- On a small TV in the newsroom, Nixon takes the oath of office.
- Everyone watches, except for Woodward and Bernstein, who type furiously at their desks.
- The final words are Nixon's: "So help me, God." At least he didn't try "sock it to me" again.
- However, the wire shows us a quick succession of headlines.
- Basically everyone Woodward and Bernstein suspected was behind the cover-up was actually behind the cover-up.
- They're all found guilty.
- And finally, Nixon resigns.
- Our boys were right all along.
