:55:00
Cheers.
:55:03
Would you mind telling me
what the President

:55:05
thought of my performance today?
:55:07
He admired your courage.
:55:10
I hope thas true.
:55:12
Most of those men
probably consider me a coward

:55:15
for what I said today.
:55:17
Maybe there should be a coward around
:55:19
when we're talking about nuclear war,
:55:22
which is what everyone is talking about.
:55:24
Everyone?
:55:25
Al Friendly of the Washington Post
and Scotty Weston of the Times

:55:28
have dug out the story.
:55:29
Don't ask me how.
:55:32
They know what our bearded friend
has in Cuba.

:55:35
Are you certain?
:55:37
Their questions were considerably
more accurate than my answers.

:55:42
Damn.
:55:44
I'll have to call the President.
:55:47
Excuse me.
:55:55
This governmens like a sieve,
:55:56
is a miracle we've kept the story
out of the press

:55:58
as long as we have.
:56:02
No, no, no, I can't, delegate that job.
:56:05
I'll I have to
call the publishers myself.

:56:11
Kenny who's at the party?
:56:18
Paris, did you say Paris?
:56:22
The President has made
his decision, Dean,

:56:24
he prefers the sea route.
:56:26
Yes, I understand.
:56:27
He wants you to deliver
the message to DeGaulle.

:56:30
He feels you're
the only man with the prestige

:56:32
and experience to confront the General.
:56:34
Thas gratifying,
but I don't see how I can.

:56:36
Dean, I needn't tell you
that we all belong

:56:39
to the least exclusive club in the world
:56:41
which also happens
to have the highest dues,

:56:44
the United States of America.
:56:45
The President wants you
to fly to Europe tomorrow.

:56:48
Well, I suppose I'm enough
of a lawyer to represent

:56:55
a point of view with which
I personally disagree.

:56:58
I do have one problem.
