Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:04,405 --> 00:00:06,040
Previously, on the west wing:
2
00:00:06,107 --> 00:00:07,275
Josh:
Where the hell'd
You get that?
3
00:00:07,341 --> 00:00:09,610
It says leo mcgarry
Spent 28 days
4
00:00:09,677 --> 00:00:12,413
In an alcohol
And substance abuse facil...
5
00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:13,581
This is a piece of paper
Obtained illegally.
6
00:00:13,647 --> 00:00:15,316
Records kept
By these facilites
7
00:00:15,383 --> 00:00:16,784
Are confidential,
Josh.
8
00:00:16,850 --> 00:00:18,086
He's got him.
9
00:00:18,152 --> 00:00:19,820
I thought what I'd do
Is kiss you
10
00:00:19,887 --> 00:00:21,422
On the mouth,
And then I'd be able
11
00:00:21,489 --> 00:00:24,525
To give my work
The kind of concentration
12
00:00:24,592 --> 00:00:25,693
It really deserves.
13
00:00:25,759 --> 00:00:28,929
I voluntarily admitted myself
To the sierra tucson
14
00:00:28,996 --> 00:00:30,464
Rehabilitation facility
15
00:00:30,531 --> 00:00:33,701
To treat an addiction
To alcohol and valium.
16
00:00:40,741 --> 00:00:42,543
C.J.:
Weather permitting,
We'll be in the rose garden.
17
00:00:42,610 --> 00:00:43,744
Woman:
And "Weather
Permitting" means...?
18
00:00:43,811 --> 00:00:44,745
If it's not raining.
19
00:00:44,812 --> 00:00:45,846
C.J....
I know.
20
00:00:45,913 --> 00:00:46,914
It's going to be 22 degrees.
21
00:00:46,980 --> 00:00:47,781
I know.
22
00:00:47,848 --> 00:00:48,882
I don't know why...
23
00:00:48,949 --> 00:00:50,418
This president
Is from new england.
24
00:00:50,484 --> 00:00:52,753
It's time we all
Started getting used to that.
25
00:00:52,820 --> 00:00:54,855
At least, that's what
He told me this morning.
26
00:00:54,922 --> 00:00:56,157
What else
Do we have here?
27
00:00:56,224 --> 00:00:57,791
There will be
15 pen recipients.
28
00:00:57,858 --> 00:00:59,760
The president will sign the bill
With 15 pens.
29
00:00:59,827 --> 00:01:01,995
Someone on my staff
Wanted you to know that.
30
00:01:02,062 --> 00:01:03,431
Danny:
C.J.?
31
00:01:03,497 --> 00:01:05,032
Tell me you don't have
A question about the pens.
32
00:01:05,099 --> 00:01:05,833
I have a question
About the pens.
33
00:01:05,899 --> 00:01:07,000
Yes, danny?
34
00:01:07,067 --> 00:01:08,436
"Josiah bartlett"
Has 13 letters.
35
00:01:08,502 --> 00:01:10,871
How's the president
Going to use 15 pens?
36
00:01:10,938 --> 00:01:12,206
Danny...?
I just...
37
00:01:12,273 --> 00:01:13,241
You know you were
The only one in the room
38
00:01:13,307 --> 00:01:14,375
Doing the math
On that, right?
39
00:01:14,442 --> 00:01:16,277
Only one
In the room.
40
00:01:16,344 --> 00:01:19,012
My readers expect
A little bit more.
41
00:01:19,079 --> 00:01:20,013
( exasperated sigh )
42
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:21,682
15 pens, 13 letters.
43
00:01:21,749 --> 00:01:24,618
They must have stuck something
In here about...
44
00:01:24,685 --> 00:01:25,586
Yes!
45
00:01:25,653 --> 00:01:27,588
He's going to...
Interesting.
46
00:01:27,655 --> 00:01:31,692
He's going to literally
Dot the "I" and cross the ts.
47
00:01:31,759 --> 00:01:32,793
Thank you.
48
00:01:32,860 --> 00:01:33,694
Freak boy.
49
00:01:33,761 --> 00:01:34,862
Thank you again.
50
00:01:34,928 --> 00:01:36,197
Jonathan
And jennifer lydell--
51
00:01:36,264 --> 00:01:38,166
The parents
Of lowell lydell--
52
00:01:38,232 --> 00:01:39,733
Have been added
To the guest list.
53
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:41,869
Also added to the guest list
Are senators...
54
00:01:41,935 --> 00:01:43,036
C.J.? That still on?
55
00:01:43,103 --> 00:01:44,405
What still on?
The lydells.
56
00:01:44,472 --> 00:01:45,038
Yeah.
57
00:01:45,105 --> 00:01:46,740
There's a rumor
58
00:01:46,807 --> 00:01:49,743
That the lydells aren't big
Supporters of the president...
59
00:01:49,810 --> 00:01:53,814
It's ridiculous-- the president
Signing hate crimes legislation.
60
00:01:53,881 --> 00:01:58,152
Jonathan and jennifer lydell's
Son was killed for being gay.
61
00:01:58,219 --> 00:01:59,887
I heard the same thing.
62
00:01:59,953 --> 00:02:01,522
The lydells are coming.
63
00:02:01,589 --> 00:02:02,990
And they'll be available
To the press?
64
00:02:03,056 --> 00:02:04,792
Yeah. Where was I?
65
00:02:04,858 --> 00:02:05,593
Woman:
"Senators."
66
00:02:05,659 --> 00:02:06,794
Breech and larkin.
67
00:02:06,860 --> 00:02:09,163
Senators breach and larkin
Will be attending as well.
68
00:02:09,230 --> 00:02:11,131
Listen, you've been
A great audience.
69
00:02:11,199 --> 00:02:13,066
Don't forget
To tip your waitresses.
70
00:02:13,133 --> 00:02:13,934
That's all the news today.
71
00:02:14,001 --> 00:02:15,336
You're out of here.
72
00:02:20,107 --> 00:02:20,741
I kind of wish you
Hadn't done that.
73
00:02:20,808 --> 00:02:21,442
Done what?
74
00:02:21,509 --> 00:02:22,343
Guaranteed the lydells.
75
00:02:22,410 --> 00:02:23,377
They're not coming?
76
00:02:23,444 --> 00:02:24,978
They are coming.
77
00:02:25,045 --> 00:02:26,780
I'm just not sure
We're going to
Want them there.
78
00:02:26,847 --> 00:02:27,815
I flew out
To st. Paul.
79
00:02:27,881 --> 00:02:31,219
I spoke to the mother
On the phone. Twice.
80
00:02:31,285 --> 00:02:32,320
The mother is fine.
81
00:02:32,386 --> 00:02:33,354
What's wrong
With the father?
82
00:02:33,421 --> 00:02:34,087
He doesn't say much.
83
00:02:34,154 --> 00:02:35,289
That's it?
84
00:02:35,356 --> 00:02:36,457
Sometimes that's
An indication...
85
00:02:36,524 --> 00:02:38,359
Their son
Was just murdered.
86
00:02:38,426 --> 00:02:39,993
Did you want him
To wear a campaign button?
87
00:02:40,060 --> 00:02:41,395
I do at the
Bill signing
88
00:02:41,462 --> 00:02:43,364
And the reticence
He exhibited in
His kitchen...
89
00:02:43,431 --> 00:02:44,665
Are you listening
To yourself?
90
00:02:44,732 --> 00:02:46,300
They're flying in
In the morning.
91
00:02:46,367 --> 00:02:48,101
Meet with them,
And tell me
What you think.
92
00:02:48,168 --> 00:02:49,970
You want me
To audition the lydells?
93
00:02:50,037 --> 00:02:51,672
Yes, and I'd also
Like you to cut me
94
00:02:51,739 --> 00:02:52,773
Some slack.
95
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:54,442
Fine.
96
00:02:54,508 --> 00:02:56,877
Carol? Dotting the is,
Crossing the ts...
97
00:02:56,944 --> 00:02:57,878
Thank you for that.
98
00:02:57,945 --> 00:02:58,779
We do our homework.
99
00:02:58,846 --> 00:03:02,082
You misspelled "Senator."
100
00:03:02,149 --> 00:03:03,284
Hello.
101
00:03:03,351 --> 00:03:04,652
We've got a bit
Of a sticky wicket.
102
00:03:04,718 --> 00:03:05,919
Please don't tell me
I'm staying here
103
00:03:05,986 --> 00:03:06,920
And working late tonight.
104
00:03:06,987 --> 00:03:08,222
I need you to
Read a report.
105
00:03:08,289 --> 00:03:09,223
I'm a woman
In her prime, josh.
106
00:03:09,290 --> 00:03:10,758
I'm a prime woman.
107
00:03:10,824 --> 00:03:12,860
No doubt about it,
But I need you to
Read this anyway.
108
00:03:12,926 --> 00:03:16,797
We want congress to
Sign off on funds for
100,000 new teachers.
109
00:03:16,864 --> 00:03:19,333
They say fine, but
You got to stipulate
110
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:20,934
That in sex
Ed classes...
111
00:03:21,001 --> 00:03:22,270
Abstinence only?
Yes.
112
00:03:22,336 --> 00:03:23,271
I would have no trouble
113
00:03:23,337 --> 00:03:25,873
Passing such a class.
114
00:03:25,939 --> 00:03:28,075
We commissioned
A report about
A year ago
115
00:03:28,141 --> 00:03:30,077
On sex education
In public schools
116
00:03:30,143 --> 00:03:32,079
And, well, this is it.
117
00:03:32,145 --> 00:03:33,647
What's it say?
118
00:03:33,714 --> 00:03:34,715
It's not good.
119
00:03:34,782 --> 00:03:36,617
How's it not good?
It says,
Basically
120
00:03:36,684 --> 00:03:39,753
That teaching abstinence
Only doesn't work
121
00:03:39,820 --> 00:03:41,789
That people are going
To be prone to have sex
122
00:03:41,855 --> 00:03:43,524
Whether they're cautioned
Against it or not.
123
00:03:43,591 --> 00:03:44,892
What are they recommending?
124
00:03:44,958 --> 00:03:45,626
Something called
125
00:03:45,693 --> 00:03:46,827
Abstinence plus.
126
00:03:46,894 --> 00:03:48,061
"Abstinence plus"?
Yes.
127
00:03:48,128 --> 00:03:49,330
What's that mean?
128
00:03:49,397 --> 00:03:51,999
Well, sam's renamed it
"Everything but."
129
00:03:52,065 --> 00:03:52,766
"Everything but"?
130
00:03:52,833 --> 00:03:53,467
Yes.
131
00:03:53,534 --> 00:03:53,867
Ah.
132
00:03:53,934 --> 00:03:55,068
Yes.
133
00:03:55,135 --> 00:03:58,205
They want teachers
To teach...?
Yes.
134
00:03:58,272 --> 00:03:59,940
And so the sticky
Wicket joke was...?
135
00:04:00,007 --> 00:04:02,042
A regrettable pun.
136
00:04:02,109 --> 00:04:03,210
Should I order you
Some food?
137
00:04:03,277 --> 00:04:04,144
You know, I can't remember
138
00:04:04,211 --> 00:04:05,012
The last time I got home
139
00:04:05,078 --> 00:04:07,548
Before midnight.
140
00:04:07,615 --> 00:04:10,451
By the way, pages 27 to 33.
141
00:04:10,518 --> 00:04:13,120
A couple of things
Every girl should know.
142
00:04:13,186 --> 00:04:14,955
Get me a salad.
143
00:05:03,604 --> 00:05:04,705
C.J.:
Hey.
144
00:05:04,772 --> 00:05:05,673
Danny:
Want to have dinner?
145
00:05:05,739 --> 00:05:06,740
With you?
Yes.
146
00:05:06,807 --> 00:05:08,175
I have to read
A report on sex
Education.
147
00:05:08,241 --> 00:05:09,410
Hey.
I'm anticipating
Any joke
148
00:05:09,477 --> 00:05:10,944
You could possibly
Make right now
149
00:05:11,011 --> 00:05:12,780
And I'm not
Finding any
Of them funny.
150
00:05:12,846 --> 00:05:14,615
Eventually, you're
Going to have to go
On a date with me.
151
00:05:14,682 --> 00:05:15,983
You can't just keep
Grabbing me and kissing me.
152
00:05:16,049 --> 00:05:17,150
I didn't...
Well, you can.
153
00:05:17,217 --> 00:05:18,386
I'm not going to mind
Or anything.
154
00:05:18,452 --> 00:05:20,120
I didn't grab you.
You grabbed me.
155
00:05:20,187 --> 00:05:22,823
First time. Second, third,
Fourth times, you grabbed me.
156
00:05:22,890 --> 00:05:25,559
All week long,
Randomly grabbing
Me and kissing me.
157
00:05:25,626 --> 00:05:27,127
Like I said,
I applaud the spirit
158
00:05:27,194 --> 00:05:29,497
But there's better things ahead
159
00:05:29,563 --> 00:05:30,964
As I'm sure
You're about to read.
160
00:05:31,031 --> 00:05:32,900
What do you want?
161
00:05:32,966 --> 00:05:34,935
I want to know about an advance
Man for the vice president
162
00:05:35,002 --> 00:05:36,937
Who took a navy helicopter
To pebble beach
163
00:05:37,004 --> 00:05:37,771
To shoot
18 holes.
164
00:05:37,838 --> 00:05:38,739
Are you kidding me?
165
00:05:38,806 --> 00:05:40,207
No.
How do you know
About this?
166
00:05:40,273 --> 00:05:41,241
A white house source.
167
00:05:41,308 --> 00:05:42,443
What kind of source?
168
00:05:42,510 --> 00:05:44,111
The anonymous kind.
169
00:05:44,177 --> 00:05:45,112
I'll find out
About it.
170
00:05:45,178 --> 00:05:46,614
Do it promptly, would you.
171
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:48,582
I got a helicopter pilot
Who sat around for four hours
172
00:05:48,649 --> 00:05:49,517
On the taxpayer's time
173
00:05:49,583 --> 00:05:50,718
While your advance man
174
00:05:50,784 --> 00:05:52,152
Hit every sand
Trap in carmel.
175
00:05:52,219 --> 00:05:53,421
Okay.
176
00:05:53,487 --> 00:05:55,856
See you.
Wait.
177
00:06:04,131 --> 00:06:07,668
Okay, you can go now.
178
00:06:07,735 --> 00:06:09,503
No problem.
179
00:06:15,042 --> 00:06:16,444
Josh!
180
00:06:16,510 --> 00:06:17,611
Did they burn the hamburger?
181
00:06:17,678 --> 00:06:18,646
I told them
Well-done.
182
00:06:18,712 --> 00:06:19,913
He likes it
Beyond well-done.
183
00:06:19,980 --> 00:06:21,181
He likes it burnt.
184
00:06:21,248 --> 00:06:21,982
Yeah...
185
00:06:22,049 --> 00:06:22,983
Food's here.
186
00:06:23,050 --> 00:06:23,584
Did they burn
The hamburger?
187
00:06:23,651 --> 00:06:24,752
Yes.
188
00:06:24,818 --> 00:06:26,920
Did you check?
I'm not checking
Your food.
189
00:06:26,987 --> 00:06:28,656
Let's go.
190
00:06:28,722 --> 00:06:31,492
No, no, I'll carry it.
191
00:06:31,559 --> 00:06:32,960
I like it where
If you dropped it
On the floor
192
00:06:33,026 --> 00:06:34,127
It would break.
193
00:06:34,194 --> 00:06:35,429
What's "Take out
The trash day"?
194
00:06:35,496 --> 00:06:36,897
Friday.
I mean what is it?
195
00:06:36,964 --> 00:06:38,231
Any stories we have
To give the press
196
00:06:38,298 --> 00:06:39,399
That we're not wild about
197
00:06:39,467 --> 00:06:40,400
We give them all
In a lump on friday.
198
00:06:40,468 --> 00:06:41,368
Why do you do it
In a lump?
199
00:06:41,435 --> 00:06:42,836
Instead of one
At a time?
200
00:06:42,903 --> 00:06:44,538
I'd think you'd want
To spread them out.
201
00:06:44,605 --> 00:06:47,274
They've got "X"
Column inches to fill.
Yes.
202
00:06:47,340 --> 00:06:48,809
They're going
To fill them
No matter what.
203
00:06:48,876 --> 00:06:50,511
Yes.
So if we give
Them one story
204
00:06:50,578 --> 00:06:52,312
That story's "X"
Column inches.
205
00:06:52,379 --> 00:06:53,981
You give them
Five stories...
206
00:06:54,047 --> 00:06:55,148
It's a fifth the size.
207
00:06:55,215 --> 00:06:56,450
Why do you do it on friday?
208
00:06:56,517 --> 00:06:57,785
No one reads
The paper on
Saturday.
209
00:06:57,851 --> 00:06:59,553
You guys are
Real populists.
210
00:06:59,620 --> 00:07:01,522
Salad's for c.J.
Mm-hmm.
211
00:07:09,362 --> 00:07:10,931
Yeah?
212
00:07:10,998 --> 00:07:14,301
There is a town in alabama
That wants to abolish all laws
213
00:07:14,367 --> 00:07:15,469
Except the ten commandments.
214
00:07:15,536 --> 00:07:16,870
I saw it.
215
00:07:16,937 --> 00:07:18,238
Well, they're going
To have a problem.
216
00:07:18,305 --> 00:07:19,573
Because the constitution
217
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:21,141
Prohibits religious activity
In any form
218
00:07:21,208 --> 00:07:22,409
Connected
To government.
219
00:07:22,476 --> 00:07:23,877
Good point.
Two problems.
220
00:07:23,944 --> 00:07:25,513
Sam, I'm busy here.
I just mean
221
00:07:25,579 --> 00:07:26,747
Some of those commandments
Are pretty
222
00:07:26,814 --> 00:07:28,982
Hard to enforce.
What is it?
223
00:07:29,049 --> 00:07:29,817
I just got a call
224
00:07:29,883 --> 00:07:31,752
Asking me if I wanted to comment
225
00:07:31,819 --> 00:07:35,523
On a story that's going to run
In the georgetown hoyatomorrow.
226
00:07:35,589 --> 00:07:36,824
The student newspaper?
227
00:07:36,890 --> 00:07:38,325
A sociology professor's
Been teaching
228
00:07:38,391 --> 00:07:40,928
What the paper, at any rate,
Feels is racist stuff.
229
00:07:40,994 --> 00:07:44,632
You know, too much funding for
Head start, welfare mothers...
230
00:07:44,698 --> 00:07:46,399
And why are they talking to us?
231
00:07:46,466 --> 00:07:47,400
Zoey's in the class.
232
00:07:47,467 --> 00:07:48,636
Who cares?
233
00:07:48,702 --> 00:07:50,538
This minute, the georgetown hoya
234
00:07:50,604 --> 00:07:52,305
Tomorrow...
235
00:07:52,372 --> 00:07:55,976
The president's daughter's
Got an idiot sociology professor
236
00:07:56,043 --> 00:07:56,677
And we got to...
237
00:07:56,744 --> 00:07:57,778
I'll talk to zoey.
238
00:07:57,845 --> 00:07:59,813
Please.
239
00:08:04,918 --> 00:08:06,086
What else?
240
00:08:06,153 --> 00:08:08,021
Coveting thy neighbor's wife,
For example.
241
00:08:08,088 --> 00:08:09,256
How you going to enforce
That one?
242
00:08:09,322 --> 00:08:10,423
Sam...
243
00:08:10,490 --> 00:08:12,225
We never have our
Chats anymore, toby.
244
00:08:12,292 --> 00:08:13,260
What chats?
245
00:08:13,326 --> 00:08:14,695
Our late night chats.
246
00:08:14,762 --> 00:08:17,297
Did we ever do that?
247
00:08:17,364 --> 00:08:19,266
No.
248
00:08:19,332 --> 00:08:20,200
Fellas.
Hey.
249
00:08:20,267 --> 00:08:21,702
My office.
250
00:08:22,736 --> 00:08:23,737
Leo, did you know
That there's
251
00:08:23,804 --> 00:08:24,705
A town in alabama
That wants...?
252
00:08:24,772 --> 00:08:26,807
Yes.
What do you think?
253
00:08:26,874 --> 00:08:28,041
Coveting thy
Neighbor's wife
254
00:08:28,108 --> 00:08:29,610
Is going to cause
Some problems.
255
00:08:29,677 --> 00:08:30,978
That's what I said.
Plus, if I were arrested
256
00:08:31,044 --> 00:08:32,680
For coveting
My neighbor's wife
257
00:08:32,746 --> 00:08:35,082
When asked about it, I'd
Probably bear false witness.
258
00:08:36,116 --> 00:08:36,717
Hi.
259
00:08:36,784 --> 00:08:38,051
Josh, this sex ed report
260
00:08:38,118 --> 00:08:40,487
Could not possibly come
At a worse time.
261
00:08:40,554 --> 00:08:42,189
I know.
100,000 school teachers...
262
00:08:42,255 --> 00:08:43,791
I know.
He's going to sign
The hate crimes bill.
263
00:08:43,857 --> 00:08:45,425
He didn't write
The thing, leo.
264
00:08:45,492 --> 00:08:48,495
I'm saying I wish we'd gotten
Some heads up it was coming.
265
00:08:48,562 --> 00:08:50,030
Well, that horse
Left the barn.
266
00:08:50,097 --> 00:08:52,666
We're going
To have to deal
With it tomorrow.
267
00:08:52,733 --> 00:08:54,635
What else? What's
This thing on the hill?
268
00:08:54,702 --> 00:08:57,404
Sam and me, we're
Meeting with... Bruno
269
00:08:57,470 --> 00:08:58,739
From an appropriations
Subcommittee
270
00:08:58,806 --> 00:08:59,873
That has jurisdiction
271
00:08:59,940 --> 00:09:02,109
Over the white
House budget.
272
00:09:02,175 --> 00:09:03,176
Is this about me?
273
00:09:03,243 --> 00:09:04,311
Technically,
It's about me.
274
00:09:04,377 --> 00:09:06,513
They want to know
Why I withheld
Information
275
00:09:06,580 --> 00:09:08,281
Gained during
Inspector javert's
276
00:09:08,348 --> 00:09:09,549
Drug search.
Um...
277
00:09:09,617 --> 00:09:10,718
It's a...
Can I say
278
00:09:10,784 --> 00:09:11,952
Something
About that?
No.
279
00:09:12,019 --> 00:09:13,553
It was absolutely
The right thing to do...
280
00:09:13,621 --> 00:09:16,056
I understand.
281
00:09:16,123 --> 00:09:16,990
You're going with him?
282
00:09:17,057 --> 00:09:17,625
Yeah.
283
00:09:17,691 --> 00:09:19,627
Okay.
284
00:09:19,693 --> 00:09:20,728
I'm sorry to make you guys...
285
00:09:20,794 --> 00:09:21,929
Leo.
Please.
286
00:09:21,995 --> 00:09:23,096
Okay.
287
00:09:24,297 --> 00:09:26,499
First of all, you don't
Know that for sure.
288
00:09:26,566 --> 00:09:28,001
She just said...
Guys...
289
00:09:28,068 --> 00:09:29,603
She just said
She knew that for sure.
290
00:09:29,670 --> 00:09:31,271
She said she knew it
In her heart
291
00:09:31,338 --> 00:09:32,640
Which is very different
Than somebody saying...
292
00:09:32,706 --> 00:09:34,007
I know it for sure.
293
00:09:34,074 --> 00:09:34,908
She just said it.
294
00:09:34,975 --> 00:09:36,276
Someone needs
To tell their boss.
295
00:09:36,343 --> 00:09:37,410
Mrs. Landingham:
Excuse me.
296
00:09:37,477 --> 00:09:38,679
Good evening,
Mrs. Landingham.
297
00:09:38,746 --> 00:09:39,980
What are you girls doing?
298
00:09:40,047 --> 00:09:42,950
We're just talking,
Mrs. Landingham.
299
00:09:43,016 --> 00:09:45,552
You all work
For very important people.
300
00:09:45,619 --> 00:09:47,454
This is not a place for gossip.
301
00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:48,622
You understand me?
302
00:09:48,689 --> 00:09:50,590
Yes, ma'am.
303
00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:53,794
Donna.
304
00:09:53,861 --> 00:09:55,562
She said she knew it
In her heart.
305
00:09:55,629 --> 00:09:58,031
You know how many things I've
Been wrong about in my heart?
306
00:09:58,098 --> 00:09:59,499
Yeah, but she's
Right about this one.
307
00:09:59,566 --> 00:10:01,101
Aren't you?
308
00:10:01,168 --> 00:10:03,303
Here's a group
Of federal employees.
309
00:10:05,205 --> 00:10:06,206
Can I talk to you?
310
00:10:06,273 --> 00:10:07,040
Sure.
311
00:10:07,107 --> 00:10:08,642
In sam's office.
312
00:10:08,709 --> 00:10:10,043
We'll need to ask sam,
Don't you think?
313
00:10:10,110 --> 00:10:11,745
I need sam, too.
314
00:10:11,812 --> 00:10:12,479
Josh:
Sam.
315
00:10:12,545 --> 00:10:13,546
Yes, sir.
316
00:10:13,613 --> 00:10:14,715
Donna needs to
Talk to us
317
00:10:14,782 --> 00:10:16,817
And it doesn't
Look good.
318
00:10:16,884 --> 00:10:18,185
This vice president's
Advance man
319
00:10:18,251 --> 00:10:19,720
With the golf clubs
And the helicopter.
320
00:10:19,787 --> 00:10:21,588
Chad margrudian.
Yeah.
321
00:10:21,655 --> 00:10:23,223
Didn't he used
To work for us?
322
00:10:23,290 --> 00:10:23,924
Kept
Screwing up.
323
00:10:23,991 --> 00:10:25,525
How?
He advanced
324
00:10:25,592 --> 00:10:27,761
The puerto rico trip and spent
A half a day scuba diving
325
00:10:27,828 --> 00:10:29,797
Which was nowhere
On the president's itinerary.
326
00:10:29,863 --> 00:10:32,565
He advanced the new york trip,
And got tickets
327
00:10:32,632 --> 00:10:33,533
To something that the president
328
00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:34,802
Had no intention
Of seeing.
329
00:10:34,868 --> 00:10:36,904
He's working
For hoynes now?
Yeah.
330
00:10:36,970 --> 00:10:38,138
Played 18 holes at pebble beach.
331
00:10:38,205 --> 00:10:40,073
Technically what he's
Supposed to do.
332
00:10:40,140 --> 00:10:42,676
Wasn't supposed to take a navy
Helicopter and make it wait.
333
00:10:42,743 --> 00:10:43,977
Well, what does this
Have to do with us?
334
00:10:44,044 --> 00:10:45,779
We know who leaked
The story.
335
00:10:56,023 --> 00:10:56,724
Hey.
336
00:10:56,790 --> 00:10:57,457
You remember chad margrudian?
337
00:10:57,524 --> 00:10:58,425
The advance man?
338
00:10:58,491 --> 00:10:59,592
Yeah.
He took a ride...
339
00:10:59,659 --> 00:11:00,627
I know about this
340
00:11:00,694 --> 00:11:01,729
Already.
The round of golf.
341
00:11:01,795 --> 00:11:03,163
How do you know?
342
00:11:03,230 --> 00:11:04,865
Danny got it
From a white
House source.
343
00:11:04,932 --> 00:11:05,866
And danny gave it to you?
344
00:11:05,933 --> 00:11:07,200
Any problem with that?
345
00:11:07,267 --> 00:11:08,702
As long as it wasn't
The other way around.
346
00:11:08,769 --> 00:11:09,870
Toby.
I was jok...
347
00:11:09,937 --> 00:11:11,805
It better have been.
What else?
348
00:11:11,872 --> 00:11:13,173
C.J.
What else?
349
00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:15,242
There's going to be
A thing with zoey.
350
00:11:15,308 --> 00:11:17,945
Her sociology professor's
Teaching some things.
351
00:11:18,011 --> 00:11:19,747
We're going
To get her out
Of the class.
352
00:11:19,813 --> 00:11:21,314
You can dump them both out
With the trash.
353
00:11:21,381 --> 00:11:23,483
Okay.
354
00:11:23,550 --> 00:11:25,518
And I was kidding before.
355
00:11:25,585 --> 00:11:27,220
I don't leak stories to danny.
356
00:11:27,287 --> 00:11:28,822
If you don't believe me,
Ask danny.
357
00:11:28,889 --> 00:11:30,390
I do believe you.
358
00:11:30,457 --> 00:11:33,493
Good.
359
00:11:33,560 --> 00:11:34,795
You okay by yourself?
360
00:11:34,862 --> 00:11:37,965
Why wouldn't I be okay?
361
00:11:39,366 --> 00:11:41,134
Okay.
362
00:11:43,937 --> 00:11:45,806
Good night.
363
00:11:58,852 --> 00:12:00,353
Her name is karen larsen.
364
00:12:00,420 --> 00:12:02,355
She'd worked on the
Vice president's campaign
365
00:12:02,422 --> 00:12:04,091
And in his public
Affairs office.
366
00:12:04,157 --> 00:12:07,761
Aides thought she
Was getting a bit
Of a crush on hoynes
367
00:12:07,828 --> 00:12:09,629
So they moved her
Further away.
368
00:12:09,696 --> 00:12:10,563
Where?
369
00:12:10,630 --> 00:12:11,765
I'm glad you asked.
370
00:12:11,832 --> 00:12:12,532
Personnel?
371
00:12:12,599 --> 00:12:13,733
Yeah.
372
00:12:13,801 --> 00:12:15,235
How high is her
Fbi clearance?
373
00:12:15,302 --> 00:12:18,071
High enough.
I think we found
Our man.
374
00:12:18,138 --> 00:12:19,239
Sam, have a talk with her
375
00:12:19,306 --> 00:12:21,074
When you get back
From the hill.
376
00:12:21,141 --> 00:12:22,042
Yeah.
377
00:12:22,109 --> 00:12:23,811
The way the european
Union's set up
378
00:12:23,877 --> 00:12:25,813
The rules favor
The import of bananas
379
00:12:25,879 --> 00:12:26,947
From latin american
Countries
380
00:12:27,014 --> 00:12:28,916
That used to be
European colonies.
381
00:12:28,982 --> 00:12:29,749
I don't want to spend
A whole day
382
00:12:29,817 --> 00:12:31,284
Talking about bananas.
383
00:12:31,351 --> 00:12:32,719
Good morning, nancy,
Good morning, mrs. Landingham.
384
00:12:32,786 --> 00:12:33,921
Good morning,
Mr. President.
385
00:12:33,987 --> 00:12:35,823
Did you say you
Wanted a banana?
No.
386
00:12:35,889 --> 00:12:37,157
Nancy, run get
The president a banana.
387
00:12:37,224 --> 00:12:38,558
I really don't want
A banana.
388
00:12:38,625 --> 00:12:40,093
Are you sure, sir?
Yes, thank you.
389
00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:41,728
It's got lots
Of potassium.
390
00:12:41,795 --> 00:12:45,298
I'm done talking
To you now.
391
00:12:45,365 --> 00:12:46,233
Good morning, everyone.
392
00:12:46,299 --> 00:12:47,434
Good morning, sir.
Good morning, sir.
393
00:12:47,500 --> 00:12:48,635
Sit down, sit down, please.
394
00:12:48,701 --> 00:12:49,970
The point they're
Going to make
395
00:12:50,037 --> 00:12:51,905
Is that the rules
Discriminate against bananas
396
00:12:51,972 --> 00:12:54,241
From poorer latin american
Countries.
397
00:12:54,307 --> 00:12:55,208
Are we a poorer
Latin american country?
398
00:12:55,275 --> 00:12:56,209
No.
399
00:12:56,276 --> 00:12:57,544
Then why am I having
This conversation?
400
00:12:57,610 --> 00:12:59,779
Because the bananas
Grown in those countries
401
00:12:59,847 --> 00:13:01,214
Are sold by american
Companies.
402
00:13:01,281 --> 00:13:03,583
So I'm in trouble with
Chiquita and dole?
403
00:13:03,650 --> 00:13:06,719
Well, it's not you
So much as...
404
00:13:06,786 --> 00:13:09,022
Yeah, it's mostly you.
405
00:13:09,089 --> 00:13:09,789
Toby?
406
00:13:09,857 --> 00:13:10,958
Yes, sir?
407
00:13:11,024 --> 00:13:12,425
We have appointed
Five people
408
00:13:12,492 --> 00:13:14,627
To the corporation
For public broadcasting.
409
00:13:14,694 --> 00:13:16,129
Republicans in the house
410
00:13:16,196 --> 00:13:18,932
As well as an alarming
Number of democrats
411
00:13:18,999 --> 00:13:20,700
Have been holding up
Those appointments.
412
00:13:20,767 --> 00:13:22,035
I-I've been fully briefed.
413
00:13:22,102 --> 00:13:23,837
As far as I can tell,
Their reluctance
414
00:13:23,904 --> 00:13:25,839
Has little, if anything,
To do with bananas.
415
00:13:25,906 --> 00:13:27,374
I'm meeting with some key people
This afternoon.
416
00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:28,375
You're all set?
417
00:13:28,441 --> 00:13:30,911
I... Was raised
On sesame street;
418
00:13:30,978 --> 00:13:32,946
I was raised on julia child;
419
00:13:33,013 --> 00:13:35,849
I was raised
On brideshead revisited.
420
00:13:35,916 --> 00:13:38,518
Their legacies are safe
In my hands, sir.
421
00:13:38,585 --> 00:13:40,320
( laughing )
422
00:13:40,387 --> 00:13:43,056
You've got a problem?
423
00:13:43,123 --> 00:13:45,158
You watched cooking shows?
424
00:13:45,225 --> 00:13:47,360
I watched
Miss julia child.
425
00:13:47,427 --> 00:13:49,229
Okay.
426
00:13:49,296 --> 00:13:51,464
Leo:
C.J., mandy
Talk to you
427
00:13:51,531 --> 00:13:52,765
About the lydells?
428
00:13:52,832 --> 00:13:54,234
Yeah.
You're going to
Sit with them?
429
00:13:54,301 --> 00:13:55,903
When they get in
This afternoon.
430
00:13:55,969 --> 00:13:57,137
President:
Then talk
To the father.
431
00:13:57,204 --> 00:13:58,471
Yes, sir.
And the mother,
Too--
432
00:13:58,538 --> 00:13:59,973
But I'm concerned
About the father.
433
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:01,308
Sir, if you don't mind me asking
434
00:14:01,374 --> 00:14:03,610
What exactly is the nature
Of your concern?
435
00:14:03,676 --> 00:14:04,912
Mandy says he's withdrawn.
436
00:14:04,978 --> 00:14:07,180
That he doesn't say much.
437
00:14:07,247 --> 00:14:09,016
I don't understand.
His son was just killed.
438
00:14:09,082 --> 00:14:10,150
His son was
Just killed
439
00:14:10,217 --> 00:14:13,386
Because he was gay.
440
00:14:13,453 --> 00:14:14,554
And...?
441
00:14:14,621 --> 00:14:16,556
This is no time
To put a guy front and center
442
00:14:16,623 --> 00:14:20,560
Who's embarrassed
That his son was gay.
443
00:14:20,627 --> 00:14:21,528
Really.
444
00:14:21,594 --> 00:14:23,630
Fathers and
Sons, c.J.
445
00:14:23,696 --> 00:14:26,066
This guy sells dental supplies
In the twin cities
446
00:14:26,133 --> 00:14:29,236
So how enlightened
Do you think he's going to be?
447
00:14:29,302 --> 00:14:31,638
Yeah, but his son just died.
448
00:14:31,704 --> 00:14:33,473
Sit and talk to them.
449
00:14:33,540 --> 00:14:34,174
Yes, sir.
450
00:14:34,241 --> 00:14:35,775
President:
Is that it?
451
00:14:35,842 --> 00:14:37,945
Mr. President, I was wondering
If you had an opportunity
452
00:14:38,011 --> 00:14:39,913
To look
At the sex education report?
453
00:14:39,980 --> 00:14:41,048
I haven't had a chance yet.
454
00:14:41,114 --> 00:14:42,382
'cause it's
Very dramatic.
455
00:14:42,449 --> 00:14:43,917
We should talk
About the right forum
456
00:14:43,984 --> 00:14:45,585
With which to present it
To the public.
457
00:14:45,652 --> 00:14:47,988
I'll look it over
And we'll talk at
The end of the day.
458
00:14:48,055 --> 00:14:49,122
Yes, sir.
Thank you.
459
00:14:49,189 --> 00:14:50,590
Josh and sam,
Wait up a second.
460
00:14:50,657 --> 00:14:51,524
Leo, don't go away.
461
00:14:51,591 --> 00:14:52,960
Mm-hmm.
462
00:14:55,728 --> 00:14:56,463
Excuse us, lindell.
463
00:14:56,529 --> 00:14:57,998
Thank you.
464
00:15:00,033 --> 00:15:02,402
What time are you going up
To the hill?
465
00:15:02,469 --> 00:15:03,603
Noon.
466
00:15:03,670 --> 00:15:06,173
I want to preempt a hearing.
I don't want it.
467
00:15:06,239 --> 00:15:07,340
I don't want it for leo.
468
00:15:07,407 --> 00:15:08,475
I don't want it
For his family.
469
00:15:08,541 --> 00:15:10,243
I don't want it for us.
470
00:15:10,310 --> 00:15:12,980
They know that and
They're going to play
"Let's make a deal."
471
00:15:13,046 --> 00:15:14,948
Don't take anything
Off the table
472
00:15:15,015 --> 00:15:17,484
Until you've talked to me,
You understand?
473
00:15:17,550 --> 00:15:19,819
Yes, sir.
Okay.
474
00:15:19,886 --> 00:15:21,388
Unless a war breaks out
475
00:15:21,454 --> 00:15:24,057
I'll be spending much of my day
Talking about bananas.
476
00:15:24,124 --> 00:15:24,757
Godspeed to you, sir.
477
00:15:24,824 --> 00:15:25,892
Thank you.
478
00:15:25,959 --> 00:15:26,759
Thank you,
Mr. President.
479
00:15:26,826 --> 00:15:28,028
All right.
480
00:15:34,634 --> 00:15:38,071
Is simon blye coming in
To meet with you today?
481
00:15:38,138 --> 00:15:39,339
How did you
Know that?
482
00:15:39,406 --> 00:15:41,941
I broke into your secret
Schedule compartment
483
00:15:42,009 --> 00:15:44,244
And took infrared photos
With my compact camera.
484
00:15:44,311 --> 00:15:45,012
Sir...
485
00:15:45,078 --> 00:15:46,379
Margaret told me.
Look...
486
00:15:46,446 --> 00:15:49,916
Why are you meeting
With that man?
487
00:15:49,983 --> 00:15:50,917
He's a good friend.
488
00:15:50,984 --> 00:15:53,486
No, he's not.
489
00:15:53,553 --> 00:15:54,821
He's been
A good friend to me.
490
00:15:54,887 --> 00:15:56,456
In good times, leo.
491
00:15:56,523 --> 00:15:58,525
It's not hard to like a guy
When he's doing well.
492
00:15:58,591 --> 00:16:00,560
The measure of a man
493
00:16:00,627 --> 00:16:05,265
Is how does he behave
When things are otherwise?
494
00:16:05,332 --> 00:16:06,366
I need some counsel.
495
00:16:06,433 --> 00:16:08,001
That you couldn't get from me...
496
00:16:08,068 --> 00:16:10,303
Or toby or josh or sam or c.J.?
497
00:16:10,370 --> 00:16:12,205
I didn't mean that,
Mr. President, and--
498
00:16:12,272 --> 00:16:14,174
I know you.
And, of course, your counsel
499
00:16:14,241 --> 00:16:16,409
Is valued
Above all else.
500
00:16:16,476 --> 00:16:19,212
I just meant...
501
00:16:19,279 --> 00:16:20,513
I can use all the help
I can get.
502
00:16:20,580 --> 00:16:22,182
You put a lot of faith
In people, leo
503
00:16:22,249 --> 00:16:23,716
And I love you for that.
504
00:16:23,783 --> 00:16:26,353
I just don't want to see you
Get disappointed.
505
00:16:26,419 --> 00:16:27,154
Yes, sir.
506
00:16:27,220 --> 00:16:30,423
Especially now.
507
00:16:30,490 --> 00:16:31,991
Yes, sir.
508
00:16:32,059 --> 00:16:34,127
Okay.
509
00:16:37,997 --> 00:16:41,401
Oh, at some point,
You've got to read
The sex ed report.
510
00:16:41,468 --> 00:16:42,202
I will.
511
00:16:42,269 --> 00:16:43,703
Thank you, sir.
Thank you.
512
00:16:47,607 --> 00:16:48,541
Hey.
513
00:16:48,608 --> 00:16:49,542
Hey!
514
00:16:49,609 --> 00:16:50,443
Tell me something.
515
00:16:50,510 --> 00:16:51,078
Okay.
516
00:16:51,144 --> 00:16:51,878
Are we off the record?
517
00:16:51,944 --> 00:16:53,080
Sure.
Are we?
518
00:16:53,146 --> 00:16:53,980
Yes.
Feels like we're
519
00:16:54,047 --> 00:16:54,981
Still on the record.
520
00:16:55,048 --> 00:16:56,249
I don't flick
A switch.
521
00:16:56,316 --> 00:16:57,184
We're off the record.
522
00:16:57,250 --> 00:16:58,185
Never mind.
523
00:16:58,251 --> 00:16:59,052
What was it?
524
00:16:59,119 --> 00:17:00,687
It was... Nothing.
525
00:17:00,753 --> 00:17:01,954
I want to make it very clear
526
00:17:02,021 --> 00:17:03,690
That I have no objection
To the kissing.
527
00:17:03,756 --> 00:17:04,724
I understand.
528
00:17:04,791 --> 00:17:05,792
I didn't want you
To think
529
00:17:05,858 --> 00:17:07,094
That it was a problem
For me.
530
00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:09,829
There won't be
Any more kissing.
531
00:17:09,896 --> 00:17:11,564
I'm sorry to hear that.
532
00:17:15,135 --> 00:17:18,004
Is it possible that a father
Could be embarrassed
533
00:17:18,071 --> 00:17:19,506
About his son being gay
534
00:17:19,572 --> 00:17:23,243
Even after his son
Was murdered?
535
00:17:23,310 --> 00:17:25,545
Yes.
536
00:17:25,612 --> 00:17:26,613
Possible to the extent
537
00:17:26,679 --> 00:17:28,515
That he'd be disinclined
To support a law
538
00:17:28,581 --> 00:17:30,083
That would impose
Stiffer penalties
539
00:17:30,150 --> 00:17:31,818
Upon the perpetrators
Of hate crimes
540
00:17:31,884 --> 00:17:32,985
Including the ones
541
00:17:33,052 --> 00:17:34,787
Who tied his 17-year-old
Son to a tree
542
00:17:34,854 --> 00:17:37,890
And threw rocks at his head?
543
00:17:37,957 --> 00:17:41,694
Yes.
544
00:17:41,761 --> 00:17:42,662
It eludes me.
545
00:17:42,729 --> 00:17:44,697
I know.
Okay.
546
00:17:44,764 --> 00:17:45,732
You going
To tell us
547
00:17:45,798 --> 00:17:47,367
About the advance guy
And the helicopter?
548
00:17:47,434 --> 00:17:48,835
I'll have
Information
On friday.
549
00:17:48,901 --> 00:17:50,270
You'll dump it
In the friday trash.
550
00:17:50,337 --> 00:17:51,738
He's a c-level aide
To the vice president.
551
00:17:51,804 --> 00:17:54,374
He's resigning.
You want to run
A special section?
552
00:17:54,441 --> 00:17:55,575
Just minding
The people's business.
553
00:17:55,642 --> 00:17:57,009
A job you're
Uniquely suited for.
554
00:17:57,076 --> 00:17:58,010
Thank you.
555
00:17:58,077 --> 00:17:58,945
Good-bye.
556
00:17:59,011 --> 00:18:00,813
Okay. See ya.
557
00:18:03,150 --> 00:18:05,718
Okay, you should go now.
558
00:18:06,919 --> 00:18:08,821
I work here.
559
00:18:08,888 --> 00:18:11,090
Yes... Then...
560
00:18:11,158 --> 00:18:13,059
I should go.
561
00:18:13,126 --> 00:18:15,328
Okay.
562
00:18:21,168 --> 00:18:22,235
Bruno:
This isn't a trial.
563
00:18:22,302 --> 00:18:23,803
This isn't a deposition.
564
00:18:23,870 --> 00:18:25,238
You won't be sworn in.
565
00:18:25,305 --> 00:18:26,873
You're not on the record.
566
00:18:26,939 --> 00:18:28,475
There will be no record.
567
00:18:28,541 --> 00:18:30,943
I sit on the house
Appropriations
Subcommittee
568
00:18:31,010 --> 00:18:33,480
For white house
Budget and management.
569
00:18:33,546 --> 00:18:35,182
Thanks.
570
00:18:35,248 --> 00:18:36,883
Many of my colleagues,
As you can imagine
571
00:18:36,949 --> 00:18:38,318
Are asking that
Hearings be held
572
00:18:38,385 --> 00:18:40,019
To determine if there
Was any wrongdoing
573
00:18:40,086 --> 00:18:42,189
On the part of senior
White house staffers
574
00:18:42,255 --> 00:18:44,324
In covering up leo
Mcgarry's past problems
575
00:18:44,391 --> 00:18:47,093
With alcohol and drugs.
576
00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:49,429
I want to see if
We can avoid that.
577
00:18:49,496 --> 00:18:51,464
As I'm sure you
Do, as well.
578
00:18:51,531 --> 00:18:53,032
Yes, sir.
579
00:18:53,099 --> 00:18:55,702
So... What happened?
580
00:18:55,768 --> 00:18:57,170
Leo?
581
00:18:57,237 --> 00:18:57,870
Is he here?
582
00:18:57,937 --> 00:18:58,605
Yes.
583
00:18:58,671 --> 00:18:59,839
Send him in.
584
00:19:01,708 --> 00:19:03,810
Leo!
Simon.
585
00:19:03,876 --> 00:19:04,844
Thanks so much
For coming.
586
00:19:04,911 --> 00:19:05,812
Of course.
587
00:19:05,878 --> 00:19:06,446
Any trouble
Getting here?
588
00:19:06,513 --> 00:19:07,079
No, no.
589
00:19:07,146 --> 00:19:08,315
How's meredith?
590
00:19:08,381 --> 00:19:10,583
Spending all her time
In the country now.
591
00:19:10,650 --> 00:19:11,384
Well...
592
00:19:11,451 --> 00:19:12,752
You built the house,
Simon.
593
00:19:12,819 --> 00:19:13,820
( laughing )
594
00:19:15,822 --> 00:19:17,957
And I know you're busy, leo.
595
00:19:18,024 --> 00:19:19,826
Why don't we talk about you?
596
00:19:19,892 --> 00:19:21,027
Okay.
597
00:19:21,093 --> 00:19:22,662
Sam:
This past november 21st
598
00:19:22,729 --> 00:19:24,231
Congressman lillienfield
Announced
599
00:19:24,297 --> 00:19:25,765
In a sort of
Reckless fashion
600
00:19:25,832 --> 00:19:28,635
That one in three white house
Staffers was on drugs.
601
00:19:28,701 --> 00:19:30,770
We were in the midst
Of announcing our nominee
602
00:19:30,837 --> 00:19:32,305
For the supreme court
603
00:19:32,372 --> 00:19:33,606
So there was a
Certain amount...
604
00:19:33,673 --> 00:19:34,674
You didn't want
To blow the moment.
605
00:19:34,741 --> 00:19:35,608
Yes.
606
00:19:35,675 --> 00:19:37,176
You can speak
Candidly here.
607
00:19:37,244 --> 00:19:38,611
Thank you.
608
00:19:38,678 --> 00:19:41,013
Did toby ziegler ask you
To investigate the claim?
609
00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:42,181
Sam:
"Investigate"
Is a word that
610
00:19:42,249 --> 00:19:44,451
Gets us into some trouble.
Ah.
611
00:19:44,517 --> 00:19:46,853
You conducted interviews
With staffers to determine...
612
00:19:46,919 --> 00:19:47,687
As a first glance.
613
00:19:47,754 --> 00:19:48,788
Right.
614
00:19:48,855 --> 00:19:50,457
If there were any staffers
Using drugs
615
00:19:50,523 --> 00:19:52,359
Of if anyone knew
Of any staffers using drugs.
616
00:19:52,425 --> 00:19:53,493
Josh:
That's right.
617
00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:55,228
Bruno:
And claypool subpoenaed
618
00:19:55,295 --> 00:19:56,729
The paperwork on the interviews.
619
00:19:56,796 --> 00:19:58,831
Under the freedom
Of information act.
620
00:19:58,898 --> 00:20:00,132
Okay.
621
00:20:00,199 --> 00:20:03,603
I've got your claypool
Deposition here
622
00:20:03,670 --> 00:20:05,071
And I want to talk about it
For a moment.
623
00:20:05,137 --> 00:20:06,573
Josh:
Sure.
624
00:20:06,639 --> 00:20:07,740
Simon:
Josh lyman and sam seaborn--
625
00:20:07,807 --> 00:20:09,141
It's my understanding
626
00:20:09,208 --> 00:20:10,710
They're up with bruno's
People right now.
627
00:20:10,777 --> 00:20:11,478
That's right.
628
00:20:11,544 --> 00:20:13,480
Trying to avoid
A hearing.
629
00:20:13,546 --> 00:20:15,982
They won't be successful.
630
00:20:16,048 --> 00:20:17,717
Josh and sam
Are pretty good.
631
00:20:17,784 --> 00:20:19,218
And bruno's
A reasonable
Guy, so...
632
00:20:19,286 --> 00:20:20,920
There's going to be
A hearing, leo
633
00:20:20,987 --> 00:20:23,456
And it'll take months
And it'll be awful.
634
00:20:23,523 --> 00:20:26,293
We're going to hear stories
About booze and pills
635
00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:27,226
And god knows
What else you did.
636
00:20:27,294 --> 00:20:28,495
Oh, simon...
637
00:20:28,561 --> 00:20:30,330
The president's
Got a budget to pass
638
00:20:30,397 --> 00:20:31,831
He's got to get mendoza
Confirmed
639
00:20:31,898 --> 00:20:33,633
And in nine months,
He's got to get
640
00:20:33,700 --> 00:20:37,103
A democratic
Congress elected.
641
00:20:37,169 --> 00:20:38,871
Leo...
642
00:20:40,740 --> 00:20:42,275
Simon, did you come here
To tell me
643
00:20:42,342 --> 00:20:44,110
You think I should resign?
644
00:20:44,176 --> 00:20:45,945
Yeah.
645
00:20:46,012 --> 00:20:49,316
I've offered the president
My resignation.
646
00:20:49,382 --> 00:20:51,984
He won't accept it.
647
00:20:52,051 --> 00:20:55,121
He's blinded by friendship
And he's being foolish
648
00:20:55,187 --> 00:20:57,457
And you should
Point that out to him.
649
00:21:03,563 --> 00:21:06,299
Simon, I'm just taking
A guess--
650
00:21:06,366 --> 00:21:07,634
Is there an op-ed piece
Coming out
651
00:21:07,700 --> 00:21:10,470
That I should know about?
652
00:21:10,537 --> 00:21:11,704
In tomorrow's post.
653
00:21:11,771 --> 00:21:13,473
I wanted to let you know
As a courtesy
654
00:21:13,540 --> 00:21:15,141
Since we've been friends
For so long.
655
00:21:15,207 --> 00:21:16,208
I have a copy with me...
656
00:21:16,275 --> 00:21:17,377
No, I don't
Need to see it.
657
00:21:17,444 --> 00:21:18,177
I know what it says.
658
00:21:18,244 --> 00:21:19,178
Leo...
659
00:21:19,245 --> 00:21:20,980
For the good of the party.
660
00:21:21,047 --> 00:21:22,048
For the good of the president.
661
00:21:22,114 --> 00:21:23,416
Yes.
662
00:21:23,483 --> 00:21:24,617
A leading democrat comes out
In the post
663
00:21:24,684 --> 00:21:25,985
And calls for my resignation.
664
00:21:26,052 --> 00:21:27,787
That probably won't get
Much attention...
665
00:21:27,854 --> 00:21:28,955
Leo...
666
00:21:29,021 --> 00:21:31,023
And it will definitely
Not distract
667
00:21:31,090 --> 00:21:32,325
From the president's agenda.
668
00:21:32,392 --> 00:21:33,259
Now, hang on a second...
I haven't seen you
669
00:21:33,326 --> 00:21:34,694
Making the rounds
670
00:21:34,761 --> 00:21:37,664
On the sunday morning talk shows
In a while, simon.
671
00:21:37,730 --> 00:21:38,931
I'm glad I could help out.
672
00:21:40,833 --> 00:21:42,935
I was hoping
This would go differently.
673
00:21:43,002 --> 00:21:43,970
Tell me
Something--
674
00:21:44,036 --> 00:21:45,505
Where's your grave concern
675
00:21:45,572 --> 00:21:48,307
For country, party and president
When you're out whoring
676
00:21:48,375 --> 00:21:50,377
For standard oil?
677
00:21:53,179 --> 00:21:54,714
I'm insulted by that.
678
00:21:54,781 --> 00:21:57,083
Well, god, I sure didn't mean
To hurt your feelings.
679
00:21:57,149 --> 00:21:59,419
I do not...
Think you should
Walk out of here now.
680
00:21:59,486 --> 00:22:01,688
Leo...
As a matter of fact,
I think you should run.
681
00:22:13,332 --> 00:22:15,435
Oh, god.
682
00:22:17,504 --> 00:22:18,605
Josh:
How long?
683
00:22:18,671 --> 00:22:20,239
Bruno:
After the midterms.
684
00:22:20,306 --> 00:22:20,873
That's almost a year.
685
00:22:20,940 --> 00:22:21,541
Yes, sir.
686
00:22:21,608 --> 00:22:22,675
You want the white house
687
00:22:22,742 --> 00:22:24,911
To keep this
In a drawer for a year?
688
00:22:24,977 --> 00:22:26,846
Yes, sir.
Why?
689
00:22:26,913 --> 00:22:29,482
I don't want them to beg.
Nobody does.
690
00:22:29,549 --> 00:22:31,350
Nobody wants to support it.
691
00:22:31,418 --> 00:22:32,719
Nobody wants
To oppose it.
692
00:22:32,785 --> 00:22:35,422
Nobody wants the debate--
Not till after midterms.
693
00:22:35,488 --> 00:22:36,689
We put this thing
In a drawer for a year
694
00:22:36,756 --> 00:22:37,990
And you can guarantee us...
695
00:22:38,057 --> 00:22:39,659
There'll be no hearings
In the house.
696
00:22:39,726 --> 00:22:40,960
The president will
Never go for it.
697
00:22:41,027 --> 00:22:42,294
Yes, he will.
698
00:22:42,361 --> 00:22:44,230
Leo mcgarry hasn't
Done anything wrong.
699
00:22:44,296 --> 00:22:45,732
Neither has anyone else.
700
00:22:45,798 --> 00:22:47,767
The hearings aren't going
To turn up anything.
701
00:22:47,834 --> 00:22:49,502
We're not frightened
Enough...
702
00:22:49,569 --> 00:22:53,806
Oh, stop it.
Honest to god.
703
00:22:53,873 --> 00:22:56,275
It doesn't matter what the hell
The hearing turns up.
704
00:22:56,342 --> 00:22:57,810
It's a hearing.
705
00:22:57,877 --> 00:22:59,712
This one is drugs
So it's sexy.
706
00:22:59,779 --> 00:23:03,249
This is geraldo's
Dream come true.
707
00:23:03,315 --> 00:23:05,251
So don't get up with me, okay?
708
00:23:05,317 --> 00:23:07,487
I am throwing you a rope.
709
00:23:07,554 --> 00:23:09,088
Something I'd like
The two of you to remember
710
00:23:09,155 --> 00:23:11,624
The next time you're mouthing
Off on face the nation.
711
00:23:11,691 --> 00:23:12,925
You can't get anything done
712
00:23:12,992 --> 00:23:14,961
'cause house republicans
Are vindictive.
713
00:23:17,664 --> 00:23:18,765
This is what happens
714
00:23:18,831 --> 00:23:20,800
You put teenagers
In the white house.
715
00:23:20,867 --> 00:23:23,803
You guys screwed this up
From the beginning.
716
00:23:23,870 --> 00:23:26,205
You should have been
There first on mcgarry.
717
00:23:26,272 --> 00:23:28,541
You should have had
The white house
Counsel's office
718
00:23:28,608 --> 00:23:30,109
Run the internal
Investigation.
719
00:23:30,176 --> 00:23:32,612
You come remarkably close
To perjury
720
00:23:32,679 --> 00:23:35,448
In this claypool deposition.
721
00:23:35,515 --> 00:23:36,716
I'd like to hold hearings
722
00:23:36,783 --> 00:23:39,051
Into the two of you
Being stupid.
723
00:23:42,354 --> 00:23:45,492
But I don't have
That kind of time.
724
00:23:45,558 --> 00:23:47,093
Here's the phone.
725
00:23:47,159 --> 00:23:50,096
I'm sure the president is
Waiting for your call.
726
00:23:50,162 --> 00:23:51,163
Excuse us.
727
00:24:05,311 --> 00:24:07,346
Toby, your argument
Isn't with us.
728
00:24:07,413 --> 00:24:09,916
We watch pbs.
We like pbs.
729
00:24:09,982 --> 00:24:11,718
But we also work
For congressmen
730
00:24:11,784 --> 00:24:13,152
Who have constituencies
731
00:24:13,219 --> 00:24:15,688
That want to know why
The federal government
732
00:24:15,755 --> 00:24:19,492
Is subsidizing television
For rich people.
733
00:24:19,559 --> 00:24:20,960
It's not television
For rich people.
734
00:24:21,027 --> 00:24:23,730
Oh, toby...
It's not television
For rich people.
735
00:24:23,796 --> 00:24:25,498
In fact, the public
Television audience
736
00:24:25,565 --> 00:24:27,133
Is a fairly accurate
Reflection
737
00:24:27,199 --> 00:24:30,102
Of the social and economic
Makeup of the united states.
738
00:24:30,169 --> 00:24:32,505
One quarter of the pbs
Audience is in households
739
00:24:32,572 --> 00:24:34,774
With incomes lower
Than $20,000 a year.
740
00:24:34,841 --> 00:24:37,043
Blacks comprise 11% of the
Public television audience
741
00:24:37,109 --> 00:24:39,679
And blacks comprise 11%
Of the commercial tv audience.
742
00:24:39,746 --> 00:24:43,916
47% of pbs viewers have
A high school education, or less
743
00:24:43,983 --> 00:24:46,986
Which is one percent better
Than the commercial tv audience.
744
00:24:47,053 --> 00:24:48,955
So, what are you talking
To me about?
745
00:24:49,021 --> 00:24:50,422
Are they here?
They're in
The mural room.
746
00:24:50,489 --> 00:24:51,390
Why don't you
Get mandy.
747
00:24:51,457 --> 00:24:52,759
Do you know
Where she is?
748
00:24:52,825 --> 00:24:54,460
She's in the oval office,
Having what must be
749
00:24:54,527 --> 00:24:55,662
A very comfortable conversation
750
00:24:55,728 --> 00:24:59,065
With the president.
751
00:24:59,131 --> 00:25:00,800
President:
"The majority of young people
752
00:25:00,867 --> 00:25:03,736
"Move from kissing to more
Intimate sexual behaviors
753
00:25:03,803 --> 00:25:05,805
"During their teenage years.
754
00:25:05,872 --> 00:25:08,908
More than 50% engage
In petting behavior."
755
00:25:08,975 --> 00:25:10,309
That's what I
Think it is, right?
756
00:25:10,376 --> 00:25:11,611
Yes, sir.
757
00:25:11,678 --> 00:25:12,945
"By the age of 14
758
00:25:13,012 --> 00:25:16,783
"More than 25% have
Touched a girl's..."
759
00:25:16,849 --> 00:25:19,952
I won't say that word.
760
00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:23,055
Not going to say that.
761
00:25:23,122 --> 00:25:25,057
Okay.
762
00:25:25,124 --> 00:25:27,193
Not going to say that.
763
00:25:27,259 --> 00:25:27,727
Excuse me,
Mr. President.
764
00:25:27,794 --> 00:25:28,995
Yes?
765
00:25:29,061 --> 00:25:31,130
Mandy, the lydells are waiting
In the mural room.
766
00:25:31,197 --> 00:25:32,231
Does c.J. Know?
767
00:25:32,298 --> 00:25:33,432
She's waiting outside.
768
00:25:33,499 --> 00:25:34,133
Mr. President?
769
00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:35,134
Go.
770
00:25:35,201 --> 00:25:36,235
Thank you, sir.
771
00:25:36,302 --> 00:25:39,338
Thank you.
772
00:25:39,405 --> 00:25:41,908
Would you like to share
What's in that report, sir?
773
00:25:41,974 --> 00:25:42,609
With you?
774
00:25:42,675 --> 00:25:43,309
Yes, sir.
775
00:25:43,375 --> 00:25:44,811
No.
776
00:25:44,877 --> 00:25:46,679
May I ask why not, sir?
777
00:25:46,746 --> 00:25:48,447
Because I'd rather not be
In therapy
778
00:25:48,514 --> 00:25:50,683
For the rest of my life.
779
00:25:50,750 --> 00:25:53,285
Very well, sir.
780
00:25:55,187 --> 00:25:56,222
( door closes )
781
00:25:56,288 --> 00:25:58,791
I won't say that word.
782
00:26:03,630 --> 00:26:04,831
Mr. And mrs. Lydell?
783
00:26:04,897 --> 00:26:05,397
Yes.
784
00:26:05,464 --> 00:26:07,934
I'm c.J. Cregg
785
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:09,602
And you've
Already met mandy.
786
00:26:09,669 --> 00:26:12,071
Yes. How do you do?
787
00:26:12,138 --> 00:26:13,172
Please sit.
788
00:26:13,239 --> 00:26:15,141
We want to thank you
For coming such a long way
789
00:26:15,207 --> 00:26:17,877
Particularly so soon
After this unspeakable tragedy.
790
00:26:17,944 --> 00:26:19,311
Well, we're glad
To be here.
791
00:26:19,378 --> 00:26:22,181
That's why we asked
To talk to you for a minute.
792
00:26:22,248 --> 00:26:25,551
It was mandy's impression--
And perhaps it was mistaken--
793
00:26:25,618 --> 00:26:27,654
That you and
Your husband
794
00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:28,855
Uh, have some
Reservations
795
00:26:28,921 --> 00:26:30,056
About appearing
In support
796
00:26:30,122 --> 00:26:34,661
Of the president.
797
00:26:34,727 --> 00:26:36,295
I hate to have
To put it so bluntly
798
00:26:36,362 --> 00:26:37,229
But is that true?
799
00:26:37,296 --> 00:26:38,230
C.J.
800
00:26:38,297 --> 00:26:39,899
We strongly support
The hate crimes law
801
00:26:39,966 --> 00:26:41,600
The president
Is signing
Tomorrow night.
802
00:26:41,668 --> 00:26:42,869
Mr. Lydell?
803
00:26:42,935 --> 00:26:45,237
Yes?
804
00:26:45,304 --> 00:26:47,940
I'm sorry.
I was asking...
805
00:26:48,007 --> 00:26:53,813
Mr. Lydell, I don't know...
How else to put this
806
00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:56,849
But if you appear
In front of the press
807
00:26:56,916 --> 00:26:59,018
To be at all embarrassed
808
00:26:59,085 --> 00:27:01,954
By your son's
Homosexuality...
809
00:27:02,021 --> 00:27:04,757
I guess,
Let me just ask...
810
00:27:04,824 --> 00:27:06,726
Do you support
The president?
811
00:27:06,793 --> 00:27:08,027
Yes. We do.
812
00:27:08,094 --> 00:27:08,494
No. We do not.
813
00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:09,796
Jonathan...
814
00:27:09,862 --> 00:27:13,565
No. That was really
The last... No...
815
00:27:13,632 --> 00:27:16,903
We do not.
816
00:27:16,969 --> 00:27:19,105
The hate crimes
Bill is fine.
817
00:27:19,171 --> 00:27:19,672
Who gives a damn?
818
00:27:19,739 --> 00:27:20,439
It's fine.
819
00:27:20,506 --> 00:27:21,874
I don't care.
820
00:27:21,941 --> 00:27:23,776
If you ask me,
We shouldn't be making laws
821
00:27:23,843 --> 00:27:25,411
Against what's
In a person's head
822
00:27:25,477 --> 00:27:27,146
But I don't give a damn.
823
00:27:27,213 --> 00:27:29,682
It's fine.
824
00:27:29,749 --> 00:27:34,253
I don't understand how this
President, who I voted for...
825
00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:36,222
I don't understand
How he can take
826
00:27:36,288 --> 00:27:38,758
Such a completely weak-ass
Position on gay rights.
827
00:27:38,825 --> 00:27:40,259
Jonathan...
828
00:27:40,326 --> 00:27:44,330
Gays in the military,
Same-sex marriage, gay adoption
829
00:27:44,396 --> 00:27:46,398
Boards of
Education...
830
00:27:46,465 --> 00:27:49,301
Where the
Hell is he?
831
00:27:49,368 --> 00:27:52,939
I want to know what quality
Necessary to being a parent
832
00:27:53,005 --> 00:27:56,776
The president feels
My son lacked.
833
00:27:56,843 --> 00:27:58,244
I want to know
From this president
834
00:27:58,310 --> 00:28:00,747
Who has served not one day
In uniform--
835
00:28:00,813 --> 00:28:02,681
I had two tours in vietnam--
836
00:28:02,749 --> 00:28:06,585
I want to know what quality
Necessary to being a soldier
837
00:28:06,652 --> 00:28:10,022
This president feels
My son lacked.
838
00:28:12,725 --> 00:28:14,393
Lady, I'm not
Embarrassed
839
00:28:14,460 --> 00:28:16,896
That my son was gay...
840
00:28:16,963 --> 00:28:19,832
My government is.
841
00:28:25,137 --> 00:28:27,339
Will you excuse us a moment?
842
00:28:43,055 --> 00:28:46,058
Mandy...
843
00:28:46,125 --> 00:28:47,159
We're going to have
To send them home.
844
00:28:47,226 --> 00:28:47,827
They'll be fine.
845
00:28:47,894 --> 00:28:48,527
They won't be fine.
846
00:28:48,594 --> 00:28:50,029
Mandy...
847
00:28:50,096 --> 00:28:51,263
This thing's
Going to be over
848
00:28:51,330 --> 00:28:52,564
And the press is going
To surround them...
849
00:28:52,631 --> 00:28:53,465
So the press
Surrounds him.
850
00:28:53,532 --> 00:28:54,433
He says what he says.
851
00:28:54,500 --> 00:28:56,102
What are you
Talking about?
852
00:28:56,168 --> 00:28:58,637
He made a reasonable point,
And maybe he's got a right.
853
00:28:58,704 --> 00:29:00,606
To talk to reporters
On our dime?
854
00:29:00,672 --> 00:29:03,709
Yeah. Maybe, yeah.
855
00:29:03,776 --> 00:29:05,611
You are the white house
Press secretary.
856
00:29:05,677 --> 00:29:07,479
They said
They support the bill.
857
00:29:07,546 --> 00:29:08,614
What else...?
C.J.
858
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:10,917
Get it together.
859
00:29:22,895 --> 00:29:25,197
Yeah. All right,
All right, I know.
860
00:29:25,264 --> 00:29:27,466
I know.
861
00:29:27,533 --> 00:29:29,135
We have to send
Them home.
862
00:29:29,201 --> 00:29:30,970
I know.
863
00:29:31,037 --> 00:29:32,271
I'll go let them know.
864
00:29:32,338 --> 00:29:32,872
No.
865
00:29:32,939 --> 00:29:37,343
No. I'll do it.
866
00:29:37,409 --> 00:29:39,245
Okay.
867
00:29:49,321 --> 00:29:51,057
Lock:
I got news for you, toby.
868
00:29:51,123 --> 00:29:53,659
When pbs claims that
A majority of households
869
00:29:53,725 --> 00:29:54,726
Are weekly viewers
870
00:29:54,793 --> 00:29:55,928
They use
The nielsen index
871
00:29:55,995 --> 00:29:57,329
That's based
On diaries.
872
00:29:57,396 --> 00:30:00,366
Those results always show
Vastly higher pbs viewing
873
00:30:00,432 --> 00:30:02,401
Than the numbers gathered
By the automated boxes.
874
00:30:02,468 --> 00:30:03,235
Why? Because they're...
875
00:30:03,302 --> 00:30:04,937
Because people want to claim
876
00:30:05,004 --> 00:30:07,506
They're more sophisticated
Than they are.
877
00:30:07,573 --> 00:30:08,607
Lock:
That's right.
878
00:30:08,674 --> 00:30:09,775
Look...
879
00:30:09,842 --> 00:30:11,243
Hang on.
There's one other thing:
880
00:30:11,310 --> 00:30:13,545
Uh, product licensing
For big bird dolls
881
00:30:13,612 --> 00:30:15,214
And fuzzy bear toys?
882
00:30:15,281 --> 00:30:16,382
Fozzy bear.
883
00:30:16,448 --> 00:30:17,583
Oh, well, whatever.
884
00:30:17,649 --> 00:30:21,187
It's fozzy bear, not fuzzybear.
885
00:30:21,253 --> 00:30:24,190
Uh, product licensing
For this merchandise brings in
886
00:30:24,256 --> 00:30:27,493
Over $20 million a year,
None of which goes to pbs
887
00:30:27,559 --> 00:30:29,695
All of which goes
To the show's producer--
888
00:30:29,761 --> 00:30:31,197
The children's television
Workshop.
889
00:30:31,263 --> 00:30:33,565
Now, this is a company
Whose chief executive earns
890
00:30:33,632 --> 00:30:36,502
High six-figures in salary
And benefits per year.
891
00:30:36,568 --> 00:30:40,139
Yet, sesame street is subsidized
By taxpayer dollars.
892
00:30:40,206 --> 00:30:42,474
It's a perfectly reasonable
Complaint.
893
00:30:42,541 --> 00:30:44,476
Lock:
And?
894
00:30:44,543 --> 00:30:45,111
And I don't care.
895
00:30:45,177 --> 00:30:46,245
Toby...
896
00:30:46,312 --> 00:30:47,846
We're going to see
To all those things.
897
00:30:47,914 --> 00:30:51,283
In the meantime, at a time when
The public is rightly concerned
898
00:30:51,350 --> 00:30:53,319
About the impact
Of sex and violence on tv
899
00:30:53,385 --> 00:30:56,355
This administration is going
To protect the muppets!
900
00:30:56,422 --> 00:30:58,124
We're going protect
Wall street week
901
00:30:58,190 --> 00:30:59,725
We're going to protect
Live from lincoln center
902
00:30:59,791 --> 00:31:01,727
And, by god, we are
Going to protect julia child.
903
00:31:01,793 --> 00:31:02,528
( knocking )
904
00:31:02,594 --> 00:31:03,562
Toby...
Hang on.
905
00:31:09,368 --> 00:31:11,037
I got a message
You wanted to see me.
906
00:31:11,103 --> 00:31:12,204
I've got good news.
What?
907
00:31:12,271 --> 00:31:14,473
Josh and sam cut a deal
On the hill.
908
00:31:14,540 --> 00:31:15,707
No hearing for leo.
909
00:31:15,774 --> 00:31:18,945
Oh, toby, that's...
That's great.
910
00:31:19,011 --> 00:31:20,612
Yeah. I got
To get back in there.
911
00:31:20,679 --> 00:31:21,981
This is just
Too much fun.
912
00:31:28,687 --> 00:31:29,922
Sam?
913
00:31:29,989 --> 00:31:32,158
Cathy, there is a small town
In alabama
914
00:31:32,224 --> 00:31:33,993
That wants to pass a law saying
915
00:31:34,060 --> 00:31:36,228
If I don't honor my father
I go to jail.
916
00:31:36,295 --> 00:31:37,863
What do you think about that?
917
00:31:37,930 --> 00:31:40,632
How do they know if you're
Honoring your father or not?
918
00:31:40,699 --> 00:31:42,969
Yeah, I think they've overlooked
That problem.
919
00:31:43,035 --> 00:31:45,037
She's here.
920
00:31:45,104 --> 00:31:47,273
Send her in.
921
00:31:50,842 --> 00:31:51,710
Are you karen larsen?
922
00:31:51,777 --> 00:31:53,479
Yes.
I'm sam seaborn.
923
00:31:53,545 --> 00:31:54,546
I know.
924
00:32:00,886 --> 00:32:02,154
The advance man
You ratted out
925
00:32:02,221 --> 00:32:03,789
Doesn't work for us
Anymore, karen.
926
00:32:03,855 --> 00:32:04,790
He works for
The vice president.
927
00:32:04,856 --> 00:32:05,891
Kind of screwed
Yourself.
928
00:32:05,958 --> 00:32:07,159
I didn't...
929
00:32:07,226 --> 00:32:08,995
Trying to win
One for the vice
President?
930
00:32:09,061 --> 00:32:09,962
I didn't...
Were you?
931
00:32:10,029 --> 00:32:11,097
I wasn't.
932
00:32:11,163 --> 00:32:12,298
I've got four
Witnesses, karen.
933
00:32:12,364 --> 00:32:13,932
I've got ginger
From my office
934
00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:15,267
I have a guy from
Political liaison
935
00:32:15,334 --> 00:32:16,768
And two wire
Service reporters.
936
00:32:16,835 --> 00:32:18,470
Trying to protect
Your boss?
937
00:32:18,537 --> 00:32:19,638
Mr. Seaborn...
938
00:32:19,705 --> 00:32:21,240
People say you've
Been acting funny--
939
00:32:21,307 --> 00:32:22,708
Like you've got
Something to hide.
940
00:32:22,774 --> 00:32:23,909
They think
You're the one
941
00:32:23,976 --> 00:32:26,478
That leaked the story
About the advance.
942
00:32:26,545 --> 00:32:28,147
I'm thinking
Something different.
943
00:32:28,214 --> 00:32:29,348
Mr. Seaborn, I had
Absolutely nothing to do
944
00:32:29,415 --> 00:32:30,916
With the reporters
Finding out...
945
00:32:30,983 --> 00:32:32,618
I don't give a damn
About the round of golf.
946
00:32:32,684 --> 00:32:35,454
I don't give a damn
About the helicopter
Or about the advance.
947
00:32:35,521 --> 00:32:38,724
Karen, look at me.
948
00:32:38,790 --> 00:32:40,092
Were you the one
949
00:32:40,159 --> 00:32:41,893
Who gave leo mcgarry's
Personnel file
950
00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:43,595
To lillienfield
And claypool?
951
00:32:46,832 --> 00:32:47,666
( mumbles softly )
952
00:32:47,733 --> 00:32:49,201
What?
953
00:32:51,803 --> 00:32:53,705
Mr. Claypool is a family friend.
954
00:32:53,772 --> 00:32:55,307
Cathy!
955
00:33:00,179 --> 00:33:01,447
Take her back
To her office
956
00:33:01,513 --> 00:33:03,515
And stand there while
She cleans out her desk.
957
00:33:07,719 --> 00:33:09,355
Security is going
To throw you out
Of the building
958
00:33:09,421 --> 00:33:10,689
In 15 minutes.
959
00:33:16,928 --> 00:33:18,697
President:
Mrs. Landingham...
960
00:33:18,764 --> 00:33:21,833
You won't believe
This but I think I'd
Actually like a banana.
961
00:33:21,900 --> 00:33:23,569
I'm afraid not, sir, no.
962
00:33:23,635 --> 00:33:24,603
Why not?
963
00:33:24,670 --> 00:33:26,138
You were offered one
Earlier, sir
964
00:33:26,205 --> 00:33:27,473
And you were snippy.
965
00:33:27,539 --> 00:33:28,440
I wasn't snippy.
966
00:33:28,507 --> 00:33:30,542
I'm afraid you were,
Mr. President.
967
00:33:30,609 --> 00:33:31,943
C.J. Is waiting, sir.
968
00:33:32,010 --> 00:33:34,546
Thank you, mrs. Landingham.
969
00:33:37,883 --> 00:33:40,652
She withholds food from me.
970
00:33:40,719 --> 00:33:42,921
Mr. President, I hate to keep
Jumping up and down on this...
971
00:33:42,988 --> 00:33:44,790
The sex ed report.
Yes, sir.
972
00:33:44,856 --> 00:33:45,624
We're going to leave it alone
973
00:33:45,691 --> 00:33:46,825
For a while.
974
00:33:46,892 --> 00:33:48,060
Sir, when you say...
975
00:33:48,127 --> 00:33:49,795
After the midterm elections.
976
00:33:49,861 --> 00:33:51,163
That's a year from now.
Yeah.
977
00:33:51,230 --> 00:33:52,931
We're going to stick it
In a drawer?
978
00:33:52,998 --> 00:33:54,933
It's a pretty incendiary report.
979
00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:56,068
You don't think we have
An obligation
980
00:33:56,135 --> 00:33:57,736
To present the information...
981
00:33:57,803 --> 00:34:01,140
It's not going to play well
In the p.T.A. Meetings, c.J.
982
00:34:01,207 --> 00:34:03,008
It says we should be
Teaching kids to have sex.
983
00:34:03,075 --> 00:34:04,076
It does not.
984
00:34:04,143 --> 00:34:05,577
Mr. President--
Excuse me, sir--
985
00:34:05,644 --> 00:34:06,345
But it does not.
986
00:34:06,412 --> 00:34:07,879
Of course it doesn't.
987
00:34:07,946 --> 00:34:09,448
But that's how it's going
To play.
988
00:34:09,515 --> 00:34:11,016
The report is very direct, sir.
989
00:34:11,083 --> 00:34:13,285
It says withholding knowledge
About having sex
990
00:34:13,352 --> 00:34:15,321
Doesn't prevent teenagers
From having sex
991
00:34:15,387 --> 00:34:17,589
It prevents teenagers
From having sex safely.
992
00:34:17,656 --> 00:34:20,025
Offering information
About safe sex
993
00:34:20,092 --> 00:34:21,227
Doesn't increase
The rate of sex
994
00:34:21,293 --> 00:34:22,894
It increases the rate
Of protected sex.
995
00:34:22,961 --> 00:34:25,897
C.J...
We commissioned
This report, mr. President.
996
00:34:25,964 --> 00:34:26,798
These people are doctors.
997
00:34:26,865 --> 00:34:27,766
We asked them a question.
998
00:34:27,833 --> 00:34:29,268
How can we put it in a drawer
999
00:34:29,335 --> 00:34:30,502
'cause people aren't going
To like their answer?
1000
00:34:30,569 --> 00:34:32,404
C.J., getting it through
This congress--
1001
00:34:32,471 --> 00:34:34,005
A body which, at the moment
1002
00:34:34,072 --> 00:34:37,543
Will only give federal funding
To sex education programs
1003
00:34:37,609 --> 00:34:39,111
That teach abstinence only...
1004
00:34:39,178 --> 00:34:40,712
We have an enormous pulpit
From which...
1005
00:34:40,779 --> 00:34:42,681
And we will avail ourselves
Of that pulpit
1006
00:34:42,748 --> 00:34:45,617
But we will do it
After the midterm elections.
1007
00:34:49,988 --> 00:34:52,291
I think I understand.
1008
00:34:57,329 --> 00:35:00,366
I needed to get leo
Off the hook, c.J.
1009
00:35:00,432 --> 00:35:02,834
It's the deal josh and sam made.
1010
00:35:02,901 --> 00:35:05,304
Yes.
1011
00:35:05,371 --> 00:35:06,238
We'll deal with
It after
1012
00:35:06,305 --> 00:35:08,440
The midterm elections.
1013
00:35:09,675 --> 00:35:10,442
I understand.
1014
00:35:10,509 --> 00:35:13,111
I was hoping
You would.
1015
00:35:13,179 --> 00:35:14,513
Yes, sir.
1016
00:35:18,617 --> 00:35:20,552
Yes, sir.
1017
00:35:20,619 --> 00:35:24,956
Um, several members
Of the press already know
1018
00:35:25,023 --> 00:35:25,924
I think, the report
1019
00:35:25,991 --> 00:35:26,625
Came back to us and...
1020
00:35:26,692 --> 00:35:27,926
Yeah.
1021
00:35:27,993 --> 00:35:30,296
There's nothing wrong with
Telling them we got it.
1022
00:35:30,362 --> 00:35:31,930
I wouldn't make a big deal
Out of it.
1023
00:35:31,997 --> 00:35:34,132
We got it, we're looking at it,
We're studying it.
1024
00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:35,467
Throw it out with the trash.
1025
00:35:37,736 --> 00:35:38,170
Yes, sir.
1026
00:35:38,237 --> 00:35:40,005
Thanks, c.J.
1027
00:35:40,071 --> 00:35:42,341
Thank you. Sir.
1028
00:35:46,678 --> 00:35:47,879
Mr. President?
1029
00:35:49,281 --> 00:35:52,551
We can all be better teachers.
1030
00:35:53,819 --> 00:35:55,721
I know.
1031
00:36:17,676 --> 00:36:19,110
C.J.?
1032
00:36:19,177 --> 00:36:20,312
Hi.
1033
00:36:20,379 --> 00:36:21,713
What are you doing?
1034
00:36:21,780 --> 00:36:22,981
Hmm?
1035
00:36:23,048 --> 00:36:24,316
What are you doing?
1036
00:36:24,383 --> 00:36:28,487
I was, uh...
1037
00:36:28,554 --> 00:36:29,888
Nothing.
1038
00:36:29,955 --> 00:36:31,857
Okay.
1039
00:36:31,923 --> 00:36:32,891
Danny?
1040
00:36:32,958 --> 00:36:34,460
Mm-hmm?
1041
00:36:43,669 --> 00:36:45,904
If you call mr. And mrs. Lydell
In st. Paul...
1042
00:36:45,971 --> 00:36:47,973
Don't. Don't leak me a story.
1043
00:36:48,039 --> 00:36:49,575
I wasn't.
I've seen this look
1044
00:36:49,641 --> 00:36:51,710
On the face of four other
Press secretaries before you.
1045
00:36:51,777 --> 00:36:53,679
You got a story in the trash
This week that's a story.
1046
00:36:53,745 --> 00:36:56,815
You want it out there,
Someone said "No."
1047
00:36:56,882 --> 00:36:57,983
That happens sometimes.
1048
00:36:58,049 --> 00:37:00,051
Four others and you never took
A free lead?
1049
00:37:00,118 --> 00:37:02,120
I always took a free lead.
1050
00:37:02,187 --> 00:37:03,955
Not from you.
1051
00:37:04,022 --> 00:37:05,624
Why?
1052
00:37:05,691 --> 00:37:07,826
'cause 20 minutes from now
1053
00:37:07,893 --> 00:37:09,428
You're going to remember
You're a professional
1054
00:37:09,495 --> 00:37:11,663
And you're not going
To like me anymore.
1055
00:37:15,434 --> 00:37:17,669
What makes you think
I like you now?
1056
00:37:17,736 --> 00:37:18,904
I don't know.
1057
00:37:18,970 --> 00:37:20,872
But as long as you keep
Grabbing me and kissing me
1058
00:37:20,939 --> 00:37:22,674
What the hell do I care?
1059
00:37:22,741 --> 00:37:24,075
Good point.
1060
00:37:24,142 --> 00:37:24,843
If there's a story
1061
00:37:24,910 --> 00:37:25,844
I'll find it.
1062
00:37:25,911 --> 00:37:27,313
No, you won't.
1063
00:37:27,379 --> 00:37:29,948
How do you know?
1064
00:37:30,015 --> 00:37:33,719
'cause we've gotten
Very good at this.
1065
00:37:33,785 --> 00:37:35,321
Yes, you have.
1066
00:37:35,387 --> 00:37:36,888
Yes, we have.
1067
00:37:40,258 --> 00:37:41,727
Folks, take your seats please.
1068
00:37:41,793 --> 00:37:44,262
We're ready to start
The briefing.
1069
00:37:44,330 --> 00:37:45,130
Please take your seats.
1070
00:37:45,196 --> 00:37:46,097
( knocking ):
Leo.
1071
00:37:46,164 --> 00:37:47,132
Yeah?
1072
00:37:47,198 --> 00:37:48,867
Karen larsen is here.
1073
00:37:48,934 --> 00:37:51,537
Take your seats everybody.
Thanks.
1074
00:38:01,179 --> 00:38:02,848
I'm leo mcgarry.
1075
00:38:02,914 --> 00:38:05,283
Yes, sir.
1076
00:38:05,351 --> 00:38:06,718
I wanted to meet you.
1077
00:38:06,785 --> 00:38:09,355
And I wanted you to meet me.
1078
00:38:09,421 --> 00:38:11,723
Yes, sir.
1079
00:38:11,790 --> 00:38:14,993
Would you like to put down your
Things and talk for a minute?
1080
00:38:15,060 --> 00:38:16,728
If you don't, I understand.
1081
00:38:30,476 --> 00:38:32,210
When you read in
My personnel file
1082
00:38:32,277 --> 00:38:35,080
That I'd been treated
For alcohol and drug abuse
1083
00:38:35,146 --> 00:38:36,948
What went through your mind?
1084
00:38:39,618 --> 00:38:40,919
Karen, it's okay,
You can say it.
1085
00:38:40,986 --> 00:38:43,221
The worst thing I'm in power
To do is fire you
1086
00:38:43,288 --> 00:38:46,191
And I've already done that.
1087
00:38:46,257 --> 00:38:48,226
My father drank a lot.
1088
00:38:48,293 --> 00:38:50,228
So did mine.
1089
00:38:50,295 --> 00:38:52,464
In fact, he died from it.
1090
00:38:52,531 --> 00:38:54,733
Came home late
One night very drunk.
1091
00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:55,867
My mother was
Yelling at him.
1092
00:38:55,934 --> 00:38:57,168
I'm not sure about what
1093
00:38:57,235 --> 00:39:00,872
But I heard the yelling
Downstairs from my bedroom.
1094
00:39:00,939 --> 00:39:03,742
She came upstairs and he
Went out to the garage
1095
00:39:03,809 --> 00:39:05,877
And shot himself in the head.
1096
00:39:08,714 --> 00:39:11,850
It's that why you drank
And took drugs?
1097
00:39:11,917 --> 00:39:14,386
I drank and took drugs
Because I'm a drug addict
1098
00:39:14,453 --> 00:39:16,888
And an alcoholic.
1099
00:39:16,955 --> 00:39:21,192
How long did it take you
To get cured?
1100
00:39:21,259 --> 00:39:22,961
I'm not cured.
1101
00:39:23,028 --> 00:39:24,896
You don't get cured.
1102
00:39:24,963 --> 00:39:28,967
I haven't had a drink or a pill
In 6-1/2 years.
1103
00:39:29,034 --> 00:39:33,472
Which isn't to say
I won't have one tomorrow.
1104
00:39:35,140 --> 00:39:37,142
What would happen if you did?
1105
00:39:37,208 --> 00:39:39,478
I don't know.
1106
00:39:39,545 --> 00:39:41,580
But probably a nightmare
The likes of which
1107
00:39:41,647 --> 00:39:43,882
Both our fathers experienced.
1108
00:39:43,949 --> 00:39:45,817
And me, too.
1109
00:39:48,053 --> 00:39:49,821
And...
1110
00:39:49,888 --> 00:39:54,359
So, after 6-1/2 years you're
Still not allowed to have a
Drink?
1111
00:39:54,426 --> 00:39:57,663
The problem is
I don't want the drink
1112
00:39:57,729 --> 00:40:00,466
I want ten drinks.
1113
00:40:00,532 --> 00:40:03,902
Are things that bad?
1114
00:40:03,969 --> 00:40:05,804
No.
1115
00:40:05,871 --> 00:40:07,405
Then why?
1116
00:40:07,473 --> 00:40:10,108
'cause I'm an alcoholic.
1117
00:40:12,644 --> 00:40:13,979
I don't understand.
1118
00:40:14,045 --> 00:40:15,847
I know.
1119
00:40:15,914 --> 00:40:17,115
It's okay.
1120
00:40:17,182 --> 00:40:19,417
Hardly anyone does.
1121
00:40:19,485 --> 00:40:22,120
It's very hard to understand.
1122
00:40:28,994 --> 00:40:32,998
You're not like what I thought
You would be like.
1123
00:40:34,399 --> 00:40:37,402
You haven't answered
My question yet.
1124
00:40:37,469 --> 00:40:39,137
When you saw my personnel file
1125
00:40:39,204 --> 00:40:40,739
When you saw I'd been
Through treatment
1126
00:40:40,806 --> 00:40:42,641
What went through your mind?
1127
00:40:45,243 --> 00:40:47,579
My father used to...
1128
00:40:52,984 --> 00:40:57,656
You have all these important
Decisions to make in your job.
1129
00:40:57,723 --> 00:41:00,325
Every day. All the time.
1130
00:41:00,391 --> 00:41:04,863
Decisions I can't even...
1131
00:41:04,930 --> 00:41:07,899
You know, people's lives.
1132
00:41:16,407 --> 00:41:21,379
Karen, what you did
Caused a lot of problems.
1133
00:41:21,446 --> 00:41:24,049
For me,
For the president
1134
00:41:24,115 --> 00:41:27,653
For a lot of people
We don't even know.
1135
00:41:29,788 --> 00:41:32,991
But I'm not sure it wasn't
A little bit brave.
1136
00:41:40,065 --> 00:41:43,434
Did you like working
In the white house?
1137
00:41:43,501 --> 00:41:47,105
Yes, sir.
1138
00:41:47,172 --> 00:41:51,977
Okay. Then why don't you go
Unpack your carton
1139
00:41:52,043 --> 00:41:56,281
And you and I will give
Each other a second chance.
1140
00:42:01,987 --> 00:42:04,823
Okay.
1141
00:42:04,890 --> 00:42:07,525
Okay.
1142
00:42:33,051 --> 00:42:34,352
C.J. ( on television ):
Just a couple of quick things
More.
1143
00:42:34,419 --> 00:42:36,688
Chad margrudian has submitted
His resignation
1144
00:42:36,755 --> 00:42:37,923
To the vice president's office
1145
00:42:37,989 --> 00:42:40,091
Putting an end, I hope,
To that affair.
1146
00:42:40,158 --> 00:42:41,860
We expect the president's
Appointees
1147
00:42:41,927 --> 00:42:44,395
To the board of the corporation
For public broadcasting
1148
00:42:44,462 --> 00:42:46,364
To be confirmed early next week.
1149
00:42:46,431 --> 00:42:48,566
Oh, and I have a note here that
Jonathan and jennifer lydell
1150
00:42:48,634 --> 00:42:50,936
Won't be able to be at the bill
Signing ceremony this evening.
1151
00:42:51,002 --> 00:42:52,237
There was some family business
1152
00:42:52,303 --> 00:42:55,340
That required them
To go back to st. Paul.
