1. A quote will disappear. A fight
with the vice president's got juice.Copy !req
2. - I've had it up to here with you!
- Don't do what you're doing, John.Copy !req
3. - A picture.
- Picture of us...Copy !req
4. - ... and someone's drawn over my face.
- That was me.Copy !req
5. His mother was a cop.
- Was?Copy !req
6. She was killed five months ago.Copy !req
7. She's recommending you.Copy !req
8. - If I can ask...
- Aide to the president.Copy !req
9. What do you say?
Want to help?Copy !req
10. Yes, sir, I do.Copy !req
11. One night he set the
briefcase down and he said, "Bess...Copy !req
12. why do you suppose only sons
of bitches know how to lick a stamp?"Copy !req
13. The point is...Copy !req
14. you've got to write a letter,
send a fax...Copy !req
15. call Western Union, contact
your congressional representatives...Copy !req
16. - ... say, "I've got a friend... "
- McGarry here.Copy !req
17. "I've got a neighbor
whose friend is dead...Copy !req
18. whose kids are dead. "Copy !req
19. - What are you talking about?
"I want to know. "Copy !req
20. How did it happen?Copy !req
21. How did the wheels
come off this thing?Copy !req
22. You gotta ask them!
You gotta ask them!Copy !req
23. - We lost five votes.
- What?Copy !req
24. - We lost five.
- Give me names.Copy !req
25. - I don't got them. Get on the phone.
- Oh, man.Copy !req
26. I had a civil procedure professor
who said...Copy !req
27. Take a beat. There you go.Copy !req
28. "When law is on your side, argue law,
and when facts are, argue... "Copy !req
29. It's not in cement.Copy !req
30. "... you don't have the law or facts...Copy !req
31. bang on the table
as loud as you can!"Copy !req
32. Well, we've got the law
on our side now!Copy !req
33. And we've got facts
on our side now!Copy !req
34. This is Josh Lyman.
Call me. I need to know what happened.Copy !req
35. We're not listening!
We're not having it!Copy !req
36. We're going to win on Wednesday!Copy !req
37. Thank you all. God bless you,
and God bless America!Copy !req
38. - Fantastic!
- Thank you.Copy !req
39. - Good job. You didn't like it.
- It was fine.Copy !req
40. - Better than "fine. "
- It was good.Copy !req
41. - Sam. Nice going.
- Thank you.Copy !req
42. - Tell him.
- Why?Copy !req
43. Sam wrote two paragraphs
and I wrote 37 pages.Copy !req
44. Still!Copy !req
45. - He blew "D. "
- It was inspired.Copy !req
46. - Why do you say that?
- So your face turns color.Copy !req
47. C.J.?Copy !req
48. - Your fan club was out tonight.
- They like my tux.Copy !req
49. - Do I have a large neck?
- What?Copy !req
50. - Because one of...
- Stop!Copy !req
51. - What?
- Look calm while I tell you.Copy !req
52. - Tell me what?
- We lost five.Copy !req
53. - What?
- 802. Five votes jumped the fence.Copy !req
54. - Are you kidding me? Are you kidding?
- Nice job looking calm.Copy !req
55. Last count, we're five votes down.Copy !req
56. - What happened?
- Don't know.Copy !req
57. - Give me names.
- We're finding out.Copy !req
58. - Hi there.
- Hi.Copy !req
59. - "Happy days are here again"?
- The president likes it.Copy !req
60. - We avoid him making those decisions.
- I made it.Copy !req
61. Right. You might rethink
marrying the lines:Copy !req
62. "Kids are dead,"
"Happy days are here again. "Copy !req
63. - It's optimistic.
- I'll say.Copy !req
64. Thank you. Good night.Copy !req
65. - Toby? What'd you think?
- Sir?Copy !req
66. - I thought my work was outstanding.
- I thought you would.Copy !req
67. Thanks for asking.
You improvised in the "D" section.Copy !req
68. - You noticed that?
- Yes, I did.Copy !req
69. - I did a little polish up there.
- Indeed.Copy !req
70. In front of everybody.Copy !req
71. I looked over once. I expected
to see you coming at me with a fork.Copy !req
72. - But for agents holding me...
- Thank God for the Secret Service.Copy !req
73. Hey there! She deserves
a nice room and supper!Copy !req
74. - You like doing that, don't you?
- Yeah.Copy !req
75. - Charlie?
- Yes?Copy !req
76. - What'd you think?
- Me?Copy !req
77. - Yes, you.
- I...Copy !req
78. He means the text,
discounting the "D" section.Copy !req
79. I mean the entire speech,
in particular the delivery.Copy !req
80. - It was excellent.
- See?Copy !req
81. Charlie's trying to say
that the singer outdistanced the song.Copy !req
82. What I heard
was the text was user-proof...Copy !req
83. though you tried
to disprove it in "D. "Copy !req
84. Know what? You're what
my mother calls a pain in the ass.Copy !req
85. That's what my mother
calls it too, sir.Copy !req
86. - Mr. President.
- Did the first lady call?Copy !req
87. She wished you luck
and said to take your back medicine.Copy !req
88. - My back's fine! I get goofy!
- I have it here, sir.Copy !req
89. She was adamant.
Her tone...Copy !req
90. No need to describe her tone.
We're married.Copy !req
91. - I don't want...
- Give me the medicine.Copy !req
92. Thank you. I'll see you
in the morning.Copy !req
93. - Yes, sir.
- Thank you all.Copy !req
94. We love you, Josh!Copy !req
95. - Thanks.
- It helps not to know him.Copy !req
96. Good to go! Move it out!Copy !req
97. Your food's getting cold.
Want me to bring it?Copy !req
98. I've never had dumplings this good.Copy !req
99. - Is mine cold?
- We ate yours.Copy !req
100. - You have to try this.
- Try this.Copy !req
101. - Here it comes.
- Mm. Oh, Sam.Copy !req
102. Try the General Cho's chicken.Copy !req
103. - And the Kung Pao. With the sauce.
- With the sauce.Copy !req
104. - That's delicious.
- You didn't try it with the sauce.Copy !req
105. Will the two of you shut up?Copy !req
106. Want to try spicy beef?
I'm happy with my food.Copy !req
107. - Botrell?
- No, it's not Botrell.Copy !req
108. I've only got two,
but Botrell isn't one of them.Copy !req
109. - Katzenmoyer and Wick.
- I'd have called that.Copy !req
110. Slide me a soda, please.Copy !req
111. Everyone's someplace else.
I got O'Bannon.Copy !req
112. - That's three.
- Who'd you get?Copy !req
113. - Katzenmoyer and Chris Wick.
- Chris Wick?Copy !req
114. - It's a mistake. Who told you?
- The minority whip.Copy !req
115. No way Wick jumps the fence.Copy !req
116. The president just told
anyone who reads a paper...Copy !req
117. we're gonna pass 802 on Wednesday.
So we've got a 72-hour fight.Copy !req
118. - Without noise.
- We care about noise?Copy !req
119. Two things you never let people
see you make:Copy !req
120. - Laws and sausages.
- Got it.Copy !req
121. - Don't involve the president.
- Right. This is us.Copy !req
122. What's the press talking about?Copy !req
123. - Financial disclosure.
- Again?Copy !req
124. - Again.
- What are you worth?Copy !req
125. I own this tuxedo,
and I've got 23 bucks.Copy !req
126. - That's good.
- Disclosure, it is.Copy !req
127. - No, I mean, that's good.
- She's right.Copy !req
128. Feed them human interest,
not "disclosing assets. "Copy !req
129. People will like reading
that you don't have any money.Copy !req
130. - It's humiliating, isn't it?
- They'll love you for being broke.Copy !req
131. Women can't get enough
of my 1993 Dodge Dart.Copy !req
132. How do we get the votes?Copy !req
133. Set aside Wick, someone's wrong.
Katzenmoyer and O'Bannon, I buy.Copy !req
134. I guess the others are Tillinghouse,
Lebrandt. We'll hear tomorrow.Copy !req
135. They'll vote together,
so we only need one.Copy !req
136. Either one, and it should be
Tillinghouse, we need help.Copy !req
137. Yeah.Copy !req
138. - Who? Who?
- You're not gonna like it.Copy !req
139. - The vice president.
- No way.Copy !req
140. - Tillinghouse and...
- No!Copy !req
141. - I have to say...
- What time is it? I've got 2:00.Copy !req
142. - 2:00.
Somebody pay?Copy !req
143. I got it.
- Turn in a receipt. I'm going home.Copy !req
144. - Beautiful work.
- Thanks!Copy !req
145. Two and a half paragraphs,
37 pages.Copy !req
146. - Where have you been?
- What do you mean?Copy !req
147. The event was over at 10:30. I thought
you were coming straight home.Copy !req
148. I'm really sorry, Jenny.Copy !req
149. - What happened?
- We're five votes short on 802.Copy !req
150. What can you do at 2 a.m. that you
can't during business hours?Copy !req
151. I can do things. I wake people up.
I meet with key staff. It's a long...Copy !req
152. Leo.Copy !req
153. Come to bed.Copy !req
154. Yeah. I'll be right up.Copy !req
155. What's this?Copy !req
156. It's a wristwatch.Copy !req
157. - For me?
- Yeah.Copy !req
158. - From you?
- Yeah.Copy !req
159. For what?Copy !req
160. Our anniversary.Copy !req
161. Come to bed.Copy !req
162. It's unusual, don't you think?Copy !req
163. I honestly couldn't say.Copy !req
164. - I'm saying, owning one stock issue.
- Yes.Copy !req
165. It's pretty unusual.Copy !req
166. And I'm saying, I couldn't say.Copy !req
167. I have no education in stocks.
I'm a speechwriter.Copy !req
168. You're communications director.
You...Copy !req
169. I can't say!
Ask the treasury secretary.Copy !req
170. - Ask the Federal Reserve. I'm a novice.
- Toby.Copy !req
171. I have never owned stock
until last year.Copy !req
172. - What made you buy it?
- I liked the company.Copy !req
173. - $5,000 worth?
- That's right.Copy !req
174. And now the stock is worth $125,000?Copy !req
175. Leela, I'm as surprised as anybody. I
didn't know till my accountant called.Copy !req
176. Did you know 71 %%% of the increase
happened after McGreggor...Copy !req
177. testified on the future
of Internet stocks?Copy !req
178. Of course I didn't.
I never pay any attention to...Copy !req
179. - Yes?
- Excuse me.Copy !req
180. - Sam says they got all five.
- Tillinghouse? Thank you.Copy !req
181. The counsel is...Copy !req
182. I've got 48 hours to a crucial vote.
Is there a way...?Copy !req
183. You arranged for McGreggor
to testify in the first place.Copy !req
184. I grew up with Ted McGreggor.
He's well-respected.Copy !req
185. I understand.Copy !req
186. But analysts attribute the jump
of the stocks to the testimony of...Copy !req
187. among others, your boyhood friend.Copy !req
188. Are you telling me you didn't know
what he was gonna say?Copy !req
189. Not only didn't I know what he was
gonna say...Copy !req
190. not only didn't I care what he was
gonna say...Copy !req
191. but if he had sat here
while I typed his testimony for him...Copy !req
192. I wouldn't have understood
what he was gonna say!Copy !req
193. - Toby.
- What?Copy !req
194. - Friend to friend.
- Yeah.Copy !req
195. You know that conspiring to manipulate
the market in any way...Copy !req
196. is a federal crime, right?Copy !req
197. - Should I talk to a lawyer?
- Toby.Copy !req
198. I'm saying you're talking to one now.Copy !req
199. What's the range we're talking about?Copy !req
200. Congratulations.
- Thanks.Copy !req
201. - Why congratulations?
- I don't know.Copy !req
202. The range? Votes are expensive.
O'Bannon's gonna want farm subsidies.Copy !req
203. Katzenmoyer will want
tax exempt for Metrolink.Copy !req
204. We're talking unions,
defense contracts.Copy !req
205. - We need to answer the question.
- Which question?Copy !req
206. How we get votes
without giving away everything.Copy !req
207. - Congratulations.
- Thanks.Copy !req
208. We give away nothing.Copy !req
209. - We can't.
- Nothing.Copy !req
210. L.B.J. never would have taken
this crap.Copy !req
211. He'd have said, "You're voting my way
so I might remember your name. "Copy !req
212. We need to win. We take a victory
lap. That's how we get momentum.Copy !req
213. We'll be tough and give away nothing.
That's what I'm taking to Leo.Copy !req
214. - And Chris Wick?
- Wick? I own his ass.Copy !req
215. I'm being mocked.Copy !req
216. - Congratulations.
- What did I do?Copy !req
217. You won for best gift
on the disclosure report.Copy !req
218. - Really? What won it for me?
- Yeah.Copy !req
219. $1189 silk smoking jacket
from Miss Sarah Wissinger.Copy !req
220. Ah, yes.Copy !req
221. You're also the runner-up with
the $345 cigarette holder...Copy !req
222. - ... also from Sarah Wissinger.
- Sarah was fond of me.Copy !req
223. I imagine, with those,
you were quite the dandy.Copy !req
224. This was fun, but we're busy...Copy !req
225. . and you have typing,
so we'll talk later.Copy !req
226. I'll take care of Wick.Copy !req
227. - Where are you going?
- Where are you going?Copy !req
228. - I was following you.
- I was following you. All right.Copy !req
229. - Don't tell anyone this happened.
- Sam.Copy !req
230. I've got a problem.Copy !req
231. Get Dom or Cristal. She likes both.Copy !req
232. - Which do you like?
- I don't drink champagne.Copy !req
233. Put it in a high hat.Copy !req
234. - What's that?
- It's a silver bucket on a tripod.Copy !req
235. - It should all be under silver.
- They'll know what that means?Copy !req
236. - Music?
- I'll put on a record.Copy !req
237. - You don't want a violinist?
- To play a violin?Copy !req
238. - Is that what people get?
- It's available.Copy !req
239. No. After it wears off, there's just
a guy with a violin in my house.Copy !req
240. - Winston's sending the choker?
- This afternoon.Copy !req
241. - It's the right size?
- We hope.Copy !req
242. - She's got a great neck.
- It'll call attention to it.Copy !req
243. - Stop!
- You spend too much money.Copy !req
244. You can squeeze a nickel
better than anyone I know.Copy !req
245. Excuse me for not making
40,000 a pop on the lecture circuit.Copy !req
246. Stop reading the disclosure reports!Copy !req
247. They'll be in the paper
in two days.Copy !req
248. - Leo.
- Josh.Copy !req
249. - Do women like violinists?
- Thinking about lessons?Copy !req
250. - No, to listen to at the table.
- Gets weird after a minute.Copy !req
251. - That's what I thought.
- Birthday?Copy !req
252. I forgot our anniversary.Copy !req
253. - Then I'd bring on a string quartet.
- Call the guy.Copy !req
254. Perhaps Mrs. McGarry would enjoy you
in a nice smoking jacket.Copy !req
255. - Leave.
- Call the guy.Copy !req
256. - I'm going to Katzenmoyer.
- What'll you give him?Copy !req
257. A wake-up call.
I want to kick his ass.Copy !req
258. - Want to dangle his job?
- Yeah. Let him hear the branch creak.Copy !req
259. - It doesn't work, we can't try again.
- Then I back off.Copy !req
260. Then Katzenmoyer and O'Bannon
order off the menu.Copy !req
261. If it does work, we get the other
votes, no problem, when it gets out.Copy !req
262. I should sell tickets to this meeting.Copy !req
263. You've got to understand
my district, Josh.Copy !req
264. Your constituents like the TEC-9,
do they?Copy !req
265. They go quail hunting with an Uzi?Copy !req
266. I won with 52%%% of the vote.Copy !req
267. Soon as I'm sworn in, I need
$10,000 a week for reelection.Copy !req
268. - You're not doing so well.
- I'm averaging $6,500. I squeak by.Copy !req
269. If the NRA makes me a target,
I lose, plain and simple.Copy !req
270. Ask me in two years, I'll be there.Copy !req
271. 55,000 more people will be killed
with guns in two years...Copy !req
272. - ... but that's beside the point.
- What is your point?Copy !req
273. Forgive my bluntness,
and with all due respect...Copy !req
274. but vote yes, or you won't be
on the ballot in two years.Copy !req
275. - How?
- You'll lose the primary.Copy !req
276. - There's no one else.
- Sure, there is.Copy !req
277. Who?Copy !req
278. Whomever we pick.Copy !req
279. You're bluffing.Copy !req
280. Okay.Copy !req
281. I'm in your own party!Copy !req
282. It's not doing us much good, is it?Copy !req
283. You'd go to the press
and endorse a challenger?Copy !req
284. No. We're gonna do it in person.Copy !req
285. You won with 52%%%, but the president
won your district with 59.Copy !req
286. I think it's time we say thanks.Copy !req
287. Know how much noise Air Force
One makes when it lands?Copy !req
288. We'll have a party.
It will be great.Copy !req
289. When the melon's done, in the
town square... You got a band gazebo?Copy !req
290. - Josh...
- We'll build one. In this gazebo...Copy !req
291. the president will drape his arm
around an assistant D.A.Copy !req
292. Have your camera to get a picture.Copy !req
293. That's the moment you're finished
in Democratic politics.Copy !req
294. President Bartlet's a good man.
He's got a good heart.Copy !req
295. He doesn't hold a grudge.Copy !req
296. That's what he pays me for.Copy !req
297. - $125,000.
- Could you stop saying that?Copy !req
298. Sure.Copy !req
299. - How much trouble am I in?
- There's two kinds:Copy !req
300. - Actual and P.R.
- Talk about actual.Copy !req
301. You're in no actual trouble.
Absolutely not.Copy !req
302. - Good.
- Hire a lawyer anyway.Copy !req
303. - Why?
- You've committed a felony...Copy !req
304. punishable by imprisonment
and million-dollar fines.Copy !req
305. Let's move from actual trouble
and talk about...Copy !req
306. - Perception.
- Yes.Copy !req
307. We've done nothing wrong, yet
the perception would be embarrassing.Copy !req
308. - And damaging to the president.
- Indeed.Copy !req
309. - Why are you talking like this?
- I'm reminded of a young deputy...Copy !req
310. who took grief because
of a woman he was friends with.Copy !req
311. - I backed you on that!
- That's why I'm helping.Copy !req
312. It's like helping my older brother.
I'm your guy on this.Copy !req
313. - What's your confidence level?
- None.Copy !req
314. - Who knows?
- Anyone who saw the report.Copy !req
315. - Everybody has it, but you...
- Excuse me?Copy !req
316. I was going to lunch, and I'm short.Copy !req
317. You wouldn't happen to have
$125,000 I could borrow, would you?Copy !req
318. - I got your back on this, buddy.
- I'm so completely screwed.Copy !req
319. A $145 Armani cravat,
which I'm pretty sure is a necktie.Copy !req
320. It was a gift which he gave away.Copy !req
321. The president would
prefer his brother-in-law not know.Copy !req
322. C.J., I'm curious about his Manchester
farm. The value increased $750,000.Copy !req
323. - Why?
- Secret Service improvements.Copy !req
324. - Can you go into detail?
- A helipad...Copy !req
325. and the ability to run a global war
from the porch.Copy !req
326. That's all for now. Later we'll
do Deputy Chief of Staff Josh Lyman.Copy !req
327. I assure you, you'll want to save
column inches for this one.Copy !req
328. - Thanks.
- They can't get enough of you.Copy !req
329. I got Katzenmoyer.
And O'Bannon and Lebrandt.Copy !req
330. - You got three!
- Wick's waiting now. I'm not worried.Copy !req
331. - Worried about Tillinghouse?
- I need the vice president.Copy !req
332. - Leo's got to lighten up on that.
- Get Wick, then we'll deal with it.Copy !req
333. Josh.
- Yeah?Copy !req
334. - Chris Wick is waiting.
- I know.Copy !req
335. He's been here 20 minutes. You have
a meeting, then the Asia briefing.Copy !req
336. - I know.
- This conversation was a reminder.Copy !req
337. It served as a waste of time.
Keep up the good work.Copy !req
338. - Congressman.
- Dude.Copy !req
339. Could you wait outside?
We want to talk about old times.Copy !req
340. - Go ahead.
- Thanks a lot.Copy !req
341. Could you close the door, please?Copy !req
342. - Is a staff supposed to impress me?
- Josh.Copy !req
343. I told the minority whip he was crazy.
No way is Wick jumping the fence.Copy !req
344. Do you know how stupid I look?Copy !req
345. - About that, dude...
- Shove it, dude. This isn't a frat.Copy !req
346. What the hell?Copy !req
347. Name the weapons banned in the bill,
and why they should be legal.Copy !req
348. - I should have called...
- Start here. Name the weapons.Copy !req
349. - Let me...
- You don't know.Copy !req
350. - Not true.
- MAC-90?Copy !req
351. - Listen...
- The PCR, MFR? Any ring a bell?Copy !req
352. My aides are...Copy !req
353. They're copycats of the AR-15
banned two years ago.Copy !req
354. - Calm down.
- They just changed grips!Copy !req
355. How about the PAT-Maxi?Copy !req
356. - A semiautomatic... Yes, I'm trying...
- A grenade launcher!Copy !req
357. I realize not everyone
shares my view of the world.Copy !req
358. And with gun control, I accept
a lot of viewpoints as valid...Copy !req
359. but we can get together
on a grenade launcher!Copy !req
360. I put you in your seat!
I got you elected!Copy !req
361. Now you guys think I'm on the leash.Copy !req
362. I'm taken for granted. I have one
photo with the president.Copy !req
363. Me and 16 other freshmen.
That makes me weak.Copy !req
364. You're not serious.Copy !req
365. I've been here over a year.
Where's the courtship?Copy !req
366. It isn't ego. A relationship with the
White House is currency. I need some.Copy !req
367. You're voting down a measure to
restrict sales of deadly weapons...Copy !req
368. because nobody invited you
to the cool kids' table?Copy !req
369. Got your attention.Copy !req
370. I'm so sick of Congress I could vomit.Copy !req
371. What do you want?Copy !req
372. A round of golf.Copy !req
373. - He doesn't play.
- What does he play?Copy !req
374. - Chess.
- Over brandy.Copy !req
375. A couple of photographers,
and we're fine.Copy !req
376. - He's gonna kick your ass, you know.
- Whatever.Copy !req
377. - I don't appreciate you...
- You're a congressman.Copy !req
378. You have to make that real.
This time it was me.Copy !req
379. You do not want to have this
conversation with the guy next door.Copy !req
380. You guys take care.Copy !req
381. - Wow!
- Wow is right.Copy !req
382. - It is so beautiful.
- Excellent choice, my friend.Copy !req
383. Stop looking at me like that.
You're talking about Jenny.Copy !req
384. It should flatter her neck
and please you.Copy !req
385. - Can I try it on?
- No.Copy !req
386. Can I rub it?
- No.Copy !req
387. - Could we talk about me?
Think I'll stretch it?Copy !req
388. I've got four of five.Copy !req
389. We need the vice president
to get Tillinghouse.Copy !req
390. - We agreed.
- No.Copy !req
391. It needs a Texan.Copy !req
392. I'll go to Richardson.
- We've been through this with him.Copy !req
393. Let's not get the caucus
more pissed off.Copy !req
394. - I'll talk to him alone.
- Do it quietly and right now.Copy !req
395. - Margaret.
- Then call me.Copy !req
396. - Yes, sir?
- I need to see Mark Richardson.Copy !req
397. You could afford to buy
one of those now if you want.Copy !req
398. There's no one in the world
I don't hate right now.Copy !req
399. Let me guess.
Josh got them back in the boat.Copy !req
400. You came to me because
you don't want to use Hoynes.Copy !req
401. - We need this one, Mark.
- I'm voting no, Leo.Copy !req
402. It's all we could get now.Copy !req
403. You didn't work hard enough. What
happened to the TEC DC-9, the TEC-22?Copy !req
404. What about the Striker 12?Copy !req
405. - We had to lose them.
- You never fought for them.Copy !req
406. We have to do this inch by inch.Copy !req
407. - No, I know how you guys work.
- That is out of line.Copy !req
408. Guns are number one to me. I've never
moved the president off that.Copy !req
409. Keeping the White House strong
is number one.Copy !req
410. If it isn't strong,
number two doesn't matter.Copy !req
411. God. The bodies being wheeled
into emergency rooms are black.Copy !req
412. The guns aren't going to Scottsdale.
They go to Detroit and Philadelphia.Copy !req
413. African-American men are being
eaten alive by drugs and poverty.Copy !req
414. I'm encouraged the White House
has discovered the drug problem.Copy !req
415. Your insight is matched only
by the courage displayed in this bill.Copy !req
416. Oh, for God's...Copy !req
417. Not the 3-inch grip, the 2-inch,
and the 30-round clip, not the 20.Copy !req
418. And three days to see if you're crazy,
as if wanting it wasn't a warning.Copy !req
419. This is for show.Copy !req
420. It's a waste of taxpayer money
to have it signed and photocopied...Copy !req
421. to say nothing of enforced.
I want the guns.Copy !req
422. Write a law that saves lives,
I'll sign it.Copy !req
423. In the meantime, don't tell me
how to lead black men.Copy !req
424. You look like an idiot.Copy !req
425. Someone gave you
a year's supply of fruit? Why?Copy !req
426. - There are people who like me.
- Why?Copy !req
427. It's Leo.Copy !req
428. What happened?Copy !req
429. He needs Hoynes.
We'll set up a meeting.Copy !req
430. We're gonna set up a meeting for you
with the vice president.Copy !req
431. Good.Copy !req
432. Jenny?Copy !req
433. I'm still here.Copy !req
434. What's going on?Copy !req
435. - Leo...
- What's going on?Copy !req
436. - Sorry you went to all this trouble.
- It wasn't any trouble.Copy !req
437. I can't do this anymore.Copy !req
438. This is crazy. I don't want
to live like this. I can't.Copy !req
439. I'm sorry about the anniversary.Copy !req
440. It's not the anniversary,
it's everything. It's the whole thing.Copy !req
441. This is the most important thing
I'll ever do, Jenny.Copy !req
442. I have to do it well.Copy !req
443. It's not more important
than your marriage.Copy !req
444. It is more important
than my marriage right now.Copy !req
445. These few years while I'm doing this,
it's more important than my marriage.Copy !req
446. I didn't decide to do this myself.
We discussed...Copy !req
447. - You can find the time...
- I'm five votes down, and I must win!Copy !req
448. - I met with the staff.
- You made the time.Copy !req
449. - I made the time tonight.
- You didn't.Copy !req
450. Margaret phoned to confirm your
meeting with the vice president.Copy !req
451. I was gonna slip out for 45 minutes
and be right back.Copy !req
452. I can't. Really.Copy !req
453. I don't suppose we could postpone
this. It's just the past few days...Copy !req
454. I have to go now.Copy !req
455. Okay.Copy !req
456. I'll be at the Watergate.Copy !req
457. Okay.Copy !req
458. And I'll...Copy !req
459. talk to you later.Copy !req
460. - You'll call me?
- Yeah.Copy !req
461. You want me to carry that
to the cab?Copy !req
462. It's okay.Copy !req
463. Call me before you go to sleep.Copy !req
464. Okay.Copy !req
465. Excuse me, sir?
Leo McGarry's here.Copy !req
466. Send him in.Copy !req
467. - Good evening, Mr. Vice President.
- Come on in. Thanks, Janeane.Copy !req
468. - Thanks.
- Why did you need to see me?Copy !req
469. I came in to talk to you about 802.
We lost five votes.Copy !req
470. I know.Copy !req
471. We got four of them back,
but I was stupid with Richardson.Copy !req
472. Now it's Tillinghouse.
I came in to talk to you about that.Copy !req
473. Are you feeling okay?Copy !req
474. Sit down. Come on, sit down.Copy !req
475. Jenny and I are splitting up, it just
happened, and I'm feeling a little...Copy !req
476. - Janeane?
- If I could have a glass of water.Copy !req
477. Can you get me a glass
of ice water, please?Copy !req
478. It's going to be fine.
These things happen.Copy !req
479. Yeah.Copy !req
480. - Do you want to talk about it at all?
- No.Copy !req
481. Thank you.Copy !req
482. - Anyway...
- I'll see Tillinghouse.Copy !req
483. - Yeah?
- I'll see him tomorrow morning.Copy !req
484. - You'll deliver him?
- It's done.Copy !req
485. I don't need to tell you
we need this win.Copy !req
486. I think we're home.Copy !req
487. Thanks, John. I want you to know
the president and I appreciate it.Copy !req
488. Leo, you mind if I ask you a question?Copy !req
489. What?Copy !req
490. When was the last time
you went to a meeting?Copy !req
491. A.A.?Copy !req
492. - What meeting could I possibly go to?
- Mine.Copy !req
493. Tell me you are not
showing your face...Copy !req
494. I have got my own meeting.
Every week.Copy !req
495. The downstairs office
here at 11:00 p.m.Copy !req
496. There are nine of us.Copy !req
497. Three senators, two secretaries, one
federal judge and two agency directors.Copy !req
498. There's an agent outside.
It looks like a card game.Copy !req
499. - Do I have enemies in that room?
- All our people.Copy !req
500. I had no idea.Copy !req
501. Neither will anyone else.
You should think about it.Copy !req
502. - Now, are you driving?
- No, I've got my guy.Copy !req
503. Good. Have a good evening.
Sorry about Jenny.Copy !req
504. Call me after Tillinghouse.Copy !req
505. It's in the bag.Copy !req
506. - Good night, John.
- Good night, Leo.Copy !req
507. - Hi there.
- How you doing?Copy !req
508. Sarah Wissinger?Copy !req
509. A smoking jacket and a cigarette
holder, both declared. I am clean.Copy !req
510. - You got these July 3.
- I sense trouble...Copy !req
511. - We didn't break up until July 9.
- There it was.Copy !req
512. - You got presents?
- You knew I knew Sarah.Copy !req
513. I didn't know about presents.Copy !req
514. They weren't saying,
"Thanks for sleeping with me. "Copy !req
515. Don't talk to me.Copy !req
516. - What's going on?
- Hoynes is meeting with Tillinghouse.Copy !req
517. The slut gave him the jacket July 3.Copy !req
518. I thought a by-product of not dating
would be that you wouldn't yell at me.Copy !req
519. That was unrealistic.Copy !req
520. Where's the president?
Haven't seen him.Copy !req
521. - How'd it go?
- What do you mean?Copy !req
522. - Last night.
- Oh, great.Copy !req
523. - She liked the choker?
- Yeah.Copy !req
524. And the violinist?Copy !req
525. You're right. After a few minutes,
it's strange, but...Copy !req
526. - She ate it up, so...
- Good.Copy !req
527. - Where's the president?
- His back is bad. He canceled.Copy !req
528. He'll stay in bed, make some calls.
We should move to my...Copy !req
529. Hey.Copy !req
530. Mr. President.
I thought you were staying in bed.Copy !req
531. No, I feel fine.Copy !req
532. Maybe you should get
back to the residence.Copy !req
533. Hm?Copy !req
534. I said, maybe you should
get back to the residence.Copy !req
535. - Maybe you should lie down.
- No need. I'm fine.Copy !req
536. - What's going on here?
- Nothing that needs your concern.Copy !req
537. An issue regarding
Toby and financial disclosure.Copy !req
538. Well, I like to...Copy !req
539. roll up my sleeves...Copy !req
540. and get involved.Copy !req
541. Mr. President, did you take
your back pills?Copy !req
542. I'll tell you, I was in a little pain.Copy !req
543. Which did you take, sir,
the Vicodin or the Percocet?Copy !req
544. I wasn't supposed to take both?Copy !req
545. We're gonna have someone
take you to bed.Copy !req
546. No. Sit.Copy !req
547. You've got a problem,
I'm here to help. You're like family.Copy !req
548. You've been there for me,
been loyal...Copy !req
549. honest, hardworking, good people.Copy !req
550. And I love you,
and I don't say that enough.Copy !req
551. Tell me the problem, Toby.Copy !req
552. - I'm Sam, sir.
- Sam. Of course you are.Copy !req
553. Sir? Sir?Copy !req
554. The situation basically is this:Copy !req
555. I arranged for a friend to testify
on Internet stocks...Copy !req
556. while, unrelated to that,
I bought a technology issue...Copy !req
557. which, partly due to the testimony,
shot through the roof.Copy !req
558. Toby.Copy !req
559. Toby, Toby, Toby.Copy !req
560. Toby's a nice name, don't you think?Copy !req
561. - Can we do this another time?
- No, please. I know my body.Copy !req
562. I mean, I know my muscles are not...
But my mind is sharp.Copy !req
563. I can focus. I am focused.
You know that about me.Copy !req
564. Here's what we ought to do.Copy !req
565. - What was I saying?
- Mrs. Landingham?Copy !req
566. - We need to run through some options.
Get Charlie.Copy !req
567. - What do you mean?
- Let's start with resignation.Copy !req
568. - Hot damn! Now you're talking.
- I think she meant me.Copy !req
569. Toby's not resigning.
We're making more of this...Copy !req
570. - I've got it!
- I've got a lawyer.Copy !req
571. Counsel's office releases a statement.Copy !req
572. We make it very clear there has been
no wrongdoing of any kind.Copy !req
573. But to avoid any impropriety, Toby
agrees to reduce his salary to $1.00.Copy !req
574. And cash his stock,
relieving the taxpayer of the burden.Copy !req
575. - Done.
- Wait.Copy !req
576. - Good, Sam.
- No, it's not. Actually, it stinks.Copy !req
577. You're a great writer.Copy !req
578. - Thank you. Leo.
- Give me a hug.Copy !req
579. Come on, give us a hug.
There you go.Copy !req
580. Excuse me?
- Charlie!Copy !req
581. - I left you alone for two minutes.
- Charlie's a great name.Copy !req
582. Thank you.
You have to go back to bed.Copy !req
583. I'm going, I'm going.Copy !req
584. Before I go,
please let me just say this.Copy !req
585. I'm thinking about getting a dog.Copy !req
586. Feel better, Mr. President.Copy !req
587. Maybe an Irish setter.
What do you think?Copy !req
588. I think that's great, sir.Copy !req
589. How do you feel, big guy?Copy !req
590. - Like I got screwed with my pants on.
- Excellent.Copy !req
591. - This isn't a political maneuver.
- I know.Copy !req
592. - I'm voting my conscience.
I know.Copy !req
593. You can't put the toothpaste
back in the tube.Copy !req
594. 240 million guns out there.
How you gonna get them back?Copy !req
595. - You can't.
- Course not.Copy !req
596. As long as they've got a gun,
I want my wife to have a gun...Copy !req
597. I want my daughter to have a gun,
and I want one too.Copy !req
598. Makes perfect sense.Copy !req
599. You might want to mention
to Josh Lyman...Copy !req
600. that congressmen don't appreciate
being bullied like schoolchildren.Copy !req
601. Yes.Copy !req
602. Katzenmoyer, O'Bannon, Lebrandt,
this new kid Christopher Wick...Copy !req
603. these are grown men
with pride and dignity.Copy !req
604. - They can't be manhandled.
- They're pissed?Copy !req
605. They're screaming bloody murder
and talking about political retribution.Copy !req
606. - I don't blame them.
- Reality is reality.Copy !req
607. Yes, which is why I'd like very much
for you to do the following.Copy !req
608. I want you to vote yes
on the resolution.Copy !req
609. - John?
- And you might mention this...Copy !req
610. to representatives Katzenmoyer,
O'Bannon, Lebrandt and Wick.Copy !req
611. Why, John, you do seize the moment,
don't you?Copy !req
612. You've got a roll call.Copy !req
613. Tell me something,
what's in it for me?Copy !req
614. Right now? Nothing.Copy !req
615. Then why am I handing you
a personal political victory?Copy !req
616. Because I'm going to be
president one day, and you're not.Copy !req
617. The restrictions
include the Mini-9 and the Ruger 14.Copy !req
618. Senior aides hoped this would serve
as a victory for the president...Copy !req
619. but the vice president's receiving
most of the credit.Copy !req
620. quick to praise the vice
president for securing a victory...Copy !req
621. Mark Richardson, a man
seldom at a loss for words...Copy !req
622. had no comment tonight. None.Copy !req
623. You have to ask, is it an intentional
snub of his old friend, Jed Bartlet?Copy !req
624. - Unbelievable.
I don't believe it.Copy !req
625. - Loosen the ketchup, he pops the top!
- And gets the ketchup.Copy !req
626. Sorry. You saw this coming.Copy !req
627. We got what we deserved.Copy !req
628. It was hubris,
and we got what we deserved.Copy !req
629. - Good night, everyone.
Good night.Copy !req
630. Listen, we won.Copy !req
631. Where's the president?
He's asleep.Copy !req
632. Wake him.
Toby.Copy !req
633. - Wake him now.
- Let's leave it until tomorrow, Toby.Copy !req
634. Let's leave it until tomorrow.Copy !req
635. There are Democrats on the Hill
with noses out of joint...Copy !req
636. Sir, Josh Lyman is here, wondering
if he could see you a moment.Copy !req
637. Sure.Copy !req
638. - Evening, Mr. Vice President.
- Josh, nice victory.Copy !req
639. Talking about the bill
or my smoking jacket?Copy !req
640. No, I was talking about the bill.Copy !req
641. It's a crappy law.Copy !req
642. - No, it is. I know, I helped write it.
- You did well.Copy !req
643. It's equal to fighting the war against
tobacco by banning certain matchbooks.Copy !req
644. These things happen slowly.Copy !req
645. I'd say you did well, sir.Copy !req
646. In fact, you may be
the only one who did.Copy !req
647. I just came by to say congratulations.Copy !req
648. Mr. Vice President?Copy !req
649. Right, Janeane. I'm on my way.Copy !req
650. - Josh.
- Yes, sir?Copy !req
651. Welcome to the NFL.Copy !req
652. Something I can help you with,
Mr. McGarry?Copy !req
653. I'm here for the card game.Copy !req
654. Thank you.Copy !req
