yung Ahn?
302
00:17:44,679 --> 00:17:47,435
Pool spray at the sound check,
if he's still doing one.
303
00:17:47,645 --> 00:17:49,227
-No questions.
-They understand...
304
00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:51,777
...the Koreans won't allow it.
305
00:17:51,950 --> 00:17:54,077
So he's being allowed back
in the building.
306
00:17:54,248 --> 00:17:56,411
Leo tells me you have
a strong view on this.
307
00:17:56,588 --> 00:17:59,678
Yes. For one thing, sending him back
would seem to be illegal.
308
00:17:59,889 --> 00:18:02,183
Our hand's not forced
unless he tells anyone.
309
00:18:02,397 --> 00:18:03,775
He's told us.
310
00:18:03,985 --> 00:18:05,696
He's asked the president for asylum.
311
00:18:05,865 --> 00:18:08,492
He'd have been better off
asking some cab driver?
312
00:18:08,706 --> 00:18:10,584
You know the rationale.
313
00:18:10,795 --> 00:18:14,504
So the Iranians don't wake up and
decide, "It's a good day to nuke Israel. "
314
00:18:14,932 --> 00:18:18,309
Seven North Korean nuclear scientists
defected through China last year.
315
00:18:18,484 --> 00:18:22,406
We helped pay for it. Are we saying if he
were more valuable, we'd accept him?
316
00:18:22,621 --> 00:18:25,581
Is that such an unreasonable
distinction?
317
00:18:25,881 --> 00:18:27,842
This isn't your real argument.
318
00:18:28,013 --> 00:18:30,686
Sending him back will play
as a disaster if it gets out.
319
00:18:30,854 --> 00:18:33,397
That's not your real argument either.
320
00:18:34,405 --> 00:18:36,283
No, sir, it's not.
321
00:18:36,453 --> 00:18:39,163
This young man's asking for freedom.
322
00:18:39,337 --> 00:18:41,083
It's what this country was built on.
323
00:18:41,259 --> 00:18:44,551
Everyone's from somewhere else.
Someplace less free.
324
00:18:48,112 --> 00:18:49,906
That's my argument.
325
00:18:55,382 --> 00:18:57,343
-Thank you.
-Thank you, Mr. President.
326
00:18:57,555 --> 00:18:59,802
Thank you, sir.
327
00:19:17,948 --> 00:19:20,491
-We have a meeting.
-Outstanding.
328
00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:25,426
Okay, you can't say things
like "outstanding" during it.
329
00:19:25,595 --> 00:19:29,185
I was pretty sure you didn't
want me saying anything at all.
330
00:19:29,649 --> 00:19:31,062
We're meeting with...?
331
00:19:31,236 --> 00:19:34,113
Congressman Thiele,
Democrat from Rhode Island.
332
00:19:34,286 --> 00:19:36,413
-He interned for my uncle.
-Of course he did.
333
00:19:36,585 --> 00:19:40,721
He's voting against Russell. I have to
whip him into shape. Watch and learn.
334
00:19:47,032 --> 00:19:48,493
Yeah.
335
00:19:49,498 --> 00:19:51,293
Will's fixing the VP intro.
336
00:19:51,462 --> 00:19:54,136
Good, since that would be his job.
337
00:19:54,428 --> 00:19:56,341
I'm not sure I was clear before.
338
00:19:56,936 --> 00:20:00,227
We need to get back our focus.
Work up a message calendar...
339
00:20:00,404 --> 00:20:03,327
-...like in the campaigns.
-Long term.
340
00:20:03,496 --> 00:20:07,335
I'm talking about something else.
Not articulating the message. Shaping it.
341
00:20:07,549 --> 00:20:09,296
-You do shape it.
-I mean full-time.
342
00:20:09,513 --> 00:20:12,556
-You have responsibilities.
-That I can turn over.
343
00:20:13,943 --> 00:20:15,274
To Will?
344
00:20:21,924 --> 00:20:23,255
We should discuss it.
345
00:20:25,769 --> 00:20:27,349
Not today.
346
00:20:31,159 --> 00:20:34,915
-Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow.
-Yeah.
347
00:20:40,603 --> 00:20:42,933
We are drifting.
348
00:20:43,445 --> 00:20:45,941
This doesn't make any sense.
349
00:20:46,120 --> 00:20:50,076
I don't like the guy. I'm voting against
him. What doesn't make sense?
350
00:20:50,841 --> 00:20:53,551
You're embarrassing the president.
351
00:20:54,100 --> 00:20:58,605
He's got a margin of 533 votes. He must
have a low threshold of embarrassment.
352
00:20:58,823 --> 00:21:01,401
It's grandstanding. It's a way
to get in the paper...
353
00:21:01,581 --> 00:21:03,910
...only it's gonna make
you look eccentric.
354
00:21:04,088 --> 00:21:06,762
-Like some kind of goofball crank.
-I beg your pardon?
355
00:21:06,930 --> 00:21:09,555
-You're embarrassing yourself.
-Look--
356
00:21:09,771 --> 00:21:13,526
You want his backing for anything
you wanna accomplish this term...
357
00:21:13,740 --> 00:21:16,117
...as opposed to pulling
publicity stunts...
358
00:21:16,332 --> 00:21:19,291
...you'll swallow what petty animus
you bear toward the guy...
359
00:21:19,465 --> 00:21:21,509
...about to be number two
in your party...
360
00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:25,816
...and you will give your president what
he wants, a unanimous confirmation.
361
00:21:26,026 --> 00:21:29,616
My petty animus is that
Russell's not good enough.
362
00:21:29,787 --> 00:21:33,839
Which is what you've been saying to each
other since his name was announced.
363
00:21:34,008 --> 00:21:36,468
Think I don't know how you got rolled
on Berryhill?
364
00:21:36,681 --> 00:21:39,392
Or forced to settle for this party hack?
365
00:21:39,607 --> 00:21:43,529
You've put someone second-rate next to
a president with a serious health problem.
366
00:21:43,744 --> 00:21:47,583
You wanna talk about embarrassment?
Be embarrassed about that.
367
00:21:59,749 --> 00:22:02,958
The North Koreans have canceled
the pool spray at the sound check.
368
00:22:03,133 --> 00:22:05,011
-Okay.
-He doesn't like people around...
369
00:22:05,181 --> 00:22:06,892
...when he's rehearsing.
370
00:22:07,897 --> 00:22:09,809
Sorry.
371
00:22:10,070 --> 00:22:11,816
Talk to Thiele?
372
00:22:11,992 --> 00:22:14,154
Yeah. I'm gonna need a plan B.
373
00:22:18,678 --> 00:22:20,972
The VP intro is finished?
374
00:22:21,144 --> 00:22:23,770
-Will's doing last touches.
-Help him out, will you?
375
00:22:23,943 --> 00:22:25,654
-He's got it.
-He was having trouble.
376
00:22:25,824 --> 00:22:27,951
Look it over, punch it up.
377
00:22:28,164 --> 00:22:30,660
-Yes, sir.
-Sir, something happened at the briefing.
378
00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:34,755
I got questions about the economy,
and I felt like I was tap-dancing.
379
00:22:34,976 --> 00:22:38,148
-Saw it. I thought you were fine.
-Deft. Extremely deft.
380
00:22:38,360 --> 00:22:41,236
I appreciate your attempt
to compliment me out of my point.
381
00:22:41,410 --> 00:22:45,416
I feel self-conscious about our lack of
vocabulary to describe the economy.
382
00:22:45,631 --> 00:22:46,962
She get the bagel memo?
383
00:22:47,177 --> 00:22:49,470
Argue the president's
responsibility to do it.
384
00:22:49,643 --> 00:22:52,649
Setting a positive tone
helps bring about positive results.
385
00:22:52,860 --> 00:22:56,735
I don't wanna don a shroud. I just think
the Pollyanna act's not wearing well.
386
00:22:56,955 --> 00:23:00,711
I'm worried that avoidance starts to look
like maybe we just haven't noticed.
387
00:23:00,883 --> 00:23:05,103
We appear out of touch. Like presidents
who don't know the price of milk.
388
00:23:08,781 --> 00:23:11,741
-Sir, do you know the price of milk?
-Not precisely.
389
00:23:11,957 --> 00:23:13,538
Neither do I. Do any of us?
390
00:23:15,467 --> 00:23:18,676
Okay. Let's get on coming up
with a language plan...
391
00:23:18,852 --> 00:23:21,431
...for talking more realistically
about the economy.
392
00:23:21,610 --> 00:23:24,105
That session this morning
with the advisers.
393
00:23:24,284 --> 00:23:27,041
Everybody's got a magic lever
they want you to push.
394
00:23:27,335 --> 00:23:31,506
I've studied economics all my life,
but in this job, only a fool is ever certain.
395
00:23:31,722 --> 00:23:35,394
You don't push any one lever.
You wanna push a little on them all.
396
00:23:35,608 --> 00:23:39,031
-From every theory in moderation.
-Exactly.
397
00:23:39,202 --> 00:23:41,198
-Thank you.
-Thank you, Mr. President.
398
00:23:41,375 --> 00:23:43,455
C.J.
399
00:23:47,476 --> 00:23:49,972
These negotiations are the real thing.
400
00:23:50,276 --> 00:23:53,866
I can't allow this defection. I know you
disagree, but that's my decision.
401
00:23:54,079 --> 00:23:55,492
Thank you, Mr. President.
402
00:23:55,667 --> 00:23:59,374
It's not that I disagree, sir.
I'm disappointed.
403
00:24:07,158 --> 00:24:10,414
We'll get someone
from State to tell the kid.
404
00:24:10,584 --> 00:24:12,664
No. I'll do it.
405
00:24:12,883 --> 00:24:15,890
-Sir--
-It's my call. I tell him.
406
00:24:18,858 --> 00:24:20,569
Is she okay?
407
00:24:20,739 --> 00:24:22,069
I don't know.
408
00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:28,463
-Hey.
-Hello.
409
00:24:33,985 --> 00:24:37,195
Got my ass kicked
a little bit ago by Thiele.
410
00:24:37,413 --> 00:24:39,622
-The Russell vote?
-Yeah.
411
00:24:39,835 --> 00:24:41,380
It was in front of Richie Rich.
412
00:24:41,549 --> 00:24:43,592
The Pierce kid?
413
00:24:44,098 --> 00:24:45,476
Thiele's gonna be everywhere.
414
00:24:45,686 --> 00:24:47,813
The republic will stand.
415
00:24:48,695 --> 00:24:52,915
I'm gonna do damage control.
I'm gonna leak it that Thiele wanted it.
416
00:24:53,082 --> 00:24:56,173
-The vice presidency?
-Yeah. Make it just look like pique.
417
00:24:56,384 --> 00:24:59,556
A congressman from the smallest state
expecting to be named VP.
418
00:24:59,768 --> 00:25:03,190
-He's really gonna seem like a crackpot.
-God.
419
00:25:03,362 --> 00:25:05,239
Don't ever get mad at me.
420
00:25:05,451 --> 00:25:08,494
-I've gotten mad at you.
-Why it's better when we don't talk.
421
00:25:09,421 --> 00:25:11,964
Come by tonight.
We can not talk some more.
422
00:25:22,751 --> 00:25:25,711
-"It's with abundant pleasure and pride--"
-Surpassing.
423
00:25:25,928 --> 00:25:27,888
More altitude.
424
00:25:28,643 --> 00:25:31,520
The prompter guys needed the disk
a half an hour ago.
425
00:25:31,694 --> 00:25:33,025
Go away.
426
00:25:33,198 --> 00:25:36,038
"It's with surpassing
pleasure and pride... .
427
00:25:36,248 --> 00:25:37,959
Robert Russell... .
428
00:25:38,171 --> 00:25:42,010
Confirmed by overwhelming vote,
as befits this distinguished choice. "
429
00:25:42,182 --> 00:25:44,512
-"Distinguished. "
-Wanna use "surpassing" again?
430
00:25:44,732 --> 00:25:47,144
Eminent, illustrious.
431
00:25:47,323 --> 00:25:49,615
-He's none of those things.
-This is my problem.
432
00:25:49,787 --> 00:25:53,793
Nor is he laudable or someone you'd walk
across the room to shake hands with.
433
00:25:54,008 --> 00:25:56,635
And the president wants altitude.
434
00:25:56,808 --> 00:25:58,686
"As befits this vertiginous choice... . "
435
00:26:01,822 --> 00:26:06,458
"Distinguished" is as high as we go.
You'd have to be high to go loftier.
436
00:26:06,670 --> 00:26:08,832
Here's what it should be:
437
00:26:10,180 --> 00:26:15,065
In a triumph of the middling, a nod
to mediocrity, and with gorge rising...
438
00:26:15,236 --> 00:26:18,112
...it gives me great nausea
to announce Robert Russell...
439
00:26:18,287 --> 00:26:21,127
...Bingo Bob himself,
as your new vice president.
440
00:26:22,215 --> 00:26:26,516
This lapdog of mining interests
is as dull as he is unremarkable.
441
00:26:26,686 --> 00:26:28,813
-As lackluster as he is soporific.
-Good.
442
00:26:28,984 --> 00:26:32,193
-This reversion to the mean...
-This rebuke to the exemplary... .
443
00:26:32,410 --> 00:26:34,871
...gives hope to millions
unfavored by the exceptional.
444
00:26:35,043 --> 00:26:37,337
The vice presidency,
being famously described...
445
00:26:37,509 --> 00:26:39,720
...as not being worth
a warm bucket of spit...
446
00:26:39,891 --> 00:26:42,850
...let's now hock a big loogie
for Bob Russell.
447
00:26:43,025 --> 00:26:45,781
Not the worst, not the best...
448
00:26:45,949 --> 00:26:48,243
...just what we're stuck with.
449
00:26:49,794 --> 00:26:51,671
Amen.
450
00:26:55,018 --> 00:26:57,181
-Where were we?
-Let me get back to it.
451
00:26:58,779 --> 00:27:01,274
-"This distinguished choice. "
-"Redoubtable choice. "
452
00:27:01,452 --> 00:27:02,998
Nobody knows what it means.
453
00:27:17,290 --> 00:27:22,008
Ryan Pierce.
Is Congressman Thiele in, please?
454
00:27:43,491 --> 00:27:45,321
I love this Chopin.
455
00:27:45,539 --> 00:27:48,545
Fooled with it myself, but could
never get the fingering down.
456
00:27:48,756 --> 00:27:52,345
The White House photographer's gonna
get some shots of them.
457
00:27:57,949 --> 00:27:59,281
Excuse me, Leo.
458
00:27:59,454 --> 00:28:03,126
We in the way?
You mind a minute? Please.
459
00:28:05,263 --> 00:28:07,591
So how's your day been?
460
00:28:10,611 --> 00:28:14,152
I'm sorry to say
I cannot let you defect.
461
00:28:14,372 --> 00:28:15,917
Do you understand me?
462
00:28:16,796 --> 00:28:19,172
You have to keep playing.
463
00:28:27,493 --> 00:28:30,999
There's an important nuclear agreement
being worked out.
464
00:28:31,212 --> 00:28:34,005
Do you understand my English?
465
00:28:41,910 --> 00:28:45,332
I try to stay...
466
00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:49,883
-...you arrest me?
-No.
467
00:28:54,153 --> 00:28:57,279
You give me back to them.
468
00:28:58,750 --> 00:29:00,877
No.
469
00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:04,882
Freedom means choice.
470
00:29:05,102 --> 00:29:09,357
You must decide which is
the most responsible course.
471
00:29:11,328 --> 00:29:16,248
You know Korean word, han?
472
00:29:16,426 --> 00:29:18,387
No.
473
00:29:21,482 --> 00:29:24,192
I could practice the fingering
for the rest of my life...
474
00:29:24,366 --> 00:29:27,122
...I'd never be able to play it like that.
475
00:29:29,003 --> 00:29:32,177
It is this... .
476
00:30:06,738 --> 00:30:10,410
Mr. President, I think we have
to cancel the concert.
477
00:30:10,582 --> 00:30:13,125
-No.
-You don't know if he understood you.
478
00:30:13,299 --> 00:30:16,174
His English is better than he lets on.
479
00:30:16,349 --> 00:30:19,688
You don't know if he understood
your English, much less your meaning.
480
00:30:19,859 --> 00:30:24,161
You're persuasive, but it helps talking
to someone who speaks the language.
481
00:30:24,372 --> 00:30:25,917
We're not canceling the concert.
482
00:30:26,085 --> 00:30:29,924
Sir, you're not positive
if he got it or not?
483
00:30:30,849 --> 00:30:33,689
-No.
-You need to come down with some flu.
484
00:30:33,858 --> 00:30:35,188
-Leo--
-Otherwise...
485
00:30:35,362 --> 00:30:38,869
...we're putting the fate of what is
the most significant agreement...
486
00:30:39,039 --> 00:30:41,714
...of this presidency in the hands
of a 23-year-old...
487
00:30:41,881 --> 00:30:44,293
...who may have only understood
every fifth word.
488
00:30:44,639 --> 00:30:48,061
We cancel the concert, it's a red flag.
489
00:30:48,233 --> 00:30:51,489
I told him freedom means choice.
490
00:30:51,659 --> 00:30:55,034
My choice is to trust in his decision.
491
00:30:58,053 --> 00:31:00,464
Get things ready in case
it goes the other way.
492
00:31:00,643 --> 00:31:02,806
Thank you, Mr. President.
493
00:31:11,383 --> 00:31:15,721
-It's a crapshoot.
-The negotiations are a crapshoot.
494
00:31:16,146 --> 00:31:18,856
Whole damn job's a crapshoot.
495
00:31:25,215 --> 00:31:28,304
-Tewes.-Aye.
496
00:31:29,394 --> 00:31:31,105
Thayer.
497
00:31:31,274 --> 00:31:32,854
Aye.
498
00:31:34,073 --> 00:31:37,116
-Thibodeaux.-Aye.
499
00:31:38,796 --> 00:31:40,507
Thiele.
500
00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:43,467
Aye.
501
00:31:44,729 --> 00:31:46,476
Valence.
502
00:31:47,821 --> 00:31:49,699
Aye.
503
00:31:50,830 --> 00:31:52,292
Horton.
504
00:31:52,919 --> 00:31:55,415
Josh, Dory Macklin from The Post
returning your call.
505
00:31:55,594 --> 00:31:58,137
Yeah. Tell her never mind.
506
00:32:09,593 --> 00:32:12,053
-Nice work on Thiele.
-Yeah.
507
00:32:12,226 --> 00:32:14,637
-How'd you get him to turn?
-I don't know, exactly.
508
00:32:14,816 --> 00:32:17,526
Margaret, I'm gonna need State again.
509
00:32:19,914 --> 00:32:21,875
-We have a vice president.
-About time.
510
00:32:22,045 --> 00:32:23,591
I may actually sleep tonight.
511
00:32:23,801 --> 00:32:25,762
-Probably not.
-Probably not.
512
00:32:25,931 --> 00:32:28,308
-See you in the Rose Garden.
-Okay.
513
00:32:28,982 --> 00:32:31,738
Good afternoon.
I wanna welcome you all.
514
00:32:31,907 --> 00:32:36,126
It's with surpassing pleasure and pride
that I announce that Congress...
515
00:32:36,294 --> 00:32:39,884
...just a short time ago,
voted to confirm Robert Russell...
516
00:32:40,055 --> 00:32:42,848
...as the new vice president
of these United States.
517
00:32:43,023 --> 00:32:47,242
Confirmed by unanimous vote,
as befits this redoubtable choice.
518
00:32:47,410 --> 00:32:49,074
In a triumph of... .
519
00:32:53,302 --> 00:32:55,631
In a triumph of the meritorious...
520
00:32:55,851 --> 00:32:57,812
...Bob Russell is someone I know...
521
00:32:58,024 --> 00:33:00,151
...trust and immeasurably respect...
522
00:33:00,323 --> 00:33:02,699
...over the past five years
of working together...
523
00:33:02,871 --> 00:33:05,664
...as have all of us here
at the White House.
524
00:33:05,838 --> 00:33:10,093
His estimable legislative record
is but one facet...
525
00:33:10,268 --> 00:33:12,810
...of his laudable public service
to his country.
526
00:33:13,025 --> 00:33:15,700
Service that now ascends
to an even loftier level...
527
00:33:15,867 --> 00:33:18,957
...as he assumes his new responsibilities
as vice president.
528
00:33:19,168 --> 00:33:21,212
Mr. Robert Russell.
529
00:33:25,019 --> 00:33:27,181
-I'm gonna get fired.
-Nobody's getting fired.
530
00:33:27,359 --> 00:33:29,070
I'm the new guy. I'll be an example.
531
00:33:29,239 --> 00:33:32,697
-They'll put my head on a pike.
-You're working out. Leo agrees.
532
00:33:32,875 --> 00:33:34,955
You're not gonna get fired.
533
00:33:41,191 --> 00:33:42,937
Gentlemen.
534
00:33:47,208 --> 00:33:49,964
-Mr. Vice President. Please accept--
-I'd like a copy.
535
00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:54,216
-There are none. We've shredded.
-Wiped hard drives.
536
00:33:54,395 --> 00:33:56,023
We're putting out our own eyes.
537
00:33:56,234 --> 00:33:58,195
Find one. Send it to my office.
538
00:33:58,449 --> 00:33:59,862
I thought it was hilarious.
539
00:34:02,460 --> 00:34:05,300
-Hilarious, sir?
-I know my public profile, my persona.
540
00:34:05,468 --> 00:34:09,604
I'm glad there's such a keen awareness
of the job you've all got ahead of you.
541
00:34:09,773 --> 00:34:12,945
I'm part of the team now,
which makes all this your problem.
542
00:34:13,157 --> 00:34:14,785
Good luck with it.
543
00:34:18,590 --> 00:34:20,421
Sometimes it happens that way.
544
00:34:20,637 --> 00:34:25,523
Delayed reaction. Obviously, my little
talk stayed with the good congressman.
545
00:34:25,694 --> 00:34:28,024
-Yeah.
-That's the reason you hammer hard.
546
00:34:28,201 --> 00:34:30,079
It's all they understand.
547
00:34:30,249 --> 00:34:33,755
That's not my personality. I'm more
of a "get more bees with honey" type.
548
00:34:33,926 --> 00:34:36,255
-You'll learn.
-Hey.
549
00:34:36,433 --> 00:34:37,847
Hey.
550
00:34:39,484 --> 00:34:40,981
So, what's the deal there?
551
00:34:41,155 --> 00:34:44,661
Boyfriend-girlfriend?
Friends with privileges?
552
00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:46,544
What?
553
00:34:46,922 --> 00:34:49,334
Something's going on.
554
00:34:52,438 --> 00:34:54,232
You like Chopin, Charlie?
555
00:34:54,402 --> 00:34:57,824
Am I gonna get the life history
of the guy and a shopping list?
556
00:34:57,995 --> 00:35:00,752
-You'll thank me.
-I thank you now. Could you hold off?
557
00:35:00,921 --> 00:35:04,130
I'm still working through the 14 disks
of Bach you made me buy.
558
00:35:04,849 --> 00:35:06,892
-The Well-Tempered Clavier?
-Both books.
559
00:35:07,064 --> 00:35:08,941
-You know what that means.
-You told me.
560
00:35:09,111 --> 00:35:11,356
Good. Listen...
561
00:35:12,161 --> 00:35:14,954
...I need you to research
something for me.
562
00:35:15,462 --> 00:35:17,792
Could you find out the price
of a gallon of milk?
563
00:35:18,012 --> 00:35:19,389
Two dollars and 69 cents.
564
00:35:19,976 --> 00:35:23,315
Two eighty-nine in Georgetown,
and 2.54 with a coupon from the paper.
565
00:35:26,202 --> 00:35:29,624
Will you make sure everybody
knows that tomorrow?
566
00:35:47,388 --> 00:35:49,218
Thank you for earlier.
567
00:35:49,436 --> 00:35:51,931
You were absolutely right.
They were perfectly nice.
568
00:35:52,151 --> 00:35:55,408
I meant when I went into that
whole diet/economics harangue.
569
00:35:56,497 --> 00:35:59,374
-Quite an oratorio.
-I was showing off. It was ridiculous...
570
00:35:59,549 --> 00:36:02,971
...and you didn't make fun of me,
and I appreciate it.
571
00:36:04,772 --> 00:36:07,731
The president made almost
the exact same point this afternoon.
572
00:36:07,947 --> 00:36:10,408
-Very funny.
-It's true, actually. It was uncanny.
573
00:36:10,622 --> 00:36:13,628
-Oh, my God.
-He left out the whole goofy diet part.
574
00:36:13,839 --> 00:36:16,632
-Don't blow it now.
-Perfectly nice people.
575
00:36:16,807 --> 00:36:18,470
For residents of the only state...
576
00:36:18,645 --> 00:36:22,733
...that consider rind one of
the four major food groups.
577
00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:09,702
Good, I didn't miss it.
578
00:37:10,252 --> 00:37:14,388
No. I think there might be
30 or 40 seconds left.
579
00:37:16,980 --> 00:37:18,810
You look great.
580
00:37:19,696 --> 00:37:21,776
Thanks. So do you.
581
00:37:22,036 --> 00:37:24,960
Everyone looks great in a tux.
Chimps look great.
582
00:37:26,717 --> 00:37:30,139
With none actually present,
I'll have to settle for you.
583
00:37:31,689 --> 00:37:34,862
So listen. Ryan...
584
00:37:35,408 --> 00:37:40,163
...of all people, asked me straight out
about our relationship...
585
00:37:40,548 --> 00:37:45,849
...and I couldn't have avoided
the subject more if I had faked a stroke.
586
00:37:46,064 --> 00:37:48,904
-Cheeky little brat.
-That's not the point.
587
00:37:49,114 --> 00:37:52,822
Even if I'd wanted to answer him,
I wouldn't have known what to say.
588
00:37:53,753 --> 00:37:56,296
It's like what C.J. said today
about the economy.
589
00:37:56,469 --> 00:38:00,688
By refusing to put language to it,
we're trying to pretend it doesn't exist.
590
00:38:00,856 --> 00:38:02,817
But it's something.
591
00:38:04,868 --> 00:38:07,198
Even if we don't know what to call it.
592
00:38:08,211 --> 00:38:11,753
I just think it's time to start thinking
about a language plan...
593
00:38:11,930 --> 00:38:14,140
...for whatever it is we're doing too.
594
00:39:00,528 --> 00:39:02,110
-Bravo!
-Bravo!
595
00:39:02,785 --> 00:39:04,746
Bravo!
596
00:39:12,396 --> 00:39:15,237
Ladies, gentlemen.
597
00:39:16,115 --> 00:39:17,613
I wish to... .
598
00:39:25,518 --> 00:39:27,763
I wish to...
599
00:39:38,430 --> 00:39:40,426
...thank...
600
00:39:41,188 --> 00:39:43,066
...the president...
601
00:39:43,570 --> 00:39:46,612
...the American people...
602
00:39:46,913 --> 00:39:49,242
...for this opportunity.
603
00:39:49,462 --> 00:39:52,254
I wish it be start...
604
00:39:52,471 --> 00:39:54,930
...many exchange...
605
00:39:55,103 --> 00:39:57,944
...improve relation...
606
00:39:58,947 --> 00:40:01,240
...between our country.
607
00:41:01,796 --> 00:41:04,637
He didn't realize what it was.
608
00:41:05,431 --> 00:41:07,178
What what was, sir?
609
00:41:07,939 --> 00:41:09,519
Freedom.
610
00:41:17,675 --> 00:41:20,218
You could've canceled the concert.
611
00:41:20,725 --> 00:41:24,184
There's a Korean word, han.
612
00:41:24,569 --> 00:41:26,364
I looked it up.
613
00:41:26,533 --> 00:41:30,076
There is no literal English translation.
614
00:41:30,252 --> 00:41:31,750
It's a state of mind.
615
00:41:31,925 --> 00:41:34,086
Of soul, really.
616
00:41:34,515 --> 00:41:36,262
A sadness.
617
00:41:37,190 --> 00:41:40,731
A sadness so deep no tears will come.
618
00:41:41,786 --> 00:41:45,244
And yet, still, there's hope.
619
00:41:48,388 --> 00:41:50,718
Good night, Mr. President.
620
00:41:52,567 --> 00:41:56,703
I got a call from Geneva 15 minutes ago.
621
00:41:57,039 --> 00:42:00,045
The negotiations are on hold.
622
00:42:00,883 --> 00:42:06,267
The North Koreans didn't like the size
of everyone's flags at the table.
623
00:42:13,837 --> 00:42:15,548
Good night, sir.51220
