:15:00
Last night...
:15:03
... Supreme Court Justices
Rosenberg and Jensen...

:15:07
... were assassinated.
:15:10
These assassinations may be an
attempt to strike at the very fabric...

:15:15
...of our government.
:15:17
But I can assure each...
:15:20
...and every American...
:15:22
... that these dastardly acts
will not go unpunished.

:15:28
Everything...
:15:29
...is being and will be done
to bring the culprit...

:15:34
...or culprits to justice.
:15:37
For justice must...
:15:39
...and shall prevail.
:15:43
I wish you could have known him
when I used to clerk for him.

:15:47
Last time I saw him,
only the mind was left.

:15:50
That's why they killed him.
:15:52
That mind was still a threat.
:15:55
But why kill him now,
when he had so little time left?

:16:00
Maybe they couldn't take a chance
he'd last till the elections.

:16:03
So why Jensen?
This President nominated him.

:16:06
He and Rosenberg had almost
nothing in common.

:16:10
That's what they should look for.
:16:13
Decisions on which they both agreed.
:16:17
Boy, if there ever was a moment
for a drink....

:16:23
One day at a time, right?
:16:36
We're talking a conspiracy,
then who are the conspirators?

:16:40
If we've let foreign terrorists in,
there'll be hell to pay politically.

:16:45
The intelligence community can't be
blamed for a weakness in immigration.

:16:49
Denton...
:16:50
...who are your suspects?
:16:53
This has to be kept very quiet.
:16:55
Of course. This is the Oval Office.
