1
00:00:17,361 --> 00:00:19,730
It's Lucy.
2
00:00:19,830 --> 00:00:21,965
I didn't know
she did another show.
3
00:00:22,065 --> 00:00:25,302
In the '60s, after her divorce
from Desi Arnaz.
4
00:00:25,402 --> 00:00:27,404
Oh, no. They broke up?
5
00:00:27,504 --> 00:00:30,507
I know, right?
America's comedy sweethearts.
6
00:00:30,574 --> 00:00:32,743
Everything they touched
turned to gold,
7
00:00:32,876 --> 00:00:34,545
or so it seemed.
8
00:00:34,645 --> 00:00:37,181
In reality, Desi was a drunk
and they fought backstage
9
00:00:37,248 --> 00:00:38,982
- like a house on fire.
No, I'm telling you,
that's not him.
10
00:00:39,082 --> 00:00:40,384
Couldn't last.
11
00:00:40,484 --> 00:00:42,486
That's a shame.
- That's who that is.
12
00:00:42,586 --> 00:00:44,221
You don't know
what you're talking about.
- Excuse me.
13
00:00:44,321 --> 00:00:46,323
Is there an issue?
14
00:00:46,423 --> 00:00:48,091
Yeah, I need to get a poster
15
00:00:48,192 --> 00:00:49,926
for my journalism club
at school.
16
00:00:50,060 --> 00:00:51,495
I just want to know
who this guy is
17
00:00:51,595 --> 00:00:52,763
and he's trying to tell me
it's Walter Cronkite.
18
00:00:52,863 --> 00:00:54,931
Go restock the Dr. Quinn hats,
19
00:00:55,031 --> 00:00:57,934
something you can't mess up.
20
00:00:59,102 --> 00:01:00,537
I mean, it's not, right?
21
00:01:00,604 --> 00:01:02,939
No, I'm sorry about that.
22
00:01:03,039 --> 00:01:05,276
No, of course not.
That's Edward R. Murrow.
23
00:01:05,376 --> 00:01:07,578
CBS newsman way before our time.
24
00:01:07,678 --> 00:01:09,045
But I bet you know his sign-off,
25
00:01:09,112 --> 00:01:10,447
"Good night and good luck."
26
00:01:10,581 --> 00:01:13,417
Murrow's all right,
little left for me.
27
00:01:13,517 --> 00:01:15,118
I'm more of a Winchell guy.
28
00:01:15,252 --> 00:01:16,420
Who?
29
00:01:20,624 --> 00:01:22,859
Picture Jazz Age, New York,
30
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:25,462
a reporter in a trench coat
and a snap-brim fedora,
31
00:01:25,562 --> 00:01:28,199
ready with a wisecrack
and a hot tip on the mob.
32
00:01:28,299 --> 00:01:30,534
Plus some Broadway buzz.
Oh, and some dirt
33
00:01:30,634 --> 00:01:33,470
on the Roosevelts too--
that's Walter Winchell.
34
00:01:33,570 --> 00:01:37,808
He did it all with panache.
The best that ever lived.
35
00:01:39,543 --> 00:01:41,612
I just need a poster.
36
00:01:47,384 --> 00:01:49,453
- Dale.
37
00:01:49,553 --> 00:01:51,822
Sorry if I was sharp
with you earlier.
38
00:01:51,955 --> 00:01:53,657
I'm your manager.
You should feel free
39
00:01:53,790 --> 00:01:55,226
to come to me
if there's ever a question
40
00:01:55,326 --> 00:01:57,160
- you need an answer to.
- I'm only working here
41
00:01:57,261 --> 00:01:58,829
until I sell my screenplay.
42
00:04:45,929 --> 00:04:47,664
Welcome.
43
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:50,967
You've got mail.
44
00:06:21,024 --> 00:06:22,893
Hi there.
Morning, Monica.
45
00:06:28,164 --> 00:06:31,935
Linda. Can I see you a moment?
46
00:06:41,745 --> 00:06:43,446
Just a quick question...
47
00:06:43,580 --> 00:06:44,948
Is this about
the Newsweek reporter?
48
00:06:45,048 --> 00:06:46,750
Ken, he came unannounced.
49
00:06:46,850 --> 00:06:48,552
What? No.
50
00:06:48,619 --> 00:06:50,587
I wanted to ask--
and this is last-minute--
51
00:06:50,687 --> 00:06:52,523
but do you know who
Gerald McRaney is?
52
00:06:52,623 --> 00:06:54,591
- He's a, uh, actor.
- Oh, yes.
53
00:06:54,691 --> 00:06:56,527
-Major Dad.
- Okay.
54
00:06:56,627 --> 00:06:57,761
Well, he's gonna be in D.C.
55
00:06:57,861 --> 00:06:59,730
and apparently
wants a tour of Andrews.
56
00:06:59,796 --> 00:07:00,897
Can you set that up?
57
00:07:00,964 --> 00:07:06,970
Just a...
Sorry, a-a one-off tour?
58
00:07:07,070 --> 00:07:09,072
I know, it's not usually
what you do, Linda,
59
00:07:09,139 --> 00:07:11,207
but... can you help us out?
60
00:07:19,916 --> 00:07:21,785
Let's take a walk.
61
00:07:28,825 --> 00:07:30,060
So what did Mr. Bacon want?
62
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:32,563
I have to arrange a tour
of Andrews Air Force Base
63
00:07:32,663 --> 00:07:34,931
- for Gerald McRaney.
- Who?
64
00:07:34,998 --> 00:07:36,633
Major Dad, Monica.
65
00:07:36,733 --> 00:07:38,669
Look, that's not what I wanted
to talk to you about.
66
00:07:38,769 --> 00:07:40,236
Something happened
67
00:07:40,336 --> 00:07:42,438
while you were over in the
West Wing doing God knows what.
68
00:07:42,505 --> 00:07:45,909
I'm at my desk, I look up
and there's Michael Isikoff.
69
00:07:46,009 --> 00:07:49,079
He's a Newsweek reporter.
He's very salacious,
70
00:07:49,179 --> 00:07:51,915
always digging on
the president's affairs.
71
00:07:52,015 --> 00:07:53,750
Oh, what was he doing there?
72
00:07:53,850 --> 00:07:57,520
My ex-friend Kathleen,
she's purporting to be
73
00:07:57,654 --> 00:08:00,691
the victim of an unwelcome
advance from your boyfriend.
74
00:08:00,824 --> 00:08:02,859
Except she's not calling it
an advance.
75
00:08:02,993 --> 00:08:05,629
- She's calling it an assault.
- What do you mean, as assault?
76
00:08:05,696 --> 00:08:06,863
I don't know, Monica.
77
00:08:06,997 --> 00:08:09,532
- I have to tell Bill.
- Absolutely not.
78
00:08:09,666 --> 00:08:11,702
I don't want my name involved.
79
00:08:11,802 --> 00:08:14,705
Anyway, I've already reached out
to a high-level contact
80
00:08:14,838 --> 00:08:15,772
at the White House.
81
00:08:15,872 --> 00:08:17,173
Bruce Lindsey
in the Counsel's Office.
82
00:08:17,273 --> 00:08:18,775
Okay, that was very smart.
83
00:08:18,875 --> 00:08:20,376
Now you can just leave it alone.
84
00:08:20,510 --> 00:08:22,646
This is an explosive situation.
85
00:08:22,713 --> 00:08:25,616
I need to think strategically,
I need to talk to Kathleen.
86
00:08:25,716 --> 00:08:28,985
No. Listen to me,
leave it alone.
87
00:08:29,052 --> 00:08:32,055
Okay, I will not talk to Bill.
You don't call anyone.
88
00:08:32,188 --> 00:08:34,357
If you do nothing,
there's no story.
89
00:08:37,327 --> 00:08:39,529
McRANEY
Do you have any plans
for tonight?
90
00:08:39,630 --> 00:08:41,732
Hey, sir, are you kidding?
91
00:08:41,832 --> 00:08:44,234
-It's Friday night.
- Oh, then you're free.
92
00:08:44,334 --> 00:08:48,138
- Well, yeah.
93
00:08:48,238 --> 00:08:50,406
Why do you ask?
94
00:09:00,717 --> 00:09:01,918
Hello?
95
00:09:03,319 --> 00:09:04,587
Kathleen.
96
00:09:05,922 --> 00:09:08,158
It's Linda Tripp.
97
00:09:08,258 --> 00:09:10,326
It's been a long time.
98
00:09:10,426 --> 00:09:11,728
How are you?
99
00:09:11,828 --> 00:09:15,766
Well, a journalist showed up
at my work yesterday.
100
00:09:15,866 --> 00:09:17,567
I-I hope he didn't bother you.
101
00:09:17,668 --> 00:09:20,503
I'm not even sure if I'm going
to go on the record or not.
102
00:09:20,603 --> 00:09:23,339
On the record
about what, Kathleen?
103
00:09:23,439 --> 00:09:28,444
About what occurred
between the president and me.
104
00:09:28,578 --> 00:09:30,847
What are you saying occurred?
105
00:09:30,947 --> 00:09:32,783
You know.
106
00:09:32,883 --> 00:09:35,618
I feel like I don't know.
107
00:09:35,752 --> 00:09:38,621
You saw me right after.
108
00:09:40,056 --> 00:09:41,925
Near the Oval. Remember?
109
00:09:42,025 --> 00:09:43,626
I can't believe you're
putting me in this position.
110
00:09:45,295 --> 00:09:47,630
I'm sorry. I just thought you
could tell them what happened.
111
00:09:47,731 --> 00:09:51,134
Kathleen, if I am forced to
talk to a reporter,
112
00:09:51,234 --> 00:09:53,303
this is what I honestly
remember happening.
113
00:09:53,403 --> 00:09:55,772
I remember you and the president
114
00:09:55,872 --> 00:09:58,641
flirting whenever
you saw each other in the hall,
115
00:09:58,775 --> 00:10:00,376
and you talking constantly about
116
00:10:00,476 --> 00:10:02,378
how attractive he was.
117
00:10:02,478 --> 00:10:03,814
And yes, I do remember
seeing you that day.
118
00:10:03,947 --> 00:10:05,315
You asked for my lipstick
119
00:10:05,448 --> 00:10:09,052
and you looked like
you were on cloud nine.
120
00:10:09,152 --> 00:10:12,322
So, I have to wonder
what on earth possessed you
121
00:10:12,455 --> 00:10:15,158
to send Michael Isikoff
to my desk when you know
122
00:10:15,291 --> 00:10:17,961
I know the reality
of the situation.
123
00:10:19,562 --> 00:10:22,432
-Hello?
- Why are you saying all this?
124
00:10:22,498 --> 00:10:24,000
Because it's true.
125
00:10:24,100 --> 00:10:25,836
I don't know
what you want me to tell you.
126
00:10:25,969 --> 00:10:28,004
I know you and I didn't...
127
00:10:28,138 --> 00:10:30,907
part on good terms,
but for you
128
00:10:31,007 --> 00:10:32,843
- to try and-and lie...
129
00:10:32,976 --> 00:10:35,578
H-Hold on. Hold on.
There's a call waiting.
130
00:10:35,678 --> 00:10:36,913
MULHERN
Like what, sir?
131
00:10:37,013 --> 00:10:38,348
Well, you know...
- Hello.
132
00:10:38,481 --> 00:10:39,916
Did Bruce Lindsey
get back to you?
133
00:10:40,016 --> 00:10:41,251
H-Hold on one second.
134
00:10:42,618 --> 00:10:44,755
Kathleen, I'm sorry.
I have to go.
135
00:10:44,855 --> 00:10:46,589
In the future,
don't have the press
136
00:10:46,689 --> 00:10:48,424
ontact me without my approval.c
137
00:10:48,524 --> 00:10:49,860
Hmm?
138
00:10:52,195 --> 00:10:54,130
Monica.
139
00:10:54,197 --> 00:10:55,866
No, it's still me.
140
00:10:55,999 --> 00:10:59,035
Who's Moni...
141
00:10:59,169 --> 00:11:00,103
Hi.
142
00:11:00,203 --> 00:11:01,471
Did you get ahold of him?
143
00:11:01,537 --> 00:11:05,208
No. I've emailed twice more.
Nothing.
144
00:11:05,308 --> 00:11:08,044
Not from anyone
at the White House.
145
00:11:09,045 --> 00:11:10,713
Linda.
146
00:11:10,847 --> 00:11:12,148
Not good.
147
00:11:14,450 --> 00:11:17,954
-♪
148
00:11:18,054 --> 00:11:21,691
"Sit down. You were
picked out of a lineup.
149
00:11:21,792 --> 00:11:23,726
You're not going anywhere."
150
00:11:24,694 --> 00:11:26,729
I didn't do anything.
151
00:11:26,863 --> 00:11:29,399
"I know you sent someone
to kill my wife last night."
152
00:11:29,532 --> 00:11:32,035
It sounds like you
got a problem.
153
00:11:32,135 --> 00:11:36,406
"No, you're the one
with a problem. Two of them.
154
00:11:36,506 --> 00:11:42,212
One is murder with special
circumstances. The other is me."
155
00:11:44,147 --> 00:11:46,749
You're not giving me anything
to react to.
156
00:11:46,883 --> 00:11:48,518
Well, I'm not good like you are.
157
00:11:48,584 --> 00:11:50,086
Can you fucking try?
158
00:11:50,220 --> 00:11:51,421
I'm sorry. I...
159
00:11:51,521 --> 00:11:52,755
Just shh...
160
00:11:52,856 --> 00:11:55,091
I didn't
do anything.
161
00:11:55,225 --> 00:11:57,160
I didn't do anything.
162
00:11:57,260 --> 00:11:58,261
All right, one more.
163
00:12:01,865 --> 00:12:03,699
"Sit down.
164
00:12:03,766 --> 00:12:08,738
You were picked out of a lineup.
You're not going anywhere."
165
00:12:08,839 --> 00:12:11,607
I done... I didn't...
166
00:12:11,741 --> 00:12:13,844
Fuck!
167
00:12:13,944 --> 00:12:15,278
I can't fucking focus!
168
00:12:15,411 --> 00:12:17,613
- Okay, we can go back.
- I've got no space to work
169
00:12:17,713 --> 00:12:19,449
in this shithole.
Every time I go down to Redondo,
170
00:12:19,582 --> 00:12:22,785
there's press out there saying,
"Where's Paula? How's Paula?"
171
00:12:22,886 --> 00:12:24,120
But I'm the one
who has to go to work
172
00:12:24,254 --> 00:12:26,422
at a job I hate to provide
for my family.
173
00:12:26,522 --> 00:12:27,623
I know, baby.
174
00:12:27,723 --> 00:12:28,791
Oh, you know?
175
00:12:28,925 --> 00:12:30,626
You know, do you?
You know what it's like?
176
00:12:30,726 --> 00:12:32,128
Going into work,
177
00:12:32,228 --> 00:12:34,730
having the airport ops guys
laughing behind my back,
178
00:12:34,797 --> 00:12:39,769
thinking my wife got down on
her knees and blew Bill Clinton.
179
00:12:40,871 --> 00:12:42,305
Steve, you're scaring me.
180
00:12:42,438 --> 00:12:44,941
This is all making you so mad.
181
00:12:48,078 --> 00:12:49,980
I just can't stop picturing it.
182
00:12:51,314 --> 00:12:52,715
You and him in that hotel room.
183
00:12:52,815 --> 00:12:55,986
What do you mean?
What-what are you saying?
184
00:12:58,121 --> 00:13:02,558
Hey, you know what happened.
Look at me.
185
00:13:06,496 --> 00:13:09,799
None of this means nothing
if you don't believe me.
186
00:13:11,601 --> 00:13:12,502
Yeah?
187
00:13:12,602 --> 00:13:14,070
Are you together?
188
00:13:14,170 --> 00:13:17,240
Put me on speaker.
Turn on the TV.
189
00:13:19,309 --> 00:13:21,011
It's Susan.
190
00:13:25,982 --> 00:13:28,651
...that the Constitution
does not protect Mr. Clinton,
191
00:13:28,751 --> 00:13:30,186
or any other president,
192
00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:33,189
rom lawsuits that are unrelatedf
o his official duties.t
193
00:13:33,289 --> 00:13:35,525
Oh, my gosh.
-This means specifically
that the lawsuit
194
00:13:35,658 --> 00:13:37,693
against Mr. Clinton
brought by Paula Jones...
195
00:13:37,793 --> 00:13:41,764
- We did it. We won!
196
00:13:41,864 --> 00:13:43,499
Paula, you got all of them.
197
00:13:43,599 --> 00:13:46,136
Even that little Jewish lady.
198
00:13:46,202 --> 00:13:49,372
Even she said, Paula,
you have the right
199
00:13:49,472 --> 00:13:53,209
to take him to court and
make him answer for what he did.
200
00:13:53,309 --> 00:13:55,545
-Oh, that's probably
the hubby calling.
201
00:13:55,678 --> 00:13:57,880
I'll try you back.
Happy, happy!
202
00:13:58,014 --> 00:13:59,549
John Paul Stevens writing,
203
00:13:59,682 --> 00:14:02,118
"Like every other citizen,
Paula Jones
204
00:14:02,218 --> 00:14:04,687
has a right to an orderly
disposition of her claims."
205
00:14:04,787 --> 00:14:06,522
You believe this?
206
00:14:08,858 --> 00:14:10,726
- Oh, my God!
- Yes!
207
00:14:10,860 --> 00:14:12,195
- Fuck yes. Fuck yes!
208
00:14:12,295 --> 00:14:13,529
Fuck you!
209
00:14:13,629 --> 00:14:14,897
It's important
for her to proceed,
210
00:14:14,998 --> 00:14:16,299
because what's at issue
in this case
211
00:14:16,399 --> 00:14:18,234
is reputation.
212
00:14:18,334 --> 00:14:19,802
The Supreme Court
has reaffirmed
213
00:14:19,902 --> 00:14:22,305
that no one is above the law,
no matter their...
214
00:14:22,405 --> 00:14:24,574
Why doesn't the president
215
00:14:24,707 --> 00:14:26,142
of the United States simply
come out and say, "I..."
216
00:14:26,242 --> 00:14:27,343
The time has come.
217
00:14:27,410 --> 00:14:30,746
His running away from this
is over.
218
00:14:35,518 --> 00:14:38,221
- Sir, Bob Bennett.
- Thank you.
219
00:14:40,023 --> 00:14:41,824
Evening, Mr. President.
220
00:14:49,599 --> 00:14:52,202
- You need to talk about...
- Nine to zero?
221
00:14:53,936 --> 00:14:56,939
Nine to fucking zero?
222
00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:59,075
Couldn't even get Ruth?
223
00:14:59,175 --> 00:15:01,244
This is horseshit, Bob.
224
00:15:01,344 --> 00:15:03,513
It's the worst decision
in the history of the court.
225
00:15:03,613 --> 00:15:05,615
Well, Dred Scott...
226
00:15:05,715 --> 00:15:07,917
Don't talk to me
about Dred Scott.
227
00:15:09,852 --> 00:15:12,522
Y-You know what
I'm doing this week?
228
00:15:12,622 --> 00:15:14,424
I'm getting Russia to turn away
229
00:15:14,524 --> 00:15:17,260
every missile it has
pointing at a NATO target,
230
00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:18,461
all of them.
231
00:15:18,561 --> 00:15:21,031
It's a lot,
but I keep getting sidetracked
232
00:15:21,131 --> 00:15:23,299
by this fucking witch hunt.
233
00:15:23,433 --> 00:15:26,636
I'm unhappy too, Mr. President,
but now that this has happened,
234
00:15:26,769 --> 00:15:29,805
we need to
talk about next steps.
235
00:15:29,939 --> 00:15:33,309
If I can be candid, I think
you should settle this case.
236
00:15:33,409 --> 00:15:36,212
What? You think
that'll stop this?
237
00:15:36,312 --> 00:15:38,448
This Lonoke girl is just a pawn.
238
00:15:38,548 --> 00:15:42,385
Bob, I lost money on
some Ozark vacation homes,
239
00:15:42,485 --> 00:15:44,654
and now I've got a prosecutor
going after everyone
240
00:15:44,787 --> 00:15:47,623
who's ever met me. You know,
they want to indict Hillary
241
00:15:47,723 --> 00:15:50,826
over a discrepancy on some
12-year-old billing records.
242
00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:54,497
Our best friend died,
shot himself in the head.
243
00:15:54,630 --> 00:15:57,400
Instead of displaying
even a moment of grace,
244
00:15:57,500 --> 00:16:00,103
they went out that day
and said we murdered him.
245
00:16:00,170 --> 00:16:01,571
They have no shame.
246
00:16:01,671 --> 00:16:03,573
They're trying to
use the legal system
247
00:16:03,673 --> 00:16:06,008
to overturn an election,
and they won't stop
248
00:16:06,142 --> 00:16:07,743
until I give in
and leave office.
249
00:16:07,843 --> 00:16:09,479
Well, that's not happening.
250
00:16:09,579 --> 00:16:11,347
It's fucking not.
251
00:16:13,015 --> 00:16:18,488
Well, in that case,
Mr. President, we go to trial.
252
00:16:18,588 --> 00:16:21,757
Leave it up to a jury
who to believe.
253
00:16:21,857 --> 00:16:23,593
We're preparing for that.
254
00:16:25,195 --> 00:16:26,929
She's not the innocent
she claims to be.
255
00:16:27,029 --> 00:16:29,865
We got people in the field
looking into her past.
256
00:16:29,999 --> 00:16:33,869
But as you must know,
they will do the same to you.
257
00:16:37,207 --> 00:16:39,142
She'll never let me settle.
258
00:16:39,209 --> 00:16:41,344
- Paula Jones, I don't think...
- No.
259
00:16:44,046 --> 00:16:45,381
Hillary.
260
00:17:01,897 --> 00:17:06,402
-
- R
- merica held hostage, day 1,639.
- A
261
00:17:06,536 --> 00:17:09,805
Today, folks, we learned Mrs.
Clinton took a $50,000 check
262
00:17:09,905 --> 00:17:14,744
from a Chinaman who wanted
a photo op in the Oval.
263
00:17:43,873 --> 00:17:45,875
Hi, Linda, this is
Michael Isikoff of Newsweek,
264
00:17:45,941 --> 00:17:47,943
following up, wanted to see
if you'd spoken
265
00:17:48,043 --> 00:17:49,512
with Kathleen Willey.
266
00:17:49,612 --> 00:17:51,414
- My God.
-Yeah. Anyway,
267
00:17:51,514 --> 00:17:53,249
you know, just let me know.
268
00:17:53,349 --> 00:17:55,718
I believe you know
how to get ahold of me, so...
269
00:17:55,785 --> 00:17:57,953
-Thanks.
270
00:17:58,053 --> 00:17:59,955
Astounding.
271
00:18:01,857 --> 00:18:03,226
Astounding.
272
00:18:07,197 --> 00:18:08,431
Linda.
273
00:18:11,133 --> 00:18:13,303
On what planet
was leaving a message
274
00:18:13,436 --> 00:18:15,905
on my Pentagon-issued machine
a good idea?
275
00:18:15,971 --> 00:18:18,374
- Okay, it was...
- I refuse to participate
in this debacle.
276
00:18:19,875 --> 00:18:21,811
And yes, I did speak to Kathleen
and suffice to say,
277
00:18:21,911 --> 00:18:23,813
I won't be confirming her story
278
00:18:23,913 --> 00:18:25,581
for one minor
inconvenient reason.
279
00:18:25,648 --> 00:18:27,149
Which is?
280
00:18:27,250 --> 00:18:29,051
I know the truth.
281
00:18:29,151 --> 00:18:31,254
What do you mean?
What's the truth?
282
00:18:31,321 --> 00:18:34,490
I'm very busy. I have to go.
283
00:18:34,590 --> 00:18:37,660
- Do not call me at the Pentagon.
- Okay.
284
00:18:37,793 --> 00:18:40,663
If you absolutely have
to call me, call me at home.
285
00:18:42,097 --> 00:18:47,136
If you get my machine or one
of my kids, your name is Harvey.
286
00:18:48,338 --> 00:18:49,672
Okay.
287
00:18:51,106 --> 00:18:52,975
Harvey.
288
00:18:56,111 --> 00:18:58,748
- Are you excited?
- To meet Matt Drudge?
289
00:18:58,848 --> 00:19:01,251
- No, no. To see your crush.
- Ugh.
290
00:19:01,351 --> 00:19:04,019
I'm excited. You're so awkward
in her presence.
291
00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:06,188
Please, do not cause
an incident.
292
00:19:11,261 --> 00:19:12,795
Also, she's a lesbian.
293
00:19:12,862 --> 00:19:15,531
She is not.
She used to date Dinesh D'Souza.
294
00:19:15,665 --> 00:19:16,966
- There he is.
- Laura!
295
00:19:17,032 --> 00:19:19,034
Oh, my God.
296
00:19:19,168 --> 00:19:20,536
Hi.
297
00:19:20,636 --> 00:19:22,672
Oh... hello, Coulter.
298
00:19:22,772 --> 00:19:24,940
- Ingraham.
- Mm.
299
00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:27,710
This way. Coat check
is to your left.
300
00:19:29,178 --> 00:19:30,713
Tom. Tom, if you haven't
tried one of those,
301
00:19:30,846 --> 00:19:32,882
you are missing out.
Get in there.
302
00:19:36,786 --> 00:19:42,057
What must it be like
to be a grayscale Xerox of me?
303
00:19:42,191 --> 00:19:44,327
I don't see how
she could be your Xerox,
304
00:19:44,394 --> 00:19:46,996
when, unlike you, she attended
an elite law school.
305
00:19:47,062 --> 00:19:48,964
Michigan is top ten.
306
00:19:49,064 --> 00:19:52,402
See, that's among the saddest
sentences I've ever heard.
307
00:19:54,404 --> 00:19:55,571
Oh, there's Drudge.
308
00:19:55,671 --> 00:19:58,674
That's what he looks like?
309
00:19:58,741 --> 00:20:00,910
- My God.
George.
310
00:20:01,877 --> 00:20:03,346
Meet Matt.
311
00:20:03,413 --> 00:20:04,814
Drudge Report is one
of the biggest sites
312
00:20:04,914 --> 00:20:06,582
on the World Wide Web.
313
00:20:06,682 --> 00:20:08,751
I've been addicted ever since
you reported Ken Starr
314
00:20:08,884 --> 00:20:11,053
wanted to indict Hillary
for perjury.
315
00:20:11,153 --> 00:20:12,822
How do you get this stuff?
316
00:20:12,922 --> 00:20:15,090
Nice hat.
317
00:20:15,224 --> 00:20:16,526
Is it serious?
318
00:20:16,592 --> 00:20:21,263
Oh, I cannot believe
I am meeting you.
319
00:20:21,397 --> 00:20:22,832
Thank you. How kind.
320
00:20:22,932 --> 00:20:25,000
My friend George here
is of counsel
321
00:20:25,100 --> 00:20:26,736
at Wachtell Lipton
up in New York,
322
00:20:26,836 --> 00:20:29,071
but he's also one of the elves.
323
00:20:29,171 --> 00:20:30,272
The elves?
What are the elves?
324
00:20:30,406 --> 00:20:32,274
It's a name Ann gave us.
325
00:20:32,408 --> 00:20:34,544
We're a group of attorneys
with day jobs,
326
00:20:34,610 --> 00:20:37,447
but we gather at night
and do what we can to help
327
00:20:37,580 --> 00:20:38,948
the Paula Jones suit move along.
328
00:20:39,081 --> 00:20:41,951
Oh, I love that. Well,
you know, that's what I do.
329
00:20:42,084 --> 00:20:44,086
- I move stories along.
- Great to finally
330
00:20:44,186 --> 00:20:45,888
have an ally
in the news business.
331
00:20:45,955 --> 00:20:47,890
What took so long?
332
00:20:47,957 --> 00:20:49,959
Well, my dear Ann,
333
00:20:50,059 --> 00:20:51,627
the Internet
needed to be invented.
334
00:20:51,727 --> 00:20:54,196
You know how many people read
the holy goddamn New York Times?
335
00:20:54,296 --> 00:20:55,465
About a million.
336
00:20:55,565 --> 00:20:57,633
At the rate I'm going,
I'll blow past that
337
00:20:57,767 --> 00:20:59,134
by the end of next year.
338
00:20:59,234 --> 00:21:01,036
Print is dead.
339
00:21:01,136 --> 00:21:03,806
Speaking of, I hear
another woman's come forward.
340
00:21:03,939 --> 00:21:05,140
Is that true?
341
00:21:05,274 --> 00:21:07,209
Uh...
342
00:21:08,578 --> 00:21:12,648
I make no claims
under oath or affirmation.
343
00:21:14,717 --> 00:21:16,151
But...
344
00:21:17,487 --> 00:21:20,255
...if such a woman exists,
345
00:21:20,322 --> 00:21:22,825
her claims are highly credible
346
00:21:22,958 --> 00:21:25,160
and she's talking to
Mike Isikoff at Newsweek.
347
00:21:25,260 --> 00:21:26,328
Really?
348
00:21:26,462 --> 00:21:29,131
Just keep my name out of it.
349
00:21:31,467 --> 00:21:34,236
All right, well, I've gotta
keep him circulating.
350
00:21:34,336 --> 00:21:36,171
Uh, Matt, there's my gal pal,
works at Rutherford.
351
00:21:36,305 --> 00:21:37,440
Cynthia.
352
00:21:37,507 --> 00:21:39,509
She and I golf together
in Palm Springs.
353
00:21:48,017 --> 00:21:49,452
You're ridiculous.
354
00:21:49,519 --> 00:21:51,487
- Am I?
- Mm-hmm.
355
00:22:05,167 --> 00:22:07,470
Sir, sorry to interrupt.
356
00:22:07,537 --> 00:22:09,505
It's fine.
357
00:22:13,275 --> 00:22:15,377
Monica is calling again.
358
00:22:15,511 --> 00:22:17,880
She keeps asking
when she can come visit.
359
00:22:19,882 --> 00:22:22,552
She has more gifts
she'd like to give you.
360
00:22:25,555 --> 00:22:27,056
She's a good girl.
361
00:22:27,156 --> 00:22:28,858
She's gonna keep reaching out.
362
00:22:31,627 --> 00:22:33,729
Tell her I'm busy.
363
00:22:40,736 --> 00:22:42,171
Actually, Betty?
364
00:22:42,237 --> 00:22:43,573
Sir.
365
00:22:43,673 --> 00:22:46,375
Tell her to come in.
366
00:22:47,409 --> 00:22:48,811
Tonight.
367
00:22:48,911 --> 00:22:50,580
Yes, sir.
368
00:23:00,556 --> 00:23:01,591
Hi there.
369
00:23:01,724 --> 00:23:02,992
You look lovely.
370
00:23:03,092 --> 00:23:04,594
Oh. Really?
371
00:23:04,727 --> 00:23:07,096
Thanks. I feel flushed.
372
00:23:07,229 --> 00:23:08,263
This was so last-minute.
373
00:23:08,397 --> 00:23:11,100
I had to run home
to grab this and change.
374
00:23:18,908 --> 00:23:20,676
I come bearing gifts.
375
00:23:20,776 --> 00:23:21,844
Wow.
376
00:23:21,944 --> 00:23:23,546
What have we got here?
377
00:23:23,613 --> 00:23:25,515
I know you don't go
to the Vineyard for a bit,
378
00:23:25,615 --> 00:23:27,950
but I wanted to make sure
you had a beach read.
379
00:23:41,564 --> 00:23:44,800
- Oh.
- It's my favorite book
from college.
380
00:23:48,270 --> 00:23:50,873
When I said "beach read,"
381
00:23:50,973 --> 00:23:52,642
it was kind of a joke.
382
00:23:52,742 --> 00:23:54,409
I, uh...
383
00:23:54,476 --> 00:23:57,479
I just-I know that
you've read everything, so...
384
00:23:57,580 --> 00:23:59,549
Wow.
385
00:23:59,649 --> 00:24:00,816
That's, uh...
386
00:24:00,950 --> 00:24:02,317
That's great.
387
00:24:05,888 --> 00:24:08,791
You want to... get a Diet Coke?
388
00:24:33,115 --> 00:24:34,684
I wanted to...
389
00:24:34,784 --> 00:24:36,485
talk a minute.
390
00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:40,355
I've been thinking about you.
391
00:24:40,489 --> 00:24:43,258
Yeah, I've been thinking
about you, too.
392
00:24:46,862 --> 00:24:47,830
You know this, uh...
393
00:24:47,930 --> 00:24:50,032
this thing between us?
394
00:24:51,701 --> 00:24:54,469
I started it back up again
when I knew I shouldn't.
395
00:24:55,470 --> 00:24:57,607
I couldn't stop myself.
396
00:24:58,874 --> 00:25:00,442
The fact is...
397
00:25:02,612 --> 00:25:04,179
...it's not right.
398
00:25:04,279 --> 00:25:05,180
No, it is right.
399
00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:07,182
No, it's not, Monica.
400
00:25:07,282 --> 00:25:08,217
It's not right for you,
401
00:25:08,317 --> 00:25:09,351
and it's not right
for my family.
402
00:25:09,451 --> 00:25:10,552
No, how could I feel all of this
403
00:25:10,653 --> 00:25:12,321
- and it not be right?
- Monica, listen, please,
404
00:25:12,387 --> 00:25:14,323
I need you to understand.
405
00:25:14,389 --> 00:25:16,458
I've been down this road.
406
00:25:20,329 --> 00:25:23,633
When I hit 40,
I-I was governor of Arkansas.
407
00:25:23,733 --> 00:25:26,235
Hillary was top dog at her firm.
408
00:25:27,202 --> 00:25:30,239
We had a beautiful
six-year-old girl
409
00:25:30,372 --> 00:25:32,407
who felt like a miracle.
410
00:25:33,408 --> 00:25:36,746
But I started
to put all that at risk.
411
00:25:36,879 --> 00:25:39,581
And I hated myself.
412
00:25:39,682 --> 00:25:41,583
My only option was to walk away.
413
00:25:41,684 --> 00:25:43,252
Divorce, quit politics.
414
00:25:44,253 --> 00:25:46,355
I thought, you know,
if I have to work
415
00:25:46,421 --> 00:25:48,090
in a gas station
to be an honest man,
416
00:25:48,223 --> 00:25:49,859
then so be it.
417
00:25:53,729 --> 00:25:55,698
But I couldn't leave.
418
00:25:57,933 --> 00:25:59,669
It was Chelsea.
419
00:26:01,603 --> 00:26:03,673
And so I cut it out.
420
00:26:05,007 --> 00:26:06,776
I committed to my marriage.
421
00:26:07,743 --> 00:26:09,879
My family.
422
00:26:11,914 --> 00:26:13,783
Monica...
423
00:26:15,584 --> 00:26:18,788
I can't do this with you
anymore.
424
00:26:23,525 --> 00:26:27,529
I was so happy
when Betty called me in today.
425
00:26:27,629 --> 00:26:28,731
I thought you just wanted
426
00:26:28,798 --> 00:26:31,801
- to see me.
- I still want you in my life.
427
00:26:31,901 --> 00:26:34,536
If you and I
are just friends, then...
428
00:26:34,636 --> 00:26:36,638
Monica, lis-listen to me.
429
00:26:36,739 --> 00:26:39,641
- You are a special,
vibrant girl.
430
00:26:39,775 --> 00:26:41,476
And you don't see it yet,
but you're just becoming
431
00:26:41,610 --> 00:26:43,645
the person
who you're going to be.
432
00:26:43,779 --> 00:26:46,916
And that woman is gonna do
stunning, marvelous things.
433
00:26:46,982 --> 00:26:48,217
I just want to be here with you.
434
00:26:48,317 --> 00:26:49,384
That's exactly it.
435
00:26:49,484 --> 00:26:50,820
If you and I are just friends,
436
00:26:50,953 --> 00:26:53,322
then you can come see me
and-and it won't matter
437
00:26:53,422 --> 00:26:54,990
what anyone says.
438
00:26:56,992 --> 00:26:58,327
Mr. President?
439
00:26:58,460 --> 00:26:59,995
Prime Minister Blair.
440
00:27:00,996 --> 00:27:03,733
Oh. Come here.
441
00:27:09,604 --> 00:27:11,240
McRANEY
I want to know where
you've been all night.
442
00:27:11,340 --> 00:27:14,409
And don't tell me the Midnight
Madness sale at Toys"R"Us.
443
00:27:14,509 --> 00:27:16,245
Oh, I'm sorry
if we worried you, sir,
444
00:27:16,345 --> 00:27:18,280
but Amanda and I
were having such a good time
445
00:27:18,347 --> 00:27:19,849
that we-we didn't realize
how late it was.
446
00:27:19,949 --> 00:27:21,350
Oh.
447
00:27:21,450 --> 00:27:23,185
And sunrise
didn't give you a clue?
448
00:27:23,318 --> 00:27:25,487
- Hello?
449
00:27:25,587 --> 00:27:27,089
I demand to know
what you two have been...
450
00:27:27,189 --> 00:27:29,358
Linda, please.
451
00:27:30,659 --> 00:27:32,661
- Oh, Jesus.
452
00:27:33,628 --> 00:27:35,664
Monica.
453
00:27:38,433 --> 00:27:40,535
I'll meet you at your place.
454
00:27:43,305 --> 00:27:44,706
I'll be back in a few.
455
00:27:44,807 --> 00:27:46,809
What is going on with her?
She calls constantly...
456
00:27:46,876 --> 00:27:48,143
She's in a bad situation.
457
00:27:48,210 --> 00:27:49,311
She needs a friend.
458
00:27:57,619 --> 00:27:59,354
Oh, no. Oh.
459
00:28:00,790 --> 00:28:02,057
Mm.
460
00:28:02,157 --> 00:28:03,325
He said
461
00:28:03,392 --> 00:28:06,495
he still wanted to be friends
and then, uh...
462
00:28:06,561 --> 00:28:09,564
Tony Blair called
and he gave me a hug
463
00:28:09,698 --> 00:28:13,068
and I left and I sobbed
on Pennsylvania Avenue.
464
00:28:14,837 --> 00:28:16,471
What do you think it means?
465
00:28:16,571 --> 00:28:18,073
I'm fucking dumped.
466
00:28:19,041 --> 00:28:21,643
I've only been suffering at
the Pentagon because I thought
467
00:28:21,743 --> 00:28:23,478
I was going back
to the White House.
468
00:28:23,578 --> 00:28:24,914
Wait, did he say
you're not going back?
469
00:28:25,047 --> 00:28:26,381
Like everything else with Bill,
470
00:28:26,481 --> 00:28:27,749
that's not exactly up to me.
471
00:28:27,883 --> 00:28:30,485
He can't do this to you.
472
00:28:30,585 --> 00:28:32,654
This is the same thing
they did to me.
473
00:28:32,754 --> 00:28:33,889
You know what though?
474
00:28:35,390 --> 00:28:37,827
I actually kind of respect him
more after today.
475
00:28:37,927 --> 00:28:41,596
He was so open about
his struggle to stay faithful.
476
00:28:41,696 --> 00:28:44,766
Monica, listen to yourself.
477
00:28:44,867 --> 00:28:46,501
What? He's in a lot of pain.
478
00:28:46,601 --> 00:28:47,837
You're in a lot of pain.
479
00:28:47,937 --> 00:28:50,940
He chose to start a relationship
with an intern,
480
00:28:51,073 --> 00:28:53,943
which got you kicked out
of the White House.
481
00:28:54,043 --> 00:28:56,178
And then he strung you along
for an eternity.
482
00:28:56,278 --> 00:28:58,680
And then he dumps you
and you're supposed to be fine?
483
00:28:58,780 --> 00:29:00,182
No.
484
00:29:00,282 --> 00:29:01,616
Absolutely not.
485
00:29:01,716 --> 00:29:04,253
This has been a calamity
for you professionally.
486
00:29:05,220 --> 00:29:06,521
You're not dating anymore,
487
00:29:06,621 --> 00:29:09,391
he has to bring you back
at least.
488
00:29:09,458 --> 00:29:10,960
He has to.
489
00:29:11,093 --> 00:29:13,362
He has the power to do that
in five minutes.
490
00:29:13,462 --> 00:29:16,098
How do I ask him to do that?
491
00:29:16,198 --> 00:29:18,033
You can write him a letter.
492
00:29:24,739 --> 00:29:26,608
Okay.
493
00:29:32,982 --> 00:29:34,383
This is too polite.
494
00:29:34,483 --> 00:29:36,818
You should start
with something that, uh,
495
00:29:36,952 --> 00:29:39,421
makes it clear how you feel.
496
00:29:39,488 --> 00:29:40,755
Okay.
497
00:29:43,458 --> 00:29:44,927
"I feel..."
498
00:29:45,928 --> 00:29:47,162
I don't know.
499
00:29:50,933 --> 00:29:52,567
Disposable.
500
00:29:53,835 --> 00:29:55,404
Insignificant.
501
00:29:55,504 --> 00:29:57,672
Used.
502
00:30:01,243 --> 00:30:02,444
Good.
503
00:30:03,412 --> 00:30:05,847
"I feel disposable, used
504
00:30:05,981 --> 00:30:07,516
"and insignificant.
505
00:30:07,649 --> 00:30:09,351
"I understand
your hands are tied
506
00:30:09,484 --> 00:30:11,753
but I need to discuss
my employment situation with..."
507
00:30:11,853 --> 00:30:13,588
You know what?
This has to be tougher.
508
00:30:13,688 --> 00:30:15,690
Otherwise,
he's just gonna bring you in,
509
00:30:15,824 --> 00:30:18,193
smile and tell you
what you want to hear.
510
00:30:18,327 --> 00:30:20,029
"I was a good girl
511
00:30:20,162 --> 00:30:22,531
"when I was sent
to the Pentagon.
512
00:30:22,631 --> 00:30:24,033
"I waited patiently
because I believed
513
00:30:24,133 --> 00:30:25,867
"I would return
to the White House.
514
00:30:26,001 --> 00:30:27,702
"If that does not happen
515
00:30:27,836 --> 00:30:30,672
I'm going to have to explain
to my parents why."
516
00:30:30,772 --> 00:30:33,375
I-I can't give him that.
It'll make him upset.
517
00:30:33,508 --> 00:30:35,810
How many times has he upset you?
518
00:30:43,218 --> 00:30:46,188
I'd say it's about time.
519
00:30:52,962 --> 00:30:56,231
Wow.
Very All the President's Men.
520
00:30:56,365 --> 00:30:58,233
This is fantastic.
521
00:30:58,333 --> 00:31:00,135
Wh-Why did you want to see me?
522
00:31:00,235 --> 00:31:01,903
Oh, I'm a big fan of yours.
523
00:31:02,004 --> 00:31:04,739
You know, most reporters
like you avoid the sex beat.
524
00:31:04,839 --> 00:31:06,075
I'm not on the sex beat.
525
00:31:06,175 --> 00:31:07,476
I-I write about abuse of power.
526
00:31:07,576 --> 00:31:10,412
Sex is one way
this president goes about that.
527
00:31:10,512 --> 00:31:11,413
Gotcha.
528
00:31:11,513 --> 00:31:13,915
Roger that. It's too true.
529
00:31:15,250 --> 00:31:17,319
Can I ask, is...
530
00:31:17,419 --> 00:31:18,988
is this for real?
531
00:31:19,088 --> 00:31:22,257
The voice. The... costume.
532
00:31:23,492 --> 00:31:25,527
When I was a kid,
533
00:31:25,594 --> 00:31:28,263
my heroes were
the provocative press of yore.
534
00:31:28,363 --> 00:31:31,266
Back when hacks had a knife
and knew how to use it.
535
00:31:31,366 --> 00:31:34,603
So I got to wondering, "Whatever
happened to newsmen like that?"
536
00:31:34,703 --> 00:31:35,837
So I became one.
537
00:31:35,937 --> 00:31:39,774
Without a degree in,
I don't know, journalism?
538
00:31:39,874 --> 00:31:41,776
I can see why you'd say that.
539
00:31:41,876 --> 00:31:44,613
Most people here went to
the same fancy colleges, right?
540
00:31:44,713 --> 00:31:45,780
Must have been nice.
541
00:31:45,914 --> 00:31:47,449
You know where I went
after high school?
542
00:31:47,582 --> 00:31:48,850
7-Eleven.
543
00:31:48,950 --> 00:31:51,286
I got shut out of that game.
I couldn't afford it.
544
00:31:51,420 --> 00:31:54,089
And then, one day, I buy a modem
545
00:31:54,189 --> 00:31:57,392
and the whole news business
cracks right open.
546
00:31:57,459 --> 00:31:59,794
I don't know
that unsourced Internet gossip
547
00:31:59,894 --> 00:32:01,130
has cracked open
the news business.
548
00:32:02,797 --> 00:32:04,266
Well, you're probably right.
549
00:32:04,366 --> 00:32:05,467
You're probably right.
550
00:32:06,468 --> 00:32:08,770
Speaking of gossip,
551
00:32:08,870 --> 00:32:10,972
I heard
you're working on a new story
552
00:32:11,106 --> 00:32:13,042
about another woman
our dear leader harassed.
553
00:32:13,142 --> 00:32:15,477
Where... Who...
554
00:32:15,577 --> 00:32:17,646
Who told you that?
555
00:32:22,884 --> 00:32:24,619
Gossip.
556
00:32:27,656 --> 00:32:30,159
Remember, no tears.
557
00:32:38,100 --> 00:32:40,001
I have three things
to say to you.
558
00:32:40,102 --> 00:32:42,171
First, it is illegal
559
00:32:42,304 --> 00:32:43,672
to threaten the president
560
00:32:43,805 --> 00:32:45,840
- of the United Sta...
- I wasn't threatening.
561
00:32:45,974 --> 00:32:47,942
I told you things
I haven't bared to anyone.
562
00:32:48,009 --> 00:32:50,179
To have that honesty
used against me like this,
563
00:32:50,279 --> 00:32:51,680
when you sat here
and told me you understood...
564
00:32:51,780 --> 00:32:53,148
- What do you mean? I...
- What do you think
565
00:32:53,248 --> 00:32:55,684
my fucking life is like?
566
00:32:55,817 --> 00:32:58,187
Do you think what I need
in my day is a nasty letter
567
00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:00,522
that conveys nothing
but disrespect and ingratitude?
568
00:33:00,655 --> 00:33:01,756
What exactly am I supposed
569
00:33:01,856 --> 00:33:03,525
- to be grateful for?
- Lower your voice.
570
00:33:03,625 --> 00:33:04,859
You promised
you would bring me back,
571
00:33:04,959 --> 00:33:06,428
and then
you barely even called me.
572
00:33:06,528 --> 00:33:07,929
So I just sat
in my apartment alone,
573
00:33:08,029 --> 00:33:10,699
just waiting for you
and waiting for you.
574
00:33:10,832 --> 00:33:12,101
Do you know
what those nights were like?
575
00:33:12,201 --> 00:33:13,535
Monica,
576
00:33:13,668 --> 00:33:15,704
I was running for president.
577
00:33:15,837 --> 00:33:18,707
That does nothing to explain
why you lied to my face.
578
00:33:21,343 --> 00:33:24,446
Ask me how many days
I just sat there,
579
00:33:24,546 --> 00:33:27,382
thinking I was so stupid
to believe you.
580
00:33:27,482 --> 00:33:29,951
But I was stuck in this loop...
581
00:33:30,051 --> 00:33:32,454
thinking, "This will
be the moment it'll ring
582
00:33:32,554 --> 00:33:34,123
and it'll be you,
because you promised."
583
00:33:34,223 --> 00:33:36,325
And then just when I was ready
to give it all up,
584
00:33:36,391 --> 00:33:37,526
you call me back in.
585
00:33:37,626 --> 00:33:39,228
But it's not
to give me my job back--
586
00:33:39,328 --> 00:33:41,363
it's just to use me up
a few more times,
587
00:33:41,463 --> 00:33:43,798
like I'm a worthless...
588
00:33:43,898 --> 00:33:45,667
No, that is not true,
and you know it.
589
00:33:45,734 --> 00:33:47,569
No, I-I don't ever,
590
00:33:47,702 --> 00:33:49,171
ever want you to think that.
591
00:33:49,238 --> 00:33:50,839
That is not what you are to me.
592
00:33:50,905 --> 00:33:53,375
I'm not supposed to cry.
593
00:33:53,475 --> 00:33:55,410
It's okay.
594
00:33:55,544 --> 00:33:58,547
You know?
You're-you're just like me.
595
00:33:58,647 --> 00:34:00,048
You know? We feel things deeply.
596
00:34:00,149 --> 00:34:02,317
We can't keep 'em inside.
597
00:34:02,417 --> 00:34:04,586
I wish it was different.
598
00:34:04,719 --> 00:34:06,721
I wish I had more time for you.
599
00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:14,896
I'm-I'm sorry
I was so crazy in that letter.
600
00:34:14,996 --> 00:34:18,267
I've been waiting
to come back here for so long.
601
00:34:18,367 --> 00:34:19,434
I know.
602
00:34:20,435 --> 00:34:24,105
I'll... help
with the job situation.
603
00:34:25,106 --> 00:34:27,676
But no more of this, okay?
604
00:34:31,213 --> 00:34:33,114
Are we friends?
605
00:34:37,051 --> 00:34:38,953
Of course.
606
00:34:40,522 --> 00:34:42,624
And there's Betty,
607
00:34:42,724 --> 00:34:44,359
here to tell you
it's time to talk
608
00:34:44,459 --> 00:34:47,196
to the premier of Uzbekistan
or something.
609
00:34:49,130 --> 00:34:51,032
I almost forgot.
A reporter at Newsweek
610
00:34:51,132 --> 00:34:54,536
asked my friend from work
to comment on a story.
611
00:34:54,636 --> 00:34:56,971
Some crazy woman said
you harassed her.
612
00:34:59,274 --> 00:35:01,075
Is her name...
613
00:35:01,142 --> 00:35:02,777
Kathleen Willey?
614
00:35:03,778 --> 00:35:04,879
Yeah, I think it is.
615
00:35:04,979 --> 00:35:06,915
She called here.
616
00:35:08,149 --> 00:35:10,319
She made it sound like Newsweek
was chasing her down,
617
00:35:10,452 --> 00:35:12,421
trying to get her to say things.
618
00:35:17,091 --> 00:35:18,827
Oh, Jesus Christ.
619
00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:21,162
Colleen,
what's going on with this?
620
00:35:21,296 --> 00:35:22,831
The colors are wacko.
621
00:35:22,964 --> 00:35:25,834
The yellows didn't come through,
and it-it looks off.
622
00:35:25,967 --> 00:35:27,836
I know. FSD is coming to...
623
00:35:27,969 --> 00:35:31,005
I have to hand this
to Gerald McRaney in 20 hours.
624
00:35:31,105 --> 00:35:32,073
I'm flying blind.
625
00:35:32,173 --> 00:35:34,843
Tomorrow is too late.
626
00:35:42,183 --> 00:35:43,184
How did it go?
627
00:35:43,285 --> 00:35:44,185
Don't be mad.
628
00:35:44,319 --> 00:35:45,520
What?
629
00:35:45,620 --> 00:35:47,989
I kind of talked to him
about Kathleen Willey.
630
00:35:49,624 --> 00:35:51,192
You told him?
631
00:35:51,326 --> 00:35:52,761
- Yes. I'm sorry.
- Monica,
632
00:35:52,861 --> 00:35:54,028
did you tell him my name?
633
00:35:54,128 --> 00:35:56,197
Because I cannot get pulled
into this.
634
00:35:56,298 --> 00:35:58,199
- They already know who I am.
- I know, I know.
635
00:35:58,300 --> 00:36:00,635
- I didn't talk to him about you.
Don't get so excited.
- Well...
636
00:36:00,702 --> 00:36:02,971
- I'm not excited.
- Can you just listen to me?
637
00:36:03,037 --> 00:36:04,473
There is something weird
going on.
638
00:36:04,539 --> 00:36:07,208
Because he already knew
about Kathleen and Newsweek.
639
00:36:07,342 --> 00:36:09,544
What do you mean
he already knew?
640
00:36:09,678 --> 00:36:11,780
- Is Isikoff talking to them?
- No.
641
00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:14,215
Kathleen Willey called
the White House,
642
00:36:14,316 --> 00:36:16,518
and she's telling
an entirely different story.
643
00:36:22,357 --> 00:36:23,825
Linda.
644
00:36:23,892 --> 00:36:25,394
Linda.
645
00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:47,416
Oh. Linda.
646
00:36:47,549 --> 00:36:51,052
You can go ahead right now and
tell me what your game is here.
647
00:36:51,152 --> 00:36:52,321
Is this about Michael Isikoff?
648
00:36:52,421 --> 00:36:54,255
'Cause I told him
to stop bothering you.
649
00:36:57,091 --> 00:36:59,093
You're talking
to the White House.
650
00:36:59,227 --> 00:37:00,495
Why?
651
00:37:04,899 --> 00:37:07,101
How do you know that?
652
00:37:07,201 --> 00:37:08,870
I can't say.
653
00:37:09,904 --> 00:37:11,673
What's going on?
654
00:37:11,773 --> 00:37:13,107
I know it doesn't make
any sense,
655
00:37:13,241 --> 00:37:14,776
but Isikoff called.
656
00:37:14,909 --> 00:37:16,945
He knew things.
657
00:37:17,045 --> 00:37:21,115
A-And we talked
about the incident.
658
00:37:21,249 --> 00:37:24,386
And then later I felt scared
and I called Bruce Lindsey.
659
00:37:24,453 --> 00:37:26,555
I was just trying
to protect myself.
660
00:37:26,621 --> 00:37:28,890
- I didn't want them
to come after me.
- You don't have
661
00:37:28,957 --> 00:37:31,125
to remind me what
the Clintons are capable of.
662
00:37:31,259 --> 00:37:32,226
So you understand.
663
00:37:32,293 --> 00:37:34,896
No, actually, I don't.
664
00:37:34,963 --> 00:37:36,631
This is inane.
665
00:37:36,765 --> 00:37:39,768
And in no universe will
my distaste for this president
666
00:37:39,868 --> 00:37:42,371
make me participate
in your charade,
667
00:37:42,471 --> 00:37:44,373
as though you're a victim
668
00:37:44,473 --> 00:37:47,141
- of some sort of atrocity.
669
00:37:47,275 --> 00:37:49,644
My integrity matters.
670
00:37:51,212 --> 00:37:53,415
How could I be so dumb?
671
00:37:55,650 --> 00:37:56,885
What do you mean?
672
00:37:56,985 --> 00:37:57,919
I worked with you
673
00:37:57,986 --> 00:37:59,554
for almost two years,
674
00:37:59,654 --> 00:38:00,889
and, somehow,
675
00:38:00,989 --> 00:38:02,391
I forgot who you are.
676
00:38:02,491 --> 00:38:04,493
You love this.
677
00:38:04,593 --> 00:38:06,661
You love the drama.
678
00:38:06,795 --> 00:38:09,731
You love having a Newsweek
reporter come by your desk,
679
00:38:09,831 --> 00:38:11,132
telling him you don't believe me
680
00:38:11,232 --> 00:38:13,468
and somehow making it
all about you.
681
00:38:13,568 --> 00:38:16,304
This is exactly where
you want to be--
682
00:38:16,405 --> 00:38:18,673
in someone else's business,
in my business.
683
00:38:18,807 --> 00:38:20,409
Because in your own life,
684
00:38:20,509 --> 00:38:23,845
there's absolutely nothing.
685
00:38:27,348 --> 00:38:30,585
I feel sad for you.
686
00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:34,489
I truly do.
687
00:38:56,044 --> 00:38:57,879
If I had known all I had to do
to see you more
688
00:38:57,979 --> 00:38:59,881
was break up with you, I would
have dumped you months ago.
689
00:39:00,014 --> 00:39:02,884
Your friend at work,
is her name Linda Tripp?
690
00:39:04,486 --> 00:39:05,654
Yeah. How did you know that?
691
00:39:05,720 --> 00:39:08,322
Do you trust Linda Tripp?
692
00:39:08,389 --> 00:39:09,791
Yes.
693
00:39:09,891 --> 00:39:11,726
Have you told her about us?
694
00:39:11,826 --> 00:39:13,495
No.
695
00:39:15,564 --> 00:39:17,065
Kathleen called again.
696
00:39:18,366 --> 00:39:20,535
Somehow, word got back
697
00:39:20,635 --> 00:39:23,572
that she's talking to us
about the Newsweek article.
698
00:39:25,740 --> 00:39:29,043
I'm just wondering
how that might have happened.
699
00:39:33,081 --> 00:39:34,082
Do me a favor.
700
00:39:34,215 --> 00:39:36,417
Have Linda Tripp give us a call.
701
00:39:36,551 --> 00:39:38,419
She can, uh,
reach out to Bruce Lindsey
702
00:39:38,520 --> 00:39:40,388
up in the Counsel's Office.
703
00:39:43,191 --> 00:39:46,595
Betty'll call you tomorrow
to follow up on that, okay?
704
00:39:46,728 --> 00:39:48,563
Thanks.
705
00:40:08,750 --> 00:40:10,284
Hey, Bob.
706
00:40:12,053 --> 00:40:15,924
I think we should talk
about settling with Paula Jones.
707
00:40:30,238 --> 00:40:32,140
Hey.
708
00:40:32,240 --> 00:40:33,808
Not now. I'm crazed.
709
00:40:33,908 --> 00:40:35,476
Okay, but have you thought
about, um,
710
00:40:35,577 --> 00:40:37,145
just trying Bruce Lindsey's
office just one more time?
711
00:40:37,245 --> 00:40:39,981
- Just...
- Is this coming
from the big creep?
712
00:40:40,114 --> 00:40:41,482
Did you talk to him again?
713
00:40:41,616 --> 00:40:42,984
No. I just think
it would be a great idea.
714
00:40:43,117 --> 00:40:44,919
Well, I remind you,
I did contact Bruce Lindsey.
715
00:40:44,986 --> 00:40:46,788
Apparently, I'm not important
enough to get a reply.
716
00:40:46,888 --> 00:40:48,990
- But I think, this time,
it will be different.
- If they want to call me,
717
00:40:49,090 --> 00:40:51,125
they know where I work.
I'm sorry, Monica,
718
00:40:51,225 --> 00:40:52,661
I have to finish this.
719
00:40:52,794 --> 00:40:56,164
Gerald McRaney's plane lands
in less than two hours.
720
00:41:07,008 --> 00:41:08,409
Your story's up.
721
00:41:08,509 --> 00:41:10,679
What do you mean it's up?
722
00:41:14,683 --> 00:41:16,184
Sorry, buddy.
723
00:41:24,859 --> 00:41:26,695
Go for Drudge.
724
00:41:26,795 --> 00:41:28,863
What are you doing?
725
00:41:28,997 --> 00:41:30,531
I'm just reporting the news.
726
00:41:30,665 --> 00:41:32,200
This is my news,
727
00:41:32,333 --> 00:41:34,035
news I'm still working on.
728
00:41:34,135 --> 00:41:35,203
Look, it's nothing personal.
729
00:41:35,336 --> 00:41:37,872
I saw a great scoop
and so I went for it.
730
00:41:37,972 --> 00:41:40,541
It's not even a story yet.
731
00:41:40,642 --> 00:41:42,977
Well, the fact that
you're working on it is a story.
732
00:41:43,044 --> 00:41:43,978
No, it's not.
733
00:41:44,045 --> 00:41:46,547
All you have is unsourced fluff.
734
00:41:46,648 --> 00:41:48,049
I-It's a rumor.
735
00:41:48,149 --> 00:41:50,551
It's just Internet gossip.
736
00:41:50,652 --> 00:41:52,621
It's worthless.
737
00:41:52,721 --> 00:41:55,857
Then why are you so upset?
738
00:42:06,735 --> 00:42:08,903
Oh. Linda. Mm.
739
00:42:09,003 --> 00:42:09,971
Sorry to do this.
740
00:42:10,071 --> 00:42:11,906
Um, I just got a call.
741
00:42:12,040 --> 00:42:14,342
McRaney's stuck on the Hill
in something,
742
00:42:14,408 --> 00:42:17,912
so he's not gonna have time
for that tour today after all.
743
00:42:18,046 --> 00:42:19,047
Oh.
744
00:42:19,147 --> 00:42:20,581
Yeah. W-Well, but...
745
00:42:20,715 --> 00:42:23,251
thank you
for throwing it together.
746
00:42:23,351 --> 00:42:25,419
You are a trooper.
747
00:42:25,519 --> 00:42:27,588
Anyway... yeah, let's go.
748
00:43:15,737 --> 00:43:16,871
JCOC.
749
00:43:16,971 --> 00:43:18,807
Linda Tripp speaking.
750
00:43:18,907 --> 00:43:20,374
It's Harvey.
751
00:43:21,542 --> 00:43:23,644
Why are you calling me here?
752
00:43:23,745 --> 00:43:25,814
Have you seen Drudge?
753
00:43:41,996 --> 00:43:43,898
Oh, my.
754
00:43:45,834 --> 00:43:47,335
Did you leak this?
755
00:43:47,468 --> 00:43:50,772
What? He stole my story.
756
00:43:50,839 --> 00:43:52,073
Okay, Harvey,
757
00:43:52,173 --> 00:43:54,408
you must calm down.
758
00:43:54,508 --> 00:43:56,177
Listen, I have to have someone
on the record
759
00:43:56,277 --> 00:43:57,746
so I can publish now.
760
00:43:57,846 --> 00:43:59,180
Kathleen's not returning
my calls.
761
00:43:59,313 --> 00:44:00,414
I-I need you.
762
00:44:00,514 --> 00:44:02,183
- Please.
-I've made it very plain.
763
00:44:02,283 --> 00:44:03,918
I don't want to get involved.
764
00:44:04,018 --> 00:44:06,320
We're talking
about an incendiary story,
765
00:44:06,420 --> 00:44:07,488
and you are asking me
766
00:44:07,588 --> 00:44:09,457
to put my name in print. It...
767
00:44:10,658 --> 00:44:12,493
It boggles the mind.
768
00:44:18,332 --> 00:44:20,301
But...
769
00:44:20,368 --> 00:44:23,037
let me see what I can do.
770
00:44:24,205 --> 00:44:26,007
Unfortunately, I am very busy.
771
00:44:26,107 --> 00:44:29,210
You don't know what it's like
over here at DoD. It's...
772
00:44:29,343 --> 00:44:30,879
-mania.
773
00:44:33,181 --> 00:44:34,382
Okay.
774
00:44:34,515 --> 00:44:35,549
You know what?
775
00:44:36,617 --> 00:44:38,186
Sunday,
776
00:44:38,286 --> 00:44:39,821
3:00 p.m.
777
00:44:39,888 --> 00:44:41,890
Take down this address.
778
00:44:55,669 --> 00:44:57,738
Hi. Can we help you today?
779
00:44:57,839 --> 00:45:00,208
Hi. My name is... Harvey.
780
00:45:00,308 --> 00:45:02,543
I'm here to see Linda.
781
00:45:02,643 --> 00:45:06,147
Oh. That's right. Yeah, she's,
um, just around the corner.
782
00:45:13,254 --> 00:45:14,588
Right on time.
783
00:45:14,688 --> 00:45:16,190
This is too public.
784
00:45:16,257 --> 00:45:18,092
I need to get quotes from you.
785
00:45:18,192 --> 00:45:19,160
Oh, it's fine.
786
00:45:19,260 --> 00:45:21,495
He doesn't speak
a word of English.
787
00:45:23,264 --> 00:45:24,165
Okay.
788
00:45:25,599 --> 00:45:27,836
So, if you could tell me
about the afternoon...
789
00:45:27,936 --> 00:45:31,105
The image of that day
is crystal clear in my mind.
790
00:45:31,205 --> 00:45:34,275
I was walking near the Oval
when I saw Kathleen.
791
00:45:34,375 --> 00:45:35,509
She was...
792
00:45:35,609 --> 00:45:38,947
flustered but excited.
793
00:45:39,047 --> 00:45:40,581
Happy, even.
794
00:45:40,681 --> 00:45:44,452
I noticed immediately that
her hair was slightly askew.
795
00:45:44,552 --> 00:45:46,620
Her lipstick was off. And...
796
00:45:46,720 --> 00:45:47,956
she later told me
what had happened.
797
00:45:48,056 --> 00:45:50,191
The president had taken her
to a small hideaway
798
00:45:50,291 --> 00:45:53,394
off the Oval
and he'd kissed her.
799
00:45:53,461 --> 00:45:56,730
And there was... some touching
over the clothes.
800
00:45:56,797 --> 00:45:59,133
- She told you this when?
- That day.
801
00:45:59,233 --> 00:46:02,036
This was not a case
of sexual harassment,
802
00:46:02,136 --> 00:46:04,605
and she was not in any way
appalled.
803
00:46:04,705 --> 00:46:06,975
You can quote me on that.
804
00:46:07,108 --> 00:46:10,444
Right. We agreed all of this
is on the record, so...
805
00:46:10,544 --> 00:46:14,048
Wh-Why do you think
she now feels differently?
806
00:46:14,148 --> 00:46:15,783
I can't say.
807
00:46:16,750 --> 00:46:18,752
My heart does go out to her.
808
00:46:18,819 --> 00:46:19,888
She's widowed now.
809
00:46:19,988 --> 00:46:21,990
She feels alone.
810
00:46:22,090 --> 00:46:24,993
Things have not worked out
the way she wanted in life.
811
00:46:25,093 --> 00:46:27,595
So what is she doing?
She's reaching out to you.
812
00:46:27,661 --> 00:46:28,997
She's reaching out to everyone.
813
00:46:29,130 --> 00:46:31,465
She's inserting herself.
814
00:46:31,565 --> 00:46:33,067
She wants to matter.
815
00:46:33,167 --> 00:46:36,004
- It's... very sad.
- Mm.
816
00:46:36,137 --> 00:46:38,139
Okay, dear.
817
00:46:38,239 --> 00:46:39,240
To the dryer now.
818
00:46:39,340 --> 00:46:41,342
This is all great. Thank you.
819
00:46:41,442 --> 00:46:43,077
Wait.
820
00:46:43,177 --> 00:46:45,346
- That's it?
- Yep.
821
00:46:45,479 --> 00:46:47,015
What do we do next?
822
00:46:47,148 --> 00:46:49,250
Well, I'll call the White House
for comment,
823
00:46:49,350 --> 00:46:51,920
the president's lawyer
will deny it and...
824
00:46:52,020 --> 00:46:53,687
then we publish next week.
825
00:46:53,787 --> 00:46:56,757
Anyway, it was nice to meet you,
Linda. I appreciate your help.
826
00:46:56,857 --> 00:46:59,360
There was a question
you could have asked.
827
00:46:59,493 --> 00:47:01,595
You didn't ask it.
828
00:47:01,695 --> 00:47:02,796
What?
829
00:47:03,831 --> 00:47:07,501
You're looking through
a keyhole, Isikoff.
830
00:47:07,601 --> 00:47:10,371
There's a larger context
to this.
831
00:47:10,471 --> 00:47:12,173
Much larger.
832
00:47:13,141 --> 00:47:15,276
Off the record.
833
00:47:19,380 --> 00:47:21,950
I started in the West Wing
under Bush.
834
00:47:22,050 --> 00:47:24,452
And when Clinton came in, I...
835
00:47:24,552 --> 00:47:26,054
I wanted to respect him.
836
00:47:26,154 --> 00:47:28,122
But what I saw
837
00:47:28,222 --> 00:47:29,890
shocked me to my core.
838
00:47:29,991 --> 00:47:31,859
He uses women like paper towels.
839
00:47:31,960 --> 00:47:33,727
- I know.
- No,
840
00:47:33,827 --> 00:47:35,529
you don't.
841
00:47:35,629 --> 00:47:37,198
You don't know the half of it.
842
00:47:37,298 --> 00:47:38,566
What I've been a party to--
843
00:47:38,666 --> 00:47:41,735
and I mean recently--
goes beyond Kathleen,
844
00:47:41,835 --> 00:47:43,371
beyond Paula Jones.
845
00:47:43,471 --> 00:47:44,738
It's beyond imagining.
846
00:47:44,872 --> 00:47:46,640
What-what are you talking about?
847
00:47:46,740 --> 00:47:48,476
There's a woman right now.
848
00:47:48,576 --> 00:47:50,244
A woman I'm very close to.
849
00:47:50,378 --> 00:47:53,147
She's young.
850
00:47:53,247 --> 00:47:55,683
Younger than I've ever known him
to go.
851
00:47:55,749 --> 00:47:58,686
I'm talking just a few years
older than Chelsea.
852
00:47:58,752 --> 00:48:00,588
Who is she?
853
00:48:01,589 --> 00:48:02,590
I can't tell you that.
854
00:48:02,723 --> 00:48:03,924
Does she work for him?
855
00:48:04,025 --> 00:48:05,759
She was a White House intern
when it started.
856
00:48:05,859 --> 00:48:08,396
- This is sexual harassment.
- No.
857
00:48:08,496 --> 00:48:10,398
It's an affair.
858
00:48:10,498 --> 00:48:13,734
He's subjecting her
to emotional torture.
859
00:48:14,702 --> 00:48:15,836
She's in love with him.
860
00:48:15,936 --> 00:48:17,771
She'll never talk.
861
00:48:17,905 --> 00:48:18,939
Ah.
862
00:48:19,073 --> 00:48:21,009
That's very good gossip.
863
00:48:21,109 --> 00:48:22,776
No, it's not gossip.
864
00:48:22,876 --> 00:48:25,346
You should see
what this girl is going through.
865
00:48:25,446 --> 00:48:26,347
If she's not gonna talk,
866
00:48:26,447 --> 00:48:27,848
- there's no story.
- What?
867
00:48:27,948 --> 00:48:29,383
Of course there is.
868
00:48:29,450 --> 00:48:31,685
You have no idea
how inappropriate...
869
00:48:31,785 --> 00:48:33,954
Michael Isikoff?
870
00:48:34,055 --> 00:48:36,457
You will go anywhere
for a story, won't you?
871
00:48:36,590 --> 00:48:38,426
Oh. No, uh, this is...
872
00:48:38,526 --> 00:48:39,760
We're cousins.
873
00:48:39,860 --> 00:48:41,929
Oh.
Thought for a moment
874
00:48:42,030 --> 00:48:43,964
this was
the mysterious Kathleen Willey.
875
00:48:44,065 --> 00:48:45,699
Far from.
876
00:48:45,799 --> 00:48:47,135
I'm Harriet.
877
00:48:47,268 --> 00:48:49,403
Anne Farris.
I work at the Washington Post.
878
00:48:49,470 --> 00:48:51,905
I actually was just leaving.
879
00:48:51,972 --> 00:48:53,641
It was good to see you, Anne.
I'll...
880
00:48:53,741 --> 00:48:56,410
talk to you soon.
881
00:48:56,477 --> 00:48:58,646
He's a wonderful guy.
882
00:48:58,746 --> 00:49:00,981
He's a fabulous cousin to me.
883
00:49:10,391 --> 00:49:12,993
Listen, I don't think it's
appropriate for the president
884
00:49:13,094 --> 00:49:15,329
of the United States
to get down in the gutter,
885
00:49:15,429 --> 00:49:17,165
where Ms. Jones
wants to drag him.
886
00:49:17,265 --> 00:49:19,667
I think he would see
a settlement as something
887
00:49:19,800 --> 00:49:22,770
to be done
for the good of the nation.
888
00:49:22,836 --> 00:49:26,340
- I feel like I just watched
the Challenger explode.
889
00:49:26,440 --> 00:49:29,243
- That's a bit out-of-bounds.
- It's not
890
00:49:29,343 --> 00:49:31,745
a joke, Jerome.
This is a disaster.
891
00:49:31,845 --> 00:49:33,181
Her lawyers want a deal.
892
00:49:33,281 --> 00:49:35,816
- They just do.
- Great.
893
00:49:35,916 --> 00:49:38,352
Great.
So the law lets him slide.
894
00:49:38,486 --> 00:49:40,488
The press lets him slide.
895
00:49:40,588 --> 00:49:42,590
What a disgrace.
896
00:49:42,690 --> 00:49:44,925
Being the president used
to mean something.
897
00:49:45,025 --> 00:49:48,262
Even Nixon was capable of shame.
898
00:49:48,362 --> 00:49:52,700
But after this, just think
what kind of flabby con men
899
00:49:52,800 --> 00:49:54,868
will see a path
to the White House.
900
00:49:55,002 --> 00:49:57,205
The corruption.
901
00:49:57,338 --> 00:49:59,107
The lies.
902
00:49:59,207 --> 00:50:01,942
The hundred million
cocktail waitresses he's groped
903
00:50:02,042 --> 00:50:03,111
or worse.
904
00:50:03,211 --> 00:50:04,545
If we let this slide...
905
00:50:04,645 --> 00:50:06,314
We're not letting this slide.
906
00:50:06,380 --> 00:50:08,716
Then we stop the settlement.
907
00:50:10,851 --> 00:50:12,386
Whatever it takes.
908
00:50:30,904 --> 00:50:32,740
Uh-huh.
909
00:50:32,840 --> 00:50:34,742
So, um...
910
00:50:36,910 --> 00:50:37,911
Just got 'em.
911
00:50:39,012 --> 00:50:40,748
I'll take two.
912
00:50:40,848 --> 00:50:41,915
Three.
913
00:50:42,916 --> 00:50:44,352
Three.
914
00:51:49,950 --> 00:51:50,984
Oh.
915
00:51:51,118 --> 00:51:52,286
Where's Paula?
916
00:51:52,386 --> 00:51:53,954
Ladies' room.
917
00:51:54,054 --> 00:51:56,224
Hurry up and wait, right?
918
00:52:03,163 --> 00:52:05,499
Not that I was surprised
to get the call.
919
00:52:05,599 --> 00:52:07,235
I knew he'd try to settle.
920
00:52:07,335 --> 00:52:09,002
If I'm Bill Clinton,
921
00:52:09,102 --> 00:52:12,139
I'm more than a little worried
about the dirty laundry
922
00:52:12,240 --> 00:52:13,807
this case might turn up.
923
00:52:13,907 --> 00:52:16,143
Should be a good offer then.
924
00:52:16,244 --> 00:52:17,144
Oh, should be.
925
00:52:17,245 --> 00:52:18,512
Better than good.
926
00:52:18,646 --> 00:52:22,983
Money won't be real to him
anyway. Mm.
927
00:52:24,918 --> 00:52:27,288
Well, you see, this is what
no one ever tells you.
928
00:52:27,355 --> 00:52:29,022
Politician like that,
929
00:52:29,156 --> 00:52:31,525
he has
big general liability policies.
930
00:52:31,659 --> 00:52:34,194
If you settle, you get a check
from an insurance company.
931
00:52:34,295 --> 00:52:35,529
He won't pay a dime.
932
00:52:35,629 --> 00:52:37,698
And I hate to say it, but...
933
00:52:37,831 --> 00:52:40,301
Oh.
Never mind.
934
00:52:40,368 --> 00:52:42,202
No, what?
935
00:52:44,171 --> 00:52:46,440
If she accepts his offer,
936
00:52:46,540 --> 00:52:48,876
I-I do worry
there could be whispers.
937
00:52:48,976 --> 00:52:50,444
Mm. "She won
the Supreme Court case.
938
00:52:50,544 --> 00:52:53,180
Why would she let him off easy?"
939
00:52:53,281 --> 00:52:54,715
Fair or not,
940
00:52:54,848 --> 00:52:56,884
people will always...
941
00:52:57,017 --> 00:53:00,554
wonder what really happened
in that hotel room.
942
00:53:02,490 --> 00:53:03,957
Ah!
943
00:53:04,057 --> 00:53:05,393
Oh.
944
00:53:05,493 --> 00:53:07,060
Don't you look cute?
945
00:53:07,194 --> 00:53:08,061
- Mwah.
- Mwah.
946
00:53:08,195 --> 00:53:09,730
Mwah.
- Mwah.
947
00:53:09,830 --> 00:53:11,465
Ooh, we were having
such a good chat.
948
00:53:11,565 --> 00:53:13,066
You were?
- Mm-hmm.
949
00:53:13,166 --> 00:53:14,535
What y'all talk about?
950
00:53:17,037 --> 00:53:18,071
Mm.
951
00:53:18,205 --> 00:53:19,373
Get comfortable, folks.
952
00:53:19,473 --> 00:53:21,409
Great. Thank you.
953
00:53:21,542 --> 00:53:22,643
Nice to see you again.
954
00:53:22,743 --> 00:53:23,711
Nice to see you.
955
00:53:28,215 --> 00:53:30,351
Sometimes...
956
00:53:30,418 --> 00:53:31,585
you get what you want.
957
00:53:31,685 --> 00:53:33,587
"The parties agree
that Paula Corbin Jones
958
00:53:33,721 --> 00:53:36,256
"did not engage in any improper
or sexual conduct
959
00:53:36,357 --> 00:53:38,492
"on May 8, 1991,
960
00:53:38,592 --> 00:53:40,928
"and that the allegations
and the inferences about her
961
00:53:41,028 --> 00:53:43,331
"published in
the American Spectator are false
962
00:53:43,431 --> 00:53:45,098
"and their adverse effects
on her character
963
00:53:45,232 --> 00:53:47,401
and reputation regrettable."
964
00:53:49,370 --> 00:53:51,339
You get your good name back.
965
00:53:51,439 --> 00:53:53,341
From the president himself.
966
00:53:53,441 --> 00:53:55,576
But that's not all.
967
00:53:56,777 --> 00:53:59,847
Our complaint asked
for $700,000.
968
00:53:59,947 --> 00:54:02,015
You know what number
they agreed to?
969
00:54:03,951 --> 00:54:05,453
$700,000.
970
00:54:05,586 --> 00:54:07,455
Every dime.
971
00:54:07,555 --> 00:54:09,857
- Oh, my gosh.
972
00:54:09,957 --> 00:54:11,291
We're so happy for you.
973
00:54:11,392 --> 00:54:13,394
That $700,000--
974
00:54:13,461 --> 00:54:16,263
is that coming
from Clinton himself
975
00:54:16,364 --> 00:54:17,798
or from his insurers?
976
00:54:17,931 --> 00:54:22,803
Well, insurance. But it's
the number we asked for.
977
00:54:22,903 --> 00:54:24,137
Anyway,
978
00:54:24,237 --> 00:54:25,806
next steps.
979
00:54:25,906 --> 00:54:27,408
- Why don't we go over...
- Can we have the room?
980
00:54:28,542 --> 00:54:29,743
Please?
981
00:54:31,979 --> 00:54:35,215
So we can speak privately.
982
00:54:38,486 --> 00:54:39,987
Of course.
983
00:54:40,120 --> 00:54:42,956
Thank you so much.
984
00:54:55,335 --> 00:54:56,670
- Well,
985
00:54:56,770 --> 00:54:58,472
since they didn't ask Paula,
986
00:54:58,572 --> 00:54:59,740
I will.
987
00:54:59,840 --> 00:55:01,074
What do you think?
988
00:55:01,174 --> 00:55:03,911
I think it's even more
than I ever thought
989
00:55:04,011 --> 00:55:05,613
- we'd ever get.
- He needs to apologize.
990
00:55:05,679 --> 00:55:07,748
This is not an apology.
991
00:55:07,848 --> 00:55:09,082
Steve,
we could have a normal life.
992
00:55:09,182 --> 00:55:11,284
But even better
than a normal life,
993
00:55:11,351 --> 00:55:14,021
'cause we'll have $700,000.
994
00:55:14,121 --> 00:55:16,457
They get a big chunk of that,
Paula-Poo.
995
00:55:16,524 --> 00:55:18,659
Oh, I know, Susie,
but you got to understand--
996
00:55:18,759 --> 00:55:19,927
we are not from Pasadena.
997
00:55:20,027 --> 00:55:22,496
And even $100,000 would be
998
00:55:22,596 --> 00:55:25,599
more than anyone in my family
has seen...
999
00:55:25,699 --> 00:55:27,034
all our lives.
1000
00:55:27,134 --> 00:55:29,336
Oh, gosh. I'm just thinking
about the kind of house
1001
00:55:29,437 --> 00:55:30,871
- that we could get back home
in Lonoke County.
1002
00:55:31,004 --> 00:55:33,507
- And I...
- Wh-What are you talking about?
1003
00:55:33,607 --> 00:55:34,708
Well, I was just thinking
that...
1004
00:55:34,842 --> 00:55:37,645
I don't want to go back
to Lonoke County.
1005
00:55:37,711 --> 00:55:40,380
It doesn't matter how much money
this is to your people.
1006
00:55:40,481 --> 00:55:41,882
It's not from them.
1007
00:55:42,015 --> 00:55:43,551
It's not even from him.
1008
00:55:43,651 --> 00:55:45,118
The only thing
that would hurt him
1009
00:55:45,218 --> 00:55:47,721
even a tiny bit
is if he had to apologize.
1010
00:55:47,855 --> 00:55:49,723
"I did those things
to that woman,
1011
00:55:49,857 --> 00:55:52,059
and she did not want them."
1012
00:55:52,192 --> 00:55:53,393
Does that thing say that?
1013
00:55:56,697 --> 00:55:57,965
No, but this could change
our lives.
1014
00:55:58,065 --> 00:55:59,399
This is an insult, Paula.
1015
00:55:59,500 --> 00:56:00,568
And if you don't take it
that way,
1016
00:56:00,701 --> 00:56:03,236
I have to wonder,
why the fuck not?
1017
00:56:06,874 --> 00:56:09,376
Can't even believe
we're talking about this.
1018
00:56:23,824 --> 00:56:25,926
We talked it over.
1019
00:56:29,362 --> 00:56:30,598
Paula and I say no deal.
1020
00:56:32,700 --> 00:56:35,002
We asked for an apology.
1021
00:56:35,102 --> 00:56:36,436
Where is it?
1022
00:56:36,537 --> 00:56:39,106
He'll go to trial
before he apologizes.
1023
00:56:39,206 --> 00:56:40,774
Fine.
1024
00:56:40,908 --> 00:56:45,412
It'll be her word
against a president's.
1025
00:56:46,780 --> 00:56:49,717
Paula, you have to understand
1026
00:56:49,783 --> 00:56:51,952
what will come out in a trial.
1027
00:56:52,052 --> 00:56:52,953
I'm sorry,
what are you trying to say?
1028
00:56:53,086 --> 00:56:54,588
That you will lose.
1029
00:56:54,688 --> 00:56:56,790
In devastating fashion.
1030
00:56:56,890 --> 00:56:59,560
But, first, Paula...
1031
00:57:00,794 --> 00:57:02,963
...they're gonna drag your name
through mud.
1032
00:57:03,063 --> 00:57:05,365
They're gonna bring your past
to light.
1033
00:57:05,465 --> 00:57:07,467
Think of the witnesses
they'll call.
1034
00:57:07,601 --> 00:57:09,737
Think of the stories
they'll tell.
1035
00:57:09,803 --> 00:57:14,441
They want to be sure
no woman dares try this again.
1036
00:57:15,776 --> 00:57:18,445
- This is your victory.
1037
00:57:19,412 --> 00:57:20,981
You have it.
1038
00:57:21,081 --> 00:57:22,482
Right now.
1039
00:57:23,483 --> 00:57:25,052
You've won.
1040
00:57:31,559 --> 00:57:34,094
I'm sorry, Gil.
1041
00:59:07,054 --> 00:59:09,056
