It is election day,
and millions of new yorkers

will be casting
their votes for mayor.

It is shaping up to be one
of the tightest races in years,

and nyl recently spoke
with advisors from both camps.

The Winston administration is
a joke that's gone on too long.

Nancy Wheeler
is incompetent.

She has no business
being in politics.

Harsh words
from those two.

I'd hate to see
what would happen

if you put them
in the same room together.

The polls open
in one hour.

We should get going.

Have you seen my boxers?

Oh, I'm wearing them.

Have you seen my thong?

Guys, guys, talk to me.

Early exit polls
are projecting

a 12-point victory
for the mayor.

We're expecting
record voter turnout

in the Bronx.
That should be good for us.

Right.

We should be talking
about this in the war room.

Okay, go.

Isn't this the bullpen?

Does the bullpen

usually have a color-coded map
or a red phone?

No.

Thank you.

Couldn't we just call it
the bullpen

and acknowledge
the new phone and map?

Guys, just give me
the war room.

Okay, it's the war room.

Now, this
is the hot phone.

It is to be used strictly

for election-related
emergencies.

[TELEPHONE BUZZES]

Here we go.
Carter, grab that.

I'm on it.
Heywood. Go.

No, I fell asleep.
Did you tape it?

I'll call you back.

Paul, Paul,
what are you doing?

You should be on your way
to the senior center

in forest hills
to explain the new ballot.

And remember, many of them
are hard of hearing.

Why did I get picked
to do that?

No reason.

Caitlin.

What are you doing?
Having a bagel.

Good. Put some cream cheese
on that.

Charlie, calm down.

I've set up
the mayor's press conference,

and I've already briefed him.
Everything's taken care of.

I know. I'm sorry.
I'm just a little nervous.

I really want
to win this thing.

I know. We all do.

Look, I got you
a little present.

It's a picture of the staff
at your birthday party.

Read the inscription.

"Four more years"?

I don't want this.
We haven't won yet.

There's still a million things
that can go wrong.

Charlie, I always say
if you think positively

about something,
you can make it happen.

Not that.

[SIGHS]

Ha ha ha. Hi. Hi.

[WHISPERS] Where do we stand
on proposition 48?

[WHISPERS] Against.

What about 37?

[WHISPERS] For.

Wheeler or Winston?

Just kidding.

Hey, stranger.

Want to join
the voting booth club?

I'm already a member.

Want to join
the over-behind-that-table club?

I would, but Wheeler's
on her way in.

Guess you'll have to
wait till tonight

in my hotel room.

How can you have
a relationship

based entirely on sex?

Our secret...

lack of communication.

Ah...

Charlie, Caitlin,
I've got some big news.

I'm going to ask Claire
to be my wife.

Oh, my God!
That's so amazing!

Why do women go nuts when they
hear anything about marriage?

That's not true.

I got her a 4-carat ring...

Oh, my God!
That's so romantic!

And I put it
in a fortune cookie,

and I'm going to surprise her
today at lunch.

Sir, you are
on a very tight schedule.

Don't worry, Charlie.
We have a comfortable lead.

I'm going to win
my second term as mayor,

and I'm going to do it
with my fianc?e by my side.

I said "fianc?e."

Oh, sorry.
Oh, my God!

Good morning.
My name is Paul lassiter.

Hey, uh,
we can hear, you know?

Yeah, yeah. Certainly.

Now, as you can see,

each candidate's name is
clearly marked on the ballot.

There's
mayor Randall Winston.

Below him
is Nancy Wheeler,

and below her,
krazy Kenny Cooper,

who has pledged
to spend his entire term

on rollerblades.

Now, if you want to vote
for Randall Winston,

just punch the box

like this.

I-I'm sorry.
Not... not the box.

The box on the left,
like that. Yes.

On your left or our left?
It's...

it's my left. My left, it would be your right.
Hold on. Wait a minute. Yes.

Your right, but it's the box
on the left.

Which one is it?
Yours. Mine.

Um, okay, you know what?

I'm going
to call the red phone

just to double-check.

I mean, can you believe it?

The whole time,
he was cheating on Steve.

[BUSY SIGNAL]

Remember...

Not this box. This box.

You get the picture.

So what's the big surprise?

Patience, my dear.

Oh, somebody wrote
on my poster.

Excuse me.
What do these characters mean?

It says, "Winston is
a man of great wisdom

and has the strength
of 10 tigers."

What can I say?
They love me.

Follow me.

Hi.

Hi.

I'm taking donations
to help build

a community center
for underprivileged children.

That sounds like
a worthy cause.

$100, $200...

Sorry.
Only got the big boys.

Well,
I'll tell you what.

Why don't we start
with a fortune cookie?

They're for dessert.
Open it.

I think you'll find
the contents very interesting.

Randall, this is amazing.

[CHUCKLES]

I do love to travel.

What'd you do
with my cookie?

Oh, my God.
I don't believe it.

Yes.

Yes, I will marry you.

That's mine.

Oh, thank God.

Claire,

I'd given up on trying
to find true happiness,

but since...

since you've come
into my life,

you've filled it
with such romance and joy...

Claire,
will you be my wife?

You'll make me
the happiest man on earth

if you just say
that one magic word.

No.

That's not it.
Try again.

Randall...

I've loved
our time together,

but I can't marry you.

Why not?

'Cause you're the mayor of New York.
Yeah?

I don't want to live my life
in the press.

I mean, let's face it...

you're never going to be able
to draw the line

between politician
and husband.

I categorically deny
that accusation.

You're doing it right now.

You can't be honest
with people.

You just say what you think
they want to hear.

Um...

It's just not meant to be.

I'm just not ready
to get married.

Save it. We're through.

[PLINK]

Here he comes, guys.
Get ready.

Congratulations!

She said no
and walked out of my life.

Who needs her?

What happened?

She doesn't want
to marry a politician.

She says
we're all dishonest.

Well, I wasn't the one
faking orgasms.

Well, there was that one time,
but I was tired.

Charlie, maybe she's right.

Maybe I need to start
being more honest.

Uh, sir, you seem really upset. Maybe
you shouldn't do this press conference.

No, I'm fine, Charlie.
Let's... let's go.

Ah. Here's the mayor.

Hi.

Ha ha.

Listen, I'm sorry I was late.

I had a very important meeting
with...

no one.

The truth is
I just got dumped,

and I was sitting
in my office

staring out the window
listening to light jazz.

[REPORTERS MURMURING]

Sir, what are you doing?

Being honest for a change,
and it feels right.

I know. It's wrong...
very wrong.

Mr. mayor, you promised
to modernize all subway cars

without raising transit fares.
How can you do both?

I can't. I lied.

Good one, sir.

Ha ha.
Good election day joke.

Ha ha ha ha.

Please stop.

Look, come on, we all know
that's the way the game works.

I tell you
what you want to hear,

I get four more years
in the mansion,

and then
I just do the best I can.

So...

Next question.

Yeah, we're having trouble
hearing you, sir.

Let me check
your microphone.

Ah.

Here's the problem.

No, no, no, no, no. When the
mayor said he was raising taxes,

he was talking
about his foster child...

Cynthia taxes.

Yes, he's going to raise her
until she's 12% old.

Hello?

Bad news.

Now Wheeler's leading
by 2,000 votes.

Oh, there's got to be
something we can do.

Charlie,
the polls are closed.

All we can do now is wait
and try to remain calm.

Oh, my God!
Aah! We're losing!

We're all going
to be out of a job.

I'm not qualified
to do anything else.

I can barely do this.

I can't believe I said
all those things to the press.

I was so distraught
over Claire,

I let my emotions
affect my judgment.

Sir, now that you and Claire
have broken up,

I just have to wonder...

How was she?

Another time.

Look, the election
is not over yet.

She's right. Two districts
still haven't reported...

Chinatown,
which is pro-Wheeler,

and forest hills,
which is pro-Winston.

If we do well in forest hills,
we've still got a shot.

STUART: Hey, look,
they got an update.

In a shocking
election night development,

the forest hills district
has just been won

by a fringe candidate
known as krazy Kenny Cooper.

Apparently, this was the result
of confusion over the ballot.

Some jerk came down here
to explain the ballot.

Mark the left,
mark the right...

we didn't know
what the hell was going on.

The Winston administration has to be
asking themselves, what went wrong?

Wow.

Krazy Kenny must have really
gotten his message across.

What are you doing?

It's over.

I was so stupid
to get my hopes up.

I'm going
to go see Jennifer.

Of course.
Take the easy way out.

Oh, hey, guys.

Look, before I go
make my concession speech,

it would mean a lot to me

if we could
gather here for a toast.

We'd love to, sir.

You know,
when I was a teenager,

my grandfather,
on his deathbed,

gave me
a rare bottle of champagne.

His only request

was that I save it
for a special moment

and share it
with the people that I love.

And you saved it
for this moment with us?

No, I drank it that night
in the woods,

but this stuff's
pretty good, too.

You know...

We've accomplished a lot
in our time here.

We should be very proud.

Tonight, at least
we'll all be together.

I'll see you later.

Charlie,
you can't just leave.

He wants us around
for the toast.

Why, so we can all
sit around

and be miserable
together?

The job's done.
There's nothing left to say.

How about "goodbye"?

How about
"here's what you meant to me"?

Caitlin, I'm not married to these people.
I just work with them.

Charlie, you can't
treat these people

like they're one
of your shallow relationships.

They mean more to you
than that.

And these people
need you right now,

and whether you want
to admit it or not,

you need them, too.

You mean these people?

I'd like 50 large pizzas
delivered

to Nancy Wheeler's
campaign headquarters.

These guys are going
to feel so stupid. Yeah.

My credit card number
is 4071...

0022...

I'm outta here.

I know today must have
been upsetting for you,

so if you need some time
before we jump into bed,

I understand.

Well, thanks.
It might help.

Okay. I'm good.

Let's get set up here.

Advil?

Knee brace?

Safety goggles?

At my age,

I need the same equipment
for racquetball and sex.

Oh, what's this?

Oh, Caitlin must have
put that in there.

It's a picture of me
and my staff

from my birthday dinner.

Anyway...

Let's get started.

That advil ain't going
to last forever.

Ha ha.

Did I tickle you?

No, I was just thinking
about the time

that the mayor wanted
to close down a strip club

and Stuart chained himself
to the brass pole.

Let's not talk
about Stuart right now.

If I remember correctly,

he made 50 bucks in tips.

Do you want
to fool around,

or do you want to talk
about your friends all night?

You're right.

You deserve
my full attention.

Ooh. That's better.

Ha ha ha.

Now what?

I'm just thinking
about the time

that Paul
tried to breed pigeons.

Okay. What's going on?

I'm sorry. My mind
is somewhere else right now.

Well, you're
sort of freaking me out.

You're freaked out?
We're about to have sex,

and all I can think about
is Paul.

Where are you going?

I need to be
with those guys right now.

Charlie, you don't really
want to walk out that door.

You think you know me,
but you don't.

You don't know
what makes me tick.

That's a very good guess.

[TELEPHONE RINGS]

[LAUGHING]

Hey, it worked.

Did you do this? We may
have to leave the place,

but it doesn't mean we have to
make it easy on the new guys.

I krazy glued some phones,

took some keys
off a few keyboards.

Pretty good stuff, huh?

You realize
we still have to work here

for a few more weeks.

Really?

Don't drink the coffee.

Well...

I can't believe
this is it.

Wonder where we'll all be
in a year.

I know where I'll be...

out of politics,
living in Vermont.

I'll settle down
in a quiet little village,

maybe buy
an old rundown cabin,

and I'll fix it up
with my own hands

and convert it
into an adult bookstore.

Wonder what I'll be doing.

Probably working
a 9:00 to 5:00 job,

making a midlevel salary
with little hope of promotion.

Really?
Thanks, Carter.

Ugh!

Oh, this coffee is weak.

Ha ha. Gotcha.

All right, everybody,
let's grab a glass.

Where's Charlie?

Oh, um, he had a personal thing
he couldn't get out of.

Oh, that's too bad.

Well, our time here
is coming to an end,

but the good news is

now we can start
making some real money.

I mean, I don't know what
your publishers are telling you,

but I'm looking
at a 7-figure book deal.

Thanks, sir.
I'll remember that

when they're repossessing
my television.

You know,
in our time here,

we have given
the citizens of New York

less crime, cleaner streets,
and much better quality of life,

but when I look back
on this administration,

the thing that I'm going
to miss the most

is working
with all of you.

Hold on, sir.

Something's going on.

In a surprising turn of events,

the pro-Wheeler district
of Chinatown

has seen a sudden surge
of votes for Winston.

In fact, the mayor has become
so popular there,

they've decided to name a new
community center after him.

Why do they like you
so much in Chinatown?

They're obviously responding
to my strong leadership.

Sir...

Is that little girl holding
your 4-carat engagement ring?

Oh, my God!
It's so beautiful!

Leadership,
$100,000 ring...

who cares
what they're responding to?

The point is,
I'm their guy.

There you have it.
In a nail-biter of an election,

Randall Winston
is re-elected mayor.

[ALL CHEERING]

Mayor Winston,
would you care to comment

on your amazing comeback?

Sorry, the mayor doesn't
have anything prepared.

Oh, no, I've done this
a million times.

I can handle this.

Sorry, I don't
have anything prepared.

[ALL LAUGHING]

Hey, Charlie,
did you hear?

Wait, wait, wait.

I have something
I want to say.

But, Charlie...
Carter, please.

I need to get this out.

Usually when a job ends,

I just take off
without saying goodbye.

No, no, Charlie, what... sir, please.
I'm sorry.

But you people are...

you're too important to me.

Let's get this.

And since we're not going
to be seeing each other

much longer, I want you all
to know how I feel.

We should tell him.

My parents...
they never encouraged me

to express myself
emotionally.

Never mind.

I don't want to be
that guy anymore.

If I ran out
on you tonight,

it's because I couldn't stand
the thought of losing you.

Bottom line, I...

I, uh...

CARTER: Go ahead, Charlie.
You can say it.

I love you guys.

There.

I said it.

It wasn't easy,

but you're the only people
in the world

I'd be comfortable enough
to say that in front of.

Do you guys have any idea
how much you mean to me?

Earlier tonight, I was in bed
with a beautiful woman,

and all I could think about
was this guy.

Thanks, buddy.

[ALL LAUGHING]

Charlie, we won.

We won?

Okay, nothing I said
leaves this room.

It's a little late for that.

I hate you guys.

[ALL LAUGH]

[TELEPHONE BUZZES]

Ha ha!
Gotcha!

Sit, ubu, sit.
Good dog.

(BARKING)

Moo.
