00:00:09,859 --> 00:00:11,493
Mr. President?

4
00:00:12,862 --> 00:00:14,546
G.W.! Blue! Blue!

5
00:00:14,581 --> 00:00:15,913
Josh...

6
00:00:15,949 --> 00:00:18,450
didn't you hear me
shouting for you?

7
00:00:18,485 --> 00:00:19,251
I need a doctor!

8
00:00:19,286 --> 00:00:20,752
Pulse/ox is 92 on 15 liters.

9
00:00:20,787 --> 00:00:22,938
I need to get to New Hampshire.

10
00:00:22,973 --> 00:00:25,218
Josh, I'd like you to come
to Nashua, New Hampshire,

11
00:00:25,242 --> 00:00:27,120
Thursday night and
hear Jed Bartlet speak.

12
00:00:27,144 --> 00:00:28,444
I work for Senator Hoynes.

13
00:00:28,479 --> 00:00:30,457
Come to Nashua Thursday night.

14
00:00:30,481 --> 00:00:31,280
Why?

15
00:00:31,315 --> 00:00:32,281
Because that's what

16
00:00:32,316 --> 00:00:34,093
sons do for old
friends of their father's.

17
00:00:34,117 --> 00:00:35,945
If I see the real thing in
Nashua, should I tell you?

18
00:00:35,969 --> 00:00:37,113
You won't have to.

19
00:00:37,137 --> 00:00:37,903
Why?

20
00:00:37,938 --> 00:00:39,615
You've got a pretty
bad poker face.

21
00:00:39,639 --> 00:00:40,750
Two shooters in that window.

22
00:00:40,774 --> 00:00:42,974
We got them both from the
roof, but there was a signal.

23
00:00:43,010 --> 00:00:44,287
There was somebody
on the ground?

24
00:00:44,311 --> 00:00:46,231
White male, 20,
25, maybe five-ten.

26
00:00:58,442 --> 00:01:01,743

00:01:05,983 --> 00:01:08,550
Joshua Lyman is
currently undergoing

30
00:01:08,585 --> 00:01:11,820
extensive surgery to
repair a collapsed lung

31
00:01:11,855 --> 00:01:14,289
and to remove a bullet
that remains lodged

32
00:01:14,325 --> 00:01:15,723
in his thoracic region.

33
00:01:15,759 --> 00:01:17,370
Now, for an update
on his condition

34
00:01:17,394 --> 00:01:18,939
let's go live now
to Lynn Blakely,

35
00:01:18,963 --> 00:01:21,296
who's standing by at
George Washington Hospital.

36
00:01:21,332 --> 00:01:23,698
She's got the latest for us.

37
00:01:23,733 --> 00:01:25,867
Wait. We're not
going to Lynn just yet.

38
00:01:25,902 --> 00:01:28,703
Now, I'm being told that
authorities are reporting

39
00:01:28,738 --> 00:01:30,072
another gunshot victim...

00:01:42,186 --> 00:01:43,402
Let me see those hands!

44
00:01:43,437 --> 00:01:45,169
Police! Hold it right there!

45
00:01:45,205 --> 00:01:46,899
Get down! Police!
Right there now!

46
00:01:46,923 --> 00:01:48,623
Police! Freeze!

00:01:48,659 --> 00:01:49,507
Eat that ground!

00:01:51,995 --> 00:01:53,362

C.J.: We're confirming now

58
00:02:54,341 --> 00:02:56,574
that a suspect has
been taken into custody

59
00:02:56,610 --> 00:02:59,310
and is being questioned
by Federal law enforcement.

60
00:02:59,346 --> 00:03:01,747
At this time, we cannot,
we<i> are</i> not releasing

61
00:03:01,782 --> 00:03:04,182
any information whatsoever
about the suspect.

62
00:03:04,218 --> 00:03:07,219
C.J., can you tell us anything,
his name, where he's from,

63
00:03:07,254 --> 00:03:09,321
ethnicity, if you guys
suspect a motive?

64
00:03:09,356 --> 00:03:11,623
Yes, Steve, I can tell
you all those things

65
00:03:11,658 --> 00:03:12,724
because when I said

66
00:03:12,759 --> 00:03:14,871
we weren't releasing any
information whatsoever,

67
00:03:14,895 --> 00:03:17,295
I meant except his name,
his address, his ethnicity

68
00:03:17,330 --> 00:03:19,175
and what we think
his motive was.

69
00:03:19,199 --> 00:03:20,343
ALL: C.J.!

70
00:03:20,367 --> 00:03:22,617
I<i> am</i> releasing the name
of Stephanie Abbott,

71
00:03:22,652 --> 00:03:28,323
A-B-B-O-T-T, of Silver Spring,
Maryland, who was in the crowd

72
00:03:28,358 --> 00:03:31,026
and sustained an
injury to the left femur,

73
00:03:31,061 --> 00:03:32,677
which is the thigh bone.

74
00:03:32,712 --> 00:03:35,413
The President remains
in stable condition

75
00:03:35,448 --> 00:03:36,782
in the recovery room

76
00:03:36,817 --> 00:03:40,351
and is expected to be
released sometime Wednesday.

77
00:03:40,387 --> 00:03:44,022
Josh Lyman is now in his

78
00:03:44,057 --> 00:03:47,025
sixth hour of surgery to
repair a collapsed lung

79
00:03:47,060 --> 00:03:49,060
and a ruptured pulmonary artery.

80
00:03:49,096 --> 00:03:52,330
We likely won't have an
update on his condition

81
00:03:52,365 --> 00:03:54,532
until the procedure is complete,

82
00:03:54,567 --> 00:03:58,636
which they expect won't be
for another six or eight hours.

83
00:03:58,672 --> 00:04:01,173
We'll keep you
updated in the next hour.

84
00:04:01,208 --> 00:04:02,674
Thank you very much.

85
00:04:02,709 --> 00:04:05,677
(<i> reporters clamoring</i>)

86
00:04:10,383 --> 00:04:11,895
Ma'am, does the President know

87
00:04:11,919 --> 00:04:13,329
they've arrested a suspect?

88
00:04:13,353 --> 00:04:15,320
Yes. I told him.

89
00:04:15,355 --> 00:04:17,622
He's pretty groggy

90
00:04:17,657 --> 00:04:19,891
after the anesthesia.

91
00:04:19,927 --> 00:04:21,904
Sam. Toby. You've
got a phone call

92
00:04:21,928 --> 00:04:23,128
in the other room.

93
00:04:29,837 --> 00:04:31,469
Donna...

94
00:04:31,505 --> 00:04:34,472
do you want to throw
some water on your face?

95
00:04:34,508 --> 00:04:37,943
You know, I... I should ask:

96
00:04:37,978 --> 00:04:41,279
Is there anything I'm
supposed to be doing right now?

97
00:04:41,314 --> 00:04:42,458
No.

98
00:04:42,482 --> 00:04:44,293
I mean anything
that Josh's office

99
00:04:44,317 --> 00:04:45,617
is supposed to be doing?

100
00:04:45,653 --> 00:04:47,786
Should I be making
sure it's farmed out?

101
00:04:47,821 --> 00:04:50,102
No. I'm sure it's covered.

102
00:04:59,867 --> 00:05:01,845
You got them on the phone? Yeah.

103
00:05:01,869 --> 00:05:03,035
Guys?

104
00:05:03,070 --> 00:05:04,547
SAM: Yeah, we're here.

105
00:05:04,571 --> 00:05:06,638
Sam, I need you to come
back to the White House

106
00:05:06,674 --> 00:05:09,174
and speak to Nancy McNally
about a letter the President

107
00:05:09,209 --> 00:05:10,236
was supposed to sign.

108
00:05:10,260 --> 00:05:12,260
She'll know what
you're talking about.

109
00:05:12,296 --> 00:05:13,261
Yeah, all right.

110
00:05:13,297 --> 00:05:14,423
And, Toby? Yeah?

111
00:05:14,447 --> 00:05:16,108
They're still asking
about the tent.

112
00:05:16,132 --> 00:05:17,098
Yeah.

113
00:05:17,133 --> 00:05:19,111
I'd be more comfortable
with the no comment

114
00:05:19,135 --> 00:05:20,880
coming from the
Secret Service, so...

115
00:05:20,904 --> 00:05:22,037
What's this?

116
00:05:22,072 --> 00:05:24,017
They want to know
why the President

117
00:05:24,041 --> 00:05:26,052
exited the building
in the open air.

118
00:05:26,076 --> 00:05:27,943
I'll talk to somebody
at Treasury.

119
00:05:27,978 --> 00:05:29,039
I'll do it. Let me.

120
00:05:29,063 --> 00:05:30,707
TOBY: No. Someone.

121
00:05:30,731 --> 00:05:32,931
Toby, we were all in
the meeting together.

122
00:05:32,966 --> 00:05:34,143
Go back to the office.

123
00:05:34,167 --> 00:05:35,633
Okay. Okay.

124
00:05:38,772 --> 00:05:41,372
MAN: <i>Can the ships
pass inspection?</i>

125
00:05:41,408 --> 00:05:43,369
The ships will be registered
in Libya and Panama

126
00:05:43,393 --> 00:05:45,037
so they won't be
subject to the O.P.A.,

127
00:05:45,061 --> 00:05:46,739
which wouldn't allow
an American company

128
00:05:46,763 --> 00:05:48,841
to keep a tanker like
this in service very long.

129
00:05:48,865 --> 00:05:50,009
I think 2017.

130
00:05:50,033 --> 00:05:52,245
I think 2015, and
we'll check that,

131
00:05:52,269 --> 00:05:53,546
but you get the idea.

132
00:05:53,570 --> 00:05:56,204
I think all that's left,
then, is to dot the Ts, huh?

133
00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:57,584
Actually, I have a thing.

134
00:05:57,608 --> 00:05:59,586
I have a thing I was
going to mention.

135
00:05:59,610 --> 00:06:01,554
Just a proposal
to throw out there.

136
00:06:01,578 --> 00:06:03,311
When I was a Congressional aide

137
00:06:03,347 --> 00:06:04,513
we had an expression:

138
00:06:04,548 --> 00:06:06,848
"No idea was too
stupid to say out loud."

139
00:06:06,883 --> 00:06:08,650
So here it is, and bear me out:

140
00:06:08,685 --> 00:06:11,886
Instead of buying these
ships, <i>don't</i> buy these ships.

141
00:06:11,921 --> 00:06:14,856
Buy<i> other</i> ships.
Buy better ships.

142
00:06:14,891 --> 00:06:16,391
That's my idea.

143
00:06:16,426 --> 00:06:17,570
What's he talking about?

144
00:06:17,594 --> 00:06:19,561
That's a perfectly
fair question, Sam.

145
00:06:19,596 --> 00:06:21,463
What the hell are
you talking about?

146
00:06:21,498 --> 00:06:23,075
And the good news is, we
have a no-penalty clause,

147
00:06:23,099 --> 00:06:25,077
we can exercise if we pull out
before the first of December.

148
00:06:25,101 --> 00:06:26,613
But, Sam, we want these ships.

149
00:06:26,637 --> 00:06:29,182
This is as little as we've
ever paid for a fleet.

150
00:06:29,206 --> 00:06:31,573
Well, there's a reason why
they don't cost a lot of money.

151
00:06:31,608 --> 00:06:34,208
They're 20-year-old, single-hulled
VLCCs that nobody else wants.

152
00:06:34,244 --> 00:06:35,621
When they hit
things, they will break,

153
00:06:35,645 --> 00:06:37,523
and they will hit things
because they don't have

154
00:06:37,547 --> 00:06:38,691
state-of-the-art
navigation systems.

155
00:06:38,715 --> 00:06:40,348
They don't have G-3 tank gauging

156
00:06:40,384 --> 00:06:41,594
or EM-5000 engine monitoring,

157
00:06:41,618 --> 00:06:44,129
the recommended staletronic
or electropneumatic ballast.

158
00:06:44,153 --> 00:06:45,231
And yesterday he didn't know

159
00:06:45,255 --> 00:06:46,855
the difference between
a ship and a boat.

160
00:06:46,890 --> 00:06:48,868
Sam, I thought you told us

161
00:06:48,892 --> 00:06:50,342
you covered our liability.

162
00:06:50,377 --> 00:06:51,809
I did. Strictly speaking, I did.

163
00:06:51,845 --> 00:06:53,957
But there's a broader
liability to think about.

164
00:06:53,981 --> 00:06:56,059
People drove past Exxon
stations after<i> Valdez.</i>

165
00:06:56,083 --> 00:06:58,716
We've got P.R. firms
for P.R. problems.

166
00:06:58,751 --> 00:06:59,829
There's a Suez
tanker ready to launch

167
00:06:59,853 --> 00:07:00,964
in the Koje Island
Shipyard in Korea.

168
00:07:00,988 --> 00:07:03,015
Chevron just dropped the option.

169
00:07:03,039 --> 00:07:04,467
It's sitting in a
cradle. Let's go get it.

170
00:07:04,491 --> 00:07:06,085
Sam, could I talk
to you for a second?

171
00:07:06,109 --> 00:07:09,210
308,000 deadweight tons,
carries 2.2 million gallons.

172
00:07:09,246 --> 00:07:11,412
You can have it
today for 46 million.

173
00:07:11,448 --> 00:07:12,513
Sam?

174
00:07:12,549 --> 00:07:13,593
$46 million?

175
00:07:13,617 --> 00:07:15,182
That's a good price.

176
00:07:15,218 --> 00:07:17,518
Sam, what are you doing?

177
00:07:17,554 --> 00:07:19,198
I think I have an obligation.

178
00:07:19,222 --> 00:07:20,521
What are you doing?

179
00:07:20,557 --> 00:07:22,067
Maybe they want
to buy safer boats,

180
00:07:22,091 --> 00:07:23,636
but we never gave
them the option.

181
00:07:23,660 --> 00:07:24,925
Are you trying to get fired?

182
00:07:24,961 --> 00:07:26,706
Maybe they're really
going to thank us

183
00:07:26,730 --> 00:07:27,695
for this suggestion.

184
00:07:27,731 --> 00:07:29,029
Knock it off, Sam.

185
00:07:29,065 --> 00:07:30,732
Look... Knock it off!

186
00:07:34,855 --> 00:07:36,704
I'm looking, uh, operator...

187
00:07:36,739 --> 00:07:40,308
I'm looking for the number
of a law firm in Manhattan.

188
00:07:40,343 --> 00:07:41,309
Here's the thing:

189
00:07:41,344 --> 00:07:43,677
I can't quite remember
the name of the firm...

190
00:07:43,713 --> 00:07:44,812
No, wait, wait, wait!

191
00:07:44,847 --> 00:07:46,692
I just got back from
New Hampshire,

192
00:07:46,716 --> 00:07:49,050
where I saw this guy,
and now I have to...

193
00:07:49,085 --> 00:07:51,419
Listen, it's a very famous firm.

194
00:07:51,454 --> 00:07:52,853
They handled Shearson.

195
00:07:52,889 --> 00:07:53,854
You must know...

196
00:07:53,890 --> 00:07:55,023
Okay. You know what?

197
00:07:55,058 --> 00:07:56,190
I'm just going...

198
00:07:56,226 --> 00:07:57,191
Okay. Bye.

199
00:07:57,227 --> 00:07:58,227
Aah!

200
00:08:00,230 --> 00:08:01,963
That's amortized over...

201
00:08:01,998 --> 00:08:02,964
15 years.

202
00:08:02,999 --> 00:08:03,965
Pretax?

203
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:04,966
Sam?

204
00:08:05,001 --> 00:08:05,967
Hmm?

205
00:08:06,002 --> 00:08:08,522
15-year pretax amortization?

206
00:08:09,672 --> 00:08:11,605
11 million extra dollars.

207
00:08:11,641 --> 00:08:12,851
We're back to this.
Money's gonna be spent,

208
00:08:12,875 --> 00:08:14,486
Mr. Loch. You can spend
it now or spend it later,

209
00:08:14,510 --> 00:08:16,322
but it's cheaper
to spend it now.

210
00:08:16,346 --> 00:08:17,974
Sam... It's also
the right thing to do.

211
00:08:17,998 --> 00:08:19,859
Spend 11 million
extra dollars. Sam...

212
00:08:19,883 --> 00:08:21,160
Spend it on a
better boat. Damn it!

213
00:08:21,184 --> 00:08:23,079
The Amoco<i> Cadiz:</i>
68 million gallons

214
00:08:23,103 --> 00:08:24,964
of crude oil off
Brittany, France.

215
00:08:24,988 --> 00:08:25,970
<i>Braer,</i> a Liberian tanker,

216
00:08:26,006 --> 00:08:27,622
26 million gallons.

217
00:08:27,658 --> 00:08:29,502
I just pulled these off
the Internet last night.

218
00:08:29,526 --> 00:08:32,505
The<i> Exxon Valdez,</i> the Aegean
Sea, The<i> Argo Merchant...</i>

219
00:08:32,529 --> 00:08:34,140
Look it up. I'm sure they're...

220
00:08:34,164 --> 00:08:36,208
Spend 11 million extra
dollars. Sam, that's enough.

221
00:08:36,232 --> 00:08:37,744
You don't want to pay for it?

222
00:08:37,768 --> 00:08:38,878
Sam! Pass the expense on us.

223
00:08:38,902 --> 00:08:40,802
A half a penny at the
tank. Here's five bucks.

224
00:08:40,837 --> 00:08:42,815
Sam! A thousand
people are on me.

225
00:08:42,839 --> 00:08:43,938
(<i> knock on door</i>)

226
00:08:46,343 --> 00:08:48,643
Sam, we are in the
middle of a meeting.

227
00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:50,144
Yeah.

228
00:08:50,180 --> 00:08:52,925
Sam, we're not indifferent to the
concerns of the environmentalists...

229
00:08:52,949 --> 00:08:55,517
LOCH: Excuse me, Sam?

230
00:08:55,552 --> 00:08:57,185
Yeah.

231
00:08:57,220 --> 00:09:01,022
It doesn't quite feel
like I have your attention.

232
00:09:01,057 --> 00:09:02,490
Yeah?

233
00:09:06,663 --> 00:09:07,962
Yeah.

234
00:09:08,965 --> 00:09:10,031
Yeah.

235
00:09:10,066 --> 00:09:11,866
I'm not going to need that.

236
00:09:11,901 --> 00:09:12,667
Sam?

237
00:09:12,703 --> 00:09:13,668
Sam?

238
00:09:13,704 --> 00:09:15,236
Sam, please keep your seat.

239
00:09:15,271 --> 00:09:16,738
Sam, where are you going?

240
00:09:16,773 --> 00:09:17,939
New Hampshire!

241
00:09:28,084 --> 00:09:29,584
If you'll just follow me.

242
00:09:33,190 --> 00:09:34,500
Sam. Yeah.

243
00:09:34,524 --> 00:09:35,723
I wanted to see if...

244
00:09:35,758 --> 00:09:37,136
How's your head? Oh, fine.

245
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:39,138
I wanted to see if you
talked to Nancy McNally.

246
00:09:39,162 --> 00:09:40,828
Yeah, and she talked
to Counsel's Office

247
00:09:40,863 --> 00:09:42,597
and they're going to
work on a few things

248
00:09:42,632 --> 00:09:44,399
to see what we like,
but I can tell you...

249
00:09:44,434 --> 00:09:46,111
Sam, you didn't
happen to notice...

250
00:09:46,135 --> 00:09:48,447
When the shooting started,
you didn't happen to notice

251
00:09:48,471 --> 00:09:50,049
who pulled me to
the ground, did you?

252
00:09:50,073 --> 00:09:51,038
No.

253
00:09:51,074 --> 00:09:53,052
They pulled me down
behind a police car

254
00:09:53,076 --> 00:09:54,353
and my necklace came off.

255
00:09:54,377 --> 00:09:55,343
Oh.

256
00:09:55,378 --> 00:09:56,922
You talked to Nancy McNally?

257
00:09:56,946 --> 00:09:57,912
Yeah. Okay.

258
00:09:57,947 --> 00:09:59,225
Oh, C.J... Yeah.

259
00:09:59,249 --> 00:10:01,026
You need to call back Debbie
at the<i> Today Show.</i> Why?

260
00:10:01,050 --> 00:10:02,861
We said you might be willing
to do the morning shows

261
00:10:02,885 --> 00:10:03,962
when they go on the air at 7:00.

262
00:10:03,986 --> 00:10:05,498
No, that's not a good...
They just wanted...

263
00:10:05,522 --> 00:10:07,066
I'm not going to do
any interviews just yet.

264
00:10:07,090 --> 00:10:08,100
I'm not doing it.

265
00:10:08,124 --> 00:10:09,835
I'll take care of it. Which
one of our people...

266
00:10:09,859 --> 00:10:11,287
It was a mistake.
I'll take care of it.

267
00:10:11,311 --> 00:10:12,455
C.J.? Yeah.

268
00:10:12,479 --> 00:10:14,424
I really don't want
to be this guy, so...

269
00:10:14,448 --> 00:10:17,248
Somebody around here thought
I should do the morning shows.

270
00:10:17,283 --> 00:10:18,594
I still don't have an answer.

271
00:10:18,618 --> 00:10:19,918
Who was in charge?

272
00:10:19,953 --> 00:10:22,420
For 3½ hours, the President
was under anesthesia.

273
00:10:22,456 --> 00:10:25,356
Danny, it's... a
little complicated.

274
00:10:25,391 --> 00:10:28,359
There's something called the
National Security Act of 1947.

275
00:10:28,394 --> 00:10:29,694
There's the 25th.

276
00:10:29,729 --> 00:10:32,697
Nancy McNally, Bill Hutchinson,
the White House Counsel,

277
00:10:32,732 --> 00:10:34,398
they're all working
on it right now.

278
00:10:34,434 --> 00:10:36,078
Yeah, but they're
going to tell me

279
00:10:36,102 --> 00:10:38,013
who was supposed
to be in charge.

280
00:10:38,037 --> 00:10:39,982
I want to know
who was in charge.

281
00:10:40,006 --> 00:10:43,307
And we are working
on that information.

282
00:10:43,343 --> 00:10:45,877
We're working on it.

283
00:10:55,088 --> 00:10:57,088
(<i> phone ringing</i>)

284
00:11:01,761 --> 00:11:03,127
Hello?

285
00:11:05,499 --> 00:11:06,998
Yeah.

286
00:11:11,037 --> 00:11:13,938
Isobel, it's 6:30
in the morning.

287
00:11:15,274 --> 00:11:16,240
(<i> sighs</i>)

288
00:11:16,275 --> 00:11:17,408
Yeah.

289
00:11:24,267 --> 00:11:25,566
(<i> knock on door</i>)

290
00:11:25,602 --> 00:11:27,429
MAN: <i>Excuse me. C.J.'s here.</i>

291
00:11:27,453 --> 00:11:28,953
Thank you.

292
00:11:28,989 --> 00:11:31,156
Good morning, Isobel.

293
00:11:31,191 --> 00:11:32,590
Hello, Roger.

294
00:11:32,625 --> 00:11:35,093
I asked her to be
here 45 minutes ago.

295
00:11:35,128 --> 00:11:36,094
I'm sorry.

296
00:11:36,129 --> 00:11:37,439
I said, I asked you...

297
00:11:37,463 --> 00:11:39,075
Roger... It was
6:30 in the morning.

298
00:11:39,099 --> 00:11:42,567
I wasn't quite ready
for work, but I am now.

299
00:11:42,602 --> 00:11:44,102
How can I help you?

300
00:11:44,137 --> 00:11:47,322
Are you aware that the
Golden Globe nominations

301
00:11:47,357 --> 00:11:49,507
were announced this morning?

302
00:11:50,660 --> 00:11:52,627
I wasn't.

303
00:11:52,662 --> 00:11:53,961
Am I up for something?

304
00:11:53,996 --> 00:11:58,433
C.J.,<i> Atlantis</i> only
got two nominations.

305
00:11:58,468 --> 00:11:59,684
For the entire studio.

306
00:11:59,719 --> 00:12:00,668
Best Comedy Score

307
00:12:00,703 --> 00:12:02,920
and Supporting
Actor for the kid.

308
00:12:02,955 --> 00:12:05,456
That's what $20,000
a month bought us.

309
00:12:05,491 --> 00:12:08,253
Roger, I think we put together
a very aggressive campaign.

310
00:12:08,277 --> 00:12:09,410
Two nominations.

311
00:12:09,445 --> 00:12:11,441
That's two nominations
more than a lot of people got.

312
00:12:11,465 --> 00:12:13,409
Are you aware that the new

313
00:12:13,433 --> 00:12:16,317
<i>Premiere</i> magazine list
is coming out Monday?

314
00:12:16,352 --> 00:12:18,585
The hundred most powerful
people in Hollywood.

315
00:12:18,621 --> 00:12:19,370
Yeah.

316
00:12:19,406 --> 00:12:20,355
Yes, I am.

317
00:12:20,390 --> 00:12:21,867
And I can tell you
that you're on it

318
00:12:21,891 --> 00:12:24,692
and congratulations,
and it must, you know

319
00:12:24,728 --> 00:12:26,672
feel... good being
that powerful.

320
00:12:26,696 --> 00:12:27,928
I went from third to ninth.

321
00:12:27,964 --> 00:12:30,281
I dropped to ninth. Do
you know how that looks?

322
00:12:30,316 --> 00:12:32,583
Do you know how many
other people were ahead of me?

323
00:12:32,618 --> 00:12:34,068
Eight?

324
00:12:34,103 --> 00:12:35,436
Lady, you're...

325
00:12:35,471 --> 00:12:37,567
The movies were
bad, Roger. All of them.

326
00:12:37,591 --> 00:12:40,235
Even the little kid was
bad, but he's a little kid.

327
00:12:40,259 --> 00:12:41,537
He had a couple of scenes,

328
00:12:41,561 --> 00:12:43,022
big eyeglasses, little lisp.

329
00:12:43,046 --> 00:12:45,090
He's going to the Golden Globes.

330
00:12:45,114 --> 00:12:47,815
You know why the New Coke
marketing campaign failed?

331
00:12:47,850 --> 00:12:49,395
Because nobody liked New Coke.

332
00:12:49,419 --> 00:12:50,462
The movies were bad.

333
00:12:50,486 --> 00:12:52,798
If the movies were
unknown, I could help you.

334
00:12:52,822 --> 00:12:53,787
But they weren't.

335
00:12:53,823 --> 00:12:55,139
They were just bad.

336
00:12:55,175 --> 00:13:00,445
Roger, would you excuse
us for just a second, please?

337
00:13:04,584 --> 00:13:06,528
Sorry I talked to him like that,

338
00:13:06,552 --> 00:13:08,019
but did he really think

339
00:13:08,054 --> 00:13:10,494
he had<i> The Maltese
Falcon</i> out there?

340
00:13:10,523 --> 00:13:14,292
The thing is, C.J., he's
big business for me.

341
00:13:14,327 --> 00:13:16,655
I'll apologize to him, Isobel.

342
00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:20,331
I'll find someone to
make him Man of the Year.

343
00:13:20,367 --> 00:13:21,644
I'll ask around in Vegas.

344
00:13:21,668 --> 00:13:22,668
He wants you fired.

345
00:13:22,702 --> 00:13:24,836
He thinks you're a smart-mouth.

346
00:13:24,871 --> 00:13:28,017
He's going to pull his
business unless you fire me?

347
00:13:28,041 --> 00:13:30,775
This was never what you
wanted to be doing, C.J.

348
00:13:30,810 --> 00:13:32,977
You've always felt
it was beneath you.

349
00:13:33,013 --> 00:13:34,312
It is beneath me.

350
00:13:34,347 --> 00:13:36,525
C.J... So take me
off film and television.

351
00:13:36,549 --> 00:13:38,527
I don't know anything
about it anyway.

352
00:13:38,551 --> 00:13:40,029
We have plenty of accounts...

353
00:13:40,053 --> 00:13:42,487
I need to keep his
business. I'm sorry.

354
00:13:46,025 --> 00:13:47,592
You're firing me?

355
00:13:47,627 --> 00:13:49,060
I'm sorry.

356
00:13:49,095 --> 00:13:50,711
Out here in the hallway?

357
00:13:50,746 --> 00:13:53,526
C.J... I need someone
to call me a cab.

358
00:13:53,550 --> 00:13:54,649
I'm sorry?

359
00:13:54,684 --> 00:13:56,962
I couldn't get my
contacts in this morning

360
00:13:56,986 --> 00:13:59,520
and I broke my glasses
getting out of the car.

361
00:13:59,556 --> 00:14:01,767
I can't drive myself home.

362
00:14:01,791 --> 00:14:04,759
I need someone to call me a cab.

363
00:14:04,794 --> 00:14:07,161
Could you call a
taxi for C.J., please?

364
00:14:07,196 --> 00:14:09,714
I have to go back in.

365
00:14:09,749 --> 00:14:11,282
Mmm.

366
00:14:11,318 --> 00:14:14,452
It was a bad movie, Isobel.

367
00:14:14,487 --> 00:14:17,922
ASSISTANT: Yes, I need a
taxi to Beverly Hills, please.

368
00:14:47,303 --> 00:14:49,503
Hello?

369
00:14:49,538 --> 00:14:51,638
Hey, C.J.

370
00:14:53,793 --> 00:14:55,793
Who is that?

371
00:14:55,828 --> 00:14:57,262
It's me.

372
00:14:59,198 --> 00:15:00,698
Toby?

373
00:15:00,734 --> 00:15:01,766
Yeah.

374
00:15:01,801 --> 00:15:03,484
What the hell are you...?

375
00:15:07,974 --> 00:15:10,341
C.J., you fell into
the pool, there.

376
00:15:10,376 --> 00:15:11,326
I can't see.

377
00:15:11,361 --> 00:15:13,310
Yeah, well, maybe,

378
00:15:13,346 --> 00:15:16,180
uh, kind of try and feel
your way to dry land.

379
00:15:16,216 --> 00:15:17,348
Want a hand?

380
00:15:17,383 --> 00:15:18,732
Shut up.

381
00:15:21,687 --> 00:15:23,438
Avert your eyes.

382
00:15:23,473 --> 00:15:24,455
What?

383
00:15:24,490 --> 00:15:25,768
I'm climbing out of the pool.

384
00:15:25,792 --> 00:15:27,608
My clothes will be clingy.

385
00:15:27,643 --> 00:15:28,942
Avert your eyes.

386
00:15:28,978 --> 00:15:29,943
(<i> chuckling</i>)

387
00:15:29,979 --> 00:15:31,790
C.J., I really
didn't come here...

388
00:15:31,814 --> 00:15:32,991
Avert your eyes!

389
00:15:33,015 --> 00:15:34,382
Okay.

390
00:15:42,725 --> 00:15:44,108
Oh, turn around.

391
00:15:46,962 --> 00:15:48,929
I tried calling
you at your office.

392
00:15:48,964 --> 00:15:50,431
They said you were fired.

393
00:15:50,466 --> 00:15:51,932
Were you stealing things?

394
00:15:51,967 --> 00:15:54,735
Roger Becker dropped from
third most powerful person

395
00:15:54,770 --> 00:15:57,805
in Hollywood to ninth most
powerful person in Hollywood.

396
00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:00,658
Does he still make the
playoffs or is the cutoff line...?

397
00:16:00,693 --> 00:16:02,410
They take it seriously.

398
00:16:02,445 --> 00:16:05,629
C.J., Jed Bartlet's very
impressed with you.

399
00:16:05,665 --> 00:16:08,332
He likes the work you did

400
00:16:08,367 --> 00:16:12,102
with that girls' group
with the stupid name.

401
00:16:12,138 --> 00:16:14,305
EMILY's List? Yes.

402
00:16:14,340 --> 00:16:17,708
That girls' group with
the stupid name? Yes.

403
00:16:17,743 --> 00:16:19,543
EMILY's List. Early
Money Is Like Yeast?

404
00:16:19,578 --> 00:16:21,779
It helps raise the
dough. Yeah. I get it.

405
00:16:21,814 --> 00:16:24,031
They raise money
for women candidates.

406
00:16:24,066 --> 00:16:25,532
Early Money Is Like Yeast.

407
00:16:25,568 --> 00:16:28,869
It helps raise the
dough... for the candidates.

408
00:16:28,905 --> 00:16:30,249
I really do get it.

409
00:16:30,273 --> 00:16:31,505
Bartlet's impressed with me?

410
00:16:31,540 --> 00:16:32,701
Very impressed.

411
00:16:32,725 --> 00:16:35,709
And one of the big
keys to his game plan

412
00:16:35,745 --> 00:16:38,262
is bringing you on
as Press Secretary.

413
00:16:40,283 --> 00:16:42,149
He's never heard of me, has he?

414
00:16:42,202 --> 00:16:43,434
No.

415
00:16:43,470 --> 00:16:44,435
Toby...

416
00:16:44,471 --> 00:16:46,215
I'm here on instructions
from Leo McGarry.

417
00:16:46,239 --> 00:16:47,204
McGarry wants me?

418
00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:49,773
Yes. Come join the campaign.

419
00:16:51,744 --> 00:16:53,644
How much does it pay?

420
00:16:53,679 --> 00:16:55,913
How much were you making before?

421
00:16:55,948 --> 00:16:57,248
$550,000 a year.

422
00:16:57,283 --> 00:16:58,427
This pays $600 a week.

423
00:16:58,451 --> 00:17:00,418
So this is less. Yes.

424
00:17:00,453 --> 00:17:04,488
Toby... does he know I've
only ever worked statewide?

425
00:17:04,524 --> 00:17:07,474
Does he know I've never
worked on a national campaign?

426
00:17:07,510 --> 00:17:11,478
Yes. It's graduation day.

427
00:17:11,514 --> 00:17:15,883
You really think I can do this?

428
00:17:15,918 --> 00:17:19,420
Yeah.

429
00:17:19,455 --> 00:17:21,989
Is Jed Bartlet a good man?

430
00:17:22,025 --> 00:17:22,840
Yeah.

431
00:17:22,875 --> 00:17:24,291
Toby?

432
00:17:24,326 --> 00:17:28,562
Yes.

433
00:17:29,982 --> 00:17:33,016
Then... let's go into the house

434
00:17:33,052 --> 00:17:34,379
so I can change my clothes

435
00:17:34,403 --> 00:17:35,619
and we'll talk about it.

436
00:17:35,655 --> 00:17:36,665
C.J.? Yeah?

437
00:17:36,689 --> 00:17:38,589
The house is over there.

438
00:17:38,625 --> 00:17:39,625
Okay.

439
00:17:41,327 --> 00:17:44,378
RON: <i>One of them was using</i>

440
00:17:44,413 --> 00:17:45,796
a nine-millimeter Beretta.

441
00:17:45,831 --> 00:17:47,643
The other had a
.357 Desert Eagle.

442
00:17:47,667 --> 00:17:49,945
Ron's saying that these are
absolutely the wrong weapons

443
00:17:49,969 --> 00:17:51,713
to use for a
shooting of this kind

444
00:17:51,737 --> 00:17:54,455
and that's why the injury
count was as low as it was.

445
00:17:54,490 --> 00:17:56,974
We don't know what
the injury count is yet.

446
00:17:57,009 --> 00:17:58,942
(<i> door opens</i>) Yeah,
but his point is...

447
00:17:58,978 --> 00:18:00,272
CHARLIE: Excuse me, sir.

448
00:18:00,296 --> 00:18:02,090
I was told you wanted to see me.

449
00:18:02,114 --> 00:18:03,881
Yeah.

450
00:18:07,386 --> 00:18:11,405
Charlie, the guy the Secret
Service have in custody

451
00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:14,541
is named Carl LeRoy.

452
00:18:14,577 --> 00:18:16,338
He gives a statement
in which he says

453
00:18:16,362 --> 00:18:19,213
that he and the two shooters
were members of an organization

454
00:18:19,248 --> 00:18:21,432
called West
Virginia White Pride.

455
00:18:21,467 --> 00:18:25,903
They tried to kill the President
'cause Zoey and I are together?

456
00:18:25,938 --> 00:18:28,255
No.

457
00:18:29,909 --> 00:18:31,175
Why did...?

458
00:18:31,210 --> 00:18:34,895
Charlie, the President
wasn't the target.

459
00:18:34,930 --> 00:18:37,108
According to the statement,

460
00:18:37,132 --> 00:18:40,967
the President wasn't the target.

461
00:18:41,003 --> 00:18:42,869
Oh.

462
00:18:45,241 --> 00:18:46,440
Okay.

463
00:18:50,279 --> 00:18:52,613
Okay, well...

464
00:18:55,818 --> 00:18:57,551
Okay.

465
00:18:57,587 --> 00:18:59,553
Thank you, Mr. President.

466
00:18:59,589 --> 00:19:00,754
Sure.

467
00:19:02,758 --> 00:19:04,124
Dad, I'm going to...

468
00:19:04,159 --> 00:19:05,626
Go.

469
00:19:13,802 --> 00:19:17,482
We don't know what
the injury count is yet.

470
00:19:28,300 --> 00:19:30,345
MARGARET: <i>He was
supposed to sign a letter?</i>

471
00:19:30,369 --> 00:19:33,671
If the President is going
under general anesthesia,

472
00:19:33,706 --> 00:19:35,039
he usually signs a letter

473
00:19:35,074 --> 00:19:37,875
handing over executive
powers to the Vice President.

474
00:19:37,910 --> 00:19:40,945
And the President
didn't sign a letter?

475
00:19:40,980 --> 00:19:42,913
Nope. We blew that play.

476
00:19:42,949 --> 00:19:44,560
Is there going to be trouble?

477
00:19:44,584 --> 00:19:45,584
We'll see.

478
00:19:45,618 --> 00:19:46,584
To be honest with you

479
00:19:46,619 --> 00:19:48,052
I don't really care right now.

480
00:19:50,238 --> 00:19:53,623
Can... can I just say something,
you know, for the future?

481
00:19:53,658 --> 00:19:54,691
Yeah.

482
00:19:54,726 --> 00:19:56,994
I can sign the President's name.

483
00:19:57,029 --> 00:19:58,828
I have his signature down

484
00:19:58,864 --> 00:20:00,163
pretty good.

485
00:20:00,199 --> 00:20:02,466
You can sign the
President's name?

486
00:20:02,501 --> 00:20:03,517
Yeah.

487
00:20:03,552 --> 00:20:05,119
On a document
removing him from power

488
00:20:05,154 --> 00:20:06,486
and handing it to someone else?

489
00:20:06,522 --> 00:20:08,055
Yeah.

490
00:20:09,692 --> 00:20:12,059
Or do you think the
White House Counsel

491
00:20:12,094 --> 00:20:14,028
would say that was a bad idea?

492
00:20:14,063 --> 00:20:17,131
I think the White House Counsel
would say that's a coup d'etat.

493
00:20:17,166 --> 00:20:19,633
Well, I'd probably end up
doing some time for that.

494
00:20:19,669 --> 00:20:21,401
I would think.

495
00:20:21,436 --> 00:20:23,081
Leo... And what the
hell are you doing

496
00:20:23,105 --> 00:20:24,772
practicing the
President's signature?

497
00:20:24,807 --> 00:20:25,773
It's just for fun.

498
00:20:25,808 --> 00:20:27,541
We've got separation of powers,

499
00:20:27,576 --> 00:20:28,787
checks and balances,

500
00:20:28,811 --> 00:20:30,077
and Margaret vetoing things

501
00:20:30,112 --> 00:20:31,690
and sending them
back to the Hill.

502
00:20:31,714 --> 00:20:32,791
Leo, who thought
it was good idea

503
00:20:32,815 --> 00:20:33,859
for me to do the morning shows?

504
00:20:33,883 --> 00:20:34,648
I did.

505
00:20:34,684 --> 00:20:36,183
Why?

506
00:20:36,218 --> 00:20:38,030
The President's not
ready for cameras.

507
00:20:38,054 --> 00:20:39,319
If it's the Vice President,

508
00:20:39,354 --> 00:20:41,722
it's going to look like we
don't have a president.

509
00:20:41,757 --> 00:20:42,934
And I'd like the White House

510
00:20:42,958 --> 00:20:44,870
to start climbing out
from behind the bushes.

511
00:20:44,894 --> 00:20:45,970
I think it's a bad idea.

512
00:20:45,994 --> 00:20:46,960
Why?

513
00:20:46,996 --> 00:20:49,195
I just...

514
00:20:49,231 --> 00:20:51,398
First of all, I think

515
00:20:51,433 --> 00:20:53,700
it's inappropriate while Josh...

516
00:20:53,736 --> 00:20:55,335
You know, until...

517
00:20:55,370 --> 00:20:56,336
What's wrong?

518
00:20:56,371 --> 00:20:58,005
Nothing.

519
00:20:58,040 --> 00:20:59,573
C.J...

520
00:20:59,608 --> 00:21:00,841
Nothing.

521
00:21:02,678 --> 00:21:04,310
I'd rather not do
it, but, obviously...

522
00:21:04,346 --> 00:21:05,712
Have Sam do it.

523
00:21:05,748 --> 00:21:07,030
Okay.

524
00:21:07,065 --> 00:21:08,482
Listen, the letter...

525
00:21:08,517 --> 00:21:09,483
Yeah.

526
00:21:09,518 --> 00:21:10,850
The 3½ hours.

527
00:21:10,886 --> 00:21:13,053
I don't know how much longer
I can dance around Danny,

528
00:21:13,089 --> 00:21:15,722
and it's going to be Danny
times a hundred by lunchtime.

529
00:21:15,757 --> 00:21:17,057
Have him come see me.

530
00:21:17,093 --> 00:21:17,757
Yeah?

531
00:21:17,793 --> 00:21:18,987
Yeah. Okay.

532
00:21:19,011 --> 00:21:21,251
She doesn't want to
do the morning shows.

533
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:23,847
She says she's been
getting a couple questions

534
00:21:23,882 --> 00:21:26,483
about why the President
exited in the open air.

535
00:21:26,518 --> 00:21:28,585
They remember that
the Secret Service

536
00:21:28,620 --> 00:21:30,454
used to construct
a tent or a canopy.

537
00:21:30,489 --> 00:21:32,367
I'm going to talk
to Ron Butterfield.

538
00:21:32,391 --> 00:21:34,024
He's going to say
the Secret Service

539
00:21:34,059 --> 00:21:35,392
doesn't comment on procedure.

540
00:21:35,427 --> 00:21:37,995
I know, but maybe I
can talk him out of it.

541
00:21:38,030 --> 00:21:39,207
I... I should try anyway.

542
00:21:39,231 --> 00:21:41,064
You don't have to, Toby.

543
00:21:41,100 --> 00:21:42,866
Yeah. I should, though.

544
00:21:42,901 --> 00:21:44,634
Okay.

545
00:21:49,641 --> 00:21:51,853
TV ANCHOR: won the
non-binding straw poll

546
00:21:51,877 --> 00:21:53,276
pulling in 48% of the vote.

547
00:21:53,312 --> 00:21:55,412
Senator William Wiley
of Washington State

548
00:21:55,447 --> 00:21:57,715
drew a poorer-than-expected
22% of the vote.

549
00:21:57,750 --> 00:22:00,450
But the story this morning
is the 19% of the vote

550
00:22:00,485 --> 00:22:03,486
picked up by former New
Hampshire Governor Jed Bartlet,

551
00:22:03,522 --> 00:22:05,989
who leapfrogged several
Democratic candidates

552
00:22:06,025 --> 00:22:07,657
to finish a surprising third.

553
00:22:07,693 --> 00:22:10,194
And we're going to go
now to Governor Bartlet,

554
00:22:10,229 --> 00:22:11,595
who's standing by live...

555
00:22:11,630 --> 00:22:14,898
Okay, I'm told we don't have
the Governor at this moment.

556
00:22:14,934 --> 00:22:16,216
So, while we try...

557
00:22:16,251 --> 00:22:18,012
Okay, who can tell me
what we did wrong there?

558
00:22:18,036 --> 00:22:18,986
I blew it. What's next?

559
00:22:19,021 --> 00:22:20,298
"We didn't have the candidate."

560
00:22:20,322 --> 00:22:21,866
That's right. Anybody
who answered...

561
00:22:21,890 --> 00:22:22,872
What's next?

562
00:22:22,908 --> 00:22:25,542
JOSH: Toby wants
to say something.

563
00:22:25,577 --> 00:22:27,477
Which one is Toby?

564
00:22:27,512 --> 00:22:28,128
I am.

565
00:22:28,163 --> 00:22:29,341
And which one are you?

566
00:22:29,365 --> 00:22:30,481
I'm Josh.

567
00:22:30,516 --> 00:22:32,532
What was it you wanted to say?

568
00:22:32,567 --> 00:22:34,195
Let's get out of New Hampshire.

569
00:22:34,219 --> 00:22:35,018
Why?

570
00:22:35,053 --> 00:22:35,969
Nothing to win here.

571
00:22:36,004 --> 00:22:36,970
He's right.

572
00:22:37,005 --> 00:22:38,204
The New Hampshire primary

573
00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:40,018
isn't held in New
Hampshire anymore?

574
00:22:40,042 --> 00:22:41,452
You can't win the New
Hampshire primary.

575
00:22:41,476 --> 00:22:42,904
I'm going to win the
New Hampshire primary.

576
00:22:42,928 --> 00:22:44,427
Which is why you can't win it.

577
00:22:44,463 --> 00:22:46,541
JOSH: You're incredibly
popular in this state.

578
00:22:46,565 --> 00:22:49,149
You're a Democrat who was
elected with 69% of the vote.

579
00:22:49,184 --> 00:22:50,283
That's unheard of.

580
00:22:50,318 --> 00:22:52,097
There's no way you
can exceed expectations.

581
00:22:52,121 --> 00:22:54,454
All you can hope for
is an "as expected,"

582
00:22:54,489 --> 00:22:57,257
and there's the possibility
you can embarrass yourself.

583
00:22:57,292 --> 00:22:58,241
I appreciate that. Thanks.

584
00:22:58,276 --> 00:22:59,192
Toby meant the polls.

585
00:22:59,228 --> 00:23:00,093
I know what he meant.

586
00:23:00,129 --> 00:23:01,940
TOBY: So Hoynes
will be in a fight

587
00:23:01,964 --> 00:23:04,814
with Wiley for a strong second
place finish in New Hampshire.

588
00:23:04,849 --> 00:23:06,950
Meantime, we're going
to be in South Carolina

589
00:23:06,985 --> 00:23:08,663
and we're going to
be the only ones there.

590
00:23:08,687 --> 00:23:10,281
We won't beat Hoynes
in South Carolina.

591
00:23:10,305 --> 00:23:11,566
We don't have to beat
Hoynes in South Carolina.

592
00:23:11,590 --> 00:23:12,701
We just have to beat Wiley.

593
00:23:12,725 --> 00:23:15,175
Wiley's going to drop
out after South Carolina?

594
00:23:15,211 --> 00:23:16,972
If he doesn't finish
higher than third.

595
00:23:16,996 --> 00:23:19,057
Are we going to get
his endorsement?

596
00:23:19,081 --> 00:23:20,892
We're going to get his
money, that's for sure.

597
00:23:20,916 --> 00:23:21,865
It's for sure?

598
00:23:21,900 --> 00:23:22,866
Josh thinks it is.

599
00:23:22,902 --> 00:23:24,168
Which one is Josh?

600
00:23:25,103 --> 00:23:26,185
I am.

601
00:23:26,221 --> 00:23:27,721
Okay.

602
00:23:27,756 --> 00:23:30,007
So, we finish second
in South Carolina,

603
00:23:30,042 --> 00:23:32,559
we pick up some steam,
some endorsements...

604
00:23:32,594 --> 00:23:35,606
Mostly some money, going into
South Dakota, Vermont and Maine.

605
00:23:35,630 --> 00:23:38,214
SAM: Where we'll come
away with a split, maybe better.

606
00:23:38,250 --> 00:23:40,262
Now the prohibitive nominee
for the Democratic nomination

607
00:23:40,286 --> 00:23:41,863
has lost three of the
first seven contests...

608
00:23:41,887 --> 00:23:43,654
And half the actual primaries.

609
00:23:43,689 --> 00:23:44,699
SAM: leading into Super Tuesday.

610
00:23:44,723 --> 00:23:46,251
JOSH: Hoynes will win the South.

611
00:23:46,275 --> 00:23:47,835
We'll take the North
and the Pacific Northwest.

612
00:23:47,859 --> 00:23:49,354
This race will be decided
a week later in Illinois.

613
00:23:49,378 --> 00:23:50,360
Illinois's going
to be<i> High Noon.</i>

614
00:23:50,395 --> 00:23:51,522
Sam, if we win in Illinois,

615
00:23:51,546 --> 00:23:53,524
do we have a shot at
California and New York?

616
00:23:53,548 --> 00:23:56,149
If we win in Illinois, we're
going to run the table.

617
00:23:56,184 --> 00:23:57,262
Well, that's it, then.

618
00:23:57,286 --> 00:23:59,630
And we've saved people
the trouble of voting.

619
00:23:59,654 --> 00:24:00,765
What's next?

620
00:24:00,789 --> 00:24:02,272
Our point is that it's...

621
00:24:02,308 --> 00:24:03,601
I understood the point.

622
00:24:03,625 --> 00:24:06,087
We're going to South
Carolina to set up Illinois.

623
00:24:06,111 --> 00:24:07,288
When I ask what's next,

624
00:24:07,312 --> 00:24:09,974
it means I'm ready to
move on to other things.

625
00:24:09,998 --> 00:24:10,897
So, what's next?

626
00:24:10,933 --> 00:24:12,015
LEO: We're done.

627
00:24:12,050 --> 00:24:13,050
Fantastic.

628
00:24:16,371 --> 00:24:19,739
Well, I feel bathed in the warm
embrace of the candidate, Leo.

629
00:24:19,775 --> 00:24:21,352
He's really very easy to like

630
00:24:21,376 --> 00:24:22,754
once you get to know him.

631
00:24:22,778 --> 00:24:25,511
How many people get that far?

632
00:24:25,547 --> 00:24:26,913
Not that many.

633
00:24:26,949 --> 00:24:28,381
Okay.

634
00:24:28,417 --> 00:24:30,183
DONNA: Josh Lyman.

635
00:24:30,219 --> 00:24:33,020
No, he's not
available right now.

636
00:24:33,055 --> 00:24:34,832
This afternoon he's
got a media session

637
00:24:34,856 --> 00:24:36,223
and then a 4:00 with finance.

638
00:24:36,258 --> 00:24:38,625
If you leave your name, I
can give Josh the message

639
00:24:38,660 --> 00:24:39,726
when he gets back.

640
00:24:39,761 --> 00:24:40,994
Thank you very much.

641
00:24:41,030 --> 00:24:42,296
Hi.

642
00:24:42,348 --> 00:24:43,980
Hi. Who are you?

643
00:24:44,015 --> 00:24:45,382
I'm Donna Moss. Who are you?

644
00:24:45,417 --> 00:24:46,383
I'm Josh Lyman.

645
00:24:46,418 --> 00:24:47,651
Ah.

646
00:24:47,686 --> 00:24:48,580
Yes.

647
00:24:48,604 --> 00:24:49,803
I'm your new assistant.

648
00:24:49,838 --> 00:24:51,388
Did I have an old assistant?

649
00:24:51,423 --> 00:24:52,289
Maybe not.

650
00:24:52,324 --> 00:24:54,002
Who are you? I'm Donna Moss.

651
00:24:54,026 --> 00:24:55,026
I came in to volunteer

652
00:24:55,060 --> 00:24:56,571
and the woman
assigned me to you.

653
00:24:56,595 --> 00:24:57,739
Which woman? Betsy.

654
00:24:57,763 --> 00:24:58,907
You mean Margaret? Yes.

655
00:24:58,931 --> 00:25:00,075
Who are you? I'm Donna Moss.

656
00:25:00,099 --> 00:25:01,576
I'll be working
as your assistant.

657
00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:02,933
I'm going to talk to Margaret.

658
00:25:02,968 --> 00:25:04,279
Actually, Josh... Yeah?

659
00:25:04,303 --> 00:25:06,248
When I said I was
assigned to you Yeah?

660
00:25:06,272 --> 00:25:08,283
I may have been
overstating it a little.

661
00:25:08,307 --> 00:25:09,739
Who are you?

662
00:25:09,775 --> 00:25:10,740
I'm Donna Moss.

663
00:25:10,776 --> 00:25:12,653
I drove here from
Madison, Wisconsin.

664
00:25:12,677 --> 00:25:14,489
When did your boyfriend
break up with you?

665
00:25:14,513 --> 00:25:16,624
What makes you think my
boyfriend broke up with me?

666
00:25:16,648 --> 00:25:18,181
Well, you're too
old for your parents

667
00:25:18,217 --> 00:25:19,716
to have kicked you
out of the house.

668
00:25:19,751 --> 00:25:21,596
I'm here because I
want to work for Bartlet.

669
00:25:21,620 --> 00:25:23,164
I'm a college
graduate with a degree

670
00:25:23,188 --> 00:25:24,699
in Political Science
and Government.

671
00:25:24,723 --> 00:25:25,889
Where did you graduate?

672
00:25:25,925 --> 00:25:26,890
Hmm?

673
00:25:26,926 --> 00:25:28,591
Where did you graduate?

674
00:25:28,627 --> 00:25:30,427
Okay, when I said I graduated

675
00:25:30,462 --> 00:25:31,428
Yeah?

676
00:25:31,463 --> 00:25:33,275
I may have been
overstating a little.

677
00:25:33,299 --> 00:25:34,876
I was a couple of credits short.

678
00:25:34,900 --> 00:25:36,033
From where?

679
00:25:36,068 --> 00:25:37,312
University of Wisconsin.

680
00:25:37,336 --> 00:25:39,669
And you majored in Political
Science and Government?

681
00:25:39,704 --> 00:25:41,716
And, uh... Sociology
and Psychology. Uh-huh.

682
00:25:41,740 --> 00:25:43,919
And Biology for a while
with a minor in French.

683
00:25:43,943 --> 00:25:45,108
Okay.

684
00:25:45,144 --> 00:25:46,709
And, uh, Drama.

685
00:25:46,745 --> 00:25:49,457
You had five majors and
two minors in four years?

686
00:25:49,481 --> 00:25:50,447
Two years.

687
00:25:50,482 --> 00:25:51,782
Uh, listen...

688
00:25:51,817 --> 00:25:53,450
I had to drop out.

689
00:25:53,485 --> 00:25:54,701
I had to drop out.

690
00:25:54,736 --> 00:25:57,303
Your boyfriend
was older than you?

691
00:25:57,338 --> 00:25:59,973
I think that question's
of a personal nature.

692
00:26:00,008 --> 00:26:01,519
Donna, you were just at my desk

693
00:26:01,543 --> 00:26:03,454
reading my calendar,
answering my phone

694
00:26:03,478 --> 00:26:06,012
and hoping I wouldn't
notice that I never hired you.

695
00:26:06,048 --> 00:26:07,324
Your boyfriend was older?

696
00:26:07,348 --> 00:26:08,314
Yes.

697
00:26:08,349 --> 00:26:09,560
Law student? Medical student.

698
00:26:09,584 --> 00:26:11,495
The idea was you'd
drop out and pay the bills

699
00:26:11,519 --> 00:26:12,947
till he's done
with his residency.

700
00:26:12,971 --> 00:26:14,215
Yes. And did you?

701
00:26:14,239 --> 00:26:16,367
And why did Dr. Freeride
break up with you?

702
00:26:16,391 --> 00:26:19,759
What makes you think
he broke up with me?

703
00:26:26,068 --> 00:26:28,535
Donna, this is a campaign
for the Presidency

704
00:26:28,570 --> 00:26:31,571
and there's nothing I take
more seriously than that.

705
00:26:31,606 --> 00:26:33,918
This can't be a place
for people to come

706
00:26:33,942 --> 00:26:36,120
to find their confidence
and start over.

707
00:26:36,144 --> 00:26:37,677
Why not? I'm sorry?

708
00:26:37,712 --> 00:26:39,696
Why can't it be those things?

709
00:26:39,731 --> 00:26:40,931
Because...

710
00:26:40,966 --> 00:26:42,966
Is it going to interfere
with my typing?

711
00:26:43,001 --> 00:26:45,702
Donna, we're picking up today
and going to South Carolina.

712
00:26:45,737 --> 00:26:47,920
If you want to stay in
the Manchester office...

713
00:26:47,956 --> 00:26:49,017
I want to come to Charleston.

714
00:26:49,041 --> 00:26:50,085
I can't carry you, Donna.

715
00:26:50,109 --> 00:26:52,353
I've got a lot of guys out
there not making the trip.

716
00:26:52,377 --> 00:26:53,159
I'll pay my own way.

717
00:26:53,195 --> 00:26:54,427
With what?

718
00:26:54,462 --> 00:26:56,947
I'll sleep on the
floor, I'll sell my car.

719
00:26:56,982 --> 00:26:59,282
Eventually you're going
to put me on salary.

720
00:26:59,317 --> 00:27:00,283
Donna...

721
00:27:00,318 --> 00:27:02,886
Look, I think I can
be good at this.

722
00:27:04,223 --> 00:27:07,190
I think you might
find me valuable.

723
00:27:07,226 --> 00:27:09,275
(<i> phone ringing</i>)

724
00:27:14,316 --> 00:27:16,016
Go ahead.

725
00:27:19,654 --> 00:27:22,422
Bartlet for America,
Josh Lyman's office.

726
00:27:23,525 --> 00:27:26,042
Uh, yes.

727
00:27:26,077 --> 00:27:28,778
I think I'm going to have
somebody from the press office

728
00:27:28,813 --> 00:27:30,613
get back to you
if it relates to...

729
00:27:30,648 --> 00:27:32,115
Yes.

730
00:27:32,150 --> 00:27:34,600
Uh, yes.

731
00:27:36,121 --> 00:27:38,054
Yes.

732
00:27:40,826 --> 00:27:42,525
Yes.

733
00:27:44,562 --> 00:27:46,062

(<i> knocks on door</i>)

736
00:28:15,111 --> 00:28:16,376
Hey, Spanky.

737
00:28:16,411 --> 00:28:17,711
Oh, God, what'd I do?

738
00:28:17,747 --> 00:28:20,380
Take a walk with me, would you?

739
00:28:22,584 --> 00:28:24,584
They're taking
him off bypass now.

740
00:28:24,620 --> 00:28:25,919
Yeah, I just heard.

741
00:28:25,955 --> 00:28:27,866
I'm going to head
to the hospital.

742
00:28:27,890 --> 00:28:29,757
You did well on
the morning shows.

743
00:28:29,792 --> 00:28:31,091
Thanks.

744
00:28:31,127 --> 00:28:33,226
I told Leo the reason
I didn't want to do it

745
00:28:33,262 --> 00:28:35,763
was it didn't feel right
with Josh still in surgery.

746
00:28:35,798 --> 00:28:36,764
Yeah.

747
00:28:36,799 --> 00:28:38,766
You know what the
real reason was?

748
00:28:38,801 --> 00:28:40,267
The real reason?

749
00:28:40,302 --> 00:28:41,601
Yeah.

750
00:28:41,637 --> 00:28:42,936
No.

751
00:28:42,972 --> 00:28:43,937
I think you do.

752
00:28:43,973 --> 00:28:45,283
Listen, C.J... Suzanne.

753
00:28:45,307 --> 00:28:47,941
The real reason I couldn't
go on the morning shows

754
00:28:47,977 --> 00:28:50,377
and give a firsthand
account of what happened

755
00:28:50,412 --> 00:28:52,713
was that I couldn't<i>
remember</i> what happened.

756
00:28:52,748 --> 00:28:54,548
I remember walking
out of the building.

757
00:28:54,583 --> 00:28:56,283
I remember somebody
knocking me down.

758
00:28:56,318 --> 00:28:57,584
I know my necklace came off

759
00:28:57,619 --> 00:29:00,120
and I know a police car
window exploded over my head.

760
00:29:00,156 --> 00:29:02,622
All night long, I've been
doing my press briefings

761
00:29:02,658 --> 00:29:04,692
using notes from
other people's accounts.

762
00:29:04,727 --> 00:29:07,861
But it's morning now and I
listened to you on the morning shows

763
00:29:07,897 --> 00:29:09,163
and I know what happened.

764
00:29:09,198 --> 00:29:10,164
C.J... Sam...

765
00:29:10,199 --> 00:29:12,249
I think you have my necklace.

766
00:29:13,836 --> 00:29:16,331
I didn't want you to
feel beholden to me.

767
00:29:16,355 --> 00:29:18,467
I didn't want it to
be like an episode

768
00:29:18,491 --> 00:29:19,635
of<i> I Dream of Jeannie,</i>

769
00:29:19,659 --> 00:29:21,636
where now you've
got to save my life

770
00:29:21,660 --> 00:29:22,593
and the time-space continuum,

771
00:29:22,628 --> 00:29:23,856
with you following
me around, Sam...

772
00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:25,357
Sam... with coconut
oil and hot towels.

773
00:29:25,381 --> 00:29:26,691
Coconut oil? I'm just saying.

774
00:29:26,715 --> 00:29:28,315
Sam, I don't feel
beholden to you.

775
00:29:28,351 --> 00:29:29,361
Why not? I saved your life.

776
00:29:29,385 --> 00:29:31,602
Can I have my necklace back?

777
00:29:36,308 --> 00:29:38,003
Thank you.

778
00:29:38,027 --> 00:29:39,660
I'll be in my office.

779
00:29:39,695 --> 00:29:40,661
Sam?

780
00:29:40,696 --> 00:29:42,596
Yeah.

781
00:29:42,632 --> 00:29:45,699
Were you scared?

782
00:29:49,105 --> 00:29:51,338
Yeah.

783
00:29:51,373 --> 00:29:53,207
Me, too.

784
00:29:55,010 --> 00:29:56,327
Thanks.

785
00:30:07,139 --> 00:30:08,572
Good morning.

786
00:30:08,608 --> 00:30:09,673
I have an update

787
00:30:09,709 --> 00:30:12,242
and I can give you
a ballistics report.

788
00:30:12,277 --> 00:30:13,744
So, let's get started.

789
00:30:13,779 --> 00:30:15,262
(<i> reporters clamoring</i>)

790
00:30:15,297 --> 00:30:17,537
MAN: Mr. Ziegler.

00:30:20,085 --> 00:30:21,918
(<i> siren blares</i>)

792
00:30:21,954 --> 00:30:22,919
Ron?

793
00:30:22,955 --> 00:30:23,920
Hey, Toby.

794
00:30:23,956 --> 00:30:26,256
I heard they're about
to take him off bypass.

795
00:30:26,291 --> 00:30:27,257
Pretty soon, yeah.

796
00:30:27,292 --> 00:30:29,270
Listen, can I talk to
you for a second? Yeah.

797
00:30:29,294 --> 00:30:31,272
Sergeant, I want those
people on that corner

798
00:30:31,296 --> 00:30:32,941
Yes, sir. Backed
up another 200 feet.

799
00:30:32,965 --> 00:30:34,097
And if they move in again,

800
00:30:34,132 --> 00:30:35,582
handcuff them to
a parking meter.

801
00:30:35,618 --> 00:30:36,600
How's your hand?

802
00:30:36,636 --> 00:30:37,601
It's fine.

803
00:30:37,637 --> 00:30:38,935
You should be home.

804
00:30:38,971 --> 00:30:40,103
What's on your mind?

805
00:30:40,139 --> 00:30:42,039
C.J.'s starting to
get some questions

806
00:30:42,074 --> 00:30:45,075
about why the President's
exit wasn't covered in Rosslyn.

807
00:30:45,110 --> 00:30:47,422
Secret Service doesn't
comment on procedure.

808
00:30:47,446 --> 00:30:50,947
Yeah. Ron, a few weeks after
the President was sworn in,

809
00:30:50,983 --> 00:30:53,284
you got a memo
about his protection.

810
00:30:53,319 --> 00:30:54,652
Yeah?

811
00:30:54,687 --> 00:30:57,354
It said, he wanted to enter
and exit in the open air.

812
00:30:57,390 --> 00:30:58,689
He didn't like the feeling

813
00:30:58,724 --> 00:31:00,691
of traveling around
in an armored tank.

814
00:31:00,726 --> 00:31:01,692
Yeah.

815
00:31:01,727 --> 00:31:02,759
Specifically, it said

816
00:31:02,795 --> 00:31:05,296
he wouldn't use the tent
or the canopy anymore.

817
00:31:05,331 --> 00:31:06,297
Yeah.

818
00:31:06,332 --> 00:31:07,298
I wrote that memo

819
00:31:07,333 --> 00:31:09,499
and the President
signed it at my urging.

820
00:31:09,534 --> 00:31:10,500
I know.

821
00:31:10,535 --> 00:31:11,746
Ron, I don't think it's right

822
00:31:11,770 --> 00:31:13,148
that the Secret
Service be blamed

823
00:31:13,172 --> 00:31:14,404
for what happened last night.

824
00:31:14,439 --> 00:31:15,805
I want the Treasury Department

825
00:31:15,841 --> 00:31:17,269
to hand over my
memo to the press.

826
00:31:17,293 --> 00:31:18,436
No, we can't do that.

827
00:31:18,460 --> 00:31:20,427
There are going to
be a lot of questions.

828
00:31:20,463 --> 00:31:22,390
There are always a
lot of questions. Ron...

829
00:31:22,414 --> 00:31:23,592
Don't worry about it, Toby.

830
00:31:23,616 --> 00:31:25,583
It's not right.
You're the guys...

831
00:31:25,618 --> 00:31:26,750
(<i> sighs</i>)

832
00:31:26,786 --> 00:31:29,053
Look at your hand.
My hand is fine.

833
00:31:29,088 --> 00:31:30,365
Your hand is not fine. Toby...

834
00:31:30,389 --> 00:31:32,284
Let me go over there and
tell them it was my fault.

835
00:31:32,308 --> 00:31:33,724
It wasn't your fault.

836
00:31:33,759 --> 00:31:35,370
Ron... It wasn't your fault.

837
00:31:35,394 --> 00:31:36,738
It wasn't Gina's fault.

838
00:31:36,762 --> 00:31:38,573
It wasn't Charlie's fault.

839
00:31:38,597 --> 00:31:40,008
It wasn't anybody's fault, Toby.

840
00:31:40,032 --> 00:31:41,143
It was an act of madmen.

841
00:31:41,167 --> 00:31:42,995
You think a tent was
going to stop them?

842
00:31:43,019 --> 00:31:44,762
We got the President in a car,

843
00:31:44,786 --> 00:31:46,198
we got Zoey in the car,

844
00:31:46,222 --> 00:31:48,433
and at 150 yards
and five stories up,

845
00:31:48,457 --> 00:31:50,785
the shooters were
down in 9.2 seconds

846
00:31:50,809 --> 00:31:53,610
after the first shot was fired.

847
00:31:53,646 --> 00:31:56,942
I would never let you not
let me protect the President.

848
00:31:56,966 --> 00:31:58,910
You tell us you
don't like something,

849
00:31:58,934 --> 00:32:00,679
we figure out something else.

850
00:32:00,703 --> 00:32:02,836
It was an act of madmen.

851
00:32:02,872 --> 00:32:06,573
Anyway, the Secret Service
doesn't comment on procedure.

852
00:32:06,626 --> 00:32:07,925
Okay.

853
00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:10,293
Good job last night.

854
00:32:10,329 --> 00:32:11,829
Thank you.

855
00:32:22,108 --> 00:32:24,058
(<i> sighs</i>)

856
00:32:24,093 --> 00:32:28,395
Secret Service agents carry a
weapon called a .357 SIG-Sauer.

857
00:32:28,431 --> 00:32:31,014
The agents on the roof
shot the two gunmen

858
00:32:31,049 --> 00:32:34,500
with .726 caliber rifles
that are referred to as J.A.R.

859
00:32:34,536 --> 00:32:38,021
which, believe it or not,
stands for Just Another Rifle.

860
00:32:38,056 --> 00:32:40,708
They're made
specifically and exclusively

861
00:32:40,743 --> 00:32:42,710
for the Secret Service.

862
00:32:42,745 --> 00:32:45,212
I wanted to mention... Leo?

863
00:32:45,247 --> 00:32:48,865
This is our fifth press
briefing since midnight

864
00:32:48,900 --> 00:32:50,567
and obviously there's one story

865
00:32:50,602 --> 00:32:53,486
that's going to be dominating
the news around the world

866
00:32:53,522 --> 00:32:54,654
for the next few days,

867
00:32:54,690 --> 00:32:56,757
and, uh, it would
be easy to think that

868
00:32:56,792 --> 00:32:59,526
President Bartlet, Joshua
Lyman and Stephanie Abbott

869
00:32:59,561 --> 00:33:01,539
were the only people
who were victims

870
00:33:01,563 --> 00:33:02,963
of a gun crime last night.

871
00:33:02,998 --> 00:33:04,131
They weren't.

872
00:33:04,166 --> 00:33:06,533
Marks Davis and Sheila
Evans of Philadelphia

873
00:33:06,568 --> 00:33:08,352
were killed by a gun last night.

874
00:33:08,387 --> 00:33:12,072
He was a biology teacher
and she was a nursing student.

875
00:33:12,107 --> 00:33:13,774
Tina Bishop and Belinda Larkin

876
00:33:13,809 --> 00:33:15,776
were killed with
a gun last night.

877
00:33:15,811 --> 00:33:17,127
They were 12.

878
00:33:17,162 --> 00:33:19,763
There were 36
homicides last night,

879
00:33:19,798 --> 00:33:21,832
480 sexual assaults,

880
00:33:21,867 --> 00:33:25,101
3,411 robberies,

881
00:33:25,137 --> 00:33:28,438
3,685 aggravated assaults,

882
00:33:28,473 --> 00:33:29,756
all at gunpoint.

883
00:33:29,791 --> 00:33:32,292
And if anyone thinks those
crimes could've been prevented,

884
00:33:32,328 --> 00:33:34,439
if the victims themselves
had been carrying guns,

885
00:33:34,463 --> 00:33:35,862
I'd only remind you

886
00:33:35,897 --> 00:33:39,266
that the President of the
United States was shot last night

887
00:33:39,301 --> 00:33:42,102
while surrounded by the
best trained armed guards

888
00:33:42,138 --> 00:33:44,187
in the history of the world.

889
00:33:44,223 --> 00:33:46,457
Back to the briefing.

890
00:33:46,492 --> 00:33:47,891
She's good.

891
00:33:47,926 --> 00:33:49,560
Yes, she is.

892
00:33:49,595 --> 00:33:50,894
Leo...

893
00:33:50,929 --> 00:33:52,507
I'm going to the hospital.

894
00:33:52,531 --> 00:33:54,175
Why don't you ride with me?

895
00:33:54,199 --> 00:33:56,166
SAM: <i>We're starting to get</i>

896
00:33:56,201 --> 00:33:57,450
some good exit polling in

897
00:33:57,486 --> 00:33:59,231
from Stark County
and Rock Island.

898
00:33:59,255 --> 00:34:00,220
LEO: How good?

899
00:34:00,256 --> 00:34:02,567
We're running at 53 to
58 with the undecideds

900
00:34:02,591 --> 00:34:05,070
from 72 hours ago in
the 12th, 14th and 15th.

901
00:34:05,094 --> 00:34:06,059
That's the money.

902
00:34:06,095 --> 00:34:07,360
DeWitt County, Cumberland.

903
00:34:07,396 --> 00:34:08,774
Yeah. Who are you talking to?

904
00:34:08,798 --> 00:34:10,363
I'm, um, talking to nobody.

905
00:34:10,399 --> 00:34:11,965
There's no one at my house.

906
00:34:12,001 --> 00:34:12,966
What's going on?

907
00:34:13,002 --> 00:34:14,534
Nothing. My dad
had his chemo today

908
00:34:14,569 --> 00:34:16,748
and these exit polls are
going to cheer him up.

909
00:34:16,772 --> 00:34:20,674
Sam says we got the 72-hour
undecideds in the 14th and 15th.

910
00:34:20,709 --> 00:34:24,077
Leo, is there any food in
this room that isn't fried?

911
00:34:24,113 --> 00:34:26,892
Well, if there is, let's get
rid of it. I'm not kidding.

912
00:34:26,916 --> 00:34:29,394
There's good exits from
Stark County and Rock Island.

913
00:34:29,418 --> 00:34:30,901
How good? Good.

914
00:34:30,936 --> 00:34:32,269
Leo, what the hell is this?

915
00:34:32,304 --> 00:34:34,115
That's Sam's draft
of your victory...

916
00:34:34,139 --> 00:34:37,502
"I congratulate my opponent on a
well-fought campaign in Illinois"?

917
00:34:37,526 --> 00:34:38,769
You don't want to
congratulate him?

918
00:34:38,793 --> 00:34:40,127
Yes, I want to congratulate him,

919
00:34:40,162 --> 00:34:41,807
but I'd like to call
him by his name.

920
00:34:41,831 --> 00:34:43,130
Are we back to this crap again?

921
00:34:43,165 --> 00:34:45,632
Leo, I want to go over
this whole thing with you.

922
00:34:45,668 --> 00:34:46,811
Excuse me.

923
00:34:46,835 --> 00:34:49,119
BARTLET: It's the
exact same crap

924
00:34:49,154 --> 00:34:50,120
all over again!

925
00:34:50,155 --> 00:34:51,187
It's amateur hour!

926
00:34:51,223 --> 00:34:52,122
Damn student...

927
00:34:52,157 --> 00:34:53,835
You can say it, you know.

928
00:34:53,859 --> 00:34:56,593
It's not like I haven't
heard it before.

929
00:34:56,628 --> 00:35:00,214
Your husband's a real
son of bitch, Mrs. Bartlet.

930
00:35:02,117 --> 00:35:04,162
He doesn't like being handled.

931
00:35:04,186 --> 00:35:05,752
Well, I think if
he looked around,

932
00:35:05,787 --> 00:35:07,654
he'd see that nobody
is handling him.

933
00:35:09,558 --> 00:35:11,624
He's not ready yet, Josh.

934
00:35:11,660 --> 00:35:13,610
He's terrified.

935
00:35:13,645 --> 00:35:16,663
Well, is he going to<i> be</i> ready?

936
00:35:16,699 --> 00:35:19,783
You bet your ass he will.

937
00:35:19,818 --> 00:35:21,546
In the meantime,

938
00:35:21,570 --> 00:35:24,037
you want to kick
something, kick me.

939
00:35:25,574 --> 00:35:27,218

943
00:35:35,918 --> 00:35:38,051

948
00:35:45,460 --> 00:35:47,060
Yes! Hey!

949
00:35:47,095 --> 00:35:48,261
Way to go.

950
00:35:48,297 --> 00:35:49,396
Nice Job.

951
00:35:49,431 --> 00:35:50,897
Now let's get

952
00:35:50,933 --> 00:35:52,032
to California.

953
00:35:52,067 --> 00:35:53,844
Leo, we got to
replace this music!

954
00:35:53,868 --> 00:35:56,403
We got to replace it with
some Doobie Brothers!

955
00:35:56,438 --> 00:35:58,283
Josh... You got to
get happy, Donna.

956
00:35:58,307 --> 00:36:00,118
You just won the
Illinois Primary.

957
00:36:00,142 --> 00:36:01,874
No, Josh... Come, dance with me.

958
00:36:01,910 --> 00:36:03,343
No, Josh, your father died.

is in his suite
refining his remarks.

962

He's due to make an
appearance here any moment.

963
00:36:12,437 --> 00:36:14,404
Just a little under
an hour ago now,

964
00:36:14,439 --> 00:36:16,439
this room went
absolutely volcanic

965
00:36:16,475 --> 00:36:18,408
when the announcement
was made...

FEMALE RECORDING: Welcome
to O'Hare International Airport.

967
00:36:25,717 --> 00:36:29,586
We'd like to remind you
this is a smoke-free airport.

968
00:36:33,725 --> 00:36:35,192
Josh?

969
00:36:36,929 --> 00:36:38,228
Governor.

970
00:36:38,264 --> 00:36:39,729
Your father died, Josh.

971
00:36:39,765 --> 00:36:40,976
I can't believe it.

972
00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:43,666
Yeah. Governor,
you-you shouldn't be here.

973
00:36:43,702 --> 00:36:45,068
What happened?

974
00:36:46,338 --> 00:36:47,854
He, uh,

975
00:36:47,890 --> 00:36:51,758
went in for his chemotherapy
and he unexpectedly developed

976
00:36:51,794 --> 00:36:53,526
what's called a
pulmonary embolism.

977
00:36:53,561 --> 00:36:54,527
It's a...

978
00:36:54,562 --> 00:36:55,862
It's a blood clot.

979
00:36:55,898 --> 00:36:56,997
Yeah.

980
00:36:57,032 --> 00:36:59,866
It went to his heart and
there was cardiac arrest.

981
00:36:59,902 --> 00:37:02,269
Yeah...

982
00:37:02,304 --> 00:37:03,837
Yeah.

983
00:37:03,872 --> 00:37:05,238
Governor, you should...

984
00:37:05,274 --> 00:37:07,808
you should really get
back to the ballroom

985
00:37:07,843 --> 00:37:10,543
so you can get on a
plane and get to California.

986
00:37:10,578 --> 00:37:12,312
He was a lawyer?

987
00:37:12,347 --> 00:37:14,281
Yeah. A litigator.

988
00:37:14,316 --> 00:37:15,994
Did he like that
you were in politics?

989
00:37:16,018 --> 00:37:19,186
I think he would've
liked grandchildren more.

990
00:37:19,221 --> 00:37:21,154
He would've.

991
00:37:21,190 --> 00:37:23,190
He liked that I was
working for you.

992
00:37:23,225 --> 00:37:25,558
He liked that we were
starting to do well.

993
00:37:25,593 --> 00:37:27,127
He would've liked tonight.

994
00:37:29,798 --> 00:37:32,032
At least his friends and
neighbors will be spared

995
00:37:32,067 --> 00:37:33,834
all the... you know...

996
00:37:33,869 --> 00:37:36,080
He would've been doing
some bragging right now?

997
00:37:36,104 --> 00:37:38,538
Yeah. Your name wouldn't
have come up, by the way.

998
00:37:38,573 --> 00:37:40,673
"My son won the
Illinois Primary tonight."

999
00:37:44,446 --> 00:37:47,613
Three more hours, he
would've been able to say that.

1000
00:37:47,649 --> 00:37:50,884
He'd have been proud.

1001
00:37:50,919 --> 00:37:53,386
He was already.

1002
00:37:53,421 --> 00:37:55,200
Trust me, Josh. I'm a father.

1003
00:37:55,224 --> 00:37:57,657
He was already.

1004
00:38:01,513 --> 00:38:03,012
I appreciate that, Governor.

1005
00:38:03,047 --> 00:38:04,948
You should really
get back to the hotel.

1006
00:38:04,983 --> 00:38:07,267
Nah, I'm okay.

1007
00:38:07,302 --> 00:38:09,902
Sir, not that I don't appreciate
your having come down here,

1008
00:38:09,938 --> 00:38:11,538
but there's a
ballroom full of people

1009
00:38:11,573 --> 00:38:12,872
waiting for a victory speech.

1010
00:38:12,907 --> 00:38:14,874
They'll wait.

1011
00:38:14,909 --> 00:38:18,010
Yeah, they will, but the
people watching television won't.

1012
00:38:20,682 --> 00:38:23,083
I've been a real
jackass to you, Josh.

1013
00:38:23,118 --> 00:38:25,585
Well... To everybody.

1014
00:38:25,620 --> 00:38:29,689
Toby Ziegler, C.J.
Cregg, Sam Seaborn...

1015
00:38:29,724 --> 00:38:31,802
Yeah? Don't think I don't
know what you gave up

1016
00:38:31,826 --> 00:38:33,393
to work for this campaign

1017
00:38:33,428 --> 00:38:35,962
and don't think I
don't know your value.

1018
00:38:35,997 --> 00:38:38,764
And I'll never make
you think I don't again.

1019
00:38:40,969 --> 00:38:42,713
You got to be a little impressed

1020
00:38:42,737 --> 00:38:44,549

They're calling my flight.

1024
00:38:50,178 --> 00:38:52,479
You want me to go with you?

1025
00:38:52,514 --> 00:38:53,813
Go with me?

1026
00:38:53,848 --> 00:38:55,826
Maybe you want some
company on the plane.

1027
00:38:55,850 --> 00:38:58,451
I can get a ticket
and go with you.

1028
00:38:58,487 --> 00:39:00,120
Governor...

1029
00:39:00,155 --> 00:39:02,122
California.

1030
00:39:02,157 --> 00:39:04,157
You have to go to the ballroom

1031
00:39:04,192 --> 00:39:06,726
and give a victory
speech in prime time

1032
00:39:06,761 --> 00:39:08,161
and go to California.

1033
00:39:08,196 --> 00:39:09,996
I guess you're right.

1034
00:39:10,031 --> 00:39:11,297
You<i> guess</i> I'm right?

1035
00:39:11,333 --> 00:39:14,834
Listen to me, Governor, if
you don't lose this election,

1036
00:39:14,869 --> 00:39:18,571
it isn't going to be because
you didn't try hard enough.

1037
00:39:18,607 --> 00:39:21,508
But it was nice of you to ask.

1038
00:39:25,247 --> 00:39:26,979
Thank you. I appreciate it.

They're calling your flight.

1041
00:40:01,433 --> 00:40:04,066
Is he going to be all right?

1042
00:40:06,070 --> 00:40:07,704
He's going to be fine.

1043
00:40:07,739 --> 00:40:09,238
Good.

1044
00:40:14,479 --> 00:40:16,279
Leo...

1045
00:40:16,314 --> 00:40:19,282
Yeah?

He said, "What's next?"
