00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:07,900
Previously on The West Wing:
3
00:00:08,100 --> 00:00:11,100
This man got in front of millions
of people and screwed his wife.
4
00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:12,600
I'm running again, Abbey.
5
00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:14,800
The FDA is signing off on RU-486.
6
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:17,000
You think he apologizes
and numbers go up?
7
00:00:17,200 --> 00:00:19,400
I think you brought me in
because they haven't.
8
00:00:19,700 --> 00:00:21,100
- What's Toby's problem?
- What?
9
00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:23,800
He's got a problem with me
and I'd like to know why.
10
00:00:24,100 --> 00:00:28,300
Justice Department needs $30 million
for its suit against tobacco companies.
11
00:00:28,700 --> 00:00:31,100
Now I want to turn the heat up
and issue a release.
12
00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:33,800
Leo, talk to me.
I know what you're thinking about.
13
00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:38,200
Would you say the president's situation
makes it harder for him to focus on...?
14
00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:40,900
He's relieved to focus on
something that matters.
15
00:00:41,100 --> 00:00:42,400
- Relieved?
- She was tired.
16
00:00:42,700 --> 00:00:44,500
- C.J. doesn't misspeak.
- She just did.
17
00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:46,500
Damn it!
18
00:00:50,100 --> 00:00:53,400
"We're more than a set of borders.
We're bounded by the reach of freedom.
19
00:00:53,700 --> 00:00:57,200
We have mastered every moment.
We have vanquished every foe.
20
00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:00,800
We are strong, we are prosperous,
we are at peace with the world.
21
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:04,200
We are, as we have ever been,
the envy of every civilization.
22
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:07,700
We are, as we have ever been,
the hope of all mankind.
23
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:10,700
But I am not satisfied.
Indeed, I am restless.
24
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,500
I come before you not to speak of
the America we have..."
25
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:15,800
- Excuse me, sir.
- Yeah?
26
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:19,300
- We're the envy of every civilization?
- Yeah.
27
00:01:20,500 --> 00:01:23,400
- Really?
- They don't vote in England, Toby.
28
00:01:23,700 --> 00:01:25,900
- They do, actually.
- He meant that they don't...
29
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:28,100
- We know what he meant.
- I'll change it, sir.
30
00:01:29,300 --> 00:01:31,300
Somebody stick some
pom-poms in his hand.
31
00:01:31,500 --> 00:01:33,600
"But I am not satisfied.
Indeed, I am restless.
32
00:01:33,900 --> 00:01:36,200
I come here not to speak of
the America we have...
33
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:40,100
...but of the better, stronger, more
prosperous America we can create."
34
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:41,800
- There's a snake.
- What kind?
35
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:45,600
I don't know and I don't wanna ask him.
Can somebody shoot it, please?
36
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:49,200
- Probably a garter snake.
- It's a garter snake, don't worry about it.
37
00:01:49,500 --> 00:01:52,600
"I seek re-election to the presidency,
not because of its glories...
38
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:54,200
...but its challenges."
39
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:56,800
- And I have a problem here.
- I wrote that.
40
00:01:57,100 --> 00:01:58,900
I'm happy for you."Its challenges"...
41
00:01:59,100 --> 00:02:02,700
...sounds like you're overwhelmed.
This is exactly the wrong time for that.
42
00:02:03,100 --> 00:02:06,200
No, it's exactly the right time
to raise the stakes of the election.
43
00:02:06,500 --> 00:02:08,100
- Why?
- If it's a day at the beach...
44
00:02:08,300 --> 00:02:10,100
...any bozo with a handshake can do it.
45
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:14,500
Sorry, America wants a happy warrior
to lead the country, not Dr. Kevorkian.
46
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:18,500
It's true, sir, America does not want
Dr. Kevorkian to lead the country.
47
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:20,300
We've got polling data on that.
48
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:23,500
- All right, we'll revisit it.
- The snake is looking at me now.
49
00:02:23,900 --> 00:02:27,300
"A candidate owes his campaign
no less than he owes his country:
50
00:02:27,700 --> 00:02:30,200
Everything he has,
everything he can give, all his..."
51
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:32,500
- Again, I'm sorry, sir.
- Yeah?
52
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:35,000
I'm not wild about your
campaign and country.
53
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:37,700
- No, that's okay.
- People don't hear that well.
54
00:02:37,900 --> 00:02:39,500
The people there hear fine.
55
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:43,600
He doesn't mean people don't hear well,
he means hear"that" well. I disagree.
56
00:02:43,900 --> 00:02:45,200
I see the snake now too.
57
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:47,700
You're entitled to declare
yourself the leader...
58
00:02:47,900 --> 00:02:50,100
...of the campaign and country
since you are.
59
00:02:50,500 --> 00:02:54,200
Except if it's him and not the voters,
it points the pundits toward the MS.
60
00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:56,600
I think the cat's out of the bag
on the MS.
61
00:02:56,900 --> 00:02:59,600
Does somebody here have MS
and they haven't said anything?
62
00:02:59,900 --> 00:03:01,600
Seriously, that's a pretty big snake.
63
00:03:01,900 --> 00:03:07,700
"I am not satisfied." Indeed, I am close
to taking my life with a wheat thresher.
64
00:03:08,100 --> 00:03:10,800
- Bruno?
- Yeah, listen up. I've been thinking.
65
00:03:11,300 --> 00:03:15,000
It might not be such a bad idea
for me to lock you all in here...
66
00:03:15,300 --> 00:03:17,400
...and set the place on fire.
67
00:03:17,900 --> 00:03:22,200
We have 48 hours before we kick off
this campaign. We will work hard...
68
00:03:22,500 --> 00:03:25,400
...we will work well,
and we will work together...
69
00:03:25,900 --> 00:03:27,500
...or so help me, Mother of God...
70
00:03:27,700 --> 00:03:31,600
...I will stick a pitchfork so far up your
asses you will, quite simply, be dead.
71
00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:41,600
"And so, with pride and purpose,
I hereby announce my candidacy...
72
00:03:41,900 --> 00:03:44,900
...for the presidency
of the United States."

Jed?
75
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:50,400
- I didn't see you there.
- Yeah.
76
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:52,800
- I didn't see you.
- What's going on?
77
00:04:53,100 --> 00:04:55,700
Peter thinks sanctions
are a waste of time, I agree.
78
00:04:56,100 --> 00:04:58,800
In about a half-hour, we're
buzzing the island with...
79
00:04:59,100 --> 00:05:02,200
...what they call an alpha-strike
formation to show Bazan... .
80
00:05:02,500 --> 00:05:04,100
Will it work?
81
00:05:05,100 --> 00:05:06,500
- Jed?
- Yeah?
82
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:08,900
I said, will it work?
83
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:13,200
Sorry, I said I don't know. We'll see.
84
00:05:13,500 --> 00:05:15,900
C.J. got beaten up pretty good
in the briefing room.
85
00:05:16,100 --> 00:05:17,600
Yeah, that was bound to happen.
86
00:05:17,700 --> 00:05:21,300
Maybe you wanna think about
sitting her down for a few days.
87
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:23,900
- Jed?
- Yeah?
88
00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:28,500
I said, maybe you want to think about
benching C.J. for a few days.
89
00:05:28,900 --> 00:05:32,200
- Yeah.
- At least on Haiti.
90
00:05:32,500 --> 00:05:33,800
Well, that's Leo's call.
91
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:37,200
Send in Nancy or Peter
or someone from State?
92
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:41,700
- That way the stories don't get mixed up.
- Yeah, that's Leo's call.
93
00:05:41,900 --> 00:05:44,600
Look, I'm sorry,
I can't get into our thing tonight.
94
00:05:44,900 --> 00:05:47,000
Two days ago,
you said you had a lot to say.
95
00:05:47,300 --> 00:05:50,000
I do, that's why I can't get into it.
I have to read.
96
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:52,300
That's all right.
97
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:54,600
All right, I'm going in the study.
98
00:05:55,300 --> 00:05:56,900
Okay.
99
00:05:57,700 --> 00:06:00,900
Abbey, you were lying down
when I came in, I didn't see you.
100
00:06:01,100 --> 00:06:02,900
I believe you.
101
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:20,100
- He has to sell the greatness of America.
- Why?
102
00:06:20,300 --> 00:06:22,400
It's an implicit argument
to stay the course.
103
00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:24,700
- We're selling the greatness.
- Not enough.
104
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:27,900
We're selling it in paragraphs
1, 2, 8, 16, 26 and 34.
105
00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:31,100
Listen, it's a simple equation:
Bartlet rules America...
106
00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:34,000
...America rocks, therefore Bartlet rocks.
107
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:36,000
-"America rocks"?
-"Bartlet rocks"?
108
00:06:36,300 --> 00:06:38,500
- Yes.
- He really doesn't that much.
109
00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:41,400
- Leo, can I see you for a second?
- Yeah.
110
00:06:44,100 --> 00:06:45,900
- RU-486.
- There's nothing we can do.
111
00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:48,600
The last thing we need
is to come out of the gate...
112
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:52,100
...waving a flag to the heartland,
saying,"We don't share your values."
113
00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:54,200
The president understands all that.
114
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:56,900
- And?
- That's the way it goes.
115
00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:00,800
The FDA's an independent agency.
They can announce when they want.
116
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:05,200
The FDA's a division of HHS and
technically, not an independent agency.
117
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:08,100
I can keep him away from this,
call the chief of staff.
118
00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:10,500
- I got him his job, they can wait...
- No.
119
00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:13,000
...two weeks to announce the drug,
not on Monday.
120
00:07:13,300 --> 00:07:16,100
- I can fix tobacco.
- Tobacco?
121
00:07:16,500 --> 00:07:19,000
No, I meant 486.
122
00:07:19,500 --> 00:07:21,800
Leave the FDA alone.
123
00:07:31,700 --> 00:07:33,200
Morning.
124
00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:35,400
- Hey, C.J.
- You just get in?
125
00:07:35,700 --> 00:07:37,900
- A few hours ago.
- Ellie and Zoey are here?
126
00:07:38,100 --> 00:07:41,500
Yeah. Liz will be here. They're going
for a hike if you wanna join them.
127
00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:44,800
No, I can't, but I did want to
talk to you about a photo-op.
128
00:07:45,100 --> 00:07:47,000
- Would you like some cider?
- No, I'm fine.
129
00:07:47,300 --> 00:07:49,300
We grow the apples
down the hill, it's good.
130
00:07:49,500 --> 00:07:51,200
Okay. So at any rate...
131
00:07:51,300 --> 00:07:52,600
- A photo-op.
- Yes.
132
00:07:52,900 --> 00:07:55,300
My husband and I together.
With the kids.
133
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:58,700
Because my husband and I
came to the house separately.
134
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:01,400
There were photos of him
getting on the plane alone.
135
00:08:01,900 --> 00:08:05,800
Ma'am, this is uncomfortable territory,
and obviously, I'd... .
136
00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:08,700
The press has sources that say
you and the president...
137
00:08:08,900 --> 00:08:10,400
- Do they have names?
- I'm sorry?
138
00:08:10,500 --> 00:08:11,900
- The sources.
- No, they're...
139
00:08:12,100 --> 00:08:13,600
Unnamed sources.
140
00:08:13,900 --> 00:08:16,700
C.J., unnamed sources make me crazy.
141
00:08:16,900 --> 00:08:20,600
Just one time, I'd like to see, instead of
"according to unnamed sources"...
142
00:08:20,900 --> 00:08:27,400
...I'd like to see"according to tweaky,
little ill-informed, chicken-ass wannabe..."
143
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:34,800
Don't ever come to me again
with unnamed sources, C.J.
144
00:08:35,100 --> 00:08:37,200
You don't get any cider.
145
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:39,300
Yes, ma'am.
146
00:08:46,100 --> 00:08:47,900
I spoke to the first lady before.
147
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:50,600
I thought it might not be
a bad idea...
148
00:08:50,900 --> 00:08:54,100
...if there were some opportunities
with them together at the house.
149
00:08:54,300 --> 00:08:56,600
- What was her reaction?
- Well, she denied me cider.
150
00:08:56,900 --> 00:08:58,900
- What else?
- I'll brief the Sunday papers...
151
00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:01,100
...on what they can expect
from the speech.
152
00:09:01,300 --> 00:09:03,700
- It's not written yet.
- I'm just giving highlights.
153
00:09:03,900 --> 00:09:06,100
- What highlights?
- I'm making them up.
154
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:08,300
I thought maybe you could speak to her.
155
00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:09,900
- Who?
- The first lady.
156
00:09:10,100 --> 00:09:12,200
Every paper had a picture
on the front page...
157
00:09:12,500 --> 00:09:14,400
...of the president going home
by himself.
158
00:09:14,700 --> 00:09:16,700
- It's a Saturday paper.
- There are questions...
159
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:20,200
We're two private men, C.J.,
we don't talk about our marriages.
160
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:22,300
What do you want from me?
161
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:27,500
I'm not wild about the fact
you told Toby what we discussed.
162
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:30,800
He's the communications director,
you don't think he should know?
163
00:09:31,100 --> 00:09:36,000
When I think it's time, I will tell anyone
working for me anything I damn please.
164
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:41,100
You know what, C.J.?
Stop being pissed at me about Haiti.
165
00:09:45,300 --> 00:09:47,200
Yeah, okay.
166
00:09:50,900 --> 00:09:53,700
-It's a surrender.
-It's not a surrender if he has demands.
167
00:09:54,100 --> 00:09:56,700
-It's as close as we come these days.
-What does he want?
168
00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:00,600
Ten million dollars, U.S.,
a private plane...
169
00:10:00,900 --> 00:10:03,700
... and a guarantee he won 't
be prosecuted for war crimes.
170
00:10:03,900 --> 00:10:05,200
What else?
171
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:07,600
Asylum for himself
and 60 of his family members.
172
00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:09,100
- Where?
- Here.
173
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:10,700
That's a bit of a dilemma.
174
00:10:10,900 --> 00:10:14,400
Does anybody have room at their place
for Bazan and 60 of his relatives?
175
00:10:14,700 --> 00:10:17,500
Any amnesty conditions could be
in violation of Hague treaties.
176
00:10:17,900 --> 00:10:19,200
Yeah.
177
00:10:19,300 --> 00:10:23,400
Do we want to say anyone can stage a
coup and walk away if it doesn't work?
178
00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:26,500
And with 10 million dollars
and a private plane?
179
00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:29,000
A shootout in the palace
is the worst outcome...
180
00:10:29,300 --> 00:10:32,900
...Bazan's full surrender is the best,
and that's what we've got on the table.
181
00:10:33,300 --> 00:10:37,100
I want to end this peacefully, right now.
Nancy, what do you think of Venezuela?
182
00:10:37,500 --> 00:10:41,100
Venezuela wants to be a resource for
supplying Strategic Petroleum Reserves.
183
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:44,100
Tell them I'll give the SPR
strong consideration.
184
00:10:44,300 --> 00:10:46,600
Mike, have the Canadians
get a message through.
185
00:10:46,900 --> 00:10:50,400
We'll unfreeze his U.S. accounts,
but he can't remove money from Haiti.
186
00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:53,900
Only his wife, his children
and his parents can seek asylum.
187
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:56,300
If he tries to go back,
he'll be under arrest.
188
00:10:56,600 --> 00:11:00,600
He can screw a private plane, he'll fly on
a C-9 from Port-au-Prince to Caracas...
189
00:11:00,900 --> 00:11:04,000
...and if he's very good, we won't
shoot him in the head on the way.
190
00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:06,200
- Tell me when it's done.
- Yes, sir.
191
00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:08,300
- Thank you, Mr. President.
- Thank you, sir.
192
00:11:11,900 --> 00:11:13,300
- Nancy?
- Yeah?
193
00:11:13,500 --> 00:11:15,500
Let me talk to you a second.
194
00:11:21,100 --> 00:11:24,600
When this is a done deal, I want you
to stick around and brief the press.
195
00:11:24,900 --> 00:11:26,900
- She made a mistake.
- I'm not punishing her.
196
00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:28,800
- She made...
- I'm not punishing her.
197
00:11:29,100 --> 00:11:31,200
You're not the face
of this administration...
198
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:35,300
...you had no part of the MS thing, and
you won't be asked questions about it.
199
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:37,700
I don't feel right about this.
200
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:39,700
I don't care.
201
00:11:47,700 --> 00:11:50,300
- Can I talk to him?
- He's on his way up from the Sit Room.
202
00:11:50,700 --> 00:11:52,000
Good news about Haiti.
203
00:11:52,100 --> 00:11:56,900
We should've gone in with four tank
divisions and turned it into a casino.
204
00:11:57,200 --> 00:12:00,100
- Manifest destiny.
- Bet your ass.
205
00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:04,100
- You got a second?
- Yeah.
206
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:08,400
- So I wanted to apologize about before.
- Don't worry about it.
207
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:11,600
- You know what I'm talking about, right?
- Yeah.
208
00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:14,800
So I wanted to make you
aware of something.
209
00:12:15,100 --> 00:12:18,300
I looked through the transcript
a couple times and he never apologized.
210
00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:20,500
- What do you mean?
- In the interview.
211
00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:22,600
It's something we'll get
hung with later.
212
00:12:22,900 --> 00:12:26,100
Wait a few weeks, see what happens
with numbers and take another look.
213
00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:27,700
- Yeah.
- Anything else?
214
00:12:27,900 --> 00:12:30,600
- He wanted a private plane?
- You believe it?
215
00:12:33,100 --> 00:12:35,800
State Department suggests
we praise the French government...
216
00:12:36,100 --> 00:12:38,100
...for their help in resolving this matter.
217
00:12:38,300 --> 00:12:40,400
I would, but I'm worried
they'd surrender.
218
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:42,300
You did well, Mr. President.
219
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:45,400
- When do you think C.J. can brief?
- Nancy's gonna brief.
220
00:12:45,700 --> 00:12:48,300
- Yeah?
- Don't worry about it.
221
00:12:48,500 --> 00:12:50,200
You did well.
222
00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:10,800
We haven't picked up any ground in
lowa, Kansas, Arkansas and Illinois.
223
00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:12,500
It's only been a week.
224
00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:15,700
Yeah, but we struck the agricultural
trade deal with Argentina.
225
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:17,500
Farm country ought to love that.
226
00:13:17,700 --> 00:13:19,700
Well, that story got a little drowned out.
227
00:13:20,500 --> 00:13:22,000
Yes, it did.
228
00:13:22,300 --> 00:13:26,700
I could stand on the Sears Tower with
a Stratocaster, and it'd be drowned out.
229
00:13:27,100 --> 00:13:28,700
- I'm not assigning blame.
- Really?
230
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:30,700
Yes. We need help.
231
00:13:30,900 --> 00:13:33,500
- I'm bringing in Bruno Gianelli.
- It's too early for him.
232
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:36,900
- No.
- Toby, Sam and Josh aren't gonna like it.
233
00:13:38,100 --> 00:13:40,300
They'll have to live with it.
234
00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:52,400
"I say to you today, 'I love this country. '
235
00:13:52,700 --> 00:13:56,400
And I will make sure our military
continues to be the best-trained...
236
00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,500
...best-equipped, best-led
fighting force in the world."
237
00:13:59,900 --> 00:14:01,600
- Oh, God.
- I think Sam wants this one.
238
00:14:01,700 --> 00:14:04,500
If you wanna substitute testosterone
for foreign policy...
239
00:14:04,900 --> 00:14:07,900
...have the president challenge
the crowd to an arm wrestle.
240
00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:09,800
The foreign-policy section was long.
241
00:14:10,100 --> 00:14:12,100
And there are no votes in foreign policy.
242
00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:15,800
It's 98 percent of the world population
and three-quarters of the job.
243
00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:18,900
That thinking makes us
the envy of every civilization.
244
00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:21,400
- Scrap this.
- I have a problem here.
245
00:14:21,500 --> 00:14:22,800
Where?
246
00:14:23,100 --> 00:14:27,200
"It isn't about the disease God gave me,
but the chances God gave our country."
247
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:30,000
- You're going back to what failed.
- What's that?
248
00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:31,500
All MS, all the time.
249
00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:33,500
Damage control needed to be done.
250
00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:36,900
You couldn't stop educating the public.
Nothing makes you happier.
251
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:40,200
A month ago, 74 percent of them
thought MS was fatal.
252
00:14:40,500 --> 00:14:43,800
And every time you told them it wasn't,
there was a story about MS!
253
00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:47,100
- Just change the subject!
- Why the hell didn't I think of that?
254
00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:50,300
I don't know, Toby, but if you had,
I probably wouldn't be here!
255
00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:03,800
- Hello.
- Yes?
256
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:06,100
I'm Bruno Gianelli.
257
00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:08,900
Yes?
258
00:15:09,500 --> 00:15:11,400
I have an appointment.
259
00:15:22,300 --> 00:15:24,200
Who's Bruno Gianelli?
260
00:15:24,500 --> 00:15:26,500
- A strategist.
- Really?
261
00:15:26,700 --> 00:15:29,400
He got five senators elected,
three governors.
262
00:15:29,700 --> 00:15:33,200
He got Hacket elected where they
haven't elected a Democrat in 46 years.
263
00:15:33,500 --> 00:15:35,700
He got the prime minister
of Israel elected.
264
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:38,600
And it's entirely possible
he's never voted in his life.
265
00:15:38,900 --> 00:15:40,100
He's here.
266
00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:42,500
- Why didn't you send him in?
- No appointment.
267
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:44,700
- I did it.
- You did it yourself?
268
00:15:45,300 --> 00:15:47,800
- Yes.
- And you're not supposed to do that.
269
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:49,700
Bruno.
270
00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:56,100
You guys can find
more ways to blow it... .
271
00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:59,600
- We might be running out.
- No, I don't think so.
272
00:16:00,100 --> 00:16:02,100
Why didn't you call
before the announcement?
273
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:04,800
- What would you have done?
- Tell him not to make it.
274
00:16:05,100 --> 00:16:08,500
- That'd be concealing the truth.
- Oh, would it, now?
275
00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:10,400
Can you help us?
276
00:16:12,300 --> 00:16:13,700
I need to see your internals.
277
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:16,200
Joey Lucas has been polling
every day for months.
278
00:16:16,500 --> 00:16:18,500
- The girl?
- Yeah.
279
00:16:19,700 --> 00:16:21,700
Worked with her in California,
she's good.
280
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:24,300
What do you want?
281
00:16:24,700 --> 00:16:28,900
Fifteen percent of the ad buys.
You're gonna say 10.
282
00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:31,100
So why don't we just say 13.
283
00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:35,500
- Why don't we say 12.
- Why don't we say 13.
284
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:39,400
I want hiring and firing prerogatives
in my department.
285
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:42,700
For starters, I'm bringing in
Doug Wegland and Connie Tate.
286
00:16:43,100 --> 00:16:45,300
A room at the Hay-Adams
and a car and a driver.
287
00:16:45,700 --> 00:16:46,900
Fine.
288
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:51,000
- And unfettered access to the president.
- No.
289
00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:53,400
- I need it.
- Can't have it.
290
00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:57,400
Leo, the only races I've ever lost are
ones where the candidate didn't listen...
291
00:16:57,700 --> 00:16:59,500
...or the advice didn't get through.
292
00:17:00,100 --> 00:17:02,400
- That isn't gonna happen this time.
- Can't do it.
293
00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:05,000
This is ego, you know it as well as I do.
294
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:09,600
I take this request to the president,
tell him it's a deal-breaker, he'll say yes.
295
00:17:09,900 --> 00:17:12,200
Knock yourself out. Margaret?
296
00:17:13,900 --> 00:17:16,500
Would you take Mr. Gianelli
into the Oval Office, please?
297
00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:18,700
- Sure.
- Are you playing with me?
298
00:17:20,300 --> 00:17:21,900
Mr. Gianelli, would you follow me?
299
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:24,700
Sure thing.
300
00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:34,800
- Bruno.
- Good morning, Mr. President.
301
00:17:35,100 --> 00:17:37,100
I understand you're gonna
be working with us.
302
00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:39,200
Obviously, I'm pleased to be approached.
303
00:17:39,500 --> 00:17:42,900
- I believe there is a great deal I can do.
- You have one or two demands.
304
00:17:43,900 --> 00:17:45,100
Yes, sir.
305
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:51,000
You want 12 percent of the ad buys.
306
00:17:54,500 --> 00:17:56,100
Okay.
307
00:17:56,300 --> 00:17:57,700
Twelve. And...
308
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:00,200
A room, a car and a driver,
that's no problem.
309
00:18:00,500 --> 00:18:01,800
Well, thank you, sir.
310
00:18:02,100 --> 00:18:04,500
- I'll also need unfettered access to you.
- No.
311
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:07,900
- Sir...
- I'm sorry, Bruno, Leo runs the show.
312
00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:11,200
- Respectfully, sir...
- It's a deal-breaker.
313
00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:19,300
Okay.
314
00:18:21,300 --> 00:18:24,100
Anyone else I have to
field things through?
315
00:18:27,900 --> 00:18:30,600
I was sorry to hear about
Dolores Landingham.
316
00:18:33,100 --> 00:18:34,700
Can you help us out?
317
00:18:35,700 --> 00:18:37,300
Yes, sir.
318
00:18:42,500 --> 00:18:45,900
Do I need to explain rules on making
appointments again? Are you confused?
319
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:49,300
- Get out.
- I'll jot them down.
320
00:18:51,500 --> 00:18:53,000
How'd it go?
321
00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:55,900
- Shut up.
- What's first?
322
00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:58,000
- We get together in a room.
- After that?
323
00:18:58,300 --> 00:19:00,900
- An event.
- How's two weeks from Monday?
324
00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:03,000
- Is that the soonest we can do it?
- Yeah.
325
00:19:03,300 --> 00:19:06,900
We'll scout locations in New Hampshire.
Maybe a high school.
326
00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:34,100
- Sam.
- Yeah?
327
00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:38,100
"Columbia, Gem of the Ocean"?
Is he christening a minesweeper?
328
00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:41,100
Columbia High School marching band
gets to play their song.
329
00:19:41,500 --> 00:19:43,100
We had to negotiate with the band?
330
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:46,100
They'll be live on four networks.
They'll play what we want.
331
00:19:46,500 --> 00:19:48,100
- Bruno!
- Hey. How you doing?
332
00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:52,300
Whose throat do I shove these down,
whose skull do I crack with this sign?
333
00:19:52,700 --> 00:19:54,900
-"Bartlet for president."
- We'll get rid of them.
334
00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:58,400
I was there when he won. I saw him
get sworn in. I rode in the limo.
335
00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:00,100
Write me a speech, would you?
336
00:20:00,300 --> 00:20:02,600
One that doesn't make me think
I'm sitting shiva...
337
00:20:02,900 --> 00:20:04,400
...black curtains on the mirrors.
338
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:13,900
We'll use this as the greenroom.
339
00:20:14,100 --> 00:20:16,000
He can walk out the door
and up on stage.
340
00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:18,300
What's this room usually used for?
341
00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:21,600
I don't know. Desks, a blackboard.
Could be some kind of classroom.
342
00:20:21,900 --> 00:20:23,600
- C.J.
- Yeah?
343
00:20:23,900 --> 00:20:26,700
- What's going on?
- What do you mean?
344
00:20:27,700 --> 00:20:29,000
- Nothing.
- You sure?
345
00:20:29,100 --> 00:20:32,600
Yeah. What's going on with RU-486?
346
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:35,700
Leo won't let me wave off the FDA.
347
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:37,900
It's against the law.
348
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:42,100
I'm not talking about sticking up
a fruit stand.
349
00:20:42,500 --> 00:20:46,000
It's a phone call. A favor from a friend.
350
00:20:46,300 --> 00:20:50,500
I know the chief of staff for
the subcommittee, I got him his job.
351
00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:52,800
You mean the FDA?
352
00:20:55,500 --> 00:20:58,100
This is the second time
this weekend I've done that.
353
00:20:58,300 --> 00:21:00,100
Hey, see this?
354
00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:03,900
This is why I didn't want
to do an announcement.
355
00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:09,200
- We're taking care of it.
- No, I'm taking care of it.
356
00:21:10,500 --> 00:21:14,900
I want to say for the 18th time that
we shouldn't do an announcement event.
357
00:21:15,300 --> 00:21:18,200
If he's gonna run for re-election,
he's gotta announce it.
358
00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:19,700
He did that two weeks ago.
359
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:22,600
He's not gaining enough ground,
which means he's bleeding.
360
00:21:22,900 --> 00:21:26,200
If we put him up like any candidate,
we trade away our one big advantage.
361
00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:28,400
- What?
- He's the president already.
362
00:21:28,700 --> 00:21:31,900
Signing executive orders
and decorating the tree isn't gonna do it.
363
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:35,500
Fellas, I'm getting old over here.
This subject was closed on Tuesday.
364
00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:38,800
He's gotta stand up, he's gotta declare,
and he's gotta apologize.
365
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:40,500
- He won't apologize.
- Why?
366
00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:43,700
- For what?
- For your campaign perpetrating a fraud.
367
00:21:45,900 --> 00:21:50,000
I'm from Oregon. We like to see a man
say he's sorry. Where are you from?
368
00:21:50,300 --> 00:21:52,300
Me? I'm from the United States
of Suck My...
369
00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:54,100
All right.
370
00:21:59,300 --> 00:22:01,300
Let's take lunch.
371
00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:04,200
Republicans talk about
how arrogant you guys are.
372
00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:06,900
I thought it was the reaction
to not getting the girl.
373
00:22:07,500 --> 00:22:09,700
I can't believe how much
they low-balled it.
374
00:22:09,900 --> 00:22:11,500
Josh. Wait up.
375
00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:14,500
Let me walk you to your office.
376
00:22:14,700 --> 00:22:16,100
Sure.
377
00:22:18,900 --> 00:22:20,500
- You know, he had a point.
- Who?
378
00:22:20,700 --> 00:22:22,700
- Doug.
- That we're arrogant?
379
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:26,400
I guess that means Doug won't be
coming to my sweet-16, then.
380
00:22:26,700 --> 00:22:29,300
- You sent them the press release?
- What press release?
381
00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:33,000
- Subcommittee. About tobacco.
- Yes.
382
00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:34,600
Well, that was stupid.
383
00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:36,200
- You think?
- I know.
384
00:22:36,300 --> 00:22:38,800
I got two years as legislative director
in the House...
385
00:22:39,100 --> 00:22:40,900
...two years as Senate floor director...
386
00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:44,100
...and 30 months as deputy chief
of staff, what do you got?
387
00:22:44,500 --> 00:22:46,600
Kalmbach's a fat-ass Rotarian gasbag.
388
00:22:46,900 --> 00:22:50,900
I knew once I sent it, he'd raise the
profile and give us the press we needed.
389
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:53,600
Kalmbach is vulnerable in his home state.
390
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:57,600
He's got an influx of tech and clean
industries along his Route 9 corridor...
391
00:22:57,900 --> 00:23:01,500
...and the suburban voters with it,
parents who don't want kids smoking.
392
00:23:01,900 --> 00:23:04,000
We got the money, Bruno.
393
00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:08,900
You don't want the money,
you want the issue.
394
00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:13,800
You should've waited until fall when the
bell rings, then we hammer them with it.
395
00:23:14,300 --> 00:23:17,300
And Kalmbach, Ross, O'Rourke, Stevens,
whoever gets nominated...
396
00:23:17,500 --> 00:23:20,500
...has it hanging around their necks,
they're nicotine pushers.
397
00:23:20,900 --> 00:23:22,100
Plus, you get the money.
398
00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:28,100
The sooner you get I know what
I'm talking about and I'm on your side...
399
00:23:28,500 --> 00:23:30,800
...the sooner your world gets better.
400
00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:32,900
Of course you got the money.
401
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:36,400
I'm amazed he didn't send it to you
with candy and a stripper.
402
00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:42,600
Pennsylvania, Michigan, Ohio.
403
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:47,000
Three swing states you could've
brought over with that.
404
00:23:49,500 --> 00:23:51,400
That's an election.
405
00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:31,700
You still get nervous talking to crowds?
406
00:24:31,900 --> 00:24:36,300
I've never been nervous talking in front
of big crowds. It's talking to one person.
407
00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:40,300
I didn't know she was gonna be here.
408
00:24:47,500 --> 00:24:50,700
- I didn't know you were gonna be here.
- I'm introducing you.
409
00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:54,200
- I thought Leyland was.
- C.J. thought it would be good...
410
00:24:54,500 --> 00:24:55,700
- Okay.
- I can tell them...
411
00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:58,200
- No, I think it's a good idea.
- Okay.
412
00:25:00,500 --> 00:25:02,800
You need to reach out to the staff.
413
00:25:03,300 --> 00:25:05,500
Once you do that, they'll feel better.
414
00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:07,900
And then so will you.
415
00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:10,600
I'm going back to the house.
416
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:17,200
What are you reading?
417
00:25:17,900 --> 00:25:19,900
I don't know enough about agriculture.
418
00:25:20,100 --> 00:25:23,000
I wouldn't worry about it.
Agriculture isn't really your field.
419
00:25:23,300 --> 00:25:29,700
Agriculture is responsible for one in five
American jobs, so it is a bit my field.
420
00:25:30,100 --> 00:25:33,500
Fifteen percent of the world's cotton,
25 percent of the world's beef...
421
00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:36,700
...and 50 percent of the world's
soybeans are grown in my field.
422
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:40,600
Farmers pay taxes in my field,
their kids go to school in my field...
423
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:44,600
...they go to jail in my field. From time
to time, they go to war in my field.
424
00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:47,800
If I say,"It's not my field,"
I'm not saying something...
425
00:25:48,100 --> 00:25:49,600
...I'm trying to learn so I can.
426
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:52,400
- Why won't you talk to me?
- Why aren't you with me?
427
00:25:52,700 --> 00:25:54,900
- How do you know I'm not?
- You're not.
428
00:25:56,300 --> 00:25:59,600
- You're pissed at me?
- I'm trying to read here.
429
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:02,500
You're pissed, I don't believe it.
I don't believe you.
430
00:26:02,700 --> 00:26:04,500
I don't believe you.
431
00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:06,600
You go from"I've got a lot to say"...
432
00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:10,200
...to"I can't say it right now,
because I've got so much to say"...
433
00:26:10,500 --> 00:26:16,000
...to"I gotta read about agriculture"
and"You're not with me and go to hell."
434
00:26:16,500 --> 00:26:18,100
That's an extraordinary evolution.
435
00:26:18,300 --> 00:26:20,300
Can I go a week without
explaining myself?
436
00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:24,200
You can go as long as you want without
explaining yourself, read your book.
437
00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:28,200
- Sit down, we'll talk about it now.
- I'm not in the mood, jackass.
438
00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:32,700
Is there any way to change your mind?
Because I really had my heart set on it.
439
00:26:34,700 --> 00:26:36,000
Go to hell.
440
00:26:53,300 --> 00:26:55,000
You feel all right?
441
00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:56,500
Yeah.
442
00:26:57,500 --> 00:26:59,700
C.J. wants her to introduce me?
443
00:26:59,900 --> 00:27:01,900
Yeah, I thought it was a good idea too.
444
00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:05,700
I wouldn't mind a little... . You know.
445
00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:11,100
There's gonna be a big crowd
here tomorrow.
446
00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:14,000
Well, that's your kind of crowd.
447
00:27:17,500 --> 00:27:20,200
- I need to finish the speech.
- Yeah.
448
00:27:46,100 --> 00:27:47,700
What are you doing?
449
00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:49,400
What are you doing?
450
00:27:49,700 --> 00:27:51,200
- I'm...
- Going over the transcript?
451
00:27:52,300 --> 00:27:54,100
He needs to apologize.
452
00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:57,000
- Don't worry about it.
- He lied.
453
00:27:57,500 --> 00:28:00,800
He didn't lie. It's what your people call
a"sin of omission."
454
00:28:01,300 --> 00:28:05,100
I'm not Catholic. It's what everybody
calls a sin of omission. Bartlet lied to us.
455
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:08,300
President Bartlet, Sam, come on.
456
00:28:08,700 --> 00:28:13,200
Did you know many multiple sclerosis
advocates actually instruct victims...
457
00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:16,800
...to hide the illness because
it's so misunderstood?
458
00:28:17,100 --> 00:28:19,600
You think they advise
presidential candidates to do that?
459
00:28:19,900 --> 00:28:21,300
I don't.
460
00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:26,700
- That night he told you...
- Yeah.
461
00:28:26,900 --> 00:28:29,400
- Didn't you feel like...?
- I went crazy.
462
00:28:29,700 --> 00:28:32,200
I whaled on him in the Oval Office.
463
00:28:32,500 --> 00:28:35,500
- None of us had the chance to do that.
- I know.
464
00:28:35,900 --> 00:28:37,100
We could've gotten it done.
465
00:28:37,300 --> 00:28:39,900
If he had just told us,
this would've been a different...
466
00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:41,600
Yeah.
467
00:28:42,300 --> 00:28:43,700
Go home.
468
00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:45,900
All right.
469
00:28:57,800 --> 00:28:59,200
Hey.
470
00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:01,300
- Hey.
- What are you doing?
471
00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:03,900
- Talking to myself.
- I'll join you.
472
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:05,800
Feel free.
473
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:13,100
I thought the speech was locked,
but they're at the house, arguing.
474
00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:15,500
It's not locked till
the president says so.
475
00:29:18,700 --> 00:29:21,000
I was out trying to find a Starbucks.
476
00:29:21,500 --> 00:29:25,300
A guy in a gas station said,"Around
here, people don't pay $4 for coffee."
477
00:29:25,700 --> 00:29:27,800
New Hampshire: Live Free or Cheap.
478
00:29:29,500 --> 00:29:31,600
Doug means well, you know,
and he's smart.
479
00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:36,900
It seems to me, your job is to wait
until Doug leaves the room, then say:
480
00:29:37,300 --> 00:29:39,500
"What Doug really meant was... ."
481
00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:41,400
How much do they pay you for that?
482
00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:44,500
Sometimes it's my job to say it
when he's in the room.
483
00:29:44,900 --> 00:29:46,000
Yeah.
484
00:29:46,500 --> 00:29:50,000
We're making a mistake
not including an apology.
485
00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:53,400
- Is this what you mean or Doug means?
- Both.
486
00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:56,100
- It's not gonna happen.
- Why not?
487
00:29:56,300 --> 00:29:59,100
Because Jed Bartlet's Jed Bartlet
and that's the way it goes.
488
00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:02,300
That's what you're saying and it
makes sense, but you know what?
489
00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:05,400
You want him to apologize
and not just for political reasons.
490
00:30:07,300 --> 00:30:09,700
I haven't really thought
that much about it.
491
00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:13,200
There's been a lot going on and I haven't
really thought much about it.
492
00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:15,600
You were with him at the beginning.
493
00:30:15,900 --> 00:30:18,800
You got him elected.
You work for Bartlet 18 hours a day.
494
00:30:19,100 --> 00:30:20,300
- You never felt...?
- Connie.
495
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:24,000
Please, it's President Bartlet.
496
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:27,500
Okay?
497
00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:30,000
Yeah.
498
00:30:30,700 --> 00:30:32,100
I should get back to the hotel.
499
00:30:32,300 --> 00:30:33,600
We have to mention values.
500
00:30:33,900 --> 00:30:36,300
If we don't, we're gonna spend
the next 15 months...
501
00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:39,000
...trying to convince people
we did mention values.
502
00:30:39,300 --> 00:30:42,400
"My values are New Hampshire's values:
hard work and responsibility.
503
00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:44,500
Strong families and communities.
504
00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:46,800
Boundless faith in
an ideal of self-reliance.
505
00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:49,100
And poor people can go
screw themselves."
506
00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:52,600
My point is, for 30 years, Democrats
have been labeled tax-and-spend...
507
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:55,700
...as if they don't believe in getting up
and going to work.
508
00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:59,200
- That's why we have to say it.
- Then nobody's gonna understand it.
509
00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:02,400
Which is why I wanted to
cut the three paragraphs about...
510
00:31:02,700 --> 00:31:04,400
Do you want to solve problems...
511
00:31:04,700 --> 00:31:07,900
...or are you helping us run for grand
marshal of the Rose Bowl Parade?
512
00:31:08,300 --> 00:31:10,000
- Look...
- I'm stretching my legs.
513
00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:20,500
Yeah?
514
00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:25,900
Okay.
515
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:43,900
Is that something you run for?
516
00:31:46,700 --> 00:31:49,000
The Rose Bowl Parade.
517
00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:52,200
Don't you just get picked?
518
00:31:54,100 --> 00:31:55,900
I don't... .
519
00:31:57,200 --> 00:31:58,800
I don't know.
520
00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:05,200
You guys are so pissed at him
you don't even know it.
521
00:32:07,100 --> 00:32:09,600
You're more pissed at him
than the press is.
522
00:32:09,900 --> 00:32:11,900
You're more pissed at him
than the party is.
523
00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:15,800
You're so pissed at him,
you're pissed at me.
524
00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:19,400
If he hadn't lied, you could've run
the campaign you wanted to...
525
00:32:19,700 --> 00:32:24,300
...instead of lots of people coming in and
teaching you how not to bother anybody.
526
00:32:27,700 --> 00:32:31,300
I never drank the Kool-Aid, Toby.
I came to win.
527
00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:35,200
And you're so pissed at him, you can't
even admit that for the last two weeks...
528
00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:38,600
...you've gone to sleep at night
thanking God that I did.
529
00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:43,100
Yeah?
530
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:51,300
Bruno just got off with Leo.
531
00:32:51,700 --> 00:32:53,700
The speech is locked.
532
00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:15,100
Whitley left in the first van.
He's there already.
533
00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:17,900
So somebody sit with The Boston Globe.
534
00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:20,400
Donna, where's Josh?
535
00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:22,400
I'll get him.
536
00:33:33,500 --> 00:33:34,800
Come in.
537
00:33:34,900 --> 00:33:36,900
- You're supposed to be downstairs.
- Yeah.
538
00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:39,600
- You're not ready?
- We're blowing this RU-486 thing.
539
00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:41,500
You gotta get in the shower.
540
00:33:41,700 --> 00:33:45,200
It'll look like we're starting the campaign
by pandering to women's groups.
541
00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:48,700
No question, most voters are pro-choice,
but the ones that aren't...
542
00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:51,700
...are gonna devote their lives
and money to beating you.
543
00:33:51,900 --> 00:33:54,800
"Guns don't kill people, Bartlet does."
544
00:33:55,100 --> 00:33:59,800
It'll look like we screwed up the timing,
so the press will write about process...
545
00:34:00,100 --> 00:34:03,400
...not issues, and getting political
reporters to write about issues...
546
00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:07,400
...is like getting kids to eat vegetables.
- You gotta shave.
547
00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:10,000
Don't you wanna know
how it's like getting kid...?
548
00:34:10,300 --> 00:34:11,500
Shave and shower.
549
00:34:11,900 --> 00:34:14,100
It helps if there's nothing else
on their plate.
550
00:34:14,500 --> 00:34:16,900
- You couldn't sleep?
- I know I could stop this thing.
551
00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:19,400
One phone call.
The president's not even involved.
552
00:34:19,700 --> 00:34:22,200
"Could you do us a favor?
Could you hold off two weeks?
553
00:34:22,500 --> 00:34:25,200
We love your drug, but we don't
want it in our news cycle."
554
00:34:25,500 --> 00:34:27,900
- I could've picked up the phone... .
- Josh?
555
00:34:28,200 --> 00:34:29,700
God!
556
00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:33,100
What's this about?
557
00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:40,500
I blew the tobacco thing.
558
00:34:43,300 --> 00:34:46,000
That could've helped us. That was... .
559
00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:53,300
It's gonna be a very close election.
560
00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:58,000
I gotta take a shower.
561
00:35:05,300 --> 00:35:07,800
- Good morning.
- You can go on up.
562
00:35:26,300 --> 00:35:28,500
- Mr. President?
- Come in.
563
00:35:28,700 --> 00:35:30,500
- I was told you wanted to see me.
- Yeah.
564
00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:34,700
Don't be a marriage counselor,
it pisses me off, okay?
565
00:35:35,500 --> 00:35:37,600
- I'm sorry?
- You know what I'm talking about.
566
00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:39,800
That part of my life
doesn't belong to you.
567
00:35:40,100 --> 00:35:42,700
I simply put together what I thought
was the best event.
568
00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:46,200
- The first lady is an excellent speaker...
- All right. That's all.
569
00:35:50,500 --> 00:35:54,000
I think if you get a bump in the polls
after today's speech, as we expect...
570
00:35:54,300 --> 00:35:55,900
...it'd be good for me to resign.
571
00:35:57,100 --> 00:35:58,500
Yeah?
572
00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:03,200
- To leave earlier would be strategically...
- Yeah. Okay.
573
00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:06,300
- The press is...
- That's nonsense to me and I don't care.
574
00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:11,300
For all the jobs we've created, single
mothers work two at minimum wage.
575
00:36:11,700 --> 00:36:14,500
There are school districts
where less than half graduate.
576
00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:18,500
And a kid born in Harlem is more likely
to go to prison than a four-year college.
577
00:36:18,900 --> 00:36:20,600
They're bringing guns to school!
578
00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:24,300
Don't you dare lecture me, sir,
don't you dare do it!
579
00:36:43,300 --> 00:36:46,000
I was never supposed to win.
580
00:36:47,300 --> 00:36:50,300
I got in it polling in the single digits.
581
00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:51,900
Hoynes had it locked up.
582
00:36:52,100 --> 00:36:55,400
I got in it to give some speeches
and keep him honest.
583
00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:00,700
Then you guys came along...
584
00:37:00,900 --> 00:37:04,500
...and all of a sudden,
I got 22 percent in lowa and then...
585
00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:08,500
...South Carolina and Michigan.
And then Illinois.
586
00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:15,700
It was a mistake benching you
for that last press conference.
587
00:37:18,800 --> 00:37:21,000
Excuse me. C.J., they need you.
588
00:37:30,700 --> 00:37:32,500
I need you too.
589
00:37:36,700 --> 00:37:38,800
Thank you, Mr. President.
590
00:38:07,100 --> 00:38:10,100
Did you know that hardly any of
the guys who landed on the moon...
591
00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:14,300
...are married to the same people they
were married to before they went there?
592
00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:16,700
What?
593
00:38:17,300 --> 00:38:21,100
I'm just saying it could be worse.
I could've been an astronaut.
594
00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:26,200
- You could not have been an astronaut.
- I'd have been a great astronaut.
595
00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:29,500
You're afraid of heights, speed, fire
and small places.
596
00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:32,400
I'd have overcome it to go to the moon.
597
00:38:33,700 --> 00:38:35,400
I know you would've.
598
00:38:38,900 --> 00:38:43,000
I'm really happy you're introducing me.
I'm really happy about that.
599
00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:52,400
There's something important
I have to say.
600
00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:56,400
Say it.
601
00:38:58,700 --> 00:39:01,700
I haven't really made up my mind yet...
602
00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:04,900
...but at the moment...
603
00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:08,100
...I'm leaning towards voting for you.
604
00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:28,600
"Fall victim to torpor and timidity."
Torpor...
605
00:39:28,900 --> 00:39:31,200
...is not a word a lot of people know.
606
00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:33,300
- It means apathy.
- And dullness.
607
00:39:33,500 --> 00:39:35,300
- I know what it means.
- Doug means...
608
00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:38,000
- They know what I mean.
- Hi.
609
00:39:42,500 --> 00:39:44,200
If they don't know what it means...
610
00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:46,100
- What's the word?
- Torpor.
611
00:39:46,700 --> 00:39:48,400
- It means apathy.
- And dullness.
612
00:39:48,700 --> 00:39:52,100
I know what the word means. I'm saying
if people don't know what it means...
613
00:39:52,400 --> 00:39:55,400
- They can look it up.
- Good morning, Mr. President.
614
00:39:55,600 --> 00:39:59,500
It's not our job to appeal to the lowest
common denominator, we have to raise it.
615
00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:04,500
If you're gonna be the education president,
don't hide that you have an education.
616
00:40:05,400 --> 00:40:06,700
Bruno, would you mind?
617
00:40:20,900 --> 00:40:22,600
Churchill and F.D.R.
618
00:40:22,900 --> 00:40:26,600
Serious men using big words
for big purpose.
619
00:40:35,100 --> 00:40:38,700
It occurs to me I never said I'm sorry.
620
00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:41,500
I am.
621
00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:44,300
For the lawyers, for the press...
622
00:40:44,500 --> 00:40:47,800
...for the mess, for the fear.
623
00:40:48,700 --> 00:40:53,100
Bruno, Doug, Connie, these guys are
good and they wanna win. So do we.
624
00:40:53,400 --> 00:40:56,200
The only thing we want more
is to be right.
625
00:40:57,600 --> 00:40:59,900
I wonder if you can't do both.
626
00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:05,600
There's a new book,
and we're gonna write it.
627
00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:10,000
You can win if you run a smart,
disciplined campaign...
628
00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:12,400
...if you studiously say nothing...
629
00:41:12,600 --> 00:41:15,400
...nothing that causes you trouble,
nothing that's a gaffe...
630
00:41:15,700 --> 00:41:20,200
...nothing that shows you think a wrong
thing, nothing that shows you think...
631
00:41:20,500 --> 00:41:23,200
...but it isn't worthy of us, is it, Toby?
- No, sir.
632
00:41:23,400 --> 00:41:28,100
It isn't worthy of us or America.
It isn't worthy of a great nation.
633
00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:31,600
We're gonna write a new book,
right here, right now...
634
00:41:31,900 --> 00:41:33,300
...this very moment, today.
635
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:37,400
Sir?
636
00:41:37,700 --> 00:41:39,800
It is my pleasure...
637
00:41:40,900 --> 00:41:42,900
... and my great fortune...
638
00:41:43,300 --> 00:41:45,700
... to introduce my husband...
639
00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:48,900
... our friend...
640
00:41:49,300 --> 00:41:51,600
... New Hampshire's greatest son...
641
00:41:51,900 --> 00:41:56,900
... and the President of the United States,
Josiah Bartlet!
642
00:41:57,900 --> 00:42:00,300
You know what? Break's over.
