1
00:01:28,599 --> 00:01:31,718
I'll tell you a secret.
We could be more profitable.
2
00:01:31,769 --> 00:01:33,637
Small places here and there,
we could make more money.
3
00:01:33,639 --> 00:01:36,139
You know why we don't?
We choose not to.
4
00:01:36,190 --> 00:01:37,807
It's a hell of a business plan,
Reese.
5
00:01:37,809 --> 00:01:39,309
Have a seat if you want.
6
00:01:39,311 --> 00:01:41,611
There's coffee
and juice over there.
7
00:01:41,646 --> 00:01:44,648
- How did you find out?
- We didn't find out. We figured it out.
8
00:01:44,650 --> 00:01:45,899
That's an important
distinction.
9
00:01:45,983 --> 00:01:48,118
We could have found out
by you telling us.
10
00:01:48,152 --> 00:01:49,736
But Sloan Sabbith
figured it out
11
00:01:49,787 --> 00:01:51,738
when instead of going down
off a weak earnings report,
12
00:01:51,789 --> 00:01:56,493
our stock traded up because someone
was buying 5% of our shares.
13
00:01:56,495 --> 00:01:58,295
- 6%.
- 6%.
14
00:01:58,329 --> 00:02:02,249
Which, when added to the 45%
that vests when you turn 25,
15
00:02:02,300 --> 00:02:04,134
comes out to a total of what,
Randy?
16
00:02:04,168 --> 00:02:06,069
King Arthur's knights could
have jousted on this table.
17
00:02:06,103 --> 00:02:09,723
- 51%, that's right.
- Please don't give my brother a math quiz.
18
00:02:09,757 --> 00:02:11,107
I wasn't testing his math.
19
00:02:11,142 --> 00:02:13,176
I was testing
his attention span.
20
00:02:13,178 --> 00:02:15,095
- Reese. You're a douche.
- Yeah? Yes, I am.
21
00:02:15,146 --> 00:02:17,180
But I'm a douche on
the side of the angels.
22
00:02:17,231 --> 00:02:19,900
And the reason there are areas,
small places here and there
23
00:02:19,934 --> 00:02:21,768
where we choose not
to be more profitable,
24
00:02:21,819 --> 00:02:24,654
is because we define success a
little different than you do.
25
00:02:24,689 --> 00:02:28,325
For instance,
we have a news division.
26
00:02:32,363 --> 00:02:34,614
- Are you nervous?
- No.
27
00:02:34,665 --> 00:02:36,032
Really?
28
00:02:36,083 --> 00:02:38,084
I'm okay.
29
00:02:38,119 --> 00:02:39,953
- I'd be nervous.
- I'm fine.
30
00:02:40,004 --> 00:02:41,421
- Here she comes.
- Yeah.
31
00:02:41,455 --> 00:02:42,706
- Don't be nervous.
- I'm not.
32
00:02:42,708 --> 00:02:44,958
I would love it if you guys
33
00:02:45,009 --> 00:02:47,177
would stop committing
federal crimes.
34
00:02:47,211 --> 00:02:48,929
Listen, we're a team here.
We're a family.
35
00:02:48,963 --> 00:02:50,547
But just to be clear,
he's the one who did it.
36
00:02:50,598 --> 00:02:52,716
Before we start, Neal,
37
00:02:52,718 --> 00:02:55,802
it's very important that you
don't reveal your source to me.
38
00:02:55,853 --> 00:02:58,605
- Yeah, no, I won't.
- If you were to reveal your source,
39
00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:00,523
and then even in the course
of an informal conversation
40
00:03:00,558 --> 00:03:03,526
told me you were planning on continuing
to commit this very serious felony,
41
00:03:03,561 --> 00:03:06,529
attorney-client privilege
wouldn't protect either one of us.
42
00:03:06,564 --> 00:03:07,664
He's been prepped.
43
00:03:07,698 --> 00:03:08,949
By whom?
44
00:03:08,983 --> 00:03:11,568
By a member of the New York
bar who graduated seventh
45
00:03:11,619 --> 00:03:14,237
in his class from the fourth
best law school in America.
46
00:03:14,288 --> 00:03:15,989
Okay.
47
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:19,542
Well, as a member of the New York,
California, Illinois, and Florida bars
48
00:03:19,577 --> 00:03:22,362
who graduated second in her class from
the third best law school in the world,
49
00:03:22,396 --> 00:03:25,131
you won't mind if I sweep up
after you a little?
50
00:03:25,166 --> 00:03:29,886
Because this is different than prosecuting
an escort service in Greenpoint.
51
00:03:29,920 --> 00:03:31,588
I put away bad guys, Halliday.
52
00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:33,089
I locked up Mafia dons.
53
00:03:33,091 --> 00:03:36,343
And now when you go to work,
you put on makeup just like me.
54
00:03:36,394 --> 00:03:38,094
Say you want another lawyer.
55
00:03:38,096 --> 00:03:40,897
If it's gonna be like this,
I'd honestly prefer to go to jail.
56
00:03:40,931 --> 00:03:43,566
When they were just your age,
my mother's parents
57
00:03:43,601 --> 00:03:47,187
saw a production of
You Can't Take It With You on Broadway.
58
00:03:47,238 --> 00:03:50,156
They thought it was a shame that
you had to live near New York
59
00:03:50,191 --> 00:03:53,777
or be able to afford to come here on
vacation to see a production that good.
60
00:03:53,828 --> 00:03:55,945
So they went to investors
61
00:03:55,997 --> 00:03:59,949
and they put together $42,350
62
00:04:00,001 --> 00:04:02,452
and mounted a touring company.
63
00:04:02,503 --> 00:04:05,789
National Theatricals
became very successful.
64
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:09,426
And my mother worked in the office
while she was going to City College.
65
00:04:09,460 --> 00:04:12,295
She discovered a small
string of radio stations
66
00:04:12,346 --> 00:04:13,930
that were going
out of business,
67
00:04:13,964 --> 00:04:16,933
and using National
as collateral,
68
00:04:16,967 --> 00:04:19,219
she got a loan and bought
the company that owned them,
69
00:04:19,253 --> 00:04:21,771
which was named after
a mythical city,
70
00:04:21,806 --> 00:04:24,808
Atlantis Media.
71
00:04:24,859 --> 00:04:27,727
She was 22 years old
at the time.
72
00:04:27,778 --> 00:04:30,113
She met our father
73
00:04:30,147 --> 00:04:32,232
and they got married.
74
00:04:32,283 --> 00:04:36,036
And then she had a son who bore a striking
resemblance to the father's brother.
75
00:04:36,070 --> 00:04:38,405
If we're gonna start
at 212 degrees,
76
00:04:38,456 --> 00:04:40,240
we've got no place to go.
77
00:04:40,291 --> 00:04:43,209
In the divorce, she gave him half the
controlling shares of the company,
78
00:04:43,244 --> 00:04:45,128
or 45%.
79
00:04:45,162 --> 00:04:46,663
With another 45% going to you.
80
00:04:46,714 --> 00:04:49,082
- I own no stock in AWM.
- In your mother's will.
81
00:04:49,133 --> 00:04:51,334
I don't know what's in my mother's will.
I don't like to think about it.
82
00:04:51,385 --> 00:04:53,053
You know exactly what's
in your mother's will.
83
00:04:53,087 --> 00:04:55,922
Is this what this is?
Is this a family feud?
84
00:04:55,973 --> 00:04:58,058
'Cause we're not talking
about Elton John's
85
00:04:58,092 --> 00:05:00,343
birthday party now.
Lives are on the line.
86
00:05:00,345 --> 00:05:03,313
Do me a favor and talk to me
with a little more condescension.
87
00:05:03,347 --> 00:05:05,231
Great day in the morning.
88
00:05:05,266 --> 00:05:08,685
- Randy and Blair are in the house.
- Morning.
89
00:05:08,736 --> 00:05:12,105
Did you know I've known these two
since the minute they were born?
90
00:05:12,156 --> 00:05:15,408
Your father's plane
was grounded in the snow
91
00:05:15,443 --> 00:05:17,994
and he called me
from a pay phone and said,
92
00:05:18,028 --> 00:05:20,697
"Charlie,
get yourself to Columbia Presbyterian.
93
00:05:20,748 --> 00:05:24,501
Monica's in labor and I want to
make sure nobody steals my kids."
94
00:05:24,535 --> 00:05:27,670
I wasn't in the delivery room,
'cause, you know, boundaries.
95
00:05:27,705 --> 00:05:31,708
But we're all family
here is my point.
96
00:05:31,759 --> 00:05:33,793
Randy,
you're an absolute knockout.
97
00:05:33,844 --> 00:05:36,880
And, Blair,
you've grown into a fine young man.
98
00:05:36,882 --> 00:05:38,882
I'm Blair.
He's Randy.
99
00:05:38,933 --> 00:05:41,885
All right, well,
that was bound to happen.
100
00:05:41,936 --> 00:05:44,387
Look,
I don't get involved at the corporate level.
101
00:05:44,389 --> 00:05:48,191
I just came in to say hello.
I'm not even sitting down.
102
00:05:48,225 --> 00:05:50,059
But out of curiosity,
103
00:05:50,061 --> 00:05:52,061
if you were to sell
the company,
104
00:05:52,113 --> 00:05:56,282
what would the new owners'
plans be for ACN?
105
00:05:56,317 --> 00:05:58,034
I really don't know, Charlie.
106
00:05:58,068 --> 00:06:00,320
But from what I understand,
you can make more money
107
00:06:00,371 --> 00:06:03,373
selling the cameras than
transmitting images from them.
108
00:06:03,407 --> 00:06:05,875
So,
I imagine that's what they'll do.
109
00:06:06,744 --> 00:06:09,212
Yeah, I'm gonna sit down.
110
00:06:09,246 --> 00:06:11,714
Let's start at the beginning.
Monday night.
111
00:06:11,749 --> 00:06:14,417
- Go ahead.
- You don't have to tell him to go ahead. I just did.
112
00:06:14,468 --> 00:06:16,920
And I was telling him it was
okay to follow your instruction.
113
00:06:16,922 --> 00:06:19,088
Go ahead.
114
00:06:19,090 --> 00:06:20,840
It was the first night
of the Boston story
115
00:06:20,891 --> 00:06:23,259
and I got a message on the site
asking for my encryption key.
116
00:06:23,310 --> 00:06:26,896
I gave it. Then I was asked for a higher
level of encryption and I gave that.
117
00:06:26,931 --> 00:06:29,732
The source instructed me to
buy an air-gapped computer,
118
00:06:29,767 --> 00:06:31,768
a computer that's never been
hooked up to the Internet.
119
00:06:31,770 --> 00:06:33,603
And he told me where he
had hidden the flash drive.
120
00:06:33,605 --> 00:06:36,055
It was hidden Godfather
style in a restaurant bathroom.
121
00:06:36,090 --> 00:06:39,159
- Godfather style?
- The scene where Michael shoots Barzini and the cop.
122
00:06:39,193 --> 00:06:40,326
- McCluskey.
- Right.
123
00:06:40,361 --> 00:06:42,495
- And it was Sollozzo.
- The cop?
124
00:06:42,530 --> 00:06:45,498
The cop was McCluskey.
It was McCluskey and Sollozzo, not Barzini.
125
00:06:45,533 --> 00:06:47,116
- Maybe we can move past this.
- You got the flash drive...
126
00:06:47,118 --> 00:06:48,751
And loaded it onto
the air-gapped computer.
127
00:06:48,786 --> 00:06:50,303
And what was on the drive?
128
00:06:50,337 --> 00:06:53,790
A little more than 27,000
documents belonging to the DOD.
129
00:06:53,792 --> 00:06:56,459
- About half of them classified.
- Tell her about Kundu.
130
00:06:56,461 --> 00:06:59,629
There's a small African country called
the Republic of Equatorial Kundu.
131
00:06:59,631 --> 00:07:02,632
It's a failed state.
The week before last, there were violent riots
132
00:07:02,634 --> 00:07:06,135
that killed 38 people
including three Americans.
133
00:07:06,187 --> 00:07:08,271
We're the ones
who started the riots.
134
00:07:08,305 --> 00:07:09,639
How?
135
00:07:09,641 --> 00:07:11,891
The Pentagon employs a PR firm
in Virginia called BCD.
136
00:07:11,942 --> 00:07:15,111
They do propaganda work
planting positive stories
137
00:07:15,145 --> 00:07:16,613
about the US in local papers.
138
00:07:16,647 --> 00:07:19,115
But this time,
they planted a story in Kundu
139
00:07:19,149 --> 00:07:22,118
about a rebel leader who was about
to attack another rebel group.
140
00:07:22,152 --> 00:07:24,487
The story was false
and now 38 people are dead.
141
00:07:24,489 --> 00:07:27,457
In order to be able to better
convince Charlie to spend the money
142
00:07:27,491 --> 00:07:30,243
on investigators to go
through the 27,000 documents,
143
00:07:30,294 --> 00:07:33,630
I asked the source to get me a couple
of pieces of persuasive evidence.
144
00:07:33,664 --> 00:07:35,832
- And I taught him how to use the NIPRNet...
- Yeah.
145
00:07:35,883 --> 00:07:37,750
...to move it from
the DOD's computer to mine.
146
00:07:37,801 --> 00:07:40,003
- You were aware these were stolen documents?
- Yes.
147
00:07:40,054 --> 00:07:42,222
- And you asked your source to steal some more?
- Yes.
148
00:07:42,256 --> 00:07:45,341
- You even taught him how to do it?
- Yeah.
149
00:07:45,392 --> 00:07:48,394
Well, here's what you've done.
150
00:07:48,429 --> 00:07:51,180
You've committed espionage.
151
00:07:51,232 --> 00:07:54,851
You violated Title 18,
Section 793.
152
00:07:54,853 --> 00:07:57,437
Aside from the Espionage Act,
you can and will be charged
153
00:07:57,488 --> 00:07:59,856
with violating the Computer
Fraud and Abuse Act
154
00:07:59,907 --> 00:08:01,741
as well as federal statutes
155
00:08:01,775 --> 00:08:05,194
that punish the theft
or retention of stolen...
156
00:08:05,196 --> 00:08:07,113
I mean,
I know these guys get legal training.
157
00:08:07,164 --> 00:08:08,531
How does this happen?
158
00:08:08,582 --> 00:08:10,533
Isn't this the very first thing
they're taught not to do?
159
00:08:10,584 --> 00:08:12,535
- Once a year.
- Like, is there a sign hanging somewhere...
160
00:08:12,537 --> 00:08:14,871
- It's not like they take a semester of criminal law.
- ...like a choking hazard sign?
161
00:08:14,873 --> 00:08:17,957
"Don't ask sources
to steal things for you."
162
00:08:18,008 --> 00:08:22,629
Title 18, 641,
Title 18, 793-E.
163
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:24,714
18, 1030-A.
164
00:08:24,716 --> 00:08:26,883
And you violated
the USA Patriot Act.
165
00:08:26,934 --> 00:08:29,102
Seems like the US government
has an awful lot of laws
166
00:08:29,136 --> 00:08:30,853
protecting itself
from its citizens.
167
00:08:30,888 --> 00:08:33,106
That's one way of looking at it.
It's a stupid way.
168
00:08:33,140 --> 00:08:34,974
Is the DOD aware of this yet?
169
00:08:35,025 --> 00:08:38,528
No, but if we were to run the story,
which we obviously won't,
170
00:08:38,562 --> 00:08:41,731
we'd pick up the phone and find someone
at BCD to talk to on a Saturday.
171
00:08:41,733 --> 00:08:44,317
- Once we did that...
- It would take about 10 seconds for BCD
172
00:08:44,368 --> 00:08:47,737
to alert the Defense Department and the
FBI would show up here in an hour.
173
00:08:47,739 --> 00:08:51,240
And they would take you in for questioning and
not let you go until you revealed your source.
174
00:08:51,292 --> 00:08:54,243
- That's not gonna happen.
- Not gonna happen 'cause we're not gonna run the story.
175
00:08:54,295 --> 00:08:56,412
We are gonna run the story
and I will avail myself
176
00:08:56,463 --> 00:08:59,048
of the protection the First Amendment gives
me when it comes to revealing a source.
177
00:08:59,083 --> 00:09:01,584
Neither the First nor any
other amendment protects you
178
00:09:01,635 --> 00:09:03,670
when you conspire
to commit treason.
179
00:09:03,721 --> 00:09:06,089
Don't run the story and you
don't have to call BCD.
180
00:09:06,091 --> 00:09:08,257
Don't call BCD and nobody
knows you have the documents.
181
00:09:08,309 --> 00:09:10,510
Don't ever make contact
with your source again.
182
00:09:10,561 --> 00:09:12,345
A truth that matters
can't stay hidden
183
00:09:12,396 --> 00:09:13,930
and it's no more
complicated than that.
184
00:09:13,932 --> 00:09:15,815
It's a lot more
complicated than that
185
00:09:15,849 --> 00:09:17,600
and I decide
what goes on the air.
186
00:09:17,602 --> 00:09:20,937
So, in point of fact,
we'll be doing exactly what Rebecca just said,
187
00:09:20,939 --> 00:09:23,740
which is to say nothing.
188
00:09:42,209 --> 00:09:43,459
Look at that.
189
00:09:43,494 --> 00:09:45,762
Is that a good enough score
to get me in the FBI?
190
00:09:45,796 --> 00:09:47,847
It's not a good enough
score to get you in the PTA.
191
00:09:47,881 --> 00:09:50,767
I put two shots
right in the torso.
192
00:09:50,801 --> 00:09:54,887
Unfortunately, the other four hit
anyone standing next to the torso.
193
00:09:54,938 --> 00:09:56,773
Hey.
Thanks.
194
00:09:56,807 --> 00:09:58,474
Thank you.
195
00:10:02,896 --> 00:10:04,781
That one's yours?
196
00:10:04,815 --> 00:10:06,816
It belongs to the Bureau,
but, yeah.
197
00:10:06,818 --> 00:10:10,236
Tell me something.
Why don't they allow people to go in there alone?
198
00:10:10,287 --> 00:10:12,572
They don't want to make it
easier to commit suicide.
199
00:10:13,824 --> 00:10:15,625
So these are the good
people with the guns
200
00:10:15,659 --> 00:10:17,710
who are going to stop the
bad people with the guns?
201
00:10:17,745 --> 00:10:19,962
We're the good people with the guns.
202
00:10:19,997 --> 00:10:22,081
How's the wedding coming along?
203
00:10:22,132 --> 00:10:25,301
Be easier if people stopped
detonating bombs in Boston
204
00:10:25,335 --> 00:10:28,755
and factories stopped
blowing up in Texas.
205
00:10:28,806 --> 00:10:30,890
I missed a fitting last week.
206
00:10:30,924 --> 00:10:32,508
Casualty count keeps rising.
207
00:10:32,510 --> 00:10:34,811
I need to ask you about something.
208
00:10:34,845 --> 00:10:37,764
- I figured.
- It'll be hypothetical.
209
00:10:37,815 --> 00:10:40,767
It needs to be.
They give us a polygraph test every five years
210
00:10:40,818 --> 00:10:42,518
and mine's coming up.
211
00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:45,238
In today's climate,
what happens to a reporter
212
00:10:45,272 --> 00:10:47,824
who's made contact with a
government whistle-blower?
213
00:10:47,858 --> 00:10:50,493
- A leaker.
- A whistle-blower.
214
00:10:50,527 --> 00:10:53,446
A leaker of secrets
who has taken it upon himself
215
00:10:53,497 --> 00:10:55,531
to decide what laws to obey.
216
00:10:55,566 --> 00:10:58,367
A reporter might gain
the favor of the government
217
00:10:58,369 --> 00:11:01,871
by reporting such a leak to us
instead of the general public.
218
00:11:01,922 --> 00:11:04,590
That reporter's organization would
never have another source again.
219
00:11:04,625 --> 00:11:06,209
And one might say
they'd abdicated
220
00:11:06,211 --> 00:11:08,044
their responsibility
to a democracy.
221
00:11:08,046 --> 00:11:09,846
Yeah, well,
might be full of shit, too.
222
00:11:11,298 --> 00:11:14,133
- Look, I...
- Nothing.
223
00:11:14,184 --> 00:11:15,852
The answer is nothing happens.
224
00:11:15,886 --> 00:11:19,021
No reporter's ever been prosecuted
under the Espionage Act.
225
00:11:19,056 --> 00:11:22,225
If they don't reveal their source,
they may be charged with contempt.
226
00:11:22,276 --> 00:11:24,560
And if they go to jail,
it's for an average of 10 days.
227
00:11:24,611 --> 00:11:26,813
At the most,
it's been six months.
228
00:11:26,864 --> 00:11:29,031
You sound disappointed, Molly.
229
00:11:29,066 --> 00:11:31,651
Sources come to us with things
they can't come to you with.
230
00:11:31,702 --> 00:11:33,553
Yeah,
we have sources, too, Mac.
231
00:11:33,587 --> 00:11:35,788
We use them to stop violent
crimes before they happen.
232
00:11:35,823 --> 00:11:38,958
You want to protect your sources,
so do we.
233
00:11:38,992 --> 00:11:40,793
'Cause when there's a leak,
our sources get executed.
234
00:11:43,547 --> 00:11:45,548
Oh...
235
00:11:45,582 --> 00:11:47,750
On most every occasion,
Obama refused to side
236
00:11:47,752 --> 00:11:50,086
with the EPA's more
science-based positions.
237
00:11:50,137 --> 00:11:53,473
I don't know, whether...
Whether it's cleaning up the air
238
00:11:53,507 --> 00:11:55,475
or forcing the national
resources industries
239
00:11:55,509 --> 00:11:58,728
to abide by
existing regulations,
240
00:11:58,762 --> 00:12:02,265
ultimately the EPA
is only as good
241
00:12:02,316 --> 00:12:04,267
as the White House
allows us to be.
242
00:12:04,269 --> 00:12:08,571
Okay,
take the Deepwater Horizon oil spill.
243
00:12:08,605 --> 00:12:11,824
That was the largest oil spill
the US has experienced...
244
00:12:11,859 --> 00:12:14,243
Excuse me.
Is this seat taken?
245
00:12:14,278 --> 00:12:15,528
No.
246
00:12:15,579 --> 00:12:19,081
- Shh. Don't be alarmed, okay?
- Okay.
247
00:12:19,116 --> 00:12:22,034
I need a favor and I'll be able to
explain why in just a few minutes,
248
00:12:22,085 --> 00:12:24,170
but for now you have
to trust a stranger.
249
00:12:24,204 --> 00:12:25,454
What's the favor?
250
00:12:25,506 --> 00:12:27,623
Hold my iPod
and put in the earbuds.
251
00:12:27,674 --> 00:12:28,841
In your ears?
252
00:12:28,876 --> 00:12:31,627
In your ears like
you're listening to it.
253
00:12:31,629 --> 00:12:33,963
- You still have an iPod?
- I like the way the wheel clicks.
254
00:12:34,014 --> 00:12:35,665
But that's not
important right now.
255
00:12:35,699 --> 00:12:37,600
- Will you do it?
- Yeah, sure.
256
00:12:37,634 --> 00:12:39,135
Well,
I can give it to you on the record...
257
00:12:39,186 --> 00:12:41,971
- Shh.
- ...or I can give it to you off the record.
258
00:12:42,022 --> 00:12:44,223
On the record
is gonna make you laugh.
259
00:12:44,274 --> 00:12:45,608
On the record?
260
00:12:45,642 --> 00:12:50,313
The president continues
to believe in a strong EPA
261
00:12:50,315 --> 00:12:53,649
led by an advocate
for smart pro-growth
262
00:12:53,700 --> 00:12:55,818
environmental policies
that will protect...
263
00:12:55,820 --> 00:12:59,155
Okay, now you're laughing
just as I said you would be.
264
00:12:59,206 --> 00:13:01,324
Off the record...
265
00:13:01,375 --> 00:13:03,292
Hey, hang on.
266
00:13:10,467 --> 00:13:12,501
Off the record, even he'd admit
267
00:13:12,553 --> 00:13:15,187
he couldn't get a law
through this Congress
268
00:13:15,222 --> 00:13:17,757
reaffirming the US
as the name of the country.
269
00:13:17,808 --> 00:13:21,177
So why bother wasting
what little capital he has
270
00:13:21,228 --> 00:13:23,229
with the Republicans on the Hill
trying to get an up or down vote
271
00:13:23,263 --> 00:13:26,933
on his pick to run
a toothless agency?
272
00:13:29,486 --> 00:13:31,187
I was gonna get the buffet.
273
00:13:31,238 --> 00:13:34,023
I don't know why, if given a choice,
anyone wouldn't get the buffet.
274
00:13:34,074 --> 00:13:36,158
Under what circumstance
would you order off the menu?
275
00:13:36,193 --> 00:13:38,644
If the menu had a five-pound lobster
and the buffet was soy-themed.
276
00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:41,030
- All-you-can-eat assorted soy.
- Here's what I need you to do.
277
00:13:41,032 --> 00:13:42,248
Why does there need
to be an assignment?
278
00:13:42,282 --> 00:13:44,033
Hey,
are we in this buffet thing together?
279
00:13:44,035 --> 00:13:46,452
Yeah,
we tell the waiter we're getting the buffet.
280
00:13:46,536 --> 00:13:48,588
I did a Q and A in Shape
about my healthy diet.
281
00:13:48,622 --> 00:13:50,873
- You lied.
- In a big way and I'm really hungry.
282
00:13:50,924 --> 00:13:52,708
So I need you to get food for
me and I'll get food for you.
283
00:13:52,710 --> 00:13:55,978
- Got it.
- Crab claws as far as the eye can see.
284
00:13:56,013 --> 00:13:57,713
Mushroom
and Swiss cheese omelet.
285
00:13:57,715 --> 00:14:00,766
And I can't emphasize this enough...
Waffles.
286
00:14:00,801 --> 00:14:03,552
- And what am I getting?
- Fruit salad.
287
00:14:03,554 --> 00:14:05,938
- Have you decided yet?
- We're gonna have the buffet.
288
00:14:05,973 --> 00:14:08,641
I'm only having something light,
but I'm gonna keep him company at the buffet.
289
00:14:08,692 --> 00:14:11,143
I know it seems like a waste paying
for the buffet and not eating it,
290
00:14:11,194 --> 00:14:13,362
- but that's what I'm gonna do.
- Okay.
291
00:14:13,397 --> 00:14:14,647
Help yourselves.
292
00:14:14,698 --> 00:14:17,066
I don't think he bought it.
293
00:14:17,117 --> 00:14:20,286
I think it was a more detailed
explanation than he's used to getting.
294
00:14:22,990 --> 00:14:25,408
Hey, I didn't tell you.
You made me $125 yesterday.
295
00:14:25,459 --> 00:14:28,577
- How'd I do that?
- I bought $2,500 of Chipotle.
296
00:14:28,579 --> 00:14:30,746
Please tell me you're talking
about the hot sauce.
297
00:14:30,748 --> 00:14:33,749
- The stock, the company.
- You bought CMG?
298
00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:35,384
- You told me to.
- No, I didn't.
299
00:14:35,419 --> 00:14:37,637
You said Chipotle's
gonna have a good day.
300
00:14:37,671 --> 00:14:40,640
Because I got an advance copy of the
earnings report and anticipated an uptick.
301
00:14:40,674 --> 00:14:42,975
- Well, you were right.
- I know I was right.
302
00:14:43,010 --> 00:14:45,394
Wait, you went on TV and told
people to buy the stock.
303
00:14:45,429 --> 00:14:47,179
How was I at a greater
advantage than your viewers?
304
00:14:47,230 --> 00:14:50,099
When did you buy?
Before or after we went on the air?
305
00:14:51,318 --> 00:14:52,518
- Before.
- Before.
306
00:14:52,569 --> 00:14:55,438
- Did you buy at 352.88?
- I bought at 344.91.
307
00:14:55,489 --> 00:14:56,939
You bought it
at its opening price,
308
00:14:56,990 --> 00:14:59,942
which is almost $8 a share lower
than it was when I went on the air.
309
00:14:59,993 --> 00:15:01,861
Congratulations,
we're white-collar criminals.
310
00:15:01,912 --> 00:15:03,829
Okay, first let me say
if you're gonna be a criminal,
311
00:15:03,864 --> 00:15:05,948
- that's probably the best kind to be.
- I don't want to be any kind.
312
00:15:05,999 --> 00:15:08,451
We have to go to the office after this for Neal.
Should we talk to Rebecca?
313
00:15:08,502 --> 00:15:11,203
I think we should.
314
00:15:12,422 --> 00:15:15,091
No.
We're still gonna eat first.
315
00:15:15,125 --> 00:15:16,592
Crab claws, right there.
316
00:15:16,626 --> 00:15:17,877
- And, Don.
- Yeah?
317
00:15:17,911 --> 00:15:19,462
You walked right past
the waffles.
318
00:15:19,464 --> 00:15:21,180
I'm sorry.
319
00:15:23,116 --> 00:15:25,631
_
320
00:15:27,858 --> 00:15:31,868
_
321
00:15:41,535 --> 00:15:44,570
No way in the wide fucking
world we're doing this story.
322
00:15:46,873 --> 00:15:49,792
Hey.
What are you doing here?
323
00:15:49,826 --> 00:15:51,961
What are you doing here?
324
00:15:51,995 --> 00:15:55,464
Came in to catch up on the week's worth
of news that happened during Boston.
325
00:15:55,499 --> 00:15:57,666
Jenna Bush had a baby.
326
00:15:57,668 --> 00:16:00,970
I wonder how many great-grandfather
presidents we've had.
327
00:16:01,004 --> 00:16:04,924
I fucked up so bad and it's all
gonna come down in the next hour.
328
00:16:04,975 --> 00:16:07,009
What are you talking about?
329
00:16:07,894 --> 00:16:10,096
Hallie, what are...
330
00:16:17,821 --> 00:16:21,357
Last night...
This morning around 2:00 AM,
331
00:16:21,359 --> 00:16:22,858
we were wrapping up
the Boston coverage
332
00:16:22,909 --> 00:16:24,693
and I was heading home
and I saw that ACN
333
00:16:24,745 --> 00:16:27,196
hadn't posted a tweet
in six and a half hours.
334
00:16:27,198 --> 00:16:29,698
Neal usually does that and he
likes to post every 30 minutes,
335
00:16:29,750 --> 00:16:33,252
but I knew where his head was,
so I posted for him when I got home.
336
00:16:33,286 --> 00:16:36,005
That was 2:37 this morning.
337
00:16:36,039 --> 00:16:37,957
I went to sleep
and then woke up
338
00:16:38,008 --> 00:16:40,092
and deleted it
a half hour later.
339
00:16:40,127 --> 00:16:41,544
- 3:04.
- What was the tweet?
340
00:16:41,595 --> 00:16:43,012
- Nobody's picked it up yet.
- What was it?
341
00:16:43,046 --> 00:16:45,297
- I knew it was wrong the second I...
- Hal.
342
00:16:47,050 --> 00:16:49,769
I hit send and thought,
"Well, that's done" and turned the lights off.
343
00:16:49,803 --> 00:16:52,638
Republicans rejoice"...
344
00:16:56,143 --> 00:17:00,112
"Republicans rejoice that there's
finally a national tragedy
345
00:17:00,147 --> 00:17:02,565
that doesn't involve guns."
346
00:17:12,209 --> 00:17:14,293
- It was up for how long?
- 27 minutes.
347
00:17:14,327 --> 00:17:16,412
In the middle of the night
on a night when everyone
348
00:17:16,463 --> 00:17:18,297
was paying attention
to something else.
349
00:17:18,331 --> 00:17:19,882
Is there any chance
it won't be found?
350
00:17:19,916 --> 00:17:22,384
No.
351
00:17:22,419 --> 00:17:24,420
I came in to get fired.
352
00:17:24,422 --> 00:17:27,256
Reese,
where did our stock close yesterday?
353
00:17:27,307 --> 00:17:28,891
66.
354
00:17:28,925 --> 00:17:31,894
And what's Savannah Capital
offering you per share?
355
00:17:31,928 --> 00:17:33,095
81.
356
00:17:33,146 --> 00:17:37,316
45% of the controlling shares
357
00:17:37,350 --> 00:17:40,436
times 66 equals...
358
00:17:40,438 --> 00:17:41,570
Carry the three.
359
00:17:41,605 --> 00:17:44,406
Times 81.
360
00:17:44,441 --> 00:17:46,959
All right.
Right now your stock
361
00:17:46,993 --> 00:17:50,779
is worth $2.3 billion.
362
00:17:50,781 --> 00:17:52,781
Savannah Capital says
it should be worth
363
00:17:52,833 --> 00:17:55,918
$3.1 billion.
364
00:17:55,952 --> 00:17:57,753
Aren't $2.3 billion
365
00:17:57,787 --> 00:18:01,040
and $3.1 billion
the exact same thing?
366
00:18:01,091 --> 00:18:03,843
- What's the difference?
- 800 million.
367
00:18:03,877 --> 00:18:06,629
Yes, good, Randy.
But I think what Charlie is saying is
368
00:18:06,631 --> 00:18:10,883
what can you buy with 3.1 billion
that you can't buy with 2.3 billion?
369
00:18:10,934 --> 00:18:13,853
You seem to think our plan is
to hit the ATM and go shopping.
370
00:18:13,887 --> 00:18:15,804
- What is your plan?
- My immediate plan
371
00:18:15,856 --> 00:18:18,641
is to ask you why the fuck you
think we need to tell you our plan.
372
00:18:18,643 --> 00:18:21,310
We're not seeking
permission for something.
373
00:18:21,361 --> 00:18:23,028
In 10 days, we turn 25,
374
00:18:23,063 --> 00:18:26,198
inherit 45% of the
controlling shares of AWM,
375
00:18:26,233 --> 00:18:27,983
and sell them
to Savannah Capital,
376
00:18:28,034 --> 00:18:30,569
who was able to buy 6%
of the controlling shares
377
00:18:30,620 --> 00:18:33,873
without any of the geniuses
at this company noticing.
378
00:18:33,907 --> 00:18:36,876
And do you know what I find
so perfectly poetic, Reese?
379
00:18:36,910 --> 00:18:39,044
Is that you would have
been looking out for it
380
00:18:39,079 --> 00:18:41,497
if you remembered
when our birthday was.
381
00:18:41,499 --> 00:18:43,082
Or that we were born.
382
00:18:43,133 --> 00:18:45,801
People like you are the reason
people hate people like me.
383
00:18:45,835 --> 00:18:47,887
Guess that's why you didn't
sit with us at the funeral.
384
00:18:47,921 --> 00:18:50,005
Jesus Christ,
my father had just died.
385
00:18:50,056 --> 00:18:52,725
I wasn't paying a lot of attention
to where my fucking seats were.
386
00:18:52,759 --> 00:18:54,009
- Reese.
- Can we not?
387
00:18:54,011 --> 00:18:55,311
I got to tell you something.
388
00:18:55,345 --> 00:18:57,897
'Cause we're talking
about 141,000 people.
389
00:18:57,931 --> 00:18:59,431
Dad thought you
were an asshole.
390
00:18:59,482 --> 00:19:02,818
All right. All right.
391
00:19:02,852 --> 00:19:04,186
All right.
392
00:19:04,188 --> 00:19:07,189
I want you to sit out a couple of rounds,
all right?
393
00:19:07,191 --> 00:19:10,659
- All right?
- Yeah.
394
00:19:22,589 --> 00:19:24,540
It's me now.
395
00:19:24,542 --> 00:19:27,176
As I understand it,
the criteria for running a story
396
00:19:27,210 --> 00:19:28,961
is one,
are we confident it's accurate,
397
00:19:29,012 --> 00:19:30,629
and two,
is it in the public interest.
398
00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:32,181
And this passes those tests.
399
00:19:32,215 --> 00:19:33,716
You were confident
Genoa was accurate.
400
00:19:33,767 --> 00:19:35,784
I have my own personal
third criteria,
401
00:19:35,819 --> 00:19:37,720
which is will it land
any of my guys in jail?
402
00:19:37,771 --> 00:19:39,555
- That's not...
- This passes that test, too.
403
00:19:39,606 --> 00:19:42,441
By the way,
in order to ascertain its accuracy,
404
00:19:42,475 --> 00:19:44,393
we'd have to pick up
the phone and call BCD,
405
00:19:44,444 --> 00:19:46,812
which is the trip wire
that sends in the FBI.
406
00:19:46,863 --> 00:19:50,482
Now hand over the flash drive so I
can crush it with a meat tenderizer.
407
00:19:50,533 --> 00:19:52,451
What's he crushing
with a meat tenderizer?
408
00:19:52,485 --> 00:19:54,236
Truth. Hope.
Journalistic integrity.
409
00:19:54,238 --> 00:19:57,072
Hey, I've got more journalistic
integrity in my whole body
410
00:19:57,123 --> 00:19:59,124
- than you've got in your...
- You've got that turned around.
411
00:19:59,159 --> 00:20:01,710
You've got more journalistic
integrity in your whole body...
412
00:20:01,745 --> 00:20:03,579
- That's still wrong.
- What the fuck am I trying to say?
413
00:20:03,630 --> 00:20:05,714
- That you're a pussy.
- Watch your mouth, Mandela.
414
00:20:05,749 --> 00:20:07,833
I'd be a pussy if I was
afraid of going to jail.
415
00:20:07,884 --> 00:20:09,585
In fact,
that wouldn't even make me a pussy.
416
00:20:09,587 --> 00:20:11,420
Other people have gone to jail
for refusing to give up a source.
417
00:20:11,422 --> 00:20:12,921
I'd consider it
a badge of honor.
418
00:20:12,973 --> 00:20:15,307
Be sure to show your badge to
your roommates when you get there.
419
00:20:15,342 --> 00:20:18,310
Neal, it is not refusing to give up
a source that we're talking about.
420
00:20:18,345 --> 00:20:20,896
That's a contempt charge.
It is espionage.
421
00:20:20,930 --> 00:20:23,649
- No, it's not.
- Along with a Christmas list of other felonies...
422
00:20:23,683 --> 00:20:26,318
- Why?
- I've just come from talking to a friend.
423
00:20:26,353 --> 00:20:29,121
- She's been with the FBI 15 years.
- Unimpeachable source.
424
00:20:29,155 --> 00:20:31,857
This is her area and she says they'd
never charge him with espionage.
425
00:20:31,908 --> 00:20:34,243
This woman does not know
what she's talking about.
426
00:20:34,277 --> 00:20:36,445
Yeah, she does.
No journalist has ever
427
00:20:36,496 --> 00:20:38,614
been charged with espionage.
She says it'll be contempt.
428
00:20:38,665 --> 00:20:41,033
They would charge him with
kidnapping the Lindbergh baby
429
00:20:41,084 --> 00:20:42,668
if they think
it'll get them to the leak.
430
00:20:42,702 --> 00:20:44,620
- 30 days.
- She says more like 10.
431
00:20:44,671 --> 00:20:47,756
10 days. That's one day for
every three and a half people
432
00:20:47,791 --> 00:20:50,759
we killed by knowingly planting a
false story in a foreign newspaper.
433
00:20:50,794 --> 00:20:51,844
You did the division that fast?
434
00:20:51,878 --> 00:20:53,679
Yeah, cliche buster.
I'm good at math.
435
00:20:53,713 --> 00:20:55,931
Please tell me you're not
softening your position on this.
436
00:20:55,965 --> 00:20:58,467
- My position hasn't softened at all.
- Smartest person in the room.
437
00:20:58,469 --> 00:21:01,637
- There's no question we have to do the story.
- She is an idiot savant.
438
00:21:01,688 --> 00:21:03,722
- When did you change your mind?
- I didn't change my mind.
439
00:21:03,773 --> 00:21:06,141
I've known we had to do the story
the second he showed it to us.
440
00:21:06,192 --> 00:21:08,193
Do you remember last night?
It was last night.
441
00:21:08,228 --> 00:21:10,112
- I do remember last night.
- You went on and on
442
00:21:10,146 --> 00:21:13,148
- about how we have to protect Neal because we're family.
- That was you.
443
00:21:13,150 --> 00:21:16,151
You didn't push back.
I interpreted that as agreeing with me.
444
00:21:16,202 --> 00:21:19,538
You should have interpreted that as we just
finished five days of covering Boston,
445
00:21:19,572 --> 00:21:22,791
it was late, I was tired,
and I was sleeping.
446
00:21:22,826 --> 00:21:25,294
How often are you sleeping when
I'm talking to you at night?
447
00:21:25,328 --> 00:21:26,912
I'd really have no way
of knowing that.
448
00:21:26,963 --> 00:21:28,497
The two lawyers
in the room say no.
449
00:21:28,548 --> 00:21:30,165
The two journalists
in the room say yes.
450
00:21:30,216 --> 00:21:32,801
- There are three journalists.
- Did I count that wrong?
451
00:21:32,836 --> 00:21:35,587
If you think being an ass is gonna
make me less inclined to protect you,
452
00:21:35,638 --> 00:21:38,924
think again, mofo.
I can out-ass anyone in the Tri-State Area.
453
00:21:38,975 --> 00:21:40,342
He's telling the truth, Neal.
454
00:21:40,344 --> 00:21:42,511
It feels like you're on my side,
but just barely.
455
00:21:42,513 --> 00:21:44,980
- Jenna!
- You make that poor girl work on a Saturday?
456
00:21:45,014 --> 00:21:46,849
She's a recent journalism
school graduate.
457
00:21:46,900 --> 00:21:48,484
I'm just completing
her education.
458
00:21:48,518 --> 00:21:50,235
What she's learning from me
can't be found in books.
459
00:21:50,270 --> 00:21:51,854
- Yes?
- I'd like a Dr Pepper, please.
460
00:21:51,905 --> 00:21:53,072
- Sure.
- Billy.
461
00:21:53,106 --> 00:21:54,490
- What?
- Listen to me.
462
00:21:54,524 --> 00:21:55,858
- I am.
- We're doing this because we have to.
463
00:21:55,909 --> 00:21:57,993
All right, me and you.
You want to go?
464
00:21:58,027 --> 00:22:00,729
- You already know you're gonna lose.
- Take the first swing.
465
00:22:00,764 --> 00:22:03,699
The possibility that reporters are
gonna make bad behavior public
466
00:22:03,750 --> 00:22:06,335
is what stops people
from behaving badly.
467
00:22:06,369 --> 00:22:09,755
The possibility of jail is supposed to
be what makes people stop behaving badly.
468
00:22:09,789 --> 00:22:12,875
Well, it hasn't 'cause they're still doing
it and they're gonna keep doing it.
469
00:22:12,926 --> 00:22:15,544
A PR company killed 38 people.
470
00:22:15,595 --> 00:22:19,715
We do nothing,
and the 39th is on us.
471
00:22:19,766 --> 00:22:21,467
Game over.
Let's make the phone call.
472
00:22:21,518 --> 00:22:23,635
Not so fast.
473
00:22:25,054 --> 00:22:27,856
And it'll just mean everybody
gets what they want,
474
00:22:27,891 --> 00:22:29,775
which is a rudderless EPA.
475
00:22:29,809 --> 00:22:33,228
I can't do what Congress
will never do,
476
00:22:33,230 --> 00:22:35,397
which is regulate
climate pollution.
477
00:22:35,448 --> 00:22:39,401
It's why so many Democrats
think he's jaw-droppingly weak.
478
00:22:39,403 --> 00:22:42,788
Yeah. All right.
Yeah.
479
00:22:51,714 --> 00:22:54,917
- Excuse me, Mr. Westbrook?
- Yeah?
480
00:22:54,919 --> 00:22:56,852
Do we know each other?
481
00:22:56,886 --> 00:22:58,137
You're Richard Westbrook,
482
00:22:58,171 --> 00:23:00,839
Deputy Assistant
Administrator of the EPA?
483
00:23:00,890 --> 00:23:03,342
- I am.
- I heard your end of the call.
484
00:23:03,393 --> 00:23:05,093
- You did?
- Yes.
485
00:23:05,095 --> 00:23:08,764
I have more bad news.
I'm a producer with ACN. Maggie Jordan.
486
00:23:08,766 --> 00:23:11,266
How much of the call
did you hear?
487
00:23:11,317 --> 00:23:14,102
I heard you say that
the president's pick
488
00:23:14,104 --> 00:23:15,904
to run the EPA
will never get a vote,
489
00:23:15,939 --> 00:23:17,823
that the EPA
is a toothless agency...
490
00:23:17,857 --> 00:23:20,275
- Jesus.
- ...and that the president's jaw-droppingly weak.
491
00:23:20,326 --> 00:23:23,278
No, I said Democrats
492
00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:25,781
think the president's
jaw-droppingly weak.
493
00:23:25,832 --> 00:23:29,084
Wait.
That's not better.
494
00:23:29,118 --> 00:23:30,619
I was wondering if you'd
like to comment further.
495
00:23:30,621 --> 00:23:33,589
This car is half empty.
496
00:23:33,623 --> 00:23:35,257
I looked around.
497
00:23:35,291 --> 00:23:38,627
I didn't see anyone near me except
that guy with the headphones.
498
00:23:38,678 --> 00:23:41,346
- I was sitting right here.
- Why didn't I see you?
499
00:23:41,381 --> 00:23:44,049
I may have slid down
in my seat.
500
00:23:44,100 --> 00:23:47,186
- What did you say your name was?
- Maggie Jordan.
501
00:23:47,220 --> 00:23:48,637
Well, that sucks,
Maggie Jordan.
502
00:23:48,688 --> 00:23:49,972
You're on a train, Richard.
503
00:23:50,023 --> 00:23:52,224
You don't have a reasonable
expectation of privacy.
504
00:23:52,275 --> 00:23:54,526
What's more,
you were talking to another reporter.
505
00:23:54,561 --> 00:23:57,145
I was talking to a reporter
I know and trust.
506
00:23:57,197 --> 00:24:00,449
- And I was off the record.
- You were off the record to him, not to me.
507
00:24:00,483 --> 00:24:03,485
- You were hiding like...
- Why not make the call from between the cars?
508
00:24:03,536 --> 00:24:06,154
- It's too loud!
- Why not wait till we get back to New York?
509
00:24:06,156 --> 00:24:08,040
Because this guy's
on deadline now
510
00:24:08,074 --> 00:24:10,325
and I wanted to give him
background on a story
511
00:24:10,376 --> 00:24:12,411
that will hopefully
put pressure on...
512
00:24:12,462 --> 00:24:16,048
Look, I work at the EPA, okay?
513
00:24:16,082 --> 00:24:18,667
We're staffed by seven people
and a high school intern.
514
00:24:18,718 --> 00:24:21,086
We don't care
who's in the White House.
515
00:24:21,137 --> 00:24:23,805
We are pro drinkable water
and breathable air.
516
00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:25,807
We are anti the world
coming to an end.
517
00:24:25,842 --> 00:24:28,727
But you're also public officials
and what you have to say
518
00:24:28,761 --> 00:24:31,847
about how a president's overseeing
your agency is relevant.
519
00:24:31,849 --> 00:24:34,683
- My job...
- Your job? Your job.
520
00:24:34,734 --> 00:24:37,469
If I hear one more
gossip columnist
521
00:24:37,503 --> 00:24:39,238
use democracy as a fig leaf,
522
00:24:39,272 --> 00:24:42,107
I'm gonna eat an IBM Selectric.
523
00:24:43,743 --> 00:24:46,662
- It's an old-fashioned...
- I know what an IBM Selectric is.
524
00:24:46,696 --> 00:24:49,031
And I should tell you you've been
on the record this whole time.
525
00:24:49,033 --> 00:24:50,532
- How?
- You didn't say...
526
00:24:50,583 --> 00:24:52,200
I didn't say I was
off the record.
527
00:24:52,202 --> 00:24:55,120
I didn't call time-out.
I took my foot off the base.
528
00:24:55,171 --> 00:24:58,006
Look, Richard,
there's news happening right in front of me.
529
00:24:58,041 --> 00:24:59,841
- It's my job...
- Don't.
530
00:24:59,876 --> 00:25:03,211
It's my responsibility,
okay, to report it.
531
00:25:03,263 --> 00:25:07,382
Yeah, but you're not interested
in the news part of the news.
532
00:25:07,384 --> 00:25:10,802
I'd be happy to give you an interview
about the news part of the news.
533
00:25:10,853 --> 00:25:13,288
You like the unguarded moments,
534
00:25:13,323 --> 00:25:17,392
private behavior that can never
stand up to public scrutiny.
535
00:25:17,394 --> 00:25:19,728
But you didn't tell the truth
until you were off the record
536
00:25:19,779 --> 00:25:21,613
with the guy on the
other end of the phone.
537
00:25:21,648 --> 00:25:24,199
The unguarded moments
are where the truth is.
538
00:25:24,233 --> 00:25:26,652
I don't care.
I get to be guarded if I want.
539
00:25:26,703 --> 00:25:28,453
And you were slumped
down in a chair.
540
00:25:28,488 --> 00:25:29,988
How honest was that?
541
00:25:35,461 --> 00:25:37,496
Yeah.
542
00:25:37,547 --> 00:25:39,665
You're right.
543
00:25:42,969 --> 00:25:45,754
- What?
- You're right.
544
00:25:45,805 --> 00:25:49,675
- What do you mean?
- That part was wrong.
545
00:25:49,726 --> 00:25:51,343
Is this a trick?
546
00:25:51,394 --> 00:25:52,761
No.
547
00:25:52,812 --> 00:25:55,480
I'm deleting my notes.
I apologize, Richard.
548
00:25:55,515 --> 00:25:58,100
And good luck.
Here's my card
549
00:25:58,151 --> 00:26:00,185
if you ever want
to talk on the record,
550
00:26:00,236 --> 00:26:03,188
which I strongly
encourage you to do.
551
00:26:03,239 --> 00:26:05,357
Enjoy the rest of your trip.
552
00:26:10,663 --> 00:26:13,448
I don't understand
what's happening now.
553
00:26:13,450 --> 00:26:16,535
Crab claw.
Keep it low.
554
00:26:18,671 --> 00:26:20,839
It says here in the ACN
employee's guide,
555
00:26:20,873 --> 00:26:24,426
which has some interesting information
I definitely should have read
556
00:26:24,460 --> 00:26:26,962
before drinking beer with Jim, Neal,
and some college kids in my office,
557
00:26:27,013 --> 00:26:29,598
that we'd only be in trouble if I
was a producer of financial news.
558
00:26:29,632 --> 00:26:32,384
I'm not. I produce the 10:00 hour,
which you occasionally host.
559
00:26:32,435 --> 00:26:35,637
- Keep reading.
- Employees are barred from, blah, blah, blah, blah.
560
00:26:35,688 --> 00:26:38,190
In accordance with the SEC,
blah, blah.
561
00:26:38,224 --> 00:26:40,275
Married, engaged to be married,
562
00:26:40,309 --> 00:26:42,644
cohabitating or in what
could reasonably be considered
563
00:26:42,646 --> 00:26:44,980
a relationship
where the two parties...
564
00:26:45,031 --> 00:26:47,115
The SEC will notice
a pattern in your trading.
565
00:26:47,150 --> 00:26:49,317
That you appear to be
front-running news for ACN.
566
00:26:49,369 --> 00:26:50,869
And they will
connect you to me.
567
00:26:50,903 --> 00:26:53,572
- And even if they don't...
- We're a couple?
568
00:26:54,657 --> 00:26:55,991
Hmm?
569
00:26:55,993 --> 00:26:57,376
You consider us a couple?
570
00:26:57,410 --> 00:26:59,544
I don't understand
that question.
571
00:26:59,579 --> 00:27:02,881
Yeah, you do, 'cause this is exactly
how I act in the same situation.
572
00:27:02,915 --> 00:27:05,000
Suddenly I pretend I'm stupid
and hearing impaired.
573
00:27:05,002 --> 00:27:07,419
- Do you consider us a couple?
- Do you consider us a couple?
574
00:27:07,470 --> 00:27:10,422
- I do that, too, Socrates.
- We are...
575
00:27:10,473 --> 00:27:12,391
- Yep.
- Okay, let me say...
576
00:27:12,425 --> 00:27:14,226
- Go ahead.
- Here's what we are.
577
00:27:14,260 --> 00:27:16,428
- Bring it.
- I love spending time with you.
578
00:27:16,479 --> 00:27:18,063
- Oh! Oh, man.
- Wait.
579
00:27:18,097 --> 00:27:19,731
I can't believe
I'm getting Don Keefer'd.
580
00:27:19,766 --> 00:27:22,818
You're not.
I would never Don Keefer you.
581
00:27:22,852 --> 00:27:25,487
We're a couple. Totally.
Of course we're a couple.
582
00:27:25,521 --> 00:27:28,106
Let me remind you, I was the one who had
a problem with you trading Chipotle.
583
00:27:28,157 --> 00:27:29,975
Why?
Because we're a couple.
584
00:27:30,009 --> 00:27:32,360
You're the one buying up
Chipotle hither and yon as if,
585
00:27:32,362 --> 00:27:35,197
"Duh, look,
I don't produce a financial show."
586
00:27:35,199 --> 00:27:36,698
See what I mean?
587
00:27:36,749 --> 00:27:38,500
Okay.
588
00:27:40,086 --> 00:27:42,120
Got to slide me a waffle, man.
589
00:27:45,258 --> 00:27:48,543
I'll address that aggressive
behavior in just a moment.
590
00:27:48,545 --> 00:27:50,095
He looked up, you see?
591
00:27:50,129 --> 00:27:52,497
He saw that the pitcher
wasn't covering first base,
592
00:27:52,532 --> 00:27:55,434
which is what the pitcher is supposed
to do on a ground ball to first.
593
00:27:55,468 --> 00:27:56,968
They've known that
since Little League.
594
00:27:57,019 --> 00:27:58,887
He looked up,
and you can see it on the replay.
595
00:27:58,889 --> 00:28:01,189
He looks up because he knew the
pitcher wasn't covering the bag
596
00:28:01,224 --> 00:28:03,775
and he needed to gauge his
position relative to the base.
597
00:28:03,810 --> 00:28:06,978
What happens when you take
your eye off the ball?
598
00:28:07,029 --> 00:28:10,482
God, Jim, what in the name of
sweet Christ are you talking about?
599
00:28:10,533 --> 00:28:12,784
- Bill Buckner.
- Is this the best time, babe?
600
00:28:12,819 --> 00:28:15,821
- I thought it might be a welcome distraction.
- It's an unwelcome annoyance.
601
00:28:15,872 --> 00:28:17,823
I knew going in
that was a possibility.
602
00:28:17,874 --> 00:28:20,208
Buckner needs to be exonerated.
603
00:28:20,243 --> 00:28:23,495
You make one mistake and ev...
604
00:28:25,027 --> 00:28:28,170
_
605
00:28:38,327 --> 00:28:39,895
CNN represents
606
00:28:39,929 --> 00:28:42,481
a small fraction
of Time Warner's revenue.
607
00:28:42,515 --> 00:28:46,234
NBC Nightly News
a small fraction of Comcast.
608
00:28:46,269 --> 00:28:49,237
And ACN an even smaller
fraction of Atlantis.
609
00:28:49,272 --> 00:28:53,158
But they are the face and voice
of their parent corporations.
610
00:28:53,192 --> 00:28:54,910
- So what?
- So what?
611
00:28:54,944 --> 00:28:56,695
Yes.
612
00:28:58,614 --> 00:28:59,948
That's a fair question.
613
00:28:59,950 --> 00:29:01,449
I think you're making
good headway.
614
00:29:01,501 --> 00:29:03,919
- As an experienced negotiator...
- Reese Lansing.
615
00:29:03,953 --> 00:29:05,871
As the president
of a news network,
616
00:29:05,922 --> 00:29:09,007
all I do every day
is fight with him.
617
00:29:09,041 --> 00:29:11,710
All I do every day
is fight with Leona.
618
00:29:11,761 --> 00:29:13,428
And the thing of it is this...
619
00:29:13,462 --> 00:29:16,348
I win almost every one
of those battles.
620
00:29:16,382 --> 00:29:20,101
What network president can say
that about their corporate parent?
621
00:29:20,136 --> 00:29:22,187
I win almost every one
of those battles
622
00:29:22,221 --> 00:29:25,690
and the reason is most
of the time they let me.
623
00:29:25,725 --> 00:29:28,810
Your father absolutely did
not think you were an asshole.
624
00:29:28,812 --> 00:29:32,197
They want ACN
to do the news well.
625
00:29:32,231 --> 00:29:34,316
And we're not always
successful at it,
626
00:29:34,367 --> 00:29:36,735
but that's what we try to do,
and they let me win
627
00:29:36,786 --> 00:29:40,021
because they just want us to play our role.
628
00:29:40,056 --> 00:29:41,740
As a public service.
629
00:29:41,791 --> 00:29:44,075
As a patriotic sacrifice.
630
00:29:44,126 --> 00:29:45,660
As a moral imperative,
631
00:29:45,662 --> 00:29:48,496
they do not require
ACN to make money.
632
00:29:48,548 --> 00:29:51,416
Why?
Because they can afford it.
633
00:29:51,467 --> 00:29:53,335
- Charlie.
- Isn't that something you want to be a part of
634
00:29:53,386 --> 00:29:55,387
and not something
you want to end?
635
00:29:55,421 --> 00:29:58,139
Don't you want to be
handed the baton?
636
00:29:58,174 --> 00:30:01,259
We want to strike out
on our own.
637
00:30:01,310 --> 00:30:04,813
Be entrepreneurs.
Maybe get into Bitcoin.
638
00:30:04,847 --> 00:30:07,148
Shut the fuck up, Randy.
639
00:30:08,017 --> 00:30:10,485
Go deal with it.
640
00:30:10,519 --> 00:30:13,321
This is so fucked up,
I don't even know where to begin.
641
00:30:13,356 --> 00:30:15,106
- Yeah.
- Jesus Christ!
642
00:30:15,157 --> 00:30:16,358
She understands it's fucked up.
643
00:30:16,409 --> 00:30:18,526
The RNC wants a public apology
644
00:30:18,578 --> 00:30:21,196
or we can't book
Republicans on any show.
645
00:30:21,247 --> 00:30:23,832
- An entire political party.
- They deserve a public apology.
646
00:30:23,866 --> 00:30:27,118
It's almost six months to the day
since our last public apology.
647
00:30:27,169 --> 00:30:28,970
There is no question
that your anger is founded.
648
00:30:29,038 --> 00:30:30,705
I wasn't questioning it, Jim.
649
00:30:30,756 --> 00:30:32,874
I'm not on the fence about
whether I should be angry.
650
00:30:32,925 --> 00:30:35,043
I'd like to say the
following in Hallie's defense.
651
00:30:35,094 --> 00:30:37,178
Like everybody,
she was incredibly tired last night...
652
00:30:37,213 --> 00:30:40,215
- That's just lame.
- This wasn't something she would normally do.
653
00:30:40,217 --> 00:30:42,267
She deleted it.
She knew it was wrong.
654
00:30:42,301 --> 00:30:44,552
Are you two together?
655
00:30:44,604 --> 00:30:46,104
We met on the Romney campaign.
656
00:30:46,138 --> 00:30:47,555
But that is not
why she got the job.
657
00:30:47,607 --> 00:30:49,391
She has done great work
for ACN Digital.
658
00:30:49,393 --> 00:30:50,992
Read her last 10 columns,
look at her...
659
00:30:51,027 --> 00:30:53,778
I don't care if she wrote the
collective works of Tolstoy.
660
00:30:53,813 --> 00:30:56,064
She also wrote this.
661
00:30:59,035 --> 00:31:00,952
I'm not gonna make
you fire her.
662
00:31:00,987 --> 00:31:02,404
- Thank you.
- No, I'm sorry.
663
00:31:02,406 --> 00:31:04,823
I meant I'm going to do it.
664
00:31:06,909 --> 00:31:08,293
If your mind is made up...
665
00:31:08,327 --> 00:31:10,795
I don't get to make up
my own mind now.
666
00:31:10,830 --> 00:31:12,747
The RNC is doing it for me.
667
00:31:12,798 --> 00:31:15,467
If your mind is made up,
then it's my job to fire her.
668
00:31:15,501 --> 00:31:17,002
What?
669
00:31:17,053 --> 00:31:19,421
Excuse me. Sorry.
I think this is about me.
670
00:31:19,423 --> 00:31:21,589
Come in.
671
00:31:21,591 --> 00:31:23,892
We haven't really met.
I'm Charlie Skinner.
672
00:31:23,926 --> 00:31:26,845
- I know.
- Republicans are rejoicing?
673
00:31:26,896 --> 00:31:30,315
You know 144 people got blown up,
right?
674
00:31:30,349 --> 00:31:32,767
And that three
of those people are dead.
675
00:31:32,818 --> 00:31:35,020
And that one of them
is eight years fucking old.
676
00:31:35,071 --> 00:31:36,237
Yes, sir.
677
00:31:36,272 --> 00:31:38,323
I'm so curious, I have to ask.
678
00:31:38,357 --> 00:31:40,275
At the time when you typed it,
679
00:31:40,277 --> 00:31:44,195
in that moment,
what were you thinking the value of it was?
680
00:31:44,246 --> 00:31:46,281
Retweets.
681
00:31:50,169 --> 00:31:52,754
I appreciate your honesty.
682
00:31:54,123 --> 00:31:56,257
You should know Jim did
everything he could for you.
683
00:31:56,292 --> 00:31:59,627
We'll say it was a low-level
staffer and they were fired,
684
00:31:59,679 --> 00:32:01,680
but we won't reveal your name.
685
00:32:01,714 --> 00:32:04,766
- Thank you.
- That's all.
686
00:32:12,475 --> 00:32:14,776
- Can I...?
- Yeah.
687
00:32:25,321 --> 00:32:26,788
You're a reporter?
688
00:32:26,822 --> 00:32:28,656
I'm sorry?
689
00:32:28,708 --> 00:32:30,375
You're a reporter?
690
00:32:30,409 --> 00:32:32,577
A news producer.
ACN.
691
00:32:32,628 --> 00:32:35,080
You were in Boston
for the bombing?
692
00:32:35,131 --> 00:32:36,748
I was there for the race.
693
00:32:36,799 --> 00:32:38,666
You're okay?
694
00:32:38,718 --> 00:32:40,919
I finished about a half hour
before the explosion.
695
00:32:40,970 --> 00:32:42,504
Good thing you're fast.
696
00:32:42,555 --> 00:32:46,007
Um, before,
with that guy from the EPA,
697
00:32:46,009 --> 00:32:47,892
you were on solid ground.
698
00:32:47,927 --> 00:32:49,310
In Massachusetts it's illegal
699
00:32:49,345 --> 00:32:51,012
to record anybody
without two-party consent.
700
00:32:51,014 --> 00:32:54,099
But two things. One,
you are protected by the First Amendment.
701
00:32:54,150 --> 00:32:57,068
And two,
you were in Connecticut at the time.
702
00:32:57,103 --> 00:32:58,686
Yeah.
703
00:32:58,738 --> 00:33:01,523
I think I was okay
journalistically,
704
00:33:01,574 --> 00:33:04,025
and I'm pretty sure
I was okay legally.
705
00:33:04,076 --> 00:33:07,228
I'm just not sure
I was airtight morally.
706
00:33:07,263 --> 00:33:08,747
How did you hear us?
707
00:33:08,781 --> 00:33:10,498
I wasn't listening to music.
708
00:33:11,917 --> 00:33:13,418
What do you do?
709
00:33:13,452 --> 00:33:15,703
I teach.
Fordham Law School.
710
00:33:15,755 --> 00:33:19,140
You're pretty young for a law professor.
What do you teach?
711
00:33:19,175 --> 00:33:21,209
- Ethics.
- Get out of town.
712
00:33:21,260 --> 00:33:23,094
I'm trying.
I'm on an express train.
713
00:33:23,129 --> 00:33:25,547
Excuse me.
714
00:33:25,598 --> 00:33:28,550
- Hi.
- Hi. Could I...
715
00:33:28,601 --> 00:33:30,718
speak with you a second?
716
00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:32,771
- Sure.
- Yeah.
717
00:33:38,310 --> 00:33:40,228
I spoke to our counsel,
718
00:33:40,279 --> 00:33:42,897
and she says there's nothing
stopping you from running the story.
719
00:33:42,899 --> 00:33:45,066
I'm not doing anything
with the story.
720
00:33:45,068 --> 00:33:47,235
Our counsel says there's
nothing stopping you.
721
00:33:47,286 --> 00:33:50,488
If you want to speak to me on the record,
I'm happy to listen,
722
00:33:50,539 --> 00:33:53,291
but I'm not taking what I
overheard to my senior producer.
723
00:33:54,827 --> 00:33:58,963
I am willing to trade
you another story
724
00:33:58,998 --> 00:34:03,668
for the promise that you won't use
my candid remarks about the president.
725
00:34:03,719 --> 00:34:07,138
I have no intention
of using your candid remarks
726
00:34:07,173 --> 00:34:09,007
or even your
on-the-record remarks
727
00:34:09,058 --> 00:34:12,010
which were meant
for someone else.
728
00:34:12,895 --> 00:34:14,979
I just don't understand.
729
00:34:17,099 --> 00:34:19,984
I don't know how to make it
any clearer than that.
730
00:34:21,020 --> 00:34:22,904
Good luck.
731
00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:30,945
I think you're
freaking him out.
732
00:34:32,781 --> 00:34:36,000
How's your boss gonna feel
about you passing on a story?
733
00:34:36,035 --> 00:34:38,870
And then another story?
734
00:34:38,921 --> 00:34:40,788
Whatever the second story is,
735
00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:43,875
I'm not going to blackmail
him into giving it to me.
736
00:34:45,294 --> 00:34:47,679
You can save your students
a lot of time.
737
00:34:47,713 --> 00:34:49,881
On the first day of class,
738
00:34:49,932 --> 00:34:53,801
tell them they know the difference
between right and wrong.
739
00:34:53,803 --> 00:34:56,187
Do what's right.
They don't need a lawyer
740
00:34:56,222 --> 00:34:57,689
to tell them
their moral absolutes.
741
00:34:57,723 --> 00:35:00,975
And whenever you hear
someone giving a monologue
742
00:35:00,977 --> 00:35:02,477
defending the ethics
of their position,
743
00:35:02,528 --> 00:35:04,479
you can be pretty sure
they know they were wrong.
744
00:35:04,481 --> 00:35:07,615
Can I point something out to you?
You're giving a monologue.
745
00:35:07,650 --> 00:35:09,951
Everyone does where I work.
746
00:35:13,155 --> 00:35:15,106
You know what Vipassana is?
747
00:35:15,140 --> 00:35:16,624
It's a small Italian motorbike.
748
00:35:16,659 --> 00:35:19,077
- Not a Vespa. Vipassana.
- I know what Vipassana is.
749
00:35:19,128 --> 00:35:21,746
It's a meditation retreat in India
where you don't talk for a week.
750
00:35:21,797 --> 00:35:23,298
But feel free
to tell me anyway.
751
00:35:23,332 --> 00:35:25,250
Maybe two weeks.
Think I'm gonna do it.
752
00:35:25,301 --> 00:35:27,168
You should.
753
00:35:27,170 --> 00:35:28,419
You seem tense.
754
00:35:28,470 --> 00:35:30,505
Mm, you got that backwards,
money honey.
755
00:35:30,539 --> 00:35:33,591
No, I'm only a little tense because of
what's happening at the office right now.
756
00:35:33,626 --> 00:35:35,810
- Okay.
- All right.
757
00:35:35,844 --> 00:35:38,062
Hey,
it's my parents' 40th anniversary
758
00:35:38,097 --> 00:35:40,999
and the week after next there's a party.
Do you want to come?
759
00:35:42,318 --> 00:35:44,552
Absolutely, I do,
but here's the thing.
760
00:35:44,587 --> 00:35:47,322
- You might be on Vipassana?
- Or maybe a Yamaha.
761
00:35:47,356 --> 00:35:49,073
Big laugh from the crowd.
762
00:35:49,108 --> 00:35:51,609
All right, let's just...
Now we're meeting parents?
763
00:35:51,660 --> 00:35:53,077
And it all started
with a stock trade.
764
00:35:53,112 --> 00:35:55,179
You see how things spiral out of control?
They spiral.
765
00:35:55,214 --> 00:35:58,199
Just buy mutual funds.
There's nothing wrong with mutual funds.
766
00:35:58,201 --> 00:36:00,451
I feel like I'm being
tested right now.
767
00:36:01,754 --> 00:36:04,205
That's it? You're leaving?
Wait.
768
00:36:06,208 --> 00:36:08,209
I'm hailing a cab.
769
00:36:09,245 --> 00:36:11,379
All right.
Close one.
770
00:36:11,430 --> 00:36:12,697
Yeah.
771
00:36:12,731 --> 00:36:15,049
Yours is an unusual
position for a reporter.
772
00:36:15,051 --> 00:36:18,386
Who decides what's private and
what's information people should know?
773
00:36:18,437 --> 00:36:21,472
In the airspace right around me,
I do.
774
00:36:25,444 --> 00:36:28,396
- Hi.
- I'm not scamming you, Richard.
775
00:36:28,447 --> 00:36:30,648
I know.
Can I have a word?
776
00:36:30,699 --> 00:36:32,450
- Sure.
- Yeah.
777
00:36:38,574 --> 00:36:41,042
This report won't be
released for a week.
778
00:36:41,076 --> 00:36:43,328
The White House got it today,
but they won't show it
779
00:36:43,379 --> 00:36:45,463
to the president
until at least Monday.
780
00:36:46,715 --> 00:36:49,584
It's yours,
along with an exclusive interview.
781
00:36:49,586 --> 00:36:51,836
What's in it?
782
00:36:53,255 --> 00:36:55,640
The level of carbon dioxide
in the atmosphere
783
00:36:55,674 --> 00:36:58,259
has passed
a long-feared milestone.
784
00:36:58,261 --> 00:37:00,478
The amount of poison gas in
the air hasn't been this high
785
00:37:00,512 --> 00:37:02,347
in three million years,
since before there were humans.
786
00:37:02,398 --> 00:37:05,400
- We get the report?
- You get the report.
787
00:37:05,434 --> 00:37:07,435
Embargoed until Monday.
788
00:37:07,486 --> 00:37:09,437
And an exclusive interview.
789
00:37:09,488 --> 00:37:11,689
- With who?
- Me.
790
00:37:11,740 --> 00:37:13,825
Any chance we can get
the administrator?
791
00:37:13,859 --> 00:37:16,494
There hasn't been
an administrator
792
00:37:16,528 --> 00:37:18,746
of the Environmental
Protection Agency for a while
793
00:37:18,781 --> 00:37:21,282
because Senate Republicans
won't confirm one
794
00:37:21,333 --> 00:37:23,785
and the president doesn't want
to waste political capital.
795
00:37:23,836 --> 00:37:28,006
Though I'm not sure
what he's saving it up for.
796
00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:31,042
That statement
was on the record.
797
00:37:31,076 --> 00:37:33,594
Nice meeting you.
798
00:37:33,629 --> 00:37:37,598
Richard, be careful when you're
talking out loud in public.
799
00:37:37,633 --> 00:37:39,467
I was careful.
800
00:37:39,518 --> 00:37:41,853
Okay, but you just told
a train car full of people
801
00:37:41,887 --> 00:37:43,971
- that the apocalypse is nigh.
- Damn it.
802
00:37:44,023 --> 00:37:45,556
It's all right.
Nobody's listening.
803
00:37:45,607 --> 00:37:47,692
Tell me about it.
804
00:37:49,611 --> 00:37:52,930
It was nice meeting you, Jack.
I've got to get my bag.
805
00:37:52,965 --> 00:37:54,232
Isn't that your bag?
806
00:37:54,283 --> 00:37:56,451
This is a month's rent for me.
807
00:37:56,485 --> 00:37:58,069
It's my executive producer's.
808
00:37:58,120 --> 00:37:59,404
I don't know your name.
809
00:37:59,455 --> 00:38:00,922
Maggie Jordan.
810
00:38:00,956 --> 00:38:02,790
I'd love to call you.
811
00:38:05,494 --> 00:38:07,912
- Here's my card.
- Great.
812
00:38:11,383 --> 00:38:14,669
And, Jack,
I've got a report here from the EPA
813
00:38:14,671 --> 00:38:16,587
that says you probably
shouldn't wait that long.
814
00:38:19,258 --> 00:38:21,509
And the government's
complicity was covert,
815
00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:24,345
robbing the citizens in a democracy
of the information they need
816
00:38:24,347 --> 00:38:26,898
if they're going to have an intelligent
debate about foreign policy.
817
00:38:26,932 --> 00:38:29,734
Covert ops are why you don't hear
much about the Mafia anymore.
818
00:38:29,768 --> 00:38:31,686
Covert ops are why
your parents are alive.
819
00:38:31,737 --> 00:38:34,906
They're why there are fewer
nuclear scientists alive in Iran.
820
00:38:34,940 --> 00:38:36,858
Covert ops are what's
forcing al-Qaeda...
821
00:38:36,860 --> 00:38:39,527
Covert ops were
behind Iran-Contra
822
00:38:39,578 --> 00:38:41,112
and it was the press
who exposed it.
823
00:38:41,163 --> 00:38:43,748
Covert ops got money
and equipment and training
824
00:38:43,782 --> 00:38:46,367
to the mujahedeen after the
Soviets invaded Afghanistan.
825
00:38:46,369 --> 00:38:49,420
The press not knowing about it
is how Communism fell in Europe.
826
00:38:49,455 --> 00:38:51,506
- I can go all day long.
- God knows.
827
00:38:51,540 --> 00:38:53,541
Excuse me.
828
00:38:53,592 --> 00:38:55,126
- Where are you going?
- The men's room.
829
00:38:55,177 --> 00:38:58,346
Neal, leave behind the drive.
830
00:39:01,717 --> 00:39:02,884
Are you serious?
831
00:39:02,935 --> 00:39:05,853
Well,
you're hotheaded right now.
832
00:39:05,888 --> 00:39:08,523
Leave the flash drive
on the table.
833
00:39:16,815 --> 00:39:19,233
It's locked in a filing
cabinet under my desk.
834
00:39:21,570 --> 00:39:23,237
Are you getting my point?
835
00:39:23,288 --> 00:39:26,374
Yeah, you don't want Neal to go to
jail for 10 days and neither do I.
836
00:39:26,408 --> 00:39:27,992
But these are the rules
of cribbage.
837
00:39:28,043 --> 00:39:30,077
I could swallow this key,
you know.
838
00:39:30,129 --> 00:39:32,630
Yeah, 'cause what criminal
mastermind could open
839
00:39:32,664 --> 00:39:36,000
an Office Depot filing
cabinet without a key?
840
00:39:36,051 --> 00:39:40,555
You're thinking of different ways
to murder me right now.
841
00:39:47,263 --> 00:39:48,763
New York Observer.
842
00:39:48,814 --> 00:39:50,097
How did word get out this fast?
843
00:39:50,149 --> 00:39:51,933
Fast is the speed
at which word travels.
844
00:39:51,935 --> 00:39:53,484
It's been blowing up
for an hour.
845
00:39:53,519 --> 00:39:55,937
Yeah,
but I saw Charlie's statement and apology.
846
00:39:55,939 --> 00:39:57,438
He kept his promise.
He didn't name anyone.
847
00:39:57,440 --> 00:39:59,357
I did.
I outed myself on Twitter.
848
00:39:59,408 --> 00:40:01,275
My account, not the network.
849
00:40:01,277 --> 00:40:03,411
"Just left ACN
for the last time.
850
00:40:03,445 --> 00:40:05,079
Great five weeks.
Honest people.
851
00:40:05,113 --> 00:40:07,582
Sensational experience.
One regret.
852
00:40:07,616 --> 00:40:10,952
I tweeted a terrible joke on the network's account.
No one else involved."
853
00:40:10,954 --> 00:40:14,121
Least I could do was make sure no
one thought it was someone else.
854
00:40:14,123 --> 00:40:15,790
You're gonna get
plenty of job offers.
855
00:40:15,792 --> 00:40:18,292
I'm not worried.
I'm embarrassed.
856
00:40:18,343 --> 00:40:21,262
No one who knows you thinks you have
anything to be embarrassed about.
857
00:40:21,296 --> 00:40:24,015
There's a pretty strong consensus
among people who don't know me
858
00:40:24,049 --> 00:40:26,684
that I'm
"a stupid fucking libtard whore
859
00:40:26,718 --> 00:40:28,936
who should have been
dismembered on Boylston Street
860
00:40:28,971 --> 00:40:31,472
after first getting
sodomized by a jihadist."
861
00:40:31,523 --> 00:40:34,976
Pretty mild for the Internet,
but still.
862
00:40:39,148 --> 00:40:41,365
I appreciate...
863
00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:45,369
Charlie said that you did
everything you could to help me.
864
00:40:45,404 --> 00:40:48,322
Yeah.
And he knew we were dating.
865
00:40:48,324 --> 00:40:51,125
So he said he'd do it himself,
which was merciful.
866
00:40:51,159 --> 00:40:53,327
Are you saying you
volunteered to fire me?
867
00:40:53,378 --> 00:40:55,379
I wasn't volunteering.
It was my job.
868
00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:00,001
Daily Beast.
869
00:41:00,052 --> 00:41:02,420
Some of the offers are gonna be
from people who don't like us very much.
870
00:41:02,471 --> 00:41:04,388
Who doesn't like us?
871
00:41:04,423 --> 00:41:07,325
Not you and me. ACN.
For some of the outlets,
872
00:41:07,359 --> 00:41:09,594
being someone with an ax to grind
against us would be an asset.
873
00:41:09,645 --> 00:41:11,679
I don't have an ax to grind.
874
00:41:14,600 --> 00:41:16,601
Do you think that's
the reason I outed myself?
875
00:41:16,652 --> 00:41:18,519
Do I think... No.
876
00:41:18,570 --> 00:41:20,404
I was trying to do the right thing.
You think I put it out there as bait?
877
00:41:20,439 --> 00:41:22,523
I'm saying don't get played.
878
00:41:28,030 --> 00:41:29,697
Gawker.
879
00:41:37,873 --> 00:41:40,675
I needed a minute to adjust.
That's all that happened.
880
00:41:40,709 --> 00:41:43,511
I'd love to go to your parents'
40th anniversary party.
881
00:41:43,545 --> 00:41:46,097
There is no party.
I was testing you.
882
00:41:46,131 --> 00:41:47,832
Are you for real?
883
00:41:47,866 --> 00:41:51,385
You did the exact same thing I did when
Maggie asked me to meet her parents.
884
00:41:53,555 --> 00:41:56,190
You gave me a little test.
885
00:41:56,224 --> 00:41:58,059
You didn't do well.
886
00:41:58,061 --> 00:42:00,945
Is this something you read in Cosmo
while you were at the dentist?
887
00:42:00,979 --> 00:42:02,396
Yes.
888
00:42:02,447 --> 00:42:04,732
I said I'd go to the party
which doesn't exist
889
00:42:04,734 --> 00:42:06,617
because you're a lying
liar who lies a lot.
890
00:42:06,652 --> 00:42:08,486
It said the next thing
you'd do is deflect.
891
00:42:08,537 --> 00:42:10,905
Don't you like having a gal
pal that you can hang out with
892
00:42:10,907 --> 00:42:12,974
where there are extra
benefits like stock tips?
893
00:42:13,008 --> 00:42:15,660
- I can't use the stock tips.
- Then how about the sex?!
894
00:42:25,304 --> 00:42:27,555
- Hey.
- Hey.
895
00:42:27,589 --> 00:42:29,557
- Hey.
- Hi.
896
00:42:37,933 --> 00:42:40,768
- It would take a long time to explain.
- Yeah, yeah. Yeah.
897
00:42:53,615 --> 00:42:55,282
- Yes.
- Yes what?
898
00:42:55,334 --> 00:42:58,586
Yes, I love having a gal pal with
no commitment and tons of sex.
899
00:42:58,620 --> 00:43:00,121
- Great.
- Just not you.
900
00:43:00,172 --> 00:43:03,007
- What's wrong with me?
- Plenty, but I really like you anyway.
901
00:43:03,041 --> 00:43:05,626
I'm not good
at not being alone.
902
00:43:05,677 --> 00:43:08,095
It's what I'm used to.
903
00:43:08,130 --> 00:43:10,848
Let me know if you want
to get good at it.
904
00:43:13,802 --> 00:43:17,304
- The sex is good.
- Thank you.
905
00:43:17,356 --> 00:43:18,973
Invoking Leona Lansing
906
00:43:18,975 --> 00:43:20,775
is gonna get you
nowhere with me.
907
00:43:20,809 --> 00:43:23,611
Our fidelity is to our father's legacy,
not his mother's.
908
00:43:23,645 --> 00:43:26,280
Then I can tell you this is
not what he would have wanted.
909
00:43:26,314 --> 00:43:27,865
- Then fuck him, too, Charlie.
- Hey!
910
00:43:27,899 --> 00:43:29,533
- All right.
- Why didn't our mother get shares?
911
00:43:29,568 --> 00:43:32,653
'Cause she's not the one
that raised $42,350.
912
00:43:32,704 --> 00:43:34,372
She didn't build the company.
She married it.
913
00:43:34,406 --> 00:43:36,207
Yeah,
and like you poured the cement.
914
00:43:36,241 --> 00:43:37,875
As a matter of fact,
with an MBA,
915
00:43:37,909 --> 00:43:39,744
he insisted on starting
in the mail room.
916
00:43:39,795 --> 00:43:43,330
I understand we were born on third base,
but I'm stealing home now.
917
00:43:43,332 --> 00:43:45,883
- So that's about it.
- Shh.
918
00:43:45,917 --> 00:43:49,253
I'm not here.
I don't want to interrupt anything.
919
00:43:49,304 --> 00:43:50,971
Good afternoon, Leona.
920
00:43:51,006 --> 00:43:54,258
I'll tell you what.
Leona is for friends and family.
921
00:43:54,309 --> 00:43:57,978
If you're trying to poach my company,
I'd prefer Mrs. Lansing.
922
00:44:00,015 --> 00:44:03,734
Oh, Blair, you get more
beautiful every time I see you.
923
00:44:03,769 --> 00:44:04,852
How often is that?
924
00:44:04,903 --> 00:44:07,154
As infrequently as possible.
925
00:44:07,189 --> 00:44:10,691
I understand you've been out on
a date with Savannah Capital.
926
00:44:10,742 --> 00:44:12,326
And I let them take turns.
927
00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:15,196
Oh, and, Randy,
you like to watch, right?
928
00:44:15,198 --> 00:44:16,747
What?
929
00:44:16,782 --> 00:44:19,366
You know what happened
last month
930
00:44:19,418 --> 00:44:21,669
without anybody noticing?
This is for real.
931
00:44:21,703 --> 00:44:25,956
Webster's Dictionary expanded the
definition of the word literally
932
00:44:25,991 --> 00:44:28,676
to include the way
it's commonly misused.
933
00:44:28,710 --> 00:44:30,711
So the thing is,
we no longer have a word
934
00:44:30,713 --> 00:44:32,546
in the English language
that means literally.
935
00:44:32,581 --> 00:44:34,548
I mean,
literally doesn't have a synonym.
936
00:44:34,550 --> 00:44:37,401
So we're going to have to find
the Latin word for it and use it.
937
00:44:37,436 --> 00:44:39,019
But, see,
I don't know any Latin.
938
00:44:39,054 --> 00:44:42,022
So when I say that I am
literally gonna set fire
939
00:44:42,057 --> 00:44:45,760
to this building with you in it
before I hand over the keys to it,
940
00:44:45,794 --> 00:44:48,562
you don't know if I'm speaking
figuratively or literally.
941
00:44:48,564 --> 00:44:51,565
Savannah's offering
$81 per share,
942
00:44:51,567 --> 00:44:54,452
so if this is about money,
you'll accept 82 from me, right?
943
00:44:54,486 --> 00:44:56,654
- Mom.
- We're not interested in selling 6%.
944
00:44:56,705 --> 00:44:59,657
I'm not interested
in buying 6%!
945
00:44:59,708 --> 00:45:02,076
I don't want you anywhere
near this company.
946
00:45:02,127 --> 00:45:04,912
I want all of it.
947
00:45:04,946 --> 00:45:08,582
I am offering you one full dollar
per share more than Savannah.
948
00:45:08,633 --> 00:45:11,051
So if this is about the money,
you'll take it.
949
00:45:12,170 --> 00:45:13,721
$2.
950
00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:17,391
That's what I thought.
951
00:45:17,425 --> 00:45:21,262
I'll raise the cash and have an offer sheet
to you before your birthday.
952
00:45:21,313 --> 00:45:22,763
I tend to doubt it, but...
953
00:45:22,765 --> 00:45:25,766
Oh, get the fuck out
of my boardroom, kids.
954
00:45:29,070 --> 00:45:30,771
Hey.
955
00:45:30,822 --> 00:45:32,723
How come we couldn't be friends,
Blair?
956
00:45:32,757 --> 00:45:35,109
It's 'cause I can't stand you,
Mrs. Lansing.
957
00:45:35,160 --> 00:45:37,862
You've got to lose that anger,
honey.
958
00:45:37,913 --> 00:45:39,830
People get the face
they deserve.
959
00:45:39,865 --> 00:45:41,332
See you in 10 days.
960
00:45:43,752 --> 00:45:44,952
Are you out of your mind?
961
00:45:45,003 --> 00:45:48,455
$4 billion for
a $62 billion company?
962
00:45:48,457 --> 00:45:50,724
- It's a steal.
- It's not!
963
00:45:50,759 --> 00:45:54,011
- But even if it were...
- Yeah?
964
00:45:54,045 --> 00:45:57,598
I think he's trying to say
you don't have $4 billion.
965
00:45:57,632 --> 00:45:59,049
How much do I have?
966
00:45:59,100 --> 00:46:00,634
I don't know,
but it's somewhere in the ballpark
967
00:46:00,636 --> 00:46:03,387
of nothing close to $4 billion!
968
00:46:05,273 --> 00:46:08,475
Charlie, did I ever tell you
about the time my parents saw
969
00:46:08,527 --> 00:46:10,694
You Can't Take It With You
on Broadway?
970
00:46:10,729 --> 00:46:12,396
That was $42,000.
971
00:46:12,447 --> 00:46:15,950
No, $42,350.
972
00:46:15,984 --> 00:46:19,203
And it was the last 350
that were the hardest.
973
00:46:19,237 --> 00:46:21,455
Sold my clothes,
dealt a little weed.
974
00:46:21,489 --> 00:46:24,124
- Mom.
- Oh, I'm just kidding. I didn't sell my clothes.
975
00:46:24,159 --> 00:46:27,328
- This is for real.
- You think I don't fucking know that?
976
00:46:29,297 --> 00:46:33,083
I need $4 billion
cash right now.
977
00:46:36,888 --> 00:46:39,340
I don't know who this guy is.
I didn't vote for him.
978
00:46:39,374 --> 00:46:42,092
I don't want him making decisions on
his own about what's best for America.
979
00:46:42,143 --> 00:46:44,511
For all I know, he's one bad day
away from being Ted Kaczynski.
980
00:46:44,563 --> 00:46:47,848
We work with the FBI and the DOD to
determine what needs to be redacted.
981
00:46:47,899 --> 00:46:49,817
They're going to say
everything needs to be redacted.
982
00:46:49,851 --> 00:46:52,987
They know they have to convince me why.
And if I'm not sold...
983
00:46:53,021 --> 00:46:55,356
But just to get that far,
you have to call BCD, right?
984
00:46:55,407 --> 00:46:57,324
- To comment.
- That's it. That's the trip wire.
985
00:46:57,359 --> 00:47:00,744
You call BCD and Neal has to give up
his source or face a contempt charge.
986
00:47:00,779 --> 00:47:03,447
There's no route to the right
thing that doesn't include the possibility...
987
00:47:03,498 --> 00:47:05,699
The certainty
of a contempt charge.
988
00:47:05,701 --> 00:47:08,035
The route to the right thing
is this guy showing his face.
989
00:47:08,037 --> 00:47:10,371
Why is Neal paying the price
for this guy's patriotism?
990
00:47:10,422 --> 00:47:11,672
But we're past that.
991
00:47:11,706 --> 00:47:13,040
And if I could switch places with him,
I would.
992
00:47:13,091 --> 00:47:14,792
And I would tell
you the same thing,
993
00:47:14,843 --> 00:47:17,211
that a contempt charge could be the least...
Too many people...
994
00:47:17,213 --> 00:47:19,380
Look at how many people
are in this room.
995
00:47:19,382 --> 00:47:21,181
They're in this room
'cause they can be trusted.
996
00:47:21,216 --> 00:47:24,602
Too many people already know that a
more serious crime has been committed.
997
00:47:24,636 --> 00:47:26,053
The FBI doesn't know that.
998
00:47:26,104 --> 00:47:27,605
- What if they find out?
- How?
999
00:47:27,639 --> 00:47:29,056
The only other person
who knows is the source,
1000
00:47:29,058 --> 00:47:30,190
and he's not showing his face.
1001
00:47:30,225 --> 00:47:32,059
- What if he does?
- He won't.
1002
00:47:32,110 --> 00:47:34,061
So you completely trust a guy who
the only thing that we know about him
1003
00:47:34,112 --> 00:47:36,647
is that he stole classified documents
from the Department of Defense?
1004
00:47:36,698 --> 00:47:38,449
We are three exits
past that on the highway.
1005
00:47:38,483 --> 00:47:40,484
I don't know why
this is a discussion.
1006
00:47:40,535 --> 00:47:42,770
We obviously have
to pursue this story
1007
00:47:42,804 --> 00:47:45,539
and we need to start right now.
1008
00:47:45,573 --> 00:47:48,075
Wait here a second.
1009
00:47:48,077 --> 00:47:51,495
Jenna,
I want you to put some menus on my desk.
1010
00:47:51,546 --> 00:47:54,248
Three minutes after they get here,
I want you to come into my office
1011
00:47:54,250 --> 00:47:55,749
and ask for the menus back.
1012
00:47:55,751 --> 00:47:57,334
And that's it.
You got it?
1013
00:47:58,720 --> 00:48:01,255
- After who gets here?
- Trust me.
1014
00:48:13,652 --> 00:48:15,352
In the time that
you've been working here,
1015
00:48:15,403 --> 00:48:17,771
have you ever asked yourself why
we always walk into the studio
1016
00:48:17,822 --> 00:48:21,075
through that door when we could just
walk straight in over that threshold?
1017
00:48:21,109 --> 00:48:23,577
I did ask after I noticed it.
1018
00:48:23,611 --> 00:48:25,195
What'd they say?
1019
00:48:25,246 --> 00:48:27,748
They said it was superstition.
1020
00:48:27,782 --> 00:48:29,166
It's my superstition.
1021
00:48:29,200 --> 00:48:31,201
Never asked
anyone else to do it.
1022
00:48:31,252 --> 00:48:33,337
They just did.
1023
00:48:33,371 --> 00:48:36,507
It's a longer walk.
I kind of feel responsible for that.
1024
00:48:36,541 --> 00:48:39,960
You feel responsible
for a lot of things.
1025
00:48:40,011 --> 00:48:43,213
You already called BCD, right?
1026
00:48:43,264 --> 00:48:45,132
A few hours ago when you
went to the bathroom,
1027
00:48:45,183 --> 00:48:48,135
you were really calling
BCD for comment.
1028
00:48:48,137 --> 00:48:50,104
Yeah.
1029
00:48:50,138 --> 00:48:52,056
You can do the story
or not do the story,
1030
00:48:52,107 --> 00:48:56,643
but now a decision can't be made
that considers my protection.
1031
00:48:56,645 --> 00:48:58,729
I gave them my name.
1032
00:49:01,317 --> 00:49:03,317
For a long time
after you started here,
1033
00:49:03,368 --> 00:49:06,236
I didn't know your name.
1034
00:49:06,287 --> 00:49:08,155
You called me Punjab.
1035
00:49:08,157 --> 00:49:11,992
Yeah, you know, I...
1036
00:49:11,994 --> 00:49:14,078
I sure know it now.
1037
00:49:17,082 --> 00:49:19,083
Thank you.
1038
00:49:19,134 --> 00:49:20,834
Do something for me, would you?
1039
00:49:20,836 --> 00:49:23,637
- Sure.
- Give me the source.
1040
00:49:23,671 --> 00:49:25,255
I need some skin in the game
1041
00:49:25,306 --> 00:49:28,092
and they're gonna have a trickier
time of it with my profile.
1042
00:49:28,143 --> 00:49:30,144
They'll need a day
to figure out what to do
1043
00:49:30,178 --> 00:49:31,562
and negotiate
with me and Rebecca.
1044
00:49:31,596 --> 00:49:33,847
- Yeah, all right.
- One more thing.
1045
00:49:33,898 --> 00:49:36,850
Do you have any place you can
get to for a day or two?
1046
00:49:36,901 --> 00:49:38,435
It won't come to that.
1047
00:49:38,486 --> 00:49:41,238
Someplace you can get to
without using a credit card.
1048
00:49:41,272 --> 00:49:43,824
I can't tell if you're kidding.
1049
00:49:43,858 --> 00:49:45,359
Leave your phone
at home by accident.
1050
00:49:45,361 --> 00:49:47,327
Greyhound doesn't need
to know your name.
1051
00:49:47,362 --> 00:49:49,029
You know what I'm saying.
1052
00:49:49,031 --> 00:49:51,165
It's just contempt.
1053
00:49:51,199 --> 00:49:54,001
Why don't you go transcribe
your notes from the call to BCD
1054
00:49:54,035 --> 00:49:56,120
and distribute them
in the conference room?
1055
00:49:59,707 --> 00:50:02,176
Neal Sampat.
1056
00:50:08,433 --> 00:50:11,351
- Hello.
- We're on a break in there.
1057
00:50:11,386 --> 00:50:13,270
Don and I are a couple.
1058
00:50:13,304 --> 00:50:14,855
We've been seeing
each other for a few months.
1059
00:50:14,889 --> 00:50:17,808
You can tell anybody you want
and you can use the word couple.
1060
00:50:19,227 --> 00:50:21,111
- Don, what's going on?
- Yeah, don't worry about it.
1061
00:50:21,146 --> 00:50:22,813
Okay.
1062
00:50:25,784 --> 00:50:28,619
I would love to go to
your parents' made-up party.
1063
00:50:28,653 --> 00:50:30,204
Are you just saying that
because it's made up?
1064
00:50:30,238 --> 00:50:32,706
Because I would love to go on a
made-up hike with your cousins.
1065
00:50:32,740 --> 00:50:36,160
No, I'm saying it because
I'm in love with you.
1066
00:50:38,880 --> 00:50:40,964
I love you, Don.
1067
00:50:40,999 --> 00:50:43,634
You don't have to
say anything back.
1068
00:50:47,989 --> 00:50:50,307
- I...
- Ha, ha, ha!
1069
00:50:50,341 --> 00:50:51,725
Oh, shit!
1070
00:50:51,759 --> 00:50:53,260
You have been tested
and you failed that test.
1071
00:50:53,311 --> 00:50:55,312
I did not do well on that test.
1072
00:50:55,346 --> 00:50:57,598
- You bit down hard.
- I failed that test.
1073
00:50:57,600 --> 00:51:00,434
As long as you know that.
1074
00:51:00,436 --> 00:51:01,819
Are you worried about
getting scooped?
1075
00:51:01,853 --> 00:51:03,103
- No.
- Yes.
1076
00:51:03,105 --> 00:51:04,938
Because now I got to trust
that somebody else
1077
00:51:04,989 --> 00:51:07,241
is going to handle
the story responsibly.
1078
00:51:07,275 --> 00:51:09,193
What if whoever
the source goes to next
1079
00:51:09,244 --> 00:51:11,995
just makes a 27,000-page
document dump?
1080
00:51:12,030 --> 00:51:13,447
Nobody elected you either.
1081
00:51:13,498 --> 00:51:16,200
I agree there's a kink in the system,
but look at me.
1082
00:51:16,251 --> 00:51:19,536
Have you ever seen a more
trustworthy person in your life?
1083
00:51:19,587 --> 00:51:20,787
I was born like this.
1084
00:51:20,789 --> 00:51:23,590
By the way,
how much money do you have?
1085
00:51:23,625 --> 00:51:25,759
In the bank?
1086
00:51:25,793 --> 00:51:28,095
Yeah, in an unrelated matter,
1087
00:51:28,129 --> 00:51:30,631
Leona's gonna need,
like, $4 billion
1088
00:51:30,682 --> 00:51:33,383
or this network's
gonna be liquidated.
1089
00:51:33,434 --> 00:51:35,352
What was that?
1090
00:51:35,386 --> 00:51:37,304
Don't worry about it right now.
1091
00:51:47,649 --> 00:51:50,534
I'm Special Agent Hutchinson
and this is Special Agent Levy.
1092
00:51:50,568 --> 00:51:52,786
We're with the FBI and we
need to question Neal Sampat.
1093
00:51:52,820 --> 00:51:55,155
We also have a search warrant
under seal for your hard drives.
1094
00:51:55,206 --> 00:51:58,208
- Mac.
- I understand you two know each other socially?
1095
00:51:58,243 --> 00:52:00,244
I was telling Agent Hutchinson
1096
00:52:00,295 --> 00:52:02,579
I think we haven't seen
each other since Christmas.
1097
00:52:02,630 --> 00:52:04,498
Yeah, that's right.
It was...
1098
00:52:04,500 --> 00:52:07,668
It wasn't Christmas Eve,
it was the night before.
1099
00:52:07,719 --> 00:52:09,336
I'm Charlie Skinner.
I'm in charge.
1100
00:52:09,338 --> 00:52:11,004
A warrant under seal
means you're prohibited
1101
00:52:11,006 --> 00:52:12,556
from disclosing
that you were served.
1102
00:52:12,590 --> 00:52:14,007
If you disclose
that you were served...
1103
00:52:14,058 --> 00:52:15,893
- Agent Hutchinson, I'm...
- You're Rebecca Halliday.
1104
00:52:15,927 --> 00:52:17,678
You're the attorney
for Mr. Sampat.
1105
00:52:17,680 --> 00:52:19,146
Yeah.
1106
00:52:19,180 --> 00:52:22,149
I represent ACN
in First Amendment matters.
1107
00:52:22,183 --> 00:52:25,519
You should answer your phone.
1108
00:52:25,570 --> 00:52:27,905
It's going to be
the attorney general.
1109
00:52:30,191 --> 00:52:31,825
Rebecca Halliday.
1110
00:52:31,859 --> 00:52:33,410
Which of you is Neal Sampat?
1111
00:52:33,444 --> 00:52:34,861
Our lawyer has
just stepped away.
1112
00:52:34,913 --> 00:52:36,863
I have a warrant,
Mr. Skinner.
1113
00:52:36,865 --> 00:52:40,250
- Your lawyer knows...
- I'm Spartacus, sir. Neal's not in the room.
1114
00:52:40,285 --> 00:52:42,686
Why don't we go in my
office for a minute?
1115
00:52:42,720 --> 00:52:44,871
I want to talk to them alone.
1116
00:52:44,873 --> 00:52:47,007
Prepare the search,
but don't start.
1117
00:52:47,041 --> 00:52:49,760
You know how many hard
drives we have in this place?
1118
00:53:02,724 --> 00:53:04,441
Keep your voices very low.
1119
00:53:04,475 --> 00:53:06,226
You didn't tell me it was this.
1120
00:53:06,228 --> 00:53:09,029
I don't know what this is, Molly,
and I told you as little as possible.
1121
00:53:09,063 --> 00:53:11,865
I have to say, raiding a newsroom has
got to be damn near unprecedented.
1122
00:53:11,899 --> 00:53:14,451
We need to find this guy.
This is a bad guy.
1123
00:53:14,485 --> 00:53:15,786
We can't take
your word for that.
1124
00:53:15,820 --> 00:53:17,871
And as you well know,
bad guys are good sources.
1125
00:53:17,905 --> 00:53:20,073
We want to work with you
on this story and we want...
1126
00:53:20,124 --> 00:53:22,576
We want to work with you, too,
but we're going to question Neal Sampat.
1127
00:53:22,578 --> 00:53:24,578
The attorney general is on the
phone telling your lawyer
1128
00:53:24,629 --> 00:53:26,496
we're gonna hold him till
he gives up his source.
1129
00:53:26,547 --> 00:53:28,332
And I'll tell you what else.
1130
00:53:28,383 --> 00:53:31,051
There are three levels of Internet
systems the government works on.
1131
00:53:31,085 --> 00:53:32,636
This guy was working on JWICS
1132
00:53:32,670 --> 00:53:34,388
and we don't believe
he has the ability
1133
00:53:34,422 --> 00:53:36,173
to transfer content
to the protocol router.
1134
00:53:36,224 --> 00:53:38,258
So if we can prove
your guy helped him do it,
1135
00:53:38,260 --> 00:53:39,843
he's getting charged
with a full boat.
1136
00:53:39,894 --> 00:53:42,262
He's going to Leavenworth.
1137
00:53:42,313 --> 00:53:45,682
So if you want to work with us,
let's start.
1138
00:53:46,818 --> 00:53:48,735
- Excuse me.
- Yeah?
1139
00:53:48,770 --> 00:53:50,604
- I just need your menu.
- Sorry.
1140
00:53:50,655 --> 00:53:53,323
We're working
through dinner tonight.
1141
00:53:53,358 --> 00:53:55,609
Are we allowed to buy
your guys dinner?
1142
00:53:55,660 --> 00:53:57,444
No.
1143
00:53:57,446 --> 00:53:59,079
Thanks.
1144
00:54:00,581 --> 00:54:03,617
Molly,
I know the name of the source, too.
1145
00:54:04,585 --> 00:54:06,086
- You do?
- Yeah.
1146
00:54:06,120 --> 00:54:08,372
- Who else?
- That's it.
1147
00:54:10,008 --> 00:54:12,292
We need to start searching
your hard drives now.
1148
00:54:12,343 --> 00:54:14,928
We won't talk anymore till
your lawyer's in the room.
1149
00:54:26,190 --> 00:54:28,642
Excuse me.
Excuse me.
1150
00:54:30,611 --> 00:54:32,479
- What's going on?
- Welcome back.
1151
00:54:32,481 --> 00:54:34,564
Sloan, what's going on?
1152
00:54:34,615 --> 00:54:37,534
It's about Neal's story...
1153
00:54:38,903 --> 00:54:40,821
Go ahead.
1154
00:54:40,823 --> 00:54:43,874
Please step away
from the desks.
1155
00:54:43,908 --> 00:54:46,326
Could someone please tell me
where Neal Sampat works?
1156
00:54:50,164 --> 00:54:52,165
He works over there.
