11here in the nation's capital.
12
134
1400:01:00,270 --> 00:01:04,860
15Chance of rain showers and a likely
16chance of some drizzle that continues...
17
185
1900:01:04,990 --> 00:01:08,340
20With President Nixon
21facing an uncertain re-election,
22
236
2400:01:08,430 --> 00:01:11,100
25candidates for the Democratic Party
26are accusing him
27
287
2900:01:11,190 --> 00:01:14,340
30of failing to end
31American involvement in Vietnam.
32
338
3400:01:15,350 --> 00:01:17,500
35Members of the Committee
36to re-elect the President
37
389
3900:01:17,630 --> 00:01:20,940
40were in Jacksonville today
41on their campaign trip through Florida.
42
4310
4400:01:21,030 --> 00:01:24,020
45And for a report on that,
46here's Georgia Wilson.

5312
5400:01:29,350 --> 00:01:30,540
55This is the final weekend
56
5713
5800:01:30,630 --> 00:01:32,540
59of our month-long extravaganza sale.
60

63All sizes all on sale!
64
6515
6600:01:35,350 --> 00:01:37,860

7016
7100:01:37,950 --> 00:01:40,700
72by some citizens
73opposed to the Vietnam War.

77Reporter Alan Witten.
78
7918
8000:01:43,070 --> 00:01:45,860
81It was festive
82as the crowd turned to Capitol Hill.
83
8419
8500:01:46,030 --> 00:01:49,140
86In an hour's time,
87several thousand people had joined hands
88
8920
9000:01:49,230 --> 00:01:53,500
91to form a complete circle of war protest
92around the US Capitol.
93
9421
9500:02:01,870 --> 00:02:04,330
96Clean and Shine
97to the rescue! Cleans up stains,
98
9922
10000:02:04,550 --> 00:02:08,460
101only the shine remains. No rubbing.
102No trimming, no foul smells.
103
10423
10500:02:08,550 --> 00:02:11,620
106A sharp recession
107has shaken economic confidence.
108
10924
11000:02:11,710 --> 00:02:14,900
111As a result, a large field of
112Democratic challengers has emerged
113
11425
11500:02:14,990 --> 00:02:17,820
116and would beat Nixon
117if the election were held today.
118
11926
12000:02:17,910 --> 00:02:20,180
121- Five different flavors!
122- Five different meals!
123
12427
12500:02:20,270 --> 00:02:22,340
126One happy family!
127
12828
12900:03:41,710 --> 00:03:45,260
130One, two, three, four!
131We don't want your fucking war!
132
13329
13400:03:45,510 --> 00:03:49,220
135One, two, three, four!
136We don't want your fucking war!

140Mark Felt.
141
14231
14300:04:00,950 --> 00:04:03,620
144Gentlemen. Mr. Dean.
145
14632
14700:04:03,830 --> 00:04:05,940
148Goddamn Russian revolution out there.
149
15033
15100:04:06,870 --> 00:04:08,500
152Why aren't we arresting anybody?
153
15434
15500:04:08,750 --> 00:04:11,140
156Because that isn't a crime.
157
15835
15900:04:14,910 --> 00:04:16,820
160Right now the president
161needs your advice.
162
16336
16400:04:16,910 --> 00:04:20,340
165Yeah, Hoover's run the FBI,
166what, 40 years?
167
16837
16900:04:20,430 --> 00:04:23,100
170- Fifty.
171- Fifty goddamn years.
172
17338
17400:04:23,390 --> 00:04:26,620
175You know, Johnson and Kennedy
176wanted to fire him, don't you?
177
17839
17900:04:26,950 --> 00:04:28,170
180But they didn't have the balls.
181
18240
18300:04:28,390 --> 00:04:33,380
184If the president were to ask
185Mr. Hoover to step aside,
186
18741
18800:04:34,190 --> 00:04:35,940
189how would you suggest he do it?
190
19142
19200:04:38,630 --> 00:04:41,270
193We know you to be a friend
194to this administration.
195
19643
19700:04:41,510 --> 00:04:43,970
198We like to see our friends
199get what they deserve.
200
20144
20200:04:44,070 --> 00:04:47,260
203- You're next in line.
204- There is no line, Mr. Mitchell.
205
20645
20700:04:48,670 --> 00:04:50,580
208The president is asking.
209
21046
21100:04:53,270 --> 00:04:56,740
212Mr. Hoover would want to keep
213his bullet-proof car.
214
21547
21600:04:59,950 --> 00:05:02,540
217You're a real politician, Felt.
218
21948
22000:05:04,350 --> 00:05:06,420
221Then thanks for popping by.
222
22349
22400:05:09,750 --> 00:05:10,900
225If I may.
226
22750
22800:05:13,150 --> 00:05:17,140
229There is one thing Mr. Hoover knows
230that's been on all your minds.
231
23251
23300:05:20,150 --> 00:05:23,930
234Whenever the FBI hears
235a piece of gossip or information,
236
23752
23800:05:24,030 --> 00:05:29,180
239such as "I saw so-and-so out
240with another woman, not his wife,"
241
24253
24300:05:29,790 --> 00:05:32,980
244or a man, not his wife,
245
24654
24700:05:33,750 --> 00:05:36,180
248we're supposed
249to write everything down, and we do.
250
25155
25200:05:36,270 --> 00:05:38,140
253We write it all down in memos.
254
25556
25600:05:39,510 --> 00:05:41,100
257These memos come to me,
258
25957
26000:05:41,230 --> 00:05:44,780
261and I decide what information
262Mr. Hoover needs to know,
263
26458
26500:05:45,070 --> 00:05:47,220
266and send that up to Mr. Hoover.
267
26859
26900:05:47,790 --> 00:05:51,060
270And Mr. Hoover puts it all away
271in his private files,
272
27360
27400:05:52,190 --> 00:05:53,980
275to be kept safe,
276
27761
27800:05:54,110 --> 00:05:57,180
279out of the hands of people
280without discretion,
281
28262
28300:05:57,270 --> 00:06:01,900
284people who could do harm should that
285information be leaked, for instance,
286
28763
28800:06:02,030 --> 00:06:05,220
289and put before
290the court of public opinion.
291
29264
29300:06:06,790 --> 00:06:09,940
294And then sometimes Mr. Hoover
295will go, for instance,
296
29765
29800:06:10,030 --> 00:06:13,700
299to the president's closest aides
300and say,
301
30266
30300:06:14,230 --> 00:06:17,660
304Mr. Ehrlichman or Mr. Mitchell,
305
30667
30700:06:17,750 --> 00:06:20,260
308"I want you to know
309that we received that report
310
31168
31200:06:20,350 --> 00:06:21,940
313"about you and that other woman,
314
31569
31600:06:22,030 --> 00:06:25,990
317"and I want to tell you
318that there is absolutely no reason
319
32070
32100:06:26,110 --> 00:06:28,900
322"for us to take any further action.
323
32471
32500:06:28,990 --> 00:06:31,380
326"There is no violation.
327
32872
32900:06:32,630 --> 00:06:34,460
330"You're safe.
331
33273
33300:06:34,550 --> 00:06:36,180
334"We, the FBI...
335
33674
33700:06:37,270 --> 00:06:40,940
338"All your secrets are safe with us."
339
34075
34100:06:45,470 --> 00:06:47,580
342How long have you been in the FBI, Felt?
343
34476
34500:06:48,230 --> 00:06:49,580
346Thirty years.
347
34877
34900:06:49,670 --> 00:06:51,540
350Thirty years.
351
35278
35300:06:52,830 --> 00:06:55,860
354That's a lot of information,
355a lot of files.
356
35779
35800:07:00,790 --> 00:07:01,940
359Thank you, Mr. Felt.
360
36180
36200:07:02,350 --> 00:07:04,910
363Thank you, gentlemen. Mr. Dean.
364
36581
36600:07:13,230 --> 00:07:15,740
367Choke on your Manhattan.
368
36982
37000:07:16,030 --> 00:07:17,980
371Have a little something.
372
37383
37400:07:18,430 --> 00:07:20,580
375- Hello, darling.
376- Hey, sweetie.
377
37884
37900:07:20,670 --> 00:07:24,980
380I give you the chief dragon slayer
381and guardian of the American dream.
382
38385
38400:07:26,590 --> 00:07:29,780
385Oh, come on, Mark.
386Crack a smile, at least!
387
38886
38900:07:30,990 --> 00:07:32,100
390Eddie, let me go.
391
39287
39300:07:32,190 --> 00:07:34,580
394Eddie, leave her alone.
395She's the best. Come here, you.
396
39788
39800:07:34,710 --> 00:07:36,060
399- Did you hear that?
400- I need a drink.
401
40289
40300:07:36,150 --> 00:07:37,180
404- I am the best.
405- I heard that.
406
40790
40800:07:37,430 --> 00:07:39,620
409- Hi, hon.
410- Hi, sweetie.
411
41291
41300:07:41,950 --> 00:07:43,140
414- Look what I've done.
415- Look what you're doing.
416
41792
41800:07:43,230 --> 00:07:44,220
419What were you doing?
420
42193
42200:07:52,150 --> 00:07:53,420
423Yes, sir.
424
42594
42600:08:03,590 --> 00:08:05,580
427Keep the hips down.
428
42995
43000:08:07,590 --> 00:08:09,100
431Look at your feet.
432
43396
43400:08:09,190 --> 00:08:11,420
435Come on, attitude.
436
43797
43800:08:11,550 --> 00:08:13,180
439Eddie, they're elegant!
440
44198
44200:09:18,950 --> 00:09:21,020
443- Good morning.
444- Good morning.
445
44699
44700:09:23,470 --> 00:09:25,460
448- Is the director in?
449- Not yet.
450
451100
45200:09:32,230 --> 00:09:34,220
453Here's that Weather Underground file.
454
455101
45600:09:48,710 --> 00:09:51,500
457- How many bombings now?
458- Couple dozen.
459
460102
46100:09:51,590 --> 00:09:53,500
462Precise numbers, Mr. Miller.
463
464103
46500:09:53,590 --> 00:09:54,780
466Twenty-nine.
467
468104
46900:09:54,870 --> 00:09:56,580
470Nails and ball bearings.
471
472105
47300:09:56,710 --> 00:09:58,900
474These kids aren't messing around.
475
476106
47700:10:01,350 --> 00:10:03,140
478They're embarrassing the FBI.
479
480107
48100:10:04,350 --> 00:10:05,900
482Get the New York office.
483
484108
48500:10:08,310 --> 00:10:09,300
486He's dead.
487
488109
48900:10:09,950 --> 00:10:11,100
490Who?
491
492110
49300:10:12,150 --> 00:10:13,630
494Mr. Hoover's dead.
495
496111
49700:10:15,870 --> 00:10:17,940
498His housekeeper found him on the floor.
499
500112
50100:10:18,150 --> 00:10:19,860
502He wasn't breathing.
503
504113
50500:10:19,950 --> 00:10:21,980
506It looks like a stroke.
507
508114
50900:10:27,270 --> 00:10:29,140
510Put everything into motion.
511
512115
51300:10:30,350 --> 00:10:33,260
514No mistakes, gentlemen. Not one.
515
516116
51700:11:19,750 --> 00:11:20,740
518Good morning, Felt.
519

526Pat Gray.
527
528119
52900:11:24,310 --> 00:11:26,180
530Complicated morning for all of us.
531
532120
53300:11:26,270 --> 00:11:29,860
534Indeed. Mr. Miller, here, will be
535handling the funeral arrangements.
536
537121
53800:11:29,950 --> 00:11:32,620
539I have the Attorney General's
540instructions on seating and protocol.
541
542122
54300:11:32,710 --> 00:11:34,190
544The funeral will be handled by the FBI.
545
546123
54700:11:34,270 --> 00:11:36,660
548The Attorney General
549will sit beside the vice president.
550
551124
55200:11:36,750 --> 00:11:39,780
553Handled by the FBI
554in its own way, Mr. Gray.
555
556125
55700:11:42,270 --> 00:11:45,180
558I also have instructions
559on Mr. Hoover's files.
560
561126
56200:11:45,310 --> 00:11:48,340
563I am to take possession of them
564and bring them to the White House.
565
566127
56700:11:48,670 --> 00:11:50,500
568What files?
569
570128
57100:11:53,350 --> 00:11:56,900
572Mr. Hoover's secret files.
573The Personal and Confidentials.

577Official and Confidentials.
578
579130
58000:12:00,470 --> 00:12:02,460
581There are no secret files.
582
583131
58400:12:47,350 --> 00:12:52,550
585We thank thee this day
586with arms open for J. Edgar Hoover,

607We ask that we may be as strong,
608

611- brave as he was brave...
612- Excuse me.
613
614138
61500:13:13,550 --> 00:13:16,300
616- Loyal as he was loyal...
617- Pardon me.
618

626
627141
62800:13:38,910 --> 00:13:40,130
629Felt!
630
631142
63200:13:41,950 --> 00:13:43,540
633Jesus. Bill Sullivan.
634
635143
63600:13:45,910 --> 00:13:47,700
637I'd like a word with you.
638
639144
64000:13:52,590 --> 00:13:55,740
641Bill Sullivan and Mark Felt,
642together again.
643
644145
64500:13:55,830 --> 00:13:56,980
646Who would have thought it?
647
648146
64900:13:57,070 --> 00:13:59,020
650I think I was the one
651who recommended you to the old man
652
653147
65400:13:59,110 --> 00:14:00,180
655for your first big promotion.
656
657148
65800:14:00,270 --> 00:14:03,220
659- You know you were.
660- That's right. Mark Felt never forgets.
661
662149
66300:14:03,670 --> 00:14:05,180
664That's why everyone likes you.
665
666150
66700:14:05,310 --> 00:14:08,260
668Hell, I even like you.
669
670151
67100:14:08,350 --> 00:14:09,780
672And I don't like anybody.
673
674152
67500:14:09,910 --> 00:14:11,390
676What do you want?
677
678153
67900:14:13,110 --> 00:14:15,260
680I had 30 years in the bureau.
681
682154
68300:14:15,750 --> 00:14:17,420
684Same as you.
685
686155
68700:14:17,510 --> 00:14:19,500
688- You were the director's bag man.
689- Oh, yeah?
690
691156
69200:14:19,590 --> 00:14:21,940
693You taped Martin Luther King
694with other women
695
696157
69700:14:22,030 --> 00:14:24,260
698and sent the pictures to his wife.
699
700158
70100:14:25,030 --> 00:14:26,940
702Do you need me to actually say it?
703
704159
70500:14:28,070 --> 00:14:31,100
706Those days were gone. You had to go.
707
708160
70900:14:33,830 --> 00:14:38,580
710You could be you, Mark,
711only because I was who I was.
712
713161
71400:14:40,630 --> 00:14:42,780
715You and I were an ecosystem.
716
717162
71800:14:42,870 --> 00:14:45,060
719That's how nature works.
720
721163
72200:14:45,350 --> 00:14:47,180
723Keeps everything in a balance.
724
725164
72600:14:49,350 --> 00:14:50,940
727Now, the king is dead.
728
729165
73000:14:51,590 --> 00:14:53,140
731Long live the king.
732
733166
73400:14:54,630 --> 00:14:57,460
735- Are you the new king?
736- You tell me.
737
738167
73900:14:57,910 --> 00:15:00,470
740You're the president's new best friend.
741
742168
74300:15:03,270 --> 00:15:04,670
744Mark Felt.
745
746169
74700:15:05,870 --> 00:15:09,140
748Integrity, bravery, fidelity.
749
750170
75100:15:09,350 --> 00:15:11,020
752Ladies and gentlemen, the G-man's G-man.
753
754171
75500:15:11,310 --> 00:15:14,380
756You want to know what everybody
757really thinks of you? Do you?
758
759172
76000:15:15,110 --> 00:15:19,150
761Competent, reliable, loyal.
762
763173
76400:15:19,230 --> 00:15:21,300
765- What's wrong with that?
766- Nothing.
767
768174
76900:15:22,470 --> 00:15:24,420
770If you're a golden retriever.
771
772175
77300:15:25,990 --> 00:15:26,980
774Hoover's gone.
775
776176
77700:15:28,710 --> 00:15:30,190
778You're alone now,
779
780177
78100:15:32,470 --> 00:15:35,820
782holding the end of your own leash.
783
784178
78500:15:55,470 --> 00:15:57,220
786Attorney General, line one.
787
788179
78900:16:08,630 --> 00:16:09,660
790Dick.
791
792180
79300:16:12,830 --> 00:16:14,050
794Yes.
795
796181
79700:16:14,190 --> 00:16:17,260
798Well, I have enjoyed every day of it.
799
800182
80100:16:17,350 --> 00:16:22,100
802The FBI has been home to me
803and my family for 30 years and...
804
805183
80600:16:23,270 --> 00:16:24,300
807Yes.
808
809184
81000:16:33,150 --> 00:16:34,780
811"A new day."
812
813185
81400:16:36,390 --> 00:16:39,060
815Yes, a fresh start.
816
817186
81800:16:39,270 --> 00:16:41,780
819It's what I would do.
820
821187
82200:16:44,230 --> 00:16:46,220
823Who do you have in mind?
824
825188
82600:16:49,270 --> 00:16:52,180
827I'm sorry. Could you repeat that? Who?
828
829189
83000:16:57,230 --> 00:17:00,260
831- Welcome to the FBI.
832- A friendly face.
833
834190
83500:17:00,430 --> 00:17:01,650
836Gentlemen.
837
838191
83900:17:02,390 --> 00:17:03,740
840Now, Mr. Gray.
841
842192
84300:17:03,830 --> 00:17:06,860
844I know the bureau
845has its closets and skeletons.
846
847193
84800:17:07,030 --> 00:17:09,540
849You can count on me
850to keep those doors shut.
851
852194
85300:17:10,030 --> 00:17:11,620
854I'll be candid with you.
855
856195
85700:17:11,710 --> 00:17:13,780
858I was a submarine commander in the navy.
859
860196
86100:17:13,910 --> 00:17:17,540
862I was father, confessor and friend
863to 18-year-olds.
864
865197
86600:17:17,670 --> 00:17:19,220
867Did you know that?
868
869198
87000:17:19,950 --> 00:17:22,100
871I'm not a suspicious man by nature.
872
873199
87400:17:22,190 --> 00:17:24,940
875That probably makes me
876a strange choice to run the FBI.
877
878200
87900:17:25,030 --> 00:17:27,980
880In fact,
881when the president called my wife
882
883201
88400:17:28,110 --> 00:17:30,060
885she begged me to turn him down, but...
886
887202
88800:17:31,950 --> 00:17:34,940
889But the president wasn't asking,
890if you know what I mean.
891
892203
89300:17:37,430 --> 00:17:40,260
894Now, let me be candid with you,
895Mr. Gray.
896
897204
89800:17:40,790 --> 00:17:44,300
899The FBI is the most respected
900institution in the world.
901
902205
90300:17:44,390 --> 00:17:47,380
904It is one of the two cockpits
905that fly America,
906
907206
90800:17:47,470 --> 00:17:51,700
909and it is what it is because no one
910from the outside ever got inside.
911
912207
91300:17:53,950 --> 00:17:56,100
914Mr. Hoover has been old, a long time.
915
916208
91700:17:56,190 --> 00:17:58,100
918We all know it's been you
919running the FBI, Felt.
920
921209
92200:17:58,190 --> 00:18:00,620
923- Your reputation is stellar.
924- Let me finish.
925
926210
92700:18:01,750 --> 00:18:04,420
928You have no law enforcement experience.
929You're an outsider.
930
931211
93200:18:04,670 --> 00:18:08,180
933That is your battle to fight,
934but I'm going to help you.
935
936212
93700:18:08,270 --> 00:18:10,020
938- Well, I appreciate that.
939- Don't.
940
941213
94200:18:10,270 --> 00:18:12,540
943It's not an act of generosity.
944
945214
94600:18:12,790 --> 00:18:15,740
947This is about this building
948and what goes on in here
949
950215
95100:18:15,830 --> 00:18:17,700
952and what it means to the country.
953
954216
95500:18:18,030 --> 00:18:19,580
956That is all I care about.
957
958217
95900:18:20,270 --> 00:18:23,500
960As long as you keep the FBI first,
961
962218
96300:18:23,670 --> 00:18:25,660
964you'll be able to count on me.
965
966219
96700:18:31,390 --> 00:18:32,870
968This is your office.
969
970220
97100:19:00,550 --> 00:19:02,540
972I thought the job was yours.
973
974221
97500:19:05,830 --> 00:19:07,540
976What did I miss?
977
978222
97900:19:15,110 --> 00:19:17,220
980You and Mr. Hoover.
981
982223
98300:19:20,510 --> 00:19:24,620
984Don't you remember
985why he said he liked you so much?
986
987224
98800:19:25,070 --> 00:19:29,420
989He always said
990you and he had the same enemies.
991
992225
99300:19:31,870 --> 00:19:33,620
994That's why.
995
996226
99700:19:39,790 --> 00:19:41,110
998Thirty years.
999
1000227
100100:19:44,790 --> 00:19:46,460
1002Thirteen transfers.
1003
1004228
100500:19:50,510 --> 00:19:52,100
1006Thirteen homes to leave.
1007
1008229
100900:19:54,030 --> 00:19:55,300
1010Thirteen homes to make.
1011
1012230
101300:19:56,750 --> 00:19:59,580
1014I left behind every friend I ever made.
1015
1016231
101700:20:00,590 --> 00:20:02,860
1018And I kept my mouth shut,
1019
1020232
102100:20:02,950 --> 00:20:05,260
1022like the perfect little FBI wife.
1023
1024233
102500:20:07,430 --> 00:20:08,860
1026Until one day you wake up
1027
1028234
102900:20:08,950 --> 00:20:10,620
1030and you're so different
1031than you used to be
1032
1033235
103400:20:10,710 --> 00:20:14,100
1035you can't even remember
1036what the point was in the first place.
1037
1038236
103900:20:15,950 --> 00:20:19,940
1040Till there's just one thing
1041left in my head.
1042
1043237
104400:20:20,990 --> 00:20:26,380
1045The one idea left in my head is,
1046at least Mark's going to get that job.
1047
1048238
104900:20:27,190 --> 00:20:29,910
1050- And that will make up for everything.
1051- Audrey.
1052
1053239
105400:20:31,150 --> 00:20:33,260
1055They don't deserve you.
1056
1057240
105800:20:34,030 --> 00:20:36,420
1059They don't deserve us.
1060
1061241
106200:20:41,110 --> 00:20:42,660
1063You need to resign.
1064
1065242
106600:21:07,830 --> 00:21:10,420
1067When the bureau is in better hands,
1068
1069243
107000:21:12,830 --> 00:21:14,460
1071then, I'll go.
1072
1073244
107400:21:32,390 --> 00:21:34,660
1075- What is it?
1076- This is getting complicated.
1077
1078245
107900:21:34,830 --> 00:21:36,620
1080You better get down here.
1081
1082246
108300:21:36,870 --> 00:21:39,940
1084Five men wearing white gloves
1085and carrying cameras
1086
1087247
108800:21:40,030 --> 00:21:41,820
1089were caught early today
1090in the headquarters
1091
1092248
109300:21:41,910 --> 00:21:44,700
1094of the Democratic National Committee,
1095in Washington.
1096
1097249
109800:21:44,790 --> 00:21:46,010
1099They apparently were unarmed
1100
1101250
110200:21:46,110 --> 00:21:49,340
1103and nobody knows yet
1104why they were even there.
1105
1106251
110700:22:07,550 --> 00:22:08,950
1108Mr. Kunkel.
1109
1110252
111100:22:09,790 --> 00:22:12,980
1112Straight into the Democrat offices
1113in the Watergate.
1114
1115253
111600:22:14,390 --> 00:22:16,020
1117Who's our spy?
1118
1119254
112000:22:16,110 --> 00:22:17,780
1121Baldwin, Alfred C.
1122
1123255
112400:22:17,950 --> 00:22:19,940
1125Checked in six weeks ago.
1126
1127256
112800:22:20,030 --> 00:22:21,940
1129Says he was more than just the lookout.
1130
1131257
113200:22:22,030 --> 00:22:24,060
1133He says he was supposed
1134to listen for "girlie stuff."
1135
1136258
113700:22:24,230 --> 00:22:26,620
1138Guess the Dems are having
1139a lot of trouble with their wives.
1140
1141259
114200:22:26,710 --> 00:22:28,380
1143He say where he got his instructions?
1144
1145260
114600:22:28,470 --> 00:22:30,460
1147Baldwin is one of ours.
1148
1149261
115000:22:31,230 --> 00:22:33,140
1151Ex-FBI.
1152
1153262
115400:22:33,990 --> 00:22:35,420
1155He worked under Bill Sullivan.
1156
1157263
115800:22:36,350 --> 00:22:38,540
1159When he was in the bureau,
1160was he in Mr. Sullivan's group?
1161
1162264
116300:22:39,070 --> 00:22:40,260
1164We think so.
1165
1166265
116700:22:40,350 --> 00:22:42,260
1168What about CIA connections?
1169
1170266
117100:22:42,350 --> 00:22:43,670
1172No idea. Why?
1173
1174267
117500:22:44,230 --> 00:22:47,500
1176Because 30 minutes ago
1177four of those burglars told a judge
1178
1179268
118000:22:47,590 --> 00:22:49,580
1181they are ex-CIA.
1182
1183269
118400:22:51,310 --> 00:22:53,140
1185What the hell is this?
1186
1187270
118800:22:54,510 --> 00:22:56,900
1189One of the most fascinating
1190and exotic stories
1191
1192271
119300:22:56,990 --> 00:22:58,820
1194ever to come out of Washington, DC,
1195
1196272
119700:22:58,910 --> 00:23:00,980
1198was the talk of the capital today.
1199
1200273
120100:23:01,070 --> 00:23:03,100
1202Robert Endicott covered the story.
1203
1204274
120500:23:03,230 --> 00:23:05,740
1206Democratic officials today
1207held a series of meetings
1208
1209275
121000:23:05,830 --> 00:23:07,420
1211to talk about tighter security
1212
1213276
121400:23:07,510 --> 00:23:08,990
1215at the national headquarters
1216here in Washington.
1217
1218277
121900:23:09,070 --> 00:23:11,220
1220The White House
1221has so far offered no official comment,
1222
1223278
122400:23:11,310 --> 00:23:14,900
1225but a close adviser to the president,
1226seen here visiting China last month,
1227
1228279
122900:23:14,990 --> 00:23:17,420
1230has said the president
1231is most concerned about the break-in
1232
1233280
123400:23:17,510 --> 00:23:20,620
1235and will be keeping
1236a very close eye on the investigation.
1237
1238281
123900:23:20,710 --> 00:23:22,460
1240Now, turning to other news...
1241
1242282
124300:23:23,950 --> 00:23:25,580
1244Mr. Lano is running street on this.
1245
1246283
124700:23:26,670 --> 00:23:28,460
12482:15, Sunday morning,
1249
1250284
125100:23:28,550 --> 00:23:32,020
1252Metro finds our perps inside the
1253Democratic National Committee office.
1254
1255285
125600:23:32,350 --> 00:23:35,460
1257We ID'd the lead. He's a pro.
1258
1259286
126000:23:35,550 --> 00:23:38,940
1261Five years in the FBI, 19 in the CIA.
1262
1263287
126400:23:39,870 --> 00:23:43,140
1265Then he left the CIA to run security
1266for the Attorney General.
1267
1268288
126900:23:43,590 --> 00:23:45,900
1270Then he ran security for the White House
1271
1272289
127300:23:45,990 --> 00:23:47,780
1274for the Committee
1275to Re-elect the President.
1276
1277290
127800:23:47,870 --> 00:23:49,270
1279The lead burglar ran security
1280
1281291
128200:23:49,350 --> 00:23:50,620
1283for the Committee
1284to Re-elect the President?
1285
1286292
128700:23:50,710 --> 00:23:53,700
1288- Is that what you said?
1289- That's what he said. Keep going.
1290
1291293
129200:23:53,790 --> 00:23:55,010
1293Yeah, it gets weirder.
1294
1295294
129600:23:55,150 --> 00:23:57,610
1297The lookout in here, three years FBI.
1298
1299295
130000:23:57,710 --> 00:24:01,300
1301Then the Attorney General recruits him
1302to be his wife's personal bodyguard.
1303
1304296
130500:24:06,190 --> 00:24:07,410
1306Just keep going.
1307
1308297
130900:24:07,590 --> 00:24:10,180
1310The lookout makes
1311a Howard Hunt the ringleader.
1312
1313298
131400:24:10,590 --> 00:24:12,180
1315Hunt's also ex-CIA.
1316
1317299
131800:24:12,270 --> 00:24:13,260
1319But get this,
1320
1321300
132200:24:13,470 --> 00:24:15,220
1323a year ago we were asked to do
1324a background check
1325
1326301
132700:24:15,310 --> 00:24:16,460
1328on Hunt for a government job.
1329
1330302
133100:24:16,550 --> 00:24:18,660
1332- Did we clear him?
1333- Yeah.
1334
1335303
133600:24:18,910 --> 00:24:20,860
1337For a job at the White House
1338
1339304
134000:24:20,950 --> 00:24:24,730
1341as a "consultant on highly sensitive,
1342confidential matters."
1343
1344305
134500:24:26,390 --> 00:24:27,500
1346That's a job title?
1347
1348306
134900:24:32,310 --> 00:24:34,980
1350White House, Justice and the CIA
1351
1352307
135300:24:35,070 --> 00:24:37,660
1354are gonna want to know
1355everything we know.
1356
1357308
135800:24:40,150 --> 00:24:42,580
1359But we aren't going to tell them.
1360Anything.
1361
1362309
136300:24:42,750 --> 00:24:44,620
1364The Attorney General already called.
1365
1366310
136700:24:44,830 --> 00:24:46,740
1368Nobody talks to the Attorney General.
1369
1370311
137100:24:46,830 --> 00:24:49,660
1372- We answer to the Attorney General.
1373- You answer to me.
1374
1375312
137600:24:51,070 --> 00:24:52,860
1377What about the director?
1378
1379313
138000:24:53,150 --> 00:24:55,340
1381I'll take care of the director.
1382
1383314
138400:24:56,190 --> 00:24:58,780
1385There is still no explanation
1386why the Watergate suspects
1387
1388315
138900:24:58,870 --> 00:25:01,330
1390might have attempted
1391to bug Democratic headquarters.
1392
1393316
139400:25:01,430 --> 00:25:03,780
1395A spokesman for the Attorney General
1396said yesterday
1397
1398317
139900:25:03,870 --> 00:25:05,780
1400that the FBI is already investigating.
1401
1402318
140300:25:05,870 --> 00:25:09,260
1404Their report will be turned over to the
1405criminal division for appropriate...
1406
1407319
140800:25:31,030 --> 00:25:34,940
1409John Dean, the president's counsel,
1410just went into the director's office.
1411
1412320
141300:25:35,990 --> 00:25:38,500
1414- Let me know when he comes out.
1415- Yes, Mr. Felt.
1416
1417321
141800:25:51,190 --> 00:25:52,900
1419Mr. Dean has left.
1420
1421322
142200:25:53,110 --> 00:25:55,100
1423The director's leaving in a bit
1424to play golf.
1425
1426323
142700:26:01,830 --> 00:26:04,470
1428What's John Dean
1429doing here in this building?
1430
1431324
143200:26:08,430 --> 00:26:12,140
1433This is a remarkable amount
1434of information
1435
1436325
143700:26:12,510 --> 00:26:14,020
1438about the break-in.
1439
1440326
144100:26:14,110 --> 00:26:17,220
1442We're still gathering string.
1443This is just the beginning.
1444
1445327
144600:26:17,630 --> 00:26:19,180
1447Okay.
1448
1449328
145000:26:21,510 --> 00:26:23,940
1451First of all,
1452there are no more interviews
1453
1454329
145500:26:24,070 --> 00:26:27,260
1456with White House or CIA people
1457without permission.
1458
1459330
146000:26:27,350 --> 00:26:28,780
1461- What?
1462- Whose permission?
1463
1464331
146500:26:32,070 --> 00:26:33,580
1466Give us a minute.
1467
1468332
146900:26:37,710 --> 00:26:39,420
1470Get out.
1471
1472333
147300:26:42,670 --> 00:26:44,780
1474The FBI is an independent body.
1475
1476334
147700:26:44,910 --> 00:26:45,900
1478I'm aware of that.
1479
1480335
148100:26:46,030 --> 00:26:48,780
1482Are you also aware that means
1483we don't need permission
1484
1485336
148600:26:48,870 --> 00:26:50,940
1487to do anything from anybody?
1488
1489337
149000:26:51,710 --> 00:26:55,300
1491You give that up just one time,
1492you don't ever get it back. Ever.
1493
1494338
149500:26:55,390 --> 00:26:57,340
1496Let's not get dramatic.
1497We don't even know what this is.
1498
1499339
150000:26:57,430 --> 00:26:59,340
1501That's right. We don't.
1502
1503340
150400:26:59,430 --> 00:27:02,070
1505But we're going to find out.
1506That's what we do.
1507
1508341
150900:27:02,870 --> 00:27:04,940
1510You don't work for them.
1511
1512342
151300:27:05,030 --> 00:27:07,590
1514You're the director of the FBI now.
1515
1516343
151700:27:17,710 --> 00:27:19,380
1518Forty-eight hours.
1519
1520344
152100:27:21,190 --> 00:27:24,580
1522We put the investigation to bed
1523and get on with the rest of our lives
1524
1525345
152600:27:24,990 --> 00:27:26,620
1527in two days.
1528
1529346
153000:27:29,550 --> 00:27:31,620
1531You've got 48 hours.
1532
1533347
153400:27:33,350 --> 00:27:34,670
1535Thank you.
1536
1537348
153800:28:18,990 --> 00:28:20,580
1539Nice to see you.
1540
1541349
154200:28:20,670 --> 00:28:22,420
1543What brings you back?
1544
1545350
154600:28:23,430 --> 00:28:24,940
1547Two words.
1548
1549351
155000:28:26,110 --> 00:28:27,780
1551Re... Venge.
1552
1553352
155400:29:08,510 --> 00:29:09,940
1555Was everything all right, Daniel?
1556
1557353
155800:29:10,030 --> 00:29:11,220
1559It's great as always.
1560
1561354
156200:29:11,350 --> 00:29:13,580
1563Your total's going to be $47.70.
1564
1565355
156600:29:13,670 --> 00:29:14,890
1567Thanks, darlin'.
1568
1569356
157000:29:16,230 --> 00:29:17,860
1571There you go.
1572I'll see you next time.
1573
1574357
157500:29:18,070 --> 00:29:19,500
1576Say hi to your mama.
1577
1578358
157900:29:26,750 --> 00:29:28,540
1580You look like hell.
1581
1582359
158300:29:31,510 --> 00:29:32,730
1584Have some food.
1585
1586360
158700:29:32,830 --> 00:29:35,020
1588- How are you, sir?
1589- Just coffee, thanks.
1590
1591361
159200:29:38,030 --> 00:29:42,340
1593So, what does this look like
1594to you, Sandy,
1595
1596362
159700:29:42,430 --> 00:29:44,140
1598and your pals at Time magazine?
1599
1600363
160100:29:44,230 --> 00:29:45,940
1602Oh, the Watergate thing?
1603
1604364
160500:29:48,310 --> 00:29:49,500
1606Honestly, I...
1607
1608365
160900:29:51,150 --> 00:29:54,060
1610No one at Time magazine or any newspaper
1611I know can figure it out.
1612
1613366
161400:29:54,830 --> 00:29:57,780
1615Ex-spooks get caught planting bugs?
1616
1617367
161800:30:04,550 --> 00:30:06,900
1619Does have a particular
1620odor to it though.
1621
1622368
162300:30:16,670 --> 00:30:20,450
1624I bet your old pal Bill Sullivan
1625sure misses the FBI.
1626
1627369
162800:30:23,350 --> 00:30:27,420
1629Because I heard the White House
1630gave him some bullshit job,
1631
1632370
163300:30:27,510 --> 00:30:28,910
1634waiting for Hoover to kick off.
1635
1636371
163700:30:29,750 --> 00:30:31,860
1638Sullivan wants back in.
1639
1640372
164100:30:32,030 --> 00:30:35,340
1642The president wants him back in
1643to run the FBI their way.
1644
1645373
164600:30:38,470 --> 00:30:40,460
1647Nixon and Sullivan.
1648
1649374
165000:30:42,270 --> 00:30:43,820
1651Those two were made for each other.
1652
1653375
165400:30:48,670 --> 00:30:50,020
1655Here you go.
1656
1657376
165800:30:52,630 --> 00:30:54,380
1659Could we have some pie, please?
1660
1661377
166200:30:54,750 --> 00:30:57,180
1663What kind?
1664We have apple, blueberry...
1665
1666378
166700:30:57,270 --> 00:30:58,380
1668You pick.
1669
1670379
167100:31:00,390 --> 00:31:02,380
1672What are we doing out here, Mark?
1673
1674380
167500:31:05,030 --> 00:31:06,900
1676I was given 48 hours.
1677
1678381
167900:31:08,910 --> 00:31:10,230
1680To do what?
1681
1682382
168300:31:11,910 --> 00:31:14,260
1684Wrap up the Watergate investigation.
1685
1686383
168700:31:15,590 --> 00:31:16,580
1688By who?
1689
1690384
169100:31:20,630 --> 00:31:22,140
1692Gray?
1693
1694385
169500:31:24,630 --> 00:31:27,660
1696Pat Gray, the director of the FBI,
1697
1698386
169900:31:28,550 --> 00:31:31,340
1700ordered the FBI
1701to stop its own investigation?
1702
1703387
170400:31:32,350 --> 00:31:34,420
1705There are calls
1706we are not allowed to make
1707
1708388
170900:31:34,510 --> 00:31:37,380
1710and phone and bank records
1711we can't go near.
1712
1713389
171400:31:40,830 --> 00:31:42,460
1715Thank you.
1716
1717390
171800:31:56,430 --> 00:32:01,020
1719In all the years I've known you,
1720you've never given up a single,
1721
1722391
172300:32:01,150 --> 00:32:02,940
1724real secret.
1725
1726392
172700:32:06,350 --> 00:32:08,060
1728Nothing but the company line.
1729
1730393
173100:32:12,950 --> 00:32:15,380
1732These are uncharted waters for you.
1733
1734394
173500:32:20,790 --> 00:32:22,860
1736So, one more time. What are we doing?
1737
1738395
173900:32:23,990 --> 00:32:26,020
1740You looking for a little help?
1741
1742396
174300:32:27,070 --> 00:32:28,100
1744Payback?
1745
1746397
174700:32:28,870 --> 00:32:31,590
1748I want the FBI left alone to do its job.
1749
1750398
175100:32:33,310 --> 00:32:35,020
1752That's all I want.
1753
1754399
175500:32:36,310 --> 00:32:39,030
1756And you want me to light a fire
1757around the edges
1758
1759400
176000:32:40,070 --> 00:32:41,060
1761with a story.
1762
1763401
176400:32:43,470 --> 00:32:45,660
1765Well, I can see why
1766they didn't give you the job.
1767
1768402
176900:32:50,110 --> 00:32:52,260
1770They must be terrified of you.
1771
1772403
177300:33:28,510 --> 00:33:30,940
1774- Come on, come on.
1775- Washington Post.
1776
1777404
177800:34:00,430 --> 00:34:03,070
1779I miss you.
1780I know I'm not supposed to say that.
1781
1782405
178300:34:04,590 --> 00:34:06,940
1784- It's okay to say that.
1785- No.
1786
1787406
178800:34:08,110 --> 00:34:09,660
1789It's too touchy-feely.
1790
1791407
179200:34:10,670 --> 00:34:12,700
1793I need you too much.
1794
1795408
179600:34:14,750 --> 00:34:16,580
1797Where were you tonight?
1798
1799409
180000:34:16,790 --> 00:34:19,100
1801The switchboard said
1802they didn't know where you were.
1803
1804410
180500:34:19,750 --> 00:34:22,180
1806Because I didn't tell them.
1807
1808411
180900:34:22,270 --> 00:34:24,100
1810Well, what about Mrs. Tschudy?
1811
1812412
181300:34:24,710 --> 00:34:26,110
1814She didn't know either.
1815
1816413
181700:34:27,630 --> 00:34:30,460
1818But you taught her
1819to always say that, didn't you?
1820
1821414
182200:34:39,070 --> 00:34:41,460
1823Have you been making the calls
1824about Joan?
1825
1826415
182700:34:42,950 --> 00:34:44,580
1828I've called all her friends.
1829
1830416
183100:34:45,030 --> 00:34:48,990
1832They haven't heard from her
1833in nearly a year.
1834
1835417
183600:34:54,430 --> 00:34:55,860
1837Are you looking for her?
1838
1839418
184000:34:57,350 --> 00:34:59,660
1841Is the most powerful
1842law enforcement agency
1843
1844419
184500:34:59,750 --> 00:35:01,460
1846in the world looking for her?
1847
1848420
184900:35:01,550 --> 00:35:03,030
1850I can't do that.
1851
1852421
185300:35:03,870 --> 00:35:04,940
1854Oh.
1855
1856422
185700:35:05,950 --> 00:35:07,740
1858It's against the rules?
1859
1860423
186100:35:12,790 --> 00:35:15,300
1862We don't know what they will find.
1863
1864424
186500:35:16,910 --> 00:35:17,900
1866Do we?
1867
1868425
186900:36:21,110 --> 00:36:23,100
1870Where the hell did they get that?
1871
1872426
187300:36:48,310 --> 00:36:49,420
1874Mr. Bates.
1875
1876427
187700:36:49,510 --> 00:36:52,940
1878This Washington Post story says
1879we know who the Watergate ringleader is.
1880
1881428
188200:36:53,950 --> 00:36:57,780
1883Then, this morning,
1884our Time magazine pal, Sandy Smith,
1885
1886429
188700:36:57,870 --> 00:37:01,420
1888called the acting director
1889to say that he is prepping a story
1890
1891430
189200:37:01,510 --> 00:37:03,970
1893that the FBI is plotting a whitewash.
1894
1895431
189600:37:04,070 --> 00:37:08,740
1897He said the director has put
1898a 48-hour cap on the investigation.
1899
1900432
190100:37:09,150 --> 00:37:10,780
1902- What's your point?
1903- Is that true?
1904
1905433
190600:37:11,230 --> 00:37:13,980
1907Someone in this office
1908is talking to the press.
1909
1910434
191100:37:14,070 --> 00:37:15,420
1912The point, Mr. Lano,
1913
1914435
191500:37:15,510 --> 00:37:17,460
1916is that leaks kill investigations.
1917
1918436
191900:37:17,550 --> 00:37:19,700
1920- Whoa, whoa. Okay.
1921- Take it down, Angie.
1922
1923437
192400:37:19,790 --> 00:37:23,020
1925You want to conduct
1926a leak investigation, be my guest.
1927
1928438
192900:37:23,110 --> 00:37:26,380
1930But you got 200 field agents from
1931here to LA all chasing down leads,
1932
1933439
193400:37:26,550 --> 00:37:28,260
1935so you're gonna have to
1936ask them all, too.
1937
1938440
193900:37:28,350 --> 00:37:30,060
1940Tone, in front of Mr. Felt.
1941
1942441
194300:37:30,150 --> 00:37:33,900
1944I can guarantee it wasn't me
1945or any of the guys in this room.
1946
1947442
194800:37:34,030 --> 00:37:36,490
1949Donald H. Segretti.
1950
1951443
195200:37:36,790 --> 00:37:39,140
1953You pulled that name
1954from Howard Hunt's phone records.
1955
1956444
195700:37:39,230 --> 00:37:40,980
1958He called Hunt a few dozen times, yeah.
1959
1960445
196100:37:41,230 --> 00:37:44,660
1962This says Segretti used to be a lawyer
1963in the Treasury Department,
1964
1965446
196600:37:44,830 --> 00:37:47,100
1967paid out of the account
1968that funded the Watergate.
1969
1970447
197100:37:47,230 --> 00:37:50,460
1972An account belonging to
1973the Committee to Re-elect the President.
1974
1975448
197600:37:50,590 --> 00:37:52,500
1977- Who is the head of the committee?
1978- John Mitchell.
1979
1980449
198100:37:52,590 --> 00:37:55,380
1982Former Attorney General, John Mitchell.
1983
1984450
198500:37:55,910 --> 00:37:58,630
1986The best we can make out is
1987Segretti's some kind of prankster.
1988
1989451
199000:37:58,790 --> 00:38:02,540
1991You know, like he's spying on the Dems,
1992sending their wives dirty pictures.
1993
1994452
199500:38:02,630 --> 00:38:05,940
1996- It's all bottom-feeder, frat boy stuff.
1997- Indictable under election laws.
1998
1999453
200000:38:06,030 --> 00:38:07,820
2001Forget the plot of the story,
2002Mr. Kunkel.
2003
2004454
200500:38:07,910 --> 00:38:10,060
2006What's the theme? What's it saying?
2007What does it mean?
2008
2009455
201000:38:10,150 --> 00:38:12,980
2011Like Angie, like Mr. Lano said,
2012we are still vetting the leads.
2013
2014456
201500:38:13,070 --> 00:38:16,950
2016All the ugly politics,
2017all the dirty money, all the sleaze.
2018
2019457
202000:38:17,070 --> 00:38:20,060
2021It means the goddamn punks
2022are running the country!
2023
2024458
202500:38:28,230 --> 00:38:29,340
2026Keep going.
2027
2028459
202900:38:30,910 --> 00:38:33,700
2030You might want to talk to
2031the White House about those leaks.
2032
2033460
203400:38:38,630 --> 00:38:40,420
2035- Why?
2036- 'Cause whenever I'm lucky enough
2037
2038461
203900:38:40,510 --> 00:38:42,540
2040to get someone over there
2041to actually talk to me,
2042
2043462
204400:38:42,950 --> 00:38:44,700
2045they know what I'm gonna ask
2046before I ask it.
2047
2048463
204900:38:47,670 --> 00:38:49,620
2050It's like they already know
2051what I want to know.
2052
2053464
205400:38:57,510 --> 00:39:00,820
2055Mr. Felt, I have the White House
2056on the phone. Mr. John Dean.
2057
2058465
205900:39:20,750 --> 00:39:21,940
2060Put him through.
2061
2062466
206300:39:25,710 --> 00:39:26,820
2064Mr. Dean.
2065
2066467
206700:39:26,950 --> 00:39:29,380
2068The White House is concerned
2069about these press leaks.
2070
2071468
207200:39:31,870 --> 00:39:33,350
2073Of course.
2074
2075469
207600:39:33,430 --> 00:39:36,660
2077We think the source
2078must be someone in the FBI.
2079
2080470
208100:39:42,910 --> 00:39:44,900
2082Why FBI?
2083
2084471
208500:39:45,110 --> 00:39:47,300
2086That's where the information is.
2087
2088472
208900:39:48,430 --> 00:39:51,380
2090Those stories could have come
2091from someone in the White House.
2092
2093473
209400:39:54,790 --> 00:39:57,100
2095We want you to do something
2096about it, Mr. Felt.
2097
2098474
209900:39:57,190 --> 00:39:59,420
2100- Okay.
2101- Now.
2102
2103475
210400:39:59,830 --> 00:40:01,260
2105Fine.
2106
2107476
210800:40:01,430 --> 00:40:02,860
2109But I don't understand.
2110
2111477
211200:40:04,270 --> 00:40:06,990
2113- Which part?
2114- The part about you calling me.
2115
2116478
211700:40:07,430 --> 00:40:10,540
2118The White House
2119has no authority over the FBI.
2120
2121479
212200:40:14,710 --> 00:40:17,900
2123- We can...
2124- At all, Mr. Dean.
2125
2126480
212700:40:20,990 --> 00:40:22,340
2128But we can suggest...
2129
2130481
213100:40:22,470 --> 00:40:25,940
2132I'm afraid the White House
2133has nothing to suggest to the FBI.
2134
2135482
213600:40:29,750 --> 00:40:32,820
2137- Thank you, Mr. Felt.
2138- Thank you, Mr. Dean.
2139
2140483
214100:41:01,230 --> 00:41:05,220
2142I want you to disappear
2143our investigation on these two names.
2144
2145484
214600:41:05,470 --> 00:41:07,580
2147Get them off the interview list.
2148
2149485
215000:41:07,670 --> 00:41:09,260
2151I don't get it. They're nobody.
2152
2153486
215400:41:09,390 --> 00:41:10,790
2155Just do it.
2156
2157487
215800:41:15,190 --> 00:41:18,820
2159Then make sure you say you did it
2160in Monday's memo for the director.
2161
2162488
216300:41:25,950 --> 00:41:27,140
2164Thank you.
2165
2166489
216700:41:30,030 --> 00:41:32,300
2168Your daily Watergate briefing.
2169
2170490
217100:41:34,670 --> 00:41:37,700
2172Thanks, Charlie. May I call you Charlie?
2173
2174491
217500:41:39,470 --> 00:41:42,780
2176How much of what we are getting
2177on Watergate am I actually seeing?
2178
2179492
218000:41:45,150 --> 00:41:47,180
2181Mr. Felt gives me the headlines.
2182I type them up.
2183
2184493
218500:41:47,270 --> 00:41:49,830
2186I give Mr. Felt the original
2187and bring you a copy.
2188
2189494
219000:41:51,390 --> 00:41:53,950
2191Mr. Felt doesn't want
2192to waste your time with details.
2193
2194495
219500:42:01,430 --> 00:42:02,420
2196Okay.
2197
2198496
219900:42:03,830 --> 00:42:05,230
2200Okay, Mr. Gray.
2201
2202497
220300:42:17,870 --> 00:42:19,220
2204Mr. Kunkel!
2205
2206498
220700:42:20,750 --> 00:42:23,260
2208Director Gray wanted you to know
2209he understands you and your boys
2210
2211499
221200:42:23,350 --> 00:42:24,780
2213are doing a hell of a job.
2214
2215500
221600:42:25,230 --> 00:42:28,700
2217Well, thank Mr. Gray, and not to worry.
2218We'll gather the whole ball of yarn.
2219
2220501
222100:42:28,790 --> 00:42:30,460
2222Mr. Gray also wanted you to know
2223
2224502
222500:42:30,550 --> 00:42:34,660
2226that there was gonna be a small change
2227in procedure in the information flow.
2228
2229503
223000:42:35,750 --> 00:42:38,820
2231How and, more precisely, where it flows.
2232
2233504
223400:42:39,070 --> 00:42:42,020
2235Not just the headlines,
2236but the story itself.
2237
2238505
223900:42:42,350 --> 00:42:44,500
2240The details, as it were.
2241
2242506
224300:42:46,150 --> 00:42:48,220
2244Does Mr. Felt know?
2245
2246507
224700:42:49,550 --> 00:42:50,980
2248Of course.
2249
2250508
225100:43:46,230 --> 00:43:48,420
2252Angie Lano called me last night.
2253
2254509
225500:43:49,750 --> 00:43:51,380
2256He told me
2257that he called the White House
2258
2259510
226000:43:51,510 --> 00:43:53,460
2261to set up a round of interviews.
2262
2263511
226400:43:53,830 --> 00:43:56,100
2265Half hour later
2266the White House called back
2267
2268512
226900:43:56,190 --> 00:43:59,100
2270to tell me that we can't talk
2271to two of the guys
2272
2273513
227400:43:59,510 --> 00:44:01,970
2275because their names
2276were taken off the list.
2277
2278514
227900:44:02,910 --> 00:44:04,420
2280The two names you told me.
2281
2282515
228300:44:05,790 --> 00:44:07,780
2284How would the White House know?
2285
2286516
228700:44:08,750 --> 00:44:10,780
2288I guess somebody told them.
2289
2290517
229100:44:12,150 --> 00:44:14,900
2292The only people who knew
2293were me and you.
2294
2295518
229600:44:16,230 --> 00:44:17,710
2297And Mr. Gray.
2298
2299519
230000:44:19,510 --> 00:44:20,940
2301And Mr. Gray.
2302
2303520
230400:44:23,790 --> 00:44:25,900
2305We need to find out what Gray has,
2306
2307521
230800:44:27,230 --> 00:44:28,900
2309and how he's getting it.
2310
2311522
231200:44:32,990 --> 00:44:34,980
2313Did I do something wrong?
2314
2315523
231600:44:35,070 --> 00:44:36,620
2317Mr. Bates tells me
2318
2319524
232000:44:37,670 --> 00:44:41,420
2321you've been giving Mr. Gray everything
2322we're collecting on Watergate.
2323
2324525
232500:44:42,350 --> 00:44:44,620
2326All our interviews, all of our files.
2327
2328526
232900:44:46,790 --> 00:44:49,510
2330Did Mr. Gray tell you to bypass me?
2331
2332527
233300:44:49,670 --> 00:44:51,700
2334Well, he didn't say
2335it was a secret or anything.
2336
2337528
233800:44:54,990 --> 00:44:56,980
2339But he said that you knew.
2340
2341529
234200:44:58,870 --> 00:45:01,780
2343How often did you give him our files?
2344
2345530
234600:45:01,870 --> 00:45:03,540
2347- Every day.
2348- Why?
2349
2350531
235100:45:05,110 --> 00:45:07,100
2352We know why.
2353
2354532
235500:45:11,710 --> 00:45:15,140
2356Did you give the Attorney General
2357any information about our investigation?
2358
2359533
236000:45:15,230 --> 00:45:17,690
2361- I don't talk to the Attorney General.
2362- Did you, Mr. Bates?
2363
2364534
236500:45:19,070 --> 00:45:20,550
2366Mr. Miller?
2367
2368535
236900:45:25,990 --> 00:45:27,980
2370The Attorney General
2371called me this morning
2372
2373536
237400:45:28,150 --> 00:45:31,500
2375about something
2376he could only have heard from the FBI.
2377
2378537
237900:45:38,590 --> 00:45:40,700
2380He's putting a box around Watergate.
2381
2382538
238300:45:42,590 --> 00:45:45,500
2384We can't touch anything
2385before the break-in.
2386
2387539
238800:45:45,590 --> 00:45:48,460
2389We have to stay away
2390from all the White House corruption.
2391
2392540
239300:45:49,830 --> 00:45:53,540
2394In other words,
2395the crimes that matter don't matter.
2396
2397541
239800:45:54,310 --> 00:45:57,540
2399For the first time in its history,
2400the FBI
2401
2402542
240300:45:58,710 --> 00:46:00,700
2404has been quarantined.
2405
2406543
240700:46:00,790 --> 00:46:04,750
2408Crimes that it knows about
2409will go uninvestigated.
2410
2411544
241200:46:09,190 --> 00:46:11,830
2413- Mr. Felt...
2414- Thank you, Mr. Kunkel.
2415
2416545
241700:46:25,110 --> 00:46:28,260
2418So, with everything we have right now,
2419
2420546
242100:46:29,870 --> 00:46:31,940
2422if we could get indictments,
2423
2424547
242500:46:33,790 --> 00:46:37,260
2426in your opinion, who would we get?
2427
2428548
242900:46:38,350 --> 00:46:39,670
2430How high?
2431
2432549
243300:46:42,910 --> 00:46:44,780
2434Maybe Attorney General.
2435
2436550
243700:46:48,510 --> 00:46:50,020
2438What about the president?
2439
2440551
244100:46:54,990 --> 00:46:56,780
2442What about the president?
2443
2444552
244500:46:57,550 --> 00:46:59,820
2446If the president's lying...
2447
2448553
244900:47:01,790 --> 00:47:03,420
2450Is the president lying?
2451
2452554
245300:47:03,510 --> 00:47:05,180
2454They're all lying.
2455
2456555
245700:47:07,830 --> 00:47:09,100
2458Then, yes.
2459
2460556
246100:47:11,910 --> 00:47:13,260
2462Maybe the president.
2463
2464557
246500:47:15,230 --> 00:47:17,260
2466As the investigations went forward,
2467
2468558
246900:47:17,350 --> 00:47:22,100
2470I repeatedly asked
2471those conducting the investigation
2472
2473559
247400:47:22,510 --> 00:47:24,820
2475whether there was any reason to believe
2476
2477560
247800:47:24,910 --> 00:47:28,980
2479that members of my administration
2480were in any way involved.
2481
2482561
248300:47:29,830 --> 00:47:34,140
2484I received repeated assurances
2485that there were none.
2486
2487562
248800:47:34,470 --> 00:47:36,700
2489I discounted the stories in the press.
2490
2491563
249200:47:36,910 --> 00:47:39,580
2493Who do you think gave
2494the orders to bug the Watergate?
2495
2496564
249700:47:39,830 --> 00:47:43,060
2498Well,
2499the persons who the grand jury indicted
2500
2501565
250200:47:43,150 --> 00:47:44,780
2503in Washington, DC, last week,
2504
2505566
250600:47:44,950 --> 00:47:46,500
2507gave the orders to do it.
2508
2509567
251000:47:46,590 --> 00:47:48,070
2511You don't think
2512they were following orders, then?
2513
2514568
251500:47:48,270 --> 00:47:49,980
2516- No, I do not.
2517- There's nobody higher?
2518
2519569
252000:47:50,070 --> 00:47:52,100
2521There has been no evidence
2522presented that anybody did that.
2523
2524570
252500:47:52,230 --> 00:47:54,900
2526I think the opposition is disappointed
2527
2528571
252900:47:54,990 --> 00:47:57,710
2530that after such a thorough,
2531intensive investigation
2532
2533572
253400:47:57,790 --> 00:48:00,250
2535that just seven persons were indicted.
2536
2537573
253800:48:00,350 --> 00:48:02,860
2539The Watergate break-in
2540took a dramatic turn
2541
2542574
254300:48:02,950 --> 00:48:04,140
2544when one of the defendants,
2545
2546575
254700:48:04,230 --> 00:48:06,500
2548former White House consultant
2549E. Howard Hunt,
2550
2551576
255200:48:06,590 --> 00:48:07,860
2553changed his plea to guilty.
2554
2555577
255600:48:07,950 --> 00:48:10,860
2557The judge accepted
2558the guilty pleas of the four Miami men
2559
2560578
256100:48:10,950 --> 00:48:13,180
2562on the condition
2563that they answer his questions
2564
2565579
256600:48:13,270 --> 00:48:15,540
2567on who else was involved in Watergate.
2568
2569580
257000:48:15,630 --> 00:48:19,780
2571With the crucial questions
2572of who, and what, were behind it all
2573
2574581
257500:48:19,870 --> 00:48:20,980
2576still unanswered.
2577
2578582
257900:48:22,710 --> 00:48:24,660
2580I got a call
2581from across the river.
2582
2583583
258400:48:25,750 --> 00:48:28,420
2585- Which river is that?
2586- The Potomac.
2587
2588584
258900:48:28,670 --> 00:48:29,990
2590The CIA.
2591
2592585
259300:48:30,990 --> 00:48:33,450
2594The CIA is telling us
2595we need to taper off.
2596
2597586
259800:48:33,550 --> 00:48:35,260
2599Taper off?
2600
2601587
260200:48:36,110 --> 00:48:38,700
2603- We're getting too close.
2604- Too close to what?
2605
2606588
260700:48:38,790 --> 00:48:39,940
2608I can't tell you.
2609
2610589
261100:48:40,030 --> 00:48:42,060
2612You can't, or you won't?
2613
2614590
261500:48:42,150 --> 00:48:44,140
2616It's a matter of national security.
2617
2618591
261900:48:44,310 --> 00:48:48,620
2620We are doing everything that
2621we can to investigate this incident.
2622
2623592
262400:48:48,910 --> 00:48:52,460
2625No one on the White House staff,
2626no one in this administration
2627
2628593
262900:48:52,550 --> 00:48:56,260
2630was involved in this
2631very bizarre incident.
2632
2633594
263400:48:56,990 --> 00:48:59,550
2635The CIA is telling us
2636we need to taper off.
2637
2638595
263900:49:00,310 --> 00:49:02,380
2640Disappointed. Disappointed.
2641
2642596
264300:49:02,470 --> 00:49:04,500
2644No one in this administration...
2645
2646597
264700:49:04,590 --> 00:49:07,900
2648We're getting too close.
2649It's a matter of national security.
2650
2651598
265200:49:11,510 --> 00:49:14,260
2653A bomb exploded
2654early this morning in the Pentagon
2655
2656599
265700:49:14,350 --> 00:49:16,540
2658and left-wing terrorists
2659telephoned newspapers
2660
2661600
266200:49:16,670 --> 00:49:18,020
2663to say they were responsible.
2664
2665601
266600:49:19,830 --> 00:49:21,340
2667People calling themselves members
2668of the Weather Underground...
2669
2670602
267100:49:21,430 --> 00:49:22,830
2672- Yes?
2673- Are you watching this?
2674
2675603
267600:49:22,910 --> 00:49:24,130
2677I see it.
2678
2679604
268000:49:24,830 --> 00:49:27,290
2681- What about the White House?
2682- It's at the top of their list.
2683
2684605
268500:49:27,430 --> 00:49:29,020
2686I told you that three months ago.
2687
2688606
268900:49:29,110 --> 00:49:33,700
2690- But can they really hit it?
2691- They just hit the Pentagon.
2692
2693607
269400:49:34,230 --> 00:49:36,100
2695I want us to open files on every member
2696
2697608
269800:49:36,230 --> 00:49:38,870
2699of every counterculture organization
2700in the country.
2701
2702609
270300:49:38,950 --> 00:49:41,460
2704Hunt them to exhaustion.
2705No holds barred.
2706
2707610
270800:49:41,990 --> 00:49:44,450
2709The president is fighting
2710for the White House.
2711
2712611
271300:49:44,670 --> 00:49:46,300
2714That's not my job.
2715
2716612
271700:49:46,550 --> 00:49:47,980
2718The president needs order.
2719
2720613
272100:49:48,070 --> 00:49:50,580
2722I promised the president
2723he'd have order.
2724
2725614
272600:49:53,670 --> 00:49:56,340
2727Which brings me
2728to my next point, Felt.
2729
2730615
273100:49:57,830 --> 00:50:00,140
2732I spoke to the Attorney General.
2733
2734616
273500:50:01,710 --> 00:50:04,620
2736The Attorney General
2737is going to officially announce
2738
2739617
274000:50:04,790 --> 00:50:08,100
2741we have found nothing
2742connecting the president on Watergate.
2743
2744618
274500:50:08,190 --> 00:50:10,650
2746What? But that's not real.
2747
2748619
274900:50:10,750 --> 00:50:15,620
2750I know. And the president knows
2751you are still pursuing it.
2752
2753620
275400:50:18,110 --> 00:50:20,220
2755You're never going to find
2756what you're chasing.
2757
2758621
275900:50:20,310 --> 00:50:22,950
2760I want it to end.
2761It's time to finish it.
2762
2763622
276400:50:23,070 --> 00:50:24,700
2765Shut it down.
2766
2767623
276800:50:27,230 --> 00:50:30,140
2769I hear you and your wife
2770are registered Democrats, Mark.
2771
2772624
277300:50:30,790 --> 00:50:32,860
2774I hope you're not going
2775to let that get in the way.
2776
2777625
277800:50:37,710 --> 00:50:40,170
2779The Weather Underground,
2780they're combining.
2781
2782626
278300:50:40,270 --> 00:50:42,020
2784They're multiplying.
2785
2786627
278700:50:42,110 --> 00:50:43,660
2788We'll never get warrants. Not now.
2789
2790628
279100:50:43,750 --> 00:50:44,740
2792Warrants?
2793
2794629
279500:50:45,070 --> 00:50:48,020
2796We're not talking about the kids
2797sleeping out there in the parks.
2798
2799630
280000:50:48,110 --> 00:50:51,990
2801We're talking about people who would
2802burn your children alive in their beds.
2803
2804631
280500:50:52,070 --> 00:50:54,220
2806People die because we stick
2807to the letter of the law,
2808
2809632
281000:50:54,350 --> 00:50:56,500
2811we lose everything, including the law.
2812
2813633
281400:50:57,510 --> 00:50:58,660
2815We're taking off the gloves.
2816
2817634
281800:50:59,390 --> 00:51:01,740
2819Entries, taps, nothing on paper.
2820
2821635
282200:51:01,830 --> 00:51:03,620
2823No warrants.
2824
2825636
282600:51:03,710 --> 00:51:05,540
2827Mr. Miller's people
2828report to Mr. Miller.
2829
2830637
283100:51:05,630 --> 00:51:06,780
2832Mr. Miller reports to me.
2833
2834638
283500:51:06,870 --> 00:51:08,460
2836Just like the bad old days.
2837
2838639
283900:51:08,790 --> 00:51:10,700
2840Where's Bill Sullivan when you need him?
2841
2842640
284300:51:10,790 --> 00:51:12,340
2844He's over at the White House,
2845
2846641
284700:51:12,430 --> 00:51:16,100
2848protecting the nation by spying
2849on senators and their mistresses
2850
2851642
285200:51:16,350 --> 00:51:19,980
2853while we're here just trying to
2854keep all this goddamn mess together.
2855
2856643
285700:51:26,870 --> 00:51:28,090
2858Hey, look.
2859
2860644
286100:51:29,710 --> 00:51:31,340
2862We're on your side here.
2863
2864645
286500:51:31,830 --> 00:51:33,940
2866All I'm saying is,
2867all that was behind us.
2868
2869646
287000:51:34,190 --> 00:51:35,820
2871Even Hoover knew
2872the dirty stuff was over.
2873
2874647
287500:51:35,910 --> 00:51:37,310
2876That's why Bill's gone.
2877
2878648
287900:51:38,310 --> 00:51:41,180
2880All I'm saying is, everyone is watching.
2881
2882649
288300:51:41,470 --> 00:51:44,060
2884How many more kids do we have to lose?
2885
2886650
288700:51:44,190 --> 00:51:47,140
2888How many more
2889do we let just vanish into eternity?
2890
2891651
289200:51:47,870 --> 00:51:49,740
2893I am not Bill Sullivan.
2894
2895652
289600:51:50,550 --> 00:51:52,980
2897This is still the goddamn FBI.
2898
2899653
290000:52:15,590 --> 00:52:16,940
2901I don't want to intrude.
2902
2903654
290400:52:18,350 --> 00:52:19,460
2905Then don't.
2906
2907655
290800:52:24,110 --> 00:52:25,180
2909You heard from her?
2910
2911656
291200:52:26,790 --> 00:52:28,060
2913Joan.
2914
2915657
291600:52:31,270 --> 00:52:33,580
2917You think she's involved with all this?
2918
2919658
292000:52:34,710 --> 00:52:35,930
2921The Underground?
2922
2923659
292400:52:37,630 --> 00:52:38,950
2925How could she?
2926
2927660
292800:52:39,670 --> 00:52:41,940
2929She's just like me. Exactly like me.
2930
2931661
293200:52:42,030 --> 00:52:43,250
2933She worships you.
2934
2935662
293600:52:49,710 --> 00:52:50,740
2937She's okay.
2938
2939663
294000:52:52,910 --> 00:52:54,130
2941I can feel it, Mark.
2942
2943664
294400:52:57,270 --> 00:52:59,830
2945There's a price to pay for what we do,
2946Mr. Miller.
2947
2948665
294900:52:59,950 --> 00:53:02,180
2950There's a price to pay
2951for what we become.
2952
2953666
295400:53:04,230 --> 00:53:06,420
2955We all pay it, one way or another.
2956
2957667
295800:53:09,150 --> 00:53:11,100
2959Watergate was the most intensive,
2960
2961668
296200:53:11,190 --> 00:53:14,580
2963objective and thorough investigation
2964
2965669
296600:53:14,990 --> 00:53:19,620
2967in the history of the
2968US Attorney's office and the FBI.
2969
2970670
297100:53:20,670 --> 00:53:23,740
2972The Justice Department has now completed
2973
2974671
297500:53:24,270 --> 00:53:26,830
2976its criminal investigation
2977
2978672
297900:53:26,910 --> 00:53:29,980
2980without implicating any present official
2981
2982673
298300:53:30,590 --> 00:53:32,180
2984of either the White House
2985
2986674
298700:53:32,710 --> 00:53:35,740
2988or the Committee
2989to Re-elect the President.
2990
2991675
299200:53:36,070 --> 00:53:37,340
2993- Completed?
2994- Any questions?
2995
2996676
299700:53:37,470 --> 00:53:38,690
2998What the hell, man?
2999
3000677
300100:53:39,230 --> 00:53:40,580
3002Get me Felt on the phone.
3003
3004678
300500:53:40,670 --> 00:53:42,420
3006- As to the White House?
3007- Hold on, hold on. Wait a second.
3008
3009679
301000:53:42,630 --> 00:53:47,540
3011I understand the FBI's Watergate
3012investigation is in a state of repose
3013
3014680
301500:53:47,630 --> 00:53:49,620
3016and unlikely to be reopened.
3017
3018681
301900:53:49,710 --> 00:53:51,700
3020Anybody tell us this was over yet?
3021
3022682
302300:53:52,310 --> 00:53:55,100
3024Get me Felt on the phone! Or Bates!
3025
3026683
302700:53:56,430 --> 00:53:57,780
3028God damn it, get me Felt!
3029
3030684
303100:53:57,910 --> 00:53:59,260
3032- She can't.
3033- Why the hell not?
3034
3035685
303600:53:59,350 --> 00:54:00,860
3037'Cause he's right there.
3038
3039686
304000:54:00,950 --> 00:54:04,460
3041And now, let's return to the press
3042conference of the US Attorney General.
3043
3044687
304500:54:51,310 --> 00:54:52,500
3046Maybe she's dead.
3047
3048688
304900:54:56,630 --> 00:54:58,260
3050Maybe she just gave up.
3051
3052689
305300:54:59,270 --> 00:55:01,020
3054Didn't think anybody cared.
3055
3056690
305700:55:04,110 --> 00:55:06,380
3058Maybe she's right out there watching us.
3059
3060691
306100:55:07,590 --> 00:55:09,620
3062To see what a man like you does
3063
3064692
306500:55:09,710 --> 00:55:11,940
3066when your daughter
3067just vanishes one night
3068
3069693
307000:55:12,030 --> 00:55:13,510
3071for no good reason.
3072
3073694
307400:55:13,590 --> 00:55:15,100
3075Joan had a reason for everything.
3076
3077695
307800:55:16,150 --> 00:55:17,260
3079You hated her.
3080
3081696
308200:55:23,230 --> 00:55:25,020
3083Mothers don't hate their daughters.
3084
3085697
308600:55:26,790 --> 00:55:29,020
3087It's just not always easy being one.
3088
3089698
309000:55:29,630 --> 00:55:31,580
3091You dressed her up like a doll,
3092
3093699
309400:55:32,470 --> 00:55:34,780
3095until she got old enough
3096to look just like you.
3097
3098700
309900:55:34,870 --> 00:55:35,860
3100Mark.
3101
3102701
310300:55:35,950 --> 00:55:38,590
3104You kept telling her to get out
3105until one day she listened to you.
3106
3107702
310800:55:38,670 --> 00:55:40,100
3109Listen to me.
3110
3111703
311200:55:41,270 --> 00:55:42,670
3113I had no mother.
3114
3115704
311600:55:42,750 --> 00:55:44,230
3117But she did.
3118
3119705
312000:55:44,310 --> 00:55:45,500
3121Yes.
3122
3123706
312400:55:46,390 --> 00:55:47,460
3125She did.
3126
3127707
312800:55:48,430 --> 00:55:49,830
3129My father just left.
3130
3131708
313200:55:51,710 --> 00:55:53,700
3133So, yes, she gave me up
3134
3135709
313600:55:54,790 --> 00:55:56,460
3137to foster homes,
3138
3139710
314000:55:56,990 --> 00:55:58,700
3141then the orphanage.
3142
3143711
314400:56:01,310 --> 00:56:03,340
3145- But you know all about that, don't you?
3146- Yeah.
3147
3148712
314900:56:10,310 --> 00:56:12,100
3150Then I made my own way.
3151
3152713
315300:56:14,430 --> 00:56:15,750
3154Until you.
3155
3156714
315700:56:16,790 --> 00:56:18,140
3158My white knight.
3159
3160715
316100:56:21,150 --> 00:56:24,180
3162Our homes are the only homes
3163I've ever known.
3164
3165716
316600:56:32,670 --> 00:56:34,500
3167You were both mine.
3168
3169717
317000:56:38,230 --> 00:56:39,220
3171How's home, Mark?
3172
3173718
317400:56:42,830 --> 00:56:44,020
3175Why are you asking?
3176
3177719
317800:56:44,750 --> 00:56:46,500
3179That daughter of yours, Jill?
3180
3181720
318200:56:48,310 --> 00:56:49,300
3183Joan.
3184
3185721
318600:56:50,350 --> 00:56:51,830
3187Well, I hear she's terrific.
3188
3189722
319000:56:53,070 --> 00:56:56,060
3191Fulbright scholar,
3192first girl in the country.
3193
3194723
319500:56:57,870 --> 00:56:59,420
3196A chip off the old block.
3197
3198724
319900:57:06,150 --> 00:57:09,620
3200I want you to be the first
3201to hear my statement to the press.
3202
3203725
320400:57:15,110 --> 00:57:16,900
3205"No pressure has been put on me
3206
3207726
320800:57:17,750 --> 00:57:21,100
3209"or any of my special agents
3210in the FBI's investigation
3211
3212727
321300:57:21,190 --> 00:57:24,620
3214"and that it strains..." I thought
3215I would just nip this in the bud.
3216
3217728
321800:57:25,190 --> 00:57:27,780
3219"It strains credulity
3220that President Nixon
3221
3222729
322300:57:27,910 --> 00:57:30,300
3224"could have done a con job
3225on the whole American people."
3226
3227730
322800:57:32,910 --> 00:57:34,310
3229What do you think?
3230
3231731
323200:57:37,150 --> 00:57:38,660
3233It's just fine.
3234
3235732
323600:57:43,670 --> 00:57:46,420
3237The Democrats
3238have issued a statement this morning.
3239
3240733
324100:57:48,150 --> 00:57:52,030
3242"The FBI's Watergate investigation
3243is a whitewash.
3244
3245734
324600:57:54,630 --> 00:57:58,860
3247"What is involved here is not only
3248the political life of this nation
3249
3250735
325100:57:59,830 --> 00:58:03,790
3252"but the very morality of our leaders
3253
3254736
325500:58:05,070 --> 00:58:08,700
3256"at a time when the United States
3257desperately needs to revitalize
3258
3259737
326000:58:08,790 --> 00:58:10,980
3261"its moral standards."
3262
3263738
326400:58:13,870 --> 00:58:17,300
3265"The FBI's Watergate investigation
3266
3267739
326800:58:19,830 --> 00:58:21,260
3269"is a whitewash."
3270
3271740
327200:58:25,630 --> 00:58:26,900
3273That's it.
3274
3275741
327600:58:33,230 --> 00:58:34,900
3277Well, gentlemen.
3278
3279742
328000:58:34,990 --> 00:58:36,500
3281Here's what we know.
3282
3283743
328400:58:37,750 --> 00:58:40,260
3285We know what we've heard
3286out of the Department of Justice
3287
3288744
328900:58:40,350 --> 00:58:42,220
3290the past two days is bullshit.
3291
3292745
329300:58:44,710 --> 00:58:47,740
3294We know the men
3295who broke into the Watergate
3296
3297746
329800:58:47,830 --> 00:58:49,500
3299are not the end of this thing,
3300
3301747
330200:58:51,190 --> 00:58:52,620
3303but the beginning.
3304
3305748
330600:58:53,590 --> 00:58:55,300
3307We know this is the latest link
3308
3309749
331000:58:55,390 --> 00:59:00,410
3311in a chain of illegal,
3312covert intelligence operations
3313
3314750
331500:59:00,830 --> 00:59:02,860
3316by the president's re-election campaign.
3317
3318751
331900:59:03,990 --> 00:59:07,300
3320We know we are facing obstruction
3321from multiple fronts.
3322
3323752
332400:59:07,390 --> 00:59:08,790
3325From the White House.
3326
3327753
332800:59:09,190 --> 00:59:10,670
3329From the CIA.
3330
3331754
333200:59:11,790 --> 00:59:14,380
3333From the Attorney General
3334of the United States,
3335
3336755
333700:59:14,470 --> 00:59:17,140
3338who is our boss, by the way.
3339
3340756
334100:59:18,350 --> 00:59:21,780
3342It is not our job to speculate
3343on the involvement of the president.
3344
3345757
334600:59:24,270 --> 00:59:26,620
3347It is our job
3348to follow the bread crumbs.
3349
3350758
335100:59:27,870 --> 00:59:31,300
3352But those bread crumbs
3353appear to be taking us
3354
3355759
335600:59:31,390 --> 00:59:33,900
3357on a tour of the West Wing
3358of the White House,
3359
3360760
336100:59:35,830 --> 00:59:38,580
3362and in the general direction
3363of the Oval Office.
3364
3365761
336600:59:40,310 --> 00:59:44,900
3367We also know we've been ordered
3368to shut down our pursuit of all this
3369
3370762
337100:59:44,990 --> 00:59:46,420
3372as of today.
3373
3374763
337500:59:47,990 --> 00:59:50,860
3376And we know that except
3377for the 30 men in this room,
3378
3379764
338000:59:52,550 --> 00:59:55,980
3381no one in the entire country
3382knows any of this
3383
3384765
338500:59:56,070 --> 00:59:58,580
3386and may never know any of this.
3387
3388766
338901:00:02,750 --> 01:00:06,260
3390No one can stop the driving force
3391of an FBI investigation.
3392
3393767
339401:00:06,950 --> 01:00:08,940
3395Not even the FBI.
3396
3397768
339801:00:37,910 --> 01:00:39,100
3399Segretti.
3400
3401769
340201:01:17,190 --> 01:01:18,860
3403I'm going to give you the name of a man
3404
3405770
340601:01:18,950 --> 01:01:21,340
3407who was asked to work
3408for the Nixon administration
3409
3410771
341101:01:22,270 --> 01:01:23,750
3412in an unusual way.
3413
3414772
341501:01:24,670 --> 01:01:25,700
3416What are you talking about?
3417
3418773
341901:01:26,710 --> 01:01:29,900
3420There's only one way to understand
3421what Watergate really means,
3422
3423774
342401:01:29,990 --> 01:01:31,180
3425and this is it.
3426
3427775
342801:01:33,270 --> 01:01:34,300
3429The name
3430
3431776
343201:01:37,030 --> 01:01:38,980
3433is Alex Shipley.
3434
3435777
343601:01:39,070 --> 01:01:40,100
3437Shipley.
3438
3439778
344001:01:41,270 --> 01:01:43,100
3441He lives in Nashville.
3442
3443779
344401:01:43,190 --> 01:01:46,820
3445The man who approached him
3446was a lawyer out of LA
3447
3448780
344901:01:46,910 --> 01:01:48,390
3450named Donald Segretti.
3451
3452781
345301:01:48,910 --> 01:01:49,900
3454Segretti.
3455
3456782
345701:01:52,110 --> 01:01:54,340
3458Shipley can tell you everything
3459you need to know.
3460
3461783
346201:01:54,910 --> 01:01:56,310
3463Will Shipley talk?
3464
3465784
346601:01:57,630 --> 01:02:00,140
3467I guess you're going
3468to have to find that out.
3469
3470785
347101:02:00,790 --> 01:02:01,820
3472One more thing.
3473
3474786
347501:02:03,670 --> 01:02:06,420
3476This comes from classified FBI files.
3477
3478787
347901:02:06,950 --> 01:02:09,740
3480The Department of Justice has it,
3481the White House has it,
3482
3483788
348401:02:11,030 --> 01:02:12,540
3485and, now, you have it.
3486
3487789
348801:02:15,270 --> 01:02:18,820
3489Let's just get on
3490with the election and stop this nonsense
3491
3492790
349301:02:18,950 --> 01:02:21,140
3494about there having been
3495a political espionage campaign
3496
3497791
349801:02:21,230 --> 01:02:22,220
3499against the Democrats.
3500
3501792
350201:02:22,310 --> 01:02:24,770
3503Here's what's making
3504the news at the top of the hour.
3505
3506793
350701:02:24,870 --> 01:02:28,980
3508North Vietnamese military attempts
3509to break through South Vietnamese lines
3510
3511794
351201:02:29,070 --> 01:02:32,850
3513have been met with an intense
3514bombing attack by a US aircraft.
3515
3516795
351701:02:32,950 --> 01:02:36,500
3518General Creighton Abrams,
3519the United States commander in Vietnam,
3520
3521796
352201:02:36,590 --> 01:02:38,660
3523ordered every available B-52
3524
3525797
352601:02:38,750 --> 01:02:40,580
3527into the northern sector
3528of South Vietnam.
3529
3530798
353101:02:40,670 --> 01:02:42,460
3532Though baseball season is over,
3533
3534799
353501:02:42,550 --> 01:02:45,940
3536the Philadelphia Phils went to
3537the Ozarks for a new manager today.
3538
3539800
354001:02:46,030 --> 01:02:49,100
3541Los Angeles coach Danny Ozark
3542was the surprise choice
3543
3544801
354501:02:49,230 --> 01:02:51,900
3546of Phils' general manager, Paul Owens.
3547
3548802
354901:02:51,990 --> 01:02:55,220
3550Ozark has had no big league
3551managerial experience...
3552
3553803
355401:03:39,510 --> 01:03:40,730
3555Mr. Woodward.
3556
3557804
355801:03:43,350 --> 01:03:44,700
3559The story isn't moving.
3560
3561805
356201:03:45,830 --> 01:03:47,700
3563Everyone stopped listening to you.
3564
3565806
356601:03:47,830 --> 01:03:49,420
3567This isn't the same as before.
3568
3569807
357001:03:52,790 --> 01:03:54,110
3571We're lost in detail.
3572
3573808
357401:03:55,630 --> 01:03:57,220
3575That's their plan.
3576
3577809
357801:03:58,230 --> 01:04:00,740
3579They want everyone confused.
3580
3581810
358201:04:01,630 --> 01:04:03,460
3583Confusion is control.
3584
3585811
358601:04:09,790 --> 01:04:12,700
3587The truth could ruin the administration.
3588
3589812
359001:04:15,790 --> 01:04:16,820
3591How high?
3592
3593813
359401:04:17,950 --> 01:04:19,270
3595How high does it go?
3596
3597814
359801:04:28,270 --> 01:04:30,500
3599You still don't understand
3600what I'm giving you.
3601
3602815
360301:04:34,750 --> 01:04:37,700
3604This is dangerous stuff
3605you're playing with.
3606
3607816
360801:04:39,070 --> 01:04:41,740
3609Especially, if it's known
3610before November 7th.
3611
3612817
361301:04:43,310 --> 01:04:45,100
3614That's election day.
3615
3616818
361701:04:45,190 --> 01:04:48,060
3618You put out the right story,
3619the public will scream.
3620
3621819
362201:04:49,310 --> 01:04:51,660
3623The Attorney General
3624will have to let me keep going.
3625
3626820
362701:05:14,790 --> 01:05:17,540
3628My editors know
3629that I'm talking to somebody,
3630
3631821
363201:05:17,670 --> 01:05:18,890
3633but not who.
3634
3635822
363601:05:18,990 --> 01:05:20,210
3637They don't ask.
3638
3639823
364001:05:25,550 --> 01:05:28,660
3641No one understands
3642how one person knows so much.
3643
3644824
364501:05:28,750 --> 01:05:31,140
3646No one can possibly know
3647how much I know.
3648
3649825
365001:05:34,870 --> 01:05:36,350
3651With all this mystery,
3652
3653826
365401:05:37,630 --> 01:05:39,820
3655there's a nickname for you at the paper.
3656
3657827
365801:05:42,470 --> 01:05:44,620
3659- Deep Throat.
3660- What?
3661
3662828
366301:05:45,070 --> 01:05:47,020
3664They didn't know what else to call you.
3665
3666829
366701:05:48,110 --> 01:05:49,140
3668That's just...
3669
3670830
367101:05:50,870 --> 01:05:53,020
3672They shouldn't have to call me anything.
3673
3674831
367501:06:02,950 --> 01:06:05,220
3676Take out your notebook. There's more.
3677
3678832
367901:06:17,950 --> 01:06:22,100
3680"FBI agents have established

3701
3702837
370301:06:31,510 --> 01:06:32,860
3704The White House
3705is vigorously denouncing a story
3706
3707838
370801:06:32,950 --> 01:06:34,350
3709in The Washington Post this morning

3714of engaging in a secret political war.

3716840
371701:06:38,190 --> 01:06:41,020

3720
3721841
372201:06:41,110 --> 01:06:43,300

3727Based on baseless,

3737
3738845
373901:06:55,030 --> 01:06:56,900

374701:06:59,430 --> 01:07:01,340
3748"One federal investigative
3749official said..."
3750
3751848
375201:07:01,430 --> 01:07:03,260
3753"According to FBI reports..."
3754
3755849
375601:07:03,350 --> 01:07:04,830
3757That's us, God damn it.
3758
3759850
376001:07:07,190 --> 01:07:11,780
3761There is information in here
3762that the bureau only got 72 hours ago.
3763
3764851
376501:07:11,990 --> 01:07:13,900
3766Are you goddamn joking?
3767
3768852
376901:07:15,590 --> 01:07:18,380
3770Mr. Felt,
3771you had something you wanted to say.
3772
3773853
377401:07:23,430 --> 01:07:25,620
3775The last few days,
3776I've heard various people
3777
3778854
377901:07:25,710 --> 01:07:28,170
3780accuse Mr. Lano of leaking to the press.
3781
3782855
378301:07:28,270 --> 01:07:29,750
3784- You've got to be kidding me!
3785- Him?
3786
3787856
378801:07:30,630 --> 01:07:32,980
3789And that he
3790and certain newspaper reporters
3791
3792857
379301:07:33,470 --> 01:07:35,380
3794- have been seen together.
3795- I'm going to be sick.
3796
3797858
379801:07:35,470 --> 01:07:38,300
3799I wanted to say to you, Mr. Lano,
3800in front of everyone here
3801
3802859
380301:07:38,910 --> 01:07:41,900
3804that I know these are
3805vicious lies by jealous agents.
3806
3807860
380801:07:43,950 --> 01:07:46,220
3809You're doing a fine job,
3810and no matter what,
3811
3812861
381301:07:46,310 --> 01:07:47,820
3814the director and I will support you.
3815
3816862
381701:07:48,710 --> 01:07:50,030
3818Mr. Gray.
3819
3820863
382101:07:51,710 --> 01:07:54,700
3822I may not be an FBI lifer
3823like some of you.
3824
3825864
382601:07:55,630 --> 01:07:57,540
3827I'm certainly no Mark Felt.
3828
3829865
383001:07:58,030 --> 01:08:01,260
3831Since I arrived here,
3832I have put up with paranoia,
3833
3834866
383501:08:01,750 --> 01:08:04,020
3836insubordination, second-guessing.
3837
3838867
383901:08:04,110 --> 01:08:06,060
3840Gentlemen, it's come to Jesus time.
3841
3842868
384301:08:08,030 --> 01:08:12,820
3844Whoever the leaker is,
3845whoever is the Judas among you,
3846
3847869
384801:08:12,910 --> 01:08:16,500
3849betraying me,
3850the other good men in this room,
3851
3852870
385301:08:16,590 --> 01:08:18,140
3854his family, God,
3855
3856871
385701:08:18,230 --> 01:08:21,340
3858not to mention the bureau
3859and the legacy of J. Edgar Hoover,
3860
3861872
386201:08:21,430 --> 01:08:22,460
3863step forward.
3864
3865873
386601:08:24,430 --> 01:08:27,420
3867Right here, right now.
3868
3869874
387001:08:52,190 --> 01:08:56,180
3871Charlie, we got an office pool
3872on who the leak is.
3873
3874875
387501:08:56,990 --> 01:08:58,700
3876My money's on you.
3877
3878876
387901:09:19,950 --> 01:09:21,500
3880It's just one big game, Charlie.
3881
3882877
388301:09:23,310 --> 01:09:25,740
3884We're all just chess pieces.
3885You gotta remember that.
3886
3887878
388801:09:28,190 --> 01:09:29,980
3889What's the body count?
3890
3891879
389201:09:31,070 --> 01:09:32,700
3893Eight, so far.
3894
3895880
389601:09:33,190 --> 01:09:36,580
3897You, me, a few guys on my team.
3898
3899881
390001:09:39,950 --> 01:09:42,670
3901- Where are they sending you?
3902- St. Louis.
3903
3904882
390501:09:44,870 --> 01:09:46,900
3906But I don't know
3907how much more I have left in me.
3908
3909883
391001:09:48,590 --> 01:09:49,660
3911You?
3912
3913884
391401:09:50,710 --> 01:09:51,930
3915San Francisco.
3916
3917885
391801:09:53,070 --> 01:09:54,390
3919Well, at least, it's Frisco.
3920
3921886
392201:09:55,270 --> 01:09:56,300
3923Yeah.
3924
3925887
392601:09:58,630 --> 01:09:59,660
3927Great.
3928
3929888
393001:10:01,710 --> 01:10:03,780
3931How many years you put in here, Charlie?
3932
3933889
393401:10:11,030 --> 01:10:12,060
3935The whole run.
3936
3937890
393801:10:13,350 --> 01:10:14,860
3939My kids were born here.
3940
3941891
394201:10:20,790 --> 01:10:23,140
3943Whatever Watergate was,
3944whatever it wasn't,
3945
3946892
394701:10:23,230 --> 01:10:26,220
3948the American people don't seem
3949to understand, nor care,
3950
3951893
395201:10:26,470 --> 01:10:29,300
3953as Nixon has won in a landslide.
3954
3955894
395601:10:39,750 --> 01:10:41,940
3957I appreciate you taking the time,
3958Mr. Felt.
3959
3960895
396101:10:42,590 --> 01:10:45,780
3962I always take care of my people,
3963Mr. Bates.
3964
3965896
396601:10:48,310 --> 01:10:50,770
3967In fact, my father always said to me,
3968
3969897
397001:10:51,150 --> 01:10:57,180
3971"Mark, whatever we do,
3972we have to make our lives vectors."
3973
3974898
397501:10:57,510 --> 01:11:01,860
3976Lines with force and direction.
3977
3978899
397901:11:06,830 --> 01:11:11,950
3980You have to destroy anything
3981that is sick beyond repair
3982
3983900
398401:11:12,030 --> 01:11:15,060
3985to rescue it from its agony.
3986
3987901
398801:11:15,150 --> 01:11:16,220
3989Mark.
3990
3991902
399201:11:17,390 --> 01:11:18,380
3993And...
3994
3995903
399601:11:19,150 --> 01:11:23,140
3997And the agony it causes everyone else,
3998Mr. Bates.
3999
4000904
400101:11:31,910 --> 01:11:35,020
4002It was thought that he might
4003have a little bit of difficulty.
4004
4005905
400601:11:49,470 --> 01:11:51,740
4007- Mr. Felt.
4008- What are you doing, Charlie?
4009
4010906
401101:11:57,310 --> 01:11:59,380
4012What is it, Mr. Bates?
4013
4014907
401501:12:11,510 --> 01:12:13,900
4016Here's to you. Bravo.
4017
4018908
401901:13:27,630 --> 01:13:29,900
4020Genesis commune.
4021
4022909
402301:13:29,990 --> 01:13:31,780
4024Ben Lomond, California.
4025
4026910
402701:13:32,430 --> 01:13:33,540
4028Check it thoroughly.
4029
4030911
403101:13:56,550 --> 01:13:59,380
4032These leaks
4033are driving the White House crazy.
4034
4035912
403601:14:01,070 --> 01:14:02,900
4037The White House
4038thinks it knows who it is.
4039
4040913
404101:14:04,750 --> 01:14:06,150
4042Your name came up.
4043
4044914
404501:14:09,590 --> 01:14:15,420
4046Do you have any idea
4047what that would mean?
4048
4049915
405001:14:15,790 --> 01:14:17,300
4051Treason, for one.
4052
4053916
405401:14:18,030 --> 01:14:21,020
4055Betrayal of everything
4056the FBI stands for, for another.
4057
4058917
405901:14:21,110 --> 01:14:22,860
4060Everything you stand for.
4061
4062918
406301:14:23,790 --> 01:14:25,380
4064So, why would I do it?
4065
4066919
406701:14:26,150 --> 01:14:27,220
4068I don't know.
4069
4070920
407101:14:28,590 --> 01:14:30,540
4072I can't imagine their thinking.
4073
4074921
407501:14:33,790 --> 01:14:35,700
4076Why don't they fire me then?
4077
4078922
407901:14:36,430 --> 01:14:37,830
4080You know everything.
4081
4082923
408301:14:38,870 --> 01:14:42,910
4084To them, the only thing worse
4085than keeping you is firing you.
4086
4087924
408801:14:47,310 --> 01:14:49,020
4089Dean did say something strange.
4090
4091925
409201:14:49,470 --> 01:14:52,300
4093Apparently, they know everything
4094going on inside our shop.
4095
4096926
409701:14:52,830 --> 01:14:55,940
4098- They have a source.
4099- Inside the FBI?
4100
4101927
410201:14:56,510 --> 01:15:01,740
4103He said they hear everything.
4104
4105928
410601:15:21,670 --> 01:15:24,060
4107We just swept your office for bugs,
4108Mr. Felt.
4109
4110929
411101:15:24,150 --> 01:15:25,550
4112Do it again!
4113
4114930
411501:15:43,390 --> 01:15:44,660
4116The knives are out.
4117
4118931
411901:15:45,630 --> 01:15:47,030
4120More than you know.
4121
4122932
412301:15:48,230 --> 01:15:49,340
4124Am I safe?
4125
4126933
412701:15:49,990 --> 01:15:51,020
4128No one is.
4129
4130934
413101:15:52,230 --> 01:15:55,260
4132The White House
4133is gonna sanitize the entire town.
4134
4135935
413601:15:55,430 --> 01:15:59,020
4137The director of Central Intelligence
4138will be gone by morning.
4139
4140936
414101:15:59,110 --> 01:16:00,220
4142Why?
4143
4144937
414501:16:00,310 --> 01:16:03,620
4146Apparently, he couldn't
4147smoke you out fast enough.
4148
4149938
415001:16:05,190 --> 01:16:06,300
4151The source
4152
4153939
415401:16:07,750 --> 01:16:09,300
4155of all those stories.
4156
4157940
415801:16:11,870 --> 01:16:13,500
4159Where does the CIA stand?
4160
4161941
416201:16:14,790 --> 01:16:16,940
4163The CIA is building a wall.
4164
4165942
416601:16:18,310 --> 01:16:19,420
4167We'll stay out of your way,
4168
4169943
417001:16:19,510 --> 01:16:21,420
4171but if we're forced
4172to protect ourselves,
4173
4174944
417501:16:21,910 --> 01:16:22,900
4176we will.
4177
4178945
417901:16:24,030 --> 01:16:27,340
4180The FBI will
4181never reach the CIA on this.
4182
4183946
418401:16:27,430 --> 01:16:28,700
4185And the White House?
4186
4187947
418801:16:29,430 --> 01:16:32,070
4189Presidents come and go,
4190
4191948
419201:16:32,190 --> 01:16:33,670
4193but the CIA stays.
4194
4195949
419601:16:34,310 --> 01:16:35,660
4197The FBI stays.
4198
4199950
420001:16:37,910 --> 01:16:39,390
4201We are the constants.
4202
4203951
420401:16:41,110 --> 01:16:42,380
4205I almost forgot.
4206
4207952
420801:16:43,750 --> 01:16:47,380
4209Time magazine's person of the year
4210is going to be Richard Nixon.
4211
4212953
421301:16:51,550 --> 01:16:52,820
4214I thought you'd like to know.
4215
4216954
421701:16:55,910 --> 01:16:56,940
4218Happy holidays.
4219
4220955
422101:17:36,550 --> 01:17:39,300
4222The president told me
4223the unthinkable has happened.
4224
4225956
422601:17:40,190 --> 01:17:41,980
4227He actually misses Hoover.
4228
4229957
423001:17:43,230 --> 01:17:45,380
4231"Hoover would have gotten
4232the dogs off him," he said.
4233
4234958
423501:17:46,270 --> 01:17:48,260
4236"He'd have everyone scared to death."
4237
4238959
423901:17:57,550 --> 01:18:00,700
4240The White House is going
4241to make me director permanently.
4242
4243960
424401:18:01,830 --> 01:18:03,020
4245Congratulations.
4246
4247961
424801:18:07,670 --> 01:18:09,780
4249Bill Sullivan
4250will be my number two.
4251
4252962
425301:18:20,950 --> 01:18:22,820
4254You know what the president
4255said to me today?
4256
4257963
425801:18:22,950 --> 01:18:26,780
4259He said, "The Germans had the right idea
4260during World War II.
4261
4262964
426301:18:28,190 --> 01:18:32,070
4264"If they went through a town and one
4265of their soldiers got hit by a sniper,
4266
4267965
426801:18:32,150 --> 01:18:35,500
4269"they'd line up the whole goddamn town
4270and kill everyone."
4271
4272966
427301:18:38,110 --> 01:18:42,180
4274He said,
4275"It's time to clean out the FBI."
4276
4277967
427801:18:47,630 --> 01:18:49,660
4279You know what that will mean for me.
4280
4281968
428201:18:49,750 --> 01:18:51,340
4283Remember, they're afraid of you.
4284
4285969
428601:18:57,950 --> 01:19:00,980
4287Mark, if you did know something,
4288you could come to me.
4289
4290970
429101:19:01,470 --> 01:19:04,110
4292We'd be able to work it out together.
4293We could do something about it.
4294
4295971
429601:19:06,390 --> 01:19:08,260
4297I can't protect you anymore.
4298
4299972
430001:19:11,470 --> 01:19:12,980
4301Just give 'em what they want.
4302
4303973
430401:19:14,750 --> 01:19:16,580
4305The traitor's head on a platter.
4306
4307974
430801:20:05,350 --> 01:20:07,500
4309So, the president asked me
4310what he should do.
4311
4312975
431301:20:07,590 --> 01:20:11,300
4314And, I tell him, get rid of everyone
4315in the interest of the nation.
4316
4317976
431801:20:11,910 --> 01:20:13,500
4319I didn't mean me, of course.
4320
4321977
432201:20:18,590 --> 01:20:20,420
4323You don't have many friends left,
4324you know.
4325
4326978
432701:20:21,310 --> 01:20:24,660
4328A bunch of your FBI pals
4329told me to cut your nuts off.
4330
4331979
433201:20:28,270 --> 01:20:30,340
4333Think they'll let you keep your badge?
4334
4335980
433601:20:31,430 --> 01:20:33,260
4337You got a lot of people worried
4338in Washington.
4339
4340981
434101:20:33,830 --> 01:20:35,420
4342They think
4343you're gonna unwrap everything.
4344
4345982
434601:20:36,030 --> 01:20:37,660
4347Everything from all the years.
4348
4349983
435001:20:38,110 --> 01:20:42,700
4351Everything we, you and I, know.
4352
4353984
435401:20:42,990 --> 01:20:44,540
4355Is that what you want to know, Bill?
4356
4357985
435801:20:46,150 --> 01:20:48,660
4359This your last little errand?
4360
4361986
436201:20:50,790 --> 01:20:52,460
4363To help the president sleep at night.
4364
4365987
436601:20:54,590 --> 01:20:56,660
4367I'm just sayin', you open those scabs,
4368
4369988
437001:20:58,430 --> 01:20:59,780
4371a lot of things underneath.
4372
4373989
437401:21:00,990 --> 01:21:02,620
4375Just remember, no one likes informers.
4376
4377990
437801:21:03,670 --> 01:21:05,500
4379They only remember you as a rat,
4380
4381991
438201:21:05,830 --> 01:21:09,140
4383even if you were their...
4384Even if you were their rat!
4385
4386992
438701:21:16,350 --> 01:21:19,900
4388Mr. Felt, Mr. Miller's on the phone.
4389He needs to speak with you.
4390
4391993
439201:21:37,950 --> 01:21:40,300
4393- This is Special Agent Clark.
4394- I don't want to know his name.
4395
4396994
439701:21:41,550 --> 01:21:43,300
4398Tell him what you told Mr. Bates and me.
4399
4400995
440101:21:44,110 --> 01:21:46,020
4402I don't think you have anything
4403to worry about, Mr. Felt.
4404
4405996
440601:21:47,910 --> 01:21:49,260
4407You don't think.
4408
4409997
441001:21:49,350 --> 01:21:50,420
4411Specific.
4412
4413998
441401:21:56,550 --> 01:21:59,460
4415The commune where the subject,
4416Joan Felt...
4417
4418999
441901:21:59,590 --> 01:22:00,940
4420Do not say her name.
4421
44221000
442301:22:06,070 --> 01:22:07,100
4424Where the target is...
4425
44261001
442701:22:09,110 --> 01:22:10,940
4428Definitely some people
4429of interest in there.
4430
44311002
443201:22:12,990 --> 01:22:15,220
4433- Maybe some with the Underground.
4434- But the target?
4435
44361003
443701:22:18,510 --> 01:22:19,940
4438If you ask me,
4439
44401004
444101:22:21,270 --> 01:22:23,380
4442just someone's kid
4443looking for a way home.
4444
44451005
444601:22:34,830 --> 01:22:36,980
4447We never spoke. No paper.
4448
44491006
445001:22:37,070 --> 01:22:38,220
4451You don't know anything.
4452
44531007
445401:23:08,350 --> 01:23:10,060
4455Do you know your physics, Sandy?
4456
44571008
445801:23:12,350 --> 01:23:13,860
4459If you tap repeatedly
4460
44611009
446201:23:14,790 --> 01:23:17,620
4463on the post of a building,
4464and the tapping is relentless,
4465
44661010
446701:23:20,150 --> 01:23:21,370
4468it creates a rhythm.
4469
44701011
447101:23:22,830 --> 01:23:26,260
4472If you do that long enough
4473and steadily enough, it will feed back.
4474
44751012
447601:23:26,350 --> 01:23:28,460
4477The frequencies will align,
4478
44791013
448001:23:28,550 --> 01:23:30,500
4481the molecules will scramble,
4482
44831014
448401:23:30,590 --> 01:23:35,460
4485and the whole thing, the whole building
4486will come apart from the inside
4487
44881015
448901:23:35,590 --> 01:23:37,180
4490and collapse in on itself,
4491
44921016
449301:23:37,310 --> 01:23:39,340
4494and all come tumbling down.
4495
44961017
449701:23:40,870 --> 01:23:42,860
4498The molecules are beginning to scramble.
4499
45001018
450101:23:42,950 --> 01:23:45,980
4502The FBI is coming apart.
4503Do you know where that takes us?
4504
45051019
450601:23:46,310 --> 01:23:49,460
4507Do you want a country
4508this big, this angry, this confused
4509
45101020
451101:23:49,550 --> 01:23:51,140
4512without a police department?
4513
45141021
451501:23:56,470 --> 01:23:57,790
4516Get out your notebook.
4517
45181022
451901:24:00,230 --> 01:24:02,870
4520May, 1969 and February, 1971.
4521
45221023
452301:24:02,950 --> 01:24:06,620
4524Mark, are you sure about this?
4525
45261024
452701:24:06,750 --> 01:24:09,780
4528Between those dates,
4529White House employees were wiretapped.
4530
45311025
453201:24:09,870 --> 01:24:12,700
4533Many of them aides
4534to the Secretary of State
4535
45361026
453701:24:12,950 --> 01:24:15,620
4538and five reporters,
4539including The New York Times.
4540
45411027
454201:24:17,110 --> 01:24:18,430
4543You're kidding.
4544
45451028
454601:24:22,830 --> 01:24:25,470
4547- This is hard for you.
4548- What part?
4549
45501029
455101:24:27,830 --> 01:24:29,580
4552All this truth.
4553
45541030
455501:24:32,150 --> 01:24:34,900
4556The truth is hard for you.
4557
45581031
455901:24:42,310 --> 01:24:46,620
4560The FBI illegally,
4561unconstitutionally and reprehensibly
4562
45631032
456401:24:46,710 --> 01:24:49,140
4565bugged and taped
4566
45671033
456801:24:49,230 --> 01:24:51,580
4569and secretly photographed
4570and memorialized
4571
45721034
457301:24:51,670 --> 01:24:53,820
4574every move that those people made.
4575
45761035
457701:24:54,670 --> 01:24:58,060
4578Them and their wives and
4579their mistresses and homosexual lovers.
4580
45811036
458201:25:01,350 --> 01:25:03,180
4583- Who did the wiretaps?
4584- Bill Sullivan.
4585
45861037
458701:25:03,390 --> 01:25:05,780
4588It became a rogue FBI operation.
4589
45901038
459101:25:06,390 --> 01:25:09,380
4592Sullivan drove it. Sullivan and
4593the White House by themselves.
4594
45951039
459601:25:11,430 --> 01:25:12,700
4597How 'bout you?
4598
45991040
460001:25:14,670 --> 01:25:15,890
4601What do you know?
4602
46031041
460401:25:15,990 --> 01:25:20,620
4605About everything else,
4606I knew every sordid little detail.
4607
46081042
460901:25:20,710 --> 01:25:22,030
4610But not this.
4611
46121043
461301:25:22,870 --> 01:25:24,460
4614They knew
4615they couldn't tell me about this.
4616
46171044
461801:25:25,510 --> 01:25:26,860
4619Yeah, they couldn't count on you.
4620
46211045
462201:25:28,430 --> 01:25:32,740
4623The White House is packing
4624all its crimes in separate little boxes.
4625
46261046
462701:25:32,830 --> 01:25:36,140
4628Watergate, the spying,
4629the ugliness, the rot.
4630
46311047
463201:25:36,630 --> 01:25:39,580
4633Each thing in a different box,
4634so that no one can put it together,
4635
46361048
463701:25:39,670 --> 01:25:41,940
4638so that no one sees it's all connected.
4639
46401049
464101:25:42,030 --> 01:25:45,810
4642And no one will care.
4643But it's all the same big thing.
4644
46451050
464601:25:49,470 --> 01:25:52,500
4647And Watergate? Just the gateway.
4648
46491051
465001:25:58,550 --> 01:26:01,190
4651Can you get the story out
4652before Gray's confirmation hearing?
4653
46541052
465501:26:02,630 --> 01:26:03,980
4656What you're doing
4657
46581053
465901:26:05,510 --> 01:26:08,020
4660will bring down
4661the whole house of cards.
4662
46631054
466401:26:10,710 --> 01:26:13,140
4665But then, you already knew that.
4666
46671055
466801:26:17,030 --> 01:26:18,740
4669Gray is ready to fall now.
4670
46711056
467201:26:19,270 --> 01:26:20,820
4673Watch where it leads.
4674
46751057
467601:26:36,990 --> 01:26:38,820
4677Any last-minute advice?
4678
46791058
468001:26:40,990 --> 01:26:42,500
4681We've gone over everything.
4682
46831059
468401:26:43,710 --> 01:26:45,300
4685They'll go easy.
4686
46871060
468801:26:46,030 --> 01:26:48,020
4689You're the president's man.
4690
46911061
469201:26:50,670 --> 01:26:52,900
4693Mr. Gray. What about this?
4694
46951062
469601:26:54,670 --> 01:26:56,700
4697I don't know what my position should be.
4698
46991063
470001:26:58,310 --> 01:26:59,980
4701It was before your time.
4702
47031064
470401:27:01,790 --> 01:27:03,220
4705Tell the truth.
4706
47071065
470801:27:04,470 --> 01:27:06,100
4709No one can argue with the truth.
4710
47111066
471201:27:08,710 --> 01:27:11,700
4713Mr. Gray, this Time magazine
4714article by Sandy Smith
4715
47161067
471701:27:11,790 --> 01:27:15,670
4718contains information on alleged wiretaps
4719requested by the White House
4720
47211068
472201:27:15,750 --> 01:27:17,500
4723installed by the FBI.
4724
47251069
472601:27:17,590 --> 01:27:19,100
4727How do you respond to these charges?
4728
47291070
473001:27:20,310 --> 01:27:22,060
4731It was before my time, Senator.
4732
47331071
473401:27:24,990 --> 01:27:27,630
4735What about the assertion in this article
4736
47371072
473801:27:27,870 --> 01:27:31,100
4739that a White House aide
4740slipped Donald Segretti,
4741
47421073
474301:27:31,190 --> 01:27:34,020
4744a target of the bureau's
4745Watergate investigation,
4746
47471074
474801:27:34,110 --> 01:27:36,020
4749copies of what the FBI had?
4750
47511075
475201:27:36,630 --> 01:27:37,950
4753We didn't look into that.
4754
47551076
475601:27:38,030 --> 01:27:40,340
4757- Why on Earth not?
4758- I'll have to look into that.
4759
47601077
476101:27:40,470 --> 01:27:43,340
4762Did you know that the White
4763House had your confidential file?
4764
47651078
476601:27:45,390 --> 01:27:46,980
4767I did. Yes, Senator.
4768
47691079
477001:27:56,590 --> 01:27:58,460
4771Let me tell you
4772how that might have happened.
4773
47741080
477501:27:58,550 --> 01:27:59,740
4776Please do.
4777
47781081
477901:27:59,830 --> 01:28:02,340
4780White House counsel
4781John Dean told me
4782
47831082
478401:28:02,430 --> 01:28:06,340
4785the White House wanted everything
4786the FBI had on Watergate
4787
47881083
478901:28:06,430 --> 01:28:08,500
4790to help with its own investigation.
4791
47921084
479301:28:09,470 --> 01:28:11,700
4794Mr. Dean took all those FBI files.
4795
47961085
479701:28:11,830 --> 01:28:14,550
4798How many Bureau reports
4799are we talking about?
4800
48011086
480201:28:14,790 --> 01:28:17,820
4803How many reports did you give Mr. Dean?
4804
48051087
480601:28:18,790 --> 01:28:20,380
4807I believe it was 82.
4808
48091088
481001:28:21,350 --> 01:28:25,620
4811As the acting director of the FBI,
4812why on Earth would you do that?
4813
48141089
481501:28:25,790 --> 01:28:28,020
4816- Because I was told to.
4817- By who?
4818
48191090
482001:28:28,110 --> 01:28:29,740
4821Who would have ordered that?
4822
48231091
482401:28:36,950 --> 01:28:39,220
4825The president.
4826
48271092
482801:28:41,750 --> 01:28:44,980
4829One of the most difficult
4830decisions of my presidency,
4831
48321093
483301:28:45,070 --> 01:28:46,620
4834I accepted the resignations
4835
48361094
483701:28:46,710 --> 01:28:50,020
4838of two of my closest associates
4839in the White House,
4840
48411095
484201:28:50,110 --> 01:28:52,750
4843Bob Haldeman and John Ehrlichman.
4844
48451096
484601:28:52,830 --> 01:28:57,620
4847The counsel to the president,
4848John Dean, has also resigned.
4849
48501097
485101:28:58,070 --> 01:29:00,300
4852The nation tonight
4853is in the midst of what may be
4854
48551098
485601:29:00,390 --> 01:29:04,020
4857the most critical constitutional crisis
4858in its history.
4859
48601099
486101:29:04,110 --> 01:29:08,500
4862As a result of the president's action,
4863the Attorney General has resigned.
4864
48651100
486601:29:09,750 --> 01:29:13,060
4867L. Patrick Gray,
4868head of the FBI for nearly a year,
4869
48701101
487101:29:13,190 --> 01:29:17,100
4872will now never take the chair
4873occupied by J. Edgar Hoover.
4874
48751102
487601:29:17,190 --> 01:29:19,140
4877John Dean told me,
4878during a conversation,
4879
48801103
488101:29:19,230 --> 01:29:21,340
4882that the White House
4883masterminded a cover-up.
4884
48851104
488601:29:21,430 --> 01:29:22,860
4887I began by telling the president
4888
48891105
489001:29:22,990 --> 01:29:25,260
4891that there was a cancer growing
4892on the presidency,
4893
48941106
489501:29:25,350 --> 01:29:28,380
4896that it was important this cancer
4897be removed immediately
4898
48991107
490001:29:28,470 --> 01:29:30,930
4901because it was growing
4902more deadly every day.
4903
49041108
490501:29:40,630 --> 01:29:41,950
4906I found Joan.
4907
49081109
490901:29:43,150 --> 01:29:44,660
4910Let's go get her.
4911
49121110
491301:30:00,990 --> 01:30:03,630
4914Oh, my God. It's my parents.
4915
49161111
491701:30:13,750 --> 01:30:15,700
4918It's all right. I know.
4919
49201112
492101:30:24,310 --> 01:30:25,660
4922Mark?
4923
49241113
492501:30:36,270 --> 01:30:37,670
4926Dad.
4927
49281114
492901:30:53,710 --> 01:30:55,060
4930This is your grandson.
4931
49321115
493301:30:58,310 --> 01:31:00,180
4934Come here, sweetheart.
4935
49361116
493701:31:00,830 --> 01:31:01,820
4938There we go.
4939
49401117
494101:31:15,790 --> 01:31:17,540
4942I had this feeling when I was little,
4943
49441118
494501:31:21,510 --> 01:31:23,100
4946that I couldn't see into his eyes,
4947
49481119
494901:31:28,670 --> 01:31:30,100
4950that he didn't approve of me.
4951
49521120
495301:31:33,830 --> 01:31:38,180
4954That he was holding me up
4955to some impossible standard.
4956
49571121
495801:31:42,710 --> 01:31:43,930
4959That was me.
4960
49611122
496201:31:49,110 --> 01:31:50,780
4963When you were sick and you were little,
4964
49651123
496601:31:50,870 --> 01:31:52,980
4967it was your father
4968who climbed into bed with you
4969
49701124
497101:31:53,950 --> 01:31:55,460
4972in his shoes,
4973
49741125
497501:31:56,670 --> 01:31:58,150
4976his holster, his suit.
4977
49781126
497901:32:00,990 --> 01:32:05,060
4980He'd sit with you for hours
4981and rock you till you fell back asleep.
4982
49831127
498401:32:58,190 --> 01:33:01,900
4985Oh!
4986Look at that big baby.
4987
49881128
498901:33:12,790 --> 01:33:13,820
4990Thank you.
4991
49921129
499301:33:16,910 --> 01:33:19,340
4994- Mr. Director? We're ready.
4995- Mr. Felt.
4996
49971130
499801:33:26,030 --> 01:33:27,700
4999- Mark.
5000- Mr. Ruckelshaus.
5001
50021131
500301:33:31,750 --> 01:33:33,020
5004Thank you.
5005
50061132
500701:33:34,190 --> 01:33:37,260
5008Mr. Felt, thank you
5009for 31 years of service
5010
50111133
501201:33:37,350 --> 01:33:39,140
5013to the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
5014
50151134
501601:33:39,750 --> 01:33:41,380
5017- Thank you.
5018- Hear, hear!
5019
50201135
502101:33:51,390 --> 01:33:52,610
5022Congratulations.
5023
50241136
502501:34:26,510 --> 01:34:28,500
5026- Hey, congratulations.
5027- Good luck, Mark.
5028
50291137
503001:34:28,630 --> 01:34:29,820
5031Well done, Mark.
5032
50331138
503401:34:33,110 --> 01:34:34,220
5035Congratulations, sir.
5036
50371139
503801:34:34,310 --> 01:34:36,620
5039I have never been a quitter.
5040
50411140
504201:34:37,230 --> 01:34:39,820
5043To leave office
5044before my term is completed
5045
50461141
504701:34:39,910 --> 01:34:42,630
5048is abhorrent to
5049every instinct in my body.
5050
50511142
505201:34:44,830 --> 01:34:46,260
5053But as president,
5054
50551143
505601:34:46,630 --> 01:34:49,740
5057I must put
5058the interests of America first.
5059
50601144
506101:34:56,630 --> 01:34:57,660
5062Therefore,
5063
50641145
506501:34:58,830 --> 01:35:02,420
5066I shall resign the presidency
5067effective at noon tomorrow.
5068
50691146
507001:35:03,390 --> 01:35:07,460
5071Vice President Ford,
5072will be sworn in as president
5073
50741147
507501:35:07,790 --> 01:35:10,460
5076at that hour, in this office.
5077
50781148
507901:35:20,430 --> 01:35:22,540
5080Counterespionage expert.
5081
50821149
508301:35:22,630 --> 01:35:23,780
5084Nazi hunter.
5085
50861150
508701:35:25,550 --> 01:35:27,980
5088You, Mr. Felt, are the G-man's G-man,
5089
50901151
509101:35:28,950 --> 01:35:30,140
5092a hero and a patriot,
5093
50941152
509501:35:31,270 --> 01:35:33,100
5096and we are a grateful nation.
5097
50981153
509901:35:34,350 --> 01:35:37,380
5100Ladies and gentlemen,
5101for the past few weeks
5102
51031154
510401:35:37,510 --> 01:35:40,380
5105you've heard through testimony
5106the sounds of the bombs
5107
51081155
510901:35:40,470 --> 01:35:43,860
5110of the PLO and the Weather Underground
5111ringing in your ears.
5112
51131156
511401:35:43,950 --> 01:35:45,580
5115People died.
5116
51171157
511801:35:45,670 --> 01:35:48,310
5119We were a nation at war
5120at home and abroad.
5121
51221158
512301:35:49,150 --> 01:35:50,500
5124We don't dispute that.
5125
51261159
512701:35:51,470 --> 01:35:54,260
5128Now, we ask you to listen
5129for the sound of the Constitution.
5130
51311160
513201:35:56,710 --> 01:35:57,740
5133You hear that?
5134
51351161
513601:35:59,230 --> 01:36:01,260
5137It doesn't make quite as much noise
5138as a bomb, does it?
5139
51401162
514101:36:02,950 --> 01:36:05,820
5142It just sits there, silent,
5143like our conscience,
5144
51451163
514601:36:05,910 --> 01:36:09,620
5147just as it's done
5148for the last 200 years.
5149
51501164
515101:36:10,350 --> 01:36:11,570
5152Mr. Felt.
5153
51541165
515501:36:13,190 --> 01:36:14,980
5156On September 8th, 1972,
5157
51581166
515901:36:15,110 --> 01:36:19,100
5160did you order 143 FBI agents
5161across the country
5162
51631167
516401:36:19,190 --> 01:36:20,700
5165to break into the homes of relatives
5166
51671168
516801:36:20,790 --> 01:36:22,740
5169of alleged members
5170of the Weather Underground,
5171
51721169
517301:36:22,830 --> 01:36:24,740
5174to wiretap their phones
5175and bug their homes?
5176
51771170
517801:36:24,870 --> 01:36:26,500
5179- Yes.
5180- Who else?
5181
51821171
518301:36:26,830 --> 01:36:27,860
5184Who else what?
5185
51861172
518701:36:27,950 --> 01:36:29,980
5188Who else participated
5189in giving those orders?
5190
51911173
519201:36:33,350 --> 01:36:36,140
5193- Assistant Director Edward Miller?
5194- I gave the order.
5195
51961174
519701:36:36,230 --> 01:36:38,820
5198Acting Director
5199L. Patrick Gray the third?
5200
52011175
520201:36:38,910 --> 01:36:40,500
5203I gave the order.
5204
52051176
520601:36:40,990 --> 01:36:41,980
5207Charles Bates?
5208
52091177
521001:36:47,470 --> 01:36:49,140
5211You're really gonna
5212sit there and do that?
5213
52141178
521501:36:50,830 --> 01:36:53,550
5216You're really gonna take that on
5217for everybody?
5218
52191179
522001:36:54,670 --> 01:36:55,990
5221I gave the order.
5222
52231180
522401:36:56,870 --> 01:36:59,460
5225Mr. Felt, you stated that you
5226
52271181
522801:36:59,550 --> 01:37:01,940
5229frequently briefed
5230the Nixon White House on the case.
5231
52321182
523301:37:02,030 --> 01:37:06,220
5234Maybe you could just give us
5235a quick snapshot on how that all worked.
5236
52371183
523801:37:07,390 --> 01:37:11,780
5239I was in constant contact
5240with the White House on many matters.
5241
52421184
524301:37:14,470 --> 01:37:17,140
5244In fact, I was in the
5245Oval Office so often,
5246
52471185
524801:37:18,150 --> 01:37:21,180
5249people used to say
5250I had to be Deep Throat.
5251
52521186
525301:37:28,030 --> 01:37:29,700
5254What did you just say?
5255
52561187
525701:37:30,030 --> 01:37:34,380
5258I said I was with the White House,
5259Dean and so forth, so often,
5260
52611188
526201:37:34,470 --> 01:37:38,660
5263people thought I was The Washington
5264Post's source for Watergate.
5265
52661189
526701:37:38,990 --> 01:37:41,020
5268The person they called, "Deep Throat."
5269
52701190
527101:37:49,670 --> 01:37:51,340
5272Before the witness is excused,
5273
52741191
527501:37:53,190 --> 01:37:54,820
5276are there any questions from the jury?
5277
52781192
527901:37:58,430 --> 01:38:00,300
5280Well, were you?
5281
52821193
528301:38:01,470 --> 01:38:05,140
5284- Was I what?
5285- Were you Deep Throat?
