:40:01
Roll over.
:40:02
How serious is this Pelican thing?
:40:05
I've assigned 14 agents in New Orleans.
:40:08
I doubt if there's anything to it,
but we must check it out.

:40:11
I don't have to tell you...
:40:13
...how much trouble and pain
this nonsense could cause...

:40:17
...if the press gets wind of it.
:40:19
Oh, well, you got half of it.
Good boy.

:40:25
I just wish...
:40:26
...that you'd...
:40:28
...back off the thing....
:40:31
I mean...
:40:32
...it's a goose chase.
:40:34
Are you asking me to ignore a suspect,
Mr. President?

:40:39
If the press...
:40:41
...gets wind of what you're after
and starts digging, I'll be--

:40:44
We'll be crucified.
:40:50
So you're asking me to back off?
:40:56
Back off and chase the real suspects.
:41:00
Ignore it for a few weeks, that's all.
:41:03
Your hatchet man did a real number on me
with the press. They ate my lunch...

:41:07
...over the security...
:41:09
...we provided Jensen and Rosenberg.
:41:13
Get that pit bull off my ass and
I'll forget the Pelican theory a while.
