:24:27
Dammit!
:24:31
Jesus, Mary and Joseph...
:24:32
Take off for two hours
you're gonna miss a little drama
:24:34
I told you how stupid it was
to float that Lippman article
:24:36
Now you're gonna do it for real?
:24:38
The Jupiters are obsolete, Kenny
:24:39
They were supposed to
have been dismantled last summer
:24:41
I know they're obsolete
That's not the point!
:24:44
The point is you trade our missiles
in Turkey for theirs in Cuba
:24:48
they're gonna force us into
trade after trade, until finally
:24:50
a couple of months from now
they demand something we won't trade
:24:53
like Berlin
:24:55
And we do end up in a war
:24:58
Not to mention that
long before that happens
:24:59
this administration
will be politically dead
:25:01
I don't care if this administration
ends up in the freaking toilet
:25:04
We don't do a deal tonight
there won't be any administration
:25:07
It's the wrong move, Bobby
and it's not just me who thinks that
:25:10
Everyone on this so-called EXCOM's
telling you the same thing
:25:15
Whose side are you on now, Ken?
:25:18
Oh, goddammit
:25:22
What if there
hasn't been a coup at all?
:25:26
What if it's you two?
:25:28
What is that supposed to mean?
:25:29
What if it was you two
:25:31
who invited that second letter by
raising the possibility of a trade?
:25:41
Mr. President
we have only 30 hours left
:25:44
and whatever response we send
:25:45
it'll take several hours
to reach our embassy
:25:48
and be delievered to the Kremlin
:25:51
So early tomorrow morning
is the earliest
:25:54
Kruschev could respond
:25:56
Which one of you geniuses
is gonna tell me how to
:25:59
explain it to the world
if we don't make this trade?
