ALEC BALDWIN

Gary can't help but smile.

ALEC BALDWIN (CONT'D)
But unfortunately, he ended up being shot for raping some babies.

This is where Alec Baldwin gets a good look a: Gary's watch. It very clearly has a Team America Logo on it. Baldwin tries to act like he didn't notice.

ALEC BALDWIN (CONT'D)
Sometimes we can do the WRONG thin ~s for the RIGHT reas o ns, Mr. Paa ?aa. And then it takes a very strong man to step forward, tell the truth and make things right.

A super power will never be liked ty everyone, Baldwin. If we believe :n who are we, or even who we WANT to become, then we DO have to be w1ll:ng to fight for it. Because no matter how PEACEFUL we try to be, there will ALWAYSbe others who want only blood.

People in the crowd leak at cne another and 300:a~i for 3ary's fine acting.
