The Break-In

Fifty years ago, the break-in at the Watergate began a chain reaction that started with a cover-up and ended with the resignation of President Nixon. John Dean, former counsel to the President, gives color to the narrative that this wasn't a two-bit bungled endeavor; instead, it was one of many operations orchestrated by Nixon's people. We reveal the real story behind the beginning of the cover-up and Dean being pulled onto center stage.

The Coverup Continues

Dean is pulled deeper into the cover-up until it becomes too much to bear, and he realizes that he must convince Nixon to end it. He decides to take Nixon through problems that can only be solved by the truth. Events follow quickly as Dean's superiors plan to make him the scapegoat for their actions. But they have selected the wrong person, for as Bob Woodward later described it: Dean was willing to blow himself up to end the coverup. Dean doesn't flip, instead, he simply tells the truth, which Nixon later described in his memoir as information from which they could never recover.
