00:14:58,398 --> 00:15:00,967
Would you kindly escort
these people

349
00:15:01,001 --> 00:15:02,936
the fuck out of my home?

350
00:15:02,969 --> 00:15:03,970
- Mm-hmm.
- [Martha] <i>Oh, I'm so sorry.</i>

351
00:15:04,004 --> 00:15:05,305
[Winnie] That's okay.

352
00:15:05,338 --> 00:15:06,573
[Martha] Thank you for coming.
Thank you for coming.

353
00:15:06,606 --> 00:15:07,907
- Thank you.
- Sorry about this.

354
00:15:07,941 --> 00:15:09,376
[Winnie] <i>No, thank you so much.</i>

355
00:15:11,511 --> 00:15:14,481
[ice cubes clinking]

356
00:15:14,514 --> 00:15:17,951
[door opens]

357
00:15:17,984 --> 00:15:19,286
Have you gone insane?

358
00:15:19,319 --> 00:15:22,022
I told you,
no more print interviews.

359
00:15:22,055 --> 00:15:24,057
Oh, it's a ladies' magazine.

360
00:15:24,090 --> 00:15:26,226
They were asking me about
the curtains, for Christ's sake.

361
00:15:26,259 --> 00:15:28,061
[Mitchell] <i>Oh, I know
exactly what you're doing.</i>

362
00:15:28,094 --> 00:15:30,297
You're just trying to take
the spotlight from Pat Nixon.

363
00:15:30,330 --> 00:15:32,232
I would never. Let me do this.

364
00:15:32,265 --> 00:15:35,001
Do--do you really think
that she, in a million years,

365
00:15:35,035 --> 00:15:36,269
would plan her concert

366
00:15:36,303 --> 00:15:38,104
just to be on the same night
as your party?

367
00:15:38,138 --> 00:15:39,639
It's a fundraiser,

368
00:15:39,673 --> 00:15:42,342
for her husband's campaign,
by the way.

369
00:15:42,375 --> 00:15:44,644
And, yes, I think
she absolutely meant to do it.

370
00:15:44,678 --> 00:15:46,446
Oh, it's a misunderstanding.

371
00:15:46,479 --> 00:15:48,682
The Bay of Pigs
was a misunderstanding.

372
00:15:48,715 --> 00:15:50,183
This is an encroachment.

373
00:15:50,216 --> 00:15:53,186
Oh, for fuck's sake. [sighs]

374
00:15:53,219 --> 00:15:56,489
I had to reorganize everything.

375
00:15:56,523 --> 00:15:59,225
The caterer, the flowers,

376
00:15:59,259 --> 00:16:01,361
all because you don't know
how to stand up

377
00:16:01,394 --> 00:16:03,263
to your boss' wife.

378
00:16:04,531 --> 00:16:07,367
At least Pat Nixon knows
how to support her husband.

379
00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:10,537
[scoffs]
That's not what I heard.

380
00:16:10,570 --> 00:16:12,405
Maybe if she stopped
talking behind my back,

381
00:16:12,439 --> 00:16:16,609
she might find a more fruitful
use for that mouth of hers.

382
00:16:18,712 --> 00:16:21,748
Are you implying
that the first lady

383
00:16:21,981 --> 00:16:25,185
isn't blowing
her husband enough?

384
00:16:25,218 --> 00:16:26,252
What?

385
00:16:26,286 --> 00:16:28,488
No! You're disgusting.

386
00:16:28,521 --> 00:16:29,522
Oh.

387
00:16:29,556 --> 00:16:31,624
She wouldn't know
where to start.

388
00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:34,761
But I do.

389
00:16:36,363 --> 00:16:38,565
I know right where to sta--

390
00:16:38,598 --> 00:16:40,667
Okay, stop it. Stop it.

391
00:16:40,700 --> 00:16:42,035
Don't I?

392
00:16:42,068 --> 00:16:43,670
Stop it, Martha.
I'm really angry this time.

393
00:16:43,703 --> 00:16:44,738
Oh, all right.

394
00:16:47,741 --> 00:16:49,409
[whispering] I'm sorry.

395
00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:55,782
How can I make it up to you?

396
00:17:05,358 --> 00:17:08,094
That'll be enough.
You can stand down.

397
00:17:08,128 --> 00:17:09,496
Yes, sir.

398
00:17:10,797 --> 00:17:13,767
[door opens]

399
00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:15,802
[door closes]

400
00:17:20,607 --> 00:17:22,041
[both] Mm.

401
00:17:22,075 --> 00:17:23,309
[Martha]
I thought he'd never leave.

402
00:17:23,343 --> 00:17:26,112
[both chuckle]

403
00:17:26,146 --> 00:17:28,648
- Welcome home.
- Mm.

404
00:17:28,681 --> 00:17:31,684
[both chuckling]

405
00:17:36,189 --> 00:17:39,459
[indistinct chatter]

406
00:17:39,492 --> 00:17:42,762
He should be done with his call
any moment now, Mr. Liddy.

407
00:17:42,796 --> 00:17:44,764
Are you sure
you don't need anything?

408
00:17:44,798 --> 00:17:46,499
No, thank you.

409
00:17:48,501 --> 00:17:50,236
What's your name?

410
00:17:50,270 --> 00:17:52,338
Uh, Linda.

411
00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:57,076
Gordon. [chuckles] I'm
so sorry to keep you waiting.

412
00:17:57,110 --> 00:17:59,245
Great to meet you.
Finally put a face to the name.

413
00:17:59,279 --> 00:18:01,548
You ready? Let's walk.

414
00:18:05,351 --> 00:18:07,187
These pitches
always wind me up.

415
00:18:07,220 --> 00:18:08,855
[chuckles] You nervous?

416
00:18:09,088 --> 00:18:11,524
Oh, I don't experience
human neuroses.

417
00:18:13,259 --> 00:18:15,795
I actually feed
off these moments.

418
00:18:15,829 --> 00:18:20,400
There's a wild and manic energy
to them, animal energy.

419
00:18:22,268 --> 00:18:23,369
Hmm.

420
00:18:25,472 --> 00:18:29,609
Ouch. [chuckles]
What happened there?

421
00:18:29,642 --> 00:18:33,680
I was sourcing
operational recruits...

422
00:18:33,713 --> 00:18:36,149
Cubans.

423
00:18:36,182 --> 00:18:40,687
I needed to show them that I am
what the Spanish call <i>macho.</i>

424
00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:44,524
So I placed my hand into the--

425
00:18:44,557 --> 00:18:46,860
the short flame of a candle
and held it there

426
00:18:46,893 --> 00:18:49,429
until the room smelled
of roasting flesh.

427
00:18:51,331 --> 00:18:54,567
Only then were they willing
to call me their <i>jefe.</i>

428
00:18:56,269 --> 00:18:57,303
[scoffs]

429
00:18:57,337 --> 00:18:58,872
[elevator bell dings]

430
00:18:58,905 --> 00:19:00,874
[Liddy] <i>Gentlemen, as you know,</i>

431
00:19:00,907 --> 00:19:04,310
<i>our president faces
a daunting campaign season.</i>

432
00:19:04,344 --> 00:19:08,381
For that reason, I've devised
a plan for covert operations,

433
00:19:08,414 --> 00:19:10,250
the likes of which
our electoral system

434
00:19:10,283 --> 00:19:11,584
has never seen.

435
00:19:12,919 --> 00:19:14,587
I present you...

436
00:19:17,290 --> 00:19:19,359
...Operation Gemstone.

437
00:19:20,660 --> 00:19:22,529
<i>The Gemstone,</i>

438
00:19:22,562 --> 00:19:25,732
brilliant, sparkling...

439
00:19:25,765 --> 00:19:27,934
impervious.

440
00:19:28,167 --> 00:19:30,570
I have crafted
an integrated strategy

441
00:19:30,603 --> 00:19:34,741
meant to function seamlessly
in enemy <i>territoire.</i>

442
00:19:34,774 --> 00:19:37,744
Phase one...

443
00:19:37,777 --> 00:19:39,445
Operation Quartz.

444
00:19:39,479 --> 00:19:41,881
<i>- A covert manipulation--</i>
- Oh, quartz--

445
00:19:41,915 --> 00:19:44,684
uh, quartz
is actually a mineral.

446
00:19:44,717 --> 00:19:45,752
Excuse me?

447
00:19:45,785 --> 00:19:47,387
Uh, quartz is actually
a mineral.

448
00:19:47,420 --> 00:19:48,521
It's not a gemsto--

449
00:19:48,555 --> 00:19:51,558
I took a little geology
at, uh, Williams,

450
00:19:51,591 --> 00:19:53,259
which I briefly attended.

451
00:19:53,293 --> 00:19:56,462
But I-I just love rocks.
Please proceed.

452
00:19:56,496 --> 00:19:59,933
Operation Quartz...

453
00:19:59,966 --> 00:20:02,235
a covert manipulation

454
00:20:02,268 --> 00:20:04,270
of the Democrats' outer circle.

455
00:20:04,304 --> 00:20:07,607
<i>We will round up
their fringe activist leaders</i>

456
00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:12,478
and export them to black sites
deep in the heart of Mexico.

457
00:20:12,512 --> 00:20:16,849
Each capture will slice
a viper from Medusa's crown.

458
00:20:16,883 --> 00:20:20,920
<i>Their leaderless ranks
will wither away.</i>

459
00:20:20,954 --> 00:20:24,624
Is that "export" as in kidnap?

460
00:20:24,657 --> 00:20:28,328
"Forced rendition"
is the optimal descriptor.

461
00:20:28,361 --> 00:20:30,363
<i>- Next up...</i>
- [paper rustles]

462
00:20:30,396 --> 00:20:32,599
<i>...Operation Ruby--</i>

463
00:20:32,632 --> 00:20:35,902
<i>the blood-red gem
of a duplicitous woman.</i>

464
00:20:35,935 --> 00:20:40,340
The Democrats are weak,
their women cold.

465
00:20:40,373 --> 00:20:43,009
We will secure a pleasure craft

466
00:20:43,242 --> 00:20:45,244
wired for sight and sound

467
00:20:45,278 --> 00:20:47,880
<i>and sailed to the Democratic
National Convention,</i>

468
00:20:47,914 --> 00:20:50,350
<i>where we will capture
their officials</i>

469
00:20:50,383 --> 00:20:54,287
enjoying the company of women
trained in the erotic arts,

470
00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:56,756
some of the finest
in the country.

471
00:20:56,789 --> 00:21:00,927
You want to film...

472
00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:04,330
Democratic officials...

473
00:21:04,364 --> 00:21:07,567
on a boat with hookers?

474
00:21:09,035 --> 00:21:13,473
Call it a passion play
for opposition leverage, sir.

475
00:21:13,506 --> 00:21:16,743
Just out of curiosity,
how many of these gemstones

476
00:21:16,776 --> 00:21:18,778
are we going to be
reviewing today?

477
00:21:18,811 --> 00:21:20,680
Eleven. With four subparts.

478
00:21:20,713 --> 00:21:23,316
And, uh, how much is this
all gonna cost?

479
00:21:23,349 --> 00:21:24,517
We're looking at a price point

480
00:21:24,550 --> 00:21:26,819
between $50,000
and $100,000 apiece.

481
00:21:26,853 --> 00:21:28,488
Right. Just finger math--

482
00:21:28,521 --> 00:21:32,392
that's uh, way over budget, sir,
astonishingly so.

483
00:21:32,425 --> 00:21:34,060
And that will not be a problem,
young man.

484
00:21:34,293 --> 00:21:35,828
Oh, good.

485
00:21:35,862 --> 00:21:37,563
[Liddy] <i>I do hope you
gentlemen have had a chance</i>

486
00:21:37,597 --> 00:21:38,931
<i>to brush up
on your II Corinthians,</i>

487
00:21:38,965 --> 00:21:42,535
because, well...

488
00:21:42,568 --> 00:21:44,804
this is
where we get to play God.

489
00:21:46,739 --> 00:21:48,908
My pitches are too ambitious?

490
00:21:50,076 --> 00:21:51,511
[shouts]

491
00:21:51,544 --> 00:21:55,548
Who in the fresh hell
does Mitchell think he is?

492
00:21:55,581 --> 00:21:59,419
You see the way he looked at me
when all was said and done?

493
00:21:59,452 --> 00:22:00,687
[stammering] Uh, no.
I didn't catch that.

494
00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:02,321
I'll tell you,
like a rat at his feet.

495
00:22:02,355 --> 00:22:05,925
It was like vomit.
That's how he looked at me.

496
00:22:05,958 --> 00:22:09,562
You know, t-those guys can be
very indelicate, uh, sometimes.

497
00:22:09,595 --> 00:22:11,631
<i>I wouldn't take it
too- too personally.</i>

498
00:22:11,664 --> 00:22:14,600
And Magruder--
that little pissant...

499
00:22:14,634 --> 00:22:15,968
[breathing heavily]

500
00:22:16,002 --> 00:22:19,072
..."Quartz is a mineral."

501
00:22:19,105 --> 00:22:20,707
He's lucky
I didn't snap his spine

502
00:22:20,740 --> 00:22:22,375
right in the fucking room.

503
00:22:24,077 --> 00:22:25,745
[glass shatters]

504
00:22:25,778 --> 00:22:27,080
[Dean] <i>Um...</i>

505
00:22:27,113 --> 00:22:31,751
[breathing heavily]

506
00:22:31,784 --> 00:22:33,019
What did you think?

507
00:22:33,052 --> 00:22:34,454
What?

508
00:22:34,487 --> 00:22:36,089
Of the pitch,
what did you think?

509
00:22:36,122 --> 00:22:39,459
You can tell me.
I'm--I can take it.

510
00:22:40,993 --> 00:22:44,931
What did I think?
I-I-I-I-I really liked it.

511
00:22:44,964 --> 00:22:47,767
I-I knew it!

512
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:50,103
I saw your body language
in the room, and I knew--

513
00:22:50,136 --> 00:22:51,437
I knew Dean liked it.

514
00:22:51,471 --> 00:22:52,872
What was your favorite part?

515
00:22:52,905 --> 00:22:54,407
[Dean] <i>My favorite?</i>

516
00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:57,677
Um, gosh, you know, th--
t-there were a lot of elements.

00:22:57,710 --> 00:22:58,878
<i>You know, I loved the--</i>

518
00:22:58,911 --> 00:23:01,013
T-the cheerful font
was very interesting.

519
00:23:01,047 --> 00:23:02,482
I did the font.

520
00:23:02,515 --> 00:23:04,117
- [Dean] Great, uh...
- I came up with the font.

521
00:23:04,150 --> 00:23:07,153
Yeah, look, let me
