Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:07,007 --> 00:00:08,474
Previously on The West Wing:
2
00:00:08,509 --> 00:00:11,009
The President will be announcing
a Blue Ribbon commission
3
00:00:11,044 --> 00:00:13,412
to study the long-term
future of entitlement programs.
4
00:00:13,447 --> 00:00:15,592
We want you to go to
a meeting. With who?
5
00:00:15,616 --> 00:00:16,776
A prominent Democrat
on the ethics committee.
6
00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:17,977
You set me up with my ex-wife.
7
00:00:18,001 --> 00:00:19,479
Come sit next to me.
I'm a responsible adult.
8
00:00:19,503 --> 00:00:21,498
I'm a member of the
United States Congress.
9
00:00:21,522 --> 00:00:22,599
Danny. Does the White House
10
00:00:22,623 --> 00:00:23,588
make a crusade out of
11
00:00:23,624 --> 00:00:24,751
defending the
rights of drug users?
12
00:00:24,775 --> 00:00:25,958
Oh, please.
13
00:00:27,227 --> 00:00:28,538
Now we have some questions
14
00:00:28,562 --> 00:00:30,962
about drug use in general
and marijuana in particular.
15
00:00:30,998 --> 00:00:32,497
Yeah?
16
00:00:32,533 --> 00:00:35,077
JerseyGirl wants to know if
marijuana can make you sterile.
17
00:00:35,101 --> 00:00:36,768
Is this JerseyGirl
asking the question
18
00:00:36,804 --> 00:00:38,603
or JerseyBoyfriend?
19
00:00:38,639 --> 00:00:39,938
Both.
20
00:00:39,973 --> 00:00:43,408
Okay, well, there's no
evidence so far that marijuana
21
00:00:43,444 --> 00:00:47,946
has a permanent effect on the
male or female reproductive systems.
22
00:00:47,981 --> 00:00:51,950
A few studies have suggested
that heavy marijuana use
23
00:00:51,985 --> 00:00:55,454
may have an effect on
male testicular function,
24
00:00:55,489 --> 00:00:58,073
but that effect
would be reversible,
25
00:00:58,109 --> 00:01:00,408
so if JerseyBoyfriend
is concerned,
26
00:01:00,444 --> 00:01:02,878
he should mention
it to his doctor.
27
00:01:02,913 --> 00:01:06,632
PIXALADD wants to know if
marijuana can cause cancer.
28
00:01:06,667 --> 00:01:10,936
No conclusive study to
date has shown that it does.
29
00:01:10,971 --> 00:01:14,072
However... and this
is a big however...
30
00:01:14,107 --> 00:01:17,943
Cellular genetic and
human studies all suggest
31
00:01:17,978 --> 00:01:21,780
that, uh, the smoke
from pot is a risk factor
32
00:01:21,815 --> 00:01:23,359
in acquiring
respiratory disease,
33
00:01:23,383 --> 00:01:25,216
so, if PIXALADD wants to be able
34
00:01:25,252 --> 00:01:28,020
to walk up a flight of
stairs without throwing up,
35
00:01:28,055 --> 00:01:30,355
he should put the
bong back in the closet,
36
00:01:30,390 --> 00:01:33,324
behind the Allman Brothers
albums where it belongs.
37
00:01:33,694 --> 00:01:35,626
Josh?
38
00:01:35,662 --> 00:01:37,946
What the hell kind of
name is PIXALADD?
39
00:01:37,982 --> 00:01:38,947
Josh?
40
00:01:38,983 --> 00:01:40,282
I'm done?
41
00:01:40,317 --> 00:01:41,317
Yeah.
42
00:01:41,351 --> 00:01:42,528
Efficiency, Donna.
43
00:01:42,552 --> 00:01:43,518
Yeah.
44
00:01:43,553 --> 00:01:44,798
Efficiency and professionalism
45
00:01:44,822 --> 00:01:47,355
and we're out of here at
9:00 on a Wednesday night.
46
00:01:47,391 --> 00:01:49,357
Doesn't hurt the
President's in Tokyo.
47
00:01:49,393 --> 00:01:51,872
Yeah, well, there does seem
to be a little less work to do
48
00:01:51,896 --> 00:01:54,241
when he's in a different
hemisphere, but nonetheless...
49
00:01:54,265 --> 00:01:55,964
Efficiency and professionalism.
50
00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:58,633
With a healthy dollop
of leadership skills.
51
00:01:58,669 --> 00:02:00,781
The well-placed,
well-worded memo.
52
00:02:00,805 --> 00:02:02,215
Nobody goes off the reservation.
53
00:02:02,239 --> 00:02:03,405
Everybody does their job.
54
00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:05,018
Turn off your
computer. Let's go.
55
00:02:05,042 --> 00:02:06,608
No, I'm going to
stay and watch this.
56
00:02:06,643 --> 00:02:08,043
I think maybe you should, too.
57
00:02:08,078 --> 00:02:09,289
What is it?
58
00:02:09,313 --> 00:02:11,079
The Surgeon General's
doing an on-line chat.
59
00:02:11,115 --> 00:02:12,097
What's she talking about?
60
00:02:12,132 --> 00:02:13,832
Decriminalizing marijuana.
61
00:02:13,867 --> 00:02:15,366
See you tomorrow.
62
00:02:18,205 --> 00:02:19,616
What's she talking about?
63
00:02:19,640 --> 00:02:22,841
"Do you favor the
decriminalization of marijuana?"
64
00:02:22,876 --> 00:02:24,092
"That's not for me to say.
65
00:02:24,128 --> 00:02:25,538
"I can tell you that marijuana
66
00:02:25,562 --> 00:02:28,596
poses no greater public health
risk than nicotine or alcohol..."
67
00:02:28,632 --> 00:02:30,610
"and doesn't share the
same addictive properties
68
00:02:30,634 --> 00:02:32,267
as heroin and LSD."
69
00:02:32,302 --> 00:02:36,038
"Yet, bizarrely, to many of us
in the health care profession,
70
00:02:36,073 --> 00:02:40,575
"the law categorizes it as
a Schedule One narcotic...
71
00:02:40,610 --> 00:02:44,128
while putting a government
seal on a pack of cigarettes."
72
00:02:45,666 --> 00:02:48,600
Yeah, somebody
didn't get your memo.
73
00:02:48,636 --> 00:02:52,638
Captioning sponsored
by WARNER BROS.
74
00:03:41,988 --> 00:03:42,954
C.J.?
75
00:03:42,989 --> 00:03:43,955
Yeah.
76
00:03:43,991 --> 00:03:45,151
I need you to
take a look at this.
77
00:03:45,175 --> 00:03:46,252
What is it?
78
00:03:46,276 --> 00:03:48,376
It's a transcript
of an on-line chat
79
00:03:48,411 --> 00:03:50,879
Millicent Griffith
just did... page eight.
80
00:03:50,914 --> 00:03:53,092
Toby's headed to his office
and Sam's on the phone.
81
00:03:53,116 --> 00:03:54,382
I can't talk to him right now.
82
00:03:54,417 --> 00:03:55,383
He says it's important.
83
00:03:55,418 --> 00:03:56,563
I'm going to be
there in a minute.
84
00:03:56,587 --> 00:03:57,552
"The Allman Brothers"?
85
00:03:57,588 --> 00:03:59,020
It gets a lot worse.
86
00:03:59,056 --> 00:04:01,367
"marijuana poses no
greater public health risk
87
00:04:01,391 --> 00:04:03,369
"than nicotine or alcohol...
88
00:04:03,393 --> 00:04:07,028
"doesn't show the same
addictive properties as...
89
00:04:07,064 --> 00:04:09,363
bizarrely categorizes it as..."
90
00:04:09,399 --> 00:04:10,409
And... I quit.
91
00:04:10,433 --> 00:04:11,399
Let's go.
92
00:04:11,434 --> 00:04:12,679
Is she kidding me with this?
93
00:04:12,703 --> 00:04:13,668
No.
94
00:04:13,704 --> 00:04:14,669
When did it happen?
95
00:04:14,705 --> 00:04:15,882
She finished five minutes ago.
96
00:04:15,906 --> 00:04:17,238
Talk me through
the next 12 hours.
97
00:04:17,273 --> 00:04:18,239
These people got a story.
98
00:04:18,274 --> 00:04:19,719
I guarantee they've
called AP already...
99
00:04:19,743 --> 00:04:20,709
Carol, get me the wires.
100
00:04:20,744 --> 00:04:21,710
Yeah.
101
00:04:21,745 --> 00:04:23,456
It's too late for the
Times and the Post,
102
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:25,058
but LA and San
Francisco will have it
103
00:04:25,082 --> 00:04:26,292
and it'll be above the fold.
104
00:04:26,316 --> 00:04:27,694
The Today Show
will lead with it.
105
00:04:27,718 --> 00:04:29,028
Russert's going
to do a segment...
106
00:04:29,052 --> 00:04:30,018
Toby...
107
00:04:30,053 --> 00:04:31,330
Guys, I'm in the
Blue Ribbon meeting.
108
00:04:31,354 --> 00:04:32,320
I got Labor yelling at me.
109
00:04:32,355 --> 00:04:34,000
I got a real situation
developing over there.
110
00:04:34,024 --> 00:04:35,101
We've got a bit of a situation
111
00:04:35,125 --> 00:04:36,091
developing here, Toby.
112
00:04:36,126 --> 00:04:37,092
What's going on?
113
00:04:37,127 --> 00:04:38,326
Read that. Page eight.
114
00:04:38,361 --> 00:04:39,327
Why didn't you call me?
115
00:04:39,362 --> 00:04:40,328
While it was happening?
116
00:04:40,363 --> 00:04:41,329
Yes.
117
00:04:41,364 --> 00:04:42,330
So you could do what?
118
00:04:42,365 --> 00:04:43,331
When did it happen?
119
00:04:43,366 --> 00:04:45,044
She finished about
five or ten minutes ago.
120
00:04:45,068 --> 00:04:46,034
You saw it happen?
121
00:04:46,069 --> 00:04:47,035
Yeah.
122
00:04:47,070 --> 00:04:48,514
Why didn't you get me?
What were you going to do?
123
00:04:48,538 --> 00:04:49,504
End the interview.
124
00:04:49,539 --> 00:04:50,505
How?
125
00:04:50,540 --> 00:04:51,405
By ending it.
126
00:04:51,441 --> 00:04:52,751
Listen, something's
happened. We know.
127
00:04:52,775 --> 00:04:53,759
How do you know?
128
00:04:53,794 --> 00:04:54,971
Josh was watching
it in real time.
129
00:04:54,995 --> 00:04:57,562
I'm not going to belay into
the computer screen, Toby.
130
00:04:57,598 --> 00:04:58,842
What are you talking
about? The Surgeon General.
131
00:04:58,866 --> 00:04:59,798
What are you talking about?
132
00:04:59,833 --> 00:05:01,266
Never mind. What
did Griffith do?
133
00:05:01,301 --> 00:05:03,212
She reversed our
position on marijuana.
134
00:05:03,236 --> 00:05:06,337
All right, first things first...
What time is it in Tokyo?
135
00:05:06,373 --> 00:05:07,305
They're 14 hours ahead.
136
00:05:07,340 --> 00:05:08,301
I thought it was 13.
Eastern Daylight.
137
00:05:08,325 --> 00:05:09,435
So it's 14 hours ahead.
138
00:05:09,459 --> 00:05:10,954
We're sure it's ahead
and not behind?
139
00:05:10,978 --> 00:05:13,811
Guys, there are
clocks on the wall.
140
00:05:14,831 --> 00:05:16,831
Okay, so it's almost
11:00 in Tokyo.
141
00:05:16,867 --> 00:05:17,877
Ginger... Yes.
142
00:05:17,901 --> 00:05:18,883
Yeah. Get Larry and Ed.
143
00:05:18,919 --> 00:05:20,062
And anybody left in my office.
144
00:05:20,086 --> 00:05:21,553
We'll be in the Roosevelt Room.
145
00:05:21,588 --> 00:05:24,656
I'm sorry. 11:00 in the
morning, 11:00 in the afternoon?
146
00:05:24,691 --> 00:05:25,657
C.J. It's 11:00 a.m.
147
00:05:25,692 --> 00:05:26,991
"The Allman Brothers"?
148
00:05:27,026 --> 00:05:27,992
Keep reading.
149
00:05:28,027 --> 00:05:29,772
If it's not a story until
tomorrow morning,
150
00:05:29,796 --> 00:05:31,307
then they won't have
it till tomorrow night,
151
00:05:31,331 --> 00:05:32,630
so we bought a day.
152
00:05:32,666 --> 00:05:33,498
We bought two days. How?
153
00:05:33,533 --> 00:05:34,944
The plane ride.
When does he leave?
154
00:05:34,968 --> 00:05:36,033
7:00 p.m. Thursday.
155
00:05:36,069 --> 00:05:37,401
Tomorrow? Local time? Yes.
156
00:05:37,437 --> 00:05:38,781
Which local... theirs or ours?
157
00:05:38,805 --> 00:05:41,317
It will be 7:00 p.m. Thursday
in Japan when he leaves.
158
00:05:41,341 --> 00:05:42,674
And he lands here when?
159
00:05:44,444 --> 00:05:46,222
Okay, the flight
is 13 hours long...
160
00:05:46,246 --> 00:05:47,913
This isn't happening.
161
00:05:47,948 --> 00:05:49,525
He's going to travel
eastward from Tokyo,
162
00:05:49,549 --> 00:05:50,715
leaving at 7:00 p.m.,
163
00:05:50,751 --> 00:05:52,862
so when he crosses the
International Dateline...
164
00:05:52,886 --> 00:05:54,397
He'll have traveled
back in time to what?
165
00:05:54,421 --> 00:05:55,915
3:00 a.m. Which puts him down
166
00:05:55,939 --> 00:05:57,349
in Washington
6:00 p.m. Thursday.
167
00:05:57,373 --> 00:05:58,717
He's going to land in Washington
168
00:05:58,741 --> 00:05:59,952
an hour before he took off?
169
00:05:59,976 --> 00:06:00,808
Yeah.
170
00:06:00,844 --> 00:06:01,871
And that's not a story
171
00:06:01,895 --> 00:06:03,361
that beats the Surgeon General?
172
00:06:03,396 --> 00:06:05,436
Toby, they're calling
for you over there.
173
00:06:05,465 --> 00:06:07,310
I'm going to go get
yelled at some more.
174
00:06:07,334 --> 00:06:08,666
Josh, you need to get Leo.
175
00:06:08,701 --> 00:06:10,001
Yeah. Call Tokyo.
176
00:06:10,036 --> 00:06:11,936
Carol's got the wires.
177
00:06:11,971 --> 00:06:13,171
Thanks.
178
00:06:13,206 --> 00:06:15,140
Those clocks should
be in military time.
179
00:06:15,175 --> 00:06:17,342
Yeah, 'cause that's
less confusing.
180
00:06:17,377 --> 00:06:18,976
The man's gone 150 hours.
181
00:06:19,012 --> 00:06:21,045
How can it be Thursday
the whole time?
182
00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:24,227
Listen, Japan is nine hours
ahead of Greenwich Mean Time...
183
00:06:24,251 --> 00:06:25,783
Don't.
184
00:06:25,818 --> 00:06:27,480
Sophie, this is Donna Moss.
Could you locate the Chief
185
00:06:27,504 --> 00:06:29,398
of Staff for me? What were
you talking about before?
186
00:06:29,422 --> 00:06:31,823
I've just been told
by someone I believe
187
00:06:31,858 --> 00:06:33,691
that a full-page ad taken out
188
00:06:33,727 --> 00:06:35,288
by the Family Values
Leadership Council
189
00:06:35,312 --> 00:06:37,478
is going to appear in 22
newspapers tomorrow.
190
00:06:37,514 --> 00:06:40,131
It lists many prominent
people and it congratulates them
191
00:06:40,167 --> 00:06:42,278
for denouncing the
movie Prince of New York.
192
00:06:42,302 --> 00:06:43,201
Margaret, I've got Josh for him.
193
00:06:43,237 --> 00:06:44,185
So what's the problem?
194
00:06:44,220 --> 00:06:45,186
The President is one
195
00:06:45,221 --> 00:06:46,482
of the prominent
people they congratulate.
196
00:06:46,506 --> 00:06:48,083
The President
denounced the movie? No.
197
00:06:48,107 --> 00:06:49,374
Then how can they run that ad?
198
00:06:49,409 --> 00:06:50,658
I have no idea...
199
00:06:50,693 --> 00:06:52,705
but I don't like who we're
being congratulated by.
200
00:06:52,729 --> 00:06:53,694
Josh?
201
00:06:53,730 --> 00:06:54,695
Yeah.
202
00:06:54,731 --> 00:06:59,667
Yeah, Leo, we've got
a couple problems here.
203
00:07:15,619 --> 00:07:16,952
I'm here.
204
00:07:16,987 --> 00:07:18,252
Thanks.
205
00:07:18,288 --> 00:07:19,253
We're doing this again?
206
00:07:19,289 --> 00:07:20,755
Yeah.
207
00:07:20,791 --> 00:07:22,968
'Cause I just got you off
that little bellman's thing.
208
00:07:22,992 --> 00:07:26,161
Here's my problem.
209
00:07:26,196 --> 00:07:27,373
The AARP wants the President
210
00:07:27,397 --> 00:07:29,108
to put Seth Gillette
on the Commission.
211
00:07:29,132 --> 00:07:30,810
So does the AFL-CIO...
It's important to them
212
00:07:30,834 --> 00:07:32,578
and, I think, for that
reason, it's got to be
213
00:07:32,602 --> 00:07:34,113
important to us. There's
another good reason.
214
00:07:34,137 --> 00:07:35,036
It neutralizes him. He can't
215
00:07:35,071 --> 00:07:37,305
attack the
Commission if he's on it.
216
00:07:37,341 --> 00:07:38,734
Which is why if
we ask he'll say no.
217
00:07:38,758 --> 00:07:39,558
Maybe, maybe not.
218
00:07:39,593 --> 00:07:40,825
Yeah, but we can't risk that.
219
00:07:40,861 --> 00:07:42,739
First of all, we need
him on the Commission,
220
00:07:42,763 --> 00:07:43,873
or else labor and seniors
221
00:07:43,897 --> 00:07:45,341
will be suspicious
from the get-go.
222
00:07:45,365 --> 00:07:46,893
Second, if he's not going
to be on the Commission,
223
00:07:46,917 --> 00:07:48,194
it can't be 'cause
he turned us down.
224
00:07:48,218 --> 00:07:49,496
So either we get him
on the Commission
225
00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:51,531
or if we don't, make sure it's
'cause we never asked him.
226
00:07:51,555 --> 00:07:54,756
Yeah.
227
00:07:54,791 --> 00:07:55,990
Sam, he's on the phone.
228
00:07:56,026 --> 00:07:57,942
Thanks.
229
00:07:57,978 --> 00:08:00,662
Yeah, I don't know
the answer to that.
230
00:08:00,697 --> 00:08:01,563
Thanks for stopping by.
231
00:08:01,598 --> 00:08:02,631
Yeah.
232
00:08:07,904 --> 00:08:08,870
Charlie.
233
00:08:08,905 --> 00:08:09,871
Moshimoshi.
234
00:08:09,906 --> 00:08:11,050
Konichiwa, Sam.
235
00:08:11,074 --> 00:08:12,740
Ikaga dess ka.
236
00:08:12,776 --> 00:08:13,937
Yeah, listen.
237
00:08:13,961 --> 00:08:15,621
Did you have a
phone conversation
238
00:08:15,645 --> 00:08:17,862
with a movie producer
named Morgan Ross?
239
00:08:17,898 --> 00:08:19,347
Yeah, last week.
240
00:08:19,383 --> 00:08:21,649
Can you tell me about
that conversation?
241
00:08:21,685 --> 00:08:22,862
He's got a movie coming out.
242
00:08:22,886 --> 00:08:24,252
Prince of New York.
243
00:08:24,304 --> 00:08:26,382
Yeah, they wanted to
screen it at the White House.
244
00:08:26,406 --> 00:08:27,872
What did you say?
245
00:08:27,908 --> 00:08:30,119
They sent me the print the
week before and I looked at it.
246
00:08:30,143 --> 00:08:31,108
And you passed?
247
00:08:31,144 --> 00:08:32,410
Yeah.
248
00:08:32,446 --> 00:08:34,045
Charlie, was the President
249
00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:35,758
involved in that
decision at all?
250
00:08:35,782 --> 00:08:37,460
No, he lets me
choose the movies.
251
00:08:37,484 --> 00:08:39,161
I just didn't
think he'd like it,
252
00:08:39,185 --> 00:08:40,996
so I got Dial M
for Murder instead.
253
00:08:41,020 --> 00:08:41,970
Sam?
254
00:08:42,005 --> 00:08:42,971
Okay.
255
00:08:43,006 --> 00:08:45,273
Domo arigato.
256
00:08:45,309 --> 00:08:46,941
Yeah.
257
00:08:46,976 --> 00:08:49,055
Well, there'd be fallout
from women voters
258
00:08:49,079 --> 00:08:50,528
and I'm pretty sure the AMA,
259
00:08:50,563 --> 00:08:52,296
to say nothing
of the First Lady.
260
00:08:52,331 --> 00:08:53,631
Yeah.
261
00:08:53,667 --> 00:08:54,632
Leo?
262
00:08:54,668 --> 00:08:56,668
I've got about nine
people on a conference call
263
00:08:56,703 --> 00:08:58,036
at several points of longitude.
264
00:08:58,071 --> 00:08:59,303
When's your first briefing?
265
00:08:59,338 --> 00:09:01,650
An hour. Can you show
support for the Surgeon General
266
00:09:01,674 --> 00:09:02,957
without supporting her policy?
267
00:09:02,992 --> 00:09:03,958
Yeah.
268
00:09:03,993 --> 00:09:04,959
Show me. Try me.
269
00:09:04,994 --> 00:09:06,060
C.J., did you know
270
00:09:06,095 --> 00:09:07,673
that Dr. Griffith
was going to criticize
271
00:09:07,697 --> 00:09:09,642
the administration's
drug policy last night?
272
00:09:09,666 --> 00:09:11,811
I don't agree with your
characterization of her comments.
273
00:09:11,835 --> 00:09:13,312
I think she expressed
her opinion about
274
00:09:13,336 --> 00:09:15,047
the health effects of
certain illegal drugs.
275
00:09:15,071 --> 00:09:17,888
Well, she basically called for
the legalization of marijuana.
276
00:09:17,924 --> 00:09:19,485
Does the President
agree with her?
277
00:09:19,509 --> 00:09:20,825
Wrong again, and I'd refer you
278
00:09:20,860 --> 00:09:22,337
to the Surgeon
General's comments.
279
00:09:22,361 --> 00:09:24,306
When asked if marijuana
should be legalized,
280
00:09:24,330 --> 00:09:26,630
she said, and I'm quoting,
"It's not for me to say."
281
00:09:26,666 --> 00:09:29,462
And she's right and it's important
that people understand this:
282
00:09:29,486 --> 00:09:31,364
The Surgeon General
is not a lawmaker.
283
00:09:31,388 --> 00:09:33,788
She doesn't set drug
policy, the President does
284
00:09:33,823 --> 00:09:36,407
and the President is 100%
against legalizing drugs,
285
00:09:36,442 --> 00:09:39,677
including marijuana. Yeah.
286
00:09:39,713 --> 00:09:43,748
Leo, I can take
it to the next step.
287
00:09:45,251 --> 00:09:46,567
Okay.
288
00:09:51,207 --> 00:09:52,240
Okay.
289
00:09:52,275 --> 00:09:54,509
Leo wants me to
show her support?
290
00:09:54,544 --> 00:09:55,510
Yeah.
291
00:09:55,545 --> 00:09:56,511
Josh? Yeah.
292
00:09:56,546 --> 00:09:57,786
While I'm showing her support,
293
00:09:57,814 --> 00:09:58,891
what are you showing her?
294
00:09:58,915 --> 00:10:00,915
The door.
295
00:10:10,944 --> 00:10:11,893
Good morning.
296
00:10:11,928 --> 00:10:12,977
C.J.! C.J.!
297
00:10:13,012 --> 00:10:14,073
Hang on. Katie?
298
00:10:14,097 --> 00:10:16,042
Did you know the
Surgeon General was
299
00:10:16,066 --> 00:10:17,031
going to criticize
300
00:10:17,066 --> 00:10:19,178
the administration's
drug policy last night?"
301
00:10:19,202 --> 00:10:20,946
Well, first of all, I disagree
302
00:10:20,970 --> 00:10:23,082
with your characterization
of her comments.
303
00:10:23,106 --> 00:10:24,339
She expressed her opinion
304
00:10:24,374 --> 00:10:27,142
about the health effects of
certain illegal drugs. Jeff?
305
00:10:27,177 --> 00:10:28,754
I'm sorry, but
didn't she say...?
306
00:10:28,778 --> 00:10:30,856
Actually, what she
did say, and I quote is
307
00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:33,159
that there has been no
conclusive study to date Josh?
308
00:10:33,183 --> 00:10:34,810
To show that marijuana
causes cancer.
309
00:10:34,834 --> 00:10:35,783
Dr. Griffith.
310
00:10:35,818 --> 00:10:37,213
However... And
I'm still quoting...
311
00:10:37,237 --> 00:10:38,202
You want to come in?
312
00:10:38,238 --> 00:10:39,721
And this is a big
however... Yeah.
313
00:10:39,773 --> 00:10:41,951
"Cellular genetic and
human studies all suggest..."
314
00:10:41,975 --> 00:10:43,385
How have you been feeling?
315
00:10:43,409 --> 00:10:45,042
Well. I've been feeling fine.
316
00:10:45,078 --> 00:10:48,179
They're checking your
blood pressure once a week?
317
00:10:48,214 --> 00:10:49,180
Yeah, 130/87.
318
00:10:49,215 --> 00:10:50,815
Hmm, it's a little high.
319
00:10:50,850 --> 00:10:52,650
What about the
right leg and arm?
320
00:10:52,685 --> 00:10:54,163
There's a little stiffness.
321
00:10:54,187 --> 00:10:55,286
Yeah.
322
00:10:55,321 --> 00:10:58,389
You know the guys at
G.W. did a fantastic job.
323
00:10:58,424 --> 00:10:59,891
It's a beautiful scar.
324
00:10:59,926 --> 00:11:01,670
When have you seen my scar?
325
00:11:01,694 --> 00:11:02,760
At the hospital.
326
00:11:02,796 --> 00:11:03,895
I don't remember.
327
00:11:03,930 --> 00:11:06,697
You were unconscious.
How about your back?
328
00:11:06,732 --> 00:11:07,765
There's some pain.
329
00:11:07,801 --> 00:11:08,766
It's in your head.
330
00:11:08,802 --> 00:11:10,367
Along with all manner of things.
331
00:11:10,403 --> 00:11:11,413
Well, you know, Josh,
332
00:11:11,437 --> 00:11:13,916
just because the white
supremacists didn't kill you,
333
00:11:13,940 --> 00:11:16,118
doesn't mean that crap
you eat isn't going to.
334
00:11:16,142 --> 00:11:17,958
I eat fine.
335
00:11:17,994 --> 00:11:19,438
You eat like you're
still in college.
336
00:11:19,462 --> 00:11:20,812
I was in great shape in college.
337
00:11:20,847 --> 00:11:22,040
You were 19 in college.
338
00:11:22,064 --> 00:11:23,308
You could eat Tupperware
339
00:11:23,332 --> 00:11:24,977
and your system
would deal with it.
340
00:11:25,001 --> 00:11:26,929
Millicent, what were
you thinking about?
341
00:11:26,953 --> 00:11:30,238
I was asked a question, Josh.
342
00:11:30,273 --> 00:11:31,255
I understand.
343
00:11:31,291 --> 00:11:32,623
But your answers...
344
00:11:32,658 --> 00:11:33,735
My answers were correct.
345
00:11:33,759 --> 00:11:35,471
Is anyone challenging
me on the facts?
346
00:11:35,495 --> 00:11:36,744
Not yet.
347
00:11:36,780 --> 00:11:37,874
Well, they won't.
348
00:11:37,898 --> 00:11:41,210
As a doctor, I have an
obligation to tell the truth.
349
00:11:41,234 --> 00:11:43,279
Come to think of it, as a person
350
00:11:43,303 --> 00:11:44,880
I have that obligation as well.
351
00:11:44,904 --> 00:11:46,816
The truth is different
if you're a GP
352
00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:48,940
or a member of the
Stanford Faculty Club
353
00:11:48,975 --> 00:11:49,924
than if you're
354
00:11:49,959 --> 00:11:51,843
the country's chief
medical practitioner.
355
00:11:51,878 --> 00:11:53,889
Well, no, I think truth
is pretty much truth
356
00:11:53,913 --> 00:11:55,324
across the board, never more so
357
00:11:55,348 --> 00:11:57,948
than if you're the country's
chief medical practitioner.
358
00:11:57,984 --> 00:12:00,768
Did you know that
69% of Americans
359
00:12:00,804 --> 00:12:02,536
oppose legalization?
360
00:12:02,572 --> 00:12:03,572
Only 23% support it.
361
00:12:03,607 --> 00:12:05,501
The number gets a
lot higher than that
362
00:12:05,525 --> 00:12:06,925
if you ask people under 30.
363
00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:08,409
Well, that's a shock.
364
00:12:08,444 --> 00:12:10,789
Did you know that the number
gets even higher than that
365
00:12:10,813 --> 00:12:13,497
if you limit the polling sample
to Bob Marley and the Wailers?
366
00:12:13,533 --> 00:12:15,666
I mention that
particular age group
367
00:12:15,702 --> 00:12:18,786
because an awful lot of
them seem to be in prison.
368
00:12:18,821 --> 00:12:19,981
Is that what this is about?
369
00:12:20,006 --> 00:12:20,755
No.
370
00:12:20,790 --> 00:12:21,984
The criminal justice system is
371
00:12:22,008 --> 00:12:23,219
nowhere near your jurisdiction.
372
00:12:23,243 --> 00:12:24,570
I wasn't commenting
on the criminal justice...
373
00:12:24,594 --> 00:12:25,626
Millicent...
374
00:12:25,662 --> 00:12:27,373
I wasn't commenting on
the criminal justice system.
375
00:12:27,397 --> 00:12:30,231
"Yet, bizarrely, the
law categorizes it
376
00:12:30,267 --> 00:12:32,417
as a Schedule One narcotic."
377
00:12:32,452 --> 00:12:34,702
I was commenting on medicine.
378
00:12:34,737 --> 00:12:38,389
I've had three conversations
with Leo McGarry
379
00:12:38,425 --> 00:12:40,158
in the last 12 hours.
380
00:12:40,193 --> 00:12:41,592
The reason I've come here...
381
00:12:41,627 --> 00:12:43,010
Josh, I'm not a politician,
382
00:12:43,046 --> 00:12:45,863
but it's not like I haven't
lived here for two years.
383
00:12:45,899 --> 00:12:49,216
C.J.'s up there right now
giving you our support.
384
00:12:49,252 --> 00:12:51,820
I'm sorry, but we
need you to resign.
385
00:12:56,442 --> 00:12:58,192
No.
386
00:12:58,227 --> 00:13:02,613
Dr. Griffith, I say this
with all possible respect,
387
00:13:02,648 --> 00:13:06,750
but you serve at the
pleasure of the President.
388
00:13:06,786 --> 00:13:12,907
And I'll continue to right up
until the moment he fires me.
389
00:13:15,445 --> 00:13:19,864
Okay.
390
00:13:19,899 --> 00:13:21,482
Thank you, ma'am.
391
00:13:21,517 --> 00:13:23,117
Josh...
392
00:13:24,687 --> 00:13:27,188
See the doctor, get a lollipop.
393
00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:36,363
And the fact that the
President disagrees with her
394
00:13:36,399 --> 00:13:38,077
doesn't mean he's
going to fire her.
395
00:13:38,101 --> 00:13:40,179
The Surgeon General's
an executive appointee
396
00:13:40,203 --> 00:13:42,014
and the President
stands by his staff.
397
00:13:42,038 --> 00:13:43,537
Excellent.
398
00:13:43,573 --> 00:13:46,791
There's a full-page ad that
appears in today's Times.
399
00:13:46,826 --> 00:13:49,260
In fact, I've been told
that it might have appeared
400
00:13:49,296 --> 00:13:50,907
in as many as 22
papers this morning.
401
00:13:50,931 --> 00:13:52,030
The ad was taken out
402
00:13:52,065 --> 00:13:54,632
by the Family Values
Leadership Council and praises,
403
00:13:54,667 --> 00:13:56,100
among others, the President
404
00:13:56,136 --> 00:13:59,003
for denouncing a movie
that's opening next week called
405
00:13:59,039 --> 00:14:00,349
Prince of New York. Yes.
406
00:14:00,373 --> 00:14:01,973
Do you know anything about it?
407
00:14:02,008 --> 00:14:04,475
No, I don't know what
the hell's going on there.
408
00:14:04,510 --> 00:14:06,555
C.J., the President
didn't denounce it?
409
00:14:06,579 --> 00:14:07,790
Not unless he did
it in the shower,
410
00:14:07,814 --> 00:14:08,958
but he hasn't denounced it to me
411
00:14:08,982 --> 00:14:10,359
and he certainly
hasn't to the public.
412
00:14:10,383 --> 00:14:11,660
That's all. See
you this afternoon.
413
00:14:11,684 --> 00:14:12,650
Sam's here.
414
00:14:12,685 --> 00:14:13,651
Thank you.
415
00:14:13,686 --> 00:14:14,686
Good job.
416
00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:16,632
Please tell me what's
going on with this movie.
417
00:14:16,656 --> 00:14:18,022
It's called Prince of New York.
418
00:14:18,058 --> 00:14:19,023
Right.
419
00:14:19,059 --> 00:14:20,369
There's been some
controversy about it...
420
00:14:20,393 --> 00:14:21,359
Sex and violence?
421
00:14:21,394 --> 00:14:22,427
And religious imagery.
422
00:14:22,462 --> 00:14:24,562
Family and religious groups
are organizing boycotts.
423
00:14:24,597 --> 00:14:25,607
Right.
424
00:14:25,631 --> 00:14:27,131
The studio phone-banks Charlie
425
00:14:27,167 --> 00:14:29,800
'cause they want a
screening and Charlie passes.
426
00:14:29,836 --> 00:14:30,913
Why? 'Cause he did.
427
00:14:30,937 --> 00:14:33,271
The producer goes on Imus
and says Bartlet's a coward
428
00:14:33,306 --> 00:14:34,905
who's siding with
puritanical censors,
429
00:14:34,941 --> 00:14:36,274
and that Hollywood should know
430
00:14:36,309 --> 00:14:37,976
he's no friend of
the First Amendment.
431
00:14:38,011 --> 00:14:40,778
And then the Family Values
Leadership Council took out
432
00:14:40,813 --> 00:14:42,513
an ad congratulating
us for that?
433
00:14:42,548 --> 00:14:43,798
Yeah.
434
00:14:43,833 --> 00:14:44,999
Seriously, I quit.
435
00:14:45,034 --> 00:14:46,034
Here's the thing...
436
00:14:46,068 --> 00:14:47,145
Wait, wait.
437
00:14:47,169 --> 00:14:49,804
We've got these people...
we've got industry people...
438
00:14:49,839 --> 00:14:51,884
Prince of New York is
Morgan Ross's movie.
439
00:14:51,908 --> 00:14:53,140
Morgan Ross went on Imus?
440
00:14:53,175 --> 00:14:54,675
Well, he did it by phone, but...
441
00:14:54,711 --> 00:14:56,355
Morgan Ross called
the President a coward?
442
00:14:56,379 --> 00:14:57,912
He didn't call him a
coward as much as
443
00:14:57,947 --> 00:14:59,714
he called him "cowardly,"
which is different.
444
00:14:59,749 --> 00:15:00,715
How's it different?
445
00:15:00,750 --> 00:15:01,716
It's not. But still...
446
00:15:01,751 --> 00:15:02,717
I'm going to crush him.
447
00:15:02,752 --> 00:15:03,718
C.J...
448
00:15:03,753 --> 00:15:05,398
This guy's trying to
get a little free media
449
00:15:05,422 --> 00:15:06,387
by screwing with us.
450
00:15:06,423 --> 00:15:07,433
Look...
451
00:15:07,457 --> 00:15:09,290
I'm the enforcer, Sam.
I'm going to crush him.
452
00:15:09,325 --> 00:15:10,875
I'm going to make
him cry, and then I'm
453
00:15:10,910 --> 00:15:12,343
going to tell his mama about it.
454
00:15:12,378 --> 00:15:13,755
You're not going
to make him cry.
455
00:15:13,779 --> 00:15:15,279
You want to watch
me make him cry?
456
00:15:15,315 --> 00:15:16,892
I believe that you
can make him cry.
457
00:15:16,916 --> 00:15:18,611
I'm saying you're
not going to do it.
458
00:15:18,635 --> 00:15:19,767
Sam...
459
00:15:19,802 --> 00:15:21,880
We're meeting with
these people tomorrow.
460
00:15:21,904 --> 00:15:23,381
I'll straighten things
out with Morgan Ross.
461
00:15:23,405 --> 00:15:24,483
Just keep telling the press that
462
00:15:24,507 --> 00:15:25,534
you don't know anything?
463
00:15:25,558 --> 00:15:26,907
That shouldn't be a problem.
464
00:15:26,943 --> 00:15:27,943
Thank you.
465
00:15:27,978 --> 00:15:28,943
Danny Concannon's on the phone
466
00:15:28,979 --> 00:15:30,156
and I think you should take it.
467
00:15:30,180 --> 00:15:31,145
Why?
468
00:15:31,181 --> 00:15:33,231
He wants the President's
reaction to a comment
469
00:15:33,266 --> 00:15:34,910
about the situation
with Millicent Griffith.
470
00:15:34,934 --> 00:15:35,700
Who made the comment?
471
00:15:35,735 --> 00:15:36,567
That's the thing.
472
00:15:36,602 --> 00:15:37,251
Carol...
473
00:15:37,287 --> 00:15:38,252
It was Eleanor.
474
00:15:38,288 --> 00:15:39,364
Eleanor who?
475
00:15:39,388 --> 00:15:41,539
It was Eleanor Bartlet.
476
00:15:46,546 --> 00:15:48,808
Hey, it's C.J.
477
00:15:48,832 --> 00:15:51,232
Toby, it's not that we don't
understand your predicament,
478
00:15:51,267 --> 00:15:52,300
but I'm telling you
479
00:15:52,335 --> 00:15:54,479
the Commission will not
be credible with our people
480
00:15:54,503 --> 00:15:57,171
unless they know there's
someone on it who's a friend of labor.
481
00:15:57,207 --> 00:15:58,250
And a friend of seniors.
482
00:15:58,274 --> 00:15:59,606
The President's
a friend of labor
483
00:15:59,642 --> 00:16:01,642
a friend of seniors, a
friend of small animals.
484
00:16:01,677 --> 00:16:02,643
Toby...
485
00:16:02,678 --> 00:16:04,011
We're running
out of time, Lenny.
486
00:16:04,047 --> 00:16:06,113
We announced this thing
at the State of the Union.
487
00:16:06,149 --> 00:16:07,189
We've got to get it going.
488
00:16:07,217 --> 00:16:08,794
The State of the
Union's your problem.
489
00:16:08,818 --> 00:16:10,818
Nobody brought us in.
490
00:16:10,854 --> 00:16:12,164
And I, for one, am not sure
491
00:16:12,188 --> 00:16:14,700
I see a need for
emergency-like speed. Really?
492
00:16:14,724 --> 00:16:17,441
If current economic conditions
continue... Forever? You mean,
493
00:16:17,476 --> 00:16:19,038
if we never have another
recession ever again?
494
00:16:19,062 --> 00:16:20,539
Then the fund can
withstand all of 30 years
495
00:16:20,563 --> 00:16:21,529
before going bankrupt.
496
00:16:21,564 --> 00:16:23,342
Unfortunately, the
actuarial tables say
497
00:16:23,366 --> 00:16:26,651
I won't be dead yet.
498
00:16:26,686 --> 00:16:29,153
Guys, Gillette's a
tough needle to thread.
499
00:16:29,188 --> 00:16:31,422
I want to know that
we have your trust;
500
00:16:31,458 --> 00:16:34,725
that whoever we do get
will look out for your interests,
501
00:16:34,761 --> 00:16:37,829
and that you therefore will
support the Commission.
502
00:16:41,017 --> 00:16:42,745
Can I assume from
your total silence
503
00:16:42,769 --> 00:16:44,663
and blank faces that
you're all with me?
504
00:16:44,687 --> 00:16:47,738
Maybe if we talk some more.
505
00:16:47,773 --> 00:16:50,191
Oh, could we?
506
00:16:50,226 --> 00:16:51,192
Josh. C.J., listen...
507
00:16:51,227 --> 00:16:52,193
She didn't?
508
00:16:52,228 --> 00:16:53,773
No. Leo's going to
need to talk to her.
509
00:16:53,797 --> 00:16:54,940
In the meantime,
510
00:16:54,964 --> 00:16:57,509
you should start to walk
back some of what you said...
511
00:16:57,533 --> 00:16:58,599
There's something stickier
512
00:16:58,634 --> 00:17:00,245
than the support I gave
her in the press room.
513
00:17:00,269 --> 00:17:01,280
What?
514
00:17:01,304 --> 00:17:03,137
Danny Concannon's
quoting Eleanor Bartlet.
515
00:17:03,173 --> 00:17:05,707
She said, "My father won't
fire the Surgeon General.
516
00:17:05,742 --> 00:17:06,919
He would never do that."
517
00:17:06,943 --> 00:17:07,953
Eleanor? Yeah.
518
00:17:07,977 --> 00:17:09,110
You mean Zoey.
519
00:17:09,162 --> 00:17:10,945
No, it was Eleanor.
520
00:17:14,967 --> 00:17:17,034
They're trying to
export their way
521
00:17:17,069 --> 00:17:18,703
out of their own
economic problems.
522
00:17:18,738 --> 00:17:19,704
Yes, sir.
523
00:17:19,739 --> 00:17:21,822
And by dumping
low-priced steel on the U.S.,
524
00:17:21,858 --> 00:17:23,457
you know what
they're asking for?
525
00:17:23,510 --> 00:17:24,809
A protectionist response?
526
00:17:24,844 --> 00:17:27,189
They're begging for a
protectionist response.
527
00:17:27,213 --> 00:17:29,257
Steel and mining
employ 170,000 workers.
528
00:17:29,281 --> 00:17:30,726
They're not going to sit around
529
00:17:30,750 --> 00:17:32,828
while discount steel
comes flying into...
530
00:17:32,852 --> 00:17:33,818
How you doing?
531
00:17:33,853 --> 00:17:35,464
They're going to
want retaliatory tariffs
532
00:17:35,488 --> 00:17:36,699
and you know what that means?
533
00:17:36,723 --> 00:17:38,868
A return to Smoot-Hawley
and the Great Depression.
534
00:17:38,892 --> 00:17:41,025
A return to Smoot-Hawley
and the Great Depression.
535
00:17:41,060 --> 00:17:43,038
You should go to Japan
and tell them that, sir.
536
00:17:43,062 --> 00:17:46,564
Charlie. Sir.
537
00:17:46,599 --> 00:17:49,200
Leo, I'm walking over to
the press and telling them
538
00:17:49,235 --> 00:17:50,912
the retaliatory
tariffs are going
539
00:17:50,936 --> 00:17:53,870
to cost American tax payers
$800,000 for every job saved.
540
00:17:53,906 --> 00:17:56,440
We're not taking questions.
Let's get in the car.
541
00:17:56,475 --> 00:17:57,475
What's going on?
542
00:17:57,510 --> 00:17:59,042
Eleanor made a
comment on the record
543
00:17:59,078 --> 00:18:00,877
and you can't answer
questions right now.
544
00:18:00,913 --> 00:18:02,891
Eleanor? You mean Zoey.
545
00:18:02,915 --> 00:18:04,748
It was Eleanor.
546
00:18:04,783 --> 00:18:06,183
When did this happen?
547
00:18:06,219 --> 00:18:07,585
About six hours ago.
548
00:18:07,620 --> 00:18:09,731
Why didn't you tell
me six hours ago?
549
00:18:09,755 --> 00:18:12,373
'Cause I didn't want you
crash-landing the plane.
550
00:18:12,408 --> 00:18:15,075
Let's get in the car.
551
00:18:15,111 --> 00:18:17,011
Welcome back, Mr. President.
552
00:18:31,177 --> 00:18:32,788
Josh, is there
anything to suggest
553
00:18:32,812 --> 00:18:34,657
that there are a significant
number of people
554
00:18:34,681 --> 00:18:35,858
who are inclined to smoke pot
555
00:18:35,882 --> 00:18:37,492
but don't because
it's against the law?
556
00:18:37,516 --> 00:18:38,616
No.
557
00:18:38,651 --> 00:18:40,563
Then why do you think
if it were decriminalized
558
00:18:40,587 --> 00:18:42,164
there'd be a sudden
stampede of people
559
00:18:42,188 --> 00:18:43,298
showing up to work stoned,
560
00:18:43,322 --> 00:18:45,590
dragging down the economy
and clearing supermarket aisles
561
00:18:45,625 --> 00:18:46,702
of Pringles and Twinkies?
562
00:18:46,726 --> 00:18:48,136
That's not a reason
to make it legal.
563
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:49,171
In a free society
564
00:18:49,195 --> 00:18:50,940
you don't need a reason
to make something legal.
565
00:18:50,964 --> 00:18:52,575
You need a reason to
make something illegal.
566
00:18:52,599 --> 00:18:54,610
Donna, parents are keeping
drugs away from their kids
567
00:18:54,634 --> 00:18:55,600
with a whip and a chair.
568
00:18:55,635 --> 00:18:56,835
It doesn't help them out if...
569
00:18:56,869 --> 00:18:57,835
Yeah.
570
00:18:57,870 --> 00:18:59,570
That's okay, it's
just me talking.
571
00:18:59,606 --> 00:19:01,005
The President's back.
572
00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:02,272
Does he want to see me?
573
00:19:02,308 --> 00:19:03,308
Yeah.
574
00:19:06,980 --> 00:19:08,523
Welcome back, Mr. President.
575
00:19:08,547 --> 00:19:09,513
Thank you.
576
00:19:09,548 --> 00:19:11,193
I've had it, C.J.,
I've absolutely had it!
577
00:19:11,217 --> 00:19:13,383
What the hell is Danny
Concannon doing calling my kids?
578
00:19:13,419 --> 00:19:15,163
Mr. President... He
knows better than that.
579
00:19:15,187 --> 00:19:16,487
They all know
better than that...
580
00:19:16,522 --> 00:19:17,622
Sir, he didn't...
581
00:19:17,657 --> 00:19:19,657
C.J., you're going to
suspend his credentials
582
00:19:19,692 --> 00:19:21,425
for six months and
I don't give a damn.
583
00:19:21,460 --> 00:19:23,127
His paper wants to
cover the President,
584
00:19:23,162 --> 00:19:24,394
they can send someone else.
585
00:19:24,430 --> 00:19:26,308
Mr. President,
Danny didn't call her.
586
00:19:26,332 --> 00:19:28,265
I was told it was Danny.
587
00:19:28,301 --> 00:19:32,086
Yes, sir; she called him.
588
00:19:35,891 --> 00:19:38,708
She called him?
589
00:19:41,780 --> 00:19:45,499
Good evening, welcome
back, Mr. President.
590
00:19:49,205 --> 00:19:52,106
The Allman Brothers, Josh?
591
00:19:52,141 --> 00:19:54,492
How was the flight, sir?
592
00:19:54,527 --> 00:19:57,695
Tokyo is willing to
show economic restraint
593
00:19:57,730 --> 00:20:00,931
in exchange for a
good fielding short-stop
594
00:20:00,967 --> 00:20:03,066
and a left-handed reliever.
595
00:20:04,737 --> 00:20:06,937
Who's against us so far?
596
00:20:06,972 --> 00:20:09,356
The Judiciary Committee,
Government Reform and Oversight
597
00:20:09,392 --> 00:20:10,903
Appropriations...
Why Appropriations?
598
00:20:10,927 --> 00:20:12,693
They control the
Surgeon General's budget.
599
00:20:12,728 --> 00:20:14,277
Who's coming to her defense?
600
00:20:14,313 --> 00:20:17,481
The Cannabis Society,
the Cannabis Coalition,
601
00:20:17,516 --> 00:20:18,693
E Cannabis Unum
602
00:20:18,717 --> 00:20:20,596
The American Hemp League,
603
00:20:20,620 --> 00:20:22,720
and Friends of Mary Jane.
604
00:20:22,755 --> 00:20:23,755
Sir?
605
00:20:23,789 --> 00:20:24,654
Yeah.
606
00:20:24,690 --> 00:20:26,623
Sam's waiting to see you.
607
00:20:26,658 --> 00:20:28,303
Yes, I understand
I've been congratulated
608
00:20:28,327 --> 00:20:30,105
for denouncing a movie
I've never heard of.
609
00:20:30,129 --> 00:20:31,257
Yes, sir.
610
00:20:31,281 --> 00:20:32,825
Well, I got to
hand it to you guys.
611
00:20:32,849 --> 00:20:34,426
You've pulled
off a political first.
612
00:20:34,450 --> 00:20:37,118
You've managed to win me
the support of the Christian right
613
00:20:37,153 --> 00:20:39,348
and the Cheech and Chong
fan club in the same day.
614
00:20:39,372 --> 00:20:40,921
Leo's seeing her tomorrow.
615
00:20:40,957 --> 00:20:42,823
Anything else?
616
00:20:42,858 --> 00:20:43,891
No, sir.
617
00:20:43,927 --> 00:20:44,908
Thank you.
618
00:20:44,944 --> 00:20:46,004
Thank you, Mr. President.
619
00:20:46,028 --> 00:20:47,194
Thank you, Mr. President.
620
00:20:48,631 --> 00:20:50,264
Charlie.
621
00:20:50,299 --> 00:20:52,299
Yes, sir?
622
00:20:52,334 --> 00:20:54,601
Would you arrange
for my middle daughter
623
00:20:54,637 --> 00:20:57,671
to come see me at her
earliest possible convenience?
624
00:20:57,706 --> 00:21:00,141
Yes, sir.
625
00:21:00,176 --> 00:21:01,776
Ah, screw her convenience.
626
00:21:01,811 --> 00:21:03,244
Get her ass down here.
627
00:21:22,814 --> 00:21:24,748
Yeah.
628
00:21:24,783 --> 00:21:26,784
What's this note?
629
00:21:26,819 --> 00:21:27,996
That note? Yeah.
630
00:21:28,020 --> 00:21:30,048
It says that we should stand
by the Surgeon General.
631
00:21:30,072 --> 00:21:33,674
Actually it says we should
stand by the "Sturgeon" General.
632
00:21:33,709 --> 00:21:34,675
Does it?
633
00:21:34,710 --> 00:21:35,676
Yeah.
634
00:21:35,711 --> 00:21:36,910
I meant Surgeon General.
635
00:21:36,945 --> 00:21:38,824
Well, I think we should
stand by her, too.
636
00:21:38,848 --> 00:21:40,726
I just wanted to make
sure we were agreed
637
00:21:40,750 --> 00:21:43,033
that smoked white fish
was pretty much on its own.
638
00:21:43,068 --> 00:21:44,279
Toby? Yeah.
639
00:21:44,303 --> 00:21:45,252
She's here?
640
00:21:45,288 --> 00:21:46,687
In the lobby.
641
00:21:46,722 --> 00:21:48,539
You're with the ratings people?
642
00:21:48,574 --> 00:21:49,540
Soon.
643
00:21:49,575 --> 00:21:50,541
What's the food for?
644
00:21:50,576 --> 00:21:52,488
Today's attempt at
insuring our future.
645
00:21:52,512 --> 00:21:53,477
What's your plan?
646
00:21:53,513 --> 00:21:54,790
The first thing I have to do
647
00:21:54,814 --> 00:21:57,180
is be nice to a liberal
Democratic congresswoman.
648
00:21:57,216 --> 00:21:58,482
Will that be hard?
649
00:21:58,518 --> 00:22:01,519
Well, it was when I
was married to her.
650
00:22:01,554 --> 00:22:03,854
Good to see you;
thanks for coming.
651
00:22:03,890 --> 00:22:04,890
You look fantastic.
652
00:22:04,924 --> 00:22:05,890
Thank you.
653
00:22:05,925 --> 00:22:07,357
How've you been, Sam?
654
00:22:07,393 --> 00:22:08,358
Sam's great.
655
00:22:08,394 --> 00:22:09,527
Fit as a fiddle, Andy.
656
00:22:09,562 --> 00:22:11,395
Although, to tell you
the truth, I found...
657
00:22:11,431 --> 00:22:12,863
Nobody cares.
658
00:22:12,899 --> 00:22:14,131
Yeah.
659
00:22:14,166 --> 00:22:16,233
Hi.
660
00:22:18,103 --> 00:22:19,147
How you doing?
661
00:22:19,171 --> 00:22:20,404
Congresswoman Wyatt.
662
00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:21,717
Yes, indeed.
663
00:22:21,741 --> 00:22:24,542
You are growing into
that title very nicely.
664
00:22:24,577 --> 00:22:26,811
This is going
someplace hysterical.
665
00:22:26,846 --> 00:22:27,812
Yeah.
666
00:22:27,847 --> 00:22:30,180
Labor wants Gillette
on the Commission.
667
00:22:30,215 --> 00:22:31,226
Yes.
668
00:22:31,250 --> 00:22:32,260
So does the AARP. Yes.
669
00:22:32,284 --> 00:22:33,495
It's important to them. Yes.
670
00:22:33,519 --> 00:22:34,485
You know why?
671
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:35,697
'Cause they've been
suspicious of the Commission
672
00:22:35,721 --> 00:22:36,832
since you announced it
673
00:22:36,856 --> 00:22:38,801
and want one of their people
protecting their interests.
674
00:22:38,825 --> 00:22:39,790
We're one of their people.
675
00:22:39,826 --> 00:22:42,927
Have you had an easy
time convincing them of that
676
00:22:42,962 --> 00:22:45,095
since you announced
the Commission?
677
00:22:45,130 --> 00:22:46,664
No, but I bring you here
678
00:22:46,699 --> 00:22:48,544
and we sit, and we have coffee
679
00:22:48,568 --> 00:22:49,711
and we have Danish
680
00:22:49,735 --> 00:22:52,169
in the hope that
calmer, and dare I say
681
00:22:52,204 --> 00:22:53,637
prettier heads prevail.
682
00:22:53,673 --> 00:22:56,106
Oh, how I miss
patronizing sexist Toby.
683
00:22:56,141 --> 00:22:57,808
I was referring to myself.
684
00:22:57,843 --> 00:23:00,277
You don't want to ask Gillette?
685
00:23:00,312 --> 00:23:01,278
No.
686
00:23:01,313 --> 00:23:03,347
'Cause you think
he might say no?
687
00:23:03,382 --> 00:23:05,733
Right; this is really
important, Andy.
688
00:23:05,768 --> 00:23:06,750
Can you help us?
689
00:23:06,786 --> 00:23:07,818
No.
690
00:23:07,853 --> 00:23:09,787
Toby?
691
00:23:09,822 --> 00:23:12,088
Close the door.
692
00:23:15,561 --> 00:23:18,428
Put the Danish down.
693
00:23:18,464 --> 00:23:19,596
Dial M. Yeah.
694
00:23:19,632 --> 00:23:20,597
A fine film.
695
00:23:20,633 --> 00:23:21,865
I know it well.
696
00:23:21,900 --> 00:23:25,402
Ray Milland, Grace
Kelly, Robert Cummings.
697
00:23:25,437 --> 00:23:26,403
He likes the part
698
00:23:26,438 --> 00:23:27,949
where the guy looks for the key.
699
00:23:27,973 --> 00:23:29,506
And what was the
other one about?
700
00:23:29,542 --> 00:23:30,785
Prince of New York? Yeah.
701
00:23:30,809 --> 00:23:33,443
It's an updated version
of Dostoyevsky's The Idiot,
702
00:23:33,479 --> 00:23:36,613
which tells the story of a
Christ-like epileptic young man
703
00:23:36,649 --> 00:23:37,747
who embodies goodness
704
00:23:37,783 --> 00:23:40,400
but encounters sex, crime
and family dysfunction.
705
00:23:40,436 --> 00:23:42,547
It's hard to image why you
didn't think the President
706
00:23:42,571 --> 00:23:43,648
would enjoy that, Charlie.
707
00:23:43,672 --> 00:23:45,506
Well, he would've
especially enjoyed the scene
708
00:23:45,541 --> 00:23:47,486
where the Prince Myshkin
character has a seizure
709
00:23:47,510 --> 00:23:48,786
while engaging in erotic fantasy
710
00:23:48,810 --> 00:23:49,776
in a Long Island church.
711
00:23:49,811 --> 00:23:51,678
Charlie, please don't
say the word "erotic"
712
00:23:51,713 --> 00:23:52,912
in the Oval Office.
713
00:23:52,948 --> 00:23:54,659
I'd be happy not to
say any of those words
714
00:23:54,683 --> 00:23:55,649
anywhere ever again.
715
00:23:55,684 --> 00:23:57,262
John Williams as Chief
Inspector Hubbard.
716
00:23:57,286 --> 00:23:58,252
Not to mention...
717
00:23:58,287 --> 00:23:59,887
Excuse me.
718
00:23:59,921 --> 00:24:00,887
Ellie.
719
00:24:00,922 --> 00:24:05,208
I was told my father
wanted to see me.
720
00:24:09,615 --> 00:24:11,426
Let me ask you this:
721
00:24:11,450 --> 00:24:14,384
Red meat has been found
to cause cancer in white rats.
722
00:24:14,420 --> 00:24:17,187
Maraschino cherries have
been found to cause cancer
723
00:24:17,222 --> 00:24:18,455
in white rats.
724
00:24:18,490 --> 00:24:21,659
Cellular phones have been
found to cause cancer in white rats.
725
00:24:21,694 --> 00:24:23,427
Has anyone
examined the possibility
726
00:24:23,462 --> 00:24:25,829
that cancer might be
hereditary in white rats?
727
00:24:25,865 --> 00:24:27,197
Let me tell you something.
728
00:24:27,232 --> 00:24:29,399
I'm not 100% sure
we've ruled that out.
729
00:24:29,435 --> 00:24:31,602
Dr. Griffith.
730
00:24:31,637 --> 00:24:33,370
I'm on.
731
00:24:36,809 --> 00:24:38,475
Congratulations, Milly.
732
00:24:38,510 --> 00:24:40,611
You're now the pamphlet girl
733
00:24:40,646 --> 00:24:43,547
for every right wing
fund-raising cause.
734
00:24:43,583 --> 00:24:45,682
That interview's got
to be worth at least
735
00:24:45,718 --> 00:24:47,434
20-30 million bucks
in contributions
736
00:24:47,469 --> 00:24:49,836
from people who think
you're going to distribute
737
00:24:49,872 --> 00:24:51,472
dime bags of Hawaiian sens
738
00:24:51,507 --> 00:24:52,856
at junior high schools,
739
00:24:52,892 --> 00:24:55,525
along with condoms
and fornication manuals.
740
00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:56,755
Can I say, I was never given
741
00:24:56,779 --> 00:24:58,757
a fornication manual, so...
742
00:24:58,781 --> 00:24:59,747
You think this is funny?
743
00:24:59,782 --> 00:25:01,498
I think that we're spending
744
00:25:01,533 --> 00:25:02,599
a billion a year
745
00:25:02,634 --> 00:25:05,268
keeping more than
40,000 people locked up.
746
00:25:05,304 --> 00:25:06,653
That's not your...
747
00:25:06,688 --> 00:25:08,300
I know, that's not
my jurisdiction,
748
00:25:08,324 --> 00:25:10,907
which is why I never
commented on decriminalization.
749
00:25:10,943 --> 00:25:12,187
Six different
committee chairs...
750
00:25:12,211 --> 00:25:13,822
Three in the House,
three in the Senate...
751
00:25:13,846 --> 00:25:15,073
Are all talking about hearings.
752
00:25:15,097 --> 00:25:16,475
What are they going to find?
753
00:25:16,499 --> 00:25:18,165
They don't need
to find anything.
754
00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:20,383
They just need to say
your name and "drugs"
755
00:25:20,418 --> 00:25:22,452
as many times as
possible on television.
756
00:25:22,488 --> 00:25:24,654
I don't think you
said anything wrong.
757
00:25:24,690 --> 00:25:27,574
Nobody with a brain thinks
you did anything wrong.
758
00:25:27,609 --> 00:25:30,071
And I'd like to do the right
thing all the time, but I can't.
759
00:25:30,095 --> 00:25:31,906
I can't let us get
bogged down in this crap.
760
00:25:31,930 --> 00:25:32,941
Government will stop.
761
00:25:32,965 --> 00:25:34,459
This'll be what we
do for two months
762
00:25:34,483 --> 00:25:36,261
and there are more
important things than that.
763
00:25:36,285 --> 00:25:38,735
I'll take the heat from
the First Lady, but I want
764
00:25:38,770 --> 00:25:40,253
your resignation
by 8:00 tonight,
765
00:25:40,289 --> 00:25:42,539
or the President's
going to fire you.
766
00:25:42,574 --> 00:25:45,225
I've got a meeting.
767
00:25:49,665 --> 00:25:52,599
Thanks.
768
00:25:52,635 --> 00:25:54,951
Zoey said you were
thinking about oncology.
769
00:25:54,986 --> 00:25:57,771
Excuse me?
770
00:25:57,806 --> 00:26:00,123
Zoey said you were
thinking about oncology.
771
00:26:00,158 --> 00:26:03,560
Yeah... or neurology.
772
00:26:03,595 --> 00:26:06,563
He's just tied up in this
meeting down the hall.
773
00:26:06,598 --> 00:26:07,564
I'm fine.
774
00:26:07,599 --> 00:26:09,561
They said he should
be back any minute.
775
00:26:09,585 --> 00:26:11,902
I'm... good. Yeah.
776
00:26:11,937 --> 00:26:14,888
You like medical school?
777
00:26:14,924 --> 00:26:17,791
I do.
778
00:26:17,826 --> 00:26:20,678
I like my professors.
779
00:26:20,713 --> 00:26:22,590
I have a
pathophysiology professor
780
00:26:22,614 --> 00:26:24,259
who teaches
clinical skills by...
781
00:26:24,283 --> 00:26:25,523
Eagle's moving.
782
00:26:25,551 --> 00:26:27,228
$800,000 in consumer costs
783
00:26:27,252 --> 00:26:28,485
per job saved.
784
00:26:28,521 --> 00:26:30,220
Retaliatory tariffs
785
00:26:30,255 --> 00:26:31,866
on steel imports are a disaster.
786
00:26:31,890 --> 00:26:34,925
Anyone wants to check my math,
they're more than welcome to.
787
00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:37,256
Anybody wants to shove
the Golden Gate Bridge
788
00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:39,980
up Japan's ass, they're more
than welcome to do that, too.
789
00:26:40,015 --> 00:26:42,283
Mr. President?
790
00:26:42,318 --> 00:26:44,951
Oh... thank you.
791
00:26:44,987 --> 00:26:47,588
Ellie, thanks for coming.
792
00:26:47,623 --> 00:26:48,903
Hi, Dad.
793
00:26:50,859 --> 00:26:52,159
Come on in.
794
00:26:54,796 --> 00:26:56,241
Did you get down here okay?
795
00:26:56,265 --> 00:26:57,364
Yeah.
796
00:26:57,399 --> 00:27:00,183
Did you take an airplane?
797
00:27:00,218 --> 00:27:01,596
An airplane? Yeah.
798
00:27:01,620 --> 00:27:02,586
No.
799
00:27:02,621 --> 00:27:03,631
A helicopter?
800
00:27:03,655 --> 00:27:04,721
No, the agents drove me.
801
00:27:04,757 --> 00:27:07,018
That's 'cause you go to
school at Johns Hopkins, right?
802
00:27:07,042 --> 00:27:08,008
Dad...
803
00:27:08,043 --> 00:27:09,488
And Johns Hopkins
is in Baltimore.
804
00:27:09,512 --> 00:27:13,530
I'm asking 'cause Baltimore's
a 45-minute car ride
805
00:27:13,565 --> 00:27:15,182
from Washington, D.C.,
806
00:27:15,217 --> 00:27:17,000
and we hardly see you anymore.
807
00:27:17,035 --> 00:27:19,069
So I thought either
you transferred
808
00:27:19,104 --> 00:27:20,548
to a different medical school;
809
00:27:20,572 --> 00:27:21,816
they moved Johns Hopkins,
810
00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:23,022
or they moved Baltimore.
811
00:27:23,058 --> 00:27:24,558
Are any of those things true?
812
00:27:24,593 --> 00:27:25,575
No.
813
00:27:25,611 --> 00:27:26,971
Okay, and this
is accurate, right?
814
00:27:26,995 --> 00:27:30,296
This quote: "My father won't
fire the Surgeon General.
815
00:27:30,332 --> 00:27:31,865
He would never do that."
816
00:27:31,901 --> 00:27:33,066
Yes.
817
00:27:33,101 --> 00:27:36,085
Eleanor...
818
00:27:36,121 --> 00:27:38,772
when you put your head
down, your hair falls in your face
819
00:27:38,807 --> 00:27:40,006
and I can't see your face
820
00:27:40,042 --> 00:27:41,719
and I can't hear
what you're saying.
821
00:27:41,743 --> 00:27:43,209
Now look at me and talk to me.
822
00:27:43,245 --> 00:27:46,480
Yes, the quote is accurate.
823
00:27:46,515 --> 00:27:47,848
What the hell are you doing
824
00:27:47,883 --> 00:27:49,193
talking to a reporter?
825
00:27:49,217 --> 00:27:50,612
I have set up I was...
826
00:27:50,636 --> 00:27:52,319
monumental, unprecedented,
827
00:27:52,354 --> 00:27:55,255
unbreakable rules about
my children and the press.
828
00:27:55,290 --> 00:27:56,968
I have gotten White
House reporters
829
00:27:56,992 --> 00:27:59,226
transferred to Yemen
830
00:27:59,261 --> 00:28:01,711
for approaching
Zoey and Elizabeth.
831
00:28:01,746 --> 00:28:03,246
It is the law!
832
00:28:08,103 --> 00:28:10,115
Well, I'm sure before
you gave the quote,
833
00:28:10,139 --> 00:28:12,472
you cleared it with the
Communications Office.
834
00:28:12,508 --> 00:28:15,375
I'm sure you went over the
exact wording with C.J. Cregg
835
00:28:15,411 --> 00:28:17,677
and coordinated it with
White House strategy
836
00:28:17,712 --> 00:28:19,307
so that the timing was right
837
00:28:19,331 --> 00:28:20,374
in the news cycle.
838
00:28:20,398 --> 00:28:21,843
I'm certain you consulted
839
00:28:21,867 --> 00:28:23,711
the appropriate party leadership
840
00:28:23,735 --> 00:28:26,080
because you're a pretty
knowledgeable operative,
841
00:28:26,104 --> 00:28:27,849
having spent so
much time with me.
842
00:28:27,873 --> 00:28:28,839
Ellie...
843
00:28:28,874 --> 00:28:30,385
What? Dad, she was... she was...
844
00:28:30,409 --> 00:28:31,641
Pick your head up.
845
00:28:31,676 --> 00:28:33,894
She was doing exactly
what she is supposed to do.
846
00:28:35,697 --> 00:28:37,014
She... I'm sorry.
847
00:28:37,049 --> 00:28:38,898
She was asked a question
848
00:28:38,934 --> 00:28:41,885
and she said what
she knew to be true.
849
00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:45,155
And when you start
firing doctors for that,
850
00:28:45,190 --> 00:28:46,506
you've crossed a line somewhere.
851
00:28:46,541 --> 00:28:48,369
There is politics
involved in this, Ellie,
852
00:28:48,393 --> 00:28:50,677
and you knew it would
make me unhappy
853
00:28:50,713 --> 00:28:52,674
and that's why you
did it and that's cheap.
854
00:28:52,698 --> 00:28:54,831
I didn't do it to make
you unhappy, Dad.
855
00:28:54,866 --> 00:28:56,093
You didn't do it to
make me happy.
856
00:28:56,117 --> 00:28:58,251
I don't know how to
make you happy, Dad.
857
00:28:58,286 --> 00:29:00,603
For that, you got to
talk to Zoey or Liz.
858
00:29:04,843 --> 00:29:08,044
Okay, let's drop it.
859
00:29:11,716 --> 00:29:14,033
Mom gets back first
thing in the morning,
860
00:29:14,069 --> 00:29:15,969
and we're running
a movie tonight
861
00:29:16,004 --> 00:29:17,504
if you want to stay over.
862
00:29:17,539 --> 00:29:20,140
I can stay over
if you want me to.
863
00:29:20,175 --> 00:29:22,659
Yeah, thanks.
864
00:29:36,041 --> 00:29:38,391
I go out...?
865
00:29:38,427 --> 00:29:40,794
That door over there.
866
00:29:49,271 --> 00:29:50,570
Mr. President?
867
00:29:50,606 --> 00:29:51,571
Yeah.
868
00:29:51,607 --> 00:29:52,939
The Labor Secretary.
869
00:29:52,974 --> 00:29:54,135
Send him in.
870
00:29:54,159 --> 00:29:55,992
Charlie...
871
00:29:57,279 --> 00:29:58,990
Give me just a
minute, would you?
872
00:29:59,014 --> 00:30:00,547
Yes, sir.
873
00:30:14,980 --> 00:30:16,663
Andy... Hang, on a second.
874
00:30:16,698 --> 00:30:18,347
Look... Hang on a second!
875
00:30:18,383 --> 00:30:20,194
No, I will not hang
on! Yes, you will.
876
00:30:20,218 --> 00:30:21,618
You will summon your strength
877
00:30:21,653 --> 00:30:23,587
and you will listen
to me for a moment.
878
00:30:23,622 --> 00:30:25,884
You guys made a hairpin
turn at the State of the Union
879
00:30:25,908 --> 00:30:27,819
and you did it without
consulting a whole lot
880
00:30:27,843 --> 00:30:30,188
of members of the liberal
wing of the Democratic Party.
881
00:30:30,212 --> 00:30:32,640
Sad to say, Andrea, there
aren't a whole lot of members
882
00:30:32,664 --> 00:30:34,675
of the liberal wing of
the Democratic Party.
883
00:30:34,699 --> 00:30:36,444
So you'll forgive some
people if they're concerned
884
00:30:36,468 --> 00:30:38,012
that one of the options
you're going to explore
885
00:30:38,036 --> 00:30:39,535
is raising the retirement age.
886
00:30:39,571 --> 00:30:41,482
Andy, people are
living decades longer
887
00:30:41,506 --> 00:30:43,117
than anyone anticipated in 1935.
888
00:30:43,141 --> 00:30:44,307
So you are considering.
889
00:30:44,343 --> 00:30:45,859
We want to consider everything,
890
00:30:45,894 --> 00:30:47,805
but we can't consider
anything unless...
891
00:30:47,829 --> 00:30:49,696
Why does this have
to happen in secret?
892
00:30:49,731 --> 00:30:52,331
'Cause it's the only
way it's going to happen.
893
00:30:52,367 --> 00:30:54,779
'Cause you can't...
solve Social Security
894
00:30:54,803 --> 00:30:57,937
and ask people to run for
election at the same time.
895
00:30:57,973 --> 00:31:00,590
So why not give
politicians some cloud cover
896
00:31:00,625 --> 00:31:02,903
and let them be
lawmakers for a while?
897
00:31:02,927 --> 00:31:05,139
15 people in a room
with the door closed.
898
00:31:05,163 --> 00:31:07,108
Seven Democrats,
seven Republicans
899
00:31:07,132 --> 00:31:09,816
and the President of the United
States who will not have a vote
900
00:31:09,851 --> 00:31:11,184
and they walk out of that room
901
00:31:11,220 --> 00:31:13,198
and with one voice, they
make a recommendation
902
00:31:13,222 --> 00:31:14,765
to Congress and
the American people.
903
00:31:14,789 --> 00:31:18,208
And nobody knows who was where.
904
00:31:23,282 --> 00:31:26,249
The only way it's going
to happen is in secret.
905
00:31:26,285 --> 00:31:28,279
And the only way
it's going to happen is
906
00:31:28,303 --> 00:31:31,154
if all the sides are confident
in their representation.
907
00:31:31,190 --> 00:31:32,639
Otherwise, it's dead.
908
00:31:32,674 --> 00:31:35,925
And so, I need Seth
Gillette on the Commission,
909
00:31:35,961 --> 00:31:38,762
but I can't ask him,
'cause if he says no,
910
00:31:38,797 --> 00:31:40,764
there'll be no Commission!
911
00:31:44,385 --> 00:31:48,855
Anyway... I appreciate your
coming down and talking to me.
912
00:31:51,459 --> 00:31:53,927
I like when you ask
for my help, Toby.
913
00:31:53,962 --> 00:31:55,306
Listen, I read in the paper
914
00:31:55,330 --> 00:31:57,008
that I'm on the
benefit committee
915
00:31:57,032 --> 00:31:58,777
for the Child
Leukemia Foundation.
916
00:31:58,801 --> 00:32:00,100
Yeah, I saw that, too.
917
00:32:00,135 --> 00:32:01,946
Why do you suppose
the paper wrote that?
918
00:32:01,970 --> 00:32:03,870
I don't know; I guess
they must have gotten it
919
00:32:03,906 --> 00:32:05,405
from that press
release I sent them.
920
00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:06,584
I guess they must have.
921
00:32:06,608 --> 00:32:08,953
You didn't think it'd be a
better idea to ask me first?
922
00:32:08,977 --> 00:32:10,288
I really didn't. Interesting.
923
00:32:10,312 --> 00:32:12,312
I've found that when I
skip over that first step
924
00:32:12,347 --> 00:32:13,713
and move right
to the second step,
925
00:32:13,748 --> 00:32:15,648
it becomes a lot harder
for people to say no.
926
00:32:15,684 --> 00:32:18,084
Listen, you'll have fun,
you'll look nice in your tuxedo,
927
00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:21,087
you don't have to
stay, you don't have...
928
00:32:22,424 --> 00:32:23,690
Toby?
929
00:32:23,725 --> 00:32:26,242
Skip over the first step and
move right to the second.
930
00:32:26,277 --> 00:32:27,977
Toby.
931
00:32:28,013 --> 00:32:29,312
Hey, Andy.
932
00:32:29,347 --> 00:32:30,313
Hey, C.J.
933
00:32:30,348 --> 00:32:31,993
Toby, when you have a minute,
934
00:32:32,017 --> 00:32:33,583
can you stop by
the office and...
935
00:32:33,618 --> 00:32:35,751
What?
936
00:32:35,787 --> 00:32:37,265
C.J., tomorrow
morning, I want you
937
00:32:37,289 --> 00:32:38,999
to announce that
Seth Gillette's joined
938
00:32:39,023 --> 00:32:41,308
the Blue Ribbon Commission
on Social Security.
939
00:32:41,343 --> 00:32:43,154
Toby... Make sure
the press knows
940
00:32:43,178 --> 00:32:45,089
the Senator put the
Democratic Party
941
00:32:45,113 --> 00:32:46,529
above personal differences
942
00:32:46,565 --> 00:32:48,309
and that he put
people above all.
943
00:32:48,333 --> 00:32:50,445
Make sure they
know that he's a patriot
944
00:32:50,469 --> 00:32:52,985
and when the President
asked him to serve,
945
00:32:53,021 --> 00:32:55,450
Senator Gillette
answered the call.
946
00:32:55,474 --> 00:32:57,607
Did he?
947
00:32:57,643 --> 00:32:58,674
Yeah. I just saw it
948
00:32:58,710 --> 00:33:00,977
at your press briefing
tomorrow morning.
949
00:33:02,981 --> 00:33:05,448
Okay, but this is really
950
00:33:05,484 --> 00:33:07,767
the last thing I'm
doing before I quit.
951
00:33:07,802 --> 00:33:10,370
Okay.
952
00:33:10,406 --> 00:33:13,890
It's like checking the
sugar and fat content
953
00:33:13,926 --> 00:33:15,625
on a box of cereal.
954
00:33:15,660 --> 00:33:18,494
We bend over backwards
to help parents make choices.
955
00:33:18,530 --> 00:33:20,297
We put V-chips in TVs,
956
00:33:20,332 --> 00:33:23,699
warning labels on records,
TV shows, film ads...
957
00:33:23,735 --> 00:33:24,801
And when we do, we suffer
958
00:33:24,836 --> 00:33:27,070
because our products become
demonized and marginalized,
959
00:33:27,105 --> 00:33:29,605
and every ten years, the
Government asks for something more.
960
00:33:29,641 --> 00:33:32,492
The only reason we have to
come to you every ten years is that
961
00:33:32,527 --> 00:33:34,160
the situation isn't
getting any better.
962
00:33:34,195 --> 00:33:35,928
When's the Government
going to ask the NFL
963
00:33:35,964 --> 00:33:37,263
and the National Hockey League
964
00:33:37,298 --> 00:33:38,848
to put warning labels
on their games?
965
00:33:38,884 --> 00:33:40,361
Can I talk to you?
Sure. Come on.
966
00:33:40,385 --> 00:33:41,785
He's wrong in there, by the way.
967
00:33:41,820 --> 00:33:43,486
The situation hasn't
stayed the same.
968
00:33:43,521 --> 00:33:45,388
There's been a 28%
drop in juvenile crime
969
00:33:45,423 --> 00:33:46,389
the last five years,
970
00:33:46,424 --> 00:33:48,069
ten percent drop in
the overall crime rate.
971
00:33:48,093 --> 00:33:49,237
I don't care. Why?
972
00:33:49,261 --> 00:33:51,594
'Cause the American
Academy of Pediatrics, the AMA,
973
00:33:51,629 --> 00:33:53,830
the American Psychological
Association all say
974
00:33:53,865 --> 00:33:55,943
that watching violence
on TV is bad for kids
975
00:33:55,967 --> 00:33:57,867
and we're going to
listen to the experts.
976
00:33:57,903 --> 00:34:00,114
I'll remember that tomorrow
morning when I read
977
00:34:00,138 --> 00:34:02,283
in the paper the Surgeon
General's been fired.
978
00:34:02,307 --> 00:34:03,673
Remember it whenever you like.
979
00:34:03,708 --> 00:34:04,952
What is he seeing tonight?
980
00:34:04,976 --> 00:34:06,720
Dial M for Murder. Good.
981
00:34:06,744 --> 00:34:08,790
Hitchcock never used
sex or violence in his films.
982
00:34:08,814 --> 00:34:11,064
Yeah. Morgan, the President's
never seen your movie.
983
00:34:11,100 --> 00:34:12,398
He's never heard of your movie.
984
00:34:12,434 --> 00:34:15,134
He has no particular objection
to your movie and you know it.
985
00:34:15,170 --> 00:34:16,581
The Family Values
Leadership Council
986
00:34:16,605 --> 00:34:17,715
seems to see it differently.
987
00:34:17,739 --> 00:34:20,256
Gloriosky, Morgan, the Family
Values Leadership Council
988
00:34:20,291 --> 00:34:22,008
distorted the truth;
stop the presses.
989
00:34:22,044 --> 00:34:23,121
Well, thanks to that ad,
990
00:34:23,145 --> 00:34:24,755
I've got exhibitors
in Mississippi,
991
00:34:24,779 --> 00:34:26,624
Oklahoma and
Alabama pulling the film.
992
00:34:26,648 --> 00:34:27,925
I've read the press
synopsis of the film
993
00:34:27,949 --> 00:34:29,865
and if exhibitors put
you on every screen
994
00:34:29,901 --> 00:34:31,401
of every multiplex
in every mall,
995
00:34:31,436 --> 00:34:32,986
you still wouldn't
do any business
996
00:34:33,021 --> 00:34:34,721
in Mississippi,
Oklahoma or Alabama.
997
00:34:34,756 --> 00:34:36,055
You're an industry expert now?
998
00:34:36,091 --> 00:34:38,658
No, but you are, which explains
a lot to me about Hollywood.
999
00:34:38,693 --> 00:34:40,376
And you know the ad
was going to get you
1000
00:34:40,412 --> 00:34:41,561
more business than you lost
1001
00:34:41,596 --> 00:34:43,946
and that's why you went on
Imus and said what you did.
1002
00:34:43,981 --> 00:34:45,944
I'm here for a Sam
Seaborn scolding?
1003
00:34:45,968 --> 00:34:47,701
Yeah. 'Cause it makes
me crazy, Morgan.
1004
00:34:47,736 --> 00:34:50,420
This is exactly the kind of
thing that should be celebrated
1005
00:34:50,455 --> 00:34:51,787
by First Amendment advocates.
1006
00:34:51,823 --> 00:34:54,224
Charlie was offered a
choice and he made one.
1007
00:34:54,259 --> 00:34:56,459
Why aren't you standing
up and saying, "See it works!
1008
00:34:56,495 --> 00:34:58,711
"You don't need to ban
movies like Prince of New York.
1009
00:34:58,746 --> 00:35:01,848
You just have to choose
not to watch them."
1010
00:35:01,883 --> 00:35:04,350
And, Morgan, you ever call
the President a coward again
1011
00:35:04,385 --> 00:35:05,602
for your own P.R. purposes,
1012
00:35:05,637 --> 00:35:07,020
it's not going to be C.J. Cregg
1013
00:35:07,055 --> 00:35:08,971
you got to deal with,
it's going to be me.
1014
00:35:09,007 --> 00:35:13,509
You understand
what I'm saying, right?
1015
00:35:13,545 --> 00:35:15,579
Yes.
1016
00:35:15,614 --> 00:35:18,665
Now, why don't you go back
to your meeting and show me
1017
00:35:18,700 --> 00:35:20,884
how much you want
to make it up to us?
1018
00:35:33,031 --> 00:35:34,730
Good job.
1019
00:35:57,289 --> 00:35:59,099
Hello?: This isn't good.
1020
00:35:59,123 --> 00:36:00,089
What?
1021
00:36:00,124 --> 00:36:02,625
The President's not talking.
1022
00:36:02,661 --> 00:36:04,294
There's a movie on.
1023
00:36:04,329 --> 00:36:06,223
He usually talks
during the movie.
1024
00:36:06,247 --> 00:36:07,563
Hello?!
1025
00:36:13,789 --> 00:36:14,954
Hello!
1026
00:36:20,495 --> 00:36:21,823
Good evening.
1027
00:36:21,847 --> 00:36:23,813
Good evening, Mr. President.
1028
00:36:23,849 --> 00:36:25,849
I'm sorry about this.
1029
00:36:25,884 --> 00:36:27,017
Yes, sir.
1030
00:36:27,052 --> 00:36:28,112
Is that your resignation?
1031
00:36:28,136 --> 00:36:29,102
Yes, sir.
1032
00:36:29,137 --> 00:36:30,281
Thank you.
1033
00:36:30,305 --> 00:36:32,672
On thinking about
it, I felt your firing me
1034
00:36:32,707 --> 00:36:35,958
would send a dangerous signal
to whomever had my job next.
1035
00:36:35,993 --> 00:36:37,755
Did you not think
that playing down
1036
00:36:37,779 --> 00:36:40,714
the dangers of drug use sent
a dangerous signal as well?
1037
00:36:40,749 --> 00:36:42,766
I do not believe
that is what I did, sir.
1038
00:36:42,801 --> 00:36:46,336
I was asked, by and large,
if marijuana holds the same
1039
00:36:46,371 --> 00:36:48,871
addictive properties
as heroin or LSD.
1040
00:36:48,906 --> 00:36:50,039
It does not.
1041
00:36:50,074 --> 00:36:52,809
I was asked if marijuana
poses a greater health risk
1042
00:36:52,844 --> 00:36:55,812
than nicotine or alcohol,
and in my opinion, it does not.
1043
00:36:55,847 --> 00:36:58,147
And I believe if you
look at the transcript...
1044
00:36:58,183 --> 00:36:59,816
Milly, did you put her up to it?
1045
00:36:59,851 --> 00:37:01,284
Sir?
1046
00:37:01,319 --> 00:37:03,147
"My father won't fire
the Surgeon General.
1047
00:37:03,171 --> 00:37:04,249
He would never do that."
1048
00:37:04,273 --> 00:37:06,266
You didn't put her
up to it? No, sir.
1049
00:37:06,290 --> 00:37:08,485
You didn't pick up the phone
after Josh came to see you
1050
00:37:08,509 --> 00:37:09,921
and say, "Ellie,
it's your godmother.
1051
00:37:09,945 --> 00:37:13,379
Let's stick it to your old man
and paint him into a corner"?
1052
00:37:13,415 --> 00:37:15,765
No, sir.
1053
00:37:23,291 --> 00:37:27,160
Why haven't I ever been
able to get her to like me?
1054
00:37:28,597 --> 00:37:30,897
I'm asking you.
1055
00:37:30,932 --> 00:37:34,100
Sir, I'm not sure
it's appropriate...
1056
00:37:34,136 --> 00:37:36,069
I'm asking you.
1057
00:37:36,104 --> 00:37:37,637
I think you're wrong.
1058
00:37:37,672 --> 00:37:39,355
I'm not.
1059
00:37:39,390 --> 00:37:41,090
She worships you, Mr. President.
1060
00:37:41,125 --> 00:37:42,409
She's mad at me.
1061
00:37:42,444 --> 00:37:43,743
Well, you're mad at her.
1062
00:37:43,779 --> 00:37:45,089
Yes, I am. Sir...
1063
00:37:45,113 --> 00:37:47,814
I was running for President,
where the hell was she?
1064
00:37:47,849 --> 00:37:48,814
She was with us.
1065
00:37:48,850 --> 00:37:50,099
Not like Zoey and Liz.
1066
00:37:50,134 --> 00:37:51,317
Sir...
1067
00:37:51,352 --> 00:37:53,953
She's always belonged to Abbey.
1068
00:37:53,989 --> 00:37:56,489
You frightened her.
1069
00:37:56,525 --> 00:37:59,508
No, I didn't.
1070
00:37:59,544 --> 00:38:00,544
Sir...
1071
00:38:00,579 --> 00:38:01,561
How did I frighten her?
1072
00:38:01,596 --> 00:38:03,746
Jed, look where you're standing!
1073
00:38:03,781 --> 00:38:06,699
I was elected two years
ago, she's 24 years old.
1074
00:38:06,734 --> 00:38:10,519
You've been the king of
whatever room you've walked into
1075
00:38:10,555 --> 00:38:11,688
her entire life.
1076
00:38:11,723 --> 00:38:14,256
It never seemed to
intimidate Zoey or Liz.
1077
00:38:14,292 --> 00:38:17,010
Well, kids are different;
they're not the same.
1078
00:38:17,045 --> 00:38:18,911
You'd be amazed,
you'd be stunned
1079
00:38:18,946 --> 00:38:20,563
at how soon they understand
1080
00:38:20,599 --> 00:38:22,698
they're not their
father's favorite.
1081
00:38:22,734 --> 00:38:24,850
That's not true.
1082
00:38:24,886 --> 00:38:25,868
Sir...
1083
00:38:25,903 --> 00:38:26,853
That's not true.
1084
00:38:26,888 --> 00:38:28,382
Mr. President... No, no, no.
1085
00:38:28,406 --> 00:38:29,788
I will bear
1086
00:38:29,824 --> 00:38:31,636
with the nonsense
of the Christian right
1087
00:38:31,660 --> 00:38:33,421
and the Hollywood
left and the AFL-CIO
1088
00:38:33,445 --> 00:38:36,107
and the AARP and the
Cannabis Society and Japan,
1089
00:38:36,131 --> 00:38:39,315
but I will not stand and
allow someone to tell me
1090
00:38:39,351 --> 00:38:42,785
that I love one of my
children less than the others.
1091
00:38:48,610 --> 00:38:50,577
She's frightened of me?
1092
00:38:51,796 --> 00:38:54,063
She ain't the only one.
1093
00:38:54,099 --> 00:38:57,984
I wanted to be so mad at her.
1094
00:38:58,019 --> 00:39:01,704
I heard the news
and my first thought...
1095
00:39:03,457 --> 00:39:07,443
My God, King
Lear is a good play.
1096
00:39:09,814 --> 00:39:12,766
"My father won't fire
the Surgeon General.
1097
00:39:12,801 --> 00:39:14,934
He would never do that."
1098
00:39:17,205 --> 00:39:20,706
I wanted to be so mad at her...
1099
00:39:20,742 --> 00:39:23,543
but the truth is...
1100
00:39:23,578 --> 00:39:27,580
it's the nicest thing
she's ever said about me.
1101
00:39:31,319 --> 00:39:33,386
Well...
1102
00:39:33,421 --> 00:39:35,055
Good night, sir.
1103
00:39:35,090 --> 00:39:36,090
Good night.
1104
00:39:37,992 --> 00:39:39,759
Hey, Doc.
1105
00:39:39,795 --> 00:39:41,627
Sir.
1106
00:39:41,662 --> 00:39:43,796
I don't accept.
1107
00:39:43,831 --> 00:39:46,649
I'm sorry, sir?
1108
00:39:46,685 --> 00:39:48,417
I don't accept your resignation.
1109
00:39:48,453 --> 00:39:50,553
Sir, I appreciate
that, but Leo's right.
1110
00:39:50,588 --> 00:39:53,422
This shouldn't stop you
from doing the bigger things...
1111
00:39:53,458 --> 00:39:55,424
These are the bigger things.
1112
00:39:55,460 --> 00:39:57,560
I don't accept your resignation.
1113
00:39:57,595 --> 00:39:59,228
You work for me.
1114
00:39:59,264 --> 00:40:01,030
You go when I tell you to.
1115
00:40:06,571 --> 00:40:08,120
You're an excellent role model,
1116
00:40:08,173 --> 00:40:09,472
Mr. President.
1117
00:40:09,507 --> 00:40:10,806
Yes, I know.
1118
00:40:10,841 --> 00:40:12,341
So you're back.
1119
00:40:12,377 --> 00:40:14,860
Yes, indeed.
1120
00:40:19,501 --> 00:40:22,212
Tell C.J. when she gives Milly
1121
00:40:22,236 --> 00:40:24,753
our support on
Monday, she can mean it.
1122
00:40:26,491 --> 00:40:28,658
You know, it's going
to seem to some people
1123
00:40:28,693 --> 00:40:31,344
like you did it 'cause your
daughter asked you to.
1124
00:40:31,379 --> 00:40:32,539
Yeah.
1125
00:40:32,564 --> 00:40:35,147
You know, Josh, I think if
you ever have a daughter,
1126
00:40:35,183 --> 00:40:37,662
you're going to discover
there are worse reasons
1127
00:40:37,686 --> 00:40:39,129
in the world to do something.
1128
00:40:39,153 --> 00:40:41,231
Sit down; we're
coming to the good part.
1129
00:40:41,255 --> 00:40:42,533
What's he doing?
1130
00:40:42,557 --> 00:40:44,868
He's wondering why
that key doesn't fit.
1131
00:40:44,892 --> 00:40:47,760
He's going round to the back
entrance; he stopped again.
1132
00:40:52,133 --> 00:40:53,616
How you doing?
1133
00:40:53,651 --> 00:40:55,301
Hmm?
1134
00:40:55,336 --> 00:40:57,470
I said, how you doing?
1135
00:40:57,505 --> 00:40:59,873
Fine.
1136
00:40:59,925 --> 00:41:03,142
You know, we're coming
up to the good part.
1137
00:41:03,178 --> 00:41:05,156
Dad, people are trying
to watch the movie.
1138
00:41:05,180 --> 00:41:06,796
You want to bet me your tuition
1139
00:41:06,831 --> 00:41:08,915
no one in this room's
going to shush me?
1140
00:41:13,271 --> 00:41:16,222
I hear you're thinking
about ophthalmology.
1141
00:41:16,257 --> 00:41:18,641
Oncology.
1142
00:41:18,676 --> 00:41:20,960
Why do you want to
study people's feet?
1143
00:41:20,995 --> 00:41:22,294
That's podiatry.
1144
00:41:22,330 --> 00:41:24,280
Then what's children's medicine?
1145
00:41:24,316 --> 00:41:25,281
Pediatrics.
1146
00:41:25,317 --> 00:41:27,066
I thought it was obstetrics.
1147
00:41:27,101 --> 00:41:28,417
That's pregnant women.
1148
00:41:28,452 --> 00:41:30,102
And what's the study of feet?
1149
00:41:30,138 --> 00:41:32,572
Dad, you're not going
to get me to laugh.
1150
00:41:32,607 --> 00:41:34,606
Really?
1151
00:41:48,172 --> 00:41:52,157
The only thing you ever
had to do to make me happy
1152
00:41:52,193 --> 00:41:55,127
was come home at
the end of the day.
1153
00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:18,634
So, endocrinology
1154
00:42:18,670 --> 00:42:21,871
would be what, disorders
of the gallbladder?
1155
00:42:21,906 --> 00:42:23,206
Thyroid.
1156
00:42:23,241 --> 00:42:25,207
I am pretty sure
you're wrong about that.
1157
00:42:25,242 --> 00:42:27,154
I think endocrinology
is your subspecialty
1158
00:42:27,178 --> 00:42:29,645
of internal medicine devoted
to the digestive system.
1159
00:42:29,680 --> 00:42:33,599
That would be gastroenterology.
1160
00:42:33,635 --> 00:42:36,769
Are you sure it's not
nephrology, immunology,
1161
00:42:36,805 --> 00:42:38,971
cardiology or dermatology?
1162
00:42:39,006 --> 00:42:40,840
Just stop it.
1163
00:42:40,875 --> 00:42:43,609
I'm trying to watch the movie.
1164
00:42:43,645 --> 00:42:45,695
Okay.
1165
00:42:48,466 --> 00:42:51,551
Here comes the good part.
