[0:07] NBC Nightly News reporting from New
[0:09] York. Jessica Savage.
[0:13] >> Good evening. George Schultz is home.
[0:15] He's met with President Reagan. He's
[0:17] expected to be quickly confirmed by the
[0:18] Senate as the new Secretary of State.
[0:21] Meanwhile, there is furious speculation
[0:22] both here and abroad as to what led to
[0:24] the resignation yesterday by Alexander
[0:27] Heg. We have two reports beginning with
[0:29] correspondent John Cochran who started
[0:31] his day with George Schultz in London.
[0:35] >> George Schultz and his wife now travel
[0:37] with a full compliment of security
[0:38] guards. They've always traveled in
[0:40] style. Schultz could afford the $2,000
[0:43] tickets on the Concord, even if the US
[0:45] government were not picking up the tab.
[0:47] What Schultz was not doing was talking.
[0:49] >> Washington.
[0:50] >> Are you going to have a press conference
[0:51] in Washington?
[0:52] >> No. Schultz is experienced in the ways
[0:55] of Washington and he knows that the
[0:56] Senate Foreign Relations Committee
[0:58] expects him to save his opinions on
[0:59] foreign policy until his confirmation
[1:01] hearings. During the flight, Schultz
[1:03] kept a stoic silence even when a fellow
[1:05] traveler, the prime minister of Jamaica,
[1:08] asked him about American aid to the
[1:09] Caribbean basin. Schultz was
[1:11] non-committal. Schultz had promised to
[1:14] make a statement to reporters on his
[1:15] arrival, but the White House immunized
[1:18] him from foot and mouth disease. The
[1:20] president's national security adviser,
[1:22] William Clark, decided Schultz would not
[1:24] talk to reporters until he had seen
[1:26] President Reagan. And as Al Hey
[1:28] discovered, Clark is in charge now. John
[1:32] Cochran, NBC News, Dallas Airport.
[1:38] >> It was National Security Adviser William
[1:40] Clark who escorted George Schultz from
[1:42] the plane. Clark, who is first among
[1:45] equals on the White House staff, whose
[1:47] growing prominence helped cause
[1:49] Alexander Heg to quit. Together with
[1:51] Clark, James Baker, and Ed Me, the
[1:53] secretary designate, flew to Camp David,
[1:56] first to meet with the president, then
[1:57] to have lunch.
[1:59] >> Afterwards, Schultz emphasized his
[2:00] ability to work on the president's team.
[2:02] >> That I can work
[2:06] sympatico
[2:07] for him and with his administration. The
[2:11] president's men wouldn't talk about why
[2:13] Heg quit.
[2:14] >> What's your version of why Secretary Heg
[2:16] resigned, Mr. Clark?
[2:19] >> But here is what happened. June 11th,
[2:22] the president returned from Europe. So
[2:24] did Haye, ordered not to go to Jerusalem
[2:26] as he'd wanted. On the trip home, Haye
[2:29] complained about big things like east
[2:31] west trade decisions and little things
[2:33] like where he was seated on the plane.
[2:36] The next week, the president sent
[2:37] special envoy Habib instructions without
[2:40] going through Hey. Friday, June 18th,
[2:43] while Hey met with Gro in New York, the
[2:45] president sided against him on the
[2:47] Soviet pipeline. Monday, June 21st. Hey
[2:51] overruled Clark, persuading the
[2:53] president to take a softer line with
[2:55] Manim.
[2:56] Wednesday, June 23rd. Hey, and Clark
[2:59] looked friendly. They weren't. Hey was
[3:02] upset about losing to Clark on the
[3:04] pipeline issue. reversing what he had
[3:06] promised western allies. And there was
[3:09] growing concern at the White House that
[3:10] hey was wrong on the Middle East. The
[3:12] president should have been tougher with
[3:14] Bean.
[3:15] >> That same day, Ed me said the infighting
[3:18] wasn't hurting foreign policy.
[3:20] >> I think there's some strong differences
[3:21] of opinion, but it's not the kind of
[3:23] thing that they snarl and spit at each
[3:24] other or uh or are unwilling to sit in
[3:27] the same room and talk these things out
[3:28] in front of the presidents. Privately,
[3:30] top aids were worried about foreign
[3:32] policy direction and fed up with Heg's
[3:35] prickliness. They ordered spokesman
[3:37] Larry Speaks to increase the pressure on
[3:39] Israel to tell reporters that Bean had
[3:41] promised he wouldn't take Beirut. Hey
[3:44] felt undercut on the Middle East and the
[3:46] pipeline. He exploded to Clark and quit.
[3:50] Top White House aids are relieved that
[3:52] hey is out and made a big show today of
[3:54] bringing Schultz on board. They're
[3:56] hoping that will take attention away
[3:58] from what looks like confusion in the
[4:00] president's foreign policy. Andrea
[4:02] Mitchell, NBC News, the White House. If
[4:05] there was confusion over US foreign
[4:07] policy, it came from the widening
[4:09] disparity between the official line from
[4:11] the White House and the softer line
[4:13] emanating from Secretary Heg's State
[4:15] Department, where correspondent Marvin
[4:17] Calb has been hearing that department's
[4:19] view of events.
[4:21] The chronic conflict between Heg and the
[4:23] White House came to a head and exploded
[4:25] this past week over administration
[4:27] policy toward Israel and Lebanon. The
[4:29] president during his meeting last Monday
[4:31] with Israel's Prime Minister Bean seemed
[4:34] to be following Heg's advice and not
[4:36] publicly chastising the Israeli leader
[4:38] for his controversial actions in
[4:40] Lebanon. In private, Bean promised that
[4:42] his troops would not enter Beirut. But
[4:45] on Tuesday, while Heg and Bean at a
[4:47] farewell get together continued to
[4:49] convey an impression of harmony, Israeli
[4:51] troops tightened their strangle hold
[4:53] around Beirut, raising questions at the
[4:55] White House about whether it was time to
[4:57] put obvious distance between the US and
[5:00] Israel. Defense Secretary Weinberger and
[5:03] National Security Adviser Clark argued
[5:05] yes, high time. Hey argued no, that it
[5:09] was in the US interest to look the other
[5:10] way while Israel disarmed the PLO in
[5:13] Beirut. Wednesday, the president pulled
[5:16] in both directions, began to swing
[5:18] toward Clark, away from Hey, there were
[5:21] meetings with Britain's Prime Minister
[5:22] Thatcher after which Hey, asked if he
[5:25] was having problems with Clark brushed
[5:27] aside the very thought.
[5:28] >> Not at all.
[5:29] >> Was any of this meeting oneonone between
[5:32] two leaders?
[5:33] >> Not at all. That is the nonsense.
[5:35] >> Thursday, Clark ordered spokesman Larry
[5:37] Speaks to disclose that Bean had
[5:39] promised the president that Israel would
[5:41] not enter Beirut. Clark conveyed the
[5:43] same message to the Saudis. Hey was not
[5:46] consulted. He angrily complained,
[5:48] denounced mixed signals, saying such
[5:50] confusion could lead to countless
[5:52] additional casualties and give the PLO
[5:55] the wrong idea about what is or is not
[5:57] possible. Hey again resigned in disgust.
[6:01] Only this time it seems he was set up.
[6:03] The president accepted it.
[6:05] For a man concerned about signals and
[6:07] their impact, Hey, with his resignation
[6:09] conveyed the biggest one of them all,
[6:11] suggesting a year and a half into the
[6:13] Reagan administration that the president
[6:15] still cannot get his foreign policy act
[6:17] together. Marvin Calb, NBC News,
[6:20] Washington.
[6:22] >> And late word this afternoon, the Senate
[6:24] Foreign Relations Committee is expected
[6:25] to start confirmation hearings on the
[6:27] Schultz appointment beginning on July
[6:29] 12th. If confirmed is expected, Schultz
[6:32] will become the nation's 60th Secretary
[6:34] of State. Coming up, a break in the
[6:36] ceasefire in Lebanon. Details next.
[6:43] >> The day begins. So does the magic.
[6:46] Lights turn off automatically. You're in
[6:49] control. Managing information,
[6:53] managing productivity,
[6:55] managing energy,
[6:57] managing costs.
[7:00] managing change.
[7:02] And that's just some of the ways a Bell
[7:04] business system can help you manage
[7:05] better. Want to see him again? Call your
[7:08] Bell System account executive. The
[7:11] knowledge business.
[7:13] >> Mr. Columbus traveling far
[7:15] >> to the new world.
[7:17] >> Loaded with gold, huh?
[7:18] >> Too risky. We carry Bank America
[7:20] travelers checks. World money.
[7:22] >> Bank America travelers checks. Bank
[7:24] America in leading world currencies
[7:27] accepted in over 160 countries.
[7:30] >> And if they're lost,
[7:31] >> lost.
[7:31] >> I would say lost. Besides, they're
[7:32] refundable in 40,000 places around the
[7:35] world. It is round, you know.
[7:41] >> Bank America travelers checks.
[7:44] >> Israeli war plananes strea valley today
[7:47] and broke the new ceasefire. They
[7:49] destroyed Soviet supplied groundto-air
[7:52] missiles. Those missiles apparently
[7:53] being set up to replace rockets which
[7:55] the Israelis had destroyed earlier. But
[7:57] so far now this is the only violation of
[7:59] this new ceasefire as Bob Kerr reports
[8:02] from Tel Aviv.
[8:07] >> The sound of music replaced the sound of
[8:09] gunfire just south of Beirut today. The
[8:12] ceasefire in this area meant a break for
[8:14] Israeli troops, but the situation is
[8:17] delicate. And a US diplomatic source
[8:19] told NBC News that Secretary Heg's
[8:22] resignation has put some heat on Israel
[8:24] in terms of timing because he said the
[8:26] implications of the resignation for
[8:28] Israel are unknown. Israeli officials
[8:31] say Heg's resignation might force Israel
[8:34] to move swiftly to wipe out the PLO in
[8:36] Beirut. Yakov Meridor, an Israeli
[8:39] cabinet minister, says at a meeting
[8:41] tomorrow, Israeli officials will discuss
[8:43] whether to invade Beirut. There is a
[8:46] commitment by the government not to do
[8:47] it but the commitment is a temporary one
[8:53] and in my opinion it's changing a bit
[8:57] tilting because if the necessity will
[9:00] come and there will be no other choice
[9:01] then we shall have to do it. the PLO
[9:05] actually is uh going to face the uh
[9:09] complete destruction undoubtedly
[9:12] and we cannot settle for anything short
[9:14] of it. Many Israeli officials still hope
[9:17] for a political solution in Beirut
[9:19] because the cost of an invasion would be
[9:21] high but it remains possible because as
[9:24] one cabinet official put it tonight we
[9:26] would still like to finish the Beirut
[9:28] situation quickly. Bob Kerr, NBC News in
[9:32] Tel Aviv.
[9:33] In Lebanon, the Palestine Liberation
[9:35] Organization welcomed the resignation of
[9:37] Secretary Heg, blaming him for what the
[9:40] PLO called Israel's scorched earth
[9:42] policy. Around Beirut, the intense
[9:44] ground fighting continued right up to
[9:46] the start of the ceasefire. Steve
[9:48] Mallalerie reports from Beirut.
[9:55] >> It was the most intensive bombardment of
[9:57] Beirut since the war began 3 weeks ago.
[10:00] As usual, the US-made war plananes
[10:02] arrived shortly before sunset.
[10:07] A Palestinian anti-aircraft battery. No
[10:10] hits.
[10:14] The sound of Israeli artillery and
[10:16] gunboat fire hitting in Palestinian and
[10:18] Lebanese neighborhoods.
[10:21] The view and sound from a shallow earthn
[10:23] trench.
[10:34] The Palestinians fire back.
[10:41] Lebanese officials estimated that 2,000
[10:43] people were killed or injured during the
[10:45] dayong bombardments.
[10:48] A young girl dead, an elderly woman,
[10:51] shrapnel wounds, a Palestinian fighter.
[10:55] Most of the casualties were civilians.
[11:04] The ceasefire was greeted with a sigh of
[11:06] relief. People came out this morning to
[11:08] see what the Israelis had destroyed this
[11:10] time, to see what was left.
[11:13] The Israeli bombardment was devastating.
[11:15] If there are any survivors trapped in
[11:17] the rubble of this building or bodies,
[11:20] it will probably be weeks or months
[11:22] before anyone has time to search for
[11:23] them. And even now, the Israeli war
[11:26] plananes are still flying overhead.
[11:29] More families in this area packed up,
[11:31] looking for other places to live, having
[11:33] no confidence in more Israeli agreements
[11:35] to yet another ceasefire.
[11:37] While people left their homes, Lebanese
[11:40] leaders were meeting, evaluating effects
[11:42] of Alexander Hag's resignation. Many
[11:44] hoping Heg's departure could make it
[11:46] possible to resolve the crisis
[11:48] peacefully, to give the Palestinians
[11:50] some honorable way out and to save the
[11:52] Lebanese capital from total destruction.
[11:54] Steve Mallalerie, NBC News, Beirut.
[11:58] >> And here in this country, among those
[12:00] not completely satisfied with the
[12:01] Hinckley trial, the judge, that story
[12:04] and more next.
[12:09] >> Something wrong, Mrs. Phelps.
[12:11] >> Off day, I guess. constipation
[12:14] >> and my laxative just
[12:15] >> Did you think of Xlax? Give me your
[12:17] hand.
[12:18] >> Well, that's not the XLax I know.
[12:20] >> That's the XLax pill. We call it the
[12:22] overnight wonder because XLax gently
[12:25] restores your system's own natural
[12:27] rhythm.
[12:28] >> So, in the morning,
[12:29] >> you're back on the bright side because
[12:30] pills or chocolateed XLax is the
[12:33] overnight wonder.
[12:35] >> One little pill.

[13:06] 100% gas reliever.
[13:10] Hey, Ernie. Good to have you back. Here
[13:13] >> he comes.
[13:15] >> Sentry Insurance knows that sometimes it
[13:18] takes more to get an injured worker back
[13:20] on his feet than just putting his
[13:22] medical bills. And Sentry is big enough
[13:24] to do more. Sentry can provide for
[13:27] physical therapy, even job retraining if
[13:30] it's needed to get a worker back where
[13:31] he belongs.
[13:33] >> Bernie, you look terrific.
[13:35] >> All's well. with Centra. You know, all
[13:38] well,
[13:39] >> the judge in the John Hinckley trial
[13:41] today praised the work of the jury, but
[13:43] he cautioned against what he called an
[13:45] hysterical reaction to the jury's
[13:47] finding that Hinckley was insane and not
[13:50] criminally responsible when he shot
[13:52] President Reagan and three others. The
[13:53] judge spoke with law correspondent Carl
[13:56] Stern in Washington.
[13:59] >> When some of the Hinckley jurors were
[14:01] questioned by senators after the
[14:02] verdict, the judge declined to appear.
[14:05] Today in an interview, Judge Barington
[14:07] Parker said he thought he and the jurors
[14:08] were being made scapegoats after a
[14:10] verdict he called reasonable, although
[14:12] he indicated he might have voted the
[14:14] other way.
[14:15] >> I was I was somewhat surprised over it.
[14:18] I thought that uh the evidence uh
[14:22] a a conclusion could have uh been
[14:25] reached uh the the other way by virtue
[14:27] of the evidence. the jury to some extent
[14:30] and I hope that u the uh the funeral
[14:33] will will die down the jury to some
[14:35] extent and perhaps even a court uh has
[14:40] been made a a scapegoat.
[14:43] The 12 members of that jury were
[14:48] in my uh judgment very courageous.
[14:52] Uh they voted on the evidence as they
[14:54] saw it. Judge Parker indicated he'd like
[14:57] to see some limitations on psychiatric
[14:59] testimony, but he said we shouldn't rush
[15:01] to change the law because of hysteria
[15:03] over the Hinckley verdict.
[15:05] >> You're not so steamed up about what
[15:06] happened here that you want to throw out
[15:08] the whole insanity defense.
[15:09] >> Oh, no, not at all. Not at all. No, not
[15:11] at all. Not at all. You think some uh
[15:14] fine-tuning could be done with respect
[15:15] to psychiatric testimony? And that's
[15:17] >> You have an appropriate way of putting
[15:18] it. I would have used that word if you
[15:19] hadn't used it. Fine-tuning.
[15:21] >> You think that's what's needed?
[15:23] >> Probably so. probably. So,
[15:25] >> Carl Stern, NBC News, Washington.
[15:29] >> Coming up, Heg tops tax talk at the
[15:31] Democrats midterm convention. And we'll
[15:33] have details right after this.
[15:38] >> When we tell you Michelin radios last
[15:41] and last,
[15:41] >> that's no surprise.
[15:42] >> When we tell you Michelin radios save
[15:44] gas,
[15:45] >> that's no surprise.
[15:46] >> But when we tell you you can get
[15:48] Michelins for about the same price as
[15:50] other leading radios,
[15:51] >> now that's a surprise. But it's true.
[15:54] We're America's fastest growing tire
[15:56] company. We make the tire you need at a
[15:59] price you can afford. See your Michelin
[16:01] dealer and price is set for your car.
[16:03] You'll be pleasantly surprised.
[16:05] Michelin, we put America on radials.
[16:10] We've made an improvement to famous
[16:12] Lidden Spread House paint, but it's not
[16:14] on the label because the improvements in
[16:16] the price. Now spread house paint is on
[16:19] sale for only $11.99 a gallon. And the
[16:21] same great improvement applies to Gluten
[16:23] Spread Oil Stain. It's on sale for just
[16:26] $10.99 a gallon. But you better hurry.
[16:28] Gluten Spread Oil Stain and Spread House
[16:30] paint will always be great, but the
[16:32] prices may never be better.
[16:37] >> It shows.
[16:39] >> If you're worried about stains on your
[16:40] dentures, don't have the cherry pie
[16:43] unless you have the cream. Denture
[16:45] cream. And don't have the coffee unless
[16:48] you have the cream. Denue cream. Denture
[16:51] Cream's powerful anti-stain formula
[16:53] helps brush away tough stains, and its
[16:55] refreshing mint flavor leaves dentures
[16:57] clean and fresh. So, don't have the
[17:00] berries unless you have the cream.
[17:03] Anti-stain formula, Denue Cream with
[17:06] refreshing mint.
[17:09] The HEG resignation rivaled talk of
[17:11] taxes at the Democratic Party's midterm
[17:13] convention in Philadelphia today. Ken
[17:15] Bod reports on party leaders response to
[17:18] the Heg departure. The potentially
[17:20] ominous events in Washington of
[17:22] yesterday
[17:25] hold, I think, real peril for our
[17:27] country.
[17:27] >> The Democrats are still trying to sort
[17:29] out what the Heg resignation means.
[17:32] >> The resignation yesterday of Alexander
[17:34] Heg reveals a disturbing reality in this
[17:36] country and that is that we have a
[17:38] foreign policy that has cast a drift.
[17:41] >> Senator Paul Sanis originally refused to
[17:43] vote for Heg's confirmation. Now Sus is
[17:46] worried about Heg's departure. And now,
[17:48] as of yesterday, the most effective
[17:50] voice for moderation in the inner
[17:53] councils has been silenced. The
[17:55] hardliners have triumphed. At this
[17:58] foreign policy workshop, the Democrats
[18:00] called for a summit meeting soon between
[18:02] Reagan and Brev.
[18:04] >> The main objective in Philadelphia is to
[18:06] keep attention focused on Ronald
[18:08] Reagan's economic policy. This workshop
[18:11] on agriculture
[18:12] >> seems to me that Ronald Reagan's got
[18:14] what I call the tote agricultural
[18:16] policy. You know, they say if you get up
[18:18] in the morning and eat a lab toad,
[18:19] nothing worse is going to happen to you
[18:20] for the rest of the day.
[18:23] >> In the basement of the hall, the
[18:24] potential presidential candidates are
[18:26] still doing plenty of business in their
[18:28] campaign trailers. JUSTICE NOW,
[18:31] >> ONE note here disrupted the Democrats
[18:33] party unity. Some women charged the
[18:36] party didn't back up its promise to
[18:38] support the ERRA.
[18:40] >> Eight unratified states are totally
[18:42] controlled by the Democratic Party. And
[18:45] you tell me that they couldn't ratify
[18:47] the Equal Rights Amendment if they
[18:49] really wanted to.
[18:52] >> The National Organization of Women
[18:53] released a list of Democrats they'll
[18:55] work to defeat in November.
[18:57] >> Tomorrow, the Democrats meet once again
[18:59] here in the main hall. The only
[19:01] presidential candidate left to speak is
[19:03] Ted Kennedy. Ken Bod, NBC News,
[19:05] Philadelphia.

[20:02] without salt. No salt tastes like salt,
[20:06] but there's no salt in no salt. You can
[20:08] shake no salt, cook with no salt, no
[20:12] salt, and shake the salt habit.
[20:17] It's working. Millions of people like
[20:20] you have fallen asleep faster with
[20:22] Unisome, the number one sleep aid in
[20:24] America. In clinical tests, Unisome
[20:27] helped people feel drowsy, so they fell
[20:29] asleep faster, an average of 23 minutes
[20:32] faster than they did without Unisome,
[20:35] and slept better all night. Unison,
[20:37] proven in clinical tests and by people
[20:40] like you. For occasional sleeplessness,
[20:42] fall asleep faster and rest assured with
[20:45] Unisome.
[20:47] >> And finally tonight, the space shuttle
[20:49] will carry its first secret defense
[20:51] cargo tomorrow when it takes off on its
[20:53] final test flight. Robert Bazelle
[20:55] reports from the Kennedy Space Center in
[20:57] Florida.
[20:58] >> Preparations for the fourth space
[21:00] shuttle launch have included practice
[21:01] rescues in case the Colombia is forced
[21:04] to ditch in the ocean. This morning,
[21:06] astronauts Thomas Mattingley and Henry
[21:08] Hartzfield went out to the runway here
[21:09] at the Kennedy Space Center and
[21:11] practiced emergency landings in case the
[21:13] Colombia blows an engine and is forced
[21:15] to come back down in a hurry. Despite
[21:18] the precautions on pad 39A, there were
[21:20] no indications of trouble. Officials
[21:22] preparing the spacecraft say this
[21:24] countdown has been the easiest yet.
[21:26] >> We're very optimistic and uh we see no
[21:29] problems and marching on forward toward
[21:31] the 11:00 liftoff time tomorrow morning.
[21:34] Late today, a fierce storm hit the area,
[21:36] but the forecast is for good weather in
[21:38] the morning. This is the last test
[21:39] flight of the Colombia. And this mission
[21:41] is also significant because there is a
[21:43] military payload on board, light sensing
[21:46] equipment for spying from space. And
[21:48] NASA says it is secret.
[21:50] >> We just felt that it is a reasonable
[21:52] thing to do to establish a a policy that
[21:57] says that we will not talk about the
[22:01] military payloads. NASA has never done
[22:03] anything in secret before. All of the
[22:05] exploration in the past was for everyone
[22:07] to see, but the shuttle will be carrying
[22:09] a lot of military payloads in the
[22:10] future, and our civilian space program
[22:12] will not be the same. Robert Bazelle,
[22:15] NBC News, at the Kennedy Space Center.
[22:18] >> NBC News will broadcast live coverage of
[22:20] tomorrow's launch with correspondent Tom
[22:22] Brooff beginning at 10:00 a.m. Eastern
[22:25] time. And that is our report tonight.
[22:27] John Hart will be here tomorrow. I'm
[22:28] Jessica Savage from New York. Thank you
[22:31] and good night from all of us at NBC
[22:33] News.

[24:09] >> Hi, mama.
[24:09] >> Hi. Did you get everything?
[24:11] >> Yeah.
[24:12] >> We used to buy a lot of what we thought
[24:14] were bargains. Well, this they like.
[24:18] >> This they didn't.
[24:20] >> This they like.
[24:21] >> Yeah. Great.
[24:22] This they didn't. What good's a bargain
[24:24] they don't like?
[24:25] >> Take toilet tissue. We're back to
[24:27] Charmin because it has all that
[24:29] squeezable softness we bargain for.
[24:31] >> And we like the convenience of this
[24:33] six-pack.
[24:34] >> Oh, we tried Noame toilet tissue.
[24:36] >> Not soft enough.
[24:37] >> Look, they both have the same number of
[24:40] sheets. Noame Charmin. See how much
[24:43] thicker and fluffier Charmin is? This
[24:45] softness they'll like.
[24:47] >> And this softness we're going to keep.
[24:49] Charmin in a convenient six-pack. A
[24:51] bargain they'll like.
[24:53] >> Hey, I want to show you something. A
[24:56] cleaning test that might just surprise
[24:58] you. Here's a dirty shirt. Grape jelly
[25:01] on the cuff, ketchup on the shoulder,
[25:04] ground in dirt at the elbow. Now, to
[25:07] make it even tougher, I'll tie this into
[25:09] a knot about this tight. Why? To show
[25:13] you that dirt can't hide from extra
[25:15] action.
