couple of the lawyers...
...assigned to represent the burglars.
So?
They wouldn't have been assigned
to represent them...
...had anyone known the burglars
had arranged for their own counsel.
But they couldn't have arranged
for their own counsel...
...since they never even made a phone call.
So, if no one asked you to be here,
why are you here?
Don't take this personally, Mr....
Woodward.
lt'd be a mistake to do that.
l just don't have anything to say.
Did one of the other men involved
in the break-in call you?
Why do you assume there were
other people involved?
One of your clients
was arrested with a walkie-talkie.
They're not my clients.
l don't want to talk about it anymore.
You're a lawyer and you're here.
One of the defendants, Mr. Barker,
and l met at a social occasion once.
Where?
l have nothing else to say.
A Miami social occasion?
Mr. Starkey says
the Cubans were from Miami.
L-62, James McCord.
L-63, Bernard Barker.
L-64, Virgil Gonzales.
L-65, Eugenio Martinez.
L-66, Frank Sturgis.
Please step forward, Attorney Starkey.
All charged with Burglary Two.
-Mr. Starkey, will you represent all five?
-Yes, Your Honor.
And are all five gentlemen charged
with burglary, second degree?
Yes, Your Honor.
Your names, please,
and state your professions.
Bernard Barker, anti-Communist.
That, sir, is not your average profession.
James McCord, security consultant.
Where?
Government. Recently retired.
Where in the government?
Central Intelligence Agency.
Where?
The ClA.
Sturgis, Frank A., salvage operator.
Holy shit!
Eugenio Martinez, known as Gene Valdez.
James W. McCord, alias Edward Martin.
Frank Sturgis, alias Frank Fiorini.
All five of them had at least one alias.
Any proof they were bugging
the National Democratic Chairman?
Obviously, they were trying
to bug O'Brien....
They wouldn't go to all that trouble
to bug secretaries.
No, there's no proof.
l called a lawyer in Miami l know.
He said four of the arrested guys
were from Miami...
...Gonzales, Martinez, Sturgis, and....
-Barker.
-Yeah, Barker.
And all four were involved in ClA activities.
Only one was admitted ClA,
and the ClA won't confirm that.
ln fact, they deny even knowing McCord.
l think it's obvious that
with all that money and equipment...
...they weren't out to work by themselves.
Somebody hired them.
l'm not interested in what you think,
but in what you know.
We don't know why they wanted
to bug Democratic Headquarters.
lf they were working for themselves,
or for other individuals or organizations.
Could be a story, or just crazy Cubans.
Bachinski, when you get there, take it easy.
The police are nervous.
Bachinski, calling from
Police Headquarters.
A friend showed me
what they found in the hotel rooms...
...of the Watergate burglars.
There's something
you may want to look into.
Hang on. Okay, go ahead.
There's a strange entry in
two of the burglars' address books.
One says, ''H.H. at W.H. ''
The other says, ''Howard Hunt, W. House. ''
You can dial the White House direct,
can't you?
-What's the number?
-456-1414.
-White House.
-Howard Hunt, please.
Mr. Hunt isn't here just now.
He might be in Mr. Colson's office.
I'll connect you.
Thank you.
-Charles Colson's office.
-Howard Hunt, please.
-Mr. Hunt isn't here just now.
-Do you know when he'll be back?
No, I don't.
Thank you.
-Have you tried the Mullen Firm?
-l beg your pardon?
He is also a writer for
Mullen & Company Public Relations.
Do you have a phone,
or an address, please?
No, I don't. I'm sorry.
Thank you.
Who's Charles Colson?
Who's Charles Colson?
Sit down.
l'm glad you asked me that question.
The reason is because...
...if you had asked Simons or Bradlee,
they would've said:
''We'll have to fire this schmuck
at once because he's so dumb! ''
Who is Charles Colson?
The most powerful man
in the United States is President Nixon.
You've heard of him?
Charles Colson is
Special
