1
00:00:06,332 --> 00:00:08,159
Previously on The West Wing:
2
00:00:08,376 --> 00:00:12,207
Andy's pregnant. It's twins and,
of course, I'm the father.
3
00:00:12,421 --> 00:00:13,832
You know I'm gonna get sued.
4
00:00:14,047 --> 00:00:16,621
- I work for Senator Hoynes.
- Yeah.
5
00:00:16,842 --> 00:00:21,219
I wonder if I'd listened to you two years
ago, would I be president right now?
6
00:00:21,429 --> 00:00:24,383
- You did it for the widow?
- And for a guy named Will Bailey...
7
00:00:24,557 --> 00:00:26,596
...who ran the campaign
and worked his ass off.
8
00:00:26,767 --> 00:00:28,760
You might be asked tomorrow...
9
00:00:28,936 --> 00:00:31,142
...if you're endorsing me.
- Am I?
10
00:00:31,355 --> 00:00:33,228
Toby, is the president endorsing Sam?
11
00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:34,555
We think you should run.
12
00:00:34,733 --> 00:00:37,224
- What do you think?
- I think you should win.
13
00:00:40,613 --> 00:00:43,151
How do you interpret
the margin of victory?
14
00:00:43,324 --> 00:00:46,029
The votes have been counted
and the people have spoken...
15
00:00:46,202 --> 00:00:49,867
...and it's clear that their will is for me
to do and have anything I want.
16
00:00:50,039 --> 00:00:52,327
Mr. President, Arnold White,
Associated Press...
17
00:00:52,499 --> 00:00:54,492
...what's the first legislative priority?
18
00:00:54,668 --> 00:00:57,419
- There's a new guy from AP?
- Yeah, what's your priority?
19
00:00:57,587 --> 00:01:00,754
The president of Turkmenistan
just officially extended the date...
20
00:01:00,924 --> 00:01:03,711
...of adolescence to 25.
So things like that.
21
00:01:03,885 --> 00:01:06,838
I think he also renamed
the month of January after himself.
22
00:01:07,013 --> 00:01:10,761
That's greedy. Real power is knowing
when to leave something on the table.
23
00:01:10,933 --> 00:01:14,218
- Sir, what legislative...?
- Patients' Bill of Rights, drugs...
24
00:01:14,394 --> 00:01:17,229
...keeping the economy growing,
find a surplus again...
25
00:01:17,397 --> 00:01:20,433
...keep the surplus growing,
use the surplus to build schools...
26
00:01:20,608 --> 00:01:24,392
...worthy of defending the military that
Fitz and Hutchinson are gonna build...
27
00:01:24,570 --> 00:01:26,859
...to fight urban wars,
then pay the teachers.
28
00:01:27,031 --> 00:01:29,522
I asked for a legislative priority,
you gave me nine.
29
00:01:29,700 --> 00:01:33,780
It's a big country, Arnold. Debbie, where
the hell are you? And where are my...?
30
00:01:33,954 --> 00:01:36,955
You left your glasses in the mansion...
31
00:01:37,123 --> 00:01:40,788
...and the lpswich clams in Chesapeake
Bay can hear you bellowing right now.
32
00:01:40,960 --> 00:01:43,166
Ipswich clams don't come
from Chesapeake Bay.
33
00:01:43,337 --> 00:01:44,666
They come from lpswich.
34
00:01:44,839 --> 00:01:47,164
- Not anymore.
- Have her beheaded for my birthday.
35
00:01:47,341 --> 00:01:50,377
They'll ask you how you feel
about housing starts going down.
36
00:01:50,552 --> 00:01:52,675
I don't care as long
as I'm keeping this one.
37
00:01:52,846 --> 00:01:55,171
- GDP growth is strong.
- You bet your ass it is...
38
00:01:55,348 --> 00:01:57,886
...which, by the way,
I can pad anytime I want now.
39
00:01:58,059 --> 00:02:01,143
The voters have spoken.
Lowest inflation in 20 years.
40
00:02:01,312 --> 00:02:04,432
Housing starts are cyclical,
which is the thing. What do you got?
41
00:02:04,607 --> 00:02:07,145
- Flooding in Missouri.
- FEMA's on the ground?
42
00:02:07,318 --> 00:02:08,646
- Yeah.
- All right.
43
00:02:08,819 --> 00:02:11,736
I've got the Swiss ambassador
in my office. I don't know why.
44
00:02:11,905 --> 00:02:14,776
You and I enjoy your funny jokes,
but Idaho, not so much.
45
00:02:14,950 --> 00:02:17,072
- Take it easy in there?
- I know my people.
46
00:02:17,243 --> 00:02:19,995
Sometimes it's hard to believe
I'm one of them. Good luck.
47
00:02:20,163 --> 00:02:21,989
Thank you.
48
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:29,074
Advertise your product or brand here
contact www.OpenSubtitles.org today
49
00:02:31,924 --> 00:02:35,127
- Ambassador Von Rutte.
- Okay.
50
00:02:35,302 --> 00:02:38,089
- Thank you for seeing me.
- What's going on?
51
00:02:38,263 --> 00:02:42,212
A communication from Tehran. You
understand our mission's the only one.
52
00:02:42,391 --> 00:02:45,511
The president appreciates it.
53
00:02:46,187 --> 00:02:50,231
The ayatollah's son has a congenital
heart condition...
54
00:02:50,399 --> 00:02:52,272
...Eisenmenger's Syndrome.
55
00:02:52,442 --> 00:02:56,143
His best chance is a simultaneous
heart and lung transplant.
56
00:02:56,363 --> 00:02:59,696
- They asked Japan?
- Procedures differ, they want yours.
57
00:02:59,866 --> 00:03:05,701
- What's wrong with Japan's?
- Well, I don't know how to... No one...
58
00:03:05,913 --> 00:03:08,665
- It hasn't been successful?
- No.
59
00:03:08,874 --> 00:03:11,329
Okay, then ours is better.
Anybody else do this?
60
00:03:11,543 --> 00:03:14,746
- Just the U.S. and Japan.
- No, Japan doesn't do it yet.
61
00:03:14,921 --> 00:03:19,547
Coming close doesn't matter on this,
it's not the Gemini missions.
62
00:03:19,717 --> 00:03:23,466
I'm gonna talk to the president, but if
it means bumping an American off...
63
00:03:23,638 --> 00:03:26,757
Iran has a donor.
64
00:03:26,932 --> 00:03:30,764
- A donor or a dissenter?
- This is from Doctors Without Borders.
65
00:03:30,936 --> 00:03:32,395
It wasn't from the ayatollah?
66
00:03:32,562 --> 00:03:35,184
They were approached
by the ayatollah's brother-in-law.
67
00:03:35,815 --> 00:03:40,892
This is coming through you, through
an NGO, through the brother-in-law.
68
00:03:41,070 --> 00:03:45,648
Guy will put his son's life in the infidels'
hands, but he'll keep his distance?
69
00:03:45,825 --> 00:03:47,568
The hard-liners control the Majlis.
70
00:03:47,785 --> 00:03:50,702
Things are difficult for him
with the Shehab missile tests.
71
00:03:50,871 --> 00:03:53,196
He cannot have a problem
with his right flank.
72
00:03:53,415 --> 00:03:57,792
Yeah, much better we should
have a problem with ours.
73
00:03:59,712 --> 00:04:01,669
- I'll talk to him.
- The president?
74
00:04:02,882 --> 00:04:05,836
Don 't get me wrong, Mark,
I think January's a good month.
75
00:04:06,010 --> 00:04:11,252
Yeah, the president, generalissimo,
whatever he comes back as.
76
00:05:01,060 --> 00:05:03,551
- Messages.
- Goodwin at AP.
77
00:05:03,729 --> 00:05:05,188
- What else?
- Judy Vanderbass...
78
00:05:05,356 --> 00:05:08,392
...wife of our ambassador to Vietnam,
you've been to her house.
79
00:05:08,609 --> 00:05:12,191
Yeah, I'm sure I ate a springer spaniel.
Why is AP on my phone sheet?
80
00:05:12,362 --> 00:05:16,360
Triplehorn told him you're the reason
there's no deal on prescription drugs.
81
00:05:16,574 --> 00:05:20,524
- I'm the reason?
-"With Lyman negotiating..." Yeah.
82
00:05:20,703 --> 00:05:24,747
- I feel ill-will toward the minority leader.
- I've had it up to here with the Welsh.
83
00:05:24,915 --> 00:05:27,786
I'm not kidding. He was campaigning
with us a half-hour ago.
84
00:05:28,085 --> 00:05:29,662
School's back. Go see him.
85
00:05:29,836 --> 00:05:31,995
Let's call that Plan A.
Plan B is you see him.
86
00:05:32,214 --> 00:05:34,787
- Karen Kroft.
- And National Parks screw me up again.
87
00:05:35,008 --> 00:05:37,166
Yeah.
88
00:05:39,387 --> 00:05:42,969
I'm gonna head to the leader's office.
Get me the first free minute he has.
89
00:05:43,140 --> 00:05:44,931
And Judy Vanderbass?
90
00:05:45,100 --> 00:05:47,556
Let's do this. Find out
what her problem is...
91
00:05:47,728 --> 00:05:50,135
...solve it, and then do something else.
92
00:05:50,355 --> 00:05:54,055
- You're the reason there are term limits.
- Yeah? You're the reason...
93
00:05:56,110 --> 00:05:59,147
Nothing. Nothing's happening.
Nothing's there.
94
00:06:18,172 --> 00:06:20,379
- You seem fine.
- I am.
95
00:06:20,841 --> 00:06:22,501
- You really seem fine.
- I really am.
96
00:06:22,676 --> 00:06:24,550
Good.
97
00:06:25,304 --> 00:06:28,719
The view from the canvas,
it's educational, you know.
98
00:06:29,099 --> 00:06:31,637
Yeah, I've had extensive education.
99
00:06:34,437 --> 00:06:37,010
What was the final margin?
100
00:06:38,274 --> 00:06:40,148
One hundred and twenty-seven votes.
101
00:06:40,818 --> 00:06:43,854
- A hundred and twenty-seven.
- That's about 12 lawn signs.
102
00:06:44,238 --> 00:06:47,073
- Wasn't your last election also...?
- Eighty-two votes.
103
00:06:48,742 --> 00:06:53,783
The president says all you
need is one, the rest is for ego.
104
00:06:55,248 --> 00:06:58,498
- How many did the president win by?
- About three and a half million.
105
00:06:58,668 --> 00:07:01,040
- Yeah.
- He's got a pretty healthy ego, though.
106
00:07:01,212 --> 00:07:04,331
I don't know,
maybe the job wasn't for me.
107
00:07:04,506 --> 00:07:09,713
I like land. I like dirt.
I like things that live on land and dirt.
108
00:07:10,470 --> 00:07:13,886
I like hotels. I like a good concierge.
109
00:07:14,057 --> 00:07:16,927
Could you be a little more
sympathetic? I'm a loser.
110
00:07:17,143 --> 00:07:18,471
Not a big one.
111
00:07:19,061 --> 00:07:21,137
Okay.
112
00:07:22,731 --> 00:07:24,854
The president thinks
there's a place for you.
113
00:07:25,025 --> 00:07:29,236
That's nice of you guys. It really is.
114
00:07:29,404 --> 00:07:31,444
But I was thinking about...
115
00:07:31,615 --> 00:07:35,861
I was thinking about maybe trying
for a job with the National Park Service.
116
00:07:36,953 --> 00:07:41,449
- We were thinking the same thing.
- A job with the National Park Service?
117
00:07:41,624 --> 00:07:42,952
As what?
118
00:07:43,500 --> 00:07:45,493
The director of the
National Park Service.
119
00:07:45,711 --> 00:07:48,581
- Are you kidding me?
- No.
120
00:07:48,797 --> 00:07:51,916
- You're not kidding?
- No.
121
00:07:53,051 --> 00:07:54,960
- Is this just because...?
- Do you want it?
122
00:07:55,136 --> 00:07:56,630
Yes.
123
00:07:56,804 --> 00:07:58,797
Yes.
124
00:07:58,973 --> 00:08:02,805
Then get yourself a big hat, and Leo's
gonna call you in a couple hours.
125
00:08:07,439 --> 00:08:10,689
Susan, Karnow and Duffy
are the first three for tea.
126
00:08:10,859 --> 00:08:14,025
- All's well that ends well.
- Karen Kroft. National Parks chairman.
127
00:08:14,195 --> 00:08:15,820
- Nice.
- She's very happy.
128
00:08:15,988 --> 00:08:18,277
Andy's about to get
sued for election fraud.
129
00:08:18,449 --> 00:08:20,738
- Andy was trying to get sued for fraud.
- Really?
130
00:08:20,910 --> 00:08:23,447
Yeah. She's a pistol.
131
00:08:27,207 --> 00:08:29,579
Everyone, please take your seats.
132
00:08:30,710 --> 00:08:33,545
Susan, Karnow and Duffy
are the first three for tea...
133
00:08:33,713 --> 00:08:37,212
...with the president at 3 p.m. in the
Map Room. Susan, Karnow and Duffy.
134
00:08:37,383 --> 00:08:40,170
Next week it's Mark,
Leslie and Eric.
135
00:08:40,344 --> 00:08:43,380
- Who's running Sam's campaign?
- Sam's putting his team together.
136
00:08:43,555 --> 00:08:47,090
I'm referring those questions to the
campaign's press office. John, Katie.
137
00:08:47,267 --> 00:08:48,595
Will the president attend...?
138
00:08:51,688 --> 00:08:54,357
Mr. Seaborn, how does it feel
to have the nomination?
139
00:08:54,524 --> 00:08:56,896
There is no nomination,
there is a primary...
140
00:08:57,068 --> 00:09:00,271
...and if someone gets 50 percent
of the vote, there is no general.
141
00:09:00,446 --> 00:09:03,482
There are no other Democrats running.
They're endorsing you.
142
00:09:03,699 --> 00:09:06,190
- Wouldn't you say you're the nominee?
- I suppose.
143
00:09:06,368 --> 00:09:10,068
- Have you staffed the key positions yet?
- I'm gonna let Will Bailey answer.
144
00:09:10,246 --> 00:09:14,196
Campaign manager is Scott Holcomb.
Finance director is Betsy Wadkins.
145
00:09:14,375 --> 00:09:16,249
Communications director
is Mark Stearns.
146
00:09:16,461 --> 00:09:18,453
Excuse me for a second.
Can I talk to you?
147
00:09:18,671 --> 00:09:20,213
Political director is Tom Baker.
148
00:09:20,381 --> 00:09:22,872
The volunteer coordinator
is Paula Montgomery.
149
00:09:23,050 --> 00:09:25,719
- Over here, please.
- Thank you.
150
00:09:34,936 --> 00:09:36,311
- Hi.
- Hi.
151
00:09:36,521 --> 00:09:38,643
Scott's campaign manager?
What's your title?
152
00:09:38,856 --> 00:09:40,433
- Citizen Bailey.
- I'm not kidding.
153
00:09:40,608 --> 00:09:42,647
- I'm the chancellor of Germany.
- Will...
154
00:09:42,818 --> 00:09:45,356
- What the hell's going on?
- Your team's in the field.
155
00:09:45,570 --> 00:09:47,480
- What are you talking about?
- Yeah, Will.
156
00:09:47,656 --> 00:09:50,859
You and I had this conversation
for two hours. What are you doing?
157
00:09:51,034 --> 00:09:53,441
- I don't think you should go.
- You made that clear.
158
00:09:53,620 --> 00:09:57,119
- I'm doing this now.
- Listen, there are too many chiefs here.
159
00:09:57,290 --> 00:09:59,412
- I'll get rid of some.
- No, you want them.
160
00:09:59,625 --> 00:10:01,950
Scott Holcomb and Betsy,
these guys are the best.
161
00:10:02,127 --> 00:10:06,207
We just went from 435 House races
to one. You get the all-star team.
162
00:10:06,423 --> 00:10:08,546
He doesn't want the best,
he wants you.
163
00:10:08,717 --> 00:10:12,381
Yes, but the Republicans are starting
their starters, so you gotta match up.
164
00:10:12,595 --> 00:10:15,466
We match up fine.
You got me into this.
165
00:10:15,681 --> 00:10:17,306
Well, you got you into this...
166
00:10:17,475 --> 00:10:20,594
...but I owe you the best chance to win.
I owe that to Mr. Wilde.
167
00:10:20,811 --> 00:10:22,353
Tell him that's ridiculous.
168
00:10:22,521 --> 00:10:26,388
I took the race to show the DNC
that no district should be ignored.
169
00:10:27,901 --> 00:10:30,855
- What are you gonna do?
- I'll stick around for a week and help...
170
00:10:31,029 --> 00:10:33,152
...and then I'm gonna take a vacation.
171
00:10:33,364 --> 00:10:36,531
- Where?
- I don't know. France, Italy, Wales.
172
00:10:36,701 --> 00:10:38,740
Maybe EPCOT.
173
00:10:39,161 --> 00:10:40,655
All right.
174
00:10:40,829 --> 00:10:43,830
I've gotta head to Washington.
I'll see you day after tomorrow.
175
00:10:44,041 --> 00:10:45,535
- Have a good flight.
- Thank you.
176
00:10:45,709 --> 00:10:47,417
- Have a good flight, Sam.
- Thank you.
177
00:10:47,586 --> 00:10:49,293
- EPCOT?
- I was kidding.
178
00:10:49,462 --> 00:10:51,538
- I didn't know.
- Yeah.
179
00:10:59,638 --> 00:11:03,386
- Sir?
- Yeah. It's called penmanship, Watson.
180
00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:08,185
Something your generation wouldn't
know about because of the computers.
181
00:11:08,355 --> 00:11:10,762
- How many of these things am I doing?
- Sixty.
182
00:11:10,940 --> 00:11:12,482
- How many have I done?
- Three.
183
00:11:12,650 --> 00:11:14,856
- Three?
- Yeah, this is what I'm talking about.
184
00:11:15,027 --> 00:11:17,814
- Your system's slowing me down.
- I don't have a system.
185
00:11:17,988 --> 00:11:20,859
- You're kidding?
- You ready?
186
00:11:21,033 --> 00:11:24,117
Hey, can't we have color codings
and stickers, priority lists?
187
00:11:24,286 --> 00:11:27,489
- Can I get a little bureaucracy going?
- What are you doing?
188
00:11:27,664 --> 00:11:29,822
I'm doing basically
what the president does.
189
00:11:29,999 --> 00:11:33,285
Ask people for things and then
thank them for things.
190
00:11:33,461 --> 00:11:35,370
Let's go.
191
00:11:35,546 --> 00:11:39,045
Take the calls to the mansion.
I'll meet you there after this.
192
00:11:43,262 --> 00:11:45,633
We had a couple of cats
when the kids were kids...
193
00:11:45,806 --> 00:11:49,257
...named Mr. Finch and Mrs. Wilburforce
or something, I can't remember.
194
00:11:49,434 --> 00:11:52,435
You know, I've never really
liked human names for animals.
195
00:11:52,603 --> 00:11:53,979
- Really?
- Yeah.
196
00:11:54,146 --> 00:11:56,554
Okay. Well, I can't believe
my kids didn't think...
197
00:11:56,732 --> 00:11:58,641
...to ask you what to name the cats.
198
00:11:58,817 --> 00:12:01,818
But they used to bring mice
into the house and show them to me.
199
00:12:01,987 --> 00:12:04,312
This is how I'm starting
to feel about the Swiss.
200
00:12:04,489 --> 00:12:05,818
Yeah.
201
00:12:05,991 --> 00:12:07,983
- Morning.
- Good morning, Mr. President.
202
00:12:08,159 --> 00:12:09,488
Tell me about the boy.
203
00:12:09,661 --> 00:12:13,492
He and a guardian have crossed into
Kandahar. A UN plane is on the ground.
204
00:12:13,664 --> 00:12:17,247
It's gonna leave at 11:45 Zulu
if you say okay.
205
00:12:17,418 --> 00:12:18,793
- Eleven forty-five?
- Yes, sir.
206
00:12:18,961 --> 00:12:21,037
- That's 11 minutes from now.
- Yes, sir.
207
00:12:21,255 --> 00:12:22,630
This meeting's premature.
208
00:12:22,798 --> 00:12:25,502
- We should wait 10 minutes.
- Yes, sir.
209
00:12:25,717 --> 00:12:28,338
This meeting doesn't go in the
Sit Room anymore, okay?
210
00:12:28,553 --> 00:12:31,388
I don't know why it's here.
This isn't a military operation.
211
00:12:31,597 --> 00:12:35,215
- It's a secure room.
- My office is a secure room too, isn't it?
212
00:12:35,434 --> 00:12:38,768
Please, somebody tell me it is,
or I gotta go pack some stuff.
213
00:12:38,979 --> 00:12:41,268
- You see my point?
- What about the organs?
214
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:46,066
- The organs are in Zurich.
- I'm sorry, that sounded funny to me.
215
00:12:46,236 --> 00:12:48,940
I'm the kid in bio
who laughed all the time.
216
00:12:49,113 --> 00:12:52,529
- Then on to Paris on Swiss Air.
- Coach?
217
00:12:52,700 --> 00:12:54,278
- I don't...
- Then New York?
218
00:12:54,493 --> 00:12:56,782
- Yes, sir.
- The heart and lungs get here first.
219
00:12:56,954 --> 00:13:00,157
They can last about 40 hours,
the flight from Tehran's 15.
220
00:13:00,332 --> 00:13:02,953
What's left is to line up
a doctor and get the funding.
221
00:13:03,251 --> 00:13:05,659
- Go around the room.
- If it leaks, you got clerics.
222
00:13:05,879 --> 00:13:07,670
It sends a message to the reformists.
223
00:13:07,839 --> 00:13:11,005
At a time when they're breaking
70 percent in local elections.
224
00:13:11,175 --> 00:13:14,544
If you're looking for ways to temper
support to the Shiites, I don't...
225
00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:17,009
- A benevolent power must...
- This isn't the time.
226
00:13:17,181 --> 00:13:21,392
Don't forget the Shehab program and the
transport corridors along the Silk Route.
227
00:13:22,269 --> 00:13:23,846
How old is he?
228
00:13:24,521 --> 00:13:26,229
- I'm sorry?
- How old is he?
229
00:13:26,398 --> 00:13:28,556
- Fifteen.
- Fifteen.
230
00:13:28,733 --> 00:13:30,108
The Shiites, Manny...
231
00:13:30,276 --> 00:13:34,060
...that's what you want me to take back
to my thoracic surgeon wife?
232
00:13:35,322 --> 00:13:36,947
Get this boy in preop.
233
00:13:37,116 --> 00:13:41,409
Tell the Swiss to stop standing
in the door with a mouse in their mouth.
234
00:13:41,662 --> 00:13:45,873
- If they're coming in, come in.
- You won't regret it, sir. It won't leak.
235
00:13:46,082 --> 00:13:49,451
No, because we're in a secure room,
except for the ayatollah's staff...
236
00:13:49,627 --> 00:13:51,703
...a Swiss Air pilot and 400 other people.
237
00:13:52,129 --> 00:13:54,667
- Laney, is this gonna leak?
- Well...
238
00:13:54,924 --> 00:13:57,212
I feel better already.
239
00:13:58,427 --> 00:14:02,970
Mr. Finch and Mrs. Wilburforce.
There's nothing wrong with my memory.
240
00:14:03,140 --> 00:14:07,766
Though those are stupid names.
There's something wrong with my kids.
241
00:14:24,326 --> 00:14:26,365
Come on, Josh.
242
00:14:30,456 --> 00:14:31,915
The Senate's out of session...
243
00:14:32,083 --> 00:14:35,083
...you ought to think about putting
a Ping-Pong table out here.
244
00:14:35,252 --> 00:14:38,787
- I don't think that would be a good idea.
- Quick rounds between motions...
245
00:14:38,964 --> 00:14:41,336
- Now just because the Senate's not...
- I'm kidding.
246
00:14:41,550 --> 00:14:44,467
- You'd be surprised what people think.
- Read the AP wire.
247
00:14:44,636 --> 00:14:47,755
- You know what that's about.
- Yeah, you're running for president.
248
00:14:47,931 --> 00:14:50,421
We hold elections in this country,
not coronations.
249
00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:53,933
- I'm not saying any different.
- Then why is every...? I must've...
250
00:14:54,103 --> 00:14:58,100
I've talked to two dozen of your precinct
captains in lowa and New Hampshire.
251
00:14:58,273 --> 00:15:02,057
- Nearly every one of them's locked up.
- They're locked...
252
00:15:02,235 --> 00:15:05,900
You're recruiting precinct captains
48 months before the next election?
253
00:15:06,114 --> 00:15:09,862
John Hoynes is using the White House
to lock up the Democratic primaries.
254
00:15:10,034 --> 00:15:12,240
If you're saying there's
a nomination fight...
255
00:15:12,411 --> 00:15:14,071
Hoynes doesn't inherit this.
256
00:15:14,246 --> 00:15:17,496
I'm not gonna see the party
dragged to the middle.
257
00:15:17,666 --> 00:15:21,533
Nothing's being dragged anywhere.
You were with us just days ago.
258
00:15:21,711 --> 00:15:25,661
- This is about the future of the party.
- Yeah, how about we enjoy the present?
259
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:29,672
You agree with Hoynes on guns?
On trade? On school choice?
260
00:15:29,844 --> 00:15:32,928
Look, Hoynes is... Did I fall asleep
for three and a half years?
261
00:15:33,097 --> 00:15:35,089
You think a minority leader's
irrelevant?
262
00:15:35,266 --> 00:15:37,554
You think I can't affect
the president's agenda?
263
00:15:37,768 --> 00:15:41,979
- I know you can.
- I'd like you to be for me, Josh.
264
00:15:42,147 --> 00:15:46,014
Not because you're good at what
you do, because of your beliefs.
265
00:15:46,234 --> 00:15:50,148
Okay, I'm not for anyone. I barely
unpacked from the last campaign.
266
00:15:50,321 --> 00:15:55,563
Well, Hoynes is gonna have to release
those precinct captains or we're...
267
00:15:58,203 --> 00:16:00,908
It keeps getting earlier, doesn't it?
268
00:16:01,081 --> 00:16:02,539
Yes.
269
00:16:04,501 --> 00:16:08,284
And they're asking for you in the
HHS meeting, and the 5: 15's new.
270
00:16:08,463 --> 00:16:13,290
- The CEA?
- Ways to fight a possible recession.
271
00:16:13,467 --> 00:16:16,717
- What did we say?
-"Don't say 'recession' in this building."
272
00:16:16,887 --> 00:16:19,804
- You just did it again!
- What do I call the meeting?
273
00:16:19,973 --> 00:16:23,057
The robust economy meeting.
274
00:16:24,769 --> 00:16:27,141
- Josh is patching it up with Triplehorn.
- Good.
275
00:16:27,355 --> 00:16:31,566
- And Karen Kroft wants National Parks.
- She can't have it.
276
00:16:31,734 --> 00:16:33,607
- What are you talking about?
- She can't.
277
00:16:33,777 --> 00:16:36,731
- We talked about it.
- The president signed the Parks Bill.
278
00:16:36,905 --> 00:16:40,855
- The job just became Senate-confirmable.
- Yeah, that was for next fiscal year.
279
00:16:41,034 --> 00:16:45,363
It turns out it's retroactive.
I just saw the final language. Thanks.
280
00:16:45,538 --> 00:16:50,698
- Whose idea...? How did we miss this?
- There are 90 amendments in the bill.
281
00:16:50,876 --> 00:16:53,284
- Maybe we put her up anyway.
- No.
282
00:16:53,462 --> 00:16:56,582
- We asked her to do it.
- She led the charge for a higher gas tax.
283
00:16:56,757 --> 00:16:59,674
- We asked her to do it.
- The Senate isn't gonna understand.
284
00:16:59,843 --> 00:17:02,797
Plus, the minority leader
is already pissed at us.
285
00:17:05,557 --> 00:17:08,012
Okay, thanks.
286
00:17:09,518 --> 00:17:12,009
Ginger. Don't.
287
00:17:13,063 --> 00:17:17,939
I need a list of sub-cabinet vacancies
that aren't Senate-confirmable.
288
00:17:18,151 --> 00:17:22,730
- Mine's not.
- A little less sub-cabinet than that one.
289
00:17:23,573 --> 00:17:26,906
You wanna crash a space probe
into Neptune, that's fine with me.
290
00:17:27,076 --> 00:17:31,904
I think we've crashed into most of the
other planets, but 2.5 billion, okay?
291
00:17:32,081 --> 00:17:34,572
- Yes, sir.
- If we fail, I wanna do it on budget.
292
00:17:34,750 --> 00:17:37,288
Thank you, Mr. President.
293
00:17:40,088 --> 00:17:41,666
More thank-you notes?
294
00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:44,413
Why don't you tell Debbie
we're gonna do some calls.
295
00:17:44,634 --> 00:17:46,792
- Calls?
- Yes, calls.
296
00:17:47,011 --> 00:17:50,961
Calls. Mr. Sarcasm with your dry"calls."
297
00:17:51,140 --> 00:17:55,636
I was this close to renaming one
of the oceans after you, but no way.
298
00:17:55,811 --> 00:18:01,564
Maybe, maybe, one of the species
of fish. Like trout. Trout is now Charlie.
299
00:18:01,775 --> 00:18:04,230
Went to the lake,
pulled out a Charlie for dinner.
300
00:18:04,444 --> 00:18:07,444
Look at the size of that Charlie
you've got on your wall.
301
00:18:07,655 --> 00:18:09,778
Thank you, sir.
302
00:18:10,032 --> 00:18:12,867
- What do you got?
- Yeah, we've got a situation.
303
00:18:13,035 --> 00:18:15,193
- Yeah?
- Reuters has the ayatollah's son...
304
00:18:15,370 --> 00:18:19,154
...just left Afghanistan on a C-130.
Is he coming here for a heart transplant?
305
00:18:19,332 --> 00:18:22,618
- Heart and lung.
- I'm assuming we knew about this.
306
00:18:22,794 --> 00:18:26,376
- Knew about it? We did it.
- The ayatollah's issued a statement.
307
00:18:26,589 --> 00:18:29,922
- What kind?
- Bitterly denouncing it, sir.
308
00:18:30,134 --> 00:18:31,925
"Our nation can take care of its own.
309
00:18:32,094 --> 00:18:35,130
Interference from the West
is an affront to Islam."
310
00:18:58,285 --> 00:18:59,660
What's the room saying?
311
00:18:59,828 --> 00:19:02,947
They think we're hiding
Leo's meeting with the Swiss.
312
00:19:03,122 --> 00:19:06,076
- So you know, the press coffee...
- Can't do it now.
313
00:19:06,250 --> 00:19:08,290
Yes. You're right.
314
00:19:08,461 --> 00:19:11,296
- I need you to step out just a moment.
- Sure. Thank you.
315
00:19:11,505 --> 00:19:15,040
- We're not gonna not do it.
- I'm with you.
316
00:19:21,681 --> 00:19:24,433
Hi. Before you say anything,
here's my idea.
317
00:19:24,642 --> 00:19:28,177
The kid needs lungs and a heart.
Let's use the ayatollah's.
318
00:19:28,396 --> 00:19:32,310
- What are you smiling at?
- I'm sorry, it's... I'm sorry, sir.
319
00:19:32,483 --> 00:19:36,183
It's the little note
Margaret just passed me.
320
00:19:37,446 --> 00:19:40,565
"The Iranians, they've taken
to the streets." Perfect.
321
00:19:41,282 --> 00:19:45,066
- That goes to the Margaret Museum.
- Please don't forget all politics are local.
322
00:19:45,286 --> 00:19:47,195
- Bite me.
- He's gotta say something to...
323
00:19:47,371 --> 00:19:49,992
He's got to say something
to his hard-liners.
324
00:19:50,166 --> 00:19:54,377
He didn't wanna try"My son is dying,
and these guys maybe can fix him.
325
00:19:54,545 --> 00:19:59,206
And maybe if our citizens didn't spend
so much energy denouncing infidels...
326
00:19:59,382 --> 00:20:02,965
...they'd have time to build
a damn medical school!"
327
00:20:03,136 --> 00:20:06,339
The Swiss talked to the NGO,
who talked to the brother-in-law...
328
00:20:06,514 --> 00:20:08,802
...who speaks for the ayatollah.
329
00:20:08,974 --> 00:20:11,809
Just tell me that they
weren't using cellular technology...
330
00:20:11,977 --> 00:20:15,595
...because I don't care what
anybody says, it doesn't work yet.
331
00:20:15,772 --> 00:20:19,188
Think about linking it
to the missile tests.
332
00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:22,028
- What do you mean?
- Send a communiqué through the Swiss.
333
00:20:22,237 --> 00:20:27,278
The ayatollah's gotta honor Bahrain.
Stop all tests of the Shehab-3.
334
00:20:27,616 --> 00:20:28,992
He's gonna say no.
335
00:20:29,201 --> 00:20:32,036
That's when you tell him
you're gonna turn the plane around.
336
00:20:32,204 --> 00:20:33,532
- No.
- I said, you threaten...
337
00:20:33,705 --> 00:20:38,450
No. Come on. That's a 15-year-old
non-combatant on his way to a hospital.
338
00:20:38,627 --> 00:20:40,998
Pretend that plane's got
a big red cross on it.
339
00:20:41,212 --> 00:20:43,620
- They perfect medium-range missiles.
- I understand.
340
00:20:43,798 --> 00:20:46,882
- What's that do for hearts and lungs?
- Send a communiqué.
341
00:20:47,051 --> 00:20:51,297
There's a Bahrain agreement that says...
Send it. Don't even come close.
342
00:20:51,472 --> 00:20:58,352
I don't even want a scent of linkage to...
A big damn red cross right on that plane.
343
00:21:19,956 --> 00:21:22,957
Thanks for your help. I'll let you know.
344
00:21:24,043 --> 00:21:27,376
- I got this problem to put in perspective.
- What's the problem?
345
00:21:27,546 --> 00:21:30,630
Triplehorn thinks I'm a secret
operative for Hoynes.
346
00:21:30,841 --> 00:21:32,549
- Are you?
- I don't believe I am.
347
00:21:32,718 --> 00:21:34,544
- This ought to help.
- What?
348
00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:37,839
- Vanderbass didn't invite you to dinner.
- Thank merciful God.
349
00:21:38,014 --> 00:21:40,552
Turns out Trish Rackley,
wife of your protégé...
350
00:21:40,725 --> 00:21:43,430
...she had a problem
on the CODEL to Southeast Asia.
351
00:21:43,603 --> 00:21:44,931
The rice?
352
00:21:45,104 --> 00:21:47,891
No, really, the whole continent
loves the stereotype.
353
00:21:48,107 --> 00:21:51,310
- They eat a lot of rice, Donna.
- Mrs. Rackley borrowed $ 1500...
354
00:21:51,485 --> 00:21:55,814
...from Judy Vanderbass to buy a teak
bed for 2000, which is a good price.
355
00:21:56,573 --> 00:21:58,898
- And?
- Mrs. Rackley's check bounced.
356
00:21:59,701 --> 00:22:03,698
- Making it a great price.
- The Rackleys are stiffing her, Josh.
357
00:22:03,871 --> 00:22:06,788
- What do you mean,"Josh"?
- You put him on the delegation.
358
00:22:06,957 --> 00:22:09,875
I told State to look after him.
I didn't want him in trouble.
359
00:22:10,085 --> 00:22:12,576
Phil Rackley's office
won't return her calls.
360
00:22:12,796 --> 00:22:14,872
Well, see if they'll return yours.
361
00:22:21,346 --> 00:22:26,091
- Toby, Triplehorn's on fire.
- He needs to build a case against...
362
00:22:26,267 --> 00:22:30,015
Hoynes is lining up precinct captains
in lowa and New Hampshire.
363
00:22:30,187 --> 00:22:32,938
This is 10 minutes
after the polls close in California.
364
00:22:33,148 --> 00:22:36,268
And Winnick just called.
It's probably the same thing.
365
00:22:36,443 --> 00:22:39,646
Half the Senate's gonna run. If it looks
like we're giving Hoynes...
366
00:22:39,821 --> 00:22:43,652
Yeah. You gotta back him off.
367
00:22:43,824 --> 00:22:46,398
Okay, devil's advocate.
368
00:22:46,577 --> 00:22:48,902
- Isn't Hoynes entitled?
- Yeah, but not yet.
369
00:22:49,079 --> 00:22:52,697
It's just we got him on the ticket
by convincing him it wasn't his turn.
370
00:22:52,874 --> 00:22:55,412
We kept him out, because it
wasn't his turn, and now...
371
00:22:55,794 --> 00:22:58,367
There aren't any turns.
372
00:23:17,647 --> 00:23:21,561
So these two people
rob a Starbucks near Seattle.
373
00:23:21,734 --> 00:23:24,818
Half an hour they serve coffee
to make more money.
374
00:23:24,987 --> 00:23:27,941
- Know when they make their getaway?
- When business slows down.
375
00:23:28,115 --> 00:23:29,443
Beat that?
376
00:23:29,616 --> 00:23:32,285
- When's Josh meeting with Hoynes?
- Soon.
377
00:23:32,452 --> 00:23:34,445
What do you need?
378
00:23:35,330 --> 00:23:38,699
Alternate federal co-chair of the
Appalachian Regional Commission.
379
00:23:38,917 --> 00:23:40,826
- What about it?
- It's Senate-confirmable.
380
00:23:41,002 --> 00:23:43,956
- Really?
- So is commissioner of Hopi Relocation.
381
00:23:44,755 --> 00:23:49,168
Let me tell you something about
this job, you need a deep bench.
382
00:23:52,262 --> 00:23:54,753
Inspector general of the
Railroad Retirement Board...
383
00:23:54,931 --> 00:23:57,636
...director of the Institute
of Museum Studies...
384
00:23:57,851 --> 00:24:00,092
- My job's not.
- Ginger beat you to that joke.
385
00:24:00,269 --> 00:24:03,852
- Karen lost her seat because of us.
- What do you want me to do?
386
00:24:04,023 --> 00:24:07,771
Get used to the fact that we won
in a landslide. We can fight on this.
387
00:24:07,985 --> 00:24:10,476
Ernest went down for the gun ban,
Janice for taxes...
388
00:24:10,654 --> 00:24:13,192
This is different.
We asked her to introduce the bill.
389
00:24:13,365 --> 00:24:15,357
She knew that.
It's called a trial balloon.
390
00:24:15,742 --> 00:24:18,233
Yeah, but it's also
called a recorded vote.
391
00:24:18,411 --> 00:24:23,322
She did that kind of thing for us.
She was our gal on the back bench.
392
00:24:23,541 --> 00:24:26,411
She poured lighter fluid
on the Republican leadership.
393
00:24:26,585 --> 00:24:29,954
They're not gonna confirm her.
They're gonna make us look bad doing it.
394
00:24:30,172 --> 00:24:34,003
And we still got half a new
cabinet to confirm.
395
00:24:34,175 --> 00:24:36,880
- They're starting.
- Thanks.
396
00:24:43,642 --> 00:24:45,350
The Hopi Relocation guy?
397
00:24:46,562 --> 00:24:48,435
Yeah.
398
00:24:56,029 --> 00:24:58,105
Laney says the plane's
still six hours out.
399
00:24:58,281 --> 00:25:01,780
With a headwind that could
buy us another hour. The problem is...
400
00:25:01,993 --> 00:25:04,483
- We don't have a doctor.
- What are you talking about?
401
00:25:04,662 --> 00:25:06,453
There are only three who can do this.
402
00:25:06,622 --> 00:25:09,741
Jorrey's in the middle of a heart
valve replacement, Weingarten...
403
00:25:09,916 --> 00:25:13,001
- Where's he?
- Rappelling the north face of K2.
404
00:25:13,587 --> 00:25:17,121
- Rappelling up or rappelling down?
- It's in Pakistan. What does it matter?
405
00:25:17,298 --> 00:25:19,754
- It's not in Pakistan, you only think it is.
- Okay.
406
00:25:19,967 --> 00:25:22,126
If I need a life-saving procedure,
make sure...
407
00:25:22,303 --> 00:25:25,220
...the surgeon's suffering
from massive oxygen deprivation.
408
00:25:25,431 --> 00:25:28,467
- Who's the third?
- Dr. Ehsan Mohebi at Smith-Lansing.
409
00:25:28,642 --> 00:25:30,551
- Oh, don't tell me.
- Yeah.
410
00:25:30,769 --> 00:25:34,434
He fled Iran in '80 after fundamentalists
tortured and killed his father.
411
00:25:34,647 --> 00:25:37,138
The one guy who could save his son,
and he tortured his father.
412
00:25:37,317 --> 00:25:40,436
- That's just bad staff work. Charlie!
- Are we sure about Japan?
413
00:25:40,611 --> 00:25:43,019
One of these days
they're gonna find the fairway.
414
00:25:43,239 --> 00:25:46,405
Would you pull the first lady
out of whatever she's in right now.
415
00:25:46,617 --> 00:25:50,116
- She's with the Women's Caucus.
- Put on a helmet and get in there.
416
00:25:50,287 --> 00:25:52,279
Make sure Mohebi's sitting by a phone.
417
00:25:52,581 --> 00:25:54,739
He takes an elevator,
we know the number.
418
00:25:54,958 --> 00:25:57,627
- That's it.
- Thank you, Mr. President.
419
00:26:03,924 --> 00:26:06,415
The National Committee's
got a list of conventions...
420
00:26:06,593 --> 00:26:09,629
...where we asked
the vice president to take our slot.
421
00:26:09,846 --> 00:26:13,096
And the DPC sent me this list
of his budget roll-outs...
422
00:26:13,266 --> 00:26:16,350
...and it's for last year. I need all four.
423
00:26:16,519 --> 00:26:18,227
Okay.
424
00:26:20,481 --> 00:26:22,023
- What?
- The deadbeat Rackleys.
425
00:26:22,233 --> 00:26:23,608
- I can't...
- Come on!
426
00:26:23,776 --> 00:26:25,104
You called them deadbeats.
427
00:26:25,319 --> 00:26:27,525
- For the sake of humor.
- Good one, Gracie.
428
00:26:27,738 --> 00:26:29,446
- Who hasn't bounced a check?
- Me.
429
00:26:29,614 --> 00:26:34,157
Yes, Mr. I-Balance-My-Checkbook-Every-
Month-and-Don't-Ever-Bounce-Checks.
430
00:26:34,369 --> 00:26:38,117
Everything you just said was a good
thing and by saying it like Ethel Mertz...
431
00:26:38,289 --> 00:26:40,116
Do you know what
a congressman makes?
432
00:26:40,291 --> 00:26:43,161
A buck and a half,
161,200 for the leadership.
433
00:26:43,335 --> 00:26:46,953
To maintain two residences,
fly your kids back and forth...
434
00:26:47,172 --> 00:26:50,339
I know you like to hit with me,
but go sit in the back of class...
435
00:26:50,509 --> 00:26:53,675
...because you just suggested
that making only 150,000 a year...
436
00:26:53,845 --> 00:26:56,596
...was reasonable justification
for committing a felony...
437
00:26:56,806 --> 00:26:59,095
...which is what it is, Lulu.
438
00:26:59,267 --> 00:27:03,015
- What the hell is Lulu?
- It's To Sir With Love.
439
00:27:03,312 --> 00:27:04,687
Thank you.
440
00:27:04,855 --> 00:27:06,978
- I just need the lists.
- I have the lists.
441
00:27:07,149 --> 00:27:08,809
That's why I'm asking you for them.
442
00:27:08,984 --> 00:27:10,312
- Do you want them?
- Yes.
443
00:27:10,485 --> 00:27:13,735
- We're talking about the lists?
- And you have them, and I want them.
444
00:27:13,905 --> 00:27:15,529
- Yes, ma'am.
- Hey, Terry.
445
00:27:15,698 --> 00:27:18,652
- Bobby, sir.
- Yeah.
446
00:27:19,035 --> 00:27:21,027
You pulled me out
of the Women's Caucus.
447
00:27:21,203 --> 00:27:24,038
No need to thank me.
448
00:27:24,206 --> 00:27:27,491
Whatever happened
to Mrs. Wilburforce?
449
00:27:27,668 --> 00:27:30,123
She moved to Miami
and took up massage.
450
00:27:30,295 --> 00:27:31,789
- Really?
- Last I heard.
451
00:27:31,963 --> 00:27:34,454
- What the hell are you talking about?
- You asked me.
452
00:27:34,632 --> 00:27:38,250
- Wasn't Mrs. Wilburforce our cat?
- She was our housekeeper.
453
00:27:38,427 --> 00:27:40,005
Really?
454
00:27:40,179 --> 00:27:43,963
All right, Eisenmenger's Syndrome.
455
00:27:44,141 --> 00:27:46,050
It's a cyanotic heart condition.
456
00:27:46,226 --> 00:27:49,180
There's something called
ventricular septal defect...
457
00:27:49,354 --> 00:27:51,679
The ayatollah's son has it.
458
00:27:51,856 --> 00:27:56,068
Am I dreaming, or are you talking
to me about foreign policy?
459
00:27:56,277 --> 00:27:57,736
Worried the sky's gonna fall?
460
00:27:57,945 --> 00:28:00,436
No, but I'm concerned
about spousal abuse.
461
00:28:00,656 --> 00:28:03,229
What's the problem?
There's a problem with State...?
462
00:28:03,409 --> 00:28:06,196
- The only doctor available won't do it.
- He's Jewish?
463
00:28:06,370 --> 00:28:08,409
- Persian.
- He doesn't have a choice.
464
00:28:08,622 --> 00:28:10,164
- Abbey...
- He doesn't.
465
00:28:10,373 --> 00:28:13,908
Doctors aren't instruments of state
and aren't allowed to choose patients.
466
00:28:14,127 --> 00:28:16,618
- I can't order him to do it.
- Yes, you can.
467
00:28:16,796 --> 00:28:19,037
Through the power
vested in me by you?
468
00:28:19,256 --> 00:28:22,293
Samuel Mudd set Booth's leg
after he shot Lincoln.
469
00:28:22,468 --> 00:28:25,504
Doctors are liable
if they don't treat the patient.
470
00:28:25,721 --> 00:28:28,674
This is why we don't
talk about foreign policy...
471
00:28:28,890 --> 00:28:31,428
...which we do, and you
don't think we do it enough.
472
00:28:31,601 --> 00:28:33,060
- Why?
- Because Samuel Mudd...
473
00:28:33,228 --> 00:28:35,897
...was tried and convicted
of treason for that.
474
00:28:36,105 --> 00:28:37,896
- So?
- What"so"?
475
00:28:38,065 --> 00:28:41,066
So that's the way it goes,
you set the leg.
476
00:28:42,569 --> 00:28:45,440
- The patient right in front of them?
- Yes.
477
00:28:48,074 --> 00:28:52,119
All right, go back to the sewing thing.
478
00:28:52,287 --> 00:28:54,528
It's the Women's...
479
00:28:56,249 --> 00:28:58,371
Never mind.
480
00:28:59,126 --> 00:29:01,617
I couldn't tell you the last time
I took a week away.
481
00:29:01,795 --> 00:29:05,129
- You ought to take a vacation yourself.
- Yeah, I don't get Hawaii.
482
00:29:05,299 --> 00:29:07,789
Great weather, great beaches,
universal health care.
483
00:29:07,968 --> 00:29:10,007
I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop.
484
00:29:10,178 --> 00:29:13,962
You remember Neil Spencer, the rep
from Honolulu who helped on the ag bill?
485
00:29:14,140 --> 00:29:16,927
Spent all his time
tanning on the Capitol balcony.
486
00:29:17,101 --> 00:29:20,849
- If he went home without a tan...
- They'd know he'd gone Washington.
487
00:29:21,021 --> 00:29:24,686
- We gotta talk politics.
- I'd like to.
488
00:29:26,151 --> 00:29:31,109
I'm glad we had that little talk
on Air Force Two. From time to time...
489
00:29:31,281 --> 00:29:33,818
We need you to stop
shopping for precinct captains.
490
00:29:34,951 --> 00:29:37,027
- Excuse me?
- We're days after an election.
491
00:29:37,203 --> 00:29:39,361
- It's too early...
- Is that what this is about?
492
00:29:39,538 --> 00:29:42,029
Triplehorn alone can tie us in knots.
493
00:29:42,249 --> 00:29:44,918
Good for Triplehorn.
I've got an obligation to myself.
494
00:29:45,127 --> 00:29:47,285
You've got a constitutional obligation.
495
00:29:47,462 --> 00:29:52,456
Last time I checked, my constitutional
obligation was to have a pulse.
496
00:29:53,676 --> 00:29:56,428
We need these two years.
497
00:29:56,596 --> 00:30:01,423
- It's our last chance to govern, John.
- Mr. Vice President.
498
00:30:03,894 --> 00:30:09,054
- There are gonna be lots of ways...
- No zealot like a convert, Josh.
499
00:30:13,611 --> 00:30:16,149
What's that supposed to mean?
500
00:30:18,157 --> 00:30:20,529
It means you'd have been
great at Leo's job.
501
00:30:23,912 --> 00:30:27,079
Half this town's gonna be running.
502
00:30:28,124 --> 00:30:31,908
I do the president's politics.
He can't govern if I'm seen as...
503
00:30:32,128 --> 00:30:34,121
Being for me?
504
00:30:36,549 --> 00:30:39,384
I don't think there's much risk of that.
505
00:30:46,475 --> 00:30:50,175
You were wrong.
I never went to Hawaii.
506
00:30:51,104 --> 00:30:54,472
- What?
- We skipped Hawaii.
507
00:30:54,649 --> 00:30:58,064
We went rafting
on the Flathead River instead.
508
00:31:07,577 --> 00:31:09,653
Don't touch that.
509
00:31:10,371 --> 00:31:12,530
Or that.
510
00:31:24,217 --> 00:31:27,467
"The boy's on the plane. He's
experiencing pulmonary hypertension."
511
00:31:27,637 --> 00:31:32,346
That's elevated pressure in the
lungs, I think. That could lead to what?
512
00:31:32,558 --> 00:31:35,310
- Doctor, that could lead to what?
- I'm sorry...
513
00:31:35,519 --> 00:31:37,512
That could lead to what?
514
00:31:37,688 --> 00:31:40,143
- Heart failure.
- That's what it says. Follow me.
515
00:31:40,649 --> 00:31:45,358
His right ventricular pressure
has risen to 102 millimeters mercury.
516
00:31:45,529 --> 00:31:47,854
Low-oxygen blood's
beginning to bypass the lungs.
517
00:31:48,031 --> 00:31:51,032
That's right. He has something
called"in situ thrombi."
518
00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:55,613
His arteries have lost their anticoagulant
properties, and I resent this.
519
00:31:55,788 --> 00:31:59,572
Doctor Mohebi, I don't care.
Why aren't you scrubbing up?
520
00:31:59,750 --> 00:32:02,869
People are taken from their homes
in the dead of night...
521
00:32:03,045 --> 00:32:05,002
...and jailed and tortured for months.
522
00:32:05,213 --> 00:32:06,957
- I know.
- Public executions...
523
00:32:07,132 --> 00:32:09,504
- Doctor...
- Political opponents dragged outside...
524
00:32:09,676 --> 00:32:12,593
- I know this. Don't you think I know?
- I won't aid the enemy.
525
00:32:12,762 --> 00:32:17,719
I'll let you know who the enemy is.
That's my job. It's not a 15-year-old boy.
526
00:32:21,228 --> 00:32:23,600
How do I know the organs
were donated voluntarily?
527
00:32:23,814 --> 00:32:26,731
- Doctors Without Borders.
- You don't know these people.
528
00:32:26,900 --> 00:32:30,185
I do know these people.
You're crazy if you don't think I do.
529
00:32:30,361 --> 00:32:32,270
I don't need to be told
who the enemy is.
530
00:32:32,447 --> 00:32:35,649
- Doctor...
- It's not your family that's still there.
531
00:32:35,825 --> 00:32:37,947
My family's there.
532
00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:41,363
- If the procedure isn't successful...
- Nothing will happen to them.
533
00:32:41,538 --> 00:32:43,531
- Sir...
- Nothing will happen to them.
534
00:32:43,749 --> 00:32:45,373
Who's making that guarantee?
535
00:32:46,084 --> 00:32:48,575
Well, the Swiss, I guess.
536
00:32:48,795 --> 00:32:54,251
Look, I'll use every power of the office
to protect you and your family.
537
00:32:54,425 --> 00:32:57,675
But can I just say that this
is how things change for the better.
538
00:32:57,886 --> 00:33:00,721
A world-class surgeon
or a school teacher in Afjah...
539
00:33:00,889 --> 00:33:04,092
...who questions
the ayatollah's divine power.
540
00:33:04,851 --> 00:33:07,556
Do me a favor, go to Smith-Lansing
and look at the kid...
541
00:33:07,729 --> 00:33:11,180
...because I think when you do,
you're gonna scrub up.
542
00:33:11,399 --> 00:33:15,811
If you don't, I respect that,
and the man made his own bed. Okay?
543
00:33:18,489 --> 00:33:20,362
Yeah.
544
00:33:22,367 --> 00:33:25,154
What was your father's name?
545
00:33:25,328 --> 00:33:27,486
- Raji.
- What'd he teach?
546
00:33:27,664 --> 00:33:31,495
- Science.
- Thank you.
547
00:33:32,043 --> 00:33:34,284
Get him to Baltimore.
548
00:33:50,726 --> 00:33:53,348
- You think his cell phone?
- Not white-water rafting.
549
00:33:53,521 --> 00:33:55,098
And staff can't make those calls.
550
00:33:55,689 --> 00:33:57,978
They're top-tier lowa people
and New Hampshire.
551
00:33:58,150 --> 00:34:01,020
Forty, 50 calls from the Flathead River?
552
00:34:01,236 --> 00:34:04,356
That really doesn't seem possible.
553
00:34:06,074 --> 00:34:08,481
- Unless...
- That's what I'm saying.
554
00:34:08,952 --> 00:34:10,494
All right, I'll take it.
555
00:34:11,287 --> 00:34:12,947
C.E.Q.
556
00:34:14,039 --> 00:34:17,491
- What do I tell Triplehorn?
- Tell him it's done.
557
00:34:18,961 --> 00:34:21,878
- You're sure?
- Thank you, no, I...
558
00:34:22,047 --> 00:34:25,830
They're playing the Eagles.
We're talking 50-yard line.
559
00:34:27,010 --> 00:34:29,002
Toby?
560
00:34:29,178 --> 00:34:31,800
You can't have the job.
561
00:34:33,641 --> 00:34:35,966
Okay.
562
00:34:36,143 --> 00:34:39,843
The Parks Bill, we made it
Senate-confirmable.
563
00:34:40,022 --> 00:34:43,604
- That's the first I've heard...
- They added it in conference.
564
00:34:44,526 --> 00:34:48,393
- Well, we'll find something.
- Oh, you don't have to do that.
565
00:34:48,613 --> 00:34:52,396
Can't be Museum Studies. God forbid
the Senate falls out of the mix on that.
566
00:34:53,159 --> 00:34:57,571
I've made a lot of enemies
on the Hill. You don't owe me.
567
00:34:58,288 --> 00:35:00,957
We asked you to fight a losing...
568
00:35:01,792 --> 00:35:03,784
Yes, we owe you.
569
00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:09,832
- This is when the president calls a play...
- I called the play.
570
00:35:10,007 --> 00:35:11,715
I called it.
571
00:35:13,094 --> 00:35:15,419
Raising the gas tax?
572
00:35:15,596 --> 00:35:19,676
It was a loser, and I pushed
to have you introduce it anyway.
573
00:35:21,184 --> 00:35:23,971
That doesn't make any difference.
574
00:35:25,647 --> 00:35:28,850
- Look, look, let's just...
- I came out for a gas tax...
575
00:35:29,025 --> 00:35:32,109
...because someone
from Michigan had to.
576
00:35:32,278 --> 00:35:35,943
Gas prices are too low.
It's why the air's polluted.
577
00:35:36,115 --> 00:35:39,151
It's why no one
wants alternative fuels.
578
00:35:40,202 --> 00:35:43,950
And clearly that argument
took the nation by storm.
579
00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:50,617
In my religion,
the whole symbol of the religion...
580
00:35:50,795 --> 00:35:53,831
...ended in crucifixion
and condemnation.
581
00:35:55,215 --> 00:35:58,501
That wasn't a measure
of the experience.
582
00:35:59,469 --> 00:36:01,592
It's just the way it ended.
583
00:36:03,181 --> 00:36:05,055
Yeah, but I'm the Romans.
584
00:36:06,768 --> 00:36:08,559
It's in the living.
585
00:36:08,728 --> 00:36:12,891
It's in the campaigning
that you make your mark.
586
00:36:13,107 --> 00:36:16,725
Sometimes you win,
sometimes you lose.
587
00:36:19,613 --> 00:36:24,155
You have until the end of the day
on those tickets, by the way.
588
00:36:38,714 --> 00:36:40,505
- Welcome back.
- Thank you.
589
00:36:40,674 --> 00:36:43,211
- And congratulations.
- Okay.
590
00:36:43,385 --> 00:36:45,756
- Do you know if the president's still in?
- He is.
591
00:36:45,929 --> 00:36:47,755
Thanks.
592
00:37:19,668 --> 00:37:23,582
- Mr. President, can you see Sam?
- Sure.
593
00:37:24,464 --> 00:37:26,871
- Good evening, sir.
- You're the nominee.
594
00:37:27,049 --> 00:37:29,256
There's no nominee.
Everyone's on the ballot.
595
00:37:29,427 --> 00:37:31,300
- Is there another Democrat?
- No.
596
00:37:31,470 --> 00:37:33,593
You're the nominee.
597
00:37:33,764 --> 00:37:36,337
- Yeah.
- And I know how you feel.
598
00:37:36,516 --> 00:37:39,138
- You like Scott Holcomb?
- I don't know him well.
599
00:37:39,352 --> 00:37:40,681
He's terrific.
600
00:37:40,854 --> 00:37:43,345
There's a good guy
out there named Will Bailey...
601
00:37:43,523 --> 00:37:45,396
...if he should come across your radar.
602
00:37:45,608 --> 00:37:47,766
You gonna campaign
on prescription drugs?
603
00:37:47,985 --> 00:37:51,935
Our drug bill, yes, sir. And our Medicare
reforms and the Bartlet Energy Plan.
604
00:37:52,615 --> 00:37:53,943
- Sam?
- Yes, sir?
605
00:37:54,116 --> 00:37:56,488
It's okay to run away from me
when you need to.
606
00:37:56,660 --> 00:38:00,111
I would never, Mr. President.
I simply would never do that.
607
00:38:00,288 --> 00:38:02,660
- That's not how I get votes.
- I appreciate that...
608
00:38:02,832 --> 00:38:05,074
...but that's not
what I'm talking about.
609
00:38:05,251 --> 00:38:08,951
You disagreed with me on Medicare,
I remember the meeting right here...
610
00:38:09,422 --> 00:38:11,877
...and then you wrote
a five-page memo.
611
00:38:12,049 --> 00:38:15,881
Run towards yourself.
I'm wrong about that. Walk.
612
00:38:16,053 --> 00:38:18,674
- You're not used to your surroundings.
- Yes, sir.
613
00:38:18,930 --> 00:38:22,631
If you lose, you lose, but if you waste
this, I'll just kill you, Sam.
614
00:38:22,851 --> 00:38:25,520
- Yes, sir.
- Anything else?
615
00:38:25,686 --> 00:38:28,012
Thank you, Mr. President.
616
00:38:45,955 --> 00:38:48,790
- Good evening, Mr. President.
- Hey.
617
00:38:49,625 --> 00:38:52,116
- Thank-you notes?
- Yeah.
618
00:38:54,463 --> 00:38:56,372
I'm going to bed.
619
00:38:56,548 --> 00:38:59,798
You don't really like making
thank-you calls, do you?
620
00:39:03,638 --> 00:39:05,132
Spill it.
621
00:39:05,306 --> 00:39:07,927
How many precinct captains
did you line up for Hoynes?
622
00:39:08,100 --> 00:39:10,009
- I didn't line up...
- Forty-seven.
623
00:39:10,186 --> 00:39:11,845
Charlie showed me the call sheets.
624
00:39:12,021 --> 00:39:14,855
I said thanks on behalf
of the ticket. I can't help it if...
625
00:39:15,023 --> 00:39:16,482
Yeah.
626
00:39:16,691 --> 00:39:18,067
They'll think what they want.
627
00:39:18,235 --> 00:39:20,108
They think you're freezing
the race for Hoynes.
628
00:39:20,278 --> 00:39:22,851
I'm freezing it for us.
We just won four more years.
629
00:39:23,031 --> 00:39:27,692
- This is not time for a free-for-all.
- This shouldn't be what you do anymore.
630
00:39:34,708 --> 00:39:38,077
- Do I call them all back?
- We'll take care of it.
631
00:39:40,922 --> 00:39:42,914
All right.
632
00:39:50,055 --> 00:39:54,005
Tehran's gonna accelerate medium-range
missile tests by two weeks.
633
00:39:55,018 --> 00:39:57,853
We'll gather the NSC principals
in the morning.
634
00:39:58,021 --> 00:40:00,263
All right. Anything else?
635
00:40:00,940 --> 00:40:06,065
Salman Afkham was wheeled
into surgery 15 minutes ago.
636
00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:11,115
Mohebi's day just started.
637
00:40:12,493 --> 00:40:16,656
Well, I suppose there are worse ways
for ours to end.
638
00:40:18,790 --> 00:40:21,197
Yeah, that's right.
639
