:23:00
But you were against the sale
because it put our advanced weaponry
:23:04
in the control of the Japanese.
:23:06
Now, that's... really vastly simplified.
:23:10
Ah! More affirmations.
:23:13
Oh, Senator Shanley.
It must have killed him to write this!
:23:16
All the polls have been positive.
:23:19
Ah! But I didn't bring you here
to discuss politics and economics.
:23:23
I know how that must bore men like you.
:23:26
I just wanted your input, gentlemen.
:23:28
I know you're investigating events
that took place at the Nakamoto party.
:23:33
I wondered if you felt there was any linkage
between those unfortunate events
:23:38
and the proposed sale of MicroCon.
:23:41
We're not aware of any linkage.
:23:44
Has Nakamoto done anything unfair
or improper in promoting this sale?
:23:49
Not that we're aware of, no.
:23:51
Good.
:23:53
Your investigation is concluded, then?
:23:57
Yes.
:23:59
Good!
:24:01
That's it, then, gentlemen. Thank you.
:24:05
There's one for you.
:24:07
Thank you.
:24:09
And one for you. Thank you very much.
:24:12
- John, here's some more faxes.
- Ah, more support! Always welcome.
:24:18
Mind if I give you some advice?
:24:22
No.
:24:24
If a battle can't be won,
:24:26
don't fight it.
:24:31
If a battle can't be won, don't fight it?
:24:34
Mm. The Art Of War. Sun Su, China.

:24:38
- An educated guy, huh?
- Oh, yeah.
:24:41
He read a fortune cookie once.
:24:45
Keep this number between us.
:24:51
Lieutenant Smith?
I have Lauren Smith for you.
:24:54
Ah, just what I needed.
:24:56
Webster, I'm calling to inform you
I'm taking Zelda.
:24:59
- When? This weekend?
- Todayat5 o'clock.
