Quote
Sally Aiken:
Ken Clawson told me he wrote the Canuck letter.
Carl Bernstein:
The letter that said Muskie was slurring the Canadians.
Bob Woodward:
Clawson.
Carl Bernstein:
The deputy director of White House communications wrote the Canuck letter. When'd he tell you this?
Sally Aiken:
When we were having drinks.
Carl Bernstein:
Where were you?
Sally Aiken:
My apartment.
Carl Bernstein:
When did you say he told you?
Sally Aiken:
Two weeks ago.
Carl Bernstein:
What else did he say? He didn't say anything? Come on, you're hedging.
Bob Woodward:
Do you think he said it to impress you, to try to get you to go to bed with him?
Carl Bernstein:
Jesus!
Bob Woodward:
No, I want to hear her say it. Do you think he said that to impress you, to try to get you to go to bed with him?
Carl Bernstein:
Why did it take you two weeks to tell us this, Sally?
Sally Aiken:
I guess I don't have the taste for the jugular you guys have.

Haldeman was the fifth name
to control that fund...
00:00:03.009 --> 00:00:06.984
- and Sloan would've told the Grand Jury.

00:00:07.007 --> 00:00:08.048
- Why didn't he?
- Because nobody asked.
00:00:08.571 --> 00:00:10.999
Nobody asked him.
00:00:10.114 --> 00:00:11.941
The cover-up had little to do
with the break-in.
00:00:12.999 --> 00:00:14.571
It was to protect covert operations
and the covert activities...
00:00:14.066 --> 00:00:17.001
involving the entire
U.S. Intelligence community.
00:00:17.121 --> 00:00:19.743
Did Deep Throat say
that people's lives are in danger?
00:00:19.832 --> 00:00:20.912
Yes.
00:00:21.000 --> 00:00:24.701
- What else did he say?
- He said everyone is involved.
00:00:32.072 --> 00:00:35.039
You know the results
of the latest Gallup Poll?
00:00:35.473 --> 00:00:38.308
Half the country never even
heard of the word "Watergate."
00:00:38.393 --> 00:00:40.184
Nobody gives a shit.
00:00:42.814 --> 00:00:45.269
You guys are probably pretty tired, right?
00:00:45.692 --> 00:00:48.003
You should be. Go on home.
00:00:48.611 --> 00:00:51.446
Get a nice hot bath, rest up 15 minutes...
00:00:51.864 --> 00:00:54.272
then get your asses back in gear.
00:00:54.742 --> 00:00:58.574
We're under a lot of pressure,
you know, and you put us there.
00:00:59.956 --> 00:01:04.499
Nothing's riding on this except the
First Amendment of the Constitution...
00:01:04.586 --> 00:01:08.999
freedom of the press,
and maybe the future of the country.
00:01:10.258 --> 00:01:12.547
Not that any of that matters...
00:01:12.001 --> 00:01:16.006
but if you guys fuck up again,
I'm going to get mad.
00:01:18.004 --> 00:01:19.428
Goodnight.
00:01:47.337 --> 00:01:49.999
And now, fellow Americans...
00:01:49.756 --> 00:01:53.754
the Honorable Chief Justice
will administer the oath of office...
00:01:54.999 --> 00:01:57.511
to the President
of the United States of America.
00:01:57.999 --> 00:01:59.001
Mr. Chief Justice.
