Previously on The West Wing:

JOSH: You're going on a CODEL to the Middle East

with Fitzwallace and Andy.

No presidential hand-holding.

You're going to see what's going on

and brief me and Toby about it.

What about Donna?!

Three dead so far, sir.

Congressman Desantos and Korb.

And we just got word

Admiral Fitzwallace.

The people responsible will be found

and brought to justice.

It's time to focus on the terrorist elements

who've declared war on us.

What are my other options?

There's the Palestinian Authority.

Chairman Farad?

He's asked for the opportunity

to arrest any suspects identified by the FBI.

He won't treat us like the Israelis.

We have the power to bring him back to the table.

LEO: Sir, the country wants action.

TOBY: Chairman Farad-- he's on TV.

He's thanking us for inviting him

to a summit with the Israelis.

He's publicly accepted our invitation to Camp David.

LEO: I think you're gun-shy, sir.

This may be the most important

mo and you're going to blow it of because you're human.

I'm the guy in the office, Leo.

I'm the one who's going to be judged.

KATE: We can't let Chairman Farad bully us

into hosting a summit, sir.

People at State know, at the Pentagon.no

If we try to force them into hosting a summitw.

they may leak it. That's so bad?

The Chairman wants a peace summit.

He invited himself Isn't that a sto Camp David.

raid the icebox at the Council ong Foreign Relations?

Sir, we need to focus on military action.

Retaliation for the deaths

I've got a guy who says he wants to come to a peace table,

and I'Tell Faradab he can have his summit

if it can double as his retirement party.

What do I need from him to get the Israelis to Camp David?

the leaders of Hamas, He'd put the Palestiniana

security services under Mukarat and the moderates

that gives up that portion of historical Palestine

he's going to recognize as Israel.

Plus the watch?

Mr. President, this way, please.

Sir?

I feel as if my counsel

is largely responsible for this mess.

I get lots of counsel, Ms. Harper.

What I choose to do with it is my responsibility.

says he's got a Congressional widow on from 60 camera es

demanding that the President avenge her husband's death.

C.J.: Which one?

They're hoping the President will go on camera to respond.

And what, defend his tie-dye, hippie-dippie,

blowin' in the wind peacenick pipe dream

while the grieving widow rends her garments?

Want me to see if I can get you a couple minutes in the Oval right away?

I bet the President won't be back in the building until this afternoon.

As you know, I've been consistent with my desire

to restart negotiations with the Israelis.

The Israelis won't get in a room with Farad again.

I'm surprised the Prime Minister hasn't already said so

in about three different languages.

The President asked him not to.

Last time Israel Farad doesn'toffered up Gaza,

96% of the West Bank, half of Jerusalem,

sovereignty over the Temple Mount,

and the lead role in the Temple Betn-el Purim Play.

Farad walked away.

A President who's What do yprepared to respond

The Vice President can'tder of support the President on this.

He planning to say so publicly?

He's speaking at

the Israel Policy Forum Gala on Friday.

He can't be convinced I tto come down with

He's a pretty a nasty bout ofhealthy guy.

The President knows, right?

You guys are telling him?

That there is no viable alternative.

He's going to have to bomb Palestinians.

PRESIDENT: Blessed are the merciful

for they shall obtain mercy.

Blessed are they

which are persecuted for righteousness' sake

for theirs will be the kingdom of heaven.

And blessed are the peacemakers,

for they shall be called

the children of God.

We have no choice but to retaliate.

Khalil Nasan is still in Gaza?

Yes, but we've been able to link Nasan's

bombing of our congressional delegation

to the Khanjari Martyrs.

The Martyrs are using the Ein Hawa camp near Damascus

as their base of operation.

In Syria?

E-mails and cellular communications

indicate that they supplied the munitions

and the technical support for Nasan.

What are you proposing, General?

Syria and Iran are the primary supporters of the Martyrs.

The Lincoln Battle Group is moving into strike range.

We can use SLAM ER missiles against the Ein Hawa camp

and the two terrorist training camps

in Northern Iran east of Birjan.

And blow the summit out of the water. What summit?

The Israelis aren't going to meet with Farad.

The region is already a powder keg.

Name one day in the last 20 centuries when it wasn't.

Egypt, Jordan and the Saudis will help us craft a deal

with Farad if they think it's fair.

But the whole thing will fall apart

LEO:e start bombing The only way to prevent attacks against Americans abroad

is to show we're willing to respond when provoked.

Bombing Syria and Iran sends a powerful message, Mr. President.

Do we have any evidence linking Iran to Nasan?

If we take this opportunity

to strike Iranian terrorist camps, believe me, sir,

we'll find a way to link the attacks on our people

Are you suggestingto them later. we use the attack

on our congressional delegation as a pretext

to attack another country we don't know to be responsible?

Mr. PresiI'm not usingsuggesting Then what the helllear... are you suggesThere's ample

Admiral Fitzwallace's death

and the death of our congressmen

as a pretext to attack another country

we don't happen to like.

The ambassador is here.

I want to see what we have

linking Nasan to the Martyrs in Syria.

with any credible,come up verifiable evidence

dragging Iran into this mess,

I'll take a look at that, too.

Thank you, sir.

I'm not bombing half the Middle East

because it's going to make us all feel better.

They're on your side.

I was having a hard time believing that

a few minutes ago.

Sir, you can't delay any longer.

There are no rabbits

left in I'm not prepared to accept that.

You're going to have to, sir.

The ambassador's waiting.

Looks like your boy's gotten himself into a bit of trouble.

My boy?

Bartlet.

It's been President Bartlet for five years,

hasn't been "boy" for about 50.

The Israelis are never going to meet with Farad.

They've got him surrounded in the West Bank.

What's Bartlet think they're going to do,

knock on the door of his compound

and say "I'm so sorry about all the tanks and stuff,

but would you like to pop over to America,

have a nice wee chat and sort this out?

Where are you from?

Belfast.

of how to work things out reover there.d

Yeah, we are, actually.

The Israelis have every right

to protect themselves from terrorists.

oppressing a peoplean fighting for self rule.force

They're citizen-soldiers trying to keep

their sisters from getting blown up on a bus.

You Jewish?

the Palestinians have a point is anti-Semitic. Anyone who thinks

And anyone who thinks that Jews don't--

after being chased and exiled and persecuted for centuries

is either an idiot or a fool--

or probably both.

Madame Ambassador.

Mr. McGarry.

Pleasure to see you. Thank you.

Please.

Admiral Fitzwallace was a great man.

All Israelis mourn his loss.

Israel cannot agree to attend a summit with Chairman Farad

while our citizens are being brutally murdered every day.

Whether we like it or not,

Farad is in charge.

The United States has sought regime change

in dictatorships around the world.

Is Israel to be held to a higher standard?

Israel was created to be a land free from oppression.

Whether the land is rightly Palestinian,

Israeli, Jordanian or Judean,

the people who live in the territories are oppressed.

By their own leadership, by the neglect of Arab neighbors

and yes, by Israel.

I'm sorry, Mr. President.

Chairman Farad is interested in only one thing--

murdering Israelis.

And apparently, he's decided it's now time

to start murdering Americans as well.

We won't participate in any discussions

which include Chairman Farad.

If you'll excuse me, sir.

ALL: C.J.!

Republicans are on their way to the White House

this afternoon to meet with the President.

Any idea what they're planning to say?

is gexpress their unanimous whatand unqualified support

of the President's policies.

The Democrats are saying It'sthey don't understandcans.

why the President is wringing his hands

We're working closely with leaders of both parties on this.

They know the President is determined to act.

No they don't, C.J. Neither do the American people.

Gallup is saying 82% support immediate

military action in response to Gaza.

The President doesn't make security decisions

based on opinion polls.

Have the Israelis agreed to participate

Israeli officials are with saying privatelytinians?

they won't attend if Farad is invited.

We're discussing the specifics of any possible talks

with members of the Palestinian Authority

and representatives of the Israeli government.

These conversations are ongoing.

How's she doing?

Okay, considering

she's human chum.

Anything from Josh?

Yeah.

Something about Da pulmonary embolism.y.

Margaret.

60 Minutes is going to run

an interview with Christine Korb.

Yeah. C.J. told me this morning.

See if you can reach Josh.

We need to get to Alicia DeSantos.

President doesn't want us hauling out

a grief stricken widow like some political lawn ornament.

You don't have to let the PreNot today, okay, Toby?it

I've got enough problems...

What's the President doing, Leo? A summit?

What's he needgot a second one for?

Bookends?

Let the President's office know, The Spethen show him in.

He brought half of congress with him.

Don't think they'll all fit.

Mr. Speaker, nice to see you.

Richard, David, Leslie.

Sheila, surprised to see you running with this crowd.

This isn't a partisan issue.

would be helpful to the White House.f unity

something up in the Oval. He'll be right with us.

Have you been listening to the radio?

Have you been listening to the radio? I've been a little busy.

Oldies radio, the traffic report?

The nation's taking the announcement

of these peace talks badly.

Many people believe you sent congressmen into harms way...

These the same right-wing turkey-basters

who said I faked MS to get the sympathy vote

Nice to see everyone. Please sit down.tion

Members of congress were killed, Mr. President.

you're typing up name tags and inviting themg justice

You're ignoring the to play dsacrifice these men atmade for their country.

On the contrary, I'm trying to honor it.

HAFFLEY: You're appeasing terrorists

by rewarding them with a peace summit.

If the issue here is congressional consultation,

we can assure you...

Mr. President, you have to go on national television,

admit your mistake and retract those invitations.

You've insulted these men

You have to put this summit back into the cereal box

it came in.

I didn't come here to play games.

I'm trying to find a way to make peace,

and when I do, you can go on TV

and explain why you're against it.

( door slams )

Ms. Moss was experiencing shortness of breath and chest pain.

Her chest CT revealed a blood clot in her right lung.

She asked if she could see you for a moment before we put her under.

Me?

Um, no. Mr. Lyman.

I just talked to the doctor.

They said it's no big deal.

Yeah, stylish, huh?

He tell you

what they're going to do?

It's going to be a snap.

Yeah.

Don't be.

You're going to be fine, okay?

DOCTOR: Okay, Donna, here we go.

The strike force can launch in six hours.

That's two hours to the targets in Syria, same to Gaza.

Air-to-ground smart munitions against both.

Back on the deck in four hours.

Intel still has Khalil Nasan at the same location in Gaza?

So far. We just have to hope he stays put until mid-morning.

Good.

You'll talk to him?

Yeah.

We lose track of Nasan now,

who knows when we pick him up again.

Thank you, General.

Leo...

Do you have a moment?

Sure.

( sighs )

I encouraged the President to pursue a meeting with Mukarat.

I should have anticipated Chairman Farad would...

Did you bury a mortar shell on a roadside in Gaza two days ago?

No, sir.

I just feel that in hindsight I could...

The President heard what he wanted to hear

and went where he wanted to go. He's over 21.

DYou're not changinglf, Cthe course of history.

I won't take up any more of your time.

He doesn't like chaos.

We bomb some apartment building in Gaza

or a camp in Syria, there'll be consequences.

And we can't tell him what they're going to be.

Will we get drawn into a war in the Middle East?

Will suicide bombers be climbing onto buses

in Passaic, New Jersey instead of Tel Aviv and Haifa?

( knocking )

The President's asking for you and Ms. Harper in the Oval.

The President's looking for answers

and we don't have them.

No idea's too stupid or outrageous.

Party clowns, pinatas, I'd build a mosque out of Jell-O

if I thought...

I need ideas, new ideas.

Come on.

Just throw things out

and we'll see if anything comes of it.

Sir, I think we need to shift the conversation

back to the military...

Come on. Who else?

Is the FBI any closer...?

I'm Farad and the Israelis--

how to get them into the same room together.

C.J.: Previous peace plans

have focused on getting Farad to crack down on Hamas

TOBY: andHe's not powerful enough.ps.

He picks a fight with Hamas...

BARTLET: I need ideas. New ideas. Come on.

The last time Israel Faoffered up Gaza, 96%...l

BARTLET: becausWILL:s going Farad gives security guarantees

and takes tangible action against Hamas.

Really stupid ideas?

Yes, absolutely.

We ignore everything that's happened in

Yesterday, Farad was cooperating with us,

planning to arrest Nasan

and the other perpetrators of the CODEL bombing.

Then the Israelis surrounded

and his people in Gaza refused to arrest Nasan, right?

Yeah, so?

So we hold Farad to his earlier promise.

Tell him if he wants a summit, he has to arrest Nasan.

Show us and the Israelis he's serious

about punishing terrorists.

How's he supposed to do that

when his compound is surrounded by Israeli tanks?

Farad was never going to do it himself.

The Palestinian Authority was just waiting

for his okay to proceed.

His cell phone's dead. The Israelis aren't goingrned to stop the American consulate

WILL:rom giving him A cell phone...might.w battery.

He can use mine if he wants.

You're right, it's a stupid idea.

Why?

Who cares if he has a phone?

He's not going to punish Nasan.

He's rounded up terrorists before.

He walks 'em past Al Jazeera for show,

in a palace with a squash courtr and high-speed Internet access.

Tell him he has

to turn Nasan over to us.

He won't do it.

Half his followers think Nasan's a hero for blowing up Americans.

He's going to turn the guy over to the Great Satan?

C.J.: If he says no or equivocates, we go public,

say we wanted Farad for a summit,

but when we identified the killer,

we asked Farad to turn him over, he refused.

We look reasonable, measured.

Farad has no one to blame but himself.

And if he does turn over Nasan,

we go to the Israelis and say, "Hey, look,

he's serious this time."

Can it work?

No.

No.

Maybe.

Maybe.

Okay, somebody get the man a cell phone

and tell him to expect a call from the President.

Thanks, everyone.

ALL: Thank you, Mr. President.

Leo, you're okay...?

Coordinate with State.

Thank you, Mr. President.

Congress is drafting a resolution demanding

that you take military action.

Yeah.

Sir,

the Lincoln Battle Group

will be in position sometime tonight.

They're awaiting your go order to strike Nasan

and the Syrian camps in the morning.

What?

We can't wait for Farad.

The risk of losing Khalil Nasan is too great.

We have intel linking Iran to the Martyrs.

It's sketchy in spots,

but overall it's a compelling case.

I'General Alexander went ahead iwith plans for these bombings?

At your request.

I said I'd consider it when the time was appropriate.

I did not ask that he...

He was trying to anticipate

your eventual needs, sir, at my urging.

Mr. President, please.

Congress, the Joint Chiefs, the American public,

your own staff; everyone disagrees

with your assessment of the situation.

Killing Palestinians isn't going to make us feel safer.

then we'll have to kill Tmore of them.ore o

It's Russian roulette with a fully-loaded gun.

We can't allow terrorists

to murder our citizens without...

Why would Palestinians murder American government officials?

They never have before.

They're deliberately provoking us, Leo.

They know that we have to retaliate.

They've studied us! They want us to overreact!

This isn't overreacting!

It's the appropriate, balanced...

Tell me

how this ends, Leo!

You want me to start something

that may have serious repercussions

on American foreign policy for decades, but you

don't know how it ends!

We don't always know how it ends!

The Lincoln will be in position in a few hours

and then you are going to have to give the go ahead

for the bombings.

Or what?

Let me know when Chairman Farad calls.

I'll be in the residence.

Thank you, Mr. President.

( door shuts )

It's late.

I'm sorry.

Did I wake you?

Mm.

No.

Still nothing?

Maybe I'm wrong.

Maybe.

You think so?

Am I that predictable now?

You were always that predictable.

I could do what they want,

make everyone feel better for a few days.

Some nice aerial shots of things blowing up on CNN,

a few charred bodies.

It'd be a hell of a lot easier.

You want easier?

I want Fitz to walk through my door tomorrow

and give me a hard time about the Celtics.

You think they got a chance this year?

Who?

Celtics.

They still need a big man and a reliable point guard,

but they might make a run for it.

For a moment there, I was worried.

Hey.

I nabbed the last two packages of peanut butter crackers

out of the machine.

It was that or an old egg salad sandwich.

I thought you went home.

And pass up the 16th Street smorgasbord?

I wouldn't have been able to sleep anyway.

I'm catching up on some work.

( coughs quietly )

Mm, you're going to need some water.

Maybe a fire hose.

( muffled ): Or a local reservoir.

How the hell do we always get dragged into these things?

Why can't I just sit on my patio,

barbecue some chicken

and drink my diet Dr. Pepper in peace?

You gonna finish those?

Be my guest.

You ever look around and think,

this country's in a hell if wof a lot of trouble?rge

Till I spend time with the other guys.

WILL: They got a phone to Farad.

The President's talking to him now.

I'm afraid that's unacceptable, Mr. Chairman.

If your security forces were to capture Nasan,

FARAD ( on speakerphone ): The crime was committed in the Palestinian Territories. turned over

The Territories aren't a state.

Trying Nasan in an American court shows

there are other means of seeking justice

than Israeli missile strikes.

This point can also be made in a Palestinian court.

TOBY: What Palestinian court?

It's three guys with loaded pistols

and a Magic 8-Ball.

Mr. Chairman,

capturing Nasan and then

turning him over to us would demonstrate

to the Israelis and the world

that you're tough on terror.

That you know the difference

between fighting for the Palestinian cause

and randomly attacking Americans.

All it would demonstrate is that the Palestinians

are incapable of administering justice themselves.

Americans were killed, Mr. Chairman,

This falls under our jurisdiction.

Even if you were to detain Nasan,

we would ask that you extradite him.

Mr. Chairman?

These are difficult questions.

Perhaps they should be a topic of discussion

for our talks at Camp David.

There won't be any talks if Khalil Nasan

isn't delivered into United States custody.

Mr. President, that makes things very difficult.

Perhaps then, Mr. President...

...we will not be able to meet. ( quietly ): Sorry.

Mr. Chairman,

if your security forces were to detain Nasan

and then turn him over to us secretly...

we'd be happy to say

that he was apprehended by the FBI.

Mr. Chairman?

I will discuss it with members of my government.

And you'll seriously consider it?

I will discuss it.

Thank you for your time, Mr. Chairman.

Thank you, Mr. President.

Was that a yes or a no?

WILL: "Members of my government"? I think he's talking about

TOBY: twoHe won't do it. andHe can't do it.

KATE: He sounded like he was considering it.

He was distracted, looking up Nasan's number

so he could warn him to get the hell out of Gaza.

There's no evidence linking Nasan

to That'sSo now all Palestinians or haven'are terrorists?him y

If the kaffiyeh fits.

That's enough. Thank you everybody.

Go home, try to get some sleep.

Thank you, sir. Mr. President.

Now what?

We wait.

The Lincoln Battle Group is almost...

We wait, Leo.

So, you fly halfway around the world

at a moment's notice, to rush to a woman's bedside

when the White House if facing off

a Biblical apocalypse?

We work together.

Past dalliance gone bad

or tragically unconsummated love

by puritanical American workplace ethics?length

What the hell are you talking about?

There was this a girl when I was 16...

No... 17.

This when you were a bagman for the IRA?

She was mad about me.

Worshipped me, really.

And I liked her,

but I was off to University in Dublin

and she was going to stay in Belfast,

work in her dad's shop.

This is taking too long.

Isn't this taking too long?

She wrote to me

every single day,

and she called weekends.

And she... she was always there.

I took her for granted, you know?

LEAHY: Mr. Lyman?

How's she doing?

We encountered a few difficulties

during the procedure.

She lost a substantial amount of blood.

and call in a vascular surgeon to repair the tear.

Is she's going to be all right?

She's still unconscious.

As soon as she's stabilized,

we'll send her off for an MRI.

Between the anemia and low blood pressure,

she may have suffered hypoxic brain injury.

Decreased oxygen delivery can result in brain damage.

LEO: They had to do

some sort of operation

and there were complications.

I spoke to Josh.

He's pretty upset.

Can you get me Donna's parents?

Yes, sir.

We've heard nothing from Chairman Farad

in over seven hours.

General Alexander is waiting in the Sit Room.

The Lincoln Carrier Group is in place.

( knock on door )

ARNOLD: Excuse me, Mr. President?

LEO: What do you need, George?

Our FBI team in Gaza was just contacted

by the Palestinian Security Forces.

They have Khalil Nasan in custody,

and they'd like to turn him over to us.

Did it pass?

TOBY: House was 317 to 116.

Senate 62 to 37.

"Whereas acts of treacherous and unprovoked violence

have been committed against United States citizens..."

Just skip ahead to the parts that're going to piss me off.

That's gonna be all of it really.

"Whereas, inaction further threatens

"the national security of these United States,

"and there can be no meaningful peace in the Middle East

"so long as such acts are sanctioned and committed...

Here it comes.

"...and whereas, the President has both the authority

"and the imperative to address and prevent such acts of terror

against"The President has the United Staboth the authority

and the imperative"?

It's the Oxford Debating Society's wayb

of telling the President to get off his ass

and do something, you feckless wimp.

Is she here? Yes, sir.

And the Prime Minister

is waiting for your call in Tel Aviv.

Okay. It passed?

Yes, sir.

How many Democrats against us?

Too many.

But we swept the Vermont delegation, am I right?

Actually, no.

"Both the authority and the imperative"?

They want peace but I have to blow something up first?

I think they're willing to haggle on the peace part.

That usually work in the past?

How's my tie?

Charlie, get the Prime Ministere on the phone.ue, sir.

Ms. Harper, head on in and look unhappy.

Toby, I want you to call every Democrat

that supported this resolution

and tell them that if they ever want White House support

for another rubber chicken fund-raiser

they had better start singing

a rousing chorus of "Hail to the Chief."

Leo, head down to the Sit Room

and tell the Generals to keep their pistols in their pockets

for the time being.

You don't believe in this, Leo,

and they're not going to want to do it.

I can't have them picking up

any signals from you that we disagree.

No, sir.

JOSH: So, uh...

TOBY ( on phone ): Yeah, and Blinken, Worthington, Goffman. Fields vot

Wow. Goffman?

Sue Bordan's on here, too.

with a knuckle-dragging D.A. Oh, from Lake Forest.race

Donna any better?

You're on with Josh?

They can't tell if there's neurological damage

for a couple days.

How is she?

They won't know anything for a couple of days.

WOMAN: Sir.

Oh, God, really?

I-I don't have a pacemaker or anything.

Turn it off, now, sir.

Okay, sure. Lieutenant.

Who're you talking to?

I'll call back in a couple hours.

The Palestinian Authority has detained Khalil Nasan

ZAHAVY ( on speakerphone): Farad's promised to turn over and is terrorists before.im over to our FBI.

It's a show of good faith on Chairman Farad's part.

An example of his renewed willingness

to address the peace process.

Mr. Prime Minister,

the territories are undermining your legitimacy

and sapping your moral authority in the eyes of the world.

Farad is beholden to the very forces

that wish to push us back into the sea.

It's not a negotiating point for him.

It's a religious and moral imperative

to take back all of Israel for Palestine.

Sir, you cannot hold yourself out as the Promised Land

while occupying the territories and oppressing other peoples.

Our Arab citizens enjoy the most freedoms

of any Arabs in the Middle East.

The Palestinians are oppressed as opposed to who?

We don't stone women

who refuse to wear head scarves in Tel Aviv.

Sir,

Chairman Farad's seen you're almost done

He's about to lose half the Jordan Valley

If you agree to come to a summit with Farad

and he still refuses to reach an agreement,

the United States is willing to publicly support

Israeli actions to secure your homeland,

including the building of the fence.

Eli, why not sit down and talk again?

If Farad turns over this terrorist to you,

I will take the offer to my cabinet.

Thank you, Mr. Prime Minister.

Good afternoon, Mr. President.

Madam Ambassador.

Mr. President.

( door closes )

( whispers ): I think we got ourselves a ball game.

( knocks twice on desk )

TOBY: Have you been to NSF Thurmont before?

Camp David, no. No, I haven't.

Ever been on Marine One?

No. No, I haven't.

Like helicopters?

No, not really. I get airsick.

Okay. You can sit with Will.

I want you to stay here, hold down the Fort.

I'll call you when things heat up.

Of course, Mr. President.

You still think this is a mistake.

Yes, sir, I do.

As soon as the Palestinian delegation

is on the ground at Andrews, give Alexander the go.

Sir?

Tell the General

to hit the Ein Hawa camp near Damascus.

What about Iran?

I've looked at the intel file.

I'm still not convinced.

You get something more,

show it to me, and we'll discuss it.

Thank you, Mr. President.

( phone ringing )

Will Bailey.

and strategic planning You last night?

Missiles and marshmallows.

President loves a good campfire.

I should warn you-- all his horror stories

are about the Crusades.

Yeah, well, so's the morning paper.

Palestinians are wheels up.

C.J.: That's a great way to stop the summit

with the consistency of industrial sealant.

Leo's looking for you. Try and get him up at Camp David.

He's not at Camp David.

He's in his office.

I thought you went up yesterday with the President.

A couple loose ends.

We want the press corps down here.

We're not going to the cozy inn? President doesn't want

You walk 'em through a daily schedule, and that's it.

No pool spray.

They go to Camp David, all they're going to get

is shots of tinted windows and enough furrowed brows

to start a Yiddish theater group.

They're ready for you.

We're going to have an announcement

in a couple of hours.

I'll find you when it's time.ouncemen

How far?

Only have lungs for five miles.

Buy a carton of Luckys. You can stay in bed next time.

So much for permanent press.

Prep group's about to start up on the lower porch.

Mr. President.

They're on their way.

Did you come

to a consensus?

Only that Toby would give half his salary

for a piece of asphalt he could use

to pummel the State Department.

You're making a mess of it. Give me that.

What's the sticking point? What isn't?

If we can't agree, how do we expect them to?

The Israelis just cleared our airspace.

Okay.

Go get 'em, Cassius.

Thank you.

Mr. Prime Minister, welcome, and thank you

for coming. Mr. President.

Maya, good to see you again.

Mr. President. Madame Galit.

Have you met Defense Minister Mazar?

Prime Minister Mukarat, thank you so much for coming.

My pleasure.

ABBEY: Pleasure to Chairman Farad, welcome.

Mr. President.

Please join us here.

They're 30 minutes out, sir.

Do we have the go?

That's a go.

Maybe tomorrow.

You don't mind my saying so, sir,

I hope the President knows how lucky he is to have you.
