that I will faithfully discharge all duties
incumbent upon me as governor,

1:00:08
that I will do equal right to the poor
and to the rich,

1:00:13
and that I will, to the best of my ability,
1:00:16
protect, defend,
1:00:19
and preserve the constitution and the laws
1:00:23
of this sovereign state,
1:00:26
so help me, God.
1:00:53
Well?
1:00:54
Here we are.
1:00:56
- It took a little doing, but it's worth it.
- That's right.

1:01:00
(Laughs)
1:01:04
Congratulations, Mr Governor McGinty.
1:01:07
Thanks.
1:01:09
You don't look as happy as you should.
1:01:11
- Don't you feel good?
- I feel all right.

1:01:14
You should feel all right
1:01:16
with this staring you in the face.
1:01:18
Ah, what a wonderful opportunity.
1:01:22
This state needs everything.
1:01:24
They had honest governors so long,
the whole place is in rack and ruin.

1:01:28
- Yeah?
- It's ridiculous.

1:01:30
The roads, for instance.
They're in terrible condition.

1:01:33
In case of war, we'd be at the mercy.
1:01:36
We need a whole new highway system.
1:01:38
How would an enemy get to here?
1:01:40
How do I know? Am I a general?
1:01:43
Then we'll need a new waterworks system,
1:01:46
a state canal and...
1:01:48
You'll kiss me for this one.
1:01:50
- A new dam.
- I do, huh?

1:01:53
I'm guessing from your expression
you don't know what a dam is.

1:01:56
You think a dam is something
you put a lot of water in.

1:01:59
A dam is something
you put a lot of concrete in.
