00:00Reflections of the way life used to be
00:05Reflections of the love you took from me
00:10Oh, I'm all alone now
00:14Okay, people, let's get this meeting started.
00:19I have news, big news, huge news.
00:22Come on, Murphy, let's go, go, go!
00:24Save your breath, Miles, she's late.
00:26So come on, what's the big news?
00:27Okay, okay, but don't you tell her I told you first.
00:35Wait till she hears the interview I have lined up for her.
00:38She won't know how to thank me.
00:40A Tiffany Teichlip, a Mont Blanc pen set, or maybe just cash.
00:43Cash is good.
00:47Billy, well, Murphy, I've spent the last two, count them,
00:50two hours getting my Porsche fixed at Guten Tag Auto Shop,
00:54which apparently is some form of German
00:56for put the money in the bag,
00:57lie down and don't make a sound.
01:01Murphy, guess what?
01:02Why, you may ask,
01:03did I just spend an amount equivalent
01:05to Avery's first-year college tuition
01:07watching a guy named Dieter
01:08put in a new side window in my car?
01:10Because some lowlife smashed the old one last night
01:13and stole my stereo right in front of my house.
01:15Are you kidding?
01:16That's terrible.
01:16And if that wasn't bad enough,
01:17they took my favorite Al Green CD
01:19and two of Avery's Barney the Dinosaur tapes.
01:23Okay, so maybe it wasn't all bad,
01:25but the point is,
01:26where were the police?
01:28Even after I called them,
01:30it took them 47 minutes to arrive.
01:3247, you can get a pizza faster.
01:34Murphy, it's just unbelievable.
01:35Miss Brown, I'm David Sanders, your new secretary.
01:40It's great to be working with you.
01:41Good.
01:42Listen, I want you to type up this letter for me
01:44to the chief of police.
01:45Get me the mayor's office on the phone
01:47and fax a copy of this police report
01:49to my homeowner's association.
01:51Absolutely, Miss Brown.
01:51I'll go send that fax right now.
01:53No, maybe I should type the letter first
01:55and then fax.
01:57Wait, the phone call.
01:58Okay.
02:00Call, then fax, then type.
02:03Fax, then type, then call?
02:04Excuse me, have you worked as a secretary before?
02:07Oh, sure.
02:08Clinton administration, communications office.
02:13Well, I'll just go send that fax now.
02:15And maybe I should type the letter.
02:16No, no, the fax first, then call, then type.
02:19Type, call, fax.
02:26Well, I'll choose it.
02:27There's definitely a Republican on personnel.
02:30Miles, were you saying something?
02:31I got you an interview with Nick Brody.
02:34What?
02:35Who?
02:35What did you say?
02:36That's right.
02:37I got you an interview with Nick Brody.
02:40Miles, you're talking about Nick Brody,
02:42the author, 60s radical, total recluse,
02:44that Nick Brody?
02:45Who?
02:46Yep.
02:47So what do you think?
02:47Pretty exciting, isn't it?
02:49Yeah, exciting's not the word for it.
02:51I just can't help wondering,
02:52do you think he'll bring his good friends
02:53J.D. Salinger, Jimmy Hoffa, and Bigfoot?
02:56Nick Brody, don't play with me.
03:00Everybody knows Nick Brody
03:01hasn't written a word
03:02or given an interview in 25 years.
03:04Well, he's giving one now.
03:07He just finished a book
03:08and he's ready to talk.
03:09I have the confirmation letter
03:10from his publisher right here.
03:11Let me see that.
03:13He's just insisting on a couple of things.
03:15A minimum of publicity,
03:17no pre-interview,
03:18and a bottle of 30-year-old
03:19single malt scotch on the set.
03:21Who's Nick Brody?
03:24Just the voice of my generation,
03:26the man who wrote Technicolor Highway,
03:29a book that changed my life.
03:31Oh, I remember that book.
03:33I think it was banned
03:34from my junior high library.
03:36Long Catcher in the Rye,
03:37Scarlet Letter,
03:39Huckleberry Fan.
03:41And to think David Duke
03:42was a product of that school system.
03:45I wasn't kidding, Frank.
03:46This is incredible.
03:47Let me see.
03:47Technicolor Highway.
03:52You know, that book started me
03:53on a journey that in many ways
03:55I'm still on.
03:57Miles, this is the interview
03:58of a lifetime.
03:59I don't know what to say.
04:00Just doing my job, Murphy.
04:02You know me.
04:03A simple thank you
04:04is all I really...
04:05Oh, no.
04:06This is too big.
04:07Thank you is not enough.
04:09Here.
04:10I want you to have this.
04:13Murphy,
04:13I cannot accept this
04:16coupon for 10% off
04:18my next lube and oil change
04:19at Gutenberg.
04:22Just don't let Dieter do it.
04:23I think he drinks.
04:25Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
04:26Wait a second.
04:28This doesn't say anything
04:29about Murphy doing the interview.
04:31All it says
04:31is that he has agreed
04:32to do an interview with FYI.
04:34I mean, what is the deal here?
04:36Just because Murphy wants something
04:37means he has to get it?
04:38Where have you been
04:39the last 15 years?
04:41Well, I think we should discuss it.
04:43The interview should go
04:44out of a person
04:45who is most familiar
04:46with the subject.
04:47Well, he's got a point there, Miles.
04:49Of course that person
04:50would be me.
04:51I've got a first edition
04:52of his book.
04:52I bet you can't say that.
04:54So?
04:54I heard him read from it.
04:55I got his autograph.
04:56I met him.
04:57I shook his hand.
04:58I slept with him.
04:58You win.
04:59I hope I didn't hear
05:06what I just think I heard
05:07because if I did,
05:08I'm going to have
05:09to resign this interview.
05:10Yes!
05:10Oh, come on, Miles.
05:11It's not like Brody
05:12would even remember.
05:14I was an undergrad at Penn
05:15in charge of arranging speakers
05:16and he came to read
05:17from his book.
05:18It was just one night
05:19a long time ago.
05:21Things like that
05:22happened in the 60s.
05:23It was a very different time.
05:24Oh, sure.
05:25The 60s.
05:26As if that makes
05:27everything okay.
05:28No.
05:29I was around
05:30during the 60s
05:31and you didn't find me
05:32dropping my drawers
05:33every time somebody
05:34said Groovy.
05:37And I'll tell you
05:38where this is going, too.
05:39This is going to turn
05:40into one of those
05:40Where Were You
05:41the Weekend
05:41of Woodstock discussions.
05:43I'll tell you
05:44where I was.
05:45I was playing golf.
05:46Thank you very much.
05:48And let me tell you,
05:49every time someone yelled
05:51Give me an F,
05:51all it spelt was four.
05:53Now, Jim,
05:57maybe you're being
05:58a little hard on Murphy.
06:00I, for one,
06:01think it's fascinating
06:02what a colorful life
06:03she's led.
06:04Sure, it'll probably
06:05jam her to hell
06:06for all eternity.
06:08That doesn't make it
06:09any less interesting.
06:11Corky, it wasn't all
06:12sex, drugs,
06:13and rock and roll
06:13back then.
06:14We were trying
06:15to stop the war,
06:16end hunger,
06:17protect the earth.
06:18We were trying
06:19to change the world.
06:20Frank, tell them.
06:21It's true.
06:22I went to this
06:23big peace rally
06:24in Central Park.
06:25There must have been
06:26a hundred thousand
06:27people there,
06:28but it was almost
06:29like we were one.
06:30I'll tell you,
06:31we closed our eyes,
06:32we joined hands,
06:33and you could actually
06:35feel the love
06:36and harmony
06:36all around us.
06:37It was mind-blowing.
06:39You know,
06:41I was in hands
06:42across America.
06:44Yes, well,
06:45the point is,
06:46it was a simpler,
06:47more innocent time.
06:48You could meet someone,
06:50have a meaningful
06:50encounter,
06:51and then go
06:52your separate ways,
06:53enriched by the experience.
06:55That's all it was
06:55with Brody.
06:56He gave me
06:57the gift of his book,
06:58and I gave him
06:59a gift in return.
07:03Miles, you know
07:04I can do this interview.
07:05I am asking you
07:06as a professional
07:06and a friend,
07:07don't take it away
07:08from me.
07:09Well,
07:11I guess it does
07:12sound pretty harmless.
07:13I mean,
07:13it was a long time ago.
07:15No, not really, Miles,
07:16especially if you
07:17think about it
07:18in geological times
07:19like yesterday.
07:20But not everybody
07:21measures time
07:22between sexual encounters
07:23by continental drift.
07:26All right.
07:29You can do the interview.
07:30Yes!
07:30Oh, this is so great.
07:33Mick Brody,
07:33it's like 1968
07:34all over again.
07:36I think I'll go
07:37put on a little
07:37sly in the family stone
07:39just to get in the mood.
07:40To celebrate
07:44our 20th...
07:45Okay, Avery,
07:46I might as well
07:47get this over with.
07:48There are some things
07:49your mother did
07:50in the 60s
07:51that might,
07:52well, surprise you,
07:54and since you'll
07:54probably find out
07:55about them anyway,
07:56I'd rather you
07:57hear it from me.
08:01Yes,
08:02your mother did
08:03wear stuff like this.
08:06Oh, wow.
08:08Look at this.
08:08my bandana.
08:10I wore this
08:11at the demonstrations
08:12in Chicago in 68.
08:15You see that spot
08:16right there?
08:17That is where
08:18Abby Hoffman himself
08:19used it to wipe
08:20the tear gas
08:21from his eyes.
08:22I was gonna will it
08:23to the Smithsonian
08:24along with my frisbee
08:25that glanced off
08:26Janis Joplin's forehead,
08:27but now,
08:28oh, this will be
08:29yours someday.
08:32Look at that.
08:36Ah.
08:37Here it is.
08:38Technicolor Highway
08:41by Nick Brody.
08:44You know, Avery,
08:45a lot of what I am
08:46today came out
08:47of this book.
08:48It's about doing
08:49what you believe in,
08:51even if it means
08:52being different.
08:53Excuse me
08:54for interrupting,
08:54you know, Avery.
08:55But then...
08:55But then...
08:56Look at this.
08:57A Pegasus,
08:58the pig for
08:58President Button.
09:00We were trying
09:00to get a pig
09:01on the ballot.
09:02What a statement.
09:06You know,
09:07I feel that it's
09:08my duty
09:09to point out
09:09for the benefit
09:10of Avery's
09:11young,
09:11impressionable mind
09:12that the 60s
09:14were not all
09:15they were cracked up
09:16to be.
09:16To wit,
09:18it was definitely
09:19not a great decade
09:20for art.
09:21Alvin,
09:22you've got to be
09:22kidding me.
09:23A lot of great art
09:24came out of the 60s.
09:26It was a time
09:27of free expression.
09:28There were no rules,
09:29no restrictions.
09:30That's my point exactly.
09:32It was a time
09:33when anybody
09:33with bell bottoms,
09:34a blowtorch,
09:35and access
09:36to a landfill
09:37could call themselves
09:38an artist.
09:39Well,
09:40let's not take
09:41my word for it.
09:42Let's ask
09:43an impartial observer.
09:46Avery,
09:47you tell me,
09:49art
09:50or lunch?
09:53I'm voting lunch
09:55because I believe
09:56when they said
09:57that art
09:57should nourish you
09:58that they didn't mean
10:00next to a grilled
10:00cheese sandwich
10:01in a bag
10:02of potato chips.
10:03Alvin,
10:03you never fail
10:04to surprise me.
10:0660s art represented
10:07change,
10:08experimentation,
10:08the questioning
10:09of authority.
10:10I would have thought
10:10you'd love that.
10:11And at first I did,
10:12but at a certain point
10:13one has to say,
10:14whoa, okay,
10:15hey, we've gone too far.
10:16For me,
10:17that was when
10:18my friend Dave
10:18glued a wad
10:20of dental floss
10:21to a canvas,
10:22called it
10:22food for thought,
10:24sold it for $600.
10:26You know, Alvin,
10:28I think it's time
10:29for a dose
10:29of Nick Brody.
10:30I'd hate to think
10:31of your becoming
10:32a conformist.
10:32I'm arguing taste
10:40with someone
10:40who once wore this.
10:44I'm 60 seconds
10:46to the happening,
10:46people.
10:47Hey, Miles,
10:48far out idea
10:49doing a whole show
10:49devoted to the 60s.
10:51I dig it.
10:52And I dig you, man.
10:55It's just wonderful,
10:56John.
10:57And if Nick Brody
10:58doesn't show up,
10:58you could dig me a grave.
11:00He was supposed
11:00to be here hours ago.
11:02This whole Brody's back
11:03and we've got a mad campaign
11:04is about to blow up
11:05in my face.
11:06You just don't get it,
11:07do you, Miles?
11:08This is just Brody.
11:10Functuality is so
11:11establishment.
11:12Have a little faith.
11:13I've got a very good feeling
11:15about this interview.
11:16Oh, that's just
11:16bitching, Murphy.
11:17Right on.
11:19You don't want
11:20to shoot this puppy.
11:21I'm double parked.
11:23Nick Brody.
11:28You know,
11:28you don't know
11:30what this means to me.
11:32This is just
11:33so totally...
11:34Oh, wow.
11:36Nick Brody,
11:37you're back
11:37and we've got you.
11:38I didn't think
11:39you were going to show up.
11:40What's the big deal?
11:40You don't go on the air
11:41until 9 o'clock, right?
11:4215 seconds.
11:43Where's my scotch?
11:45Mr. Brody,
11:46this is certainly an honor.
11:47I'm Murphy Brown.
11:48Shoot, I know you.
11:50I'm very flattered.
11:52When you say you know me,
11:53would that be from FYI or...
11:55All right, going live.
11:57Here we go in five,
11:59four,
12:01three,
12:02two...
12:04Good evening
12:05and welcome to FYI.
12:07For your information tonight,
12:08a special report,
12:10the 60th decade
12:11of turbulence,
12:12decade of change.
12:14In a very special segment,
12:15Murphy Brown
12:16has a rare conversation
12:17with legendary author
12:19Nick Brody,
12:20returning to the public eye
12:21after nearly quarter century
12:23of self-imposed exile.
12:24Murphy?
12:25Thank you, Jim.
12:26My guest tonight
12:27is as synonymous
12:28with the 60s
12:29as flower power
12:30and peace signs.
12:32His novel,
12:33Technicolor Highway,
12:34became a manifesto
12:35for individuality
12:36and an important catalyst
12:38for social change.
12:39His new book,
12:40Warning Signs,
12:41will be published this fall.
12:43Mr. Brody, welcome.
12:45Oh, no, no, please.
12:46Mister is a Madison Avenue term
12:48for coffee makers
12:49and peanuts.
12:49Just call me Nick.
12:50All right.
12:55Nick, I think the question
12:57on everyone's minds
12:58has to be,
13:00where has Nick Brody
13:01been all these years?
13:02Hell, if I know,
13:02the last thing I remember,
13:03I was on my way
13:04to a party
13:05at Timothy Leary's house.
13:15Seriously, though,
13:16you have to admit,
13:17it has been
13:17a pretty long silence.
13:18Well, it's simple.
13:19I didn't have anything
13:20to say until now.
13:22And why now?
13:23Well, just look around.
13:24We are rapidly approaching
13:25a social and cultural low point
13:28in the history of mankind
13:29and nobody's paying
13:30any attention.
13:31Which leads to the title
13:32of your new book,
13:33Warning Signs.
13:34Exactly.
13:34See, this country
13:35was showing some real promise
13:37and then suddenly
13:38we made a dangerous
13:39turn off course.
13:40And I'll tell you
13:41the exact date.
13:42November the 4th, 1980,
13:44the date Reagan
13:45was elected president.
13:46Oh!
13:48Millions.
13:50Absolutely.
13:51And let's face it,
13:52it's been all downhill
13:52ever since.
13:53And the reason
13:54should be obvious
13:55to anyone
13:56with half a brain.
13:57And that is?
13:59Reagan didn't live up
14:00to the promise
14:01of his campaign.
14:02The man totally sold out
14:04the entire
14:05conservative movement.
14:11Ronald Reagan?
14:11eight years of lying down
14:16and rolling over
14:16to Congress
14:17on supply-side economics,
14:19the Sandinistas,
14:20Star Wars.
14:21Why the hell
14:22didn't we just
14:23nuke Iran?
14:25And then we wind up
14:26with that liberal wimp
14:28in Republican clothing,
14:29George Bush.
14:30Uh, excuse me,
14:39it's just that, um,
14:41it seems like a rather
14:42strange perspective
14:43coming from the man
14:44who wrote
14:45Technicolor Highway.
14:46Oh, God,
14:47am I ever gonna
14:48live that down?
14:50The ramblings
14:51of a snot-nosed kid
14:53who had no idea
14:54what life was really like
14:56in the real world.
14:57Trust me,
14:57flashing the peace sign
14:59won't do much
15:00against a guy
15:00with a gun
15:01at the ATM.
15:04Shirley,
15:05you're not suggesting
15:06that your book,
15:07a book that was admired
15:08by millions,
15:09is completely worthless.
15:10No, no,
15:11I wouldn't say that.
15:12It did make me
15:13a truckload of money,
15:14and, you know,
15:15as far as the ladies
15:16are concerned,
15:16well, let's just say
15:17it put a lot of waves
15:18in my waterbed.
15:25You know,
15:25it's funny,
15:26but I really
15:27can't look
15:28at a woman
15:28in her 40s
15:29these days
15:30without wondering
15:30if I,
15:31you know,
15:31a woman.
15:43Um,
15:44what about
15:45the values
15:46of the 60s?
15:47Working for peace,
15:49questioning of authority,
15:50ideas which you
15:51and your book
15:52inspired.
15:53They're all crap.
15:54They have gutted
15:57this country
15:58and given us
15:58a generation
15:59of bleeding-heart liberals,
16:00and look who winds up
16:01in the White House,
16:02some clown
16:03who can't even decide
16:04if he inhaled.
16:07Um,
16:08shouldn't we be judging
16:10his performance
16:10in office?
16:11I am.
16:12You should see
16:12what his budget's done
16:13to my defense industry stocks,
16:15as if we've got
16:16a defense anymore.
16:17I mean,
16:17this whole business
16:18with fairies
16:19in the military.
16:20Give me a break.
16:21Sure,
16:22I sleep safer at night
16:23knowing some centuries
16:24wandering around
16:25out there
16:25with an M-16
16:26in spiked heels.
16:29And then what about
16:30this whole healthcare mess?
16:32I mean,
16:32who elected
16:33this guy's wife
16:34anything?
16:35People keep expecting
16:37the government
16:37to solve all...
16:38The word
16:42just kept coming
16:43out of his mouth,
16:44and I couldn't stop thinking
16:46this is not happening,
16:47but I knew
16:48it was happening.
16:49And then I realized
16:50this is it.
16:51This is absolutely
16:53the worst interview
16:54of my entire life,
16:55and I have had
16:55a guy die on me, Frank.
16:57Oh.
16:58Murph,
16:58now,
16:59you know,
16:59I don't think
17:00it was quite as bad
17:01as you think.
17:02I mean,
17:03maybe we just
17:03misunderstood him
17:04when he said
17:05all those baby seals
17:06got exactly
17:06what they deserved.
17:08If it's any consolation,
17:09Slugger,
17:09you handle the whole thing
17:10like a pro.
17:11Thanks.
17:12With the possible
17:13exception of that moment
17:13when he called
17:14Pat Buchanan
17:15the most enlightened
17:15public figure
17:16since Moses.
17:18Now,
17:19Murphy,
17:20don't be too upset.
17:22At least he remembered
17:23the night you two
17:23spent together.
17:25Oh,
17:26God,
17:26you asked him
17:27about that?
17:28I had to.
17:29I wanted him
17:30to know
17:30the person
17:31he humiliated
17:32up there
17:32was someone
17:33he'd once,
17:33you know.
17:38Oh,
17:39geez,
17:40what did he say?
17:41Well,
17:42I believe
17:42his exact words
17:43were,
17:44that was her.
17:45I always thought
17:46the blonde from Penn
17:47was Diane Sawyer.
17:52Great show tonight,
17:53people.
17:54Phil,
17:55drinks are on me.
17:56Dynamite interview
17:57Murphy.
17:58Okay.
18:00I know it didn't turn out
18:01exactly like you thought,
18:02but you gotta admit,
18:03it was great television.
18:05I'm thinking maybe
18:05we should do a lot more
18:06of these retrospectives.
18:07Oh,
18:08great idea,
18:08Miles.
18:09Maybe next time
18:10I can bake
18:10Rice Krispie Treats
18:11with the weather
18:12underground.
18:14I'm lost again.
18:17Forget it,
18:17Murph.
18:18They are too young
18:19to understand.
18:19To them,
18:20the 60s
18:20is a collection
18:21of tunes
18:21you can get
18:22from Cade Telfer
18:22in $9.98.
18:26I just don't get it.
18:27Okay,
18:27I understand
18:28that living alone
18:29in the mountains
18:30for all those years,
18:30someone could go
18:31a little wacko,
18:32but this is Nick Brody.
18:34What happened to him?
18:35Same thing
18:35that happens
18:36to everybody.
18:37He got older.
18:38People get more
18:39conservative
18:39when they get older.
18:41Back in college,
18:42my friends and I
18:43used to do
18:44some pretty wild
18:44and crazy things.
18:46In fact,
18:46I used to be known
18:47as Miles the Mooner
18:48Silverberg.
18:51Then just the other day,
18:52I caught myself
18:53yelling at some kids
18:54to turn their music down.
18:55Me?
18:56The old Mooner himself?
18:58Let me just
18:59get this straight,
19:00Miles.
19:00Are you actually
19:01comparing the
19:02dynamic upheaval
19:03and social unrest
19:04of the 60s
19:05to your scrawny
19:06white butt?
19:09They just
19:10don't get it,
19:11do they, Frank?
19:12They don't understand
19:13that when you're
19:13a child of the 60s
19:14like us,
19:15you don't trade
19:16in your values
19:16just because you've
19:17gotten a few
19:18more wrinkles.
19:26Sometimes I think
19:27people on welfare
19:28should try harder
19:29to get a job.
19:29Oh, Grant,
19:34I can't believe
19:35you said that.
19:36Look, not everybody,
19:37just a lot of them.
19:41Well, I am sorry,
19:42but you know,
19:43if I was getting
19:43a check every week,
19:44I don't know how hard
19:45I'd try to find work.
19:47I can't believe this.
19:48First Brody
19:49and now you?
19:50Well, excuse me,
19:51but weren't you
19:51the one yelling
19:52for more police
19:53on your street?
19:54More pigs?
19:55That's not a very
19:5660s attitude now,
19:57is it?
19:57Whoa, time out.
19:58I have a kid
19:59to think about now,
20:00you know.
20:00I'm not just worried
20:01about my car.
20:02Oh, yeah,
20:02and what kind of car
20:03is that?
20:04A Porsche?
20:05Whatever happened
20:06to the VW Microbus,
20:08you know,
20:08the one that had
20:09the Eat the Rich
20:09bumper sticker?
20:10Hey, just because
20:11I couldn't afford
20:12to drive a nice car
20:13doesn't mean
20:13I've gotten
20:14more conservative.
20:15Okay, fine.
20:15Let's talk about money.
20:16Can you honestly say
20:17that the new tax increase
20:18on upper-income groups
20:19hasn't made you
20:20at least think?
20:21Ouch.
20:22I know I have.
20:23I have.
20:23Me too.
20:24Well, I haven't.
20:26Have you looked
20:26at the deficit figures lately?
20:28And even though
20:28I'm taking a hit,
20:29I think it's important
20:30that those of us
20:31who can afford it
20:31pay more.
20:32It's only right.
20:33Okay, fine.
20:34You win.
20:35You're the only one
20:35who hasn't changed.
20:36Murphy Brown,
20:37still the same
20:3860s liberal
20:39she always was.
20:40put Avery on a list
20:46for private school.
20:51Oh, God, it's true,
20:52isn't it?
20:52I have changed.
20:55How did this happen?
20:57One minute,
20:57you're 19,
20:58standing arm-in-arm
20:59in the field
21:00with the farm workers,
21:02and the next thing
21:02you know,
21:03you're at 7-Eleven
21:04trying to buy
21:05jumbo pampers
21:06and wondering
21:06why everybody
21:07can't just speak English.
21:12What about
21:13the death penalty?
21:14Tell me you haven't
21:15read the paper lately
21:16and thought
21:16maybe it's not
21:17such a bad idea.
21:18Oh.
21:20Just the other day,
21:21I thought about
21:21buying a handgun.
21:22Corky?
21:23I didn't,
21:25but I thought about it.
21:26Then I decided
21:27I'd just keep
21:27the shotgun.
21:31It was a housewarming
21:33gift for my daddy
21:34when I moved
21:34to Washington.
21:36How much
21:36of a liberal press
21:38we're as bad
21:38as Brody?
21:40Dude, as priest,
21:41I've never heard
21:41so much hand-wringing
21:43in all my life.
21:45I didn't agree
21:45with Brody
21:46back in the 60s,
21:47and I don't agree
21:47with him now.
21:48All this changing,
21:50back and forth,
21:51left and right,
21:52just like driving.
21:53You start out
21:54in the right lane,
21:56but after a while
21:56it seems too slow,
21:57so you zoom over
21:58to the left lane.
21:59Then that seems too fast,
22:00so you zoom back
22:01to the right lane.
22:02All the while
22:02careening back and forth,
22:05cutting off those of us
22:06contentedly driving
22:07along in the center lane,
22:09forcing us to slam
22:10on our brakes,
22:10and nearly hurling us
22:11and our loved ones
22:12with a windshield.
22:14Well, I say stop off
22:16at the next Stucky's,
22:17have a cup of Senka,
22:18and settle down.
22:22I don't know, Jim,
22:25maybe that's the problem.
22:26Maybe we've all
22:27settled down a bit
22:28too much.
22:32Does anybody here
22:33think Nixon might have
22:34gotten a raw deal?
22:35Oh, no.
22:37Okay, at least
22:38he's still got that.
22:39Yes.
22:40Yes.
22:42Okay, we don't need
22:43this anymore.
22:45We don't need these guys.
22:47We don't, well,
22:47you'll want that.
22:48We don't need this,
22:50this, sure.
22:52A pig for president.
22:54Oh, yeah,
22:54we know what we were doing.
22:56And we certainly
22:58don't need this.
23:02We were going to
23:03change the world, Avery.
23:05We were really going
23:07to make a difference.
23:10I guess we got lost
23:11somewhere along the way.
23:13I wish I could tell you
23:16that you and your generation
23:18will have better luck
23:19and take it from me.
23:22You can't change the world.
23:26I can't believe
23:27I just said that.
23:29You can't change the world.
23:32I heard that
23:32from every parent,
23:34every teacher,
23:35every authority figure.
23:37I hated hearing that.
23:38Now, here I am
23:42saying it to you.
23:45You're not even
23:46too little.
23:58Technicolor Highway
23:59by Nick Brody.
24:08I was born
24:11in the cool shadow
24:12of a roadside diner
24:14by the side
24:15of a weathered
24:16old highway
24:17that stretched out
24:19forever
24:19to the bottom
24:21of the sky
24:22and beyond.
24:26Let the sunshine
