:15:03
Don't ever straighten up my desk.
I'd never be able to find anything.
:15:07
I've always been
suspicious of neatness.
:15:10
If there's nothing on top
of a man's desk,
:15:12
he probably shoved all
the clutter into the drawers.
:15:15
And if his drawers are empty, what
the hell does he need a desk for?
:15:19
- May I come in, Dan?
- Sure, C.J.
:15:22
- How are you, Mr. Chief Justice?
- I'm not sure.
:15:25
Mind if I lie down on your couch?
:15:28
Mason. See if those T-shirts
are available on the open market.
:15:31
- I'd like to wear one under my robes.
- What T-shirts?
:15:34
None of your goddamn business.
Do I ask you about your underwear?
:15:39
Hey, how come your couch is so
much more comfortable than mine?
:15:43
You know something, C.J.?
:15:46
Maybe I'll give you that couch
as a going-away present.
:15:50
Who's going away?
:15:52
Think of how many people would
bust a gut with joy if I retired.
:15:56
You wouldn't do that to me, Dan.
:15:59
I won't quit when you're
short-handed.
:16:00
I'll wait until you got nine
men on the bench again.
:16:03
Yeah.
:16:07
Who's the president going to pick?
:16:12
He's already been appointed?
:16:16
Who is he?
:16:18
Mr. Justice Snow, I'm going to have
to ask you to rephrase that question.
:16:24
A woman.
:16:26
He picked a woman. Great.
:16:30
Good for him. It'll be fun.
:16:33
Who is it? Who is she?
Who? Who?
:16:36
The president has sent up to
the Senate Judiciary Committee
:16:39
the name of Judge
Ruth Hagadorn Loomis
:16:42
of the 9th Circuit
Court of Appeals.
:16:49
Get off my couch.
I have to lie down.
:16:52
Now, now, Dan...
:16:54
You're joking. It's a joke, isn't it?
:16:56
The president, I am told, thinks he
has made a great, progressive step
