to make it stick.
- That's what you're good at, right?
- I guess.
Tell him it's fine.
- Did you get your new phone?
- Mm-hm.
It's really exciting, isn't it?
What are you, a Bearcat?
Am l a what?
Cincinnati Bearcat?
Oh, no. l'm not from here.
I worked with you in Iowa, actually.
Oh.
That's right.
But you changed something.
- My hair?
- You changed your hair.
No.
Oh. l see.
Bet you I look like
a real dumb-ass right now, huh?
No, not at all.
You're the big man on campus.
I'm just a lowly intern.
Oh, it's not like that.
You get to stay at the Millennium.
- Ok? They put us in a motel
in the other side of the river.
- You're right.
- I am the big man on campus.
- Now you're starting to see.
Mm-hm.
- We do have a better bar, though.
- I've heard that.
You should come by one night.
Have a drink with the worker bees.
I might do that. I might do that.
What's a good night?
- Tonight's good.
- Tonight? Tuesday night?
- Yeah. lt's quiet.
- Quiet's good.
Well, you have my number.
I do?
It's programmed right there
in your phone.
Aha.
- Under "Mary."
- I know your name's Mary.
My name is Molly.
Yep.
That's what l'm hearing.
Since Super Tuesday,
all of a sudden,
I'm a very popular guy.
What are your polls
telling you?
That Pullman's negatives
are high. Mid 40s.
Senator, we have an open
seat in the White House.
The Republicans have dick.
They're disorganized.
They can't find a nominee
that's not a world-class f***-up.
They look like Democrats.
No Republican's gonna
show up to vote for their guy.
But if Pullman gets the Democratic nod,
they will show up to vote against him.
And you think they won't for your guy.
You think Morris gets the independents.
I sure do.
Senator, I'm a bit confused.
We need your delegates.
We need you.
Your fund-raising.
And l guess
it was my understanding
that your endorsement
a week before Ohio
would win this for us.
- Thank you.
- Estella.
Hand me that ice bucket.
- Is this Paul, or is this you?
- Paul knows and Paul agrees.
Ben, where's my op-ed piece
on national service?
- It's easier for me to work off of that.
- Got it right here.
- Give me a hard copy,
- Can we print it out?
- Molly, can you grab it a print for me?
- Yeah, One second.
- So if you wanna change or refresh--
- Just give me a second, will you?
Your national service isn't polling
the same as the rest of your policy.
I don't give a sh*t about the polling, Stephen.
I'm not gonna play this game with you.
This is your good-cop,
bad-cop act with Paul.
Good-cop, good-cop.
I'm not changing it.
Here we go.
All right, let's see.
It says we're gonna help people
