1
00:00:06,822 --> 00:00:08,936
Previously on The West Wing:
2
00:00:09,106 --> 00:00:11,338
People shouldn't be
sending me flowers.
3
00:00:11,557 --> 00:00:14,037
-They're for Leo.
-So how's it going?
4
00:00:14,256 --> 00:00:17,115
-How'd you manage it for seven years?
-I had a heart attack.
5
00:00:17,330 --> 00:00:19,397
The president wants
a Security Council vote.
6
00:00:19,573 --> 00:00:21,852
We've lost three countries
in the last hour. . .
7
00:00:22,023 --> 00:00:24,551
. . .and our diplomatic heavies
are in the cardiac ward.
8
00:00:24,764 --> 00:00:26,584
-How do you get women?
-You trying to get fired?
9
00:00:26,883 --> 00:00:31,407
Work for me. You're smart, you know
the president. Why wouldn't I hire you?
10
00:00:31,576 --> 00:00:33,525
-Gonna ask about my kids?
-How are they?
11
00:00:33,694 --> 00:00:35,844
They don't recognize me.
"Who's hugging Mommy?"
12
00:00:36,062 --> 00:00:39,712
-I don't wanna be good at this.
-Don't worry. It was better.
13
00:00:39,883 --> 00:00:41,950
Good's still a ways off.
14
00:00:48,314 --> 00:00:51,303
Of course, the buildings were
vacant and in disrepair by then.
15
00:00:51,471 --> 00:00:53,337
I snuck my first cigarette here.
16
00:00:53,506 --> 00:00:55,987
You'll wanna add
a commemorative plaque.
17
00:00:56,164 --> 00:00:57,901
Congratulations on the library, sir.
18
00:00:58,075 --> 00:01:00,898
-Thanks for coming.
-Are you also celebrating today's polls?
19
00:01:01,065 --> 00:01:03,806
-I don't pay attention.
-In the wake of your peace plan. . .
20
00:01:03,973 --> 00:01:07,410
. . .57 percent of Americans say
they'd vote for you for a third term.
21
00:01:07,628 --> 00:01:10,818
Don't say that in front of an architect.
He'll extend his deadline.
22
00:01:10,992 --> 00:01:12,776
"Photos only" means photos only.
23
00:01:12,944 --> 00:01:15,472
Oh, for God's sake.
You're not still calling this guy.
24
00:01:15,644 --> 00:01:17,297
-Matt Santos.
-Is a quitter.
25
00:01:17,471 --> 00:01:19,503
We got him reelected twice
by huge margins.
26
00:01:19,673 --> 00:01:22,200
-He's popular in his district.
-Don't waste our time.
27
00:01:22,414 --> 00:01:24,647
He called me.
He wants to sit down tomorrow.
28
00:01:24,865 --> 00:01:28,975
You think he said, "I'm a guy with
an uncontested seat in Congress. . .
29
00:01:29,143 --> 00:01:31,210
. . .maybe I'll stop whining
and do my job"?
30
00:01:31,385 --> 00:01:32,708
I leaned on him pretty hard.
31
00:01:32,881 --> 00:01:34,912
But he's so persistent,
it's embarrassing.
32
00:01:35,082 --> 00:01:37,905
Enjoy the attention. It doesn't
have to turn into anything.
33
00:01:38,073 --> 00:01:40,305
-Always talking shop.
-Aren't you sweet.
34
00:01:40,523 --> 00:01:43,713
-I'm sorry. Did you--? Here.
-I don't drink red.
35
00:01:43,929 --> 00:01:45,298
-I knew that.
-You drink red.
36
00:01:45,466 --> 00:01:48,821
-I'll get you white. Margaret?
-I drink red. Or champagne's fine.
37
00:01:49,038 --> 00:01:50,774
-Thanks.
-Thank you for being here. . .
38
00:01:50,990 --> 00:01:54,557
. . .for the unveiling of these plans
for the Bartlet Presidential Library. . .
39
00:01:54,728 --> 00:01:56,629
. . .to be housed in a restored section. . .
40
00:01:56,804 --> 00:02:00,241
. . .of the historic Amoskeag Mills
in Manchester, New Hampshire.
41
00:02:00,418 --> 00:02:02,780
The secretary of agriculture
is in the Rose Room.
44
00:02:07,479 --> 00:02:09,132
Don't worry, your wallets are safe.
45
00:02:09,306 --> 00:02:11,255
The secretary of agriculture
is in the Rose Room.
46
00:02:11,466 --> 00:02:14,124
"The secretary of agriculture
is in the Rose Room"?
47
00:02:14,290 --> 00:02:16,606
There's no chance
the secretary's actually there?
48
00:02:16,782 --> 00:02:17,940
No.
49
00:02:18,112 --> 00:02:21,301
-Don't you take it--?
-As the president's aide, I went to him.
50
00:02:21,476 --> 00:02:25,787
As deputy special assistant, I alert C.J.
and clear it with you.
51
00:02:29,118 --> 00:02:32,308
-Sir, can I talk to you for a second?
-Sure.
52
00:02:36,262 --> 00:02:37,537
What are you getting?
53
00:02:37,716 --> 00:02:41,035
CNN's reporting an attack on our
peacekeepers' compound in Darom.
54
00:02:41,205 --> 00:02:43,815
-South of Gaza City.
-Eight injured and one dead.
55
00:02:43,987 --> 00:02:46,646
-The first casualty.
-I'm gonna work on a statement.
56
00:02:46,812 --> 00:02:49,552
The Joint Chiefs have CTAF
on the line.
57
00:02:49,927 --> 00:02:52,585
They didn't even let us get
the peacekeepers deployed.
58
00:02:52,751 --> 00:02:55,113
They were Army advance.
Construction crews.
59
00:02:55,492 --> 00:02:57,725
-Excuse me, sir. Toby.
-Yeah.
60
00:02:57,943 --> 00:03:01,888
In our statement, when we say
"casualty," don't say "first. "
61
00:03:50,602 --> 00:03:52,918
--who approached the Joint Task Force
compound...
62
00:03:53,095 --> 00:03:55,079
... with explosives strapped
to his chest...
63
00:03:55,255 --> 00:03:57,453
...leaving no doubt
that President Barlet's....
64
00:03:57,623 --> 00:04:00,410
Great. The White House fiddles
while Darom burns.
65
00:04:00,584 --> 00:04:02,293
Here's the president's statement.
66
00:04:02,503 --> 00:04:05,421
We have no details.
I'm hearing what you're hearing.
67
00:04:06,049 --> 00:04:09,548
While the White House struggles with
the response to this act of terror--
68
00:04:09,719 --> 00:04:11,712
He uses that.
He doesn't use our statement.
69
00:04:11,888 --> 00:04:14,379
I like how you leaned
on the podium. More engaged.
70
00:04:14,558 --> 00:04:16,550
I referred them
to the Pentagon 10 times.
71
00:04:16,727 --> 00:04:19,052
It'll be 50 times today.
A wise man once said:
72
00:04:19,229 --> 00:04:21,388
"Stone walls are built
one stone at a time. "
73
00:04:21,607 --> 00:04:23,730
I was hiding behind my desk
when I said that.
74
00:04:23,901 --> 00:04:27,187
Stonewalling won't work with a peace
plan at stake and U.S. lives. . .
75
00:04:27,363 --> 00:04:28,988
-One life.
-. . .on the line.
76
00:04:29,157 --> 00:04:32,158
-Don't give this momentum.
-"We're faced with the tough work. . .
77
00:04:32,327 --> 00:04:35,530
-. . .of making peace. "
-Not yet. See if events force us there.
78
00:04:35,747 --> 00:04:37,823
Did the Pentagon release
the soldier's name?
79
00:04:37,999 --> 00:04:40,835
-They have to notify next of kin.
-It takes 15 hours?
80
00:04:41,003 --> 00:04:43,838
They told the soldier's father.
The parents are divorced.
81
00:04:44,006 --> 00:04:47,126
-They haven't located Mom.
-We stick with "pending notification"?
82
00:04:47,301 --> 00:04:49,377
Stick with no.
Say "pending notification" . . .
83
00:04:49,553 --> 00:04:51,463
. . .they'll drag you into
questions about:
84
00:04:51,639 --> 00:04:54,344
"Why can't the Army
improve services to dependents?"
85
00:04:54,517 --> 00:04:56,177
Right. Makes sense.
86
00:04:56,728 --> 00:04:58,720
"I'm hearing what you're hearing,"
Toby?
87
00:04:59,230 --> 00:05:03,394
-C.J. and I just did this.
-Least your forehead wasn't as shiny.
88
00:05:05,696 --> 00:05:09,231
-So, what's up, congressman?
-My bill died in committee.
89
00:05:09,742 --> 00:05:11,070
Patients' Bill of Rights?
90
00:05:11,243 --> 00:05:13,283
Common sense, common good
kind of thing. . .
91
00:05:13,454 --> 00:05:15,447
. . .that failed to get the votes
six times.
92
00:05:15,623 --> 00:05:18,410
On the positive side,
you've almost passed it so often. . .
93
00:05:18,584 --> 00:05:22,036
-. . .people think it's a law.
-Till somebody needs their HMO.
94
00:05:22,255 --> 00:05:26,205
-Senate eked out a version.
-Sorry to disappoint the president. . .
95
00:05:26,384 --> 00:05:29,551
-. . .but my House bill's DOA.
-Oh, we appreciate all your work.
96
00:05:29,721 --> 00:05:31,714
So I'm signing on to Strickman's bill.
97
00:05:32,474 --> 00:05:35,428
-Strickman's a Republican.
-He mentioned something about that.
98
00:05:35,602 --> 00:05:37,761
Strickman calls it
Patients' Bill of Rights. . .
99
00:05:37,938 --> 00:05:40,726
. . .because it's better than
Love Letter to Insurance.
100
00:05:40,900 --> 00:05:43,106
-Patients can't sue.
-A million-five cap.
101
00:05:43,277 --> 00:05:46,729
Your kid loses his legs after
your health plan denies treatment?
102
00:05:46,906 --> 00:05:48,365
Your kid dies?
103
00:05:48,533 --> 00:05:51,202
-You can't take them to court.
-It's a bad bill.
104
00:05:51,870 --> 00:05:53,863
So why dignify it
by making it bipartisan?
105
00:05:54,039 --> 00:05:57,455
I wouldn't do it if I thought
I could tip the balance. . .
106
00:05:57,626 --> 00:05:59,500
. . .but Strickman
can't get enough votes.
107
00:05:59,670 --> 00:06:02,422
Strickman's an old hand.
He's got something up his sleeve.
108
00:06:02,590 --> 00:06:06,634
When I came to the Hill, you couldn't get
agreement on the right to the closest ER.
109
00:06:06,844 --> 00:06:09,514
You couldn't negotiate
a woman's right to ob-gyns. . .
110
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:11,804
. . .or a kid's right to pediatricians.
111
00:06:11,975 --> 00:06:15,723
Forget about liability. You couldn't
find support for a right to arbitration.
112
00:06:15,937 --> 00:06:17,396
That's all common ground now.
113
00:06:17,606 --> 00:06:19,848
I want to keep these parties
talking, Josh.
114
00:06:20,025 --> 00:06:24,189
So this is basically all warm-up
to announcing that you're gonna run.
115
00:06:24,404 --> 00:06:26,397
-No.
-This isn't some convoluted. . .
116
00:06:26,573 --> 00:06:30,358
. . .legislative way I haven't figured
out yet of asking for a favor?
117
00:06:30,578 --> 00:06:33,069
Well, I wouldn't mind
if you let me keep my huevos. . .
118
00:06:33,247 --> 00:06:36,035
. . .when you eviscerate me in public
for breaking ranks.
119
00:06:36,250 --> 00:06:39,454
You're a deserter.
You can have them back at the airport.
120
00:06:41,214 --> 00:06:44,215
Fifty-seven, 58, 59.
You don't need to tag along.
121
00:06:44,384 --> 00:06:46,626
-It's my office.
-Probably it's not.
122
00:06:46,803 --> 00:06:48,595
Seventy. The basement?
123
00:06:48,764 --> 00:06:50,803
-I'd be fine down here.
-Eighty.
124
00:06:50,974 --> 00:06:53,810
You're deputy special assistant
to the chief of staff now.
125
00:06:53,978 --> 00:06:56,267
So are five other guys.
I'll crowd in with them.
126
00:06:56,439 --> 00:06:59,475
They're not special deputy special
assistants. You're special.
127
00:06:59,650 --> 00:07:02,058
-Honestly, I'd--
-Okay, no.
128
00:07:02,236 --> 00:07:04,276
It's outside the zone.
129
00:07:04,447 --> 00:07:08,030
-There's a zone?
-Less than 100 steps from C.J.'s office.
130
00:07:08,201 --> 00:07:12,413
-I could run when she calls.
-Deputy special assistants don't run.
131
00:07:12,623 --> 00:07:16,952
The first peacekeeper has been killed
in the U.S. mission to the Middle East.
132
00:07:17,127 --> 00:07:18,705
Sources confirmed this morning...
133
00:07:18,879 --> 00:07:22,414
... the death of at least
one American soldier in Kfar Darom...
134
00:07:22,592 --> 00:07:24,715
... where JTF forces
were preparing the way...
135
00:07:24,886 --> 00:07:28,551
...for 18,000 American
peacekeepers later this month.
136
00:07:28,723 --> 00:07:32,638
The suicide bomber approached the
Joint Task Force compound last night--
137
00:07:32,811 --> 00:07:34,934
-What are you doing?
-I dropped a cuff link--
138
00:07:35,105 --> 00:07:38,770
-This is when you call me.
-Want me yelling "nurse" all the time?
139
00:07:38,942 --> 00:07:41,564
Don't yell "nurse" at all.
Do I call you "patient"?
140
00:07:41,737 --> 00:07:44,310
I yell, "Miss Chakrabarty,
I'll need another bypass. "
141
00:07:44,490 --> 00:07:45,770
You didn't eat one bite.
142
00:07:45,950 --> 00:07:48,073
-I'm not hungry.
-Sit.
143
00:07:48,786 --> 00:07:51,990
-Why you need a tie and jacket?
-What would you recommend?
144
00:07:52,165 --> 00:07:55,581
When Gandhi went to London to meet
the king, he wore only a dhoti.
145
00:07:55,752 --> 00:07:59,501
The reporter asked, "Aren't you ashamed
to wear so little?" Gandhi said, "No. "
146
00:07:59,673 --> 00:08:02,164
"The king will be wearing
enough for both of us. "
147
00:08:02,342 --> 00:08:06,257
One difference between the Mahatma
and myself. I warn you, there are others.
148
00:08:06,472 --> 00:08:10,422
You may browbeat me into
using the breath spirometer.
149
00:08:10,601 --> 00:08:12,926
You may mother me
about wound care.
150
00:08:13,104 --> 00:08:16,224
You may dole out the Vicodin
like my AA sponsor.
151
00:08:16,441 --> 00:08:19,062
You may even entertain me
with nutrition lectures.
152
00:08:19,235 --> 00:08:20,777
-You need to eat.
-You may not. . .
153
00:08:20,945 --> 00:08:23,733
. . .may not offer fashion advice.
154
00:08:23,907 --> 00:08:26,279
-Shall I come with you?
-You shall not.
155
00:08:26,451 --> 00:08:28,159
Then I'll time you.
156
00:08:28,328 --> 00:08:30,950
Splendid. Set your watch.
157
00:08:31,915 --> 00:08:33,825
You've been doing 10 minutes.
Try for 12.
158
00:08:34,001 --> 00:08:37,619
Two more minutes on my own.
I'll give it my all.
159
00:09:07,996 --> 00:09:11,365
Among the wounded, two peacekeepers
remain in critical condition...
160
00:09:11,541 --> 00:09:13,949
...at Landstuhl Regional
Medical Center in Germany.
161
00:09:14,127 --> 00:09:17,792
Several soldiers are expected to return
to Walter Reed Army Medical Center...
162
00:09:17,965 --> 00:09:19,874
...in Washington, D. C.
later this week...
163
00:09:20,050 --> 00:09:22,755
... where they will be reunited
with their families.
164
00:09:25,598 --> 00:09:28,053
-Need something?
-I'm just. . .
165
00:09:28,225 --> 00:09:30,633
. . .Iooking for the breakdown
on the markup.
166
00:09:30,812 --> 00:09:32,638
-You're getting good on those.
-Thanks.
167
00:09:32,814 --> 00:09:35,601
-Is that a new cast?
-Two weeks ago.
168
00:09:36,317 --> 00:09:38,559
Those are nice flowers.
169
00:09:39,154 --> 00:09:42,357
But come on.
"I'm not going anywhere"?
170
00:09:42,532 --> 00:09:45,403
-From a photojournalist?
-You read my card?
171
00:09:45,577 --> 00:09:48,697
-I'm watching Blarney boy.
-The flowers aren't from Colin.
172
00:09:48,872 --> 00:09:51,446
Why are you reading my card
on my flowers on my desk?
173
00:09:51,625 --> 00:09:53,618
-I thought they were for me.
-Got a minute?
174
00:09:53,794 --> 00:09:55,075
Sure.
175
00:09:57,256 --> 00:10:01,005
You have seen the vice president's
schedule for the last four months, right?
176
00:10:01,177 --> 00:10:04,629
It hasn't somehow eluded you that
he's top-heavy on toasts at the AMA. . .
177
00:10:04,806 --> 00:10:07,178
. . .keynotes to the Association
of Trial Lawyers. . .
178
00:10:07,350 --> 00:10:11,514
. . .potlucks with the JDF
and picnics with the NAMI?
179
00:10:11,730 --> 00:10:14,056
-I know.
-You don't need me articulating subtext.
180
00:10:14,233 --> 00:10:16,107
-I should've called.
-Damn straight.
181
00:10:16,277 --> 00:10:18,815
The VP's been positioning himself
on patients' rights.
182
00:10:18,988 --> 00:10:22,772
He's been up to his elbows in it. By
Iowa, he'll smell like patients' rights. . .
183
00:10:22,950 --> 00:10:24,445
. . .unless it evaporates.
184
00:10:24,661 --> 00:10:27,330
-It's not going to.
-The Senate passed a bill last week.
185
00:10:27,497 --> 00:10:30,783
Now the House has a bipartisan
effort graced by Matthew Santos. . .
186
00:10:30,959 --> 00:10:34,660
. . .and all that elicits from the
White House is a bland statement.
187
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,169
I thought this was Toby.
I expect this from him.
188
00:10:37,341 --> 00:10:39,630
I draw comfort
in the predictability of it.
189
00:10:39,843 --> 00:10:43,509
It was me. I can toughen it up. But the
vice president doesn't have to worry.
190
00:10:43,723 --> 00:10:45,632
-Strickman has no support.
-He's no fool.
191
00:10:45,808 --> 00:10:48,762
-The Republicans might run with it.
-I spoke to Santos.
192
00:10:48,978 --> 00:10:50,638
He's gonna keep it on a low flame.
193
00:10:50,813 --> 00:10:53,518
Patients' rights will be alive
as a campaign issue. . .
194
00:10:53,692 --> 00:10:56,479
. . .for the vice president.
I promise.
195
00:10:56,987 --> 00:10:58,267
Yeah.
196
00:10:59,114 --> 00:11:02,068
Yes, Madame Prime Minister,
it is a tragic loss.
197
00:11:02,242 --> 00:11:03,902
But I wouldn't call it a harbinger.
198
00:11:04,078 --> 00:11:07,328
Our troops responded swiftly
to correct the vulnerability.
199
00:11:07,498 --> 00:11:10,499
I'm not taking my cues
from your cable broadcasts.
200
00:11:10,668 --> 00:11:12,910
-That's a relief.
-But I am concerned...
201
00:11:13,087 --> 00:11:16,124
...about deploying more peacekeepers
without a secured base.
202
00:11:16,299 --> 00:11:18,007
And I am too.
203
00:11:18,176 --> 00:11:22,838
We have installed more anti-RPGs,
and we're enlarging the control area.
204
00:11:23,056 --> 00:11:26,307
But I can assure you, our confidence
in the mission has not altered.
205
00:11:26,518 --> 00:11:28,476
You still expect full deployment by... ?
206
00:11:28,687 --> 00:11:31,724
March. General Danzig at UCOM
will confirm the timetable. . .
207
00:11:31,899 --> 00:11:34,188
. . .and security measures
with General Whitehead.
208
00:11:34,402 --> 00:11:36,975
-I see no problems on our end.
-That's good news.
209
00:11:37,196 --> 00:11:39,272
-My best to Reggie.
-And mine to Abigail.
210
00:11:39,449 --> 00:11:40,943
Thank you.
211
00:11:41,701 --> 00:11:43,361
-That was brisk.
-Which is good.
212
00:11:43,536 --> 00:11:45,114
When she mulls, it's trouble.
213
00:11:45,288 --> 00:11:47,614
Have we contacted
the soldier's family yet?
214
00:11:47,791 --> 00:11:49,997
Just the father, sir.
I'll get him for you now.
215
00:11:50,210 --> 00:11:52,119
-Thank you.
-The Palestinian Authority. . .
216
00:11:52,296 --> 00:11:54,585
. . .uncovered a stockpile
of explosives today.
217
00:11:54,757 --> 00:11:57,509
-The good news is--
-That they actually told us about it?
218
00:11:58,844 --> 00:12:01,632
One day at a time. That's how
we're gonna make this work.
219
00:12:01,806 --> 00:12:03,348
What else?
220
00:12:03,599 --> 00:12:06,766
You think this is a result of
the hasty way this was put together?
221
00:12:06,936 --> 00:12:09,427
Absolutely.
Two thousand troops....
222
00:12:10,231 --> 00:12:12,438
I hate these calls.
223
00:12:13,151 --> 00:12:17,066
-You want me to. . .?
-You don't work here anymore.
224
00:12:27,542 --> 00:12:30,709
Hello, Mr. Godfrey?
I'm calling from the White House.
225
00:12:30,878 --> 00:12:33,998
I'm sorry to bother your family
at this difficult time. . .
226
00:12:34,174 --> 00:12:36,463
. . .but I have President Bartlet
calling for you.
227
00:12:36,635 --> 00:12:39,505
-May I put him on?
-No, you may not.
228
00:12:39,680 --> 00:12:43,298
-I have no interest--
-I under-- Sir. I'm sorry--
229
00:12:45,519 --> 00:12:47,512
Yes, sir. I unders--
230
00:12:49,523 --> 00:12:51,646
Of course, it's your--
231
00:12:52,109 --> 00:12:55,728
-And you can tell Bartlet I said so.
-I will.
232
00:12:56,281 --> 00:12:59,780
And if you'd like,
I can arrange for you--
233
00:13:08,794 --> 00:13:11,546
-Is he on?
-Not exactly.
234
00:13:22,684 --> 00:13:26,219
Either I'm getting used to these
meetings, or that wasn't all bad news.
235
00:13:26,396 --> 00:13:29,397
Thirty-six hours, and no secondary
attacks on our peacekeepers.
236
00:13:29,566 --> 00:13:31,855
Did a chaplain contact
Godfrey's father yet?
237
00:13:32,027 --> 00:13:35,064
Yes, ma'am. A chaplain joined
the casualty assistance officer. . .
238
00:13:35,239 --> 00:13:36,947
. . .at the family home last night.
239
00:13:37,116 --> 00:13:39,322
Of course, the father
still may speak out.
240
00:13:39,493 --> 00:13:41,071
That's his prerogative.
241
00:13:41,245 --> 00:13:44,116
I have a question about
your troop depletion estimate. . .
242
00:13:44,290 --> 00:13:48,288
-. . .or rather, lack of estimate.
-Force depletion.
243
00:13:48,837 --> 00:13:50,995
-We call it force depletion.
-But I'm correct.
244
00:13:51,172 --> 00:13:54,707
This is the estimate of how many troops
we expect to lose in the mission?
245
00:13:54,885 --> 00:13:57,802
-We don't break it out that way.
-Is that why the estimate. . .
246
00:13:57,971 --> 00:13:59,763
-. . .is left blank here?
-No, ma'am.
247
00:13:59,932 --> 00:14:03,135
Leo liked us to leave out our number
until he got the NSA estimate.
248
00:14:03,310 --> 00:14:05,802
That way the projections
were decided independently.
249
00:14:05,980 --> 00:14:07,973
But you would share
your estimate with Leo.
250
00:14:08,149 --> 00:14:10,438
-When he asked.
-I'm asking.
251
00:14:10,652 --> 00:14:13,273
How much of our force may be
depleted in JTF Palestine?
252
00:14:13,446 --> 00:14:15,190
All due respect, that's complex.
253
00:14:15,573 --> 00:14:18,575
Based on past Israeli losses,
previous peacekeeping missions. . .
254
00:14:18,743 --> 00:14:22,611
. . .we're prepared to respond to
1 percent depletion over 12 months.
255
00:14:22,831 --> 00:14:25,405
-Up to 200 soldiers.
-Well, this isn't a body count.
256
00:14:25,584 --> 00:14:28,419
The 1 percent includes
the entire military force strength.
257
00:14:28,587 --> 00:14:31,505
-Munitions, structures, aircraft.
-And troops?
258
00:14:31,674 --> 00:14:34,924
If you're concerned about the
Dover Test, it's too early to worry.
259
00:14:35,094 --> 00:14:37,004
The Dover Test?
260
00:14:37,222 --> 00:14:40,757
Erosion of public support based
on arrival of coffins at our air base.
261
00:14:40,934 --> 00:14:44,268
I wanted to understand projections.
The Dover Test wasn't my concern.
262
00:14:44,438 --> 00:14:46,430
But would you excuse me,
commander?
263
00:14:46,607 --> 00:14:48,765
Margaret, has the press briefing
started yet?
264
00:14:49,526 --> 00:14:53,061
The Pentagon has not released
the soldier's name. That's all I have.
265
00:14:53,239 --> 00:14:56,442
You can't comment on whether
there's a problem identifying remains?
266
00:14:56,659 --> 00:14:58,486
-I can't. Chris.
-Good toss.
267
00:14:58,703 --> 00:15:01,111
-There are 1000 troops there.
-Peacekeepers, 1100.
268
00:15:01,289 --> 00:15:03,780
It's hard to believe the Pentagon
can't ID the casualty.
269
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:07,416
That's Mr. Sligh's speculation.
Get a comment from his network.
270
00:15:07,587 --> 00:15:10,375
-Now, hold on. I get to defend myself.
-No, you don't.
271
00:15:10,549 --> 00:15:14,547
-I'm forced to speculate because--
-Was Toby briefed on Dover policy?
272
00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:17,472
-Said he didn't need to be.
-Go to the Pentagon for that.
273
00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:20,345
There's no stalling to delay
putting a face on this loss?
274
00:15:20,559 --> 00:15:22,184
-Absolutely not.
-Quick follow-up.
275
00:15:22,395 --> 00:15:23,723
-Move on.
-I have to move on.
276
00:15:23,896 --> 00:15:26,732
To confirm: If the president
is not pulling the curtain. . .
277
00:15:26,899 --> 00:15:30,351
. . .over the cost of his peace plan,
why are the press being kept away. . .
278
00:15:30,528 --> 00:15:34,313
. . .from this slain soldier's homecoming
at Dover Air Base tomorrow?
279
00:15:34,491 --> 00:15:37,990
The Dover mortuary has restricted
press coverage for the last 13 years.
280
00:15:38,161 --> 00:15:40,997
The DOD suspended access
during the previous administration.
281
00:15:41,206 --> 00:15:44,457
Which this administration has ignored.
Why the sudden clampdown?
282
00:15:44,627 --> 00:15:47,794
It's not sudden.
We issued a directive six months ago.
283
00:15:48,005 --> 00:15:49,381
-No, no.
-Your 11:00 is here.
284
00:15:49,549 --> 00:15:52,799
Six months ago, the decision was
made to deny press access to Dover?
285
00:15:53,011 --> 00:15:55,502
-Why the change?
-A request came from the Pentagon. . .
286
00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:59,263
. . .based on families' concerns.
Historically, the events were not public.
287
00:15:59,476 --> 00:16:02,228
They had evolved into media events. . .
288
00:16:02,521 --> 00:16:04,846
. . .that competed with
official memorial services.
289
00:16:05,065 --> 00:16:07,521
Why wasn't the policy change
announced publicly?
290
00:16:07,693 --> 00:16:10,528
It wasn't a change. It adhered
to a policy already in place.
291
00:16:10,738 --> 00:16:12,731
But the administration
altered its stance.
292
00:16:12,907 --> 00:16:14,947
-Was an announcement discussed?
-Of course.
293
00:16:15,118 --> 00:16:16,493
-You were in the room?
-I was.
294
00:16:16,703 --> 00:16:20,154
By burying this in a directive,
it looks like you had something to hide.
295
00:16:20,331 --> 00:16:22,787
Nothing was buried. Some people. . .
296
00:16:22,959 --> 00:16:25,367
-. . .argued to announce a change.
-That would be me.
297
00:16:25,545 --> 00:16:28,297
-Because it was seen as controversial.
-Wrap it up. Adios.
298
00:16:30,175 --> 00:16:33,627
Look, the Dover closing was. . . .
299
00:16:33,804 --> 00:16:36,011
Wasn't taken lightly.
300
00:16:37,099 --> 00:16:40,469
I, and others, weighed in. Ultimately,
it was the way we decided to go.
301
00:16:40,645 --> 00:16:44,394
So you believe the press should
have continued access to the air base?
302
00:16:44,566 --> 00:16:47,436
I appreciate the Pentagon's need
for a precedent.
303
00:16:47,611 --> 00:16:51,276
Why? Why worry about precedent
unless you expect a growing body count?
304
00:16:51,490 --> 00:16:54,407
-Shut it down.
-Is that what's expected? More coffins?
305
00:16:55,452 --> 00:16:57,741
The number of coffins isn't. . . .
306
00:16:59,123 --> 00:17:00,582
Each life matters.
307
00:17:00,750 --> 00:17:03,288
Whether it's one or 100,
access should be consistent.
308
00:17:07,173 --> 00:17:09,664
-You want him in your office?
-Oh, yeah.
309
00:17:10,385 --> 00:17:12,009
Stop.
310
00:17:12,429 --> 00:17:14,338
I am not.
311
00:17:14,514 --> 00:17:17,266
Because you're pressuring me.
312
00:17:17,809 --> 00:17:19,849
I have work to do.
313
00:17:20,020 --> 00:17:21,514
No, l--
314
00:17:21,689 --> 00:17:23,681
I said I would sleep on it.
315
00:17:23,857 --> 00:17:26,728
But I did, and it's just not
how I do things. It's not--
316
00:17:26,902 --> 00:17:29,358
No means no. Leave her alone.
317
00:17:31,115 --> 00:17:35,065
Who is this jerk, some slacker from
physical therapy? I'll kick his ass.
318
00:17:35,578 --> 00:17:37,701
You know, you could thank me
for my chivalry.
319
00:17:58,061 --> 00:17:59,638
Toby. . .
320
00:17:59,938 --> 00:18:02,808
. . .how's that search for
a press secretary coming?
321
00:18:02,983 --> 00:18:06,601
-I got rattled, said more than I meant.
-We were both there six months ago.
322
00:18:06,778 --> 00:18:10,278
You didn't like closing Dover. You
couldn't resist voicing your opinion.
323
00:18:10,449 --> 00:18:12,406
Exactly what I predicted.
324
00:18:12,576 --> 00:18:15,114
We look like we're hiding casualties.
325
00:18:15,287 --> 00:18:18,205
I don't care about your insights,
brilliant as they may be.
326
00:18:18,374 --> 00:18:20,117
-The decision was wrong.
-We settled.
327
00:18:20,418 --> 00:18:23,668
-I buried my opinions out there.
-What were you doing back there?
328
00:18:23,838 --> 00:18:27,788
-Don't you have a White House to run?
-The briefing room is not your pulpit.
329
00:18:28,176 --> 00:18:30,335
-I got rattled.
-You did. Your ambivalence. . .
330
00:18:30,512 --> 00:18:33,846
. . .toward a policy came out. You had
ambivalence toward the peace--
331
00:18:34,057 --> 00:18:37,391
-Are you questioning my loyalty?
-I am questioning your self-control.
332
00:18:37,561 --> 00:18:42,900
If you can't stick to our message,
I don't want you out there again.
333
00:18:53,411 --> 00:18:56,615
-It is close to C.J.
-The president won't like it.
334
00:18:56,790 --> 00:18:58,699
On the other hand, he won't know.
335
00:18:58,875 --> 00:19:02,410
-It is a storage area.
-That might be an exaggeration.
336
00:19:02,588 --> 00:19:06,039
-We can't do better?
-Yeah. It's a no.
337
00:19:06,217 --> 00:19:08,886
Two more Democrats have jumped
on Strickman's bill.
338
00:19:09,053 --> 00:19:11,675
Then they'll have enough votes
to pass the thing. . .
339
00:19:11,848 --> 00:19:13,840
. . .midway through Russell's first term.
340
00:19:14,017 --> 00:19:17,552
-Horwitz and Chambers came on.
-Chambers is a pain in the ass.
341
00:19:17,729 --> 00:19:21,597
Yeah, I called him and told him that. He
said he was lobbied hard by your man.
342
00:19:21,775 --> 00:19:23,898
-Santos is out whipping votes.
-No.
343
00:19:24,069 --> 00:19:28,530
Chambers thinks Santos is all about
the meteoric rise, centerfold in Roll Call.
344
00:19:28,699 --> 00:19:30,941
Santos has one foot out the door.
345
00:19:32,203 --> 00:19:33,994
-He's whipping votes?
-And I misspoke.
346
00:19:34,163 --> 00:19:37,746
It's not Strickman's bill anymore.
It's the Strickman-Santos bill.
347
00:19:37,917 --> 00:19:40,242
Donna, get Congressman Santos
on the phone.
348
00:19:41,671 --> 00:19:43,130
No.
349
00:19:43,506 --> 00:19:45,049
Tell him I'm on my way.
350
00:19:45,217 --> 00:19:47,209
-I'll set him straight.
-I'll back you up.
351
00:19:50,556 --> 00:19:52,216
Excuse me.
352
00:19:56,270 --> 00:19:57,848
Leo?
353
00:19:58,564 --> 00:20:00,889
Otis. I haven't seen you lately.
354
00:20:01,067 --> 00:20:03,558
I thought maybe you
upgraded to the Ritz.
355
00:20:03,778 --> 00:20:05,569
These days,
it's mostly The Oriental.
356
00:20:05,738 --> 00:20:08,740
That's right, Bangkok.
I knew you wouldn't stay retired.
357
00:20:09,159 --> 00:20:12,445
Sorry to hear--
Well, you look great, though.
358
00:20:13,497 --> 00:20:16,367
I never figured you for sainthood. . .
359
00:20:16,542 --> 00:20:20,374
-. . .but deputy director of the WTO.
-Keep it down. We'll have protesters.
360
00:20:20,546 --> 00:20:22,871
My son was mortified
by my career at CultiCo.
361
00:20:23,049 --> 00:20:24,591
-I remember.
-Now my grandson. . .
362
00:20:24,759 --> 00:20:26,751
. . .has this WTO connection
to live down.
363
00:20:26,969 --> 00:20:28,380
-Thankless.
-Oh, God.
364
00:20:28,554 --> 00:20:30,761
Hey, did you hear from Phil?
365
00:20:31,099 --> 00:20:34,100
-He's starting in again?
-It's what I'd do if I were still CEO.
366
00:20:34,269 --> 00:20:38,018
If you don't go back to the White House,
CultiCo would put you on their board.
367
00:20:38,190 --> 00:20:41,107
-Yeah. Yeah.
-There's great things happening.
368
00:20:41,318 --> 00:20:45,316
It's not just petrochemicals anymore.
And the pressure's not so--
369
00:20:46,365 --> 00:20:49,734
Not to interrupt. I got worried.
370
00:21:07,095 --> 00:21:09,302
Congressman Santos' office.
371
00:21:13,185 --> 00:21:14,977
Wanna see if they have any magazines?
372
00:21:15,146 --> 00:21:17,684
-You don't have to wait.
-I'm fine.
373
00:21:18,316 --> 00:21:21,068
-I'm really sorry, Mr. Lyman.
-Does he know we're waiting?
374
00:21:21,236 --> 00:21:23,442
-He'll call when he's free.
-Is he here?
375
00:21:23,613 --> 00:21:26,021
He's tied up. Excuse me.
376
00:21:26,366 --> 00:21:28,275
Congressman Santos' office.
377
00:21:28,452 --> 00:21:31,369
Mr. Vacarro, let me see if I can get him.
378
00:21:31,580 --> 00:21:33,454
Is he putting that through?
379
00:21:34,166 --> 00:21:35,910
Is that call going through?
380
00:21:38,045 --> 00:21:39,954
I'd say yes.
381
00:21:40,506 --> 00:21:42,298
Doesn't a Vacarro run Metson Health?
382
00:21:42,508 --> 00:21:44,999
The Metson Health that's
looking for a new chairman?
383
00:21:45,178 --> 00:21:49,176
What do you wanna bet our guy's up in
Strickman's conference room right now?
384
00:21:49,724 --> 00:21:51,598
One way to find out.
385
00:21:56,273 --> 00:21:57,851
Congressman?
386
00:21:59,860 --> 00:22:01,853
I'm sorry. I couldn't break free.
387
00:22:02,029 --> 00:22:03,607
-This is Will Bailey.
-Hi.
388
00:22:03,781 --> 00:22:07,482
This isn't a good time right now, Josh.
I'm gonna call you tomorrow.
389
00:22:07,827 --> 00:22:10,828
Hey, congressman, hold up.
390
00:22:12,290 --> 00:22:14,449
-What's going on?
-I'm busy right now.
391
00:22:14,626 --> 00:22:16,665
Whipping votes for a bill?
392
00:22:16,836 --> 00:22:19,209
-This isn't what we talked about.
-It's what I do.
393
00:22:19,381 --> 00:22:24,127
-What, sell out your president?
-This isn't about the president.
394
00:22:24,303 --> 00:22:26,841
The president doesn't want
a bill with no regulations.
395
00:22:27,014 --> 00:22:30,679
If patients can't sue their insurers,
even when there's outright negligence--
396
00:22:30,893 --> 00:22:32,933
A million-five cap
is a foot in the door--
397
00:22:33,146 --> 00:22:35,304
A million-five cap
isn't a pinkie in the dam.
398
00:22:35,523 --> 00:22:39,438
Have you seen the costs of catastrophic
illness? Metson could give you a peek.
399
00:22:39,652 --> 00:22:42,689
-Slow down.
-He slows down, you'll ram this through.
400
00:22:42,906 --> 00:22:45,658
It's not this bill you don't want.
It's any bill.
401
00:22:45,826 --> 00:22:48,447
You'd let sick Americans suffer
to help your candidate.
402
00:22:48,620 --> 00:22:50,827
This from a guy who's bailing
on constituents.
403
00:22:50,998 --> 00:22:54,533
Some of us are in this for the long haul.
We'll govern after you're gone.
404
00:22:54,710 --> 00:22:56,086
Gentlemen, this is governing.
405
00:22:56,254 --> 00:23:01,046
This is getting your r�sum� seen,
making pals in the private sector.
406
00:23:01,384 --> 00:23:04,634
-What do you think I'm doing?
-You'd settle for less on this bill. . .
407
00:23:04,804 --> 00:23:07,342
-. . .to set up your next career move.
-Settle for less.
408
00:23:07,557 --> 00:23:11,009
This is from the guys that are
running Bob Russell for president?
409
00:23:15,524 --> 00:23:17,564
I'm sorry, gentlemen.
410
00:23:24,242 --> 00:23:26,448
Yeah, it came today.
411
00:23:28,079 --> 00:23:30,405
You make quite a tag team.
412
00:23:31,374 --> 00:23:34,044
But if you're on a deadline. . . .
413
00:23:36,588 --> 00:23:38,213
Fair enough.
414
00:23:38,382 --> 00:23:43,258
I won't-- I won't make a decision
without giving you that chance.
415
00:23:43,971 --> 00:23:45,465
Yeah.
416
00:23:47,016 --> 00:23:48,724
You too.
417
00:23:50,144 --> 00:23:53,311
-Don't you have a thing tonight?
-A wedding.
418
00:23:53,481 --> 00:23:56,850
When my family asks why I missed
the puja, I'll say, "I couldn't leave.
419
00:23:57,027 --> 00:23:59,732
-My patient refused to eat. "
-I'll eat later.
420
00:23:59,905 --> 00:24:03,488
-You're taking a job?
-Not without consulting you.
421
00:24:03,700 --> 00:24:06,867
-It's not wise.
-You'd like me under your thumb forever.
422
00:24:07,037 --> 00:24:09,410
Yes, my dream is to stay here
watching you starve.
423
00:24:09,582 --> 00:24:13,366
I have no appetite because I don't
do anything. If I agreed to part-time--
424
00:24:13,544 --> 00:24:15,252
You don't want me
to go back to work?
425
00:24:15,421 --> 00:24:18,043
Ten breaths every hour.
This one if you can't sleep.
426
00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:27,847
Are you from Haryana?
427
00:24:28,352 --> 00:24:30,973
I don't have to be.
It's in my country.
428
00:24:31,563 --> 00:24:36,107
A lot of folks died there in '86.
429
00:24:36,319 --> 00:24:38,192
CultiCo is a different company now.
430
00:24:39,489 --> 00:24:42,739
-It has a different name.
-And different people in charge.
431
00:24:42,951 --> 00:24:45,572
People who helped clean up
what happened.
432
00:24:46,913 --> 00:24:49,072
I'm late. I'll call you to check in.
433
00:24:51,460 --> 00:24:54,129
-Hutchinson said no to a Sunday spot?
-We said no. . .
434
00:24:54,296 --> 00:24:56,787
-. . .because he won't let me prep him.
-You go, girl.
435
00:24:56,966 --> 00:24:58,792
-Do people still say that?
-Not really.
436
00:24:58,968 --> 00:25:01,885
The lineup I like best for
Sunday morning is I give them you.
437
00:25:02,054 --> 00:25:04,343
New chief of staff,
most powerful woman in D.C.
438
00:25:04,515 --> 00:25:07,351
-That'd get them off the woes of Gaza.
-I'll think about it.
439
00:25:07,518 --> 00:25:10,270
The Pentagon finally released
Lieutenant Godfrey's name. . .
440
00:25:10,438 --> 00:25:11,814
. . .the dead peacekeeper's. . .
441
00:25:11,982 --> 00:25:15,185
. . .which brings me to the last thing
we need to bug you about.
442
00:25:15,360 --> 00:25:17,353
The lieutenant's dad lives here.
443
00:25:17,529 --> 00:25:20,614
We thought the president might
want to attend the funeral.
444
00:25:20,824 --> 00:25:23,031
Show of respect,
handing over the flag.
445
00:25:23,202 --> 00:25:24,993
This service is a private event.
446
00:25:25,204 --> 00:25:28,289
-When they find out where he's from--
-The father is not a fan.
447
00:25:28,499 --> 00:25:30,492
The president has
90-percent approval here.
448
00:25:30,710 --> 00:25:34,209
Godfrey Senior is in the minority,
and it's not necessarily a silent one.
449
00:25:34,380 --> 00:25:36,669
Looks like he may issue
a statement later today.
450
00:25:40,971 --> 00:25:42,595
When were you gonna tell us that?
451
00:25:42,764 --> 00:25:45,469
Easier to say "no comment"
when you have no comment.
452
00:25:45,684 --> 00:25:48,851
-That used to piss you off.
-And now it's pissing you off.
453
00:25:49,814 --> 00:25:51,308
Anything else?
454
00:25:54,485 --> 00:25:57,403
We need a stronger response
on the patients' bill. Tell her--
455
00:25:57,572 --> 00:25:59,150
-Juice it up?
-High octane.
456
00:25:59,365 --> 00:26:02,367
-I thought we wanted a patients' bill.
-Not this demon seed.
457
00:26:02,535 --> 00:26:04,991
The Republicans won't budge
on the liability cap.
458
00:26:05,163 --> 00:26:08,947
Patients won't be able to recoup their
out-of-pocket expenses. Some rights.
459
00:26:09,126 --> 00:26:11,878
Will said Santos picked up
eight more votes from our side.
460
00:26:12,087 --> 00:26:14,923
-And many Republicans.
-You want to distance the White House.
461
00:26:15,090 --> 00:26:17,214
I want the White House
in a different galaxy.
462
00:26:17,426 --> 00:26:20,214
Annabeth wondered
if she could get a minute later.
463
00:26:20,430 --> 00:26:23,549
-Donna's got something now.
-She needs Donna. About Dateline.
464
00:26:24,058 --> 00:26:26,016
-When am I doing Dateline?
-Never.
465
00:26:26,394 --> 00:26:30,226
I mean, I said no on your behalf.
I'll follow up.
466
00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:34,355
Well, I would characterize congressional
support as hesitant at best.
467
00:26:34,528 --> 00:26:36,936
The decision to send
18,000 American troops...
468
00:26:37,114 --> 00:26:40,151
... to a war zone in the Middle East
was made by the president...
469
00:26:40,326 --> 00:26:42,449
...and his advisors
at the Camp David summit.
470
00:26:42,620 --> 00:26:45,538
Congressional leaders
were not consulted.
471
00:26:45,748 --> 00:26:49,117
Congress chose to support President
Bartlet's desire to pursue peace...
472
00:26:49,294 --> 00:26:53,042
...between Israel and Palestine
to end the war that has killed thousands.
473
00:26:53,214 --> 00:26:57,675
But the fact of the matter is, when
we voted to approve peacekeepers...
474
00:26:57,844 --> 00:27:01,842
... we were led to believe that the
president had a viable strategy in place...
475
00:27:02,016 --> 00:27:07,176
...first and foremost, to secure the safety
of American troops on foreign terrain.
476
00:27:07,355 --> 00:27:09,347
Now, less than 15 days
into the mission...
477
00:27:09,524 --> 00:27:12,940
... the president's promises
have been broken.
478
00:27:13,152 --> 00:27:18,028
We've lost one life, so I am asking
the question every American is asking.
479
00:27:18,241 --> 00:27:20,234
Are there more to come?
480
00:27:40,014 --> 00:27:41,425
What are you doing here?
481
00:27:42,142 --> 00:27:43,885
I brought you food.
482
00:27:54,029 --> 00:27:56,567
You're a broken record.
483
00:27:58,451 --> 00:28:02,116
Be very quiet, huh?
Mr. McGarry needs his rest.
484
00:28:02,497 --> 00:28:04,739
-Is this your little one?
-This is Malti.
485
00:28:05,166 --> 00:28:07,740
-Say hello.
-Hi.
486
00:28:08,211 --> 00:28:09,789
Hello.
487
00:28:12,090 --> 00:28:15,341
-So nice wedding?
-Very nice.
488
00:28:15,719 --> 00:28:17,546
You took your pill?
489
00:28:20,140 --> 00:28:25,099
-That smells good.
-Nan. Still warm.
490
00:28:25,771 --> 00:28:27,349
Try it.
491
00:28:31,319 --> 00:28:33,727
Yeah, but to even stop to think
that maybe...
492
00:28:33,905 --> 00:28:36,028
... we ought to stop butting
into people's....
493
00:28:36,199 --> 00:28:40,244
-I'm sorry. Am I interrupting?
-Oh, not a bit. Thanks for stopping by.
494
00:28:40,495 --> 00:28:44,196
You heard from Dateline? I already
told them no, and three others.
495
00:28:44,375 --> 00:28:47,625
Probably makes them chase you harder.
Now I've got CAA calling.
496
00:28:47,795 --> 00:28:50,120
-What does the CIA want?
-No, CAA.
497
00:28:50,298 --> 00:28:52,670
Talent agency.
They think you need representation.
498
00:28:52,842 --> 00:28:55,084
-Is this about the CBS thing?
-Yeah.
499
00:28:55,261 --> 00:28:57,883
I don't even wanna do an interview.
Now I'm a movie.
500
00:28:58,056 --> 00:28:59,254
M.O.W.
501
00:28:59,432 --> 00:29:01,591
-Is that different?
-More likely to get made.
502
00:29:02,394 --> 00:29:04,387
-This is all ridiculous.
-Why?
503
00:29:04,605 --> 00:29:06,763
Girl next door
travels to a war-torn spot. . .
504
00:29:06,940 --> 00:29:10,773
. . .survives terrorism to bring a message
of peace to her president. It's heroic.
505
00:29:11,278 --> 00:29:13,354
Could it be good for us?
For the peace plan?
506
00:29:13,531 --> 00:29:16,200
Maybe. But you get paid.
You couldn't keep working here.
507
00:29:16,409 --> 00:29:18,485
Oh, then forget it.
508
00:29:19,746 --> 00:29:21,655
Paid how much?
509
00:29:23,875 --> 00:29:26,247
We are getting a lot of bad press.
510
00:29:26,419 --> 00:29:31,165
-Maybe I should do a news interview?
-No pressure, but my gut is you'd pop.
511
00:29:32,384 --> 00:29:34,792
Or you can talk to Toby.
512
00:29:35,220 --> 00:29:38,506
Or C.J. She'd know best.
513
00:29:40,893 --> 00:29:42,851
The thing is. . .
514
00:29:44,522 --> 00:29:46,016
. . .I wasn't heroic.
515
00:29:48,568 --> 00:29:52,898
I was in the wrong place
at the wrong time. l--
516
00:29:54,658 --> 00:29:58,157
But the soldier who was just killed,
and the ones that were wounded. . .
517
00:29:58,996 --> 00:30:01,238
. . .those guys chose that.
518
00:30:01,749 --> 00:30:05,498
They volunteered for a job they knew
would put them in harm's way.
519
00:30:08,172 --> 00:30:09,999
That's heroic.
520
00:30:21,979 --> 00:30:23,639
Talk to Will?
521
00:30:24,273 --> 00:30:27,856
-Just now.
-Is he thinking pills or a razor?
522
00:30:28,027 --> 00:30:31,313
He's got a ledge in his office,
but it's only on the second floor.
523
00:30:31,489 --> 00:30:34,241
-You're gloating.
-Over a certain colleague's misfortune?
524
00:30:34,409 --> 00:30:37,244
Yeah. I'm not ashamed of what
it says about me as a person.
525
00:30:37,412 --> 00:30:40,781
The president's about to be faced
with a crummy excuse for legislation.
526
00:30:40,957 --> 00:30:43,793
Good title, Patients' Bill of Rights.
Hard not to love that.
527
00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:47,626
Maybe it'll fix in conference, or we can
proclaim it National Veto Month.
528
00:30:47,798 --> 00:30:51,249
-The president's not gonna veto it.
-He won't sign it. It's grand theft.
529
00:30:51,427 --> 00:30:53,633
They stole the issue
and stripped it for parts.
530
00:30:53,804 --> 00:30:55,927
-Have you read the bill?
-Yeah, I read it.
531
00:30:56,098 --> 00:30:59,183
Lately? The Strickman-Santos bill
the House just passed?
532
00:30:59,352 --> 00:31:01,012
Why?
533
00:31:02,188 --> 00:31:03,848
Read the bill.
534
00:31:06,776 --> 00:31:08,686
Hey, I was afraid I'd missed you.
535
00:31:08,862 --> 00:31:11,353
-Almost a clean getaway.
-I have an idea.
536
00:31:11,532 --> 00:31:13,524
-Yep.
-It's good for the president.
537
00:31:13,700 --> 00:31:17,283
It'll turn the tide on a tough news cycle
and give us a fresh start.
538
00:31:17,454 --> 00:31:20,491
-There's a catch.
-We have to sell it to C.J.
539
00:31:20,666 --> 00:31:24,201
-And you think I'm the guy for that?
-You know her best.
540
00:31:24,921 --> 00:31:26,201
What's the pitch?
541
00:31:26,422 --> 00:31:29,792
-Millet.
-That's the secret.
542
00:31:29,968 --> 00:31:32,541
The special seed that gives
a certain oil.
543
00:31:32,721 --> 00:31:34,714
Only grown in one small area
of the Punjab.
544
00:31:36,391 --> 00:31:39,476
-You found your appetite.
-They ought to market this.
545
00:31:39,645 --> 00:31:43,014
It has no shelf life.
My aunt had to smuggle it on a plane.
546
00:31:43,190 --> 00:31:46,108
So basically,
I have to move to the Punjab?
547
00:31:46,277 --> 00:31:50,856
Even there, it can't compete now.
Most farmers grow GMO corn.
548
00:31:51,074 --> 00:31:54,525
-And make better money doing it.
-Yes, they never had money before.
549
00:31:55,203 --> 00:31:56,995
Or debt.
550
00:32:04,004 --> 00:32:08,132
My uncle had to sell his land
to pay off seed he can't replant. . .
551
00:32:08,300 --> 00:32:10,423
. . .engineered for chemicals
he cannot afford.
552
00:32:10,594 --> 00:32:13,465
No one's forced to use biotech.
They want it.
553
00:32:13,681 --> 00:32:15,840
These advances will feed the world.
554
00:32:16,059 --> 00:32:19,510
People starve because
they are kept poor.
555
00:32:19,687 --> 00:32:23,638
So now CultiCo's responsible
for Third World corruption?
556
00:32:23,817 --> 00:32:26,225
I didn't say CultiCo.
557
00:32:26,987 --> 00:32:30,273
Open markets redistribute wealth.
558
00:32:30,908 --> 00:32:32,616
-You're right.
-Sure. . .
559
00:32:33,828 --> 00:32:37,279
. . .there are blind spots
in the corporate view.
560
00:32:40,460 --> 00:32:43,377
That's why I left the first time.
561
00:32:45,465 --> 00:32:46,959
Enough money.
562
00:32:47,425 --> 00:32:49,252
Profits.
563
00:32:50,387 --> 00:32:53,174
And these guys. . .
564
00:32:53,891 --> 00:32:56,180
. . .never say "enough. "
565
00:32:57,937 --> 00:32:59,561
I'm not made that way.
566
00:33:03,109 --> 00:33:07,154
So they replace small farmers
growing many seeds with monocultures.
567
00:33:08,156 --> 00:33:10,232
And we all lose the means
to feed ourselves.
568
00:33:11,034 --> 00:33:12,694
What?
569
00:33:13,662 --> 00:33:15,738
You found your appetite.
570
00:33:28,678 --> 00:33:30,670
Reassure me the president
won't sign this.
571
00:33:30,847 --> 00:33:33,599
-Santos got the cap raised.
-To a slap on the wrist.
572
00:33:33,766 --> 00:33:36,684
-Five million's not nothing.
-You think the vice president. . .
573
00:33:36,853 --> 00:33:38,929
. . .scared the Republicans
up to that figure?
574
00:33:39,105 --> 00:33:42,309
-Absolutely. Still, it's impressive.
-lf that's what impresses you.
575
00:33:42,484 --> 00:33:46,482
Some would be impressed with the $20
million Russell's raised for his war chest.
576
00:33:46,655 --> 00:33:51,068
It would impress some that their VP got
endorsements from Lasko and Carpenter.
577
00:33:51,285 --> 00:33:53,907
-Yeah, I meant to--
-lf you guys-- Not the president. . .
578
00:33:54,080 --> 00:33:58,409
. . .we have his respect. The rest of you
are so busy throwing up roadblocks. . .
579
00:33:58,585 --> 00:34:02,748
. . .you haven't noticed it's three months
till Iowa, and nobody-- Don't say Baker.
580
00:34:02,923 --> 00:34:06,173
Nobody who's declared is polling
within 10 points of my guy.
581
00:34:06,385 --> 00:34:09,090
-I have noticed.
-And could you sound more miserable?
582
00:34:09,263 --> 00:34:12,714
Forget patients' rights. Russell
is on his way to being the nominee. . .
583
00:34:12,892 --> 00:34:16,640
. . .and God willing, our next president,
so get onboard or get out of my way.
584
00:34:20,942 --> 00:34:22,270
-You see the Times?
-Yeah.
585
00:34:22,443 --> 00:34:24,353
We're "hiding the price of peace. "
586
00:34:24,529 --> 00:34:27,150
Yeah. You have a second?
I wanna run something by you.
587
00:34:27,324 --> 00:34:29,197
-C.J. won't like it.
-C.J. won't see it.
588
00:34:29,367 --> 00:34:33,412
-That's not the only--
-I'll go to her office, right? Hey, guys.
589
00:34:33,580 --> 00:34:35,490
-Hey, Charlie.
-There isn't even a desk.
590
00:34:35,666 --> 00:34:37,789
-One's buried under here.
-What is all that?
591
00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:41,543
My fellow deputy special assistants
tell me these are commission reports. . .
592
00:34:41,714 --> 00:34:43,837
. . .and initiatives
no one's gotten around to.
593
00:34:44,008 --> 00:34:46,333
-I hope most of it's recycle.
-Got an assignment?
594
00:34:46,511 --> 00:34:48,918
-Pile on.
-Well, maybe. For the time being.
595
00:34:49,138 --> 00:34:50,882
Call when you need me.
596
00:34:51,474 --> 00:34:55,259
Mr. McGarry? Did you fall in?
597
00:35:05,656 --> 00:35:07,863
Going through my trash now?
598
00:35:09,911 --> 00:35:14,407
-Nice sweater. Cashmere?
-You coming along, or what?
599
00:35:21,131 --> 00:35:24,796
We handpick the pool, choose camera
positions. Could be good for everyone.
600
00:35:24,968 --> 00:35:27,804
-It's worth taking it to him.
-How long would advance need?
601
00:35:27,972 --> 00:35:29,929
Advance already spoke to Walter Reed.
602
00:35:30,099 --> 00:35:32,804
The five soldiers arrived yesterday.
They're all stable.
603
00:35:32,977 --> 00:35:36,761
Are you worried it'll look like a photo op,
too eager to show he cares?
604
00:35:36,981 --> 00:35:40,647
-He does care, but we'd be vulnerable.
-But after the focus on casualties. . .
605
00:35:40,819 --> 00:35:43,488
. . .here are the survivors
with their commander in chief.
606
00:35:43,655 --> 00:35:47,273
It's not a bad way to reiterate
his budget increase for Veterans Affairs.
607
00:35:47,492 --> 00:35:50,280
We don't want to appear
to exploit anyone.
608
00:35:50,496 --> 00:35:52,572
We can trust this president
to be authentic.
609
00:35:52,748 --> 00:35:56,164
Advance cleared it with the wounded
soldiers. They're all okay with it.
610
00:35:59,338 --> 00:36:02,256
I'll recommend it to the president
with one small adjustment.
611
00:36:03,092 --> 00:36:07,636
I haven't decided not to work.
I'm just not rushing into something new.
612
00:36:07,806 --> 00:36:10,095
I'm gonna give myself some time.
613
00:36:10,934 --> 00:36:12,476
-What's for dinner?
-Hungry?
614
00:36:12,644 --> 00:36:16,594
-I'll have to watch your cholesterol.
-Okay, okay.
615
00:36:18,067 --> 00:36:20,059
The body is predictable.
616
00:36:20,236 --> 00:36:25,064
One month after a bypass,
the appetite returns.
617
00:36:25,241 --> 00:36:28,491
Your sleep will grow less disturbed,
and your heart will quiet down.
618
00:36:28,661 --> 00:36:31,828
-My heart?
-Haven't you heard it beating?
619
00:36:31,998 --> 00:36:35,367
In surgery, they cut the pericardial sac,
which insulates the heart.
620
00:36:35,544 --> 00:36:37,335
Afterwards, it seems to pound.
621
00:36:37,504 --> 00:36:41,288
-They can't repair it?
-Heart's too swollen.
622
00:36:41,467 --> 00:36:45,547
You have to wait until it settles down,
scars over on its own.
623
00:36:46,347 --> 00:36:49,681
I might miss the sound.
I've gotten used to it.
624
00:36:50,434 --> 00:36:52,012
Part of healing.
625
00:36:52,186 --> 00:36:53,930
Going on.
626
00:37:00,111 --> 00:37:04,441
Congressman, I believe
I owe you an apology.
627
00:37:06,118 --> 00:37:09,238
-You want a beer?
-Sure.
628
00:37:12,458 --> 00:37:15,910
So either you got the cap to move
by promising you'd deliver Chambers. . .
629
00:37:16,087 --> 00:37:19,670
. . .or you got Chambers by promising
movement on the cap. Or both.
630
00:37:19,841 --> 00:37:22,546
-Glass, or you all right with a bottle?
-Bottle's fine.
631
00:37:22,761 --> 00:37:24,588
Once the momentum got going. . .
632
00:37:24,763 --> 00:37:27,384
. . .you called a couple
of the friendlier HMOs. . .
633
00:37:27,557 --> 00:37:31,638
. . .to let them know for their own good
that a 5 million cap was still a cap. . .
634
00:37:31,812 --> 00:37:35,228
. . .and they sure didn't want this thing
passing with the sky the limit.
635
00:37:35,399 --> 00:37:39,860
But what I'd like to know is if
you let your own bill self-destruct. . .
636
00:37:40,029 --> 00:37:43,114
. . .and joined with Strickman
knowing there was an opening. . .
637
00:37:43,282 --> 00:37:46,699
. . .if you let them take the lead,
or if you just went with it.
638
00:37:46,911 --> 00:37:49,616
It didn't hurt the other day in the hall
when you. . .
639
00:37:49,789 --> 00:37:54,535
-. . .demonstrated my independence.
-Well, I'm always happy to do my part.
640
00:37:55,754 --> 00:37:59,538
Vice president softening
up the battlefield didn't hurt.
641
00:38:00,593 --> 00:38:02,835
There's nothing motivates
Republicans more. . .
642
00:38:03,012 --> 00:38:05,254
. . .than a chance to hijack
one of our issues.
643
00:38:06,057 --> 00:38:09,141
So House bill, Senate bill,
not very far apart.
644
00:38:09,602 --> 00:38:13,268
Recess next week,
here you are drinking a beer?
645
00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:16,560
Don't tell me you're
already out of conference.
646
00:38:17,402 --> 00:38:20,902
Something'll be coming the president's
way first thing tomorrow.
647
00:38:21,907 --> 00:38:24,861
You're too good at this.
You can't just walk away.
648
00:38:29,206 --> 00:38:30,950
Watch me.
649
00:38:42,262 --> 00:38:45,845
-I'm glad we're doing this.
-Me too.
650
00:38:51,605 --> 00:38:55,057
-She took your suggestion.
-Except for the press part.
651
00:38:55,234 --> 00:38:56,894
Well, they're in the parking lot.
652
00:38:57,069 --> 00:39:00,770
-A photo op with no photos?
-I'll see you inside.
653
00:39:00,949 --> 00:39:03,237
No press, but we need
a deputy press secretary?
654
00:39:03,410 --> 00:39:06,779
You knew cameras didn't belong in this,
but you had her bring it to me.
655
00:39:06,955 --> 00:39:09,162
-You wanted to weigh in.
-Leo used to weigh in.
656
00:39:09,374 --> 00:39:12,826
-When it bothered me, I said so.
-I'm not ignoring you. It's my job now.
657
00:39:13,003 --> 00:39:16,835
You can't do it if you spend
all your time guarding your old turf.
658
00:39:25,975 --> 00:39:29,095
Hi. How are you?
659
00:39:31,356 --> 00:39:34,227
-I'll check on that for you, private.
-Thank you, sir.
660
00:39:36,195 --> 00:39:39,895
-The new ones are state of the art.
-That's what I hear.
661
00:39:40,074 --> 00:39:42,529
They'll have me fitted,
up and walking in no time.
662
00:39:42,701 --> 00:39:46,367
And you know the Army. They're not
gonna let you lay around on their dime.
663
00:39:47,331 --> 00:39:49,241
I wanna go back, sir.
664
00:39:49,417 --> 00:39:53,629
Well, I'll put in a word
with the Joint Chiefs. . .
665
00:39:53,797 --> 00:39:57,711
. . .but at the moment, your doctor's
your commanding officer. . .
666
00:39:57,884 --> 00:40:00,173
. . .so you make sure
you follow her orders, okay?
667
00:40:08,562 --> 00:40:10,270
How are you?
668
00:40:16,571 --> 00:40:18,979
And this is Lieutenant Martinez,
Mr. President.
669
00:40:19,157 --> 00:40:20,485
Lieutenant.
670
00:40:20,700 --> 00:40:24,069
-Did I say your name right?
-Yes, ma'am.
671
00:40:24,746 --> 00:40:28,958
But you don't have to remember it
when you start talking redeployment, sir.
672
00:40:31,420 --> 00:40:33,377
Is there anything I can do for you?
673
00:40:35,591 --> 00:40:36,920
How about a prayer?
674
00:40:44,350 --> 00:40:48,598
Our Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name.
675
00:40:49,564 --> 00:40:55,318
Thy kingdom come, thy will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
676
00:40:55,487 --> 00:40:58,358
Give us this day our daily bread.
677
00:40:58,532 --> 00:41:02,780
And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass. . . .
678
00:41:18,220 --> 00:41:20,260
I needed some air.
679
00:41:25,436 --> 00:41:29,220
-It ain't no photo op. You knew that.
-Now Annabeth knows that too.
680
00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:32,394
-You think I'm micromanaging?
-Yes.
681
00:41:35,405 --> 00:41:39,273
-I don't wanna let the president down.
-Me neither.
682
00:41:45,791 --> 00:41:49,125
How old do you think those guys
are in there, 20, 22?
683
00:41:49,336 --> 00:41:51,045
Tops.
684
00:41:57,053 --> 00:41:59,129
We're not gonna let the president down.59782
