1:33:00
Don't worry about it.
1:33:02
- Were you a dork?
- Practice your music.
1:33:04
If you were, you should say you're sorry.
1:33:07
Girls like that.
1:33:10
Syd?
1:33:11
- Did you see a grey cable-knit sweater?
- Grey sweater? No.
1:33:15
- I called you at the office today.
- It's Beth's. I wore it here one time.
1:33:20
- Where are you going?
- I'm going home. Then to Hartford.
1:33:23
- Connecticut?
- Yes. Did it go with your dry cleaning?
1:33:26
What's in Connecticut?
1:33:28
Richard Reynolds' campaign.
I might be able to get a job.
1:33:31
When did you decide to get a new job?
1:33:33
After Solomon fired me from my old one.
1:33:36
Beth's going to kill me.
1:33:37
Why did he fire you?
1:33:39
Total failure to achieve
any of the objectives for which I was hired.
1:33:43
I told him he was being unreasonable.
1:33:45
After all, I danced with the President and
rode in Air Force 1 a couple of times, but...
1:33:50
...those prickly environmentalists!
There's always something.
1:33:53
If it's not clean air, it's clean water.
1:33:55
Like it's not enough
that I'm on the cover of People Magazine.
1:33:58
I'll call him.
1:34:00
You'll call him?
You'll call him yourself, personally?
1:34:02
It will come from the President?
1:34:04
That's a great idea.
You should call Leo and make a deal.
1:34:08
He hires me back for 72 days.
1:34:10
I go around scaring Congress...
1:34:12
...making them think the President will
drive through a damaging and costly bill.
1:34:16
They'll believe me because
I'm the President's Friday-night girl.
1:34:20
I don't know if we can dip into
that well twice. I've lost all credibility.
1:34:24
But you never know.
I might be able to pull it off again.
1:34:27
Then you could pass some
ground-breaking piece of crime legislation.
1:34:32
A mandatory three-day waiting period
before a five-year-old can buy an Uzi.
1:34:36
Fuck the sweater. She'll have to learn
to live with disappointment.
1:34:40
What do you think went on here today?
1:34:43
I know exactly what went on here today.
I got screwed.
1:34:47
You saw the poll,
you needed the crime bill.
1:34:49
You couldn't get it on your own,
so I got screwed.
1:34:51
The environment got screwed, Sydney.
Nothing happened to you.
1:34:56
Governing is choosing.
Governing is prioritizing.
1:34:58
I made no secret of the fact
the crime bill was my top priority.
