2
00:01:28,699 --> 00:01:31,818
I'll tell you a secret.
We could be more profitable.
3
00:01:31,869 --> 00:01:33,737
Small places here and there,
we could make more money.
4
00:01:33,739 --> 00:01:36,239
You know why we don't?
We choose not to.
5
00:01:36,290 --> 00:01:37,907
It's a hell of a business plan,
Reese.
6
00:01:37,909 --> 00:01:39,409
Have a seat if you want.
7
00:01:39,411 --> 00:01:41,711
There's coffee
and juice over there.
8
00:01:41,746 --> 00:01:44,748
- How did you find out?
- We didn't find out. We figured it out.
9
00:01:44,750 --> 00:01:45,999
That's an important
distinction.
10
00:01:46,083 --> 00:01:48,218
We could have found out
by you telling us.
11
00:01:48,252 --> 00:01:49,836
But Sloan Sabbith
figured it out
12
00:01:49,887 --> 00:01:51,838
when instead of going down
off a weak earnings report,
13
00:01:51,889 --> 00:01:56,593
our stock traded up because someone
was buying 5% of our shares.
14
00:01:56,595 --> 00:01:58,395
- 6%.
- 6%.
15
00:01:58,429 --> 00:02:02,349
Which, when added to the 45%
that vests when you turn 25,
16
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,234
comes out to a total of what,
Randy?
17
00:02:04,268 --> 00:02:06,169
King Arthur's knights could
have jousted on this table.
18
00:02:06,203 --> 00:02:09,823
- 51%, that's right.
- Please don't give my brother a math quiz.
19
00:02:09,857 --> 00:02:11,207
I wasn't testing his math.
20
00:02:11,242 --> 00:02:13,276
I was testing
his attention span.
21
00:02:13,278 --> 00:02:15,195
- Reese. You're a douche.
- Yeah? Yes, I am.
22
00:02:15,246 --> 00:02:17,280
But I'm a douche on
the side of the angels.
23
00:02:17,331 --> 00:02:20,000
And the reason there are areas,
small places here and there
24
00:02:20,034 --> 00:02:21,868
where we choose not
to be more profitable,
25
00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:24,754
is because we define success a
little different than you do.
26
00:02:24,789 --> 00:02:28,425
For instance,
we have a news division.
27
00:02:32,463 --> 00:02:34,714
- Are you nervous?
- No.
28
00:02:34,765 --> 00:02:36,132
Really?
29
00:02:36,183 --> 00:02:38,184
I'm okay.
30
00:02:38,219 --> 00:02:40,053
- I'd be nervous.
- I'm fine.
31
00:02:40,104 --> 00:02:41,521
- Here she comes.
- Yeah.
32
00:02:41,555 --> 00:02:42,806
- Don't be nervous.
- I'm not.
33
00:02:42,808 --> 00:02:45,058
I would love it if you guys
34
00:02:45,109 --> 00:02:47,277
would stop committing
federal crimes.
35
00:02:47,311 --> 00:02:49,029
Listen, we're a team here.
We're a family.
36
00:02:49,063 --> 00:02:50,647
But just to be clear,
he's the one who did it.
37
00:02:50,698 --> 00:02:52,816
Before we start, Neal,
38
00:02:52,818 --> 00:02:55,902
it's very important that you
don't reveal your source to me.
39
00:02:55,953 --> 00:02:58,705
- Yeah, no, I won't.
- If you were to reveal your source,
40
00:02:58,739 --> 00:03:00,623
and then even in the course
of an informal conversation
41
00:03:00,658 --> 00:03:03,626
told me you were planning on continuing
to commit this very serious felony,
42
00:03:03,661 --> 00:03:06,629
attorney-client privilege
wouldn't protect either one of us.
43
00:03:06,664 --> 00:03:07,764
He's been prepped.
44
00:03:07,798 --> 00:03:09,049
By whom?
45
00:03:09,083 --> 00:03:11,668
By a member of the New York
bar who graduated seventh
46
00:03:11,719 --> 00:03:14,337
in his class from the fourth
best law school in America.
47
00:03:14,388 --> 00:03:16,089
Okay.
48
00:03:16,140 --> 00:03:19,642
Well, as a member of the New York,
California, Illinois, and Florida bars
49
00:03:19,677 --> 00:03:22,462
who graduated second in her class from
the third best law school in the world,
50
00:03:22,496 --> 00:03:25,231
you won't mind if I sweep up
after you a little?
51
00:03:25,266 --> 00:03:29,986
Because this is different than prosecuting
an escort service in Greenpoint.
52
00:03:30,020 --> 00:03:31,688
I put away bad guys, Halliday.
53
00:03:31,739 --> 00:03:33,189
I locked up Mafia dons.
54
00:03:33,191 --> 00:03:36,443
And now when you go to work,
you put on makeup just like me.
55
00:03:36,494 --> 00:03:38,194
Say you want another lawyer.
56
00:03:38,196 --> 00:03:40,997
If it's gonna be like this,
I'd honestly prefer to go to jail.
57
00:03:41,031 --> 00:03:43,666
When they were just your age,
my mother's parents
58
00:03:43,701 --> 00:03:47,287
saw a production of
You Can't Take It With You on Broadway.
59
00:03:47,338 --> 00:03:50,256
They thought it was a shame that
you had to live near New York
60
00:03:50,291 --> 00:03:53,877
or be able to afford to come here on
vacation to see a production that good.
61
00:03:53,928 --> 00:03:56,045
So they went to investors
62
00:03:56,097 --> 00:04:00,049
and they put together $42,350
63
00:04:00,101 --> 00:04:02,552
and mounted a touring company.
64
00:04:02,603 --> 00:04:05,889
National Theatricals
became very successful.
65
00:04:05,940 --> 00:04:09,526
And my mother worked in the office
while she was going to City College.
66
00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:12,395
She discovered a small
string of radio stations
67
00:04:12,446 --> 00:04:14,030
that were going
out of business,
68
00:04:14,064 --> 00:04:17,033
and using National
as collateral,
69
00:04:17,067 --> 00:04:19,319
she got a loan and bought
the company that owned them,
70
00:04:19,353 --> 00:04:21,871
which was named after
a mythical city,
71
00:04:21,906 --> 00:04:24,908
Atlantis Media.
72
00:04:24,959 --> 00:04:27,827
She was 22 years old
at the time.
73
00:04:27,878 --> 00:04:30,213
She met our father
74
00:04:30,247 --> 00:04:32,332
and they got married.
75
00:04:32,383 --> 00:04:36,136
And then she had a son who bore a striking
resemblance to the father's brother.
76
00:04:36,170 --> 00:04:38,505
If we're gonna start
at 212 degrees,
77
00:04:38,556 --> 00:04:40,340
we've got no place to go.
78
00:04:40,391 --> 00:04:43,309
In the divorce, she gave him half the
controlling shares of the company,
79
00:04:43,344 --> 00:04:45,228
or 45%.
80
00:04:45,262 --> 00:04:46,763
With another 45% going to you.
81
00:04:46,814 --> 00:04:49,182
- I own no stock in AWM.
- In your mother's will.
82
00:04:49,233 --> 00:04:51,434
I don't know what's in my mother's will.
I don't like to think about it.
83
00:04:51,485 --> 00:04:53,153
You know exactly what's
in your mother's will.
84
00:04:53,187 --> 00:04:56,022
Is this what this is?
Is this a family feud?
85
00:04:56,073 --> 00:04:58,158
'Cause we're not talking
about Elton John's
86
00:04:58,192 --> 00:05:00,443
birthday party now.
Lives are on the line.
87
00:05:00,445 --> 00:05:03,413
Do me a favor and talk to me
with a little more condescension.
88
00:05:03,447 --> 00:05:05,331
Great day in the morning.
89
00:05:05,366 --> 00:05:08,785
- Randy and Blair are in the house.
- Morning.
90
00:05:08,836 --> 00:05:12,205
Did you know I've known these two
since the minute they were born?
91
00:05:12,256 --> 00:05:15,508
Your father's plane
was grounded in the snow
92
00:05:15,543 --> 00:05:18,094
and he called me
from a pay phone and said,
93
00:05:18,128 --> 00:05:20,797
"Charlie,
get yourself to Columbia Presbyterian.
94
00:05:20,848 --> 00:05:24,601
Monica's in labor and I want to
make sure nobody steals my kids."
95
00:05:24,635 --> 00:05:27,770
I wasn't in the delivery room,
'cause, you know, boundaries.
96
00:05:27,805 --> 00:05:31,808
But we're all family
here is my point.
97
00:05:31,859 --> 00:05:33,893
Randy,
you're an absolute knockout.
98
00:05:33,944 --> 00:05:36,980
And, Blair,
you've grown into a fine young man.
99
00:05:36,982 --> 00:05:38,982
I'm Blair.
He's Randy.
100
00:05:39,033 --> 00:05:41,985
All right, well,
that was bound to happen.
101
00:05:42,036 --> 00:05:44,487
Look,
I don't get involved at the corporate level.
102
00:05:44,489 --> 00:05:48,291
I just came in to say hello.
I'm not even sitting down.
103
00:05:48,325 --> 00:05:50,159
But out of curiosity,
104
00:05:50,161 --> 00:05:52,161
if you were to sell
the company,
105
00:05:52,213 --> 00:05:56,382
what would the new owners'
plans be for ACN?
106
00:05:56,417 --> 00:05:58,134
I really don't know, Charlie.
107
00:05:58,168 --> 00:06:00,420
But from what I understand,
you can make more money
108
00:06:00,471 --> 00:06:03,473
selling the cameras than
transmitting images from them.
109
00:06:03,507 --> 00:06:05,975
So,
I imagine that's what they'll do.
110
00:06:06,844 --> 00:06:09,312
Yeah, I'm gonna sit down.
111
00:06:09,346 --> 00:06:11,814
Let's start at the beginning.
Monday night.
112
00:06:11,849 --> 00:06:14,517
- Go ahead.
- You don't have to tell him to go ahead. I just did.
113
00:06:14,568 --> 00:06:17,020
And I was telling him it was
okay to follow your instruction.
114
00:06:17,022 --> 00:06:19,188
Go ahead.
115
00:06:19,190 --> 00:06:20,940
It was the first night
of the Boston story
116
00:06:20,991 --> 00:06:23,359
and I got a message on the site
asking for my encryption key.
117
00:06:23,410 --> 00:06:26,996
I gave it. Then I was asked for a higher
level of encryption and I gave that.
118
00:06:27,031 --> 00:06:29,832
The source instructed me to
buy an air-gapped computer,
119
00:06:29,867 --> 00:06:31,868
a computer that's never been
hooked up to the Internet.
120
00:06:31,870 --> 00:06:33,703
And he told me where he
had hidden the flash drive.
121
00:06:33,705 --> 00:06:36,155
It was hidden Godfather
style in a restaurant bathroom.
122
00:06:36,190 --> 00:06:39,259
- Godfather style?
- The scene where Michael shoots Barzini and the cop.
123
00:06:39,293 --> 00:06:40,426
- McCluskey.
- Right.
124
00:06:40,461 --> 00:06:42,595
- And it was Sollozzo.
- The cop?
125
00:06:42,630 --> 00:06:45,598
The cop was McCluskey.
It was McCluskey and Sollozzo, not Barzini.
126
00:06:45,633 --> 00:06:47,216
- Maybe we can move past this.
- You got the flash drive...
127
00:06:47,218 --> 00:06:48,851
And loaded it onto
the air-gapped computer.
128
00:06:48,886 --> 00:06:50,403
And what was on the drive?
129
00:06:50,437 --> 00:06:53,890
A little more than 27,000
documents belonging to the DOD.
130
00:06:53,892 --> 00:06:56,559
- About half of them classified.
- Tell her about Kundu.
131
00:06:56,561 --> 00:06:59,729
There's a small African country called
the Republic of Equatorial Kundu.
132
00:06:59,731 --> 00:07:02,732
It's a failed state.
The week before last, there were violent riots
133
00:07:02,734 --> 00:07:06,235
that killed 38 people
including three Americans.
134
00:07:06,287 --> 00:07:08,371
We're the ones
who started the riots.
135
00:07:08,405 --> 00:07:09,739
How?
136
00:07:09,741 --> 00:07:11,991
The Pentagon employs a PR firm
in Virginia called BCD.
137
00:07:12,042 --> 00:07:15,211
They do propaganda work
planting positive stories
138
00:07:15,245 --> 00:07:16,713
about the US in local papers.
139
00:07:16,747 --> 00:07:19,215
But this time,
they planted a story in Kundu
140
00:07:19,249 --> 00:07:22,218
about a rebel leader who was about
to attack another rebel group.
141
00:07:22,252 --> 00:07:24,587
The story was false
and now 38 people are dead.
142
00:07:24,589 --> 00:07:27,557
In order to be able to better
convince Charlie to spend the money
143
00:07:27,591 --> 00:07:30,343
on investigators to go
through the 27,000 documents,
144
00:07:30,394 --> 00:07:33,730
I asked the source to get me a couple
of pieces of persuasive evidence.
145
00:07:33,764 --> 00:07:35,932
- And I taught him how to use the NIPRNet...
- Yeah.
146
00:07:35,983 --> 00:07:37,850
...to move it from
the DOD's computer to mine.
147
00:07:37,901 --> 00:07:40,103
- You were aware these were stolen documents?
- Yes.
148
00:07:40,154 --> 00:07:42,322
- And you asked your source to steal some more?
- Yes.
149
00:07:42,356 --> 00:07:45,441
- You even taught him how to do it?
- Yeah.
150
00:07:45,492 --> 00:07:48,494
Well, here's what you've done.
151
00:07:48,529 --> 00:07:51,280
You've committed espionage.
152
00:07:51,332 --> 00:07:54,951
You violated Title 18,
Section 793.
153
00:07:54,953 --> 00:07:57,537
Aside from the Espionage Act,
you can and will be charged
154
00:07:57,588 --> 00:07:59,956
with violating the Computer
Fraud and Abuse Act
155
00:08:00,007 --> 00:08:01,841
as well as federal statutes
156
00:08:01,875 --> 00:08:05,294
that punish the theft
or retention of stolen...
157
00:08:05,296 --> 00:08:07,213
I mean,
I know these guys get legal training.
158
00:08:07,264 --> 00:08:08,631
How does this happen?
159
00:08:08,682 --> 00:08:10,633
Isn't this the very first thing
they're taught not to do?
160
00:08:10,684 --> 00:08:12,635
- Once a year.
- Like, is there a sign hanging somewhere...
161
00:08:12,637 --> 00:08:14,971
- It's not like they take a semester of criminal law.
- ...like a choking hazard sign?
162
00:08:14,973 --> 00:08:18,057
"Don't ask sources
to steal things for you."
163
00:08:18,108 --> 00:08:22,729
Title 18, 641,
Title 18, 793-E.
164
00:08:22,780 --> 00:08:24,814
18, 1030-A.
165
00:08:24,816 --> 00:08:26,983
And you violated
the USA Patriot Act.
166
00:08:27,034 --> 00:08:29,202
Seems like the US government
has an awful lot of laws
167
00:08:29,236 --> 00:08:30,953
protecting itself
from its citizens.
168
00:08:30,988 --> 00:08:33,206
That's one way of looking at it.
It's a stupid way.
169
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:35,074
Is the DOD aware of this yet?
170
00:08:35,125 --> 00:08:38,628
No, but if we were to run the story,
which we obviously won't,
171
00:08:38,662 --> 00:08:41,831
we'd pick up the phone and find someone
at BCD to talk to on a Saturday.
172
00:08:41,833 --> 00:08:44,417
- Once we did that...
- It would take about 10 seconds for BCD
173
00:08:44,468 --> 00:08:47,837
to alert the Defense Department and the
FBI would show up here in an hour.
174
00:08:47,839 --> 00:08:51,340
And they would take you in for questioning and
not let you go until you revealed your source.
175
00:08:51,392 --> 00:08:54,343
- That's not gonna happen.
- Not gonna happen 'cause we're not gonna run the story.
176
00:08:54,395 --> 00:08:56,512
We are gonna run the story
and I will avail myself
177
00:08:56,563 --> 00:08:59,148
of the protection the First Amendment gives
me when it comes to revealing a source.
178
00:08:59,183 --> 00:09:01,684
Neither the First nor any
other amendment protects you
179
00:09:01,735 --> 00:09:03,770
when you conspire
to commit treason.
180
00:09:03,821 --> 00:09:06,189
Don't run the story and you
don't have to call BCD.
181
00:09:06,191 --> 00:09:08,357
Don't call BCD and nobody
knows you have the documents.
182
00:09:08,409 --> 00:09:10,610
Don't ever make contact
with your source again.
183
00:09:10,661 --> 00:09:12,445
A truth that matters
can't stay hidden
184
00:09:12,496 --> 00:09:14,030
and it's no more
complicated than that.
185
00:09:14,032 --> 00:09:15,915
It's a lot more
complicated than that
186
00:09:15,949 --> 00:09:17,700
and I decide
what goes on the air.
187
00:09:17,702 --> 00:09:21,037
So, in point of fact,
we'll be doing exactly what Rebecca just said,
188
00:09:21,039 --> 00:09:23,840
which is to say nothing.
189
00:09:42,309 --> 00:09:43,559
Look at that.
190
00:09:43,594 --> 00:09:45,862
Is that a good enough score
to get me in the FBI?
191
00:09:45,896 --> 00:09:47,947
It's not a good enough
score to get you in the PTA.
192
00:09:47,981 --> 00:09:50,867
I put two shots
right in the torso.
193
00:09:50,901 --> 00:09:54,987
Unfortunately, the other four hit
anyone standing next to the torso.
194
00:09:55,038 --> 00:09:56,873
Hey.
Thanks.
195
00:09:56,907 --> 00:09:58,574
Thank you.
196
00:10:02,996 --> 00:10:04,881
That one's yours?
197
00:10:04,915 --> 00:10:06,916
It belongs to the Bureau,
but, yeah.
198
00:10:06,918 --> 00:10:10,336
Tell me something.
Why don't they allow people to go in there alone?
199
00:10:10,387 --> 00:10:12,672
They don't want to make it
easier to commit suicide.
200
00:10:13,924 --> 00:10:15,725
So these are the good
people with the guns
201
00:10:15,759 --> 00:10:17,810
who are going to stop the
bad people with the guns?
202
00:10:17,845 --> 00:10:20,062
We're the good people with the guns.
203
00:10:20,097 --> 00:10:22,181
How's the wedding coming along?
204
00:10:22,232 --> 00:10:25,401
Be easier if people stopped
detonating bombs in Boston
205
00:10:25,435 --> 00:10:28,855
and factories stopped
blowing up in Texas.
206
00:10:28,906 --> 00:10:30,990
I missed a fitting last week.
207
00:10:31,024 --> 00:10:32,608
Casualty count keeps rising.
208
00:10:32,610 --> 00:10:34,911
I need to ask you about something.
209
00:10:34,945 --> 00:10:37,864
- I figured.
- It'll be hypothetical.
210
00:10:37,915 --> 00:10:40,867
It needs to be.
They give us a polygraph test every five years
211
00:10:40,918 --> 00:10:42,618
and mine's coming up.
212
00:10:42,620 --> 00:10:45,338
In today's climate,
what happens to a reporter
213
00:10:45,372 --> 00:10:47,924
who's made contact with a
government whistle-blower?
214
00:10:47,958 --> 00:10:50,593
- A leaker.
- A whistle-blower.
215
00:10:50,627 --> 00:10:53,546
A leaker of secrets
who has taken it upon himself
216
00:10:53,597 --> 00:10:55,631
to decide what laws to obey.
217
00:10:55,666 --> 00:10:58,467
A reporter might gain
the favor of the government
218
00:10:58,469 --> 00:11:01,971
by reporting such a leak to us
instead of the general public.
219
00:11:02,022 --> 00:11:04,690
That reporter's organization would
never have another source again.
220
00:11:04,725 --> 00:11:06,309
And one might say
they'd abdicated
221
00:11:06,311 --> 00:11:08,144
their responsibility
to a democracy.
222
00:11:08,146 --> 00:11:09,946
Yeah, well,
might be full of shit, too.
223
00:11:11,398 --> 00:11:14,233
- Look, I...
- Nothing.
224
00:11:14,284 --> 00:11:15,952
The answer is nothing happens.
225
00:11:15,986 --> 00:11:19,121
No reporter's ever been prosecuted
under the Espionage Act.
226
00:11:19,156 --> 00:11:22,325
If they don't reveal their source,
they may be charged with contempt.
227
00:11:22,376 --> 00:11:24,660
And if they go to jail,
it's for an average of 10 days.
228
00:11:24,711 --> 00:11:26,913
At the most,
it's been six months.
229
00:11:26,964 --> 00:11:29,131
You sound disappointed, Molly.
230
00:11:29,166 --> 00:11:31,751
Sources come to us with things
they can't come to you with.
231
00:11:31,802 --> 00:11:33,653
Yeah,
we have sources, too, Mac.
232
00:11:33,687 --> 00:11:35,888
We use them to stop violent
crimes before they happen.
233
00:11:35,923 --> 00:11:39,058
You want to protect your sources,
so do we.
234
00:11:39,092 --> 00:11:40,893
'Cause when there's a leak,
our sources get executed.
235
00:11:43,647 --> 00:11:45,648
Oh...
236
00:11:45,682 --> 00:11:47,850
On most every occasion,
Obama refused to side
237
00:11:47,852 --> 00:11:50,186
with the EPA's more
science-based positions.
238
00:11:50,237 --> 00:11:53,573
I don't know, whether...
Whether it's cleaning up the air
239
00:11:53,607 --> 00:11:55,575
or forcing the national
resources industries
240
00:11:55,609 --> 00:11:58,828
to abide by
existing regulations,
241
00:11:58,862 --> 00:12:02,365
ultimately the EPA
is only as good
242
00:12:02,416 --> 00:12:04,367
as the White House
allows us to be.
243
00:12:04,369 --> 00:12:08,671
Okay,
take the Deepwater Horizon oil spill.
244
00:12:08,705 --> 00:12:11,924
That was the largest oil spill
the US has experienced...
245
00:12:11,959 --> 00:12:14,343
Excuse me.
Is this seat taken?
246
00:12:14,378 --> 00:12:15,628
No.
247
00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:19,181
- Shh. Don't be alarmed, okay?
- Okay.
248
00:12:19,216 --> 00:12:22,134
I need a favor and I'll be able to
explain why in just a few minutes,
249
00:12:22,185 --> 00:12:24,270
but for now you have
to trust a stranger.
250
00:12:24,304 --> 00:12:25,554
What's the favor?
251
00:12:25,606 --> 00:12:27,723
Hold my iPod
and put in the earbuds.
252
00:12:27,774 --> 00:12:28,941
In your ears?
253
00:12:28,976 --> 00:12:31,727
In your ears like
you're listening to it.
254
00:12:31,729 --> 00:12:34,063
- You still have an iPod?
- I like the way the wheel clicks.
255
00:12:34,114 --> 00:12:35,765
But that's not
important right now.
256
00:12:35,799 --> 00:12:37,700
- Will you do it?
- Yeah, sure.
257
00:12:37,734 --> 00:12:39,235
Well,
I can give it to you on the record...
258
00:12:39,286 --> 00:12:42,071
- Shh.
- ...or I can give it to you off the record.
259
00:12:42,122 --> 00:12:44,323
On the record
is gonna make you laugh.
260
00:12:44,374 --> 00:12:45,708
On the record?
261
00:12:45,742 --> 00:12:50,413
The president continues
to believe in a strong EPA
262
00:12:50,415 --> 00:12:53,749
led by an advocate
for smart pro-growth
263
00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:55,918
environmental policies
that will protect...
264
00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:59,255
Okay, now you're laughing
just as I said you would be.
265
00:12:59,306 --> 00:13:01,424
Off the record...
266
00:13:01,475 --> 00:13:03,392
Hey, hang on.
267
00:13:10,567 --> 00:13:12,601
Off the record, even he'd admit
268
00:13:12,653 --> 00:13:15,287
he couldn't get a law
through this Congress
269
00:13:15,322 --> 00:13:17,857
reaffirming the US
as the name of the country.
270
00:13:17,908 --> 00:13:21,277
So why bother wasting
what little capital he has
271
00:13:21,328 --> 00:13:23,329
with the Republicans on the Hill
trying to get an up or down vote
272
00:13:23,363 --> 00:13:27,033
on his pick to run
a toothless agency?
273
00:13:29,586 --> 00:13:31,287
I was gonna get the buffet.
274
00:13:31,338 --> 00:13:34,123
I don't know why, if given a choice,
anyone wouldn't get the buffet.
275
00:13:34,174 --> 00:13:36,258
Under what circumstance
would you order off the menu?
276
00:13:36,293 --> 00:13:38,744
If the menu had a five-pound lobster
and the buffet was soy-themed.
277
00:13:38,779 --> 00:13:41,130
- All-you-can-eat assorted soy.
- Here's what I need you to do.
278
00:13:41,132 --> 00:13:42,348
Why does there need
to be an assignment?
279
00:13:42,382 --> 00:13:44,133
Hey,
are we in this buffet thing together?
280
00:13:44,135 --> 00:13:46,552
Yeah,
we tell the waiter we're getting the buffet.
281
00:13:46,636 --> 00:13:48,688
I did a Q and A in Shape
about my healthy diet.
282
00:13:48,722 --> 00:13:50,973
- You lied.
- In a big way and I'm really hungry.
283
00:13:51,024 --> 00:13:52,808
So I need you to get food for
me and I'll get food for you.
284
00:13:52,810 --> 00:13:56,078
- Got it.
- Crab claws as far as the eye can see.
285
00:13:56,113 --> 00:13:57,813
Mushroom
and Swiss cheese omelet.
286
00:13:57,815 --> 00:14:00,866
And I can't emphasize this enough...
Waffles.
287
00:14:00,901 --> 00:14:03,652
- And what am I getting?
- Fruit salad.
288
00:14:03,654 --> 00:14:06,038
- Have you decided yet?
- We're gonna have the buffet.
289
00:14:06,073 --> 00:14:08,741
I'm only having something light,
but I'm gonna keep him company at the buffet.
290
00:14:08,792 --> 00:14:11,243
I know it seems like a waste paying
for the buffet and not eating it,
291
00:14:11,294 --> 00:14:13,462
- but that's what I'm gonna do.
- Okay.
292
00:14:13,497 --> 00:14:14,747
Help yourselves.
293
00:14:14,798 --> 00:14:17,166
I don't think he bought it.
294
00:14:17,217 --> 00:14:20,386
I think it was a more detailed
explanation than he's used to getting.
295
00:14:23,090 --> 00:14:25,508
Hey, I didn't tell you.
You made me $125 yesterday.
296
00:14:25,559 --> 00:14:28,677
- How'd I do that?
- I bought $2,500 of Chipotle.
297
00:14:28,679 --> 00:14:30,846
Please tell me you're talking
about the hot sauce.
298
00:14:30,848 --> 00:14:33,849
- The stock, the company.
- You bought CMG?
299
00:14:33,900 --> 00:14:35,484
- You told me to.
- No, I didn't.
300
00:14:35,519 --> 00:14:37,737
You said Chipotle's
gonna have a good day.
301
00:14:37,771 --> 00:14:40,740
Because I got an advance copy of the
earnings report and anticipated an uptick.
302
00:14:40,774 --> 00:14:43,075
- Well, you were right.
- I know I was right.
303
00:14:43,110 --> 00:14:45,494
Wait, you went on TV and told
people to buy the stock.
304
00:14:45,529 --> 00:14:47,279
How was I at a greater
advantage than your viewers?
305
00:14:47,330 --> 00:14:50,199
When did you buy?
Before or after we went on the air?
306
00:14:51,418 --> 00:14:52,618
- Before.
- Before.
307
00:14:52,669 --> 00:14:55,538
- Did you buy at 352.88?
- I bought at 344.91.
308
00:14:55,589 --> 00:14:57,039
You bought it
at its opening price,
309
00:14:57,090 --> 00:15:00,042
which is almost $8 a share lower
than it was when I went on the air.
310
00:15:00,093 --> 00:15:01,961
Congratulations,
we're white-collar criminals.
311
00:15:02,012 --> 00:15:03,929
Okay, first let me say
if you're gonna be a criminal,
312
00:15:03,964 --> 00:15:06,048
- that's probably the best kind to be.
- I don't want to be any kind.
313
00:15:06,099 --> 00:15:08,551
We have to go to the office after this for Neal.
Should we talk to Rebecca?
314
00:15:08,602 --> 00:15:11,303
I think we should.
315
00:15:12,522 --> 00:15:15,191
No.
We're still gonna eat first.
316
00:15:15,225 --> 00:15:16,692
Crab claws, right there.
317
00:15:16,726 --> 00:15:17,977
- And, Don.
- Yeah?
318
00:15:18,011 --> 00:15:19,562
You walked right past
the waffles.
319
00:15:19,564 --> 00:15:21,280
I'm sorry.
320
00:15:41,635 --> 00:15:44,670
No way in the wide fucking
world we're doing this story.
321
00:15:46,973 --> 00:15:49,892
Hey.
What are you doing here?
322
00:15:49,926 --> 00:15:52,061
What are you doing here?
323
00:15:52,095 --> 00:15:55,564
Came in to catch up on the week's worth
of news that happened during Boston.
324
00:15:55,599 --> 00:15:57,766
Jenna Bush had a baby.
325
00:15:57,768 --> 00:16:01,070
I wonder how many great-grandfather
presidents we've had.
326
00:16:01,104 --> 00:16:05,024
I fucked up so bad and it's all
gonna come down in the next hour.
327
00:16:05,075 --> 00:16:07,109
What are you talking about?
328
00:16:07,994 --> 00:16:10,196
Hallie, what are...
329
00:16:17,921 --> 00:16:21,457
Last night...
This morning around 2:00 AM,
330
00:16:21,459 --> 00:16:22,958
we were wrapping up
the Boston coverage
331
00:16:23,009 --> 00:16:24,793
and I was heading home
and I saw that ACN
332
00:16:24,845 --> 00:16:27,296
hadn't posted a tweet
in six and a half hours.
333
00:16:27,298 --> 00:16:29,798
Neal usually does that and he
likes to post every 30 minutes,
334
00:16:29,850 --> 00:16:33,352
but I knew where his head was,
so I posted for him when I got home.
335
00:16:33,386 --> 00:16:36,105
That was 2:37 this morning.
336
00:16:36,139 --> 00:16:38,057
I went to sleep
and then woke up
337
00:16:38,108 --> 00:16:40,192
and deleted it
a half hour later.
338
00:16:40,227 --> 00:16:41,644
- 3:04.
- What was the tweet?
339
00:16:41,695 --> 00:16:43,112
- Nobody's picked it up yet.
- What was it?
340
00:16:43,146 --> 00:16:45,397
- I knew it was wrong the second I...
- Hal.
341
00:16:47,150 --> 00:16:49,869
I hit send and thought,
"Well, that's done" and turned the lights off.
342
00:16:49,903 --> 00:16:52,738
Republicans rejoice"...
343
00:16:56,243 --> 00:17:00,212
"Republicans rejoice that there's
finally a national tragedy
344
00:17:00,247 --> 00:17:02,665
that doesn't involve guns."
345
00:17:12,309 --> 00:17:14,393
- It was up for how long?
- 27 minutes.
346
00:17:14,427 --> 00:17:16,512
In the middle of the night
on a night when everyone
347
00:17:16,563 --> 00:17:18,397
was paying attention
to something else.
348
00:17:18,431 --> 00:17:19,982
Is there any chance
it won't be found?
349
00:17:20,016 --> 00:17:22,484
No.
350
00:17:22,519 --> 00:17:24,520
I came in to get fired.
351
00:17:24,522 --> 00:17:27,356
Reese,
where did our stock close yesterday?
352
00:17:27,407 --> 00:17:28,991
66.
353
00:17:29,025 --> 00:17:31,994
And what's Savannah Capital
offering you per share?
354
00:17:32,028 --> 00:17:33,195
81.
355
00:17:33,246 --> 00:17:37,416
45% of the controlling shares
356
00:17:37,450 --> 00:17:40,536
times 66 equals...
357
00:17:40,538 --> 00:17:41,670
Carry the three.
358
00:17:41,705 --> 00:17:44,506
Times 81.
359
00:17:44,541 --> 00:17:47,059
All right.
Right now your stock
360
00:17:47,093 --> 00:17:50,879
is worth $2.3 billion.
361
00:17:50,881 --> 00:17:52,881
Savannah Capital says
it should be worth
362
00:17:52,933 --> 00:17:56,018
$3.1 billion.
363
00:17:56,052 --> 00:17:57,853
Aren't $2.3 billion
364
00:17:57,887 --> 00:18:01,140
and $3.1 billion
the exact same thing?
365
00:18:01,191 --> 00:18:03,943
- What's the difference?
- 800 million.
366
00:18:03,977 --> 00:18:06,729
Yes, good, Randy.
But I think what Charlie is saying is
367
00:18:06,731 --> 00:18:10,983
what can you buy with 3.1 billion
that you can't buy with 2.3 billion?
368
00:18:11,034 --> 00:18:13,953
You seem to think our plan is
to hit the ATM and go shopping.
369
00:18:13,987 --> 00:18:15,904
- What is your plan?
- My immediate plan
370
00:18:15,956 --> 00:18:18,741
is to ask you why the fuck you
think we need to tell you our plan.
371
00:18:18,743 --> 00:18:21,410
We're not seeking
permission for something.
372
00:18:21,461 --> 00:18:23,128
In 10 days, we turn 25,
373
00:18:23,163 --> 00:18:26,298
inherit 45% of the
controlling shares of AWM,
374
00:18:26,333 --> 00:18:28,083
and sell them
to Savannah Capital,
375
00:18:28,134 --> 00:18:30,669
who was able to buy 6%
of the controlling shares
376
00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:33,973
without any of the geniuses
at this company noticing.
377
00:18:34,007 --> 00:18:36,976
And do you know what I find
so perfectly poetic, Reese?
378
00:18:37,010 --> 00:18:39,144
Is that you would have
been looking out for it
379
00:18:39,179 --> 00:18:41,597
if you remembered
when our birthday was.
380
00:18:41,599 --> 00:18:43,182
Or that we were born.
381
00:18:43,233 --> 00:18:45,901
People like you are the reason
people hate people like me.
382
00:18:45,935 --> 00:18:47,987
Guess that's why you didn't
sit with us at the funeral.
383
00:18:48,021 --> 00:18:50,105
Jesus Christ,
my father had just died.
384
00:18:50,156 --> 00:18:52,825
I wasn't paying a lot of attention
to where my fucking seats were.
385
00:18:52,859 --> 00:18:54,109
- Reese.
- Can we not?
386
00:18:54,111 --> 00:18:55,411
I got to tell you something.
387
00:18:55,445 --> 00:18:57,997
'Cause we're talking
about 141,000 people.
388
00:18:58,031 --> 00:18:59,531
Dad thought you
were an asshole.
389
00:18:59,582 --> 00:19:02,918
All right. All right.
390
00:19:02,952 --> 00:19:04,286
All right.
391
00:19:04,288 --> 00:19:07,289
I want you to sit out a couple of rounds,
all right?
392
00:19:07,291 --> 00:19:10,759
- All right?
- Yeah.
393
00:19:22,689 --> 00:19:24,640
It's me now.
394
00:19:24,642 --> 00:19:27,276
As I understand it,
the criteria for running a story
395
00:19:27,310 --> 00:19:29,061
is one,
are we confident it's accurate,
396
00:19:29,112 --> 00:19:30,729
and two,
is it in the public interest.
397
00:19:30,780 --> 00:19:32,281
And this passes those tests.
398
00:19:32,315 --> 00:19:33,816
You were confident
Genoa was accurate.
399
00:19:33,867 --> 00:19:35,884
I have my own personal
third criteria,
400
00:19:35,919 --> 00:19:37,820
which is will it land
any of my guys in jail?
401
00:19:37,871 --> 00:19:39,655
- That's not...
- This passes that test, too.
402
00:19:39,706 --> 00:19:42,541
By the way,
in order to ascertain its accuracy,
403
00:19:42,575 --> 00:19:44,493
we'd have to pick up
the phone and call BCD,
404
00:19:44,544 --> 00:19:46,912
which is the trip wire
that sends in the FBI.
405
00:19:46,963 --> 00:19:50,582
Now hand over the flash drive so I
can crush it with a meat tenderizer.
406
00:19:50,633 --> 00:19:52,551
What's he crushing
with a meat tenderizer?
407
00:19:52,585 --> 00:19:54,336
Truth. Hope.
Journalistic integrity.
408
00:19:54,338 --> 00:19:57,172
Hey, I've got more journalistic
integrity in my whole body
409
00:19:57,223 --> 00:19:59,224
- than you've got in your...
- You've got that turned around.
410
00:19:59,259 --> 00:20:01,810
You've got more journalistic
integrity in your whole body...
411
00:20:01,845 --> 00:20:03,679
- That's still wrong.
- What the fuck am I trying to say?
412
00:20:03,730 --> 00:20:05,814
- That you're a pussy.
- Watch your mouth, Mandela.
413
00:20:05,849 --> 00:20:07,933
I'd be a pussy if I was
afraid of going to jail.
414
00:20:07,984 --> 00:20:09,685
In fact,
that wouldn't even make me a pussy.
415
00:20:09,687 --> 00:20:11,520
Other people have gone to jail
for refusing to give up a source.
416
00:20:11,522 --> 00:20:13,021
I'd consider it
a badge of honor.
417
00:20:13,073 --> 00:20:15,407
Be sure to show your badge to
your roommates when you get there.
418
00:20:15,442 --> 00:20:18,410
Neal, it is not refusing to give up
a source that we're talking about.
419
00:20:18,445 --> 00:20:20,996
That's a contempt charge.
It is espionage.
420
00:20:21,030 --> 00:20:23,749
- No, it's not.
- Along with a Christmas list of other felonies...
421
00:20:23,783 --> 00:20:26,418
- Why?
- I've just come from talking to a friend.
422
00:20:26,453 --> 00:20:29,221
- She's been with the FBI 15 years.
- Unimpeachable source.
423
00:20:29,255 --> 00:20:31,957
This is her area and she says they'd
never charge him with espionage.
424
00:20:32,008 --> 00:20:34,343
This woman does not know
what she's talking about.
425
00:20:34,377 --> 00:20:36,545
Yeah, she does.
No journalist has ever
426
00:20:36,596 --> 00:20:38,714
been charged with espionage.
She says it'll be contempt.
427
00:20:38,765 --> 00:20:41,133
They would charge him with
kidnapping the Lindbergh baby
428
00:20:41,184 --> 00:20:42,768
if they think
it'll get them to the leak.
429
00:20:42,802 --> 00:20:44,720
- 30 days.
- She says more like 10.
430
00:20:44,771 --> 00:20:47,856
10 days. That's one day for
every three and a half people
431
00:20:47,891 --> 00:20:50,859
we killed by knowingly planting a
false story in a foreign newspaper.
432
00:20:50,894 --> 00:20:51,944
You did the division that fast?
433
00:20:51,978 --> 00:20:53,779
Yeah, cliche buster.
I'm good at math.
434
00:20:53,813 --> 00:20:56,031
Please tell me you're not
softening your position on this.
435
00:20:56,065 --> 00:20:58,567
- My position hasn't softened at all.
- Smartest person in the room.
436
00:20:58,569 --> 00:21:01,737
- There's no question we have to do the story.
- She is an idiot savant.
437
00:21:01,788 --> 00:21:03,822
- When did you change your mind?
- I didn't change my mind.
438
00:21:03,873 --> 00:21:06,241
I've known we had to do the story
the second he showed it to us.
439
00:21:06,292 --> 00:21:08,293
Do you remember last night?
It was last night.
440
00:21:08,328 --> 00:21:10,212
- I do remember last night.
- You went on and on
441
00:21:10,246 --> 00:21:13,248
- about how we have to protect Neal because we're family.
- That was you.
442
00:21:13,250 --> 00:21:16,251
You didn't push back.
I interpreted that as agreeing with me.
443
00:21:16,302 --> 00:21:19,638
You should have interpreted that as we just
finished five days of covering Boston,
444
00:21:19,672 --> 00:21:22,891
it was late, I was tired,
and I was sleeping.
445
00:21:22,926 --> 00:21:25,394
How often are you sleeping when
I'm talking to you at night?
446
00:21:25,428 --> 00:21:27,012
I'd really have no way
of knowing that.
447
00:21:27,063 --> 00:21:28,597
The two lawyers
in the room say no.
448
00:21:28,648 --> 00:21:30,265
The two journalists
in the room say yes.
449
00:21:30,316 --> 00:21:32,901
- There are three journalists.
- Did I count that wrong?
450
00:21:32,936 --> 00:21:35,687
If you think being an ass is gonna
make me less inclined to protect you,
451
00:21:35,738 --> 00:21:39,024
think again, mofo.
I can out-ass anyone in the Tri-State Area.
452
00:21:39,075 --> 00:21:40,442
He's telling the truth, Neal.
453
00:21:40,444 --> 00:21:42,611
It feels like you're on my side,
but just barely.
454
00:21:42,613 --> 00:21:45,080
- Jenna!
- You make that poor girl work on a Saturday?
455
00:21:45,114 --> 00:21:46,949
She's a recent journalism
school graduate.
456
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:48,584
I'm just completing
her education.
457
00:21:48,618 --> 00:21:50,335
What she's learning from me
can't be found in books.
458
00:21:50,370 --> 00:21:51,954
- Yes?
- I'd like a Dr Pepper, please.
459
00:21:52,005 --> 00:21:53,172
- Sure.
- Billy.
460
00:21:53,206 --> 00:21:54,590
- What?
- Listen to me.
461
00:21:54,624 --> 00:21:55,958
- I am.
- We're doing this because we have to.
462
00:21:56,009 --> 00:21:58,093
All right, me and you.
You want to go?
463
00:21:58,127 --> 00:22:00,829
- You already know you're gonna lose.
- Take the first swing.
464
00:22:00,864 --> 00:22:03,799
The possibility that reporters are
gonna make bad behavior public
465
00:22:03,850 --> 00:22:06,435
is what stops people
from behaving badly.
466
00:22:06,469 --> 00:22:09,855
The possibility of jail is supposed to
be what makes people stop behaving badly.
467
00:22:09,889 --> 00:22:12,975
Well, it hasn't 'cause they're still doing
it and they're gonna keep doing it.
468
00:22:13,026 --> 00:22:15,644
A PR company killed 38 people.
469
00:22:15,695 --> 00:22:19,815
We do nothing,
and the 39th is on us.
470
00:22:19,866 --> 00:22:21,567
Game over.
Let's make the phone call.
471
00:22:21,618 --> 00:22:23,735
Not so fast.
472
00:22:25,154 --> 00:22:27,956
And it'll just mean everybody
gets what they want,
473
00:22:27,991 --> 00:22:29,875
which is a rudderless EPA.
474
00:22:29,909 --> 00:22:33,328
I can't do what Congress
will never do,
475
00:22:33,330 --> 00:22:35,497
which is regulate
climate pollution.
476
00:22:35,548 --> 00:22:39,501
It's why so many Democrats
think he's jaw-droppingly weak.
477
00:22:39,503 --> 00:22:42,888
Yeah. All right.
Yeah.
478
00:22:51,814 --> 00:22:55,017
- Excuse me, Mr. Westbrook?
- Yeah?
479
00:22:55,019 --> 00:22:56,952
Do we know each other?
480
00:22:56,986 --> 00:22:58,237
You're Richard Westbrook,
481
00:22:58,271 --> 00:23:00,939
Deputy Assistant
Administrator of the EPA?
482
00:23:00,990 --> 00:23:03,442
- I am.
- I heard your end of the call.
483
00:23:03,493 --> 00:23:05,193
- You did?
- Yes.
484
00:23:05,195 --> 00:23:08,864
I have more bad news.
I'm a producer with ACN. Maggie Jordan.
485
00:23:08,866 --> 00:23:11,366
How much of the call
did you hear?
486
00:23:11,417 --> 00:23:14,202
I heard you say that
the president's pick
487
00:23:14,204 --> 00:23:16,004
to run the EPA
will never get a vote,
488
00:23:16,039 --> 00:23:17,923
that the EPA
is a toothless agency...
489
00:23:17,957 --> 00:23:20,375
- Jesus.
- ...and that the president's jaw-droppingly weak.
490
00:23:20,426 --> 00:23:23,378
No, I said Democrats
491
00:23:23,380 --> 00:23:25,881
think the president's
jaw-droppingly weak.
492
00:23:25,932 --> 00:23:29,184
Wait.
That's not better.
493
00:23:29,218 --> 00:23:30,719
I was wondering if you'd
like to comment further.
494
00:23:30,721 --> 00:23:33,689
This car is half empty.
495
00:23:33,723 --> 00:23:35,357
I looked around.
496
00:23:35,391 --> 00:23:38,727
I didn't see anyone near me except
that guy with the headphones.
497
00:23:38,778 --> 00:23:41,446
- I was sitting right here.
- Why didn't I see you?
498
00:23:41,481 --> 00:23:44,149
I may have slid down
in my seat.
499
00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:47,286
- What did you say your name was?
- Maggie Jordan.
500
00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:48,737
Well, that sucks,
Maggie Jordan.
501
00:23:48,788 --> 00:23:50,072
You're on a train, Richard.
502
00:23:50,123 --> 00:23:52,324
You don't have a reasonable
expectation of privacy.
503
00:23:52,375 --> 00:23:54,626
What's more,
you were talking to another reporter.
504
00:23:54,661 --> 00:23:57,245
I was talking to a reporter
I know and trust.
505
00:23:57,297 --> 00:24:00,549
- And I was off the record.
- You were off the record to him, not to me.
506
00:24:00,583 --> 00:24:03,585
- You were hiding like...
- Why not make the call from between the cars?
507
00:24:03,636 --> 00:24:06,254
- It's too loud!
- Why not wait till we get back to New York?
508
00:24:06,256 --> 00:24:08,140
Because this guy's
on deadline now
509
00:24:08,174 --> 00:24:10,425
and I wanted to give him
background on a story
510
00:24:10,476 --> 00:24:12,511
that will hopefully
put pressure on...
511
00:24:12,562 --> 00:24:16,148
Look, I work at the EPA, okay?
512
00:24:16,182 --> 00:24:18,767
We're staffed by seven people
and a high school intern.
513
00:24:18,818 --> 00:24:21,186
We don't care
who's in the White House.
514
00:24:21,237 --> 00:24:23,905
We are pro drinkable water
and breathable air.
515
00:24:23,940 --> 00:24:25,907
We are anti the world
coming to an end.
516
00:24:25,942 --> 00:24:28,827
But you're also public officials
and what you have to say
517
00:24:28,861 --> 00:24:31,947
about how a president's overseeing
your agency is relevant.
518
00:24:31,949 --> 00:24:34,783
- My job...
- Your job? Your job.
519
00:24:34,834 --> 00:24:37,569
If I hear one more
gossip columnist
520
00:24:37,603 --> 00:24:39,338
use democracy as a fig leaf,
521
00:24:39,372 --> 00:24:42,207
I'm gonna eat an IBM Selectric.
522
00:24:43,843 --> 00:24:46,762
- It's an old-fashioned...
- I know what an IBM Selectric is.
523
00:24:46,796 --> 00:24:49,131
And I should tell you you've been
on the record this whole time.
524
00:24:49,133 --> 00:24:50,632
- How?
- You didn't say...
525
00:24:50,683 --> 00:24:52,300
I didn't say I was
off the record.
526
00:24:52,302 --> 00:24:55,220
I didn't call time-out.
I took my foot off the base.
527
00:24:55,271 --> 00:24:58,106
Look, Richard,
there's news happening right in front of me.
528
00:24:58,141 --> 00:24:59,941
- It's my job...
- Don't.
529
00:24:59,976 --> 00:25:03,311
It's my responsibility,
okay, to report it.
530
00:25:03,363 --> 00:25:07,482
Yeah, but you're not interested
in the news part of the news.
531
00:25:07,484 --> 00:25:10,902
I'd be happy to give you an interview
about the news part of the news.
532
00:25:10,953 --> 00:25:13,388
You like the unguarded moments,
533
00:25:13,423 --> 00:25:17,492
private behavior that can never
stand up to public scrutiny.
534
00:25:17,494 --> 00:25:19,828
But you didn't tell the truth
until you were off the record
535
00:25:19,879 --> 00:25:21,713
with the guy on the
other end of the phone.
536
00:25:21,748 --> 00:25:24,299
The unguarded moments
are where the truth is.
537
00:25:24,333 --> 00:25:26,752
I don't care.
I get to be guarded if I want.
538
00:25:26,803 --> 00:25:28,553
And you were slumped
down in a chair.
539
00:25:28,588 --> 00:25:30,088
How honest was that?
540
00:25:35,561 --> 00:25:37,596
Yeah.
541
00:25:37,647 --> 00:25:39,765
You're right.
542
00:25:43,069 --> 00:25:45,854
- What?
- You're right.
543
00:25:45,905 --> 00:25:49,775
- What do you mean?
- That part was wrong.
544
00:25:49,826 --> 00:25:51,443
Is this a trick?
545
00:25:51,494 --> 00:25:52,861
No.
546
00:25:52,912 --> 00:25:55,580
I'm deleting my notes.
I apologize, Richard.
547
00:25:55,615 --> 00:25:58,200
And good luck.
Here's my card
548
00:25:58,251 --> 00:26:00,285
if you ever want
to talk on the record,
549
00:26:00,336 --> 00:26:03,288
which I strongly
encourage you to do.
550
00:26:03,339 --> 00:26:05,457
Enjoy the rest of your trip.
551
00:26:10,763 --> 00:26:13,548
I don't understand
what's happening now.
552
00:26:13,550 --> 00:26:16,635
Crab claw.
Keep it low.
553
00:26:18,771 --> 00:26:20,939
It says here in the ACN
employee's guide,
554
00:26:20,973 --> 00:26:24,526
which has some interesting information
I definitely should have read
555
00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:27,062
before drinking beer with Jim, Neal,
and some college kids in my office,
556
00:26:27,113 --> 00:26:29,698
that we'd only be in trouble if I
was a producer of financial news.
557
00:26:29,732 --> 00:26:32,484
I'm not. I produce the 10:00 hour,
which you occasionally host.
558
00:26:32,535 --> 00:26:35,737
- Keep reading.
- Employees are barred from, blah, blah, blah, blah.
559
00:26:35,788 --> 00:26:38,290
In accordance with the SEC,
blah, blah.
560
00:26:38,324 --> 00:26:40,375
Married, engaged to be married,
561
00:26:40,409 --> 00:26:42,744
cohabitating or in what
could reasonably be considered
562
00:26:42,746 --> 00:26:45,080
a relationship
where the two parties...
563
00:26:45,131 --> 00:26:47,215
The SEC will notice
a pattern in your trading.
564
00:26:47,250 --> 00:26:49,417
That you appear to be
front-running news for ACN.
565
00:26:49,469 --> 00:26:50,969
And they will
connect you to me.
566
00:26:51,003 --> 00:26:53,672
- And even if they don't...
- We're a couple?
567
00:26:54,757 --> 00:26:56,091
Hmm?
568
00:26:56,093 --> 00:26:57,476
You consider us a couple?
569
00:26:57,510 --> 00:26:59,644
I don't understand
that question.
570
00:26:59,679 --> 00:27:02,981
Yeah, you do, 'cause this is exactly
how I act in the same situation.
571
00:27:03,015 --> 00:27:05,100
Suddenly I pretend I'm stupid
and hearing impaired.
572
00:27:05,102 --> 00:27:07,519
- Do you consider us a couple?
- Do you consider us a couple?
573
00:27:07,570 --> 00:27:10,522
- I do that, too, Socrates.
- We are...
574
00:27:10,573 --> 00:27:12,491
- Yep.
- Okay, let me say...
575
00:27:12,525 --> 00:27:14,326
- Go ahead.
- Here's what we are.
576
00:27:14,360 --> 00:27:16,528
- Bring it.
- I love spending time with you.
577
00:27:16,579 --> 00:27:18,163
- Oh! Oh, man.
- Wait.
578
00:27:18,197 --> 00:27:19,831
I can't believe
I'm getting Don Keefer'd.
579
00:27:19,866 --> 00:27:22,918
You're not.
I would never Don Keefer you.
580
00:27:22,952 --> 00:27:25,587
We're a couple. Totally.
Of course we're a couple.
581
00:27:25,621 --> 00:27:28,206
Let me remind you, I was the one who had
a problem with you trading Chipotle.
582
00:27:28,257 --> 00:27:30,075
Why?
Because we're a couple.
583
00:27:30,109 --> 00:27:32,460
You're the one buying up
Chipotle hither and yon as if,
584
00:27:32,462 --> 00:27:35,297
"Duh, look,
I don't produce a financial show."
585
00:27:35,299 --> 00:27:36,798
See what I mean?
586
00:27:36,849 --> 00:27:38,600
Okay.
587
00:27:40,186 --> 00:27:42,220
Got to slide me a waffle, man.
588
00:27:45,358 --> 00:27:48,643
I'll address that aggressive
behavior in just a moment.
589
00:27:48,645 --> 00:27:50,195
He looked up, you see?
590
00:27:50,229 --> 00:27:52,597
He saw that the pitcher
wasn't covering first base,
591
00:27:52,632 --> 00:27:55,534
which is what the pitcher is supposed
to do on a ground ball to first.
592
00:27:55,568 --> 00:27:57,068
They've known that
since Little League.
593
00:27:57,119 --> 00:27:58,987
He looked up,
and you can see it on the replay.
594
00:27:58,989 --> 00:28:01,289
He looks up because he knew the
pitcher wasn't covering the bag
595
00:28:01,324 --> 00:28:03,875
and he needed to gauge his
position relative to the base.
596
00:28:03,910 --> 00:28:07,078
What happens when you take
your eye off the ball?
597
00:28:07,129 --> 00:28:10,582
God, Jim, what in the name of
sweet Christ are you talking about?
598
00:28:10,633 --> 00:28:12,884
- Bill Buckner.
- Is this the best time, babe?
599
00:28:12,919 --> 00:28:15,921
- I thought it might be a welcome distraction.
- It's an unwelcome annoyance.
600
00:28:15,972 --> 00:28:17,923
I knew going in
that was a possibility.
601
00:28:17,974 --> 00:28:20,308
Buckner needs to be exonerated.
602
00:28:20,343 --> 00:28:23,595
You make one mistake and ev...
603
00:28:38,427 --> 00:28:39,995
CNN represents
604
00:28:40,029 --> 00:28:42,581
a small fraction
of Time Warner's revenue.
605
00:28:42,615 --> 00:28:46,334
NBC Nightly News
a small fraction of Comcast.
606
00:28:46,369 --> 00:28:49,337
And ACN an even smaller
fraction of Atlantis.
607
00:28:49,372 --> 00:28:53,258
But they are the face and voice
of their parent corporations.
608
00:28:53,292 --> 00:28:55,010
- So what?
- So what?
609
00:28:55,044 --> 00:28:56,795
Yes.
610
00:28:58,714 --> 00:29:00,048
That's a fair question.
611
00:29:00,050 --> 00:29:01,549
I think you're making
good headway.
612
00:29:01,601 --> 00:29:04,019
- As an experienced negotiator...
- Reese Lansing.
613
00:29:04,053 --> 00:29:05,971
As the president
of a news network,
614
00:29:06,022 --> 00:29:09,107
all I do every day
is fight with him.
615
00:29:09,141 --> 00:29:11,810
All I do every day
is fight with Leona.
616
00:29:11,861 --> 00:29:13,528
And the thing of it is this...
617
00:29:13,562 --> 00:29:16,448
I win almost every one
of those battles.
618
00:29:16,482 --> 00:29:20,201
What network president can say
that about their corporate parent?
619
00:29:20,236 --> 00:29:22,287
I win almost every one
of those battles
620
00:29:22,321 --> 00:29:25,790
and the reason is most
of the time they let me.
621
00:29:25,825 --> 00:29:28,910
Your father absolutely did
not think you were an asshole.
622
00:29:28,912 --> 00:29:32,297
They want ACN
to do the news well.
623
00:29:32,331 --> 00:29:34,416
And we're not always
successful at it,
624
00:29:34,467 --> 00:29:36,835
but that's what we try to do,
and they let me win
625
00:29:36,886 --> 00:29:40,121
because they just want us to play our role.
626
00:29:40,156 --> 00:29:41,840
As a public service.
627
00:29:41,891 --> 00:29:44,175
As a patriotic sacrifice.
628
00:29:44,226 --> 00:29:45,760
As a moral imperative,
629
00:29:45,762 --> 00:29:48,596
they do not require
ACN to make money.
630
00:29:48,648 --> 00:29:51,516
Why?
Because they can afford it.
631
00:29:51,567 --> 00:29:53,435
- Charlie.
- Isn't that something you want to be a part of
632
00:29:53,486 --> 00:29:55,487
and not something
you want to end?
633
00:29:55,521 --> 00:29:58,239
Don't you want to be
handed the baton?
634
00:29:58,274 --> 00:30:01,359
We want to strike out
on our own.
635
00:30:01,410 --> 00:30:04,913
Be entrepreneurs.
Maybe get into Bitcoin.
636
00:30:04,947 --> 00:30:07,248
Shut the fuck up, Randy.
637
00:30:08,117 --> 00:30:10,585
Go deal with it.
638
00:30:10,619 --> 00:30:13,421
This is so fucked up,
I don't even know where to begin.
639
00:30:13,456 --> 00:30:15,206
- Yeah.
- Jesus Christ!
640
00:30:15,257 --> 00:30:16,458
She understands it's fucked up.
641
00:30:16,509 --> 00:30:18,626
The RNC wants a public apology
642
00:30:18,678 --> 00:30:21,296
or we can't book
Republicans on any show.
643
00:30:21,347 --> 00:30:23,932
- An entire political party.
- They deserve a public apology.
644
00:30:23,966 --> 00:30:27,218
It's almost six months to the day
since our last public apology.
645
00:30:27,269 --> 00:30:29,070
There is no question
that your anger is founded.
646
00:30:29,138 --> 00:30:30,805
I wasn't questioning it, Jim.
647
00:30:30,856 --> 00:30:32,974
I'm not on the fence about
whether I should be angry.
648
00:30:33,025 --> 00:30:35,143
I'd like to say the
following in Hallie's defense.
649
00:30:35,194 --> 00:30:37,278
Like everybody,
she was incredibly tired last night...
650
00:30:37,313 --> 00:30:40,315
- That's just lame.
- This wasn't something she would normally do.
651
00:30:40,317 --> 00:30:42,367
She deleted it.
She knew it was wrong.
652
00:30:42,401 --> 00:30:44,652
Are you two together?
653
00:30:44,704 --> 00:30:46,204
We met on the Romney campaign.
654
00:30:46,238 --> 00:30:47,655
But that is not
why she got the job.
655
00:30:47,707 --> 00:30:49,491
She has done great work
for ACN Digital.
656
00:30:49,493 --> 00:30:51,092
Read her last 10 columns,
look at her...
657
00:30:51,127 --> 00:30:53,878
I don't care if she wrote the
collective works of Tolstoy.
658
00:30:53,913 --> 00:30:56,164
She also wrote this.
659
00:30:59,135 --> 00:31:01,052
I'm not gonna make
you fire her.
660
00:31:01,087 --> 00:31:02,504
- Thank you.
- No, I'm sorry.
661
00:31:02,506 --> 00:31:04,923
I meant I'm going to do it.
662
00:31:07,009 --> 00:31:08,393
If your mind is made up...
663
00:31:08,427 --> 00:31:10,895
I don't get to make up
my own mind now.
664
00:31:10,930 --> 00:31:12,847
The RNC is doing it for me.
665
00:31:12,898 --> 00:31:15,567
If your mind is made up,
then it's my job to fire her.
666
00:31:15,601 --> 00:31:17,102
What?
667
00:31:17,153 --> 00:31:19,521
Excuse me. Sorry.
I think this is about me.
668
00:31:19,523 --> 00:31:21,689
Come in.
669
00:31:21,691 --> 00:31:23,992
We haven't really met.
I'm Charlie Skinner.
670
00:31:24,026 --> 00:31:26,945
- I know.
- Republicans are rejoicing?
671
00:31:26,996 --> 00:31:30,415
You know 144 people got blown up,
right?
672
00:31:30,449 --> 00:31:32,867
And that three
of those people are dead.
673
00:31:32,918 --> 00:31:35,120
And that one of them
is eight years fucking old.
674
00:31:35,171 --> 00:31:36,337
Yes, sir.
675
00:31:36,372 --> 00:31:38,423
I'm so curious, I have to ask.
676
00:31:38,457 --> 00:31:40,375
At the time when you typed it,
677
00:31:40,377 --> 00:31:44,295
in that moment,
what were you thinking the value of it was?
678
00:31:44,346 --> 00:31:46,381
Retweets.
679
00:31:50,269 --> 00:31:52,854
I appreciate your honesty.
680
00:31:54,223 --> 00:31:56,357
You should know Jim did
everything he could for you.
681
00:31:56,392 --> 00:31:59,727
We'll say it was a low-level
staffer and they were fired,
682
00:31:59,779 --> 00:32:01,780
but we won't reveal your name.
683
00:32:01,814 --> 00:32:04,866
- Thank you.
- That's all.
684
00:32:12,575 --> 00:32:14,876
- Can I...?
- Yeah.
685
00:32:25,421 --> 00:32:26,888
You're a reporter?
686
00:32:26,922 --> 00:32:28,756
I'm sorry?
687
00:32:28,808 --> 00:32:30,475
You're a reporter?
688
00:32:30,509 --> 00:32:32,677
A news producer.
ACN.
689
00:32:32,728 --> 00:32:35,180
You were in Boston
for the bombing?
690
00:32:35,231 --> 00:32:36,848
I was there for the race.
691
00:32:36,899 --> 00:32:38,766
You're okay?
692
00:32:38,818 --> 00:32:41,019
I finished about a half hour
before the explosion.
693
00:32:41,070 --> 00:32:42,604
Good thing you're fast.
694
00:32:42,655 --> 00:32:46,107
Um, before,
with that guy from the EPA,
695
00:32:46,109 --> 00:32:47,992
you were on solid ground.
696
00:32:48,027 --> 00:32:49,410
In Massachusetts it's illegal
697
00:32:49,445 --> 00:32:51,112
to record anybody
without two-party consent.
698
00:32:51,114 --> 00:32:54,199
But two things. One,
you are protected by the First Amendment.
699
00:32:54,250 --> 00:32:57,168
And two,
you were in Connecticut at the time.
700
00:32:57,203 --> 00:32:58,786
Yeah.
701
00:32:58,838 --> 00:33:01,623
I think I was okay
journalistically,
702
00:33:01,674 --> 00:33:04,125
and I'm pretty sure
I was okay legally.
703
00:33:04,176 --> 00:33:07,328
I'm just not sure
I was airtight morally.
704
00:33:07,363 --> 00:33:08,847
How did you hear us?
705
00:33:08,881 --> 00:33:10,598
I wasn't listening to music.
706
00:33:12,017 --> 00:33:13,518
What do you do?
707
00:33:13,552 --> 00:33:15,803
I teach.
Fordham Law School.
708
00:33:15,855 --> 00:33:19,240
You're pretty young for a law professor.
What do you teach?
709
00:33:19,275 --> 00:33:21,309
- Ethics.
- Get out of town.
710
00:33:21,360 --> 00:33:23,194
I'm trying.
I'm on an express train.
711
00:33:23,229 --> 00:33:25,647
Excuse me.
712
00:33:25,698 --> 00:33:28,650
- Hi.
- Hi. Could I...
713
00:33:28,701 --> 00:33:30,818
speak with you a second?
714
00:33:30,820 --> 00:33:32,871
- Sure.
- Yeah.
715
00:33:38,410 --> 00:33:40,328
I spoke to our counsel,
716
00:33:40,379 --> 00:33:42,997
and she says there's nothing
stopping you from running the story.
717
00:33:42,999 --> 00:33:45,166
I'm not doing anything
with the story.
718
00:33:45,168 --> 00:33:47,335
Our counsel says there's
nothing stopping you.
719
00:33:47,386 --> 00:33:50,588
If you want to speak to me on the record,
I'm happy to listen,
720
00:33:50,639 --> 00:33:53,391
but I'm not taking what I
overheard to my senior producer.
721
00:33:54,927 --> 00:33:59,063
I am willing to trade
you another story
722
00:33:59,098 --> 00:34:03,768
for the promise that you won't use
my candid remarks about the president.
723
00:34:03,819 --> 00:34:07,238
I have no intention
of using your candid remarks
724
00:34:07,273 --> 00:34:09,107
or even your
on-the-record remarks
725
00:34:09,158 --> 00:34:12,110
which were meant
for someone else.
726
00:34:12,995 --> 00:34:15,079
I just don't understand.
727
00:34:17,199 --> 00:34:20,084
I don't know how to make it
any clearer than that.
728
00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:23,004
Good luck.
729
00:34:28,460 --> 00:34:31,045
I think you're
freaking him out.
730
00:34:32,881 --> 00:34:36,100
How's your boss gonna feel
about you passing on a story?
731
00:34:36,135 --> 00:34:38,970
And then another story?
732
00:34:39,021 --> 00:34:40,888
Whatever the second story is,
733
00:34:40,940 --> 00:34:43,975
I'm not going to blackmail
him into giving it to me.
734
00:34:45,394 --> 00:34:47,779
You can save your students
a lot of time.
735
00:34:47,813 --> 00:34:49,981
On the first day of class,
736
00:34:50,032 --> 00:34:53,901
tell them they know the difference
between right and wrong.
737
00:34:53,903 --> 00:34:56,287
Do what's right.
They don't need a lawyer
738
00:34:56,322 --> 00:34:57,789
to tell them
their moral absolutes.
739
00:34:57,823 --> 00:35:01,075
And whenever you hear
someone giving a monologue
740
00:35:01,077 --> 00:35:02,577
defending the ethics
of their position,
741
00:35:02,628 --> 00:35:04,579
you can be pretty sure
they know they were wrong.
742
00:35:04,581 --> 00:35:07,715
Can I point something out to you?
You're giving a monologue.
743
00:35:07,750 --> 00:35:10,051
Everyone does where I work.
744
00:35:13,255 --> 00:35:15,206
You know what Vipassana is?
745
00:35:15,240 --> 00:35:16,724
It's a small Italian motorbike.
746
00:35:16,759 --> 00:35:19,177
- Not a Vespa. Vipassana.
- I know what Vipassana is.
747
00:35:19,228 --> 00:35:21,846
It's a meditation retreat in India
where you don't talk for a week.
748
00:35:21,897 --> 00:35:23,398
But feel free
to tell me anyway.
749
00:35:23,432 --> 00:35:25,350
Maybe two weeks.
Think I'm gonna do it.
750
00:35:25,401 --> 00:35:27,268
You should.
751
00:35:27,270 --> 00:35:28,519
You seem tense.
752
00:35:28,570 --> 00:35:30,605
Mm, you got that backwards,
money honey.
753
00:35:30,639 --> 00:35:33,691
No, I'm only a little tense because of
what's happening at the office right now.
754
00:35:33,726 --> 00:35:35,910
- Okay.
- All right.
755
00:35:35,944 --> 00:35:38,162
Hey,
it's my parents' 40th anniversary
756
00:35:38,197 --> 00:35:41,099
and the week after next there's a party.
Do you want to come?
757
00:35:42,418 --> 00:35:44,652
Absolutely, I do,
but here's the thing.
758
00:35:44,687 --> 00:35:47,422
- You might be on Vipassana?
- Or maybe a Yamaha.
759
00:35:47,456 --> 00:35:49,173
Big laugh from the crowd.
760
00:35:49,208 --> 00:35:51,709
All right, let's just...
Now we're meeting parents?
761
00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:53,177
And it all started
with a stock trade.
762
00:35:53,212 --> 00:35:55,279
You see how things spiral out of control?
They spiral.
763
00:35:55,314 --> 00:35:58,299
Just buy mutual funds.
There's nothing wrong with mutual funds.
764
00:35:58,301 --> 00:36:00,551
I feel like I'm being
tested right now.
765
00:36:01,854 --> 00:36:04,305
That's it? You're leaving?
Wait.
766
00:36:06,308 --> 00:36:08,309
I'm hailing a cab.
767
00:36:09,345 --> 00:36:11,479
All right.
Close one.
768
00:36:11,530 --> 00:36:12,797
Yeah.
769
00:36:12,831 --> 00:36:15,149
Yours is an unusual
position for a reporter.
770
00:36:15,151 --> 00:36:18,486
Who decides what's private and
what's information people should know?
771
00:36:18,537 --> 00:36:21,572
In the airspace right around me,
I do.
772
00:36:25,544 --> 00:36:28,496
- Hi.
- I'm not scamming you, Richard.
773
00:36:28,547 --> 00:36:30,748
I know.
Can I have a word?
774
00:36:30,799 --> 00:36:32,550
- Sure.
- Yeah.
775
00:36:38,674 --> 00:36:41,142
This report won't be
released for a week.
776
00:36:41,176 --> 00:36:43,428
The White House got it today,
but they won't show it
777
00:36:43,479 --> 00:36:45,563
to the president
until at least Monday.
778
00:36:46,815 --> 00:36:49,684
It's yours,
along with an exclusive interview.
779
00:36:49,686 --> 00:36:51,936
What's in it?
780
00:36:53,355 --> 00:36:55,740
The level of carbon dioxide
in the atmosphere
781
00:36:55,774 --> 00:36:58,359
has passed
a long-feared milestone.
782
00:36:58,361 --> 00:37:00,578
The amount of poison gas in
the air hasn't been this high
783
00:37:00,612 --> 00:37:02,447
in three million years,
since before there were humans.
784
00:37:02,498 --> 00:37:05,500
- We get the report?
- You get the report.
785
00:37:05,534 --> 00:37:07,535
Embargoed until Monday.
786
00:37:07,586 --> 00:37:09,537
And an exclusive interview.
787
00:37:09,588 --> 00:37:11,789
- With who?
- Me.
788
00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:13,925
Any chance we can get
the administrator?
789
00:37:13,959 --> 00:37:16,594
There hasn't been
an administrator
790
00:37:16,628 --> 00:37:18,846
of the Environmental
Protection Agency for a while
791
00:37:18,881 --> 00:37:21,382
because Senate Republicans
won't confirm one
792
00:37:21,433 --> 00:37:23,885
and the president doesn't want
to waste political capital.
793
00:37:23,936 --> 00:37:28,106
Though I'm not sure
what he's saving it up for.
794
00:37:28,140 --> 00:37:31,142
That statement
was on the record.
795
00:37:31,176 --> 00:37:33,694
Nice meeting you.
796
00:37:33,729 --> 00:37:37,698
Richard, be careful when you're
talking out loud in public.
797
00:37:37,733 --> 00:37:39,567
I was careful.
798
00:37:39,618 --> 00:37:41,953
Okay, but you just told
a train car full of people
799
00:37:41,987 --> 00:37:44,071
- that the apocalypse is nigh.
- Damn it.
800
00:37:44,123 --> 00:37:45,656
It's all right.
Nobody's listening.
801
00:37:45,707 --> 00:37:47,792
Tell me about it.
802
00:37:49,711 --> 00:37:53,030
It was nice meeting you, Jack.
I've got to get my bag.
803
00:37:53,065 --> 00:37:54,332
Isn't that your bag?
804
00:37:54,383 --> 00:37:56,551
This is a month's rent for me.
805
00:37:56,585 --> 00:37:58,169
It's my executive producer's.
806
00:37:58,220 --> 00:37:59,504
I don't know your name.
807
00:37:59,555 --> 00:38:01,022
Maggie Jordan.
808
00:38:01,056 --> 00:38:02,890
I'd love to call you.
809
00:38:05,594 --> 00:38:08,012
- Here's my card.
- Great.
810
00:38:11,483 --> 00:38:14,769
And, Jack,
I've got a report here from the EPA
811
00:38:14,771 --> 00:38:16,687
that says you probably
shouldn't wait that long.
812
00:38:19,358 --> 00:38:21,609
And the government's
complicity was covert,
813
00:38:21,660 --> 00:38:24,445
robbing the citizens in a democracy
of the information they need
814
00:38:24,447 --> 00:38:26,998
if they're going to have an intelligent
debate about foreign policy.
815
00:38:27,032 --> 00:38:29,834
Covert ops are why you don't hear
much about the Mafia anymore.
816
00:38:29,868 --> 00:38:31,786
Covert ops are why
your parents are alive.
817
00:38:31,837 --> 00:38:35,006
They're why there are fewer
nuclear scientists alive in Iran.
818
00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:36,958
Covert ops are what's
forcing al-Qaeda...
819
00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:39,627
Covert ops were
behind Iran-Contra
820
00:38:39,678 --> 00:38:41,212
and it was the press
who exposed it.
821
00:38:41,263 --> 00:38:43,848
Covert ops got money
and equipment and training
822
00:38:43,882 --> 00:38:46,467
to the mujahedeen after the
Soviets invaded Afghanistan.
823
00:38:46,469 --> 00:38:49,520
The press not knowing about it
is how Communism fell in Europe.
824
00:38:49,555 --> 00:38:51,606
- I can go all day long.
- God knows.
825
00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:53,641
Excuse me.
826
00:38:53,692 --> 00:38:55,226
- Where are you going?
- The men's room.
827
00:38:55,277 --> 00:38:58,446
Neal, leave behind the drive.
828
00:39:01,817 --> 00:39:02,984
Are you serious?
829
00:39:03,035 --> 00:39:05,953
Well,
you're hotheaded right now.
830
00:39:05,988 --> 00:39:08,623
Leave the flash drive
on the table.
831
00:39:16,915 --> 00:39:19,333
It's locked in a filing
cabinet under my desk.
832
00:39:21,670 --> 00:39:23,337
Are you getting my point?
833
00:39:23,388 --> 00:39:26,474
Yeah, you don't want Neal to go to
jail for 10 days and neither do I.
834
00:39:26,508 --> 00:39:28,092
But these are the rules
of cribbage.
835
00:39:28,143 --> 00:39:30,177
I could swallow this key,
you know.
836
00:39:30,229 --> 00:39:32,730
Yeah, 'cause what criminal
mastermind could open
837
00:39:32,764 --> 00:39:36,100
an Office Depot filing
cabinet without a key?
838
00:39:36,151 --> 00:39:40,655
You're thinking of different ways
to murder me right now.
839
00:39:47,363 --> 00:39:48,863
New York Observer.
840
00:39:48,914 --> 00:39:50,197
How did word get out this fast?
841
00:39:50,249 --> 00:39:52,033
Fast is the speed
at which word travels.
842
00:39:52,035 --> 00:39:53,584
It's been blowing up
for an hour.
843
00:39:53,619 --> 00:39:56,037
Yeah,
but I saw Charlie's statement and apology.
844
00:39:56,039 --> 00:39:57,538
He kept his promise.
He didn't name anyone.
845
00:39:57,540 --> 00:39:59,457
I did.
I outed myself on Twitter.
846
00:39:59,508 --> 00:40:01,375
My account, not the network.
847
00:40:01,377 --> 00:40:03,511
"Just left ACN
for the last time.
848
00:40:03,545 --> 00:40:05,179
Great five weeks.
Honest people.
849
00:40:05,213 --> 00:40:07,682
Sensational experience.
One regret.
850
00:40:07,716 --> 00:40:11,052
I tweeted a terrible joke on the network's account.
No one else involved."
851
00:40:11,054 --> 00:40:14,221
Least I could do was make sure no
one thought it was someone else.
852
00:40:14,223 --> 00:40:15,890
You're gonna get
plenty of job offers.
853
00:40:15,892 --> 00:40:18,392
I'm not worried.
I'm embarrassed.
854
00:40:18,443 --> 00:40:21,362
No one who knows you thinks you have
anything to be embarrassed about.
855
00:40:21,396 --> 00:40:24,115
There's a pretty strong consensus
among people who don't know me
856
00:40:24,149 --> 00:40:26,784
that I'm
"a stupid fucking libtard whore
857
00:40:26,818 --> 00:40:29,036
who should have been
dismembered on Boylston Street
858
00:40:29,071 --> 00:40:31,572
after first getting
sodomized by a jihadist."
859
00:40:31,623 --> 00:40:35,076
Pretty mild for the Internet,
but still.
860
00:40:39,248 --> 00:40:41,465
I appreciate...
861
00:40:41,500 --> 00:40:45,469
Charlie said that you did
everything you could to help me.
862
00:40:45,504 --> 00:40:48,422
Yeah.
And he knew we were dating.
863
00:40:48,424 --> 00:40:51,225
So he said he'd do it himself,
which was merciful.
864
00:40:51,259 --> 00:40:53,427
Are you saying you
volunteered to fire me?
865
00:40:53,478 --> 00:40:55,479
I wasn't volunteering.
It was my job.
866
00:40:58,100 --> 00:41:00,101
Daily Beast.
867
00:41:00,152 --> 00:41:02,520
Some of the offers are gonna be
from people who don't like us very much.
868
00:41:02,571 --> 00:41:04,488
Who doesn't like us?
869
00:41:04,523 --> 00:41:07,425
Not you and me. ACN.
For some of the outlets,
870
00:41:07,459 --> 00:41:09,694
being someone with an ax to grind
against us would be an asset.
871
00:41:09,745 --> 00:41:11,779
I don't have an ax to grind.
872
00:41:14,700 --> 00:41:16,701
Do you think that's
the reason I outed myself?
873
00:41:16,752 --> 00:41:18,619
Do I think... No.
874
00:41:18,670 --> 00:41:20,504
I was trying to do the right thing.
You think I put it out there as bait?
875
00:41:20,539 --> 00:41:22,623
I'm saying don't get played.
876
00:41:28,130 --> 00:41:29,797
Gawker.
877
00:41:37,973 --> 00:41:40,775
I needed a minute to adjust.
That's all that happened.
878
00:41:40,809 --> 00:41:43,611
I'd love to go to your parents'
40th anniversary party.
879
00:41:43,645 --> 00:41:46,197
There is no party.
I was testing you.
880
00:41:46,231 --> 00:41:47,932
Are you for real?
881
00:41:47,966 --> 00:41:51,485
You did the exact same thing I did when
Maggie asked me to meet her parents.
882
00:41:53,655 --> 00:41:56,290
You gave me a little test.
883
00:41:56,324 --> 00:41:58,159
You didn't do well.
884
00:41:58,161 --> 00:42:01,045
Is this something you read in Cosmo
while you were at the dentist?
885
00:42:01,079 --> 00:42:02,496
Yes.
886
00:42:02,547 --> 00:42:04,832
I said I'd go to the party
which doesn't exist
887
00:42:04,834 --> 00:42:06,717
because you're a lying
liar who lies a lot.
888
00:42:06,752 --> 00:42:08,586
It said the next thing
you'd do is deflect.
889
00:42:08,637 --> 00:42:11,005
Don't you like having a gal
pal that you can hang out with
890
00:42:11,007 --> 00:42:13,074
where there are extra
benefits like stock tips?
891
00:42:13,108 --> 00:42:15,760
- I can't use the stock tips.
- Then how about the sex?!
892
00:42:25,404 --> 00:42:27,655
- Hey.
- Hey.
893
00:42:27,689 --> 00:42:29,657
- Hey.
- Hi.
894
00:42:38,033 --> 00:42:40,868
- It would take a long time to explain.
- Yeah, yeah. Yeah.
895
00:42:53,715 --> 00:42:55,382
- Yes.
- Yes what?
896
00:42:55,434 --> 00:42:58,686
Yes, I love having a gal pal with
no commitment and tons of sex.
897
00:42:58,720 --> 00:43:00,221
- Great.
- Just not you.
898
00:43:00,272 --> 00:43:03,107
- What's wrong with me?
- Plenty, but I really like you anyway.
899
00:43:03,141 --> 00:43:05,726
I'm not good
at not being alone.
900
00:43:05,777 --> 00:43:08,195
It's what I'm used to.
901
00:43:08,230 --> 00:43:10,948
Let me know if you want
to get good at it.
902
00:43:13,902 --> 00:43:17,404
- The sex is good.
- Thank you.
903
00:43:17,456 --> 00:43:19,073
Invoking Leona Lansing
904
00:43:19,075 --> 00:43:20,875
is gonna get you
nowhere with me.
905
00:43:20,909 --> 00:43:23,711
Our fidelity is to our father's legacy,
not his mother's.
906
00:43:23,745 --> 00:43:26,380
Then I can tell you this is
not what he would have wanted.
907
00:43:26,414 --> 00:43:27,965
- Then fuck him, too, Charlie.
- Hey!
908
00:43:27,999 --> 00:43:29,633
- All right.
- Why didn't our mother get shares?
909
00:43:29,668 --> 00:43:32,753
'Cause she's not the one
that raised $42,350.
910
00:43:32,804 --> 00:43:34,472
She didn't build the company.
She married it.
911
00:43:34,506 --> 00:43:36,307
Yeah,
and like you poured the cement.
912
00:43:36,341 --> 00:43:37,975
As a matter of fact,
with an MBA,
913
00:43:38,009 --> 00:43:39,844
he insisted on starting
in the mail room.
914
00:43:39,895 --> 00:43:43,430
I understand we were born on third base,
but I'm stealing home now.
915
00:43:43,432 --> 00:43:45,983
- So that's about it.
- Shh.
916
00:43:46,017 --> 00:43:49,353
I'm not here.
I don't want to interrupt anything.
917
00:43:49,404 --> 00:43:51,071
Good afternoon, Leona.
918
00:43:51,106 --> 00:43:54,358
I'll tell you what.
Leona is for friends and family.
919
00:43:54,409 --> 00:43:58,078
If you're trying to poach my company,
I'd prefer Mrs. Lansing.
920
00:44:00,115 --> 00:44:03,834
Oh, Blair, you get more
beautiful every time I see you.
921
00:44:03,869 --> 00:44:04,952
How often is that?
922
00:44:05,003 --> 00:44:07,254
As infrequently as possible.
923
00:44:07,289 --> 00:44:10,791
I understand you've been out on
a date with Savannah Capital.
924
00:44:10,842 --> 00:44:12,426
And I let them take turns.
925
00:44:12,460 --> 00:44:15,296
Oh, and, Randy,
you like to watch, right?
926
00:44:15,298 --> 00:44:16,847
What?
927
00:44:16,882 --> 00:44:19,466
You know what happened
last month
928
00:44:19,518 --> 00:44:21,769
without anybody noticing?
This is for real.
929
00:44:21,803 --> 00:44:26,056
Webster's Dictionary expanded the
definition of the word literally
930
00:44:26,091 --> 00:44:28,776
to include the way
it's commonly misused.
931
00:44:28,810 --> 00:44:30,811
So the thing is,
we no longer have a word
932
00:44:30,813 --> 00:44:32,646
in the English language
that means literally.
933
00:44:32,681 --> 00:44:34,648
I mean,
literally doesn't have a synonym.
934
00:44:34,650 --> 00:44:37,501
So we're going to have to find
the Latin word for it and use it.
935
00:44:37,536 --> 00:44:39,119
But, see,
I don't know any Latin.
936
00:44:39,154 --> 00:44:42,122
So when I say that I am
literally gonna set fire
937
00:44:42,157 --> 00:44:45,860
to this building with you in it
before I hand over the keys to it,
938
00:44:45,894 --> 00:44:48,662
you don't know if I'm speaking
figuratively or literally.
939
00:44:48,664 --> 00:44:51,665
Savannah's offering
$81 per share,
940
00:44:51,667 --> 00:44:54,552
so if this is about money,
you'll accept 82 from me, right?
941
00:44:54,586 --> 00:44:56,754
- Mom.
- We're not interested in selling 6%.
942
00:44:56,805 --> 00:44:59,757
I'm not interested
in buying 6%!
943
00:44:59,808 --> 00:45:02,176
I don't want you anywhere
near this company.
944
00:45:02,227 --> 00:45:05,012
I want all of it.
945
00:45:05,046 --> 00:45:08,682
I am offering you one full dollar
per share more than Savannah.
946
00:45:08,733 --> 00:45:11,151
So if this is about the money,
you'll take it.
947
00:45:12,270 --> 00:45:13,821
$2.
948
00:45:15,740 --> 00:45:17,491
That's what I thought.
949
00:45:17,525 --> 00:45:21,362
I'll raise the cash and have an offer sheet
to you before your birthday.
950
00:45:21,413 --> 00:45:22,863
I tend to doubt it, but...
951
00:45:22,865 --> 00:45:25,866
Oh, get the fuck out
of my boardroom, kids.
952
00:45:29,170 --> 00:45:30,871
Hey.
953
00:45:30,922 --> 00:45:32,823
How come we couldn't be friends,
Blair?
954
00:45:32,857 --> 00:45:35,209
It's 'cause I can't stand you,
Mrs. Lansing.
955
00:45:35,260 --> 00:45:37,962
You've got to lose that anger,
honey.
956
00:45:38,013 --> 00:45:39,930
People get the face
they deserve.
957
00:45:39,965 --> 00:45:41,432
See you in 10 days.
958
00:45:43,852 --> 00:45:45,052
Are you out of your mind?
959
00:45:45,103 --> 00:45:48,555
$4 billion for
a $62 billion company?
960
00:45:48,557 --> 00:45:50,824
- It's a steal.
- It's not!
961
00:45:50,859 --> 00:45:54,111
- But even if it were...
- Yeah?
962
00:45:54,145 --> 00:45:57,698
I think he's trying to say
you don't have $4 billion.
963
00:45:57,732 --> 00:45:59,149
How much do I have?
964
00:45:59,200 --> 00:46:00,734
I don't know,
but it's somewhere in the ballpark
965
00:46:00,736 --> 00:46:03,487
of nothing close to $4 billion!
966
00:46:05,373 --> 00:46:08,575
Charlie, did I ever tell you
about the time my parents saw
967
00:46:08,627 --> 00:46:10,794
You Can't Take It With You
on Broadway?
968
00:46:10,829 --> 00:46:12,496
That was $42,000.
969
00:46:12,547 --> 00:46:16,050
No, $42,350.
970
00:46:16,084 --> 00:46:19,303
And it was the last 350
that were the hardest.
971
00:46:19,337 --> 00:46:21,555
Sold my clothes,
dealt a little weed.
972
00:46:21,589 --> 00:46:24,224
- Mom.
- Oh, I'm just kidding. I didn't sell my clothes.
973
00:46:24,259 --> 00:46:27,428
- This is for real.
- You think I don't fucking know that?
974
00:46:29,397 --> 00:46:33,183
I need $4 billion
cash right now.
975
00:46:36,988 --> 00:46:39,440
I don't know who this guy is.
I didn't vote for him.
976
00:46:39,474 --> 00:46:42,192
I don't want him making decisions on
his own about what's best for America.
977
00:46:42,243 --> 00:46:44,611
For all I know, he's one bad day
away from being Ted Kaczynski.
978
00:46:44,663 --> 00:46:47,948
We work with the FBI and the DOD to
determine what needs to be redacted.
979
00:46:47,999 --> 00:46:49,917
They're going to say
everything needs to be redacted.
980
00:46:49,951 --> 00:46:53,087
They know they have to convince me why.
And if I'm not sold...
981
00:46:53,121 --> 00:46:55,456
But just to get that far,
you have to call BCD, right?
982
00:46:55,507 --> 00:46:57,424
- To comment.
- That's it. That's the trip wire.
983
00:46:57,459 --> 00:47:00,844
You call BCD and Neal has to give up
his source or face a contempt charge.
984
00:47:00,879 --> 00:47:03,547
There's no route to the right
thing that doesn't include the possibility...
985
00:47:03,598 --> 00:47:05,799
The certainty
of a contempt charge.
986
00:47:05,801 --> 00:47:08,135
The route to the right thing
is this guy showing his face.
987
00:47:08,137 --> 00:47:10,471
Why is Neal paying the price
for this guy's patriotism?
988
00:47:10,522 --> 00:47:11,772
But we're past that.
989
00:47:11,806 --> 00:47:13,140
And if I could switch places with him,
I would.
990
00:47:13,191 --> 00:47:14,892
And I would tell
you the same thing,
991
00:47:14,943 --> 00:47:17,311
that a contempt charge could be the least...
Too many people...
992
00:47:17,313 --> 00:47:19,480
Look at how many people
are in this room.
993
00:47:19,482 --> 00:47:21,281
They're in this room
'cause they can be trusted.
994
00:47:21,316 --> 00:47:24,702
Too many people already know that a
more serious crime has been committed.
995
00:47:24,736 --> 00:47:26,153
The FBI doesn't know that.
996
00:47:26,204 --> 00:47:27,705
- What if they find out?
- How?
997
00:47:27,739 --> 00:47:29,156
The only other person
who knows is the source,
998
00:47:29,158 --> 00:47:30,290
and he's not showing his face.
999
00:47:30,325 --> 00:47:32,159
- What if he does?
- He won't.
1000
00:47:32,210 --> 00:47:34,161
So you completely trust a guy who
the only thing that we know about him
1001
00:47:34,212 --> 00:47:36,747
is that he stole classified documents
from the Department of Defense?
1002
00:47:36,798 --> 00:47:38,549
We are three exits
past that on the highway.
1003
00:47:38,583 --> 00:47:40,584
I don't know why
this is a discussion.
1004
00:47:40,635 --> 00:47:42,870
We obviously have
to pursue this story
1005
00:47:42,904 --> 00:47:45,639
and we need to start right now.
1006
00:47:45,673 --> 00:47:48,175
Wait here a second.
1007
00:47:48,177 --> 00:47:51,595
Jenna,
I want you to put some menus on my desk.
1008
00:47:51,646 --> 00:47:54,348
Three minutes after they get here,
I want you to come into my office
1009
00:47:54,350 --> 00:47:55,849
and ask for the menus back.
1010
00:47:55,851 --> 00:47:57,434
And that's it.
You got it?
1011
00:47:58,820 --> 00:48:01,355
- After who gets here?
- Trust me.
1012
00:48:13,752 --> 00:48:15,452
In the time that
you've been working here,
1013
00:48:15,503 --> 00:48:17,871
have you ever asked yourself why
we always walk into the studio
1014
00:48:17,922 --> 00:48:21,175
through that door when we could just
walk straight in over that threshold?
1015
00:48:21,209 --> 00:48:23,677
I did ask after I noticed it.
1016
00:48:23,711 --> 00:48:25,295
What'd they say?
1017
00:48:25,346 --> 00:48:27,848
They said it was superstition.
1018
00:48:27,882 --> 00:48:29,266
It's my superstition.
1019
00:48:29,300 --> 00:48:31,301
Never asked
anyone else to do it.
1020
00:48:31,352 --> 00:48:33,437
They just did.
1021
00:48:33,471 --> 00:48:36,607
It's a longer walk.
I kind of feel responsible for that.
1022
00:48:36,641 --> 00:48:40,060
You feel responsible
for a lot of things.
1023
00:48:40,111 --> 00:48:43,313
You already called BCD, right?
1024
00:48:43,364 --> 00:48:45,232
A few hours ago when you
went to the bathroom,
1025
00:48:45,283 --> 00:48:48,235
you were really calling
BCD for comment.
1026
00:48:48,237 --> 00:48:50,204
Yeah.
1027
00:48:50,238 --> 00:48:52,156
You can do the story
or not do the story,
1028
00:48:52,207 --> 00:48:56,743
but now a decision can't be made
that considers my protection.
1029
00:48:56,745 --> 00:48:58,829
I gave them my name.
1030
00:49:01,417 --> 00:49:03,417
For a long time
after you started here,
1031
00:49:03,468 --> 00:49:06,336
I didn't know your name.
1032
00:49:06,387 --> 00:49:08,255
You called me Punjab.
1033
00:49:08,257 --> 00:49:12,092
Yeah, you know, I...
1034
00:49:12,094 --> 00:49:14,178
I sure know it now.
1035
00:49:17,182 --> 00:49:19,183
Thank you.
1036
00:49:19,234 --> 00:49:20,934
Do something for me, would you?
1037
00:49:20,936 --> 00:49:23,737
- Sure.
- Give me the source.
1038
00:49:23,771 --> 00:49:25,355
I need some skin in the game
1039
00:49:25,406 --> 00:49:28,192
and they're gonna have a trickier
time of it with my profile.
1040
00:49:28,243 --> 00:49:30,244
They'll need a day
to figure out what to do
1041
00:49:30,278 --> 00:49:31,662
and negotiate
with me and Rebecca.
1042
00:49:31,696 --> 00:49:33,947
- Yeah, all right.
- One more thing.
1043
00:49:33,998 --> 00:49:36,950
Do you have anyplace you can
get to for a day or two?
1044
00:49:37,001 --> 00:49:38,535
It won't come to that.
1045
00:49:38,586 --> 00:49:41,338
Someplace you can get to
without using a credit card.
1046
00:49:41,372 --> 00:49:43,924
I can't tell if you're kidding.
1047
00:49:43,958 --> 00:49:45,459
Leave your phone
at home by accident.
1048
00:49:45,461 --> 00:49:47,427
Greyhound doesn't need
to know your name.
1049
00:49:47,462 --> 00:49:49,129
You know what I'm saying.
1050
00:49:49,131 --> 00:49:51,265
It's just contempt.
1051
00:49:51,299 --> 00:49:54,101
Why don't you go transcribe
your notes from the call to BCD
1052
00:49:54,135 --> 00:49:56,220
and distribute them
in the conference room?
1053
00:49:59,807 --> 00:50:02,276
Neal Sampat.
1054
00:50:08,533 --> 00:50:11,451
- Hello.
- We're on a break in there.
1055
00:50:11,486 --> 00:50:13,370
Don and I are a couple.
1056
00:50:13,404 --> 00:50:14,955
We've been seeing
each other for a few months.
1057
00:50:14,989 --> 00:50:17,908
You can tell anybody you want
and you can use the word couple.
1058
00:50:19,327 --> 00:50:21,211
- Don, what's going on?
- Yeah, don't worry about it.
1059
00:50:21,246 --> 00:50:22,913
Okay.
1060
00:50:25,884 --> 00:50:28,719
I would love to go to
your parents' made-up party.
1061
00:50:28,753 --> 00:50:30,304
Are you just saying that
because it's made up?
1062
00:50:30,338 --> 00:50:32,806
Because I would love to go on a
made-up hike with your cousins.
1063
00:50:32,840 --> 00:50:36,260
No, I'm saying it because
I'm in love with you.
1064
00:50:38,980 --> 00:50:41,064
I love you, Don.
1065
00:50:41,099 --> 00:50:43,734
You don't have to
say anything back.
1066
00:50:48,089 --> 00:50:50,407
- I...
- Ha, ha, ha!
1067
00:50:50,441 --> 00:50:51,825
Oh, shit!
1068
00:50:51,859 --> 00:50:53,360
You have been tested
and you failed that test.
1069
00:50:53,411 --> 00:50:55,412
I did not do well on that test.
1070
00:50:55,446 --> 00:50:57,698
- You bit down hard.
- I failed that test.
1071
00:50:57,700 --> 00:51:00,534
As long as you know that.
1072
00:51:00,536 --> 00:51:01,919
Are you worried about
getting scooped?
1073
00:51:01,953 --> 00:51:03,203
- No.
- Yes.
1074
00:51:03,205 --> 00:51:05,038
Because now I got to trust
that somebody else
1075
00:51:05,089 --> 00:51:07,341
is going to handle
the story responsibly.
1076
00:51:07,375 --> 00:51:09,293
What if whoever
the source goes to next
1077
00:51:09,344 --> 00:51:12,095
just makes a 27,000-page
document dump?
1078
00:51:12,130 --> 00:51:13,547
Nobody elected you either.
1079
00:51:13,598 --> 00:51:16,300
I agree there's a kink in the system,
but look at me.
1080
00:51:16,351 --> 00:51:19,636
Have you ever seen a more
trustworthy person in your life?
1081
00:51:19,687 --> 00:51:20,887
I was born like this.
1082
00:51:20,889 --> 00:51:23,690
By the way,
how much money do you have?
1083
00:51:23,725 --> 00:51:25,859
In the bank?
1084
00:51:25,893 --> 00:51:28,195
Yeah, in an unrelated matter,
1085
00:51:28,229 --> 00:51:30,731
Leona's gonna need,
like, $4 billion
1086
00:51:30,782 --> 00:51:33,483
or this network's
gonna be liquidated.
1087
00:51:33,534 --> 00:51:35,452
What was that?
1088
00:51:35,486 --> 00:51:37,404
Don't worry about it right now.
1089
00:51:47,749 --> 00:51:50,634
I'm Special Agent Hutchinson
and this is Special Agent Levy.
1090
00:51:50,668 --> 00:51:52,886
We're with the FBI and we
need to question Neal Sampat.
1091
00:51:52,920 --> 00:51:55,255
We also have a search warrant
under seal for your hard drives.
1092
00:51:55,306 --> 00:51:58,308
- Mac.
- I understand you two know each other socially?
1093
00:51:58,343 --> 00:52:00,344
I was telling Agent Hutchinson
1094
00:52:00,395 --> 00:52:02,679
I think we haven't seen
each other since Christmas.
1095
00:52:02,730 --> 00:52:04,598
Yeah, that's right.
It was...
1096
00:52:04,600 --> 00:52:07,768
It wasn't Christmas Eve,
it was the night before.
1097
00:52:07,819 --> 00:52:09,436
I'm Charlie Skinner.
I'm in charge.
1098
00:52:09,438 --> 00:52:11,104
A warrant under seal
means you're prohibited
1099
00:52:11,106 --> 00:52:12,656
from disclosing
that you were served.
1100
00:52:12,690 --> 00:52:14,107
If you disclose
that you were served...
1101
00:52:14,158 --> 00:52:15,993
- Agent Hutchinson, I'm...
- You're Rebecca Halliday.
1102
00:52:16,027 --> 00:52:17,778
You're the attorney
for Mr. Sampat.
1103
00:52:17,780 --> 00:52:19,246
Yeah.
1104
00:52:19,280 --> 00:52:22,249
I represent ACN
in First Amendment matters.
1105
00:52:22,283 --> 00:52:25,619
You should answer your phone.
1106
00:52:25,670 --> 00:52:28,005
It's going to be
the attorney general.
1107
00:52:30,291 --> 00:52:31,925
Rebecca Halliday.
1108
00:52:31,959 --> 00:52:33,510
Which of you is Neal Sampat?
1109
00:52:33,544 --> 00:52:34,961
Our lawyer has
just stepped away.
1110
00:52:35,013 --> 00:52:36,963
I have a warrant,
Mr. Skinner.
1111
00:52:36,965 --> 00:52:40,350
- Your lawyer knows...
- I'm Spartacus, sir. Neal's not in the room.
1112
00:52:40,385 --> 00:52:42,786
Why don't we go in my
office for a minute?
1113
00:52:42,820 --> 00:52:44,971
I want to talk to them alone.
1114
00:52:44,973 --> 00:52:47,107
Prepare the search,
but don't start.
1115
00:52:47,141 --> 00:52:49,860
You know how many hard
drives we have in this place?
1116
00:53:02,824 --> 00:53:04,541
Keep your voices very low.
1117
00:53:04,575 --> 00:53:06,326
You didn't tell me it was this.
1118
00:53:06,328 --> 00:53:09,129
I don't know what this is, Molly,
and I told you as little as possible.
1119
00:53:09,163 --> 00:53:11,965
I have to say, raiding a newsroom has
got to be damn near unprecedented.
1120
00:53:11,999 --> 00:53:14,551
We need to find this guy.
This is a bad guy.
1121
00:53:14,585 --> 00:53:15,886
We can't take
your word for that.
1122
00:53:15,920 --> 00:53:17,971
And as you well know,
bad guys are good sources.
1123
00:53:18,005 --> 00:53:20,173
We want to work with you
on this story and we want...
1124
00:53:20,224 --> 00:53:22,676
We want to work with you, too,
but we're going to question Neal Sampat.
1125
00:53:22,678 --> 00:53:24,678
The attorney general is on the
phone telling your lawyer
1126
00:53:24,729 --> 00:53:26,596
we're gonna hold him till
he gives up his source.
1127
00:53:26,647 --> 00:53:28,432
And I'll tell you what else.
1128
00:53:28,483 --> 00:53:31,151
There are three levels of Internet
systems the government works on.
1129
00:53:31,185 --> 00:53:32,736
This guy was working on JWICS
1130
00:53:32,770 --> 00:53:34,488
and we don't believe
he has the ability
1131
00:53:34,522 --> 00:53:36,273
to transfer content
to the protocol router.
1132
00:53:36,324 --> 00:53:38,358
So if we can prove
your guy helped him do it,
1133
00:53:38,360 --> 00:53:39,943
he's getting charged
with a full boat.
1134
00:53:39,994 --> 00:53:42,362
He's going to Leavenworth.
1135
00:53:42,413 --> 00:53:45,782
So if you want to work with us,
let's start.
1136
00:53:46,918 --> 00:53:48,835
- Excuse me.
- Yeah?
1137
00:53:48,870 --> 00:53:50,704
- I just need your menu.
- Sorry.
1138
00:53:50,755 --> 00:53:53,423
We're working
through dinner tonight.
1139
00:53:53,458 --> 00:53:55,709
Are we allowed to buy
your guys dinner?
1140
00:53:55,760 --> 00:53:57,544
No.
1141
00:53:57,546 --> 00:53:59,179
Thanks.
1142
00:54:00,681 --> 00:54:03,717
Molly,
I know the name of the source, too.
1143
00:54:04,685 --> 00:54:06,186
- You do?
- Yeah.
1144
00:54:06,220 --> 00:54:08,472
- Who else?
- That's it.
1145
00:54:10,108 --> 00:54:12,392
We need to start searching
your hard drives now.
1146
00:54:12,443 --> 00:54:15,028
We won't talk anymore till
your lawyer's in the room.
1147
00:54:26,290 --> 00:54:28,742
Excuse me.
Excuse me.
1148
00:54:30,711 --> 00:54:32,579
- What's going on?
- Welcome back.
1149
00:54:32,581 --> 00:54:34,664
Sloan, what's going on?
1150
00:54:34,715 --> 00:54:37,634
It's about Neal's story...
1151
00:54:39,003 --> 00:54:40,921
Go ahead.
1152
00:54:40,923 --> 00:54:43,974
Please step away
from the desks.
1153
00:54:44,008 --> 00:54:46,426
Could someone please tell me
where Neal Sampat works?
1154
00:54:50,264 --> 00:54:52,265
He works over there.
