madam president,
this is captain andrew duggan of the "U.S.S. Seattle."
Our entire crew is now safely aboard the "U.S.S. Brighton."
General krieger,let's turn those ships around
and get our sailors home.
I wanted to tell you all how proud I am of you,
of us,of this team.
We accomplished something amazing in the last 48 hours.
I can't help but feel that,uh,
there's so much more we could accomplish.
You're going to run.
I think this team deserves another four years.
She's not gonna be easy to beat.
now that president allen seems to be taking the steps to run for reelection next year--
excuse me?
You disagree that she's going to run,mr. Speaker?
Oh,run,yes,absolutely.
But "reelection"?
Fair enough.
It's going to be great to watch the two of you run against each other.
And,yes,it will be her first time at the top of the ticket.
I don't want to disappoint you,but for the moment,
I am just nna focus on serving the great people of the sunshine state.
The rest is going to have to take care of itself.
Of course.
So tell me,you've seen her in action now.
How would you rate her first months in office?
Are there any surprises?
president allen never ceases to surprise me.
She's a,um...
a steadfast leader.
And mr. Calloway,too.
I've seen first hand how keen his decision making can be.
Strong.
In every difficult moment,
he's there to back her up.
Which is just another way of saying--
it's another way of saying that it's quite a deal the american people got.
Two for the price of one.
what a piece of work.
I n't know why you let him get to you.
No,I'm not too sensitive.
Tell me,when exactly did my presidency turn into a time-share?
- What are you-- - my california schedule--
it looks like you and dickie are selling me off in 5-minute blocks.
No one's selling your time,mac.
Really?
Let's see.
"Potus"--that would be me--
"will be joined in limo by businsman caleb kelban.
"On arrival to the groundbreaking,
"potus will be escorted by real estate developer mike moeller."
Ah,my personal favorite--
"potus will ride in elevator to suite
"with investment banker victoria voles."
I just hope for ms. Voles' sake it's a tall hotel.
Well,it's a fund-raiser,honey.
You give your stump speech,
we eat some baked alaska,
then we get back on air force one.
Fine.
But I'm gonna do more than just run for president for the next two years.
I want to be president.
Afternoon,everyone.
The speaker on board?
He's entertaining the press pool in the back.
Ah,that's perfect.
Even on our plane.
Kelly's back there monitoring.
Speech writing sent over a new draft for the groundbreaking.
I'll review in the air.
harry truman had the right idea--
intimacy,
the cross-country train,
standing on the observation platform,
going through the backyards,
going through the small towns of this great country,
noflying over them like we do today.
Not too late.
We cld still drop you at union station.
welcome aboard,madam president.
Thank you for this luxurious ride west.
Not at all.
I figure the groundbreaking of the bridges presidential library
is a good time for the speaker and i to find our own common ground.
Madam president,any chance you'd care to comment on this morning's "usa today" poll?
Their numbers show you and the speaker now tied among likely voters.
Mr. Speaker,you running for something?
Me?
Yes. The door.
Are those numbers solid?
And I can tell the first gentleman?
I ve you,syndi saltzman.
I wanna grow old with you,have babies.
I look forward to meeting you,too.
Meeting who?
Syndi saltzman.
She's running point on tonight's fund-raiser.
I must be getting old.
I remember her father.
He was the best P.R. Man in sacramento--ralphie saltzman.
Could spin anything. Reporters called him "the dreidel."
Well?
What's the number,dickie?
Guess.
Come on,I don't know.
Uh,2.
3?
We're doing 4.
.6--4.6.
Million?
Yes,doll,million.
All right,that's not bad for just gettin' our toes wet.
Not bad at all.
So they're all vetted?
No known felons.
Wait,wait,wait.I'm serious,dickie.
The president is not exactly thrilled about doing this in the first place.
Let's make sure we're doing it right.
Okay,there's officially nothing to do in this house.
You can help us.
Having your own movie theater and bowling alley must be such a drag.
It's not that,grandma,it's just--
it's friday night,and there's nobody to hang out with.
You kids could go out.
Our friends are kind of over the whole "being followed around by men with guns" thing.
Well,invite your friends here.
That is a great idea,grandma.
Uh,uh,wait a second.
A few school friends,right,bec?
Yeah,just to hang out for a little bit.
Could I invite some of my friends over?
No way.
That's not fair.Grandma,I want my--
it's kind of a grown-up party.
Not even,just a couple of kids.
We'll make our own fun.
We'll watch lots of tv and we'll order lots of pizza.
Pepperoni?
Yes.
So you sure this is cool?
Absolutely.
Maybe I should invite my friend stacy.
You know,she's been bugging me to introduce the two of you.
I can't imagine why,though.
Thanks.
But I can handle my own love life.
Whatever.
It's been 200 years since the white house burned down.
Like to keep the streak alive.
Okay,grandma.
But no one building can contain the greatness of man.
Or a woman.
You ever think about having your own library?
Me? No.
But I do envy you,though.
To have your work all housed in one place...
your contribution to american history on display.
Oh,I think a good,sturdy bookshelf will do the trick for me.
False modesty doesn't suit you.
Nor you.
I remember teddy's first race,
the governor's mansion.
It all happened so fast.
We came to see him,
the party elders.
It was late,we needed a candidate,he was perfect...
on paper.
but he didn't have the stomach for it.
He used to talk to me about running a campaign differently,
about not doing what he used to call "the nasty stuff."
The car rides,the hand shakes,the photo-ops.
I think maybe president bridges was on to something.
Well...I like all that.
This--this...
library--
it's just a parade they throw for you when you come back from the war.
Me?
I love the war.
later,okay?
I love this plane.
Greatest political tool ever assembled.
Dickie,what are you doing back here?
Just saying it makes you sound powerful.
Try it. I just flew in from the east coast.
Or I just flew in from the east coast on air force one.
You're right.
You do sound powerful.
Dickie,meet isabel rios.
She's here to do a profile--
why is it I have seven unreturned phone calls into you?
Eight,actually.
Well,you know how it is.
If you want to get in touch with someone like dickie,
you call me.
- And you'll say no. - Of course.
Kelly likes to keep me all to herself.
Dickie and I go way back.
Fedman campaign,ohio.
Your first win,right?
Ah,you never forget your first.
It was the final week of the campaign,
and we had this thing in the bag.
I mean,we're up nine four days out.
And for some reason,
I agree to let isabel do a curtain raiser on our gotv strategy for the final weekend.
Put her in a room with fedman,
who at this point is a little giddy at the thought of being governor.
Tape recorder's rolling,and he decides,
just as the interview's wrapping up,
to comment on isabel'S...
breasts.
Yes. It was at that moment that I new I had a bright future behind me.
But he won the race.
Put me on the map.
I was the guy who elected the guy who talked about breasts on record.
Well,why was he dumb enough to talk about your... you know?
I was sleeping with him.
I never knew that.
How come I never knew that?
What are you doing?
I don't like using the word "literally,"
but literally,my hand is in the cookie jar.
You caught me.
I mean,these may not be the best things about air force one,
but they're very close.
I meant the interview.
It was a cheap shot,and you know it.
What do you mean? I meant it.
I mean,it's the truth.
I think the president is very lucky to have you by her side.
Don't condescend to me,nate.
It's beneath you.
Is it?
Not coming?
Oh,I should've skipped the chicken pot pie.
The thought of riding in a car makes me want to puke.
I'm gonna stay and rest.
You sure?
Yeah,I'll be fine.
I can work the phones from here and catch up at the hotel.
ready.
Remember,big smiles,
lots of waving.
Here she comes.
Welcome to orange county,madam president.
- You must be syndi. - Yes.
welcome to california.
Madam president,
this is caleb kelban.
He's a great supporter.
Thought he might ride to the event with us.
We need to get going.
Okay,this way.
-=www.ydy.com/bbs=- Proudly Presents
Commander In Chief
Sync:fisherchen -=www.ydy.com/bbs=-
After the national anthem,
lucy bridges,the president's niece,will read a short poem.
Speaker templeton will make brief remarks and introduce you.
Two shovels and some prearranged loose dirt will be stage right.
After the speech,
you and the speaker will do the honors.
Kelly will have the press pool pre-positioned to make the shot.
And that's our picture of the day.
Yes.
The speaker and i flinging dirt?
well,I was going for teamwork,but...
the press is gonna eat it up.
Two minutes out,madam president.
To get right to the point,ma'am,
my jewelry stores have a contract with an african company that exports rough-cut diamonds.
Last year,the diamonds were put under U.S. Embargo.
Caleb was one of the first to step up when the trip was announced.
Oh,it was my pleasure.
Mr. Kelban,
are you going to ask me to waive the embargo for your specific company?
Well,you do have the power,ma'am.
4,000 miles of wiring and 185 phones.
You just made those numbers up.
Maybe.
still,it's a white house with wings.
Ultimate home court advantage.
A symbol of power and grace.
Cut the sales pitch,dickie.
I already blew off the event.
What are we doing here?
You tell me.
Since en are you friends with richard pachino?
I just put his name on the list.I didn't think he'd show.
Well,who's gonna turn down an invite to the white house?
Hi,you.
I can't believe i'm in the white house.
Dude,you don't have to whisper.
It's not a museum.
Look around,dude.
It sorta is.
Yeah? Can't drink these in a museum.
All right. How long are your parents out of town?
Ah,they're back tomorrow.
But no ideas,
my grandma's still here and we kinda have to--
what about her?
She's even worse.
got it.No naked bowling.
Definitely.
But there is a bowling alley,right?
and one large pepperoni pizza.
I don't want to order any for horace and becca.
They're mean.
Oh,that's not true,and you know it.
Make the pepperoni with extra cheese.
Extra cheese,please.
Good.
He wants to know where to deliver it.
Here.
Bring it to the white house.
He wants to know which white house.
Tell him the white house.
The white house.
That's where I live.
Does this qualify for the mile high club?
Technically,the plane was on the ground.
I'm still claiming it.
Oh,you're a button off.
Don't think this assures the president a good piece.
agent downing.
Yes,sir,at my post.
Angel is parked and shut down.
Hold on,I'll confirm.
Sir,white house has a guy on the line,
claims to be parked under the wing of air force one.
Says he has a bomb.
there's a fuel truck out there.
That's him.
White house,instruct the caller to wave his arm.
The groundbreaking was lovely.
Teddy would've been proud.
Yeah.
Upon arrival,
syndi has arranged for the hotel staff to greet the motorcade.
Why do I feel like i'm working for her today?
Well,we are.
But she's doing a good job,
and knows that fund-raisers contribute,
but hotel workers,they vote.
Mr. Gardner,pardon me.
What is it,pete?
There's a situation developing at the airport.
Copy.
Victory is secure.
What's going on,pete?
We need to abort public entry.
Rapid exit and straight to hold.
You mind telling me why?
Air force one is being held hostage.
what do we know,pete?
Approximately 37 minutes ago,
a man driving a global transit refueling truck
approached the secure perimeter of air force one.
The vehicle was on a preapproved access list,
the individual was properly credentialed.
He drove to the left wing refueling position,
then placed a cell phone call to the white house operator.
What does he want?
We d't know. He hasn't made a specific request yet.
and we believe this threat is real?
We have no other choice.
The truck he's driving carries 10,000 gallons of jet fuel.
Roughly the equivalent of 140,000 sticks of dynamite.
Not to mention the thousands of gallons already in the plane.
50,000,ma'am.
What do we know about the driver?
We'll have a one sheet on him in the next 20 minutes.
Ma'am,we don't know if this is just the beginning of a coordinated effort.
It would be our recommendation that you cutour trip short.
- where would we-- - edwards air force base.
We have a c37a on standby.
We can be wheels up for washington in 50 minutes.
I need at least one seat on that plane for a wire reporter.
We could reschedule the fund-raiser.
Are you kidding?
This is front-row seating to watch the president during a crisis.
I mean,this is what they're paying for.
20 minutes for the one sheet?
Yes,ma'am.
All right. We'll wait for more information.
But not because I'm afraid to bruise the egos of some donors.
I'm not gonna let some nutcase chase me out of town.
Well,let's do this favor for congressman penmore...
his district.
So,are we clear?
Yes,ma'am.
You're sure?
That's six boxes of peanut butter puffs
and two boxes of vanilla delights.
They're for my kids.
Thank you.
Keep up the good work.
Thank you,madam president.
You're gonna run for reelection,aren't you?
You think I should?
We like it more with a girl president.
I'll see what I can do.
I-I'm telling you,kelly,you know more than I do.
There aren't a whole lot of details.
Are you picking anything up from the agent?
I don't think the agents like me very much.
That's hard to believe.
You're actually enjoying the fact that I may get blown up.
Our "cares about pollster"numbers may take a short-term hit,but--
unh-unh. No.
Not funny.
The president's not gonna cancel the fund-raiser.
No,she's keeping to her schedule for now.
Good.
- Does the press know? - Not yet.
But I'd say all hell will break loose any minute.
I've got secret service pulling together some fact sheets,security protocols,
that sort of thing.
Good.
Good. That's my girl.
Listen,make sure a photographer is capturing it all--
black and whites of the president handling her crisis.
Great campaign spot.
You are sick.
I'm serious.
Keep me posted.
want to go again?
so my mom's out there yelling,"stacy,stacy."
It was so embarrassing.
What did you do?
What do you think?
I pretended not to see her and just ran out of the mall.
Wow. Oh,here comes my brother. Don't look.
Horace,lincoln's ghost,like--
like,he like lives here,right?
Yeah,yeah,go check it out.
Last room on the right.
Keep it down.
Hey,uh,we haven't met.
Stacy.
Oh,you're stacy?
I'm,uh,--
yeah,I know.
Got a beer for me?
Yeah.
you're on,pete.
Our driver is retired major frank terzano.
Born 1965,just outse of ogden,utah.
Father was military,stationed at the base there.
Moved around as a kid,22 cities,14 schools.
Joined the army right out of college,
served in desert storm where he earned a bronze star.
Specialized in demolitions.
Which means there's a good chance this is actually for real.
Yes,ma'am.We have to assume so.
He could have plastic explosives stolen from military sources
or even rudimentary dynamite.
It doesn't take much to set off the jet fuel in his truck.
That's the real bomb.
Terzano is just a detonator.
What's the rest of the situation on the ground?
Perimeter is secured by fbi and local S.W.A.T. Teams as well as secret service,
counterassault and emergency response teams.
How was this man allowed near air force one?
Works for a private contractor that provides fueling services to the U.S. Military.
Fully vetted,but it was our fault.
We should've caught it.
All right,give me a moment.
What do you think?
I think we stick to the schedule.
You said yourself,ma'am,
can't be chased away by a lone nutcase.
We're fund-raising,jim,not negotiating middle east peace.
It's a fluke in the schedule.
Today happens to be fund-raising,tomorrow it'll be something else.
Jim's right,your job is to keep to your schedule,
not be distracted by things that are outside your control.
Let the secret service do their job.
Collecting money at a time of crisis.
The press is gonna have a field day.
Okay,have syndi quietly gather a small group,
some of the organizers.
The rest of them will just have to wait.
Yes,ma'am.
Ma'am,we now know what frank terzano wants.
...just learned that major frank terzano
is threatening to blow up air force one
unless he gets to speak directly to the president of the united states.
where are you guys going?
I can't believe I'm walkin' around the west wing drinking a beer.
Dude,you brought your beer?
What,no good?
Where does...
that hall lead?
One way to find out.
Are we supposed to be in here?
Trust me.I know the owner.
Where are we anyway?
You'll see.
Hey,rebecca.
Yeah?
What would happen if I push that button?
Ooh,that button?
I don't know ifif I should tell you.
Come on.
We won't say anything.
You promise?
If you push that button,
a signal is beamed to a secret satellite
that sends a code to a special c.I.A. Computer that activates the launch sequence.
Like--like missiles and stuff?
Are you serious?
It just turns on the light.
okay,everybody.
Press conference will begin in two minut,people.
Come on.
Is it okay to be in here?
It's cool.
Mom's in california.
It's okay.
So... this is the only one,right?
Oval office?
Actually...
there's two of 'em.
One's a double for security.
I knew it.
give me the pentagon.
white house operator.
becca,becca!
Is there any truth to the rumor
that you made out with rusty grife in the back of mr. Melvoy's class?
The white house does not comment on rumors started by patti layton.
Any other questions?
Becca! Becca!
You had your question!
I bet you can have any girl you want.
No,it's not like that.
Just don't tell anyone,okay?
It's like this.
I'm walking off the plane.
I'm gonna wave nicely at the bomber over there,
and then I'm gonna go to the airport bar
and have myself a big gin and tonic.
I'm going,too.
Look at it this way--
if you make us stay and this nut sets this thing off,
my family will sue your ass off.
And if he doesn't,I will spend the rest of my life
telling everyone how you held me hostage on air force one.
We've got a passenger coming off.
Two passengers.
Make that two,male and female.
And can someone alert the nutcase in the fuel truc not to take it personally?
Notify our snipers,too.
so let me understand this.
We have half of the secret service at the airport,fbi,S.W.A.T. Teams,
we have a spy satellite that can read a license plate from space,
and my major source of information is cable news?
What if the chinese invade?
Am I gonna hear it first on talk radio?
I believe he called the media directly.
Or a producer could've gotten ahold of him on his cell phone.
A technical coup beyond our capabilities apparently.
Weave hostage negotiators our there,right?
- Are we talking to him? - Yes,ma'am.
we now appear to have frank terzano on the phone.
Mr. Terzano,can you ar me?
It's major terzano.
Major,what is it that you want?
Simple,I want to speak directly to the president.
Are you threatening to blow up air force one and everyone on board?
I don't want to kill anyone.
But I've tried and I've tried,
and now they're gonna listen.
I've served my country for years,
and this is how they treat us?
They're just gonna let my wife die.
She's down to 97 pounds,and I'm not...
mr. Terzano?
Apparently,we've lost contact with mr. Terzano.
Pete,is everyone off the plane?
The process has begun,ma'am.
I don't believe this.
she stayed behind,too?
It was your idea to hire this guy,
just remember that.
Sharpshooters are in place with a clear line of fire.
It's an easy shot.
If he is wired,the whole thing blows.
But he's not threatening me,it's just the plane.
No,it's not an ordinary plane.
I mean,forget the cost.
That's got our flag painted on it's tail.
This guy has written letters to everybody in the government going back three years,
when the V.A. Canceled his health insurance while his wife was in the hospital.
"Dear congressman...dear senator...
"dear secretary of veterans affairs."
At a nightmare.
I'm sure he got detailed,prompt responses.
Look,I want to know if this terzano character has a legitimate beef,
and I want to know ten minutes ago.
Does it matter?
What if he is 100% right
and he is getting railroaded by nameless bureaucrats in the V.A.,So what?
Does that mean he should take air force one hostage?
Or that the president of the united states should talk to him?
I'm glad to see you two are getting along better.
Apparently,I have a schedule to keep.
I want that report.
Syndi knows the date,
and I've written your office.
A lot of important people will be there.
I'm sure it'll be a memorable bar mitzvah.
Your wife must be very excited.
Oh,she is.
And my son's mother will be there,too,of course.
Every effort will be made.
Madam president,you remember cyrus thompson,
who was co-finance chair for the bridges-allen campaign in california?
Of course.How are you,cy?
Madam president,you look stunning.
Now I know you have a lot on your plate,
but these proposed sugar subsidy cuts are going to be a disaster.
Now we in agribusiness are very concerned about the timing of this.
Hell of a thing,rod.
She's got it under control.
Well,there's a reason this job ages people.
What's the latest?
Well,we're just getting up to speed on the guy.
Two kids,wife's sick,
the V.A. Canceled his insurance.
so naturally he holds air force one hostage.
He wrote your office.
Everybody writes my office.
At did we do?
Referred him back to the V.A.
well,at least heot a response.
Come on,rod. We get a thousand of these a month,or more.
I got a question for you.
His wife has some kind of cancer,nathan.
Now we've reached out to the doctor for more information.
No.
My question is...
why is the guy in the fuel truck still ale?
They don't have a clean shot?
Or is she afraid to give the order?
So stacy really thinks there's two oval offices?
I was just kidding her,and she believed me.
Now I don't know what to tell her.
Well,you think you'll see her again?
Mrs. Allen.
Horace. Rebecca.
Mrs. Allen.
Where's amy?
in bed.
Did all of your friends leave?
Yeah,they're gone.Why?
is there a problem?
You are aware that one of the five existing gettysburg addresses
has been on display in the lincoln bedroom since before you were born.
Yes,nora.
May we help you?
And now it is missing.
I beg your pardon?
The gettysburg address is missing.
Nora,that's impossible.
All of your friends here tonight,
I never should've let it happen.
Get it back.
didn't we start federal funding of elections
after watergate just to prevent the kind of tawdry,
disgusting glad-handing i've done all day?
Madam president,may I introduce dr. Bernard hendricks?
He's the terzano family physician.
Oh,mrs. President.
President allen,
I-I've had betty terzano as a,uh,patient for over ten years.
About eight years ago,we,uh,
discovered a stage i colon cancer very early.
So early discovery and treatment works,right?
Yeah.
I mean,isn't that the point of me going through that humiliating ritual every year?
We were progressing in treatment,and she was responding,and then...
frank's veterans health care was canceled.
Why?
Best I could tell,
frank terzano was receiving v.A. Benefits
because he was classified as more than 50% disabled
when he was discharged after desert storm.
Combat wound?
No. He was hit by a vehicle in the staging area.
A tank backed into him.
A tank?
Damaged his left leg.
But he worked like hell in therapy,and he did all the right things,
which was the problem.
He improved,so he was reclassified as only 30% disabled.
Which dropped him out of priority one coverage,
and lost his insurance.
Doesn't his current job come with health insurance?
For him,
but not his wife because of her preexisting condition.
- It gets worse. - How?
Well,we found--when he did have insurance--
that she only responds well to zorbitux.
It's a boutique,
targeted drug that only works sometimes when nothing else does.
You said it gets worse.
Zorbitux costs $17,000 a month.
Pete,I want to talk to frank terzano.
Yes,ma'am.
You'll be secure on this end,
but his cell is potentially compromised.
that's the least of our problems.
Madam president,if I may,
this has the makings of a monumental blunder.
Outvoted,jim.
The president's made up her mind.
To negotiate with a terrorist.
hello?
Mr. Terzano,this is the president of the united states.
I don't believe it.
Prove it.
No,mr. Terzano.I don't need to prove it.
You need to listen.
I've met with dr. Hendricks.
You did?
Did he tell you about my wife,how sick she is?
He's a very kind man. He tried to help us,but he couldn'T.
Yes,I agree.He is a kind man.
And he cares about you and your wife a great deal.
I've also looked into your situation.
And here's what I'm prepared to offer you...
absolutely nothing.
Nothing?
What do you mean?
That's correct,mr. Terzano,absolutely nothing.
I find what you've done outrageous
and a complete abandonment of the principles
you upheld as a member of the united states military.
No,I'm hanging up.
Mr. Terzano,if you hang up,
one way or the other,
you will be dead very shortly and your wife will be alone.
Is this how you want your children to remember you?
Not as a man who served his country,but a terrorist?
I don't know what else to do.
I'm supposed to take care of her.
Can you understand that?
We tried everything...
and I let her down.
So this is my only option.
Mr. Terzano,you have not served your country very well today.
But there is reason to believe that you have not been well served by your country either.
If your country is at fault,
I promise to take the necessary steps--
I've heard all this before.
Not from me.
I can't keep letting her suffer.
I need guarantees that she'll get care--
this is not a negotiation,mr. Terzano.
This is a choice for you to make.
Either your willing to surrender peacefully,
or this will end violently.
If you care about your family as I believe you do,
you'll save your life.
It's your best hope,sir.
And frankly,it's your only hope.
Good night.
Everyone off the plane?
Yes,ma'am.
Give him five minutes,and then,uh...
take your first clear shot.
dude,I'm not kidding.
Thgettysburg address was here when the party started,
and now it's missing.
What? I will kill you.
what? What happened?
alex--he says he put it on the internet.
the internet?on The internet?
He's kidding.You know,it's a joke.
Yeah,well,it's not funny.
Hey,stacy,look,I'm--I'm sorry to wake you.
You're not going to believe this,
but,um,the gettysburg address was stolen...
do you have any idea what will happen to me?
I know,and we really need to get it back.
I promise.
you are now watching live footage of a story
we've been covering most of the afternoon.
Will retired major frank terzano surrender peacefully?
Or will president allen be forced to give the command to shoot to kill?
this is all gonna happen live?
Can't these cameras be turned off?
Madam president,we're at four minutes.
Ththe command center wants to know if you will give the go order at five?
We now see the major sitting in the cab of the fuel truck...
yes.
And now we can see inside the cab.
It appears the sniper is getting into position.
We don't know if he's been given the command to shoot.
Hold on,hold on,the cab door is opening.
Here we go.
He's looking out the door.He's looking around.
Can you see his hands?
He's hesitating.
the snipers have a clear shot,ma'am.
he's getting out of the cab
Don't shoot.
We're not sure if he's actually wired.
No,he's climbing down.
He's looking around,
seems disoriented for some reason.
His hands are gog up.
Yes,he has surrendered.
Major frank terzano has surrendered without incident.
well done,madam president.
congratulations,ma'am.
You saved us from flying back commercial.
He's been cuffed and subdued.
I speak for ten minutes,
and then we're at the airport.
Absolutely,madam president.
They couldn't be happier.They're part of history.
You're good at what you do.
I know.But I hate what you do.
I undersnd totally,
but in this next election,
the republicans and the democrats will spend over $400 million each.
We're coming away with a little over 4.
You're good at what you do,too,madam president.
But to keep you in office,this is what it takes.
I want a full report on what happened with the terzanos...
madam president,congratulations.
What,why,who's responsible.
And I want a medical report update on her condition.
News is reporting offers of private donations willing to cover her costs.
How much will this increase our take?
It's an historic night.
ladies and gentlemen,
the president of the united states.
she's gonna win by 10 points.
Write it down.
I still ven't reached sara taylor yet.
Sara taylor?
No way.
She was terrified just being here.
We have to tell the secret service,
then the police.
Then it's in the papers,
and my life is over.
Amy,darling.
- Grandma? - What?
What are you doing?
Well,we lost something very important,
and we have been looking for it all night.
Are you in trouble?
We're dead.
I hid it.
What?
Good one,amy.
I was up all night,you little...
no,I'm gonna make breakfast now.
And we're going to sit at the table,
and we're all going to talk about w wonderful we are.
pancakes?
Eggs.
French toast.
The president and first gentleman will be here shortly.
Well,I see reason in the world
why we can't keep this our little secret,right?
Sounds like a plan.
I like the idea of two ovals.
I know,but she believed me.
Hey.

Hey,mom.
Hey,dad.
Hi.
Everything all right,mom?
Oh,we had a wonderful time.

I've gotta go check the seating charts for the dinner.
Oh,mrs. Allen...
thank you.
Mom,got any more pancakes?
Of course.
- Good morning. - Vince.
Ma'am,the secretary general asked if you can move up your call 30 minutes.
Then you have a pen and paper at 9:00 with "U.S. News,"
"time" and "newsweek."
And kelly has drafted some talking points about last night's situation.
Uh,what--what situation?
Nothing. Would you pass that syrup?
Yeah.
So what did you guys do last night?
Uh,you know,nothing.

I was wondering if stacy and I could go into georgetown later.

Oh,dad,the wizards,they're in town tonight.
