"I want you to run for governor against Mac Cullen." "I know my city and I know my state." "I know the dark side of us as well as the good." "We've got the tape." "It'll work." "The images show incumbent governor Mac Cullen on a recent trip to Miami with... a close friend?" "I'm doing a story, taking a deeper look at Tom Kane." " O'Hare." " Yeah." "How long before it's done?" "They're gonna put on some extra security at night." "But we come in the morning and we find these piles of dirt from the night." "I spoke to Emma last week." "Emma's a liability." "Do I need to remind you the danger she poses?" "It's called Lewy body." "There is no known cure." "Are you aware that your husband has been to see Dr. Harris?"

"Besides, at this stage in the game, checking polls is like digging up your garden to see how everything's growing." " Two weeks out?" " The metaphor still holds." "Next." " A quick follow-up, sir." " Yeah." "The young man with you at the airport-- can you finally confirm the nature of your relationship?" "There is no relationship." " So he's not your lover, sir?" " No, he is not."

" Who's in the pack?" " Salazar." " Ask him." " Yep." "Flight records indicate that you've traveled to Miami six times." "Governor, flight records indicate that you've traveled to Miami six times in the past two months." "What exactly was the nature of these trips?" "Those trips were, uh, personal in nature."

"And he doesn't need any face time with him because they are already good friends." "And just to clarify, he has no intentions of changing his suits or his hair."

"If he goes with tired insider-versus-outsider formulas, experience versus the future, he knows he may as well call it quits right now." "It's a primary." "These are voters who engage, okay?"

" Is he going to be all right?" " Yeah, of course." "I can tell a strong healthy boy when I see one." "But just to be safe, let's have the doctor take a look at him." "He'll be here within the hour."

" No." "If you think that private corporations like Scientia can do a better job of running our schools than the people that we elected, then why don't we just let them run the whole country?" "Education is not a consumer product." "It is an inalienable right guaranteed to all of us." "If we sell this right to profiteers, we defeat the purpose of education to create thinking citizens capable of governing themselves." "I for one am not willing to give that up so that Scientia can dictate how my kids learn based on their return-on-investment projections-  your two minutes is up." " No no." "It is up to me to decide that when I go to the ballot box and elect my school board." "That's how it is done in a free democracy." "Thank you." "Hi, everyone." "Forgive me for dropping in unannounced, but the matters involved here are too important." "When I went to school, this country was number one in the world in math and science." "Today we're 48th." "48th." "Underperforming schools-- that's the real threat to our children's freedom and future." "By outsourcing school services like lunches, janitorial work and transportation, we can increase the salaries of deserving teachers." "And because private companies are not bound by any union, they can and will fire those teachers who are doing a bad job, regardless of tenure." "Our purpose, after all, is to educate children, not to protect bad teachers." "Does it make sense to pay inflated prices for basketballs and school supplies when they can be bought in bulk and allocated across several school districts for a fraction of the cost?" "Now those costs are being put on you, on your children, on their learning." "The problems in our public schools are fixable, but we have to get our heads out of the clouds and do the math." "This is not a problem of ideology;" "it's about what works." "I think we all want what works." "Thanks for listening." "I'm so glad to finally meet you." "My husband has told me great things about you." "I've been meaning to call you about a project I'm spearheading over at children's memorial-- a neurology wing." " I'd really love your input on" " I'm sorry, Mrs. Kane, but I really can't discuss anything about your husband with you." "Excuse me." "Weakness is progressive, muscle wasting and muscle fasciculation, spasticity in the arms and legs and overactive tendon reflexes." "Neurological tests indicate upper and lower neuron degeneration, often eliciting the Babinski sign." "Transcranial stimulations and Enbrel injections directly into the spinal vein so far have proven ineffective, as have stem cell transplantation and gene therapy." "Tom..." "What do you want to do?" "With Solomou?" "Yeah." "Sir, if I may, I just wanted to say his loyalty has never been in question." "This was the first vote he ever broke ranks on." "My guess is he was sure the ordinance would pass without his vote and-  when is he up for re-election?" " This year." "Tell him he's going alone." "Sir, can I tell him?" "Thank you." "Alderman Mata?" "Excuse me." "What's your connection with Alberto Ruiz, sir?" " I know you." " I know who you are." "You know who I am." "We know who he is." " Maybe we should stop and talk." " No." "Was it true he was given the contract at your insistence?" "Maybe you know why his workers are being paid to sit around and do nothing." "What about you?" "Will you talk?" "Say something?" "Here, here's my card." "Nice people." "Get Stone on the phone." "Okay." "You can't just ask him?" "Things are too complicated with my father." "He's not really someone you ask for help." "So what are you trying to say?" "I thought that maybe you'd know some way of getting the medicine for less." "Well, it's the main burden of the clinic." "If-- if we can't find a way of getting it for cheaper, then they're going to close it down." "So you want to go into business with me?" "I just don't want to lose the clinic." "You sure you know what you're doing?" "That's all right." "I shouldn't have asked." "No no." "I'll see what I can do." "Okay?" "I don't know what I can do for you, Mac." "I'm asking for a runway, just enough to see us through the primary." "Yeah, but we've been here before." "You promised me O'Hare." "Yeah, and you could've gotten it if Kane hadn't decided to fuck over the rest of Illinois." "It happened under your watch." "It can come around again." "How's it going to be different?" "Each day is its own battle." "What I want right now, what I'm asking, is to be in a position to take another look at it when it does come around." "And I promise you, when it does this time, you'll be the happy beneficiary, guaranteed." "Here's what I know, Mac." "There are contracts right now in the hands of some spic alderman and his spic kind" "Moco what have you." "And I'm left with my thumb up my ass and my hard-working American crews out in the cold with no jobs, all because I backed the wrong horse." "It's a big state." "I'll find you something great." "20 shopping malls-- that's what we're looking at when we're looking at O'Hare money." "How long have we been friends, Jerry?" "Come on." " I think we're about finished here." " There's still a fight here." "Don't get emotional." "I'm talking about investment." "You couldn't be doing this to me at a worse time," "I swear to God." "Come back to me when you've got something real." "Then we can talk." "Quid pro quo." "You have a good day now." "You know, they ought to give some free concerts in the city this summer." "Split them up between Ravinia and Millennium Park." "We've got the number-one symphony in the country." "We ought to give the people who actually live here a chance to hear it sometime." " Hey, Jack." "Good to see ya." " Tom." "You've met Suzannah." "Yes, of course." "Lovely to see you again." " You know Stony." " Hi." "Oh, Stravinsky." "Dear God." "We have an understanding-- she gets season tickets to the symphony, I get them to the Cubs." "And every once in a while we force each other to go." "Cubbies?" "You poor thing." "How could you?" "Say, tell that music critic of yours to throw a good line or two in about the C.S.O." "Tell?" "I don't know." "I can suggest it." "Music critics answer only to God and Mozart." "Jack, Suzannah." "I'll be right back." "Yeah." "Whiskey, two." "Glenlivet rocks?" "This is Stone." "I've been trying to reach you." "It's this guy from "The Chicago Sentinel"" " Miller." "His questions are getting more pertinent." " Are you answering them?" " No, of course not." "He interviewed Ruiz too." " And?" " Nothing." "He listens much better now." "Good." "Keep it that way." " Mata." " Oh, thank you." "A reporter sniffing around O'Hare." " A problem?" " No, not yet." " What paper?" " "The Sentinel."" "Bentley." "He's right over there." "Too soon for that." "Until it's something it's nothing and we don't want to shine a light on nothing." " Cheers." " Yes indeed." "Quid pro quo." "12 years he got every contract he asked for." "Swink wouldn't exist without me." "Fucking O'Hare!" "If only we had known back then how much losing it would come back to haunt us." " You have an opinion?" " No, sir." "We could try a Barton, sir." " What?" " David Barton." "He used Facebook and got 20,000 hits in one day." "Fields, when he ran for Lieutenant Governor, won the primary by 5,000 votes." "Said it never would've happened without social media." "What we do is we put your face to the right of your profile page-- what is this, the fucking children's crusade?" "This is a primary." "Pri-ma-ry." "We're talking about political obsessives, medicaiders, nothing-to-doers, geriatrics." "Who the fuck else cares about primaries?" "And you're showing me fucking Facebook?" "For them it's a photo album." "Get that thing out of my face." "You're watching the infamous footage here, of course, of the intimate moment caught on tape between the governor and what is purported to be his male escort." "Move on, for the love of God!" "Mayor Kane, who has remained conspicuously silent..." "Wait." "...was asked if the current Cullen controversy would have any effect on his recent show of support for the governor." "Oh, you know me, guys." "I've always been an independent thinker." "I'm not about to change that now." "That's it:" "Generous, fair, non-judgmental." "He just buried me alive." "Sir, what if you went and talked to him?" "He hasn't committed himself one way or the other." "Maybe he just needs you to ask for his help." "You really do want to see me suck cock, don't you?" "The kid's got something." "Took me by surprise too." "I know." "Let's just say it." " He's got it all-- the youth, the looks..." " Wife and kids." "Makes perfect sense." "But is he coming in too soon?" "There is a youth vote, but it isn't big, not in a primary." "I've got him beat with men over 50, so it's a wash." "He's nine points ahead with women, but can he hold on to that with Walsh?" "That's what I'm afraid of." "He's untested." "It's a big risk-- too big." "15 years." "We've made a great team, Tom." "Send me back to Springfield one more time and we can groom the kid together." "I'm telling you, in four years I guarantee you he'll be able to take on the world." "Four years?" "Four years." "Panem et circenses." "Tom?" "Panem et circenses." "We have neglected our duties." "The people wait for only bread and circuses." "You okay, Tom?" "Am I okay?" " Yeah yeah." "You seem to" " Am I okay?" "Moral turpitude-- that's what I want to talk about." "You know why?" "Because even though I am a bad man and have done some bad fucking things," "I've always known why." "And when I look into the face of another bad man," "I see his deeds and I know his fucking soul." "You know what I see when I look at you, Mac?" "A piece of shit, a stain, a man whose moral turpitude taints the office he has sworn to uphold, compromises the people he has sworn to serve and who doesn't even have the fucking competence to do bad things well." "You don't deserve your position." "You don't deserve your place and title." "What you have..." "I gave you." "You want to help me?" "You don't have the stuff it takes." "So thank you for your offer to help, governor, but I'm afraid I must decline." "Get the fuck out of my office." "Excuse me, sir." "It's the right way to go." "We need fresh blood." "I'm right with you, Tom." "We'll make it work." " What was that about?" " What do you mean?" "In there with Cullen, what just happened?" "He gave us an opening." "Why didn't we take it?" "The mayor has decided to double down on the state treasurer for governor." "Is there something about that that you don't understand?" " No." " Good." "Come in." "That is not a feature on Tom Kane." "It was." "It led into something else." "Corruption in Chicago?" "That's not news." "That's a history lesson." "That's because you don't know where I'm going with it." "Okay, where are you going with it?" "I am dropping one bread crumb at a time to heighten the suspense." "You know, like Hitchcock-- the way he tells you only what he wants you to know when he wants you to know it, to keep you on the edge of your seat?" "Only more horrifying with lots of plot twists." "Just get me the fuckin' story." "I didn't tell you to stop." "That's right." "Do what you do without me." ""The steed does not retain its speed forever."" "Well, to put it more colloquially, the old gray mayor-- he ain't what he used to be." "You know, the biggest difference between the old gray mare and the old gray mayor?" "Peristalsis" "the muscular motion in the digestive track that moves the food toward the belly." "The mare has a throat that's twice as large as the mayor." "So the animal can easily swallow pills as large as hockey pucks, but the two-footed mayor-- he gags and chokes and heaves, finally inducing reverse peristalsis," "which is just a $10 word for "vomits."" "My kingdom..." "For a horse." "No no, that's fine, as long as you bring him back early." "No, he's got a soccer game at 9:00." "Okay, just tell him I love him and I'll see him in the morning." "Please stay where you are." "Don't run, don't scream." "It's not in your interest." "What do you want?" "I'm here to discuss your relocation." "Relocation?" "You'll be picked up in the morning at 9:00-- you and Max." "Whatever you can't take will be sent." "This is not a request." "Where?" "That's not important right now." "You'll be comfortable there." " How long for?" " Permanently." "Well, what about my work?" "This house?" "People will ask-- you don't have to concern yourself with that." "Wh-- what if I say no?" "You don't want your ex-husband to have sole custody of your son." "I didn't tell her anything." "I didn't even know she'd be there." "We know." "We just want to ensure your comfort and safety." "Now it's a machine gun." "A cow with a machine gun?" "Cows don't have machine guns." "Rawr!" "Hey, I just have a couple of last-minute changes" " I want to go over with you." " I'm a cow." "Okay." "Be quiet." "Sit still." "All right, so I think we should tread really lightly on the listen versus the respond." "Just keep it really upbeat." "Trust they're going to get it." " Meet me later." " Your kids are right there." "I know." "Meet me later." "We should start soon." "The boys are so loaded up on sugar," "I think we'll have to tie them down with anchors." "Not exactly the message we want to convey." "No." "Thank you for taking such good care of him." "And the mayor's support?" "We feel incredibly blessed." " Don't we?" " Blessed." "Yes, we do." " We do." " It's our pleasure." " All right, back to work." " Yeah." " I think we should." " Bye." "All right, back to work." "You, come here." "Come on." " Action!" " So how do we fix what's broken?" "Empty promises?" "Cookie-cutter solutions?" "Things that haven't worked before won't again." "And business as usual will give us the usual business." "We need to listen to each other, respond to our real concerns with real solutions." "This isn't about left/right, rich/poor;" "it's about fixing what's wrong for all of us." "Right, buddy?" "Together we can create a brighter tomorrow for our children and our children's children." "One hour from now." "Come on, say yes." "No." "Ben." "Good job today." "Are they buckled in?" "No." "Did it ever bother you that of the three mayors assassinated in this country, two were from Chicago?" "Harrison and Cermak." "Of course, the most that can be said of Harrison's death is that it put a damper on the World's Columbia Exposition." "But Cermak-- thousands packed into Chicago Stadium for his funeral, as if getting hit by the bullet intended for Roosevelt made him some kind of fuckin' hero." "Galling, really." "Cermak's real accomplishments-- defeating Big Bill Thompson and bringing the city's factions together, things that took real guts." "Nobody remembers those." "They don't care about what he did as mayor when he was alive." "All they remember is how he died-- taking a bullet for Roosevelt." "As if he had some choice." " Do you even know who I am?" " He does." "You looked like you could use a little something." "Oh." "We went for a nice walk today." "He knows everyone." "You'd think he were still the mayor." "He appreciates this, you know, your taking the time to visit him." "How do you know?" "I know when he feels good." " It's in his eyes." " Hmm." "And I know when he doesn't, when he needs something." "You're tired." "Camden Waste." "Dara Prescott." "Let's talk trash." "Hi, this is Sam Miller with "The Chicago Sentinel."" "Yes, Sam Miller of "The Chicago Sentinel,"" "what can I do for you?" "I'm doing an article about the cost effectiveness of interstate waste exportation and I was wondering if I could ask you" " a couple of questions." " Shoot." "A-- a barge left the Port of Chicago two nights ago." " Can you tell me if it's arrived yet?" " Just a minute." "A barge carrying 2,178 tons arrived at the transfer station at 8:23 Eastern Standard Time." "That would be us." "And can you tell me what the waste consisted of?" "The shipment will go through a waste identification process tomorrow." "But whatever it is, it ain't pretty," " I can tell you that." " What do you mean?" "It's got this sick chemical smell, like if you mixed orange juice and Mr. Clean." "Thank you, Dara." "You've been very helpful." "Oh, Inspector Gadget." " Hey, man." " Hey." "How ya doing?" "Working hard?" "Resentment, anger, bitterness-- they'll make you sick, like drinking poison and expecting someone else to die." "And the pain of feeling wronged, of feeling righteous is an addiction, twists you up, corrodes you inside." "An addiction" "an addiction you cannot break by yourself." "You have to turn to him." "Ask him to show you how because he will not leave you alone in the dark." "His compassion sounds loud, his Grace casts a blinding light and he will show you the way." "He is present always, everywhere, for in him we live and move and have our being." "Trust in him." "Surrender to him." "Ask him for help and he will respond." "Rush University Medical Center, may I help you?" "Yes, can you connect me with Dr. Harris in Neurology, please?" "One moment, please." "I'm sorry, but Dr. Harris no longer works at this hospital." "Ma'am?" "Yes, um," "I don't suppose she left a number where she can be reached?" "No, I'm sorry." "She didn't." "Thanks." "I thought we agreed to start things slowly-- phone calls, that kind of thing." "I wanted to see you." "You're pretty good up there." "Well, I'm trying to lighten it up a bit." " You're a natural." " Like my father." "Yeah." "What do you want, Dad?" "Lewy body." "Some kind of protein up here causes progressive decline-- mental, physical." "There is no cure." "I have it." "I'm sorry." "Me too." "Does Mom know?" "No." "No one knows." "Just you." "And that's-- that's why you've been calling, why you've been showing up." " I wanted to see you." " Why?" " I thought" " What?" "That I'd take care of you?" "Go with you on your doctor visits, sit by you in your hospital bed?" "I'm not that person." "You're not that person." "I'm sorry." "Did you-- did you ever think to come here just because you missed me?" "Maybe because you just wanted to see me?" " I did." "I do." " No." "The only thing you care about is you-- what you want, what you need." "I'm sorry, Dad." "It's too late." "There's nothing here." " Emma, wait." " What did you expect?" "Hello?" " Mr. Miller?" " Yeah, this is Miller." "Geo Labs." "I've got the results for the water sample you sent over." "It's nice of him to send you." "You must have known this would be the end." "Why did you do it?" "Sometimes a vote is just a vote." "Right, but you knew this would happen." "So what are you going to do now?" "I'm not sure-- go back to teaching." "Then again maybe not." "I don't know that I'm the one to inspire others towards a life in politics." "You inspired me." "It's funny." "I've spent a lot of time imagining the future, trying to envision how the end would come." "And when it does, it's got nothing to do with the people you're serving or what you had hoped you'd accomplish." "It's just politics." "I hope it'll be different for you." "Buy you a drink?" "Oh, no thanks." "It's been a long day." "Yeah." "Yeah, mine too." "You sure?" "Mike here makes a mean Martini." " Oh hey, what are you doing?" " Shut up." "Sit still." "Okay." "Let's go."
