1
00:00:06,853 --> 00:00:08,491
Previously, on The West Wing:
2
00:00:08,693 --> 00:00:12,606
You never want people to see
how you make laws or sausages.
3
00:00:12,813 --> 00:00:15,805
-l'm voting no.
-lt's all we could get now.
4
00:00:16,053 --> 00:00:17,247
You didn't work hard enough.
5
00:00:17,453 --> 00:00:20,286
You have to let me protect you
and the president.
6
00:00:20,493 --> 00:00:24,008
The president doesn't hold grudges.
He pays me to.
7
00:00:24,213 --> 00:00:26,773
There's no one in the world
l don't hate.
8
00:00:26,973 --> 00:00:29,282
Your mom was killed
with a .38 revolver.
9
00:00:29,493 --> 00:00:33,406
We haven't had success yet
having those weapons banned.
10
00:00:33,613 --> 00:00:35,524
-You want to help us?
-Yes, sir.
11
00:00:40,693 --> 00:00:43,002
Oh, man, l'm sorry.
12
00:00:44,293 --> 00:00:45,806
Oh, yeah!
13
00:00:46,573 --> 00:00:49,246
-That's how you do it.
-Game point.
14
00:00:49,453 --> 00:00:51,409
-You look winded.
-l'm fine.
15
00:00:51,613 --> 00:00:54,332
-You want to sit out?
-Why would l do that?
16
00:00:54,533 --> 00:00:56,808
People will be mad if we kill you.
17
00:00:57,613 --> 00:00:59,569
-Game point, let's go.
-Sir--
18
00:00:59,773 --> 00:01:02,412
-l'm playing.
-There's no shame in quitting.
19
00:01:02,613 --> 00:01:05,650
Just admit l'm a better athlete
and slink away.
20
00:01:06,453 --> 00:01:08,364
-Take it out.
-You're playing?
21
00:01:08,573 --> 00:01:12,168
-Take the ball out!
-This is a perfect metaphor.
22
00:01:12,613 --> 00:01:16,891
After you're gone, and poets
write ''The Legend of Josiah Bartlet'' . . .
23
00:01:17,093 --> 00:01:19,482
. . .let them make you a tragic figure.
24
00:01:19,693 --> 00:01:22,765
''He had the tools for greatness. . .
25
00:01:23,013 --> 00:01:28,246
. . .but his better angels were silenced
by his obsessive need to win. ''
26
00:01:28,453 --> 00:01:31,331
-You wanna play or write my eulogy?
-Honestly?
27
00:01:31,533 --> 00:01:33,330
Mr. Grant?
28
00:01:36,293 --> 00:01:38,602
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
29
00:01:38,813 --> 00:01:41,805
-Who's this?
-l'm making a substitution.
30
00:01:42,013 --> 00:01:44,971
-Grant's a new member of my team.
-A ringer.
31
00:01:45,173 --> 00:01:47,323
Mr. Grant is a federal employee.
32
00:01:47,773 --> 00:01:51,083
lt's not that you cheat,
it's how bad you are at it.
33
00:01:51,333 --> 00:01:53,893
-l beg your pardon.
-Toby's got a point.
34
00:01:54,093 --> 00:01:55,082
When did l cheat?
35
00:01:55,293 --> 00:01:59,809
You told us your tennis partner
worked at the American Consulate.
36
00:02:00,013 --> 00:02:02,129
-She did!
-lt was Steffi Graf!
37
00:02:02,333 --> 00:02:04,801
l admit that she bore a resemblance--
38
00:02:05,013 --> 00:02:09,564
You think l won't recognize
Steffi Graf when she's serving at me?
39
00:02:09,773 --> 00:02:13,129
She's won championships,
we've seen her photograph.
40
00:02:13,333 --> 00:02:17,372
Be that as it may,
Toby, Josh, Charlie. . .
41
00:02:17,973 --> 00:02:20,248
. . .let me introduce
Mr. Rodney Grant. . .
42
00:02:20,453 --> 00:02:23,809
. . .from the President's Council
on Physical Fitness.
43
00:02:24,013 --> 00:02:25,685
Game point, let's go!
44
00:02:25,893 --> 00:02:27,929
Whoa, not so fast.
45
00:02:28,133 --> 00:02:30,169
Your name sounds familiar.
46
00:02:30,653 --> 00:02:34,202
Before you joined up the
Council on Physical Fitness. . .
47
00:02:34,413 --> 00:02:38,247
. . .which the president would do well
to avail himself of. . .
48
00:02:38,933 --> 00:02:41,811
. . .is it possible you played
organized ball?
49
00:02:42,453 --> 00:02:44,091
l used to play a little.
50
00:02:44,293 --> 00:02:46,284
-And where was that?
-l'm sorry?
51
00:02:46,493 --> 00:02:49,087
-Where would that be?
-Duke.
52
00:02:50,893 --> 00:02:54,852
-This guy was in the Final Four!
-Game point, let's go!
53
00:02:55,053 --> 00:02:56,964
l'm taking you to the hole.
54
00:02:58,733 --> 00:03:00,291
You got it!
55
00:03:02,253 --> 00:03:04,892
Let the poets write about
that, Byron.
56
00:03:06,533 --> 00:03:09,093
Charlie, guard the new guy.
57
00:03:58,773 --> 00:04:01,162
-We have a staff meeting.
-l'm going.
58
00:04:01,373 --> 00:04:05,048
-l'm just telling you.
-You see that's where l'm going.
59
00:04:05,253 --> 00:04:09,007
-lsn't it adorable?
-That you seek to control me? Love it.
60
00:04:09,213 --> 00:04:10,965
-Donald hasn't called.
-Who?
61
00:04:11,173 --> 00:04:13,368
Donald.
From the thing.
62
00:04:13,653 --> 00:04:16,121
Can we be clear about my interest. . .
63
00:04:16,333 --> 00:04:19,291
. . .in the local Gomers that you see. . .
64
00:04:19,493 --> 00:04:22,610
. . .in the free time you create
by not working?
65
00:04:22,813 --> 00:04:24,849
-Excuse me?
-You work very hard.
66
00:04:25,053 --> 00:04:26,964
-And l am?
-Not controlling.
67
00:04:27,173 --> 00:04:28,925
-You have a meeting.
-Okay.
68
00:04:29,133 --> 00:04:31,089
-There's another thing.
-What?
69
00:04:31,293 --> 00:04:33,523
Hang on, here it is.
70
00:04:33,733 --> 00:04:37,931
Leo wants you to meet Lacey
from the NSC in his office.
71
00:04:38,133 --> 00:04:39,612
-Thanks.
-What is it?
72
00:04:39,813 --> 00:04:43,567
This is the White House,
so it's probably not important.
73
00:04:43,773 --> 00:04:46,128
l want you to read this article.
74
00:04:46,333 --> 00:04:48,642
-What's it about?
-Smallpox.
75
00:04:48,853 --> 00:04:53,369
-The disease?
-No, the dessert. Yes, the disease!
76
00:04:53,573 --> 00:04:56,087
-We do it every month.
-We missed a few.
77
00:04:56,293 --> 00:04:58,853
We try to do it
the first of every month.
78
00:04:59,053 --> 00:05:00,691
Twice in 1 2 months.
79
00:05:00,893 --> 00:05:03,123
-We're behind.
-Behind on what?
80
00:05:03,333 --> 00:05:06,769
lt's People Who Want
to Discuss Things. . .
81
00:05:06,973 --> 00:05:09,885
. . .That We Could Care
Less About Day.
82
00:05:10,093 --> 00:05:11,526
That sounds goofy.
83
00:05:11,733 --> 00:05:15,521
lt's not so bad. Talk to them,
give them a souvenir pen. . . .
84
00:05:16,093 --> 00:05:21,565
-This isn't a waste of time?
-Yes, but it's one of Leo's policies.
85
00:05:21,773 --> 00:05:25,163
-Why?
-Sadly, you're about to find out.
86
00:05:25,373 --> 00:05:30,128
Andrew Jackson, in the main foyer,
had a big block of cheese.
87
00:05:30,613 --> 00:05:34,242
l am making a mental list
of those who are snickering.
88
00:05:34,453 --> 00:05:38,924
Even as l speak,
l'm preparing appropriate retribution.
89
00:05:39,133 --> 00:05:42,125
The block of cheese was huge,
over 2 tons.
90
00:05:42,333 --> 00:05:45,211
lt was there
for anyone who might be hungry.
91
00:05:45,413 --> 00:05:50,328
Let's spend our time plotting against
a country that can't defend itself.
92
00:05:50,533 --> 00:05:54,208
Later. Right now l'm talking
about President Jackson.
93
00:05:54,413 --> 00:05:57,962
-You're talking about cheese.
-Sam goes on my list.
94
00:05:58,173 --> 00:06:01,165
-What about Toby?
-l'm unpredictable.
95
00:06:01,653 --> 00:06:04,565
The White House
belongs to the people. . .
96
00:06:04,773 --> 00:06:07,890
. . .so Jackson invited those
who wished an audience.
97
00:06:08,093 --> 00:06:10,891
Then he made them eat
2 tons of cheese.
98
00:06:11,093 --> 00:06:14,244
-ln that spirit--
-Mandy doesn't go on the list?
99
00:06:14,853 --> 00:06:17,890
-Mandy's new.
-So it's just me on the list?
100
00:06:18,573 --> 00:06:24,205
lt is in the spirit of Andrew Jackson
that l ask senior staff. . .
101
00:06:24,413 --> 00:06:30,045
. . .to meet with people who have
a hard time getting our attention.
102
00:06:30,253 --> 00:06:35,168
l know the more jaded among you
see this as beneath you.
103
00:06:36,013 --> 00:06:41,770
But listening to the voices of passion
in Americans is beneath no one.
104
00:06:42,013 --> 00:06:44,527
Surely not the people's servants.
105
00:06:44,733 --> 00:06:47,293
-ls it Total Crackpot Day again?
-Yes.
106
00:06:47,493 --> 00:06:49,848
Note that Josh isn't on the list.
107
00:06:50,053 --> 00:06:52,328
-You have a thing right now.
-Yeah.
108
00:06:52,533 --> 00:06:55,445
Hand out those appointments.
109
00:06:55,653 --> 00:07:00,852
-What's up?
-That's for ''Total Crackpot Day. ''
110
00:07:01,973 --> 00:07:04,533
Second of all,
this is Jonathan Lacey.
111
00:07:05,333 --> 00:07:08,370
Good to meet you.
Mr. McGarry, would you mind?
112
00:07:10,133 --> 00:07:13,762
-l know you're busy.
-What can l do for you?
113
00:07:13,973 --> 00:07:16,203
Keep this card at all times.
114
00:07:16,413 --> 00:07:21,168
-lf you lose it, you call us.
-Who's ''us''?
115
00:07:21,373 --> 00:07:24,365
l'm sorry, l thought you knew.
l'm with the NSC.
116
00:07:24,573 --> 00:07:26,882
l meant, what's the card do?
117
00:07:27,333 --> 00:07:30,131
lt says where to go
during a nuclear attack.
118
00:07:31,733 --> 00:07:33,246
You're kidding me.
119
00:07:33,453 --> 00:07:35,364
We want you
on Air Force One. . .
120
00:07:35,573 --> 00:07:39,088
. . .or in an underground bunker
as quickly as possible.
121
00:07:40,173 --> 00:07:42,289
Sure. Well. . . .
122
00:07:44,613 --> 00:07:47,730
Okay, l don't know what to say.
123
00:07:47,933 --> 00:07:49,491
l guess that's it, then.
124
00:07:49,693 --> 00:07:54,050
-lf you have questions, call me.
-Sure.
125
00:07:55,133 --> 00:07:57,727
My staff goes with me,
or do they--
126
00:08:01,613 --> 00:08:04,923
Oh, sorry.
You know what, l just got it.
127
00:08:05,133 --> 00:08:06,612
Okay.
128
00:08:07,253 --> 00:08:12,008
l'll stick this right next
to my video club membership. . .
129
00:08:12,213 --> 00:08:16,650
. . .and there's no reason
my staff ever has to know about it.
130
00:08:16,853 --> 00:08:19,606
The best thing to do is
to forget about it.
131
00:08:20,053 --> 00:08:21,884
l'll go now.
132
00:08:36,373 --> 00:08:39,012
The rise in the
Producer's Price lndex. . .
133
00:08:39,213 --> 00:08:41,568
. . .coupled with
the tight labor market. . .
134
00:08:41,773 --> 00:08:45,083
. . .have caused inflation concerns.
Are you worried?
135
00:08:45,293 --> 00:08:47,932
No, Helen.
Our economy is fundamentally--
136
00:08:49,653 --> 00:08:53,009
l wasn't Helen there.
l was Sandy King.
137
00:08:53,213 --> 00:08:56,205
-The Miami Herald?
-She moved to the Sun-Times.
138
00:08:56,413 --> 00:08:59,962
-That sounded like your Helen.
-Are you concerned?
139
00:09:00,333 --> 00:09:03,928
Not at all. Our economy
remains fundamentally strong. . .
140
00:09:04,133 --> 00:09:08,729
. . .shown by the drop in unemployment.
lt's a cause for satisfaction.
141
00:09:08,933 --> 00:09:12,562
A solitary spike in the PPl
is not cause for overreaction.
142
00:09:12,773 --> 00:09:16,322
Also, there's been no increase
in wholesale prices.
143
00:09:16,533 --> 00:09:19,650
lf you could see clear
to not answer the question. . .
144
00:09:19,853 --> 00:09:23,766
. . .like a professor with a stick up
his butt, that'd be good.
145
00:09:23,973 --> 00:09:28,125
l am a professor with a
stick up my butt, but l'll do my best.
146
00:09:28,573 --> 00:09:30,609
-That's it for the economy.
-Guns.
147
00:09:30,933 --> 00:09:33,970
-We don't need to.
-They'll ask about guns.
148
00:09:34,173 --> 00:09:36,846
l know they'll ask,
l'm saying l'm set.
149
00:09:37,053 --> 00:09:40,090
-A question or two.
-ls it time for my scolding?
150
00:09:40,293 --> 00:09:42,761
-Are we having this argument?
-Sir?
151
00:09:42,973 --> 00:09:45,123
Let's do guns, Sam.
152
00:09:45,333 --> 00:09:48,962
ls there any reason to believe
this weapons ban bill. . .
153
00:09:49,173 --> 00:09:52,290
-. . .will have any reduction in crime?
-Yes. Next.
154
00:09:53,333 --> 00:09:56,450
Mr. Zeigler, you have a follow-up?
155
00:09:56,653 --> 00:10:00,009
We're lucky to get the question
and you blow it off?
156
00:10:00,453 --> 00:10:03,650
-Yes.
-With due respect, may l ask why?
157
00:10:04,293 --> 00:10:07,330
-l'm weak-willed and stupid.
-Let's do this later.
158
00:10:07,533 --> 00:10:10,730
-We talked.
-l talked it over with other people.
159
00:10:10,933 --> 00:10:14,243
-Which people?
-l have lots of other people.
160
00:10:14,453 --> 00:10:16,967
We are missing a huge opportunity.
161
00:10:20,733 --> 00:10:22,325
What's going on?
162
00:10:25,693 --> 00:10:28,765
-We're doing the thing.
-Why aren't you in there?
163
00:10:28,973 --> 00:10:33,649
-l was just going in.
-How are Toby and the president?
164
00:10:33,853 --> 00:10:39,166
-They are having a disagreement.
-A disagreement or a fight?
165
00:10:39,373 --> 00:10:43,127
-lt certainly has the potential--
-For God's sake, Toby!
166
00:10:43,333 --> 00:10:45,164
There we go.
167
00:10:46,253 --> 00:10:47,732
Let's go in.
168
00:10:48,773 --> 00:10:51,651
Josh, let's go in.
169
00:10:51,853 --> 00:10:54,845
-Sir?
-l won't say the bill is worthless.
170
00:10:55,053 --> 00:10:57,886
lf we can just admit
its weaknesses, why not?
171
00:10:58,093 --> 00:11:03,372
lt'll anger the left, energize the
right and the middle will feel played.
172
00:11:03,573 --> 00:11:05,723
Sorry, did you want to answer?
173
00:11:05,933 --> 00:11:08,572
l'd have said, ''Because l said so. ''
174
00:11:08,773 --> 00:11:11,526
Why take a victory
and declare defeat?
175
00:11:11,733 --> 00:11:14,247
Toby, by changing some words--
176
00:11:14,453 --> 00:11:17,365
-The world moves on a few words.
-Your point?
177
00:11:17,573 --> 00:11:20,212
l have many.
l choose not to make them now.
178
00:11:20,413 --> 00:11:24,884
On behalf of everybody here,
let me say that that's a relief.
179
00:11:25,093 --> 00:11:27,084
-Excuse me, Leo.
-Yes?
180
00:11:27,293 --> 00:11:29,249
My cheese appointment is here. . .
181
00:11:29,453 --> 00:11:32,570
-. . .but the conference takes priority.
-l agree.
182
00:11:32,773 --> 00:11:34,968
No!
183
00:11:35,173 --> 00:11:36,845
You won't get out of it.
184
00:11:37,053 --> 00:11:40,409
-This is an important conference.
-lt's unimportant.
185
00:11:40,613 --> 00:11:45,129
-lt's about our future.
-lt's about not having one lately.
186
00:11:45,373 --> 00:11:46,488
Sam, go.
187
00:11:46,693 --> 00:11:48,968
-Mr. President?
-We're going too.
188
00:11:49,173 --> 00:11:53,007
-Sir?
-We'll pick this up this afternoon.
189
00:11:54,213 --> 00:11:56,727
You're from
United States Space Command.
190
00:11:56,933 --> 00:11:59,128
-Few know about us.
-My first time.
191
00:11:59,333 --> 00:12:03,167
-We're a little nerdy, l'll admit.
-You camouflage it well.
192
00:12:03,573 --> 00:12:06,133
-l'm used to that.
-What can l do?
193
00:12:06,333 --> 00:12:08,369
-ln a nutshell?
-So to speak.
194
00:12:08,573 --> 00:12:12,088
We'd like you to pay
more attention to UFOs.
195
00:12:13,573 --> 00:12:16,645
-Are we paying any attention at all?
-No.
196
00:12:16,853 --> 00:12:20,562
We have enough trouble
with the first lady's Ouija board.
197
00:12:20,773 --> 00:12:23,287
l'd like to show the president data. . .
198
00:12:23,493 --> 00:12:26,451
. . .on possible
extraterrestrial contact.
199
00:12:26,653 --> 00:12:28,769
-l can't do that.
-Why not?
200
00:12:29,253 --> 00:12:33,531
He'll either yell or laugh at me.
Either way is bad for me.
201
00:12:34,213 --> 00:12:37,444
This morning, at 6:35 a.m. . .
202
00:12:37,653 --> 00:12:42,044
. . .air traffic control in Honolulu
picked up a UFO. . .
203
00:12:42,253 --> 00:12:45,768
. . .flying east across the Pacific,
towards California.
204
00:12:45,973 --> 00:12:48,362
Navy jets have been in the area. . .
205
00:12:48,573 --> 00:12:51,883
. . .and have been unable
to establish visual contact.
206
00:12:52,093 --> 00:12:53,924
These things go unexplained.
207
00:12:54,133 --> 00:12:56,647
Shouldn't you take this
to the president?
208
00:12:56,853 --> 00:12:59,811
-No.
-Again, may l ask why not?
209
00:13:00,013 --> 00:13:03,403
There are levels in
our Air Defense Command.
210
00:13:03,613 --> 00:13:07,731
To jump from a radar officer to the
president skips levels.
211
00:13:07,933 --> 00:13:11,642
-Like what?
-Like the Pentagon and therapy.
212
00:13:11,853 --> 00:13:14,890
-Okay, l can see that--
-No hard feelings. . .
213
00:13:15,093 --> 00:13:17,288
. . .but l can't ask the president. . .
214
00:13:17,493 --> 00:13:20,929
. . .to put down the budget surplus
because of UFOs.
215
00:13:21,133 --> 00:13:24,284
Something's heading east
over the Pacific.
216
00:13:24,493 --> 00:13:27,644
lt's in and out of our radar,
we can't see it.
217
00:13:27,853 --> 00:13:30,925
lt's up there right now.
l leave you with that.
218
00:13:31,133 --> 00:13:34,887
l hope that you don't feel
that you've wasted your time.
219
00:13:35,093 --> 00:13:36,572
Here's a pen.
220
00:13:36,773 --> 00:13:40,288
The president isn't wild about
Posner's fundraiser. . .
221
00:13:40,493 --> 00:13:43,803
. . .but l think we can't pass.
Where are you on this?
222
00:13:44,013 --> 00:13:47,892
Don't worry about me,
you have to worry about Toby.
223
00:13:48,093 --> 00:13:51,881
-That's why l'm shoring up support.
-l'm in.
224
00:13:53,253 --> 00:13:55,608
They sent pictures
of the Malibu place.
225
00:13:55,813 --> 00:13:59,010
-The one from the primary?
-No, he bought another.
226
00:13:59,213 --> 00:14:02,330
Where did Robert Benigni
push me into the pool?
227
00:14:02,533 --> 00:14:05,491
That was Larry Posner's old place.
228
00:14:05,893 --> 00:14:10,250
-lf it gets a vote, isn't it worth it?
-lf Benigni could vote here.
229
00:14:10,453 --> 00:14:14,651
Since he's ltalian, l'm just a wet
girl in a Donna Karan dress.
230
00:14:14,853 --> 00:14:17,413
l'm the only one
who isn't an economist.
231
00:14:17,613 --> 00:14:20,252
But it seems to me
the annual budget. . .
232
00:14:20,453 --> 00:14:24,207
. . .is found either in balance,
in deficit, or in surplus.
233
00:14:24,413 --> 00:14:28,884
l don't know how to tell Congress,
much less 8th grade graduates. . .
234
00:14:29,093 --> 00:14:31,163
. . .that there's any in-between.
235
00:14:31,373 --> 00:14:34,570
He's not talking about anything
being off-budget.
236
00:14:34,773 --> 00:14:38,163
-Especially long-term capital outlays.
-You lost me.
237
00:14:38,373 --> 00:14:41,285
ln 1 991 , the budget had a
deficit of $22 billion.
238
00:14:41,493 --> 00:14:45,247
But the national debt rose
from 5.2 trillion to 5.4 trillion. . .
239
00:14:45,453 --> 00:14:46,966
. . .in the same year.
240
00:14:47,173 --> 00:14:53,646
That's a debt increase of $ 1 88 billion
against a $22 billion deficit.
241
00:14:53,853 --> 00:14:55,252
This is good news.
242
00:14:55,453 --> 00:14:59,128
-You knew those numbers?
-He's freakish.
243
00:14:59,733 --> 00:15:02,327
-Zoey's coming for dinner.
-She's in town?
244
00:15:02,533 --> 00:15:06,048
My daughter's starting Georgetown
after the first.
245
00:15:06,253 --> 00:15:08,687
We're done.
My staff is waiting. . .
246
00:15:08,893 --> 00:15:12,329
. . .and they haven't bothered me
for a few hours.
247
00:15:12,533 --> 00:15:15,969
l'm gonna make chili.
l'll make it for everybody.
248
00:15:16,693 --> 00:15:19,651
My friends, my daughter,
my beer and some chili!
249
00:15:19,853 --> 00:15:22,572
You're gonna be the one to cook?
250
00:15:23,893 --> 00:15:28,330
My daughter, Zoey, is down
from Hanover. l'm making chili.
251
00:15:28,533 --> 00:15:32,367
-The first lady--
-She's in Pakistan. l eat what l want.
252
00:15:32,573 --> 00:15:34,450
-l need ingredients.
-What?
253
00:15:34,653 --> 00:15:36,803
-Chili.
-Don't listen to him.
254
00:15:37,413 --> 00:15:40,962
Mrs. Landingham wrote it down.
Give it to the steward.
255
00:15:41,173 --> 00:15:44,006
And send everyone in.
Thank you, Charlie.
256
00:15:44,213 --> 00:15:46,932
How could you remember
that 1 0 years ago. . .
257
00:15:47,133 --> 00:15:52,082
. . .there was a $ 1 88 billion debt
increase off a $22 billion deficit?
258
00:15:52,293 --> 00:15:55,888
-God, l was right?
-That's what l thought.
259
00:15:56,973 --> 00:15:59,168
Everyone, come in.
260
00:15:59,373 --> 00:16:01,409
Listen up, everybody.
261
00:16:01,613 --> 00:16:05,083
Zoey's down from Hanover,
l'm making chili tonight.
262
00:16:06,013 --> 00:16:09,688
-Okay.
-Great. Chili.
263
00:16:09,973 --> 00:16:11,770
Let's do this:
264
00:16:11,973 --> 00:16:16,524
Look down at the big seal
in the middle of my carpet.
265
00:16:17,573 --> 00:16:20,406
Now, everybody
look back up at me.
266
00:16:20,613 --> 00:16:23,764
Zoey's down from Hanover,
and l'm making chili.
267
00:16:23,973 --> 00:16:25,565
-That's great!
-Terrific!
268
00:16:25,773 --> 00:16:27,650
See how benevolent l can be. . .
269
00:16:27,853 --> 00:16:32,085
. . .when everybody does what l say?
Now, sit down.
270
00:16:32,453 --> 00:16:35,729
l want this meeting
to last three minutes.
271
00:16:35,933 --> 00:16:38,811
l will allow it to last
no more than five.
272
00:16:39,293 --> 00:16:41,523
We're going to California soon.
273
00:16:41,733 --> 00:16:43,883
Larry Posner wants a fundraiser.
274
00:16:44,093 --> 00:16:45,606
-No.
-Why?
275
00:16:45,813 --> 00:16:49,692
The day before,
the president is giving a speech. . .
276
00:16:49,893 --> 00:16:53,044
-. . .on violence in film.
-One he shouldn't give.
277
00:16:53,253 --> 00:16:55,209
-That's beside the point.
-So?
278
00:16:55,413 --> 00:16:58,644
-Posner's movies are violent.
-So is The Godfather.
279
00:16:58,853 --> 00:17:03,051
What you mean to say is
Posner's movies are bad.
280
00:17:03,253 --> 00:17:05,813
l mean to say,
his movies are indicative. . .
281
00:17:06,013 --> 00:17:09,562
. . .of a Hollywood that is
excessively, arrogantly violent. . .
282
00:17:09,773 --> 00:17:13,891
. . .and is promoting violence
and the disrespect of human life.
283
00:17:14,413 --> 00:17:18,406
We can't admonish them Tuesday
and cash their check Wednesday.
284
00:17:18,613 --> 00:17:21,764
lt's Hollywood.
Who gives a damn?
285
00:17:21,973 --> 00:17:24,567
Hang on a second,
Mr. President.
286
00:17:24,773 --> 00:17:28,243
l'm drafting a speech
for the entertainment industry. . .
287
00:17:28,453 --> 00:17:33,322
. . .where we come out and say that
much of their product is corruptive.
288
00:17:33,533 --> 00:17:39,290
Are we doing this because we want them
to take moral leadership seriously. . .
289
00:17:39,493 --> 00:17:43,406
. . .or because nobody has lost
an election attacking Hollywood?
290
00:17:43,613 --> 00:17:46,286
Why can't we do both?
291
00:17:46,493 --> 00:17:49,644
-lt's not hypocritical?
-No, because Sam is right.
292
00:17:49,853 --> 00:17:54,404
lt's not that Larry Posner's movies
have sex and violence.
293
00:17:54,613 --> 00:17:56,331
They suck.
They're terrible.
294
00:17:56,533 --> 00:18:00,003
But people see them
because they have sex and violence.
295
00:18:00,213 --> 00:18:05,003
lf people stop seeing crappy movies,
Posner would stop making them.
296
00:18:05,213 --> 00:18:08,011
ls that strategy working
in the war on drugs?
297
00:18:08,213 --> 00:18:11,011
We are imploring these people. . .
298
00:18:11,213 --> 00:18:14,250
. . .to step up
and not be quite so casual. . .
299
00:18:14,453 --> 00:18:16,921
. . .with the awesome influence
they have.
300
00:18:17,133 --> 00:18:21,331
But whenever someone blows thunder
at this ridiculous target. . .
301
00:18:21,533 --> 00:18:25,208
. . .it only distracts from the pursuit
of actual solutions!
302
00:18:25,413 --> 00:18:27,051
Let me say one thing.
303
00:18:27,253 --> 00:18:31,132
lf l were an actor or a writer
or a director. . .
304
00:18:31,333 --> 00:18:34,643
. . .and someone came at me
with lists of things. . .
305
00:18:34,853 --> 00:18:39,563
. . .that were American and un-American,
it would sound eerily familiar.
306
00:18:39,773 --> 00:18:42,765
Do l look like Joe McCarthy to you?
307
00:18:42,973 --> 00:18:48,001
Nobody ever looks like Joe McCarthy.
That's how they get in the door.
308
00:18:48,213 --> 00:18:51,250
We seem to have
wandered off the point a bit.
309
00:18:51,453 --> 00:18:54,684
-Yeah, and time's up.
-Thank you, Mr. President.
310
00:18:54,893 --> 00:18:57,885
-Chili tonight!
-Yes, sir.
311
00:18:59,413 --> 00:19:02,485
-Are you okay?
-Yeah.
312
00:19:02,693 --> 00:19:05,412
-You look a little. . . .
-No, no.
313
00:19:06,213 --> 00:19:08,886
-Know that donut on your desk?
-You ate it?
314
00:19:09,093 --> 00:19:10,970
That was predictable, wasn't it?
315
00:19:11,173 --> 00:19:15,246
-Any word yet on the. . . .
-The thing's still out there.
316
00:19:15,813 --> 00:19:19,362
l had a guy who wants us
to spend more time on UFOs.
317
00:19:19,573 --> 00:19:22,087
-We spend time on UFOs?
-l said that.
318
00:19:22,293 --> 00:19:26,172
After the Ouija board. . . .
l'm closing the door.
319
00:19:26,373 --> 00:19:28,887
CPC picked this thing up on radar.
320
00:19:29,093 --> 00:19:31,687
-Sam.
-Right.
321
00:19:32,813 --> 00:19:35,930
Listen, you're close
with Cathy, right?
322
00:19:36,533 --> 00:19:40,924
-l haven't seen her naked.
-That's not what l'm asking.
323
00:19:41,293 --> 00:19:45,889
She's like my younger sister,
but she's paid and she frightens me.
324
00:19:46,093 --> 00:19:48,607
But l love her.
lt's like you and Donna.
325
00:19:48,813 --> 00:19:50,644
Right.
326
00:19:51,493 --> 00:19:55,566
When they gave you the card
and said it's you and not Cathy. . .
327
00:19:55,813 --> 00:19:58,691
. . .how did you feel about that?
328
00:19:58,893 --> 00:20:02,363
-Gave me what card?
-The NSC card with directions.
329
00:20:02,573 --> 00:20:04,928
The directions to. . .?
330
00:20:05,133 --> 00:20:08,682
You, C.J., Toby.
331
00:20:08,893 --> 00:20:11,885
When the NSC guy gave you your cards.
332
00:20:15,573 --> 00:20:18,007
Josh, what card?
333
00:20:21,453 --> 00:20:23,648
Nothing.
334
00:20:25,173 --> 00:20:27,368
l was thinking of a different. . . .
335
00:20:27,573 --> 00:20:30,007
Nothing.
336
00:20:32,373 --> 00:20:34,568
We'd like to tell you about Pluie.
337
00:20:34,773 --> 00:20:37,048
-Who's Pluie?
-l'm glad you asked.
338
00:20:37,253 --> 00:20:39,005
-That's Pluie?
-Yes.
339
00:20:39,213 --> 00:20:41,090
-Pluie's a wolf?
-She is.
340
00:20:41,293 --> 00:20:44,091
And you're gonna
tell me her story?
341
00:20:44,293 --> 00:20:46,682
For 4 years, scientists
tracked Pluie. . .
342
00:20:46,893 --> 00:20:49,407
. . .as she made her way from Alberta. . .
343
00:20:49,613 --> 00:20:51,285
. . .up and down the Rockies.
344
00:20:51,493 --> 00:20:54,929
She's made 3 round trips
between Canada and Wyoming.
345
00:20:55,133 --> 00:20:56,771
40,000 square miles.
346
00:20:56,973 --> 00:20:59,806
lt was an impressive performance. . .
347
00:21:00,013 --> 00:21:04,404
. . .considering the impediments
of modern life she had to conquer.
348
00:21:04,613 --> 00:21:08,401
Highways, housing,
forests denuded of trees.
349
00:21:08,613 --> 00:21:13,050
-And the U.S.-Canadian border.
-Sure, no photo lD.
350
00:21:13,853 --> 00:21:15,571
l'm sorry?
351
00:21:16,293 --> 00:21:18,170
That was a joke.
352
00:21:18,773 --> 00:21:20,411
Why does Pluie do it?
353
00:21:20,853 --> 00:21:25,973
Wolves have to breed with many packs
to keep from becoming extinct.
354
00:21:26,173 --> 00:21:30,928
lf they breed among themselves,
they'll become genetically weaker. . .
355
00:21:31,173 --> 00:21:33,403
. . .endangering long-term survival.
356
00:21:33,613 --> 00:21:36,127
That helps explain Buckingham Palace.
357
00:21:37,333 --> 00:21:39,927
-May we tell you what we propose?
-Sure.
358
00:21:41,293 --> 00:21:44,365
The wolves-only roadway.
359
00:21:45,173 --> 00:21:46,891
The wolves-only roadway?
360
00:21:47,093 --> 00:21:50,972
1 800 miles, from Yellowstone
to the Yukon territory. . .
361
00:21:51,173 --> 00:21:53,448
. . .with highway overpasses.
362
00:21:53,653 --> 00:21:57,726
-An 1 800-mile wolves-only roadway?
-Pluie had to--
363
00:21:57,933 --> 00:22:00,811
How do you teach wolves
to follow road signs?
364
00:22:01,013 --> 00:22:03,368
Our scientists
are working on a plan.
365
00:22:03,573 --> 00:22:08,601
Pluie's gonna get drunk,
wander off the road and eat my cat.
366
00:22:10,453 --> 00:22:14,207
-We don't think that'll happen.
-l don't think this'll happen.
367
00:22:14,413 --> 00:22:18,247
Ranchers don't want wolves
returned to the West.
368
00:22:18,453 --> 00:22:20,683
-Ranchers are killers.
-They aren't.
369
00:22:20,893 --> 00:22:22,531
You should take that back.
370
00:22:22,733 --> 00:22:27,204
Ranchers face falling stock prices,
rising taxes, drought. . .
371
00:22:27,413 --> 00:22:29,643
. . .and people eating less beef.
372
00:22:29,853 --> 00:22:32,572
They want to blame something.
373
00:22:32,773 --> 00:22:35,287
l'd rather it be a wolf than us.
374
00:22:35,493 --> 00:22:40,248
Pluie was shot and killed
by a rancher last month.
375
00:22:44,973 --> 00:22:48,522
l'm sorry to hear that.
376
00:22:48,733 --> 00:22:51,566
l'm not sure you are.
377
00:22:52,293 --> 00:22:54,568
How much would it cost?
378
00:22:54,773 --> 00:22:58,732
That's the beauty part.
With corporate sponsorship. . .
379
00:22:58,933 --> 00:23:04,212
. . .the cost to the taxpayer
is only $900 million.
380
00:23:09,613 --> 00:23:11,843
Seriously, how much would it cost?
381
00:23:12,053 --> 00:23:14,886
lf we're gonna do this,
why not do it right?
382
00:23:15,093 --> 00:23:16,526
We're not gonna do it.
383
00:23:16,733 --> 00:23:19,167
Sure, there are
other ways to spend.
384
00:23:19,373 --> 00:23:20,522
You think?
385
00:23:20,733 --> 00:23:23,167
What's a better way
to spend the money?
386
00:23:23,373 --> 00:23:25,284
$900 million?
387
00:23:25,493 --> 00:23:27,768
Another war plane or S & L bailout?
388
00:23:27,973 --> 00:23:30,441
How about the nine best schools?
389
00:23:30,653 --> 00:23:33,611
Let's move on
to the grizzly bear.
390
00:23:39,613 --> 00:23:40,807
Can l talk to you?
391
00:23:41,053 --> 00:23:44,568
Did you get him a spot
on Hollywood Squares?
392
00:23:44,773 --> 00:23:47,526
You know Posner's a huge supporter.
393
00:23:47,733 --> 00:23:49,325
l know.
394
00:23:49,533 --> 00:23:52,172
-l came to be nice to you.
-Go ahead.
395
00:23:52,693 --> 00:23:56,652
-l don't like going against you.
-l don't either.
396
00:23:59,413 --> 00:24:02,007
That's you being nice?
397
00:24:03,813 --> 00:24:06,885
l'm glad Rosen
passed on the communications job.
398
00:24:07,093 --> 00:24:09,732
They couldn't have
done better than you.
399
00:24:10,613 --> 00:24:12,092
Excuse me?
400
00:24:12,293 --> 00:24:16,366
You're a better director
than David Rosen would've been.
401
00:24:17,133 --> 00:24:18,885
That's me being nice.
402
00:24:19,093 --> 00:24:22,688
-l asked if l was the first choice. . .
-Back to this?
403
00:24:22,893 --> 00:24:24,565
. . .you called me paranoid.
404
00:24:24,773 --> 00:24:26,968
You called me a paranoid nudnik.
405
00:24:27,173 --> 00:24:30,927
For the last time, you weren't the
president's second choice.
406
00:24:31,133 --> 00:24:32,885
-And David Rosen?
-What?
407
00:24:33,093 --> 00:24:34,731
Mandy was in my office.
408
00:24:34,933 --> 00:24:37,606
She said she's happy
Rosen passed on my job.
409
00:24:37,813 --> 00:24:41,010
We'll start in a few minutes.
Give fair warning.
410
00:24:41,253 --> 00:24:44,962
l don't know anything.
Where is this coming from?
411
00:24:45,173 --> 00:24:48,722
Help me with the gun thing.
Hollywood can wait.
412
00:24:48,933 --> 00:24:50,810
Since when do you need help?
413
00:24:51,013 --> 00:24:53,652
Since l became the kid
raising his hand. . .
414
00:24:53,853 --> 00:24:56,845
. . .that nobody wants
the teacher to call on.
415
00:24:57,173 --> 00:24:59,562
Just help me, please.
416
00:25:00,053 --> 00:25:02,931
l appreciate you
squeezing me in like this.
417
00:25:03,133 --> 00:25:04,771
l was able to cancel someone.
418
00:25:04,973 --> 00:25:07,567
You shouldn't have,
it's not a big deal.
419
00:25:07,773 --> 00:25:10,048
What's not a big deal?
420
00:25:10,653 --> 00:25:12,530
l'm out of practice.
421
00:25:12,733 --> 00:25:15,293
That comes from
not seeing me for months.
422
00:25:15,493 --> 00:25:19,281
The idea would make the people
l work for nervous.
423
00:25:19,533 --> 00:25:22,127
Why are you here now?
424
00:25:22,333 --> 00:25:24,369
This is gonna sound silly.
425
00:25:28,173 --> 00:25:33,531
There's a magazine article--
A magazine article came out. . .
426
00:25:33,733 --> 00:25:39,330
. . .and it said several countries
have stored the smallpox virus.
427
00:25:39,853 --> 00:25:43,971
-Are you afraid you have smallpox?
-No.
428
00:25:46,133 --> 00:25:48,328
Don't laugh.
429
00:25:49,733 --> 00:25:53,931
-l have Ave Maria stuck in my head.
-The Schubert?
430
00:25:54,133 --> 00:25:58,126
Yeah, l've been humming it
to myself all morning.
431
00:26:00,693 --> 00:26:04,811
-Why do you think the Ave Maria?
-Why do you think?
432
00:26:05,013 --> 00:26:07,243
l don't know.
433
00:26:08,533 --> 00:26:13,812
My sister played it over and over,
l don't know how many years ago.
434
00:26:14,013 --> 00:26:16,208
-Your sister who died?
-Joanie.
435
00:26:17,053 --> 00:26:20,090
Why did Joanie play
the Ave Maria in her room?
436
00:26:20,293 --> 00:26:23,808
She liked music.
A lot.
437
00:26:24,613 --> 00:26:26,444
She wanted to be a conductor.
438
00:26:26,653 --> 00:26:30,771
She used to pretend she was
conducting to the music.
439
00:26:30,973 --> 00:26:35,444
Anyway, that, and l was
a little thrown off this morning. . .
440
00:26:35,653 --> 00:26:37,883
. . .when they gave me this card.
441
00:26:38,093 --> 00:26:40,653
l was the only one who got one.
442
00:26:40,853 --> 00:26:44,641
l mean, of my friends.
That surprised me.
443
00:26:44,853 --> 00:26:46,650
-Joanie, Toby and C.J.
-Joanie?
444
00:26:47,093 --> 00:26:49,926
-What?
-You named Joanie in there.
445
00:26:50,733 --> 00:26:53,611
You said you got a card
and Joanie didn't.
446
00:26:53,813 --> 00:26:56,168
l meant. . . . No.
447
00:26:57,893 --> 00:27:01,169
We were just talking about Joanie.
448
00:27:01,533 --> 00:27:03,046
What kind of card?
449
00:27:03,253 --> 00:27:05,528
lt was. . . .
450
00:27:06,013 --> 00:27:08,447
There are things l can't discuss.
451
00:27:08,653 --> 00:27:14,285
l'm not withholding anything
l should be emotionally available for.
452
00:27:15,493 --> 00:27:17,848
-Okay.
-Thanks.
453
00:27:19,053 --> 00:27:22,045
Can you talk about it,
but not talk about it?
454
00:27:22,253 --> 00:27:24,005
l gotta go.
455
00:27:24,213 --> 00:27:28,411
-Sorry you canceled an appointment.
-But l did cancel.
456
00:27:28,613 --> 00:27:33,129
-Take off your coat.
-lt was impulsive, l wasted your time.
457
00:27:33,333 --> 00:27:37,451
Do you think it's strange
you haven't told me how Joanie died?
458
00:27:37,653 --> 00:27:40,087
-l've told you.
-No, you haven't.
459
00:27:40,293 --> 00:27:43,171
-Sure, l have.
-No.
460
00:27:44,413 --> 00:27:46,688
lt's not a big deal.
461
00:27:54,533 --> 00:27:58,572
She was babysitting for me
and there was a fire.
462
00:27:59,413 --> 00:28:01,563
How'd the fire start?
463
00:28:05,373 --> 00:28:08,171
l honestly don't remember.
464
00:28:09,533 --> 00:28:12,605
Something about a popcorn maker.
465
00:28:12,813 --> 00:28:15,771
And the house caught on fire?
466
00:28:17,573 --> 00:28:20,724
-Yeah.
-While Joanie was babysitting you?
467
00:28:25,413 --> 00:28:27,563
Why aren't you dead?
468
00:28:32,653 --> 00:28:35,167
l ran out of the house.
469
00:28:37,053 --> 00:28:42,764
You were just a little boy.
That's what you were supposed to do.
470
00:29:15,173 --> 00:29:17,607
l was knocking,
but you didn't answer.
471
00:29:17,813 --> 00:29:21,203
-l didn't hear the door.
-What are you doing?
472
00:29:21,413 --> 00:29:25,201
l'm ready to brief the president
on the smallpox article.
473
00:29:25,413 --> 00:29:29,247
Forget about that for tonight
and come have some chili.
474
00:29:29,453 --> 00:29:32,968
An NSC staffer gave me a card
with instructions. . .
475
00:29:33,173 --> 00:29:35,971
. . .for what to do
in a nuclear attack.
476
00:29:36,173 --> 00:29:42,169
They want me up in a plane or down
in a bunker. They don't want you.
477
00:29:42,853 --> 00:29:47,210
Or Sam or Toby, for that matter.
478
00:29:48,813 --> 00:29:52,965
l didn't want to be friends with you
and have you not know.
479
00:29:54,173 --> 00:29:56,243
Have you been upset about this?
480
00:29:57,693 --> 00:29:59,206
Yes.
481
00:30:00,613 --> 00:30:02,968
You're sweet sometimes,
you really are.
482
00:30:03,173 --> 00:30:06,643
Of course they don't want me,
l'm a press secretary.
483
00:30:06,853 --> 00:30:09,162
They won't be issuing any releases.
484
00:30:09,373 --> 00:30:13,844
Sam and Toby are communications.
And speeches won't be a priority.
485
00:30:14,053 --> 00:30:16,851
Come. Have some fun.
486
00:30:17,693 --> 00:30:21,208
This is a beautiful piece of music.
Do you know this?
487
00:30:21,413 --> 00:30:23,563
l'm Catholic.
488
00:30:24,013 --> 00:30:25,969
Hang on, listen. . . .
489
00:30:29,453 --> 00:30:32,013
That, right there.
490
00:30:35,533 --> 00:30:39,082
lt's miraculous.
491
00:30:43,013 --> 00:30:46,369
-Schubert was crazy, you know?
-Yes.
492
00:30:48,453 --> 00:30:52,207
Do you have to be crazy
to create something powerful?
493
00:30:52,413 --> 00:30:54,290
The Cold War is over. There's--
494
00:30:54,493 --> 00:30:58,611
God, C.J.,
it's not gonna be like that.
495
00:30:59,533 --> 00:31:03,367
lt's not gonna be the red phone
and nuclear bombs.
496
00:31:03,573 --> 00:31:06,371
-What's it gonna be?
-lt's gonna be this.
497
00:31:06,573 --> 00:31:11,931
Smallpox has been gone for 50 years.
No one has an acquired immunity.
498
00:31:12,133 --> 00:31:16,331
lt flies through the air.
You carry a 1 0-foot cloud around you.
499
00:31:16,533 --> 00:31:21,084
lf 1 00 people in New York City got it,
you'd have to encircle them. . .
500
00:31:21,293 --> 00:31:25,002
. . .with 1 00 million vaccinated people
to contain it.
501
00:31:25,253 --> 00:31:28,882
Do you know how many doses
of the vaccine exist here?
502
00:31:29,133 --> 00:31:31,283
Seven.
503
00:31:31,493 --> 00:31:34,724
1 00 people get it,
we'll have a global emergency. . .
504
00:31:34,933 --> 00:31:38,562
. . .that'll make HlV
look like cold and flu season.
505
00:31:39,493 --> 00:31:44,886
lt's gonna be a test tube with a
rubber cap that's deteriorating.
506
00:31:45,093 --> 00:31:48,290
A guy steps out of
Times Square station--
507
00:31:48,493 --> 00:31:51,371
Smashes it on the sidewalk.
508
00:31:51,573 --> 00:31:54,133
There's a world war right there.
509
00:32:01,813 --> 00:32:04,532
We'll make more vaccine.
510
00:32:05,893 --> 00:32:09,488
You better hurry.
l'm the only one with a card.
511
00:32:10,533 --> 00:32:14,651
-The president is asking for you.
-ln a minute.
512
00:32:14,853 --> 00:32:17,970
You really are very sweet sometimes.
513
00:32:24,933 --> 00:32:29,484
lt's all about the fundamentals.
Keep your feet moving on defense.
514
00:32:29,733 --> 00:32:32,645
Pass and get open on offense.
515
00:32:32,853 --> 00:32:35,572
l am a master of the fundamentals.
516
00:32:35,773 --> 00:32:39,209
That is why my team
thoroughly dominated yours.
517
00:32:39,413 --> 00:32:42,849
Didn't hurt having
an ACC Player of the Week.
518
00:32:43,053 --> 00:32:46,489
-Kids don't understand.
-No appreciation for the game.
519
00:32:46,693 --> 00:32:48,012
-Are you drunk?
-No.
520
00:32:48,213 --> 00:32:50,647
-Now, why--
-l just like asking.
521
00:32:50,853 --> 00:32:53,606
-l tell you--
-Give it up. Where's Zoey?
522
00:32:53,813 --> 00:32:55,292
She's in the kitchen.
523
00:32:55,493 --> 00:32:57,882
Wolves don't kill people.
lt's a myth.
524
00:32:58,093 --> 00:33:00,004
Now she's become a wolf person?
525
00:33:00,213 --> 00:33:05,571
More people are killed getting change
out of vending machines.
526
00:33:05,773 --> 00:33:08,845
People killed last year
by vending machines: four.
527
00:33:09,053 --> 00:33:11,806
Number of people killed
by wolf attack: zero.
528
00:33:12,053 --> 00:33:13,930
Excuse me.
529
00:33:14,133 --> 00:33:16,249
People die from vending machines?
530
00:33:16,453 --> 00:33:20,162
-Hey, good to see you.
-Mr. President.
531
00:33:28,173 --> 00:33:31,722
l guess we haven't been
getting along too well, lately.
532
00:33:32,333 --> 00:33:33,971
No, l guess not.
533
00:33:34,173 --> 00:33:38,325
-l've been irritating you?
-Yes.
534
00:33:39,613 --> 00:33:43,242
Was David Rosen
your first choice for my job?
535
00:33:46,653 --> 00:33:48,803
Yes.
536
00:33:50,293 --> 00:33:53,285
l'm glad we had this little talk.
537
00:33:53,493 --> 00:33:55,927
l feel a lot better, thanks.
538
00:33:56,133 --> 00:33:58,931
We were up all night
on that one, Toby.
539
00:33:59,133 --> 00:34:01,488
Me and Leo and Josh.
540
00:34:01,693 --> 00:34:05,845
They were screaming at me,
''Governor, it's gotta be Toby. ''
541
00:34:06,693 --> 00:34:09,366
l held my ground
and we went to Rosen.
542
00:34:09,573 --> 00:34:14,647
And he wanted to take a partnership
at Salomon Brothers, thank God.
543
00:34:15,333 --> 00:34:17,449
l couldn't live without you.
544
00:34:17,653 --> 00:34:22,124
l mean it, l'd be in the tall grass.
ln the weeds.
545
00:34:23,213 --> 00:34:27,684
l know l disappoint you sometimes.
l can sense it.
546
00:34:27,893 --> 00:34:31,363
l only get mad because
you're right a lot of times.
547
00:34:33,373 --> 00:34:36,490
You aren't the kid in class
with his hand up.
548
00:34:36,693 --> 00:34:39,526
Whatever it was you said to C.J.
549
00:34:39,733 --> 00:34:43,851
You are a wise
and brilliant man, Toby.
550
00:34:48,373 --> 00:34:53,572
The other night, on the court,
did you mean what you said?
551
00:34:53,773 --> 00:34:58,289
That my demons were shouting down
my better angels?
552
00:34:58,493 --> 00:35:00,882
Yes, sir, l did.
553
00:35:03,733 --> 00:35:07,931
You think that's
what's stopping me from greatness?
554
00:35:08,133 --> 00:35:10,249
Yes.
555
00:35:12,253 --> 00:35:15,086
l suppose you're right.
556
00:35:16,373 --> 00:35:18,364
l'll tell you what, though.
557
00:35:18,573 --> 00:35:24,045
ln a battle between a president's
demons and his better angels. . .
558
00:35:24,253 --> 00:35:27,370
. . .for the first time in
a long while. . .
559
00:35:27,573 --> 00:35:31,612
. . .l think we might just
have ourselves a fair fight.
560
00:35:32,653 --> 00:35:35,042
Thank you, Toby.
561
00:35:35,733 --> 00:35:37,564
Now, go away.
562
00:35:48,893 --> 00:35:51,771
-Drop the spoon.
-l knew it was you.
563
00:35:51,973 --> 00:35:54,806
-You look good!
-You look like death!
564
00:35:55,013 --> 00:35:56,969
Thanks. l have a new barber.
565
00:35:57,173 --> 00:36:01,610
-l heard you've been nutty today.
-Mind your own business.
566
00:36:01,813 --> 00:36:05,283
-What classes you taking?
-Mind your own business.
567
00:36:08,413 --> 00:36:13,533
-Charlie, you met Zoey Bartlet?
-lt's a pleasure, ma'am.
568
00:36:14,173 --> 00:36:16,323
Let's take it back a moment.
569
00:36:16,533 --> 00:36:19,650
This is a girl.
You don't call her ''ma'am. ''
570
00:36:19,853 --> 00:36:22,413
-Beg your pardon. Did l call you--
-Zoey.
571
00:36:22,613 --> 00:36:26,686
-l should call you Zoey?
-lf l can call you Charlie.
572
00:36:26,893 --> 00:36:29,202
-The president--
-That's her father.
573
00:36:29,413 --> 00:36:32,325
You're forbidden from adding
cumin to the chili.
574
00:36:32,533 --> 00:36:34,603
Check to see if he's nearby.
575
00:36:35,453 --> 00:36:37,648
l have certain instructions.
576
00:36:37,853 --> 00:36:41,892
-You're fine.
-Taste this.
577
00:36:42,093 --> 00:36:46,006
-Doesn't it need cumin?
-lt needs oregano.
578
00:36:46,213 --> 00:36:47,726
Well, let's get to work.
579
00:36:47,933 --> 00:36:50,003
See you guys.
580
00:36:52,013 --> 00:36:54,652
Maybe the vending machines
fall on them. . .
581
00:36:54,853 --> 00:36:57,845
. . .while they're
getting their change.
582
00:36:58,053 --> 00:37:02,569
We can build schools
and protect wildlife at the same time.
583
00:37:02,813 --> 00:37:06,772
-Pluie really got to you?
-He really was very sweet.
584
00:37:06,973 --> 00:37:09,043
Josh, we were looking for you.
585
00:37:10,293 --> 00:37:12,682
-Look at this.
-Look at what, sir?
586
00:37:13,653 --> 00:37:16,167
Nothing makes me feel quite so good. . .
587
00:37:16,373 --> 00:37:19,649
. . .as colleagues enjoying each other
outside work.
588
00:37:19,973 --> 00:37:23,170
What were you guys
talking about?
589
00:37:23,373 --> 00:37:25,682
We were talking about these women.
590
00:37:25,893 --> 00:37:28,487
We can't get over these women.
591
00:37:29,133 --> 00:37:34,127
C.J.'s like a '50s movie star.
So capable, loving and energetic.
592
00:37:34,333 --> 00:37:38,645
Look at Mandy over there.
Going punch for punch with Toby. . .
593
00:37:38,853 --> 00:37:42,209
. . .in a world that tells women
to sit down and shut up.
594
00:37:42,413 --> 00:37:45,371
She's already won her battle
with the president.
595
00:37:45,573 --> 00:37:48,610
But she's not done.
She wants Toby.
596
00:37:48,813 --> 00:37:51,168
Mrs. Landingham.
597
00:37:51,373 --> 00:37:54,365
Did you guys know
she lost two sons in Vietnam?
598
00:37:54,573 --> 00:38:00,364
Why she serves her country is beyond
me, but she's not missed a day's work.
599
00:38:00,573 --> 00:38:05,886
There's Cathy,
Donna, and Margaret. . . .
600
00:38:06,093 --> 00:38:09,324
There's something that's
been bothering me.
601
00:38:09,533 --> 00:38:13,321
-l know it's an inappropriate time.
-What's on your mind?
602
00:38:13,533 --> 00:38:19,483
l serve the president,
and it's an unforgettable privilege.
603
00:38:19,693 --> 00:38:21,923
l can't keep this.
604
00:38:22,133 --> 00:38:25,170
lt's a white flag of surrender.
605
00:38:25,373 --> 00:38:28,410
l wanna be a comfort
to my friends in tragedy. . .
606
00:38:28,613 --> 00:38:30,922
. . .and celebrate with them in triumph.
607
00:38:31,453 --> 00:38:36,732
For the times in between, l wanna
be able to look them in the eye.
608
00:38:36,933 --> 00:38:40,892
l wanna be with my friends,
my family. . .
609
00:38:41,093 --> 00:38:43,527
. . .and these women.
610
00:38:50,973 --> 00:38:53,168
Excuse me.
611
00:38:54,453 --> 00:38:57,650
Thank you.
Friends, please.
612
00:38:57,893 --> 00:39:00,168
The chili's ready,
l hope you enjoy it.
613
00:39:00,373 --> 00:39:03,092
Since l told you
you would enjoy it. . .
614
00:39:03,293 --> 00:39:06,046
. . .l'm reasonably certain
that you will.
615
00:39:07,733 --> 00:39:09,928
The first lady is in Pakistan.
616
00:39:10,133 --> 00:39:13,011
l'm not entirely sure why,
but l've learned. . .
617
00:39:13,213 --> 00:39:16,683
. . .it's a good idea not to
ask too many questions.
618
00:39:16,893 --> 00:39:20,044
lt seldom leads to anything
but confusion.
619
00:39:20,253 --> 00:39:24,804
l miss her very much, but l'm delighted
our daughter is here.
620
00:39:25,133 --> 00:39:28,682
You know, she's starting Georgetown
in the spring.
621
00:39:30,893 --> 00:39:34,647
This, prior to medical school
and a life of celibacy.
622
00:39:34,853 --> 00:39:37,048
Yeah, right.
623
00:39:37,253 --> 00:39:39,448
lt's an incredible adventure.
624
00:39:39,653 --> 00:39:43,692
Four years full of people and
experiences you haven't dreamed of.
625
00:39:43,893 --> 00:39:46,691
Allow me just one minute of business.
626
00:39:46,893 --> 00:39:49,805
l hope by the time
our four years are done. . .
627
00:39:50,013 --> 00:39:52,652
. . .we see to it
that anyone who chooses. . .
628
00:39:52,853 --> 00:39:57,131
. . .can go to college,
regardless of their economic status.
629
00:39:57,333 --> 00:39:58,971
Here, here.
630
00:40:00,053 --> 00:40:05,332
l hear that today was another one of
Leo's ''big block of cheese'' days.
631
00:40:05,533 --> 00:40:10,891
You all start out cynical, but there's
always one or two converts a day.
632
00:40:11,093 --> 00:40:14,642
Today was no exception.
C.J. is gonna be up all night. . .
633
00:40:14,853 --> 00:40:19,847
. . . .writing a position paper on the
necessity of wildlife protection.
634
00:40:20,053 --> 00:40:24,205
C.J., l don't mind the cost
of this wolves-only highway.
635
00:40:24,413 --> 00:40:25,892
lt's the segregation.
636
00:40:26,093 --> 00:40:29,403
The ACLU will file a petition
on behalf of reindeer. . .
637
00:40:29,613 --> 00:40:31,410
. . .and we're all screwed.
638
00:40:31,613 --> 00:40:34,605
Sam Seaborn had a guy
who spotted a UFO today.
639
00:40:34,813 --> 00:40:38,249
He's been thinking about it
ever since.
640
00:40:38,453 --> 00:40:43,083
lt wasn't a ship from another planet,
just another time.
641
00:40:43,293 --> 00:40:45,284
An abandoned Soviet satellite.
642
00:40:45,493 --> 00:40:49,805
lts booster didn't fire
and it couldn't escape Earth's orbit.
643
00:40:50,013 --> 00:40:54,882
A reminder of a time when two powerful
nations challenged each other. . .
644
00:40:55,093 --> 00:40:58,688
. . .and then boldly raced
into outer space.
645
00:40:58,893 --> 00:41:01,043
What will be the next challenge. . .
646
00:41:01,893 --> 00:41:05,090
. . .that makes us go farther
and work harder?
647
00:41:05,293 --> 00:41:07,966
When smallpox was eradicated. . .
648
00:41:08,173 --> 00:41:12,963
. . .it was the greatest humanitarian
achievement of this century.
649
00:41:13,173 --> 00:41:15,323
Surely we can do it again. . .
650
00:41:15,533 --> 00:41:19,162
. . .as when our eyes
looked towards the heavens. . .
651
00:41:19,373 --> 00:41:23,412
. . .and with outstretched fingers,
we touched the face of God.
652
00:41:24,493 --> 00:41:27,166
Here's to absent friends. . .
653
00:41:27,373 --> 00:41:30,331
. . .and the ones that are here now.

00:42:23,502 --> 00:42:26,494
-l'm voting no.
-lt's all we could get now.
659
00:42:26,742 --> 00:42:27,936
You didn't work hard enough.
660
00:42:28,142 --> 00:42:30,975
You have to let me protect you
and the president.
661
00:42:31,182 --> 00:42:34,697
The president doesn't hold grudges.
He pays me to.
662
00:42:34,902 --> 00:42:37,462
There's no one in the world
l don't hate.
663
00:42:37,662 --> 00:42:39,971
Your mom was killed
with a .38 revolver.
664
00:42:40,182 --> 00:42:44,095
We haven't had success yet
having those weapons banned.
665
00:42:44,302 --> 00:42:46,213
-You want to help us?
-Yes, sir.
666
00:42:51,382 --> 00:42:53,691
Oh, man, l'm sorry.
667
00:42:54,982 --> 00:42:56,495
Oh, yeah!
668
00:42:57,262 --> 00:42:59,935
-That's how you do it.
-Game point.
669
00:43:00,142 --> 00:43:02,098
-You look winded.
-l'm fine.
670
00:43:02,302 --> 00:43:05,021
-You want to sit out?
-Why would l do that?
671
00:43:05,222 --> 00:43:07,497
People will be mad if we kill you.
672
00:43:08,302 --> 00:43:10,258
-Game point, let's go.
-Sir--
673
00:43:10,462 --> 00:43:13,101
-l'm playing.
-There's no shame in quitting.
674
00:43:13,302 --> 00:43:16,339
Just admit l'm a better athlete
and slink away.
675
00:43:17,142 --> 00:43:19,053
-Take it out.
-You're playing?
676
00:43:19,262 --> 00:43:22,857
-Take the ball out!
-This is a perfect metaphor.
677
00:43:23,302 --> 00:43:27,580
After you're gone, and poets
write ''The Legend of Josiah Bartlet'' . . .
678
00:43:27,782 --> 00:43:30,171
. . .let them make you a tragic figure.
679
00:43:30,382 --> 00:43:33,454
''He had the tools for greatness. . .
680
00:43:33,702 --> 00:43:38,935
. . .but his better angels were silenced
by his obsessive need to win. ''
681
00:43:39,142 --> 00:43:42,020
-You wanna play or write my eulogy?
-Honestly?
682
00:43:42,222 --> 00:43:44,019
Mr. Grant?
683
00:43:46,982 --> 00:43:49,291
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
684
00:43:49,502 --> 00:43:52,494
-Who's this?
-l'm making a substitution.
685
00:43:52,702 --> 00:43:55,660
-Grant's a new member of my team.
-A ringer.
686
00:43:55,862 --> 00:43:58,012
Mr. Grant is a federal employee.
687
00:43:58,462 --> 00:44:01,772
lt's not that you cheat,
it's how bad you are at it.
688
00:44:02,022 --> 00:44:04,582
-l beg your pardon.
-Toby's got a point.
689
00:44:04,782 --> 00:44:05,771
When did l cheat?
690
00:44:05,982 --> 00:44:10,498
You told us your tennis partner
worked at the American Consulate.
691
00:44:10,702 --> 00:44:12,818
-She did!
-lt was Steffi Graf!
692
00:44:13,022 --> 00:44:15,490
l admit that she bore a resemblance--
693
00:44:15,702 --> 00:44:20,253
You think l won't recognize
Steffi Graf when she's serving at me?
694
00:44:20,462 --> 00:44:23,818
She's won championships,
we've seen her photograph.
695
00:44:24,022 --> 00:44:28,061
Be that as it may,
Toby, Josh, Charlie. . .
696
00:44:28,662 --> 00:44:30,937
. . .let me introduce
Mr. Rodney Grant. . .
697
00:44:31,142 --> 00:44:34,498
. . .from the President's Council
on Physical Fitness.
698
00:44:34,702 --> 00:44:36,374
Game point, let's go!
699
00:44:36,582 --> 00:44:38,618
Whoa, not so fast.
700
00:44:38,822 --> 00:44:40,858
Your name sounds familiar.
701
00:44:41,342 --> 00:44:44,891
Before you joined up the
Council on Physical Fitness. . .
702
00:44:45,102 --> 00:44:48,936
. . .which the president would do well
to avail himself of. . .
703
00:44:49,622 --> 00:44:52,500
. . .is it possible you played
organized ball?
704
00:44:53,142 --> 00:44:54,780
l used to play a little.
705
00:44:54,982 --> 00:44:56,973
-And where was that?
-l'm sorry?
706
00:44:57,182 --> 00:44:59,776
-Where would that be?
-Duke.
707
00:45:01,582 --> 00:45:05,541
-This guy was in the Final Four!
-Game point, let's go!
708
00:45:05,742 --> 00:45:07,653
l'm taking you to the hole.
709
00:45:09,422 --> 00:45:10,980
You got it!
710
00:45:12,942 --> 00:45:15,581
Let the poets write about
that, Byron.
711
00:45:17,222 --> 00:45:19,782
Charlie, guard the new guy.
712
00:46:09,462 --> 00:46:11,851
-We have a staff meeting.
-l'm going.
713
00:46:12,062 --> 00:46:15,737
-l'm just telling you.
-You see that's where l'm going.
714
00:46:15,942 --> 00:46:19,696
-lsn't it adorable?
-That you seek to control me? Love it.
715
00:46:19,902 --> 00:46:21,654
-Donald hasn't called.
-Who?
716
00:46:21,862 --> 00:46:24,057
Donald.
From the thing.
717
00:46:24,342 --> 00:46:26,810
Can we be clear about my interest. . .
718
00:46:27,022 --> 00:46:29,980
. . .in the local Gomers that you see. . .
719
00:46:30,182 --> 00:46:33,299
. . .in the free time you create
by not working?
720
00:46:33,502 --> 00:46:35,538
-Excuse me?
-You work very hard.
721
00:46:35,742 --> 00:46:37,653
-And l am?
-Not controlling.
722
00:46:37,862 --> 00:46:39,614
-You have a meeting.
-Okay.
723
00:46:39,822 --> 00:46:41,778
-There's another thing.
-What?
724
00:46:41,982 --> 00:46:44,212
Hang on, here it is.
725
00:46:44,422 --> 00:46:48,620
Leo wants you to meet Lacey
from the NSC in his office.
726
00:46:48,822 --> 00:46:50,301
-Thanks.
-What is it?
727
00:46:50,502 --> 00:46:54,256
This is the White House,
so it's probably not important.
728
00:46:54,462 --> 00:46:56,817
l want you to read this article.
729
00:46:57,022 --> 00:46:59,331
-What's it about?
-Smallpox.
730
00:46:59,542 --> 00:47:04,058
-The disease?
-No, the dessert. Yes, the disease!
731
00:47:04,262 --> 00:47:06,776
-We do it every month.
-We missed a few.
732
00:47:06,982 --> 00:47:09,542
We try to do it
the first of every month.
733
00:47:09,742 --> 00:47:11,380
Twice in 1 2 months.
734
00:47:11,582 --> 00:47:13,812
-We're behind.
-Behind on what?
735
00:47:14,022 --> 00:47:17,458
lt's People Who Want
to Discuss Things. . .
736
00:47:17,662 --> 00:47:20,574
. . .That We Could Care
Less About Day.
737
00:47:20,782 --> 00:47:22,215
That sounds goofy.
738
00:47:22,422 --> 00:47:26,210
lt's not so bad. Talk to them,
give them a souvenir pen. . . .
739
00:47:26,782 --> 00:47:32,254
-This isn't a waste of time?
-Yes, but it's one of Leo's policies.
740
00:47:32,462 --> 00:47:35,852
-Why?
-Sadly, you're about to find out.
741
00:47:36,062 --> 00:47:40,817
Andrew Jackson, in the main foyer,
had a big block of cheese.
742
00:47:41,302 --> 00:47:44,931
l am making a mental list
of those who are snickering.
743
00:47:45,142 --> 00:47:49,613
Even as l speak,
l'm preparing appropriate retribution.
744
00:47:49,822 --> 00:47:52,814
The block of cheese was huge,
over 2 tons.
745
00:47:53,022 --> 00:47:55,900
lt was there
for anyone who might be hungry.
746
00:47:56,102 --> 00:48:01,017
Let's spend our time plotting against
a country that can't defend itself.
747
00:48:01,222 --> 00:48:04,897
Later. Right now l'm talking
about President Jackson.
748
00:48:05,102 --> 00:48:08,651
-You're talking about cheese.
-Sam goes on my list.
749
00:48:08,862 --> 00:48:11,854
-What about Toby?
-l'm unpredictable.
750
00:48:12,342 --> 00:48:15,254
The White House
belongs to the people. . .
751
00:48:15,462 --> 00:48:18,579
. . .so Jackson invited those
who wished an audience.
752
00:48:18,782 --> 00:48:21,580
Then he made them eat
2 tons of cheese.
753
00:48:21,782 --> 00:48:24,933
-ln that spirit--
-Mandy doesn't go on the list?
754
00:48:25,542 --> 00:48:28,579
-Mandy's new.
-So it's just me on the list?
755
00:48:29,262 --> 00:48:34,894
lt is in the spirit of Andrew Jackson
that l ask senior staff. . .
756
00:48:35,102 --> 00:48:40,734
. . .to meet with people who have
a hard time getting our attention.
757
00:48:40,942 --> 00:48:45,857
l know the more jaded among you
see this as beneath you.
758
00:48:46,702 --> 00:48:52,459
But listening to the voices of passion
in Americans is beneath no one.
759
00:48:52,702 --> 00:48:55,216
Surely not the people's servants.
760
00:48:55,422 --> 00:48:57,982
-ls it Total Crackpot Day again?
-Yes.
761
00:48:58,182 --> 00:49:00,537
Note that Josh isn't on the list.
762
00:49:00,742 --> 00:49:03,017
-You have a thing right now.
-Yeah.
763
00:49:03,222 --> 00:49:06,134
Hand out those appointments.
764
00:49:06,342 --> 00:49:11,541
-What's up?
-That's for ''Total Crackpot Day. ''
765
00:49:12,662 --> 00:49:15,222
Second of all,
this is Jonathan Lacey.
766
00:49:16,022 --> 00:49:19,059
Good to meet you.
Mr. McGarry, would you mind?
767
00:49:20,822 --> 00:49:24,451
-l know you're busy.
-What can l do for you?
768
00:49:24,662 --> 00:49:26,892
Keep this card at all times.
769
00:49:27,102 --> 00:49:31,857
-lf you lose it, you call us.
-Who's ''us''?
770
00:49:32,062 --> 00:49:35,054
l'm sorry, l thought you knew.
l'm with the NSC.
771
00:49:35,262 --> 00:49:37,571
l meant, what's the card do?
772
00:49:38,022 --> 00:49:40,820
lt says where to go
during a nuclear attack.
773
00:49:42,422 --> 00:49:43,935
You're kidding me.
774
00:49:44,142 --> 00:49:46,053
We want you
on Air Force One. . .
775
00:49:46,262 --> 00:49:49,777
. . .or in an underground bunker
as quickly as possible.
776
00:49:50,862 --> 00:49:52,978
Sure. Well. . . .
777
00:49:55,302 --> 00:49:58,419
Okay, l don't know what to say.
778
00:49:58,622 --> 00:50:00,180
l guess that's it, then.
779
00:50:00,382 --> 00:50:04,739
-lf you have questions, call me.
-Sure.
780
00:50:05,822 --> 00:50:08,416
My staff goes with me,
or do they--
781
00:50:12,302 --> 00:50:15,612
Oh, sorry.
You know what, l just got it.
782
00:50:15,822 --> 00:50:17,301
Okay.
783
00:50:17,942 --> 00:50:22,697
l'll stick this right next
to my video club membership. . .
784
00:50:22,902 --> 00:50:27,339
. . .and there's no reason
my staff ever has to know about it.
785
00:50:27,542 --> 00:50:30,295
The best thing to do is
to forget about it.
786
00:50:30,742 --> 00:50:32,573
l'll go now.
787
00:50:47,062 --> 00:50:49,701
The rise in the
Producer's Price lndex. . .
788
00:50:49,902 --> 00:50:52,257
. . .coupled with
the tight labor market. . .
789
00:50:52,462 --> 00:50:55,772
. . .have caused inflation concerns.
Are you worried?
790
00:50:55,982 --> 00:50:58,621
No, Helen.
Our economy is fundamentally--
791
00:51:00,342 --> 00:51:03,698
l wasn't Helen there.
l was Sandy King.
792
00:51:03,902 --> 00:51:06,894
-The Miami Herald?
-She moved to the Sun-Times.
793
00:51:07,102 --> 00:51:10,651
-That sounded like your Helen.
-Are you concerned?
794
00:51:11,022 --> 00:51:14,617
Not at all. Our economy
remains fundamentally strong. . .
795
00:51:14,822 --> 00:51:19,418
. . .shown by the drop in unemployment.
lt's a cause for satisfaction.
796
00:51:19,622 --> 00:51:23,251
A solitary spike in the PPl
is not cause for overreaction.
797
00:51:23,462 --> 00:51:27,011
Also, there's been no increase
in wholesale prices.
798
00:51:27,222 --> 00:51:30,339
lf you could see clear
to not answer the question. . .
799
00:51:30,542 --> 00:51:34,455
. . .like a professor with a stick up
his butt, that'd be good.
800
00:51:34,662 --> 00:51:38,814
l am a professor with a
stick up my butt, but l'll do my best.
801
00:51:39,262 --> 00:51:41,298
-That's it for the economy.
-Guns.
802
00:51:41,622 --> 00:51:44,659
-We don't need to.
-They'll ask about guns.
803
00:51:44,862 --> 00:51:47,535
l know they'll ask,
l'm saying l'm set.
804
00:51:47,742 --> 00:51:50,779
-A question or two.
-ls it time for my scolding?
805
00:51:50,982 --> 00:51:53,450
-Are we having this argument?
-Sir?
806
00:51:53,662 --> 00:51:55,812
Let's do guns, Sam.
807
00:51:56,022 --> 00:51:59,651
ls there any reason to believe
this weapons ban bill. . .
808
00:51:59,862 --> 00:52:02,979
-. . .will have any reduction in crime?
-Yes. Next.
809
00:52:04,022 --> 00:52:07,139
Mr. Zeigler, you have a follow-up?
810
00:52:07,342 --> 00:52:10,698
We're lucky to get the question
and you blow it off?
811
00:52:11,142 --> 00:52:14,339
-Yes.
-With due respect, may l ask why?
812
00:52:14,982 --> 00:52:18,019
-l'm weak-willed and stupid.
-Let's do this later.
813
00:52:18,222 --> 00:52:21,419
-We talked.
-l talked it over with other people.
814
00:52:21,622 --> 00:52:24,932
-Which people?
-l have lots of other people.
815
00:52:25,142 --> 00:52:27,656
We are missing a huge opportunity.
816
00:52:31,422 --> 00:52:33,014
What's going on?
817
00:52:36,382 --> 00:52:39,454
-We're doing the thing.
-Why aren't you in there?
818
00:52:39,662 --> 00:52:44,338
-l was just going in.
-How are Toby and the president?
819
00:52:44,542 --> 00:52:49,855
-They are having a disagreement.
-A disagreement or a fight?
820
00:52:50,062 --> 00:52:53,816
-lt certainly has the potential--
-For God's sake, Toby!
821
00:52:54,022 --> 00:52:55,853
There we go.
822
00:52:56,942 --> 00:52:58,421
Let's go in.
823
00:52:59,462 --> 00:53:02,340
Josh, let's go in.
824
00:53:02,542 --> 00:53:05,534
-Sir?
-l won't say the bill is worthless.
825
00:53:05,742 --> 00:53:08,575
lf we can just admit
its weaknesses, why not?
826
00:53:08,782 --> 00:53:14,061
lt'll anger the left, energize the
right and the middle will feel played.
827
00:53:14,262 --> 00:53:16,412
Sorry, did you want to answer?
828
00:53:16,622 --> 00:53:19,261
l'd have said, ''Because l said so. ''
829
00:53:19,462 --> 00:53:22,215
Why take a victory
and declare defeat?
830
00:53:22,422 --> 00:53:24,936
Toby, by changing some words--
831
00:53:25,142 --> 00:53:28,054
-The world moves on a few words.
-Your point?
832
00:53:28,262 --> 00:53:30,901
l have many.
l choose not to make them now.
833
00:53:31,102 --> 00:53:35,573
On behalf of everybody here,
let me say that that's a relief.
834
00:53:35,782 --> 00:53:37,773
-Excuse me, Leo.
-Yes?
835
00:53:37,982 --> 00:53:39,938
My cheese appointment is here. . .
836
00:53:40,142 --> 00:53:43,259
-. . .but the conference takes priority.
-l agree.
837
00:53:43,462 --> 00:53:45,657
No!
838
00:53:45,862 --> 00:53:47,534
You won't get out of it.
839
00:53:47,742 --> 00:53:51,098
-This is an important conference.
-lt's unimportant.
840
00:53:51,302 --> 00:53:55,818
-lt's about our future.
-lt's about not having one lately.
841
00:53:56,062 --> 00:53:57,177
Sam, go.
842
00:53:57,382 --> 00:53:59,657
-Mr. President?
-We're going too.
843
00:53:59,862 --> 00:54:03,696
-Sir?
-We'll pick this up this afternoon.
844
00:54:04,902 --> 00:54:07,416
You're from
United States Space Command.
845
00:54:07,622 --> 00:54:09,817
-Few know about us.
-My first time.
846
00:54:10,022 --> 00:54:13,856
-We're a little nerdy, l'll admit.
-You camouflage it well.
847
00:54:14,262 --> 00:54:16,822
-l'm used to that.
-What can l do?
848
00:54:17,022 --> 00:54:19,058
-ln a nutshell?
-So to speak.
849
00:54:19,262 --> 00:54:22,777
We'd like you to pay
more attention to UFOs.
850
00:54:24,262 --> 00:54:27,334
-Are we paying any attention at all?
-No.
851
00:54:27,542 --> 00:54:31,251
We have enough trouble
with the first lady's Ouija board.
852
00:54:31,462 --> 00:54:33,976
l'd like to show the president data. . .
853
00:54:34,182 --> 00:54:37,140
. . .on possible
extraterrestrial contact.
854
00:54:37,342 --> 00:54:39,458
-l can't do that.
-Why not?
855
00:54:39,942 --> 00:54:44,220
He'll either yell or laugh at me.
Either way is bad for me.
856
00:54:44,902 --> 00:54:48,133
This morning, at 6:35 a.m. . .
857
00:54:48,342 --> 00:54:52,733
. . .air traffic control in Honolulu
picked up a UFO. . .
858
00:54:52,942 --> 00:54:56,457
. . .flying east across the Pacific,
towards California.
859
00:54:56,662 --> 00:54:59,051
Navy jets have been in the area. . .
860
00:54:59,262 --> 00:55:02,572
. . .and have been unable
to establish visual contact.
861
00:55:02,782 --> 00:55:04,613
These things go unexplained.
862
00:55:04,822 --> 00:55:07,336
Shouldn't you take this
to the president?
863
00:55:07,542 --> 00:55:10,500
-No.
-Again, may l ask why not?
864
00:55:10,702 --> 00:55:14,092
There are levels in
our Air Defense Command.
865
00:55:14,302 --> 00:55:18,420
To jump from a radar officer to the
president skips levels.
866
00:55:18,622 --> 00:55:22,331
-Like what?
-Like the Pentagon and therapy.
867
00:55:22,542 --> 00:55:25,579
-Okay, l can see that--
-No hard feelings. . .
868
00:55:25,782 --> 00:55:27,977
. . .but l can't ask the president. . .
869
00:55:28,182 --> 00:55:31,618
. . .to put down the budget surplus
because of UFOs.
870
00:55:31,822 --> 00:55:34,973
Something's heading east
over the Pacific.
871
00:55:35,182 --> 00:55:38,333
lt's in and out of our radar,
we can't see it.
872
00:55:38,542 --> 00:55:41,614
lt's up there right now.
l leave you with that.
873
00:55:41,822 --> 00:55:45,576
l hope that you don't feel
that you've wasted your time.
874
00:55:45,782 --> 00:55:47,261
Here's a pen.
875
00:55:47,462 --> 00:55:50,977
The president isn't wild about
Posner's fundraiser. . .
876
00:55:51,182 --> 00:55:54,492
. . .but l think we can't pass.
Where are you on this?
877
00:55:54,702 --> 00:55:58,581
Don't worry about me,
you have to worry about Toby.
878
00:55:58,782 --> 00:56:02,570
-That's why l'm shoring up support.
-l'm in.
879
00:56:03,942 --> 00:56:06,297
They sent pictures
of the Malibu place.
880
00:56:06,502 --> 00:56:09,699
-The one from the primary?
-No, he bought another.
881
00:56:09,902 --> 00:56:13,019
Where did Robert Benigni
push me into the pool?
882
00:56:13,222 --> 00:56:16,180
That was Larry Posner's old place.
883
00:56:16,582 --> 00:56:20,939
-lf it gets a vote, isn't it worth it?
-lf Benigni could vote here.
884
00:56:21,142 --> 00:56:25,340
Since he's ltalian, l'm just a wet
girl in a Donna Karan dress.
885
00:56:25,542 --> 00:56:28,102
l'm the only one
who isn't an economist.
886
00:56:28,302 --> 00:56:30,941
But it seems to me
the annual budget. . .
887
00:56:31,142 --> 00:56:34,896
. . .is found either in balance,
in deficit, or in surplus.
888
00:56:35,102 --> 00:56:39,573
l don't know how to tell Congress,
much less 8th grade graduates. . .
889
00:56:39,782 --> 00:56:41,852
. . .that there's any in-between.
890
00:56:42,062 --> 00:56:45,259
He's not talking about anything
being off-budget.
891
00:56:45,462 --> 00:56:48,852
-Especially long-term capital outlays.
-You lost me.
892
00:56:49,062 --> 00:56:51,974
ln 1 991 , the budget had a
deficit of $22 billion.
893
00:56:52,182 --> 00:56:55,936
But the national debt rose
from 5.2 trillion to 5.4 trillion. . .
894
00:56:56,142 --> 00:56:57,655
. . .in the same year.
895
00:56:57,862 --> 00:57:04,335
That's a debt increase of $ 1 88 billion
against a $22 billion deficit.
896
00:57:04,542 --> 00:57:05,941
This is good news.
897
00:57:06,142 --> 00:57:09,817
-You knew those numbers?
-He's freakish.
898
00:57:10,422 --> 00:57:13,016
-Zoey's coming for dinner.
-She's in town?
899
00:57:13,222 --> 00:57:16,737
My daughter's starting Georgetown
after the first.
900
00:57:16,942 --> 00:57:19,376
We're done.
My staff is waiting. . .
901
00:57:19,582 --> 00:57:23,018
. . .and they haven't bothered me
for a few hours.
902
00:57:23,222 --> 00:57:26,658
l'm gonna make chili.
l'll make it for everybody.
903
00:57:27,382 --> 00:57:30,340
My friends, my daughter,
my beer and some chili!
904
00:57:30,542 --> 00:57:33,261
You're gonna be the one to cook?
905
00:57:34,582 --> 00:57:39,019
My daughter, Zoey, is down
from Hanover. l'm making chili.
906
00:57:39,222 --> 00:57:43,056
-The first lady--
-She's in Pakistan. l eat what l want.
907
00:57:43,262 --> 00:57:45,139
-l need ingredients.
-What?
908
00:57:45,342 --> 00:57:47,492
-Chili.
-Don't listen to him.
909
00:57:48,102 --> 00:57:51,651
Mrs. Landingham wrote it down.
Give it to the steward.
910
00:57:51,862 --> 00:57:54,695
And send everyone in.
Thank you, Charlie.
911
00:57:54,902 --> 00:57:57,621
How could you remember
that 1 0 years ago. . .
912
00:57:57,822 --> 00:58:02,771
. . .there was a $ 1 88 billion debt
increase off a $22 billion deficit?
913
00:58:02,982 --> 00:58:06,577
-God, l was right?
-That's what l thought.
914
00:58:07,662 --> 00:58:09,857
Everyone, come in.
915
00:58:10,062 --> 00:58:12,098
Listen up, everybody.
916
00:58:12,302 --> 00:58:15,772
Zoey's down from Hanover,
l'm making chili tonight.
917
00:58:16,702 --> 00:58:20,377
-Okay.
-Great. Chili.
918
00:58:20,662 --> 00:58:22,459
Let's do this:
919
00:58:22,662 --> 00:58:27,213
Look down at the big seal
in the middle of my carpet.
920
00:58:28,262 --> 00:58:31,095
Now, everybody
look back up at me.
921
00:58:31,302 --> 00:58:34,453
Zoey's down from Hanover,
and l'm making chili.
922
00:58:34,662 --> 00:58:36,254
-That's great!
-Terrific!
923
00:58:36,462 --> 00:58:38,339
See how benevolent l can be. . .
924
00:58:38,542 --> 00:58:42,774
. . .when everybody does what l say?
Now, sit down.
925
00:58:43,142 --> 00:58:46,418
l want this meeting
to last three minutes.
926
00:58:46,622 --> 00:58:49,500
l will allow it to last
no more than five.
927
00:58:49,982 --> 00:58:52,212
We're going to California soon.
928
00:58:52,422 --> 00:58:54,572
Larry Posner wants a fundraiser.
929
00:58:54,782 --> 00:58:56,295
-No.
-Why?
930
00:58:56,502 --> 00:59:00,381
The day before,
the president is giving a speech. . .
931
00:59:00,582 --> 00:59:03,733
-. . .on violence in film.
-One he shouldn't give.
932
00:59:03,942 --> 00:59:05,898
-That's beside the point.
-So?
933
00:59:06,102 --> 00:59:09,333
-Posner's movies are violent.
-So is The Godfather.
934
00:59:09,542 --> 00:59:13,740
What you mean to say is
Posner's movies are bad.
935
00:59:13,942 --> 00:59:16,502
l mean to say,
his movies are indicative. . .
936
00:59:16,702 --> 00:59:20,251
. . .of a Hollywood that is
excessively, arrogantly violent. . .
937
00:59:20,462 --> 00:59:24,580
. . .and is promoting violence
and the disrespect of human life.
938
00:59:25,102 --> 00:59:29,095
We can't admonish them Tuesday
and cash their check Wednesday.
939
00:59:29,302 --> 00:59:32,453
lt's Hollywood.
Who gives a damn?
940
00:59:32,662 --> 00:59:35,256
Hang on a second,
Mr. President.
941
00:59:35,462 --> 00:59:38,932
l'm drafting a speech
for the entertainment industry. . .
942
00:59:39,142 --> 00:59:44,011
. . .where we come out and say that
much of their product is corruptive.
943
00:59:44,222 --> 00:59:49,979
Are we doing this because we want them
to take moral leadership seriously. . .
944
00:59:50,182 --> 00:59:54,095
. . .or because nobody has lost
an election attacking Hollywood?
945
00:59:54,302 --> 00:59:56,975
Why can't we do both?
946
00:59:57,182 --> 01:00:00,333
-lt's not hypocritical?
-No, because Sam is right.
947
01:00:00,542 --> 01:00:05,093
lt's not that Larry Posner's movies
have sex and violence.
948
01:00:05,302 --> 01:00:07,020
They suck.
They're terrible.
949
01:00:07,222 --> 01:00:10,692
But people see them
because they have sex and violence.
950
01:00:10,902 --> 01:00:15,692
lf people stop seeing crappy movies,
Posner would stop making them.
951
01:00:15,902 --> 01:00:18,700
ls that strategy working
in the war on drugs?
952
01:00:18,902 --> 01:00:21,700
We are imploring these people. . .
953
01:00:21,902 --> 01:00:24,939
. . .to step up
and not be quite so casual. . .
954
01:00:25,142 --> 01:00:27,610
. . .with the awesome influence
they have.
955
01:00:27,822 --> 01:00:32,020
But whenever someone blows thunder
at this ridiculous target. . .
956
01:00:32,222 --> 01:00:35,897
. . .it only distracts from the pursuit
of actual solutions!
957
01:00:36,102 --> 01:00:37,740
Let me say one thing.
958
01:00:37,942 --> 01:00:41,821
lf l were an actor or a writer
or a director. . .
959
01:00:42,022 --> 01:00:45,332
. . .and someone came at me
with lists of things. . .
960
01:00:45,542 --> 01:00:50,252
. . .that were American and un-American,
it would sound eerily familiar.
961
01:00:50,462 --> 01:00:53,454
Do l look like Joe McCarthy to you?
962
01:00:53,662 --> 01:00:58,690
Nobody ever looks like Joe McCarthy.
That's how they get in the door.
963
01:00:58,902 --> 01:01:01,939
We seem to have
wandered off the point a bit.
964
01:01:02,142 --> 01:01:05,373
-Yeah, and time's up.
-Thank you, Mr. President.
965
01:01:05,582 --> 01:01:08,574
-Chili tonight!
-Yes, sir.
966
01:01:10,102 --> 01:01:13,174
-Are you okay?
-Yeah.
967
01:01:13,382 --> 01:01:16,101
-You look a little. . . .
-No, no.
968
01:01:16,902 --> 01:01:19,575
-Know that donut on your desk?
-You ate it?
969
01:01:19,782 --> 01:01:21,659
That was predictable, wasn't it?
970
01:01:21,862 --> 01:01:25,935
-Any word yet on the. . . .
-The thing's still out there.
971
01:01:26,502 --> 01:01:30,051
l had a guy who wants us
to spend more time on UFOs.
972
01:01:30,262 --> 01:01:32,776
-We spend time on UFOs?
-l said that.
973
01:01:32,982 --> 01:01:36,861
After the Ouija board. . . .
l'm closing the door.
974
01:01:37,062 --> 01:01:39,576
CPC picked this thing up on radar.
975
01:01:39,782 --> 01:01:42,376
-Sam.
-Right.
976
01:01:43,502 --> 01:01:46,619
Listen, you're close
with Cathy, right?
977
01:01:47,222 --> 01:01:51,613
-l haven't seen her naked.
-That's not what l'm asking.
978
01:01:51,982 --> 01:01:56,578
She's like my younger sister,
but she's paid and she frightens me.
979
01:01:56,782 --> 01:01:59,296
But l love her.
lt's like you and Donna.
980
01:01:59,502 --> 01:02:01,333
Right.
981
01:02:02,182 --> 01:02:06,255
When they gave you the card
and said it's you and not Cathy. . .
982
01:02:06,502 --> 01:02:09,380
. . .how did you feel about that?
983
01:02:09,582 --> 01:02:13,052
-Gave me what card?
-The NSC card with directions.
984
01:02:13,262 --> 01:02:15,617
The directions to. . .?
985
01:02:15,822 --> 01:02:19,371
You, C.J., Toby.
986
01:02:19,582 --> 01:02:22,574
When the NSC guy gave you your cards.
987
01:02:26,262 --> 01:02:28,696
Josh, what card?
988
01:02:32,142 --> 01:02:34,337
Nothing.
989
01:02:35,862 --> 01:02:38,057
l was thinking of a different. . . .
990
01:02:38,262 --> 01:02:40,696
Nothing.
991
01:02:43,062 --> 01:02:45,257
We'd like to tell you about Pluie.
992
01:02:45,462 --> 01:02:47,737
-Who's Pluie?
-l'm glad you asked.
993
01:02:47,942 --> 01:02:49,694
-That's Pluie?
-Yes.
994
01:02:49,902 --> 01:02:51,779
-Pluie's a wolf?
-She is.
995
01:02:51,982 --> 01:02:54,780
And you're gonna
tell me her story?
996
01:02:54,982 --> 01:02:57,371
For 4 years, scientists
tracked Pluie. . .
997
01:02:57,582 --> 01:03:00,096
. . .as she made her way from Alberta. . .
998
01:03:00,302 --> 01:03:01,974
. . .up and down the Rockies.
999
01:03:02,182 --> 01:03:05,618
She's made 3 round trips
between Canada and Wyoming.
1000
01:03:05,822 --> 01:03:07,460
40,000 square miles.
1001
01:03:07,662 --> 01:03:10,495
lt was an impressive performance. . .
1002
01:03:10,702 --> 01:03:15,093
. . .considering the impediments
of modern life she had to conquer.
1003
01:03:15,302 --> 01:03:19,090
Highways, housing,
forests denuded of trees.
1004
01:03:19,302 --> 01:03:23,739
-And the U.S.-Canadian border.
-Sure, no photo lD.
1005
01:03:24,542 --> 01:03:26,260
l'm sorry?
1006
01:03:26,982 --> 01:03:28,859
That was a joke.
1007
01:03:29,462 --> 01:03:31,100
Why does Pluie do it?
1008
01:03:31,542 --> 01:03:36,662
Wolves have to breed with many packs
to keep from becoming extinct.
1009
01:03:36,862 --> 01:03:41,617
lf they breed among themselves,
they'll become genetically weaker. . .
1010
01:03:41,862 --> 01:03:44,092
. . .endangering long-term survival.
1011
01:03:44,302 --> 01:03:46,816
That helps explain Buckingham Palace.
1012
01:03:48,022 --> 01:03:50,616
-May we tell you what we propose?
-Sure.
1013
01:03:51,982 --> 01:03:55,054
The wolves-only roadway.
1014
01:03:55,862 --> 01:03:57,580
The wolves-only roadway?
1015
01:03:57,782 --> 01:04:01,661
1 800 miles, from Yellowstone
to the Yukon territory. . .
1016
01:04:01,862 --> 01:04:04,137
. . .with highway overpasses.
1017
01:04:04,342 --> 01:04:08,415
-An 1 800-mile wolves-only roadway?
-Pluie had to--
1018
01:04:08,622 --> 01:04:11,500
How do you teach wolves
to follow road signs?
1019
01:04:11,702 --> 01:04:14,057
Our scientists
are working on a plan.
1020
01:04:14,262 --> 01:04:19,290
Pluie's gonna get drunk,
wander off the road and eat my cat.
1021
01:04:21,142 --> 01:04:24,896
-We don't think that'll happen.
-l don't think this'll happen.
1022
01:04:25,102 --> 01:04:28,936
Ranchers don't want wolves
returned to the West.
1023
01:04:29,142 --> 01:04:31,372
-Ranchers are killers.
-They aren't.
1024
01:04:31,582 --> 01:04:33,220
You should take that back.
1025
01:04:33,422 --> 01:04:37,893
Ranchers face falling stock prices,
rising taxes, drought. . .
1026
01:04:38,102 --> 01:04:40,332
. . .and people eating less beef.
1027
01:04:40,542 --> 01:04:43,261
They want to blame something.
1028
01:04:43,462 --> 01:04:45,976
l'd rather it be a wolf than us.
1029
01:04:46,182 --> 01:04:50,937
Pluie was shot and killed
by a rancher last month.
1030
01:04:55,662 --> 01:04:59,211
l'm sorry to hear that.
1031
01:04:59,422 --> 01:05:02,255
l'm not sure you are.
1032
01:05:02,982 --> 01:05:05,257
How much would it cost?
1033
01:05:05,462 --> 01:05:09,421
That's the beauty part.
With corporate sponsorship. . .
1034
01:05:09,622 --> 01:05:14,901
. . .the cost to the taxpayer
is only $900 million.
1035
01:05:20,302 --> 01:05:22,532
Seriously, how much would it cost?
1036
01:05:22,742 --> 01:05:25,575
lf we're gonna do this,
why not do it right?
1037
01:05:25,782 --> 01:05:27,215
We're not gonna do it.
1038
01:05:27,422 --> 01:05:29,856
Sure, there are
other ways to spend.
1039
01:05:30,062 --> 01:05:31,211
You think?
1040
01:05:31,422 --> 01:05:33,856
What's a better way
to spend the money?
1041
01:05:34,062 --> 01:05:35,973
$900 million?
1042
01:05:36,182 --> 01:05:38,457
Another war plane or S & L bailout?
1043
01:05:38,662 --> 01:05:41,130
How about the nine best schools?
1044
01:05:41,342 --> 01:05:44,300
Let's move on
to the grizzly bear.
1045
01:05:50,302 --> 01:05:51,496
Can l talk to you?
1046
01:05:51,742 --> 01:05:55,257
Did you get him a spot
on Hollywood Squares?
1047
01:05:55,462 --> 01:05:58,215
You know Posner's a huge supporter.
1048
01:05:58,422 --> 01:06:00,014
l know.
1049
01:06:00,222 --> 01:06:02,861
-l came to be nice to you.
-Go ahead.
1050
01:06:03,382 --> 01:06:07,341
-l don't like going against you.
-l don't either.
1051
01:06:10,102 --> 01:06:12,696
That's you being nice?
1052
01:06:14,502 --> 01:06:17,574
l'm glad Rosen
passed on the communications job.
1053
01:06:17,782 --> 01:06:20,421
They couldn't have
done better than you.
1054
01:06:21,302 --> 01:06:22,781
Excuse me?
1055
01:06:22,982 --> 01:06:27,055
You're a better director
than David Rosen would've been.
1056
01:06:27,822 --> 01:06:29,574
That's me being nice.
1057
01:06:29,782 --> 01:06:33,377
-l asked if l was the first choice. . .
-Back to this?
1058
01:06:33,582 --> 01:06:35,254
. . .you called me paranoid.
1059
01:06:35,462 --> 01:06:37,657
You called me a paranoid nudnik.
1060
01:06:37,862 --> 01:06:41,616
For the last time, you weren't the
president's second choice.
1061
01:06:41,822 --> 01:06:43,574
-And David Rosen?
-What?
1062
01:06:43,782 --> 01:06:45,420
Mandy was in my office.
1063
01:06:45,622 --> 01:06:48,295
She said she's happy
Rosen passed on my job.
1064
01:06:48,502 --> 01:06:51,699
We'll start in a few minutes.
Give fair warning.
1065
01:06:51,942 --> 01:06:55,651
l don't know anything.
Where is this coming from?
1066
01:06:55,862 --> 01:06:59,411
Help me with the gun thing.
Hollywood can wait.
1067
01:06:59,622 --> 01:07:01,499
Since when do you need help?
1068
01:07:01,702 --> 01:07:04,341
Since l became the kid
raising his hand. . .
1069
01:07:04,542 --> 01:07:07,534
. . .that nobody wants
the teacher to call on.
1070
01:07:07,862 --> 01:07:10,251
Just help me, please.
1071
01:07:10,742 --> 01:07:13,620
l appreciate you
squeezing me in like this.
1072
01:07:13,822 --> 01:07:15,460
l was able to cancel someone.
1073
01:07:15,662 --> 01:07:18,256
You shouldn't have,
it's not a big deal.
1074
01:07:18,462 --> 01:07:20,737
What's not a big deal?
1075
01:07:21,342 --> 01:07:23,219
l'm out of practice.
1076
01:07:23,422 --> 01:07:25,982
That comes from
not seeing me for months.
1077
01:07:26,182 --> 01:07:29,970
The idea would make the people
l work for nervous.
1078
01:07:30,222 --> 01:07:32,816
Why are you here now?
1079
01:07:33,022 --> 01:07:35,058
This is gonna sound silly.
1080
01:07:38,862 --> 01:07:44,220
There's a magazine article--
A magazine article came out. . .
1081
01:07:44,422 --> 01:07:50,019
. . .and it said several countries
have stored the smallpox virus.
1082
01:07:50,542 --> 01:07:54,660
-Are you afraid you have smallpox?
-No.
1083
01:07:56,822 --> 01:07:59,017
Don't laugh.
1084
01:08:00,422 --> 01:08:04,620
-l have Ave Maria stuck in my head.
-The Schubert?
1085
01:08:04,822 --> 01:08:08,815
Yeah, l've been humming it
to myself all morning.
1086
01:08:11,382 --> 01:08:15,500
-Why do you think the Ave Maria?
-Why do you think?
1087
01:08:15,702 --> 01:08:17,932
l don't know.
1088
01:08:19,222 --> 01:08:24,501
My sister played it over and over,
l don't know how many years ago.
1089
01:08:24,702 --> 01:08:26,897
-Your sister who died?
-Joanie.
1090
01:08:27,742 --> 01:08:30,779
Why did Joanie play
the Ave Maria in her room?
1091
01:08:30,982 --> 01:08:34,497
She liked music.
A lot.
1092
01:08:35,302 --> 01:08:37,133
She wanted to be a conductor.
1093
01:08:37,342 --> 01:08:41,460
She used to pretend she was
conducting to the music.
1094
01:08:41,662 --> 01:08:46,133
Anyway, that, and l was
a little thrown off this morning. . .
1095
01:08:46,342 --> 01:08:48,572
. . .when they gave me this card.
1096
01:08:48,782 --> 01:08:51,342
l was the only one who got one.
1097
01:08:51,542 --> 01:08:55,330
l mean, of my friends.
That surprised me.
1098
01:08:55,542 --> 01:08:57,339
-Joanie, Toby and C.J.
-Joanie?
1099
01:08:57,782 --> 01:09:00,615
-What?
-You named Joanie in there.
1100
01:09:01,422 --> 01:09:04,300
You said you got a card
and Joanie didn't.
1101
01:09:04,502 --> 01:09:06,857
l meant. . . . No.
1102
01:09:08,582 --> 01:09:11,858
We were just talking about Joanie.
1103
01:09:12,222 --> 01:09:13,735
What kind of card?
1104
01:09:13,942 --> 01:09:16,217
lt was. . . .
1105
01:09:16,702 --> 01:09:19,136
There are things l can't discuss.
1106
01:09:19,342 --> 01:09:24,974
l'm not withholding anything
l should be emotionally available for.
1107
01:09:26,182 --> 01:09:28,537
-Okay.
-Thanks.
1108
01:09:29,742 --> 01:09:32,734
Can you talk about it,
but not talk about it?
1109
01:09:32,942 --> 01:09:34,694
l gotta go.
1110
01:09:34,902 --> 01:09:39,100
-Sorry you canceled an appointment.
-But l did cancel.
1111
01:09:39,302 --> 01:09:43,818
-Take off your coat.
-lt was impulsive, l wasted your time.
1112
01:09:44,022 --> 01:09:48,140
Do you think it's strange
you haven't told me how Joanie died?
1113
01:09:48,342 --> 01:09:50,776
-l've told you.
-No, you haven't.
1114
01:09:50,982 --> 01:09:53,860
-Sure, l have.
-No.
1115
01:09:55,102 --> 01:09:57,377
lt's not a big deal.
1116
01:10:05,222 --> 01:10:09,261
She was babysitting for me
and there was a fire.
1117
01:10:10,102 --> 01:10:12,252
How'd the fire start?
1118
01:10:16,062 --> 01:10:18,860
l honestly don't remember.
1119
01:10:20,222 --> 01:10:23,294
Something about a popcorn maker.
1120
01:10:23,502 --> 01:10:26,460
And the house caught on fire?
1121
01:10:28,262 --> 01:10:31,413
-Yeah.
-While Joanie was babysitting you?
1122
01:10:36,102 --> 01:10:38,252
Why aren't you dead?
1123
01:10:43,342 --> 01:10:45,856
l ran out of the house.
1124
01:10:47,742 --> 01:10:53,453
You were just a little boy.
That's what you were supposed to do.
1125
01:11:25,862 --> 01:11:28,296
l was knocking,
but you didn't answer.
1126
01:11:28,502 --> 01:11:31,892
-l didn't hear the door.
-What are you doing?
1127
01:11:32,102 --> 01:11:35,890
l'm ready to brief the president
on the smallpox article.
1128
01:11:36,102 --> 01:11:39,936
Forget about that for tonight
and come have some chili.
1129
01:11:40,142 --> 01:11:43,657
An NSC staffer gave me a card
with instructions. . .
1130
01:11:43,862 --> 01:11:46,660
. . .for what to do
in a nuclear attack.
1131
01:11:46,862 --> 01:11:52,858
They want me up in a plane or down
in a bunker. They don't want you.
1132
01:11:53,542 --> 01:11:57,899
Or Sam or Toby, for that matter.
1133
01:11:59,502 --> 01:12:03,654
l didn't want to be friends with you
and have you not know.
1134
01:12:04,862 --> 01:12:06,932
Have you been upset about this?
1135
01:12:08,382 --> 01:12:09,895
Yes.
1136
01:12:11,302 --> 01:12:13,657
You're sweet sometimes,
you really are.
1137
01:12:13,862 --> 01:12:17,332
Of course they don't want me,
l'm a press secretary.
1138
01:12:17,542 --> 01:12:19,851
They won't be issuing any releases.
1139
01:12:20,062 --> 01:12:24,533
Sam and Toby are communications.
And speeches won't be a priority.
1140
01:12:24,742 --> 01:12:27,540
Come. Have some fun.
1141
01:12:28,382 --> 01:12:31,897
This is a beautiful piece of music.
Do you know this?
1142
01:12:32,102 --> 01:12:34,252
l'm Catholic.
1143
01:12:34,702 --> 01:12:36,658
Hang on, listen. . . .
1144
01:12:40,142 --> 01:12:42,702
That, right there.
1145
01:12:46,222 --> 01:12:49,771
lt's miraculous.
1146
01:12:53,702 --> 01:12:57,058
-Schubert was crazy, you know?
-Yes.
1147
01:12:59,142 --> 01:13:02,896
Do you have to be crazy
to create something powerful?
1148
01:13:03,102 --> 01:13:04,979
The Cold War is over. There's--
1149
01:13:05,182 --> 01:13:09,300
God, C.J.,
it's not gonna be like that.
1150
01:13:10,222 --> 01:13:14,056
lt's not gonna be the red phone
and nuclear bombs.
1151
01:13:14,262 --> 01:13:17,060
-What's it gonna be?
-lt's gonna be this.
1152
01:13:17,262 --> 01:13:22,620
Smallpox has been gone for 50 years.
No one has an acquired immunity.
1153
01:13:22,822 --> 01:13:27,020
lt flies through the air.
You carry a 1 0-foot cloud around you.
1154
01:13:27,222 --> 01:13:31,773
lf 1 00 people in New York City got it,
you'd have to encircle them. . .
1155
01:13:31,982 --> 01:13:35,691
. . .with 1 00 million vaccinated people
to contain it.
1156
01:13:35,942 --> 01:13:39,571
Do you know how many doses
of the vaccine exist here?
1157
01:13:39,822 --> 01:13:41,972
Seven.
1158
01:13:42,182 --> 01:13:45,413
1 00 people get it,
we'll have a global emergency. . .
1159
01:13:45,622 --> 01:13:49,251
. . .that'll make HlV
look like cold and flu season.
1160
01:13:50,182 --> 01:13:55,575
lt's gonna be a test tube with a
rubber cap that's deteriorating.
1161
01:13:55,782 --> 01:13:58,979
A guy steps out of
Times Square station--
1162
01:13:59,182 --> 01:14:02,060
Smashes it on the sidewalk.
1163
01:14:02,262 --> 01:14:04,822
There's a world war right there.
1164
01:14:12,502 --> 01:14:15,221
We'll make more vaccine.
1165
01:14:16,582 --> 01:14:20,177
You better hurry.
l'm the only one with a card.
1166
01:14:21,222 --> 01:14:25,340
-The president is asking for you.
-ln a minute.
1167
01:14:25,542 --> 01:14:28,659
You really are very sweet sometimes.
1168
01:14:35,622 --> 01:14:40,173
lt's all about the fundamentals.
Keep your feet moving on defense.
1169
01:14:40,422 --> 01:14:43,334
Pass and get open on offense.
1170
01:14:43,542 --> 01:14:46,261
l am a master of the fundamentals.
1171
01:14:46,462 --> 01:14:49,898
That is why my team
thoroughly dominated yours.
1172
01:14:50,102 --> 01:14:53,538
Didn't hurt having
an ACC Player of the Week.
1173
01:14:53,742 --> 01:14:57,178
-Kids don't understand.
-No appreciation for the game.
1174
01:14:57,382 --> 01:14:58,701
-Are you drunk?
-No.
1175
01:14:58,902 --> 01:15:01,336
-Now, why--
-l just like asking.
1176
01:15:01,542 --> 01:15:04,295
-l tell you--
-Give it up. Where's Zoey?
1177
01:15:04,502 --> 01:15:05,981
She's in the kitchen.
1178
01:15:06,182 --> 01:15:08,571
Wolves don't kill people.
lt's a myth.
1179
01:15:08,782 --> 01:15:10,693
Now she's become a wolf person?
1180
01:15:10,902 --> 01:15:16,260
More people are killed getting change
out of vending machines.
1181
01:15:16,462 --> 01:15:19,534
People killed last year
by vending machines: four.
1182
01:15:19,742 --> 01:15:22,495
Number of people killed
by wolf attack: zero.
1183
01:15:22,742 --> 01:15:24,619
Excuse me.
1184
01:15:24,822 --> 01:15:26,938
People die from vending machines?
1185
01:15:27,142 --> 01:15:30,851
-Hey, good to see you.
-Mr. President.
1186
01:15:38,862 --> 01:15:42,411
l guess we haven't been
getting along too well, lately.
1187
01:15:43,022 --> 01:15:44,660
No, l guess not.
1188
01:15:44,862 --> 01:15:49,014
-l've been irritating you?
-Yes.
1189
01:15:50,302 --> 01:15:53,931
Was David Rosen
your first choice for my job?
1190
01:15:57,342 --> 01:15:59,492
Yes.
1191
01:16:00,982 --> 01:16:03,974
l'm glad we had this little talk.
1192
01:16:04,182 --> 01:16:06,616
l feel a lot better, thanks.
1193
01:16:06,822 --> 01:16:09,620
We were up all night
on that one, Toby.
1194
01:16:09,822 --> 01:16:12,177
Me and Leo and Josh.
1195
01:16:12,382 --> 01:16:16,534
They were screaming at me,
''Governor, it's gotta be Toby. ''
1196
01:16:17,382 --> 01:16:20,055
l held my ground
and we went to Rosen.
1197
01:16:20,262 --> 01:16:25,336
And he wanted to take a partnership
at Salomon Brothers, thank God.
1198
01:16:26,022 --> 01:16:28,138
l couldn't live without you.
1199
01:16:28,342 --> 01:16:32,813
l mean it, l'd be in the tall grass.
ln the weeds.
1200
01:16:33,902 --> 01:16:38,373
l know l disappoint you sometimes.
l can sense it.
1201
01:16:38,582 --> 01:16:42,052
l only get mad because
you're right a lot of times.
1202
01:16:44,062 --> 01:16:47,179
You aren't the kid in class
with his hand up.
1203
01:16:47,382 --> 01:16:50,215
Whatever it was you said to C.J.
1204
01:16:50,422 --> 01:16:54,540
You are a wise
and brilliant man, Toby.
1205
01:16:59,062 --> 01:17:04,261
The other night, on the court,
did you mean what you said?
1206
01:17:04,462 --> 01:17:08,978
That my demons were shouting down
my better angels?
1207
01:17:09,182 --> 01:17:11,571
Yes, sir, l did.
1208
01:17:14,422 --> 01:17:18,620
You think that's
what's stopping me from greatness?
1209
01:17:18,822 --> 01:17:20,938
Yes.
1210
01:17:22,942 --> 01:17:25,775
l suppose you're right.
1211
01:17:27,062 --> 01:17:29,053
l'll tell you what, though.
1212
01:17:29,262 --> 01:17:34,734
ln a battle between a president's
demons and his better angels. . .
1213
01:17:34,942 --> 01:17:38,059
. . .for the first time in
a long while. . .
1214
01:17:38,262 --> 01:17:42,301
. . .l think we might just
have ourselves a fair fight.
1215
01:17:43,342 --> 01:17:45,731
Thank you, Toby.
1216
01:17:46,422 --> 01:17:48,253
Now, go away.
1217
01:17:59,582 --> 01:18:02,460
-Drop the spoon.
-l knew it was you.
1218
01:18:02,662 --> 01:18:05,495
-You look good!
-You look like death!
1219
01:18:05,702 --> 01:18:07,658
Thanks. l have a new barber.
1220
01:18:07,862 --> 01:18:12,299
-l heard you've been nutty today.
-Mind your own business.
1221
01:18:12,502 --> 01:18:15,972
-What classes you taking?
-Mind your own business.
1222
01:18:19,102 --> 01:18:24,222
-Charlie, you met Zoey Bartlet?
-lt's a pleasure, ma'am.
1223
01:18:24,862 --> 01:18:27,012
Let's take it back a moment.
1224
01:18:27,222 --> 01:18:30,339
This is a girl.
You don't call her ''ma'am. ''
1225
01:18:30,542 --> 01:18:33,102
-Beg your pardon. Did l call you--
-Zoey.
1226
01:18:33,302 --> 01:18:37,375
-l should call you Zoey?
-lf l can call you Charlie.
1227
01:18:37,582 --> 01:18:39,891
-The president--
-That's her father.
1228
01:18:40,102 --> 01:18:43,014
You're forbidden from adding
cumin to the chili.
1229
01:18:43,222 --> 01:18:45,292
Check to see if he's nearby.
1230
01:18:46,142 --> 01:18:48,337
l have certain instructions.
1231
01:18:48,542 --> 01:18:52,581
-You're fine.
-Taste this.
1232
01:18:52,782 --> 01:18:56,695
-Doesn't it need cumin?
-lt needs oregano.
1233
01:18:56,902 --> 01:18:58,415
Well, let's get to work.
1234
01:18:58,622 --> 01:19:00,692
See you guys.
1235
01:19:02,702 --> 01:19:05,341
Maybe the vending machines
fall on them. . .
1236
01:19:05,542 --> 01:19:08,534
. . .while they're
getting their change.
1237
01:19:08,742 --> 01:19:13,258
We can build schools
and protect wildlife at the same time.
1238
01:19:13,502 --> 01:19:17,461
-Pluie really got to you?
-He really was very sweet.
1239
01:19:17,662 --> 01:19:19,732
Josh, we were looking for you.
1240
01:19:20,982 --> 01:19:23,371
-Look at this.
-Look at what, sir?
1241
01:19:24,342 --> 01:19:26,856
Nothing makes me feel quite so good. . .
1242
01:19:27,062 --> 01:19:30,338
. . .as colleagues enjoying each other
outside work.
1243
01:19:30,662 --> 01:19:33,859
What were you guys
talking about?
1244
01:19:34,062 --> 01:19:36,371
We were talking about these women.
1245
01:19:36,582 --> 01:19:39,176
We can't get over these women.
1246
01:19:39,822 --> 01:19:44,816
C.J.'s like a '50s movie star.
So capable, loving and energetic.
1247
01:19:45,022 --> 01:19:49,334
Look at Mandy over there.
Going punch for punch with Toby. . .
1248
01:19:49,542 --> 01:19:52,898
. . .in a world that tells women
to sit down and shut up.
1249
01:19:53,102 --> 01:19:56,060
She's already won her battle
with the president.
1250
01:19:56,262 --> 01:19:59,299
But she's not done.
She wants Toby.
1251
01:19:59,502 --> 01:20:01,857
Mrs. Landingham.
1252
01:20:02,062 --> 01:20:05,054
Did you guys know
she lost two sons in Vietnam?
1253
01:20:05,262 --> 01:20:11,053
Why she serves her country is beyond
me, but she's not missed a day's work.
1254
01:20:11,262 --> 01:20:16,575
There's Cathy,
Donna, and Margaret. . . .
1255
01:20:16,782 --> 01:20:20,013
There's something that's
been bothering me.
1256
01:20:20,222 --> 01:20:24,010
-l know it's an inappropriate time.
-What's on your mind?
1257
01:20:24,222 --> 01:20:30,172
l serve the president,
and it's an unforgettable privilege.
1258
01:20:30,382 --> 01:20:32,612
l can't keep this.
1259
01:20:32,822 --> 01:20:35,859
lt's a white flag of surrender.
1260
01:20:36,062 --> 01:20:39,099
l wanna be a comfort
to my friends in tragedy. . .
1261
01:20:39,302 --> 01:20:41,611
. . .and celebrate with them in triumph.
1262
01:20:42,142 --> 01:20:47,421
For the times in between, l wanna
be able to look them in the eye.
1263
01:20:47,622 --> 01:20:51,581
l wanna be with my friends,
my family. . .
1264
01:20:51,782 --> 01:20:54,216
. . .and these women.
1265
01:21:01,662 --> 01:21:03,857
Excuse me.
1266
01:21:05,142 --> 01:21:08,339
Thank you.
Friends, please.
1267
01:21:08,582 --> 01:21:10,857
The chili's ready,
l hope you enjoy it.
1268
01:21:11,062 --> 01:21:13,781
Since l told you
you would enjoy it. . .
1269
01:21:13,982 --> 01:21:16,735
. . .l'm reasonably certain
that you will.
1270
01:21:18,422 --> 01:21:20,617
The first lady is in Pakistan.
1271
01:21:20,822 --> 01:21:23,700
l'm not entirely sure why,
but l've learned. . .
1272
01:21:23,902 --> 01:21:27,372
. . .it's a good idea not to
ask too many questions.
1273
01:21:27,582 --> 01:21:30,733
lt seldom leads to anything
but confusion.
1274
01:21:30,942 --> 01:21:35,493
l miss her very much, but l'm delighted
our daughter is here.
1275
01:21:35,822 --> 01:21:39,371
You know, she's starting Georgetown
in the spring.
1276
01:21:41,582 --> 01:21:45,336
This, prior to medical school
and a life of celibacy.
1277
01:21:45,542 --> 01:21:47,737
Yeah, right.
1278
01:21:47,942 --> 01:21:50,137
lt's an incredible adventure.
1279
01:21:50,342 --> 01:21:54,381
Four years full of people and
experiences you haven't dreamed of.
1280
01:21:54,582 --> 01:21:57,380
Allow me just one minute of business.
1281
01:21:57,582 --> 01:22:00,494
l hope by the time
our four years are done. . .
1282
01:22:00,702 --> 01:22:03,341
. . .we see to it
that anyone who chooses. . .
1283
01:22:03,542 --> 01:22:07,820
. . .can go to college,
regardless of their economic status.
1284
01:22:08,022 --> 01:22:09,660
Here, here.
1285
01:22:10,742 --> 01:22:16,021
l hear that today was another one of
Leo's ''big block of cheese'' days.
1286
01:22:16,222 --> 01:22:21,580
You all start out cynical, but there's
always one or two converts a day.
1287
01:22:21,782 --> 01:22:25,331
Today was no exception.
C.J. is gonna be up all night. . .
1288
01:22:25,542 --> 01:22:30,536
. . . .writing a position paper on the
necessity of wildlife protection.
1289
01:22:30,742 --> 01:22:34,894
C.J., l don't mind the cost
of this wolves-only highway.
1290
01:22:35,102 --> 01:22:36,581
lt's the segregation.
1291
01:22:36,782 --> 01:22:40,092
The ACLU will file a petition
on behalf of reindeer. . .
1292
01:22:40,302 --> 01:22:42,099
. . .and we're all screwed.
1293
01:22:42,302 --> 01:22:45,294
Sam Seaborn had a guy
who spotted a UFO today.
1294
01:22:45,502 --> 01:22:48,938
He's been thinking about it
ever since.
1295
01:22:49,142 --> 01:22:53,772
lt wasn't a ship from another planet,
just another time.
1296
01:22:53,982 --> 01:22:55,973
An abandoned Soviet satellite.
1297
01:22:56,182 --> 01:23:00,494
lts booster didn't fire
and it couldn't escape Earth's orbit.
1298
01:23:00,702 --> 01:23:05,571
A reminder of a time when two powerful
nations challenged each other. . .
1299
01:23:05,782 --> 01:23:09,377
. . .and then boldly raced
into outer space.
1300
01:23:09,582 --> 01:23:11,732
What will be the next challenge. . .
1301
01:23:12,582 --> 01:23:15,779
. . .that makes us go farther
and work harder?
1302
01:23:15,982 --> 01:23:18,655
When smallpox was eradicated. . .
1303
01:23:18,862 --> 01:23:23,652
. . .it was the greatest humanitarian
achievement of this century.
1304
01:23:23,862 --> 01:23:26,012
Surely we can do it again. . .
1305
01:23:26,222 --> 01:23:29,851
. . .as when our eyes
