1
00:00:06,141 --> 00:00:07,600
Previously on The West Wing:
2
00:00:07,811 --> 00:00:09,187
Fill my office with bicycles.
3
00:00:09,355 --> 00:00:11,729
Cover the windows
with Seaborn posters.
4
00:00:11,942 --> 00:00:15,148
You can bring in 101 dalmatians.
I'm focused on what I'm doing.
5
00:00:15,365 --> 00:00:17,109
- Who are you?
- You're Bill Bailey, right?
6
00:00:17,285 --> 00:00:19,777
Will Bailey, yeah.
I'm with Toby on the inauguration.
7
00:00:19,956 --> 00:00:21,285
I know who you are.
What do you need?
8
00:00:21,458 --> 00:00:24,164
Nancy McNally has a new military aide
named Jack Reese.
9
00:00:24,338 --> 00:00:26,794
We've talked a few times.
Ask him if he likes me.
10
00:00:26,967 --> 00:00:28,343
The pilot on Shareef's Gulfstream.
11
00:00:28,511 --> 00:00:31,051
- What do you think I'm gonna say?
- His name was Jamil Bari.
12
00:00:31,266 --> 00:00:32,809
You know something, General Cho?
13
00:00:32,977 --> 00:00:36,395
If you had a story, you'd write it.
If you don't have one, shut up.

15
00:00:54,053 --> 00:00:55,929
- Morning.
- Why are they talking to me...
16
00:00:56,098 --> 00:00:59,101
...about the balls?
- Political Affairs thinks it's important.
17
00:00:59,270 --> 00:01:03,485
Start with the Plains States, followed by
the Rust Belt and the Pacific Northwest.
18
00:01:03,652 --> 00:01:07,320
- Shows you're president of the country.
- Aren't we about to demonstrate that?
19
00:01:07,492 --> 00:01:10,164
- He could start with New Hampshire.
- Where he came from.
20
00:01:10,331 --> 00:01:11,660
He has a driver's license.
21
00:01:11,833 --> 00:01:14,159
What if he starts where
jobs are in decline?
22
00:01:14,337 --> 00:01:16,248
Make it clear our message
is the economy.
23
00:01:16,423 --> 00:01:20,376
Well, that's only gonna be clearer if we
also hand out decoder rings. Listen...
24
00:01:20,556 --> 00:01:23,048
...it's an inauguration ball.
Let's enjoy ourselves.
25
00:01:23,226 --> 00:01:24,556
- Yes, sir.
- Thanks.
26
00:01:24,729 --> 00:01:27,934
- Knock them dead, sir.
- Actually, it's eight inauguration balls.
27
00:01:28,110 --> 00:01:30,104
- You read it?
- Every draft, all night long.
28
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:32,439
You haven't weighed in.
29
00:01:35,246 --> 00:01:36,576
I just did.
30
00:01:36,749 --> 00:01:38,708
- Anything else, sir?
- No.
31
00:01:39,420 --> 00:01:43,087
- Eat them up, chief.
- Thank you, Claudia.
32
00:01:51,357 --> 00:01:53,730
Go get them, sir.
33
00:01:54,946 --> 00:01:57,521
- Josh.
- It's leaked.
34
00:01:57,700 --> 00:01:59,030
How much?
35
00:01:59,202 --> 00:02:01,742
They know there's a restatement
of foreign objectives...
36
00:02:01,916 --> 00:02:05,121
...committee chairmen haven't been
consulted, it changed overnight.
37
00:02:05,296 --> 00:02:08,215
Well, their curiosity will be
slaked in about 41 minutes.
38
00:02:08,385 --> 00:02:10,212
Listen. I have a problem.
39
00:02:10,429 --> 00:02:13,302
You're proposing the most
massive shift in foreign policy...
40
00:02:13,476 --> 00:02:16,313
...since the Marshall Plan.
It's gonna be wildly unpopular.
41
00:02:17,024 --> 00:02:18,685
- All right. Two problems.
- Yes, sir.
42
00:02:18,860 --> 00:02:20,901
- I don't have a Bible.
- What do you mean?
43
00:02:21,072 --> 00:02:24,110
I kept changing my mind on
which Bible I wanted to use...
44
00:02:24,286 --> 00:02:26,660
...and I settled on
the George Washington Bible...
45
00:02:26,832 --> 00:02:30,167
...but we ran into a problem
with the New York Freemasons.
46
00:02:30,338 --> 00:02:31,666
- The Freemasons?
- Yeah.
47
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,130
Charlie's hunting one down,
but he's not back.
48
00:02:34,887 --> 00:02:37,925
There's nothing that says you
have to be sworn in on a Bible.
49
00:02:38,100 --> 00:02:41,472
- Is that true?
- You can do it on Sports Illustrated.
50
00:02:41,648 --> 00:02:43,309
- You think that's a good idea?
- No.
51
00:02:43,484 --> 00:02:44,861
- You sure?
- I'll find Charlie.
52
00:02:45,070 --> 00:02:46,814
- Thanks.
- We're right next to you.
53
00:02:46,990 --> 00:02:49,530
- Knock them all down.
- Thank you, sir.
54
00:02:51,247 --> 00:02:53,537
Go get them, sir.
55
00:02:53,710 --> 00:02:55,454
- Nice suit.
- Leo.
56
00:02:55,629 --> 00:02:58,086
Can you tell me about what
happened to Jack Reese?
57
00:02:58,259 --> 00:03:01,380
The president asked for a
Force Depletion Report under the radar.
58
00:03:01,555 --> 00:03:02,885
- On Kundu?
- Yeah.
59
00:03:03,059 --> 00:03:05,633
- And someone found out.
- Hutchinson. It was my fault.
60
00:03:05,813 --> 00:03:07,807
- Which doesn't excuse...
- I don't excuse it.
61
00:03:07,983 --> 00:03:11,318
I don't know how she could do that.
I don't wanna talk about it now...
62
00:03:11,489 --> 00:03:13,364
...but could her timing
have been worse?
63
00:03:13,534 --> 00:03:15,077
I told her all that.
64
00:03:15,245 --> 00:03:17,572
- I'll be telling it to her too.
- She knows.
65
00:03:17,749 --> 00:03:19,659
- Good.
- She's not here.
66
00:03:19,877 --> 00:03:22,335
I can't find her.
I don't think she's coming.
67
00:03:22,507 --> 00:03:25,213
I'll find out where Charlie is.
68
00:03:27,766 --> 00:03:29,095
- Leo.
- Yes, sir.
69
00:03:29,268 --> 00:03:32,936
You've been underground, but there's
a rumor the president's contemplating...
70
00:03:33,108 --> 00:03:34,768
...a new doctrine for use of force.
71
00:03:34,944 --> 00:03:36,938
He's nothing if not
contemplative, senator.
72
00:03:37,115 --> 00:03:39,607
The man makes the Prince of Denmark
seem reactionary.
73
00:03:39,786 --> 00:03:42,360
- He's gonna talk about it.
- He's commander in chief.
74
00:03:42,540 --> 00:03:45,115
He's gonna reserve the right to,
you know, command.
75
00:03:45,294 --> 00:03:47,454
Get yourself some punch.
76
00:03:48,424 --> 00:03:49,754
- Leo.
- Mr. Leader.
77
00:03:49,927 --> 00:03:52,634
- The Hill's gonna go crazy.
- A refreshing change of pace.
78
00:03:52,806 --> 00:03:55,561
I've assured members the White House
won't act without us.
79
00:03:55,728 --> 00:03:59,100
Then you're all set.
There's cheese over there.
80
00:04:01,947 --> 00:04:03,442
- Hello.
- Hi.
81
00:04:03,617 --> 00:04:05,943
I saw the dress that
Abbey's wearing tonight.
82
00:04:06,121 --> 00:04:08,743
Yeah, I may need to get a room.
83
00:04:08,917 --> 00:04:10,911
- You know it's leaked?
- No kidding?
84
00:04:11,087 --> 00:04:15,170
Already, three people have reminded me
what Jefferson said in his inaugural.
85
00:04:15,344 --> 00:04:18,431
"Peace, commerce, honest
friendship with all nations...
86
00:04:18,599 --> 00:04:20,677
...and entangling alliances with none."
87
00:04:20,853 --> 00:04:24,474
But when he said it, your best chance
of getting entangled with an ally...
88
00:04:24,651 --> 00:04:25,981
...was by rowboat.
- Yeah.
89
00:04:26,153 --> 00:04:29,240
- Charlie's here.
- Sir.
90
00:04:29,409 --> 00:04:31,699
- Thank you.
- Yes, sir.
91
00:04:32,665 --> 00:04:34,623
- Donnie's Motel?
- Yes, sir.
92
00:04:34,793 --> 00:04:38,045
- They didn't have one in the library?
- This is from the library.
93
00:04:38,716 --> 00:04:41,470
- Okay.
- Mr. President.
94
00:04:42,430 --> 00:04:43,760
Mr. Chief Justice.
95
00:05:30,093 --> 00:05:32,632
The chief justice will say
to raise your right hand...
96
00:05:32,805 --> 00:05:35,761
...and place your left hand on the Bible.
- What do I do then?
97
00:05:35,936 --> 00:05:38,428
Raise your right hand
and put your left on the Bible.
98
00:05:40,777 --> 00:05:44,113
And will there be someone who will
tell me when it's time to do that?
99
00:05:45,285 --> 00:05:46,614
- You mock me?
- I do.
100
00:05:46,787 --> 00:05:49,113
- May I continue to?
- Yes, sir.
101
00:05:49,291 --> 00:05:51,498
Can we pull foreign policy
up on the prompter?
102
00:05:51,712 --> 00:05:55,664
One-forty-four on the prompter, please.
It's gonna take a second.
103
00:05:57,346 --> 00:05:58,924
What's going on?
104
00:05:59,975 --> 00:06:04,391
The chief justice wrote a dissenting
opinion in Sea Northern v. Arizona...
105
00:06:04,566 --> 00:06:06,893
...saying that an association
between asbestos...
106
00:06:07,070 --> 00:06:11,486
...and a higher risk of cancer in later life
was insufficient to merit relief.
107
00:06:11,662 --> 00:06:13,072
So what?
108
00:06:13,247 --> 00:06:15,325
He...
109
00:06:16,670 --> 00:06:19,079
I don't know how to say it.
He wrote it in a meter.
110
00:06:19,257 --> 00:06:21,251
- A meter.
- He wrote a dissenting opinion...
111
00:06:21,427 --> 00:06:24,549
...in what I'm almost certain
is trochaic tetrameter.
112
00:06:24,724 --> 00:06:26,718
- Will?
- It is.
113
00:06:26,937 --> 00:06:29,855
- What are you talking about?
- He starts in the fourth graph.
114
00:06:35,701 --> 00:06:40,366
"Fear of cancer from asbestos,
fuzzy science manifestos."
115
00:06:40,542 --> 00:06:42,916
- A guy just faxed this to Will.
- Which one's Will?
116
00:06:43,088 --> 00:06:44,417
He is.
117
00:06:44,591 --> 00:06:48,341
It's a loud syllable followed by a soft
syllable which is a trochaic foot...
118
00:06:48,514 --> 00:06:50,923
...and there's four per comma,
which is tetrameter.
119
00:06:51,143 --> 00:06:53,184
Is he telling us something through code?
120
00:06:53,898 --> 00:06:56,520
One-forty-four is on the prompter.
121
00:06:56,902 --> 00:07:00,154
"America cannot be the world's
policeman. America cannot enforce...
122
00:07:00,325 --> 00:07:03,412
...its own values, its own
standards across the world.
123
00:07:03,580 --> 00:07:06,952
Yet, when it's in our clear
and vital interests..."
124
00:07:07,879 --> 00:07:09,209
We're being candid at least.
125
00:07:09,423 --> 00:07:12,261
- This is State Department language.
- No kidding. Look...
126
00:07:12,428 --> 00:07:15,764
...I understand I present a uniform gap,
but I wanna mean what I say.
127
00:07:15,976 --> 00:07:19,845
Will, you're gonna meet my counterpart,
State's communications director.
128
00:07:20,024 --> 00:07:22,102
He likes to have input
into policy language.
129
00:07:22,362 --> 00:07:24,900
Won't he be insulted that
he's meeting with someone...
130
00:07:25,074 --> 00:07:26,902
...who isn't a White House staffer?
131
00:07:27,077 --> 00:07:28,952
- I would really think so.
- That's all.
132
00:07:29,122 --> 00:07:30,831
Thank you.
133
00:07:33,588 --> 00:07:35,380
The chief justice wrote a poem.
134
00:07:35,550 --> 00:07:37,627
He wants the court to adopt
powdered wigs.
135
00:07:37,803 --> 00:07:39,762
- What do you mean?
- Exactly what I said.
136
00:07:39,932 --> 00:07:42,341
- Powdered wigs?
- Like the British magistrates.
137
00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:44,347
I think there might be a problem.
138
00:07:44,523 --> 00:07:47,525
- Think he's stayed too long at the fair?
- He's not a young man.
139
00:07:47,695 --> 00:07:49,902
- Neither am I.
- This is what I'm talking about.
140
00:07:50,074 --> 00:07:52,151
This foreign policy language
is ridiculous.
141
00:07:52,327 --> 00:07:54,570
- It'll get fixed.
- What's going on in Kundu?
142
00:07:54,748 --> 00:07:56,991
- Yeah.
- I got a security cable this morning...
143
00:07:57,169 --> 00:08:01,335
...about civil unrest in the Republic of
Equatorial Kundu and had to get an atlas.
144
00:08:01,551 --> 00:08:03,461
- Near the lvory Coast.
- I know that now.
145
00:08:03,638 --> 00:08:05,715
The government forces run
by the Arkutu...
146
00:08:05,892 --> 00:08:08,348
...have apparently killed as
many as 200 Induye...
147
00:08:08,521 --> 00:08:10,847
...on the streets of Bitanga,
the capital.
148
00:08:11,025 --> 00:08:13,315
- Two warring tribes?
- No, one tribe's warring.
149
00:08:13,488 --> 00:08:14,947
The other is getting killed.
150
00:08:15,115 --> 00:08:18,154
But the point is we've got about
500 American missionaries.
151
00:08:18,328 --> 00:08:21,000
- They're being evacuated?
- Yes, sir.
152
00:08:21,167 --> 00:08:22,876
Okay. Thank you.
153
00:08:25,131 --> 00:08:27,422
- Mr. President, I'm sorry to bother you.
- Yeah.
154
00:08:27,594 --> 00:08:29,801
If you wanna use
the George Washington Bible...
155
00:08:29,973 --> 00:08:31,967
...they need time to send it.
- From where?
156
00:08:32,184 --> 00:08:34,475
The Freemasons have
the Washington Bible.
157
00:08:34,647 --> 00:08:36,641
- They need several days' notice?
- Yes, sir.
158
00:08:36,818 --> 00:08:38,147
- Why?
- I don't know, sir.
159
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:41,192
- Are they not sure where it is?
- Are you using it?
160
00:08:41,367 --> 00:08:43,278
I'm gonna be using the Bartlet Bible.
161
00:08:43,453 --> 00:08:45,662
That's at the New Hampshire
Historical Society.
162
00:08:45,832 --> 00:08:47,162
Yes, sir.
163
00:08:49,339 --> 00:08:51,463
- Yes?
- Sir, just to be clear...
164
00:08:51,633 --> 00:08:54,173
...you're hoping there can
be a broader definition...
165
00:08:54,347 --> 00:08:56,590
...of"vital interests"?
- Hoping beyond hope.
166
00:08:56,767 --> 00:08:58,678
Thank you, sir.
167
00:09:01,692 --> 00:09:06,571
There's a partnership that can develop
between someone and his speechwriter.
168
00:09:06,867 --> 00:09:10,036
It happens over time. You get to
know where he likes his commas...
169
00:09:10,248 --> 00:09:13,453
...and why he says"self-government"
instead of"government."
170
00:09:13,670 --> 00:09:17,372
Why he doesn't like"implement"
but does like the word"obfuscate."
171
00:09:18,052 --> 00:09:19,382
Like jazz musicians...
172
00:09:19,555 --> 00:09:22,392
I can't remember your name,
but are you asking me on a date?
173
00:09:22,810 --> 00:09:25,219
No, sir. It happens over time.
174
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:28,858
- Okay.
- Thank you, Mr. President.
175
00:09:32,368 --> 00:09:34,991
Charlie, do you know if
the New Hampshire statehouse...
176
00:09:35,164 --> 00:09:36,956
...has Governor Bartlet's statements?
177
00:09:37,125 --> 00:09:38,918
- They do.
- Could you help me get them?
178
00:09:39,086 --> 00:09:41,081
Yeah, it's not a problem.
179
00:09:42,551 --> 00:09:44,960
And copies of his floor speeches
from the House?
180
00:09:45,222 --> 00:09:47,465
I can also send people
to the library and get...
181
00:09:47,684 --> 00:09:49,096
Everything he's ever said?
182
00:09:49,312 --> 00:09:51,140
- Yeah.
- Thank you.
183
00:09:51,357 --> 00:09:53,351
- Yeah?
- Tickets came.
184
00:09:53,527 --> 00:09:54,904
- For?
- The balls.
185
00:09:55,072 --> 00:09:56,865
Could you hang on to mine
till Sunday?
186
00:09:57,033 --> 00:09:58,694
- Yeah.
- Thanks.
187
00:09:58,911 --> 00:10:01,119
You know what Jack will be wearing?
188
00:10:01,958 --> 00:10:05,543
- A saber.
- Please tell me it's not all he's wearing.
189
00:10:05,715 --> 00:10:07,958
No. He'll be wearing his dress blues.
190
00:10:08,135 --> 00:10:09,927
Warfare pin, submarine officer pin...
191
00:10:10,097 --> 00:10:12,671
...two commendation medals,
meritorious unit...
192
00:10:12,851 --> 00:10:15,558
...Purple Heart, Bronze Cross
and a saber.
193
00:10:15,731 --> 00:10:18,402
I'll be wearing a tuxedo from Gary's.
194
00:10:18,569 --> 00:10:21,691
- Who's been on the phone?
- People from the State Department.
195
00:10:21,866 --> 00:10:25,201
They decided to change the language
20 minutes ago. How do they know?
196
00:10:25,372 --> 00:10:28,493
They want to know why their director
was asked to meet with Will.
197
00:10:28,669 --> 00:10:31,838
The president's asked Toby and Will
to look at the language.
198
00:10:32,007 --> 00:10:33,337
Okay.
199
00:10:33,510 --> 00:10:36,347
Keep the president out of it.
I've asked them to look at it.
200
00:10:36,516 --> 00:10:38,011
- All right.
- Thanks.
201
00:10:41,691 --> 00:10:44,444
Thirteen buttons on the trousers.
202
00:10:44,987 --> 00:10:46,946
I don't wanna know how you know that.
203
00:10:52,292 --> 00:10:55,994
Heavenly Father, assist with your spirit
of counsel and fortitude...
204
00:10:56,173 --> 00:10:58,083
...the president of the United States...
205
00:10:58,259 --> 00:11:01,547
...that his administration may be
conducted in righteousness...
206
00:11:01,724 --> 00:11:04,429
...and be eminently useful
to your people...
207
00:11:04,603 --> 00:11:06,514
...over whom he presides.
208
00:11:06,690 --> 00:11:10,275
And we ask this morning
for the safe evacuation...
209
00:11:10,446 --> 00:11:14,613
...of the 500 American missionaries
and their children...
210
00:11:14,786 --> 00:11:17,195
...in the Republic of Equatorial Kundu...
211
00:11:17,374 --> 00:11:19,119
...and for the people of Kundu...
212
00:11:19,294 --> 00:11:21,917
...where horrible violence
has broken out.
213
00:11:22,382 --> 00:11:27,213
We pray to you, who are Lord
our God, forever and ever.
214
00:11:27,391 --> 00:11:30,429
- Amen.
- Amen.
215
00:11:37,449 --> 00:11:40,986
Patrick, you may pray all you wish...
216
00:11:41,413 --> 00:11:45,248
...but thousands upon thousands
of African children will die...
217
00:11:45,421 --> 00:11:47,296
...unless the U.S. intervenes.
218
00:11:47,466 --> 00:11:49,958
Tens of thousands of
Kundunese children...
219
00:11:50,136 --> 00:11:51,846
...and their parents slaughtered.
220
00:11:52,056 --> 00:11:54,845
Well, I don't control
the armed forces, Zake.
221
00:11:55,020 --> 00:11:57,097
No, he was talking to me,
Your Eminence.
222
00:11:57,274 --> 00:12:01,107
Your Excellency, I got a very
sketchy intelligence report...
223
00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:03,987
...on the violence in the capital
about an hour ago.
224
00:12:04,369 --> 00:12:06,943
The violence isn't limited
to Bitanga, sir.
225
00:12:07,123 --> 00:12:09,283
It's spread to the countryside.
226
00:12:09,460 --> 00:12:12,582
- I didn't know that.
- May I ask you something, sir...
227
00:12:12,799 --> 00:12:15,921
...with all due respect, please?
- Yes.
228
00:12:16,137 --> 00:12:20,221
If mass genocide had broken out
in a small European country...
229
00:12:20,395 --> 00:12:25,107
...would your intelligence briefing this
morning have been quite so sketchy?
230
00:12:27,448 --> 00:12:29,241
No.
231
00:12:29,910 --> 00:12:32,238
I join my colleagues in their prayers...
232
00:12:32,414 --> 00:12:36,665
...for the safe evacuation
of the Americans.
233
00:12:43,517 --> 00:12:44,928
Okay, Will, you ready?
234
00:12:45,186 --> 00:12:48,723
This is Assistant Secretary of State
for Public Affairs, Bryce Lilly.
235
00:12:48,943 --> 00:12:50,817
Thank you.
236
00:12:53,074 --> 00:12:55,198
- Mr. Secretary.
- Bailey.
237
00:12:55,370 --> 00:12:58,539
- Will Bailey. Yes, sir.
- You are young.
238
00:12:59,418 --> 00:13:01,911
Thank you. Have a seat, please.
239
00:13:03,007 --> 00:13:04,917
Thank you.
240
00:13:07,764 --> 00:13:09,890
How long have you been
in Public Affairs?
241
00:13:10,060 --> 00:13:11,603
Under the last three presidents.
242
00:13:11,772 --> 00:13:13,647
- For both parties?
- Know the difference?
243
00:13:13,817 --> 00:13:17,104
Republicans want a huge military
but don't want to send it anywhere.
244
00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:21,744
The Democrats want a small military
and they want to send it everywhere.
245
00:13:21,955 --> 00:13:24,328
- I've heard that.
- When I heard the name Bailey...
246
00:13:24,501 --> 00:13:26,328
...I got a chill in my occipital.
247
00:13:26,504 --> 00:13:30,968
A Pavlovian reaction from when I used to
have run-ins with a General Tom Bailey...
248
00:13:31,136 --> 00:13:33,511
...at the home store in Brussels.
249
00:13:33,808 --> 00:13:36,135
- Any relation?
- A little bit. He's my father.
250
00:13:36,938 --> 00:13:39,395
- Really?
- Yes, sir.
251
00:13:39,568 --> 00:13:42,689
- How long have you been with the NSC?
- I'm not.
252
00:13:42,864 --> 00:13:44,775
How long have you been
White House staff?
253
00:13:44,951 --> 00:13:48,157
I'm not that either. I'm on
a three-week contract with the DNC...
254
00:13:48,374 --> 00:13:50,866
...to work on the inauguration speech.
- Son...
255
00:13:51,045 --> 00:13:53,537
...I'm Assistant Secretary...
- For Public Affairs...
256
00:13:53,757 --> 00:13:56,084
...which makes you the person
I need to speak to.
257
00:13:56,261 --> 00:13:59,099
The president is troubled by
some of the language State's...
258
00:13:59,267 --> 00:14:01,142
Then this should be between
Toby and I.
259
00:14:01,353 --> 00:14:05,188
- Toby's asked me to speak to you.
- What are the concerns?
260
00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:08,232
"America stands alone as
the indispensable nation...
261
00:14:08,407 --> 00:14:12,241
...a force for peace, freedom and
prosperity on all corners of the globe."
262
00:14:12,413 --> 00:14:14,323
But that's almost exactly
what we wrote.
263
00:14:14,542 --> 00:14:17,330
That is what you wrote,
I'm quoting State Department text.
264
00:14:17,505 --> 00:14:19,333
You memorized it? It was 1200 words.
265
00:14:19,508 --> 00:14:21,882
- I'm pretty sure it was 1123.
- What's his concern?
266
00:14:22,054 --> 00:14:23,383
I suppose, to begin with...
267
00:14:23,557 --> 00:14:26,762
...and this is neither here nor there,
globes don't have corners.
268
00:14:26,979 --> 00:14:31,145
- If this is about style and not substance...
- No, it's about substance.
269
00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:33,360
We've been over this
before you got here...
270
00:14:33,531 --> 00:14:38,778
...and I imagine we'll keep going over it
long after your three weeks are done.
271
00:14:38,957 --> 00:14:42,957
This White House has to be careful about
the use of force, it's a hostile Congress.
272
00:14:43,131 --> 00:14:47,047
Personally, I'd have no problem using
force on Congress but that's not my call.
273
00:14:47,262 --> 00:14:50,598
He can't write himself a blank check
when it comes to foreign policy.
274
00:14:51,269 --> 00:14:54,142
Especially this president.
275
00:14:54,608 --> 00:14:58,857
-"Especially this president."
- That's right.
276
00:14:59,032 --> 00:15:00,907
Because of the clause in Article 1...
277
00:15:01,077 --> 00:15:04,745
...that says not every president gets
the full powers of commander in chief.
278
00:15:05,626 --> 00:15:07,620
- Are you rewriting the section?
- Yes, sir.
279
00:15:07,838 --> 00:15:10,462
- Dramatically?
- I like to think I have a certain flair.
280
00:15:10,676 --> 00:15:12,088
I meant significantly.
281
00:15:12,304 --> 00:15:15,011
- It's what he's looking for.
- In consultation with State?
282
00:15:15,225 --> 00:15:18,098
- That's entirely up to Toby.
- Thank you, sir.
283
00:15:18,814 --> 00:15:21,853
Apparently, I'm not done
with the Baileys.
284
00:15:23,989 --> 00:15:26,198
Apparently not, you effete...
285
00:15:35,133 --> 00:15:37,804
- What are you doing?
- I throw a ball against the window.
286
00:15:37,972 --> 00:15:39,300
That means you come to me.
287
00:15:39,474 --> 00:15:43,141
As my frustration grows, so does the
velocity of the ball against the window.
288
00:15:43,313 --> 00:15:45,023
- I just told Bryce Lilly.
- Good.
289
00:15:45,191 --> 00:15:47,684
- What's in there?
- Did you ask for transcripts...
290
00:15:47,862 --> 00:15:51,031
...of public remarks from Manchester?
That's what they are.
291
00:15:51,202 --> 00:15:53,907
- And the 14 other cartons outside.
- Okay.
292
00:15:54,248 --> 00:15:57,370
- So we're dumping State's language.
- Yes.
293
00:15:57,546 --> 00:16:00,584
- Which means we'll need our own.
- Yes.
294
00:16:00,801 --> 00:16:04,053
I'm talking to myself, so there's
no reason for you to be answering.
295
00:16:04,264 --> 00:16:06,971
Is there a reason for me
to be standing here?
296
00:16:07,145 --> 00:16:08,937
No.
297
00:16:15,658 --> 00:16:17,034
- Sir?
- Yeah?
298
00:16:17,203 --> 00:16:20,740
Mr. Cravenly, director of special
collections at the Historical Society...
299
00:16:20,917 --> 00:16:22,578
...phoned about the Bartlet Bible.
300
00:16:22,754 --> 00:16:24,297
- And?
- You can't use it.
301
00:16:26,259 --> 00:16:29,511
- I can't?
- It needs to be in a vault or it warps.
302
00:16:29,724 --> 00:16:31,385
Just as the disciples intended.
303
00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:34,896
- He suggested the Jefferson Bible.
- The Jefferson Bible doesn't warp?
304
00:16:35,107 --> 00:16:37,434
Being from New Hampshire,
he just didn't care.
305
00:16:37,653 --> 00:16:40,905
Probably. Speaking of New Hampshire,
don't I own the Bartlet Bible?
306
00:16:41,076 --> 00:16:43,236
- It was sold at auction.
- I know. I bought it.
307
00:16:43,454 --> 00:16:45,828
And you donated it
to the Historical Society.
308
00:16:46,041 --> 00:16:48,796
And they won't loan it back
so that I can be inaugurated?
309
00:16:48,963 --> 00:16:52,584
- Mr. Cravenly felt bad about that.
- Yeah.
310
00:16:52,761 --> 00:16:55,883
His name is really Mr. Cravenly?
You're not making that up?
311
00:16:56,058 --> 00:16:58,812
- No, sir. Bertram Cravenly.
- Okay, would you tell him...
312
00:16:58,980 --> 00:17:02,186
...that I'd like very much
to use my family's Bible...
313
00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:04,688
...which my family has bought
at least twice now.
314
00:17:04,906 --> 00:17:06,532
Yes, sir.
315
00:17:07,953 --> 00:17:10,659
A couple hundred people
got killed today in Kundu.
316
00:17:10,875 --> 00:17:13,747
- I saw, Mr. President.
- The Arkutu control the government.
317
00:17:13,922 --> 00:17:15,831
- They're killing...
- Yeah, I saw.
318
00:17:16,008 --> 00:17:18,583
- The Americans got out?
- I'm sorry?
319
00:17:18,762 --> 00:17:21,136
- We got the Americans out?
- Yeah.
320
00:17:22,602 --> 00:17:24,929
- Anything else, sir?
- No.
321
00:17:25,106 --> 00:17:27,017
Thank you, sir.
322
00:17:28,904 --> 00:17:30,566
Yeah.
323
00:17:31,701 --> 00:17:35,618
- Ask Bob Slattery to come over here.
- Yes, sir.
324
00:17:36,333 --> 00:17:39,669
The chief justice will ask the president
to raise his right hand...
325
00:17:39,839 --> 00:17:41,963
...and place his left on the Bible.
- C.J.?
326
00:17:42,134 --> 00:17:44,674
- Yeah.
- And what will the president do then?
327
00:17:44,889 --> 00:17:47,216
- Okay. Katie?
- Will the president be asked...
328
00:17:47,435 --> 00:17:48,930
...to swear an oath?
329
00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:51,687
I guess we'll find out
six days from now...
330
00:17:51,859 --> 00:17:54,399
...but thank you to the
Smothers Brothers. Good night.
331
00:17:54,572 --> 00:17:56,566
- Thank you, C.J.
- Thank you, C.J.
332
00:17:59,330 --> 00:18:02,415
- Danny wanted to see you for a second.
- No way.
333
00:18:02,585 --> 00:18:05,541
Stop trying to get us together.
If I wanted, I could have him.
334
00:18:05,715 --> 00:18:08,042
He's still a jackass from
the Foreign Ops vote...
335
00:18:08,219 --> 00:18:10,973
...so tell him I'm getting my hair done.
- It looks great.
336
00:18:11,140 --> 00:18:14,477
There was no way you could tell me
he was right behind me?
337
00:18:14,647 --> 00:18:16,890
- Sorry.
- In here.
338
00:18:19,112 --> 00:18:20,905
- Yes?
- My signal agent's missing.
339
00:18:21,074 --> 00:18:23,911
The cricket player.
I tried his house, phone's disconnected.
340
00:18:24,079 --> 00:18:27,200
The airstrip won't give information,
neither will the landlord...
341
00:18:27,376 --> 00:18:29,370
...except he just signed a new lease.
342
00:18:29,547 --> 00:18:32,085
- How do you know?
- Because I do.
343
00:18:34,597 --> 00:18:39,143
If I help, you'll consider it a favor, not
the White House cooperating with you?
344
00:18:39,354 --> 00:18:41,847
I would never think the White
House was cooperating.
345
00:18:42,025 --> 00:18:44,779
- Thank you.
- Can I just ask?
346
00:18:44,988 --> 00:18:47,397
What is it you'd do, exactly,
to have me?
347
00:18:47,617 --> 00:18:49,161
- Is there anything else?
- No.
348
00:18:49,370 --> 00:18:50,700
Good.
349
00:18:55,756 --> 00:18:58,509
- Sir, Mr. Slattery.
- Yeah.
350
00:18:59,847 --> 00:19:02,173
- Good evening.
- Bobby, what's going on?
351
00:19:02,351 --> 00:19:04,344
Intelligence is thin outside Bitanga.
352
00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:08,735
In fact, the archbishop's network of
clerics is probably as good as it gets.
353
00:19:08,903 --> 00:19:11,110
The Church has better
intelligence than we do?
354
00:19:11,282 --> 00:19:14,985
It's a very small embassy, maybe
10 people, and no agency presence.
355
00:19:15,205 --> 00:19:16,830
- None?
- No, sir.
356
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:18,329
How many are dead right now?
357
00:19:18,502 --> 00:19:20,377
- We have no way of knowing.
- Estimate.
358
00:19:20,547 --> 00:19:22,208
Could be as many as 5000.
359
00:19:27,934 --> 00:19:31,602
Bobby, I don't wanna make noise, but I
wanna see a Force Depletion Report.
360
00:19:31,774 --> 00:19:34,349
I wanna know how many we'd lose
and I wanna do it...
361
00:19:34,570 --> 00:19:38,237
...without going three rounds in the
newspaper with Miles Hutchinson.
362
00:19:38,410 --> 00:19:40,737
Who do we have at the Pentagon
who could do this?
363
00:19:41,457 --> 00:19:43,450
Jack Reese, Nancy's aide.
364
00:19:43,668 --> 00:19:44,998
- You trust him?
- I do.
365
00:19:45,170 --> 00:19:49,503
Tell him I wanna see Force Depletion
on a peacekeeping force in Kundu.
366
00:19:49,679 --> 00:19:52,681
Tell him we'll try to keep it away
from the secretary's office.
367
00:19:52,892 --> 00:19:55,895
He won't need to hear the second part.
You gave him an order.
368
00:19:56,106 --> 00:19:59,108
- Thank you.
- Thank you, Mr. President.
369
00:20:06,039 --> 00:20:08,531
First things first.
We have to learn to pronounce it.
370
00:20:08,710 --> 00:20:10,205
I learned it as"Kuhn-doo."
371
00:20:10,379 --> 00:20:13,252
- The Republic of Equatorial Kundu.
- C.J.?
372
00:20:13,426 --> 00:20:16,631
There are reports the Arkutu government
issued identification tags.
373
00:20:16,807 --> 00:20:18,848
- We don't know.
- Stating if a Kundunese...
374
00:20:19,018 --> 00:20:20,893
...is Arkutu or Induye.
- We don't know.
375
00:20:21,272 --> 00:20:22,649
- Danny.
- Archbishop Kintaka...
376
00:20:22,816 --> 00:20:25,939
...who was in the White House
for a prayer breakfast yesterday...
377
00:20:26,113 --> 00:20:28,606
...said the government's
using radio to direct mobs.
378
00:20:28,785 --> 00:20:30,945
- Does the White House know anything?
- I don't.
379
00:20:31,121 --> 00:20:35,253
One of the Bishops had provided refuge
to about 800 Induye in his church.
380
00:20:35,420 --> 00:20:38,923
When the radio station in Bitanga
heard about it, they directed a mob.
381
00:20:39,218 --> 00:20:41,842
They had machetes,
they sent them to the church...
382
00:20:42,015 --> 00:20:44,008
- Did they...?
- They hacked up all 800.
383
00:20:44,393 --> 00:20:47,017
- No, I didn't know that.
- Every broadcast ends...
384
00:20:47,232 --> 00:20:48,941
...with the word"Krawala."
385
00:20:49,778 --> 00:20:52,104
- It means"cleanse."
- Yeah.
386
00:20:52,282 --> 00:20:55,617
My question is, is the president gonna
send troops to knock this off?
387
00:20:55,830 --> 00:20:58,120
The White House is
monitoring the situation.
388
00:20:58,334 --> 00:21:00,208
- I can tell.
- Katie.
389
00:21:00,379 --> 00:21:01,791
State Department estimates...
390
00:21:02,006 --> 00:21:05,175
...yesterday put the dead at anywhere
between 3000 and 7000.
391
00:21:05,387 --> 00:21:08,094
Are there revised estimates today?
392
00:21:08,266 --> 00:21:10,759
Fifteen thousand. Sheila?
393
00:21:12,732 --> 00:21:14,525
Yep?
394
00:21:14,736 --> 00:21:16,528
What's up?
395
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:19,659
What's up? What are you doing?
396
00:21:19,828 --> 00:21:22,367
Wondering whether the
Nuclear Regulatory Commission...
397
00:21:22,540 --> 00:21:25,876
...really needs $ 100,000 for a
morale improvement program.
398
00:21:26,045 --> 00:21:28,123
It's gotta be a pretty critical
lap dance.
399
00:21:28,926 --> 00:21:31,418
I went down to Jack's office
last night...
400
00:21:31,596 --> 00:21:35,847
...and he was using the NSC lock on the
door, which he never has before.
401
00:21:36,062 --> 00:21:38,555
- Did you knock?
- Yeah.
402
00:21:38,817 --> 00:21:40,609
- And?
- He let me in.
403
00:21:40,820 --> 00:21:42,779
That's a good story.
404
00:21:42,949 --> 00:21:45,905
I wanted to make plans for getting
together around midnight.
405
00:21:46,079 --> 00:21:49,747
He couldn't because it'll be morning
where he needs to talk to some people.
406
00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:51,954
- Donna...
- What's halfway around the world?
407
00:21:52,131 --> 00:21:55,549
Most of the homes and offices of
the people who live on this planet.
408
00:21:55,970 --> 00:21:59,223
He had a fax from the
commander of the Seventh Fleet...
409
00:21:59,392 --> 00:22:02,978
...about forward units in the
North Atlantic and Mediterranean.
410
00:22:03,148 --> 00:22:05,558
What's he doing showing you
a fax from a commander?
411
00:22:05,736 --> 00:22:07,481
Showing off for me.
412
00:22:07,656 --> 00:22:08,985
Fantastic.
413
00:22:09,159 --> 00:22:11,236
He wasn't showing me
a classified intercept.
414
00:22:11,412 --> 00:22:12,872
How do you know?
415
00:22:13,500 --> 00:22:16,537
I don't. He does.
416
00:22:19,342 --> 00:22:22,380
- Is a joint task force being assembled?
- Are you serious?
417
00:22:22,556 --> 00:22:25,808
He's been sealed off for 24 hours,
everything strikes me as strange.
418
00:22:25,978 --> 00:22:28,768
Let it strike you that way.
Find what they mean by...
419
00:22:28,941 --> 00:22:32,193
..."morale improvement program"
so I can get back to actual people.
420
00:22:43,173 --> 00:22:45,880
- Hey, I changed my mind about the Bible.
- Yes, sir.
421
00:22:46,053 --> 00:22:48,926
I don't know. I've never...
422
00:22:49,100 --> 00:22:52,471
- It seems parochial. I hate saying that.
- I understand.
423
00:22:52,647 --> 00:22:56,943
There's a Bible in Massachusetts
that Jonathan Edwards used.
424
00:22:57,113 --> 00:22:58,857
- Let's get that.
- Yes, sir.
425
00:22:59,074 --> 00:23:01,698
- Good morning.
- Grace is but glory begun...
426
00:23:01,912 --> 00:23:05,996
...and glory is but grace perfected.
I made my Bible selection.
427
00:23:06,169 --> 00:23:07,879
Listen to this, please.
428
00:23:08,047 --> 00:23:12,213
The Supreme Court is striking down
the use of prior offenses as a factor...
429
00:23:12,388 --> 00:23:17,552
...in Stiles v. Rhode Island. The chief
justice writes a concurring opinion.
430
00:23:17,731 --> 00:23:21,980
"Guilty or not guilty, past convictions
frustrate the judge who wonders...
431
00:23:22,155 --> 00:23:23,565
...should your fate abate."
432
00:23:23,740 --> 00:23:25,070
It's awkwardly worded.
433
00:23:25,242 --> 00:23:28,329
No, it's not. It's 22 syllables.
434
00:23:28,915 --> 00:23:31,872
- Oh, God.
- Two, four, six, eight.
435
00:23:32,045 --> 00:23:35,251
Two. And it's supposed
to sound like this:
436
00:23:35,427 --> 00:23:39,640
"Guilty or not guilty.
Past convictions frustrate.
437
00:23:39,809 --> 00:23:43,013
The judge who wonders
should your fate abate."
438
00:23:45,401 --> 00:23:48,107
It's a cinquain.
439
00:23:48,406 --> 00:23:50,697
- A what?
- A cinquain.
440
00:23:50,910 --> 00:23:54,115
- How do you know?
- I know things.
441
00:23:54,291 --> 00:23:56,000
I'm worried about the chief justice.
442
00:23:56,211 --> 00:23:58,335
I'm worried about us
making that suggestion.
443
00:23:58,506 --> 00:24:01,295
He's writing in verse,
plus the powdered wigs.
444
00:24:01,469 --> 00:24:02,845
- Wasn't that a rumor?
- Yes.
445
00:24:03,055 --> 00:24:04,883
All right, listen.
446
00:24:05,059 --> 00:24:09,474
I've asked for a Force Depletion
Report on action in Kundu.
447
00:24:10,567 --> 00:24:12,977
- Who'd you ask?
- Slattery got Jack Reese.
448
00:24:13,196 --> 00:24:14,526
What'd it say?
449
00:24:14,699 --> 00:24:17,192
Well, the best scenario is that
simply by engaging...
450
00:24:17,370 --> 00:24:19,910
...the Arkutu lay down weapons.
Doesn't seem likely...
451
00:24:20,083 --> 00:24:21,543
...so we'd lose people.
- Yeah.
452
00:24:21,711 --> 00:24:23,669
More if they go into the countryside.
453
00:24:23,839 --> 00:24:26,167
What do you expect?
454
00:24:26,553 --> 00:24:31,133
- Yeah.
- Toby's working on new policy language.
455
00:24:31,644 --> 00:24:34,136
- I'm sorry?
- Toby's working on...
456
00:24:34,315 --> 00:24:36,558
...new foreign policy language.
- Good.
457
00:24:36,861 --> 00:24:38,772
Can I see the report?
458
00:24:38,947 --> 00:24:40,776
You should.
459
00:24:41,410 --> 00:24:43,203
Thank you.
460
00:24:43,789 --> 00:24:46,792
He led an unsuccessful case
to block federal death penalties...
461
00:24:46,961 --> 00:24:49,038
...as violating
the Equal Protection Clause.
462
00:24:49,215 --> 00:24:51,423
- Why?
- Because federal law applies nowhere...
463
00:24:51,593 --> 00:24:53,504
...but Indian Reservations.
464
00:24:53,889 --> 00:24:56,892
This is the best. Congress will
never create campaign reform...
465
00:24:57,061 --> 00:25:00,396
...since they have to run in elections,
so he proposed legislation...
466
00:25:00,567 --> 00:25:03,439
...to grandfather it in in 30 years.
- What are you doing?
467
00:25:03,613 --> 00:25:07,448
- Familiarizing myself with his tone.
- Not thinking about policy language?
468
00:25:07,662 --> 00:25:09,323
- I'm doing both.
- We have five days.
469
00:25:09,498 --> 00:25:13,499
He knows. And I can confirm that
he's thinking and familiarizing himself.
470
00:25:13,671 --> 00:25:17,008
You're comfortable going through life
with a name like Elsie Snuffin?
471
00:25:17,178 --> 00:25:19,670
I've never been comfortable,
not because of my name.
472
00:25:20,349 --> 00:25:22,842
Will, the idea isn't going to
walk in here...
473
00:25:23,062 --> 00:25:26,065
...announce itself as important
and take a place on the pile.
474
00:25:26,234 --> 00:25:28,442
I understand.
475
00:25:28,613 --> 00:25:31,782
Excuse me, Will? This is from
the Congressional Research Service.
476
00:25:31,993 --> 00:25:35,697
- It's an old speech on foreign policy.
- Why wasn't it in the original?
477
00:25:35,917 --> 00:25:38,789
It was stricken from the record
at the president's request.
478
00:25:38,963 --> 00:25:40,340
Should I place it here?
479
00:25:40,508 --> 00:25:43,048
No, I'll take that.
480
00:25:46,685 --> 00:25:48,014
Yeah.
481
00:26:04,130 --> 00:26:06,540
"America needs a new doctrine
for a new century...
482
00:26:06,717 --> 00:26:10,171
...based not just on our interests
but on our values across the world."
483
00:26:10,348 --> 00:26:14,219
- Define those values for me, please.
- I don't have to. The president has.
484
00:26:14,397 --> 00:26:16,106
"We are for freedom of speech.
485
00:26:16,275 --> 00:26:19,444
Freedom to worship everywhere.
Freedom to learn for every child."
486
00:26:19,614 --> 00:26:24,243
Just out of curiosity, how are you gonna
enforce a universal right to education?
487
00:26:24,414 --> 00:26:27,749
The same way the U.S. enforced
anything it wanted in the 20th century.
488
00:26:27,919 --> 00:26:30,495
- Somebody called our father.
- What are you doing here?
489
00:26:30,673 --> 00:26:32,833
- The first lady likes my jokes.
- Excellent.
490
00:26:33,011 --> 00:26:35,005
"It is our duty to give more
than support.
491
00:26:35,182 --> 00:26:37,888
We must give our strength
diplomatically, materially..."
492
00:26:38,061 --> 00:26:40,814
"And if need be militarily."
I read it 16 years ago.
493
00:26:40,983 --> 00:26:44,520
It was about El Salvador and he had it
stricken and there was a reason.
494
00:26:44,697 --> 00:26:46,240
- What?
- Things have reasons.
495
00:26:46,408 --> 00:26:47,737
- Do they?
- Yes, they do.
496
00:26:47,911 --> 00:26:50,913
Okay, but C.J. this morning
put the body count at 15,000.
497
00:26:51,083 --> 00:26:53,657
You're talking about Kundu?
That's what this is about?
498
00:26:53,879 --> 00:26:55,707
We're talking about everything.
499
00:26:55,882 --> 00:26:58,921
"And freedom from the tyranny
of oppression, economic slavery...
500
00:26:59,096 --> 00:27:02,301
...religious fanaticism." Tell me
if this describes anyone we know.
501
00:27:02,476 --> 00:27:04,636
This isn't what I meant
by new language.
502
00:27:04,856 --> 00:27:07,609
- What did you mean?
- Making the old language sound better!
503
00:27:11,616 --> 00:27:15,569
You're asking the two of us to
create foreign policy by ourselves.
504
00:27:15,748 --> 00:27:17,291
That's usually not a good idea.
505
00:27:17,460 --> 00:27:20,664
You've got your Pentagon,
the NSC and the State Department.
506
00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:24,460
You and Leo McGarry and Josh
are his senior counselors.
507
00:27:24,638 --> 00:27:26,715
It's not like he doesn't
want to go there.
508
00:27:26,934 --> 00:27:29,770
This language proposes a new
doctrine for the use of force.
509
00:27:29,938 --> 00:27:33,274
That we use force whenever we see
an injustice we want to correct.
510
00:27:33,444 --> 00:27:36,862
- Mother Teresa with first strike-ability.
- Damn right!
511
00:27:37,034 --> 00:27:39,870
You've had too many
dinners with daddy.
512
00:27:40,539 --> 00:27:43,957
Please go back to finding new language
for the foreign section.
513
00:27:45,088 --> 00:27:46,583
Yeah, I should.
514
00:27:52,685 --> 00:27:54,809
- I'm only here another four days...
- But what?
515
00:27:54,980 --> 00:27:57,686
He'd do a radio address
proposing free liposuction...
516
00:27:57,860 --> 00:28:00,531
...to every child of woman born
if you wrote it for him.
517
00:28:00,907 --> 00:28:03,945
You're wrong. And if he did,
I'd be fired shortly thereafter.
518
00:28:04,162 --> 00:28:07,864
Maybe. But 10 pounds lighter.
519
00:28:16,098 --> 00:28:18,851
You go back to doing
whatever it is you do.
520
00:28:35,505 --> 00:28:37,713
We'll bring it in and let
the president look.
521
00:28:37,884 --> 00:28:39,629
Very well.
522
00:28:42,224 --> 00:28:43,885
- Hey, is this it?
- Yes, sir.
523
00:28:44,061 --> 00:28:46,767
This is Adam Kent from the
Edwards Historical Foundation.
524
00:28:46,941 --> 00:28:48,317
- Good to meet you.
- We've met.
525
00:28:48,485 --> 00:28:52,187
- Of course.
- And this, sir, is the John Edwards Bible.
526
00:28:52,366 --> 00:28:53,825
- This?
- Yes, sir.
527
00:28:53,994 --> 00:28:56,035
- It's huge.
- Well, it ought to be.
528
00:28:56,206 --> 00:28:58,532
- Actually, it can't be.
- It's a pulpit folio...
529
00:28:58,710 --> 00:29:01,630
...obviously from a time when
portability was not an issue.
530
00:29:01,798 --> 00:29:04,256
And illuminations add pages
as well as heft.
531
00:29:04,427 --> 00:29:06,256
Also, it's written in four languages.
532
00:29:06,431 --> 00:29:08,306
The first lady has to hold this.
533
00:29:08,476 --> 00:29:12,428
This one's gonna take the first lady, the
chief justice and the court of appeals.
534
00:29:12,608 --> 00:29:14,982
Greek, Hebrew, Aramaic and English.
535
00:29:15,278 --> 00:29:16,858
Okay.
536
00:29:17,157 --> 00:29:18,985
- Mr. Carlton?
- Kent.
537
00:29:19,161 --> 00:29:21,735
Sorry. Thanks.
Charlie's gonna take care of you.
538
00:29:21,915 --> 00:29:26,414
Charlie. That's the size of a Volkswagen.
Can we get the Washington Bible?
539
00:29:26,589 --> 00:29:27,918
- Yes, sir.
- Thank you.
540
00:29:28,092 --> 00:29:31,130
Nine hundred hours, we're running
the test of the next Predator.
541
00:29:31,305 --> 00:29:35,306
That's the new night vision capabilities
at Camp Red Cloud in Uijongbu City.
542
00:29:35,479 --> 00:29:39,610
- Okay. Europe?
- Potential Basque terrorist plots in Spain.
543
00:29:39,819 --> 00:29:42,988
- State's gonna issue an alert?
- DCI's liaising with Guardia Civil.
544
00:29:43,159 --> 00:29:45,912
There's a border dispute between
Lithuania and Belarus.
545
00:29:46,121 --> 00:29:48,162
Okay, thanks.
546
00:29:49,293 --> 00:29:51,204
Miles.
547
00:30:01,605 --> 00:30:03,398
What's the general thinking in Kundu?
548
00:30:03,567 --> 00:30:07,782
That we should support all the
international diplomatic efforts to...
549
00:30:08,659 --> 00:30:11,068
The U.N. 's already made
overtures to the Arkutu.
550
00:30:11,288 --> 00:30:14,741
That's at the State Department.
What's happening at Central Command?
551
00:30:15,002 --> 00:30:18,041
Militarily, we're gonna wanna
supply the bordering countries.
552
00:30:18,216 --> 00:30:19,628
That's not what I mean.
553
00:30:20,094 --> 00:30:22,052
We're getting intel
that isn't on CNN...
554
00:30:22,223 --> 00:30:25,808
...but that's a matter of a couple
of hours. Truly. Horrible accounts...
555
00:30:25,979 --> 00:30:30,026
...of mass slaughtering should make us
investigate whether there's a genocide.
556
00:30:30,194 --> 00:30:33,363
Lee lost 10,000 at Gettysburg,
didn't make it genocide.
557
00:30:34,368 --> 00:30:36,362
That's what I'll go to
the president with.
558
00:30:36,579 --> 00:30:38,620
In our case, we'd lose 1000.
Pretty stupid.
559
00:30:39,084 --> 00:30:42,537
Magnificently so when we're talking
about a guy who's never led an army.
560
00:30:42,756 --> 00:30:44,168
A, the guy is the president.
561
00:30:44,343 --> 00:30:47,548
B, he's been leading one for three years,
51 weeks and three days.
562
00:30:47,723 --> 00:30:49,516
How much more training
would you like?
563
00:30:49,685 --> 00:30:53,816
And C, it's not 1000, we saw
a Force Depletion Report, it's 150.
564
00:30:53,984 --> 00:30:55,562
You saw a Force Depletion Report?
565
00:30:58,283 --> 00:31:00,739
- Yes.
- How did he see a Depletion Report?
566
00:31:00,953 --> 00:31:04,824
Look. From time to time,
just to expedite things, Nancy'll print...
567
00:31:05,001 --> 00:31:06,545
Nancy's out of the country.
568
00:31:06,921 --> 00:31:08,880
It was her aide.
569
00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:13,344
- The guy was following a direct order.
- I have no doubt. That's my problem.
570
00:31:13,516 --> 00:31:14,845
- I don't give a damn...
- What?
571
00:31:15,018 --> 00:31:18,270
I said, I don't give a damn
what your problem is, Miles.
572
00:31:18,691 --> 00:31:21,813
The man wants to know if he sends
troops, how many are gonna die.
573
00:31:21,988 --> 00:31:24,196
If he wants to see Force
Depletion, he asks me.
574
00:31:24,367 --> 00:31:28,617
He asked you and three days managed to
go by before he sees it, Mr. Secretary.
575
00:31:28,791 --> 00:31:31,628
Yet, miraculously,
the Wall Street Journal, on day two...
576
00:31:31,796 --> 00:31:35,582
...the numbers inflated all to hell.
It's 150, not 1000.
577
00:31:36,220 --> 00:31:38,510
And that's acceptable to you
in Kundu?
578
00:31:39,267 --> 00:31:43,053
I don't know what you mean
when you say,"in Kundu."
579
00:31:44,943 --> 00:31:46,936
Yeah, I do.
580
00:31:47,154 --> 00:31:49,648
- Go to hell.
- Okay.
581
00:32:16,703 --> 00:32:19,279
Keep your pants on, Toby,
I'm almost there.
582
00:32:19,458 --> 00:32:22,626
Toby been taking his pants off again?
583
00:32:22,839 --> 00:32:24,797
That's just something he does.
584
00:32:26,637 --> 00:32:28,179
- Good evening.
- How's it going?
585
00:32:28,348 --> 00:32:30,341
- Fine, sir.
- Good.
586
00:32:30,518 --> 00:32:32,808
No, it's not.
587
00:32:32,980 --> 00:32:34,356
Yeah.
588
00:32:34,524 --> 00:32:38,311
What's hard is foreign policy's become
a statement of what we won't do.
589
00:32:38,490 --> 00:32:40,650
Yes, sir.
590
00:32:41,119 --> 00:32:44,537
"A new doctrine for a new century,
based not just on our interests...
591
00:32:44,750 --> 00:32:47,836
...but on our values across the world."
That's spicy stuff.
592
00:32:48,005 --> 00:32:50,759
- You wrote it, sir.
- Yeah, I know.
593
00:32:53,765 --> 00:32:58,014
Why is a Kundunese life worth less
to me than an American life?
594
00:32:58,773 --> 00:33:01,265
I don't know, sir, but it is.
595
00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:10,206
- That was ballsy.
- I won't be working here long.
596
00:33:11,544 --> 00:33:15,081
- You Tom Bailey's son?
- Yes, sir.
597
00:33:15,843 --> 00:33:18,762
Talk about the very model
of a modern major general.
598
00:33:18,973 --> 00:33:20,967
Yes, sir.
599
00:33:33,247 --> 00:33:36,368
Ladies and gentlemen,
the briefing is about to begin.
600
00:33:36,627 --> 00:33:39,000
Take your seats, the briefing
is about to begin.
601
00:33:39,173 --> 00:33:40,966
- C.J.
- I found your ramp signal agent.
602
00:33:41,134 --> 00:33:44,886
Me too. He took a job at an airport in
Guyana. That's where you send people?
603
00:33:45,057 --> 00:33:47,182
We don't send anyone
who doesn't work for us.
604
00:33:47,353 --> 00:33:50,605
But he's gotten a salary bump
and he's co-captain of a cricket team.
605
00:33:50,775 --> 00:33:52,151
- I called him.
- And?
606
00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:55,987
He doesn't remember me. Then he does,
but doesn't remember an airstrip.
607
00:33:56,159 --> 00:33:58,449
He does, but he doesn't
remember not getting in.
608
00:33:58,622 --> 00:34:00,615
- Mystery solved.
- C.J.
609
00:34:01,711 --> 00:34:03,787
Come here.
610
00:34:08,471 --> 00:34:13,433
It's been ridiculous since you came back.
Would you mind if I turn off the lights?
611
00:34:14,064 --> 00:34:16,853
- No.
- It's just easier this way.
612
00:34:17,236 --> 00:34:20,987
I've been thinking about what might
have been if it weren't for the conflict.
613
00:34:21,158 --> 00:34:22,488
- Yeah.
- I'm almost over it.
614
00:34:22,662 --> 00:34:25,665
I'm right there and you come back
with your scruffy face...
615
00:34:25,833 --> 00:34:29,703
...and your jokes and your incredible
talent and your way of getting at...
616
00:34:30,466 --> 00:34:32,009
Getting at me.
617
00:34:32,177 --> 00:34:35,595
- And I was thinking, if we could...
- Be adult?
618
00:34:36,476 --> 00:34:39,265
Do you like this perfume?
619
00:34:40,274 --> 00:34:42,102
- Yeah.
- Do you like this blouse?
620
00:34:42,319 --> 00:34:44,609
- What's gotten into you?
- Do you?
621
00:34:46,951 --> 00:34:48,577
Yeah.
622
00:34:51,834 --> 00:34:53,579
Come here.
623
00:35:00,557 --> 00:35:04,474
Remember when you asked me...
624
00:35:04,647 --> 00:35:07,984
...what exactly I'd do to have you?
625
00:35:08,153 --> 00:35:10,064
Yeah.
626
00:35:10,699 --> 00:35:13,026
I'd do that.
627
00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:21,584
C.J.
628
00:35:31,442 --> 00:35:34,528
Good evening.
I have revised estimates for Kundu.
629
00:35:34,697 --> 00:35:36,691
We'd said 15,000 yesterday...
630
00:35:36,868 --> 00:35:41,081
...intelligence reports are putting it
closer to 25. Twenty-five thousand.
631
00:35:41,292 --> 00:35:43,249
- C.J.!
- Mark.
632
00:35:43,420 --> 00:35:46,589
Is the White House being careful
not to call this a genocide?
633
00:35:47,134 --> 00:35:49,129
- Hey.
- Hey. He in?
634
00:35:49,304 --> 00:35:52,261
In a minute.
He's got a security briefing.
635
00:35:52,434 --> 00:35:55,189
- What's that?
- It's a seating chart for the inauguration.
636
00:35:55,356 --> 00:35:57,065
You're sitting in the staff section.
637
00:35:57,234 --> 00:36:00,107
Yeah, I'm looking for someone else.
638
00:36:01,617 --> 00:36:05,699
Would it be weird if I walked around
with a military dress saber?
639
00:36:06,542 --> 00:36:08,167
Okay.
640
00:36:08,420 --> 00:36:12,371
- He's in the security briefing?
- I'll let him know you're here.
641
00:36:12,551 --> 00:36:14,841
Navy dress uniform has
13 buttons on the pants.
642
00:36:15,931 --> 00:36:18,091
Tradition's tradition.
But I'd be concerned...
643
00:36:18,269 --> 00:36:21,604
...about the level of bladder discipline
that requires. Wouldn't you?
644
00:36:22,025 --> 00:36:24,399
- What?
- Nothing.
645
00:36:25,197 --> 00:36:27,108
King Nawa of Bhutan died.
646
00:36:27,451 --> 00:36:29,326
We'll send condolences.
What's next?
647
00:36:29,496 --> 00:36:32,582
- The new king is Yeshey Pradhan Nawa.
- Okay.
648
00:36:32,751 --> 00:36:34,210
He's 13 years old.
649
00:36:34,379 --> 00:36:36,752
If he's old enough to marry
Jerry Lee Lewis...
650
00:36:36,925 --> 00:36:39,844
...I guess he's old enough to be
king of Bhutan. What's next?
651
00:36:40,014 --> 00:36:43,135
A detained ship 12 miles off
the Port of Miami. Nigerian flag.
652
00:36:43,352 --> 00:36:44,682
- Coast Guard got it?
- Yes.
653
00:36:44,854 --> 00:36:48,356
A training exercise has been cleared
for the Black Sea and the Caspian.
654
00:36:48,569 --> 00:36:51,026
- This is...
- I'm sorry. What's happening in the REK?
655
00:36:51,198 --> 00:36:53,572
The General Assembly's
debating a proclamation.
656
00:36:53,744 --> 00:36:56,747
Well, a proclamation ought to
do the trick.
657
00:36:56,916 --> 00:36:58,993
What's the CIA know
that I should know?
658
00:36:59,712 --> 00:37:02,965
Neighbors are swapping
family members.
659
00:37:08,184 --> 00:37:10,179
- All right, thank you.
- Thank you, sir.
660
00:37:10,397 --> 00:37:12,224
Thank you, sir.
661
00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:14,394
- You wanted Josh?
- Yeah. I changed my mind.
662
00:37:14,570 --> 00:37:16,279
- Not the Washington Bible.
- You sure?
663
00:37:16,448 --> 00:37:18,822
- Yeah.
- I'm asking because they need notice.
664
00:37:18,994 --> 00:37:22,199
- Yeah, I'm gonna use my father's.
- Yes, sir.
665
00:37:22,542 --> 00:37:23,871
Good evening, Mr. President.
666
00:37:24,044 --> 00:37:25,504
- You talk to Hutchinson?
- Yeah.
667
00:37:26,006 --> 00:37:29,044
- Tell Josh I'll just be a minute, okay?
- Yes, sir.
668
00:37:29,220 --> 00:37:31,427
Did he tell me to
let him run the Pentagon?
669
00:37:31,974 --> 00:37:33,802
- In so many words.
- How many?
670
00:37:33,977 --> 00:37:37,479
Not that many. As a matter of fact,
we didn't get that far.
671
00:37:37,650 --> 00:37:39,228
I got Jack Reese in some trouble.
672
00:37:39,403 --> 00:37:41,978
So Hutchinson knows
I've seen Force Depletion.
673
00:37:42,575 --> 00:37:45,328
- Yeah.
- He should be pissed at me, not Jack.
674
00:37:45,538 --> 00:37:47,697
He should be pissed at you?
The Secretary...
675
00:37:47,875 --> 00:37:50,546
...should be pissed at the pre...?
- Don't worry about it.
676
00:37:51,047 --> 00:37:54,252
- Right?
- Sure. No problem.
677
00:37:54,678 --> 00:37:56,968
Don't worry about it.
678
00:37:57,600 --> 00:37:59,392
Yes, sir.
679
00:38:00,312 --> 00:38:03,766
Clark says neighbors are swapping
family members in Kundu.
680
00:38:05,697 --> 00:38:07,192
Really?
681
00:38:07,366 --> 00:38:09,324
Also, there's a new king of Bhutan...
682
00:38:09,495 --> 00:38:12,663
...and he's been bar mitzvahed.
- All right.
683
00:38:12,833 --> 00:38:15,206
This guy you hired for
the inauguration speech...
684
00:38:15,379 --> 00:38:17,457
...gave me some backchat
a few minutes ago.
685
00:38:17,675 --> 00:38:20,048
- Bailey?
- Yeah, he was using a floor speech...
686
00:38:20,221 --> 00:38:24,303
...I gave about El Salvador
98 years ago to demonstrate...
687
00:38:24,477 --> 00:38:26,768
...that the U.S. should send
troops to Kundu.
688
00:38:26,940 --> 00:38:28,518
Rhetorically, I said:
689
00:38:28,693 --> 00:38:31,981
"Why is a Kundunese life worth
less to me than an American life"...
690
00:38:32,156 --> 00:38:35,658
...and he said,
"I don't know, sir, but it is."
691
00:38:35,871 --> 00:38:37,996
I'll try to get some better information.
692
00:38:40,379 --> 00:38:43,832
- Thank you.
- Thank you, Mr. President.
693
00:38:45,971 --> 00:38:48,381
- Good evening, Mr. President.
- Hey, Josh.
694
00:38:49,769 --> 00:38:54,149
There's intelligence that Kundunese
neighbors are swapping family members.
695
00:38:54,735 --> 00:38:56,528
I'm sorry, I don't, I don't under...
696
00:38:56,697 --> 00:38:59,534
For the night. They're swapping
family members, you know...
697
00:38:59,702 --> 00:39:01,363
...sleeping in each other's houses.
698
00:39:01,873 --> 00:39:03,914
- Yes, sir.
- What's going on?
699
00:39:04,084 --> 00:39:06,922
- You know, nothing I can't deal with.
- State?
700
00:39:07,381 --> 00:39:09,541
I got off the phone with
Tomlinson and Bibbet.
701
00:39:09,719 --> 00:39:11,048
- Tell them...
- They're under...
702
00:39:11,262 --> 00:39:14,385
They're under the impression that
the policy is being rewritten.
703
00:39:14,602 --> 00:39:17,094
- It's not.
- I know. They just asked me to...
704
00:39:17,273 --> 00:39:21,772
...emphasize the language has been
vetted with members of Armed Services.
705
00:39:21,947 --> 00:39:24,321
- The language is being polished.
- I told them.
706
00:39:24,493 --> 00:39:28,161
They asked me to remind you their
version also reflects existing treaties...
707
00:39:28,375 --> 00:39:30,618
...some of which...
- Have my name on them.
708
00:39:30,795 --> 00:39:35,258
So tell Jeff Tomlinson and Bibby Bob
to take a deep knee bend, would you?
709
00:39:35,428 --> 00:39:37,671
I'm just as big a cotton candy-ass
as they are.
710
00:39:39,101 --> 00:39:41,177
- Yes, sir.
- You're just gonna let that hang?
711
00:39:41,354 --> 00:39:43,847
Of course not. You're a much
bigger cotton candy-ass.
712
00:39:44,067 --> 00:39:46,144
- Damn right.
- Anything else?
713
00:39:46,321 --> 00:39:48,813
- No.
- Thank you, Mr. President.
714
00:39:58,257 --> 00:40:00,832
- What's going on?
- I don't know what's going on...
715
00:40:01,011 --> 00:40:03,505
...but Jack's been reassigned.
716
00:40:04,518 --> 00:40:06,393
- To where?
- Aviano.
717
00:40:06,562 --> 00:40:09,316
- Air Force Base?
- Yes. Aviano Air Force Base.
718
00:40:09,484 --> 00:40:13,021
- When?
- He got his orders.
719
00:40:13,199 --> 00:40:14,575
- What happened?
- I don't know.
720
00:40:14,743 --> 00:40:16,618
He was asked to do
something, he did it.
721
00:40:16,787 --> 00:40:20,124
He got a slap on the wrist and
wouldn't tell me more than that.
722
00:40:20,294 --> 00:40:24,376
The reality of the fast-track Navy guys
is they're gonna bop around a lot.
723
00:40:24,551 --> 00:40:28,301
He was here less than three months,
plus he said something happened.
724
00:40:28,474 --> 00:40:31,845
You can't begin to conceive of
the internal politics at the Pentagon.
725
00:40:32,022 --> 00:40:34,514
- Right now Hutchinson and his boys...
- He worked here.
726
00:40:34,693 --> 00:40:37,730
This is internal politics
of the White House.
727
00:40:38,324 --> 00:40:41,908
Well, no one's told me anything
about it and I'm not gonna ask.
728
00:40:42,079 --> 00:40:44,073
He was asked to do something
for somebody.
729
00:40:44,292 --> 00:40:46,416
It could only be Nancy, Leo
or the president.
730
00:40:46,796 --> 00:40:48,457
Three doors you wanna knock on...
731
00:40:48,632 --> 00:40:51,172
...to complain about your
boyfriend being transferred.
732
00:40:51,345 --> 00:40:53,303
- Hey, I'm not Gidget.
- Is he complaining?
733
00:40:53,474 --> 00:40:56,048
- He doesn't complain.
- I ask you that...
734
00:40:56,228 --> 00:40:58,435
...because sometimes
people request transfers.
735
00:40:59,650 --> 00:41:01,810
Somebody asked him
to do something and he did.
736
00:41:01,987 --> 00:41:05,489
I take him at his word, as should
you, there being no reason not to.
737
00:41:06,495 --> 00:41:08,952
Is there anything you need?
738
00:41:09,792 --> 00:41:12,035
- No.
- Thank you, sir.
739
00:41:19,933 --> 00:41:22,177
Jack Reese got transferred.
740
00:41:22,354 --> 00:41:25,227
Well, I've got my own
Beach Boys song going.
741
00:41:25,401 --> 00:41:27,027
If you've got a crush on Reese...
742
00:41:27,196 --> 00:41:29,688
Jean Pierre is sitting by her
in the friends section.
743
00:41:30,159 --> 00:41:31,654
Zoey's lover?
744
00:41:32,121 --> 00:41:34,874
- It's important you call him that?
- His name is Jean Paul?
745
00:41:35,042 --> 00:41:36,621
- Are we together on this?
- Yes.
746
00:41:36,795 --> 00:41:38,705
Okay.
747
00:41:42,221 --> 00:41:45,758
Intelligence says neighbors in Kundu
are sleeping at each other's houses.
748
00:41:47,396 --> 00:41:49,271
What does that mean?
749
00:41:49,775 --> 00:41:52,611
It means they're making people
in the same house...
750
00:41:52,780 --> 00:41:55,818
...rape each other on the promise
their lives will be spared.
751
00:42:04,590 --> 00:42:06,668
Okay.
752
00:42:08,180 --> 00:42:10,887
- Do you need anything?
- No.
753
00:42:11,305 --> 00:42:17,476
