:04:09
What is your take on this, Jerry?
:04:12
The people will love it, Mr. President.
:04:14
Our conflict is whether we ambush
the 6:00 news or hold out for prime time.
:04:19
Screw the press.
This is a need-to-know situation.
:04:21
We should make it top secret,
and should move in with Defcon Four.
:04:25
We can't sit on this.
:04:29
General Casey, do you have an opinion?
:04:33
Well, sir...
:04:34
...do we know they are hostile?
:04:35
What do you mean?
:04:38
They have the planet surrounded
by thousands of warships!
:04:40
Do we know they're warships?
:04:45
Professor, what do we know about them?
:04:50
They're very advanced technologically.
:04:52
Which suggests, rightfully so,
that they're peaceful.
:04:56
An advanced civilization is,
by definition, not barbaric.
:05:00
Mr. President...
:05:02
...this is a great day.
:05:03
I and all my colleagues...
:05:06
...are extremely excited.
:05:08
Good.
:05:10
Extraterrestrial life.
:05:13
You're right, Jerry.
:05:15
The people are going to love it.
:05:17
This is a momentous occasion.
:05:21
Mr. President-
:05:21
We'll go all media on this.
:05:23
I'll wear my Cerruti suit.
:05:25
I'll need a good speech.
:05:28
Statesman-like...
:05:29
...historical and yet...
:05:31
...warm, neighborly.
:05:33
Abraham Lincoln meets
Leave it to Beaver, kind of thing.
:05:38
Are they too old-fashioned?
:05:40
No, I don't think so.
:05:42
This has got the colors but, no.
I don't think so.
:05:45
Not vivid enough.
:05:47
Nancy had this in the library.
:05:49
Yes, indeed.
:05:50
I don't think so.
:05:51
I thought perhaps the watered silk.
This week it's on sale.
:05:54
I hardly think I need worry about that.
:05:57
My husband is the leader of the free world.
