MAN: The Vietnam peace talks
are continuing here in Paris today
3
00:02:32,866 --> 00:02:34,660
against the background of what to do
4
00:02:34,826 --> 00:02:36,912
about the release of
American prisoners of war.
5
00:02:37,079 --> 00:02:40,582
In the United States,
sentiment is running high
6
00:02:40,749 --> 00:02:45,045
for a complete accounting
for all of the POWs and MIAs -
7
00:02:45,212 --> 00:02:46,922
those listed as missing in action -
8
00:02:47,089 --> 00:02:48,465
before any treaty is signed.

(MAN WHISTLES SOFTLY)
10
00:02:50,175 --> 00:02:52,469
The prisoners, men such as these,
11
00:02:52,636 --> 00:02:54,262
are Americans who have been captured
12
00:02:54,429 --> 00:02:56,682
during the 10 years of fighting
in Vietnam.
13
00:02:56,848 --> 00:02:58,642
The Under Secretary of State,
Conrad Morgan,
14
00:02:58,809 --> 00:03:01,269
is the chief American delegate
to the talks.

(MAN HUMS SOFTLY)
16
00:03:02,979 --> 00:03:06,566
This morning, outside the mansion
in which the talks are being held,
17
00:03:06,733 --> 00:03:09,653
Morgan told reporters
that he is optimistic.
18
00:03:09,820 --> 00:03:11,196
I now sincerely believe that
19
00:03:11,363 --> 00:03:13,115
the North Vietnamese delegates
are dealing in good faith
20
00:03:13,281 --> 00:03:16,576
and that significant progress
can now be made.
21
00:03:16,743 --> 00:03:18,870
Mr Morgan, as chief delegate
to these talks,
22
00:03:19,037 --> 00:03:21,289
are you saying a final agreement
has been reached?
23
00:03:21,456 --> 00:03:23,041
What I'm saying, sir, is what I said.
24
00:03:23,208 --> 00:03:27,295
The situation is extremely delicate, but
significant progress can now be made.
25
00:03:27,462 --> 00:03:28,839
Is that clear?
26
00:03:29,005 --> 00:03:30,382
I certainly hope it is,
27
00:03:30,549 --> 00:03:32,926
because I would dearly appreciate
the ladies and gentlemen of the press
28
00:03:33,093 --> 00:03:34,469
getting that straight.
29
00:03:34,636 --> 00:03:38,557
What if Kuong Yen decides to throw
new roadblocks into these negotiations?
30
00:03:38,724 --> 00:03:41,476
I suppose we'll have to
take things one step at a time.
31
00:03:41,643 --> 00:03:43,687
Mr Morgan, there is one more question
32
00:03:43,854 --> 00:03:45,856
the American public
deserves to have answered.
33
00:03:46,022 --> 00:03:47,566
What about the MIAs,
the missing fir: action?
34
00:03:47,733 --> 00:03:49,484
Have you and Kuong Yen
discussed that at all?
35
00:03:49,651 --> 00:03:51,194
Yes, of course we have discussed that
36
00:03:51,361 --> 00:03:54,281
and we will continue
to discuss that question.
37
00:03:54,448 --> 00:03:56,825
But as I'm sure you can all realise,
38
00:03:56,992 --> 00:04:00,412
that is of such a sensitive nature that
I'm not at liberty to go into that now.
39
00:04:00,579 --> 00:04:04,416
I can only say this - that I'm very hopeful
that we will arrive at a solution.
40
00:04:04,583 --> 00:04:06,334
What the hell are you doing in my room?
41
00:04:06,501 --> 00:04:08,336
You told me to meet you here.
42
00:04:08,503 --> 00:04:11,882
Could have waited in the lobby.
Turn that goddamn thing off, please.
43
00:04:12,048 --> 00:04:13,508
I'm enjoying it.
44
00:04:13,675 --> 00:04:16,636
REPORTER: Mr Morgan, please,
can we have a statement...
45
00:04:16,803 --> 00:04:18,472

46
00:04:18,638 --> 00:04:20,974
Harolds, come on.
Bring that shit in here!

MAN: Corning, coming.
48
00:04:24,060 --> 00:04:27,856
I'm not as nimble as I used to be.
49
00:04:31,485 --> 00:04:33,153
Nor as coordinated.
50
00:04:34,654 --> 00:04:38,533
Actually, Conrad,
I have always been rather clumsy.
51
00:04:40,660 --> 00:04:43,580
When you get that stuff cleaned up,
make rne a Scotch, will you, please?
52
00:04:44,790 --> 00:04:47,250
So the war is over,
Mr Under Secretary?
53
00:04:47,417 --> 00:04:50,253
You're practically a national treasure.
54
00:04:50,420 --> 00:04:52,839
Sonofabitch.
55
00:04:53,006 --> 00:04:55,258
Which son of a bitch is that?
56
00:04:55,425 --> 00:04:58,720
Hope they cut his balls off.
57
00:04:58,887 --> 00:05:00,722
Give Harolds a pair of scissors.
58
00:05:00,889 --> 00:05:02,974
When the time's right, l'll do that myself.
59
00:05:04,559 --> 00:05:07,103
Sounds like your private meeting
with Kuong Yen
60
00:05:07,270 --> 00:05:11,191
was what you guys in State call
“a frank discussion of the issues”.
61
00:05:11,358 --> 00:05:14,110
What the hell is this,
some kind of a joke to you?
62
00:05:14,277 --> 00:05:16,196
You could say so.
lt's not to me.
63
00:05:16,363 --> 00:05:18,198
Well, somebody's gotta take it seriously.
64
00:05:18,365 --> 00:05:21,284
I told 'em I didn't need
any goddamn CIA help on this thing...
65
00:05:21,451 --> 00:05:23,119
And they shove me down your throat!
66
00:05:23,286 --> 00:05:24,663
We've been through this
before, Morgan.
67
00:05:24,830 --> 00:05:26,873
Now, what the hell is it this time?
68
00:05:30,085 --> 00:05:32,587
How many of your CIA people
are the VC holding?
69
00:05:32,754 --> 00:05:34,214
I don't know what you're talking about.
70
00:05:34,381 --> 00:05:35,841
Save that bullshit for Congress.
How many?
71
00:05:36,007 --> 00:05:39,678
150, maybe. Why?
They're dead.
72
00:05:39,845 --> 00:05:44,808
I take it the fact that we have positive
information to the contrary is irrelevant.
73
00:05:44,975 --> 00:05:46,935
He wants a sacrifice.
74
00:05:47,978 --> 00:05:49,729
Speak intelligibly, Morgan.
75
00:05:49,896 --> 00:05:52,941
As an addendum to the peace terms,
Kuong Yen wants a sacrifice.
76
00:05:53,108 --> 00:05:54,860
Call Omaha and get a flock of sheep.
77
00:05:55,026 --> 00:05:57,195
He claims he's lost a lot of family
to you people.
78
00:05:57,362 --> 00:06:00,782
I also think - this isn't important, of
course - but I think he's a psychopath.
79
00:06:00,949 --> 00:06:03,118
That makes him unique
in this business, doesn't it?
80
00:06:03,285 --> 00:06:07,289
In any case, we agree to write off
those people as missing in action
81
00:06:07,455 --> 00:06:11,209
and they agree to call off the war
and give us a lot of other people back.
82
00:06:11,376 --> 00:06:13,712
And you agreed?
83
00:06:13,879 --> 00:06:16,631
I didn't agree to anything.
84
00:06:18,383 --> 00:06:20,635
You practical sonofabitch!
85
00:06:20,802 --> 00:06:22,679
You're gonna cash in
those people's lives
86
00:06:22,846 --> 00:06:25,348
just for a shot at the Nobel Peace Prize!
87
00:06:25,515 --> 00:06:27,601
Saunders, don't get
sanctimonious with me.
88
00:06:27,767 --> 00:06:30,145
Nobody's gonna win anything
when this war's over.
89
00:06:30,312 --> 00:06:33,064
If the VC want 'em dead so bad,
why don't they just kill 'em?
90
00:06:33,231 --> 00:06:36,276
They won't because they're worth
too much as a bargaining point.
91
00:06:36,443 --> 00:06:40,864
Wrong. They'll kill 'em just as soon as
they sign the treaty
92
00:06:41,031 --> 00:06:45,452
or they'll hold them as MIA
till they're through interrogating them.
93
00:06:45,619 --> 00:06:47,370
In any case, what l'm trying to say,
Saunders,
94
00:06:47,537 --> 00:06:50,874
is we have to at least try to get
some of those people out of there.
95
00:06:52,667 --> 00:06:55,337
I hate to think l've been
misjudging you, Morgan.
96
00:06:57,756 --> 00:06:59,299
That would be unfortunate.
97
00:06:59,466 --> 00:07:01,343
Now, what do you call
those commando people
98
00:07:01,509 --> 00:07:02,886
you're holding under
the Phoenix umbrella?
99
00:07:03,053 --> 00:07:05,388
Black Tigers.
100
00:07:05,555 --> 00:07:08,725
(SCOFFS) Who the hell thinks up
names like that?
101
00:07:08,892 --> 00:07:10,268
Black Tigers!
102
00:07:10,435 --> 00:07:12,896
Actually, a group of us did,
some years ago.
103
00:07:14,689 --> 00:07:17,275
Don't let anybody kid you, Harolds.
lt's a great name.
104
00:07:17,442 --> 00:07:21,863
Can they get your people out?
I don't know, it's a very risky business.
105
00:07:22,030 --> 00:07:25,158
Take at least a couple of weeks
for an operation like that.
106
00:07:25,325 --> 00:07:26,868
48 hours.
107
00:07:30,789 --> 00:07:33,249
48 hours? Right.
108
00:07:35,251 --> 00:07:39,339
What about staging a major operation
in the middle of your peace talks?
109
00:07:39,506 --> 00:07:41,925
L'll worry about the diplomacy.
110
00:07:46,304 --> 00:07:47,681
Saunders.
111
00:07:47,847 --> 00:07:51,935
I get the feeling l'm offending
some sensibility in you.
112
00:07:52,978 --> 00:07:56,815
The American public is crying for peace.
I intend to achieve it for them.
113
00:07:56,982 --> 00:08:01,319
Like I said, you're practically
a national treasure.
114
00:08:19,838 --> 00:08:21,673
You know, Saunders,
when this war is over,
115
00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:24,134
you should get a job
as an advance man for cancer.
116
00:08:24,300 --> 00:08:27,095
In support of the disease or the cure?
117
00:08:27,262 --> 00:08:29,264
I sometimes find it difficult to understand
118
00:08:29,431 --> 00:08:32,308
the American custom of joking
during a time of crisis.
119
00:08:32,475 --> 00:08:35,311
How certain are you of your intelligence?
120
00:08:35,478 --> 00:08:38,231
To be perfectly honest with you,
Major Mhin,
121
00:08:38,398 --> 00:08:41,443
the only thing certain about intelligence
is uncertainty.
122
00:08:43,445 --> 00:08:45,238
As usual, you're a big help.
123
00:08:45,405 --> 00:08:48,742
This better be as important
as your boys at headquarters said it was.
124
00:08:48,908 --> 00:08:50,493
Let's go, Mhin.
125
00:08:54,205 --> 00:08:56,583
What do you think
Prince is gonna say
126
00:08:56,750 --> 00:08:58,793
when we come
walking in there after him?
127
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,546
“You came a long way, Fred,
to collect your bread.”
128
00:09:01,713 --> 00:09:05,050
That's what he's going to say.
You'd better believe that, baby.
129
00:09:05,216 --> 00:09:08,553
What makes them think Hanoi
will sit still for this kind of stunt?
130
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:11,306
It must make some kind of sense
or they wouldn't be sending us.
131
00:09:11,473 --> 00:09:14,309
One camp. What good could it do?
The POWs are in dozens of camps.
132
00:09:14,476 --> 00:09:17,479
It's the camp with the most guys in it.
lt's the best we can do.
133
00:09:17,645 --> 00:09:19,564
I do not see how a raid at this time
134
00:09:19,731 --> 00:09:21,608
can do anything but harm
the negotiations.
135
00:09:22,650 --> 00:09:24,778
Major, I thought
the goddamn war was over.
136
00:09:24,944 --> 00:09:27,280
So did I, but it's not. What's your point?
137
00:09:27,447 --> 00:09:31,159
The point is, Major, we don't want to be
the last guys killed in this friggin' war

139
00:09:32,869 --> 00:09:35,830
I think they've got us down
for second to last.

Jesus Christ - whatever happened
to the good old days
141
00:09:38,291 --> 00:09:41,711
when Randolph Scott and John Wayne
were happy to have their asses blown off
142

dude who wrote the national anthem!
145
00:09:49,844 --> 00:09:52,013
Oh, that Randolph Scott!
146
00:09:52,180 --> 00:09:54,974
You can joke if you want,
but I've got a score to settle.

That's the spirit, Gordie -
an ear for an ear!
148
00:09:57,644 --> 00:09:59,813
I said not to joke around
about my ears, didn't I?
149
00:09:59,979 --> 00:10:02,690
You're gonna have a hard time
finding an ear that size, Gordie.
150
00:10:02,857 --> 00:10:05,735
Just give me a couple whole heads.
I'll use what I need.
151
00:10:05,902 --> 00:10:09,447
What do you know?
We can go first class!
152
00:10:09,614 --> 00:10:11,366
You gonna serve coffee, Randolph?
Sure!
153
00:10:11,533 --> 00:10:14,035
I want Lola Falana to serve my coffee!
154
00:10:14,202 --> 00:10:15,870
Gonna be a movie on this flight?
Yeah.

00:18:33,367 --> 00:18:36,162
Come on, Gordie.
Come on, pal! We gotta run!
168
00:18:37,204 --> 00:18:38,706
Where we running, Mike?
169
00:18:38,873 --> 00:18:42,084
Are we late for the train or something?
170
00:18:57,350 --> 00:18:58,976
Where the hell are the choppers?
171
00:18:59,143 --> 00:19:02,229
The choppers aren't here.
Why don't we take the train?
172
00:19:03,981 --> 00:19:05,232
Radio.
173
00:19:08,361 --> 00:19:11,155
Nighthawk, this is Tiger 1. Over.
174
00:19:14,116 --> 00:19:16,410
Nighthawk, this is Tiger 1. Over.
175
00:19:20,915 --> 00:19:23,167
Somebody's going to pay
for this screw-up.
176
00:19:23,334 --> 00:19:25,044
I think I knaw whm.
177
00:19:25,211 --> 00:19:27,588
Yeah, us.
178
00:19:29,965 --> 00:19:33,636
Nighthawk, this is Tiger 1. We're at LZ
and waiting for pick-up. Over.
179
00:19:39,016 --> 00:19:40,810
I don't get it.
180
00:19:40,976 --> 00:19:46,440
Everything went wrong by the numbers.
And that takes planning.
181
00:19:50,903 --> 00:19:52,613
What the hell are you talking about?
182
00:19:53,864 --> 00:19:56,242
I'm saying we've been set up.
183
00:20:02,248 --> 00:20:03,833
Where are the choppers?
184
00:20:05,710 --> 00:20:08,254
I just told you, Gordie, it was a screw-up.
185
00:20:08,421 --> 00:20:10,881
I like choppers. They're like birds.
186
00:20:11,048 --> 00:20:14,468
You like birds, don't you?
Sure I do, Gordie. Sure I do.
187
00:20:17,304 --> 00:20:19,181
Where are the choppers?
188
00:20:20,224 --> 00:20:22,810
I like choppers. They're like birds.
189
00:20:22,977 --> 00:20:26,480
I shot a bird once.
My daddy took my rifle away...
190
00:20:28,399 --> 00:20:30,776
Take care of him, Mike.
Yeah.
191
00:20:31,861 --> 00:20:34,029
What do we do now?
Survive.
192
00:20:34,196 --> 00:20:36,073
Lou, the point. Walker, the rear.
193
00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:38,492
Where are you going, Mike?
Going home.
194
00:20:38,659 --> 00:20:41,662
What do we do, walk out?
If you spot a taxi, flag it down.
195
00:20:45,207 --> 00:20:47,501
(GUNSHOTS)
196
00:22:35,693 --> 00:22:38,362
How'd it feel?
A hell of a lot better!
197
00:22:39,738 --> 00:22:41,824
Let's clean her out
and l'll give her another try.
198
00:22:48,247 --> 00:22:50,958
I think our troubles with this baby
are just about history.
199
00:22:51,125 --> 00:22:52,668
You spend one more minute
with this car,
200
00:22:52,835 --> 00:22:55,296
I think that baby down there
is gonna be history.
201
00:22:55,462 --> 00:22:58,465
Damn, can you believe
I forgot all about her?
202
00:22:58,632 --> 00:23:02,303
Any man who forgets something like that
needs a lube job and oil change real bad.
203
00:23:02,469 --> 00:23:04,388
I can't wait to get her on the rack.
204
00:23:08,267 --> 00:23:11,729
Goddamn it, Booker, what's a girl
have to do to get your attention?
205
00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:15,190
I'm sorry, Kelly.
206
00:23:18,569 --> 00:23:20,446
AV, vi, yi.
207
00:23:20,613 --> 00:23:24,867
You're really going to be mad.
l've got a class to teach in one hour.
208
00:23:25,034 --> 00:23:26,577
Bf'
1 i J H h
209
00:23:30,414 --> 00:23:32,917
(STARTS ENGINE)
210
00:23:34,752 --> 00:23:37,171
Come on, Booker, get in.
211
00:23:54,563 --> 00:23:58,150
And so, as history slowly places it
into some kind of perspective,
212
00:23:58,317 --> 00:24:00,402
a few things about the Vietnam War
have become clear.
213
00:24:01,946 --> 00:24:04,281
It was a war
that never should have begun
214
00:24:04,448 --> 00:24:06,241
in a country
we never should have entered.
215
00:24:06,408 --> 00:24:11,205
And its thousands of victims died
without really understanding why,
216
00:24:12,247 --> 00:24:16,085
mainly because the reasons for the war
were beyond any rules of logic.
217
00:24:18,420 --> 00:24:20,297
On Wednesday,
we'll sing patriotic songs
218
00:24:20,464 --> 00:24:21,966
and pretend I said none of the above.
219
00:24:22,132 --> 00:24:23,676
(LAUGHTER)
220
00:24:25,219 --> 00:24:26,762
Good lecture, man.
Thank you.
221
00:24:26,929 --> 00:24:29,014
See you, Booker.
OK.
222
00:24:32,643 --> 00:24:34,186
You're welcome.
223
00:24:41,735 --> 00:24:43,821
I hope you didn't mind my sitting in.
224
00:24:45,197 --> 00:24:47,616
Seems a long ways from the '60s,
doesn't it?
225
00:24:47,783 --> 00:24:49,368
Yes, it does.
226
00:24:49,535 --> 00:24:51,453
Can I take you to lunch?
227
00:24:51,620 --> 00:24:55,457
I don't eat lunch. Who are you?
228
00:24:55,624 --> 00:24:58,252
Let rne take you to dinner and find out.
229
00:24:59,294 --> 00:25:02,006
You do eat dinner?
l've been known to.
230
00:25:05,175 --> 00:25:09,513
L'm on an expense account.
You're a reporter.
231
00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:12,808
Why else would I fly all the way out
from Washington to see you?
232
00:25:12,975 --> 00:25:14,518
I don't know.
233
00:25:16,645 --> 00:25:18,397
Pick rne up at 7:00?
234
00:25:18,564 --> 00:25:20,232
7:00 is too late.
235
00:25:20,399 --> 00:25:22,401
Forus?
236
00:25:22,568 --> 00:25:25,195
For dinner. How about 5:30?
237
00:25:25,362 --> 00:25:28,115
At 5:30 in Washington,
they're still out to lunch.
238
00:25:28,282 --> 00:25:30,325
In Washington,
they're always out to lunch.
239
00:25:30,492 --> 00:25:33,454
Besides, I have a feeling
this might be a very interesting evening.
240
00:25:36,749 --> 00:25:39,251
You're the professor, Professor.
241
00:25:56,185 --> 00:25:59,730
That's it, mister.
That's a good job.
242
00:25:59,897 --> 00:26:03,067
Too bad you weren't born black. There
might have been a future in this for you.
243
00:26:03,233 --> 00:26:06,695
Hey, mister, you forgot your newspaper.
244
00:26:06,862 --> 00:26:08,989
19 and 25.
245
00:26:09,156 --> 00:26:10,866
Thank you, my man.
246
00:27:08,841 --> 00:27:10,926
(TYPES)
247
00:27:24,189 --> 00:27:27,317
(TYPES)
248
00:27:54,344 --> 00:27:55,888
Quite a car.
249
00:27:56,054 --> 00:27:59,349
Not exactly ideal for going
from stoplight to stoplight, is it?
250
00:27:59,516 --> 00:28:01,435
Not unless they're a couple
of hundred miles apart.
251
00:28:01,602 --> 00:28:02,978
Pretty much for a grad student.
252
00:28:03,145 --> 00:28:05,063
I do some test driving,
and like a damn fool,
253
00:28:05,230 --> 00:28:06,899
I took the car instead of the salary.
254
00:28:48,398 --> 00:28:50,067
What the hell is he trying to do?
255
00:28:56,490 --> 00:28:57,532
Hang on!
256
00:29:15,008 --> 00:29:16,927
Alright, you sonofabitch,
what the hell's going on?
257
00:29:17,094 --> 00:29:18,887
Take it easy, man!
The accelerator pedal stuck!
258
00:29:19,054 --> 00:29:21,890
What?
I said, “The accelerator pedal stuck.”
259
00:29:22,057 --> 00:29:23,892
Why didn't you kill the engine?
260
00:29:24,059 --> 00:29:25,978
Because I thought
I could kick the pedal loose.
261
00:29:38,448 --> 00:29:40,575
What the hell was that all about?
262
00:29:40,742 --> 00:29:42,703
I wish I knew.
I think I need a drink.
263
00:29:42,869 --> 00:29:44,329
Any place in particular?
264
00:29:44,496 --> 00:29:47,582
Your place. As long
as you drive carefully.
265
00:29:49,251 --> 00:29:52,337
Are most of your days
usually as exciting as this one?
266
00:29:52,504 --> 00:29:55,882
Not quite, but l've got a feeling
things are about to change.
267
00:29:56,049 --> 00:29:58,010
If you've got something to say, say it.
268
00:29:58,176 --> 00:30:01,054
You were on a top-secret mission
to rescue some POWs
269
00:30:01,221 --> 00:30:03,015
at the end of the war.
270
00:30:05,559 --> 00:30:07,060
No response?
271
00:30:07,227 --> 00:30:10,314
I get it. You're writing
a book about the war.
272
00:30:12,774 --> 00:30:14,318
Something like that.
273
00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:19,448
When you arrived at the camp,
there were no POWs, only Vietcong.
274
00:30:19,614 --> 00:30:21,366
You lost most of your men.
275
00:30:22,951 --> 00:30:26,246
I wonder who told you about that.
It was all top secret.
276
00:30:26,413 --> 00:30:27,956
Shall I go on?
277
00:30:29,750 --> 00:30:31,126
Are you married?
278
00:30:31,293 --> 00:30:32,878
After the raid, you were to be met
279
00:30:33,045 --> 00:30:34,880
and flown to safety by helicopter
with the POWs.
280
00:30:35,047 --> 00:30:36,423
The helicopters didn't show,
281
00:30:36,590 --> 00:30:39,593
so you marched out of the jungle
with five of your men.
282
00:30:43,555 --> 00:30:45,098
Do you fool around?
283
00:30:51,521 --> 00:30:54,399
It took you three weeks
to get out of the jungle.
284
00:30:55,525 --> 00:30:59,154
Then you were, as they say, 'debriefed'
in the hospital for two months.
285
00:30:59,321 --> 00:31:02,532
Nothing was ever printed
about that strange sortie.
286
00:31:02,699 --> 00:31:03,992
Why not?
287
00:31:04,159 --> 00:31:06,620
How about something to eat?
288
00:31:06,787 --> 00:31:10,624
Whatever happened to those POWs
who weren't there to be rescued?
289
00:31:10,791 --> 00:31:13,835
Have they been returned?
Are they MIA?
290
00:31:14,002 --> 00:31:15,545
Are they dead?
291
00:31:15,712 --> 00:31:18,965
Will anybody admit
that they ever existed?
292
00:31:19,132 --> 00:31:21,927
Will you answer any of those questions?
293
00:31:22,094 --> 00:31:24,346
Now, what can you do with one egg?
294
00:31:32,229 --> 00:31:33,897
Watch out.
295
00:31:36,191 --> 00:31:40,487
Nice selection. We can saute these.
296
00:31:40,654 --> 00:31:42,906
I tried it once. I didn't like it.
297
00:31:44,825 --> 00:31:46,827
How about some frozen halibut?
298
00:31:48,995 --> 00:31:51,456
Your unit was a part of
Operation Phoenix.
299
00:31:51,623 --> 00:31:55,460
Its job was to 'neutralise',
I believe they called it,
300
00:31:55,627 --> 00:31:57,671
the Vietcong undercover agents.
301
00:31:57,838 --> 00:32:00,799
You were also assigned
to rescue our own POWs.
302
00:32:00,966 --> 00:32:03,260
You're very intense for a girl with such...
303
00:32:08,682 --> 00:32:13,562
How about one egg
with oysters and sauerkraut?
304
00:32:13,728 --> 00:32:15,188
Mmm!
305
00:32:15,355 --> 00:32:17,607
Are you gonna tell rne anything?
306
00:32:19,025 --> 00:32:21,153
There's really not much to tell.
307
00:32:21,319 --> 00:32:25,407
In the hospital, they told us the VC
intelligence had cracked our security.
308
00:32:25,574 --> 00:32:27,617
Reasonable possibility.
309
00:32:27,784 --> 00:32:29,911
They said our choppers
had been shot down.
310
00:32:30,078 --> 00:32:32,080
Reasonable possibility there.
311
00:32:32,247 --> 00:32:34,541
Then they said by the time
they got replacements to us,
312
00:32:34,708 --> 00:32:36,084
there was nothing but bodies.
313
00:32:36,251 --> 00:32:38,003
That's what they said.
314
00:32:38,170 --> 00:32:40,464
And like an obedient soldier,
you believed them.
315
00:32:40,630 --> 00:32:43,341
In the hospital,
I told myself the war was over.
316
00:32:43,508 --> 00:32:45,719
I lived through it, now put it behind you.
317
00:32:45,886 --> 00:32:48,722
I could spend years trying to find out
if somebody set us up.
318
00:32:49,890 --> 00:32:52,225
And if I found him, well...
319
00:32:52,392 --> 00:32:55,020
...he most likely would be
someone I couldn't get to anyway.
320
00:32:55,187 --> 00:32:58,440
What if he were someone
you could get to?
321
00:32:58,607 --> 00:33:02,986
I decided not to waste my life
to avenge something l'd survived.
322
00:33:03,153 --> 00:33:07,532
It's over and I want to keep it that way.
323
00:33:07,699 --> 00:33:10,118
I don't believe you really feel that way.
324
00:33:11,286 --> 00:33:13,205
Why are you asking all these questions?
325
00:33:13,371 --> 00:33:14,748
I can't tell you.
326
00:33:14,915 --> 00:33:16,374
Then stop asking them.
327
00:33:16,541 --> 00:33:20,420
I met a man at a cocktail party
in Washington.
328
00:33:20,587 --> 00:33:24,382
He was what the newspapers refer to as
“a high-ranking government official”.
329
00:33:24,549 --> 00:33:26,635
He was also very, very drunk.
330
00:33:26,801 --> 00:33:29,679
The Scotch seemed to break
some barrier in his mind.
331
00:33:29,846 --> 00:33:33,850
He mentioned the Black Tigers.
How's the sauerkraut coming?
332
00:33:35,060 --> 00:33:37,062
Corning nicely, thank you.
333
00:33:37,229 --> 00:33:39,272
John T. Booker -
334
00:33:39,439 --> 00:33:43,151
a man taking his PhD
in political science
335
00:33:43,318 --> 00:33:45,987
who used to be a member of the CIA.
336
00:33:46,154 --> 00:33:47,906
Sounds schizophrenic.
337

You wouldn't be talking about
a writer named Margaret, would you?
382

There was no Operation Sandstone.

You see that line with 'D.A.' on it?
393

It means that sometime during
an operation which never happened,

it was confirmed
that you were a double agent.

talked to her about the mission.

has evidently decided to rectify his error.

more about that goddamn raid

that my name is on that hit parade
along with the rest of the Tigers.

by bringing him into this country.

00:49:34,727 --> 00:49:36,896
What did he tell you?
Nothing.
510
00:50:08,844 --> 00:50:10,638
Good evening. You got here just in time.
511
00:50:10,804 --> 00:50:13,307
For what?
The snow is melting fast.
512
00:50:13,474 --> 00:50:15,559
Is Mike Potter in? He's on the ski patrol.
513
00:50:15,726 --> 00:50:18,771
Mike? No. Try his house.
l'll dial it for you.
514
00:50:20,272 --> 00:50:22,191
Do you want to take it over there?
515
00:50:40,501 --> 00:50:41,377
He's not in.
516
00:50:41,544 --> 00:50:43,671
Tomorrow's his day off.
He's jump-crazy.
517
00:50:43,837 --> 00:50:45,923
He'll be on the jump
first thing in the morning.
518
00:50:47,591 --> 00:50:49,301
We better spend the night.
519
00:50:50,386 --> 00:50:52,346
Do you have a room?
Yeah, I think so.
520
00:50:52,513 --> 00:50:54,473
Do you want to fill this out?
521
00:51:05,818 --> 00:51:08,028
To what extent
are we speaking to each other?
522
00:51:08,195 --> 00:51:10,906
What do you want to talk about?
523
00:51:11,073 --> 00:51:13,742
Well, I was wondering, for instance,
if we're speaking enough
524
00:51:13,909 --> 00:51:15,995
to share the only bed in the room.
525
00:51:16,161 --> 00:51:18,831
Sure, we can share the bed.
526
00:51:36,599 --> 00:51:38,726
Any enemies out there?
527
00:51:38,892 --> 00:51:41,061
I'm just as worried
about the enemy within.
528
00:51:42,521 --> 00:51:45,149
Are you an enemy, Margaret?
No.
529
00:51:45,316 --> 00:51:48,027
You just happened to be there
when Gordie was killed today.
530
00:51:48,193 --> 00:51:50,404
Were you there when
Lou and Holly got it too?
531
00:51:50,571 --> 00:51:52,114
N0.
532
00:51:54,533 --> 00:51:57,328
Are you some kind of finger-man
for whoever's doing this?
533
00:52:04,543 --> 00:52:06,337
Finger-person.
534
00:52:12,343 --> 00:52:14,553
John, I haven't lied to you.
535
00:52:14,720 --> 00:52:16,513
Including last night?
536
00:52:16,680 --> 00:52:19,433
Especially last night.
537
00:52:20,643 --> 00:52:22,978
You fit in somewhere.
538
00:52:29,860 --> 00:52:31,403
So do you.
539
00:52:33,322 --> 00:52:35,658
Mr Morgan, I want to thank you
for the cooperation
540
00:52:35,824 --> 00:52:38,535
youfire affordtng this committee
by your appearance here today.
541
00:52:38,702 --> 00:52:40,454
Thank you, Senator.
542
00:52:40,621 --> 00:52:43,415
Andi want to assure you
and the other members of the committee
543
00:52:43,582 --> 00:52:47,211
that I fully understand the necessity
for hearings such as these.
544
00:52:47,378 --> 00:52:51,090
And l want you all to feel free
to probe into any areas at all
545
00:52:51,256 --> 00:52:52,966
that might be of interest to you.
546
00:52:53,133 --> 00:52:55,469
Wm sure I can speak
for the entire committee
547
00:52:55,636 --> 00:52:59,348
when I say, sir, that such an attitude
is deeply appreciated.
548
00:52:59,515 --> 00:53:00,933
Because we've had to deaf with...
549
00:53:01,100 --> 00:53:03,060
Think he'll make it?
Morgan?
550
00:53:03,227 --> 00:53:05,187
Yeah.
Oh, yes.
551
00:53:05,354 --> 00:53:07,648
He's the new darling of Washington.
552
00:53:07,815 --> 00:53:09,566
SENATOR: Fm sure you have.
553
00:53:09,733 --> 00:53:13,237
The attitude of the nation today
is far different from what it was
554
00:53:13,404 --> 00:53:14,905
in those ear1y days before Vietnam.
555
00:53:15,072 --> 00:53:18,617
I think the American public today
is far less eager...
556
00:53:18,784 --> 00:53:20,327
We'd better get going.
557
00:53:22,496 --> 00:53:24,039
(SWITCHES TV OFF)

MAN ON P.A.: Good morning,
iadies and gentiemen,
559
00:53:58,490 --> 00:54:00,033
and welcome to Squaw Valley, USA.
560
00:54:00,200 --> 00:54:04,037
After being seiected as the site
of the 1960 VI/inter Ofymptc Games,
561
00:54:04,204 --> 00:54:06,373
the entire Squaw Valley complex
562
00:54:06,540 --> 00:54:08,792
was developed into one of
the worlds greatest skt areas
563
00:54:08,959 --> 00:54:11,462
at a cost of over $25 million.
564
00:54:11,628 --> 00:54:14,256
We are now standing
m the lower terminal
565
00:54:14,423 --> 00:54:17,426
of one of the worlds most spectacular
aerial tramways.
566
00:54:17,593 --> 00:54:22,347
The terminal alone cost
over 3. 5 mflfion 1960 dollars.

(FADES)
568
00:55:23,534 --> 00:55:26,161
What snow we had this year
is now melting rapiidfy.
569
00:55:26,328 --> 00:55:28,163
So as we approach the top station,
570
00:55:28,330 --> 00:55:30,707
we advise you to
hurry out to the slopes
571
00:55:30,874 --> 00:55:32,292
and make the most of whafs left.
572
00:55:32,459 --> 00:55:34,503
On behalf of Squaw Valley, USA,
573
00:55:34,670 --> 00:55:37,840
Pd like to thank you forjoining us,
and have a happy day.
574
00:56:30,183 --> 00:56:31,560
I'm looking for Mike Potter.
575
00:56:31,727 --> 00:56:34,271
You got him.
576
00:56:35,689 --> 00:56:37,566
Major?
577
00:56:38,609 --> 00:56:41,194
What the hell are you doing up here?
Didn't you get my message?
578
00:56:41,361 --> 00:56:43,864
You mean the Code Red?
I thought that was a gag.
579
00:56:44,031 --> 00:56:45,991
Alright, Mike, you're up.
580
00:56:46,158 --> 00:56:47,910
Let's go in the shack.
We've gotta talk.
581
00:56:50,370 --> 00:56:53,332
Meet rne at the bottom.
Bring these with you.
582
00:56:53,498 --> 00:56:55,667
Mike, wait.
583
00:56:55,834 --> 00:56:56,877
Mike!

(MOTORCYCLE ENGINE REVS)

Jesus Christ, I thought
l'd never find you.
588
01:00:07,192 --> 01:00:09,611
There were cops
all over the place up there.
589
01:00:09,778 --> 01:00:12,072
L've got your clothes.
You can change in the car.
590
01:00:12,239 --> 01:00:14,866
Are you alright?
591
01:00:16,326 --> 01:00:19,663
It was Mhin, wasn't it?
The woman he met at the airport.
592
01:00:21,039 --> 01:00:22,624
L'm sorry about Mike.
593
01:00:22,791 --> 01:00:25,085
Yeah, but there you were,
right on the scene again.
594
01:00:25,252 --> 01:00:28,505
L'm not the enemy, John.
I told you that last night.
595
01:00:30,173 --> 01:00:32,968
I think we better talk.
Tell me!
596
01:00:39,099 --> 01:00:40,684
Edgar Harolds.
597
01:00:40,851 --> 01:00:45,105
Childhood sweetheart?
A drunk at a cocktail party.
598
01:00:45,272 --> 01:00:47,399
Who is he?
Under Secretary of State.
599
01:00:47,566 --> 01:00:50,777
A career man at the end of his career,
maybe the end of his rope.
600
01:00:50,944 --> 01:00:52,863
Goddamn it, who are you?
601
01:00:53,029 --> 01:00:56,366
Edgar Harolds worked for
Conrad Morgan during the Vietnam War
602
01:00:56,533 --> 01:00:58,285
and he hates his guts.
603
01:00:58,451 --> 01:01:00,453
Morgan on the TV?
604
01:01:00,620 --> 01:01:02,581
The Senate does more
than question a man
605
01:01:02,747 --> 01:01:04,166
who's nominated for Secretary of State.
606
01:01:04,332 --> 01:01:07,377
Before Watergate,
it was generally a formality.
607
01:01:07,544 --> 01:01:12,549
Now, they do a pretty thorough job of it.
They even hire attorneys to investigate.
608
01:01:12,716 --> 01:01:16,386
What does that have to do with you?
lt's actually pretty funny.
609
01:01:16,553 --> 01:01:20,432
I was invited to a cocktail party
by the head of the committee.
610
01:01:20,599 --> 01:01:23,560
Just a social event.
I had barely started to work for him.
611
01:01:23,727 --> 01:01:26,563
You're a lawyer? An investigator?
612
01:01:26,730 --> 01:01:28,106
L'd been standing for hours
613
01:01:28,273 --> 01:01:31,234
when I noticed this man
sitting all alone at a table.
614
01:01:31,401 --> 01:01:33,820
He looked pleasantly drunk
and harmless.
615
01:01:33,987 --> 01:01:35,697
I went over and sat with him.
616
01:01:35,864 --> 01:01:38,074
Is Morgan mixed up in this?
I don't know.
617
01:01:38,241 --> 01:01:41,036
Harolds never mentioned his name,
but it seems to me there's a connection.
618
01:01:41,203 --> 01:01:43,121
The papers keep saying
that his approval is assured.
619
01:01:43,288 --> 01:01:45,040
How can that be
if you told the committee...
620
01:01:45,207 --> 01:01:47,167
I never told the committee anything!
621
01:01:47,334 --> 01:01:49,169
You don't survive in Washington
622
01:01:49,336 --> 01:01:52,130
by attacking men like Morgan
without substantial facts.
623
01:01:52,297 --> 01:01:55,634
I simply said I wanted to follow up
on some leads and they said, “Go.”
624
01:01:55,800 --> 01:01:57,177
So the committee
knows nothing about this?
625
01:01:57,344 --> 01:01:59,471
Not yet. That's why we're
taking the first plane east.
626
01:02:00,764 --> 01:02:03,391
That could take days.
I have to get to Joe Walker in Mexico.
627
01:02:03,558 --> 01:02:05,769
He's the only man left.
You're left.

01:09:08,566 --> 01:09:11,277
I think our next stop is Washington.
680
01:09:11,444 --> 01:09:12,820
Are you sure you've
got Walker covered?
681
01:09:12,987 --> 01:09:17,408
I still can't figure out why they
suddenly decide to kill us all off.
682
01:09:17,575 --> 01:09:21,037
Maybe Morgan found out
that Harolds was about to crack.
683
01:09:21,204 --> 01:09:23,039
Why didn't he arrange
an accident for Harolds?
684
01:09:23,206 --> 01:09:25,708
Five'll get you ten
there's a damn good reason he didn't.
685
01:09:25,875 --> 01:09:27,877
Let's go ask him.
686
01:09:41,224 --> 01:09:42,642
Morning.
687
01:09:42,809 --> 01:09:44,686
May I help you, gentlemen?
688
01:09:44,852 --> 01:09:46,521
Yes, Mr Harolds' apartment, please.
689
01:09:46,688 --> 01:09:50,108
May I have your name?
We want to surprise him.
690
01:09:50,274 --> 01:09:52,819
L'm afraid we're not allowed
to surprise our tenants.
691
01:09:54,779 --> 01:09:56,906
Even if you were
J. Edgar Hoover himself,
692
01:09:57,073 --> 01:09:58,866
I oouldn't allow you upstairs.
693
01:09:59,033 --> 01:10:01,911
It's not likely he could be Mr Hoover
if he wanted to.
694
01:10:02,078 --> 01:10:05,456
Not only is he the wrong colour,
but Mr Hoover is dead.
695
01:10:05,623 --> 01:10:07,834
L'm sure you get my meaning.
696
01:10:08,000 --> 01:10:09,502
Oh, yes, we do.
697
01:10:09,669 --> 01:10:11,754
We want to make sure
you get what we mean.
698
01:10:11,921 --> 01:10:14,882
You see, my friend here is very cranky.
699
01:10:15,049 --> 01:10:18,136
In fact, l'd say he's
on the very edge of anger.
700
01:10:19,178 --> 01:10:23,057
And in about five seconds,
l'm gonna ask him to kick your teeth in
701
01:10:23,224 --> 01:10:26,561
if you don't show us the way
to Mr Harolds' apartment.
702
01:10:31,232 --> 01:10:33,651
Very well. Follow me.
703
01:10:35,862 --> 01:10:37,697
(WHISPERS) He must have good teeth.
704
01:10:46,122 --> 01:10:47,498
Remember what happened
705
01:10:47,665 --> 01:10:51,085
the last time a Washington apartment
was broken into for political reasons.
706
01:10:51,252 --> 01:10:54,172
No, think about it.
It altered the course of history.
707
01:10:54,338 --> 01:10:56,507
My friend here is gonna alter
the course of your nose
708
01:10:56,674 --> 01:10:58,468
if you don't show us
where the apartment is.
709
01:10:58,634 --> 01:11:00,636
Of course, if you put it
in that perspective...
710
01:11:00,803 --> 01:11:02,388
Now!
Now.
711
01:11:06,642 --> 01:11:08,102
There it is.
712
01:11:08,269 --> 01:11:12,523
Should we ring the buzzer or kick it in?
No, l'll ring the bell.
713
01:11:12,690 --> 01:11:15,359

Mgfim: Yes'?
715
01:11:20,490 --> 01:11:23,659
(WHISPERS) Tell him it's you.
lt's me, Mr Harolds.
716
01:11:23,826 --> 01:11:27,705
Who?
Louder. Be more specific.
717
01:11:27,872 --> 01:11:31,459
Albert. Albert, the doorman.
718
01:11:31,626 --> 01:11:33,836
What do you want'?
719
01:11:34,003 --> 01:11:37,507
Package.
l've got a package.
720
01:11:47,099 --> 01:11:51,604
It's alright, Albert.
Thank you. You've been quite civilised.
721
01:11:55,233 --> 01:11:56,859
Good morning, Mr Harolds.
722
01:11:57,026 --> 01:12:00,279
“My vengeance is swift, saith the Lord.”
723
01:12:00,446 --> 01:12:04,575
I expected it to be swift and very violent.
724
01:12:05,785 --> 01:12:07,662
I haven't been disappointed.
725
01:12:07,829 --> 01:12:12,708
Since the day you walked
out of that hotel room in Paris,
726
01:12:12,875 --> 01:12:15,419
I've been wondering
if I might not see you again.
727
01:12:16,504 --> 01:12:21,509
The fact that you are here now
is testimony to your powers of survival.
728
01:12:21,676 --> 01:12:23,886
Well, the test is not over yet.
729
01:12:24,053 --> 01:12:26,389
L'd like you to meet John Booker.
730
01:12:26,556 --> 01:12:30,351
Oh, Major Booker,
the shepherd of the betrayed flock.
731
01:12:30,518 --> 01:12:32,144
That's what we're here
to talk about.
732
01:12:32,311 --> 01:12:37,191
Well, normally, I'd do what I've done
all the years I've served my country
733
01:12:37,358 --> 01:12:39,944
and feed you a line of shit.
734
01:12:41,737 --> 01:12:43,489
But I wflmnfit think PM bather.
735
01:12:43,656 --> 01:12:46,325
Perhaps you're doing me a favour.
736
01:12:48,828 --> 01:12:51,581
No, Major, there's no-one else here.
737
01:12:52,832 --> 01:12:55,418
My wife and children
had the good sense
738
01:12:55,585 --> 01:12:58,129
to go on about their own lives years ago.
739
01:12:59,213 --> 01:13:00,715
Do you have a family, Major?
740
01:13:00,882 --> 01:13:03,217
I had plans, but they didn't work out.
741
01:13:03,384 --> 01:13:08,472
Well, then perhaps you're fortunate.
742
01:13:12,518 --> 01:13:16,731
So this is what I get
for having too much to drink
743
01:13:16,898 --> 01:13:19,901
and finding a receptive ear.
744
01:13:21,193 --> 01:13:25,156
Can you imagine a career diplomat
getting drunk and babbling
745
01:13:25,323 --> 01:13:27,408
at a Washington cocktail party'?
746
01:13:27,575 --> 01:13:32,705
You don't get to be an old-timer here
without learning not to do that,
747
01:13:32,872 --> 01:13:35,625
unless you're over the hill.
748
01:13:37,668 --> 01:13:40,922
An interesting phrase, 'over the hill'.
749
01:13:41,088 --> 01:13:46,302
Conrad has been telling me for years
that's where I am.
750
01:13:46,469 --> 01:13:49,221
He's a brilliant man, Conrad.
751
01:13:49,388 --> 01:13:53,517
Most of us think we know
what we want out of life.
752
01:13:53,684 --> 01:13:58,814
But Conrad is one of those few
who knows how to get it.
753
01:13:58,981 --> 01:14:03,569
Of course, he learned immediately
of my drunken indiscretion.
754
01:14:03,736 --> 01:14:09,367
The captured indiscreet remark
is a source of power in Washington,
755
01:14:09,533 --> 01:14:12,286
a flessmw Canrad Rearmed weflfl.
756
01:14:13,746 --> 01:14:17,375
I may have been the one
who first taught him that.
757
01:14:17,541 --> 01:14:20,252
Perhaps I am over the hill.
758
01:14:21,712 --> 01:14:25,967
And she is a brilliant young woman,
quite lovely.
759
01:14:27,051 --> 01:14:31,931
There was something about her.
l...l just wanted to talk to her.
760
01:14:32,098 --> 01:14:35,643
But, of course,
you must know that by now, Major.
761
01:14:36,686 --> 01:14:40,147
Your being the leader
of the Black Tigers,
762
01:14:40,314 --> 01:14:43,776
I assume she must have
gone directly to you.
763
01:14:43,943 --> 01:14:46,195
Of course, Morgan assumed
the same thing.
764
01:14:46,362 --> 01:14:50,658
His efforts to find out
just how much you knew
765
01:14:50,825 --> 01:14:54,662
and whom you might have told
have probably kept you alive.
766
01:14:54,829 --> 01:14:56,789
Four of the men
who came back with me
767
01:14:56,956 --> 01:14:58,499
weren't as lucky.
768
01:15:00,584 --> 01:15:03,754
My condolences, of course,
will seem meaningless.
769
01:15:05,256 --> 01:15:08,217
I was there in the beginning
770
01:15:08,384 --> 01:15:11,721
when they invented
the Phoenix Operation.
771
01:15:11,887 --> 01:15:15,850
Do you know what everyone
was most upset about?
772
01:15:16,017 --> 01:15:21,230
Oh, not the idea that we were
consciously structuring a group of men
773
01:15:21,397 --> 01:15:25,067
whose purpose was
the clandestine murder of other men.
774
01:15:25,234 --> 01:15:30,865
Not the moral ramifications
that might befall us in another life
775
01:15:31,032 --> 01:15:35,286
for the decision
based on political expediency.
776
01:15:35,453 --> 01:15:36,829
Oh, no.
777
01:15:36,996 --> 01:15:41,042
What we got most embroiled in
was an argument over
778
01:15:41,208 --> 01:15:46,922
what a particular group of assassins -
that we decided to call the Black Tigers -
779
01:15:47,089 --> 01:15:50,051
what that group of assassins would wear
780
01:15:50,217 --> 01:15:55,014
when they went out to relieve
selected individuals of their very lives.
781
01:15:56,057 --> 01:15:59,977
Finally, after a great deal
of bitter argument,
782
01:16:00,144 --> 01:16:05,149
we determined to dress
the Black Tigers in all black.
783
01:16:05,316 --> 01:16:10,237
The commission was then paid to a
noted designer, who shall be nameless,
784
01:16:10,404 --> 01:16:15,910
who designed the black clothing
the Black Tigers wore as they rolled out
785
01:16:16,077 --> 01:16:18,037
on their holy crusades.
786
01:16:18,204 --> 01:16:20,831
You made quite a reputation
for yourselves.
787
01:16:23,793 --> 01:16:27,254
Mr Morgan? Mr Harolds
has some visitors.
788
01:16:28,506 --> 01:16:30,091
No, sir, l'm not sure,
789
01:16:30,257 --> 01:16:33,427
but I think one of them is Murray
Saunders from the Los Angeles office.
790
01:16:35,221 --> 01:16:36,764
You want them stopped?
791
01:16:37,973 --> 01:16:40,309
Right, and a man on Harolds.
You've got it.
792
01:16:44,730 --> 01:16:46,107
We were set up.
793
01:16:46,273 --> 01:16:48,025
Oh, yes.
794
01:16:48,192 --> 01:16:49,902
What was the deal?
795
01:16:50,069 --> 01:16:55,366
When I was a younger man, I knew
I was going to be Secretary of State
796
01:16:55,533 --> 01:16:57,368
or perhaps even President.
797
01:16:57,535 --> 01:17:00,496
If I tell you the answer to that question,
798
01:17:00,663 --> 01:17:06,669
I may not even be afforded
the opportunity to retire next year
799
01:17:06,836 --> 01:17:09,922
with a modicum of dignity left to me.
800
01:17:14,176 --> 01:17:19,932
But then, I suppose your life
is not nearly so inconsequential to you
801
01:17:20,099 --> 01:17:24,186
as it is to Mr Morgan, or even to me.
802
01:17:28,399 --> 01:17:29,942
Well...
803
01:17:30,985 --> 01:17:34,905
I hope this letter's the answer.
lt's the best shot we've got.
804
01:18:01,724 --> 01:18:04,101
OK, Saunders. I want that letter.
805
01:18:14,612 --> 01:18:15,988
Listen, Al.
806
01:18:16,155 --> 01:18:19,575
Somebody got into that computer
and this letter proves it.
807
01:18:19,742 --> 01:18:21,368
The letter, Murray.

01:18:24,330 --> 01:18:26,165

Get the letter. l'll cover you.

Why would this guy live
halfway to Baltimore?
813
01:20:11,395 --> 01:20:14,398
Who knows? Maybe it has
something to do with Spiro Agnew.
814
01:20:14,565 --> 01:20:18,027
It wasn't very hard
to get an appointment with the big man.
815
01:20:18,193 --> 01:20:21,280

in what he thinks we might have to sell.

Secret deals are
the heart of diplomacy, Mr Booker.
833
01:21:21,590 --> 01:21:24,343
This deal called for
the murder of the Black Tigers.

01:21:57,418 --> 01:22:01,463
I couldn't figure out what Major Mhin
was doing popping in and out of my life.
848
01:22:01,630 --> 01:22:04,341
At first, I assumed he worked for them,
whoever 'they' were.
849
01:22:04,508 --> 01:22:09,555
But of course, 'they' are you,
and you are all one.
850
01:22:09,721 --> 01:22:13,809
Oh, I see. “We have met the enemy
and they is us."
851
01:22:13,976 --> 01:22:15,978
Comic-strip philosophy, Mr Booker.
852
01:22:16,145 --> 01:22:18,730
Agreed, and now Kuong Yen
is manipulating you
853
01:22:18,897 --> 01:22:21,191
like the comic-strip diplomat you are.
854
01:22:21,358 --> 01:22:24,945
He waited patiently until the moment
of your greatest vulnerability,
855
01:22:25,112 --> 01:22:28,407
the eve of your confirmation
as Secretary of State.
856
01:22:28,574 --> 01:22:32,870
And now he's blackmailing you into
completing the deal you never finished...
857
01:22:34,538 --> 01:22:36,874
...the extermination of the Black Tigers.
858
01:22:37,040 --> 01:22:40,586
Well, they are very unforgiving people.
859
01:22:40,752 --> 01:22:42,379
Toward you or the Black Tigers?
860
01:22:42,546 --> 01:22:46,800
Toward us, Mr. Booker. 'We' is us.
Perhaps.
861
01:22:58,145 --> 01:22:59,771
Interesting document.
862
01:23:05,277 --> 01:23:07,946
Morgan, you're gonna pick up that
phone and call the White House.
863
01:23:08,113 --> 01:23:10,908
Sudden personal problems
are going to prevent you
864
01:23:11,074 --> 01:23:13,911
from accepting the nomination
as Secretary of State.
865
01:23:15,287 --> 01:23:20,667
If you don't, the news media is gonna
have one hell of a time with that letter.
866
01:23:20,834 --> 01:23:24,880
I understand, Major Booker,
that you were quite a jungle fighter.
867
01:23:25,047 --> 01:23:27,841
This is my kind ofjungle, Major.
868
01:23:29,927 --> 01:23:33,180
No. No, I...
869
01:23:33,347 --> 01:23:36,808
I just don't think it would be expedient
for rne to resign at this time.
870
01:23:36,975 --> 01:23:38,352
Expedient?!
871
01:23:38,519 --> 01:23:41,855
Just like it was expedient
to send us on that POW raid?
872
01:23:42,022 --> 01:23:45,317
Expedienoe built this country,
Major Booker.
873
01:23:45,484 --> 01:23:48,737
It was expedient for
this great democracy
874
01:23:48,904 --> 01:23:51,615
to have legal slavery
for half its existence.
875
01:23:51,782 --> 01:23:55,911
And it was expedient to keep the vote
from women for 150 years.
876
01:23:56,078 --> 01:24:00,165
Expedient to declare war on Spain
and Mexico and to invade Cambodia.
877
01:24:00,332 --> 01:24:05,295
From the halls of Montezuma,
Major Booker, to the shores of Tripoli.
878
01:24:05,462 --> 01:24:08,507
And it was expedient, goddamn it,
to get rid of the Black Tigers.
879
01:24:09,633 --> 01:24:11,927
The end still justifies the means.
880
01:24:12,094 --> 01:24:14,012
I don't buy that.
881
01:24:14,179 --> 01:24:17,224
It occurs to me that most of those
who follow your logic
882
01:24:17,391 --> 01:24:19,851
end up in places like
Elba and San Clemente.
883
01:24:20,018 --> 01:24:23,146
(CHUCKLES) Come, now...
Check your history, Morgan.
884
01:24:23,313 --> 01:24:26,650
Most of our expedient wars
ended up in failure.
885
01:24:26,817 --> 01:24:29,820
Our successes didn't just happen
because they were expedient.
886
01:24:29,987 --> 01:24:32,823
Those Americans you spoke of
gave up their lives willingly.
887
01:24:32,990 --> 01:24:34,825
Does that really make
such a difference?
888
01:24:34,992 --> 01:24:38,287
It makes all the goddamn difference,
Morgan.
889
01:24:38,453 --> 01:24:43,333
People like you never could see that
and maybe they never will.
890
01:24:45,294 --> 01:24:48,547
It's not that you don't deserve
to be Secretary of State.
891
01:24:48,714 --> 01:24:51,842
You don't deserve to live.
892
01:24:52,009 --> 01:24:56,096
Well, now, that's
an interesting philosophy, but...
893
01:24:56,263 --> 01:25:00,392
But philosophy is bullshit, right, Morgan?
894
01:25:02,019 --> 01:25:04,104
Well, that letter isn't.
895
01:25:05,731 --> 01:25:07,232
I tell you what.
896
01:25:07,399 --> 01:25:11,820
You take this letter over to the
'Washington Post' with my best regards.
897
01:25:11,987 --> 01:25:14,906
But you tell them they're gonna have
a hard time verifying that with Harolds
898
01:25:15,073 --> 01:25:19,786
because visitors are not allowed in
the Bethesda Hospital psychiatric ward.
899
01:25:24,249 --> 01:25:26,251
Yes, it was a shame. A shame.
900
01:25:26,418 --> 01:25:29,379
They found him crawling on the floor
901
01:25:29,546 --> 01:25:32,215
and howling like a banshee.
902
01:25:32,382 --> 01:25:36,970
Took four men just to put him
into the straitjacket.
903
01:25:37,137 --> 01:25:42,225
Nervous disorder, they called it,
but actually, he's quite mad.
904
01:25:42,392 --> 01:25:47,814
Hello? l'd like to check on the condition
ofa Mr. Harolds, Edgar J.
905
01:25:53,945 --> 01:25:55,822
Thank you.
906
01:26:01,662 --> 01:26:07,042
A letter written by a madman is hardly
what they call prime evidence,
907
01:26:07,209 --> 01:26:08,752
is it, Mr Booker?
908
01:26:09,920 --> 01:26:12,923
Well, as I told you, gentlemen,
I have rather a busy day ahead of rne,
909
01:26:13,090 --> 01:26:16,551
so if you'll excuse me,
l'm sure you can find your own way out.
910
01:26:21,848 --> 01:26:23,809
Oh, by the way, Mr Booker.
911
01:26:23,975 --> 01:26:28,480
Tragic news about your lady friend.
Margaret, was it?
912
01:26:28,647 --> 01:26:32,567
All that information she had
must have been irreplaceable.
913
01:26:32,734 --> 01:26:34,111
Tragic.
914
01:26:34,277 --> 01:26:36,029
You bastard!
915
01:27:02,431 --> 01:27:03,974
Wait a minute.
916
01:27:13,817 --> 01:27:16,611
Accelerator pedal working alright today?
917
01:27:23,243 --> 01:27:25,287
Work for Morgan?
918
01:27:25,454 --> 01:27:27,706
D0 you?
919
01:27:46,933 --> 01:27:48,852
We're running a little late, Franklin.
920
01:28:00,906 --> 01:28:03,116
MAN ON TV: Secretary of State Morgan
m?! become
921
01:28:03,283 --> 01:28:06,453
one of the youngest men
ever to achieve this mgh office.
922
01:28:06,620 --> 01:28:10,207
He 's described as one of the new breed
of diplomats for the 70s.
923
01:28:10,373 --> 01:28:13,210
Although stiff in his early 40s,
924
01:28:13,376 --> 01:28:16,254
Morgan has had
a long and distmguished career
925
01:28:16,421 --> 01:28:18,882
as one of Americab leading diplomats.
926
01:28:19,049 --> 01:28:21,176
His skill at top-level negotiations
927
01:28:21,343 --> 01:28:23,762
has made him one of the few
State Department leaders to...
928
01:28:23,929 --> 01:28:24,971
(SWITCHES TV OFF)
929
01:28:50,831 --> 01:28:52,624
Franklin, where are we going?
930
01:28:52,791 --> 01:28:55,836
Franklin, I said, “Where are we going?”
931
01:28:58,755 --> 01:29:00,799
What the hell is this?
932
01:29:00,966 --> 01:29:04,052
Good morning, Mr Secretary.
933
01:29:04,219 --> 01:29:06,137
Booker
934
01:29:06,304 --> 01:29:09,015
Just what in the hell
do you think you're doing?
935
01:29:09,182 --> 01:29:11,726
You said I was a good jungle fighter.
936
01:29:11,893 --> 01:29:13,436
Well, l'm also a fast learner.
937
01:29:30,287 --> 01:29:32,706
Alright, now, you stop this oar, you fool.
938
01:29:32,873 --> 01:29:36,209
Relax, Morgan, we're just going to talk.
939
01:29:38,628 --> 01:29:41,631
Alright, go ahead. Talk!
940
01:29:41,798 --> 01:29:44,843
What you said about expedience
made a hell of a lot of sense.
941
01:29:45,010 --> 01:29:50,181
I see there's only one way to deal
with people like you - expediently.
942
01:29:50,348 --> 01:29:54,811
You won all the battles, Morgan,
but you're gonna lose this war.
943
01:29:54,978 --> 01:29:56,813
How would you like to be an MIA?
944
01:29:56,980 --> 01:29:58,481
What are you talking about?
945
01:29:58,648 --> 01:30:02,527
When it comes time for your swearing-in
today, you're not gonna be there.
946
01:30:02,694 --> 01:30:04,195
(LAUGHS)
947
01:30:04,362 --> 01:30:06,114
l'll be there.
Uh-uh.
948
01:30:06,281 --> 01:30:07,657
You're dreaming, Booker.
949
01:30:07,824 --> 01:30:09,659
Am I?
950
01:30:18,335 --> 01:30:21,296
Booker, they're going to
come looking for me.
951
01:30:21,463 --> 01:30:27,010
You can't just disappear a Secretary
of State without arousing someone's ire.
952
01:30:27,177 --> 01:30:28,428
Let 'em look.
953
01:30:28,595 --> 01:30:31,973
Alright, Booker.
Tell me, what's your plan, huh?
954
01:30:32,140 --> 01:30:33,975
If you get away with this, Morgan,
955
01:30:34,142 --> 01:30:36,728
it'll betray every guy that ever died
in any war we ever had.
956
01:30:36,895 --> 01:30:41,358
And God knows how many more people
you'll kill in the future.
957
01:30:41,524 --> 01:30:44,611
I'm not gonna let it happen.
958
01:30:44,778 --> 01:30:47,906
You're insane. It won't work.
959
01:30:48,073 --> 01:30:49,491
You can bet your ass it will.
960
01:30:49,658 --> 01:30:52,243
Crazy, goddamn idiot!
961
01:30:52,410 --> 01:30:54,955
You stop this car! You hear me?
962
01:30:55,121 --> 01:30:58,291
Stop this car or l'll...l'll kill you!
963
01:30:58,458 --> 01:31:00,126
You're panicking, Morgan.
964
01:31:00,293 --> 01:31:01,920
Stop the goddamn car!
965
01:32:22,876 --> 01:32:25,170
MAN ON RADIO: The Greenpeace
Foundation in San Francisco
966
01:32:25,336 --> 01:32:27,714
says the Russifans
are using 250-pound explosive...
967
01:32:27,881 --> 01:32:29,257
Are you OK?
968
01:32:29,424 --> 01:32:31,217
“Whaich are agamst QTIGFHGfiOHGI treaties.
969
01:32:31,384 --> 01:32:33,386
In Washington, meantime,
970
01:32:33,553 --> 01:32:35,388
the State Department
has an even bigger headache.
971
01:32:35,555 --> 01:32:37,390
Who wiii be its new boss?
972
01:32:37,557 --> 01:32:39,726
Conrad Morgan, who was due
to be sworn 5n this mommy,
973
01:32:39,893 --> 01:32:41,728
suddenly asked the Prestdent
to withdraw his name.
974
01:32:41,895 --> 01:32:43,772
Come on. l'll give you a lift.
975
01:32:43,938 --> 01:32:45,815
Morgan himself has been
UHGVGflGDIG for comment.
976
01:32:45,982 --> 01:32:47,734
He §s said to be keeping a low profile
977
01:32:47,901 --> 01:32:49,819
in a secret hideaway
on Chesapeake Bay.
978
01:32:49,986 --> 01:32:51,362
There you go.
979
01:32:51,529 --> 01:32:52,906
Aiso unavaiiabie
for comment this mommy
980
01:32:53,073 --> 01:32:55,575
is Morgan 's long-time deputy,
Edgar Harolds.
981
01:32:55,742 --> 01:32:59,162
It is speculated that Harofds
mtght now be nominated for the job,
982
01:32:59,329 --> 01:33:01,998
but he ts reportedly
in the Bethesda Naval Hospital
983
01:33:02,165 --> 01:33:04,667
undergoing
his annual physical examination.
984
01:33:04,834 --> 01:33:07,462
Morgan 's withdrawal
came as a shock to most...
985
01:33:07,629 --> 01:33:09,798
BOOKER: I see you've had
a busy morning too.
986
01:33:09,964 --> 01:33:13,093
MURRAY: Yeah,
it was nothing like yours.
