Murphy Brown (1988–2018): Season 2, Episode 9 - Roasted - full transcript
well it had to be back in 1952 as I
remember I was at Washington National
Airport we were waiting for MacArthur to
return from Korea and suddenly I felt
someone tapping me on the shoulder and
it was this tall gangly young kid and he
said Walter Cronkite
I'm Jim dial is there any advice you
could give a struggling young reporter I
I told him he was too skinny for TV with
that voice he just might have a career
in radio I didn't see him again until
the Democratic convention in 56 all the
network hotshots of course were
leapfrogging all over each other trying
to get the big story but it was Jim dial
who got the first live interview with
Jack Kennedy after he lost the vice
presidential nomination this time I
introduced myself to him but perhaps my
my most vivid memory goes back to the
night man first landed on the moon I was
so full of emotion I could hear my voice
start to waver
all I could think was if I lose it now
taya will never let me hear the end of
it and that's the way it was
the Redskins here their whole offensive
scheme is too conservative for Oh God
another one I can't take it anymore
Frank I just can't take it
look at him why he's an axe murderer I
know you're being ridiculous
mirtha that looks perfectly normal but
if you want me to check it out please

merged in a secretary I just thought I'd
introduce myself Frank Fontana
oh hi Kenneth Herman I just want to say

dinner tonight we've been friends so
long I I think you sense my need for a
safe place where I could finally open up
gee Jim I I know there was something
going on and now that I know exactly
what it is
I think the Oak Room here isn't the
right place for us to be what well for
one thing it's not really oak it needs
to be oak but then after the fire they
redid it with pine ain't you Michael
oh sure they did a nice job nobody
really knows the difference but do we
really want to pay $4 for cheesecake in
a place called the Oak Room that let's
just say it has no Oh

confirming our Lavigne Irving R Levine
my oldest friend I were to kill you
worthy are you gonna do bore me to death
fuckin shame you can all go to hell
I can't
I'd forgotten how beautiful the Lincoln
Memorial looked at night yes and very
peaceful at the dark quiet
and daylight breaks and tourists start
running up and down the steps taking
cameras dropping litter styrofoam cups
cigarette box a little foil ends of
lifesaver rolls that Brown licorice that
people buy because they think they're
going to like it but they don't so they
throw it on the ground how did you know
I come here he told me once it kills
remember it was the night we all got
together to celebrate the end of disco
he said you like to come here at the
feet of the great man and reflect on the
poetry and power of his words it was
after we drank the tequila shooters and
before we sang the Bill of Rights
you mind if I sit down if you like
Jessica
so it must be pretty mad at me huh you
know
unless it looked like an old fool up
there tonight you kidding you were a hit
there's talk of um seeing Mike Wallace's
roast you know Jim
asking people about their problems is in
my strong suit
I'm not much for talking about mine Jim
what do you think these tips are 40
degrees
it started a couple of months ago a
strange tightening in the chest and
shortness of breath then last week I
woke up in the middle of the night my
heart pounding so badly I had to ask
Doris to drive me to the doctor and good
news I wasn't having a heart attack
there's nothing physically wrong with me
I'm just going nuts isn't that a relief
I'm at the top of my profession I've
seen Wars dined with kings married
presidents I have friends who respect me
and a wife who loves me it seems like I
have it all doesn't it always seemed
that way to me Murphy it feels like all
the best years are behind me my passion
has been replaced by an anemic pride
that comes with a job well done on the
pat on the shoulder and gold watch
Murphy I want my passion back and get it
back Jim do something new find a hobby
like I'm no good with tools and I hate
to fish then travel write a book we've
been everywhere I tried writing jeez Jim
paint pictures of Elvis on velvet I said
I was no good at this okay we don't have
the answer now but we'll work on it
we'll get it I mean I've got a lot
riding on this you know you may not have
noticed but I know as you know anymore
my up-and-comer days are behind me so if
you're gonna tell me life ends at 50
then I'm gonna leave here go over a
sales order a double scotch and
chain-smoke because there's no point in
trying anymore if you don't believe that
life gets better do you get what I'm
saying Jim don't give up keep looking
for the passion just go for it oh god
did I say that I think that expression I
don't I've never used those three words
together new years 1979
well it's like I better get home grab a
couple hours of sleep come on I'll walk
you to your car
oh my the reflecting pool is certainly
beautiful it's like a mirror as if you
could walk on it you know I've often
wondered what it would feel like to go
wading in a reflecting pool but no not
Jim dial people would stare what would
they think what would they think Murphy
that you'd gone nuts or that you were
just feeling a little passionate about
water
but when it was retinic Iran no fair
remember I was at Washington National
Airport we were waiting for MacArthur to
return from Korea and suddenly I felt
someone tapping me on the shoulder and
it was this tall gangly young kid and he
said Walter Cronkite
I'm Jim dial is there any advice you
could give a struggling young reporter I
I told him he was too skinny for TV with
that voice he just might have a career
in radio I didn't see him again until
the Democratic convention in 56 all the
network hotshots of course were
leapfrogging all over each other trying
to get the big story but it was Jim dial
who got the first live interview with
Jack Kennedy after he lost the vice
presidential nomination this time I
introduced myself to him but perhaps my
my most vivid memory goes back to the
night man first landed on the moon I was
so full of emotion I could hear my voice
start to waver
all I could think was if I lose it now
taya will never let me hear the end of
it and that's the way it was
the Redskins here their whole offensive
scheme is too conservative for Oh God

Doris to drive me to the doctor and good
news I wasn't having a heart attack
there's nothing physically wrong with me
I'm just going nuts isn't that a relief
I'm at the top of my profession I've
seen Wars dined with kings married
presidents I have friends who respect me
and a wife who loves me it seems like I
have it all doesn't it always seemed
that way to me Murphy it feels like all
the best years are behind me my passion
has been replaced by an anemic pride
that comes with a job well done on the
pat on the shoulder and gold watch
Murphy I want my passion back and get it
back Jim do something new find a hobby
like I'm no good with tools and I hate
to fish then travel write a book we've
been everywhere I tried writing jeez Jim
paint pictures of Elvis on velvet I said
I was no good at this okay we don't have
the answer now but we'll work on it
we'll get it I mean I've got a lot
riding on this you know you may not have
noticed but I know as you know anymore
my up-and-comer days are behind me so if
you're gonna tell me life ends at 50
then I'm gonna leave here go over a
sales order a double scotch and
chain-smoke because there's no point in
trying anymore if you don't believe that
life gets better do you get what I'm
saying Jim don't give up keep looking
for the passion just go for it oh god
did I say that I think that expression I
don't I've never used those three words
together new years 1979
well it's like I better get home grab a
couple hours of sleep come on I'll walk
you to your car
oh my the reflecting pool is certainly
beautiful it's like a mirror as if you
could walk on it you know I've often
wondered what it would feel like to go
wading in a reflecting pool but no not
Jim dial people would stare what would
they think what would they think Murphy
that you'd gone nuts or that you were
just feeling a little passionate about
water
but when it was retinic Iran no fair
