:09:02
If Mitchell had been minding the store
instead of that nut Martha...
:09:05
...we wouldn't have this kid MacGruder
running some third-rate burglary.
:09:08
We feel the bigger concern
is Gordon Liddy.
:09:11
Liddy? That fruitcake? What about him?
That's just it, sir.
:09:13
He is a nut.
:09:15
He used to work here with the plumbers,
turns up running this Watergate caper.
:09:19
Remember his plan to firebomb Brookings
using Cubans as firemen?
:09:22
What's Liddy got?
He was using some campaign cash...
:09:25
...that was laundered for us through
Mexico, the F.B.I.'s onto it.
:09:27
We could have
a problem with that.
:09:29
But that's just a campaign
finance violation.
:09:32
So, if...Yeah, if Liddy
takes the rap for Watergate...
:09:35
...we can take care of him
and that lets us off the hook.
:09:38
I don't have time for all this shit.
Just handle it, Bob.
:09:40
Keep it out of the White House.
I gotta see Kissinger.
:09:44
He's throwing a tantrum,
threatening to quit. Again.
:09:49
What else?
:09:53
Well, sir, uh...
:09:55
...one of the people implicated
is still on the White House payroll.
:09:59
Who?
Not another goddamn Cuban.
:10:01
Uh, no, sir.
A guy named Hunt.
:10:03
Howard Hunt, sir.
:10:05
Hunt? Howard Hunt?
:10:10
Dumb bastard left his White House
phone number in his hotel room.
:10:14
He works for Colson.
:10:16
He used him
on the Pentagon papers.
:10:18
This guy dumped his wiretapping stuff
into his White House safe.
:10:21
We're trying to figure out when he
stopped being a White House consultant.
:10:26
Howard Hunt is working
For the White House?
:10:29
Jesus Christ.
:10:31
This is goddamn Disneyland.
Since when?
:10:33
Since Chappaquiddick.
He wanted dirt on Kennedy.
:10:36
Colson brought him in.
You know Hunt, sir?
:10:39
Yeah, on the list
of horribles.
:10:41
I know what he is and I know
what he tracks back to.
:10:45
He was involved in the plumbers?
Oh, definitely.
:10:48
Colson had him break into Bremer's
apartment after Bremer shot Wallace...
:10:51
...to plant McGovern's
campaign literature.
:10:55
I had nothing to do
with that.
:10:58
He was in this Ellsberg thing too?
Yes. You approved it, sir.
