All the President's Men Scene 3 Summary

  • In the Washington Post newsroom, two men talk about the details of the case.
  • Harry Rosenfeld, the editor, calls reporter Bob Woodward, informing him of the break-in at the Democratic headquarters.
  • Carl Bernstein walks in and tells the editor he has a source at the Watergate, but the editor tells him to focus on his own assignments.
  • Woodward goes to the court where the burglars are being arraigned.
  • Woodward sits behind an attorney named Markham and asks him if he's there in relation to the burglary.
  • Markham says, "I'm not here." That trick doesn't work when Jehovah's Witnesses come to the door, and it won't work now.
  • Woodward continues to ask questions, and Markham says he isn't the attorney in the question. That would be Mr. Starkey.
  • Woodward sidles over to question Starkey.
