Since mangling his knee on the job, Sully insists that he is owed compensation. His one legged lawyer, Wirf, portrayed marvelously by Gene Saks, can't get the local judge to agree.

White House spokesman Mike McCurry said today that an announcement was likely "in a matter of days" if the shared responsibility arrangement can be resolved to Fowler and Dodd's satisfaction.
