:02:01
I'm not taking that biat
:02:03
The right move here is to move on
:02:07
Marcula!
:02:09
This is United States Destroyer
Joseph P. Kennedy!

:02:17
This is point
at which we are concemed...

:02:19
that there might be shooting
among the ships at sea

:02:23
with the possibility that invasion
might have to be undertaken

:02:26
to assure that
those bases are eliminated

:02:30
If invasion is undertaken
the Russians have said

:02:33
that they would
retaliate with rocket fire

:02:36
We have said
if there's rocket fire from Cuba

:02:38
we will retaliate
And there goes the whole ballgame

:02:43
Kenny
:02:44
What's this?
:02:46
Can anyone just walk in here now?
:02:48
Ken, don't worry
I'm not here to do an interview

:02:49
If you're looking for a cup of sugar
John, you got the wrong door

:02:52
Kenny
:02:53
we need to see the President
:02:55
Something's happened
:02:59
I have lunch with him
Maybe once a month

:03:02
Way the talks, he acts like
he knows Kruschev personally

:03:04
but he's never elaborated
:03:07
I've used him as a source
in a couple of stories

:03:09
The FBI has identified
this Alexander Fomin as the...

:03:14
Soviet Rezident, the KGB equivalent
of one of our station chiefs

:03:17
He's their highest ranking spy
in this country

:03:21
And he knows John's a friend of mine
:03:22
All the trademarks of
a back-channel overture

:03:25
Yeah. Some back channel
:03:28
ABC News guy
My goddamn next-door neighbor

:03:33
So they'll remove the missiles
:03:35
And we'll pledge not to
invade Cuba or de-stabilize Castro

:03:38
or assist anyone who plans on doing so
:03:45
I think this may be
our first real message from Kruschev

:03:48
The alternative, Mr. President
:03:50
is that is this could be a trap
:03:53
And how is that exactly?
:03:55
Dangle a settlement
:03:57
tie us down in negotiations
we come up short
