- 0:00Speaker 1: We were sitting right next to each other. First, Lady
- 0:02Speaker 1: am I right, And I heard a noise and sort
- 0:06Speaker 1: of thought it was a tray. I thought it was
- 0:08Speaker 1: a tray going down, you know, I've heard that many times,
- 0:12Speaker 1: and it was pretty loud, and it was from quite
- 0:14Speaker 1: far away. He hadn't breached the area at all. They
- 0:18Speaker 1: really got him, but so it was quite far away.
- 0:21Speaker 1: But it was a gun, and some people really understood
- 0:26Speaker 1: that pretty quickly. Other people didn't. I was watching to
- 0:30Speaker 1: see what was happening. Probably she should have gone down
- 0:32Speaker 1: even faster. Milania was very cognizant, I think of what happened.
- 0:38Speaker 1: I think she knew immediately what happened. She was saying,
- 0:42Speaker 1: that's a bad noise. And we were whisked away along
- 0:49Speaker 1: with other people. But we were really whisked away. And
- 0:52Speaker 1: again the performance of the Secret Service and the police,
- 0:55Speaker 1: all of the law enforce breath though. It was really good.
- 0:58Speaker 1: So it was very quick. There was a lot of
- 1:00Speaker 1: time to be thinking because it was a matter of
- 1:02Speaker 1: seconds before we were out the door and gone into
- 1:06Speaker 1: an area. We very much and you wanted to too.
- 1:08Speaker 1: We very much wanted to continue it because I don't
- 1:11Speaker 1: like to let these sick people, these thugs, these horrible,
- 1:15Speaker 1: horrible people, change the fabric of our life, change the
- 1:19Speaker 1: course of what we do. We held up, you were there,
- 1:22Speaker 1: We held out right till the end. But they didn't
- 1:25Speaker 1: want to take a chance. And I understand it was protocol.
