thinking is
a small calico kitten, sir.
We have a small calico kitten.
- What?
- He wants a white one.
He wants a white one?
Let me talk to him.
He's mobilizing the sixth fleet.
Can I talk to him?
He's mobilizing the sixth fleet.
I hate it
when they start to meddle.
Can we have a white one?
He wants a white one.
Thank you.
Are we ready yet?
How soon can we get this cut?
4 or 5 hours.
That's good.
We can leak that to the press...
they can downlink it
on Tel star 401, transporter 21.
Makes you glad
you've lived this long.
This just in... a special report
from the Albanian front.
We'vejust received
information...
the young Albanian national
fleeing in this video...
is attempting to escape
terrorist reprisals...
in her village.
America has seldom witnessed...
a more poignant picture
of the human race...
Fantastic.
They used the same process...
with the last
Schwarzenegger movie.
Isn't that amazing
how they do that?
This is only the beginning.
Wait till we get the song.
Then you got the song, image,
merchandising tie-ins.
This is only the beginning.
We were right.
You're the man.
To the beginning.
Got your car.
I hate it
when they send these long ones.
- Did you make the turn OK?
- Not a problem.
I'm sorry.
You think it's too ostentatious?
Just fine. I'll stretch out.
Good. Just make due.
I'll see you in Nashville.
Go with the two-tone hat.
I don't care.
You work it out.
You. You must have had
similar situations in the past.
There are unconfirmed reports
from a reliable source...
that things are in motion.
What I'm hearing...
and this is a quote...
"The president
is looking for a swift...
painless, and victorious
conclusion to the war."
However, the source
will not go on record.
All I can tell you is this
comes from the highest level.
New York Times,
Washington Post...
Detroit Register,
Sacramento Bee...
all in remission.
No mention of the Firefly Girl.
10 days to go.
Big Bird lands when?
Five a.m.
Anything at the airport?
The press thought no.
What do you think?
Here's what I think.
Is it gonna rain?
Can you give me the weather
tomorrow morning?
Andrews, five a.m.
A young Albanian girl...
dressed in her... whatever.
Is there
some harvest festival...
an Albanian harvest festival,
something like that?
Find me
an Albanian harvest festival.
There's gotta be something.
Anyway, she gives him
the sacred whatever it is...
telling him this is a sacred
traditional offering...
given to the man
who ties the first sheaf...
the last sheaf,
who knows what sheaf?
Is she saying this in Albanian?
She's speaking in Albanian...
because this is the only way
it can be understood...
by her sacred, sainted,
and aged mother...
We're picking them up now.
The old lady starts to speak.
"You have brought peace
not only to this..."
The child speaks.
A face of innocence,
no cynicism.
The child says...
Are you getting this?
The old broad starts to cry.
Big Bird shrugs off
his secret service...
covers her with his coat,
end of story.
Can you find out if we could
get some rain tomorrow?
How is Big Bird holding up?
He's good.
He does want to know...
what does Motss want?
I don't know.
Ambassador to Togo.
No rain tomorrow at Andrews,
but there's rain at Boca Raton.
Then direct the plane to Boca.
Connie says
divert the plane to Boca.
What's happening?
Can I help you?
What's the problem?
We're in a rush.
Do you know who we are?
I'm afraid that's the trouble,
Miss Ames.
CIA.
I have this to say...
... every American man,
woman, and child...
What am I gonna do?
I have
a three-year-old daughter...
eventually headed
for orthodonture.
