| LEO: I think you’re putting too much faith in the magical powers of a new shirt. SAM: They’re expecting trouble with the National Geographic Society? LEO: I have no explanation for this. SAM: Well, those little postcards in the subscription magazines drive ME out of my mind, so maybe… LEO: A little thing called team morale, Josh, gotta make people feel good about themselves. Shut the hell up everybody, I fired more people than you before breakfast! TOBY: In my day we knew how to protest. CJ: What day was that? TOBY: 1968. JOSH: Then how old were you when you were protesting? TOBY: My sisters took me. Anybody have a problem with that? LEO: NO ONE has a problem with that. TOBY: Police are always 7 steps ahead of ‘em. They know what’s gonna happen and where it’s gonna happen and y’know how they know? By logging onto their website. We had the underground, we had rapid response-! CJ: And by God, you were home by supper on a school night. TOBY: These people are amateurs. CJ: You wanna make out with me right now. TOBY: Well, when don’t I? LEO: Andrew Jackson, in the main foyer of the White House, had a two-ton block of cheese- JOSH: And a Wheat Thin the size of Lake Tahoe. POTUS: Have the 10-year projections ever been close to accurate? AIDE: Depends on what you mean by “close”. POTUS: Within a trillion dollars? AIDE: No, sir. POTUS: What plaid flannel-wearing, cheese-eating, yahoo of a milkman governor signed THAT idiot bill into state law? (beat.) It was me, wasn’t it? TOBY: How many different ways do you know to kill a man? RHONDA: How many do you need? TOBY: I like you. NANCY McNALLY: I’m the only woman on a conference call. Dellaney can’t tell when it’s me talking. Do I have a strangely ambiguous voice? CSE GUY: You’re probably wondering what all of this has to do with social equality. CJ: No, I’m wondering where France really is. CSE GUY: When the top of the map is given to the Northern Hemisphere and the bottom to the Southern, people will tend to adopt top and bottom attitudes. CJ: But where else is there to put the North but on top? CSE GUY: On the bottom. CJ: Yeah, but you can’t do that. CSE GUY: Why not? CJ: ‘Cause it’s freaking me out. TOBY: I protested to you. JOSH: Why? TOBY: ‘Cause I’m not allowed to get arrested anymore. Yet here I go. DONNA: It was people pushing paper around 50 years ago, Sam, what does it matter? SAM: It was high treason and it mattered a great deal. This country is an idea, and one that’s lit the world for two centuries, and treason against that idea’s not just a crime against the living. This ground holds the graves of people who died for the idea, who gave what Lincoln called the last full measure of devotion…of fidelity…You understand the last full measure of devotion to-…treason against THEM is…There was a translator in the Hungarian trade mission named Shabba Dempsey. She was murdered in 1952. She was about to reveal the name of a Soviet Agent called Blackwater. This girl’s gonna find out who her father was. DONNA: Sam. You meant Grandfather. DONNA: Sam’s the man. SAM: It’s just there are certain things you’re sure of…Like Longitude and Latitude… DONNA: Sam, I’m not sure this is the best time to tell you this, but according ot CJ I wouldn’t be so sure about longitude and latitude. JOSH: You are old school, my friend. TOBY: Stop talking like that. Let’s go. JOSH: I gotta tell ya though. That was the second time I almost got killed this year and both times I was with you, so you’re gonna need a new wingman. TOBY: You were my old wingman? |
