Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:07,424 --> 00:00:08,835
Previously on The West Wing:
2
00:00:09,051 --> 00:00:11,257
I'm gonna go and put
some water on my face.
3
00:00:11,428 --> 00:00:14,429
You're sad. And you're angry.
And you're not warm.
4
00:00:14,598 --> 00:00:17,884
- My water broke.
- You'll see one of your kids in 15 minutes.
5
00:00:18,060 --> 00:00:20,218
Bookbag's been taken.
I have an agent down.
6
00:00:20,395 --> 00:00:22,055
We're black. Go to black.
7
00:00:22,231 --> 00:00:26,311
Zoey Bartlet is missing,
and there's a dead agent at the scene.
8
00:00:38,789 --> 00:00:41,244
My husband's been having
some empty-nest problems.
9
00:00:41,416 --> 00:00:43,742
Jerry's been sighing all week.
Has the president?
10
00:00:43,919 --> 00:00:47,454
Jed's been sighing. He's been sighing
in all kinds of dead languages.
11
00:00:47,673 --> 00:00:49,665
Those pearls really are beautiful.
12
00:00:49,842 --> 00:00:51,384
Thank you. Yeah.
13
00:00:51,552 --> 00:00:54,007
The men are not taking this very well.
14
00:00:54,221 --> 00:00:57,341
Fellas, you know, we're all having
a good time over here.
15
00:00:57,516 --> 00:01:00,185
We're having a good time here too.
16
00:01:00,644 --> 00:01:02,352
Doing what?
17
00:01:02,604 --> 00:01:07,480
Talking about the too rapid passage
of time and, you know, grieving.
18
00:01:07,693 --> 00:01:09,851
He's gonna schedule nine
White House visits...
19
00:01:10,028 --> 00:01:13,611
...to France over the next three months.
He's accepting every invitation.
20
00:01:13,782 --> 00:01:16,154
He's gonna be a judge
at the Cannes Film Festival.
21
00:01:16,368 --> 00:01:18,028
I told you it was this one.
22
00:01:18,412 --> 00:01:20,570
The day we brought her home
from the hospital.
23
00:01:20,747 --> 00:01:23,784
Tell me that wasn't a month ago.
What is she doing graduating...
24
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:26,960
...summa cum laude from something.
- Remember the ride home?
25
00:01:27,171 --> 00:01:28,713
Scariest drive of your life.
26
00:01:28,881 --> 00:01:32,665
Seven miles an hour with
the hazard lights on all the way home.
27
00:01:33,969 --> 00:01:36,507
From what I remembered,
did we have baby seats then...
28
00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:38,471
...or did we just hold on very tight?
29
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:39,921
Yeah, we had the... .
30
00:01:40,100 --> 00:01:42,769
Hey, honey, were there baby seats
when Jackie was born?
31
00:01:42,936 --> 00:01:46,352
Yes, of course there were. There
were baby seats, indoor plumbing.
32
00:01:46,523 --> 00:01:49,690
That was 21 years ago. I can't remember
our hotel from last night.
33
00:01:49,902 --> 00:01:53,021
I wore all of my jewelry to the hospital
when George was born.
34
00:01:53,238 --> 00:01:55,563
- I don't know why.
- To show off.
35
00:03:06,645 --> 00:03:09,183
- Okay, Harbor Patrol's got the Potomac?
- Yes, sir.
36
00:03:09,398 --> 00:03:12,103
- Forensics!
- Wes, what the hell is going on?
37
00:03:12,276 --> 00:03:14,897
- She's been taken.
- What are you talking about?
38
00:03:15,112 --> 00:03:16,571
- How many?
- 188, 24 stat!
39
00:03:16,738 --> 00:03:19,027
- What are you talking about?
- Zoey's been taken.
40
00:03:19,199 --> 00:03:21,156
We had her in the bathroom.
She's gone.
41
00:03:21,326 --> 00:03:22,655
- She's messing with you.
- No.
42
00:03:22,828 --> 00:03:25,663
- Local news over there.
- Doesn't matter! We move them away.
43
00:03:25,831 --> 00:03:27,242
She's messing with you.
44
00:03:27,416 --> 00:03:29,622
She's at a Baskin-Robbins
with her girlfriends.
45
00:03:29,793 --> 00:03:32,829
- You gotta call these people off.
- They shot one of my agents.
46
00:03:33,005 --> 00:03:36,456
Molly's dead. They shot Molly.
47
00:03:37,801 --> 00:03:39,082
Molly's dead?
48
00:03:41,263 --> 00:03:42,508
- They couldn't...
- Charlie.
49
00:03:42,723 --> 00:03:44,680
- Couldn't have gotten far.
- Stay here.
50
00:03:44,850 --> 00:03:47,305
- My car's around the corner.
- We need to stay here.
51
00:03:47,477 --> 00:03:49,221
They're gonna need to talk to us.
52
00:03:49,438 --> 00:03:50,849
Get off of me!
53
00:03:51,064 --> 00:03:53,306
They've already dropped a net
on the city.
54
00:03:53,483 --> 00:03:56,354
They've already dropped a net.
They aren't getting anywhere.
55
00:03:56,528 --> 00:03:59,446
We were the last people
to see her go in the club.
56
00:03:59,615 --> 00:04:02,188
They're gonna wanna have
a word with us.
57
00:04:02,367 --> 00:04:05,701
Metro Police have roadblocks around
Georgetown. They've closed down...
58
00:04:05,913 --> 00:04:08,285
...the Key Bridge, Memorial Bridge
and Route 29.
59
00:04:08,457 --> 00:04:10,366
FBI's putting up
a command post at OEOB?
60
00:04:10,542 --> 00:04:12,998
- Yes.
- CIA and Diplomatic Security are briefed?
61
00:04:13,212 --> 00:04:16,047
Right now, and they're wired
to the Ops Center.
62
00:04:16,465 --> 00:04:17,959
We're gonna begin questioning...
63
00:04:18,133 --> 00:04:21,716
Do you have my older daughters?
Do you have Ellie and Elizabeth?
64
00:04:21,887 --> 00:04:23,167
Yes, sir.
65
00:04:28,519 --> 00:04:30,345
There's no need to keep this a secret.
66
00:04:30,521 --> 00:04:32,809
We wanna get it out there
quickly and massively.
67
00:04:32,981 --> 00:04:35,816
- Mike, turn the lights on?
- Secret Service put themselves...
68
00:04:35,984 --> 00:04:38,985
...on the police frequencies,
so anyone with a scanner has it.
69
00:04:39,154 --> 00:04:41,728
Major, I need C.J. Cregg.
Are we being attacked?
70
00:04:41,949 --> 00:04:43,858
- We don't know.
- Tell me what you think.
71
00:04:44,076 --> 00:04:47,112
I think we're being attacked,
but this is gonna take some time.
72
00:04:47,329 --> 00:04:48,989
- How much?
- Forty-five minutes...
73
00:04:49,206 --> 00:04:52,622
...to assemble and evaluate known
threats. An hour to crosscheck...
74
00:04:52,835 --> 00:04:54,542
...with the Secret Service list.
75
00:04:54,711 --> 00:04:57,831
- Two hours for interviews at the club.
- Related incidents?
76
00:04:58,006 --> 00:05:01,506
We don't believe the three high-profile
abductions last week are related.
77
00:05:01,677 --> 00:05:04,927
- Mexican CEO, two DEA agents in Peru.
- Patterns?
78
00:05:05,097 --> 00:05:07,766
INS says three separate groups
of Qumari nationals...
79
00:05:07,933 --> 00:05:09,972
...17 people all together,
flew back today.
80
00:05:10,143 --> 00:05:13,180
Eleven out of JFK
and six out of Dulles...
81
00:05:13,355 --> 00:05:16,771
...and traffic lights went out
at Wisconsin and M four minutes...
82
00:05:16,942 --> 00:05:20,643
...after Wes Davis called in to the AOP.
- What is it they're gonna want?
83
00:05:20,904 --> 00:05:24,320
Bahji prisoners freed? We get out
of Qumar? We get out of Kundu?
84
00:05:24,491 --> 00:05:25,820
They'll let us know, sir.
85
00:05:25,993 --> 00:05:28,744
- In a typical kidnapping...
- It's not a typical kidnapping.
86
00:05:28,954 --> 00:05:30,413
Wait. Nancy, what did you say?
87
00:05:30,581 --> 00:05:34,115
Is there anyone here who thinks
this sounds like a typical kidnapping?
88
00:05:34,334 --> 00:05:36,042
Could it have been more low-tech?
89
00:05:36,670 --> 00:05:39,790
A plan based on knowing when
someone needs to use the bathroom?
90
00:05:39,965 --> 00:05:43,132
- 17 Qumari nationals leave the country?
- Out of 10,000 in the U.S.
91
00:05:43,302 --> 00:05:45,757
Every car rental agency
is out of vans and U-Hauls?
92
00:05:45,929 --> 00:05:49,630
It's graduation weekend. Every kid
in the mid-Atlantic is moving right now.
93
00:05:49,808 --> 00:05:51,183
We shut down the airports.
94
00:05:51,393 --> 00:05:54,596
Either they didn't know we were gonna
do that, or they didn't care.
95
00:05:54,771 --> 00:05:58,816
Either way, Mike, does this seem
like a James Bond operation to you?
96
00:05:58,984 --> 00:06:02,318
- I don't know what it is yet.
- I wanna stop hearing that answer soon.
97
00:06:02,529 --> 00:06:04,854
Union Station too?
We shut down Union Station?
98
00:06:05,073 --> 00:06:06,188
Yes, sir.
99
00:06:07,910 --> 00:06:09,108
I'm gonna check on Abbey.
100
00:06:11,955 --> 00:06:15,739
Leo, whoever took her
doesn't know what they're doing.
101
00:06:16,126 --> 00:06:21,333
It was an absurd kidnapping.
She's not gonna turn up in a Bahji camp.
102
00:06:21,507 --> 00:06:23,665
She'll turn up in the back
of a muffler shop.
103
00:06:23,884 --> 00:06:24,963
Well, I'm looking...
104
00:06:25,135 --> 00:06:28,800
...at Syria moving 20,000 troops
closer to Lebanon today...
105
00:06:28,972 --> 00:06:32,507
...and Pakistan testing
a long-range missile...
106
00:06:32,684 --> 00:06:34,392
...so I'm not sure about that.
107
00:06:36,647 --> 00:06:39,813
I was there at the arboretum,
but I didn't see her.
108
00:06:39,983 --> 00:06:42,818
- I don't understand.
- This part doesn't matter.
109
00:06:42,986 --> 00:06:46,486
- We don't know what matters.
- You're right.
110
00:06:46,657 --> 00:06:49,574
I'm sorry.
We went there together...
111
00:06:49,743 --> 00:06:51,486
...we hopped the wall...
112
00:06:51,662 --> 00:06:55,410
...and when we realized that Zoey was
also there, I stayed with Agent Reed.
113
00:06:55,624 --> 00:06:58,993
We buried a bottle of champagne
out there three and a half years ago...
114
00:06:59,169 --> 00:07:01,541
...to celebrate graduation.
- Where's"out there"?
115
00:07:01,713 --> 00:07:04,714
- At a spot in the Asian garden.
- How much champagne she have?
116
00:07:04,883 --> 00:07:06,876
Maybe a third of the bottle.
I don't know.
117
00:07:07,052 --> 00:07:10,836
Charlie, there was no evidence
of a struggle at the club. None.
118
00:07:11,014 --> 00:07:14,218
All she had to do was press a panic
button, and she didn't do that.
119
00:07:14,393 --> 00:07:17,762
I found it on the ground. It's graduation
night. She's going to France.
120
00:07:17,980 --> 00:07:21,562
They didn't try anything?
Vicodin, Valium, ecstasy?
121
00:07:21,984 --> 00:07:23,526
Ecstasy.
122
00:07:23,694 --> 00:07:25,603
- Jean-Paul!
- You need to sit down, son!
123
00:07:25,779 --> 00:07:27,321
Hey.
124
00:07:29,950 --> 00:07:33,651
She said you wanted her to take ecstasy
with you. Did you give some to her?
125
00:07:33,871 --> 00:07:36,029
- He's out of it.
- Did you give her ecstasy?
126
00:07:36,206 --> 00:07:37,237
Just tell me!
127
00:07:37,416 --> 00:07:40,666
Wait, wait. This guy isn't... .
Look at me for a second.
128
00:07:40,878 --> 00:07:44,460
Yeah, this guy isn't high on X.
Get me a paramedic!
129
00:07:44,673 --> 00:07:48,172
What's your dealer's name, huh?
Who gave this to you? Give me a name.
130
00:07:48,385 --> 00:07:50,176
Listen to me. You're gonna be fine.
131
00:07:50,345 --> 00:07:52,836
You are the key witness
to the end of the world.
132
00:07:53,265 --> 00:07:55,008
Come on, we're gonna keep you alive.
133
00:07:55,184 --> 00:07:57,675
You have to tell me
who gave this to you.
134
00:07:57,895 --> 00:08:00,018
- What's wrong with him?
- I don't give a damn.
135
00:08:00,189 --> 00:08:03,059
- Get a blood sample to the lab.
- Yes, sir.
136
00:08:06,445 --> 00:08:09,565
- All right, you guys are done.
- Listen, I... .
137
00:08:10,073 --> 00:08:11,865
I don't know what to say about Molly.
138
00:08:12,075 --> 00:08:15,990
Go back to the White House, Josh.
Stand your post.
139
00:08:26,715 --> 00:08:30,084
No law-enforcement issues from
the podium. Refer them to the FBI.
140
00:08:30,260 --> 00:08:32,668
Crime scene's still secured.
No press on the scene.
141
00:08:32,846 --> 00:08:35,384
- I heard there was.
- It was local news at the party.
142
00:08:35,849 --> 00:08:37,842
- C.J. Excuse me, Carol.
- Yes, sir.
143
00:08:38,018 --> 00:08:41,102
Do not get into a discussion
of the president's emotional state.
144
00:08:41,271 --> 00:08:43,809
Pivot whatever you get
to commander in chief.
145
00:08:44,024 --> 00:08:45,933
Congressional leadership's
been notified.
146
00:08:46,109 --> 00:08:48,731
- We'll have statements in an hour.
- Carol gave me that.
147
00:08:48,904 --> 00:08:51,229
We're in control.
The government is functioning.
148
00:08:51,406 --> 00:08:54,443
This is the most important
press conference of your life.
149
00:08:56,537 --> 00:08:58,659
- Has anyone heard from Toby?
- You haven't?
150
00:08:58,830 --> 00:09:01,784
I saw him this morning,
then he went with Andy to the house.
151
00:09:01,959 --> 00:09:05,043
I have to write a statement,
and I don't know where to start.
152
00:09:05,212 --> 00:09:06,706
- He'll answer his page.
- Listen.
153
00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:08,374
- Yeah.
- Nothing.
154
00:09:08,549 --> 00:09:10,209
What?
155
00:09:10,384 --> 00:09:13,089
- There's no vice president.
- What's that to do with this?
156
00:09:13,262 --> 00:09:17,840
Do we expect him to get a call and say,
"We don't negotiate with terrorists"?
157
00:09:18,016 --> 00:09:19,641
One step at a time.
158
00:09:19,852 --> 00:09:22,307
- Good luck.
- Thanks.
159
00:09:23,438 --> 00:09:25,811
- C.J.
- C.J.
160
00:09:29,528 --> 00:09:33,526
At 11:21 p.m., Special Agent Wesley
Davis of the U.S. Secret Service...
161
00:09:33,699 --> 00:09:35,526
...called in an AOP, which means:
162
00:09:35,701 --> 00:09:38,073
-"Attack on the principal."
- C.J.
163
00:09:39,830 --> 00:09:43,448
As I said, they're obviously examining
any tape from security cameras...
164
00:09:43,625 --> 00:09:47,243
...from the club, but we don't have
a photograph of what she was wearing.
165
00:09:47,421 --> 00:09:50,422
I'm gonna repeat again
what witnesses have told us.
166
00:09:50,591 --> 00:09:54,256
Black pants, black high-heeled boots,
a black tank top over a red tank top...
167
00:09:55,637 --> 00:09:59,089
...which makes it appear, from a
distance, the black top has red piping.
168
00:09:59,266 --> 00:10:02,433
Walking in the club, she was wearing
a multicolored silk jacket...
169
00:10:02,644 --> 00:10:04,886
...but it appears
she may have taken it off.
170
00:10:05,105 --> 00:10:07,940
I know this feed is being carried live
by all the networks.
171
00:10:08,108 --> 00:10:10,729
I wanna remind the directors
to keep the 800 number...
172
00:10:10,944 --> 00:10:14,562
...to keep the tip line bannered
on your air, please. Two more questions.
173
00:10:14,823 --> 00:10:17,575
Surely he's not reacting
as if this is someone else's kid?
174
00:10:17,743 --> 00:10:19,534
Is there a concern she's being raped?
175
00:10:20,454 --> 00:10:22,992
Lyle, for the sake of a number
of distraught people...
176
00:10:23,165 --> 00:10:26,498
...I ask you not to publicly speculate.
Katie, then I've gotta go.
177
00:10:26,668 --> 00:10:28,910
Any concern that this could
exacerbate his MS?
178
00:10:29,087 --> 00:10:31,210
No. Thank you.
I'll brief again in an hour.
179
00:10:31,381 --> 00:10:33,789
When will you release the name
of the agent?
180
00:10:33,967 --> 00:10:35,877
As soon as we can locate her family.
181
00:10:36,094 --> 00:10:37,754
- C.J.
- C.J.
182
00:10:40,891 --> 00:10:43,382
- Where have you been?
- All of Northwest is shut down.
183
00:10:43,560 --> 00:10:46,265
Pennsylvania Avenue and Connecticut
Avenue are shut down.
184
00:10:46,438 --> 00:10:50,222
I wouldn't be surprised if Pennsylvania
and Connecticut were shut down.
185
00:10:50,442 --> 00:10:54,107
There are no cabs. The Metro's closed.
Metro Police took me to 18th Street.
186
00:10:54,279 --> 00:10:57,031
It took me 15 minutes
to get in with a hard pass.
187
00:10:57,574 --> 00:10:58,605
Where have you been?
188
00:10:58,784 --> 00:11:00,942
- I won't repeat that. Got a statement?
- Here.
189
00:11:01,161 --> 00:11:03,237
You have 100 messages.
How do you want them?
190
00:11:03,413 --> 00:11:04,742
In your hand for a moment.
191
00:11:04,957 --> 00:11:08,539
"In this difficult time, we are grateful
for the support of the American..."
192
00:11:08,710 --> 00:11:10,703
We're not asking for fruit.
It's gotta say:
193
00:11:10,921 --> 00:11:13,044
"Our youngest daughter
has been abducted.
194
00:11:13,215 --> 00:11:17,260
She will be found, brought home safely,
and her abductors caught and punished."
195
00:11:17,469 --> 00:11:19,094
"While we work for her return...
196
00:11:19,304 --> 00:11:22,969
...the world community must know
this country will not be taken hostage...
197
00:11:23,141 --> 00:11:26,427
...that our efforts toward peace
and freedom continue unabated."
198
00:11:26,603 --> 00:11:28,145
Good.
199
00:11:32,901 --> 00:11:34,858
- How is he?
- I haven't seen him.
200
00:11:35,028 --> 00:11:36,986
- What about Abbey?
- Somebody's looking.
201
00:11:37,197 --> 00:11:40,282
- They want a doctor to see him.
- He won't let them sedate him.
202
00:11:40,450 --> 00:11:42,657
It's a waste of time.
I don't want that leaked.
203
00:11:42,828 --> 00:11:44,619
- It's not for a sedative.
- MS?
204
00:11:44,788 --> 00:11:46,199
Yeah.
205
00:11:48,876 --> 00:11:51,117
Where's Leo on the stock exchange?
206
00:11:51,295 --> 00:11:54,580
We haven't had time to talk,
but if we don't have her by 6...
207
00:11:54,756 --> 00:11:58,457
...we gotta recommend that Leo instruct
the Treasury to suspend trading.
208
00:11:58,677 --> 00:12:02,342
That the president instruct the Treasury.
There is no mechanism, none.
209
00:12:02,556 --> 00:12:04,762
There is no mechanism
for presidential recusal.
210
00:12:04,933 --> 00:12:07,305
Leo can't give an order
to the Treasury secretary.
211
00:12:07,477 --> 00:12:10,562
- The Treasury secretary can't follow it.
- All right.
212
00:12:10,731 --> 00:12:13,138
I heard the briefing on the radio.
You did great.
213
00:12:13,358 --> 00:12:18,186
For the rest of the night, they get their
information from us, not the agencies.
214
00:12:18,405 --> 00:12:20,065
- Josh?
- I've started the calls.
215
00:12:20,282 --> 00:12:23,900
535 congressmen and senators
you've gotta call. You'll need a posse.
216
00:12:24,119 --> 00:12:27,570
State calls the ambassadors.
Will, sit in on all the meetings tonight...
217
00:12:27,748 --> 00:12:32,990
...in the counsel's office, report to Josh
quickly. He won't have time for a memo.
218
00:12:33,587 --> 00:12:35,496
Well, let's go.
219
00:12:36,048 --> 00:12:38,040
Oh, hey... .
220
00:12:38,258 --> 00:12:39,717
This is... .
221
00:12:41,345 --> 00:12:44,346
By the way, this is... .
222
00:12:45,516 --> 00:12:46,891
The babies were born.
223
00:12:47,976 --> 00:12:50,598
- What babies?
- The twins.
224
00:12:50,771 --> 00:12:53,344
Andy had the babies.
225
00:12:54,608 --> 00:12:57,064
- That's where I was. At the hospital.
- Oh, my God.
226
00:12:57,277 --> 00:12:58,902
- Are you kidding?
- No.
227
00:12:59,112 --> 00:13:01,401
- It just happened 10 days early.
- Are they okay?
228
00:13:01,573 --> 00:13:05,571
Yeah, they're great.
Six pounds, 1 ounce. Each.
229
00:13:06,703 --> 00:13:08,162
God.
230
00:13:10,165 --> 00:13:12,122
Mazel tov, Toby.
231
00:13:12,334 --> 00:13:14,576
- Mazel tov.
- Toby.
232
00:13:15,128 --> 00:13:17,287
No, wait, wait.
Do they have names?
233
00:13:17,506 --> 00:13:20,791
The boy does. He's named
after Andy's grandfather.
234
00:13:21,009 --> 00:13:22,504
What's his name?
235
00:13:22,678 --> 00:13:24,717
- Huck.
- Huck.
236
00:13:24,930 --> 00:13:28,299
What a great name for a boy.
237
00:13:31,395 --> 00:13:33,304
- We've gotta get back to work.
- Yeah.
238
00:13:33,522 --> 00:13:35,645
- Yeah.
- Toby... .
239
00:13:39,152 --> 00:13:41,062
Okay. Okay.
240
00:13:54,710 --> 00:13:56,537
This is high. I'm a little concerned.
241
00:13:56,753 --> 00:13:58,663
You and me both.
242
00:13:58,881 --> 00:14:01,668
Mr. President, they've located
Molly O'Connor's parents.
243
00:14:01,884 --> 00:14:03,378
They're on the phone now.
244
00:14:13,854 --> 00:14:15,562
How many people are in the building?
245
00:14:15,731 --> 00:14:17,355
- Including press?
- Not including.
246
00:14:17,524 --> 00:14:19,683
Not many. Anyone who left town
can't get back.
247
00:14:19,860 --> 00:14:23,229
- Why did people leave town?
- It's the weekend. They went crazy.
248
00:14:23,405 --> 00:14:25,777
- We'll need people.
- Do you know how many faxes...
249
00:14:25,949 --> 00:14:29,152
...we've gotten and how many of them
are from your insane groupies?
250
00:14:29,328 --> 00:14:32,282
The Lyman ho's have chosen this time
to let you know via fax:
251
00:14:32,456 --> 00:14:35,706
"Should you need physical
comfort during this horrible time... ."
252
00:14:35,876 --> 00:14:39,043
Read that. Do you like that?
Is that what turns you on, you sicky?
253
00:14:39,213 --> 00:14:41,538
- I didn't write this.
- They must sense it in you.
254
00:14:41,715 --> 00:14:43,873
- What are the others?
- I just picked them up.
255
00:14:44,051 --> 00:14:46,423
It's more thoughts and prayers,
good wishes.
256
00:14:46,595 --> 00:14:48,504
- That's nice.
- And bus-station skanks.
257
00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:50,424
Do you need help with these calls?
258
00:14:50,599 --> 00:14:53,007
Yeah, but you gotta sit
with Babish and his guys.
259
00:14:53,185 --> 00:14:56,388
Spreklettes of Ames, lowa, hope
we don't exploit this to make...
260
00:14:56,563 --> 00:14:58,355
...another argument about guns.
261
00:14:58,524 --> 00:15:00,397
The Spreklettes of Ames
have weighed in.
262
00:15:00,567 --> 00:15:02,939
- The speechwriting interns are here.
- They got in?
263
00:15:03,111 --> 00:15:05,234
- They've been here.
- On a Saturday night?
264
00:15:05,405 --> 00:15:08,406
- It was a character-building exercise.
- You hear that?
265
00:15:08,575 --> 00:15:10,651
These interns, they can talk
on the phone?
266
00:15:10,827 --> 00:15:11,990
Yeah.
267
00:15:12,162 --> 00:15:14,071
They gotta talk
to congressmen. They'll...
268
00:15:14,248 --> 00:15:16,324
- Hang on.
- They can do it, but you should...
269
00:15:16,542 --> 00:15:19,412
- Hang on.
- What?
270
00:15:20,712 --> 00:15:23,998
This is one tank top
on top of another tank top.
271
00:15:25,217 --> 00:15:27,672
This is a Polaroid of Zoey.
272
00:15:29,304 --> 00:15:31,344
That's a ransom note.
273
00:15:42,526 --> 00:15:44,150
- Sir.
- Blood tests?
274
00:15:44,319 --> 00:15:47,071
They found GHB,
gamma hydroxybutyrate.
275
00:15:47,239 --> 00:15:50,690
It's degreasing solvent mixed
with drain cleaner, and in low doses...
276
00:15:50,868 --> 00:15:54,034
- In low doses, it's a date-rape drug.
- Yes, sir.
277
00:15:54,246 --> 00:15:57,531
- What about the boy?
- He'll be conscious in an hour or so.
278
00:16:03,547 --> 00:16:05,586
Where is it?
279
00:16:06,633 --> 00:16:08,709
This is the translation.
280
00:16:08,886 --> 00:16:10,166
We think this is Zoey?
281
00:16:10,387 --> 00:16:12,878
It's a fax-quality picture,
but the left shoulder...
282
00:16:13,056 --> 00:16:15,263
- Where was it faxed from?
- A Kinko's in Dover.
283
00:16:15,475 --> 00:16:17,801
A security camera
got a partial license plate.
284
00:16:17,978 --> 00:16:22,355
It's a minivan rented to a Shahab Kaleel,
and there's an FBI APB out.
285
00:16:22,524 --> 00:16:26,818
"Release Uzma Kalil, Ahmed Mansour
and Barmak Essa...
286
00:16:26,987 --> 00:16:29,988
...from the Islamabad
maximum-security prison.
287
00:16:30,199 --> 00:16:32,321
The president will announce
on television...
288
00:16:32,492 --> 00:16:35,363
...that the U.S. will abandon
its presence in Qumar."
289
00:16:35,579 --> 00:16:39,529
Now, analysts say Qumar's mufti made a
call for martyrdom operations last week...
290
00:16:39,708 --> 00:16:42,543
...using phrasing almost identical
to the next passage...
291
00:16:42,753 --> 00:16:44,580
...and named those three prisoners.
292
00:16:44,796 --> 00:16:49,423
Two years ago, a Bahji cell kidnapped
the sons of the prime minister of Eritrea...
293
00:16:49,593 --> 00:16:52,926
...in exchange for close
to 100 of their prisoners.
294
00:16:54,306 --> 00:16:55,551
Where are you?
295
00:16:55,724 --> 00:16:58,049
I wanna prepare to attack
the following targets:
296
00:16:58,227 --> 00:17:02,224
The Bahji C3l: Communications,
Command, Control and Intelligence.
297
00:17:02,397 --> 00:17:04,723
I wanna move the C-130s
and the Blackhawks...
298
00:17:04,900 --> 00:17:07,652
...and move the Washington
carrier group into the gulf...
299
00:17:07,819 --> 00:17:11,769
...to strike three Bahji camps in Qumar.
- I believe we can't move yet.
300
00:17:11,949 --> 00:17:14,950
This will escalate.
This will get worse before it gets better.
301
00:17:15,118 --> 00:17:18,155
Sir, that boy's gonna be conscious
in an hour...
302
00:17:18,372 --> 00:17:21,159
...and we have a chance of finding
the dealer once he is.
303
00:17:21,375 --> 00:17:25,704
We're gonna find the dealer, Nancy,
but he's gonna be dead when we do.
304
00:17:29,633 --> 00:17:33,417
- Move the 5th Fleet into the gulf.
- Yes, sir.
305
00:17:41,812 --> 00:17:44,517
No, and I think we should be carefulabout saying that...
306
00:17:44,690 --> 00:17:48,853
... but certainly, it's easy to imagine howthis escalates to a military situation...
307
00:17:49,027 --> 00:17:50,605
... under any number of scenarios.
308
00:17:52,114 --> 00:17:54,106
Thank you, and we'll becoming back to you.
309
00:17:54,283 --> 00:17:57,319
We've been, from time to time, showing you home-movie footage...
310
00:17:57,494 --> 00:17:58,988
... in the corner of our screen.
311
00:17:59,162 --> 00:18:02,496
I don 't have the dates in front of me, but it looks like she can 't...
312
00:18:02,666 --> 00:18:04,374
Huck?
313
00:18:05,002 --> 00:18:06,412
Yeah.
314
00:18:06,587 --> 00:18:08,959
That's nice. I like that.
315
00:18:09,131 --> 00:18:11,123
It's her grandfather's.
316
00:18:12,801 --> 00:18:14,426
Hey. Hey.
317
00:18:14,595 --> 00:18:16,836
The house. What happened?
318
00:18:17,347 --> 00:18:19,007
What happened? Did you propose?
319
00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:22,803
Yeah. We tabled it, though,
because, you know... .
320
00:18:22,978 --> 00:18:25,895
- You had to go to the hospital.
- Yeah.
321
00:18:26,064 --> 00:18:28,353
Was there time to tell her
you bought the house?
322
00:18:28,525 --> 00:18:30,269
Yeah, I told her about the house.
323
00:18:30,485 --> 00:18:32,063
What'd she say?
324
00:18:33,030 --> 00:18:36,944
- This really doesn't feel like the night... .
- What did she say?
325
00:18:38,368 --> 00:18:40,076
She said no.
326
00:18:42,372 --> 00:18:45,042
Well, I mean, that'll change, right?
327
00:18:45,250 --> 00:18:47,409
Hey, let me ask you something.
328
00:18:47,586 --> 00:18:50,540
When Jenny was pregnant with Mallory,
you were nervous, right?
329
00:18:51,507 --> 00:18:53,333
- Yeah.
- Yeah, me too.
330
00:18:53,509 --> 00:18:55,252
Every father.
331
00:18:56,178 --> 00:18:57,423
Yeah.
332
00:18:59,431 --> 00:19:02,183
But I think I was nervous
for a different reason.
333
00:19:02,392 --> 00:19:03,768
What?
334
00:19:03,936 --> 00:19:05,346
I think I was nervous...
335
00:19:05,771 --> 00:19:07,810
...I wasn't gonna love my kids...
336
00:19:09,274 --> 00:19:11,516
...the way other fathers love theirs.
337
00:19:13,070 --> 00:19:14,232
Why?
338
00:19:17,950 --> 00:19:19,823
I don't know.
339
00:19:23,664 --> 00:19:27,496
lf, for nine months, you're hearing
how this is gonna change your life, and:
340
00:19:27,668 --> 00:19:31,167
"You've never loved anything
like this," and,"My God, the love"...
341
00:19:31,338 --> 00:19:35,383
...and,"Nothing is gonna be
important anymore... ."
342
00:19:35,551 --> 00:19:39,631
It just never felt to me like I was someone
who had the capacity for those feelings.
343
00:19:45,811 --> 00:19:47,887
Plus, you know, I... .
344
00:19:48,939 --> 00:19:51,810
I like what's important to me.
I want it to stay important.
345
00:19:51,984 --> 00:19:53,941
I wanna be able to do it well.
346
00:19:54,695 --> 00:19:57,020
What do you mean,
you don't have the capacity?
347
00:20:00,868 --> 00:20:02,944
Anyway, I was just curious.
348
00:20:05,414 --> 00:20:07,453
Of course you're gonna be
a great father.
349
00:20:07,624 --> 00:20:11,669
Of course you'll love your kids how you're
supposed to, the way other fathers...
350
00:20:11,837 --> 00:20:13,711
My God, Leo...
351
00:20:13,881 --> 00:20:16,585
...we look around, we see
that's not true, not automatic.
352
00:20:16,758 --> 00:20:18,301
I'm not talking about everybody.
353
00:20:18,468 --> 00:20:22,597
I'm talking about you,
and I'm telling you, it's a mortal lock.
354
00:20:23,807 --> 00:20:25,930
It's guaranteed.
355
00:20:33,817 --> 00:20:36,522
Toby, what went on at the house?
356
00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:46,278
With the Capitol areavirtually sealed off...
357
00:20:46,455 --> 00:20:50,120
... all air traffic has been grounded.
358
00:20:50,292 --> 00:20:51,952
Mrs. Bartlet?
359
00:20:52,127 --> 00:20:54,369
Ma'am? Mrs. Bartlet?
360
00:20:54,588 --> 00:20:56,082
I'm gonna make a direct appeal.
361
00:20:56,256 --> 00:20:59,542
They'll turn on the cameras
when I go into the briefing room.
362
00:20:59,718 --> 00:21:00,998
- You can't.
- I'm the mother.
363
00:21:01,220 --> 00:21:03,711
- You can't.
- I don't know why I waited. I screwed up.
364
00:21:03,889 --> 00:21:05,549
- Let's sit down.
- Get away from me.
365
00:21:05,724 --> 00:21:07,847
You can't go in the press room. It'll...
366
00:21:08,018 --> 00:21:09,560
- I've seen mothers do it.
- Abbey.
367
00:21:10,646 --> 00:21:13,516
- You can't go in the press room.
- I'll make a direct appeal.
368
00:21:13,690 --> 00:21:16,360
I don't know why I waited.
I've seen mothers do it.
369
00:21:16,777 --> 00:21:18,816
- Mrs. Bartlet!
- Mrs. Bartlet!
370
00:21:18,987 --> 00:21:21,194
Guys, give her a break.
371
00:21:41,718 --> 00:21:45,004
It can be seen
as negotiating with them...
372
00:21:45,180 --> 00:21:48,549
...and could undermine the military
threats the president is making...
373
00:21:48,725 --> 00:21:51,263
...and if the goal
is to destabilize our government...
374
00:21:51,436 --> 00:21:53,678
...they'll see you
and know they're succeeding.
375
00:21:53,856 --> 00:21:56,144
You can't go in the press room.
376
00:21:59,278 --> 00:22:01,317
I know.
377
00:22:03,699 --> 00:22:05,987
I'd just seen other mothers do it.
378
00:22:08,537 --> 00:22:10,197
I screwed up.
379
00:22:11,456 --> 00:22:14,126
Abbey, come sit on my couch
for a minute.
380
00:22:20,966 --> 00:22:23,172
I'm gonna call the doctor.
381
00:22:23,343 --> 00:22:27,175
- Tell him I want whatever Zoey got.
- Come sit on my couch.
382
00:22:32,644 --> 00:22:35,182
It's Amy.
Yeah, she's all right. She's fine.
383
00:22:35,355 --> 00:22:38,273
If you could just step into
the press secretary's office.
384
00:22:38,442 --> 00:22:40,233
Thank you.
385
00:22:41,361 --> 00:22:44,232
Mr. President, have Leo meet
with the Qumari ambassador.
386
00:22:44,406 --> 00:22:47,822
Have him do it before the sun comes up.
Try the diplomatic route...
387
00:22:47,993 --> 00:22:51,694
...before this gets out of hand.
- Before it gets out of hand?
388
00:22:51,872 --> 00:22:55,039
Sir, I wanna put the planes
in the air now.
389
00:22:55,209 --> 00:22:58,909
If we're gonna end up striking bases
later on in Tamar and Laddi...
390
00:22:59,087 --> 00:23:00,961
...we'll need some element of surprise.
391
00:23:01,131 --> 00:23:04,547
Chairman, do I have to remind you
that Qumar is an ally?
392
00:23:04,718 --> 00:23:06,461
You don't.
393
00:23:06,637 --> 00:23:08,510
But I ask, what good is an ally...
394
00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:12,345
...if their citizens are capable
of waging war on their own?
395
00:23:12,684 --> 00:23:14,095
Excuse me, sir.
396
00:23:14,269 --> 00:23:15,467
We have a problem.
397
00:23:15,646 --> 00:23:17,140
One?
398
00:23:17,481 --> 00:23:19,806
There's an airplane up there.
399
00:23:21,109 --> 00:23:24,229
Captain, give us the controller's
transmission, please.
400
00:23:24,446 --> 00:23:27,151
- Yes, sir.
- An unidentified Beech Baron 58.
401
00:23:27,324 --> 00:23:30,241
It's a twin-prop plane.
It's over Richland, Washington...
402
00:23:30,410 --> 00:23:33,945
...and it hasn't acknowledged
communications from Air Traffic Control.
403
00:23:34,164 --> 00:23:36,916
They're 90 miles from
the Saw Mill River Nuclear Reactor.
404
00:23:37,084 --> 00:23:39,207
Beech 0827, do you respond, over?
405
00:23:40,671 --> 00:23:43,790
Beech 0827, this is Air Route TrafficControl Center, Seattle.
406
00:23:43,966 --> 00:23:45,128
Do you respond, over?
407
00:23:45,342 --> 00:23:47,714
- We scrambled the jets?
- Two F-15s from Portland.
408
00:23:47,928 --> 00:23:50,501
They're over water.
They have clear shots.
409
00:23:50,722 --> 00:23:53,213
When do you want the order,
70 miles from the target?
410
00:23:53,433 --> 00:23:55,924
- Sixty, 50?
- I'm sorry, Mr. President, which target?
411
00:23:56,144 --> 00:23:58,470
- The nuclear plant.
- How far away do I wait...?
412
00:23:58,647 --> 00:24:00,521
Has the transponderbeen dialed to 7700?
413
00:24:00,691 --> 00:24:02,482
Negative. No signal.
414
00:24:03,026 --> 00:24:05,778
Seventy-seven hundred's
an emergency frequency?
415
00:24:05,988 --> 00:24:09,191
If you lose your radio,
you set your transponder to 7700.
416
00:24:09,366 --> 00:24:12,118
Seventy-five hundred means
you've been hijacked.
417
00:24:12,327 --> 00:24:16,028
- These guys aren't signaling anything.
- Fellas, we've got confusion in here.
418
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:18,998
When do I give the order?
419
00:24:19,209 --> 00:24:22,661
Beech 0827, this is Air Route TrafficControl Center, Seattle.
420
00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:26,747
Seventy miles. But they're gonna be
over population in about a minute.
421
00:24:26,967 --> 00:24:29,125
- Talk to me.
- General... .
422
00:24:29,344 --> 00:24:33,342
Beech 0827, this is U.S. Air ForceF- 15 56.
423
00:24:33,515 --> 00:24:36,801
I'm a half-mile back on your right side, and I have missile lock.
424
00:24:37,019 --> 00:24:42,772
Switch to frequency 12 1.5and stand by for slow flight.
425
00:24:43,317 --> 00:24:46,567
Yeah, this is Beech 0827.Sorry about that.
426
00:24:46,778 --> 00:24:49,104
We were having a problemwith the...
427
00:24:49,281 --> 00:24:51,238
With the thing.
428
00:25:03,045 --> 00:25:04,918
- Mr. President.
- I know you wanna get...
429
00:25:05,088 --> 00:25:08,374
...the planes in the air.
I wanna think about it a minute, okay?
430
00:25:08,550 --> 00:25:10,626
Of course, sir.
431
00:25:30,989 --> 00:25:33,397
I don't know what to do
about the military options.
432
00:25:33,575 --> 00:25:35,484
Nancy's making good points.
433
00:25:37,412 --> 00:25:39,903
Sorry about the confusion.
I know we practiced that.
434
00:25:40,082 --> 00:25:41,706
We're doing fine.
435
00:25:42,626 --> 00:25:44,286
I don't think so.
436
00:25:45,462 --> 00:25:47,787
I need you to tell me now.
437
00:25:47,965 --> 00:25:51,298
- Do you think she's already dead?
- I absolutely do not.
438
00:25:51,969 --> 00:25:55,172
If they show me a picture of her alive
and say to aim missiles...
439
00:25:55,347 --> 00:25:57,304
...at Tel Aviv, they're counting on me...
440
00:25:57,474 --> 00:25:59,182
But you wouldn't.
441
00:26:00,477 --> 00:26:01,852
I might.
442
00:26:02,062 --> 00:26:04,518
There are people around you
who won't let you.
443
00:26:04,731 --> 00:26:07,483
How about a knife to her throat,
get out of Saudi Arabia?
444
00:26:07,693 --> 00:26:11,690
- You shouldn't think of images like that.
- All I can think of are images like that.
445
00:26:11,905 --> 00:26:14,740
- Sir...
- Leo, please listen to me.
446
00:26:16,285 --> 00:26:20,662
Did Fitz give me target recommendations
a little while ago?
447
00:26:21,248 --> 00:26:22,956
Yes, sir.
He wants to attack a base...
448
00:26:23,125 --> 00:26:25,248
I don't remember having
the conversation...
449
00:26:25,419 --> 00:26:27,328
...or what targets
he wants to hit.
450
00:26:27,546 --> 00:26:30,119
- Did I green-light the targets?
- Of course not.
451
00:26:30,340 --> 00:26:34,967
Mr. President, no one is expecting you
to keep the U.S. out of a war tonight.
452
00:26:35,137 --> 00:26:37,710
Me and Nancy and Fitz are standing
right next to you.
453
00:26:37,890 --> 00:26:41,093
When you get information, you don't
need to remember it.
454
00:26:41,268 --> 00:26:44,020
And we're standing right next to you
when you give orders.
455
00:26:44,188 --> 00:26:46,227
You're not gonna hurt anybody.
456
00:26:52,237 --> 00:26:54,693
I know it's a strange time
to bring this up...
457
00:26:55,866 --> 00:26:58,618
...but I forecasted this once.
458
00:26:59,745 --> 00:27:04,572
I made up a scary story a few years ago
for Zoey so that she'd take...
459
00:27:04,750 --> 00:27:08,700
...her protection seriously,
and I went too far.
460
00:27:10,339 --> 00:27:12,627
And I scared her.
461
00:27:12,841 --> 00:27:14,881
And she cried.
462
00:27:17,679 --> 00:27:20,135
This was the story.
463
00:27:23,060 --> 00:27:27,472
Leo, the people you just named
don't have the legal authority...
464
00:27:27,648 --> 00:27:29,771
...to stop me from doing certain things.
465
00:27:29,983 --> 00:27:33,981
And some of them would go to jail
if they didn't follow my orders.
466
00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:37,439
Very quietly...
467
00:27:38,075 --> 00:27:40,363
...I want you to assemble the Cabinet.
468
00:27:42,955 --> 00:27:46,288
I want you to call
the speaker of the house.
469
00:28:13,735 --> 00:28:16,143
Is she asleep?
470
00:28:16,530 --> 00:28:18,072
Yeah.
471
00:28:27,666 --> 00:28:28,946
Mr. Ziegler?
472
00:28:29,168 --> 00:28:31,741
You know, these people
went home last night.
473
00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:34,245
I can bring the babies in there.
You can have...
474
00:28:34,423 --> 00:28:36,665
Oh, no. Thank you.
475
00:28:37,301 --> 00:28:38,332
No.
476
00:28:39,136 --> 00:28:40,215
That's okay.
477
00:28:43,515 --> 00:28:44,713
Okay.
478
00:28:46,435 --> 00:28:47,633
Yeah, sure.
479
00:28:47,853 --> 00:28:49,015
Right over here.
480
00:28:49,188 --> 00:28:50,598
There we go.
481
00:28:51,732 --> 00:28:53,855
They need to be fed soon,
so I'll come back.
482
00:28:54,026 --> 00:28:55,568
Thank you.
483
00:29:08,999 --> 00:29:11,537
I didn't realize babies come with hats.
484
00:29:14,171 --> 00:29:16,045
You guys crack me up.
485
00:29:18,759 --> 00:29:22,543
You don't have jobs. You can't walk
or speak the language.
486
00:29:23,013 --> 00:29:27,011
You don't have a dollar in your pockets,
but you got yourselves a hat.
487
00:29:27,726 --> 00:29:29,185
So everything's fine.
488
00:29:33,815 --> 00:29:36,651
I don't wanna alarm you or anything...
489
00:29:37,110 --> 00:29:38,735
...but I'm Dad.
490
00:29:45,035 --> 00:29:46,613
And for you...
491
00:29:47,454 --> 00:29:49,245
...son...
492
00:29:49,581 --> 00:29:52,203
...for you, this'll be the last time
I pass the buck...
493
00:29:52,376 --> 00:29:56,160
...but I think it should be clear
from the get-go that it was Mom...
494
00:29:56,338 --> 00:29:58,710
...who named you Huckleberry.
495
00:29:59,967 --> 00:30:02,043
I guess she was feeling like life...
496
00:30:02,219 --> 00:30:05,919
...doesn't present enough challenges
to overcome on its own.
497
00:30:09,643 --> 00:30:12,134
And, honey, you've got
a name now too.
498
00:30:13,564 --> 00:30:16,600
Your mom and I named you after...
499
00:30:16,775 --> 00:30:19,266
...an incredibly brave... .
500
00:30:26,743 --> 00:30:28,783
An incredibly brave woman...
501
00:30:29,454 --> 00:30:32,159
...really not all that much
older than you.
502
00:30:33,959 --> 00:30:35,619
Your name is Molly.
503
00:30:37,671 --> 00:30:40,672
Huck and Molly.
504
00:30:48,765 --> 00:30:51,766
So, what do I do?
505
00:30:51,935 --> 00:30:56,893
Well, you're gonna need food
and clothes and doctors and dentists...
506
00:30:57,065 --> 00:30:58,939
...and there's that.
507
00:30:59,109 --> 00:31:02,395
And should you have
any questions along the way...
508
00:31:06,158 --> 00:31:08,316
...I'm gonna be doing stuff like this...
509
00:31:09,703 --> 00:31:14,282
...Huck, because you're leaking
a little bit out of your mouth there.
510
00:31:22,007 --> 00:31:24,249
You holding my finger, son?
511
00:31:27,221 --> 00:31:29,047
Hey, Molly...
512
00:31:29,598 --> 00:31:31,756
...your brother's holding my hand.
513
00:31:32,267 --> 00:31:33,927
You wanna hold my hand?
514
00:31:40,442 --> 00:31:44,570
This isn't gonna mean anything to you,
but Leo was right.
515
00:31:47,866 --> 00:31:49,574
Leo was right.
516
00:31:52,246 --> 00:31:55,033
- Mr. Ziegler?
- Yeah.
517
00:31:57,042 --> 00:32:00,458
It's so nice when they look at you
like that, isn't it?
518
00:32:00,796 --> 00:32:02,207
Yeah.
519
00:32:03,674 --> 00:32:06,793
Oh, look how sweet they are together.
520
00:32:07,970 --> 00:32:10,176
They've been showing home videos
on the news.
521
00:32:10,347 --> 00:32:12,553
I don't know why they do that.
522
00:32:23,277 --> 00:32:25,353
I have to get back to my office now.
523
00:32:25,529 --> 00:32:28,696
Mr. Ziegler, would you convey
to the president and Mrs. Bartlet...
524
00:32:28,866 --> 00:32:32,484
...that the prayers of everyone
in this hospital...
525
00:32:32,703 --> 00:32:34,530
...and everyone are with them tonight?
526
00:32:34,705 --> 00:32:36,911
Of course I will.
They'll both appreciate it.
527
00:32:37,082 --> 00:32:39,917
I'm writing down my pager number...
528
00:32:40,085 --> 00:32:41,876
...if Andy needs me...
529
00:32:42,045 --> 00:32:44,287
...or if they do anything new.
530
00:32:44,506 --> 00:32:45,751
- New?
- Yeah.
531
00:32:45,924 --> 00:32:47,668
Like what?
532
00:32:48,343 --> 00:32:49,375
You never know.
533
00:33:03,984 --> 00:33:06,024
Oh, thank you.
534
00:33:06,195 --> 00:33:08,602
- Charlie's on his way.
- Thanks.
535
00:33:10,115 --> 00:33:12,357
I think you should sleep for a few hours.
536
00:33:13,118 --> 00:33:16,653
I'll sleep when he sleeps,
but you should sleep for a few hours.
537
00:33:16,872 --> 00:33:19,327
- I'll sleep when you sleep.
- Well, interesting.
538
00:33:19,541 --> 00:33:24,037
We'll have a small band of dedicated
people who can't lift their arms.
539
00:33:24,630 --> 00:33:26,254
Yes, sir.
540
00:33:27,341 --> 00:33:30,591
I guess if I told you to get some sleep,
it wouldn't do much good.
541
00:33:30,802 --> 00:33:32,213
I'm fine.
542
00:33:34,056 --> 00:33:35,929
Tell the staff secretary's office...
543
00:33:36,099 --> 00:33:39,515
...I'm gonna freeze all nonessential
paper for executive signature.
544
00:33:39,728 --> 00:33:44,022
All nonessential executive orders.
All nonessential correspondence.
545
00:33:44,233 --> 00:33:46,356
All legislation.
546
00:33:47,528 --> 00:33:49,271
You understand?
547
00:34:00,457 --> 00:34:01,868
Until when?
548
00:34:02,042 --> 00:34:04,498
Until further notice.
549
00:34:06,213 --> 00:34:09,498
I need you to get
a federal judge here right away.
550
00:34:09,967 --> 00:34:11,675
Yes, sir.
551
00:34:16,056 --> 00:34:17,634
Donna's paging Toby.
552
00:34:22,396 --> 00:34:25,765
I just ordered Charlie to have
the staff secretary's office...
553
00:34:25,941 --> 00:34:28,812
...hold all nonessential paper
for executive signature.
554
00:34:29,111 --> 00:34:30,190
Why?
555
00:34:30,362 --> 00:34:32,770
It's one in a series of steps
I'm taking tonight...
556
00:34:32,990 --> 00:34:37,699
...to temporarily but dramatically
downsize the scope of the Oval Office.
557
00:34:38,036 --> 00:34:40,243
- Why?
- The Cabinet's meeting in a few minutes.
558
00:34:40,414 --> 00:34:41,659
Leo... .
559
00:34:41,874 --> 00:34:44,115
He's invoking the 25th Amendment.
560
00:34:44,334 --> 00:34:45,877
He's invoking 25.
561
00:34:48,797 --> 00:34:51,549
- Really?
- Yes.
562
00:34:53,510 --> 00:34:57,378
- Is his mind made up?
- He's with the Cabinet now.
563
00:34:57,598 --> 00:34:59,590
Where did everyone come down?
564
00:34:59,766 --> 00:35:02,767
Josh and I were on the fence.
We don't know what Will thinks.
565
00:35:02,936 --> 00:35:06,103
Of the president temporarily handing
power to his political enemy?
566
00:35:06,273 --> 00:35:09,025
I think it's a fairly stunning act
of patriotism.
567
00:35:09,193 --> 00:35:11,399
And a fairly ordinary act of fatherhood.
568
00:35:12,029 --> 00:35:14,436
Yeah, I do too.
569
00:35:14,615 --> 00:35:16,441
Hey.
570
00:35:19,161 --> 00:35:21,284
The president's gotta leave
the West Wing.
571
00:35:21,496 --> 00:35:23,785
- Why are you out of breath?
- I ran very fast...
572
00:35:23,957 --> 00:35:25,950
...and there were obstacles.
- Babies okay?
573
00:35:26,126 --> 00:35:29,044
Yeah. They're great.
And if somebody was hurting them...
574
00:35:29,213 --> 00:35:31,751
...I'd drop napalm on Yellowstone
to get them to stop.
575
00:35:31,924 --> 00:35:33,833
Letting prisoners out
would be nothing...
576
00:35:34,009 --> 00:35:36,334
...and I've known my kids
for about 45 minutes.
577
00:35:36,970 --> 00:35:39,805
He's invoking the 25th.
578
00:35:40,015 --> 00:35:42,257
- He is?
- Yes.
579
00:35:50,192 --> 00:35:51,567
Good.
580
00:35:56,156 --> 00:36:00,948
"...availing myself of the constitutional
option offered to this office...
581
00:36:01,161 --> 00:36:04,281
...by Section 3
of the 25th Amendment...
582
00:36:04,456 --> 00:36:06,947
...which permits,
through written declaration...
583
00:36:07,125 --> 00:36:11,075
...to temporarily transfer all powers
of the presidency...
584
00:36:11,255 --> 00:36:15,502
...to the next in the constitutional
line of succession."
585
00:36:26,311 --> 00:36:31,436
It's just that we're elevating the most
powerful Republican in the country.
586
00:36:31,608 --> 00:36:34,775
That's just a political reality.
587
00:36:34,945 --> 00:36:39,239
It's just a political reality.
588
00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:43,403
The article doesn't require
the unanimous consent of the Cabinet...
589
00:36:43,579 --> 00:36:44,693
...but I want it.
590
00:36:45,205 --> 00:36:49,784
I want it as clear as can be that this
administration stands squarely behind...
591
00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:52,914
...and shoulder to shoulder,
with the acting president.
592
00:36:56,717 --> 00:36:59,422
We're gonna be handing
the Republicans the election.
593
00:36:59,595 --> 00:37:00,793
Yes, we are.
594
00:37:01,263 --> 00:37:04,430
It doesn't say,"I can't handle this."
595
00:37:04,600 --> 00:37:06,224
It says,"I am handling this."
596
00:37:06,393 --> 00:37:08,220
It does.
597
00:37:10,689 --> 00:37:14,224
Mr. President, my concern is this:
598
00:37:14,985 --> 00:37:18,603
If you and the acting president
were to give contradictory orders...
599
00:37:18,780 --> 00:37:21,532
...Leo McGarry would be put
into an impossible position...
600
00:37:21,700 --> 00:37:24,321
...which could lead
to extraordinary chaos.
601
00:37:24,494 --> 00:37:27,246
I won't be giving any orders.
602
00:37:28,248 --> 00:37:31,415
But if you did...
603
00:37:32,503 --> 00:37:35,338
...I think there are those in this room,
myself included...
604
00:37:35,506 --> 00:37:37,831
...who would wanna follow
those orders.
605
00:37:39,301 --> 00:37:42,053
And now we have two governments.
606
00:37:42,221 --> 00:37:44,130
Leo would know what to do.
607
00:37:44,306 --> 00:37:45,765
Would he?
608
00:37:46,558 --> 00:37:47,637
Yes.
609
00:37:54,733 --> 00:37:58,316
What if he changes his mind
and starts giving orders?
610
00:37:58,487 --> 00:38:00,978
Leo will know what to do.
611
00:38:03,700 --> 00:38:05,243
Secretary of Commerce?
612
00:38:07,412 --> 00:38:10,248
- Aye.
- Secretary of Veterans Affairs?
613
00:38:10,415 --> 00:38:11,958
Aye.
614
00:38:12,167 --> 00:38:14,160
Secretary of Housing
and Urban Development?
615
00:38:14,336 --> 00:38:17,705
- Aye.
- Secretary of Health and Education?
616
00:38:17,881 --> 00:38:19,162
Aye.
617
00:38:19,550 --> 00:38:21,507
- Secretary of Agriculture?
- Aye.
618
00:38:22,678 --> 00:38:25,299
- Secretary of the Treasury?
- Aye.
619
00:38:26,014 --> 00:38:28,552
Secretary of Defense?
620
00:38:28,725 --> 00:38:30,006
Aye.
621
00:38:30,185 --> 00:38:32,557
- Secretary of State?
- Aye.
622
00:38:33,564 --> 00:38:36,102
- Secretary of Labor?
- Aye.
623
00:38:36,275 --> 00:38:38,433
Secretary of the Interior?
624
00:38:55,544 --> 00:38:57,252
Relax, everybody.
625
00:38:59,131 --> 00:39:00,459
Breathe regular.
626
00:39:01,967 --> 00:39:03,545
You too.
627
00:39:07,973 --> 00:39:10,511
- Mr. Speaker.
- Leo.
628
00:39:10,726 --> 00:39:12,553
Let's go inside.
629
00:39:32,497 --> 00:39:34,905
- How's Mrs. Bartlet?
- Well, she's very upset.
630
00:39:35,083 --> 00:39:36,791
- Yeah.
- Mr. Speaker...
631
00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:39,286
...C.J., Josh, Toby, Will Bailey.
632
00:39:39,463 --> 00:39:42,298
They're just getting this news,
and they're among the first.
633
00:39:42,466 --> 00:39:46,166
They haven't put anything together,
but we'll do a joint press conference...
634
00:39:46,345 --> 00:39:50,639
...in probably two hours, and in that time,
you will receive your briefings...
635
00:39:50,849 --> 00:39:52,474
- What was the Beech Baron doing?
- Sorry?
636
00:39:52,643 --> 00:39:56,391
- What were the guys in the plane doing?
- They were frat guys, they were drunk.
637
00:39:56,563 --> 00:39:57,808
They were playing chicken.
638
00:39:58,023 --> 00:39:59,434
- Really?
- Yeah.
639
00:39:59,608 --> 00:40:01,102
- With the Air Force?
- What?
640
00:40:01,276 --> 00:40:03,565
- Playing chicken with the Air Force?
- Yes, sir.
641
00:40:03,737 --> 00:40:05,646
Unidentified aircraft get one warning.
642
00:40:05,822 --> 00:40:10,116
I don't care if my mother's onboard
that plane going to visit her mother.
643
00:40:19,294 --> 00:40:21,453
- Mr. Speaker.
- Mr. President.
644
00:40:23,882 --> 00:40:28,260
If the gun that killed Molly O'Connor
was bought through a loophole...
645
00:40:28,470 --> 00:40:30,012
...so help me God, Glen...
646
00:40:30,222 --> 00:40:32,713
Excuse me.
Madam Justice Sharon Day.
647
00:40:32,975 --> 00:40:34,433
- Come in.
- Mr. Speaker?
648
00:40:34,643 --> 00:40:36,102
- Yeah.
- You need to resign.
649
00:40:36,270 --> 00:40:38,143
- Does he?
- Yeah, it's against the law...
650
00:40:38,313 --> 00:40:40,436
...to work for two
branches at the same time.
651
00:40:40,649 --> 00:40:42,191
- You got some paper?
- Hang on.
652
00:40:42,401 --> 00:40:44,892
If you resign from Congress,
you can't just go back.
653
00:40:45,070 --> 00:40:46,612
You have to be elected again.
654
00:40:46,822 --> 00:40:49,609
I was gonna have to be elected
again in two years anyway.
655
00:40:50,409 --> 00:40:52,200
Witnesses.
656
00:41:03,338 --> 00:41:06,209
- Huck?
- And Molly.
657
00:41:09,178 --> 00:41:10,885
Nice.
658
00:41:11,513 --> 00:41:14,514
So, what do you know now
that you didn't know before?
659
00:41:14,933 --> 00:41:16,344
Babies come with hats.
660
00:41:16,518 --> 00:41:17,633
Yeah.
661
00:41:17,811 --> 00:41:21,595
They also come with those little
theft-protection devices...
662
00:41:21,773 --> 00:41:26,601
...little LoJacks on their ankles so
they can't be boosted from the hospital.
663
00:41:26,820 --> 00:41:29,311
Man, don't ever let them take it off.
664
00:41:32,117 --> 00:41:36,578
There's no one in this room who wouldn't
rather die than let you down, you know.
665
00:41:40,667 --> 00:41:43,917
All right, let's get organized.
I've got two letters.
666
00:41:44,755 --> 00:41:48,373
One removing me from power,
the other reinstating me.
667
00:41:48,592 --> 00:41:50,300
I'll sign the first.
668
00:41:50,511 --> 00:41:53,465
The justice will swear in the speaker,
and Leo's right...
669
00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:56,468
...the first thing is,
how do we announce this?
670
00:41:56,683 --> 00:41:58,557
Well, the president and the speaker...
671
00:41:58,769 --> 00:42:00,975
...have to make it clear
someone is in charge.
672
00:42:01,188 --> 00:42:04,391
I'd argue we first have to make it clear
to the world...
673
00:42:04,608 --> 00:42:07,479
...that there's someone in charge.
- Make it clear to Bahji.
674
00:42:07,653 --> 00:42:09,526
Franz Ferdinand...
675
00:42:09,696 --> 00:42:12,946
...who was the nephew
of the Austro-Hungarian emperor...
676
00:42:13,116 --> 00:42:15,987
...was killed by a group
called the Black Hand.
677
00:42:16,161 --> 00:42:18,866
And because they were
a Serbian nationalist society...
678
00:42:19,039 --> 00:42:20,866
...the empire declared war on Serbia.
679
00:42:21,041 --> 00:42:24,576
Then Russia, which was bound
by a treaty, was forced to mobilize...
680
00:42:24,753 --> 00:42:27,671
...which meant that Germany
had to declare war on Russia.
681
00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:32,383
Then France declared war on Germany,
and that was World War I.
682
00:42:32,553 --> 00:42:36,467
Because the emperor's nephew
was killed.
683
00:42:36,640 --> 00:42:37,755
Now...
684
00:42:37,933 --> 00:42:40,768
...I thought you all
had some good ideas...
685
00:42:40,936 --> 00:42:43,853
...but somebody should make it clear
to those in this room...
686
00:42:44,022 --> 00:42:46,015
...that someone is in charge.
687
00:42:46,191 --> 00:42:47,769
Glen, they've been up all night.
688
00:42:48,318 --> 00:42:50,940
You're relieved, Mr. President.
689
00:42:56,910 --> 00:42:59,318
You're relieved, sir.
690
00:43:11,508 --> 00:43:13,050
Swear him in.
691
00:43:19,516 --> 00:43:22,138
Will you place your right hand
on the Bible?
692
00:43:22,311 --> 00:43:25,727
Raise your left hand toward God
and repeat after me.
693
00:43:25,898 --> 00:43:29,017
l, Glenallen Walken,
do solemnly swear...
694
00:43:29,193 --> 00:43:31,434
l, Glenallen Walken,
do solemnly swear...
695
00:43:31,612 --> 00:43:35,775
...that I shall faithfully execute the office
of president of the United States.
696
00:43:35,949 --> 00:43:39,614
...that I shall faithfully execute the office
of president of the United States.
697
00:43:39,786 --> 00:43:41,862
And I will, to the best of my ability...
698
00:43:42,039 --> 00:43:46,083
...preserve, protect and defend
the Constitution of the United States.
699
00:43:46,251 --> 00:43:48,160
And I will, to the best of my ability...
700
00:43:48,337 --> 00:43:52,714
...preserve, protect and defend
the Constitution of the United States.57888
