      Adlai Stevenson: [clears throat] There, uh, there is a third option. With either course we undertake the risk of nuclear war, so it seems to me that maybe one of us in this room should be a coward... so, I guess I'll be. A third course is to strike a deal: We trade Guantanamo and our missiles in Turkey; get them to pull their missiles out. We employ a back channel; we attribute the idea to U Thant. U Thant then raises it at the UN.

      President Kennedy: I don't think that's possible, Adlai.

    • Kenny O'Donnell: I need a minute.

      President Kennedy: Kenny, no.

      Kenny O'Donnell: A minute.

      [they enter the Oval Office]

      President Kennedy: Look, I don't want a god-damn pep talk; you're not the Harvard quarterback anymore. We're on the brink here! They're trying to second-guess me into World War III - well it's not gonna happen!

      Kenny O'Donnell: What did you think Congress was gonna do?

      President Kennedy: Well, I, you know...

      Kenny O'Donnell: Offer you unconditional support? Kiss your Catholic ass? They don't think we even deserve to be here.

      President Kennedy: Well, what the hell do you think?

      Kenny O'Donnell: Well, I think we haven't been that impressive today; they have good reason to question our judgment.
