"Uh, a lot of the mail we get- emails and messages- concern Booth and his seat belt. And um, people say, “You should make David put on a seat belt.” So here’s a number of things. One: You can’t make David do anything. Two: He heard somewhere, or he says he heard somewhere that real F.B.I agents don’t put on their seat belts in case they have to dash into action. And three: That car is not actually moving at all. It’s on a stage with film behind it. So why put on a seat belt? Emily of course, puts on her seat belt to be an example to America. Because that’s the way she is."
