:54:02
There are 2 Robert Halls,
one's colored, one's white.
:54:05
We have some footage
of the empty chair.
:54:07
I think that says it all.
Just that picture of McCarthy not...
:54:10
McCarthy leaving the hearing
after 7 questions...
:54:13
...and then we'll cut
to the shot of thechair.
:54:15
- We gotta do something about it.
- All right, so...
:54:18
Excuse me. Mr. Murrow!
McCarthy wants April 6th.
:54:25
Thank you, Natalie.
:54:31
Fine. If Charlie shoots it, we get
to see it first. We should offer.
:54:34
- It's a long shot.
- What the hell could McCarthy do?
:54:37
Is he gonna debate himself?
We just used his words!
:54:42
Johnny! Johnny! We know
what it's going to be.
:54:44
He's going to come after me.
There's nothing more he can do.
:54:47
He's gonna bet that
a Senator trumps a newsman.
:54:51
He'll lose.
:54:52
Not if we're playing bridge.
:54:55
- I'm sorry, guys. I didn't mean
to interrupt. - Hey, Don.
:54:58
- It's getting fun now!
- Ed, you have aminute?
:55:01
- Yes, I'll be right there.
- All right, boys. Playtime's over.
:55:04
We have 4 days...
:55:06
...to do a 29 minute show.
- Yeah. - All right.
:55:08
All right, go ahead.
Hi, Mary.
:55:10
Hello, Mr. Hollenbeck.
Mr. Murrow...
:55:12
- Could you give us a moment?
- Sure.
:55:15
Thank you, dear.
:55:18
I have to ask you something, Ed.
It's about O'Brian.
:55:21
- O'Brian doesn'tmatter.
- He's killing me, Ed.
:55:23
He doesn't amount to that much
in the newsroom.
:55:24
We've got to let that guy have it.
:55:26
We're not going after O'Brian. I will
not take on McCarthy and Hearst.
:55:29
I can't defeat them both.
:55:31
Just don't read the papers.
Or don't read O'Brian, anyway.
:55:39
Okay. I guess not.
:55:43
Sorry, Don.
:55:57
Although Mrs. Moss
offered to testify...
:55:59
...Senator McCarthy suggested
that she was too sick.
