1:05:00
You're presenting me with an ultimatum.
1:05:02
A statement of fact, Mr. Ambassador.
1:05:04
In my personal opinion,
1:05:05
my government is deeply committed
to our Cuban allies.

1:05:10
I don't think you're offering
Chairman Khrushchev enough.

1:05:12
We are offering the Chairman
a peaceful solution

1:05:14
to a problem he created.
1:05:15
You must agree to give up
your base in Turkey.

1:05:18
No, no, thas not gonna happen now.
1:05:20
The Turkish bases might not
offer too many problems

1:05:23
in negotiations once this
crisis has passed, but not now.

1:05:26
I am very pessimistic.
1:05:31
We're committed.
1:05:35
So are we.
1:05:47
Dave are you sure your wife doesn't mind
1:05:50
being home alone at a time like this?
1:05:53
She's used to it.
1:05:56
Thas impossible.
1:05:58
There's never been a time like this.
1:06:03
How'd it go?
1:06:08
Not well.
1:06:11
Dobrynin's frightened,
tired, scared, he's like me,

1:06:14
he's like all of us.
1:06:16
I want a leg.
1:06:17
There's no more legs.
1:06:19
Terrific.
1:06:28
Dobrynin feels that,
1:06:30
Khrushchev is too committed
to go along with our letter.

1:06:33
Thas the word he used, committed.
1:06:34
He used it twice.
1:06:36
Did you tell him we were going to
invade on Monday?

1:06:38
Yes.
1:06:40
What did he say?
1:06:42
That they were committed.
1:06:46
Was he telling the truth?
1:06:48
Was I?
