They are reporting that your guys fired into the crowd and provoked the attack.
Let's not convict them just yet, okay?
You let me know the minute I can.

I'm working on a novel. I-I was gonna take the time to finish that.
Well, you can still write your novel. Everybody needs a day job. Chekhov was a doctor.
Tell me the truth. Is this you or is this her?
sternly This is us. We're a unit. You got that?
That's not protocol, ma'am.
You may have picked up on this: I'm not big on protocol.
Then that makes us two peas in a pod. May I call you Elizabeth?
No.
If it's any consolation, that's not how the President sees it. He thinks you saved his ass. Told me to tell you that.
Were you ? Going to tell me that ?
I hadn't decided.
It was a private email!
You really believe there's such a thing anymore?
There's thousands. Twittersphere is calling them the Viper cables.
Viper?
Fisher's source. She's claiming he's a State Department employee.
Oh, great. Our very own Snowden.
What happened to at least giving us a heads up?
Hey, Jay. Daisy's about to tell us that that gotcha video is blowing up on social media. Which was clearly the point. Right now, I need you to focus on fixing it.
Dubois's the tip of the iceberg. In another cable, an INR analyst referred to the Austrian ambassador as Das Boob. Several deputy assistant secretaries agreed in an e-mail chain that a member of the Peruvian Constitutional Tribunal is a coked-up, narcissist blowhard. Oh, and our ambassador to Kenya called their defense minister a sweaty, brain-damaged hippo.
Are we sure those cables aren't from a frat?
Already crafting your apologies ma'am. On a scale of non-apology-apology to full Swagger-Kanye, how far do you want to take it?
That's all we have for now.
Only 47 apologies? I was just getting warmed up. (chuckles) How'd I do?
No one's launched any missiles at us, yet.
Honey, Alison's 15. We can't be spying on her texts anymore. Can we?
Hey, was it really our fault that my iPad somehow tied in with her phone? And it's not like these were icky diary entries. They're stuff that she's sharing with her friends.
That's true.
We're great parents.
We are.
It's our responsibility to balance her privacy with her safety.
She's at a precarious age.
Fifteen.
We spy because we love.
Like the U.S. on France. (pauses as Elizabeth makes a face) Much, much too soon, right?
Remind me again why we had kids.
They were supposed to be cute.
(answers phone) Hello? ... It's the Russian Foreign Minister's office.
How'd they get our home number?
Russia.
You have another 23 apology calls to make this morning.
Good morning, Nadine.
Oh. You really want to start with that every morning?
I guess I'm old-fashioned that way.
Oh, come on Gina. Your source wouldn't be invited to sit in the Situation Room on a Saturday morning to watch cartoons.
He's Top Secret SCI.
She gave you that?
You Jedi mind-tricked her, didn't you ma'am?
