Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:01:27,772 --> 00:01:29,489
- Unbelievable.
- Unbelievable.
2
00:01:29,525 --> 00:01:32,060
That is a subpoena for a reporter
to appear before a grand jury.
3
00:01:32,061 --> 00:01:34,328
If they had grand juries in East Germany
and East Germany still existed,
4
00:01:34,362 --> 00:01:35,729
then that's where we'd be right now.
5
00:01:35,781 --> 00:01:37,281
Put it away, Rebecca.
6
00:01:37,316 --> 00:01:39,400
And nobody says a word about this to anyone tonight.
7
00:01:39,402 --> 00:01:42,286
- What happens now?
- Monday morning, he'll appear before a grand jury.
8
00:01:42,320 --> 00:01:44,871
He'll be asked to name his source and he'll say...
9
00:01:44,906 --> 00:01:46,908
- No problem.
- He'll refuse.
10
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:48,742
Tuesday morning, the prosecutor...
11
00:01:48,745 --> 00:01:50,411
Who wants Will's head hung in his den.
12
00:01:50,412 --> 00:01:53,664
...will go to a judge to get an order
for Will to answer the question.
13
00:01:53,715 --> 00:01:55,466
Wednesday morning, armed with the order,
14
00:01:55,501 --> 00:01:58,385
the prosecutor will ask him again and he'll refuse again.
15
00:01:58,420 --> 00:02:01,171
Thursday morning, we appear before the same judge,
16
00:02:01,256 --> 00:02:03,007
who the prosecutor will inform that Will has refused
17
00:02:03,057 --> 00:02:04,641
to comply with a court order and then...
18
00:02:04,676 --> 00:02:07,561
- Everybody goes home.
- Because you're too big to jail?
19
00:02:07,596 --> 00:02:09,931
- That's right.
- Will, you've been wrong about everything.
20
00:02:09,981 --> 00:02:12,400
- Every step of the way.
- Do you really think this administration is going
21
00:02:12,433 --> 00:02:14,268
- to lock up a reporter...
- I didn't think they'd raid a newsroom and that happened.
22
00:02:14,318 --> 00:02:16,319
...who exposed a disinformation campaign that resulted...
23
00:02:16,354 --> 00:02:18,823
I didn't think Neal would have to flee extradition,
and Neal's in Venezuela.
24
00:02:18,856 --> 00:02:20,942
And I didn't think they'd have the sack to subpoena you,
25
00:02:20,943 --> 00:02:24,111
but you've just been served by a kid in a rented tuxedo.
26
00:02:24,114 --> 00:02:25,829
And the reason the kid was wearing a tuxedo
27
00:02:25,864 --> 00:02:27,747
was because they don't want to make any noise.
28
00:02:29,251 --> 00:02:31,752
Or maybe they sent out a press release.
29
00:02:31,787 --> 00:02:33,871
No shit.
30
00:02:33,921 --> 00:02:36,123
- You know what this is gonna be?
- Yeah.
31
00:02:36,175 --> 00:02:37,792
"Will McAvoy, hypocrite in a monkey suit."
32
00:02:37,793 --> 00:02:40,010
It's been posted on Carnivore,
but it's been picked up by everybody.
33
00:02:40,045 --> 00:02:41,711
Carnivore? It was posted on Carnivore?
34
00:02:41,763 --> 00:02:43,014
Also, what the hell is Carnivore?
35
00:02:43,048 --> 00:02:45,849
It's a new website that just got its first scoop.
36
00:02:45,884 --> 00:02:49,603
"ACN won't be attending the Saturnalia
of incestuous ingratiation..."
37
00:02:49,638 --> 00:02:51,722
- I remember that.
- "That does little to instill confidence
38
00:02:51,772 --> 00:02:55,143
in the public that the press isn't
ensorcelled by the powerful."
39
00:02:55,194 --> 00:02:57,861
- I have to go find someone. Don.
- Hmm?
40
00:02:57,896 --> 00:02:59,396
Lead the team on the Kundu story
41
00:02:59,448 --> 00:03:01,481
which has to be on the air by Wednesday night.
42
00:03:01,532 --> 00:03:03,533
That's in four... Why does it have to
be on the air by Wednesday night?
43
00:03:03,568 --> 00:03:05,318
Because it does.
44
00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:08,038
- You and I need to talk.
- Yeah. Not here.
45
00:03:11,493 --> 00:03:13,578
Will, I'm Mimi Tassler with BuzzFeed.
46
00:03:13,628 --> 00:03:15,462
- Nice to meet you.
- Any comment on the story in Carnivore?
47
00:03:15,497 --> 00:03:16,963
I was wrong about the Correspondents' Dinner.
48
00:03:16,998 --> 00:03:19,332
I forgot what a great time I always have.
49
00:03:19,384 --> 00:03:21,169
Will, I'm Zachary Webber with Politico.
50
00:03:21,219 --> 00:03:22,836
Do you want to comment on the story?
51
00:03:22,838 --> 00:03:24,588
Sure. I probably need to read it first.
52
00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:26,507
- I'm going back to the hotel.
- You can't.
53
00:03:26,557 --> 00:03:28,341
- No, I can't stay here.
- Think for a second.
54
00:03:28,393 --> 00:03:30,093
- What's the reason we came here in...
- Pruit.
55
00:03:30,145 --> 00:03:31,679
We have to sit with Pruit.
56
00:03:31,681 --> 00:03:34,147
I've had a minute with him and so far it's going badly.
57
00:03:34,182 --> 00:03:35,816
You don't think he's going to buy the network?
58
00:03:35,850 --> 00:03:38,269
No, I think he is.
59
00:03:38,319 --> 00:03:41,021
- I've never heard of Carnivore.
- It's new.
60
00:03:41,024 --> 00:03:42,522
Why do they have names like that?
61
00:03:42,525 --> 00:03:45,026
Carnivore, Vulture, Beast, Gawker.
62
00:03:45,076 --> 00:03:46,860
I don't know.
63
00:03:46,912 --> 00:03:49,447
And why do gossip columnists always
sound like gossip columnists?
64
00:03:49,497 --> 00:03:52,866
Finke, Weasel, Snitch, Frump.
65
00:03:52,918 --> 00:03:54,534
I'm not familiar
66
00:03:54,586 --> 00:03:56,871
with Snitch, Weasel, and Frump. What do you read?
67
00:03:56,921 --> 00:03:58,622
Well, I read Jonathan Weasel on a regular basis
68
00:03:58,674 --> 00:04:00,457
before clicking over to AngrySpiders.com.
69
00:04:00,508 --> 00:04:03,211
- Anyway, my answer to your question...
- Hey!
70
00:04:03,212 --> 00:04:05,062
You'll tell me later.
71
00:04:05,097 --> 00:04:07,548
- We were thinking about calling it a night.
- It's early.
72
00:04:07,598 --> 00:04:10,183
Don and I were just given a new deadline on a story.
73
00:04:10,218 --> 00:04:12,186
- What's the deadline?
- Wednesday night.
74
00:04:12,221 --> 00:04:14,472
- Gonna rent a car and drive back to New York tonight.
- I'll go with you.
75
00:04:14,522 --> 00:04:16,940
Maggie and I were just discussing an ethical dilemma.
76
00:04:16,975 --> 00:04:19,226
She has a friend who's dating a woman
77
00:04:19,228 --> 00:04:21,728
who just started writing for a website called Carnivore.
78
00:04:21,779 --> 00:04:23,898
- We should go.
- I just want to hear what they think.
79
00:04:23,949 --> 00:04:26,901
Maggie's friend thinks that websites like this are toxic
80
00:04:26,903 --> 00:04:28,903
and are poisoning our national conversation and culture,
81
00:04:28,954 --> 00:04:30,487
but he likes the girl.
82
00:04:30,538 --> 00:04:33,908
So my question is, would he date a drug dealer?
83
00:04:37,329 --> 00:04:40,081
How would you like to handle this?
84
00:04:40,082 --> 00:04:41,665
- Wait.
- Yeah.
85
00:04:41,716 --> 00:04:43,584
- She works for Carnivore.
- Of course she works for Carnivore.
86
00:04:43,586 --> 00:04:46,086
I just said you'll tell me later as I waved them over.
87
00:04:46,137 --> 00:04:48,139
How could you not pick up on that cue?
88
00:04:48,173 --> 00:04:50,591
- I've never been good at that.
- You're terrible at that.
89
00:04:50,593 --> 00:04:54,644
Yeah, so we're gonna go get that
car and pick you up at the hotel.
90
00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:56,846
Cool. I...
91
00:04:58,567 --> 00:05:00,735
- Listen.
- Not yet.
92
00:05:05,072 --> 00:05:07,658
- Drug dealer?
- He said that. I didn't say that.
93
00:05:07,692 --> 00:05:09,110
You're talking about this with Maggie?
94
00:05:09,161 --> 00:05:11,028
- It came up at work.
- What came up?
95
00:05:11,079 --> 00:05:13,197
It just...
96
00:05:13,247 --> 00:05:14,615
Your new job.
97
00:05:14,617 --> 00:05:16,533
Your disapproval of me came up at work?
98
00:05:16,584 --> 00:05:18,369
The page view incentives in your contract.
99
00:05:18,420 --> 00:05:20,288
They're bonuses, you judgmental prick.
100
00:05:20,290 --> 00:05:21,788
And why don't you believe in me?
101
00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:23,707
Why do you assume that as soon as I take a job like this,
102
00:05:23,759 --> 00:05:25,959
- I'm gonna be an asshole?
- I don't think that you're...
103
00:05:25,961 --> 00:05:28,545
Yes, you do. Why?
104
00:05:30,548 --> 00:05:32,350
How did Carnivore get that story about Will?
105
00:05:32,384 --> 00:05:34,518
- Did you see my byline on it?
- No.
106
00:05:34,552 --> 00:05:37,805
No. 2,000 reporters and he thought
he was going to get away with it?
107
00:05:37,807 --> 00:05:39,439
He didn't knock over a bank.
108
00:05:39,473 --> 00:05:42,360
He sang an aria about how messed
up the Correspondents' Dinner was,
109
00:05:42,394 --> 00:05:44,312
said ACN wasn't going and then showed up.
110
00:05:44,314 --> 00:05:47,447
You weren't aware of the aria until I told you about it.
111
00:05:47,481 --> 00:05:50,483
That story was waiting and ready to
go and I'm the one who leaked it.
112
00:05:50,485 --> 00:05:51,819
It wasn't going to be a secret.
113
00:05:51,821 --> 00:05:53,987
You had nothing to do with it?
114
00:05:57,074 --> 00:05:58,875
I told them what to look for.
115
00:06:00,411 --> 00:06:03,163
- Yeah.
- If I hadn't, I would be betraying my job,
116
00:06:03,165 --> 00:06:04,665
and you know that.
117
00:06:04,716 --> 00:06:07,752
You know that. It's horrible that I got it from you, but...
118
00:06:07,802 --> 00:06:11,004
Listen, the new HR guy at AWM, Wyatt Earp...
119
00:06:11,055 --> 00:06:13,089
- Not his name.
- Wyatt Geary.
120
00:06:13,141 --> 00:06:15,975
He's onto us, me and Sloan, and he wants me bad.
121
00:06:16,011 --> 00:06:18,728
He's gonna come asking questions,
and when he does, you say...
122
00:06:18,764 --> 00:06:20,598
Don and Sloan are just colleagues.
123
00:06:20,649 --> 00:06:22,600
Should you guys be standing next to each other?
124
00:06:22,651 --> 00:06:24,100
Yeah, what are you doing standing next to me?
125
00:06:24,151 --> 00:06:25,935
I really don't know.
126
00:06:25,987 --> 00:06:28,355
Scatter.
127
00:06:33,444 --> 00:06:35,946
I'm sorry.
128
00:06:35,997 --> 00:06:38,499
I'm sorry, too.
129
00:06:38,533 --> 00:06:41,252
- I get it.
- Do you?
130
00:06:45,590 --> 00:06:47,957
- Where have you been?
- Looking for someone.
131
00:06:48,009 --> 00:06:49,677
We're supposed to be talking to Pruit.
132
00:06:49,711 --> 00:06:52,379
Listen, a little while ago...
133
00:06:53,298 --> 00:06:54,848
- Nothing.
- You sure?
134
00:06:54,882 --> 00:06:56,850
Yeah. Let's talk to Pruit.
135
00:07:07,696 --> 00:07:09,562
Lucas.
136
00:07:09,564 --> 00:07:12,565
Books are like the new art, don't you think?
137
00:07:12,617 --> 00:07:15,569
Yes. No. I have no idea what you mean.
138
00:07:15,620 --> 00:07:17,404
We don't need them anymore, but they look nice.
139
00:07:17,406 --> 00:07:19,656
- We don't need books?
- Not on paper.
140
00:07:19,707 --> 00:07:22,959
I'll send you a Kindle, Grandpa Joe. You'll like it.
141
00:07:22,994 --> 00:07:25,379
- I'm Will McAvoy.
- MacKenzie McHale.
142
00:07:25,413 --> 00:07:27,331
If you say you're not gonna come to a party
143
00:07:27,382 --> 00:07:29,632
and you say it loud to a million people,
144
00:07:29,668 --> 00:07:32,586
you can't show up to the party.
145
00:07:32,670 --> 00:07:35,639
He came to talk to you because you said
you wanted to meet him at the party.
146
00:07:35,673 --> 00:07:38,475
Why did you want to meet him at the party?
147
00:07:38,509 --> 00:07:40,761
- Are you fucking kidding me?
- Take it easy.
148
00:07:40,762 --> 00:07:43,480
I won't take it easy. The position you put him in,
149
00:07:43,514 --> 00:07:44,932
all of us, for a laugh?
150
00:07:44,983 --> 00:07:47,735
It was not for a laugh. Don't be a child.
151
00:07:47,769 --> 00:07:49,737
It was an exercise of power.
152
00:07:49,771 --> 00:07:51,771
You shoved the Lansings around for years
153
00:07:51,822 --> 00:07:54,774
and I wanted to let you know right off the
bat that I'm not impressed by ratings.
154
00:07:54,776 --> 00:07:58,661
Second, I want you to know that
I'm not in this for the trophy.
155
00:07:58,697 --> 00:08:01,031
I'm in it for the ratings. I'm just kidding.
156
00:08:01,081 --> 00:08:03,451
But really, second place does nothing for me.
157
00:08:03,502 --> 00:08:05,668
Good, 'cause as of last week, we're in fourth.
158
00:08:05,704 --> 00:08:07,788
I don't know how you managed to swing that.
159
00:08:07,790 --> 00:08:09,790
I was very proud of our Boston coverage.
160
00:08:09,791 --> 00:08:12,625
Proud is generally what people
pretend they are when they've lost.
161
00:08:12,627 --> 00:08:14,127
Cryptic is generally what people are
162
00:08:14,129 --> 00:08:17,047
when they're trying to pretend
they possess supernatural powers.
163
00:08:17,098 --> 00:08:19,350
Okay, we've gotten off to a rough start.
164
00:08:19,384 --> 00:08:22,136
Lucas, we're naturally curious
about your plans for the network.
165
00:08:22,187 --> 00:08:24,471
What if I told you you could be the number one news network
166
00:08:24,523 --> 00:08:26,055
and change the world at the same time?
167
00:08:26,106 --> 00:08:27,975
Change it into what?
168
00:08:27,976 --> 00:08:30,644
A place where people say snappy, sardonic things like that.
169
00:08:30,646 --> 00:08:33,647
Hey, we really have to do better at
talking to each other right now.
170
00:08:33,697 --> 00:08:35,482
- Who are you looking for?
- Me?
171
00:08:35,533 --> 00:08:37,283
You've glanced around a couple of times.
172
00:08:37,318 --> 00:08:39,620
- Nothing, I'm here.
- Is that accent real?
173
00:08:39,653 --> 00:08:40,955
Can we please cut the shit?
174
00:08:40,989 --> 00:08:42,740
I'm gonna infuse ACN with tens of millions
175
00:08:42,790 --> 00:08:44,792
of new dollars in your budget. How does that sound?
176
00:08:44,826 --> 00:08:46,994
I'm gonna get 18 to 25-year-olds to watch the news
177
00:08:47,044 --> 00:08:49,746
so it can support itself and so it doesn't die when you do.
178
00:08:49,798 --> 00:08:51,499
The news gathering and newscasts
179
00:08:51,549 --> 00:08:53,334
will have tentacles in every reach of the Internet.
180
00:08:53,384 --> 00:08:56,470
Interactives, podcasts, live streams,
Tumblr, Facebook, Twitter.
181
00:08:56,504 --> 00:08:57,888
We'll make our audience reporters in the field
182
00:08:57,923 --> 00:09:00,508
through Instagram and Vine, Snapchat and blogs.
You still with me?
183
00:09:00,558 --> 00:09:02,142
Our users become the audience
184
00:09:02,177 --> 00:09:04,144
and our audience becomes contributors.
185
00:09:04,178 --> 00:09:05,479
That's my plan.
186
00:09:05,514 --> 00:09:08,515
Needless to say, I'm impressed by your indifference
187
00:09:08,518 --> 00:09:10,934
to talent, experience, and credentials.
188
00:09:10,985 --> 00:09:14,020
And I assume the absence of the words truth, trust,
189
00:09:14,072 --> 00:09:18,192
and professionalism in your mission
statement was an oversight.
190
00:09:18,243 --> 00:09:21,695
Your contempt for the second-rate
seems to be a contradiction, too,
191
00:09:21,697 --> 00:09:24,030
since you believe the best reporting
192
00:09:24,033 --> 00:09:26,033
is done by anyone with a phone
193
00:09:26,034 --> 00:09:28,284
and the time it takes to write "epic fail."
194
00:09:28,336 --> 00:09:31,071
And as an old guy, I've got a lot more respect
195
00:09:31,105 --> 00:09:33,374
for 18 to 25-year-olds than you do
196
00:09:33,424 --> 00:09:36,427
'cause I don't believe their heads will explode
197
00:09:36,461 --> 00:09:39,263
if you stop patronizing them for an hour a night
198
00:09:39,297 --> 00:09:41,682
and tell them what the fuck's going on in their lives
199
00:09:41,716 --> 00:09:44,384
and maybe even in the lives of other people.
200
00:09:44,386 --> 00:09:47,221
The air up on that pedestal must be pretty thin,
201
00:09:47,222 --> 00:09:48,889
'cause you are delusional, sir.
202
00:09:48,890 --> 00:09:52,559
If I am, I plan on staying that way.
203
00:09:52,562 --> 00:09:54,727
And my network's staying, too.
204
00:09:54,730 --> 00:09:57,313
We've got a problem now, you and me.
205
00:09:57,365 --> 00:09:59,399
Have a good evening.
206
00:10:11,312 --> 00:10:13,581
You knew that the documents were stolen by the source?
207
00:10:13,582 --> 00:10:15,666
- Yes, sir.
- You knew the documents were classified?
208
00:10:15,716 --> 00:10:18,586
- Yes, sir.
- Did Mr. Sampat tell you anything about the source?
209
00:10:18,636 --> 00:10:21,054
- Yes, sir.
- Did Mr. Sampat tell you his name?
210
00:10:21,088 --> 00:10:23,090
- Yes, sir.
- Will you tell us the name of your source?
211
00:10:23,091 --> 00:10:26,393
- No, sir.
- Let me phrase that differently.
212
00:10:26,427 --> 00:10:28,495
Would you tell the grand jury the name of the person
213
00:10:28,529 --> 00:10:31,432
you know to have stolen classified government documents
214
00:10:31,433 --> 00:10:33,734
containing secrets, which if made public,
215
00:10:33,768 --> 00:10:36,519
could calamitously threaten our national security?
216
00:10:36,571 --> 00:10:38,572
No, sir, I won't.
217
00:10:38,606 --> 00:10:41,991
At this time I'll excuse the grand
jury until 10:00 AM Wednesday,
218
00:10:42,027 --> 00:10:44,611
at which time I will return with a court order
219
00:10:44,614 --> 00:10:46,779
compelling the witness to answer that question.
220
00:10:46,831 --> 00:10:48,331
Thank you, ladies and gentlemen.
221
00:10:48,365 --> 00:10:50,451
And, Mr. McAvoy, you can step down.
222
00:11:05,299 --> 00:11:07,134
Hey.
223
00:11:07,135 --> 00:11:09,302
Does anybody know if they got that guy out of the country?
224
00:11:09,354 --> 00:11:11,938
The writer. The guy who wrote the fake story.
225
00:11:11,972 --> 00:11:14,140
Been over a week since the
government's known about the breach.
226
00:11:14,192 --> 00:11:15,359
They would have pulled him, right?
227
00:11:15,393 --> 00:11:18,195
You would think so, but we need to find out.
228
00:11:19,397 --> 00:11:22,032
Oh, come on!
229
00:11:22,067 --> 00:11:23,817
Come on in.
230
00:11:23,868 --> 00:11:25,852
Don't look at any of these papers, don't look down,
231
00:11:25,886 --> 00:11:28,072
- and don't ask anyone what they're doing.
- Got it.
232
00:11:28,123 --> 00:11:29,657
I just wanted to ask you in person
233
00:11:29,658 --> 00:11:32,826
why you haven't accepted my friend request on Instagram.
234
00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:37,130
It was the very next thing I was gonna do.
235
00:11:37,164 --> 00:11:39,216
- How about now?
- Sure.
236
00:11:39,250 --> 00:11:41,418
Gary, toss me my phone.
237
00:11:41,469 --> 00:11:43,504
Martin, can you read this over,
238
00:11:43,554 --> 00:11:45,505
and if it looks good to you, take it to Mac?
239
00:11:45,557 --> 00:11:47,341
Sure.
240
00:11:49,878 --> 00:11:52,346
- Accepted.
- Awesome.
241
00:11:56,100 --> 00:11:57,850
Come in.
242
00:11:57,852 --> 00:12:00,019
It's from Don and it says "Take to Sloan"
243
00:12:00,022 --> 00:12:01,554
and then it says "Sabbith" in quotes.
244
00:12:01,589 --> 00:12:03,573
I was told to read it.
Do you think it meant take to Sloan Sabbith...
245
00:12:03,607 --> 00:12:04,908
Was the new HR guy just down there?
246
00:12:04,942 --> 00:12:07,360
- Yeah, how did you know?
- It's his Instagram password.
247
00:12:10,999 --> 00:12:14,500
Nice try, but my mama didn't raise a
fool unless you count my brothers.
248
00:12:14,535 --> 00:12:16,953
So I don't know what we just did,
but I'm gonna go back to work.
249
00:12:17,004 --> 00:12:18,538
- Yeah.
- Hey.
250
00:12:18,590 --> 00:12:19,956
Have you been outside today?
251
00:12:20,008 --> 00:12:21,875
How do you think I got from where I live to where I work?
252
00:12:21,926 --> 00:12:23,543
- I just mean it's a gorgeous day.
- Shut up.
253
00:12:23,546 --> 00:12:24,878
All right.
254
00:12:24,928 --> 00:12:27,847
There has to be another way.
255
00:12:27,881 --> 00:12:31,118
There has to be another buyer
for this network in the next...
256
00:12:31,152 --> 00:12:33,553
- Few hours?
- Few days.
257
00:12:36,857 --> 00:12:39,359
Elon Musk, Larry Ellison, Antoinette Dodd,
258
00:12:39,394 --> 00:12:41,195
Michael... Michael Bloomberg?
259
00:12:41,229 --> 00:12:42,980
- Do you know any of those people?
- I know all of them.
260
00:12:43,030 --> 00:12:44,697
But Leona and Reese told you they exhausted
261
00:12:44,732 --> 00:12:46,232
all their options before they went to Pruit.
262
00:12:46,235 --> 00:12:48,869
They exhausted all their options for keeping control of AWM
263
00:12:48,903 --> 00:12:51,370
before selling us, but they didn't necessarily
264
00:12:51,405 --> 00:12:53,539
exhaust their options of who to sell us to.
265
00:12:53,575 --> 00:12:55,709
Look, I want what you want,
266
00:12:55,744 --> 00:12:58,162
but this is big business and you're a news director.
267
00:12:58,212 --> 00:12:59,495
You don't know what you're doing.
268
00:12:59,547 --> 00:13:01,048
You can't just write down names of rich people.
269
00:13:01,081 --> 00:13:03,049
I didn't just write down... Those are all people
270
00:13:03,083 --> 00:13:05,251
who would be interested in media buys.
271
00:13:05,254 --> 00:13:06,836
Elon Musk isn't interested.
272
00:13:06,888 --> 00:13:09,005
Michael Bloomberg has his own media company.
273
00:13:09,057 --> 00:13:11,475
Larry Ellison is busy winning the America's Cup.
274
00:13:11,509 --> 00:13:13,644
Toni Dodd...
275
00:13:15,179 --> 00:13:17,730
- Antoinette Dodd.
- What?
276
00:13:17,765 --> 00:13:20,183
- This is unbelievable.
- What?
277
00:13:20,235 --> 00:13:21,684
It's just... So help me Hannah...
278
00:13:21,735 --> 00:13:23,437
I read in Page Six, like, two weeks ago
279
00:13:23,438 --> 00:13:24,904
that Toni Dodd was looking to buy a media group.
280
00:13:24,938 --> 00:13:27,106
I remember because I thought,
281
00:13:27,109 --> 00:13:29,610
"This is exactly what happens to
Melanie Griffith in Working Girl."
282
00:13:29,611 --> 00:13:32,446
And, hand to God,
I was on the Staten Island Ferry at the time.
283
00:13:32,496 --> 00:13:34,530
But there was nothing I could do with that information,
284
00:13:34,581 --> 00:13:37,618
so my mind went to how good a young
Alec Baldwin was in the movie.
285
00:13:37,620 --> 00:13:40,003
And whatever happened to that Carly Simon song?
286
00:13:40,038 --> 00:13:42,121
You think Toni Dodd wants to buy a news network?
287
00:13:42,124 --> 00:13:44,707
Page Six wouldn't say it unless it was true.
288
00:13:44,759 --> 00:13:47,126
And she has in the area of $4 billion?
289
00:13:47,177 --> 00:13:49,712
That's not how it works. Nobody has $4 billion.
290
00:13:49,764 --> 00:13:51,465
But, yes, she has $4 billion.
291
00:13:51,515 --> 00:13:54,467
- Are you able to call her? She'll take your call?
- Yeah.
292
00:13:54,470 --> 00:13:58,138
You need to set up a meeting for her
and Leona as soon as humanly possible.
293
00:13:58,188 --> 00:14:00,941
Leona can't meet with another buyer
while she's negotiating with Pruit.
294
00:14:00,975 --> 00:14:03,777
Friendly, informal, off-the-record meeting.
295
00:14:03,812 --> 00:14:07,114
- Pruit will go away.
- Not fast or far enough.
296
00:14:07,148 --> 00:14:08,481
I know you don't like the guy, but...
297
00:14:08,533 --> 00:14:10,149
It doesn't matter that I don't like him.
298
00:14:10,201 --> 00:14:11,869
It matters that I'm scared of him.
299
00:14:11,903 --> 00:14:13,620
You were scared of Reese and Leona,
300
00:14:13,654 --> 00:14:15,188
but you turned them around.
301
00:14:15,222 --> 00:14:17,456
You'll fight with Pruit and you'll win.
302
00:14:17,491 --> 00:14:20,126
I don't want to fight with anybody, Sloan. I'm tired.
303
00:14:20,161 --> 00:14:22,129
I don't want to expand the definition of the news.
304
00:14:22,163 --> 00:14:23,496
I want to narrow it.
305
00:14:23,548 --> 00:14:26,416
We'll be right back at the beginning, only worse.
306
00:14:26,466 --> 00:14:28,634
I can't fight these fights with this guy.
307
00:14:28,669 --> 00:14:30,888
I won't win.
308
00:14:30,922 --> 00:14:32,840
We can meet with her.
309
00:14:34,142 --> 00:14:36,309
- You and me?
- Yeah.
310
00:14:36,344 --> 00:14:37,977
But quietly.
311
00:14:38,011 --> 00:14:39,929
'Cause there's one option worse than Pruit,
312
00:14:39,980 --> 00:14:43,517
and that's this place getting sold for
parts and a lot of people out of work.
313
00:14:43,519 --> 00:14:45,601
Very quietly.
314
00:14:45,653 --> 00:14:47,687
And now.
315
00:14:49,908 --> 00:14:52,491
- How'd it go?
- Exactly the way we said it would.
316
00:14:52,527 --> 00:14:54,076
Now Lasenthal goes to a judge
317
00:14:54,111 --> 00:14:56,113
to get court to compel Will to answer the question.
318
00:14:56,163 --> 00:14:58,782
Now, tell me what's happening in here.
319
00:14:58,832 --> 00:15:00,500
Tell me we'll be able to run the story by Wednesday night.
320
00:15:00,534 --> 00:15:02,168
We've got the motive, but we don't have the ringleader.
321
00:15:02,202 --> 00:15:03,669
The motive is what we thought it was?
322
00:15:03,705 --> 00:15:05,839
To disrupt and delay their elections. We've got that cold.
323
00:15:05,874 --> 00:15:08,125
Elections that would have yielded
a hard-line Islamic government.
324
00:15:08,176 --> 00:15:09,710
Democracy is good as long as we like the outcome.
325
00:15:09,744 --> 00:15:11,879
- Yes.
- How do you circle that square?
326
00:15:11,929 --> 00:15:13,880
By knowing that Islam is a religion
and not a form of government.
327
00:15:13,883 --> 00:15:16,549
- When it becomes one, it is fascism.
- And the 38 dead bodies?
328
00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:19,019
Are a bargain compared to what
it'll cost us in blood and money
329
00:15:19,052 --> 00:15:20,888
when we have to bomb the place five years from now
330
00:15:20,938 --> 00:15:22,306
because it's al-Qaeda's new home office.
331
00:15:22,356 --> 00:15:24,474
But we've got a different problem.
332
00:15:24,524 --> 00:15:26,726
The writer of the story, we think he's still on the ground.
333
00:15:26,729 --> 00:15:28,895
Don and I are each talking to a different source at State.
334
00:15:28,898 --> 00:15:31,480
When I asked my source if the writer was out,
he said, "I don't know. Is he?"
335
00:15:31,532 --> 00:15:33,366
They're trying to slow down the story.
336
00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:34,902
Then my guy said, "No, the writer is not out."
337
00:15:34,903 --> 00:15:37,403
- Do you believe him?
- 50-50.
338
00:15:37,455 --> 00:15:40,240
But when our story comes out that
this guy worked with the US,
339
00:15:40,290 --> 00:15:42,158
they're gonna slit the throats of
his children right in front of him
340
00:15:42,210 --> 00:15:43,876
and then drag them down Main Street,
341
00:15:43,912 --> 00:15:46,245
so I don't want to pick the wrong 50.
342
00:15:46,297 --> 00:15:49,249
- Extend your arbitrary deadline.
- It's not arbitrary.
343
00:15:49,299 --> 00:15:52,085
Work with State, get the guy and his family out today.
344
00:15:52,135 --> 00:15:55,672
- It's night in Kundu.
- The phones don't work at our embassy at night?
345
00:16:04,315 --> 00:16:07,017
- What are you working on?
- A piece.
346
00:16:10,938 --> 00:16:12,822
You're not allowed to tell me?
347
00:16:12,856 --> 00:16:14,857
I don't want to fight right now.
348
00:16:16,443 --> 00:16:18,662
I don't either.
349
00:16:18,696 --> 00:16:20,364
I'm really glad you said that.
350
00:16:21,331 --> 00:16:23,332
Do you mean that?
351
00:16:25,452 --> 00:16:27,837
I have to go back to the office tonight.
352
00:16:29,289 --> 00:16:32,125
We're crashing on a deadline I don't even understand.
353
00:16:32,126 --> 00:16:35,211
I just want to eat my sandwich near you for a while.
354
00:16:35,263 --> 00:16:38,966
Sometimes you say that and then you ambush me.
355
00:16:40,268 --> 00:16:42,219
What are you working on?
356
00:16:42,269 --> 00:16:44,638
My editor wants me to write more personally.
357
00:16:44,688 --> 00:16:46,605
- Like an op-ed?
- Yeah.
358
00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:49,058
- What's wrong with op-eds?
- Nothing.
359
00:16:49,110 --> 00:16:51,144
What are you writing about?
360
00:16:51,195 --> 00:16:53,145
I pitched a few, but the only one they liked
361
00:16:53,197 --> 00:16:55,532
was my experience with the Plan B pill.
362
00:16:57,818 --> 00:16:59,653
Cool.
363
00:17:01,905 --> 00:17:04,740
- Come on.
- I said cool.
364
00:17:04,791 --> 00:17:07,326
You said more than that.
What's wrong with writing in the first person?
365
00:17:07,377 --> 00:17:09,496
What's wrong with sex? And what's wrong with my new job?
366
00:17:09,547 --> 00:17:12,332
Hallie, I said cool.
367
00:17:12,334 --> 00:17:14,500
You're not going to give me a hard time about this?
368
00:17:16,003 --> 00:17:18,922
I'm your boyfriend. It is my role to support you.
369
00:17:18,972 --> 00:17:22,342
It's a role I'm grateful to have and I want to do it well.
370
00:17:24,095 --> 00:17:25,846
Thank you.
371
00:17:25,847 --> 00:17:28,265
- Sorry I jumped the gun.
- No problem.
372
00:17:40,744 --> 00:17:42,412
Does your piece begin, "Dear Penthouse,
373
00:17:42,447 --> 00:17:45,499
- I've never written a letter like this before"?
- Motherfucker!
374
00:18:04,719 --> 00:18:07,304
You know how this is gonna end, right?
375
00:18:07,355 --> 00:18:09,522
Please don't directly address my client.
376
00:18:09,557 --> 00:18:11,107
We're in chambers, Counselor.
377
00:18:11,142 --> 00:18:12,558
I don't care if we're in your fucking hot tub.
378
00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:15,278
Hey, I'm on a government salary. I barely have a bathtub.
379
00:18:15,313 --> 00:18:16,779
Good morning.
380
00:18:16,814 --> 00:18:18,981
- Morning, Judge.
- Good morning, sir.
381
00:18:19,032 --> 00:18:21,902
Does anybody need any coffee or anything?
382
00:18:21,952 --> 00:18:23,619
- No, thank you, Judge.
- No, thank you.
383
00:18:23,653 --> 00:18:26,405
Mr. Lasenthal, how can a man with your resume
384
00:18:26,407 --> 00:18:27,740
possibly let this happen?
385
00:18:27,791 --> 00:18:30,326
Your Honor, there's a limit to my ability
386
00:18:30,377 --> 00:18:32,244
to let or not let things happen.
387
00:18:32,247 --> 00:18:34,413
Not much of a limit.
388
00:18:34,415 --> 00:18:37,250
Mr. McAvoy is aware of the identity of someone
389
00:18:37,251 --> 00:18:40,336
who has committed in excess of 27,000 counts of theft
390
00:18:40,387 --> 00:18:43,839
of government property, disclosure of classified documents,
391
00:18:43,891 --> 00:18:46,593
and conspiracy to commit espionage.
392
00:18:46,595 --> 00:18:48,845
The suspect remains at large and presents
393
00:18:48,895 --> 00:18:51,480
a clear and present danger to national security.
394
00:18:51,516 --> 00:18:54,317
Why is he not protected by the First Amendment?
395
00:18:54,352 --> 00:18:56,769
Because the court in Branzburg denied the press
396
00:18:56,771 --> 00:18:58,654
First Amendment protection when they're subpoenaed
397
00:18:58,689 --> 00:19:01,107
to testify before a grand jury in a criminal case.
398
00:19:01,159 --> 00:19:02,858
Counsel?
399
00:19:02,910 --> 00:19:04,277
Sir, the court in Branzburg also said
400
00:19:04,327 --> 00:19:07,029
that a journalist need not comply with a grand jury subpoena
401
00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:09,115
where there's bad faith or harassment.
402
00:19:09,117 --> 00:19:12,035
The government has raided my client's newsroom,
403
00:19:12,086 --> 00:19:14,371
seized hard drives, and threatened him
404
00:19:14,422 --> 00:19:16,506
with criminal prosecution under the Espionage Act.
405
00:19:16,540 --> 00:19:19,125
In this case, a journalist participated in the crime.
406
00:19:19,176 --> 00:19:22,045
He didn't pull on a ski mask, Judge.
407
00:19:22,096 --> 00:19:24,763
- He may have unwittingly...
- He didn't do anything unwittingly.
408
00:19:24,798 --> 00:19:26,348
He is the senior editor of ACN Digital.
409
00:19:26,384 --> 00:19:28,184
You are speculating on whether a third party...
410
00:19:28,219 --> 00:19:29,553
All right, all right.
411
00:19:29,604 --> 00:19:31,971
Mr. McAvoy, is there anything you'd like to say?
412
00:19:31,973 --> 00:19:34,807
I haven't heard a request from the prosecutor, sir.
413
00:19:34,842 --> 00:19:37,943
Am I crazy, or have you argued in my court?
414
00:19:37,979 --> 00:19:41,064
You're not crazy, sir. Brooklyn Criminal Court, Part C.
415
00:19:41,115 --> 00:19:44,483
- How'd I do?
- You were very fair.
416
00:19:44,486 --> 00:19:47,019
Does Your Honor need to recuse himself?
417
00:19:47,054 --> 00:19:49,038
I want counsel to take care of this.
418
00:19:49,073 --> 00:19:52,541
I don't want to see the press on the
steps when I come in to work tomorrow.
419
00:19:52,576 --> 00:19:56,496
And I absolutely don't want to see
you in my courtroom on Thursday,
420
00:19:56,498 --> 00:19:59,215
which I strongly suspect is what's going to happen
421
00:19:59,250 --> 00:20:01,800
as Mr. McAvoy does not strike me
422
00:20:01,836 --> 00:20:04,171
as someone who is likely to cave,
423
00:20:04,173 --> 00:20:06,222
especially with everybody watching.
424
00:20:06,257 --> 00:20:08,508
It was foolish of you, Mr. Lasenthal.
425
00:20:08,509 --> 00:20:10,977
The DOJ should not have let it go this far.
426
00:20:11,011 --> 00:20:14,013
The Department of Justice, Your Honor,
is not playing a strategic game.
427
00:20:14,065 --> 00:20:17,317
We have to arrest his source and the
government of the United States
428
00:20:17,351 --> 00:20:20,269
will avail itself of every legal measure to do that.
429
00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:22,521
The government's request is granted.
430
00:20:22,573 --> 00:20:25,192
Mr. McAvoy, you're directed to appear
431
00:20:25,242 --> 00:20:28,161
before the grand jury at 10:00 AM tomorrow.
432
00:20:29,864 --> 00:20:32,199
- I have a logic problem.
- Maggie, what's going on over there?
433
00:20:32,201 --> 00:20:35,451
- His logic is inconsistent.
- How?
434
00:20:35,502 --> 00:20:37,871
He doesn't believe the source should
have leaked classified documents.
435
00:20:37,922 --> 00:20:40,923
- Neither do I.
- But he's unwilling to help law enforcement
436
00:20:40,958 --> 00:20:42,509
capture the source by identifying him.
437
00:20:42,542 --> 00:20:44,594
He can't. I'd be unwilling and so would you.
438
00:20:44,628 --> 00:20:46,429
I know, but following that logic,
439
00:20:46,463 --> 00:20:48,464
he should also not be willing to broadcast the story.
440
00:20:48,516 --> 00:20:50,933
If he believes no one should ever leak because it poses
441
00:20:50,968 --> 00:20:53,385
a critical threat, then why is he broadcasting the story?
442
00:20:53,387 --> 00:20:55,105
Well, I can't speak for Will, but I will.
443
00:20:55,138 --> 00:20:57,190
This leak, he believes, is a good leak.
444
00:20:57,224 --> 00:20:59,226
What he's very reasonably worried about is the bad leaks.
445
00:20:59,228 --> 00:21:00,442
So he'd prefer there are no leaks.
446
00:21:00,478 --> 00:21:02,061
You and Will are making the same unilateral decision
447
00:21:02,113 --> 00:21:03,395
you don't want a leaker to make.
448
00:21:03,397 --> 00:21:05,481
I trust strangers less than I trust me.
449
00:21:05,532 --> 00:21:06,950
Your logic is consistent, though horrifying.
450
00:21:06,983 --> 00:21:08,734
No one's gonna ever guess you guys are a couple.
451
00:21:08,786 --> 00:21:10,287
All right, listen. Listen up.
452
00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:11,871
He's refusing to leave without his kids
453
00:21:11,905 --> 00:21:14,074
- and his youngest kid doesn't have a passport.
- Jesus. All right.
454
00:21:14,125 --> 00:21:15,741
We got to get the kid a passport.
The State has to expedite that.
455
00:21:15,743 --> 00:21:17,576
The State Department can only issue US passports.
456
00:21:17,627 --> 00:21:19,328
- They've got to walk over to the embassy...
- And tell them what?
457
00:21:19,380 --> 00:21:21,798
- Where are we?
- Just...
458
00:21:21,832 --> 00:21:25,134
We need a favor. Whatever it is they do.
Can I talk to you a minute?
459
00:21:31,259 --> 00:21:33,893
The youngest of his three kids doesn't have a passport.
460
00:21:33,927 --> 00:21:35,595
State's got 30 hours to get him one.
461
00:21:35,645 --> 00:21:38,265
We are talking to mid-level people
and the US Department of State
462
00:21:38,316 --> 00:21:40,099
isn't hopping to it when we give them instructions.
463
00:21:40,151 --> 00:21:42,769
You have to tell me why we have to air the story
464
00:21:42,819 --> 00:21:45,488
tomorrow night and not a week from tomorrow night.
465
00:21:54,115 --> 00:21:56,915
All right, I'm gonna be out for about four hours.
466
00:21:56,951 --> 00:22:00,119
Once we run the story, we've shot the hostage.
Will has no more leverage.
467
00:22:00,122 --> 00:22:02,922
If we don't run the story, why don't we all just go home?
468
00:22:02,957 --> 00:22:06,125
Four hours. Don't ask me where I was when I come back.
469
00:22:08,628 --> 00:22:12,298
And what we say is important is important.
470
00:22:12,349 --> 00:22:15,101
The news reflects back to us our national character
471
00:22:15,135 --> 00:22:19,021
and I don't like seeing a bored and
boring teenager in the mirror.
472
00:22:19,056 --> 00:22:22,142
What we say is important is important.
473
00:22:22,144 --> 00:22:23,777
It's a solid business, Toni.
474
00:22:23,810 --> 00:22:26,813
Locked-in carriage contracts with
every MVPD and they're staggered.
475
00:22:26,815 --> 00:22:28,397
The carriage fees are due for a hike
476
00:22:28,449 --> 00:22:31,151
that could double revenues by itself over the next decade.
477
00:22:31,153 --> 00:22:35,070
Can you talk about valuation? Earnings before interest?
478
00:22:35,122 --> 00:22:36,823
You'll look at our books and see it's in the sweet spot
479
00:22:36,825 --> 00:22:38,325
and the deal would be accretive to your earnings.
480
00:22:38,375 --> 00:22:41,126
- It would pay for itself?
- And then some.
481
00:22:42,413 --> 00:22:44,663
Have you decided what you would like?
482
00:22:44,665 --> 00:22:47,217
A news network.
483
00:22:55,393 --> 00:22:58,310
You were on fire in there.
484
00:22:58,346 --> 00:23:02,048
I didn't understand half or really
any of what you were saying, but...
485
00:23:02,083 --> 00:23:04,567
You were able to follow when she said
she's meeting with her board on Thursday
486
00:23:04,602 --> 00:23:07,436
and she thinks we'll have an answer we'll like?
487
00:23:07,488 --> 00:23:10,656
Just tell me one thing. Is she eccentric?
488
00:23:10,691 --> 00:23:13,108
- How do you mean?
- She didn't eat her food.
489
00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:16,528
She pushed it around a little,
but she plainly doesn't like sushi.
490
00:23:16,530 --> 00:23:19,415
Why set a meeting at a restaurant
where they only serve sushi?
491
00:23:19,450 --> 00:23:21,367
Boss, you may be overthinking that.
492
00:23:21,369 --> 00:23:23,619
That's hardly ever the problem.
493
00:23:23,671 --> 00:23:25,788
We'll find out Thursday.
494
00:23:32,179 --> 00:23:33,430
It's ahead on the left.
495
00:23:33,463 --> 00:23:35,932
Just here.
496
00:23:48,479 --> 00:23:50,864
You can keep the meter running.
497
00:23:56,237 --> 00:23:59,239
- No umbrella?
- You either.
498
00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:01,074
Should we sit in your car?
499
00:24:01,076 --> 00:24:03,292
They may be tapping my car.
500
00:24:03,326 --> 00:24:05,994
I disabled the GPS, but they can still get in.
501
00:24:06,046 --> 00:24:08,998
- We need more time.
- I told you tomorrow night.
502
00:24:09,048 --> 00:24:11,384
- Lilly.
- Tomorrow night or I just have to upload the documents.
503
00:24:11,419 --> 00:24:13,336
- The writer of the story...
- We're the writer of the story.
504
00:24:13,386 --> 00:24:15,587
Joseph Bartho, who physically wrote the story,
505
00:24:15,638 --> 00:24:18,223
whose name is on it, and who is paid by the US government,
506
00:24:18,259 --> 00:24:22,345
is still on the ground because one of
his kids doesn't have a passport yet.
507
00:24:22,395 --> 00:24:25,932
If we run the story before Bartho and his family are out,
508
00:24:25,982 --> 00:24:29,102
the best-case scenario is he gets
a trial before he's executed.
509
00:24:29,153 --> 00:24:32,020
And if you dump the documents without them being vetted,
510
00:24:32,072 --> 00:24:34,740
there's a very good chance other people will be in danger.
511
00:24:34,775 --> 00:24:36,608
You really don't need to speak to me like I'm dim-witted.
512
00:24:36,611 --> 00:24:39,778
- Please lift the deadline.
- Give me a reason to trust you.
513
00:24:39,829 --> 00:24:42,531
You already did. You reached out to us.
514
00:24:42,583 --> 00:24:44,784
- Not the other way around.
- But you've been talking to the government.
515
00:24:44,835 --> 00:24:48,037
We got an invitation to talk to the government.
It's called a subpoena.
516
00:24:48,087 --> 00:24:50,757
They also made an unannounced drop-by called a raid.
517
00:24:50,790 --> 00:24:52,959
I'm not talking about that.
518
00:24:52,961 --> 00:24:55,211
You said that you've been working with
the government to vet the material.
519
00:24:55,261 --> 00:24:57,096
- Of course we are.
- You trust them?
520
00:24:57,131 --> 00:25:00,767
- In my way.
- You don't trust them any more than I do.
521
00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:03,269
Please lift the deadline.
522
00:25:04,355 --> 00:25:06,306
I reached out to Neal, not to you.
523
00:25:06,307 --> 00:25:09,726
Well, Neal's in Venezuela, Lilly.
524
00:25:09,777 --> 00:25:11,528
And you know what?
525
00:25:11,561 --> 00:25:13,395
Why aren't you?
526
00:25:13,446 --> 00:25:16,281
Why haven't you said,
"This has gone too far. Let's switch places.
527
00:25:16,317 --> 00:25:18,651
I'll go to a country with no extradition treaty.
528
00:25:18,701 --> 00:25:20,319
You're now free to disclose my name.
529
00:25:20,321 --> 00:25:22,989
Neal can come home and Will can stop spending his days
530
00:25:23,039 --> 00:25:25,491
in front of a grand jury." Why hasn't that happened?
531
00:25:25,542 --> 00:25:27,876
You really think the price for telling
the truth should be that high?
532
00:25:31,048 --> 00:25:32,915
No, I don't.
533
00:25:34,335 --> 00:25:37,753
I promise the story will be reported.
534
00:25:38,972 --> 00:25:40,306
Well, I can't promise anything.
535
00:25:40,340 --> 00:25:42,509
- Really?
- Look, McAvoy's a Republican.
536
00:25:42,559 --> 00:25:45,094
- I know he thinks I'm a criminal.
- He's a journalist.
537
00:25:45,144 --> 00:25:46,429
His politics don't have anything...
538
00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:48,314
"Worst-period-generation-period-ever-period."
539
00:25:48,348 --> 00:25:50,182
That was spoken in the middle of a very difficult...
540
00:25:50,233 --> 00:25:52,769
I reached out to Neal, so I can't promise anything.
541
00:25:55,940 --> 00:25:58,575
You know, it wouldn't matter if you did.
542
00:25:58,608 --> 00:26:00,576
I trust you less than I trust them.
543
00:26:00,611 --> 00:26:03,946
Dump the documents and I'll quit my job,
544
00:26:03,998 --> 00:26:07,584
walk to the FBI, and give them your name.
545
00:26:07,617 --> 00:26:09,836
- Trust that.
- Fuck you.
546
00:26:12,539 --> 00:26:15,040
We can go back to the airport now.
547
00:26:21,065 --> 00:26:23,849
Mr. McAvoy, I have here a court order directing you
548
00:26:23,884 --> 00:26:25,551
to tell us the name of the individual
549
00:26:25,603 --> 00:26:27,386
that is the target of this investigation.
550
00:26:27,438 --> 00:26:29,806
- Will you comply with the court order?
- No, sir.
551
00:26:29,856 --> 00:26:33,992
- You won't comply with the court order?
- No, sir.
552
00:26:38,398 --> 00:26:40,199
I saw a lot of spirit in that shot, a lot of guts.
553
00:26:40,233 --> 00:26:41,901
Shut it, Fast Eddie.
554
00:26:41,951 --> 00:26:44,871
Why are hot women in movies always great at pool?
555
00:26:44,904 --> 00:26:47,789
Is that what men like? A hot girl who plays nine-ball?
556
00:26:47,825 --> 00:26:49,375
You could have said anything after "hot girl"
557
00:26:49,410 --> 00:26:51,044
- and the answer would have been...
- All right.
558
00:26:54,999 --> 00:26:58,250
- Oh, brother.
- What happened?
559
00:26:58,252 --> 00:27:00,752
- Hallie posted a column. You ready?
- Mm-hmm.
560
00:27:00,804 --> 00:27:03,756
"Old Media Guy and New Media Girl:
561
00:27:03,758 --> 00:27:05,307
An Analog Romance."
562
00:27:05,342 --> 00:27:07,259
- What's it about?
- What do you think it's about?
563
00:27:07,261 --> 00:27:09,095
- Him?
- Yeah.
564
00:27:09,145 --> 00:27:12,432
It's pretty personal, but in her defense,
she doesn't use his name.
565
00:27:12,482 --> 00:27:14,400
- What does she call him?
- Jim?
566
00:27:14,434 --> 00:27:16,853
- Yeah.
- Tim.
567
00:27:17,938 --> 00:27:19,771
Hallie is an excellent reporter.
568
00:27:19,773 --> 00:27:22,075
And she's reporting on a fight
she's having with her boyfriend.
569
00:27:22,108 --> 00:27:24,242
- She's working a tough beat.
- It's a lot more than that.
570
00:27:24,278 --> 00:27:25,612
Okay, read it.
571
00:27:25,614 --> 00:27:27,997
"My boyfriend loves me, but he doesn't like me.
572
00:27:28,031 --> 00:27:31,500
He definitely doesn't follow me. He disapproves of me."
573
00:27:31,535 --> 00:27:34,671
Maybe he just disapproves of using the
word "me" four times in the lead.
574
00:27:34,704 --> 00:27:36,788
How would you have written it instead?
575
00:27:36,790 --> 00:27:39,791
I'm not a professional writer,
but I'd have maybe tweaked the opening so it read,
576
00:27:39,843 --> 00:27:41,594
"I am not making my private life
577
00:27:41,628 --> 00:27:43,630
and the private lives of others available for entertainment
578
00:27:43,681 --> 00:27:46,265
so I can get comments like, 'You stay strong, Hallie.
579
00:27:46,299 --> 00:27:48,800
He doesn't deserve you.'" Seven in the corner.
580
00:27:48,802 --> 00:27:51,938
I have been a witness to Jim being a condescending...
581
00:27:53,106 --> 00:27:54,440
Look, there's nothing wrong with this.
582
00:27:54,474 --> 00:27:57,059
It's relatable and interesting and she can write like crazy.
583
00:27:57,111 --> 00:27:59,811
Did she ask Jim's permission before
deputizing him into her well-written...
584
00:27:59,863 --> 00:28:02,115
Why are you so quick to defend Jim?
585
00:28:02,148 --> 00:28:03,900
Why are you so quick to defend Hallie?
586
00:28:03,951 --> 00:28:06,035
Because she's going to be attacked by Jim.
587
00:28:06,069 --> 00:28:08,704
Probably not in print, but I don't think that's the reason.
588
00:28:08,739 --> 00:28:11,907
I'm always grateful when a man can tell
me why I'm thinking what I'm thinking.
589
00:28:11,959 --> 00:28:14,376
You're into Jim and you don't want to be a jealous cliché,
590
00:28:14,411 --> 00:28:16,663
so you defend Hallie for show.
591
00:28:16,664 --> 00:28:18,748
And it's a classy thing to do,
592
00:28:18,798 --> 00:28:21,718
but at some point we're going to have
to discuss how that makes me feel
593
00:28:21,751 --> 00:28:24,220
to know that any man in your life
is going to be the runner-up.
594
00:28:26,256 --> 00:28:27,723
You really believe that?
595
00:28:59,205 --> 00:29:01,173
Still got my security key.
596
00:29:09,932 --> 00:29:11,884
This place has gone to hell without me.
597
00:29:11,885 --> 00:29:14,053
Mm-hmm.
598
00:29:21,694 --> 00:29:23,229
It's almost 1:00 in the morning, Jim.
599
00:29:23,279 --> 00:29:27,200
Are you not coming home or answering my calls or texts?
600
00:29:31,121 --> 00:29:34,156
I told you my editor wanted me to write more personally.
601
00:29:37,412 --> 00:29:39,578
There are classified documents in this room.
602
00:29:39,630 --> 00:29:41,631
You can't be in here.
603
00:29:59,266 --> 00:30:02,018
It was an invasion of privacy. I'm really sorry for that.
604
00:30:02,068 --> 00:30:03,935
I was mad. We had just had the last fight
605
00:30:03,938 --> 00:30:06,521
and I went into the other room and wrote it.
606
00:30:06,573 --> 00:30:08,574
You know my computer doesn't trust me.
607
00:30:08,608 --> 00:30:10,859
It always asks are you sure you want to do this?
608
00:30:10,911 --> 00:30:12,444
But it never asks before I hit...
609
00:30:12,446 --> 00:30:15,615
I don't care about the invasion of privacy. I wish I did.
610
00:30:17,250 --> 00:30:19,251
I've been here for hours
611
00:30:19,286 --> 00:30:22,505
trying to make myself mad because
it was an invasion of privacy.
612
00:30:22,588 --> 00:30:24,624
And the crowd would be on my side. That's a no-brainer.
613
00:30:24,625 --> 00:30:28,126
- You don't like me very much.
- And I wish I didn't like you so much.
614
00:30:29,962 --> 00:30:31,881
Took five fucking days, Hallie,
615
00:30:31,932 --> 00:30:33,633
for you to give yourself your own reality show.
616
00:30:33,634 --> 00:30:36,602
I understand your wanting to insult me right now,
617
00:30:36,636 --> 00:30:38,304
but that's not what I did.
618
00:30:38,306 --> 00:30:41,057
Writing about the media, writing about the New York elite,
619
00:30:41,107 --> 00:30:43,692
telling personal stories that resonate with readers
620
00:30:43,727 --> 00:30:46,479
doesn't take one cent away from covering Syria
621
00:30:46,529 --> 00:30:48,564
and Afghanistan and Washington.
622
00:30:48,615 --> 00:30:50,066
There are foreign correspondents,
623
00:30:50,116 --> 00:30:51,733
sports correspondents, fashion correspondents.
624
00:30:51,785 --> 00:30:53,486
And an unbearable correspondent.
625
00:30:53,488 --> 00:30:56,404
Jealous of the New York elites? I've got you covered.
626
00:30:56,455 --> 00:30:59,040
A movie star was at an environmental fundraiser
627
00:30:59,076 --> 00:31:00,625
and they rode on a private jet?
628
00:31:00,661 --> 00:31:02,377
Here's your phony outrage.
629
00:31:02,461 --> 00:31:04,963
Feeling a little like you didn't make the cut?
630
00:31:04,998 --> 00:31:07,500
I hereby declare that amateurs are awesome
631
00:31:07,550 --> 00:31:10,385
and professionals are so 20 years ago.
632
00:31:10,420 --> 00:31:13,055
Only instead of professionals, I'm gonna say old media,
633
00:31:13,089 --> 00:31:14,640
and instead of Jim, I'm gonna say Tim
634
00:31:14,674 --> 00:31:17,143
because I'm Hallie Shea, Senior Fuck You Correspondent
635
00:31:17,176 --> 00:31:19,929
- and I've decided to become a star.
- Are you drunk?
636
00:31:19,980 --> 00:31:23,015
Did you out yourself about the Boston tweet
to make sure no one suspected anyone else
637
00:31:23,017 --> 00:31:25,067
or did you do it to let our enemies know you were available?
638
00:31:25,102 --> 00:31:26,935
Do you hear the way you're talking right now?
639
00:31:26,987 --> 00:31:29,154
- Our enemies?
- Did you?
640
00:31:29,189 --> 00:31:31,440
I'm gonna stay at my place tonight.
641
00:31:32,659 --> 00:31:34,192
Do you mind if I tell you something?
642
00:31:34,243 --> 00:31:36,278
Your problem isn't with me and it isn't with the site.
643
00:31:36,329 --> 00:31:39,198
It's with the audience.
You don't like that they like what they like
644
00:31:39,249 --> 00:31:41,250
because you need them to like you and that's no different...
645
00:31:41,285 --> 00:31:43,419
I don't give a shit about me or liking me
646
00:31:43,452 --> 00:31:47,373
or following me or friending me or trending.
647
00:31:47,375 --> 00:31:48,790
It's just ugly.
648
00:31:48,842 --> 00:31:50,542
I think you're threatened by technology.
649
00:31:50,545 --> 00:31:52,211
I beam a signal into outer space every night.
650
00:31:52,261 --> 00:31:54,713
I'm not scared of your Samsung Galaxy. What else you got?
651
00:31:54,765 --> 00:31:57,266
I want to be part of the digital revolution.
I want to be part of...
652
00:31:57,300 --> 00:32:00,769
Oh, my God! I am not talking about the apparatus.
653
00:32:04,223 --> 00:32:05,691
Just tell me you know I'm right.
654
00:32:05,726 --> 00:32:07,442
Please. Please.
655
00:32:07,477 --> 00:32:09,362
At least tell me that.
656
00:32:09,395 --> 00:32:12,615
Tell me when you knock away the
digital revolution bullshit...
657
00:32:12,648 --> 00:32:15,401
"We're not beholden to corporate masters."
658
00:32:15,451 --> 00:32:17,286
Yeah, or any standard of good taste.
659
00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:19,622
Tell me, please, that you know all you did
660
00:32:19,655 --> 00:32:22,625
was have a fight with your boyfriend
and litigate it in public.
661
00:32:22,659 --> 00:32:24,743
Because I have spent time with hardcore drug movers
662
00:32:24,795 --> 00:32:27,078
and they don't pretend they're selling medicine.
663
00:32:38,392 --> 00:32:40,343
Yeah, I'm drunk.
664
00:33:21,768 --> 00:33:25,020
- I'm gonna miss you.
- You're gonna miss a lot of things, Jim.
665
00:33:42,823 --> 00:33:46,491
- Yeah?
- If he sentences you, where do you go?
666
00:33:46,542 --> 00:33:48,827
Nowhere. He's not gonna find me in contempt.
667
00:33:48,829 --> 00:33:51,047
- But if he does?
- Manhattan Correctional Center.
668
00:33:51,080 --> 00:33:54,416
- That's a real jail.
- And you've been shot at and you've been stabbed.
669
00:33:54,468 --> 00:33:57,635
It's 1:30.
670
00:33:57,671 --> 00:33:59,471
I think that's your phone.
671
00:34:08,347 --> 00:34:10,849
We need a table or a dresser
672
00:34:10,851 --> 00:34:12,735
where I can put my phone.
673
00:34:12,768 --> 00:34:15,021
Also walls and electricity.
674
00:34:15,072 --> 00:34:16,938
Hello.
675
00:34:16,989 --> 00:34:18,907
Is it Rebecca? Is it Charlie?
676
00:34:18,942 --> 00:34:21,077
It wouldn't be Charlie. It'd be Rebecca. Is it work?
677
00:34:21,110 --> 00:34:23,161
It would've been my phone if it was work. Is it Rebecca?
678
00:34:23,195 --> 00:34:25,498
Hang on.
679
00:34:27,833 --> 00:34:29,869
Yeah?
680
00:34:31,003 --> 00:34:32,588
Okay.
681
00:34:32,621 --> 00:34:35,541
No court tomorrow. The hearing's been moved to Friday.
682
00:34:35,592 --> 00:34:38,376
Cedarman wants Lasenthal and Rebecca to work on a deal.
683
00:34:38,378 --> 00:34:41,380
Does he know there won't be a deal
that involves not airing the story?
684
00:34:41,431 --> 00:34:44,884
What he knows is he doesn't want to be
the judge who locked up a news anchor.
685
00:34:47,471 --> 00:34:49,637
I find your Irish stoicism...
686
00:34:49,688 --> 00:34:51,840
- Sexy?
- Irritating.
687
00:34:55,811 --> 00:34:57,228
Thank you.
688
00:34:57,231 --> 00:34:59,697
He's out.
689
00:35:01,784 --> 00:35:04,070
Everybody. The whole family. Everybody's out.
690
00:35:04,121 --> 00:35:06,237
Here we go, tonight.
691
00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:08,706
Show me a rough sketch to time by 3:00.
692
00:35:08,742 --> 00:35:10,742
Good job, everybody. Thank you.
693
00:35:10,827 --> 00:35:13,329
We're not done yet. Good job, Don.
694
00:35:13,380 --> 00:35:15,831
Jim, you look sleepier than usual.
695
00:35:15,882 --> 00:35:18,583
Tess, Gary, Kendra, Martin, Sloan, you did nothing.
696
00:35:18,635 --> 00:35:20,251
- Maggie...
- Mac.
697
00:35:20,302 --> 00:35:21,887
Jenna, your future is limitless.
698
00:35:21,922 --> 00:35:23,222
Reese wants to see you in his office.
699
00:35:23,255 --> 00:35:25,507
Now?
700
00:35:37,186 --> 00:35:38,987
Reese?
701
00:35:39,021 --> 00:35:41,489
Come on in. Close the door, please.
702
00:35:41,525 --> 00:35:45,945
Joseph Bartho and the Joseph Bartho Family Singers are out.
703
00:35:45,996 --> 00:35:47,413
We just got the word. They're heading to France
704
00:35:47,447 --> 00:35:50,365
via 14 connecting flights and a team of oxen.
705
00:35:50,416 --> 00:35:51,916
So we're running the story tonight.
706
00:35:51,952 --> 00:35:55,121
You can't. I'm sorry, you can't run it at all.
707
00:35:59,543 --> 00:36:01,293
Why?
708
00:36:01,295 --> 00:36:03,094
Pruit. He signs a deal at the end of the day
709
00:36:03,130 --> 00:36:05,047
and he won't if we run the story.
710
00:36:09,518 --> 00:36:11,269
Because of Will?
711
00:36:11,304 --> 00:36:13,639
Says he doesn't think there's a
chance Cedarman's gonna send him.
712
00:36:13,690 --> 00:36:16,358
It's not because of Will.
He likes that Will's going to jail.
713
00:36:16,393 --> 00:36:18,393
He wants him to broadcast from there.
714
00:36:18,445 --> 00:36:20,478
- I'm certain they won't allow that.
- I'm certain they won't, too.
715
00:36:20,530 --> 00:36:22,398
- What's the problem, Reese?
- The fines.
716
00:36:22,449 --> 00:36:24,032
His lawyers had to be told about the story
717
00:36:24,067 --> 00:36:26,568
and they've advised him that if
the story was gathered illegally,
718
00:36:26,619 --> 00:36:30,655
the Justice Department can and probably
will impose crippling criminal fines.
719
00:36:37,963 --> 00:36:40,166
- This is horseshit.
- I know.
720
00:36:40,217 --> 00:36:43,885
The source risked everything.
721
00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:46,804
Neal's hiding in South America.
722
00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:48,389
Will is facing a grand jury.
723
00:36:48,425 --> 00:36:49,974
Bartho and his family fled the country.
724
00:36:50,010 --> 00:36:51,510
- And it was for nothing?
- Mac.
725
00:36:51,561 --> 00:36:55,097
- It was for nothing?
- Yeah.
726
00:36:56,213 --> 00:36:59,518
Selling the company is the only way
you get to live to fight another day.
727
00:36:59,519 --> 00:37:02,021
Do we ever get to win one?
728
00:37:05,742 --> 00:37:07,358
I've got to go and tell the staff.
729
00:37:07,409 --> 00:37:11,664
Hey, Mac. You know,
the fight with the grand jury isn't over.
730
00:37:11,697 --> 00:37:13,831
- They still want his source.
- I know.
731
00:37:13,867 --> 00:37:16,835
Since the day you got here,
Will's been having a battle with himself.
732
00:37:16,869 --> 00:37:19,204
Is he a real journalist or just good on TV?
733
00:37:19,255 --> 00:37:21,923
You ever think he might be doing this for you?
734
00:37:21,958 --> 00:37:25,376
Because I don't think there's not a
chance he's gonna be sent to jail.
735
00:37:25,378 --> 00:37:27,128
I've got his ring on my finger.
736
00:37:27,179 --> 00:37:29,764
He's not doing this to win my approval.
737
00:37:29,798 --> 00:37:33,052
Then it would be the first thing
I've seen him do that wasn't.
738
00:37:39,476 --> 00:37:41,226
I'm going to tell the staff.
739
00:37:41,228 --> 00:37:43,646
- I'm sorry.
- Thank you.
740
00:38:19,682 --> 00:38:23,402
Can I make a suggestion which,
if you think about it, makes a lot of sense?
741
00:38:24,603 --> 00:38:26,021
Don't say anything.
742
00:38:26,072 --> 00:38:27,856
Have Rebecca go to Lasenthal and say we're willing
743
00:38:27,907 --> 00:38:30,025
to kill the story in exchange for everybody's off the hook.
744
00:38:30,076 --> 00:38:33,411
Do you think there's a chance Will
would let Rebecca utter those words?
745
00:38:33,445 --> 00:38:37,865
No.
746
00:38:39,452 --> 00:38:41,704
Let's pack the documents up in cartons
747
00:38:41,755 --> 00:38:43,204
and label everything.
748
00:38:43,255 --> 00:38:46,041
Yep.
749
00:38:47,626 --> 00:38:49,795
Who's the most responsible reporter you can name?
750
00:38:49,797 --> 00:38:51,679
- You.
- Thank you.
751
00:38:51,715 --> 00:38:53,965
Who doesn't work here.
752
00:38:53,967 --> 00:38:56,467
Maybe someone who could use a break.
753
00:38:57,469 --> 00:38:59,137
Responsible how?
754
00:39:05,061 --> 00:39:07,146
There is an old teacher of mine from Columbia.
755
00:39:07,148 --> 00:39:10,032
She mostly gets garbage assignments
now 'cause she's in her 70s.
756
00:39:10,065 --> 00:39:12,201
Write her name down.
757
00:39:20,327 --> 00:39:22,960
I just heard. Sorry, Bubba.
758
00:39:24,146 --> 00:39:25,998
Good afternoon.
759
00:39:29,835 --> 00:39:32,637
I'll tell you, Mr. Geary, this isn't the best time.
760
00:39:32,672 --> 00:39:34,505
You two are a couple.
761
00:39:34,507 --> 00:39:36,141
We're not, but maybe we can do this later.
762
00:39:36,175 --> 00:39:39,094
No, you are. I have a signed letter declaring that you are.
763
00:39:39,144 --> 00:39:42,231
It was sitting in my office in a pile
of things I hadn't gotten to yet.
764
00:39:42,264 --> 00:39:44,516
- Somebody ratted us out?
- Yes.
765
00:39:44,518 --> 00:39:46,568
Nobody around here would drop a dime. You're blowing smoke.
766
00:39:46,603 --> 00:39:47,568
- Who cheesed?
- Okay, Mugsy.
767
00:39:47,603 --> 00:39:49,103
- You did.
- Huh?
768
00:39:49,155 --> 00:39:51,856
- You did.
- Which one of us are you talking to?
769
00:39:51,858 --> 00:39:53,826
- I think you know.
- What's he talking about?
770
00:39:53,860 --> 00:39:56,695
Sloan wrote a letter to HR
declaring the two of you a couple.
771
00:39:56,697 --> 00:40:00,199
Yeah, it was after you made $125 on the
Chipotle trade I tipped you off to.
772
00:40:00,201 --> 00:40:02,867
We spent the last two weeks trying to
conceal from this man that we're dating
773
00:40:02,869 --> 00:40:05,253
and the whole time you knew you'd sent
him a letter saying we were dating?
774
00:40:05,288 --> 00:40:06,588
- Mm-hmm.
- Why?
775
00:40:06,623 --> 00:40:08,289
Well, obviously I was hoping he'd never find out.
776
00:40:08,340 --> 00:40:09,958
But you knew he was gonna read the letter eventually.
777
00:40:10,009 --> 00:40:12,378
Eventually is a wonderful time of day.
778
00:40:12,461 --> 00:40:14,679
This was a cross that bridge when
we get to it situation for me.
779
00:40:14,713 --> 00:40:16,632
And here we are. We're at the bridge.
780
00:40:16,682 --> 00:40:19,184
- Wyatt...
- Is lying to corporate something you do habitually?
781
00:40:19,219 --> 00:40:22,137
Don and I like to make decisions
about lying on a case-by-case basis.
782
00:40:22,188 --> 00:40:23,639
Maybe you've helped enough.
783
00:40:23,672 --> 00:40:26,391
Please, don't transfer one of us.
784
00:40:26,393 --> 00:40:29,027
We don't work together enough, but the little we do works.
785
00:40:29,061 --> 00:40:31,362
And if you ask Sloan to choose between me and her job,
786
00:40:31,398 --> 00:40:34,065
you wouldn't be able to get that
sentence out before she said her job,
787
00:40:34,068 --> 00:40:36,568
and I really like her and I'm trying to be good enough.
788
00:40:36,619 --> 00:40:38,369
And this here is the best thing that I do.
789
00:40:38,405 --> 00:40:40,739
And can I say one more thing? It's just occurred to me
790
00:40:40,789 --> 00:40:43,876
that your company is only going to own
my network until the end of the day,
791
00:40:43,909 --> 00:40:46,077
so what the hell has this all been about?
792
00:40:46,079 --> 00:40:49,130
- Come to think of it...
- I'm blown away you let me do it this long.
793
00:40:49,164 --> 00:40:50,916
Why did you do it this long?
794
00:40:50,967 --> 00:40:52,717
Fun.
795
00:40:52,751 --> 00:40:54,670
I work in HR.
796
00:40:54,721 --> 00:40:57,840
Our days aren't scored by the "Hallelujah Chorus."
797
00:40:59,476 --> 00:41:03,010
I don't know anything about the
story you were all working on,
798
00:41:03,061 --> 00:41:05,597
but I know enough to say sorry.
799
00:41:07,099 --> 00:41:09,016
Good luck to the two of you.
800
00:41:09,068 --> 00:41:11,853
I'm a big fan.
801
00:41:11,905 --> 00:41:14,322
Put those Instagram photos back.
802
00:41:14,356 --> 00:41:17,108
- Yes, sir.
- Why haven't we heard anything yet?
803
00:41:17,110 --> 00:41:19,411
- The board's still meeting.
- Pruit just walked into the building.
804
00:41:19,445 --> 00:41:21,362
- He's an hour early.
- Yeah.
805
00:41:21,414 --> 00:41:23,181
What are you guys talking about?
806
00:41:23,215 --> 00:41:26,034
The Bloomberg terminal will tell
us everything we need to know.
807
00:41:28,338 --> 00:41:32,090
Bloomberg terminal, tell us what's going
on with Toni Dodd's board meeting.
808
00:41:32,125 --> 00:41:33,342
It's not a Ouija board.
809
00:41:33,376 --> 00:41:35,927
I wasn't... I was just, you know, praying.
810
00:41:35,961 --> 00:41:37,378
- What are you two...
- Hang on.
811
00:41:37,429 --> 00:41:39,797
Their press rep just tweeted,
812
00:41:39,849 --> 00:41:42,434
"Exciting announcement about major media acquisition
813
00:41:42,469 --> 00:41:44,436
coming at 5:00 PM."
814
00:41:44,471 --> 00:41:46,855
Go. Tell Reese.
815
00:41:46,889 --> 00:41:48,306
So what's going on?
816
00:41:48,309 --> 00:41:51,193
We found a white knight. Antoinette Dodd's gonna buy ACN.
817
00:41:51,226 --> 00:41:52,610
- Are you kidding?
- Hang on.
818
00:41:52,644 --> 00:41:54,313
- No, seriously.
- Hang on.
819
00:41:54,364 --> 00:41:56,898
- How did you do that?
- Shit.
820
00:41:56,949 --> 00:41:58,784
- What?
- This can't be happening.
821
00:41:58,818 --> 00:42:00,034
I don't know what you're looking at.
822
00:42:00,068 --> 00:42:01,869
Options on Halifax just started trading up.
823
00:42:01,905 --> 00:42:05,490
- The Halifax Group.
- Halifax Group options...
824
00:42:05,492 --> 00:42:07,242
Fuck!
825
00:42:07,293 --> 00:42:09,043
She's buying Halifax.
826
00:42:09,077 --> 00:42:10,829
She met... I don't believe this.
827
00:42:10,880 --> 00:42:12,380
She met with us. She wanted them to think...
828
00:42:12,414 --> 00:42:14,465
We were leverage.
829
00:42:16,168 --> 00:42:18,219
God damn it!
830
00:42:19,472 --> 00:42:21,889
There's no need for airports.
831
00:42:21,925 --> 00:42:23,809
Just runways and a fence.
832
00:42:23,842 --> 00:42:25,811
That's a hell of a plan, Lucas.
833
00:42:25,844 --> 00:42:29,181
Dude, I told you in college that one day I
was gonna buy a company out from under you.
834
00:42:29,231 --> 00:42:30,815
I gave you, like, 15 years' warning.
835
00:42:30,849 --> 00:42:34,101
I remember you telling me you
were sleeping with my girlfriend,
836
00:42:34,152 --> 00:42:35,686
but not the second thing.
837
00:42:35,688 --> 00:42:37,438
You were probably in shock from the first thing.
838
00:42:37,489 --> 00:42:41,527
Call it off! You don't have to
sell us to this pretentious ponce.
839
00:42:41,528 --> 00:42:44,195
Toni Dodd just got out of her board meeting
840
00:42:44,197 --> 00:42:46,364
and she's gonna make a competitive offer.
841
00:42:46,416 --> 00:42:50,202
So fuck you and fuck you again, you fiber-optic yak.
842
00:42:50,204 --> 00:42:53,505
Charlie. Charlie.
843
00:42:55,541 --> 00:42:58,427
What Sloan's telling Charlie is
that people are buying Halifax
844
00:42:58,460 --> 00:43:00,878
at the current stock price with
an expiration on the assumption
845
00:43:00,929 --> 00:43:02,880
that Toni's about to announce she's buying it.
846
00:43:02,882 --> 00:43:04,632
It was leverage, Charlie.
847
00:43:04,684 --> 00:43:06,768
She wanted people to think she was looking at ACN.
848
00:43:06,802 --> 00:43:08,603
That's why she had you guys eat at that sushi place.
849
00:43:08,637 --> 00:43:10,304
She knew there was a Halifax board member there.
850
00:43:10,356 --> 00:43:12,391
- You're gonna love me, Charlie.
- No, I'm not.
851
00:43:12,393 --> 00:43:13,891
Yeah, you are.
852
00:43:13,893 --> 00:43:16,228
I'm gonna take you into the 21st century
853
00:43:16,278 --> 00:43:19,114
right after I drag you through the 19th and 20th.
854
00:43:19,148 --> 00:43:21,699
- You couldn't have gotten here 10 seconds sooner?
- I just saw it.
855
00:43:21,733 --> 00:43:24,369
- What's the point of having a Bloomberg terminal...
- It's not the terminal's fault.
856
00:43:24,403 --> 00:43:25,487
You want a ceremonial pen?
857
00:43:25,538 --> 00:43:27,623
It can write in a zero gravity environment.
858
00:43:27,657 --> 00:43:29,992
Yeah, I plan to take a trip through the ionosphere.
859
00:43:30,043 --> 00:43:33,077
Keep that sense of humor. You're very entertaining.
860
00:43:33,079 --> 00:43:35,414
- No, whoa. Come on.
- Whoa. Whoa.
861
00:43:35,465 --> 00:43:37,331
We're sworn enemies now, he and I.
862
00:43:37,382 --> 00:43:38,884
He can still hear you.
863
00:43:40,753 --> 00:43:43,722
- Did you see Charlie?
- After the show.
864
00:43:43,755 --> 00:43:45,757
He was cleaning his 12-gauge with Maker's Mark
865
00:43:45,759 --> 00:43:47,675
and muttering, "Kill the wabbit."
866
00:43:51,931 --> 00:43:54,766
It's not Irish stoicism, is it?
867
00:43:56,603 --> 00:44:00,438
This is some kind of internal baptism for you,
868
00:44:00,489 --> 00:44:04,275
which would be heartbreaking enough,
except I think maybe it's a little for me.
869
00:44:04,277 --> 00:44:07,445
Don't you know that anything that can be proven
870
00:44:07,496 --> 00:44:10,748
by courage and character, you proved to me a long time ago?
871
00:44:10,782 --> 00:44:12,451
You want me to give up the source?
872
00:44:12,501 --> 00:44:14,119
I just want you to say you're scared.
873
00:44:14,170 --> 00:44:15,920
All right, here's the thing, MacKenzie.
874
00:44:15,954 --> 00:44:18,590
'Cause I love you,
but you've had me on your couch for three years
875
00:44:18,625 --> 00:44:20,791
and this one time we're switching places.
876
00:44:20,793 --> 00:44:22,710
You're tearing yourself up
877
00:44:22,762 --> 00:44:25,012
because you either prioritize the story over me,
878
00:44:25,047 --> 00:44:26,632
which you think makes you a bad person,
879
00:44:26,682 --> 00:44:28,266
or you prioritize me over the story,
880
00:44:28,300 --> 00:44:29,800
which you think makes you a bad reporter.
881
00:44:29,802 --> 00:44:32,637
Either way, you're wrong. The source came to Neal
882
00:44:32,688 --> 00:44:34,940
and then I asked Neal for his name and then...
883
00:44:34,974 --> 00:44:37,391
- You can stop saying "his."
- What do you mean?
884
00:44:37,443 --> 00:44:40,362
His name. The source is a woman.
885
00:44:40,396 --> 00:44:42,563
I've spoken to her in person twice.
886
00:44:42,614 --> 00:44:44,032
I know just as much about her as you do.
887
00:44:44,067 --> 00:44:46,702
Why are you standing in front of a judge and not me?
888
00:44:46,735 --> 00:44:48,619
Oh, God.
889
00:44:49,956 --> 00:44:52,239
You can't ever repeat what you just said.
890
00:44:57,413 --> 00:44:59,331
Mr. McAvoy refused to comply
891
00:44:59,333 --> 00:45:00,998
with an order of this court.
892
00:45:01,001 --> 00:45:04,335
Title 28, Section 1826
893
00:45:04,387 --> 00:45:06,588
of the United States Code directs this court
894
00:45:06,639 --> 00:45:09,007
to hold a grand jury witness in contempt
895
00:45:09,009 --> 00:45:13,144
if he refuses the order and does so without just cause.
896
00:45:13,179 --> 00:45:14,846
We're here today to determine
897
00:45:14,896 --> 00:45:17,349
if the witness can show just cause.
898
00:45:17,351 --> 00:45:20,068
Miss Halliday, I'll hear argument for the witness.
899
00:45:20,103 --> 00:45:22,603
Thank you, Your Honor. And may it please the court.
900
00:45:22,655 --> 00:45:26,240
Mr. McAvoy's cause exists because he is protected
901
00:45:26,275 --> 00:45:28,492
by a reporter's privilege to withhold information,
902
00:45:28,527 --> 00:45:32,197
a privilege that's been recognized
by a wide range of courts.
903
00:45:45,210 --> 00:45:47,545
If we were to apply that test here,
904
00:45:47,547 --> 00:45:50,465
we would find that the information
given by the reporter's source
905
00:45:50,516 --> 00:45:52,184
poses no harm to the public
906
00:45:52,217 --> 00:45:53,552
and we would weigh that
907
00:45:53,603 --> 00:45:55,771
against the newsworthiness of the US government
908
00:45:55,804 --> 00:45:59,190
swift-boating a foreign election with disinformation
909
00:45:59,224 --> 00:46:02,393
that got 38 people, including three Americans, killed.
910
00:46:04,230 --> 00:46:08,065
No one disputes that this is a tragic
story of unintended consequences.
911
00:46:08,117 --> 00:46:10,034
No one intended for anyone to die
912
00:46:10,068 --> 00:46:12,070
and no one did anything illegal.
913
00:46:12,105 --> 00:46:15,123
Our intelligence professionals engage in covert operations
914
00:46:15,157 --> 00:46:18,076
all over the world to keep us safe. It's their job.
915
00:46:18,126 --> 00:46:21,079
It's how we won World War II. It's how we won the Cold War.
916
00:46:21,081 --> 00:46:22,748
It's how the Berlin Wall fell
917
00:46:22,798 --> 00:46:26,083
and it's why more buildings didn't fall on September 12.
918
00:46:26,085 --> 00:46:28,887
But not only can't they do their jobs if their identities
919
00:46:28,920 --> 00:46:31,139
are revealed by a rogue government worker,
920
00:46:31,173 --> 00:46:33,724
their lives and the lives of their families
921
00:46:33,760 --> 00:46:35,559
will be put at great risk immediately
922
00:46:35,594 --> 00:46:37,262
and perhaps without even their knowledge.
923
00:46:37,264 --> 00:46:40,398
Judge, when they do their jobs recklessly,
the public has a right to know.
924
00:46:40,432 --> 00:46:43,150
And how does someone who isn't an experienced professional
925
00:46:43,186 --> 00:46:45,771
in the clandestine services presume to know
926
00:46:45,822 --> 00:46:47,521
when one of our agents is doing their job well?
927
00:46:47,572 --> 00:46:51,443
In this case, we can put a stethoscope on the 38 bodies.
928
00:46:51,445 --> 00:46:54,862
The court is sufficiently convinced
of the news value of this story.
929
00:46:54,947 --> 00:46:57,865
Mr. Lasenthal, please speak to any harm it poses.
930
00:46:57,949 --> 00:47:00,668
Judge, someone with a high level of security clearance
931
00:47:00,702 --> 00:47:02,586
has committed an act of espionage.
932
00:47:02,621 --> 00:47:04,172
That fact is not in dispute.
933
00:47:04,206 --> 00:47:06,123
This person is still inside the government,
934
00:47:06,175 --> 00:47:08,876
still has access to classified materials.
935
00:47:08,927 --> 00:47:10,762
This person must be apprehended.
936
00:47:10,797 --> 00:47:14,099
Law enforcement doesn't know the identity. Mr. McAvoy does.
937
00:47:14,132 --> 00:47:17,601
And I can't imagine what other
argument the court needs to hear.
938
00:47:20,021 --> 00:47:22,523
Mr. McAvoy.
939
00:47:22,557 --> 00:47:24,476
What do you want me to do?
940
00:47:27,063 --> 00:47:29,231
Your Honor, if you're leaving it up to me,
941
00:47:29,282 --> 00:47:31,032
I'd just as soon go home.
942
00:47:33,034 --> 00:47:36,538
It's funny, but the first time the
Supreme Court ever supported a claim
943
00:47:36,572 --> 00:47:40,407
of protection under the First Amendment wasn't until 1919.
944
00:47:40,458 --> 00:47:42,661
The amendment says Congress shall make no law
945
00:47:42,711 --> 00:47:45,297
abridging freedom of speech or of the press.
946
00:47:45,331 --> 00:47:47,382
And we went 125 years
947
00:47:47,416 --> 00:47:50,467
without that law protecting critical expression.
948
00:47:50,503 --> 00:47:53,672
The legislation that sparked the dissent?
949
00:47:53,673 --> 00:47:55,422
The Espionage Act.
950
00:47:57,260 --> 00:47:59,894
I just thought that was interesting.
951
00:48:02,181 --> 00:48:04,983
I appreciate the defense my attorney mounted,
952
00:48:05,016 --> 00:48:07,268
but my heart is with the prosecutor.
953
00:48:07,320 --> 00:48:08,903
I'm sorry, Rebecca, it just is.
954
00:48:08,938 --> 00:48:10,771
It didn't used to be that so much damage
955
00:48:10,822 --> 00:48:12,606
could be done by so few people.
956
00:48:12,657 --> 00:48:15,393
It just used to be harder. It took more manpower.
957
00:48:15,427 --> 00:48:18,496
So, for me, I don't like the cost benefit.
958
00:48:18,530 --> 00:48:22,250
But I can't give you the name of my source.
959
00:48:22,284 --> 00:48:24,536
I'm just not allowed to, Your Honor.
960
00:48:24,538 --> 00:48:27,204
It's as simple as that. I'm not allowed to.
961
00:48:28,173 --> 00:48:29,423
And as Your Honor well knows,
962
00:48:29,458 --> 00:48:31,842
prison time in a civil contempt case
963
00:48:31,878 --> 00:48:33,594
can't be punitive, only coercive.
964
00:48:33,628 --> 00:48:37,215
So with that in mind,
I'm telling the government and the court
965
00:48:37,266 --> 00:48:39,550
that there are no number of prison days
966
00:48:39,601 --> 00:48:43,771
after which I will reveal my source's identity.
967
00:48:48,059 --> 00:48:52,063
Well, I hate to say this,
but we're just going to have to find out.
968
00:48:52,114 --> 00:48:55,483
Mr. McAvoy, I find you in contempt of court
969
00:48:55,534 --> 00:48:58,452
and order you to surrender yourself to the US Marshals
970
00:48:58,487 --> 00:49:01,456
in this building on this day at 5:00 PM.
971
00:49:01,489 --> 00:49:04,458
Yes, sir.
972
00:49:17,757 --> 00:49:20,307
Hey, you know this is bullshit.
973
00:49:23,094 --> 00:49:24,679
I don't think you should wait for me.
974
00:49:24,730 --> 00:49:26,181
I think you should forget about me and move on.
975
00:49:26,231 --> 00:49:28,400
- Okay.
- Listen, remember,
976
00:49:28,434 --> 00:49:31,318
only my conversations with my lawyer are privileged.
977
00:49:31,353 --> 00:49:33,237
Right? What we were talking about last night.
978
00:49:33,271 --> 00:49:36,074
- Yeah, or your wife.
- Yeah, but you wanted to be a June bride...
979
00:49:36,108 --> 00:49:37,826
I don't anymore. I want to get married now.
980
00:49:37,860 --> 00:49:39,945
I think you should have thought about that... Wait.
981
00:49:39,947 --> 00:49:42,414
- Are you serious?
- I'm more than serious.
982
00:49:42,447 --> 00:49:43,998
We get a waiver from the mayor's office
983
00:49:44,032 --> 00:49:45,750
and use the chapel at City Hall.
984
00:49:45,784 --> 00:49:47,869
Honey, we've got 300 people coming to a wedding
985
00:49:47,920 --> 00:49:49,753
you've been planning for 25 years.
986
00:49:49,789 --> 00:49:52,373
Remember the seven weeks I spent picking the invitations?
987
00:49:52,425 --> 00:49:55,626
- I really do.
- Done.
988
00:49:55,677 --> 00:49:58,797
"I'm marrying Will today at 3:30 PM at City Hall..."
989
00:49:58,798 --> 00:50:00,547
"...if you guys want to come."
990
00:50:00,599 --> 00:50:02,851
- Congratulations!
- Finally!
991
00:50:02,934 --> 00:50:05,019
That... That's what... I was begging...
992
00:50:05,054 --> 00:50:06,887
for seven weeks we were looking...
993
00:50:06,938 --> 00:50:09,641
Different cardboard... Okay.
994
00:50:09,643 --> 00:50:11,608
For that little stunt, I'm gonna marry your ass off.
995
00:50:11,643 --> 00:50:14,528
Charlie, Don, Gary, Jim, Martin, we're putting on a wedding.
996
00:50:14,563 --> 00:50:16,780
- This is men's work.
- All right.
997
00:50:16,815 --> 00:50:19,818
- Let's go. City Hall, here we come.
- You finally grew a brain.
998
00:52:49,300 --> 00:52:52,436
- I saw on the news.
- Thanks for seeing me, Phil.
999
00:52:52,471 --> 00:52:54,304
You really want to spend your last hours of freedom
1000
00:52:54,356 --> 00:52:56,690
arguing with me about something that's 2,000 years old?
1001
00:52:56,724 --> 00:52:59,527
No, we can do that another time. I wanted to ask a favor.
1002
00:52:59,561 --> 00:53:02,396
Mac and I have moved our wedding
up from June to this afternoon.
1003
00:53:02,447 --> 00:53:05,199
MacKenzie, while not being as religious as, say, you are,
1004
00:53:05,233 --> 00:53:07,818
- she's not a full-on whack job or anything...
- Yeah.
1005
00:53:07,869 --> 00:53:11,489
She is devout and a Catholic
service would mean a lot to her.
1006
00:53:11,523 --> 00:53:13,541
I can do that. Where are you being married?
1007
00:53:13,576 --> 00:53:15,909
At the chapel at City Hall.
1008
00:53:15,960 --> 00:53:18,829
Catholic service has to be performed in a Catholic church.
1009
00:53:18,831 --> 00:53:21,632
Doesn't that sound like one of
those rules we've talked about?
1010
00:53:21,666 --> 00:53:25,420
God's omniscient,
but He's only willing to work in certain buildings?
1011
00:53:25,471 --> 00:53:28,422
- That's not...
- Like it's a union thing.
1012
00:53:28,474 --> 00:53:30,175
Fine.
1013
00:53:30,177 --> 00:53:33,393
Thank you. I'll have a car waiting at 3:15.
1014
00:53:37,565 --> 00:53:38,932
Will.
1015
00:53:38,983 --> 00:53:40,684
You want to pray with me?
1016
00:53:52,164 --> 00:53:54,764
♪ Ave Maria ♪
1017
00:54:06,461 --> 00:54:09,061
♪ Gratia plena... ♪
1018
00:54:14,719 --> 00:54:17,054
You have to make a grand apology to her.
1019
00:54:17,056 --> 00:54:18,940
- Really grand.
- I know.
1020
00:54:18,974 --> 00:54:22,226
- Canyon grand.
- I know.
1021
00:54:22,277 --> 00:54:25,112
- Where's Professor Ethics?
- We had a fight.
1022
00:54:25,146 --> 00:54:27,782
About what?
1023
00:54:27,815 --> 00:54:29,483
Nothing.
1024
00:54:39,711 --> 00:54:42,914
Rejoice with those who rejoice.
1025
00:54:42,965 --> 00:54:45,750
Weep with those who weep.
1026
00:54:45,751 --> 00:54:47,835
Have the same regard for one another.
1027
00:54:47,885 --> 00:54:51,222
Do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly.
1028
00:54:51,257 --> 00:54:54,007
Do not be wise in your own estimation.
1029
00:54:58,931 --> 00:55:01,932
Do not repay anyone evil for evil.
1030
00:55:01,983 --> 00:55:04,936
Be concerned for what is noble in the sight of all.
1031
00:55:04,938 --> 00:55:08,273
If possible, on your part,
1032
00:55:08,275 --> 00:55:10,440
live at peace with all.
1033
00:55:10,492 --> 00:55:13,494
- The word of the Lord.
- Thanks be to God.
1034
00:55:27,509 --> 00:55:30,177
Do you take this man to be your lawful wedded husband?
1035
00:55:31,713 --> 00:55:33,630
I do.
1036
00:55:33,681 --> 00:55:36,967
Do you take this woman to be your lawful wedded wife?
1037
00:55:38,436 --> 00:55:40,221
I do.
