[At the Los Angeles Medical Center, Kristine Walsh chances upon a well-known doctor, Dr. Corley Walker, while preparing news coverage of John's announcement]
Dr. Walker! Excuse me. Dr. Walker. [offers hand for handshake] Kristine Walsh. We met in Palm Springs, Gerald Ford's? I've been such an admirer of yours, I wanted to -
I remember you, Ms. Walsh. You were a newswoman.
[taken aback] Well, I'm still a newswoman.
[shaking his head] No, Ms. Walsh, I know what you are, but you're certainly not a newswoman. At best, a press secretary; at worst, a collaborator.
[stunned at reaction] I don't know what you've been told, Dr. Walker, but I'm just doing my job.
[contemptuous] Familiar words. I wonder how many times that phrase was used at the Nuremberg Trials.
[offended] That is insulting and untrue-
Ms. Walsh, I'll tell you what is untrue. It is untrue that you're still a newswoman. It is untrue that you're working for a benevolent regime. It is untrue that you're an impartial journalist. What's true is that fascists have taken over our planet, and you're their minister of propaganda. You're a discredit to your profession. You've allowed personal ambition to corrupt your integrity, and you no longer have credibility. Good day. [turns on his heel and walks away, passing Steven and Diana nearby, implying they witnessed the exchange.]
