2:07:00
I know. I just know we've made
too many enemies.
2:07:06
There are things I can say
what other people said, and they'd be lies.
2:07:11
When I say them,
nobody believes me anyway.
2:07:16
Then, we're going to have to
give them Mitchell.
2:07:20
Mitchell's family.
2:07:23
Either it goes to Mitchell,
or it comes here.
2:07:27
John's right, boss.
2:07:30
Is not personal.
2:07:32
Is just the way
the game is played.
2:07:34
Sometimes
you gotta punt.
2:07:42
He's wrong, you know.
2:07:45
About Kennedy and L.B.J. and Truman.
How so?
2:07:48
Well, I mean, sure, they did stuff,
Bob, but nothing like this.
2:07:52
I mean, forget about the break-in,
the, the enemies list...
2:07:55
...the, uh...You know?
2:07:57
You got the attempted firebombing of
the Brookings Institution.
2:08:00
Planting McGovern stuff on
the guy that shot Wallace?
2:08:04
Trying to slip L.S.D.
to Jack Anderson?
2:08:06
The old man plays politics harder
than anybody else, John.
2:08:08
You think
this is about politics?
2:08:11
Do you think L.B.J. would have ever
asked Hunt to forge a cable...
2:08:14
...implicating Kennedy in the assassination
of the president of Vietnam?
2:08:18
How long have you known Bob, 20 years?
This is the Roosevelt Room...
2:08:21
...named after
our 26th president...
2:08:23
This is about Richard Nixon.
2:08:25
You got people dying because
he didn't make varsity football.
2:08:28
You got the Constitution
hanging by a thread...
2:08:31
...because he went to Whittier,
not to Yale.
2:08:34
And what is this Bay of Pigs thing?
2:08:36
Goes white every time
you mention it.
2:08:40
Is a code or something.
Well, shit, even I figured that out.
2:08:45
I think he means...
2:08:48
...the Kennedy assassination.
2:08:50
Yeah?
They went after Castro...
2:08:52
...and in some crazy way
it got turned back on Kennedy.
2:08:55
I don't think the old man
knows what happened.
2:08:58
But he's afraid to find out.
