00:08:45,403 --> 00:08:47,938
Who's Oliver talking to?

169
00:08:47,939 --> 00:08:49,940
[Norman]: His lawyer.

170
00:08:49,941 --> 00:08:51,775
He inherited so much money,
she comes to see him now.

171
00:08:51,776 --> 00:08:53,861
With all of this money,

172
00:08:53,862 --> 00:08:56,747
I suppose you will want to start
talking about early retirement.

173
00:08:56,748 --> 00:08:58,615
And quit the post office?

174
00:08:58,616 --> 00:08:59,616
Well, why not?

175
00:08:59,617 --> 00:09:02,119
You're young, you're single,
and you're rich.

176
00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:03,504
Ms. bullock,

177
00:09:03,505 --> 00:09:05,756
the only thing
Harvey Schmidtz gave me,

178
00:09:05,757 --> 00:09:06,957
besides this inheritance,

179
00:09:06,958 --> 00:09:08,208
was a piece of advice.

180
00:09:08,209 --> 00:09:13,180
"You never have enough money
if all you have is money."

181
00:09:13,181 --> 00:09:15,965
What does that mean, anyway?

182
00:09:20,972 --> 00:09:22,689
It means...

183
00:09:22,690 --> 00:09:24,640
It's time to get back to work.

184
00:09:28,813 --> 00:09:31,481
Have you seen your itinerary,
Ms. Mclnerney?

185
00:09:32,550 --> 00:09:34,751
I'm sorry. What?

186
00:09:34,752 --> 00:09:35,953
[Oliver]: Well, I made
copies for all of us

187
00:09:35,954 --> 00:09:36,987
and highlighted

188
00:09:36,988 --> 00:09:38,822
the events pertinent
to each of us

189
00:09:38,823 --> 00:09:40,791
in corresponding colors.

190
00:09:40,792 --> 00:09:41,825
You're yellow.

191
00:09:41,826 --> 00:09:43,994
[Laughs] Yellow! Huh.

192
00:09:43,995 --> 00:09:45,996
We arrive at 3:56.

193
00:09:45,997 --> 00:09:47,798
Check in the hotel at 5:10,

194
00:09:47,799 --> 00:09:50,000
arrive at the capitol grill
at 6:45 for a quiet dinner

195
00:09:50,001 --> 00:09:51,552
before curfew at 10:30.

196
00:09:51,553 --> 00:09:54,471
And tomorrow morning, Rita...
Right here in pink...

197
00:09:54,472 --> 00:09:56,757
Registers for the pageant
at 9:00,

198
00:09:56,758 --> 00:09:59,643
and you and I and Norman
leave at 9:30

199
00:09:59,644 --> 00:10:01,478
to take a tour
of the library of congress,

200
00:10:01,479 --> 00:10:04,848
Ford's theater, and, uh,
the national postal museum.

201
00:10:04,849 --> 00:10:07,184
Postal museum?

202
00:10:07,185 --> 00:10:09,603
Uh, think you're ready
to go back there?

203
00:10:09,604 --> 00:10:10,821
It's time.

204
00:10:10,822 --> 00:10:13,023
I'd like to get it over with.

205
00:10:13,024 --> 00:10:14,691
Of course.

206
00:10:14,692 --> 00:10:17,995
And then I can show you
around my old stomping grounds.

207
00:10:17,996 --> 00:10:20,531
Oh. I-is there a museum
you'd like to add?

208
00:10:20,532 --> 00:10:24,868
Or... or... would you like
to visit old postal friends?

209
00:10:24,869 --> 00:10:26,787
Well, Rebecca Starkwell

210
00:10:26,788 --> 00:10:28,622
was my only friend
at the D.C. office,

211
00:10:28,623 --> 00:10:30,541
and she's on her honeymoon.

212
00:10:30,542 --> 00:10:32,009
Oh. Is there an old boyfriend

213
00:10:32,010 --> 00:10:34,962
to visit at the post office?

214
00:10:34,963 --> 00:10:38,798
I'm not in the habit
of calling up old boyfriends.

215
00:10:39,801 --> 00:10:41,051
And even if I were,

216
00:10:41,052 --> 00:10:43,720
his work is...

217
00:10:43,721 --> 00:10:45,722
Well, he's hardly ever in town.

218
00:10:45,723 --> 00:10:46,773
Great!

219
00:10:46,774 --> 00:10:49,526
It's settled then.

220
00:10:49,527 --> 00:10:52,196
Taxi should be arriving
any minute.

221
00:10:52,197 --> 00:10:54,231
Almost forgot!

222
00:10:54,232 --> 00:10:55,999
What?

223
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:58,068
Don't ask. Can't tell.
It's a surprise.

224
00:10:58,069 --> 00:10:59,069
Ahh!

225
00:10:59,070 --> 00:11:00,287
Field kit!

226
00:11:00,288 --> 00:11:02,039
Norman! We're
going on holiday.

227
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:03,823
All you need is your suitcase.

228
00:11:05,243 --> 00:11:06,993
Uh-oh.

229
00:11:10,248 --> 00:11:12,716
I know it's a horrible thought,

230
00:11:12,717 --> 00:11:16,053
veering off your blue itinerary
into my yellow itinerary,

231
00:11:16,054 --> 00:11:17,254
but I was wondering

232
00:11:17,255 --> 00:11:21,925
if we could make a tiny detour
on our way to the hotel?

233
00:11:21,926 --> 00:11:24,728
A detour?

234
00:11:24,729 --> 00:11:26,230
I wanted to...

235
00:11:26,231 --> 00:11:28,181
Drive by the house
where I grew up,

236
00:11:28,182 --> 00:11:30,017
for old time's sake.

237
00:11:30,018 --> 00:11:31,652
Please?

238
00:11:31,653 --> 00:11:34,104
[Exhaling]

239
00:11:34,105 --> 00:11:35,138
[Norman]: Okay!

240
00:11:35,139 --> 00:11:37,691
All set.
Let's do D.C.

241
00:11:37,692 --> 00:11:40,277
Has anyone seen my crown?

242
00:11:40,278 --> 00:11:42,829
Oh! Ah.

243
00:11:42,830 --> 00:11:45,781
[♪♪]

244
00:12:06,304 --> 00:12:09,973
[Rita]:
Where's your house?

245
00:12:09,974 --> 00:12:12,142
It's gone.

246
00:12:12,143 --> 00:12:14,945
Are you sure this
is the right street?

247
00:12:14,946 --> 00:12:17,898
Of course I'm sure.

248
00:12:17,899 --> 00:12:20,616
That's the tree
I used to climb.

249
00:12:21,786 --> 00:12:24,754
The garden
where we planted the...

250
00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:30,160
Those bricks were

251
00:12:30,161 --> 00:12:33,363
the fireplace where my mother
and I always...

252
00:12:33,364 --> 00:12:34,997
[Deep breath]

253
00:12:37,168 --> 00:12:39,169
18 years...

254
00:12:39,170 --> 00:12:42,138
And now it's like
we were never here.

255
00:12:45,059 --> 00:12:47,844
Did you plant those?

256
00:12:47,845 --> 00:12:50,063
[Shane]: For mother's day.

257
00:12:50,064 --> 00:12:52,149
[Quiet chuckle]

258
00:12:52,150 --> 00:12:55,068
Every fall, after all
the other blooms would die,

259
00:12:55,069 --> 00:12:58,405
my mom... my mom
would take the last one,

260
00:12:58,406 --> 00:13:00,907
and put in a vase and say,

261
00:13:00,908 --> 00:13:04,027
"look.
It's the last rose of summer.

262
00:13:04,028 --> 00:13:05,912
Still holding on."

263
00:13:05,913 --> 00:13:07,748
[Chuckles softly]

264
00:13:07,749 --> 00:13:11,201
Then, every fall...

265
00:13:11,202 --> 00:13:14,037
Even after
I went away to college,

266
00:13:14,038 --> 00:13:17,841
and every September after that,
until she moved away,

267
00:13:17,842 --> 00:13:20,210
I would get
an envelope in the mail

268
00:13:20,211 --> 00:13:23,380
with the last rose of summer

269
00:13:23,381 --> 00:13:27,883
wrapped in wet paper towels,
in a plastic bag.

270
00:13:30,271 --> 00:13:32,688
She was sending you a message.

271
00:13:34,359 --> 00:13:35,726
"Pay attention

272
00:13:35,727 --> 00:13:39,895
"to the simple, little things
right in front of you...

273
00:13:41,232 --> 00:13:44,066
Or they could be gone
before you know it."

274
00:13:48,156 --> 00:13:49,990
Forgive me, Mr. O'Toole,

275
00:13:49,991 --> 00:13:53,160
but other than the sad truth
that we can't go home again,

276
00:13:53,161 --> 00:13:55,996
we've still heard nothing
to shed any light

277
00:13:55,997 --> 00:13:58,048
on the letter that I hold here,

278
00:13:58,049 --> 00:14:00,217
addressed to
the secretary of defense

279
00:14:00,218 --> 00:14:03,053
of the United States of America.

280
00:14:03,054 --> 00:14:04,838
With respect, madame chairman,

281
00:14:04,839 --> 00:14:07,257
uh, it was stopping

282
00:14:07,258 --> 00:14:09,393
at the site of
Ms. Mclnerney's former home

283
00:14:09,394 --> 00:14:12,179
that put us in the lobby
of the Franklin Adams hotel

284
00:14:12,180 --> 00:14:14,064
at the exact moment
we crossed paths

285
00:14:14,065 --> 00:14:15,849
with Phoebe Amidon
and her grandfather.

286
00:14:15,850 --> 00:14:18,018
If that letter
is what we think it is,

287
00:14:18,019 --> 00:14:21,988
then it's compelling us
to pay attention to the details,

288
00:14:21,989 --> 00:14:24,357
or the chance to bring
lieutenant Amidon home again

289
00:14:24,358 --> 00:14:26,276
will also be gone
before we know it.

290
00:14:26,277 --> 00:14:29,946
So your presence
here today, Mr. O'Toole,

291
00:14:29,947 --> 00:14:32,282
is the result of
a prior relationship

292
00:14:32,283 --> 00:14:34,918
with Phoebe Amidon
and her grandfather?

293
00:14:34,919 --> 00:14:36,420
Well, that,

294
00:14:36,421 --> 00:14:39,790
and the prior relationship
of Ms. Mclnerney with, uh...

295
00:14:39,791 --> 00:14:43,459
Actually, I'd like to turn
this part over to her now.

296
00:14:44,512 --> 00:14:46,296
My name is Shane Mclnerney.

297
00:14:46,297 --> 00:14:47,798
I provide I.T. Services

298
00:14:47,799 --> 00:14:50,016
for the dead letter office
in Denver.

299
00:14:50,017 --> 00:14:52,519
I used to work right here
in Washington

300
00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:54,304
in direct line operations.

301
00:14:54,305 --> 00:14:57,140
When we arrived at the hotel
on Thursday,

302
00:14:57,141 --> 00:14:58,475
we were checking in and...

303
00:14:58,476 --> 00:14:59,860
<i>Rita was registering</i>

304
00:14:59,861 --> 00:15:01,478
<i>for the miss special delivery
pageant.</i>

305
00:15:01,479 --> 00:15:03,863
Oh, wait.

306
00:15:06,033 --> 00:15:08,400
[♪♪]

307
00:15:09,487 --> 00:15:10,787
Ms. Mclnerney.

308
00:15:10,788 --> 00:15:12,873
Mm?

309
00:15:12,874 --> 00:15:14,157
Uh, I was thinking,

310
00:15:14,158 --> 00:15:15,408
perhaps this week

311
00:15:15,409 --> 00:15:17,494
might present
an opportunity for...

312
00:15:17,495 --> 00:15:20,880
For... for an evening out.

313
00:15:22,333 --> 00:15:24,835
We're in Washington, D.C.,
Oliver.

314
00:15:24,836 --> 00:15:27,003
We're already spending
the whole week out.

315
00:15:27,004 --> 00:15:29,089
Yes, but I was thinking,

316
00:15:29,090 --> 00:15:32,142
um, you and I might
have dinner together,

317
00:15:32,143 --> 00:15:33,393
just us, to...

318
00:15:33,394 --> 00:15:36,062
To talk and...

319
00:15:36,063 --> 00:15:38,265
Perhaps I can offer
some perspective

320
00:15:38,266 --> 00:15:41,317
on the recent loss
of your childhood home.

321
00:15:42,854 --> 00:15:45,105
You're asking me...

322
00:15:45,106 --> 00:15:47,023
Out...

323
00:15:47,024 --> 00:15:49,526
For dinner?

324
00:15:49,527 --> 00:15:51,027
Yes.

325
00:15:51,028 --> 00:15:52,828
Yes!

326
00:15:53,998 --> 00:15:56,416
I'll put it in the schedule.

327
00:15:56,417 --> 00:15:57,450
Do that.

328
00:15:57,451 --> 00:15:59,368
In yellow.

329
00:16:00,371 --> 00:16:02,288
Of course.

330
00:16:05,126 --> 00:16:07,843

00:16:09,213 --> 00:16:11,431
[Contestant mindy]:
Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!

332
00:16:11,432 --> 00:16:12,883
[Perturbed huff]

333
00:16:12,884 --> 00:16:14,217
Are you okay?

334
00:16:14,218 --> 00:16:16,219
Well, they've got me scheduled
for my talent rehearsal

335
00:16:16,220 --> 00:16:17,437
at the same time I'm supposed to
get my nails done,

336
00:16:17,438 --> 00:16:19,439
but if I move the nails,
then there's no time

337
00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:21,391
for some fitting
they've got me down for.

338
00:16:21,392 --> 00:16:23,059
Or maybe
I shouldn't do my nails.

339
00:16:23,060 --> 00:16:25,061
Maybe I shouldn't rehearse,
but if I don't, then... oh!

340
00:16:25,062 --> 00:16:27,280
This is worse
than a stampede on Sunday.

341
00:16:27,281 --> 00:16:30,116
No. No! This
is wonderful.

342
00:16:30,117 --> 00:16:31,234
You're miss...

343
00:16:31,235 --> 00:16:32,235
Wyoming.

344
00:16:32,236 --> 00:16:33,987
You're miss Wyoming!

345
00:16:33,988 --> 00:16:35,322
And look where you are.

346
00:16:35,323 --> 00:16:36,907
Well, that's the problem!

347
00:16:36,908 --> 00:16:38,575
There are more
people in this hotel

348
00:16:38,576 --> 00:16:39,876
than there are in big piney.

349
00:16:39,877 --> 00:16:42,078
Oh, big piney, Wyoming.
Population 576.

350
00:16:42,079 --> 00:16:43,880
How do you know that?

351
00:16:43,881 --> 00:16:45,916
Oh, I have
a photographic memory.

352
00:16:45,917 --> 00:16:47,467
I remember everything I read.

353
00:16:47,468 --> 00:16:49,970
Well, as long as
I remember to remember.

354
00:16:49,971 --> 00:16:51,254
[Laughs] It's hard to remember

355
00:16:51,255 --> 00:16:53,306
anything in a place like this.

356
00:16:53,307 --> 00:16:54,641
I'm afraid,
when I get up to sing,

357
00:16:54,642 --> 00:16:56,092
there'll be so many
people in the room,

358
00:16:56,093 --> 00:16:57,594
I'll forget the words.

359
00:16:57,595 --> 00:16:59,429
And the notes.

360
00:16:59,430 --> 00:17:01,014
And the song.

361
00:17:01,015 --> 00:17:02,015
Look.

362
00:17:02,016 --> 00:17:03,567
I don't have to
rehearse tomorrow.

363
00:17:03,568 --> 00:17:05,352
Why don't you take my time?

364
00:17:05,353 --> 00:17:06,353
I don't mind.

365
00:17:06,354 --> 00:17:07,938
- Really?
- Yeah!

366
00:17:07,939 --> 00:17:09,940
Miss Colorado.

367
00:17:09,941 --> 00:17:13,360
We're practically
neighbors, right?

368
00:17:13,361 --> 00:17:15,445
Okay, Ms. Mclnerney,
you are on the eighth floor.

369
00:17:15,446 --> 00:17:16,446
Thank you.

370
00:17:16,447 --> 00:17:19,248
Norman, you are on the sixth.

371
00:17:20,284 --> 00:17:22,451
Oh, my goodness.

372
00:17:23,454 --> 00:17:24,454
[Man]: Thank you
very much.

373
00:17:24,455 --> 00:17:26,006
Oh!

374
00:17:26,007 --> 00:17:27,591
It's Phoebe.

375
00:17:27,592 --> 00:17:29,209
Hey! What
a surprise.

376
00:17:29,210 --> 00:17:30,210
I can't believe it!

377
00:17:30,211 --> 00:17:31,211
- For heaven's sake.
- Hi!

378
00:17:31,212 --> 00:17:33,680
Harper.
Oliver O'Toole.

379
00:17:33,681 --> 00:17:34,681
For heaven's sake,

380
00:17:34,682 --> 00:17:36,016
what are you guys doing here?

381
00:17:36,017 --> 00:17:37,634
- Are you staying here?
- Yeah.

382
00:17:37,635 --> 00:17:40,136
Where's Rita?

383
00:17:40,137 --> 00:17:41,354
Oh, she's in the pageant.

384
00:17:41,355 --> 00:17:42,439
We came to cheer her on.

385
00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:43,974
And what brings you
to the capitol?

386
00:17:43,975 --> 00:17:46,610
Oh, we're trying to get
some answers about Randilynn.

387
00:17:46,611 --> 00:17:48,645
See if there's any...

388
00:17:48,646 --> 00:17:50,196
Resolution.

389
00:17:50,197 --> 00:17:51,948
We had an appointment

390
00:17:51,949 --> 00:17:53,650
with someone from
the state department tomorrow,

391
00:17:53,651 --> 00:17:56,987
but it looks like
they've had to postpone.

392
00:17:56,988 --> 00:17:58,321
Not again.

393
00:17:58,322 --> 00:18:00,123
[Norman]: Well, that's a shame.

394
00:18:00,124 --> 00:18:01,658
[Harper]:
Well, that's Washington.

395
00:18:01,659 --> 00:18:04,327
We've spent two years,

396
00:18:04,328 --> 00:18:05,662
but we always seem to knock
on the wrong doors.

397
00:18:05,663 --> 00:18:08,665
Isn't there anyone else
that you can meet with?

398
00:18:08,666 --> 00:18:11,084
Mm, we've run out of ideas.

399
00:18:11,085 --> 00:18:13,253
I've got a standing appointment

400
00:18:13,254 --> 00:18:15,005
with a dialysis machine
back home,

401
00:18:15,006 --> 00:18:16,423
so we can't extend the trip.

402
00:18:16,424 --> 00:18:18,174
[Oliver]: Of course.

403
00:18:18,175 --> 00:18:20,677
Would you excuse me
for just a minute?

404
00:18:20,678 --> 00:18:23,346
[♪♪]

405
00:18:23,347 --> 00:18:24,681
So, we have you penciled in

406
00:18:24,682 --> 00:18:26,516
to join us
at 9:30 tomorrow.

407
00:18:26,517 --> 00:18:27,517
Excellent.

408
00:18:27,518 --> 00:18:29,019
Can't have you heading back

409
00:18:29,020 --> 00:18:30,186
without having at least

410
00:18:30,187 --> 00:18:32,188
some good memories
in Washington.

411
00:18:32,189 --> 00:18:33,323
Sounds like a plan!

412
00:18:33,324 --> 00:18:35,692
Okay, well, we'll see
you guys tomorrow, then.

413
00:18:35,693 --> 00:18:37,360
- Okay, great.
- Bye.

414
00:18:37,361 --> 00:18:38,744
Bye.

415
00:18:42,166 --> 00:18:43,249
Wow.

416
00:18:43,250 --> 00:18:45,335
What a coincidence, huh?

417
00:18:45,336 --> 00:18:47,754
I don't really
believe in them, Norman.

418
00:18:47,755 --> 00:18:49,756
[Chuckling breathlessly]

419
00:18:49,757 --> 00:18:51,374
Is that who I think it is?

420
00:18:51,375 --> 00:18:53,043
Yeah! It's Phoebe Amidon.

421
00:18:53,044 --> 00:18:54,094
No way!

422
00:18:54,095 --> 00:18:55,545
You've checked in?

423
00:18:55,546 --> 00:18:57,297
Oh, yeah, I've got my room key

424
00:18:57,298 --> 00:18:58,682
and my roommate...
Miss Louisiana.

425
00:18:58,683 --> 00:19:02,102
It sounds like you have
some pretty serious competition.

426
00:19:02,103 --> 00:19:03,436
Oh, I don't mind.

427
00:19:03,437 --> 00:19:05,355
There's more to life
than winning, right?

428
00:19:05,356 --> 00:19:07,724
Right. Um, speaking of which,

429
00:19:07,725 --> 00:19:09,392
I was thinking that,
before dinner,

430
00:19:09,393 --> 00:19:11,144
um, you and I could...

431
00:19:11,145 --> 00:19:12,228
[Mindy]: Rita!

432
00:19:12,229 --> 00:19:13,780
We're going out for yogurt.
You wanna come?

433
00:19:13,781 --> 00:19:15,565
Oh! Um...

434
00:19:15,566 --> 00:19:17,233
Yeah! [Giggles]

435
00:19:17,234 --> 00:19:18,233
Bye, guys!

436
00:19:21,322 --> 00:19:23,123
She seems happy.

437
00:19:23,124 --> 00:19:24,240
Yes. She does.

438
00:19:24,241 --> 00:19:26,793
I suppose it's just
the three of us for dinner.

439
00:19:26,794 --> 00:19:28,211
Yeah. Yeah.

440
00:19:28,212 --> 00:19:31,330
Where is
Ms. Mclnerney?

441
00:19:36,337 --> 00:19:38,755
Hi. It's Shane.

442
00:19:38,756 --> 00:19:42,475
I'm in town
at the Franklin Adams and...

443
00:19:42,476 --> 00:19:44,127
[Takes a breath]

444
00:19:44,128 --> 00:19:46,762
Steve, I-I need to see you.

445
00:19:55,015 --> 00:19:56,682
I'd like another Arnold Palmer.

446
00:19:56,683 --> 00:20:00,352
A little more Arnold than Palmer
this time, please.

447
00:20:00,353 --> 00:20:02,104
Why do they put
tiny umbrellas in drinks?

448
00:20:02,105 --> 00:20:04,156
Why not tiny cars?

449
00:20:04,157 --> 00:20:05,324
Or tiny cats?

450
00:20:05,325 --> 00:20:07,993
Something on your mind?

451
00:20:07,994 --> 00:20:11,580
I just keep thinking about
Phoebe coming all the way here

452
00:20:11,581 --> 00:20:15,333
to find out if anyone knows
what happened to her mother.

453
00:20:16,369 --> 00:20:21,006
Everything else just seems so...
Trivial compared to that.

454
00:20:21,007 --> 00:20:24,093
The miss special delivery
pageant

455
00:20:24,094 --> 00:20:27,379
is perhaps not an event
of great import

456
00:20:27,380 --> 00:20:29,598
to the world at large, Norman,

457
00:20:29,599 --> 00:20:32,468
but the world
is a terribly complicated place,

458
00:20:32,469 --> 00:20:34,219
and so much of it can be ugly.

459
00:20:34,220 --> 00:20:38,190
That's why what is gentle
and beautiful

460
00:20:38,191 --> 00:20:42,111
and joyful
is worth fighting to preserve.

461
00:20:42,112 --> 00:20:45,647
And it's also why we honor
those who fight.

462
00:20:45,648 --> 00:20:46,647
Yeah.

463
00:20:50,737 --> 00:20:52,737
So, Norman...

464
00:20:54,541 --> 00:20:56,492
What's in
the envelope? Hmm?

465
00:20:56,493 --> 00:20:58,410
Well, it's a surprise f...

[Heels clopping]

00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:02,214
[♪♪]

468
00:21:02,215 --> 00:21:04,132
Ms. Mclnerney.

469
00:21:05,135 --> 00:21:06,551
Hello, beautiful!

470
00:21:09,055 --> 00:21:10,388
- Ooh!
- Oh...

471
00:21:13,643 --> 00:21:15,260
Look at you!

472
00:21:15,261 --> 00:21:16,729
Whoo. Look at you...

473
00:21:16,730 --> 00:21:18,263
I got your call.

474
00:21:18,264 --> 00:21:19,815
Yes, and I thought
you were going to

475
00:21:19,816 --> 00:21:21,600
call me back.

476
00:21:21,601 --> 00:21:22,735
[Steve]: I was just
right around the corner.

477
00:21:22,736 --> 00:21:24,436
I couldn't wait,
so I staked out your hotel,

478
00:21:24,437 --> 00:21:26,238
figured you'd show up
sooner or later.

479
00:21:26,239 --> 00:21:28,407
[Shane, awkwardly]:
Yes, well, good timing.

480
00:21:28,408 --> 00:21:29,742
Uh, Steve Marek,

00:21:29,743 --> 00:21:31,777
these are my co-workers...

My boss, actually...

Oliver O'Toole

484
00:21:35,248 --> 00:21:36,531
and Norman Dorman.

Yes.

I heard about you guys.
You do great work.

00:21:42,589 --> 00:21:43,705
Oh, thank you.

489
00:21:43,706 --> 00:21:46,291
And what is it
you do for the post office?

490
00:21:46,292 --> 00:21:48,510
Oliver, Norman,
would it be okay

491
00:21:48,511 --> 00:21:51,713
if I begged off
of dinner tonight? Um...

492
00:21:51,714 --> 00:21:54,516
Steve and I have...

493
00:21:54,517 --> 00:21:56,134
Some catching up to do.

494
00:21:57,137 --> 00:21:59,138

00:29:34,911 --> 00:29:36,028
You seem...

664
00:29:36,029 --> 00:29:39,030
Deep in thought.

665
00:29:41,067 --> 00:29:42,534
Three years ago,

666
00:29:42,535 --> 00:29:45,837
I, uh, stood on this very spot
with my wife...

667
00:29:47,090 --> 00:29:52,260
Expounding on the early days
of the pony express.

668
00:29:54,514 --> 00:29:57,049
I turned around and, uh...

669
00:29:57,050 --> 00:29:59,101
She wasn't there.

670
00:29:59,102 --> 00:30:03,605
I stood here waiting and waiting
until they closed,

671
00:30:03,606 --> 00:30:04,973
but, by then,

672
00:30:04,974 --> 00:30:08,894
she'd already left me
and caught a plane to Paris.

673
00:30:08,895 --> 00:30:11,229
That must have been
very painful.

674
00:30:13,633 --> 00:30:15,983
Why did you come back here
today?

675
00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:22,707
Closure.

676
00:30:24,077 --> 00:30:26,994
You remind me of Randilynn.

677
00:30:28,047 --> 00:30:30,799
When she was...
Not even two,

678
00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:33,552
she could barely talk,
but she could walk.

679
00:30:33,553 --> 00:30:35,921
We couldn't keep up with her.

680
00:30:35,922 --> 00:30:38,674
One day, I turned around
and she was gone,

681
00:30:38,675 --> 00:30:41,894
then I heard this huge bang.

682
00:30:41,895 --> 00:30:44,730
I went running into the bedroom
and there she is,

683
00:30:44,731 --> 00:30:46,148
on the floor, sobbing.

684
00:30:46,149 --> 00:30:48,317
I said,
"honey, what happened?"

685
00:30:48,318 --> 00:30:51,320
Well, she was crying so hard,
she couldn't tell me,

686
00:30:51,321 --> 00:30:53,071
so she... she climbed up
on the bed

687
00:30:53,072 --> 00:30:55,774
and rolled off again
just to show me.

688
00:30:55,775 --> 00:30:57,159
[Both laughing]

689
00:30:57,160 --> 00:30:58,243
That kid...

690
00:30:58,244 --> 00:31:00,329
She was always going back

691
00:31:00,330 --> 00:31:03,248
to the most painful places
in her life

692
00:31:03,249 --> 00:31:05,866
to make some sense of the pain.

693
00:31:09,038 --> 00:31:11,123
All four verses?

694
00:31:11,124 --> 00:31:13,208
Yeah. And if
that didn't work,

695
00:31:13,209 --> 00:31:14,259
she'd do every verse

696
00:31:14,260 --> 00:31:15,661
of the star-
spangled banner, too.

697
00:31:15,662 --> 00:31:17,796
Wow. That
is pretty patriotic.

698
00:31:17,797 --> 00:31:20,799
She was.

699
00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:23,635
Hey! Phoebe!
How are you?

700
00:31:23,636 --> 00:31:24,636
- I'm good.
- How's lib?

701
00:31:24,637 --> 00:31:25,771
- She's getting fat.
- Oh!

702
00:31:25,772 --> 00:31:27,639
I made the neighbors
promise to walk her

703
00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:28,806
twice a day while we were gone.

704
00:31:29,809 --> 00:31:30,842
I love your crown.

705
00:31:30,843 --> 00:31:31,860
Oh, thank you!

706
00:31:31,861 --> 00:31:33,612
I have to wear it everywhere.

707
00:31:33,613 --> 00:31:34,896
Photo shoots, interviews,

708
00:31:34,897 --> 00:31:37,783
even a lecture on sportsmanship

709

miss special handling...

710
00:31:39,619 --> 00:31:40,953
What's that?

711
00:31:40,954 --> 00:31:43,789
Oh, it's like
miss congeniality, only postal.

712
00:31:43,790 --> 00:31:44,873
[Rita]: Anyways,

713
00:31:44,874 --> 00:31:47,743
I am free as a bird
for the rest of the day.

714
00:31:47,744 --> 00:31:48,744
Great, uh, because

715
00:31:48,745 --> 00:31:50,379
I have something back
at the hotel that...

716
00:31:50,380 --> 00:31:51,380
[Shane]: Phoebe!

717
00:31:51,381 --> 00:31:52,631
[Shane rushes up]

718
00:31:52,632 --> 00:31:54,049
After lunch,

719
00:31:54,050 --> 00:31:56,168
I would like to take you
and your grandfather

720
00:31:56,169 --> 00:31:57,219
to meet a friend of mine.

721
00:31:57,220 --> 00:32:00,172
I can't promise anything, but...

722
00:32:00,173 --> 00:32:01,807
[Oliver]: Ms. Mclnerney.

723
00:32:01,808 --> 00:32:03,008
[Quiet gasping]

724
00:32:03,009 --> 00:32:05,676
Grandpa!
Are you all right?

725
00:32:06,846 --> 00:32:08,346
Grandpa?

726
00:32:09,349 --> 00:32:11,350
[Door bangs]

727
00:32:11,351 --> 00:32:13,018
I think he just
overdid it a bit,

728
00:32:13,019 --> 00:32:14,770
but we'll have him
checked out just in case.

729
00:32:14,771 --> 00:32:16,854
Thanks, Norman.

730
00:32:18,858 --> 00:32:21,108
Get some rest, Harper.

731
00:32:22,328 --> 00:32:24,830
Well, I guess it's up to us

732
00:32:24,831 --> 00:32:25,914
to keep that appointment.

733
00:32:25,915 --> 00:32:27,866
What appointment?

734
00:32:27,867 --> 00:32:30,919
So you attended
this meeting yesterday

735
00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:32,838
as well, Ms. Hayworth?

736
00:32:32,839 --> 00:32:36,040
Uh, it's "Haywith,"
with an "I".

737
00:32:37,043 --> 00:32:38,844
Oh.

738
00:32:38,845 --> 00:32:40,762
Yes, I did.

739
00:32:40,763 --> 00:32:43,215
I had a free afternoon off,
so I went along.

740
00:32:43,216 --> 00:32:45,216
And I am very glad that I did.

741
00:32:47,020 --> 00:32:49,888
I think. [Nervous chuckle]

742
00:32:49,889 --> 00:32:52,224
Am I in trouble?

743
00:32:52,225 --> 00:32:54,726
Just give us the facts,
Ms. Haywith.

744
00:32:54,727 --> 00:32:55,861
Oh, okay.

745
00:32:55,862 --> 00:32:57,145
Well, first of all,

746
00:32:57,146 --> 00:32:59,196
I had to leave my crown
at the door.

747
00:33:00,199 --> 00:33:01,983
Oh...

748
00:33:01,984 --> 00:33:04,285
I feel so naked without it.

749
00:33:07,740 --> 00:33:09,124
Here he comes.

750
00:33:09,125 --> 00:33:11,209
Oh.

751
00:33:11,210 --> 00:33:14,078
[Footsteps approaching]

752
00:33:15,131 --> 00:33:16,415
I did some digging.

753
00:33:16,416 --> 00:33:18,417
I got ahold of the file...

754
00:33:18,418 --> 00:33:20,886
It's an active, working case.

755
00:33:20,887 --> 00:33:22,137
Now, we never give up
on our own,

756
00:33:22,138 --> 00:33:23,422
no matter how long it takes,

757
00:33:23,423 --> 00:33:27,309
but, after reading through this,
we might be running out of time.

758
00:33:27,310 --> 00:33:30,761
So you don't believe
she was killed in the mission?

759
00:33:33,266 --> 00:33:36,017
Look, I can't read you
into the file,

760
00:33:36,018 --> 00:33:38,320
but I can say that,
as of six months ago,

761
00:33:38,321 --> 00:33:40,856
I personally believe
lieutenant Amidon was alive

762
00:33:40,857 --> 00:33:43,908
and being held
somewhere near Pakistan.

763
00:33:45,161 --> 00:33:47,446
Likely by the insurgents
that attacked her team

764
00:33:47,447 --> 00:33:49,448
when she disappeared.

765
00:33:49,449 --> 00:33:51,333
Then you think
she was captured?

766
00:33:51,334 --> 00:33:53,118
Off the record?

[Shane]:
Go on, please.

768
00:33:56,873 --> 00:33:59,458
[Exhaling deeply] Well,
lieutenant Amidon was a medic.

769
00:33:59,459 --> 00:34:02,294
She trained for
the cultural support teams,

770
00:34:02,295 --> 00:34:04,179
who interface with the Afghans,

771
00:34:04,180 --> 00:34:05,213
collected intelligence.

772
00:34:05,214 --> 00:34:06,264
See, the male soldiers

773
00:34:06,265 --> 00:34:07,799
<i>couldn't talk to Afghan women,</i>

774
00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:09,534
<i>but the female soldiers could.</i>

775
00:34:09,535 --> 00:34:11,970
<i>What seemed like
suspicious activity...</i>

776

<i>Going off-base,
consorting with the locals...</i>

<i>Had actually been
covertly sanctioned by the army.</i>

778

See, we can't always
answer allegations

779
00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:22,197
without putting
other people in danger,

780
00:34:22,198 --> 00:34:24,366
so the whole truth
about lieutenant Amidon

781
00:34:24,367 --> 00:34:26,318
is, really, yet to be told.

782
00:34:26,319 --> 00:34:29,370
Is she alive, Steve?

[Sets glasses down]

She went back
for two of our own,

who were cut down
in a firefight.

786
00:34:36,879 --> 00:34:39,498
Now, the insurgents
had withdrawn,

787
00:34:39,499 --> 00:34:40,999
but they waited, as they do,

788
00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:42,834
for the rescue team
to come back for the wounded.

789
00:34:42,835 --> 00:34:45,003
And then they ambushed them?

But not by any central group,

otherwise we would've
known more by now.

There was a rescue attempt
last year.

After that,

it appears that she was moved.

have been written
by lieutenant Amidon,

have we finally

Yes.

Oh, yes. That's when
Mr. Marek showed us the letter.

822

Well, he actually
didn't show us the letter,

that was the problem.

827
00:36:44,211 --> 00:36:45,295
from Afghanistan,

828
00:36:45,296 --> 00:36:46,579
made its way to us.

829
00:36:46,580 --> 00:36:47,580
It's not in an envelope.

830
00:36:47,581 --> 00:36:48,665
It's all Jerry-rigged together
with tape,

831
00:36:48,666 --> 00:36:49,749
it's addressed

832
00:36:49,750 --> 00:36:51,751
"f-e-e-b."

833
00:36:51,752 --> 00:36:54,253
"By the American secretary
of the military embassy,

834
00:36:54,254 --> 00:36:55,305
"Washington, D.C., U.S.A.,

835
00:36:55,306 --> 00:36:56,723
from soldier female."

836
00:36:56,724 --> 00:36:59,258
Now, the handwriting
on the outside is different

837
00:36:59,259 --> 00:37:00,593
from the inside.

838
00:37:00,594 --> 00:37:02,228
Lieutenant Amidon
may have written this,

839
00:37:02,229 --> 00:37:04,514
but somebody else mailed it
and routed it through kabul.

840
00:37:04,515 --> 00:37:06,316
Kabul has mail?

841
00:37:06,317 --> 00:37:07,817
Ah. You'd be surprised.

842
00:37:07,818 --> 00:37:10,820
They have quite an efficient
postal system in Afghanistan.

843
00:37:10,821 --> 00:37:12,188
[Rita]: Oh.

844
00:37:12,189 --> 00:37:14,607
And with all the cellphones
and laptops

845
00:37:14,608 --> 00:37:16,242
being hacked so often
out there,

846
00:37:16,243 --> 00:37:18,077
this may have been a good way

847
00:37:18,078 --> 00:37:20,279
to get a message through
unmonitored.

848
00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:21,447
I have always maintained that

849
00:37:21,448 --> 00:37:25,617
mail is still the gold standard
of human communication.

850
00:37:27,087 --> 00:37:28,588
Right.

851
00:37:28,589 --> 00:37:29,622
The problem is,

852
00:37:29,623 --> 00:37:31,124
I mean,
except for something in here

853
00:37:31,125 --> 00:37:32,375
about the fourth of July,

854
00:37:32,376 --> 00:37:34,344
it all really just appears
to be gibberish.

855
00:37:34,345 --> 00:37:36,429
But that's what we do
every day...

856
00:37:36,430 --> 00:37:39,465
We figure out letters
that don't make sense.

857
00:37:39,466 --> 00:37:40,516
Let's see.

858
00:37:40,517 --> 00:37:42,468
Oh, I-I can't let you
look at that.

859
00:37:42,469 --> 00:37:46,556
Oh, for heaven's sake, Steve.
We're all on the same side!

860
00:37:46,557 --> 00:37:49,442
It's classified.
I've shown you too much already.

861
00:37:49,443 --> 00:37:51,227
[Oliver]: Well, not to put
too fine a point on this,

862
00:37:51,228 --> 00:37:52,311
that was not addressed

863
00:37:52,312 --> 00:37:55,815
to the secretary,
but someone named "f-e-e-b,"

864
00:37:55,816 --> 00:37:58,317
which I submit is someone's
idea of how to spell "Phoebe,"

865
00:37:58,318 --> 00:38:00,570
and, therefore,
still has yet to be delivered

866
00:38:00,571 --> 00:38:02,155
to its intended recipient,

867
00:38:02,156 --> 00:38:03,322
and, therefore,
falls clearly under

868
00:38:03,323 --> 00:38:05,824
the jurisdiction of the united
states postal service.

869
00:38:07,127 --> 00:38:08,628

Well, that's
just not gonna happen.

873
00:38:14,251 --> 00:38:16,335
There's too much analysis ahead.

874
00:38:16,336 --> 00:38:18,504
There's handwriting,
DNA, cryptography.

875
00:38:18,505 --> 00:38:20,173
You think it's a coded message?

876
00:38:20,174 --> 00:38:21,841
[Steve]: I hope so,
otherwise, like I said,

877
00:38:21,842 --> 00:38:23,643
it just doesn't make any sense.

[Shane]: Steve...

I think I should tell you that
Rita has a photographic memory

885
00:38:42,279 --> 00:38:43,696
and there's
a pretty good chance

886

that she can remember everything
that letter said.

887

Ah, give or take a few
words here and there.

Your thumb was
covering some of it.

Sorry.

890

Well, let's just pretend
I didn't hear that.

891
00:38:52,506 --> 00:38:54,507
Fair enough.

892

If you come up with anything,

I'd like to hear about it.

894
00:38:56,844 --> 00:38:59,629
I didn't know
the "department of agriculture"

895
00:38:59,630 --> 00:39:01,380
was so clandestine.

896

You'd be surprised.

A minor cog in the wheel.

How is Harper?

903
00:39:24,905 --> 00:39:27,707
[Norman]: Oh, well, I wanted
to take him to see a doctor,

904
00:39:27,708 --> 00:39:30,576
but he insisted on going back
to the hotel with Phoebe.

905
00:39:30,577 --> 00:39:34,447
Harper's a tough guy,
but he could use some good news.

906
00:39:34,448 --> 00:39:37,383
Then we need to
find him some, hmm?

907
00:39:37,384 --> 00:39:38,417
Well, how?

908
00:39:38,418 --> 00:39:40,585
We only had one... cog.

909
00:39:41,588 --> 00:39:43,923
We are an elite postal
task force, Norman.

910
00:39:43,924 --> 00:39:46,225
Wide powers
of postal discretion.

911
00:39:46,226 --> 00:39:48,894
I think it's time we used them.

912
00:39:50,514 --> 00:39:52,398
[Rita]: Okay, there was
only six lines.

913
00:39:52,399 --> 00:39:55,935
The first one was, um,
"the day will end fast."

914
00:39:55,936 --> 00:39:57,436
And then
"the birthday of liberty,"

915
00:39:57,437 --> 00:40:01,440
which is the fourth of July clue
that Steve was talking about.

Go on.

917

this weird thing...

"Return to the four-poster."

919
00:40:06,530 --> 00:40:08,497
What?

920
00:40:09,583 --> 00:40:11,584
Some kind of army post, maybe?

Hmm.

922
00:40:13,837 --> 00:40:15,788
Then there was, let me see,

923
00:40:15,789 --> 00:40:17,790
"song 5-9-1-6"

924

and "proverbial 1-8-1-0."

925
00:40:22,379 --> 00:40:23,679
Anything else?

926
00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:26,349
No, just half a word or two.

927
00:40:26,350 --> 00:40:28,467
"Grim feet."

928
00:40:28,468 --> 00:40:29,468
Grim feet?

929
00:40:29,469 --> 00:40:30,603
That's what it said.

00:40:30,604 --> 00:40:33,940
That's the part where
his thumb was covering it.

931

Steve's right.
None of this makes any sense.

932

Everything seems like
some sort of clue,

933

to someone.

Mm-hmm.

935

Well, if it was
addressed to Phoebe,

936

shouldn't she know
what it means?

937

Someone else
wrote that on the envelope,

Are you telling me

00:43:47,667 --> 00:43:50,836
that this committee convened
a special emergency session

1013
00:43:50,837 --> 00:43:55,674
because of the birthdate
of someone's pet?

1014
00:43:55,675 --> 00:43:58,728
The birthdate of
Phoebe Amidon's German Shepherd

1015
00:43:58,729 --> 00:44:01,480
is of utmost importance,
madame chairman.

1016
00:44:01,481 --> 00:44:03,516
It turned out to be

the rosetta stone...

1018

randilynn Amidon's life.

after his election,

1028
00:44:33,046 --> 00:44:34,680
before he moved into
the White House in 1860.

1029
00:44:34,681 --> 00:44:36,799
I wonder what they called
the Lincoln bedroom

Well, so...

1046
00:45:22,900 --> 00:45:24,451
[Oliver]: Harper,
when randilynn fell out

1047
00:45:24,452 --> 00:45:25,452
of that four-poster bed,

1048
00:45:25,453 --> 00:45:26,453
she was two.

1049
00:45:26,454 --> 00:45:29,239
Do you think
she remembers that?

1050
00:45:29,240 --> 00:45:30,907
It was a family joke, yes.

1051
00:45:30,908 --> 00:45:31,958
And you're sure

1052
00:45:31,959 --> 00:45:34,327
that Phoebe's puppy
was born on July 21st?

1053
00:45:34,328 --> 00:45:36,245
Yeah, can't forget that.

1054
00:45:37,798 --> 00:45:41,334
Do the words "grim feet"
mean anything to you?

1055
00:45:41,335 --> 00:45:43,887
Grim feet?

1056
00:45:43,888 --> 00:45:44,888
No.

1057
00:45:44,889 --> 00:45:47,724
And how about
"the day will end fast"?

1058
00:45:47,725 --> 00:45:48,842
Fast, "in a hurry,"

1059
00:45:48,843 --> 00:45:50,760
or fast as in "not eating"?

1060
00:45:50,761 --> 00:45:53,429
Hmm! Good point.

1061
00:45:54,849 --> 00:45:58,101
Um, "proverbial song"?

1062
00:45:58,102 --> 00:46:00,153
Proverbial...

1063
00:46:00,154 --> 00:46:01,988
Oh, my goodness.

1064
00:46:01,989 --> 00:46:03,773
Rita, we need a Bible.

1065
00:46:03,774 --> 00:46:04,908
There's one
in the drawer there.

1066
00:46:04,909 --> 00:46:08,078
Proverbs and song...
"Song" is the modern version

1067
00:46:08,079 --> 00:46:09,079
of the word "psalm."

1068
00:46:09,080 --> 00:46:10,080
Thank you.

1069
00:46:10,081 --> 00:46:12,365
Sir, is your daughter
a woman of faith?

1070
00:46:12,366 --> 00:46:13,833
Oh, yes. [Chuckles]

1071
00:46:13,834 --> 00:46:15,785
She even taught
some Bible study at the base.

1072
00:46:15,786 --> 00:46:16,920
So she knows her Bible?

1073
00:46:16,921 --> 00:46:18,171
Oh, chapter and verse.

1074
00:46:18,172 --> 00:46:22,008
[Rita]: Proverbs,
chapter 18, verse 10.

1075
00:46:22,009 --> 00:46:25,094
Psalms 59:16...

"The day will end fast."

is a high tower.

1083
00:46:40,311 --> 00:46:42,444
I need to call Steve.

1084
00:46:43,531 --> 00:46:44,981
Who's Steve?

1085
00:46:44,982 --> 00:46:45,982
Well, he's not

1086
00:46:45,983 --> 00:46:47,817
with the department
of agriculture.

1087
00:46:47,818 --> 00:46:51,321
Mr. O'Toole and his team
contacted me last night,

1088
00:46:51,322 --> 00:46:52,539
they suggested

1089
00:46:52,540 --> 00:46:55,291
the letter
was some form of escape plan

1090
00:46:55,292 --> 00:46:57,961
and they made
a rather persuasive case.

1091
00:46:57,962 --> 00:47:00,330
But not a conclusive one.

1092
00:47:00,331 --> 00:47:02,799
No. But I felt there was
enough information

1093
00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:03,883
to bring it to your attention,

1094
00:47:03,884 --> 00:47:06,970
especially considering
the deadline.

1095
00:47:06,971 --> 00:47:10,256
Well, go ahead, Mr. O'Toole.

1096
00:47:10,257 --> 00:47:11,925
Make your case.

1097
00:47:11,926 --> 00:47:13,893
Actually, I'd like to
turn that over

1098
00:47:13,894 --> 00:47:15,260
to my colleague,
Mr. Dorman.

1099
00:47:20,484 --> 00:47:23,402
Thank you, Mr. O'Toole.

1100
00:47:24,488 --> 00:47:28,024
Uh, as Ms. Haywith explained,
the second clue,

1101
00:47:28,025 --> 00:47:33,413
"the birthday of liberty"
is in reference to July 21st,

1102
00:47:33,414 --> 00:47:36,032
which happens to be tomorrow
and, not coincidentally,

1103
00:47:36,033 --> 00:47:39,419
is also the birthdate
of the Amidon family dog.

1104
00:47:39,420 --> 00:47:43,873
And that date is some sort of
"key" to the code, you say?

1105
00:47:43,874 --> 00:47:46,459
Yes, when paired
with the first clue...

1106
00:47:46,460 --> 00:47:48,428
"The day will end fast."

1107
00:47:48,429 --> 00:47:50,180
In Afghanistan,
and around the world,

1108
00:47:50,181 --> 00:47:53,967
the holy month of ramadan
is observed, uh,

1109
00:47:53,968 --> 00:47:57,303
with prayer, acts of charity,
and fasting.

1110
00:47:57,304 --> 00:47:59,606
This year, those 30 days
of fasting ended

1111
00:47:59,607 --> 00:48:02,559
with a traditional festival
of fast-breaking four days ago,

1112
00:48:02,560 --> 00:48:04,394
and we suggest that
that is the day

1113
00:48:04,395 --> 00:48:06,980
that lieutenant Amidon
chose to escape.

If she's actually escaped,

1122

it's likely she had help
from a local,

someone willing
to risk their life,

Even so,

it's hard to imagine,

1129
00:49:48,332 --> 00:49:50,633
because the punishment
for helping an American

1130

is death.

1131

escape four days ago,

where is she going?

1133

Well, that's the third clue.
"Return to the four-poster."

to an Amidon family joke...

and returned
to re-enact her fall.

1137
00:50:06,567 --> 00:50:09,319
[Steve]: Which would suggest
the village of darakht,

1138
00:50:09,320 --> 00:50:11,521
it was the site
of the original firefight

1139
00:50:11,522 --> 00:50:13,690
and the location where
lieutenant Amidon was seen last,

1140
00:50:13,691 --> 00:50:15,325
falling out of a helicopter.

1141

According
to Mr. Marek,

1142
00:50:16,527 --> 00:50:19,362
Darakht also has
a distinctive high tower,

1143
00:50:19,363 --> 00:50:22,198
and twice in her letter,
in clues four and five,

1144
00:50:22,199 --> 00:50:25,118
randilynn refers
to a biblical tower or fortress

1145
00:50:25,119 --> 00:50:29,372
as a place of safety
and refuge.

Wherever she is,

00:50:30,541 --> 00:50:32,709
we know she wasn't trained
in navigation

1148
00:50:32,710 --> 00:50:35,261
or advanced survival.

1149
00:50:35,262 --> 00:50:38,214
How can she possibly
make her way back to Darakht?

1150
00:50:38,215 --> 00:50:39,716
[Shane]: Lieutenant Amidon

1151
00:50:39,717 --> 00:50:42,051
is the daughter
of an air force captain.

1152
00:50:42,052 --> 00:50:44,137
Her husband
was killed in action in kabul.

1153
00:50:44,138 --> 00:50:46,439
She is an American soldier,

1154
00:50:46,440 --> 00:50:48,558
but she is also
an American mother,

1155
00:50:48,559 --> 00:50:51,778
and nothing is gonna keep
a woman like that

1156
00:50:51,779 --> 00:50:53,529
from doing whatever it takes

1157
00:50:53,530 --> 00:50:56,531
to find her way back
to her little girl.

1158
00:50:57,601 --> 00:51:00,068
[♪♪]

1159
00:51:36,190 --> 00:51:37,774
We cannot go on.

1160
00:51:37,775 --> 00:51:39,442
There is a roadblock ahead.

1161
00:51:39,443 --> 00:51:40,742
Come.

1162
00:51:41,845 --> 00:51:42,829
It's too dangerous

1163
00:51:42,830 --> 00:51:44,447
for you to stay in the truck.

1164
00:51:44,448 --> 00:51:46,582
I must go on
before they find you.

1165
00:51:46,583 --> 00:51:48,501
It's okay.

1166
00:51:48,502 --> 00:51:49,669
Wait for me there.

1167
00:51:49,670 --> 00:51:53,255
I will try and return tomorrow
and take you to Darakht.

1168
00:51:54,291 --> 00:51:55,625
I am sorry.

1169
00:51:55,626 --> 00:51:57,844
I have only a little food
to leave with you.

1170
00:51:57,845 --> 00:51:58,845
Please, no.

1171
00:51:58,846 --> 00:52:00,129
You take it.

1172
00:52:00,130 --> 00:52:02,131
You've done so much already.

1173
00:52:02,132 --> 00:52:03,549
No. The fast is over.

1174
00:52:03,550 --> 00:52:05,268
We must all celebrate.

1175
00:52:05,269 --> 00:52:07,387
Thank you.

1176
00:52:07,388 --> 00:52:10,473
If I am not back in two days,

1177
00:52:10,474 --> 00:52:12,442
please know that I have tried,
but I could not,

1178
00:52:12,443 --> 00:52:15,561
then you must walk
the rest of the way.

1179
00:52:15,562 --> 00:52:17,613
Always keep the mountains
on your right,

1180
00:52:17,614 --> 00:52:18,614
and at night,

00:52:18,615 --> 00:52:21,783
the brightest star
over that peak.

1182

It is very dangerous...
But God is good.

Yes.

But people, not always.

1185
00:52:31,745 --> 00:52:33,746
I think we are.

[Oliver] The letter
written by lieutenant Amidon

1199
00:54:14,503 --> 00:54:16,721
is, in fact, a roadmap
for a rescue mission

1200
00:54:16,722 --> 00:54:18,256
that began four days ago,

1201
00:54:18,257 --> 00:54:20,642
and we hope will end tomorrow

1202
00:54:20,643 --> 00:54:22,210
in a rendezvous
with American troops

1203
00:54:22,211 --> 00:54:25,597
in the very same place
where she was first captured...

1204
00:54:25,598 --> 00:54:28,566
The "high tower"
in the village of Darakht,

1205
00:54:28,567 --> 00:54:30,818
as indicated by the clues
she gave us.

1206
00:54:30,819 --> 00:54:33,571
Five out of six
so-called clues, Mr. O'Toole.

1207
00:54:33,572 --> 00:54:35,356
[Oliver]: Yes, well, uh,

1208
00:54:35,357 --> 00:54:36,858
the last clue
was partially obscured

1209
00:54:36,859 --> 00:54:38,660
when Ms. Haywith
glanced at the letter,

1210
00:54:38,661 --> 00:54:41,529
but she was able to make out
the words "grim feet."

1211
00:54:41,530 --> 00:54:44,699
We respectfully request
the opportunity

1212
00:54:44,700 --> 00:54:46,668
to inspect the actual letter

1213
00:54:46,669 --> 00:54:49,203
in order to decode
the final clue.

1214
00:54:49,204 --> 00:54:50,421
Ms. Haywith is fortunate

1215
00:54:50,422 --> 00:54:53,174
she hasn't been indicted
for reading and disseminating

1216
00:54:53,175 --> 00:54:55,426
the information
she has already seen.

1217
00:54:55,427 --> 00:54:58,296
And Mr. Marek may very well
be disciplined for allowing her,

1218
00:54:58,297 --> 00:54:59,380
or any of you,

1219
00:54:59,381 --> 00:55:01,883
to even become aware
of its existence.

1220
00:55:01,884 --> 00:55:03,635
Whatever "grim feet" may mean,

1221
00:55:03,636 --> 00:55:04,719
that is a matter

1222
00:55:04,720 --> 00:55:07,355
for our own intelligence service
to determine.

1223
00:55:07,356 --> 00:55:08,640
[Norman]:
But there isn't time!

1224
00:55:08,641 --> 00:55:10,725
She took a huge chance
sending that letter.

1225
00:55:10,726 --> 00:55:12,360
And here we are,
maybe the only people

1226
00:55:12,361 --> 00:55:14,395
who could solve that message
in time to save her.

1227
00:55:14,396 --> 00:55:17,448
Why would a soldier
hoping for rescue

1228
00:55:17,449 --> 00:55:19,901
purposely write
something obscure

1229
00:55:19,902 --> 00:55:22,570
and run the chance
that it wouldn't be decoded?

1230
00:55:22,571 --> 00:55:25,373
To protect anyone
coming to help her.

1231
00:55:25,374 --> 00:55:27,742
Having spent quite a bit
of time in the military,

1232
00:55:27,743 --> 00:55:28,743
madame chairman,

1233
00:55:28,744 --> 00:55:30,461
I can attest

1234
00:55:30,462 --> 00:55:32,797
that lieutenant Amidon
would know

1235
00:55:32,798 --> 00:55:35,917
that should someone intercept
a more specific letter,

1236
00:55:35,918 --> 00:55:40,254
that they could simply allow her
to reach her rendezvous point

1237
00:55:40,255 --> 00:55:43,257
and then wait to ambush
the entire rescue party.

1238
00:55:43,258 --> 00:55:45,643
It's what happened
the night she was captured.

1239
00:55:45,644 --> 00:55:47,844
She wouldn't
allow it to happen again.

1240
00:55:50,265 --> 00:55:53,233
We'll take
a five-minute break.

1241
00:55:54,520 --> 00:55:56,571
I can't go to prison, Norman.

1242
00:55:56,572 --> 00:55:57,772
I think she was just
saying that you could,

1243
00:55:57,773 --> 00:55:59,524
but you won't.

1244
00:55:59,525 --> 00:56:01,309
That's what I got
out of it, anyways.

1245
00:56:01,310 --> 00:56:02,276
I mean, if anyone's in trouble,

1246
00:56:02,277 --> 00:56:04,579
it's probably that Steve guy.

1247
00:56:04,580 --> 00:56:06,614
I had you vetted.

1248
00:56:06,615 --> 00:56:08,866
It's what we do around here.

1249
00:56:08,867 --> 00:56:10,501
As it turns out,

1250
00:56:10,502 --> 00:56:12,704
you're what we call
"a solid citizen."

1251
00:56:12,705 --> 00:56:16,424
Oh, well, I take that
as a compliment.

1252
00:56:16,425 --> 00:56:18,342
I'm coming to suspect

1253
00:56:18,343 --> 00:56:20,460
that perhaps you are one,
as well.

1254
00:56:21,930 --> 00:56:24,631
Maybe Shane has good taste.

1255
00:56:25,718 --> 00:56:27,635
Hmm. [Chuckles]

1256
00:56:27,636 --> 00:56:30,772
I must confess, at first,
I was, um...

1257
00:56:30,773 --> 00:56:33,890
Suspicious of your motives
for helping us.

1258
00:56:35,978 --> 00:56:37,729
Look, I know
it sounds kind of corny,

1259
00:56:37,730 --> 00:56:39,280
but I still believe
in all that stuff

1260
00:56:39,281 --> 00:56:40,698
we used to sing
when we were kids...

1261
00:56:40,699 --> 00:56:43,367
The grand old flag,
Amber waves of grain,

1262
00:56:43,368 --> 00:56:44,786
"the halls of montezuma."

1263
00:56:44,787 --> 00:56:46,988
[Shane]: Excuse me, gentlemen.

1264
00:56:46,989 --> 00:56:49,707
Hate to interrupt,
but they're going back in.

1265
00:56:49,708 --> 00:56:53,711
We were just, uh,
discussing patriotism.

1266
00:56:53,712 --> 00:56:54,912
[Chuckles]

1267
00:56:54,913 --> 00:56:56,748
[Norman]: Phoebe was
telling me yesterday

1268
00:56:56,749 --> 00:56:59,000
her mom was so patriotic that,
instead of lullabies,

1269
00:56:59,001 --> 00:57:01,586
she'd sing all the verses
to "the star-spangled banner"

1270
00:57:01,587 --> 00:57:03,553
and "America the beautiful"
every night.

1271
00:57:04,890 --> 00:57:06,841
All the verses?

1272
00:57:06,842 --> 00:57:09,426
[♪♪]

1273
00:57:11,513 --> 00:57:12,847
It is the conclusion
of this committee,

1274
00:57:12,848 --> 00:57:14,348
that although you folks

1275
00:57:14,349 --> 00:57:16,651
have painted
a very entertaining story,

1276
00:57:16,652 --> 00:57:18,770
we are unwilling
to see American troops

1277
00:57:18,771 --> 00:57:20,988
put in harm's way at this time

1278
00:57:20,989 --> 00:57:22,490
for a rescue mission

1279
00:57:22,491 --> 00:57:24,492
based on a loose interpretation

1280
00:57:24,493 --> 00:57:26,911
of five so-called clues
in a letter.

1281
00:57:26,912 --> 00:57:28,529
Madame chairman...

1282
00:57:28,530 --> 00:57:30,865
If you can't tell us
what "grim feet" means,

1283
00:57:30,866 --> 00:57:32,033
Mr. O'Toole,

1284
00:57:32,034 --> 00:57:34,619
it renders the rest
of your conjectures useless.

1285
00:57:34,620 --> 00:57:39,590
A few dates and a reference
to an old outpost with a tower

1286
00:57:39,591 --> 00:57:42,376
is no indication
of intent to escape.

1287
00:57:42,377 --> 00:57:43,678
- But we have it!
- Mr. O'Toole...

1288
00:57:43,679 --> 00:57:45,429
If Mr. Marek
would just confirm

1289
00:57:45,430 --> 00:57:46,881
the complete phrase
in that letter...

1290
00:57:46,882 --> 00:57:49,016
The words ending in grim feet...
We can give you

1291
00:57:49,017 --> 00:57:51,018
lieutenant Amidon's
promise to escape.

1292

You've shared enough already,
Mr. Marek.

1293
00:57:53,021 --> 00:57:54,889
Do not respond.

1294
00:57:54,890 --> 00:57:57,692
Steve, the clue
that Rita couldn't read...

1295
00:57:57,693 --> 00:58:00,645
Was it "pilgrim feet?"

The truth, now, please.

1297
00:58:02,447 --> 00:58:03,948
Answer that,
Mr. Marek...

Mr. Marek... that last clue...

1302
00:58:23,418 --> 00:58:25,969
Was it "pilgrim feet?"

1303
00:58:33,929 --> 00:58:35,062
Yes.

00:58:41,770 --> 00:58:43,604
of "America the beautiful"
every night

1307
00:58:43,605 --> 00:58:45,940
as a lullaby
to her little girl.

1308
00:58:45,941 --> 00:58:47,158
Every verse, including,

1309
00:58:47,159 --> 00:58:49,694
"oh, beautiful for pilgrim feet

"whose Stern impassioned stress
a thoroughfare for freedom

1312
00:58:54,700 --> 00:58:56,500
Ladies and gentlemen,

1313
00:58:56,501 --> 00:59:00,154
randilynn Amidon is somewhere
in Afghanistan tonight,

1314
00:59:00,155 --> 00:59:02,557
beating a thoroughfare
across the wilderness

1315
00:59:02,558 --> 00:59:04,425
in search of that tower,

1316
00:59:04,426 --> 00:59:06,127
in search of everything
we stand for,

1317
00:59:06,128 --> 00:59:07,428
in search... in search of

1318
00:59:07,429 --> 00:59:11,632
the freedom
that she was willing to die for.

1319
00:59:11,633 --> 00:59:14,802
And somewhere
near that same wilderness

1320
00:59:14,803 --> 00:59:16,470
is a band of her brothers

1321
00:59:16,471 --> 00:59:18,890
with the courage
to die for her, for us,

1322
00:59:18,891 --> 00:59:20,140
to bring randilynn home...

[♪♪]

1324
00:59:26,865 --> 00:59:30,984
If you will just
have the courage to send them.

1325

[♪♪]

1326
00:59:57,250 --> 00:59:58,667
Have you heard anything?

1327
00:59:58,668 --> 01:00:00,285
[Shane]: Nothing.

1328
01:00:00,286 --> 01:00:01,286
I wish we could

1329
01:00:01,287 --> 01:00:04,256
tell Harper and Phoebe
what was going on.

1330
01:00:04,257 --> 01:00:06,792
[Shane]: You know
we're sworn to secrecy, Norman.

1331
01:00:06,793 --> 01:00:08,460
How is he?

1332
01:00:08,461 --> 01:00:09,544
He's fine.

1333
01:00:09,545 --> 01:00:11,963
We'll all be on
the same flight tomorrow.

1334
01:00:11,964 --> 01:00:14,266
We even made plans to
get together in Denver.

1335
01:00:14,267 --> 01:00:16,802
Think we'll have anything
to tell them by then?

1336
01:00:16,803 --> 01:00:18,804
I don't imagine we'll ever hear

1337
01:00:18,805 --> 01:00:20,806
what the committee
decides to do...

1338
01:00:20,807 --> 01:00:24,276
Unless, uh...
Unless the news is good.

1339
01:00:24,277 --> 01:00:26,812
But for now, however,

1340
01:00:26,813 --> 01:00:29,564
we must turn to the present.

1341
01:00:29,565 --> 01:00:31,316
Very best of luck, Rita.

1342
01:00:31,317 --> 01:00:32,784
Oh, thank you.

1343
01:00:32,785 --> 01:00:34,319
Yes, and have fun!

1344
01:00:34,320 --> 01:00:35,620
I will.

1345
01:00:35,621 --> 01:00:37,489
I think...

1346
01:00:37,490 --> 01:00:38,990
You might have a friend

1347
01:00:38,991 --> 01:00:40,992
that needs to be
reminded of that.

1348
01:00:40,993 --> 01:00:43,795
[Rita]: Oh! Oh, my goodness.

1349
01:00:43,796 --> 01:00:46,498
Okay. I better get going, guys.

1350
01:00:46,499 --> 01:00:47,833
Uh, I'll see you later.

1351
01:00:47,834 --> 01:00:49,418
Um... Rita?

1352
01:00:49,419 --> 01:00:51,635
I'll be right back.

1353
01:00:54,340 --> 01:00:56,007
[Heavy sigh]

1354
01:00:56,008 --> 01:00:58,843
Norman?
You all right?

1355
01:01:00,012 --> 01:01:03,398
I have a present for Rita.

1356
01:01:03,399 --> 01:01:05,983
I just wanted her to know...

1357
01:01:07,353 --> 01:01:08,403
If she wins,

1358
01:01:08,404 --> 01:01:10,739
she'll be gone
for a whole year,

1359
01:01:10,740 --> 01:01:13,491
traveling around,
giving speeches...

1360
01:01:14,660 --> 01:01:17,696
Shaking hands with people,

1361
01:01:17,697 --> 01:01:19,948
other people...

1362
01:01:19,949 --> 01:01:22,667
Are you afraid she'll forget...

1363
01:01:22,668 --> 01:01:23,834
Us?

1364
01:01:25,955 --> 01:01:28,540
There are a lot more things
on this earth

1365
01:01:28,541 --> 01:01:31,093
than being
miss special delivery, you know.

1366
01:01:31,094 --> 01:01:32,677
I think, after this week,

1367
01:01:32,678 --> 01:01:35,463
we all know that, Norman.

1368
01:01:36,599 --> 01:01:39,016
[♪♪]

1369
01:01:49,695 --> 01:01:52,481
Oh, Norman, thank goodness!

1370
01:01:52,482 --> 01:01:54,483
We've missed the bus

1371
01:01:54,484 --> 01:01:57,868
and Mindy's having
a little trouble walking...

1372
01:01:59,071 --> 01:02:00,905
Forward.

1373
01:02:02,825 --> 01:02:03,824
Oh!

1374
01:02:09,415 --> 01:02:12,918
So are they going to
charge you with anything?

1375
01:02:12,919 --> 01:02:14,419
Probably not.

1376
01:02:14,420 --> 01:02:16,421
But if I do get arrested,
you'll bail me out, right?

1377
01:02:16,422 --> 01:02:19,090
I heard that Oliver
came into a good sum of money.

1378
01:02:19,091 --> 01:02:21,092
How do you know that?

1379
01:02:21,093 --> 01:02:22,928
Oh, never mind.

1380
01:02:22,929 --> 01:02:26,398
I don't think all that money's
gonna change him, though.

1381
01:02:26,399 --> 01:02:27,599
Well, that's too bad.

1382
01:02:27,600 --> 01:02:29,601
I was hoping you were going to
give me another chance.

1383
01:02:29,602 --> 01:02:30,986
Ah.

1384
01:02:30,987 --> 01:02:34,072
Well, there's
nothing actually official

1385
01:02:34,073 --> 01:02:36,440
between...

1386
01:02:43,916 --> 01:02:46,834
Between Oliver and me.

1387
01:02:48,788 --> 01:02:49,955
But unofficially?

1388
01:02:49,956 --> 01:02:52,089
Steve, we're friends.

1389
01:02:53,176 --> 01:02:55,126
And a solid friendship
is a good way

1390
01:02:55,127 --> 01:02:58,012
to start anything.

1391
01:02:59,465 --> 01:03:02,684
You were always so unavailable,

1392
01:03:02,685 --> 01:03:05,971
for that... with all that
"agricultural" work

1393
01:03:05,972 --> 01:03:07,939
that took you away
all the time.

1394
01:03:07,940 --> 01:03:10,141
I'm back.
I live here now.

1395
01:03:10,142 --> 01:03:13,527
[Shane]: It's not about
where you live, Steve.

1396
01:03:14,564 --> 01:03:16,731
Home is more than
just an address.

1397
01:03:16,732 --> 01:03:18,733
It's...

1398
01:03:18,734 --> 01:03:21,986
It's roses that you stick around
to watch grow.

1399
01:03:23,823 --> 01:03:26,741
It's a porch swing...

1400
01:03:26,742 --> 01:03:28,159
And...

1401
01:03:28,160 --> 01:03:30,495
Taking the time to swing on it.

1402

Of course.

You can neither
confirm nor deny.

I can neither confirm nor deny

1415
01:03:58,858 --> 01:04:00,025
that, based on a recommendation

1416
01:04:00,026 --> 01:04:03,028
from the senate subcommittee
for military actions,

1417
01:04:03,029 --> 01:04:04,829
the president has approved

1418
01:04:04,830 --> 01:04:06,948
a plan for
a special operations mission

1419

that commenced at 1600 hours
Washington time

with the objective

1421

of recovering
a lieutenant randilynn Amidon.

1422
01:04:14,090 --> 01:04:17,042
