:24:04
Call me Irish, but I don't
believe in cooler heads prevailing

:24:08
You know, they think I froze in there
:24:09
You didn't freeze
:24:10
You did exactly
what you should have done

:24:11
you stayed out of the corner
:24:13
You didn't decide
:24:14
Acheson's scenario is just...
:24:17
unacceptable
:24:18
And he's got more experience
than anyone

:24:19
There's no expert on the subject
:24:20
There's no wise old man
:24:24
Shit, there's just us
:24:26
Acheson's right
:24:29
Talk alone is not gonna
accomplish anything

:24:33
Well, let's bomb the shit out of them
:24:35
Everybody wants to
:24:37
Even you
:24:38
Even me
:24:40
Right? It sure would feel good
:24:43
Jack
:24:45
I'm as conniving as they come
:24:46
but a sneak attack is just wrong
:24:49
Things are happening too fast
:24:51
This is starting to smell like
the Bay of Pigs all over again

:24:53
Tonight
listening to Taylor and Acheson

:24:57
I kept seeing Lemnitzer and Dulles
:24:59
telling me all I had to do was
sign on the dotted line

:25:00
And that the invasion would succeed
:25:01
and Castro...
:25:05
and Castro would be gone
:25:09
Easy, just like that
:25:16
There's something...
:25:20
immoral about
abandoning your own judgment

:25:26
We just can't let this get out of hand
:25:29
And we'll do whatever we have to do
:25:30
to make this come out right
:25:37
I'm gonna stay here tomorrow
:25:38
You can't
:25:39
We talked about this. Your schedule?
:25:42
Best thing you can do tomorrow
is go to Connecticut

:25:45
He's right
:25:50
Yeah
:25:51
Jesus
