:30:02
It's killing the press
you're so healthy.

:30:05
Good. Now, what's so important?
:30:08
This is...
:30:09
...a brief...
:30:11
...written by an eager-beaver
law student.

:30:14
It's a theory about the assassinations.
:30:18
And indirectly...
:30:19
...it implicates the White House.
:30:23
The premise is so far-fetched
it's absurd.

:30:27
But Director Voyles, for reasons
both you and I can guess...

:30:30
...is going after it.
:30:35
Well, we....
:30:37
We can't interfere
with his investigation.

:30:40
You should ask Giminski
to have the CIA investigate.

:30:44
When we confirm that this is garbage,
you can ask Voyles to back off.

:30:49
It's domestic.
:30:52
The CIA can't go nosing around.
It's illegal.

:30:56
Technically.
:31:00
What about...
:31:01
...your friend...
:31:03
...Barr, and the Unit,
I think you call it.

:31:07
I've spoken to Barr.
:31:09
They're very good
for small specific missions...

:31:12
...but they aren't the CIA.
:31:15
How does it implicate the White House?
What are there, names?

:31:19
One name.
:31:22
Someone we both know?
:31:55
I've decided my agenda for the future.
:31:58
I'll stay in bed...
