No. Why’d you cross all my people off the list?

Question 16

因為妳想邀請的人都不重耍。( 他指著名單上的名字說。)這個沒有選票;這個不算金主。

Answer 16

‘Cause you don’t have anybody on it who means anything. (He points at names on the list.) No votes there; there’s no money.

Question 17

這是派對耶，肯尼﹒ 而且我們都很清楚:你根本就不知道怎麼辦派對﹒

Answer 17

It’s a party, Kenny. And the one thing we both can be sure of is that you don’t know how to have a party.

Question 18

對妳來說是派對，對我而言是政治。( 他拿起名單重看一遍。)那妳要請誰?說真的。

Answer 18

A party to you; politics to me. (He takes her list and looks at it again.) So, who do you want? For real.

我名單上的所有人都要﹒我不想在一個只關心選票跟獻金的宴會上耗一整晚，還要假裝很有興趣 的樣子。還有，別讓我的小孩在辦公室吃糖。

Answer 19

Everyone on my list. I don’t want to spend an entire evening pretending that your votes and money are more interesting than they really are. And I want my kids to stop eating the candy in the Oval Office.

Nope. You see, uh, Homer Capehart’s tirade today?

Question 29

看了 . 我真搞不懂，他都篤定當選了，幹嘛還要製造議題?不過我們還是得替拜伊助選，為我們六四年的 選舉打好基礎﹒

Answer 29

I did. I don’t see why he needs to invent an issue when he’s got his election sewn up. Even so, we should still go out for Bayh. It’s good groundwork for us in ‘64.

Been looking for that, uh, that Vietnam thing.

Question 31

Answer 33

I need to see the president, Kenny.

Question 35

不行，我現在就要見他，肯。

Answer 35

No, I need to see him now, Ken.

Question 36

那就上去吧。我會告訴他你要過去。

Answer 36

Then go on up. I’ll let him know you’re coming.

Question 37

你之前不是這樣說的。你不是…（他丟開手上的鉛筆。）給我聽著，你這沒用的東西。你去想辦法讓戴利指派的人能在巡迴法院工作，立刻就去！你這他媽的工作可是我們給的！

Answer 37

That’s not what you said. That’s not what (He throws the pencil.)—listen to me, you worthless piece of shit! Now you will put Daley’s man on the circuit, and you’ll do it today! You owe your goddamn job to this administration.

Question 38

是，我聽得出來你有多知恩圖報。 有個詞你得學起來。（甘迺迪走進來。） 政治裡就這個詞最重要：叫做忠誠。忠誠！（他向甘迺迪示意。）你還有什麼不懂的嗎？很好。

Answer 38

Yeah, I can, uh, I can hear how grateful you are. There’s a word you need to learn. (JFK enters.) It’s the only word in politics: it’s called loyalty. Loyalty! (He acknowledges JFK.) Now, any part of this you don’t understand? Good.

Not as far as the election goes.

麥克。讓我看下那個好嗎?謝謝。( 他把放大鏡遞給肯尼﹒)這兒。肯尼， 你以前專門
看投彈喵準器的。呃，別管那些標籤。你看那個像什麼?

Answer 43

Mac. This is, uh, can I see that for a second, please? Thank you.
(He passes Kenny a magnifying gIass.) Here, Kenny, you used to look down a bomb sight for a living . Uh, just ignore all the labels. What does that, uh, what does that look like to you?

Question 44

我不知道。那是什麼?

Answer 44

I don’t know. What is it?

Question 45

星期天早上， 一架我們的U2 高空偵察機拍到這些照片。蘇聯在古巴裝設了中程彈道飛彈﹒

On Sunday morning, one of our U2s took these pictures. The Soviets are putting medium-range ballistic missiles into
