1
00:00:04,838 --> 00:00:06,307
Previously on The West Wing.

2
00:00:06,374 --> 00:00:07,808
( tires squealing )

3
00:00:07,875 --> 00:00:09,510
Mr. President?

4
00:00:10,878 --> 00:00:12,513
G.W.! Blue! Blue!

5
00:00:12,580 --> 00:00:13,681
Josh...

6
00:00:13,747 --> 00:00:16,417
didn't you hear me
shouting for you?

7
00:00:16,484 --> 00:00:17,218
I need a doctor!

8
00:00:17,285 --> 00:00:18,919
Pulse/ox is 92 on 15 liters.

9
00:00:18,986 --> 00:00:20,621
I need to get
to New Hampshire.

10
00:00:20,688 --> 00:00:22,690
Josh, I'd like you
to come to Nashua,
New Hampshire

11
00:00:22,756 --> 00:00:24,792
Thursday night
and hear Jed
Bartlet speak.

12
00:00:24,858 --> 00:00:26,127
I work for Senator Hoynes.

13
00:00:26,194 --> 00:00:27,928
Come to Nashua
Thursday night.

14
00:00:27,995 --> 00:00:28,829
Why?

15
00:00:28,896 --> 00:00:30,131
Because that's what

16
00:00:30,198 --> 00:00:31,565
sons do for old friends
of their father's.

17
00:00:31,632 --> 00:00:33,801
If I see the real thing
in Nashua, should I tell you?

18
00:00:33,867 --> 00:00:34,968
You won't have to.

19
00:00:35,035 --> 00:00:36,204
Why?

20
00:00:36,270 --> 00:00:37,271
You've got a pretty
bad poker face.

21
00:00:37,338 --> 00:00:38,739
Two shooters in that window.

22
00:00:38,806 --> 00:00:40,007
We got them both from the roof,
but there was a signal.

23
00:00:40,074 --> 00:00:41,309
There was somebody
on the ground?

24
00:00:41,375 --> 00:00:43,311
White male, 20, 25,
maybe five-ten.

25
00:00:54,322 --> 00:00:55,989
TV Anchor:
The White House is telling us

26
00:00:56,056 --> 00:00:58,792
that there will be a press
conference at 7:30 Eastern.

27
00:00:58,859 --> 00:01:01,629
That's about four hours
from now.

28
00:01:01,695 --> 00:01:03,597
Deputy White House
Chief of Staff

29
00:01:03,664 --> 00:01:05,733
Joshua Lyman
is currently undergoing

30
00:01:05,799 --> 00:01:09,203
extensive surgery
to repair a collapsed lung

31
00:01:09,270 --> 00:01:11,672
and to remove a bullet
that remains lodged

32
00:01:11,739 --> 00:01:13,107
in his thoracic region.

33
00:01:13,174 --> 00:01:14,542
Now, for an update
on his condition

34
00:01:14,608 --> 00:01:16,310
let's go live now
to Lynn Blakely

35
00:01:16,377 --> 00:01:19,213
who's standing by
at George Washington Hospital.

36
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:21,615
She's got the latest for us.

37
00:01:21,682 --> 00:01:23,951
Wait. We're not going
to Lynn just yet.

38
00:01:24,017 --> 00:01:26,754
Now, I'm being told that
authorities are reporting

39
00:01:26,820 --> 00:01:29,657
another gunshot victim,
a woman who had...

40
00:01:31,091 --> 00:01:34,128
( helicopter approaching )

41
00:01:35,196 --> 00:01:39,333
( sirens wailing )

42
00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:40,334
FBI!

43
00:01:40,401 --> 00:01:41,769
Let me see those hands!

44
00:01:41,835 --> 00:01:42,870
Police! Hold it right there!

45
00:01:42,936 --> 00:01:44,004
Get down!

46
00:01:44,071 --> 00:01:45,773
( officers yelling )

47
00:01:49,377 --> 00:01:51,145
Get on the ground!

48
00:01:51,212 --> 00:01:52,913
Get all the way down!

49
00:01:52,980 --> 00:01:54,248
Get on the ground!

50
00:01:54,315 --> 00:01:56,217
Get on the ground!

51
00:01:56,284 --> 00:01:57,451
Get on the ground!

52
00:02:50,638 --> 00:02:52,840
that a suspect has been taken
into custody

53
00:02:52,906 --> 00:02:55,509
and is being questioned
by Federal law enforcement.

54
00:02:55,576 --> 00:02:58,512
At this time, we cannot,
we are not releasing

55
00:02:58,579 --> 00:03:01,449
any information whatsoever
about the suspect.

56
00:03:01,515 --> 00:03:04,252
C.J., can you tell us anything,
his name, where he's from

57
00:03:04,318 --> 00:03:07,455
ethnicity, if you guys
suspect a motive?

58
00:03:07,521 --> 00:03:09,156
Yes, Steve, I can tell you
all those things

59
00:03:09,223 --> 00:03:10,691
because when I said

60
00:03:10,758 --> 00:03:12,526
we weren't releasing
any information whatsoever

61
00:03:12,593 --> 00:03:14,962
I meant except his name,
his address, his ethnicity

62
00:03:15,028 --> 00:03:16,630
and what we think
his motive was.

63
00:03:16,697 --> 00:03:17,798
All:
C.J.!

64
00:03:17,865 --> 00:03:20,100
I am releasing the name
of Stephanie Abbott

65
00:03:20,167 --> 00:03:25,806
A-B-B-O-T-T, of Silver Spring,
Maryland, who was in the crowd

66
00:03:25,873 --> 00:03:28,709
and sustained an injury
to the left femur

67
00:03:28,776 --> 00:03:30,344
which is the thigh bone.

68
00:03:30,411 --> 00:03:33,080
The President remains
in stable condition

69
00:03:33,146 --> 00:03:34,582
in the recovery room

70
00:03:34,648 --> 00:03:38,018
and is expected to be released
sometime Wednesday.

71
00:03:38,085 --> 00:03:40,854
Josh Lyman is now in his

72
00:03:40,921 --> 00:03:44,057
sixth hour of surgery
to repair a collapsed lung

73
00:03:44,124 --> 00:03:47,428
and a ruptured pulmonary artery.

74
00:03:47,495 --> 00:03:50,197
We likely won't have an update
on his condition

75
00:03:50,264 --> 00:03:51,899
until the procedure is complete

76
00:03:51,965 --> 00:03:55,936
which they expect won't be
for another six or eight hours.

77
00:03:56,003 --> 00:03:58,739
We'll keep you updated
in the next hour.

78
00:03:58,806 --> 00:04:00,040
Thank you very much.

79
00:04:00,107 --> 00:04:03,277
( reporters clamoring )

80
00:04:08,616 --> 00:04:10,318
Ma'am, does
the President know

81
00:04:10,384 --> 00:04:11,352
they've arrested
a suspect?

82
00:04:11,419 --> 00:04:13,354
Yes. I told him.

83
00:04:13,421 --> 00:04:14,755
He's pretty groggy

84
00:04:14,822 --> 00:04:16,424
after the anesthesia.

85
00:04:16,490 --> 00:04:18,426
Sam. Toby. You've
got a phone call

86
00:04:18,492 --> 00:04:19,760
in the other room.

87
00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:27,868
Donna...

88
00:04:29,770 --> 00:04:33,407
do you want to throw
some water on your face?

89
00:04:33,474 --> 00:04:36,477
You know, I... I should ask:

90
00:04:36,544 --> 00:04:39,079
Is there anything I'm supposed
to be doing right now?

91
00:04:39,146 --> 00:04:40,348
No.

92
00:04:40,414 --> 00:04:41,982
I mean anything
that Josh's office

93
00:04:42,049 --> 00:04:43,317
is supposed to be doing?

94
00:04:43,384 --> 00:04:45,052
Should I be making sure
it's farmed out?

95
00:04:45,118 --> 00:04:46,954
No. I'm sure
it's covered.

96
00:04:57,698 --> 00:05:00,501
You got them
on the phone?
Yeah.

97
00:05:00,568 --> 00:05:01,402
Guys?

98
00:05:01,469 --> 00:05:02,703
Sam:
Yeah, we're here.

99
00:05:02,770 --> 00:05:04,338
Sam, I need you to come back
to the White House

100
00:05:04,405 --> 00:05:06,073
and speak to Nancy McNally
about a letter the President

101
00:05:06,139 --> 00:05:07,575
was supposed to sign.

102
00:05:07,641 --> 00:05:09,076
She'll know
what you're talking about.

103
00:05:09,142 --> 00:05:10,077
Yeah, all right.

104
00:05:10,143 --> 00:05:11,412
And Toby?
Yeah?

105
00:05:11,479 --> 00:05:14,715
They're still asking
about the tent.

106
00:05:14,782 --> 00:05:15,916
Yeah.

107
00:05:15,983 --> 00:05:17,718
I'd be more comfortable
with the no comment

108
00:05:17,785 --> 00:05:19,052
coming from the Secret Service,
so...

109
00:05:19,119 --> 00:05:20,220
What's this?

110
00:05:20,287 --> 00:05:21,355
They want to know
why the President

111
00:05:21,422 --> 00:05:23,391
exited the building
in the open air.

112
00:05:23,457 --> 00:05:25,292
I'll talk to somebody
at Treasury.

113
00:05:25,359 --> 00:05:26,360
I'll do it.
Let me.

114
00:05:26,427 --> 00:05:27,828
Toby:
No.
Someone.

115
00:05:27,895 --> 00:05:29,363
Toby, we were all
in the meeting together.

116
00:05:29,430 --> 00:05:30,364
Go back to the office.

117
00:05:30,431 --> 00:05:32,099
Okay. Okay.

118
00:05:36,637 --> 00:05:38,439
Man:
Can the ships pass inspection?

119
00:05:38,506 --> 00:05:40,441
The ships will
be registered in
Libya and Panama

120
00:05:40,508 --> 00:05:41,909
so they won't be subject
to the O.P.A.

121
00:05:41,975 --> 00:05:43,811
which wouldn't allow
an American company

122
00:05:43,877 --> 00:05:45,879
to keep a tanker like this
in service very long.

123
00:05:45,946 --> 00:05:46,880
I think 2017.

124
00:05:46,947 --> 00:05:49,116
I think 2015,
and we'll check that

125
00:05:49,182 --> 00:05:50,618
but you get the idea.

126
00:05:50,684 --> 00:05:53,286
I think all that's left,
then, is to dot the Ts, huh?

127
00:05:53,353 --> 00:05:55,523
Actually,
I have a thing.

128
00:05:55,589 --> 00:05:56,890
I have a thing
I was going to mention.

129
00:05:56,957 --> 00:05:58,659
Just a proposal
to throw out there.

130
00:05:58,726 --> 00:06:00,127
When I was
a Congressional aide

131
00:06:00,193 --> 00:06:01,361
we had an expression:

132
00:06:01,429 --> 00:06:03,263
"No idea was too stupid
to say out loud."

133
00:06:03,330 --> 00:06:05,065
So here it is, and bear me out:

134
00:06:05,132 --> 00:06:08,802
Instead of buying these ships,
don't buy these ships.

135
00:06:08,869 --> 00:06:12,205
Buy other ships.
Buy better ships.

136
00:06:12,272 --> 00:06:13,474
That's my idea.

137
00:06:13,541 --> 00:06:14,708
What's he talking about?

138
00:06:14,775 --> 00:06:16,710
That's a perfectly fair
question, Sam.

139
00:06:16,777 --> 00:06:18,479
What the hell
are you talking about?

140
00:06:18,546 --> 00:06:20,047
And the good news is,
we have a no-penalty clause

141
00:06:20,113 --> 00:06:21,882
we can exercise if we pull out
before the first of December.

142
00:06:21,949 --> 00:06:23,751
But, Sam, we want
these ships.

143
00:06:23,817 --> 00:06:25,986
This is as little
as we've ever paid
for a fleet.

144
00:06:26,053 --> 00:06:28,388
Well, there's a reason why
they don't cost a lot of money.

145
00:06:28,456 --> 00:06:31,224
They're 20-year-old,
single-hulled VLCCs
that nobody else wants.

146
00:06:31,291 --> 00:06:32,626
When they hit things,
they will break

147
00:06:32,693 --> 00:06:34,327
and they will hit things
because they don't have

148
00:06:34,394 --> 00:06:35,496
state-of-the-art
navigation systems.

149
00:06:35,563 --> 00:06:36,930
They don't have
G-3 tank gauging

150
00:06:36,997 --> 00:06:38,599
or EM-5000
engine monitoring

151
00:06:38,666 --> 00:06:40,834
the recommended staletronic
or electropneumatic ballast.

152
00:06:40,901 --> 00:06:42,035
And yesterday he didn't know

153
00:06:42,102 --> 00:06:44,805
the difference
between a ship and a boat.

154
00:06:44,872 --> 00:06:46,173
Sam, I thought
you told us

155
00:06:46,239 --> 00:06:47,441
you covered our liability.

156
00:06:47,508 --> 00:06:49,477
I did. Strictly speaking, I did.

157
00:06:49,543 --> 00:06:51,044
But there's a broader liability
to think about.

158
00:06:51,111 --> 00:06:53,346
People drove past Exxon stations
after Valdez.

159
00:06:53,413 --> 00:06:55,148
We've got P.R. firms
for P.R. problems.

160
00:06:55,215 --> 00:06:56,717
There's a Suez tanker
ready to launch

161
00:06:56,784 --> 00:06:58,351
in the Koje Island Shipyard
in Korea.

162
00:06:58,418 --> 00:06:59,787
Chevron just dropped
the option.

163
00:06:59,853 --> 00:07:01,421
It's sitting in a cradle.
Let's go get it.

164
00:07:01,489 --> 00:07:04,024
Sam, could I talk to you
for a second?

165
00:07:04,091 --> 00:07:07,360
308,000 deadweight tons,
carries 2.2 million gallons.

166
00:07:07,427 --> 00:07:09,062
You can have it today
for 46 million.

167
00:07:09,129 --> 00:07:09,797
Sam?

168
00:07:09,863 --> 00:07:10,664
$46 million?

169
00:07:10,731 --> 00:07:12,466
That's a good price.

170
00:07:12,533 --> 00:07:15,002
Sam, what are you doing?

171
00:07:15,068 --> 00:07:16,303
I think I have
an obligation.

172
00:07:16,369 --> 00:07:18,472
What are you doing?

173
00:07:18,539 --> 00:07:19,773
Maybe they want
to buy safer boats

174
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:20,774
but we never gave
them the option.

175
00:07:20,841 --> 00:07:22,075
Are you trying
to get fired?

176
00:07:22,142 --> 00:07:23,343
Maybe they're really
going to thank us

177
00:07:23,410 --> 00:07:24,344
for this suggestion.

178
00:07:24,411 --> 00:07:25,679
Knock it off, Sam.

179
00:07:25,746 --> 00:07:27,214
Look...
Knock it off!

180
00:07:32,820 --> 00:07:34,387
I'm looking, uh, operator...

181
00:07:34,454 --> 00:07:37,224
I'm looking for the number
of a law firm in Manhattan.

182
00:07:37,290 --> 00:07:38,659
Here's the thing:

183
00:07:38,726 --> 00:07:40,528
I can't quite remember
the name of the firm...

184
00:07:40,594 --> 00:07:41,695
No, wait, wait, wait!

185
00:07:41,762 --> 00:07:43,196
I just got back
from New Hampshire

186
00:07:43,263 --> 00:07:45,566
where I saw this guy,
and now I have to...

187
00:07:45,633 --> 00:07:48,736
Listen, it's a very famous firm.

188
00:07:48,802 --> 00:07:50,370
They handled Shearson.

189
00:07:50,437 --> 00:07:51,371
You must know...

190
00:07:51,438 --> 00:07:52,272
Okay. You know what?

191
00:07:52,339 --> 00:07:53,240
I'm just going...

192
00:07:53,306 --> 00:07:54,241
Okay. Bye.

193
00:07:54,307 --> 00:07:55,242
Aah!

194
00:07:57,811 --> 00:07:59,246
That's amortized over...

195
00:07:59,312 --> 00:08:00,247
15 years.

196
00:08:00,313 --> 00:08:01,048
Pretax?

197
00:08:01,114 --> 00:08:01,749
Sam?

198
00:08:01,815 --> 00:08:02,683
Hmm?

199
00:08:02,750 --> 00:08:04,785
15-year pretax
amortization?

200
00:08:06,854 --> 00:08:08,756
11 million extra dollars.

201
00:08:08,822 --> 00:08:10,558
We're back to this.
Money will be spent.

202
00:08:10,624 --> 00:08:11,925
You can spend it now
or spend it later

203
00:08:11,992 --> 00:08:13,594
but it's cheaper
to spend it now.

204
00:08:13,661 --> 00:08:14,862
Sam...
It's also the
right thing to do.

205
00:08:14,928 --> 00:08:16,764
Spend 11 million
extra dollars.
Sam...

206
00:08:16,830 --> 00:08:18,065
Spend it on
a better boat.
Damn it!

207
00:08:18,131 --> 00:08:19,967
The Amoco Cadiz:
68 million gallons

208
00:08:20,033 --> 00:08:21,468
of crude oil
off Brittany, France.

209
00:08:21,535 --> 00:08:22,870
Braer, a Liberian tanker

210
00:08:22,936 --> 00:08:24,572
26 million gallons
off the Shetland Islands.

211
00:08:24,638 --> 00:08:26,406
I just pulled these off
the Internet last night.

212
00:08:26,473 --> 00:08:29,610
The Exxon Valdez,
the Aegean Sea,
The Argo Merchant--

213
00:08:29,677 --> 00:08:31,178
Look it up.
I'm sure they're...

214
00:08:31,244 --> 00:08:33,113
Spend 11 million
extra dollars.
Sam, that's enough.

215
00:08:33,180 --> 00:08:34,381
You don't want
to pay for it?

216
00:08:34,447 --> 00:08:35,816
Sam!
Pass the expense
on us.

217
00:08:35,883 --> 00:08:37,517
A half a penny
at the tank.
Here's five bucks.

218
00:08:37,585 --> 00:08:39,386
Sam!
A thousand people
are on me.

219
00:08:39,452 --> 00:08:40,688
( knock on door )

220
00:08:43,957 --> 00:08:45,358
Sam, we are
in the middle of a meeting.

221
00:08:45,425 --> 00:08:47,194
Yeah.

222
00:08:47,260 --> 00:08:51,799
Sam, we're not indifferent
to the concerns of the
environmentalists...

223
00:08:51,865 --> 00:08:53,166
Loch:
Excuse me, Sam?

224
00:08:53,233 --> 00:08:54,635
Yeah.

225
00:08:54,702 --> 00:08:58,271
It doesn't quite feel like
I have your attention.

226
00:08:58,338 --> 00:08:59,973
Yeah?

227
00:09:04,144 --> 00:09:05,245
Yeah.

228
00:09:06,446 --> 00:09:07,480
Yeah.

229
00:09:07,547 --> 00:09:09,049
I'm not going to need that.

230
00:09:09,116 --> 00:09:09,917
Sam?

231
00:09:09,983 --> 00:09:10,718
Sam?

232
00:09:10,784 --> 00:09:12,485
Sam, please keep your seat.

233
00:09:12,552 --> 00:09:13,621
Sam, where are you going?

234
00:09:13,687 --> 00:09:14,855
New Hampshire!

235
00:09:24,364 --> 00:09:25,866
If you'll just follow me.

236
00:09:30,170 --> 00:09:31,104
Sam.
Yeah.

237
00:09:31,171 --> 00:09:32,339
I wanted to see if...

238
00:09:32,405 --> 00:09:33,741
How's your head?
Oh, fine.

239
00:09:33,807 --> 00:09:35,743
I wanted to see if you
talked to Nancy McNally.

240
00:09:35,809 --> 00:09:37,244
Yeah, and she talked
to Counsel's Office

241
00:09:37,310 --> 00:09:39,012
and they're going
to work on a few things

242
00:09:39,079 --> 00:09:40,748
to see what we like,
but I can tell you...

243
00:09:40,814 --> 00:09:42,249
Sam, you didn't
happen to notice...

244
00:09:42,315 --> 00:09:44,084
When the shooting started,
you didn't happen to notice

245
00:09:44,151 --> 00:09:47,655
who pulled me to
the ground, did you?

246
00:09:47,721 --> 00:09:49,322
They pulled me down
No.behind a police car

247
00:09:49,389 --> 00:09:50,423
and my necklace
came off.

248
00:09:50,490 --> 00:09:52,359
Oh.

249
00:09:52,425 --> 00:09:53,727
You talked to
Nancy McNally?

250
00:09:53,794 --> 00:09:54,561
Yeah.
Okay.

251
00:09:54,628 --> 00:09:56,363
Oh, C.J.--
Yeah.

252
00:09:56,429 --> 00:09:58,031
You need to call back
Debbie at the Today Show.
Why?

253
00:09:58,098 --> 00:09:59,667
We said you might be willing
to do the morning shows

254
00:09:59,733 --> 00:10:01,101
when they go on
the air at 7:00.

255
00:10:01,168 --> 00:10:02,703
No, that's
not a good...
They just wanted...

256
00:10:02,770 --> 00:10:03,671
I'm not going to do
any interviews just yet.

257
00:10:03,737 --> 00:10:05,138
I'm not doing it.

258
00:10:05,205 --> 00:10:06,640
I'll take care of it.
Which one
of our people...

259
00:10:06,707 --> 00:10:08,075
It was a mistake.
I'll take care of it.

260
00:10:08,141 --> 00:10:09,242
C.J.?
Yeah.

261
00:10:09,309 --> 00:10:11,211
I really don't want
to be this guy, so...

262
00:10:11,278 --> 00:10:13,113
Somebody around here thought
I should do the morning shows.

263
00:10:13,180 --> 00:10:14,181
I still don't
have an answer.

264
00:10:14,247 --> 00:10:15,615
Who was in charge?

265
00:10:15,683 --> 00:10:19,119
3 1/2 hours, the
President
was under anesthesia.

266
00:10:19,186 --> 00:10:21,521
Danny, it's...
a little complicated.

267
00:10:21,588 --> 00:10:25,625
There's something called the
National Security Act of 1947.

268
00:10:25,693 --> 00:10:27,160
There's the 25th.

269
00:10:27,227 --> 00:10:29,863
Nancy McNally, Bill Hutchinson,
the White House Counsel

270
00:10:29,930 --> 00:10:31,231
they're all working on it
right now.

271
00:10:31,298 --> 00:10:32,499
Yeah, but they're
going to tell me

272
00:10:32,565 --> 00:10:33,701
who was supposed
to be in charge.

273
00:10:33,767 --> 00:10:35,669
I want to know
who was in charge.

274
00:10:35,736 --> 00:10:39,807
And we are working
on that information.

275
00:10:39,873 --> 00:10:42,209
We're working on it.

276
00:10:52,285 --> 00:10:54,087
( phone ringing )

277
00:10:58,759 --> 00:11:00,127
Hello?

278
00:11:02,495 --> 00:11:03,997
Yeah.

279
00:11:07,835 --> 00:11:10,738
Isobel, it's 6:30
in the morning.

280
00:11:11,872 --> 00:11:13,006
( sighs )

281
00:11:13,073 --> 00:11:14,207
Yeah.

282
00:11:20,781 --> 00:11:21,915
( knock on door )

283
00:11:21,982 --> 00:11:23,717
Man:
Excuse me. C.J.'s here.

284
00:11:23,784 --> 00:11:25,452
Thank you.

285
00:11:25,518 --> 00:11:27,654
Good morning, Isobel.

286
00:11:27,721 --> 00:11:29,089
Hello, Roger.

287
00:11:29,156 --> 00:11:31,491
I asked her to be
here 45 minutes ago.

288
00:11:31,558 --> 00:11:32,525
I'm sorry.

289
00:11:32,592 --> 00:11:33,861
I said,
I asked you...

290
00:11:33,927 --> 00:11:35,362
Roger...
It was 6:30
in the morning.

291
00:11:35,428 --> 00:11:38,866
I wasn't quite ready for work,
but I am now.

292
00:11:38,932 --> 00:11:40,400
How can I help you?

293
00:11:40,467 --> 00:11:43,636
Are you aware that
the Golden Globe nominations

294
00:11:43,703 --> 00:11:45,839
were announced this morning?

295
00:11:46,807 --> 00:11:48,742
I wasn't.

296
00:11:48,809 --> 00:11:50,243
Am I up for something?

297
00:11:50,310 --> 00:11:54,647
C.J., Atlantis only got
two nominations.

298
00:11:54,714 --> 00:11:55,648
For the entire studio.

299
00:11:55,715 --> 00:11:56,884
Best Comedy Score

300
00:11:56,950 --> 00:11:59,119
and Supporting Actor
for the kid.

301
00:11:59,186 --> 00:12:01,488
That's what $20,000
a month bought us.

302
00:12:01,554 --> 00:12:04,391
Roger, I think we
put together a very
aggressive campaign.

303
00:12:04,457 --> 00:12:05,926
Two nominations.

304
00:12:05,993 --> 00:12:07,928
That's two nominations more
than a lot of people got.

305
00:12:07,995 --> 00:12:09,830
Are you aware
that the new

306
00:12:09,897 --> 00:12:12,833
Premiere magazine list
is coming out Monday?

307
00:12:12,900 --> 00:12:15,102
The hundred most powerful
people in Hollywood.

308
00:12:15,168 --> 00:12:15,668
Yeah.

309
00:12:15,735 --> 00:12:16,870
Yes, I am.

310
00:12:16,937 --> 00:12:18,171
And I can tell you
that you're on it

311
00:12:18,238 --> 00:12:21,008
and congratulations,
and it must, you know

312
00:12:21,074 --> 00:12:22,910
feel... good being
that powerful.

313
00:12:22,976 --> 00:12:24,244
I went from third to ninth.

314
00:12:24,311 --> 00:12:26,780
I dropped to ninth.
Do you know how that looks?

315
00:12:26,847 --> 00:12:29,649
Do you know how many other
people were ahead of me?

316
00:12:29,716 --> 00:12:30,617
Eight?

317
00:12:30,683 --> 00:12:31,852
Lady, you're...

318
00:12:31,919 --> 00:12:33,553
The movies were bad,
Roger. All of them.

319
00:12:33,620 --> 00:12:36,423
Even the little kid
was bad, but he's
a little kid.

320
00:12:36,489 --> 00:12:37,524
He had a couple
of scenes

321
00:12:37,590 --> 00:12:39,692
big eyeglasses,
little lisp.

322
00:12:39,759 --> 00:12:41,161
He's going to
the Golden Globes.

323
00:12:41,228 --> 00:12:43,897
You know why the New Coke
marketing campaign failed?

324
00:12:43,964 --> 00:12:45,365
Because nobody
liked New Coke.

325
00:12:45,432 --> 00:12:46,533
The movies were bad.

326
00:12:46,599 --> 00:12:48,468
If the movies
were unknown,
I could help you.

327
00:12:48,535 --> 00:12:49,336
But they weren't.

328
00:12:49,402 --> 00:12:52,405
They were just bad.

329
00:12:52,472 --> 00:12:56,844
Roger, would you excuse us
for just a second, please?

330
00:13:01,882 --> 00:13:02,883
Sorry I talked
to him like that

331
00:13:02,950 --> 00:13:04,384
but did he really think

332
00:13:04,451 --> 00:13:06,854
he had The Maltese
Falcon out there?

333
00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:10,657
The thing is, C.J.,
he's big business for me.

334
00:13:10,723 --> 00:13:12,392
I'll apologize
to him, Isobel.

335
00:13:12,459 --> 00:13:16,063
I'll find someone
to make him Man
of the Year.

336
00:13:16,129 --> 00:13:17,831
I'll ask around
in Vegas.

337
00:13:17,898 --> 00:13:18,932
He wants you fired.

338
00:13:18,999 --> 00:13:21,301
He thinks you're
a smart-mouth.

339
00:13:21,368 --> 00:13:24,271
He's going to
pull his business
unless you fire me?

340
00:13:24,337 --> 00:13:27,908
This was never what you
wanted to be doing, C.J.

341
00:13:27,975 --> 00:13:29,843
You've always felt
it was beneath you.

342
00:13:29,910 --> 00:13:31,178
It is beneath me.

343
00:13:31,244 --> 00:13:32,712
C.J....
So take me off
film and television.

344
00:13:32,779 --> 00:13:33,746
I don't know anything
about it anyway.

345
00:13:33,813 --> 00:13:34,982
We have plenty
of accounts...

346
00:13:35,048 --> 00:13:38,919
I need to keep his business.
I'm sorry.

347
00:13:42,789 --> 00:13:44,324
You're firing me?

348
00:13:44,391 --> 00:13:45,558
I'm sorry.

349
00:13:45,625 --> 00:13:47,060
Out here in the hallway?

350
00:13:47,127 --> 00:13:49,662
C.J....
I need someone
to call me a cab.

351
00:13:49,729 --> 00:13:50,931
I'm sorry?

352
00:13:50,998 --> 00:13:53,100
I couldn't get my
contacts in this morning

353
00:13:53,166 --> 00:13:55,668
and I broke my glasses
getting out of the car.

354
00:13:55,735 --> 00:13:57,037
I can't drive
myself home.

355
00:13:57,104 --> 00:14:00,941
I need someone
to call me a cab.

356
00:14:01,008 --> 00:14:04,777
Could you call a taxi
for C.J., please?

357
00:14:04,844 --> 00:14:06,146
I have to go back in.

358
00:14:06,213 --> 00:14:08,215
Mmm.

359
00:14:08,281 --> 00:14:10,817
It was a bad
movie, Isobel.

360
00:14:10,884 --> 00:14:14,321
Assistant:
Yes, I need a taxi
to Beverly Hills, please.

361
00:14:44,684 --> 00:14:45,752
Hello?

362
00:14:45,818 --> 00:14:47,154
Hey, C.J.

363
00:14:50,723 --> 00:14:51,824
Who is that?

364
00:14:51,891 --> 00:14:53,326
It's me.

365
00:14:56,229 --> 00:14:57,197
Toby?

366
00:14:57,264 --> 00:14:58,665
Yeah.

367
00:14:58,731 --> 00:15:00,433
What the hell are you...?

368
00:15:04,904 --> 00:15:07,040
C.J., you fell
into the pool, there.

369
00:15:07,107 --> 00:15:08,775
I can't see.

370
00:15:08,841 --> 00:15:10,143
Yeah, well, maybe

371
00:15:10,210 --> 00:15:13,080
uh, kind of try and feel
your way to dry land.

372
00:15:13,146 --> 00:15:14,247
Want a hand?

373
00:15:14,314 --> 00:15:15,682
Shut up.

374
00:15:17,884 --> 00:15:19,886
Avert your eyes.

375
00:15:19,953 --> 00:15:20,954
What?

376
00:15:21,021 --> 00:15:22,255
I'm climbing
out of the pool.

377
00:15:22,322 --> 00:15:23,957
My clothes will be clingy.

378
00:15:24,024 --> 00:15:25,025
Avert your eyes.

379
00:15:25,092 --> 00:15:26,960
( chuckling )

380
00:15:27,027 --> 00:15:28,528
C.J., I really didn't
come here...

381
00:15:28,595 --> 00:15:29,529
Avert your eyes!

382
00:15:29,596 --> 00:15:31,164
Okay.

383
00:15:39,506 --> 00:15:40,673
Oh, turn around.

384
00:15:44,911 --> 00:15:46,146
I tried calling you
at your office.

385
00:15:46,213 --> 00:15:47,514
They said you were fired.

386
00:15:47,580 --> 00:15:49,416
Were you stealing things?

387
00:15:49,482 --> 00:15:52,585
Roger Becker dropped
from third most powerful
person in Hollywood

388
00:15:52,652 --> 00:15:54,887
to ninth most powerful person
in Hollywood.

389
00:15:54,954 --> 00:15:57,124
Does he still make the playoffs
or is the cutoff line...?

390
00:15:57,190 --> 00:15:59,726
They take it seriously.

391
00:15:59,792 --> 00:16:04,597
C.J., Jed Bartlet's
very impressed with you.

392
00:16:04,664 --> 00:16:05,999
He likes the
work you did

393
00:16:06,066 --> 00:16:10,137
with that girls' group
with the stupid name.

394
00:16:10,203 --> 00:16:11,604
Emily's List?
Yes.

395
00:16:11,671 --> 00:16:14,074
That girls' group
with the stupid name?
Yes.

396
00:16:14,141 --> 00:16:15,908
Emily's List.
Early money is like Yeast?

397
00:16:15,975 --> 00:16:17,944
It helps raise
the dough.
Yeah. I get it.

398
00:16:18,011 --> 00:16:19,779
They raise money
for women candidates.

399
00:16:19,846 --> 00:16:21,148
Early money is like yeast.

400
00:16:21,214 --> 00:16:25,218
It helps raise the dough...
for the candidates.

401
00:16:25,285 --> 00:16:26,786
I really do get it.

402
00:16:26,853 --> 00:16:27,820
Bartlet's impressed with me?

403
00:16:27,887 --> 00:16:29,022
Very impressed.

404
00:16:29,089 --> 00:16:30,923
And one of the big
keys to his game plan

405
00:16:30,990 --> 00:16:33,493
is bringing you on
as Press Secretary.

406
00:16:37,330 --> 00:16:38,565
He's never heard
of me, has he?

407
00:16:38,631 --> 00:16:39,532
No.

408
00:16:39,599 --> 00:16:40,633
Toby...

409
00:16:40,700 --> 00:16:42,202
I'm here on instructions
from Leo McGarry.

410
00:16:42,269 --> 00:16:43,703
McGarry wants me?

411
00:16:43,770 --> 00:16:46,106
Yes. Come join the campaign.

412
00:16:50,110 --> 00:16:51,078
How much does it pay?

413
00:16:51,144 --> 00:16:52,479
How much were you
making before?

414
00:16:52,545 --> 00:16:53,613
$550,000 a year.

415
00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:54,781
This pays $600 a week.

416
00:16:54,847 --> 00:16:58,351
So this is less.
Yes.

417
00:16:58,418 --> 00:17:02,422
Toby... does he know
I've only ever worked statewide?

418
00:17:02,489 --> 00:17:04,324
Does he know I've never worked
on a national campaign?

419
00:17:04,391 --> 00:17:07,460
Yes. It's graduation day.

420
00:17:10,397 --> 00:17:14,000
You really think
I can do this?

421
00:17:14,067 --> 00:17:17,070
Yeah.

422
00:17:17,137 --> 00:17:18,538
Is Jed Bartlet a good man?

423
00:17:18,605 --> 00:17:19,572
Yeah.

424
00:17:19,639 --> 00:17:21,108
Toby?

425
00:17:23,076 --> 00:17:24,477
Yes.

426
00:17:27,314 --> 00:17:29,316
Then... let's go into the house

427
00:17:29,382 --> 00:17:30,417
so I can change
my clothes

428
00:17:30,483 --> 00:17:31,618
and we'll talk about it.

429
00:17:31,684 --> 00:17:32,652
C.J.?
Yeah?

430
00:17:32,719 --> 00:17:34,587
The house is over there.

431
00:17:34,654 --> 00:17:35,655
Okay.

432
00:17:38,991 --> 00:17:40,059
Ron:
One of them was using

433
00:17:40,127 --> 00:17:41,461
a nine-millimeter Beretta.

434
00:17:41,528 --> 00:17:43,496
The other had a
.357 Desert Eagle.

435
00:17:43,563 --> 00:17:46,533
Ron's saying that these are
absolutely the wrong weapons

436
00:17:46,599 --> 00:17:48,501
to use for a shooting
of this kind

437
00:17:48,568 --> 00:17:50,703
and that's why the injury count
was as low as it was.

438
00:17:50,770 --> 00:17:53,273
We don't know
what the injury count is yet.

439
00:17:53,340 --> 00:17:55,708
( door opens )
Yeah, but his point is...

440
00:17:55,775 --> 00:17:56,709
Charlie:
Excuse me, sir.

441
00:17:56,776 --> 00:17:58,745
I was told
you wanted to see me.

442
00:17:58,811 --> 00:17:59,779
Yeah.

443
00:18:03,716 --> 00:18:07,720
Charlie, the guy the Secret
Service have in custody

444
00:18:07,787 --> 00:18:10,990
is named Carl LeRoy.

445
00:18:11,057 --> 00:18:12,625
He gives a statement
in which he says

446
00:18:12,692 --> 00:18:15,295
that he and the two shooters
were members of an organization

447
00:18:15,362 --> 00:18:18,831
called West Virginia
White Pride.

448
00:18:18,898 --> 00:18:23,503
They tried to kill the President
'cause Zoey and I are together?

449
00:18:23,570 --> 00:18:25,172
No.

450
00:18:26,839 --> 00:18:28,208
Why did...?

451
00:18:28,275 --> 00:18:31,944
Charlie, the President
wasn't the target.

452
00:18:32,011 --> 00:18:33,313
According to
the statement

453
00:18:33,380 --> 00:18:36,983
the President
wasn't the target.

454
00:18:37,049 --> 00:18:39,118
Oh.

455
00:18:41,488 --> 00:18:42,689
Okay.

456
00:18:47,260 --> 00:18:48,628
Okay, well...

457
00:18:52,499 --> 00:18:54,000
Okay.

458
00:18:54,066 --> 00:18:56,002
Thank you, Mr. President.

459
00:18:56,068 --> 00:18:57,437
Sure.

460
00:18:59,572 --> 00:19:00,907
Dad, I'm going to...

461
00:19:00,973 --> 00:19:02,141
Go.

462
00:19:10,517 --> 00:19:13,453
We don't know
what the injury
count is yet.

463
00:19:24,397 --> 00:19:26,733
Margaret:
He was supposed
to sign a letter?

464
00:19:26,799 --> 00:19:29,269
If the President is going
under general anesthesia

465
00:19:29,336 --> 00:19:30,670
he usually signs a letter

466
00:19:30,737 --> 00:19:33,506
handing over executive powers
to the Vice President.

467
00:19:33,573 --> 00:19:36,776
And the President
didn't sign a letter?

468
00:19:36,843 --> 00:19:38,545
Nope. We blew that play.

469
00:19:38,611 --> 00:19:40,179
Is there going
to be trouble?

470
00:19:40,247 --> 00:19:41,214
We'll see.

471
00:19:41,281 --> 00:19:42,315
To be honest with you

472
00:19:42,382 --> 00:19:43,716
I don't really care
right now.

473
00:19:45,918 --> 00:19:49,456
Can... can I just say something,
you know, for the future?

474
00:19:49,522 --> 00:19:51,258
Yeah.

475
00:19:51,324 --> 00:19:53,192
I can sign the President's name.

476
00:19:53,260 --> 00:19:54,261
I have his signature down

477
00:19:54,327 --> 00:19:56,529
pretty good.

478
00:19:56,596 --> 00:19:57,964
You can sign
the President's name?

479
00:19:58,030 --> 00:19:59,165
Yeah.

480
00:19:59,232 --> 00:20:01,200
On a document
removing him from power

481
00:20:01,268 --> 00:20:02,569
and handing it
to someone else?

482
00:20:02,635 --> 00:20:03,970
Yeah.

483
00:20:05,605 --> 00:20:07,507
Or do you think
the White House Counsel

484
00:20:07,574 --> 00:20:09,276
would say that was a bad idea?

485
00:20:09,342 --> 00:20:12,945
I think the White House Counsel
would say that's a coup d'etat.

486
00:20:13,012 --> 00:20:15,081
Well, I'd probably end up
doing some time for that.

487
00:20:15,147 --> 00:20:16,849
I would think.

488
00:20:16,916 --> 00:20:18,518
Leo...
And what the hell
are you doing

489
00:20:18,585 --> 00:20:20,086
practicing
the President's signature?

490
00:20:20,152 --> 00:20:21,220
It's just for fun.

491
00:20:21,288 --> 00:20:22,989
We've got separation
of powers

492
00:20:23,055 --> 00:20:24,190
checks and balances

493
00:20:24,257 --> 00:20:25,425
and Margaret vetoing things

494
00:20:25,492 --> 00:20:27,093
and sending them back
to the Hill.

495
00:20:27,159 --> 00:20:29,061
Leo, who thought
it was good idea
for me to do the morning shows?

496
00:20:29,128 --> 00:20:30,530
I did.

497
00:20:30,597 --> 00:20:31,698
Why?

498
00:20:31,764 --> 00:20:33,466
The President's not ready
for cameras.

499
00:20:33,533 --> 00:20:35,067
If it's the Vice President

500
00:20:35,134 --> 00:20:37,169
it's going to look like
we don't have a president.

501
00:20:37,236 --> 00:20:38,605
And I'd like
the White House

502
00:20:38,671 --> 00:20:39,972
to start climbing out
from behind the bushes.

503
00:20:40,039 --> 00:20:41,574
I think it's a bad idea.

504
00:20:41,641 --> 00:20:42,575
Why?

505
00:20:42,642 --> 00:20:45,912
I just...

506
00:20:46,879 --> 00:20:49,849
it's inappropriate
while Josh... I think

507
00:20:49,916 --> 00:20:50,783
You know, until...

508
00:20:50,850 --> 00:20:51,784
What's wrong?

509
00:20:51,851 --> 00:20:54,587
Nothing.

510
00:20:54,654 --> 00:20:55,154
C.J....

511
00:20:55,221 --> 00:20:56,456
Nothing.

512
00:20:58,291 --> 00:20:59,892
I'd rather not do it,
but, obviously...

513
00:20:59,959 --> 00:21:01,494
Have Sam do it.

514
00:21:01,561 --> 00:21:03,396
Okay.

515
00:21:03,463 --> 00:21:04,664
Listen,
the letter...

516
00:21:04,731 --> 00:21:05,264
Yeah.

517
00:21:05,332 --> 00:21:06,833
The 3 1/2 hours.

518
00:21:06,899 --> 00:21:08,835
I don't know
how much longer
I can dance around Danny

519
00:21:08,901 --> 00:21:11,203
and it's going to be Danny
times a hundred by lunchtime.

520
00:21:11,270 --> 00:21:12,238
Have him come see me.

521
00:21:12,305 --> 00:21:13,072
Yeah?

522
00:21:13,139 --> 00:21:15,442
Yeah.
Okay.

523
00:21:15,508 --> 00:21:17,710
She doesn't want to
do the morning shows.

524
00:21:17,777 --> 00:21:19,412
She says she's been getting
a couple questions

525
00:21:19,479 --> 00:21:21,748
about why the President
exited in the open air.

526
00:21:21,814 --> 00:21:23,215
They remember that
the Secret Service

527
00:21:23,282 --> 00:21:26,285
used to construct
a tent or a canopy.

528
00:21:26,353 --> 00:21:27,620
I'm going to talk
to Ron Butterfield.

529
00:21:27,687 --> 00:21:29,288
He's going to say
the Secret Service

530
00:21:29,356 --> 00:21:30,657
doesn't comment
on procedure.

531
00:21:30,723 --> 00:21:33,259
I know, but maybe I
can talk him out of it.

532
00:21:33,326 --> 00:21:34,461
I... I should
try anyway.

533
00:21:34,527 --> 00:21:36,329
You don't have to, Toby.

534
00:21:36,396 --> 00:21:39,065
Yeah. I should, though.

535
00:21:39,131 --> 00:21:40,867
Okay.

536
00:21:44,671 --> 00:21:46,272
TV Anchor:
...won the non-binding
straw poll

537
00:21:46,339 --> 00:21:47,774
pulling in 48% of the vote.

538
00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:49,909
Senator William Wiley
of Washington State

539
00:21:49,976 --> 00:21:53,646
drew a poorer-than-expected
22% of the vote.

540
00:21:53,713 --> 00:21:56,583
But the story this morning
is the 19% of the vote

541
00:21:56,649 --> 00:21:59,085
picked up by former New
Hampshire Governor Jed Bartlet

542
00:21:59,151 --> 00:22:01,187
who leapfrogged several
Democratic candidates

543
00:22:01,253 --> 00:22:02,855
to finish a surprising third.

544
00:22:02,922 --> 00:22:04,691
And we're going to go now
to Governor Bartlet

545
00:22:04,757 --> 00:22:06,959
who's standing by live...

546
00:22:07,026 --> 00:22:10,262
Okay, I'm told we don't have
the Governor at this moment.

547
00:22:10,329 --> 00:22:11,598
So, while we try...

548
00:22:11,664 --> 00:22:13,366
Okay, who can tell me
what we did wrong there?

549
00:22:13,433 --> 00:22:14,734
I blew it.
What's next?

550
00:22:14,801 --> 00:22:15,968
"We didn't have
the candidate."

551
00:22:16,035 --> 00:22:17,537
That's right.
Anybody who answered...

552
00:22:17,604 --> 00:22:19,205
What's next?

553
00:22:19,271 --> 00:22:21,273
Josh:
Toby wants to say something.

554
00:22:21,340 --> 00:22:23,209
Which one is Toby?

555
00:22:23,275 --> 00:22:24,143
I am.

556
00:22:24,210 --> 00:22:25,344
And which one are you?

557
00:22:25,412 --> 00:22:26,479
I'm Josh.

558
00:22:26,546 --> 00:22:28,548
What was it you wanted to say?

559
00:22:28,615 --> 00:22:29,782
Let's get out
of New Hampshire.

560
00:22:29,849 --> 00:22:30,417
Why?

561
00:22:30,483 --> 00:22:31,384
Nothing to win here.

562
00:22:31,451 --> 00:22:32,485
He's right.

563
00:22:32,552 --> 00:22:33,720
The New Hampshire primary

564
00:22:33,786 --> 00:22:35,455
isn't held
in New Hampshire anymore?

565
00:22:35,522 --> 00:22:36,756
You can't win
the New Hampshire primary.

566
00:22:36,823 --> 00:22:38,190
I'm going to win
the New Hampshire primary.

567
00:22:38,257 --> 00:22:39,726
Which is why you can't win it.

568
00:22:39,792 --> 00:22:41,561
Josh:
You're incredibly popular
in this state.

569
00:22:41,628 --> 00:22:43,996
You're a Democrat who was
elected with 69% of the vote.

570
00:22:44,063 --> 00:22:45,331
That's unheard of.

571
00:22:45,398 --> 00:22:46,533
There's no way you can
exceed expectations.

572
00:22:46,599 --> 00:22:48,768
All you can hope for
is an "as expected"

573
00:22:48,835 --> 00:22:52,271
and there's the possibility
you can embarrass yourself.

574
00:22:52,338 --> 00:22:53,573
I appreciate that. Thanks.

575
00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:54,474
Toby meant the polls.

576
00:22:54,541 --> 00:22:55,642
I know what he meant.

577
00:22:55,708 --> 00:22:57,276
Toby:
So Hoynes will
be in a fight

578
00:22:57,343 --> 00:23:00,146
with Wiley for a strong second
place finish in New Hampshire.

579
00:23:00,212 --> 00:23:01,714
Meantime, we're going
to be in South Carolina

580
00:23:01,781 --> 00:23:03,215
and we're going
to be the only
ones there.

581
00:23:03,282 --> 00:23:05,051
We won't beat Hoynes
in South Carolina.

582
00:23:05,117 --> 00:23:06,819
We don't have to beat Hoynes
in South Carolina.

583
00:23:06,886 --> 00:23:08,455
We just have to beat Wiley.

584
00:23:08,521 --> 00:23:10,590
Wiley's going to drop out
after South Carolina?

585
00:23:10,657 --> 00:23:12,358
If he doesn't finish
higher than third.

586
00:23:12,425 --> 00:23:14,260
Are we going to get
his endorsement?

587
00:23:14,326 --> 00:23:16,295
We're going to get his money,
that's for sure.

588
00:23:16,362 --> 00:23:17,263
It's for sure?

589
00:23:17,329 --> 00:23:18,264
Josh thinks it is.

590
00:23:18,330 --> 00:23:19,599
Which one is Josh?

591
00:23:20,332 --> 00:23:22,034
I am.

592
00:23:22,101 --> 00:23:23,369
Okay.

593
00:23:23,436 --> 00:23:26,172
So, we finish second
in South Carolina

594
00:23:26,238 --> 00:23:28,174
we pick up some steam,
some endorsements--

595
00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:31,644
mostly some money,
going into South Dakota,
Vermont and Maine.

596
00:23:31,711 --> 00:23:33,345
Sam:
Where we'll come away
with a split, maybe better.

597
00:23:33,412 --> 00:23:36,015
Now the prohibitive nominee
for the Democratic nomination

598
00:23:36,082 --> 00:23:37,416
has lost three of the
first seven contests...

599
00:23:37,484 --> 00:23:38,585
And half the actual primaries.

600
00:23:38,651 --> 00:23:39,719
Sam:
...leading
into Super Tuesday.

601
00:23:39,786 --> 00:23:41,153
Josh:
Hoynes will
win the South.

602
00:23:41,220 --> 00:23:42,889
We'll take the North
and the Pacific Northwest.

603
00:23:42,955 --> 00:23:44,356
This race will be decided
a week later in Illinois.

604
00:23:44,423 --> 00:23:45,625
Illinois's going
to be High Noon.

605
00:23:46,793 --> 00:23:48,995
do we have a shot at California
Sam, iand New York?llinois

606
00:23:49,061 --> 00:23:51,631
If we win in Illinois,
we're going to run the table.

607
00:23:51,698 --> 00:23:53,232
Well, that's it, then.

608
00:23:53,299 --> 00:23:55,201
And we've saved people
the trouble of voting.

609
00:23:55,267 --> 00:23:56,335
What's next?

610
00:23:56,402 --> 00:23:57,637
Our point is that it's...

611
00:23:57,704 --> 00:23:59,171
I understood
the point.

612
00:23:59,238 --> 00:24:01,373
We're going to
South Carolina
to set up Illinois.

613
00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:02,809
When I ask what's next

614
00:24:02,875 --> 00:24:05,512
it means I'm
ready to move on
to other things.

615
00:24:05,578 --> 00:24:06,479
So, what's next?

616
00:24:06,546 --> 00:24:07,379
Leo:
We're done.

617
00:24:07,446 --> 00:24:08,615
Fantastic.

618
00:24:11,984 --> 00:24:15,321
Well, I feel bathed
in the warm embrace
of the candidate, Leo.

619
00:24:15,387 --> 00:24:16,723
He's really
very easy to like

620
00:24:16,789 --> 00:24:18,858
once you get
to know him.

621
00:24:18,925 --> 00:24:21,227
How many people
get that far?

622
00:24:21,293 --> 00:24:22,428
Not that many.

623
00:24:22,495 --> 00:24:23,630
Okay.

624
00:24:23,696 --> 00:24:25,632
Donna:
Josh Lyman.

625
00:24:25,698 --> 00:24:28,467
No, he's not
available right now.

626
00:24:28,535 --> 00:24:30,269
This afternoon
he's got a media session

627
00:24:30,336 --> 00:24:32,304
and then a 4:00 with finance.

628
00:24:32,371 --> 00:24:33,940
If you leave your name,
I can give Josh the message

629
00:24:34,006 --> 00:24:35,441
when he gets back.

630
00:24:35,508 --> 00:24:37,243
Thank you very much.

631
00:24:37,309 --> 00:24:38,244
Hi.

632
00:24:38,310 --> 00:24:39,612
Hi.
Who are you?

633
00:24:39,679 --> 00:24:41,013
I'm Donna Moss.
Who are you?

634
00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:42,014
I'm Josh Lyman.

635
00:24:42,081 --> 00:24:43,215
Ah.

636
00:24:43,282 --> 00:24:44,150
Yes.

637
00:24:44,216 --> 00:24:46,085
I'm your new assistant.

638
00:24:46,152 --> 00:24:46,953
Did I have an old assistant?

639
00:24:47,019 --> 00:24:47,920
Maybe not.

640
00:24:47,987 --> 00:24:49,421
Who are you?
I'm Donna Moss.

641
00:24:49,488 --> 00:24:50,523
I came in to volunteer

642
00:24:50,590 --> 00:24:51,423
and the woman
assigned me to you.

643
00:24:51,490 --> 00:24:52,592
Which woman?
Betsy.

644
00:24:52,659 --> 00:24:53,760
You mean Margaret?
Yes.

645
00:24:53,826 --> 00:24:54,927
Who are you?
I'm Donna Moss.

646
00:24:54,994 --> 00:24:56,428
I'll be working
as your assistant.

647
00:24:56,495 --> 00:24:57,797
I'm going to talk
to Margaret.

648
00:24:57,864 --> 00:24:59,131
Actually, Josh...
Yeah?

649
00:24:59,198 --> 00:25:01,100
When I said I was
assigned to you
Yeah?

650
00:25:01,167 --> 00:25:04,904
I may have been
overstating it
a little.

651
00:25:04,971 --> 00:25:05,738
Who are you?

652
00:25:05,805 --> 00:25:06,906
I'm Donna Moss.

653
00:25:06,973 --> 00:25:08,841
I drove here from
Madison, Wisconsin.

654
00:25:08,908 --> 00:25:10,610
When did your boyfriend
break up with you?

655
00:25:10,677 --> 00:25:12,612
What makes you think
my boyfriend broke
up with me?

656
00:25:12,679 --> 00:25:13,813
Well, you're too old
for your parents

657
00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:15,147
to have kicked you out
of the house.

658
00:25:15,214 --> 00:25:16,583
I'm here because I want
to work for Bartlet.

659
00:25:16,649 --> 00:25:18,350
I'm a college graduate
with a degree

660
00:25:18,417 --> 00:25:19,686
in Political Science
and Government.

661
00:25:19,752 --> 00:25:21,087
Where did you graduate?

662
00:25:21,153 --> 00:25:22,088
Hmm?

663
00:25:22,154 --> 00:25:23,590
Where did you graduate?

664
00:25:23,656 --> 00:25:25,124
Okay, when I said
I graduated

665
00:25:25,191 --> 00:25:26,358
Yeah?

666
00:25:26,425 --> 00:25:27,994
I may have been
overstating a little.

667
00:25:28,060 --> 00:25:30,096
I was a couple
of credits short.

668
00:25:30,162 --> 00:25:30,830
From where?

669
00:25:30,897 --> 00:25:32,298
University
of Wisconsin.

670
00:25:32,364 --> 00:25:33,900
And you majored
in Political Science
and Government?

671
00:25:33,966 --> 00:25:36,335
And, uh... Sociology
and Psychology.
Uh-huh.

672
00:25:36,402 --> 00:25:39,471
And Biology for a while
with a minor in French.

673
00:25:39,538 --> 00:25:40,339
Okay.

674
00:25:40,406 --> 00:25:41,741
And, uh, Drama.

675
00:25:41,808 --> 00:25:44,944
You had five majors
and two minors
in four years?

676
00:25:45,011 --> 00:25:45,945
Two years.

677
00:25:46,012 --> 00:25:47,279
Uh, listen...

678
00:25:47,346 --> 00:25:48,748
I had to drop out.

679
00:25:48,815 --> 00:25:51,050
I had to drop out.

680
00:25:51,117 --> 00:25:53,085
Your boyfriend was
older than you?

681
00:25:53,152 --> 00:25:55,755
I think that question's
of a personal nature.

682
00:25:55,822 --> 00:25:57,089
Donna, you were
just at my desk

683
00:25:57,156 --> 00:25:59,225
reading my calendar,
answering my phone

684
00:25:59,291 --> 00:26:01,493
and hoping I wouldn't notice
that I never hired you.

685
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:02,795
Your boyfriend was older?

686
00:26:02,862 --> 00:26:03,596
Yes.

687
00:26:03,663 --> 00:26:05,031
Law student?
Medical student.

688
00:26:05,097 --> 00:26:06,766
The idea was you'd drop
out and pay the bills

689
00:26:06,833 --> 00:26:08,400
till he's done
with his residency.

690
00:26:08,467 --> 00:26:09,669
Yes.
And did you?

691
00:26:09,736 --> 00:26:11,838
And why did Dr. Freeride
break up with you?

692
00:26:11,904 --> 00:26:15,074
What makes you think
he broke up with me?

693
00:26:22,081 --> 00:26:25,184
Donna, this is a campaign
for the Presidency

694
00:26:25,251 --> 00:26:27,053
and there's nothing I take
more seriously than that.

695
00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:28,821
This can't be a place
for people to come

696
00:26:28,888 --> 00:26:31,223
to find their
confidence
and start over.

697
00:26:31,290 --> 00:26:33,860
Why not?
I'm sorry?

698
00:26:33,926 --> 00:26:35,227
Why can't it be
those things?

699
00:26:35,294 --> 00:26:36,228
Because...

700
00:26:36,295 --> 00:26:38,731
Is it going to interfere
with my typing?

701
00:26:38,798 --> 00:26:41,868
Donna, we're picking up today
and going to South Carolina.

702
00:26:41,934 --> 00:26:43,435
If you want to stay
in the Manchester office...

703
00:26:43,502 --> 00:26:44,436
I want to come to Charleston.

704
00:26:44,503 --> 00:26:45,938
I can't carry you, Donna.

705
00:26:46,005 --> 00:26:47,640
I've got a lot of guys out there
not making the trip.

706
00:26:47,707 --> 00:26:48,474
I'll pay my own way.

707
00:26:48,540 --> 00:26:49,942
With what?

708
00:26:50,009 --> 00:26:52,244
I'll sleep on the floor,
I'll sell my car.

709
00:26:52,311 --> 00:26:53,479
Eventually you're going
to put me on salary.

710
00:26:53,545 --> 00:26:54,814
Donna...

711
00:26:54,881 --> 00:26:58,084
Look, I think
I can be good at this.

712
00:26:59,819 --> 00:27:02,554
I think you might find me
valuable.

713
00:27:02,621 --> 00:27:04,891
( phone ringing )

714
00:27:09,729 --> 00:27:11,630
Go ahead.

715
00:27:15,802 --> 00:27:18,771
Bartlet for America,
Josh Lyman's office.

716
00:27:19,305 --> 00:27:21,573
Uh, yes.

717
00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:23,609
I think I'm going to have
somebody from the press office

718
00:27:23,676 --> 00:27:26,612
get back to you
if it relates to...

719
00:27:26,679 --> 00:27:28,114
Yes.

720
00:27:28,180 --> 00:27:29,849
Uh, yes.

721
00:27:32,518 --> 00:27:33,820
Yes.

722
00:27:37,023 --> 00:27:38,725
Yes.

723
00:27:40,159 --> 00:27:41,660
Suction.

724
00:27:46,933 --> 00:27:50,436
Pressure's holding:
131/65.

725
00:28:08,955 --> 00:28:10,089
( knocks on door )

726
00:28:10,156 --> 00:28:11,457
Hey, Spanky.

727
00:28:11,523 --> 00:28:12,591
Oh, God, what'd I do?

728
00:28:12,658 --> 00:28:15,294
Take a walk with me,
would you?

729
00:28:17,696 --> 00:28:19,465
They're taking him
off bypass now.

730
00:28:19,531 --> 00:28:20,800
Yeah, I just heard.

731
00:28:20,867 --> 00:28:22,468
I'm going to head
to the hospital.

732
00:28:22,534 --> 00:28:24,370
You did well
on the morning shows.

733
00:28:24,436 --> 00:28:25,738
Thanks.

734
00:28:25,805 --> 00:28:27,373
I told Leo the reason
I didn't want to do it

735
00:28:27,439 --> 00:28:30,009
was it didn't feel right
with Josh still in surgery.

736
00:28:30,076 --> 00:28:30,910
Yeah.

737
00:28:30,977 --> 00:28:33,880
You know what
the real reason was?

738
00:28:33,946 --> 00:28:34,981
The real reason?

739
00:28:35,047 --> 00:28:35,915
Yeah.

740
00:28:35,982 --> 00:28:37,249
No.

741
00:28:37,316 --> 00:28:38,550
I think you do.

742
00:28:38,617 --> 00:28:40,052
Listen, C.J....
Suzanne.

743
00:28:40,119 --> 00:28:42,721
The real reason I couldn't
go on the morning shows

744
00:28:42,789 --> 00:28:44,757
and give a firsthand account
of what happened

745
00:28:44,824 --> 00:28:46,225
was that I couldn't remember
what happened.

746
00:28:46,292 --> 00:28:48,060
I remember walking
out of the building.

747
00:28:48,127 --> 00:28:49,796
I remember somebody
knocking me down.

748
00:28:49,862 --> 00:28:51,197
I know my necklace came off

749
00:28:51,263 --> 00:28:53,432
and I know a police car window
exploded over my head.

750
00:28:53,499 --> 00:28:55,701
All night long, I've been
doing my press briefings

751
00:28:55,768 --> 00:28:57,436
using notes from other
people's accounts.

752
00:28:57,503 --> 00:29:00,506
But it's morning now
and I listened to you
on the morning shows

753
00:29:00,572 --> 00:29:02,942
and I know what happened.

754
00:29:03,009 --> 00:29:04,610
C.J....
Sam...

755
00:29:04,676 --> 00:29:06,512
I think you have my necklace.

756
00:29:08,848 --> 00:29:11,884
I didn't want you to
feel beholden to me.

757
00:29:11,951 --> 00:29:12,885
I didn't want it to
be like an episode

758
00:29:12,952 --> 00:29:14,086
of I Dream of Jeannie

759
00:29:14,153 --> 00:29:15,922
where now you've
got to save my life

760
00:29:15,988 --> 00:29:16,923
and the time-space
continuum

761
00:29:16,989 --> 00:29:18,057
with you following
me around

762
00:29:18,124 --> 00:29:19,658
with coconut oil
and hot towels.

763
00:29:19,725 --> 00:29:20,993
Coconut oil?
I'm just saying.

764
00:29:21,060 --> 00:29:22,628
Sam, I don't feel
beholden to you.

765
00:29:22,694 --> 00:29:23,662
Why not?
I saved your life.

766
00:29:23,729 --> 00:29:25,932
Can I have
my necklace back?

767
00:29:30,636 --> 00:29:32,704
Thank you.

768
00:29:32,771 --> 00:29:34,606
I'll be in my office.

769
00:29:34,673 --> 00:29:35,474
Sam?

770
00:29:35,541 --> 00:29:36,542
Yeah.

771
00:29:38,477 --> 00:29:39,979
Were you scared?

772
00:29:43,883 --> 00:29:46,618
Yeah.

773
00:29:46,685 --> 00:29:48,520
Me, too.

774
00:29:50,522 --> 00:29:51,824
Thanks.

775
00:30:01,934 --> 00:30:03,335
Good morning.

776
00:30:03,402 --> 00:30:04,636
I have an update

777
00:30:04,703 --> 00:30:05,938
and I can give you
a ballistics report.

778
00:30:06,005 --> 00:30:07,439
So, let's get started.

779
00:30:07,506 --> 00:30:09,041
( reporters clamoring )

780
00:30:16,448 --> 00:30:17,383
Ron?

781
00:30:17,449 --> 00:30:18,550
Hey, Toby.

782
00:30:18,617 --> 00:30:20,552
I heard they're about
to take him off bypass.

783
00:30:20,619 --> 00:30:21,954
Pretty soon, yeah.

784
00:30:22,021 --> 00:30:23,522
Listen, can I talk
to you for a second?
Yeah.

785
00:30:23,589 --> 00:30:25,057
Sergeant, I want those
people on that corner

786
00:30:25,124 --> 00:30:26,725
Yes, sir.
backed up another 200 feet.

787
00:30:26,792 --> 00:30:27,894
And if they move in again

788
00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:29,395
handcuff them
to a parking meter.

789
00:30:29,461 --> 00:30:30,396
How's your hand?

790
00:30:30,462 --> 00:30:31,397
It's fine.

791
00:30:31,463 --> 00:30:32,731
You should be home.

792
00:30:32,798 --> 00:30:35,101
What's on your mind?

793
00:30:35,167 --> 00:30:36,768
C.J.'s starting
to get some questions

794
00:30:36,835 --> 00:30:39,605
about why the President's exit
wasn't covered in Rosslyn.

795
00:30:39,671 --> 00:30:42,074
Secret Service doesn't
comment on procedure.

796
00:30:42,141 --> 00:30:45,677
Yeah. Ron, a few weeks after
the President was sworn in

797
00:30:45,744 --> 00:30:47,546
you got a memo
about his protection.

798
00:30:47,613 --> 00:30:48,981
Yeah?

799
00:30:49,048 --> 00:30:51,683
It said, he wanted to enter
and exit in the open air.

800
00:30:51,750 --> 00:30:53,019
He didn't like the feeling

801
00:30:53,085 --> 00:30:54,753
of traveling around
in an armored tank.

802
00:30:54,820 --> 00:30:55,587
Yeah.

803
00:30:55,654 --> 00:30:56,956
Specifically, it said

804
00:30:57,023 --> 00:30:59,091
he wouldn't use the tent
or the canopy anymore.

805
00:30:59,158 --> 00:31:00,292
Yeah.

806
00:31:00,359 --> 00:31:01,961
I wrote that memo

807
00:31:02,028 --> 00:31:04,163
and the President signed it
at my urging.

808
00:31:04,230 --> 00:31:06,132
I know.

809
00:31:06,198 --> 00:31:07,299
Ron, I don't think
it's right

810
00:31:07,366 --> 00:31:08,534
that the Secret Service
be blamed

811
00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:09,535
for what happened last night.

812
00:31:09,601 --> 00:31:10,769
I want the Treasury Department

813
00:31:10,836 --> 00:31:12,538
to hand over my memo
to the press.

814
00:31:12,604 --> 00:31:13,772
No, we can't do that.

815
00:31:13,839 --> 00:31:15,207
There are going to be
a lot of questions.

816
00:31:15,274 --> 00:31:16,708
There are always
a lot of questions.
Ron...

817
00:31:16,775 --> 00:31:17,944
Don't worry
about it, Toby.

818
00:31:18,010 --> 00:31:20,779
It's not right.
You're the guys...

819
00:31:20,846 --> 00:31:21,880
( sighs )

820
00:31:21,948 --> 00:31:23,182
Look at your hand.
My hand is fine.

821
00:31:23,249 --> 00:31:24,550
Your hand is not fine.
Toby...

822
00:31:24,616 --> 00:31:26,986
Let me go over there
and tell them it was my fault.

823
00:31:27,053 --> 00:31:28,254
It wasn't your fault.

824
00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:29,455
Ron...
It wasn't
your fault.

825
00:31:29,521 --> 00:31:30,923
It wasn't
Gina's fault.

826
00:31:30,990 --> 00:31:32,124
It wasn't
Charlie's fault.

827
00:31:32,191 --> 00:31:34,126
It wasn't anybody's
fault, Toby.

828
00:31:34,193 --> 00:31:35,327
It was an
act of madmen.

829
00:31:35,394 --> 00:31:37,196
You think a tent was
going to stop them?

830
00:31:37,263 --> 00:31:38,965
We got the President
in a car

831
00:31:39,031 --> 00:31:41,233
we got Zoey
in the car

832
00:31:41,300 --> 00:31:43,469
and at 150 yards
and five stories up

833
00:31:43,535 --> 00:31:46,005
the shooters were
down in 9.2 seconds

834
00:31:46,072 --> 00:31:47,873
after the first
shot was fired.

835
00:31:47,940 --> 00:31:51,210
I would never let you
not let me protect
the President.

836
00:31:51,277 --> 00:31:52,511
You tell us you
don't like something

837
00:31:52,578 --> 00:31:55,047
we figure out
something else.

838
00:31:55,114 --> 00:31:57,416
It was an act of madmen.

839
00:31:57,483 --> 00:32:01,153
Anyway, the Secret
Service doesn't
comment on procedure.

840
00:32:01,220 --> 00:32:02,488
Okay.

841
00:32:02,554 --> 00:32:04,856
Good job last night.

842
00:32:04,923 --> 00:32:06,425
Thank you.

843
00:32:16,702 --> 00:32:18,304
( sighs )

844
00:32:18,370 --> 00:32:22,441
Secret Service agents carry a
weapon called a .357 SIG-Sauer.

845
00:32:22,508 --> 00:32:25,244
The agents on the roof
shot the two gunmen

846
00:32:25,311 --> 00:32:29,248
with .726 caliber rifles
that are referred to as J.A.R.

847
00:32:29,315 --> 00:32:32,418
which, believe it or not, stands
for Just Another Rifle.

848
00:32:32,484 --> 00:32:34,920
They're made specifically
and exclusively

849
00:32:34,987 --> 00:32:37,123
for the Secret Service.

850
00:32:37,189 --> 00:32:40,226
I wanted to mention...
Leo?

851
00:32:40,292 --> 00:32:43,062
This is our fifth press briefing
since midnight

852
00:32:43,129 --> 00:32:44,730
and obviously there's one story

853
00:32:44,796 --> 00:32:46,798
that's going to be dominating
the news around the world

854
00:32:46,865 --> 00:32:48,134
for the next few days

855
00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:50,236
and, uh, it would be easy
to think that

856
00:32:50,302 --> 00:32:53,405
President Bartlet, Joshua Lyman
and Stephanie Abbott

857
00:32:53,472 --> 00:32:55,041
were the only people
who were victims

858
00:32:55,107 --> 00:32:56,675
of a gun crime last night.

859
00:32:56,742 --> 00:32:58,010
They weren't.

860
00:32:58,077 --> 00:33:01,113
Marks Davis and Sheila Evans
of Philadelphia

861
00:33:01,180 --> 00:33:02,714
were killed by a gun last night.

862
00:33:02,781 --> 00:33:06,452
He was a biology teacher
and she was a nursing student.

863
00:33:06,518 --> 00:33:08,620
Tina Bishop and Belinda Larkin

864
00:33:08,687 --> 00:33:10,622
were killed with a gun
last night.

865
00:33:10,689 --> 00:33:11,957
They were 12.

866
00:33:12,024 --> 00:33:14,593
There were 36 homicides
last night

867
00:33:14,660 --> 00:33:17,163
480 sexual assaults

868
00:33:17,229 --> 00:33:19,365
3,411 robberies

869
00:33:19,431 --> 00:33:22,901
3,685 aggravated assaults

870
00:33:22,968 --> 00:33:24,836
all at gunpoint.

871
00:33:24,903 --> 00:33:27,373
And if anyone thinks those
crimes could've been prevented

872
00:33:27,439 --> 00:33:28,974
if the victims themselves
had been carrying guns

873
00:33:29,041 --> 00:33:30,542
I'd only remind you

874
00:33:30,609 --> 00:33:33,745
that the President of the United
States was shot last night

875
00:33:33,812 --> 00:33:35,847
while surrounded
by the best trained armed guards

876
00:33:35,914 --> 00:33:39,785
in the history of the world.

877
00:33:39,851 --> 00:33:41,787
Back to the briefing.

878
00:33:41,853 --> 00:33:43,489
She's good.

879
00:33:43,555 --> 00:33:44,790
Yes, she is.

880
00:33:44,856 --> 00:33:45,824
Leo...

881
00:33:45,891 --> 00:33:46,892
I'm going
to the hospital.

882
00:33:46,958 --> 00:33:49,261
Why don't you
ride with me?

883
00:33:49,328 --> 00:33:50,296
Sam:
We're starting to get

884
00:33:50,362 --> 00:33:51,463
some good exit polling in

885
00:33:51,530 --> 00:33:52,698
from Stark County
and Rock Island.

886
00:33:52,764 --> 00:33:54,100
Leo:
How good?

887
00:33:54,166 --> 00:33:56,034
We're running
at 53 to 58 with
the undecideds

888
00:33:56,102 --> 00:33:59,138
from 72 hours ago
in the 12th, 14th
and 15th.

889
00:33:59,205 --> 00:34:00,139
That's the money.

890
00:34:00,206 --> 00:34:01,240
DeWitt County,
Cumberland.

891
00:34:01,307 --> 00:34:03,209
Yeah.
Who are you
talking to?

892
00:34:03,275 --> 00:34:05,010
I'm, um, talking to nobody.

893
00:34:05,077 --> 00:34:06,278
There's no one at my house.

894
00:34:06,345 --> 00:34:07,413
What's going on?

895
00:34:07,479 --> 00:34:09,181
Nothing. My dad
had his chemo today

896
00:34:09,248 --> 00:34:10,782
and these exit polls are
going to cheer him up.

897
00:34:10,849 --> 00:34:14,720
Sam says we got the 72-hour
undecideds in the 14th and 15th.

898
00:34:14,786 --> 00:34:18,124
Leo, Is there any food
in this room that isn't fried?

899
00:34:18,190 --> 00:34:20,392
Well, if there is,
let's get rid of it.
I'm not kidding.

900
00:34:20,459 --> 00:34:22,894
There's good exits
from Stark County
and Rock Island.

901
00:34:22,961 --> 00:34:24,196
How good?
Good.

902
00:34:24,263 --> 00:34:26,598
Leo, what the hell is this?

903
00:34:26,665 --> 00:34:28,634
That's Sam's draft
of your victory...

904
00:34:28,700 --> 00:34:32,037
"I congratulate my opponent
on a well-fought campaign
in Illinois"?

905
00:34:32,104 --> 00:34:33,105
You don't want to
congratulate him?

906
00:34:33,172 --> 00:34:34,473
Yes, I want
to congratulate him

907
00:34:34,540 --> 00:34:36,142
but I'd like to call him
by his name.

908
00:34:36,208 --> 00:34:37,476
Are we back
to this crap again?

909
00:34:37,543 --> 00:34:39,978
Leo, I want to go over
this whole thing with you.

910
00:34:40,045 --> 00:34:42,548
Excuse me.

911
00:34:42,614 --> 00:34:44,483
Bartlet:
It's the exact same crap

912
00:34:44,550 --> 00:34:45,284
all over again!

913
00:34:45,351 --> 00:34:46,518
It's amateur hour!

914
00:34:46,585 --> 00:34:47,286
Damn student...

915
00:34:47,353 --> 00:34:48,787
You can say it,
you know.

916
00:34:48,854 --> 00:34:52,324
It's not like I haven't
heard it before.

917
00:34:52,391 --> 00:34:55,794
Your husband's a real
son of bitch, Mrs. Bartlet.

918
00:34:56,995 --> 00:34:58,096
He doesn't like
being handled.

919
00:34:58,164 --> 00:34:59,331
Well, I think
if he looked around

920
00:34:59,398 --> 00:35:01,267
he'd see that nobody
is handling him.

921
00:35:04,069 --> 00:35:06,605
He's not ready yet, Josh.

922
00:35:06,672 --> 00:35:09,475
He's terrified.

923
00:35:09,541 --> 00:35:12,043
Well, is he going to beready?

924
00:35:12,110 --> 00:35:15,147
You bet your ass he will.

925
00:35:15,214 --> 00:35:16,548
In the meantime

926
00:35:16,615 --> 00:35:19,285
you want to kick
something, kick me.

927
00:35:20,619 --> 00:35:22,721
Toby!
Here it comes.

928
00:35:22,788 --> 00:35:25,357
TV Anchor:
With 17%
of the precincts reporting

929
00:35:25,424 --> 00:35:28,194
we are now ready to call
the Illinois Primary

930
00:35:28,260 --> 00:35:30,996
for former New Hampshire
Governor Jed Bartlet.

931
00:35:31,062 --> 00:35:33,165
Yes! Yes!

932
00:35:33,232 --> 00:35:34,800
( cheering )

933
00:35:34,866 --> 00:35:36,001
Hey, get
some music!

934
00:35:36,067 --> 00:35:37,569
Yes!

935
00:35:37,636 --> 00:35:40,539
( "Celebration"
by Kool and the Gang plays )

936
00:35:40,606 --> 00:35:42,174
Yes!
Hey!

937
00:35:42,241 --> 00:35:43,575
Way to go.

938
00:35:43,642 --> 00:35:44,710
Nice Job.

939
00:35:44,776 --> 00:35:45,544
Now let's get

940
00:35:45,611 --> 00:35:46,612
to California.

941
00:35:46,678 --> 00:35:48,480
Leo, we got to
replace this music!

942
00:35:48,547 --> 00:35:50,849
We got to replace it
with some Doobie Brothers!

943
00:35:50,916 --> 00:35:52,551
Josh...
You got to get
happy, Donna.

944
00:35:52,618 --> 00:35:53,952
You just won the
Illinois primary.

945
00:35:54,019 --> 00:35:55,153
No, Josh...
Come, dance with me.

946
00:35:55,221 --> 00:35:57,923
No, Josh,
your father died.

947
00:35:57,989 --> 00:36:00,326
TV Anchor:
...a lot of very happy
Bartlet supporters.

948
00:36:00,392 --> 00:36:01,560
We are told the candidate

949
00:36:01,627 --> 00:36:03,695
is in his suite
refining his remarks.

950
00:36:03,762 --> 00:36:06,465
He's due to make an appearance
here any moment.

951
00:36:06,532 --> 00:36:08,467
Just a little under
an hour ago now

952
00:36:08,534 --> 00:36:10,502
this room went
absolutely volcanic

953
00:36:10,569 --> 00:36:12,504
when the announcement
was made...

954
00:36:17,042 --> 00:36:19,845
Female recording:
Welcome to O'Hare
International Airport.

955
00:36:19,911 --> 00:36:23,782
We'd like to remind you
this is a smoke-free airport.

956
00:36:27,919 --> 00:36:29,388
Josh?

957
00:36:31,122 --> 00:36:32,391
Governor.

958
00:36:32,458 --> 00:36:33,892
Your father died, Josh.

959
00:36:33,959 --> 00:36:35,327
I can't believe it.

960
00:36:35,394 --> 00:36:37,829
Yeah. Governor,
you-you shouldn't be here.

961
00:36:37,896 --> 00:36:39,465
What happened?

962
00:36:42,133 --> 00:36:45,404
went in for his chemotherapy
and he unexpectedly developed

963
00:36:45,471 --> 00:36:48,607
what's called
a pulmonary embolism.

964
00:36:48,674 --> 00:36:49,275
It's a...

965
00:36:49,341 --> 00:36:50,175
It's a blood clot.

966
00:36:50,242 --> 00:36:51,943
Yeah.

967
00:36:52,010 --> 00:36:55,013
It went to his heart
and there was cardiac arrest.

968
00:36:55,080 --> 00:36:57,215
Yeah...

969
00:36:57,283 --> 00:36:58,984
Yeah.

970
00:36:59,050 --> 00:37:00,386
Governor, you should...

971
00:37:00,452 --> 00:37:02,321
you should really get back
to the ballroom

972
00:37:02,388 --> 00:37:05,624
so you can get on a plane
and get to California.

973
00:37:05,691 --> 00:37:07,192
He was a lawyer?

974
00:37:07,259 --> 00:37:09,060
Yeah. A litigator.

975
00:37:09,127 --> 00:37:10,562
Did he like that you
were in politics?

976
00:37:10,629 --> 00:37:13,965
I think he would've
liked grandchildren more.

977
00:37:14,032 --> 00:37:16,735
He would've.

978
00:37:16,802 --> 00:37:18,770
He liked that
I was working for you.

979
00:37:18,837 --> 00:37:19,971
He liked that
we were starting to do well.

980
00:37:20,038 --> 00:37:21,573
He would've liked tonight.

981
00:37:24,443 --> 00:37:26,077
At least his friends
and neighbors will be spared

982
00:37:26,144 --> 00:37:28,580
all the... you know...

983
00:37:28,647 --> 00:37:30,482
He would've been doing
some bragging right now?

984
00:37:30,549 --> 00:37:32,384
Yeah. Your name wouldn't
have come up, by the way.

985
00:37:32,451 --> 00:37:34,553
"My son won the Illinois
Primary tonight."

986
00:37:38,990 --> 00:37:43,862
Three more hours, he would've
been able to say that.

987
00:37:43,929 --> 00:37:45,964
He'd have been proud.

988
00:37:46,031 --> 00:37:48,467
He was already.

989
00:37:48,534 --> 00:37:50,268
Trust me, Josh.
I'm a father.

990
00:37:50,336 --> 00:37:52,771
He was already.

991
00:37:56,041 --> 00:37:57,208
I appreciate that,
Governor.

992
00:37:57,275 --> 00:38:00,346
You should really get back
to the hotel.

993
00:38:00,412 --> 00:38:02,681
Nah, I'm okay.

994
00:38:02,748 --> 00:38:05,317
Sir, not that I don't appreciate
your having come down here

995
00:38:05,384 --> 00:38:06,485
but there's a ballroom
full of people

996
00:38:06,552 --> 00:38:07,819
waiting for a victory speech.

997
00:38:07,886 --> 00:38:09,821
They'll wait.

998
00:38:09,888 --> 00:38:12,791
Yeah, they will, but the people
watching television won't.

999
00:38:15,661 --> 00:38:18,029
I've been a real
jackass to you, Josh.

1000
00:38:18,096 --> 00:38:20,532
Well...
To everybody.

1001
00:38:20,599 --> 00:38:24,636
Toby Ziegler,
C.J. Cregg,
Sam Seaborn...

1002
00:38:24,703 --> 00:38:26,304
Yeah?
Don't think I don't
know what you gave up

1003
00:38:26,372 --> 00:38:27,673
to work for this campaign

1004
00:38:27,739 --> 00:38:30,442
and don't think
I don't know your value.

1005
00:38:30,509 --> 00:38:33,078
And I'll never make you
think I don't again.

1006
00:38:36,314 --> 00:38:37,483
You got to be a
little impressed

1007
00:38:37,549 --> 00:38:39,317
I got those names
right just now.

1008
00:38:39,385 --> 00:38:41,687
Delta Airlines Flight 175

1009
00:38:41,753 --> 00:38:43,422
to Kennedy International
now boarding at Gate 56.

1010
00:38:43,489 --> 00:38:45,557
They're calling my flight.

1011
00:38:45,624 --> 00:38:48,059
You want me to go with you?

1012
00:38:48,126 --> 00:38:49,428
Go with me?

1013
00:38:49,495 --> 00:38:50,862
Maybe you want some
company on the plane.

1014
00:38:50,929 --> 00:38:52,864
I can get a ticket
and go with you.

1015
00:38:52,931 --> 00:38:54,733
Governor...

1016
00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:57,503
California.

1017
00:38:57,569 --> 00:38:58,704
You have to go to the ballroom

1018
00:38:58,770 --> 00:39:00,606
and give a victory speech
in prime time

1019
00:39:00,672 --> 00:39:03,442
and go to California.

1020
00:39:03,509 --> 00:39:04,476
I guess you're right.

1021
00:39:04,543 --> 00:39:06,044
You guess I'm right?

1022
00:39:06,111 --> 00:39:08,414
Listen to me, Governor,
if you don't lose this election

1023
00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:13,752
it isn't going to be because
you didn't try hard enough.

1024
00:39:13,819 --> 00:39:16,722
But it was nice
of you to ask.

1025
00:39:19,691 --> 00:39:21,259
Thank you.
I appreciate it.

1026
00:39:21,326 --> 00:39:23,729
...Delta Airlines Flight 175
to Kennedy International...

1027
00:39:23,795 --> 00:39:25,631
They're calling
your flight.

1028
00:39:56,394 --> 00:39:59,030
Is he going to
be all right?

1029
00:40:00,832 --> 00:40:02,634
He's going to be fine.

1030
00:40:02,701 --> 00:40:04,002
Good.

1031
00:40:09,240 --> 00:40:11,209
Leo...

1032
00:40:11,276 --> 00:40:13,545
Yeah?

1033
00:40:13,612 --> 00:40:15,714
I'm ready.

1034
00:40:24,756 --> 00:40:26,858
Governor Bartlet:
Tonight, what began

1035
00:40:26,925 --> 00:40:29,795
at the Commons
in Concord, Massachusetts

1036
00:40:29,861 --> 00:40:32,964
as an alliance
of farmers and workers

1037
00:40:33,031 --> 00:40:37,569
of cobblers and tinsmiths,
of statesmen and students

1038
00:40:37,636 --> 00:40:40,839
of mothers and wives,
of men and boys

1039
00:40:40,906 --> 00:40:44,576
lives two centuries later
as America!

1040
00:40:44,643 --> 00:40:46,277
( people cheering )

1041
00:40:46,344 --> 00:40:50,982
My name is Josiah Bartlet,
and I accept your nomination

1042
00:40:51,049 --> 00:40:56,254
for the Presidency
of the United States!

1043
00:40:56,321 --> 00:40:58,123
Holbrook:
Josh?

1044
00:40:58,189 --> 00:40:59,257
Josh?

1045
00:40:59,324 --> 00:41:00,291
Josh, wake up. It's okay.

1046
00:41:00,358 --> 00:41:01,960
I want you to wake up.

1047
00:41:26,585 --> 00:41:28,754
I couldn't
hear you, Josh.

1048
00:41:36,327 --> 00:41:39,464
What did he say?

1049
00:41:39,531 --> 00:41:41,499
He said,
"What's next?"
