1. MAN People are
gonna be disappointed that
Copy !req
2. the arguments will be technical
and constitutional,
Copy !req
3. and they won't be about
dropping his drawers
Copy !req
4. and exposing himself. I mean,
Copy !req
5. they really won't be anything
like that. Uh, but...
Copy !req
6. Hi, you've reached the home of

Copy !req
25. Ah. Great.
Copy !req
26. We're set to brace Lewinsky
today
Copy !req
27. at the Ritz-Carlton
in Pentagon City.
Copy !req
28. - Emmick's gonna take point.
- What?
Copy !req
29. - Why not you?
- Well, apparently,
the consensus in the office is
Copy !req
30. that I'm too frightening.
Copy !req
31. So I've been told
to stay in the van.
Copy !req
32. What is our timeline?
Copy !req
33. Well, Isikoff at Newsweek
has the whole story,
Copy !req
34. and they go to print
in 48 hours.
Copy !req
35. Mm, President Clinton
goes under oath
Copy !req
36. first thing in the morning,
Copy !req
37. so we need her to make
these monitored calls
Copy !req

Copy !req
45. Prom Night?
Copy !req
46. That's what we're calling it.
Copy !req
47. Operation Prom Night.
Copy !req
48. Half hour with a girl
in a hotel room.
Copy !req
49. Hello?
Copy !req
50. Sorry. Hi, I'm here.
Copy !req
51. Where on God's green earth?
Copy !req
52. I was working out. Jesus, Linda.
Copy !req
53. Oh, your discipline.
Copy !req
54. You make me feel like a slob.
Copy !req
55. Listen, can you do lunch
in an hour?
Copy !req
56. I'm in the middle of packing.
Copy !req
57. Monica...
Copy !req
58. I have good news.
Copy !req
59. I might've found a solution
for our problem.
Copy !req
60. Really?
Copy !req
61. Let's meet in the food court.
Copy !req
62. - Pentagon City.
Copy !req
63. Hello, everybody.
What do you got for me?
Copy !req
64. On the girl's affidavit here,
it says she has a lawyer.
Copy !req
65. Frank Carter.
Do we have to involve him?
Copy !req
66. No. She met Carter
through Vernon Jordan.
Copy !req
67. Anything she tells him is gonna
get back to the White House.
Copy !req
68. We need to keep her
from making any contact.
Copy !req
69. Okay. Fine.
Copy !req
70. Thank you.
Copy !req
71. Linda Tripp called.
Copy !req
72. She's running behind.
Copy !req
73. Who runs late
to a sting operation?
Copy !req
74. Hello again.
Copy !req
75. The Metro.
Copy !req
76. Absolute catastrophe.
Copy !req
77. Sorry for the delay.
Copy !req
78. Are you ready?
Copy !req
79. Everything okay?
Copy !req
80. It's the right thing to do.
Copy !req
81. Coming?
Copy !req
82. Where will you be?
Copy !req
83. We'll be right behind you
the whole time.
Copy !req
84. What do I say to her?
Copy !req
85. You don't have to say anything.
Copy !req
86. Ms. Lewinsky, we're agents
with the Federal Bureau
Copy !req
87. of Investigation,
Copy !req
88. authorized by the attorney
general to investigate crimes
Copy !req
89. committed in relation
to the Paula Jones lawsuit.
Copy !req
90. Linda.
Copy !req
91. Ms. Lewinsky, you're under
investigation for your conduct
Copy !req
92. in relation
to the Paula Jones lawsuit.
Copy !req
93. We believe that you have
Copy !req
94. committed multiple federal crimes—
Copy !req
95. perjury, obstruction of justice,
Copy !req
96. subornation of perjury,
Copy !req
97. witness tampering
and conspiracy.
Copy !req
98. These crimes are felonies.
Copy !req
99. - Most have five-year minimums.
Copy !req
100. All told, you could be looking
at 28 years in prison.
Copy !req
101. Ms. Lewinsky,
Copy !req
102. you'll want to focus
so that we can get to...
Copy !req
103. Let's just get a handle on this.
Copy !req
104. Close the doors.
Copy !req
105. Just have a seat.
Copy !req
106. If you could sit tight.
Copy !req
107. Thank you.
Copy !req
108. Water?
Copy !req
109. Does that look familiar?
Copy !req
110. How do you have this?
Copy !req
111. Let's talk about what it says.
Copy !req
112. Right here, it says
Copy !req
113. you never had a sexual
relationship with Bill Clinton.
Copy !req
114. Monica, we know that's a lie.
Copy !req
115. We have everything we need
to prosecute you right now
Copy !req
116. for filing this false affidavit.
Copy !req
117. Now, look, I know
that you've been manipulated
Copy !req
118. into this situation by
some really intimidating people,
Copy !req
119. and I want
to get you out of this.
Copy !req
120. And the way I can do that
is if you agree
Copy !req
121. to cooperate
with our investigation.
Copy !req
122. I, uh... I sh-should have,
uh, m-my lawyer here.
Copy !req
123. His name is Frank Carter.
Copy !req
124. Yep, yep, you can get a lawyer
if you want a lawyer.
Copy !req
125. But we can make this easier and
I can give you more information
Copy !req
126. if we just keep this
between us right now.
Copy !req
127. So why don't you let me
walk you through
Copy !req
128. - what cooperation
would look like, okay?
Copy !req
129. - Okay.
Copy !req
130. The lawyer's name is Frank...
Copy !req
131. We will go to our office,
Copy !req
132. where we will do
what is called a debriefing.
Copy !req
133. Basically, you will tell us
every single instance
Copy !req
134. that you interacted
with the president.
Copy !req
135. After that,
you will make three phone calls.
Copy !req
136. Each call will be recorded.
Copy !req
137. You will call Betty Currie,
Copy !req
138. you will call Vernon Jordan
Copy !req
139. and then President Clinton.
Copy !req
140. What?
Copy !req
141. Don't worry.
Copy !req
142. We will coach you through it.
Copy !req
143. Who would do that?
Copy !req
144. No, I can't.
Copy !req
145. I'm not doing that.
You cannot make me do that.
Copy !req
146. How do you have these?
Copy !req
147. Monica, you need to understand
the situation that you are in.
Copy !req
148. Press play.
Copy !req
149. I need to know
what you're thinking.
Copy !req
150. About your affidavit.
Copy !req
151. Are you still planning to lie?
Copy !req
152. I already signed it.
Copy !req
153. My thing with him
was personal and private
Copy !req
154. and it has... absolutely
nothing to do with Paula Jones.
Copy !req
155. And I-I really thought about it.
Copy !req
156. - And maybe if this were a...
- Turn it off.
Copy !req
157. a serious lawsuit,
Copy !req
158. - I would feel differently.
- Turn it off.
Copy !req
159. - I don't understand
why you have this,
Copy !req
160. and I don't understand
what is happening.
Copy !req
161. Why is this happen...
Copy !req
162. Linda, what did you do?
Copy !req
163. Someone get her a trash can.
- I feel sick. I feel sick.
Copy !req
164. No. No, no, I can't.
Copy !req
165. Let's clear the room.
- I can't think.
Copy !req
166. I can't think.
Copy !req
167. I'm going insane.
Copy !req
168. - I'm going fucking insane.
Copy !req
169. Do you understand that?
Copy !req
170. - Monica,
I know that you don't...
- Please! Please.
Copy !req
171. - You have to make it stop
right now. Please.
- O...
Copy !req
172. Okay. That's what I'm here for.
Copy !req
173. - You can't tell anyone.
- Okay? Monica,
Copy !req
174. - you need to focus now
on your decision.
Copy !req
175. - Okay?
- Everyone's gonna find out
about this.
Copy !req
176. My dad. My family.
Oh, my God, Betty.
Copy !req
177. Betty. What's gonna happen
to Betty and Vernon and...
Copy !req
178. - Monica, you need to calm down.
Copy !req
179. Okay?
Copy !req
180. You need to focus now
on your decision.
Copy !req
181. My life is over.
Copy !req
182. Not at all.
Copy !req
183. No.
You don't understand.
Copy !req
184. - No. Monica, it's not.
Copy !req
185. - Monica.
Carter's
on the phone.
Copy !req
186. Monica, I have been
a prosecutor for 20 years.
Copy !req
187. I see people in your position
all the time.
Copy !req
188. You're in shock.
Copy !req
189. That is normal.
Copy !req
190. - I will get you through this.
Copy !req
191. I will make sure
that you are okay.
Copy !req
192. I promise.
Copy !req
193. What if I kill myself?
Copy !req
194. Monica.
Copy !req
195. No, tell me.
Copy !req
196. If I kill myself,
will this all go away?
Copy !req
197. If I jump out this window,
Copy !req
198. tell me, what would happen?
Copy !req
199. This case is not going away.
Copy !req
200. I want to talk to my lawyer.
Copy !req
201. Okay.
Copy !req
202. Okay, we can... we can do that.
Copy !req
203. But we need to know
Copy !req
204. whether or not
you're going to cooperate
Copy !req
205. with this investigation,
all right?
Copy !req
206. It is time-sensitive.
Copy !req
207. Why is it time-sensitive?
Copy !req
208. Who is it?
Copy !req
209. It's my mom.
I need to call her.
Copy !req
210. Okay.
Copy !req
211. Okay, we will go to the office.
Copy !req
212. You can call your mother,
you can call a lawyer
Copy !req
213. and we'll talk through
everything, okay?
Copy !req
214. Why don't you gather
your belongings.
Copy !req
215. It's just a short drive
downtown.
Copy !req
216. Um...
Copy !req
217. can I go to the bathroom?
Copy !req
218. - Everything from your pockets.
Copy !req
219. Okay.
Copy !req
220. Go ahead.
Copy !req
221. We should be on our way.
Copy !req
222. What do you want to do?
Copy !req
223. I'm not sure.
Copy !req
224. What do we do about...?
Copy !req
225. We're good.
Copy !req
226. Thank you, Mrs. Tripp.
Copy !req
227. We'll follow up later.
Copy !req
228. You can leave now.
Copy !req
229. Are you fellows
on your way back?
Copy !req
230. We have a problem.
She's refusing to come in.
Copy !req
231. You showed her what you have?
Copy !req
232. Yeah.
Copy !req
233. We'll figure it out.
Copy !req
234. Keep me apprised.
Copy !req
235. Neille, can you please get me
Jackie Bennett
Copy !req
236. on his cell phone?
Copy !req
237. Where is she?
Copy !req
238. She's in there.
Copy !req
239. In here?
Copy !req
240. Ms. Lewinsky.
Copy !req
241. Follow me.
Copy !req
242. Sit down.
Copy !req
243. I work with Mike.
Copy !req
244. I know he's informed you
of the evidence against you.
Copy !req
245. Candidly, I've heard the tapes.
Copy !req
246. All of 'em.
Copy !req
247. All of 'em?
How many tapes...
Copy !req
248. Scuse me.
I speak,
Copy !req
249. you listen.
Copy !req
250. That's what's happening here.
Copy !req
251. Mike has offered you a way
to save yourself.
Copy !req
252. But we need to hear from you
right now.
Copy !req
253. Do we have a deal?
Copy !req
254. I don't know about the law.
Copy !req
255. I don't know what to do
without talking to my lawyer.
Copy !req
256. Frank Carter's a civil attorney.
Copy !req
257. You're the target
of a criminal investigation.
Copy !req
258. Frank Carter
will be useless to you.
Copy !req
259. Can I at least call Frank
and maybe he could recommend
Copy !req
260. - someone...
- No.
Copy !req
261. Ms. Lewinsky,
listen to me very carefully.
Copy !req
262. Okay?
Copy !req
263. You have taken part
in a conspiracy.
Copy !req
264. We know Frank Carter and
Vernon Jordan are both involved.
Copy !req
265. Now, if you think
it's a good idea
Copy !req
266. to call up a coconspirator
right now, go.
Copy !req
267. Be my guest.
Copy !req
268. Then I want to talk to my mom.
Copy !req
269. What?
Copy !req
270. She's been paging me.
I always call her back.
Copy !req
271. And I'm sure she'll be fine.
Copy !req
272. She'll call the police
Copy !req
273. if she doesn't hear from me.
Copy !req
274. - Fallon, get the phone.
- No.
Copy !req
275. No, I want to talk to her
in private.
Copy !req
276. No.
You say hello,
Copy !req
277. you're all right,
you'll call her later.
Copy !req
278. Now go.
Copy !req
279. I said go!
Copy !req
280. Marilu Henner
Copy !req
281. is in Chicago.
Copy !req
282. Say she doesn't have the fizz
of Ann Reinking.
Copy !req
283. - Can we go see that Lion King?
Copy !req
284. I think those are
still impossible to get, Mom.
Copy !req
285. Oh. Really?
Copy !req
286. Hello?
Copy !req
287. - Hi.
- Oh, there you are,
Copy !req
288. Monica. I've been calling.
Copy !req
289. Uh...
Copy !req
290. Yeah, um...
Copy !req
291. I'm, uh... I'm at the mall.
Copy !req
292. Okay.
Copy !req
293. Well, me, Mom and Deb
have been trying to figure out
Copy !req
294. what show
we were gonna see tonight.
Copy !req
295. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
296. I, um...
Copy !req
297. I'll call you later.
Copy !req
298. All right.
Copy !req
299. - Bye.
- Wait.
Copy !req
300. - Mom?
- Yes?
Copy !req
301. I love you.
Copy !req
302. Oh. I love you, too, Dotcha.
Copy !req
303. Okay.
Copy !req
304. You've made your call.
Copy !req
305. You've had time to think.
Copy !req
306. You need to decide.
Copy !req
307. Yes or no.
Copy !req
308. I can't go to jail.
Copy !req
309. - Okay. Good.
Copy !req
310. Then you come back to our office
Copy !req
311. and either you start
on the monitored phone calls
Copy !req
312. or you wear a body wire
and you go see them in person.
Copy !req
313. I can't.
I can't trap Betty and Vernon.
Copy !req
314. - I just...
I will not do that to them.
- Too bad!
Copy !req
315. That's what we need from you!
Copy !req
316. If you want our help.
Copy !req
317. Or you can try your luck
in federal prison, huh?
Copy !req
318. - I don't understand how I'm
supposed to make this decision.
- No. No.
Copy !req
319. We are not going in circles
anymore.
Copy !req
320. I just want to talk to Frank
or at least my mom
Copy !req
321. without you hovering over me.
Copy !req
322. You're 24.
Copy !req
323. You're a smart girl.
Copy !req
324. You don't need
your fucking mommy to decide.
Copy !req
325. Well, then you should know I'm
leaning towards not cooperating.
Copy !req
326. Oh, yeah?
Copy !req
327. Okay.
Copy !req
328. Well, you should know
we're leaning towards
Copy !req
329. prosecuting your mother as well.
Copy !req
330. - No. No.
- Yeah. We believe
she knew about the affair
Copy !req
331. - and your false affidavit, hmm?
- No.
Copy !req
332. - No, not my mom.
She's not involved.
- Huh.
Copy !req
333. Jury can decide that.
Copy !req
334. Either way, I can make
the next year of her life
Copy !req
335. a living hell.
Copy !req
336. I want to talk to my mom
right now,
Copy !req
337. and I do not want
to be recorded.
Copy !req
338. This is fucking ridiculous!
Copy !req
339. Can we just calm down?
Copy !req
340. Monica,
Copy !req
341. you can go back into this room.
Copy !req
342. You're not gonna be recorded.
Copy !req
343. You can have privacy.
I will close the doors. Okay?
Copy !req
344. I want to call her downstairs.
Copy !req
345. - I will come right back up here.
Copy !req
346. I just want
to talk to her by myself.
Copy !req
347. I promise you, I promise you,
Copy !req
348. I will come right back upstairs.
Copy !req
349. Are you gonna arrest
me if I walk out of the room?
Copy !req
350. You have 30 minutes.
Copy !req
351. Monica.
Copy !req
352. Listen, this is important, okay?
Copy !req
353. Your mother is not to share
Copy !req
354. anything you tell her
with anyone.
Copy !req
355. A lawyer. Anyone.
And if she does
Copy !req
356. and word gets out...
Copy !req
357. you're in this on your own.
Copy !req
358. Understood?
Copy !req
359. Okay, go.
Copy !req
360. Nice.
Copy !req
361. We're never gonna see her again.
Copy !req
362. Pick up, pick up,
pick up, pick up.
Copy !req
363. - Hello?
Copy !req
364. Mom.
Copy !req
365. Oh, Monica.
Copy !req
366. It's bad.
Copy !req
367. I'm in trouble.
Copy !req
368. - I don't know what to do.
- Slow down.
Copy !req
369. Slow down, sweetheart.
What's going on?
Copy !req
370. Marcia, is everything okay?
Copy !req
371. The FBI has me.
Copy !req
372. - And Ken Starr and...
- Ken Starr?
Copy !req
373. What are you talking about,
sweetheart?
Copy !req
374. Like, wh-where are you?
Copy !req
375. It's Linda.
Copy !req
376. - She told them I lied.
- Honey,
Copy !req
377. where are you right now?
Copy !req
378. Pentagon City.
Copy !req
379. They came up to me...
Copy !req
380. and they took me
to a hotel room in the Ritz.
Copy !req
381. And they let me
come call you in the mall,
Copy !req
382. - but I have to go back up.
- Oh, okay, okay.
Copy !req
383. Listen to me right now.
Copy !req
384. You're gonna call your lawyer
right now.
Copy !req
385. All right, sweetheart?
Copy !req
386. They won't let me.
Copy !req
387. What?
Copy !req
388. I think
that they may be watching.
Copy !req
389. I really have to go, okay?
Copy !req
390. What are you talking about?
Copy !req
391. Why wouldn't they let you call
your lawyer?
Copy !req
392. I have to call Betty
Copy !req
393. and I have to warn him.
Copy !req
394. No, you will not call him,
Monica.
Copy !req
395. Do you hear me?
Copy !req
396. Listen to me now.
Copy !req
397. You go back up there
Copy !req
398. and you tell them
not to do anything.
Copy !req
399. You tell them that I am coming
and you tell them to wait.
Copy !req
400. Okay, I have to go.
Copy !req
401. Hey. Can I take the van...
Copy !req
402. Are you okay?
Copy !req
403. What's going on?
Copy !req
404. Nothing.
Copy !req
405. Oh, there are some,
uh, men coming over,
Copy !req
406. some attorneys.
Copy !req
407. They need to ask me questions.
Copy !req
408. Again?
Copy !req
409. Different attorneys.
Copy !req
410. I can't explain it all to you
right now.
Copy !req
411. Just asking.
Copy !req
412. You look
like you're about to cry.
Copy !req
413. Allison,
go back upstairs, please.
Copy !req
414. We bombard
the prostate with the beam...
Copy !req
415. Dr. Lewinsky,
your ex-wife's calling.
Copy !req
416. She says it's urgent. Monica's
in some kind of trouble.
Copy !req
417. Yeah, hi. Listen,
I'm about to give a talk.
Copy !req
418. Forget your talk, Bernie.
The Feds have Monica.
Copy !req
419. We'll give her ten more minutes.
Copy !req
420. She's not coming back.
Copy !req
421. My mom is coming.
Copy !req
422. What?
Copy !req
423. She said not to do anything
Copy !req
424. until she gets here.
Copy !req
425. Her train gets in at 8:50.
She just paged.
Copy !req
426. But that's...
Copy !req
427. that's four hours from now.
Copy !req
428. There are flights out
of New York constantly.
Copy !req
429. - She doesn't like to fly.
Copy !req
430. Unbelievable.
Fucking unbelievable.
Copy !req
431. Where do you want me to wait?
Copy !req
432. Let's put you in the other room.
Copy !req
433. Thank you.
Copy !req
434. My God.
Copy !req
435. When you said FBI on the phone,
I thought Pentagon job, Defense.
Copy !req
436. Maybe she got drawn
into espionage, you know?
Copy !req
437. But this is, uh...
Copy !req
438. - far worse.
- I know.
Copy !req
439. That's why I asked you
to leave your deposition
Copy !req
440. and come meet me here.
Copy !req
441. I can't believe
they actually have
Copy !req
442. - prostate conventions like this.
- Bill,
Copy !req
443. - no jokes.
- I apologize.
Copy !req
444. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
445. - So how long were she
and Clinton having this...
- I don't know.
Copy !req
446. - Well, did Marcia know about it?
I mean, before today?
Copy !req
447. Don't know.
Copy !req
448. Right over here. Thanks.
Copy !req
449. Thank you.
Copy !req
450. So what did Marcia say?
Copy !req
451. What happened so that Monica and
Clinton ever actually ended up
Copy !req
452. in a room alone together?
Copy !req
453. Bill, I don't know.
Copy !req
454. I wasn't focused on that.
I was focused on the fact
Copy !req
455. that the FBI has my child.
Copy !req
456. Marcia's on her way over there.
Copy !req
457. God knows
what she's supposed to do.
Copy !req
458. What am I supposed to do?
Copy !req
459. All right.
Copy !req
460. Step one...
Copy !req
461. you medicate.
Copy !req
462. Just throw it down.
Copy !req
463. Step two,
Copy !req
464. I'll take over.
Copy !req
465. I can handle this thing easy.
Copy !req
466. Whole thing sounds
fucking ridiculous anyway.
Copy !req
467. - Really?
- Absolutely. Federal prison
Copy !req
468. for lying about an affair?
Copy !req
469. In a civil case?
Copy !req
470. I'd wager my AMG that nobody's
ever been prosecuted for that
Copy !req
471. in the whole history
of the republic.
Copy !req
472. Bernie, look at me.
Copy !req
473. I've been your lawyer
for a long time.
Copy !req
474. I love you, man.
Copy !req
475. Love you like a brother.
Copy !req
476. You call Marcia.
Copy !req
477. You tell her,
when she gets to D.C.,
Copy !req
478. she dials me up
and puts me on with these guys.
Copy !req
479. I swear to you
Copy !req
480. I am going to fix this.
Copy !req
481. Bullshit. She doesn't want
her mom here.
Copy !req
482. She knows we have
this one tiny window
Copy !req
483. - to do monitored calls.
- I don't know.
Copy !req
484. Bill Clinton sits for
his deposition tomorrow morning.
Copy !req
485. She is running out the clock,
and the mother's in on it.
Copy !req
486. She said her mom doesn't fly.
Copy !req
487. Are you fucking kidding me?
She's from California.
Copy !req
488. How the hell'd she get
to New York?
Copy !req
489. Don't be such
an easy fucking mark.
Copy !req
490. What's our alternative,
Jackie? Huh?
Copy !req
491. You want to go back in there and
work some more of your magic?
Copy !req
492. Maybe you can make her cry
again.
Copy !req
493. That was amazing.
Copy !req
494. We don't have a choice.
Copy !req
495. Okay?
Copy !req
496. Okay, we'll wait
for your mother.
Copy !req
497. Thank you.
Copy !req
498. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
499. I'm gonna need a coffee.
Copy !req
500. Do you want anything? Like a...
Copy !req
501. - Coke?
- Yeah,
Copy !req
502. a coffee would be great.
Copy !req
503. Thanks.
Copy !req
504. Uh, yes. Can we please have
coffee service
Copy !req
505. brought up to the room?
Copy !req
506. Thank you.
Copy !req
507. If it's okay, um,
my mom was asking why
Copy !req
508. I can't call my lawyer.
Copy !req
509. What?
Copy !req
510. Well...
Copy !req
511. she asked me to call him,
and I-I told her
Copy !req
512. - that you guys said I couldn't.
- Oh, no, no, no.
Copy !req
513. We never said that you couldn't.
Copy !req
514. You're going undercover,
so it's crucial
Copy !req
515. to keep it to a few people.
But it is your choice, Monica.
Copy !req
516. I explicitly told you that.
Copy !req
517. Oh.
Copy !req
518. Okay.
Copy !req
519. You want to call your lawyer?
Copy !req
520. Yes.
Copy !req
521. Carter-Verrone.
Copy !req
522. - Yes. Frank Carter, please.
- I'm sorry.
Copy !req
523. He's left for the day.
Copy !req
524. May I take a message?
Copy !req
525. Oh, um...
Copy !req
526. No, thanks.
I'll-I'll try back another time.
Copy !req
527. I'm authorized to page
Mr. Carter after-hours
Copy !req
528. with anything urgent.
Copy !req
529. Is this an urgent matter?
Copy !req
530. No. Thank you.
Copy !req
531. Friday rush.
Copy !req
532. Probably wanted to hit 495
Copy !req
533. before it turned into
a parking lot.
Copy !req
534. Here's a public defender.
Copy !req
535. If you want to go that route.
Copy !req
536. I think I'll stick with Frank.
Copy !req
537. Well, should we, uh...
Copy !req
538. watch TV?
Copy !req
539. - See what else is on.
Copy !req
540. President Bill Clinton
is scheduled to testify
Copy !req
541. tomorrow morning in the...
Copy !req
542. the pottery that grows.
Copy !req
543. It's fun and easy.
Copy !req
544. Soak your Chia,
spread the seeds,
Copy !req
545. keep it watered
and watch it grow.
Copy !req
546. And now grow a whole collection
of fun with Chia Teddy Bears,
Copy !req
547. Puppies, Kittens,
Copy !req
548. Rams, Bulls.
Copy !req
549. There's even a Chia Tree
to keep your pets company.
Copy !req
550. - Chia Pets and Trees,
the pottery that grows.
Copy !req
551. It's so hot in here.
Copy !req
552. You already turned
the thermostat down two times.
Copy !req
553. Do we have to stay in here?
Copy !req
554. So what do you want to do?
Copy !req
555. Um, I don't know.
Copy !req
556. Uh, Crate and Barrel?
Copy !req
557. Can I help you with anything?
Copy !req
558. We're good. Thank you.
Copy !req
559. What's that for?
Copy !req
560. It's a decanter.
Copy !req
561. You...
Copy !req
562. You never seen a decanter?
Copy !req
563. I don't do much shopping.
Copy !req
564. Really?
You seem so comfortable in here.
Copy !req
565. You take wine
in the perfectly...
Copy !req
566. fine bottle it comes in
and you pour it into this.
Copy !req
567. Then you pour it again
into an actual wineglass.
Copy !req
568. Seems weird.
Copy !req
569. Yeah.
Copy !req
570. My grandma has crap like this
all over her place.
Copy !req
571. My grandma's gonna be
so disappointed in me.
Copy !req
572. Let's keep moving.
Copy !req
573. What do you say?
Copy !req
574. Um, you know what, I have to use
the restroom real quick.
Copy !req
575. Should we go back up
to the room?
Copy !req
576. There's one in there.
Copy !req
577. Just-just inside.
Copy !req
578. I know my malls.
Copy !req
579. Um, my mom's coming,
so I'll just...
Copy !req
580. I'll just be one minute.
Copy !req
581. We should follow.
Copy !req
582. We have to be very careful
about that.
Copy !req
583. She'll come back.
Copy !req
584. Okay. Okay.
Copy !req
585. Betty, pick up.
Copy !req
586. Betty, pick up...
Copy !req
587. You've reached the office
Copy !req
588. - of the personal sec...
- Fuck!
Copy !req
589. Come on, Betty. Please.
Copy !req
590. This is the home
of Bob and Betty Currie.
Copy !req
591. Please leave us a message.
Copy !req
592. Are you with them?
Copy !req
593. What now?
Copy !req
594. Okay,
Copy !req
595. we have a Pilgrim Burger.
Copy !req
596. Chicken nacho pasta pie.
Copy !req
597. Here.
Copy !req
598. Bourbon teriyaki salmon.
Copy !req
599. Thank you.
Copy !req
600. Enjoy.
Copy !req
601. Mmm.
Copy !req
602. Why would it be 28 years?
Copy !req
603. What?
Copy !req
604. You said
I could go to jail for 28 years.
Copy !req
605. Mm.
Copy !req
606. To prison.
Copy !req
607. Jail's where you go when you...
Copy !req
608. get blasted
Copy !req
609. - and you drive into a mailbox.
Copy !req
610. Oh.
Copy !req
611. Five years, perjury.
Copy !req
612. Five years,
subornation of perjury.
Copy !req
613. Obstruction of justice, five.
Copy !req
614. Conspiracy, five.
Copy !req
615. Filing a false affidavit, five.
Copy !req
616. Tack on another three
for witness tampering.
Copy !req
617. 28 years.
Copy !req
618. I'll never have kids.
Copy !req
619. Uh...
Copy !req
620. Don't say that.
Copy !req
621. No one's ever gonna marry me.
Copy !req
622. Monica...
Copy !req
623. it's only 28 years
if you face it without us.
Copy !req
624. And that's not gonna happen.
Copy !req
625. I know it may not look
like it now,
Copy !req
626. but we are on your side on this.
Copy !req
627. We are.
Copy !req
628. - Hello, George.
Copy !req
629. What's in this bag?
Copy !req
630. Dubs of the Tripp tapes.
Copy !req
631. How many Tripp tapes?
Copy !req
632. All 20 hours.
Copy !req
633. What?
H-How did you get those?
Copy !req
634. Don't ask,
Copy !req
635. - don't tell.
Copy !req
636. - Hey, what do you have tonight?
- I'm, uh,
Copy !req
637. going to the Monocle
with Ingraham and David Brock.
Copy !req
638. Ugh, you're canceling.
You're welcome.
Copy !req
639. We're listening
straight through,
Copy !req
640. every single one.
Copy !req
641. Ice?
Copy !req
642. Is that six bottles?
Copy !req
643. Why would you get six bottles?
Copy !req
644. Richard, come over here
and pop this.
Copy !req
645. George, we're celebrating.
Copy !req
646. These tapes are going to be
in the Smithsonian one day.
Copy !req
647. We're living a page
in a U.S. history book.
Copy !req
648. I'm just saying, maybe we
should hold off on celebrating
Copy !req
649. until we know for sure there's
something usable on those tapes.
Copy !req
650. This is a coup d'état
and we're the coup.
Copy !req
651. Do you know how rare that is?
Copy !req
652. If there was ever a night
to crack open
Copy !req
653. something fucking decent,
it's now.
Copy !req
654. We're starting.
Copy !req
655. 'Kay.
Copy !req
656. - Cheers.
- Cheers.
Copy !req
657. Cheers.
Copy !req
658. Hello?
Hi.
Copy !req
659. How are you?
Copy !req
660. Fine. I'm tired.
I just got off the treadmill.
Copy !req
661. You're so good.
Copy !req
662. Mrs. Tripp.
Copy !req
663. I'm Jim Fisher.
This is Wes Holmes.
Copy !req
664. We're attorneys
for Mrs. Paula Jones.
Copy !req
665. Come in.
Copy !req
666. These are, uh...
Copy !req
667. my, uh... my personal items
from the Pentagon.
Copy !req
668. I asked a colleague
to bring them by.
Copy !req
669. It's only a matter of days
till the president learns
Copy !req
670. about all I've done.
Copy !req
671. Well, that speaks
to why we're here.
Copy !req
672. Um, tomorrow morning,
Copy !req
673. the president
will be going under oath.
Copy !req
674. I'll be asking him
specific questions
Copy !req
675. about his relationships with
women like Ms. Monica Lewinsky.
Copy !req
676. Any information you can give us
would be a great help.
Copy !req
677. Gifts exchanged. Events
they attended at the same time.
Copy !req
678. That sort of thing.
Copy !req
679. She, uh...
Copy !req
680. she'd see him in the Post
or, uh,
Copy !req
681. on TV...
Copy !req
682. wearing one of the ties she
gave him and she'd be so happy.
Copy !req
683. She believed it was a...
Copy !req
684. a signal to her
to show he cared.
Copy !req
685. She actually believed that.
Copy !req
686. So she gave him multiple ties?
Copy !req
687. She loves to shop.
Copy !req
688. She's a kid.
Copy !req
689. She needed someone to save her.
Copy !req
690. Were it my own daughter,
I'd have done the same thing.
Copy !req
691. Can't expect her
to understand that now, but...
Copy !req
692. that's how she is.
She's, uh, entitled.
Copy !req
693. It's how she was raised.
Copy !req
694. I have to accept that.
Copy !req
695. Mrs. Tripp,
I'm... very sorry to press,
Copy !req
696. but we don't have much time.
Copy !req
697. Any information you can give us
that's more specific.
Copy !req
698. Again, any gifts he gave her
Copy !req
699. - or...
- President gave her a book.
Copy !req
700. Okay, what book?
Copy !req
701. And a hat pin.
Copy !req
702. Although, of course, you've been
made aware of the hat pin.
Copy !req
703. - Let's run the book
to the ground first.
- I don't know, some sort of a...
Copy !req
704. autographed photo of-of him
in...
Copy !req
705. one of her ties.
- I'm sorry,
Copy !req
706. real quick, what was the title
of the book he gave her?
Copy !req
707. His thoughtful gesture,
Copy !req
708. as they met up
in our White House.
Copy !req
709. That is a special place
Copy !req
710. meant for the most honorable few.
Copy !req
711. There's a heaviness to that.
Copy !req
712. Each, uh, handles it
his own way.
Copy !req
713. Ronald Reagan became president
Copy !req
714. and refused to set foot
in the Oval
Copy !req
715. without a full suit and tie.
Copy !req
716. George Bush became president
and handwrote letters
Copy !req
717. to every family
who lost a son in action.
Copy !req
718. Bill Clinton became president
Copy !req
719. and got the first vulnerable
girl he saw in a hallway
Copy !req
720. to suck his dick.
Copy !req
721. And then, boy,
Copy !req
722. did he make her suffer.
Copy !req
723. The book was Leaves of Grass.
Copy !req
724. See what he has to say
about that.
Copy !req
725. Monica.
Copy !req
726. Mom.
Copy !req
727. Ma'am, my name is Mike Emmick.
Copy !req
728. I'm with the Office
of the Independent Counsel.
Copy !req
729. I'd like to talk to my daughter
alone.
Copy !req
730. And not in here.
Copy !req
731. Yes, of course.
Copy !req
732. - What did they do to you?
Copy !req
733. Wait, what are you doing?
Copy !req
734. I'm calling Betty,
because they're gonna trap him.
Copy !req
735. - No, Monica,
you're not calling anyone!
- How bad this is! No!
Copy !req
736. - Please...
- You're not calling anyone.
Monica!
Copy !req
737. - Please!
- You're not calling anyone.
Copy !req
738. - We're gonna work something out
with them.
Copy !req
739. No, you can't make me cooperate.
Copy !req
740. - What are you talking about?
- Mom, I need your cell phone.
Copy !req
741. - What? No.
- Please, Mom.
Copy !req
742. - Please!
- No! Come here.
Copy !req
743. Come here right now.
Copy !req
744. All right, now listen to me,
sweetheart.
Copy !req
745. This ends right now.
Copy !req
746. This is all my fault.
Copy !req
747. I caused this, and I'm
not gonna make him pay for that.
Copy !req
748. It's his fault, too.
You need to start thinking
Copy !req
749. about yourself right now.
Copy !req
750. Mom,
Copy !req
751. I'm not gonna be the one
to take down the president.
Copy !req
752. Don't you see
that is what this is?
Copy !req
753. I am not Bill Clinton's mother.
Copy !req
754. I am your mother.
Copy !req
755. Where are you going?
Copy !req
756. I am going to talk with them.
Copy !req
757. I would like to speak with you.
Copy !req
758. And I need to use the restroom.
Copy !req
759. And she needs to use
the restroom.
Copy !req
760. You like salads though, right?
Copy !req
761. And you can have a lot of salad
with this thing.
Copy !req
762. Yeah, so we'll see. I mean, it's
good I get to eat pasta again.
Copy !req
763. I love pasta.
Copy !req
764. Do you like, um, Boston lettuce?
Copy !req
765. I don't know Boston lettuce.
Copy !req
766. It's very limp.
Copy !req
767. Oh. Probably not.
Copy !req
768. These two.
Copy !req
769. I'm at once captivated and yet
now completely understand why,
Copy !req
770. in some cultures,
they drown their female infants.
Copy !req
771. - These are shit.
Copy !req
772. What?
Copy !req
773. But she says—
Copy !req
774. in horrifying detail—
Copy !req
775. she gave him blow jobs.
Copy !req
776. But she never says
Copy !req
777. "Vernon Jordan got me a job
Copy !req
778. in exchange for lying."
Copy !req
779. She never says it.
Copy !req
780. No quid pro quo.
Copy !req
781. No smoking gun.
Copy !req
782. But it is sex.
Copy !req
783. "He shall be removed from office
Copy !req
784. "on impeachment for
Copy !req
785. "and conviction of treason,
bribery
Copy !req
786. "or other high crimes
Copy !req
787. - and misdemeanors."
- Yes, George,
Copy !req
788. we heard you the first time.
Copy !req
789. Having sex with an office girl
Copy !req
790. is not a high crime
or misdemeanor.
Copy !req
791. You've become a bore.
Copy !req
792. Hey. Come in.
Copy !req
793. The FBI has Monica Lewinsky.
Copy !req
794. They're gonna flip her.
Copy !req
795. They're gonna do it tonight.
Copy !req
796. Fuck me.
Copy !req
797. I want you to understand,
Copy !req
798. Monica has been through a lot
in her life.
Copy !req
799. We get it. We've gotten
to know her a little bit today.
Copy !req
800. She's a lovely young woman.
Copy !req
801. Oh, yeah. Lovely.
Copy !req
802. You must be very proud.
Copy !req
803. Ma'am, we were asked
to wait for you, okay?
Copy !req
804. You chose to take a train.
The train was delayed.
Copy !req
805. I'm sorry I wasn't sitting ready
Copy !req
806. for the FBI to descend
upon my daughter today.
Copy !req
807. - Of course.
- Okay, fine. Fine.
Copy !req
808. At any rate, we were assured,
Copy !req
809. with you here,
she'd finally decide
Copy !req
810. whether or not
she was willing to cooperate.
Copy !req
811. Of course she will cooperate.
Copy !req
812. She will answer
all of your questions.
Copy !req
813. And you won't charge her
with anything.
Copy !req
814. She will be given full immunity
from prosecution
Copy !req
815. provided she answers
our questions
Copy !req
816. and does monitored calls.
Copy !req
817. And, uh...
Copy !req
818. if she says no to the calls?
Copy !req
819. Do we still get immunity?
Copy !req
820. Well, the thing is
we need evidence
Copy !req
821. that can be used in court.
Copy !req
822. That's what the monitored calls
are for.
Copy !req
823. Does that make sense?
Copy !req
824. Mm-hmm.
Copy !req
825. So it's a yes?
Copy !req
826. Well...
Copy !req
827. I'll try.
Copy !req
828. I'll go explain to her...
Copy !req
829. once you put it in writing.
Copy !req
830. Okay, well, why don't you go,
Copy !req
831. uh, have a word
with your daughter,
Copy !req
832. uh, in the ladies' room
Copy !req
833. and we will work on
that last part.
Copy !req
834. Starr will say yes to immunity.
Copy !req
835. So what?
Copy !req
836. We can't get it on paper.
Copy !req
837. Not tonight.
Copy !req
838. They can dial a phone
and put it in my hand.
Copy !req
839. I won't do it.
Copy !req
840. You're not being rational.
Copy !req
841. I'll mess it up on purpose.
Copy !req
842. Yes?
Copy !req
843. - Yes?
- Can we have a word, please?
Copy !req
844. You can have a seat.
Copy !req
845. - Thank you.
Copy !req
846. So, here's where we're at.
Copy !req
847. We don't have a typewriter.
Copy !req
848. Can't you send for one?
Copy !req
849. - No.
Copy !req
850. It's 11:00 p.m.
Copy !req
851. There's no one at the office.
Copy !req
852. - All right,
how about a computer?
- No.
Copy !req
853. So you're saying there isn't
any way we can get this
Copy !req
854. - in writing?
Hey!
Copy !req
855. Enough of this fucking bullshit!
Copy !req
856. We've been waiting all day!
Copy !req
857. Now, listen, Monica will have
Copy !req
858. full immunity from prosecution,
okay?
Copy !req
859. You will have it in writing
first thing tomorrow morning.
Copy !req
860. We need to make these calls
tonight.
Copy !req
861. It is time-sensitive.
Copy !req
862. So, ladies,
we've given you a promise.
Copy !req
863. You need to give us an answer.
Copy !req
864. All right. Well,
then I feel more comfortable
Copy !req
865. if we call Monica's father
Dr. Lewinsky
Copy !req
866. - to be a witness...
- No fucking way.
- No.
Copy !req
867. to this promise.
Copy !req
868. - No. No one outside of this room
Copy !req
869. can know what's happening.
Copy !req
870. He already knows.
I've called him.
Copy !req
871. - You told Dad?
- What? You told the father?
Copy !req
872. Yes.
Copy !req
873. Hello?
Copy !req
874. Bernard Lewinsky?
Copy !req
875. - Yes.
- I'm Mike Emmick with the office
Copy !req
876. of Independent Counsel
Kenneth Starr.
Copy !req
877. I'm here with your daughter
and your wife.
Copy !req
878. - Ex-wife.
- Ex-wife.
Copy !req
879. Right. Sorry.
Copy !req
880. Sir, we have evidence sufficient
to prosecute Monica
Copy !req
881. for multiple felonies.
Copy !req
882. We're offering her a chance
Copy !req
883. to cooperate
with our office instead.
Copy !req
884. Do you understand?
Copy !req
885. Isn't she entitled
to an attorney?
Copy !req
886. - An attorney?
- Yes.
Copy !req
887. Yeah.
Does she have an attorney?
Copy !req
888. Put Monica on the phone.
Copy !req
889. He wants to talk to you.
Copy !req
890. Hi, Daddy.
Copy !req
891. Monka.
Copy !req
892. I'm here with Bill Ginsburg.
Copy !req
893. He's gonna be your attorney.
Copy !req
894. Your friend Bill?
Copy !req
895. - The malpractice lawyer?
- Yeah.
Copy !req
896. I'm, uh...
I'm gonna hand you over.
Copy !req
897. Do as he says, okay?
Copy !req
898. Okay.
Copy !req
899. Did they put you in bracelets,
sweetheart?
Copy !req
900. Uh, what?
Copy !req
901. - Are you in custody now, dear?
- Oh.
Copy !req
902. Um...
Copy !req
903. No, no.
Well, I don't think so.
Copy !req
904. They just keep asking me to...
Copy !req
905. to make a decision.
Copy !req
906. All right,
put me through to them.
Copy !req
907. Okay.
Copy !req
908. He wants to talk to you.
Copy !req
909. - Hello?
- Name, please.
Copy !req
910. Who am I talking to?
Copy !req
911. - Mike Emmick. Who is this?
- This is William Ginsburg.
Copy !req
912. - I'm Monica's attorney.
Copy !req
913. Mr. Ginsburg,
Copy !req
914. we have been negotiating
with Ms. Lewinsky here
Copy !req
915. - for 11 hours now...
- Negotiating? Really?
Copy !req
916. Is that the new term of art
for "unlawful detention"?
Copy !req
917. Sir, she could have left
at any time.
Copy !req
918. Shut the fuck up,
you motherfucking cocksucker.
Copy !req
919. - Excuse me?
- We've already heard
Copy !req
920. what you want her to do.
Copy !req
921. Now tell us
what she's gonna get for it.
Copy !req
922. Full transactional immunity
from prosecution!
Copy !req
923. - I want that in writing.
- Yeah, well,
it's nearly midnight here.
Copy !req
924. - We've been down this road
with the mother.
- Too bad,
Copy !req
925. so sad. Write it up.
Copy !req
926. - Now.
- We don't have a typewriter
here.
Copy !req
927. - Then write it out by hand
and fax it.
- No, we don't have
Copy !req
928. - a fax machine either.
- You know, I know that hotel.
Copy !req
929. I've stayed at that hotel.
They've got a fax machine.
Copy !req
930. It's a goddamn
Copy !req
931. Ritz-Carlton.
Copy !req
932. Sir, we are
not going to use a communal fax.
Copy !req
933. You are a lying sack of shit.
Copy !req
934. Okay, look... I-I am sorry,
but I do not see
Copy !req
935. the need to use profanity.
Copy !req
936. That makes one of us.
Copy !req
937. Because the plain fact
of the matter is
Copy !req
938. you don't have the power
to put a single goddamn thing
Copy !req
939. in writing now, do you?
Copy !req
940. Fucking hang up on this prick.
Copy !req
941. Mr. Ginsburg...
Copy !req
942. this is a real offer.
Copy !req
943. Tomorrow, we will fax it to you.
Copy !req
944. You will have it in writing.
Copy !req
945. So, for Monica's sake,
Copy !req
946. for her future,
Copy !req
947. believe me when I say
you do not want...
Copy !req
948. Put my client back
Copy !req
949. on the phone.
Copy !req
950. What's going on?
Copy !req
951. Sweetheart, I want you to listen
very carefully.
Copy !req
952. Do exactly as I say.
Copy !req
953. Stand up,
Copy !req
954. don't say a word,
Copy !req
955. walk out the door.
Copy !req
956. What?
Copy !req
957. They should never have held you
there, and they know it.
Copy !req
958. Now go get your mother
and go home.
Copy !req
959. Monica,
Copy !req
960. nothing's gonna happen.
Copy !req
961. They said
they were gonna send me to jail.
Copy !req
962. If they wanted to arrest you,
Copy !req
963. they would have
done that already.
Copy !req
964. I'm gonna hop on a red-eye.
Copy !req
965. I'll see you in the morning.
Copy !req
966. Now please go.
Copy !req
967. I swear to you on my life,
Copy !req
968. they cannot stop you.
Copy !req
969. Monica, do you understand?
Copy !req
970. Yes.
Copy !req
971. Mom, get your coat.
We're leaving.
Copy !req
972. There it is.
Copy !req
973. Nice work.
Copy !req
974. So this is your final decision?
Copy !req
975. Yes.
Copy !req
976. Uh, thank you...
Copy !req
977. uh, so much for everything.
Copy !req
978. Good night, Monica.
Copy !req
979. Good night.
Copy !req
980. Honey, I'm gonna make you
some tea.
Copy !req
981. We could go to Canada.
Copy !req
982. Tonight.
Copy !req
983. We just get in the Jeep
and drive.
Copy !req
984. Honey, they would
stop us at the border.
Copy !req
985. They're the government.
Copy !req
986. All you need to do now
is just get some sleep, and...
Copy !req
987. - we will finish this tomorrow.
- I just...
Copy !req
988. If I don't call Betty...
Copy !req
989. No!
Copy !req
990. You can't.
Copy !req
991. You cannot!
Copy !req
992. You have to look out
for your own life now, honey,
Copy !req
993. your own future.
Copy !req
994. I'm gonna take a shower.
Copy !req
995. Okay.
All right.
Copy !req
996. - I'm sorry.
- I don't want...
