Toby and C.J. in “Lord John Marbury”

Toby

I was warned that coming to talk to you might be insulting to your professionalism.

C.J.

Well, you wouldn't want to do that.

Toby

I wasn't ready for the press yet.

C.J.

Could've told me that before sending me in there.

Toby

C.J.

C.J.

I flatly denied it. I said I was in the Oval Office ten minutes ago and nothing's going on.

Toby

They don't think you lied to them.

C.J.

I know that. They think you lied to me, which is what happened. They don't know me. I'm from nowhere. I was just starting to get credible. I was just starting to get their respect. You know how long it's going to take me to get it back?

Toby

There's a concern.

C.J.

Don't ask C.J.; she doesn't know anything.

Toby

There is a concern that you're too friendly with the press.

C.J.

Really.

Toby

We know it's important that you have a friendly relationship with them...

C.J.

It's important for all of us.

Toby

I don't disagree.

C.J.

Does this have to do with Danny Concannon?

Toby

People see you with Danny.

C.J.

This is outrageous.

Toby

This is one time, and if we erred, it's on the side of trying to...

C.J.

You sent me in there uninformed so that I'd lie to the press.

Toby

We sent you in there uninformed because we thought there was a chance you couldn't.
