00:13:30where he doesn't realize that society
00:13:32isn't measured by the people who lead it
00:13:33but by the people it refuses to leave behind
00:13:40what was that thing you just said?
00:13:44uh

00:29:37to know the truth
00:29:39you're right
00:29:40I'm sorry
00:29:48one criticism
00:29:49is that you're all

00:29:52that you offer
00:29:53no real solutions
00:29:54to the issues
00:29:55well
00:29:56take small business
00:29:57for example
00:29:57I proposed
00:29:59we raise workers wages
00:30:00which places
00:30:02a financial burden
00:30:03on small businesses
00:30:04right
00:30:04how can anyone
00:30:06benefit
00:30:06if they can't afford
00:30:07to keep the business running
00:30:08yes
00:30:13you'll have to excuse me
00:30:14I'm
00:30:15having a little trouble
00:30:16articulating at the moment
00:30:17isn't it a public servant's job
00:30:19to articulate things
00:30:20to the public
00:30:24he's been totally unfocused
00:30:25since that waitress
00:30:26advisor left
00:30:27he's stressed
00:30:29he's been focusing
00:30:30so much on the campaign
00:30:32he could use
00:30:33a little
00:30:34feminine comfort
00:30:35I wish
00:30:37that that would be
00:30:38my dream
00:30:39I've wanted
00:30:40Owen for years
00:30:41well now's the time

00:30:52maybe we go
00:30:53get a drink
00:30:54talk
00:30:56strategy

00:39:24really had time
00:39:24to go
00:39:24I admit
00:39:25I was surprised
00:39:25to learn
00:39:26Tom was behind
00:39:27it
00:39:27he's a model
00:39:28student
00:39:29but
00:39:30now I understand
00:39:32children
00:39:33often act out
00:39:34when they are
00:39:35neglected
00:39:36neglected
00:39:38I would never
00:39:39neglect
00:39:40Tom
00:39:41and he didn't
00:39:42act out
00:39:42he was framed
00:39:43oh well
00:39:43if you know
00:39:44the perpetrator
00:39:45I'd love to know
00:39:46she'll never
00:39:47believe Eleanor
00:39:48did it
00:39:48not without
00:39:49any proof
00:39:49and then Tom
00:39:50would get thrown out
00:39:51I know Tom
00:39:52like the back
00:39:53of my hand
00:39:54he would never
00:39:55act out like this
00:39:56the evidence
00:39:57says otherwise
00:39:59and
00:39:59as the parent
00:40:01it is
00:40:02your responsibility
00:40:03to pay

00:40:1615 laptops

00:40:18three windows
00:40:19the only reason
00:40:20he did not
00:40:21get expelled
00:40:22is because
00:40:23Eleanor Carter
00:40:24spoke on his behalf

00:40:26who did this
00:40:27in the first place
