William Randa and Houston Brooks arrive by taxi to the entrance of the Congressional Building, during which protesters against the war in Vietnam chant on the street. Upon entering the building, Brooks suggests that now is not the best time to do this, however Randa rebuttals and tells him that once the war is over Monarch will never get approval for their expedition. Entering the waiting room, they glance over to see a television broadcasting an announcement made by President Nixon stating that they are withdrawing from the war. Since Randa intends to use troops stationed in Vietnam as a military escort for Skull Island, he tells Brooks that they can't wait another day to talk with the Senator and implies it has to be done right now. While speaking with the secretary and attempting to set up a meeting, Senator Al Willis walks out of his office and they all quickly notice each other. To the senators annoyance he is pulled into a quick unscheduled discussion with Randa and Brooks. Ultimately it is Brooks who convinces Senator Willis to greenlight their expedition to Skull Island. With their goal of covertly gaining government funding complete and now having the required military escort, they leave for Vietnam.
