Weiner Page #11

Why have you let me film this?

- I, Bill de Blasio...

- I, Bill de Blasio...

- do solemnly swear...

- do solemnly swear...

- that I will support the constitution

of the state of New York...

- that I will support the constitution

of the state of New York...

- and the charter

of the city of New York.

- and the charter

of the city of New York.

- That I will

faithfully discharge...

- That I will

faithfully discharge...

- the duties of the office

of the mayor of the city of New York.

- the duties of the office

of the mayor of the city of New York.

- So help me God.

- So help me God.

The scandal has been reduced

ad absurdum.

The laws of entertainment

gravity are gonna suck the..

...the documentary

into the same vortex.

What do you mean?

The same things

that people want and

were intrigued by

and fascinated by

and titillated by, it's

as much as you may want

to tell a story

it's still gonna be

the same frame

of the same..

...thing, but...

I don't know,

I don't... I don't regret

letting you follow me around

and kinda

documenting some of it.

Um..

...I guess 'cause

I just think that it...

I mean, I would hope

that it's more

than just a punch line

kind of thing.

I wanted just to viewed

as the... as the full person

that I was.

And I can't believe my entire..

...everything is being engulfed

by this... by this thing.

And maybe that's what happens.

You know, I mean..

...It's kind of like, you know,

besides that Mrs. Lincoln

that was the show.

You know, maybe,

that was naive too.

You know there's a tendency,

and we do it for a living

guys like us,

to try to figure out

like what the meta viewpoint

we're all supposed

to have of this.

So hold on a sec,

hold on a second.

Hold on a second.

Hold on a second.

Hold on. The only... the only

point I'm making, Herman

I'm trying

to make a nuanced point

about a complicated situation

that you and your party

are trying to over simplify

by saying the President

is doing nothing.

- Nothing.

- 1600...

The next generation

of politicians act differently

because their entire lives

will be documented

on some sort of online platform.

I think that's already, I think

we all... I mean, after...

- Oh, look at the time.

I gotta get going.

- Oh my...

- Hey, buddy.

Oh, my God.

Hey, can I get a picture

with you?

Sure, let me just finish

with this guy.

Head this way.

That's it.

Hold it right there. Good.

Mom, mom, mom

guess who I am standing

in front of?

Anthony Weiner,

right across from my school.

Mom, I'm... Mom, you're right.

Yeah, I want to see your Wikipedia.

Please don't. I would

encourage you not to, actually.

What?

What is that supposed to mean?

The written word is dead.

- Oh, my God.

- You got it, champ?

- Yeah. Oh, my God.

- Very nice to meet you.

Okay. Oh, my God!
