Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:34,647 --> 00:00:36,192
Yeah.
2
00:00:36,695 --> 00:00:40,535
Please, tell President Lassiter
I'll call him back. I'm late as it is.
3
00:00:40,707 --> 00:00:43,001
I know he called before.
4
00:00:43,340 --> 00:00:44,672
Yeah.
5
00:00:50,780 --> 00:00:52,860
Mr. President,
you forgot Kevin Barkovsky.
6
00:00:53,037 --> 00:00:55,200
-I'm sure I did.
-He's been waiting.
7
00:00:55,377 --> 00:00:58,219
-Who is he?
-Candidate to paint your official portrait.
8
00:00:58,387 --> 00:01:01,228
It's a put-up job, Charlie, a conspiracy.
9
00:01:01,396 --> 00:01:04,938
Official presidential portraits aren't
official. It's Abbey who wants it.
10
00:01:05,116 --> 00:01:08,039
-Send Mr. Barkovsky on his way.
-Every president has one.
11
00:01:08,209 --> 00:01:11,419
I'm not sitting for any portrait
unless you dig up Gilbert Stuart.
12
00:01:11,594 --> 00:01:13,175
-Who did Lincoln?
-I have no idea.
13
00:01:13,349 --> 00:01:16,060
When you think of Lincoln,
you think of the photographs.
14
00:01:16,233 --> 00:01:20,073
Particularly that last one, where the
plate broke. Fifty-six, he looked ancient.
15
00:01:20,246 --> 00:01:21,411
It's Leo.
16
00:01:25,804 --> 00:01:28,895
-I'm late.
-General Alexander is waiting in the Oval.
17
00:01:29,064 --> 00:01:33,118
-I should have brought my tie.
-We've got a situation.
18
00:01:33,620 --> 00:01:35,831
Of course we do.
19
00:01:36,922 --> 00:01:38,384
General, you have a tie?
20
00:01:38,552 --> 00:01:42,974
Mr. President, several hours ago
protesters began gathering in Riyadh...
21
00:01:43,150 --> 00:01:46,692
...calling for free speech,
press and popular elections.
22
00:01:48,834 --> 00:01:52,887
It's in the streets. Maybe a thousand.
Midnight over there, and it's still growing.
23
00:01:53,055 --> 00:01:55,016
Who's leading the protest?
24
00:01:55,187 --> 00:01:56,648
We don't know.
25
00:01:56,817 --> 00:01:59,693
State's calling the embassy,
waking everyone up.
26
00:01:59,868 --> 00:02:05,003
One thing's clear, Mr. President: In
Riyadh, this has never happened before.
27
00:02:07,265 --> 00:02:08,846
Leo?
28
00:02:09,021 --> 00:02:11,018
Free speech is good.
29
00:02:11,194 --> 00:02:14,320
Free-for-all for a quarter
of the world's oil reserves...
30
00:02:14,496 --> 00:02:18,122
...laced with rabid
anti-American sentiment... .
31
00:02:20,097 --> 00:02:21,510
Yeah.
32
00:03:17,690 --> 00:03:19,486
Ten-hut.
33
00:03:19,989 --> 00:03:21,320
-Gentlemen.
-Sir.
34
00:03:22,748 --> 00:03:26,005
Please.
Did you reach Secretary Berryhill?
35
00:03:26,175 --> 00:03:30,015
Sir, he's in Tokyo. He'd like to fly
to Jordan to monitor the situation.
36
00:03:30,187 --> 00:03:32,065
Good. General?
37
00:03:32,235 --> 00:03:34,565
The number seems
now to be several thousand...
38
00:03:34,743 --> 00:03:36,704
...primarily students and young clerics.
39
00:03:36,875 --> 00:03:40,928
They're using anti-American rhetoric,
yet demanding democratic reforms.
40
00:03:41,138 --> 00:03:43,468
-Are they armed?
-CNN's reporting they're not.
41
00:03:43,687 --> 00:03:46,183
Do we have any real
intelligence on these people?
44
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:57,552
...the Saudis are very concerned
with their image in the West.
45
00:03:57,730 --> 00:03:59,774
If the demonstrations
remain nonviolent--
46
00:03:59,987 --> 00:04:02,150
We have time before
they start breaking legs?
47
00:04:02,370 --> 00:04:04,450
Public beheadings are more their style.
48
00:04:04,668 --> 00:04:08,626
It will give us a chance to establish
contact with the leaders of the protest.
49
00:04:08,806 --> 00:04:11,517
-lf they are democratic--
-I don't need to remind you...
50
00:04:11,690 --> 00:04:16,243
...that chaos on the Arabian peninsula
could destabilize the entire Middle East.
51
00:04:16,413 --> 00:04:18,244
Throw the global economy into crisis.
52
00:04:18,461 --> 00:04:20,838
If it's a Trojan horse
for a fundamentalist coup--
53
00:04:21,052 --> 00:04:23,595
-We'd better start buying hybrids.
-And gas masks.
54
00:04:23,811 --> 00:04:27,567
-Mr. President, the devil you know--
-Is one I'm pretty tired of dancing with.
55
00:04:27,739 --> 00:04:29,320
Get me better intelligence.
56
00:04:29,495 --> 00:04:32,418
And, Leo, let's get the
ambassador in here first thing.
57
00:04:32,713 --> 00:04:35,256
-Thanks, everybody.
-Thank you, Mr. President.
58
00:04:35,430 --> 00:04:38,603
You want the latest on Riyadh?
So do I. We can watch CNN together.
59
00:04:38,773 --> 00:04:41,697
C.J., any update on former
President Lassiter's condition?
60
00:04:41,866 --> 00:04:44,279
Lassiter is recovering
nicely from the operation.
61
00:04:44,458 --> 00:04:48,130
If I took as many trips as he does,
I'd have to get my hip replaced as well.
62
00:04:48,303 --> 00:04:52,225
Now, let me see if I can answer the rest
of your questions so I can get dressed.
63
00:04:52,399 --> 00:04:55,406
The president will attend
the gala at Ford's Theater tonight.
64
00:04:55,575 --> 00:04:57,156
Yes, it's where Lincoln was shot.
65
00:04:57,330 --> 00:05:00,338
We're expecting the president's
Lincolnalia to be in rare form.
66
00:05:00,507 --> 00:05:03,847
Yes, the bad jokes can start now,
and that means I can't call on... .
67
00:05:04,018 --> 00:05:05,979
See, I told you we were done.
68
00:05:06,149 --> 00:05:07,730
Thank you.
69
00:05:07,905 --> 00:05:12,161
A source in the Pentagon says the military
is funding mind-control experiments.
70
00:05:12,335 --> 00:05:15,461
-Mind control? Who are you?
-Randal Fierstin, Backslash Magazine.
71
00:05:15,637 --> 00:05:17,930
Backslash Magazine?
Oh, come on.
72
00:05:18,103 --> 00:05:20,682
-Who let you in here?
-I have a source. Two, in fact.
73
00:05:20,861 --> 00:05:24,035
Randal, I meant bad jokes
about Ford's Theater.
74
00:05:24,205 --> 00:05:26,000
So the White House has no comment.
75
00:05:26,169 --> 00:05:28,665
The White House in this dimension?
76
00:05:28,970 --> 00:05:31,382
Backslash Magazine.
You're dressed and ready to go.
77
00:05:31,561 --> 00:05:32,939
-This is true.
-I'm not.
78
00:05:33,107 --> 00:05:35,603
-Also true.
-Is there a reason you're following me?
79
00:05:35,782 --> 00:05:37,743
-Do I need one?
-You're avoiding the president.
80
00:05:37,914 --> 00:05:39,827
-Yeah.
-I don't have to go, do I?
81
00:05:40,003 --> 00:05:43,046
-Into the valley of death rode the 600.
-That's helpful.
82
00:05:43,222 --> 00:05:45,515
What do you know
about mind-control experiments?
83
00:05:45,688 --> 00:05:47,269
-MK-ULTRA.
-Excuse me?
84
00:05:47,443 --> 00:05:50,284
In the '50s, it was the CIA
mind-control research program...
85
00:05:50,452 --> 00:05:53,412
...begun in response to the Chinese
attempt on U.S. prisoners.
86
00:05:53,587 --> 00:05:56,797
-Like The Manchurian Candidate.
-Like what's gonna happen tonight.
87
00:05:56,972 --> 00:05:58,434
You're ready too.
88
00:05:58,602 --> 00:06:02,193
-It's a far, far better thing I do... .
-Maybe it'll be different this year.
89
00:06:02,364 --> 00:06:04,694
-No.
-But it's long gone, yes?
90
00:06:04,872 --> 00:06:06,500
Mind control?
91
00:06:06,669 --> 00:06:09,344
It worked on Freddie Briggs
when I was 16.
92
00:06:09,511 --> 00:06:12,554
-Freddie Briggs?
-He was my first. Was he my first?
93
00:06:12,729 --> 00:06:15,356
-Sixteen?
-I'm the only one who's not dressed?
94
00:06:15,530 --> 00:06:17,027
-Was your dress stolen?
-No.
95
00:06:17,201 --> 00:06:20,827
-The copy of the Bill of Rights was stolen.
-There are copies around?
96
00:06:21,005 --> 00:06:24,178
George Washington sent copies
to each of the 13 original colonies.
97
00:06:24,348 --> 00:06:27,391
North Carolina's got snatched
at the end of the Civil War.
98
00:06:27,567 --> 00:06:30,241
-Scintillating.
-The soldier was from Connecticut.
99
00:06:30,409 --> 00:06:32,452
-Josh is from Connecticut.
-That's right.
100
00:06:32,624 --> 00:06:36,130
Go Whalers. Not a ton to get
excited about in the Nutmeg State.
101
00:06:36,302 --> 00:06:40,058
The FBI seized it, both states claim
ownership, the case is in federal court.
102
00:06:40,231 --> 00:06:43,404
-Didn't North Carolina steal the Whalers?
-People are going crazy.
103
00:06:43,574 --> 00:06:47,164
The president's appearing in Raleigh next
week. They're handing out fliers.
104
00:06:47,336 --> 00:06:49,547
Okay.
Who's on it at the AG's office?
105
00:06:49,718 --> 00:06:52,131
-That would be Freddie Briggs.
-No.
106
00:06:52,309 --> 00:06:54,520
No, but I had you.
107
00:06:54,692 --> 00:06:56,688
Sixteen.
108
00:06:57,116 --> 00:07:02,251
--the Persian Gulf, Southeast Asia andJapan are major consumers of Saudi oil.
109
00:07:02,466 --> 00:07:07,184
In a single-world market, a price of oilwould be 260 billion barrels of oil.
110
00:07:07,356 --> 00:07:09,317
It's the epicenter of the world economy.
111
00:07:09,487 --> 00:07:13,993
A civil war, a fanatical new regime.These could imperil our very way of life.
112
00:07:14,168 --> 00:07:16,498
-Yeah, no kidding.
-Oh, Toby!
113
00:07:16,801 --> 00:07:18,798
-Yeah?
-Was there something you wanted?
114
00:07:19,017 --> 00:07:20,348
World peace?
115
00:07:20,521 --> 00:07:22,732
Go hide from the president
somewhere else.
116
00:07:25,369 --> 00:07:26,867
Out!
117
00:07:31,681 --> 00:07:33,392
Waiting for your date?
118
00:07:33,561 --> 00:07:36,521
-She's late. Go figure.
-When you start dating younger women--
119
00:07:36,696 --> 00:07:39,371
I hear you're old enough
to be her father.
120
00:07:39,538 --> 00:07:41,868
Al Jazeera's reporting
10,000 in the streets...
121
00:07:42,046 --> 00:07:45,552
...and protests now
in Jiddah, Burydah, Rafha.
122
00:07:45,724 --> 00:07:47,804
-State find out anything?
-They're digging.
123
00:07:47,981 --> 00:07:51,357
Berryhill's en route to Jordan
and the king's brother's on his way.
124
00:07:51,533 --> 00:07:53,197
Bitar?
125
00:07:53,707 --> 00:07:56,203
We're not the only ones
who think this is a thing.
126
00:07:56,382 --> 00:07:58,425
-Yeah.
-I'll see you at the theater.
127
00:07:58,597 --> 00:08:00,059
Josh.
128
00:08:00,227 --> 00:08:02,057
-Josh.
-Hey.
129
00:08:02,233 --> 00:08:04,396
You might not wanna be--
130
00:08:05,702 --> 00:08:08,412
-Have you been to Ford's Theater?
-It's my first time.
131
00:08:08,586 --> 00:08:12,294
Oh, well, you gotta talk to the president
about Lincoln, about the Civil War.
132
00:08:12,473 --> 00:08:13,970
Sit with him. It's educational.
133
00:08:14,145 --> 00:08:16,141
What are you doing? He's on his way.
134
00:08:16,318 --> 00:08:19,242
-Maybe if we don't ask--
-lf you don't miss the easy ones.
135
00:08:19,411 --> 00:08:21,538
-I didn't miss a question.
-It wasn't me.
136
00:08:21,710 --> 00:08:24,253
We had to go downstairs with him
and open the museum.
137
00:08:24,426 --> 00:08:26,756
-What are you talking about?
-Sit with him.
138
00:08:26,934 --> 00:08:29,061
I'm not sitting with him.
I did last year.
139
00:08:29,233 --> 00:08:31,908
He'll start in with Lincoln's
first inaugural address...
140
00:08:32,075 --> 00:08:35,201
...and then carry on through
to the letter Lincoln wrote...
141
00:08:35,377 --> 00:08:38,753
...to the woman who lost all her sons,
who didn't really lose her sons.
142
00:08:38,929 --> 00:08:41,140
-You have Sandburg's number?
-Sandburg is dead.
143
00:08:41,312 --> 00:08:43,605
-Oh, sure. Take the easy way out.
-No, it's not.
144
00:08:43,777 --> 00:08:46,190
I'm not gonna ask this year,
don't worry.
145
00:08:46,369 --> 00:08:48,199
-Evening, Mr. President.
-Good evening.
146
00:08:48,375 --> 00:08:49,706
I'm not going to ask...
147
00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:52,554
...what was the line
that made the audience laugh...
148
00:08:52,722 --> 00:08:56,644
...that John Wilkes Booth used
as cover to enter the presidential box?
149
00:08:56,818 --> 00:08:59,611
I'm not gonna ask about
the broken lock to the box...
150
00:08:59,785 --> 00:09:01,282
...the snapping shinbone...
151
00:09:01,457 --> 00:09:05,165
...sic semper tyrannis.
Major Rathbone and Clara Harris.
152
00:09:05,344 --> 00:09:07,971
Or the exact time
Lincoln drew his final breath.
153
00:09:08,144 --> 00:09:10,438
I know that one, 7:21:55.
154
00:09:10,610 --> 00:09:12,191
And the final heartbeat?
155
00:09:12,365 --> 00:09:13,863
He had to open his mouth.
156
00:09:14,037 --> 00:09:16,165
Every year, Josh. Always the first one.
157
00:09:16,336 --> 00:09:19,462
Angela, why don't you ride with me.
158
00:09:26,074 --> 00:09:27,536
Oh, hi, Dad. Sorry.
159
00:09:27,704 --> 00:09:30,379
It's not nice to keep
the gentleman waiting.
160
00:09:30,546 --> 00:09:33,969
-Mal, I hardly recognize you.
-Oh, and why is that, do you suppose?
161
00:09:34,141 --> 00:09:37,314
That's why we're here. You can
tell me everything that's going on.
162
00:09:37,484 --> 00:09:38,898
Okay.
163
00:09:39,073 --> 00:09:41,485
Did I mention I'm taking
that job in Tanzania?
164
00:09:41,664 --> 00:09:43,459
Yeah. Let's go.
165
00:09:43,628 --> 00:09:46,469
-The president's dead.
-What's going on?
166
00:09:46,638 --> 00:09:48,765
What's happening, Dad?
167
00:09:49,647 --> 00:09:51,228
Sir.
168
00:09:52,489 --> 00:09:55,164
President Lassiter is dead.
169
00:10:01,726 --> 00:10:03,521
-Right-wing Republican.
-Conservative.
170
00:10:03,690 --> 00:10:05,770
-Attila-the-Hun conservative.
-Lunatic wife.
171
00:10:05,947 --> 00:10:08,324
Lunatic, Lady Macbeth of a wife.
172
00:10:08,497 --> 00:10:11,420
Didn't Lassiter vote against
the Emancipation Proclamation?
173
00:10:11,589 --> 00:10:14,716
-I'm not writing the eulogy.
-You're riding on Air Force One.
174
00:10:14,891 --> 00:10:17,518
-I am not.
-I thought it was a hip operation.
175
00:10:17,691 --> 00:10:20,188
All good things must come to pass.
176
00:10:20,366 --> 00:10:22,613
Angela Blake,
Lieutenant Colonel Castorp.
177
00:10:22,791 --> 00:10:24,288
It's a pleasure, colonel.
178
00:10:24,462 --> 00:10:27,672
-Colonel.
-I have the file here, sir.
179
00:10:27,848 --> 00:10:29,595
The file?
180
00:10:29,770 --> 00:10:31,732
The dead presidents file.
181
00:10:31,902 --> 00:10:36,158
Oh, this is Lieutenant Colonel Castorp,
from the military district of Washington.
182
00:10:36,332 --> 00:10:40,469
Upon a president's death, his unit
coordinates travel of dignitaries...
183
00:10:40,637 --> 00:10:44,429
...and handles protocol in concert
with the wishes of the family.
184
00:10:45,151 --> 00:10:47,278
-You keep a file on all the presidents?
-Yes.
185
00:10:47,450 --> 00:10:50,125
-You got one on Walken?
-Thanks, colonel.
186
00:10:50,292 --> 00:10:54,429
President Lassiter's funeral will be held
at the Lassiter Library in Costa Mesa.
187
00:10:54,597 --> 00:10:56,094
The one with the fake Oval.
188
00:10:56,269 --> 00:10:58,480
The president's
giving one of the eulogies.
189
00:10:58,651 --> 00:11:01,028
I'm staying to monitor
the situation in Riyadh.
190
00:11:01,242 --> 00:11:02,620
I need C.J. here to brief.
191
00:11:02,872 --> 00:11:06,664
Toby, I don't wanna hear it. You're
on Air Force One, writing the eulogy.
192
00:11:06,843 --> 00:11:10,385
Josh, you'll help the lieutenant colonel
coordinate with Mrs. Lassiter.
193
00:11:10,563 --> 00:11:14,188
Leo, I got lawyers from Connecticut
and North Carolina coming to--
194
00:11:14,366 --> 00:11:16,493
-What?
-A Union soldier...
195
00:11:16,665 --> 00:11:19,957
...stole a copy of the Bill of Rights
at the end of the Civil War.
196
00:11:20,175 --> 00:11:23,848
A dead president, time bomb in Riyadh,
and you're arbitrating the Civil War?
197
00:11:24,021 --> 00:11:26,267
I hear they're threatening
to rally in Raleigh.
198
00:11:26,654 --> 00:11:30,030
Yeah. Introduce Donna
to Lieutenant Colonel Castorp.
199
00:11:30,206 --> 00:11:31,834
Class dismissed.
200
00:11:34,846 --> 00:11:37,092
Leo, I got a question yesterday.
201
00:11:37,270 --> 00:11:40,146
Tell me we're not conducting
mind-control research.
202
00:11:40,697 --> 00:11:43,276
We're not conducting
mind-control research.
203
00:11:44,709 --> 00:11:46,421
You're not doing it on me right now?
204
00:11:46,632 --> 00:11:49,389
-There might be something at DARPA.
-DARPA.
205
00:11:49,558 --> 00:11:52,018
The guys who research
flying cars and x-ray vision?
206
00:11:52,232 --> 00:11:55,656
Also the guys who invented GPS,
stealth technology and the Internet.
207
00:11:55,827 --> 00:11:59,749
But if the public finds out we're spending
taxpayer dollars on mind control--
208
00:11:59,923 --> 00:12:01,718
Give the DOD a call.
209
00:12:04,270 --> 00:12:05,933
I have to babysit the first widow?
210
00:12:06,109 --> 00:12:08,236
Beehive hair, dewlaps...
211
00:12:08,407 --> 00:12:11,118
...hysterical phone calls
all hours of the day and night.
212
00:12:11,291 --> 00:12:13,502
And Lieutenant Colonel Castorp.
You'll love it.
213
00:12:13,673 --> 00:12:15,005
Why can't you do it?
214
00:12:15,178 --> 00:12:17,555
I'm gonna be watching
a reenactment of Gettysburg.
215
00:12:17,728 --> 00:12:20,854
Since when do you care about
the Bill of Rights? The Civil War--
216
00:12:21,029 --> 00:12:23,704
-Whaler pride.
-You sold me down the river.
217
00:12:23,872 --> 00:12:27,248
Mine eyes have seen the glory
of the coming of the Lord.
218
00:12:27,424 --> 00:12:32,262
I love New York. The light on the water
towers and the tops of the buildings.
219
00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:35,066
These water wells,
hundreds of feet above the ground.
220
00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:38,366
Hell of a long way to toss a canteen.
221
00:12:38,918 --> 00:12:41,759
Prince Bitar. Please.
222
00:12:41,927 --> 00:12:45,517
The prince was giving me
a virtual tour of New York.
223
00:12:45,689 --> 00:12:48,267
I come with greetings
from the royal family...
224
00:12:48,447 --> 00:12:52,287
...who convey their pleasure at the way
our countries weathered recent storms...
225
00:12:52,460 --> 00:12:54,171
...in keeping with our friendship.
226
00:12:54,340 --> 00:12:57,799
And Leo here thought you were
coming to talk about the protest.
227
00:12:57,976 --> 00:13:01,150
Protest? Hardly.
A few errant schoolboys.
228
00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:04,446
A few thousand schoolboys
and a couple thousand clerics.
229
00:13:05,458 --> 00:13:09,000
-It's of no concern.
-Your country's crying out for reform.
230
00:13:09,219 --> 00:13:11,133
Things must be done
at the proper pace.
231
00:13:11,351 --> 00:13:15,059
You've got 10,000 people who seem
to think you're not moving fast enough.
232
00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:16,991
We've announced plans for elections.
233
00:13:17,202 --> 00:13:21,755
I recall you passed a law to elect
municipal councils in 1975.
234
00:13:22,051 --> 00:13:25,307
Hasn't happened yet. You'll forgive us
if we don't hold our breath.
235
00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:29,942
Do you really wish to see the results
of popular elections in my country?
236
00:13:30,368 --> 00:13:33,910
The royal family's very large.
There are thousands of members.
237
00:13:34,129 --> 00:13:37,636
At times, some have been
less than progressive.
238
00:13:37,807 --> 00:13:40,518
But we do want change.
Manageable change.
239
00:13:40,733 --> 00:13:43,146
You'll keep us in the loop
on the situation?
240
00:13:43,366 --> 00:13:46,457
Of course. And yet if things
suddenly become unruly, we--
241
00:13:46,668 --> 00:13:49,592
-I trust you'll consult with us.
-As friends do.
242
00:13:51,015 --> 00:13:52,643
As you would consult with us.
243
00:13:53,690 --> 00:13:55,318
Thank you.
244
00:13:59,290 --> 00:14:01,965
Mr. President,
when these schoolboys protest...
245
00:14:02,132 --> 00:14:05,758
...when they truly wish to denounce us,
you know what they say?
246
00:14:05,936 --> 00:14:07,647
They call us Americans.
247
00:14:39,999 --> 00:14:44,171
Why former President Newman wanted
to fly with the GOP geriatric brigade.
248
00:14:44,387 --> 00:14:46,884
I'm gonna crank up
"The Battle Hymn of the Republic. "
249
00:14:47,062 --> 00:14:49,106
Josh, shut up.You want a history lesson?
250
00:14:49,277 --> 00:14:53,069
I'm in Madame Tussaud's.
All of Lassiter's men.
251
00:14:53,248 --> 00:14:56,374
There's Robert Rosiello,
who I think tried to sell back Alaska...
252
00:14:56,550 --> 00:15:01,471
...when he was Secretary of the Interior.
Max Pearlman, who served three to five.
253
00:15:01,649 --> 00:15:03,860
Earl Rankowsky, he's on oxygen.
254
00:15:04,031 --> 00:15:07,241
Dwight Mothman,
they must have exhumed him.
255
00:15:07,458 --> 00:15:08,956
And Bobby Bodine, Josh...
256
00:15:09,130 --> 00:15:13,600
... the one who said, "We have enemieswithout and within, and we must purge--"
257
00:15:13,811 --> 00:15:16,438
He actually used that word.
"Purge them all...
258
00:15:16,612 --> 00:15:19,155
...until we are purified. "
259
00:15:19,328 --> 00:15:20,909
Purified.
260
00:15:21,084 --> 00:15:24,126
Who needs Dante?
I'm on my way to hell at 30,000 feet.
261
00:15:25,180 --> 00:15:27,057
-Hi.
-Josh Lyman.
262
00:15:27,228 --> 00:15:29,438
-Ralph Fairfax, from Fairfield.
-Marylou.
263
00:15:29,652 --> 00:15:33,824
A pleasure. Wouldn't you agree
that in the chaos and disarray of war...
264
00:15:33,998 --> 00:15:38,087
...to make off with our state's prized
possession, a piece of our heritage...
265
00:15:38,261 --> 00:15:40,936
...doesn't that sound more like
raping and pillaging?
266
00:15:41,104 --> 00:15:43,266
-We bought it legitimately.
-You stole it.
267
00:15:44,196 --> 00:15:46,158
I think we're off to a promising start.
268
00:15:47,122 --> 00:15:49,749
-A copy of the Bill of Rights belongs--
-To the Union.
269
00:15:49,922 --> 00:15:52,597
You seceded. This is why we needed
General Order 100.
270
00:15:52,806 --> 00:15:55,730
-General Order 100?
-All confiscated rebel property...
271
00:15:55,899 --> 00:15:58,823
-...belonged to the Union.
-Tromped by Special Order 88.
272
00:15:58,992 --> 00:16:01,238
-Special Order 88?
-Issued by a Union general.
273
00:16:01,416 --> 00:16:04,542
All archives and property entrusted
to Carolina must be returned.
274
00:16:05,136 --> 00:16:08,642
The Bill of Rights made 100
unconstitutional. It violated due process.
275
00:16:08,814 --> 00:16:11,441
One of my law-school classmates
published an article...
276
00:16:11,614 --> 00:16:13,825
...on the constitutionality
of Lincoln's order.
277
00:16:14,038 --> 00:16:15,500
Akhil Amar.
278
00:16:16,379 --> 00:16:18,875
-You went to Yale?
-Well, Yale's close to home.
279
00:16:19,095 --> 00:16:21,092
-You're from Connecticut?
-Connecticut?
280
00:16:22,356 --> 00:16:24,317
Go Whalers.
281
00:16:24,863 --> 00:16:27,490
--Riyadh entered its third dayof demonstrations.
282
00:16:27,664 --> 00:16:31,170
And while the demonstrations arepeaceful, tensions remain high.
283
00:16:31,342 --> 00:16:32,887
-The president on his way?
-Yeah.
284
00:16:33,055 --> 00:16:37,608
-We had to get the forklift out for Toby.
-CNN reports crowds in smaller cities.
285
00:16:37,778 --> 00:16:40,619
-Where are you going?
-I'm meeting Mallory at Oberdorfers.
286
00:16:40,787 --> 00:16:43,117
I was supposed to take her
to Ford's Theater.
287
00:16:43,295 --> 00:16:46,635
With all that was going on,
I kind of had to--
288
00:16:46,806 --> 00:16:48,387
I'll be back in an hour.
289
00:16:48,561 --> 00:16:50,938
-The DARPA budget.
-I thought it was classified.
290
00:16:51,111 --> 00:16:53,786
-It's on the Internet.
-Hoisted on their own petard.
291
00:16:53,953 --> 00:16:56,080
-Any word back from the DOD?
-Not yet.
292
00:16:56,252 --> 00:16:58,414
-There's a man in your office.
-Okay.
293
00:16:58,592 --> 00:17:01,849
I didn't see him come.
I turned around and he was there.
294
00:17:02,019 --> 00:17:04,147
A man in my office.
295
00:17:05,029 --> 00:17:06,740
Is he dashing?
296
00:17:06,909 --> 00:17:09,286
Not how I'd describe him.
297
00:17:11,340 --> 00:17:12,968
Can I help you?
298
00:17:13,137 --> 00:17:15,894
-There are no firewalls on here.
-Excuse me?
299
00:17:16,062 --> 00:17:17,690
I could do something with this.
300
00:17:17,860 --> 00:17:20,106
I could call security
to do something with you.
301
00:17:20,326 --> 00:17:22,239
Oh, sorry.
302
00:17:23,544 --> 00:17:28,263
I'm Dr. Max Milkman, from the Defense
Advanced Research Projects Agency.
303
00:17:28,434 --> 00:17:29,765
-Dr. Milkman.
-Yes.
304
00:17:29,939 --> 00:17:31,270
-The man from DARPA.
-Yes.
305
00:17:31,443 --> 00:17:34,450
I've been reading about you.
Operation Midnight Climax.
306
00:17:34,661 --> 00:17:38,120
Setting up brothels, testing LSD
on the patrons without their knowledge.
307
00:17:38,339 --> 00:17:42,215
-Talk about a mind-blowing experience.
-Please. Ms. Cregg, that was ARPA.
308
00:17:42,394 --> 00:17:44,224
-ARPA?
-ARPA, not DARPA.
309
00:17:44,441 --> 00:17:46,319
I can't tell you
how comforting that is.
310
00:17:46,489 --> 00:17:48,783
This is Colonel Gantry speaking.
311
00:17:48,955 --> 00:17:52,212
We radioed ahead and it looks likeclear skies the rest of the way.
312
00:17:52,383 --> 00:17:54,510
-You okay?
-Do I look okay?
313
00:17:54,681 --> 00:17:56,179
Not so much.
314
00:17:56,353 --> 00:17:58,980
I think Bobby Bodine
was looking for you.
315
00:18:01,536 --> 00:18:04,662
Enemies without and within.
316
00:18:07,721 --> 00:18:10,348
Thank you.
Come on, I'll show you around.
317
00:18:10,522 --> 00:18:13,814
-Looks like a new plane.
-Reconditioned and reconfigured, I think.
318
00:18:13,991 --> 00:18:17,331
-Don't care much for the color.
-You should see the house.
319
00:18:17,502 --> 00:18:20,758
The Mauve House?
What, shades of puce?
320
00:18:20,929 --> 00:18:22,343
I wouldn't doubt it.
321
00:18:22,517 --> 00:18:26,024
-I got the NSC brief this morning.
-Yeah, I wish they wouldn't do that.
322
00:18:26,195 --> 00:18:28,572
Those protesters are talking
about democracy, Jed.
323
00:18:28,745 --> 00:18:31,371
We don't know what they're
talking about, D.W. Not yet.
324
00:18:31,545 --> 00:18:34,755
-The royal family had--
-They're a convenience, getting rich...
325
00:18:34,930 --> 00:18:39,935
...off the oil we gobble up, spending their
billions promoting radical Wahhabists.
326
00:18:40,113 --> 00:18:41,776
That was a bad bed we made.
327
00:18:41,952 --> 00:18:46,374
I had to live with it in my day,
but it's time for a change.
328
00:18:46,549 --> 00:18:49,176
Trust the people, Jed.
They'll make rational decisions.
329
00:18:49,350 --> 00:18:53,190
In the deserts of Arabia,
are there any rational decisions?
330
00:18:53,362 --> 00:18:55,941
-Excuse me. Sorry, Mr. President.
-Raiding the pantry?
331
00:18:56,120 --> 00:18:59,044
Just a prop, sir,
to help me with the eulogy.
332
00:18:59,339 --> 00:19:02,596
-You know President Newman?
-Yes. I voted for you a couple of times.
333
00:19:02,808 --> 00:19:05,054
You seem to be voting
against me at the moment.
334
00:19:05,232 --> 00:19:08,489
-It's hard to get Toby to speak his mind.
-It just seems to me...
335
00:19:08,659 --> 00:19:12,332
...that most Muslims on the Arabian
Peninsula believe they must choose...
336
00:19:12,504 --> 00:19:14,834
...between the law of Allah
and the laws of man.
337
00:19:15,054 --> 00:19:18,560
I see. Arabs don't make rational
decisions, only fundamentalist ones.
338
00:19:18,773 --> 00:19:21,615
Without strong guidance,
elections could be a onetime event.
339
00:19:21,783 --> 00:19:24,195
Strong guidance.
You think we should colonize?
340
00:19:24,416 --> 00:19:28,291
No. I think we should run away
as fast and as far away as we can.
341
00:19:28,512 --> 00:19:32,732
I think our friends in Britain would argue
it's the best way to midwife modernity.
342
00:19:32,900 --> 00:19:35,943
And didn't they do a bang-up job
with the Arabian Peninsula.
343
00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:38,960
Mr. President. President Bartlet.
It's Leo. Do you wanna--?
344
00:19:39,128 --> 00:19:41,540
-I'll take it here. Excuse us?
-Mr. President.
345
00:19:49,409 --> 00:19:51,953
-Yeah.
-Sir, there's been a development.
346
00:19:52,168 --> 00:19:55,460
Protesters have surrounded
the Aramco facility in Dhahran.
347
00:19:55,679 --> 00:19:57,925
They're picketing
the Saudi oil headquarters?
348
00:19:58,145 --> 00:20:02,103
The compound includes 40 homes,
200 people, including 50 Americans.
349
00:20:02,324 --> 00:20:04,452
-Are they at risk?
-The protesters...
350
00:20:04,665 --> 00:20:08,338
...are refusing to let anyone in or out
until their demands are met.
351
00:20:08,510 --> 00:20:13,182
We've also managed to identify
a number of the leaders of the protest.
352
00:20:13,358 --> 00:20:15,819
They appear to be
members of the royal family.
353
00:20:19,962 --> 00:20:22,838
The honor guard will escortthe casket to the grounds...
354
00:20:23,013 --> 00:20:26,270
...after the buglers warm up,but before they seat the presidents.
355
00:20:26,482 --> 00:20:29,655
The reverend will open the program,
and Mrs. Lassiter requested...
356
00:20:29,826 --> 00:20:31,406
...the president give the eulogy.
357
00:20:31,581 --> 00:20:34,338
She also asked for
five minutes with the president.
358
00:20:34,716 --> 00:20:38,056
-I'm on the voyage of the damned.
-Village. It was village.
359
00:20:38,268 --> 00:20:39,896
What's the difference?
360
00:20:40,065 --> 00:20:42,359
-Why are we descending?
-What?
361
00:20:42,531 --> 00:20:44,659
-This plane. It's going down.
-What?
362
00:20:44,872 --> 00:20:47,748
-To pick up President Walken.
-Has he been drinking?
363
00:20:49,511 --> 00:20:51,591
I don't think so.
364
00:20:51,810 --> 00:20:55,898
We are dealing with a foreign-policy
dilemma of unmatched perplexities...
365
00:20:56,073 --> 00:20:58,534
...with consequences
lurking at every turn.
366
00:20:58,748 --> 00:21:01,375
-What's he talking about?
-Maybe not so unlike a woman.
367
00:21:01,548 --> 00:21:03,094
Toby, focus.
368
00:21:03,304 --> 00:21:06,014
Mrs. Lassiter wants five
minutes with the president.
369
00:21:06,229 --> 00:21:08,808
Suicide is painless
370
00:21:09,824 --> 00:21:11,820
-Charlie, is he singing?
-I don't think so.
371
00:21:11,997 --> 00:21:14,077
It brings on
372
00:21:14,839 --> 00:21:17,002
Many changes
373
00:21:17,598 --> 00:21:21,140
Dhahran 's the nerve center. It goes,the world loses 5 million barrels.
374
00:21:21,317 --> 00:21:22,779
Not to mention 50 Americans.
375
00:21:22,947 --> 00:21:24,944
It's a nonviolent protest.
376
00:21:25,162 --> 00:21:29,549
Mr. President, we've located a political
officer at the embassy, a Dan Strasser...
377
00:21:29,718 --> 00:21:33,344
...who has a relationship with
one of the princes leading the protest.
378
00:21:33,522 --> 00:21:35,483
He's on leave.
We're tracking him down.
379
00:21:35,653 --> 00:21:38,328
-George, what's your take?
-This Prince Arujunah...
380
00:21:38,495 --> 00:21:41,038
...was educated at Harvard,
but anything's possible.
381
00:21:41,212 --> 00:21:43,375
-He could be real or not.
-In the meantime...
382
00:21:43,552 --> 00:21:46,595
... we need to prepare to evacuatethe Americans in the compound.
383
00:21:46,812 --> 00:21:50,770
This looks and feels like the beginningof a real democratic movement.
384
00:21:50,992 --> 00:21:55,711
-Over the next few hours, as we learn--
-Sir, this is Iran in '79, not '97.
385
00:21:55,882 --> 00:21:57,879
Even if this Arujunah
has noble motives...
386
00:21:58,055 --> 00:22:01,514
...the not-so-silent majority isn't
gonna vote for a more perfect union.
387
00:22:01,692 --> 00:22:03,605
We could be hours away
from civil war.
388
00:22:03,823 --> 00:22:07,912
If their troops, if the national guard
is mobilizing, how long do we have?
389
00:22:08,128 --> 00:22:10,707
-A couple hours, maybe less.
-Okay.
390
00:22:10,928 --> 00:22:14,471
Ted, you and Berryhill have an hour
to track down this Strasser guy.
391
00:22:14,648 --> 00:22:17,525
Miles, I want you to stay
in constant contact...
392
00:22:17,699 --> 00:22:19,827
...with the security forces
at the compound.
393
00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:22,963
And, general, fuel up
the Chinooks on the Peleliu.
394
00:22:23,133 --> 00:22:25,426
-We hear any noise out of Dhahran--
-Yes, sir.
395
00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:29,147
Wanna let Bitar know we're holding
him accountable for the safety of--?
396
00:22:29,360 --> 00:22:33,616
We send that message, they're
definitely gonna start knocking heads.
397
00:22:33,790 --> 00:22:39,009
Say we're confident in the monarchy's
ability to broker a peaceful solution.
398
00:22:41,857 --> 00:22:45,114
One hour, gentlemen,
and we're gonna have to make a call.
399
00:22:50,049 --> 00:22:53,555
Ought to be a warning when you
hitch up to be leader of the free world.
400
00:23:10,194 --> 00:23:11,906
What happened in here?
401
00:23:12,075 --> 00:23:15,582
I'm not biased just because
I'm from Connecticut.
402
00:23:17,258 --> 00:23:20,218
I see how Carolina thinks
it's entitled to the Bill of Rights.
403
00:23:22,524 --> 00:23:25,365
Okay, fine. I'm biased.
They denounced the Constitution.
404
00:23:25,533 --> 00:23:28,540
They denounced the Bill of Rights.
They seceded from the Union.
405
00:23:28,709 --> 00:23:32,965
You wanna go back 140 years?
Why not 200?
406
00:23:33,140 --> 00:23:36,182
North Carolina's the reason
we have a Bill of Rights.
407
00:23:36,358 --> 00:23:40,696
Your New England patriots were ready to
dump the bill into the Long Island Sound.
408
00:23:41,666 --> 00:23:43,579
-Where are you from?
-Asheville.
409
00:23:43,798 --> 00:23:47,007
-North Carolina?
-No rights amendments, no ball game.
410
00:23:47,225 --> 00:23:49,352
We refused to ratify
the Constitution without it.
411
00:23:49,565 --> 00:23:53,322
You certainly placed a lot of importance
on those rights in the 1800s.
412
00:23:53,494 --> 00:23:58,082
-Especially about life, liberty, property.
-You're lecturing me on equal rights?
413
00:23:58,259 --> 00:24:02,729
How does a state that fought for slavery
claim ownership in a document that--?
414
00:24:02,898 --> 00:24:06,904
First, Josh, the war wasn't just
about slavery. It was about industry.
415
00:24:07,078 --> 00:24:11,999
Second, that's why North Carolina
needs a copy in Raleigh to remind them.
416
00:24:12,177 --> 00:24:15,849
And third, Connecticut has the highest
per capita income in the country.
417
00:24:16,022 --> 00:24:19,980
They want the paper so badly, why
don't they compensate North Carolina.
418
00:24:20,661 --> 00:24:22,158
Oh, we'd be willing to pay.
419
00:24:23,879 --> 00:24:26,637
Come on, Bess. General.
420
00:24:26,805 --> 00:24:29,931
-Glen, good to see you.
-Mr. President, it's good to see you.
421
00:24:30,107 --> 00:24:32,948
Just like a fraternity reunion.
Where's the keg?
422
00:24:33,116 --> 00:24:36,872
Or maybe you better break out the bingo
instead. Shut up, Bess. Come on.
423
00:24:39,594 --> 00:24:41,924
Come in.
You know President Newman.
424
00:24:42,102 --> 00:24:44,777
-Mr. President. We've met before.
-Oh, yes.
425
00:24:45,111 --> 00:24:49,248
So, what are you up to these days,
Glen? Vouchers? School prayer?
426
00:24:49,416 --> 00:24:52,626
Actually, it's more like dog-walking.
And, of course, my spin class.
427
00:24:52,802 --> 00:24:54,929
You're not looking
for another place to bomb?
428
00:24:55,142 --> 00:24:57,685
-I like to make an impression.
-You certainly did.
429
00:24:57,901 --> 00:25:01,573
Why should I complain? I'm sure it
helped precipitate the current situation.
430
00:25:01,746 --> 00:25:03,659
I should've taken a longer vacation.
431
00:25:03,877 --> 00:25:05,921
And let him wage war
with the Arab world?
432
00:25:06,134 --> 00:25:08,297
I heard you were
one of my biggest fans.
433
00:25:08,767 --> 00:25:12,904
The old formulas don't work, D.W.
We need to make new choices.
434
00:25:13,114 --> 00:25:16,822
Glen, the protesters are surrounding
the Aramco compound in Dhahran.
435
00:25:17,001 --> 00:25:19,164
What do you think, Glen?
Should we invade?
436
00:25:20,136 --> 00:25:24,189
We need wholesale change in the region.
This is an opportunity.
437
00:25:24,357 --> 00:25:27,198
We're the only superpower.
Why wouldn't we go into Riyadh?
438
00:25:27,408 --> 00:25:29,987
The more of the world
we inhabit, the better it is.
439
00:25:30,250 --> 00:25:33,626
-The buck stops here.
-Yes, the almighty dollar.
440
00:25:34,012 --> 00:25:37,103
In my four years, we spent
$200 billion on foreign oil.
441
00:25:37,439 --> 00:25:40,612
And 100 billion protecting leaders
of the countries supplying it.
442
00:25:40,824 --> 00:25:44,533
How many lunches did I have
playing footsie with some Saudi prince?
443
00:25:44,711 --> 00:25:49,716
Promising to sell them AWACS and
Bradleys, and all in the name of stability.
444
00:25:50,228 --> 00:25:51,559
But I paid a premium.
445
00:25:51,775 --> 00:25:53,986
-His people hate us.
-Of course they hate us.
446
00:25:54,408 --> 00:25:57,451
Because we support their oppressors.
We are their oppressors.
447
00:25:57,668 --> 00:26:00,045
Glen, I'm not sure we have
the stomach for empire.
448
00:26:00,259 --> 00:26:03,219
I'm not looking for empire.
I'm not looking to colonize.
449
00:26:03,394 --> 00:26:05,521
If this protest is a call for democracy...
450
00:26:05,734 --> 00:26:08,825
...I think we should create
a provisional secular government...
451
00:26:09,036 --> 00:26:12,127
...oversee the transition
and get out as fast as we can.
452
00:26:12,296 --> 00:26:15,506
Leaving them with a weak state
and a hated Vichy government.
453
00:26:16,058 --> 00:26:20,610
You really wanna make a difference?
Support this Arujunah from the sidelines.
454
00:26:20,781 --> 00:26:24,121
You start saddling up camels
in every country in the Middle East...
455
00:26:24,291 --> 00:26:28,880
...then you better be prepared to spend
the next 50 years sifting through sand.
456
00:26:29,056 --> 00:26:32,515
Because this isn't
a quick run on the beach, Jed.
457
00:26:32,692 --> 00:26:34,606
This is the new world order.
458
00:26:36,120 --> 00:26:39,710
-Mr. President, we're ready for takeoff.
-Thank you.
459
00:26:41,595 --> 00:26:44,805
Seems you're happy to publicize
your work on micro-nanocameras...
460
00:26:44,980 --> 00:26:47,393
...gecko fingertip adhesion...
461
00:26:47,571 --> 00:26:50,198
...something delightfully
nicknamed "smell-o-vision. "
462
00:26:50,414 --> 00:26:53,290
There is the brain-machine
interface program.
463
00:26:53,465 --> 00:26:57,720
It measures the processes in the brain
in hopes of detecting deceptive intent.
464
00:26:57,937 --> 00:27:02,109
-So not mind control, mind reading?
-Part of a counterterrorism initiative...
465
00:27:02,283 --> 00:27:06,836
...and the heart of our strategy
is bio-surveillance.
466
00:27:07,048 --> 00:27:10,341
-We're mining health databases--
-You're looking at medical records?
467
00:27:10,559 --> 00:27:12,603
-It's anonymous.
-You'll have Social Security numbers...
468
00:27:12,774 --> 00:27:15,567
-...addresses, personal data.
-For the human ID program.
469
00:27:15,783 --> 00:27:18,576
-Human ID.
-Human identification at a distance.
470
00:27:18,751 --> 00:27:24,386
Where we use a variety of biometric
technologies that focus on body parts...
471
00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:26,890
...face identification, human kinematics.
472
00:27:27,110 --> 00:27:28,940
-Kinematics.
-Oh, yeah.
473
00:27:29,116 --> 00:27:32,408
It's amazing what we can tell
from the human stride.
474
00:27:32,627 --> 00:27:37,632
Personality, intention,
pathology, criminality.
475
00:27:37,809 --> 00:27:41,066
All from scrutinizing one's gait.
476
00:27:42,658 --> 00:27:44,119
Yeah.
477
00:27:44,288 --> 00:27:46,118
I gotta go.
478
00:27:53,232 --> 00:27:54,694
Hey.
479
00:27:57,746 --> 00:27:59,077
Thank you.
480
00:28:06,648 --> 00:28:08,395
How you doing?
481
00:28:11,120 --> 00:28:14,746
I've been walking
up and down these aisles.
482
00:28:16,219 --> 00:28:18,632
Looking at these old men.
483
00:28:19,103 --> 00:28:21,433
These great...
484
00:28:21,611 --> 00:28:24,321
...and terrible old men.
485
00:28:25,038 --> 00:28:26,916
And thinking...
486
00:28:27,462 --> 00:28:32,764
...prosperous, free and democratic
Saudi Arabia. Something to wish for.
487
00:28:33,815 --> 00:28:36,311
But the men on this plane...
488
00:28:36,490 --> 00:28:40,496
...spent the better part of the late
20th century trying to play God...
489
00:28:40,670 --> 00:28:42,666
...in other countries.
490
00:28:43,135 --> 00:28:45,632
And the regimes they anointed...
491
00:28:45,810 --> 00:28:48,354
...are the ones that haunt us today.
492
00:28:50,993 --> 00:28:54,833
Yeah, I'm not making
much progress with the eulogy.
493
00:28:58,558 --> 00:29:01,518
Did you ever meet President Lassiter?
494
00:29:01,693 --> 00:29:03,024
No.
495
00:29:03,197 --> 00:29:04,825
He was an arrogant bastard.
496
00:29:04,994 --> 00:29:07,455
Pompous, high and mighty know-it-all.
497
00:29:07,628 --> 00:29:10,338
He used to call me
in the middle of the night...
498
00:29:10,511 --> 00:29:15,433
...to pontificate on whatever
president had a birthday that week.
499
00:29:17,324 --> 00:29:21,164
When we were elected, I really thought
we were gonna own the place.
500
00:29:21,336 --> 00:29:23,797
Do it differently. Better.
501
00:29:24,973 --> 00:29:27,433
Now I realize the men on this plane...
502
00:29:27,606 --> 00:29:29,317
...are the only others...
503
00:29:29,486 --> 00:29:33,493
...who have been there before
and really know.
504
00:29:36,257 --> 00:29:38,884
I wish that I'd taken more of his calls.
505
00:29:39,852 --> 00:29:41,765
Sir, it's Leo.
506
00:29:58,492 --> 00:30:00,739
-Hey.
-Did Walken make it on board?
507
00:30:00,917 --> 00:30:03,377
They broke the mold on that one.
What do you got?
508
00:30:03,550 --> 00:30:07,222
Dhahran's quiet. But there's been
an outbreak of fighting in Riyadh.
509
00:30:07,395 --> 00:30:08,726
How serious?
510
00:30:08,899 --> 00:30:12,525
Bunch of imams throwing stones.
A number of people were injured.
511
00:30:12,745 --> 00:30:15,288
And they found Strasser,the guy at the embassy.
512
00:30:16,255 --> 00:30:18,466
Says Arujunah's a true reformer.
513
00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:22,020
A believer in checks-and-balancesdemocracy.
514
00:30:22,190 --> 00:30:24,603
Wouldn't lie about
chopping down cherry trees.
515
00:30:24,782 --> 00:30:26,778
That's the gist.
516
00:30:27,457 --> 00:30:28,788
Okay.
517
00:30:28,961 --> 00:30:32,004
Tell Alexander I want the
Truman Battle Group moved to the Gulf.
518
00:30:32,179 --> 00:30:33,926
And set up a call with Bitar.
519
00:30:35,732 --> 00:30:37,645
-Sir.
-It's time to tell him, Leo.
520
00:30:37,864 --> 00:30:40,990
Real change. Or he can start
looking for a new kingdom.
521
00:30:43,506 --> 00:30:45,967
This is the captain.We are beginning our descent.
522
00:30:46,139 --> 00:30:48,219
Please fasten your seat belts.
523
00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:13,551
-Hello.
-Well, at least you're not singing.
524
00:31:13,724 --> 00:31:15,637
How is it?
525
00:31:15,814 --> 00:31:17,145
Oh, don't ask.
526
00:31:17,569 --> 00:31:19,447
Okay.
527
00:31:19,742 --> 00:31:22,286
-How is it?
-Sad.
528
00:31:23,295 --> 00:31:24,840
It's... .
529
00:31:27,516 --> 00:31:29,513
It's just sad.
530
00:31:38,091 --> 00:31:39,968
Sir, it's Leo.
531
00:31:40,139 --> 00:31:42,135
Yeah. Thanks.
532
00:31:42,730 --> 00:31:44,061
-Yeah.
-Mr. President...
533
00:31:44,235 --> 00:31:47,491
...I'm with Secretary Hutchinson
and General Alexander.
534
00:31:47,662 --> 00:31:51,918
The national guard has started to fan out
around protests in Riyadh and Dhahran.
535
00:31:52,134 --> 00:31:54,047
-Bitar?
-Haven 't been able to reach him.
536
00:31:54,224 --> 00:31:56,387
He's apparentlyon a plane back to Riyadh.
537
00:31:56,899 --> 00:31:59,442
General, I want you to readya peacekeeping mission.
538
00:31:59,615 --> 00:32:04,037
Leo, fax, FedEx, carrier pigeon,
I don't give a damn how...
539
00:32:04,254 --> 00:32:05,966
...but get word to the crown prince.
540
00:32:06,135 --> 00:32:10,356
Any unprovoked use of force and I'm
gonna freeze the sale of all military arms.
541
00:32:10,524 --> 00:32:13,317
We're gonna stop training
his precious national guard.
542
00:32:13,533 --> 00:32:18,883
Tell him if he can use saving American
lives as a pretext for force, so can I.
543
00:32:23,648 --> 00:32:25,775
Did you see all those books?
544
00:32:26,406 --> 00:32:28,867
Do you think Lassiter
actually read Shakespeare?
545
00:32:29,039 --> 00:32:31,369
I would've thought
he was more of a Melville fan.
546
00:32:32,759 --> 00:32:36,349
He called me, you know. When we
all found out about your illness.
547
00:32:37,398 --> 00:32:40,025
-He must have been livid.
-I was livid.
548
00:32:40,198 --> 00:32:43,907
I wanted to call
the White House, to call CNN.
549
00:32:44,671 --> 00:32:47,464
And there was Lassiter
on the phone, telling me to can it.
550
00:32:55,579 --> 00:32:57,826
There's a Wilson quote:
551
00:32:58,003 --> 00:33:02,140
"Is the present war a struggle
for a just and secure peace...
552
00:33:02,308 --> 00:33:04,935
...or for a new balance of power?
553
00:33:05,108 --> 00:33:08,449
There must be
not a balance of power...
554
00:33:08,619 --> 00:33:10,581
...but a community of power.
555
00:33:10,751 --> 00:33:13,426
Not organized rivalries...
556
00:33:13,593 --> 00:33:16,516
...but an organized common peace. "
557
00:33:18,107 --> 00:33:21,399
What the hell. Woodrow Wilson
didn't have all the answers.
558
00:33:21,576 --> 00:33:22,954
No.
559
00:33:23,122 --> 00:33:26,213
Neither did Lassiter, God knows.
560
00:33:26,382 --> 00:33:28,593
And then again...
561
00:33:28,765 --> 00:33:30,845
...neither did I.
562
00:33:31,607 --> 00:33:34,234
But, at least at the end...
563
00:33:34,407 --> 00:33:37,498
...we were all
asking the right questions.
564
00:33:51,250 --> 00:33:52,878
-Hey, Glen.
-Mr. President.
565
00:33:53,048 --> 00:33:56,673
-Please.
-Ms. Libby's looking for you.
566
00:33:57,060 --> 00:33:59,556
-Is this gonna bother you?
-Not at all.
567
00:33:59,735 --> 00:34:02,778
World's certainly turned upside down
since Owen Lassiter's time.
568
00:34:02,953 --> 00:34:04,367
True enough.
569
00:34:04,583 --> 00:34:08,090
Went on a trip to China with him
one time. We ate dinner in Beijing.
570
00:34:08,261 --> 00:34:10,258
We couldn't find a bathroom.
571
00:34:10,435 --> 00:34:13,811
Talk about yellow peril.
The two of us are out in the bushes...
572
00:34:13,987 --> 00:34:17,695
...and Owen Lassiter's reciting
Lincoln's second State of the Union.
573
00:34:17,874 --> 00:34:23,128
"The dogmas of the quiet past
are inadequate to the stormy present. "
574
00:34:23,475 --> 00:34:25,436
-Something like that.
-Yeah.
575
00:34:26,944 --> 00:34:29,904
I lost touch with him toward the end.
576
00:34:30,204 --> 00:34:35,720
He started making all those strange trips
to nonsense places. Old battlefields.
577
00:34:37,058 --> 00:34:41,480
But I can't help wonder how he'd
react to the situation in Riyadh.
578
00:34:44,498 --> 00:34:46,126
Me too.
579
00:34:47,173 --> 00:34:49,086
I'll catch up with you, Glen.
580
00:34:51,728 --> 00:34:56,198
The more immediate concern is for the200 men and women in the compound...
581
00:34:56,368 --> 00:35:00,076
...a number of whom are expatriatesfrom Britain, France....
582
00:35:03,097 --> 00:35:06,306
-How's it going with Grant and Lee?
-They're gonna hold a ceremony.
583
00:35:06,482 --> 00:35:09,406
-Maybe even a 21 -musket salute.
-You reached an agreement?
584
00:35:09,575 --> 00:35:11,905
The Union will stand.
585
00:35:12,751 --> 00:35:15,212
Freedom, and the right
to assemble for one and all.
586
00:35:15,426 --> 00:35:18,005
Not if the man from DARPA
has anything to do with it.
587
00:35:18,185 --> 00:35:20,515
-DARPA.
-They're sifting through medical records.
588
00:35:20,692 --> 00:35:22,190
Just trying to protect you.
589
00:35:22,364 --> 00:35:25,407
Haven't you had enough trouble
haggling over the Bill of Rights?
590
00:35:25,582 --> 00:35:27,378
Does the press have the story?
591
00:35:27,547 --> 00:35:29,710
-The mind-control story.
-Yeah.
592
00:35:29,887 --> 00:35:32,645
So the story breaks,
the public has the same reaction.
593
00:35:32,813 --> 00:35:35,820
-No more mind control, no more sifting.
-No more gait scrutiny.
594
00:35:35,990 --> 00:35:37,951
Democracy in action.
You gotta love it.
595
00:35:38,163 --> 00:35:41,289
-So we'd need to send in 30,000 troops?
-Initially.
596
00:35:41,465 --> 00:35:44,306
And if this were to move
beyond peacekeeping?
597
00:35:45,268 --> 00:35:49,024
Yeah, okay. I'll be down
in a minute. Is it important?
598
00:35:50,075 --> 00:35:53,165
-No.
-Not really. No.
599
00:36:03,616 --> 00:36:05,030
Hi, Dad.
600
00:36:05,204 --> 00:36:06,785
Mal, what are you doing here?
601
00:36:07,963 --> 00:36:10,804
I have something to tell you.
It's why I've been late.
602
00:36:10,972 --> 00:36:13,053
-I just didn't wanna--
-You all right?
603
00:36:13,271 --> 00:36:14,685
Yeah.
604
00:36:16,197 --> 00:36:18,657
No. Not really.
605
00:36:21,755 --> 00:36:23,918
It's hard for me...
606
00:36:24,096 --> 00:36:28,233
...because of who you are, we are.
607
00:36:30,198 --> 00:36:33,455
-Oh, I hate this. Can I just go?
-I don't think so.
608
00:36:34,879 --> 00:36:36,674
Mom's getting remarried.
609
00:36:37,930 --> 00:36:39,558
I know that.
610
00:36:40,020 --> 00:36:42,266
-You know that?
-She called me.
611
00:36:42,778 --> 00:36:46,535
-She called you? She said she didn't.
-Mal, I appreciate the concern.
612
00:36:46,707 --> 00:36:48,502
I'm fine.
613
00:36:49,048 --> 00:36:51,626
-See, I knew it.
-Knew what?
614
00:36:52,057 --> 00:36:54,636
I just didn't want you to hear it.
615
00:36:55,024 --> 00:36:56,771
I didn't want you to be alone
when you heard.
616
00:36:57,365 --> 00:36:59,160
It's okay.
617
00:37:00,374 --> 00:37:03,631
I'm just sorry we haven't had
more time together.
618
00:37:03,801 --> 00:37:06,298
I thought we'd have
a nice night at the theater...
619
00:37:06,476 --> 00:37:09,769
...but we got this little problem
in the Middle East.
620
00:37:54,248 --> 00:37:58,836
Ready. Aim. Fire.
621
00:37:59,055 --> 00:38:02,146
Ready. Aim. Fire.
622
00:38:02,733 --> 00:38:06,608
Ready. Aim. Fire.
623
00:38:10,089 --> 00:38:12,668
Mr. President,
I want to thank you for coming.
624
00:38:12,847 --> 00:38:15,010
Of course I came, Libby.
625
00:38:15,188 --> 00:38:17,185
Owen would have loved the eulogy.
626
00:38:17,361 --> 00:38:19,073
Who wrote it?
627
00:38:19,576 --> 00:38:24,248
The humor, so dry and--
And sad.
628
00:38:25,469 --> 00:38:28,346
I always thought you detested him.
629
00:38:29,565 --> 00:38:31,895
That's a long time ago.
630
00:38:32,993 --> 00:38:37,213
I know he called you just the other day,
but you didn't call him back.
631
00:38:37,841 --> 00:38:40,004
Several times.
632
00:38:40,349 --> 00:38:44,140
But you never called him back.
633
00:38:52,929 --> 00:38:57,267
When we left the White House,
I thought we'd have some time together.
634
00:38:57,443 --> 00:38:59,024
His job was done.
635
00:38:59,198 --> 00:39:01,991
But he took to traveling.
636
00:39:03,043 --> 00:39:07,715
To Korea, to the Philippines,
to Vietnam...
637
00:39:07,892 --> 00:39:09,353
...and to Europe.
638
00:39:09,564 --> 00:39:13,320
Any spot where American
boys had shed blood.
639
00:39:14,286 --> 00:39:16,414
Even the Civil War.
640
00:39:17,128 --> 00:39:18,840
He'd fill a jar...
641
00:39:19,594 --> 00:39:22,138
...come back to this room...
642
00:39:22,311 --> 00:39:24,938
...this oval room he'd had built.
643
00:39:26,282 --> 00:39:28,445
He'd come here to think.
644
00:39:28,873 --> 00:39:33,461
He took to eating here
and sleeping here.
645
00:39:34,390 --> 00:39:36,933
Even after the operation.
646
00:39:38,778 --> 00:39:42,201
And when they came,
they found him here.
647
00:39:45,507 --> 00:39:48,265
-Battlefields.
-Yes.
648
00:39:48,976 --> 00:39:51,020
I wanted you to come.
649
00:39:52,822 --> 00:39:55,115
Because he left this for you.
650
00:39:57,085 --> 00:39:58,630
Thank you.
651
00:40:13,051 --> 00:40:15,677
"We owe it to ourselves
to stand in this dirt...
652
00:40:15,851 --> 00:40:18,977
...as survivors and witnesses.
653
00:40:19,153 --> 00:40:21,114
We have to cure
ourselves of the itch...
654
00:40:21,284 --> 00:40:24,910
...for the absolute knowledge
or power or right.
655
00:40:25,088 --> 00:40:28,048
We have to close the distance
between the push-button order...
656
00:40:28,222 --> 00:40:29,803
...and the human act.
657
00:40:29,978 --> 00:40:31,855
We have to touch people. "
658
00:40:32,026 --> 00:40:34,106
Sir, it's Leo.
659
00:40:35,954 --> 00:40:39,045
-Did you talk to the crown prince?
-We're too late, sir.
660
00:40:39,214 --> 00:40:42,555
A protester in Riyadh
fired on the national guard.
661
00:40:42,725 --> 00:40:46,184
-There was tear gas, more gunfire.
-A protester fired?
662
00:40:46,361 --> 00:40:49,369
We think a member of thenational guard dressed as a protester.
663
00:40:49,538 --> 00:40:51,749
-Are there casualties?
-Twenty, 30.
664
00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:54,048
Probably hundreds morein the aftermath.

00:40:54,219 --> 00:40:57,511
-Our people are safe?
-The crowds in Dhahran have dispersed.
666
00:40:57,688 --> 00:41:00,149
Riyadh, Jiddah, it's all breaking up.
667
00:41:00,321 --> 00:41:02,068
And the leaders of the protest.
668
00:41:02,244 --> 00:41:04,822
-Arujunah?
-No.
669
00:41:07,134 --> 00:41:11,187
-Okay.
-I guess this changes things.
670
00:41:11,564 --> 00:41:14,107
