[00:00.00]HEATHER:Mr.Hobart,please feel free to elaborate on anything you like.
[00:20.79]I want this interview to feel like a conversation.
[00:23.43]RICHARD:I’ll do my best.
[00:25.39]HEATHER:Heather Vialo,WBNN,reporting from Richard Hobart’s office.
[00:32.24]Thursday,October 12th.
[00:34.59]Richard Hobart,you’re a highly respected and very popular attorney for the State.
[00:39.03]RICHARD:Thank you.
[00:40.36]HEATHER:Isn’t that extremely unusual for a public employee?
[00:43.83]RICHARD:I don’t know.There are competent civil servants,who do a good job.
[00:47.65]We don’t hear very much about them in the media though.It’s too bad.
[00:51.49]HEATHER:Sometimes the media discover a white knight.Is that how you feel?
[00:55.41]RICHARD:No.I feel that people greatly appreciate
[00:58.64]when their concerns have been addressed.
[01:00.60]HEATHER:Are you going to run for public office?
[01:03.24]RICHARD:I’m not running anywhere at the moment.
[01:05.99]HEATHER:All right.Are you considering entering a race?
[01:09.15]RICHARD:I consider any good opportunity that comes across my desk.Don’t you?
[01:13.38]HEATHER:I certainly do.
[01:15.34]HEATHER:Who do you think your opponent will be?
[01:17.79]RICHARD:Have I said,"No comment"yet?
[01:19.93]HEATHER:Not in so many words.But you’re good.
[01:22.99]It’s very difficult to get answers to some of my questions.
[01:26.47]RICHARD:What can I say?
[01:28.01]HEATHER:"No comment,"evidently!
[01:33.78]YVONNE:I am exhausted.Are you?
[01:43.13]NANCY:We have been working almost three weeks without a break.We deserve a day off.
[01:50.68]YVONNE:A day off?Honey,we don’t have time for a nap.
[01:58.23]NANCY:Do you want another cup of coffee?
[02:02.07]YVONNE:No thanks.I’ve been drinking so much,it’s losing its effect.
[02:06.43]NANCY:You know what?Forget the coffee.
[02:13.59]Forget the nap.We need to get our blood moving.
[02:17.25]NANCY:Come on,take deep breaths.Do you remember when I quit drinking coffee?
[02:30.52]YVONNE:Yes.You were a monster.
[02:36.87]NANCY:Hey,I’d been drinking six cups a day when I quit.
[02:44.23]Then,when I had quit for...oh...eight months,I started drinking it again.
[02:54.18]And those first cups...wonderful.It was almost worth quitting.
[03:07.35]YVONNE:Please don’t do it again.I can’t take your withdrawal symptoms.
[03:12.71]NANCY:Let’s try a little yoga.
[03:18.66]YVONNE:Oh god.What if we can’t get out of these positions?
[03:33.32]NANCY:Take nice,deep breaths.
[03:38.17]YVONNE:I can just hear it on the news:"
[03:40.53]"Two Cambridge women had frozen in yoga positions,
[03:45.28]when their husbands found them tonight."
[03:48.21]NANCY:Deep,cleansing breaths.
[03:53.53]YVONNE:"Doctors at Boston Hospital have been trying to unknot them for six hours."
[03:59.80]NANCY:Feel your energy.
[04:04.45]YVONNE:Feel my energy?Nancy,I can’t feel my legs!
