00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:49,113
<i>...$223 billion,</i>

2
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:51,351
putting an edge on
the current fight on Capitol Hill

3
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:53,671
about how deeply to cut this year's spending,

4
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:56,269
along with projections
that it would bring the debt ceiling...

5
00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:58,875
Excuse me. The deficit to $1.6 trillion,

6
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:02,271
ensuring that the debt ceiling
will be hit during this fiscal year.

7
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:04,192
That's <i>News Night.</i> Thanks for washing us...

8
00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:06,033
Watching us. Let me get out of here.

9
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:09,318
Will McAvoy is coming up with
<i>The Capitol Report</i> from Washington.

10
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:11,113
I'm Terry... No.

11
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:12,680
<i>- Wow.</i>
- That's not true.

12
00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:14,880
End the broadcast.

13
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:16,599
<i>- I'm Will McAvoy.</i>
- Attaboy.

14
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:20,151
Terry Smith is coming up, mercifully,
with <i>The Capitol Report</i> from Washington.

15
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:21,879
- Good night.

16
00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:27,879
- What is wrong with you?
- I'm fine.

17
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:29,320
"Thank you for washing us"?

18
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:30,390
Think people noticed?

19
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:31,994
I do.

20
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:33,116
Stand here on this spot.

21
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:35,510
- What are you doing?
- Administering an eye exam.

22
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:37,910
- Excellent.
- Read the top line.

23
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:40,316
- E.
- Next line.

24
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:41,675
I don't know why
people think there's a problem

25
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:42,830
with health care in this country.

26
00:02:42,920 --> 00:02:44,912
- Our current system is fine.
- Next line.

27
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:47,993
L-G. The next line, R-T-Z.

28
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:51,152
The Greek letter for pi,
then geometric symbol for congruent,

29
00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:52,879
and something off
the table of natural elements.

30
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,077
Great, put your tie back on
and get in the studio

31
00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:57,391
so we can retape that for the West Coast.

32
00:02:58,760 --> 00:02:59,876
What's the problem?

33
00:02:59,960 --> 00:03:01,440
I didn't get much sleep last night.

34
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:03,034
- How much is not much?
- None.

35
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:04,510
Seriously?

36
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:06,717
I went to bed at midnight, didn't fall asleep.

37
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:08,359
Is this the first time that's happened?

38
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:10,033
- No.
- Is it the second time?

39
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:12,351
I'm having a little bout with insomnia.

40
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:13,669
Have you tried Ambien?

41
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:15,513
I don't wanna wake up
in the middle of the Triborough Bridge

42
00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:17,512
eating scrambled eggs in my pajamas.

43
00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:20,832
How those
eggs got into my pajamas I'll never know.

44
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:22,720
You shouldn't do Groucho.

45
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:24,075
But seriously, you need to sleep

46
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:26,470
or you're gonna forget to
thank people for washing us.

47
00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:28,114
I'm seeing my guy tomorrow at 10:00.

48
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:29,759
- Who's your guy?
- Abe.

49
00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:31,479
- Who's Abe?
- Dr. Habib.

50
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:33,392
You're still seeing Abe?

51
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,040
That's wonderful, Will.
Everyone could use a little therapy.

52
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:38,316
And you a lot more than most.
I'm glad you're doing that.

53
00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:39,430
Well...

54
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:40,795
You've been skipping appointments?

55
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:44,077
- Sometimes.
- When was the last time you saw him?

56
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:45,873
- What's today, the 12th?
- Yeah.

57
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,316
- About four years ago.
- Why did you stop seeing him?

58
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:50,471
- I've kept the appointments.
- What does that mean?

59
00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:52,199
I have an appointment
every Wednesday at 10:00.

60
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:54,795
- I just don't go.
- You've been paying him for four years?

61
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:56,274
- Don't be ridiculous.
- Thank God.

62
00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:58,511
I have a business manager who does that.

63
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:20,476
Why don't you read a magazine?

64
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:23,439
No, I've already read that issue
of <i>Cat Fancy</i> cover to cover

65
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,080
and I'm saving <i>American Stamp Collector</i>
for a long plane ride.

66
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:27,839
All right.

67
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:29,354
Why not just go to your regular doctor?

68
00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:31,717
When I go to my internist,
he asks me questions.

69
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:34,360
It's a half-hour interview
before he puts on a stethoscope.

70
00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:36,353
- What kinds of questions?
- I don't know.

71
00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:37,954
"How you feeling"?

72
00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:39,235
Asshole.

73
00:04:40,280 --> 00:04:42,431
Here, read <i>Vegan Health.</i>

74
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:45,554
- Will?
- Yeah.

75
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:48,237
I'm Jack Habib. Come on in.

76
00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:50,551
- Are you Abe's son?
- I am.

77
00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:52,030
Nice to meet you.

78
00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:54,271
- You, too. Come on in.
- Is your dad inside?

79
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:56,270
No.

80
00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:58,154
I can wait out here.

81
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:00,753
My father died two years ago

82
00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:02,473
and I took his practice. Come on in.

83
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:04,438
I'm sorry to hear that.

84
00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:06,876
Wait, what?

85
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:11,112
Will, I'm Dr. Jacob Habib,

86
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:13,237
son of Dr. Abraham Habib.

87
00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:16,916
My father passed away
and his patients now see me.

88
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:19,359
You've been paying me for two years.

89
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:21,914
Come on in.

90
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:23,596
How old are you?

91
00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:25,436
I'm 29.

92
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:28,275
- Shut up. Can you write prescriptions?

93
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:30,400
Yeah. Let's go.

94
00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:34,391
I'll be two minutes.

95
00:05:37,280 --> 00:05:39,192
So if you're 29...

96
00:05:39,280 --> 00:05:40,509
Don't try to count backwards.

97
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,991
I did everything early.
So unless you're certain

98
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:46,675
you've got a Doogie Howser
joke I haven't heard,

99
00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:49,320
why don't we just assume it
was hilarious and move on?

100
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:51,119
- Okay.
- So what's going on?

101
00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:53,032
I need something to help me sleep.

102
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:54,839
- Why?
- I can't sleep.

103
00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:58,278
- Why?
- I don't know.

104
00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:00,634
Any recent change in diet?

105
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:02,956
I haven't changed my diet since college.

106
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:05,077
- You should.
- I invented a new sandwich.

107
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:07,197
Scrambled eggs, bacon,
and melted cheese on toast.

108
00:06:07,280 --> 00:06:09,033
I make two of them every night
before I get into bed.

109
00:06:09,280 --> 00:06:10,919
You invented an Egg McMuffin.

110
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:12,196
Getting enough exercise?

111
00:06:12,280 --> 00:06:13,600
I have to scramble the eggs.

112
00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:15,353
And other than that?

113
00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:17,875
No. Look, any kind of sleeping pill will do.

114
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:19,553
Sure.

115
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:21,916
- Just talk a little bit?
- Oh, God, please, let's not.

116
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:28,279
- You're still taking Effexor?
- No.

117
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:29,680
- Clonazepam?
- No.

118
00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:30,910
- Ativan?
- No.

119
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:34,756
Four years ago, you were on 135mg of Effexor

120
00:06:34,840 --> 00:06:36,797
plus Clonazepam and Ativan at bedtime.

121
00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:38,149
I'm not anymore.

122
00:06:38,280 --> 00:06:40,078
- Why is that?
- I was cured.

123
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:41,640
These are all antianxiety medications.

124
00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:43,154
And I have no more anxiety.

125
00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:44,560
Except for not being able to sleep.

126
00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:46,757
Right, so if you'll just
give me a prescription for...

127
00:06:46,840 --> 00:06:48,638
Yeah, I'm going to.

128
00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:50,399
- Just a few more questions.
- Okay.

129
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:53,154
Any extra stress at work?

130
00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:54,674
Extra stress?

131
00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:55,796
- Yeah.
- No.

132
00:06:56,280 --> 00:06:58,511
- No extra stress?
- No.

133
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:00,314
- One more question.
- Sure.

134
00:07:01,280 --> 00:07:03,192
What are you fucking around with me for?

135
00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:06,760
- I'm sorry?
- What are you fucking around with me for?

136
00:07:06,840 --> 00:07:08,354
I just asked if there's
any extra stress at work,

137
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:09,874
- and you say...
- There isn't.

138
00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:11,958
There isn't.

139
00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:15,272
- What about the death threat?
- You know about that?

140
00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:16,914
Anyone who reads a newspaper
knows about that.

141
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:18,997
- It's truly not a big deal.
- No?

142
00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:20,958
Jack, can I get the prescription?

143
00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:23,436
Just tell me how a death threat
isn't a big deal.

144
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:25,079
I used to be a criminal prosecutor.

145
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:27,954
And I'm telling you
nobody who's serious about killing you

146
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:29,599
sends you a note beforehand to warn you.

147
00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:31,751
The gentleman who is with you
in the waiting room,

148
00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:32,830
he's a bodyguard, right?

149
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:34,274
Yeah, but you shouldn't... That's the...

150
00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:37,080
Our insurance company makes that decision.

151
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:38,316
Based on what?

152
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:41,154
They have experts who determine
whether a cret is threadible...

153
00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:42,510
Threat is credible.

154
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:44,432
And why do they think the threat is credible?

155
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:46,358
Nine questions ago,
you said one more question.

156
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:47,715
Why do they think the threat is credible?

157
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:50,872
Because I changed the rules
of the comment section of our website.

158
00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:54,230
That's all.
I changed the rules of the comment section.

159
00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:56,277
As always, or at least since Monday,

160
00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:59,512
we end our show with your own
viewer comments on our website.

161
00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:01,239
So let's see what we have tonight.

162
00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:04,156
LollypopLollypop says, "30 more seconds

163
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:07,995
"and you would have had
that self-loathing hypocrite in tears."

164
00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:11,835
That... That was absolutely not my intention.

165
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,390
SurrendrDorothee said,
"Your Log Cabin closet case

166
00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:16,398
"hit the Uncle Tom Daily Double,

167
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:20,036
"a traitor to his race
and a traitor to his sexual orientation."

168
00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:21,554
Don't blow a gasket.

169
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:24,519
He's plainly not a closet case.
He's openly gay.

170
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:27,991
I also think he showed
a lot of courage coming on the show.

171
00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:31,517
Certainly more courage than it takes
to post an anonymous comment on a website.

172
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:35,195
<i>Terry Smith's coming up from Washington
with</i> The Capitol Report.

173
00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:36,760
<i>I'm Will McAvoy. Good night.</i>

174
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:42,559
<i>We're out.</i>

175
00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:49,516
- Neal!
- Believe me, those were the best two we had.

176
00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:51,319
Why didn't we just
hit him in the head with a shovel?

177
00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:53,232
- We've got to talk about what just happened.
- I'm trying to.

178
00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:55,357
Not the website. We've gotta talk
about what happened on the air.

179
00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:56,874
- I don't wanna talk.
- Were you outside your body?

180
00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:57,950
I don't want to talk about it.

181
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:00,760
- I want to talk about the website.
- The website's not the problem right now.

182
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:03,230
It's my problem right now.
We're putting up these comments...

183
00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:05,039
- We've heard this before.
- But we're still doing it.

184
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:08,557
It's a trade with Reese.
The page views offset the ratings drop.

185
00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:11,633
Is there any way of knowing
if LollypopLollypop is 10 years old?

186
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:13,114
Or a basset hound?

187
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:14,959
The reason basset hounds
have such long ears

188
00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:17,839
is so they can waft up the scent
when they're hunting.

189
00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:19,877
- Is there any way of knowing?
- No.

190
00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:21,952
Is there any way of knowing
if LollypopLollypop

191
00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:24,311
- and SurrendrDorothee are the same person?
- No.

192
00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:26,393
Who posts comments on the Internet more,

193
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:28,039
people who are content
or people who are incontent?

194
00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:29,190
- Discontent.
- What?

195
00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:30,714
It's discontent, not incontent.

196
00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:33,960
- It's about 30-to-1 incontent.
- Discontent.

197
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:35,759
Final question. In your wildest dreams,

198
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:38,674
can you imagine Walter Cronkite
saying "LollypopLollypop"

199
00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:40,433
as many times as I have
in the last 10 minutes?

200
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:42,796
Not unless he was in
an a cappella doo-wop group, no.

201
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:45,079
He wasn't. Here's what I'd love.

202
00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:46,833
You want to join the discussion, fine.

203
00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:48,912
I want to know your name, age, occupation,

204
00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:50,957
- and level of education.
- Oh, God.

205
00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:53,600
The thing about the Internet
is it's a populist tool.

206
00:09:53,680 --> 00:09:56,991
Populists have names, too.
William Jennings Bryan, Will Rogers, me.

207
00:09:57,080 --> 00:09:58,275
- Will.
- Unless you're Deep Throat

208
00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:01,319
or in the Witness Protection Program,
anonymity is cowardice.

209
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:03,596
You're in a mob.
You're lobbing smack from the cheap seats.

210
00:10:03,680 --> 00:10:05,273
Don't we have bigger fish to fry than the...

211
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:07,317
Yes, but we can fry
more than one fish at a time.

212
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:09,676
And how could we possibly
verify someone's name,

213
00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:12,594
- age, occupation, and level of education?
- Neal?

214
00:10:12,680 --> 00:10:15,832
We implement
a third-party verification service.

215
00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:17,593
All you had to say was, "We can't,"

216
00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:20,110
- and the conversation would have been over.
- So it is possible?

217
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,590
It's what the IRS uses
when you're filing online.

218
00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:24,274
Talk to me, Tonto.

219
00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:26,158
- I can do it if you want.
- I want.

220
00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:29,074
Won't the result be that nobody posts
comments on our website anymore?

221
00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:32,073
First of all, oh no. What will we do
without feedback from SurrendrDorothee?

222
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:36,035
And second, the result will be our website
will ghettoize every other website.

223
00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:38,430
The result will be civility in the public square

224
00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:39,749
and a triumph of populism.

225
00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:42,560
I'm going to single-handedly fix the Internet.

226
00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:44,871
- What could possibly go wrong?
- Will!

227
00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:47,475
- What?
- We have to talk about what just happened.

228
00:10:47,560 --> 00:10:49,392
No, we don't. We're just gonna move on.

229
00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:53,474
And when did you get the death threat?

230
00:10:53,560 --> 00:10:56,678
I don't know.
A day after the mosque interview.

231
00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:59,713
<i>We know that an Islamic trend
is to build large mosques</i>

232
00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:02,235
<i>on the cherished sites of conquered lands.</i>

233
00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:04,960
<i>- You're talking about Cordoba.
- That's exactly right.</i>

234
00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:08,511
<i>When Muslims conquered Cordoba, Spain,
they tore down churches</i>

235
00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:11,320
<i>and synagogues
and put mosques in their place.</i>

236
00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:14,558
Ms. Greer, Muslims conquered Cordoba
in the year 712.

237
00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:18,680
Do you think we can call something
that last happened in the 8th century a trend?

238
00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:20,991
She'll say,
"Why does it have to be at Ground Zero?"

239
00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:23,356
<i>Anyone being honest about
the prospect of a mosque</i>

240
00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:27,878
<i>being built so close to Ground Zero
would say it instinctually feels wrong.</i>

241
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:30,037
<i>Is it legal? Of course it is.</i>

242
00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:32,476
<i>Is it wrong? Of course it is.</i>

243
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:34,637
It should be built somewhere
where the 9/11 families

244
00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:38,031
don't have to feel the agony of having
a shrine to their loved ones stomped upon.

245
00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:41,716
<i>All over America
we're seeing the influence of creeping Islam.</i>

246
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:42,990
We are?

247
00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:44,998
What about those
who would impose Sharia law?

248
00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:47,470
<i>Women can be stoned to death
for committing adultery.</i>

249
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:48,636
No, they can't.

250
00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:51,030
Actual laws are the only laws
that are enforceable,

251
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:53,919
including the one that says
you can't create religious laws.

252
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,515
And the US is in no more danger
of coming under Sharia law

253
00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:58,000
than it is the rules of <i>Fight Club.</i>

254
00:11:58,080 --> 00:11:59,309
<i>Let me ask you something.</i>

255
00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:03,838
<i>Muslims the world over are fighting a civil war
over the direction Islam is taking.</i>

256
00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:06,355
<i>Are you going to be stationed
at the door of that mosque</i>

257
00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:08,397
<i>to turn radicals away?</i>

258
00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:10,597
<i>Can you guarantee that the current imam</i>

259
00:12:10,680 --> 00:12:13,070
<i>is going to be the same
imam 10 years from now?</i>

260
00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:16,232
It's worth pointing out that it's not a mosque.
It's a community center.

261
00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:18,118
<i>I'm not sure why you think
that makes it better.</i>

262
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:21,352
<i>What business does a community center have
in the religion business?</i>

263
00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:23,159
And then pivot to the larger point.

264
00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:26,278
I want the art and graphics reviewed
three times before air.

265
00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:28,079
<i>Ms. Greer, you mentioned creeping Islam.</i>

266
00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:31,039
<i>Are you concerned about
creeping Christianity?</i>

267
00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:33,032
<i>Only that it's not creeping fast enough.</i>

268
00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:35,436
Okay, here are some
things done on American soil

269
00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:37,159
in the name of Christianity.

270
00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:40,035
<i>The Ku Klux Klan burned
down black churches,</i>

271
00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:43,557
<i>raped women, murdered civil rights workers,
murdered children,</i>

272
00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:46,280
<i>and terrorized communities
for over a century.</i>

273
00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:51,230
The neo-Nazis all acted and continue to act
in the name of white Christian supremacy.

274
00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:53,630
The Army of God
fatally attacks abortion clinics

275
00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:55,359
<i>and doctors across the country.</i>

276
00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:57,671
<i>The Covenant, The Sword,
and The Arm of the Lord</i>

277
00:12:57,760 --> 00:12:59,877
<i>targets local police and federal agents.</i>

278
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:02,397
The federal building in Oklahoma City,

279
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:04,790
the attempted assassination
of Ronald Reagan,

280
00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:07,793
and the successful assassinations
of Martin Luther King,

281
00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:09,758
John F. Kennedy,

282
00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:11,718
John Lennon,

283
00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:12,916
and Abraham Lincoln,

284
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:14,957
all perpetrated by Christians.

285
00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:18,477
Ms. Greer, we weren't attacked by Muslims.
We were attacked by sociopaths.

286
00:13:18,560 --> 00:13:22,793
And I, for one, would join you in protesting
a community center for the criminally insane.

287
00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:26,510
But no one is suggesting building one.

288
00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:28,356
Here's the thing about the Japanese.

289
00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:30,955
Where we tend to hype things up,
they go the other direction.

290
00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:33,037
You think they're lowballing Fukushima?

291
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:34,315
I don't know anything about nuclear reactors,

292
00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:36,039
and I'm not at all involved in this story.

293
00:13:36,560 --> 00:13:38,791
I'm just saying I wouldn't
take their word for it it's a level five.

294
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:41,760
Excuse me, Will. There's a comment
on your website you need to see.

295
00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:44,437
Now I get to say who is it from?
What do they do?

296
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:45,636
It's serious.

297
00:13:53,680 --> 00:13:55,319
From about 25 minutes ago.

298
00:13:56,680 --> 00:13:59,149
"Fucking sand niggers
should get herded and slaughtered.

299
00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:02,472
"I've got a bullet for you, too.
You think I'm fucking around?

300
00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:04,874
"2 Hudson Street, 27."

301
00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:07,520
- Is 2 Hudson 27...
- It's my address and apartment number.

302
00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:10,479
Alice Cynkar, an English professor at OSU.

303
00:14:10,560 --> 00:14:11,676
It wasn't written by an English professor,

304
00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:13,319
and it wasn't written by Alice Cynkar.

305
00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:15,352
How much effort does it take
to scam the new system?

306
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:16,556
You've got to want it pretty bad.

307
00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:17,835
Millie, it's MacKenzie.

308
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:19,997
Would you tell him we're
coming right up, please?

309
00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:24,518
They could have stolen her password.

310
00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:26,751
- How hard is that?
- Hard.

311
00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:28,957
We implemented complex
password requirements on the site

312
00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:32,033
because we knew it was catnip
for some sophomore at MIT.

313
00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:34,874
It would take an average computer
57 days to get in.

314
00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:36,360
And that's with someone
who knows what they're doing.

315
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:38,272
How many days has the new system been up?

316
00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:40,120
- Three.
- Jesus.

317
00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:41,709
- Will...
- Everybody relax.

318
00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:44,031
Neal just said it.
It's a college kid pledging a frat.

319
00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:45,520
With a death threat? No.

320
00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:48,116
Charlie, I want a body on him
until this guy's in handcuffs.

321
00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:49,879
- No way.
- You're not gonna have a choice.

322
00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:52,350
- The insurance company makes that call.
- Come on.

323
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:55,114
Listen to me.
This goes to AWM security right now.

324
00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:57,237
Security's got to show it
to the insurance company.

325
00:14:57,320 --> 00:14:59,551
And that's going to trigger
some kind of protection.

326
00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:02,394
Wouldn't it make more sense for me
just to wear a different disguise every day?

327
00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:03,709
One more thing.

328
00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:05,672
There's gonna be a tabloid story.

329
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:07,598
- Good. Yeah.
- What did I do?

330
00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:10,673
Is it possible Maggie
filed a complaint with HR

331
00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:12,991
saying that you created
a hostile work environment?

332
00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:14,116
No, it's not possible.

333
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:16,078
Maggie wouldn't complain
if her hair was on fire.

334
00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:17,310
Someone else did on her behalf.

335
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:19,513
And it was a while ago before you got here.

336
00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:21,270
Thanks.

337
00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:23,432
Would you excuse us for a second?

338
00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:25,513
Sure.

339
00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:28,880
Why don't we try to fully investigate
the anatomy of these stories?

340
00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:31,520
- No, we're gonna fully investigate Will.
- Of course.

341
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:34,672
I want you to assign a team
to do opposition research on Will.

342
00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:37,195
Let's call it
Operation Involuntary Colonoscopy.

343
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:40,637
I just want to know what the next
tabloid story is before it happens.

344
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:42,916
You won't be able to pin
nothing on me, Mugsy.

345
00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:45,390
'Cause I've lived my life
straight as the Kingston Trio.

346
00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:47,437
I'm not fucking around!

347
00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:50,513
You know, when you're grumpier than I am,
we've switched roles.

348
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:53,277
Ask him what's the current
state of the reactors.

349
00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:01,830
What did he say?

350
00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:08,031
- What did he say?
- His daughter's on the diving team.

351
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:10,510
They came in second at regionals.

352
00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:13,513
- Did he understand the question?
- Did you?

353
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:16,237
I haven't spoken to him in two years.
We're catching up.

354
00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:19,359
How does a company like TEPCO not have
a spokesperson who speaks English?

355
00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:22,630
- I don't know.
- What is the current state of the reactors?

356
00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:24,200
Tanaka-san...

357
00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:37,360
Units one and three have had explosions
due to hydrogen buildup.

358
00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:39,477
They're currently stable,
but they're not safe to enter.

359
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:42,035
What are they doing to contain the situation?

360
00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:48,796
- What's going on with Will?
- Internal security is handling it.

361
00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:50,633
But I have to give you a rotten assignment.

362
00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:52,513
- You got gum in your hair again?
- No.

363
00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:54,478
Yes, but I got it out.

364
00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:56,597
I need you to do opposition research on Will.

365
00:16:57,400 --> 00:16:58,834
- Seriously?
- About a year ago,

366
00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:01,276
somebody filed a complaint with HR
on your behalf.

367
00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:03,870
I know what that was.
Will didn't do anything wrong.

368
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:05,150
- This is ridiculous.
- I know,

369
00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:07,391
but Charlie wants to know
what else is out there so he can...

370
00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:08,596
- Will knows we're doing this?
- Of course.

371
00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:10,154
- And he's okay with it?
- No, he hates it.

372
00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:12,197
- Fantastic.
- Go to work.

373
00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:16,273
- Have you done this before?
- Yeah.

374
00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:17,993
Where do we start?

375
00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:19,400
Tell me about the complaint.

376
00:17:20,120 --> 00:17:23,318
There was a desk producer
who saw Will yell at me about something.

377
00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:25,551
- What?
- Doesn't matter.

378
00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:27,913
What?

379
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:29,596
Doesn't matter.

380
00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:37,676
- I mixed up Georgia the state with...
- No.

381
00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:39,513
- Yes, Georgia the country.
- And this was...

382
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:41,353
- Yup. This isn't about me.
- ...during the invasion?

383
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:43,397
You thought the Russians invaded Atlanta?

384
00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:45,233
In retrospect, it seems farfetched.

385
00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:47,630
But that wasn't what
he was actually mad about.

386
00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:51,392
The wife of a board member died
and Will asked me to send flowers.

387
00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:55,713
I wrote on the card,
"I'm so sorry about your loss. LOL."

388
00:17:56,120 --> 00:17:58,999
- LOL?
- I thought it meant "lots of love."

389
00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:01,039
How are you still working here?

390
00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:03,600
I dodge bullets.

391
00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:05,672
Here comes a bullet. Boom! I'm over here.

392
00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:08,838
Ping! Here comes another bullet.
Boom! I'm over here.

393
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:15,677
Ask him if TEPCO's gonna try
to keep the reactors going.

394
00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:16,830
Tanaka-san...

395
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:29,350
They're classified at level five

396
00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:31,033
and they think they'll be able
to get the reactor going.

397
00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:40,316
Guys, do me a favor and let us have a minute?

398
00:18:56,360 --> 00:19:00,798
Daisuke, the others have left the room
and I'm alone now.

399
00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:03,039
I understand.

400
00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:07,120
Do you still want to stand by your statement
that the reactor's going to stay at level 5?

401
00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:10,917
That is the statement that I made.

402
00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:16,998
Daisuke, are people in the area
in more danger than you're telling us?

403
00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:22,550
I'm not an expert in this field.
I'm just a spokesperson for TEPCO.

404
00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:26,631
Have you heard anyone talk about
the radiation exceeding level 5?

405
00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:35,398
Daisuke, we've known each other a long time.

406
00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:37,597
Anybody know where Sloan Sabbith is?

407
00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:39,989
Sloan!

408
00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:41,309
She's on the phone.

409
00:19:42,360 --> 00:19:44,352
All right, she's off the phone.

410
00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:50,070
Here are the notes.
It's gonna go to level seven.

411
00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:51,954
- Holy shit.
- You got a minute?

412
00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:53,879
Fukushima's a lot worse
than they're telling you.

413
00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:56,395
- I need you to fill in for Elliot tonight.
- This is what the Japanese do.

414
00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:57,516
They... Wait, what?

415
00:19:57,600 --> 00:19:59,671
- I need you to fill in for Elliot at 10:00.
- Why?

416
00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:01,359
His 5-year-old's having a tonsillectomy today.

417
00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:03,113
Elliot's gonna spend the night
in the hospital with her.

418
00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:05,715
- Was it an emergency?
- No, it was scheduled a week ago.

419
00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:07,200
And you're just getting around to this now?

420
00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:08,396
I...

421
00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:09,960
- Forgot?
- Yes.

422
00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:12,032
You have a staff.
They can write these things down.

423
00:20:12,120 --> 00:20:14,715
They can, but I have to
remember to tell them to.

424
00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:16,792
So what do you say?
You're my first and only choice.

425
00:20:17,120 --> 00:20:18,873
- What about Jerome?
- He's in Bermuda.

426
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:20,952
- Kathy?
- It's her parents' 50th anniversary.

427
00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:22,110
- Taylor?
- Bronchitis.

428
00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:23,879
- So...
- Yes, you were my fourth and only choice.

429
00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:25,872
I can't host Elliot's show. Don't be ridiculous.

430
00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:27,394
You host your own show at 4:00.

431
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:29,437
- About financial news.
- You're expanding.

432
00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:32,640
Come on. I gained four freaking pounds.

433
00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:34,480
No, professor.

434
00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:36,878
- Right, expanding.
- Yeah.

435
00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:40,040
- No, I'm not doing it.
- Your copy will be written for you to approve.

436
00:20:40,120 --> 00:20:42,077
You've got Marco Rubio, Sandra Bernhard...

437
00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:43,913
Sandra Bernhard's been dead for 100 years.

438
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:45,832
- That's Sarah Bernhardt.
- She'd be a good guest.

439
00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:47,115
- I hate my life.
- Hmm?

440
00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:49,590
Nothing. And the spokesperson for TEPCO.

441
00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:51,797
- I just got off the phone with him.
- See? You're perfect.

442
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:53,917
I was just doing a favor for these guys.
I don't know anything...

443
00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:56,231
Thank God my first five
choices weren't available.

444
00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:57,515
I thought there were only three.

445
00:20:57,760 --> 00:20:58,955
Let's not get caught up in the math.

446
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:00,953
If you want a wardrobe change after the 4:00,

447
00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:03,157
we have Gucci ready to
send over some choices.

448
00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:06,280
- Gucci?
- A whole rack of choices.

449
00:21:06,360 --> 00:21:08,750
Your copy will be ready
for your approval after 9:00

450
00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:12,277
along with your questions,
and I will be in your ear the whole time.

451
00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:14,557
Except for Fukushima,
you're mostly throwing to packages.

452
00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:16,074
They've been lowballing the radiation levels.

453
00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:17,116
I'd take their word for it.

454
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:18,600
The Japanese have
some experience with radiation.

455
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:19,750
You think that's something...

456
00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:22,998
That is not something
you should mention on the air.

457
00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:30,157
- Oh, God.
- Mr. Will McAvoy.

458
00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:31,959
You're not here to do my taxes, right?

459
00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:33,190
My name's Lonny Church.

460
00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:36,195
Mr. Horn at AWM Security
told you I'd be here at this time.

461
00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:37,714
I'll tell you right now I'm gonna hate this.

462
00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:39,194
I'll tell you now I'm not gonna care.

463
00:21:39,360 --> 00:21:41,716
- Let's go in my office for a minute.
- Sure.

464
00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:44,273
It's not a real threat.

465
00:21:44,360 --> 00:21:46,750
I don't make that decision.

466
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:49,310
Lonny Church? Did you play college football?

467
00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:51,710
Yes, I did. Defensive tackle.

468
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:53,996
- Started three years for Clemson.
- And then?

469
00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:56,037
Got drafted in the eighth round
by the Bengals.

470
00:21:56,120 --> 00:21:58,760
- And then?
- Got cut five weeks into training camp.

471
00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:00,480
Excellent.

472
00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:02,358
Joined the Army, became an MP.

473
00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:04,955
- Where were you deployed?
- New Jersey.

474
00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:06,759
You see a lot of action in New Jersey?

475
00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:08,274
See a lot of action in your studio?

476
00:22:08,360 --> 00:22:09,874
I'll be doing the jokes, okay?

477
00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:12,475
- After you were discharged?
- Honorably.

478
00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:13,920
I joined Blue North Security.

479
00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:16,232
Who else's body have you guarded?

480
00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:17,754
- We don't talk about that.
- Okay.

481
00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:19,953
Kanye. It was awesome.

482
00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:21,394
Are you armed?

483
00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:23,790
I secure my weapon in a gun safe
when I come in the building.

484
00:22:24,120 --> 00:22:26,555
Keep it there.
I really don't want an armed guard.

485
00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:29,519
Maybe if you were drafted
in the first four rounds, I'd feel safer.

486
00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:31,398
- Mr. McAvoy...
- You can call me Will.

487
00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:32,630
Yeah, I was gonna do that anyway.

488
00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:34,400
I know you're used to being the boss.

489
00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:37,434
But you're not anymore.
At least for a little while.

490
00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:38,630
How long?

491
00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:40,712
Until my colleagues chase down
the source of the threat

492
00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:43,360
or, of course, if you've been
successfully assassinated.

493
00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:45,872
- A joke?
- What'd you think?

494
00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:48,557
It was all right. How does this work?

495
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:51,519
I pick you up at your home in the morning
and escort you to your office.

496
00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:54,394
Then I pick you up at your office at night
and escort you to your home.

497
00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:56,915
I'm with you any place
that's an unsecured area.

498
00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:58,514
What's an unsecured area?

499
00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:00,671
Any place that isn't your home or your office.

500
00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:03,080
I'm single. What about a date?

501
00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:05,318
I don't think we should
get romantically involved.

502
00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:07,551
- You get one joke a day.

503
00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:08,994
- Come on in.
- I say that.

504
00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:11,633
- I'm sorry. You got a second?
- Yeah.

505
00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:12,950
I'll leave you.

506
00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:14,838
Sloan, this is Lonny. You'll see him around.

507
00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:17,631
- Good to meet you.
- Wow.

508
00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:20,471
- Can I tap your chest?
- Sure.

509
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,356
Holy cow.

510
00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:27,072
- Have you felt his pecs?
- No, I haven't yet.

511
00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:29,231
I'll be downstairs.

512
00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:33,160
So I'm hosting Elliot's show tonight.

513
00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:34,833
I know. I'm the one who suggested you.

514
00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:37,030
You really think I can do it?

515
00:23:37,120 --> 00:23:39,999
No, I have no idea. So we're gonna find out.

516
00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:43,034
All right. Well, your exuberant
confidence notwithstanding,

517
00:23:43,120 --> 00:23:45,874
- I have the spokesperson...
- From TEPCO, I know.

518
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:48,276
He just told me, off the record,
that reactor three

519
00:23:48,360 --> 00:23:51,751
is causing what is a level seven,
not a level five, radiation leak.

520
00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:54,316
What's the trick to getting him to
say it on the record?

521
00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:57,359
There is no trick.
You just don't stop until he tells the truth.

522
00:23:57,440 --> 00:23:59,432
What do you mean you don't stop?

523
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:00,510
I mean you don't stop.

524
00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:03,752
Sloan, I watch your show
at 4:00 and you're brilliant.

525
00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:06,594
But you let guests
say things that I know you know aren't true.

526
00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:09,878
And then you just move on.
Ask the damn follow-up

527
00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:12,395
and then demonstrate with facts
how the guest is lying.

528
00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:14,119
You can't just sit there and be a facilitator

529
00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:16,795
for whatever bullshit
the guest wants to feed your viewers.

530
00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:19,520
They're not coming on to plug a movie.
It's not <i>Jimmy Kimmel.</i>

531
00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:22,559
You knowingly, passively,
allow someone to lie on your air,

532
00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:25,196
and maybe you're not a drug dealer,
but you're sure as hell

533
00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:28,239
the guy who drives the dealer
around in your car.

534
00:24:28,360 --> 00:24:30,670
So maybe you'll get it, maybe you won't.
Show me something.

535
00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:34,993
- Got it.
- Do you?

536
00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:37,756
Yeah.

537
00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:42,431
<i>I just... I don't know.
I was in a bad mood.</i>

538
00:24:43,120 --> 00:24:45,157
<i>Honestly, I was just trying to motivate her.</i>

539
00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:47,597
She's the last person who needs motivation,

540
00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:49,911
- so it just ended up...
- Scaring her.

541
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:52,989
I hate that people are scared of me.

542
00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:55,037
- I absolutely hate it.
- Why?

543
00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:57,479
Why do I hate when people are scared of me?

544
00:24:57,600 --> 00:24:59,239
For the same reason everybody does.

545
00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:01,040
Everybody doesn't.

546
00:25:01,120 --> 00:25:03,555
Some people like it. Most people don't care.

547
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:06,429
I don't know what to tell you. I don't like it.

548
00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:08,079
And I'm pretty sure I scared Sloan

549
00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:11,836
because she's a veteran reporter
who's never done anything like what she did.

550
00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:13,320
<i>What's the condition of each reactor?</i>

551
00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:22,196
<i>- All six reactors are in stable condition.</i>
- Great, let's wrap up.

552
00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:24,033
<i>What about the partial meltdown
at reactor three?</i>

553
00:25:24,120 --> 00:25:26,510
- Wrap up for me.

554
00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:28,159
Excuse me, that's not what I asked.

555
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:29,556
<i>I'm asking him specifically</i>

556
00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:31,359
<i>about the core damage at reactor three.</i>

557
00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:34,080
- What's happening?

558
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:40,874
<i>We know of no core damage
at any of the reactors.</i>

559
00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:42,440
That's not what Mr. Tanaka just said.

560
00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:45,554
He said, "Our engineers
can't get close enough to confirm that."

561
00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:47,438
Please translate exactly what I'm asking

562
00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:49,034
and exactly what Mr. Tanaka is answering,

563
00:25:49,120 --> 00:25:50,520
including what I'm saying now,

564
00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:52,956
because I want him to be aware
that he's being misrepresented.

565
00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:56,751
<i>Miss Sabbith, I am translating.
He is not being...</i>

566
00:25:56,840 --> 00:25:59,196
<i>Ask him if he believes
the radiation levels are going to a seven.</i>

567
00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:02,279
Please, please, don't go rogue.

568
00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:10,673
<i>The radiation was categorized at level four</i>

569
00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:13,071
<i>and then recategorized at level five.</i>

570
00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:14,833
<i>And that's where it should remain.</i>

571
00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:18,234
Ma'am, he didn't say that's
where it should remain. You did.

572
00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:20,911
Furthermore, he told me...
You know what? I'm just gonna...

573
00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:23,879
Tanaka-san...

574
00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:29,834
And now we're doing
the broadcast in Japanese.

575
00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:38,675
"We'll be right back after this." Just say that.

576
00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:41,835
Say it in English.

577
00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:45,839
Did she just... Put me back!

578
00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:48,151
<i>Mr. Tanaka, your company
had this incident rated at level four,</i>

579
00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:49,799
<i>then adjusted to level five.</i>

580
00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:52,435
<i>How confident are you
that that'll be the highest level we see?</i>

581
00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:53,840
At least we're back to English.

582
00:26:57,920 --> 00:26:59,912
<i>At this point, we see no reason</i>

583
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:01,753
<i>that level will need future escalation.</i>

584
00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:04,555
Well, that's simply not what Mr. Tanaka
told me on the phone earlier today.

585
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:06,758
- No, no.
<i>- When I spoke with him earlier,</i>

586
00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:09,116
<i>he said there's enough evidence
to raise the level to seven.</i>

587
00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:11,590
- Go back to Japanese.
<i>- And now he's not saying it, so I am.</i>

588
00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:13,637
- Oh, my God!
<i>- So there it is.</i>

589
00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:15,313
<i>The Fukushima nuclear power plant is saying</i>

590
00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:17,835
<i>that the level four radiation leak
that was raised to level five</i>

591
00:27:18,360 --> 00:27:20,238
<i>has a chance of being raised to level seven,</i>

592
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:22,516
<i>which is the difference
between life and gruesome death.</i>

593
00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:25,473
<i>We'll be back after this with Sarah Bernhardt.</i>

594
00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:27,233
Sandra Bernhard, you idiot!

595
00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:29,073
What the hell does it matter?

596
00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:49,279
- Okay...
- 'Sup?

597
00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:52,958
Okay, I know we were on
sketchy ground ethically

598
00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:54,954
and linguistically, but...

599
00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:57,874
Whatever you're gonna say,
save it for another 10 seconds.

600
00:27:58,280 --> 00:27:59,350
What happens in 10 seconds?

601
00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:00,840
Just hang on for another five seconds

602
00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:02,991
and know that we've all been there
at one point or another.

603
00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:04,196
What happens in five seconds?

604
00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:07,512
What in the name of holy fuck
were you thinking about?

605
00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:09,751
First, let me say
that Don was not responsible for that.

606
00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:12,560
Yeah, when you severed
communication with the EP,

607
00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:14,950
you pretty much absolved
him of responsibility.

608
00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:18,158
But that doesn't make the cut
of the top three calamities

609
00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:19,674
- that just occurred.
- Charlie...

610
00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:22,952
I, along with most people
who don't live in Japan,

611
00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:25,874
am not fluent in Japanese, so I have to ask.

612
00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:30,273
Did you just make up statements
for somebody we had live on our air?

613
00:28:30,360 --> 00:28:33,512
- I didn't make them up.
- About a deadly radiation leak?

614
00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:35,000
I didn't make them up.

615
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:37,151
He told me the reactor was going to a seven.

616
00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:39,197
When? Tonight?

617
00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:42,714
I'm asking honestly
because there was a portion

618
00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:45,838
of the broadcast that turned
into a Kurosawa movie.

619
00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:48,310
These things are measured
on a scale of zero to seven.

620
00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:50,756
Five is Three Mile Island,
seven is Chernobyl.

621
00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:53,992
On air, did he say
the reactors were going to seven?

622
00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:55,309
He said it to me in the preinterview.

623
00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:56,914
And then the company stuck
an interpreter next to him,

624
00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:58,559
and I think her job was more than interpreting

625
00:28:58,640 --> 00:28:59,790
because she wasn't accurately translating...

626
00:28:59,880 --> 00:29:02,440
We don't report what you think, Sloan.

627
00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:05,752
The guy said all six reactors are stable.

628
00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:08,159
The Japanese are a deferential people.

629
00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:10,596
It's very hard for them to explain
when they've done something wrong.

630
00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:13,149
I don't give a shit, Madame Butterfly!

631
00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:15,159
And right now the Japanese,

632
00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:17,596
who are reading
an online report of your report,

633
00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:19,433
are fleeing from their fucking homes.

634
00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:22,558
Now tell me what he said tonight on air.

635
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:33,071
He said the reactors were at five.

636
00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:36,397
But you said he said
they would move to seven.

637
00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:38,437
I made it clear he said that
during the preinterview.

638
00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:40,079
First of all, let's not kid ourselves.

639
00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:42,516
There was nothing that was
clear about that interview.

640
00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:44,990
He said it to me, and he said it to
a conference room full of staffers.

641
00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:47,470
- The staffers weren't there.
- The staffers were not there.

642
00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:50,234
I sent them out so we could
speak privately and off...

643
00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:54,673
No, finish that sentence.

644
00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:57,354
Off the record.

645
00:29:57,480 --> 00:30:00,393
Good luck trying to get a source
to talk to you off the record again.

646
00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:03,351
You have no value to me as a reporter now.

647
00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:05,716
- Charlie!
- And I have to suspend you.

648
00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:06,790
- Come on.
- What?

649
00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:10,715
I have to suspend you
while we bring in outside investigators

650
00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:14,032
to comb through every report
you've filed in the last two years

651
00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:15,679
to find out what other shit you made up.

652
00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:18,634
I didn't make anything up.
I would never make anything up.

653
00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:21,440
I know that and you know that
and he knows that,

654
00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:23,318
but why the hell should
anyone else know that?

655
00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:25,074
You're suspended with pay until I figure out...

656
00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:27,550
- They were lying about a public safety issue.
- You're suspended with...

657
00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:29,313
I don't want the goddamn pay!

658
00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:30,993
Don't front off with me, girl!

659
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:34,232
- Don't call me girl, sir.
- Hey!

660
00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:38,431
Everybody calm the fuck down.

661
00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:52,831
Sarah Bernhardt was a turn-of-the-century

662
00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:55,913
stage and film actress from France.

663
00:30:56,280 --> 00:30:59,034
Sandra Bernhard is a...

664
00:30:59,840 --> 00:31:01,752
I don't know what the hell.

665
00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:34,996
There's no way she does that
if I hadn't given her my awesome pep talk.

666
00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:36,674
Are you close with Sloan?

667
00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:38,200
- Are we close?
- Yeah.

668
00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:39,879
- Why?
- Just asking.

669
00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:41,719
You seem very protective.

670
00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:45,237
We didn't used to be. But she's become...
I don't know.

671
00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:48,119
I don't know,
like a little sister to me or something.

672
00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:51,074
Your father was an abusive alcoholic?

673
00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:52,950
What?

674
00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:56,078
Your father, he was an abusive alcoholic?

675
00:31:57,000 --> 00:31:58,036
I didn't say that.

676
00:31:58,680 --> 00:31:59,750
But he was, right?

677
00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:03,435
You got that in the 40 minutes

678
00:32:03,520 --> 00:32:05,512
that I've been sitting
here that seem like a week and a half?

679
00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:07,000
It's in the notes my dad left.

680
00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:08,878
Can I have a prescription now?

681
00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:10,440
- He hit you?
- Come on.

682
00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:11,510
He hit you, right?

683
00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:13,839
How many times did you
see <i>Good Will Hunting?</i>

684
00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:15,958
- He hit you?
- Yes.

685
00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:18,316
- He hit your mother?
- Yes.

686
00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:21,438
You have a brother and two sisters.
He hit them, right?

687
00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:24,274
Look, he didn't hit anybody
once I was old enough to hit him back.

688
00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:26,192
And when was that?

689
00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:31,072
Will, how old were you
when you had to protect

690
00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:33,800
your mother, your brother,

691
00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:36,318
and your two little sisters

692
00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:39,759
from a grown man
who was drunk and violent?

693
00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:46,831
Fifth grade.

694
00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:49,594
I cracked a bottle of Dewar's across his face.

695
00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:55,036
It's in your notes.
Why are you pursuing this line of...

696
00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:57,038
I'm not trying to be an asshole.

697
00:32:57,160 --> 00:32:58,958
I just want a sleeping pill.

698
00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:01,356
I'm gonna give you one,
but I doubt it's gonna work.

699
00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:02,556
Let's give it a try.

700
00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:06,958
You've got another
15 minutes on your session.

701
00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:08,269
I didn't come here for a session.

702
00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:10,875
You could have gotten sleeping pills
from your internist.

703
00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:12,110
Shit, you could have got them online.

704
00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:15,159
I didn't go to my internist
because he asks too many questions.

705
00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:18,119
You didn't go to your internist because
he doesn't ask you the right questions.

706
00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:19,475
I didn't come here for a session.

707
00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:21,832
I think you did.

708
00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:30,918
I'm checking on the opposition research.

709
00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:34,472
Maggie was detained by the police
for attempting to blow up her parents' house.

710
00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:35,755
He's overstating it.

711
00:33:35,840 --> 00:33:37,911
My cousins and I wanted
to shoot guns at soda cans.

712
00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:39,593
Where did you place the soda cans?

713
00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:41,956
- On top of the propane tanks.
- Which were in front of?

714
00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:44,720
The diesel fuel combine.
But I'm an excellent shot.

715
00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:46,678
The Deep South could have used you
when the Russians invaded.

716
00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:49,639
Will! How's the opposition research on Will?

717
00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:52,713
He once needed lenses for driving,
then didn't.

718
00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:54,399
So he probably had LASIK surgery.

719
00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:55,716
He did.

720
00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:58,520
He registered for the New York Marathon,
but didn't finish.

721
00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:01,030
My fault.
I twisted my ankle at the starting line.

722
00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:02,918
He carried me to the first aid tent. What else?

723
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:06,193
- He was hospitalized with tuberculosis.
- Already knew that.

724
00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:09,990
He was credited on a country album
as a guitarist.

725
00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:12,754
He's an accomplished guitarist
who occasionally jams with Leonard Cohen.

726
00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:15,714
He got a C-minus in Sociology of Emotion.

727
00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:18,554
It was a clerical mistake.
He never registered for the class.

728
00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:20,996
- Then a C-minus is pretty good.
- I need something I can use.

729
00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:23,396
Wait, are we trying to protect Will
or give you ammunition?

730
00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:24,909
Thought we could do both.

731
00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:28,477
He contributed $250 to
the failed primary campaign

732
00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:30,517
of a congressional candidate in Nebraska.

733
00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:32,478
- While he was a journalist?
- No.

734
00:34:32,640 --> 00:34:33,960
Nothing I can do with that.

735
00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:36,555
I mean, they... Nothing they can do with that.

736
00:34:36,640 --> 00:34:38,199
The candidate was a Republican.

737
00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:39,396
- So's Will.
- What?

738
00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:40,755
He's a registered Republican.

739
00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:42,832
The four of you weren't able to uncover that?

740
00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:46,754
- We weren't looking.
- He was a speechwriter for Bush 41.

741
00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:47,956
What did you think he was?

742
00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:49,599
I just thought he did that as a public service.

743
00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:51,797
Or to mess with him like in <i>The Sting.</i>

744
00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:54,520
That's nothing like
what happened in <i>The Sting.</i>

745
00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:56,831
Jim got kicked out of
a study abroad semester.

746
00:34:56,920 --> 00:34:59,435
- He went to the Arctic Circle.
- I wanted to see the penguins.

747
00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:01,352
- Those are in the Antarctic.
- Lesson learned.

748
00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:02,760
Why'd you get kicked out?

749
00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:06,151
You're not allowed to fraternize with the Inuit.

750
00:35:06,240 --> 00:35:08,277
He tried to score with an Eskimo.

751
00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:09,953
I was just trying...

752
00:35:11,240 --> 00:35:13,391
I was just trying to get past
the disappointment with the penguins.

753
00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:16,917
- All right, so there's nothing so far.

754
00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:19,192
Fox offered him a ton of money in 2006

755
00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:20,999
to come to LA and get into late-night.

756
00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:22,116
- A talk show?
- Yeah.

757
00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:24,157
He'd have been good at that.

758
00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:26,836
All right, get back to the news.

759
00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:34,272
- Did you say 2006?
- Yeah.

760
00:35:34,400 --> 00:35:36,198
- How far did it get?
- A deal memo.

761
00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:37,470
- You sure?
- Yeah.

762
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:40,199
All right.

763
00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:43,398
You know that this is stupid.

764
00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:45,199
Just go do your jobs.

765
00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:07,320
I've just heard something I can't believe.

766
00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:08,550
Why don't you attack this woman?

767
00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:10,240
She doesn't seem that threatening to me.

768
00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:11,390
She's incredibly threatening.

769
00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:13,477
My life is in constant danger
when she's around.

770
00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:15,514
- I'm Lonny Church.
- MacKenzie McHale.

771
00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:17,114
- Attack!
- Nah.

772
00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:19,954
Look, I'll be here at 9:00
unless you're leaving the building.

773
00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:22,509
In which case, press pound five
on your phone and I'll be here.

774
00:36:22,600 --> 00:36:24,557
- Nice meeting you.
- Nice meeting you.

775
00:36:27,480 --> 00:36:29,119
Fox offered you a late-night talk show.

776
00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:31,954
- Great, when do I start?
- Five years ago.

777
00:36:32,240 --> 00:36:33,799
They offered you the show
when we were together.

778
00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:36,515
It was gonna take you to LA
and it got as far as the deal memo.

779
00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:38,635
What is it you think you've uncovered?

780
00:36:38,720 --> 00:36:41,918
This whole time
you've enjoyed making me feel guilty

781
00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:44,356
for ruining the life
we would have had together

782
00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:48,116
when, in fact,
you never had any intention of marrying me.

783
00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:50,835
No intention of marrying me.

784
00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:51,910
I mean, you never even mentioned it.

785
00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:53,878
You were just gonna go to LA
and leave a note?

786
00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:55,997
Let me tell you something,
the days of you being able

787
00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:58,959
to lord my mistake over me are behind us.

788
00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:02,716
I've lived a life that is good and pure.

789
00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:04,877
You were deceiving me
while I was deceiving you.

790
00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:07,794
You never had any intention of... What's this?

791
00:37:30,080 --> 00:37:33,039
I didn't tell you about the Fox offer
because it was never real.

792
00:37:33,120 --> 00:37:34,713
I knew I was being used as leverage,

793
00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:38,840
and I didn't want to be embarrassed
in front of you when it went away.

794
00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:41,956
I was still trying to impress you.

795
00:37:44,240 --> 00:37:45,515
The ring was meant for me?

796
00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:50,836
But I've lived a life that's good and pure.

797
00:37:51,520 --> 00:37:53,239
Except for...

798
00:37:54,400 --> 00:37:55,959
Cheating on you.

799
00:37:56,040 --> 00:37:57,997
- Could you speak up?
- Cheating on you.

800
00:37:58,080 --> 00:38:00,515
- Except for cheating on you!
- There it is.

801
00:38:01,960 --> 00:38:04,350
Okay. Well, then,

802
00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:06,714
back to work.

803
00:38:07,720 --> 00:38:08,790
Yeah.

804
00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:15,718
Listen, when you do propose to someone,

805
00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:17,120
that's the ring that'll do it.

806
00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:21,874
Yeah.

807
00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:30,158
So as soon as you heard
they were doing opposition research,

808
00:38:30,240 --> 00:38:31,959
you ran over to Tiffany and bought the ring?

809
00:38:32,080 --> 00:38:33,912
That's insane.

810
00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:36,635
I had to send my agent
or it would have shown up in the papers.

811
00:38:36,720 --> 00:38:37,836
- Will.
- I'm gonna return it.

812
00:38:37,960 --> 00:38:39,679
Does that seem normal to you?

813
00:38:39,760 --> 00:38:41,479
The world is made up of two kinds of people.

814
00:38:41,560 --> 00:38:44,473
The ones who think they're normal
and the ones who know there's no such thing.

815
00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:47,792
Great, you took one semester
of Intro to Adult Psych.

816
00:38:47,880 --> 00:38:51,510
But the world is made up of
a lot more than two kinds of people.

817
00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:54,192
And I was speaking
in the psychiatric sense of the word.

818
00:38:54,280 --> 00:38:56,397
- Does going out and buying a ring...
- Which I'm going to return.

819
00:38:56,520 --> 00:39:00,594
...as a bizarre... I don't know what to call it,

820
00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:03,070
- seem normal to you?
- You weren't around for the exposition.

821
00:39:03,160 --> 00:39:04,594
She had an affair with her ex-boyfriend.

822
00:39:04,680 --> 00:39:06,512
For four months while she was with me.

823
00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:09,195
- It's four years later.
- And you know why I don't talk about it?

824
00:39:09,280 --> 00:39:13,194
Because I'm tired of people telling me
it's a "just get over it" situation.

825
00:39:13,280 --> 00:39:16,193
Fuck you.
You don't know what it's like in my head.

826
00:39:26,960 --> 00:39:29,111
Sloan Sabbith.

827
00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:35,035
It's a Japanese news report
from a few hours ago.

828
00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:38,272
We know they're talking about you,
but we don't know what they're saying.

829
00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:47,390
"After releasing incorrect information
to the American journalist Sloan Sabbith..."

830
00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:50,871
That's a picture of Elliot and
he didn't release incorrect information. I did.

831
00:39:50,960 --> 00:39:53,156
And it wasn't incorrect.

832
00:39:55,080 --> 00:39:58,152
"After releasing incorrect information
to the American journalist Sloan Sabbith...

833
00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:07,077
"TEPCO spokesman Daisuke Tanaka
has offered to resign today.

834
00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:13,398
"He said, 'I apologize to my company,
my government, and my country."'

835
00:40:20,600 --> 00:40:22,512
Please, I have to fix this now.

836
00:40:23,320 --> 00:40:25,630
Help me. I need wisdom.

837
00:40:26,080 --> 00:40:28,197
- I have wisdom.
- Kenzie, I love you,

838
00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:29,834
but a Japanese man's honor is at stake,

839
00:40:29,920 --> 00:40:32,480
and sometimes your wisdom leads to...

840
00:40:34,280 --> 00:40:35,634
Like...

841
00:40:39,200 --> 00:40:41,510
- No, I get it.
- Yeah.

842
00:40:42,080 --> 00:40:43,480
Will?

843
00:40:45,280 --> 00:40:48,352
She'd just been suspended
and she's thinking about the other guy's job.

844
00:40:48,440 --> 00:40:50,352
Honor, actually, is what she said.

845
00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:52,631
Meanwhile, she's a punch line on the Internet.

846
00:40:53,040 --> 00:40:55,191
- And he's got students, too.
- Who?

847
00:40:55,320 --> 00:40:57,357
Sloan. She teaches at Columbia twice a week.

848
00:40:57,760 --> 00:41:00,036
You said, "He." "He's got students."

849
00:41:00,520 --> 00:41:02,955
And you feel that's a breakthrough moment?

850
00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:04,952
That my subconscious revealed something?

851
00:41:05,040 --> 00:41:05,996
'Cause I'll be honest.

852
00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:08,470
I'm pretty sure
the reason I said "he" instead of "she"

853
00:41:08,560 --> 00:41:11,632
is that I've been awake
for a really long time now.

854
00:41:11,720 --> 00:41:14,076
But those comments
weren't on your site, right?

855
00:41:14,200 --> 00:41:16,874
No, because nobody's gonna say that
unless they're anonymous.

856
00:41:16,960 --> 00:41:18,519
And if you don't count the death threat,
it worked.

857
00:41:18,600 --> 00:41:21,320
It was bully kryptonite.
No more LollypopLollypop.

858
00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:24,313
- What did SurrendrDorothee mean when...
- Huh?

859
00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:26,558
The screen name of the person...

860
00:41:26,640 --> 00:41:27,790
It's what the...

861
00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:29,639
- Yeah, the screen name of the person...
- Yeah.

862
00:41:29,720 --> 00:41:31,279
On the last night
you showed anonymous posts.

863
00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:33,591
It's what the witch wrote in the sky...

864
00:41:33,720 --> 00:41:35,677
I'm not asking what the screen name means.

865
00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:37,991
I'm asking what the person,
that when he or she said

866
00:41:38,080 --> 00:41:42,120
that your guest that night had
hit the Uncle Tom Daily Double.

867
00:41:45,080 --> 00:41:48,596
The guest he or she was talking about
was a man named Sutton Wall,

868
00:41:49,080 --> 00:41:51,959
<i>who was the deputy chief of staff
to Rick Santorum,</i>

869
00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:53,480
<i>former senator for Pennsylvania</i>

870
00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:56,758
<i>who just announced his intention to
run for President of the United States.</i>

871
00:41:56,840 --> 00:42:00,197
The list of prospective candidates
for the Republican nomination for president

872
00:42:00,280 --> 00:42:02,033
may yet include another name.

873
00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:04,351
Earlier this week,
former Pennsylvania senator

874
00:42:04,440 --> 00:42:06,830
Rick Santorum convened
an exploratory committee...

875
00:42:07,240 --> 00:42:10,119
And Sutton Wall is both black and gay.

876
00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:14,797
The senator is perhaps best known for
his full-throated advocacy of social issues.

877
00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:16,832
<i>Here to discuss how
those positions and others</i>

878
00:42:16,920 --> 00:42:18,877
<i>may shape Mr. Santorum's
bid for the White House</i>

879
00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:21,634
<i>is his former deputy chief of staff Sutton Wall,</i>

880
00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:24,714
an adjunct professor
of American Studies at Temple University,

881
00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:27,998
who will be serving as an advisor
to the campaign throughout this process.

882
00:42:28,160 --> 00:42:30,117
He teaches at Temple?

883
00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:33,312
- Yeah.
- So he has students?

884
00:42:36,520 --> 00:42:38,352
Yes, he has students.

885
00:42:38,440 --> 00:42:41,035
And LollypopLollypop
said you almost made him cry.

886
00:42:41,160 --> 00:42:44,358
That... That was absolutely not my intention.

887
00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:46,711
Well, you're hardwired to hate bullies.

888
00:42:46,800 --> 00:42:51,511
Like the way comic book heroes
are born out of a childhood trauma.

889
00:42:51,640 --> 00:42:54,235
Santorum was the bully in that situation.

890
00:42:54,520 --> 00:42:57,035
Speaking to the <i>New York Times</i> in May 2005,

891
00:42:57,120 --> 00:42:59,237
Senator Santorum said,

892
00:42:59,320 --> 00:43:02,597
"Gay marriage threatens my marriage.
It threatens all marriages.

893
00:43:02,680 --> 00:43:05,400
"It threatens the traditional values
of this country."

894
00:43:05,520 --> 00:43:09,309
Mr. Wall, how does gay marriage
threaten Mr. Santorum's marriage?

895
00:43:09,520 --> 00:43:11,876
<i>The senator believes that marriage is defined</i>

896
00:43:11,960 --> 00:43:13,553
<i>as the union of one man and one woman.</i>

897
00:43:13,640 --> 00:43:15,472
I understand that's what
the former senator believes,

898
00:43:15,560 --> 00:43:16,789
but what he said was

899
00:43:16,880 --> 00:43:19,793
that gay marriage threatens his marriage
and all marriages.

900
00:43:19,880 --> 00:43:21,997
And I'm asking you exactly how it's a threat.

901
00:43:22,560 --> 00:43:25,758
<i>Sanctity of life is the number one issue
with Rick Santorum, and he believes...</i>

902
00:43:25,840 --> 00:43:28,833
Mr. Wall, we'll get to purposely vague words
like sanctity in a moment.

903
00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:31,759
But I'd like you to try to answer the question.

904
00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:34,958
<i>How is Mr. Santorum's marriage threatened</i>

905
00:43:35,040 --> 00:43:37,760
by the gay couple two houses down
also being married?

906
00:43:37,840 --> 00:43:40,480
<i>Will, I was proud to serve
on the senator's staff,</i>

907
00:43:40,560 --> 00:43:43,553
<i>and I'll be proud to serve and support him
should he choose to run for president.</i>

908
00:43:43,680 --> 00:43:45,637
<i>But that doesn't mean
I necessarily agree with him</i>

909
00:43:45,720 --> 00:43:47,712
<i>on every single issue.</i>

910
00:43:47,800 --> 00:43:52,158
<i>Gay marriage is now legal in five states
as well as the District of Columbia.</i>

911
00:43:52,480 --> 00:43:56,633
<i>Has Mr. Santorum's marriage
been suffering as a result?</i>

912
00:43:56,720 --> 00:43:59,315
<i>Has he complained to you
that he and Mrs. Santorum</i>

913
00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:01,198
<i>seem to be fighting more or talking less?</i>

914
00:44:01,720 --> 00:44:04,315
<i>- Of course not.
- Has there been any infidelity</i>

915
00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:07,438
<i>in the last seven years
or an inability to relate to their children</i>

916
00:44:07,520 --> 00:44:09,989
<i>as a result of five states
legalizing same-sex marriage?</i>

917
00:44:10,080 --> 00:44:12,072
<i>This is a preposterous
line of questioning, sir.</i>

918
00:44:12,160 --> 00:44:14,629
I'm afraid it has to be, sir,
because it's a preposterous assertion.

919
00:44:14,720 --> 00:44:16,677
Now, are you able to name one way

920
00:44:16,760 --> 00:44:19,639
in which Mr. Santorum's
marriage to Mrs. Santorum

921
00:44:19,760 --> 00:44:22,958
is threatened by gay couples
also having the right to marry?

922
00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:25,312
<i>I...</i>

923
00:44:28,800 --> 00:44:29,995
<i>I am not able to name a way.</i>

924
00:44:30,080 --> 00:44:31,400
Thank you.

925
00:44:33,600 --> 00:44:35,432
I could have just stopped it there.

926
00:44:35,520 --> 00:44:37,352
Does it bother you that Mr. Santorum thinks

927
00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:39,159
there's something wrong with you
that should be fixed?

928
00:44:39,280 --> 00:44:42,193
<i>Hang on, because I am sick and tired
of these attacks,</i>

929
00:44:42,280 --> 00:44:45,512
<i>these wrongheaded attacks against
a great man and a great public servant.</i>

930
00:44:45,600 --> 00:44:47,751
Reasonable people can disagree
about how great a man

931
00:44:47,840 --> 00:44:50,753
or how great a public servant
Rick Santorum is,

932
00:44:50,840 --> 00:44:52,593
but they can't disagree about
the fact that he thinks

933
00:44:52,680 --> 00:44:55,593
you're a sick deviant
who's threatening the fabric of society.

934
00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:57,876
<i>I have known this man for almost a decade,</i>

935
00:44:57,960 --> 00:45:00,919
<i>and I can tell you that he has treated me
with nothing but respect.</i>

936
00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:03,720
This is Senator Santorum
speaking to Fox News.

937
00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:06,520
- Easy does it, Will.
- No, we're gonna do this thing.

938
00:45:06,640 --> 00:45:07,835
<i>...that this is the equivalent,</i>

939
00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:12,676
<i>that being black and being gay
is the same is simply not true.</i>

940
00:45:12,760 --> 00:45:16,470
<i>There are all sorts of studies out there
that suggestjust the contrary,</i>

941
00:45:16,560 --> 00:45:19,871
<i>and there are people who were gay
and lived a gay lifestyle</i>

942
00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:22,993
<i>and aren't anymore.
I don't know if that's the similar situation.</i>

943
00:45:23,080 --> 00:45:25,390
<i>I don't think that's the case with
anybody that's black.</i>

944
00:45:25,480 --> 00:45:27,551
Mr. Santorum is forgiving you for being black

945
00:45:27,640 --> 00:45:29,359
<i>because there's nothing
you can do about that.</i>

946
00:45:29,440 --> 00:45:30,794
But you don't have to be gay.

947
00:45:30,880 --> 00:45:33,600
<i>I will say it again. Mr. Santorum is a great man</i>

948
00:45:33,680 --> 00:45:35,239
<i>who would make a great president.</i>

949
00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:38,279
<i>He has never treated me with anything
but the utmost respect.</i>

950
00:45:38,360 --> 00:45:40,352
<i>Except for finding you disgusting.</i>

951
00:45:40,440 --> 00:45:42,238
<i>- That is a lie.</i>
- Will, don't...

952
00:45:42,320 --> 00:45:44,835
<i>Has Rick Santorum on
the floor of the US Senate</i>

953
00:45:44,920 --> 00:45:47,640
compared homosexuality
to incest and bestiality?

954
00:45:47,720 --> 00:45:50,155
<i>Those remarks have been taken out of context
over the years...</i>

955
00:45:50,240 --> 00:45:52,675
Feel free to put the remarks
in the proper context.

956
00:45:52,760 --> 00:45:57,198
<i>He makes a clear distinction
between homosexuality and homosexual acts.</i>

957
00:45:57,480 --> 00:45:59,915
So he only finds you disgusting
when you act like a homosexual?

958
00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:02,037
<i>- He doesn't find me disgusting.</i>
- Yes, he does.

959
00:46:02,280 --> 00:46:03,714
<i>And he also thinks you're less than a man.</i>

960
00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:05,075
<i>- No, he certainly does not.</i>
- Come on.

961
00:46:05,160 --> 00:46:06,958
<i>Our Declaration contains the words</i>

962
00:46:07,040 --> 00:46:09,032
<i>"We hold these truths to be self-evident</i>

963
00:46:09,160 --> 00:46:11,277
<i>"that all men are created equal."</i>

964
00:46:11,360 --> 00:46:12,874
<i>In order to arrive at the conclusion</i>

965
00:46:12,960 --> 00:46:16,237
that homosexual love
is something less than heterosexual love,

966
00:46:16,320 --> 00:46:17,674
you have to begin with the premise

967
00:46:17,760 --> 00:46:19,877
that a homosexual is
something less than a man.

968
00:46:19,960 --> 00:46:21,155
That's inescapable.

969
00:46:21,240 --> 00:46:23,709
And so I'm asking you to explain to me

970
00:46:24,160 --> 00:46:27,597
why you would work for a man
who believes that you're inferior.

971
00:46:27,720 --> 00:46:30,394
- That you're damaged. That you're ill.
- Stop hitting him.

972
00:46:30,480 --> 00:46:32,233
Unnatural. A threat to children.

973
00:46:32,320 --> 00:46:33,959
Unfit to serve in the military.

974
00:46:34,040 --> 00:46:36,271
Unfit to be a parent. And unloved by God.

975
00:46:36,560 --> 00:46:38,870
- I'm asking you, sir...
<i>- Stop! Just stop!</i>

976
00:46:39,400 --> 00:46:42,632
<i>I believe in the sanctity of life.</i>

977
00:46:42,720 --> 00:46:44,518
<i>And if that word is too vague for you,
then look it up.</i>

978
00:46:45,160 --> 00:46:47,994
<i>I support the senator
because of all the candidates in the field,</i>

979
00:46:48,080 --> 00:46:52,791
<i>I believe he is the only one whose passion
on the issue of abortion equals my own.</i>

980
00:46:52,880 --> 00:46:56,157
<i>And I believe he has the skills
to make a fantastic president.</i>

981
00:46:56,240 --> 00:46:57,435
I am not talking... That's not...

982
00:46:57,520 --> 00:47:00,592
<i>You will not interrupt me again, sir!</i>

983
00:47:01,720 --> 00:47:03,552
<i>I am more than one thing.</i>

984
00:47:05,080 --> 00:47:07,470
<i>How dare you reduce me
to the color of my skin</i>

985
00:47:07,560 --> 00:47:09,677
<i>or my sexual orientation?</i>

986
00:47:11,240 --> 00:47:14,312
<i>There are people who look just like me,
thousands and thousands</i>

987
00:47:14,400 --> 00:47:17,871
<i>who died for the freedom
to define their own lives for themselves.</i>

988
00:47:17,960 --> 00:47:21,431
<i>How dare you presume to decide
what I should think is important.</i>

989
00:47:22,880 --> 00:47:25,679
<i>Yes, when it comes to
equality for the gay community,</i>

990
00:47:25,760 --> 00:47:27,717
<i>Senator Santorum is wrong.</i>

991
00:47:27,800 --> 00:47:31,271
<i>But I am far more insulted
by your high-handed implication</i>

992
00:47:31,360 --> 00:47:33,272
<i>- that I need your protection.</i>
- Sir, I...

993
00:47:33,360 --> 00:47:36,353
<i>Shut up! I'll let you know when I'm finished.</i>

994
00:47:39,760 --> 00:47:44,039
<i>I came on this program
because Rick Santorum believes</i>

995
00:47:44,120 --> 00:47:48,876
<i>that the right to kill an unborn child
is not inalienable.</i>

996
00:47:48,960 --> 00:47:51,555
<i>And I stand with Rick Santorum.</i>

997
00:47:51,680 --> 00:47:54,275
<i>And I stand with the Catholic Church.</i>

998
00:47:56,640 --> 00:47:59,474
<i>I am not defined by my blackness.</i>

999
00:47:59,560 --> 00:48:02,394
<i>I am not defined by my gayness.</i>

1000
00:48:03,720 --> 00:48:05,996
<i>And if that doesn't fit
your narrow-minded expectation</i>

1001
00:48:06,080 --> 00:48:08,515
<i>of who I'm supposed to be,
I don't give a damn</i>

1002
00:48:08,640 --> 00:48:10,711
<i>because I'm not defined by you either.</i>

1003
00:48:11,600 --> 00:48:14,957
<i>So get this through your head.</i>

1004
00:48:15,560 --> 00:48:20,476
<i>I don't need your help.</i>

1005
00:48:23,480 --> 00:48:24,516
Mr. Wall?

1006
00:48:30,160 --> 00:48:33,312
Does Mr. Santorum think
you're fit to be a teacher?

1007
00:48:40,400 --> 00:48:42,357
<i>No.</i>

1008
00:48:44,520 --> 00:48:46,830
We'll be back after this.

1009
00:48:54,360 --> 00:48:56,431
He has students.

1010
00:48:56,520 --> 00:48:58,671
And parents.

1011
00:48:58,760 --> 00:49:00,991
And friends.

1012
00:49:01,080 --> 00:49:02,480
And colleagues. And strangers.

1013
00:49:02,760 --> 00:49:05,195
I was the bully.

1014
00:49:08,040 --> 00:49:10,839
I was the bully.

1015
00:49:12,200 --> 00:49:13,270
Mm-hmm.

1016
00:49:16,400 --> 00:49:19,598
You've got to give me credit
for uniting the far right, the gay community,

1017
00:49:19,680 --> 00:49:21,831
and blacks in their dislike of me.

1018
00:49:21,920 --> 00:49:23,274
The Internet exploded.

1019
00:49:23,360 --> 00:49:25,272
Everybody thought I'd become unhinged.

1020
00:49:25,360 --> 00:49:26,953
It sort of brought back this thing

1021
00:49:27,040 --> 00:49:28,952
that happened about
a year ago at Northwestern.

1022
00:49:29,040 --> 00:49:31,760
When you yelled at a student.

1023
00:49:33,960 --> 00:49:34,996
I scared her.

1024
00:49:43,000 --> 00:49:45,037
All right.

1025
00:49:52,080 --> 00:49:53,878
All right.

1026
00:49:55,040 --> 00:49:57,350
That's <i>News Night.</i> Thanks for washing us...
Watching us.

1027
00:49:58,080 --> 00:50:00,276
<i>- Let me get out of here.</i>
- End the broadcast.

1028
00:50:00,360 --> 00:50:02,158
- I'm Will McAvoy.
- Attaboy.

1029
00:50:02,240 --> 00:50:05,677
Terry Smith is coming up, mercifully,
with <i>The Capitol Report</i> from Washington.

1030
00:50:05,760 --> 00:50:07,717
- Good night.

1031
00:50:11,920 --> 00:50:14,515
If you're here to make me feel better,
it's not necessary.

1032
00:50:14,600 --> 00:50:16,751
You think I'm here to make you feel better?

1033
00:50:16,840 --> 00:50:18,832
The story is right. In this one case,

1034
00:50:18,920 --> 00:50:20,832
I don't give a damn about on the record,
off the record.

1035
00:50:20,920 --> 00:50:23,276
- And no one in Fukushima does either.
- I do.

1036
00:50:24,200 --> 00:50:25,190
The story is right.

1037
00:50:25,280 --> 00:50:27,670
- His spokesman denied it on the air.
- He said it to me!

1038
00:50:27,760 --> 00:50:30,355
And you got proof of that
I can bounce off our satellite?

1039
00:50:30,440 --> 00:50:31,760
- No!
- Is Maggie into Jim?

1040
00:50:31,880 --> 00:50:34,395
For Christ's sake, we're talking about... What?

1041
00:50:37,600 --> 00:50:39,478
Am I losing Maggie?

1042
00:50:41,000 --> 00:50:42,320
No.

1043
00:50:49,560 --> 00:50:51,119
Are you good at knowing these things?

1044
00:50:53,800 --> 00:50:55,598
No.

1045
00:50:58,560 --> 00:51:01,359
Make sure he's at Dr. Habib's office
at 10:00 tomorrow.

1046
00:51:01,640 --> 00:51:03,518
When are you and me gonna get busy?

1047
00:51:03,600 --> 00:51:05,319
I'm flattered, but you'd crush me.

1048
00:51:05,400 --> 00:51:06,675
That's true. That's happened before.

1049
00:51:06,920 --> 00:51:09,913
Dress up like a tailback
and he won't be able to lay a hand on you.

1050
00:51:10,000 --> 00:51:12,071
Shrimp boat,
if I wasn't being paid to keep you alive...

1051
00:51:12,160 --> 00:51:13,879
- Let's go.
- Hey, girl!

1052
00:51:15,040 --> 00:51:16,872
Do you really have to call her that?

1053
00:51:16,960 --> 00:51:18,189
She's packing up her office.

1054
00:51:18,280 --> 00:51:20,476
She's gonna unpack her office
'cause I figured a way out.

1055
00:51:21,120 --> 00:51:22,110
What?

1056
00:51:22,200 --> 00:51:25,352
The Japanese words
for four and seven sound alike.

1057
00:51:27,560 --> 00:51:30,075
- Hey, girl!
- Yes?

1058
00:51:30,160 --> 00:51:31,992
Come on down.

1059
00:51:41,360 --> 00:51:43,317
I am here.

1060
00:51:43,400 --> 00:51:45,551
What's the Japanese word for four?

1061
00:51:45,840 --> 00:51:46,796
<i>Shi.</i>

1062
00:51:46,880 --> 00:51:49,395
- What's the Japanese word for seven?
<i>- Shichi.</i>

1063
00:51:49,520 --> 00:51:51,000
Those words are easy to mix up.

1064
00:51:51,080 --> 00:51:52,480
- No, they're not.
- Yes, they are.

1065
00:51:52,560 --> 00:51:53,994
Not for someone who's fluent in Japanese.

1066
00:51:54,120 --> 00:51:56,351
- You're not fluent in Japanese.
- Yes, I am.

1067
00:51:56,440 --> 00:51:58,318
No, you're not.
That's how you mixed up the numbers

1068
00:51:58,400 --> 00:52:00,596
when you were talking to
Tanaka in the preinterview.

1069
00:52:00,720 --> 00:52:01,949
No, it's for exactly that reason

1070
00:52:02,040 --> 00:52:04,271
that there are two words for four
and two words for seven.

1071
00:52:04,360 --> 00:52:07,637
<i>Yon</i> and <i>nana.</i>
And it went from a four to a five to a seven.

1072
00:52:07,720 --> 00:52:09,313
That sounds very complicated.

1073
00:52:09,400 --> 00:52:10,800
Not if you're fluent in Japanese.

1074
00:52:10,880 --> 00:52:12,633
You're not anymore.

1075
00:52:12,720 --> 00:52:16,634
You're gonna go on TV tonight
during Elliot's show,

1076
00:52:16,720 --> 00:52:19,599
- which I pray to God Elliot is hosting.
- He is.

1077
00:52:19,720 --> 00:52:22,394
And you're going to apologize
and explain your error.

1078
00:52:22,480 --> 00:52:25,871
In exchange, Daisuke Tanaka is going to say

1079
00:52:25,960 --> 00:52:28,475
that you made it clear
that you were on the record

1080
00:52:28,560 --> 00:52:31,553
and he doesn't have to resign
and you don't have to be suspended.

1081
00:52:31,840 --> 00:52:33,991
We're all going to just lie
and I'm going to look stupid.

1082
00:52:34,160 --> 00:52:36,277
- You bet. One more thing.
- What?

1083
00:52:36,640 --> 00:52:39,633
Fukushima's announcing
the radiation levels are a seven.

1084
00:52:40,240 --> 00:52:41,356
Thank you.

1085
00:52:41,440 --> 00:52:43,238
I don't know what the hell
you're thanking me for.

1086
00:52:43,320 --> 00:52:45,994
Well, it takes a big man
to admit he was wrong.

1087
00:52:46,080 --> 00:52:48,720
That isn't even remotely what I am doing.

1088
00:52:48,800 --> 00:52:52,157
Hang on, she's got to go on the air
and say she made a mistake,

1089
00:52:52,240 --> 00:52:53,435
that her Japanese is poor...

1090
00:52:53,520 --> 00:52:55,716
- Which it certainly is not.
- Just... God.

1091
00:52:55,800 --> 00:52:58,474
She's gonna go on the air
and say she thought it was a seven

1092
00:52:58,560 --> 00:53:00,631
when it's really a four
that then moved up to a five

1093
00:53:00,720 --> 00:53:03,360
and she's really sorry,
but also now it's really a seven?

1094
00:53:03,720 --> 00:53:07,316
It won't be our proudest moment,
but it'll save the guy's job.

1095
00:53:07,840 --> 00:53:09,433
Save his honor.

1096
00:53:09,520 --> 00:53:13,673
Help very slightly
with our increasingly dinged-up reputation,

1097
00:53:13,760 --> 00:53:16,480
and it'll help the girl who we will now go back

1098
00:53:16,560 --> 00:53:19,837
to addressing as Sloan or Miss Sabbith.

1099
00:53:20,120 --> 00:53:21,520
Will.

1100
00:53:25,800 --> 00:53:27,678
You want me to lie?

1101
00:53:28,160 --> 00:53:29,276
On television?

1102
00:53:30,120 --> 00:53:33,909
From a news desk
with the ACN bug in the corner?

1103
00:53:38,280 --> 00:53:39,555
I do.

1104
00:53:41,280 --> 00:53:44,557
And if there's any fallout,
I'll be standing right next to you and in front.

1105
00:53:44,640 --> 00:53:47,758
I'll always be standing right next to you
and in front.

1106
00:53:52,560 --> 00:53:54,597
We fucked up.

1107
00:53:55,560 --> 00:53:57,870
Let's just live with that now.

1108
00:54:13,280 --> 00:54:16,239
<i>We lied on television from the news desk.</i>

1109
00:54:16,320 --> 00:54:17,993
<i>It was a pretty harmless lie, wasn't it?</i>

1110
00:54:18,080 --> 00:54:20,754
You know how many air hours I've spent
railing against lying?

1111
00:54:20,840 --> 00:54:22,752
Calling people out on it?

1112
00:54:22,840 --> 00:54:26,595
We're the news and we're all gonna
know we lied for the rest of our lives.

1113
00:54:27,280 --> 00:54:30,591
All right, so it turns out
you know what you're doing.

1114
00:54:30,680 --> 00:54:32,080
So I'm sorry I've been a jerk.

1115
00:54:32,440 --> 00:54:35,080
Obviously the reason
I can't sleep is the Santorum aide.

1116
00:54:35,160 --> 00:54:37,595
And I haven't talked to anyone about it,
so I was trying...

1117
00:54:37,680 --> 00:54:39,194
- Bacon.
- What?

1118
00:54:39,760 --> 00:54:41,479
The bacon, egg, and cheese sandwiches.

1119
00:54:41,960 --> 00:54:44,998
Bacon has tyramine, which increases
the release of norepinephrine,

1120
00:54:45,080 --> 00:54:47,197
which is a neurostimulant.

1121
00:54:47,280 --> 00:54:48,316
When did you figure that out?

1122
00:54:48,400 --> 00:54:49,993
When you said you made bacon,
egg, and cheese sandwiches.

1123
00:54:50,080 --> 00:54:52,356
- That was like an hour ago!
- Yeah.

1124
00:54:53,040 --> 00:54:56,272
Will, listen,
and I'm going to write you a mild prescription,

1125
00:54:57,200 --> 00:54:58,475
but you should come back.

1126
00:54:58,880 --> 00:55:01,952
If you don't like me, see someone else.

1127
00:55:02,040 --> 00:55:05,078
But see someone.
You've had a lot going on for a long time.

1128
00:55:05,160 --> 00:55:06,674
Very serious stuff. And, by the way,

1129
00:55:06,760 --> 00:55:10,549
you should be at an Al-Anon meeting
at least once a week.

1130
00:55:10,640 --> 00:55:12,711
You have a lot going on now.

1131
00:55:13,960 --> 00:55:15,155
You're being hunted.

1132
00:55:16,000 --> 00:55:17,434
<i>In the press,</i>

1133
00:55:18,560 --> 00:55:20,472
<i>on the Internet,</i>

1134
00:55:20,840 --> 00:55:23,116
<i>very possibly literally.</i>

1135
00:55:24,120 --> 00:55:28,034
This whole file here from four years ago,
every page is about MacKenzie.

1136
00:55:28,440 --> 00:55:32,400
In these notes are a lot of evidence
that you're experiencing acute depression

1137
00:55:32,760 --> 00:55:34,558
and doing a masterful job covering it.

1138
00:55:34,640 --> 00:55:35,960
That's done.

1139
00:55:37,760 --> 00:55:40,229
<i>Buying the ring was not normal.</i>

1140
00:55:41,200 --> 00:55:43,112
<i>I don't know what else to call it.
It wasn't normal.</i>

1141
00:55:47,400 --> 00:55:50,837
<i>It really doesn't take
a team of Viennese specialists</i>

1142
00:55:50,920 --> 00:55:53,151
<i>to see that you have
unresolved issues with MacKenzie.</i>

1143
00:55:53,240 --> 00:55:55,596
<i>No, my feelings are
completely resolved.</i>

1144
00:55:56,120 --> 00:55:58,271
She's a good friend
and my most trusted partner.

1145
00:55:58,360 --> 00:55:59,714
The ring was just a prank.

1146
00:56:06,960 --> 00:56:09,600
<i>I know what you think of all this.</i>

1147
00:56:10,920 --> 00:56:15,073
But I would really urge you
to spend an hour a week

1148
00:56:15,160 --> 00:56:16,719
faking it.

1149
00:56:18,640 --> 00:56:21,439
That's it. Our time's up.
