But...
...now, l don't care.
A thing like this contaminates
your soul, Mr. Picard.

lt ruined my life, it ruined my life.
And l think it's my duty to God and to my
country to set the record straight...
...about Lieutenant Benjamin Tyson...
...and the atrocities at Misericorde.
ln lraq today, the U.S. Army continued their
patrol of former Ba'ath party headquarters.
The site of sporadic looting and violence.
-Did you talk to David?
-Oh, l talked.
l'm not sure he listened.
He's still saying he didn't cheat.
Teachers have it in for him....
Yeah, right.
Well, he's gotta come to it on his own.
Stop being the principal.
Be his mom.
Well, since you're in such
a forgiving mood...
...l meant to tell you that l had to wire
my sister more money last week.
She sounded so desperate, Ben.
Maybe she should've gone
back to her husband...
...instead of blowing
all that money on lawyers.
Not cool.
-Who blew all their money on lawyers?
-Aunt Francie, honey.
She's going through a hard time.
-She shouldn't have married the bum.
-Oh, very compassionate.
People experience problems
in their lives, David.

-Good to know.
People just have to take responsibility
for their actions. Don't they?

-Yeah, right.
Hold on. Jim Wattenberg.
-Call back.
-Mr. Wattenberg?
He's rushing into a meeting.
Mr. Tyson's office.
No, l'm sorry. He's not in....

They're waiting on our recommendations.
Yeah, l want to talk to you about that.
Don't tell me you're having
second thoughts, my friend.

-Hold the calls, okay?
-And get me Phil Sloan.
-You all right?
You know, l'm right
in the middle of something.
