they didn't know where you were.
Because I didn't tell them.
Well, what about Mrs. Tschudy?
She didn't know either.
But you taught her
to always say that, didn't you?
MARK:
Have you been making the callsabout Joan?
AUDREY:
I've called all her friends.They haven't heard from her in nearly a year.
(SIGHS)
Are you looking for her?
Is the most powerful law enforcement agency
I can't do that.
Oh.
It's against the rules?
We don't know what they will find.
Do we?
(TELEPHONE RINGING)
Where the hell did they get that?
Mr. Bates.
This Washington Post story says
we know who the Watergate ringleader is.
Then, this morning,
our Time magazine pal, Sandy Smith,
called the acting director
to say that he is prepping a story
that the FBI is plotting a whitewash.
He said the director has put
a 48-hour cap on the investigation.
- What's your point?
- Is that true?
Someone in this office
is talking to the press.
The point, Mr. Lano,
is that leaks kill investigations.
- Whoa, whoa. Okay.
- Take it down, Angie.
You want to conduct
a leak investigation, be my guest.
But you got 200 field agents from
here to LA all chasing down leads,
so you're gonna have to ask them all, too.
Tone, in front of Mr. Felt.
I can guarantee it wasn't me
or any of the guys in this room.
Donald H. Segretti.
You pulled that name
from Howard Hunt's phone records.
He called Hunt a few dozen times, yeah.
This says Segretti used to be a lawyer
in the Treasury Department,
paid out of the account
that funded the Watergate.
the Committee to Re-elect the President.
- Who is the head of the committee?
- John Mitchell.
Former Attorney General, John Mitchell.
The best we can make out is
Segretti's some kind of prankster.
You know, like he's spying on the Dems,
sending their wives dirty pictures.
- It's all bottom-feeder, frat boy stuff.
- Indictable under election laws.
Forget the plot of the story, Mr. Kunkel.
What's the theme? What's it saying?
What does it mean?
Like Angie, like Mr. Lano said,
we are still vetting the leads.
All the ugly politics,
all the dirty money, all the sleaze.
(SHOUTING) It means the goddamn punks
are running the country!
Keep going.
LANO:
You might want to talk tothe White House about those leaks.
- Why?
- 'Cause whenever I'm lucky enough
to get someone over there
to actually talk to me,
they know what I'm gonna ask before I ask it.
It's like they already know
what I want to know.
Mr. Felt, I have the White House
on the phone. Mr. John Dean.
MARK:
Put him through.Mr. Dean.
