00:00:05,652 --> 00:00:07,780
[siren blaring]
2
00:00:08,405 --> 00:00:10,491
[dog barking]
3
00:00:20,209 --> 00:00:24,129
[helicopter overhead]
4
00:00:56,161 --> 00:00:58,872
[panting]
5
00:02:49,858 --> 00:02:52,486
We could jump in the car, if...
6
00:02:52,611 --> 00:02:54,404
We'll wait.
7
00:02:56,323 --> 00:02:57,532
Did you get the congressman
8
00:02:57,532 --> 00:02:59,534
- anything for his birthday?
- No.
9
00:02:59,951 --> 00:03:01,995
I got him cuff links.
10
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:04,623
- Silver, with his...
- We don't talk about birthdays.
11
00:03:04,664 --> 00:03:07,084
- We don't do gifts.
- Why not?
12
00:03:07,584 --> 00:03:09,878
You should return the cuff links.
13
00:03:10,003 --> 00:03:11,588
[Frank] Doug.
14
00:03:12,005 --> 00:03:13,715
Tried calling you.
15
00:03:13,757 --> 00:03:16,009
- I left my phone in the...
- We need to talk.
16
00:03:19,638 --> 00:03:21,765
- What's going on?
- Christina.
17
00:03:21,807 --> 00:03:24,226
- I just spoke to her.
- Did Zoe?
18
00:03:24,267 --> 00:03:25,852
Yeah, and that's not all.
19
00:03:25,894 --> 00:03:27,562
They tracked down Rachel, too.
20
00:03:27,687 --> 00:03:29,105
Francis.
21
00:03:29,898 --> 00:03:31,650
Tell me about Rachel.
22
00:03:31,817 --> 00:03:32,818
Where is she?
23
00:03:32,818 --> 00:03:34,236
I have her under control.
24
00:03:34,361 --> 00:03:35,737
That's not what I asked.
25
00:03:35,987 --> 00:03:37,447
I drove her home.
26
00:03:37,572 --> 00:03:38,824
We don't have to worry about her.
27
00:03:38,865 --> 00:03:40,826
You said the same about Ms. Skorsky.
28
00:03:42,244 --> 00:03:43,912
Anyone else involved?
29
00:03:43,954 --> 00:03:45,330
Just Janine and Zoe.
30
00:03:45,372 --> 00:03:46,665
They asked about Russo's arrest,
31
00:03:46,665 --> 00:03:48,250
and they know he went to see Kapeniak.
32
00:03:48,500 --> 00:03:50,252
I assume that's as far as they've gotten.
33
00:03:50,293 --> 00:03:51,878
Assume nothing.
34
00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:53,338
I'll alert Barney Hull.
35
00:03:53,588 --> 00:03:56,132
- What do you want me to do about Zoe?
- I'll handle Zoe.
36
00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:58,426
- Get to work.
- Yes, sir.
37
00:04:11,356 --> 00:04:12,816
I emptied it.
38
00:04:13,441 --> 00:04:15,694
You're another year older on Tuesday.
39
00:04:15,777 --> 00:04:18,613
And we can't have a vice
president who smokes.
40
00:04:27,414 --> 00:04:29,207
[grunting]
41
00:04:29,583 --> 00:04:31,710
- Can you finish?
- What?
42
00:04:32,544 --> 00:04:34,296
I'm good.
43
00:04:35,046 --> 00:04:36,673
What's wrong?
44
00:04:36,965 --> 00:04:39,050
Nothing. I just said finish.
45
00:04:39,092 --> 00:04:41,469
Well, I don't want to
just... if you're not...
46
00:04:41,595 --> 00:04:43,680
Ok, fine.
47
00:04:43,722 --> 00:04:44,764
Whatever.
48
00:04:47,642 --> 00:04:49,603
Zoe, did I do something that made you... ?
49
00:04:49,644 --> 00:04:50,395
No.
50
00:04:51,730 --> 00:04:53,231
Zoe, you can't say something like
51
00:04:53,273 --> 00:04:56,026
"just finish" and then shut down.
52
00:05:03,199 --> 00:05:06,244
This is safe, Zoe. I'm not him.
53
00:05:14,169 --> 00:05:16,379
Good morning, Jackie.
54
00:05:17,714 --> 00:05:19,716
Good morning.
55
00:05:22,218 --> 00:05:23,386
Richard Russell?
56
00:05:23,428 --> 00:05:25,889
Civil Rights Act, 1963.
57
00:05:26,181 --> 00:05:28,350
Not everyone can be on
the right side of history.
58
00:05:28,350 --> 00:05:29,976
Not even Lyndon for a time,
59
00:05:30,018 --> 00:05:32,562
but he would've never become
majority leader without him.
60
00:05:33,021 --> 00:05:35,023
Well, there's no Johnson Senate building.
61
00:05:35,065 --> 00:05:37,901
No, he had to settle for
a presidential library.
62
00:05:38,401 --> 00:05:39,569
So it's been some time
63
00:05:39,611 --> 00:05:41,237
since you and I have
had a chance to catch up.
64
00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:43,239
You've been an outstanding deputy, Jackie.
65
00:05:43,239 --> 00:05:45,950
Far more effective than your
more seasoned colleagues.
66
00:05:46,076 --> 00:05:47,327
You're a coalition builder,
67
00:05:47,327 --> 00:05:48,912
a fighter when you have to be.
68
00:05:49,579 --> 00:05:51,956
Tell me, where do you see yourself headed?
69
00:05:53,374 --> 00:05:56,377
I'd like to aim for the
chair of Armed Services.
70
00:05:56,377 --> 00:05:57,879
Or Homeland Security.
71
00:05:58,088 --> 00:06:00,507
Have you ever considered
serving in the leadership?
72
00:06:01,508 --> 00:06:03,718
I figure that might be possible eight,
73
00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:04,677
ten years from now.
74
00:06:04,719 --> 00:06:06,888
What if I suggested that you
could serve in the leadership
75
00:06:06,888 --> 00:06:08,348
this term?
76
00:06:08,681 --> 00:06:10,183
To replace me,
77
00:06:10,433 --> 00:06:11,309
as whip.
78
00:06:13,394 --> 00:06:14,938
You're being tapped for VP.
79
00:06:14,979 --> 00:06:16,523
Let's assume that's true.
80
00:06:17,190 --> 00:06:18,316
That makes sense,
81
00:06:18,358 --> 00:06:20,193
but me as whip?
82
00:06:20,276 --> 00:06:20,985
Yes.
83
00:06:21,236 --> 00:06:22,654
A third-term congresswoman?
84
00:06:22,695 --> 00:06:24,239
A universally admired incumbent
85
00:06:24,239 --> 00:06:27,283
who also happens to be a war veteran.
86
00:06:27,325 --> 00:06:28,785
Webb is next in line.
87
00:06:28,827 --> 00:06:30,245
Or Buchwalter.
88
00:06:30,787 --> 00:06:31,955
Mmm-hmm.
89
00:06:32,580 --> 00:06:35,500
So just consider that for a moment.
90
00:06:39,129 --> 00:06:41,089
They'll draw votes from one another.
91
00:06:42,131 --> 00:06:44,092
Oh, I'm not saying you
wouldn't have to fight for it.
92
00:06:44,092 --> 00:06:46,135
But I'd be willing to
give you the ammunition.
93
00:06:48,137 --> 00:06:49,889
Come over here.
94
00:06:55,770 --> 00:06:57,313
What is this?
95
00:06:57,689 --> 00:07:00,483
My files on Webb and Buchwalter.
96
00:07:00,608 --> 00:07:02,026
Why don't you take a look?
97
00:07:02,235 --> 00:07:04,195
We'll speak in a few days.
98
00:07:04,654 --> 00:07:06,573
Oh, and there's one on you.
99
00:07:06,614 --> 00:07:09,117
You might wanna begin by
reading that one first.
100
00:07:29,262 --> 00:07:30,930
[phone dinging]
101
00:07:31,055 --> 00:07:32,515
What'd Janine say?
102
00:07:32,557 --> 00:07:34,309
Strip club's not open yet.
103
00:07:34,684 --> 00:07:36,352
You look into Kapeniak?
104
00:07:36,477 --> 00:07:38,229
If he's on the grid, I'll find him.
105
00:07:40,273 --> 00:07:41,733
Drop me at Metro Center.
106
00:07:41,816 --> 00:07:43,026
Not the office?
107
00:07:43,735 --> 00:07:45,653
I'm gonna talk to Rachel.
108
00:07:46,112 --> 00:07:47,155
She'll deny everything,
109
00:07:47,196 --> 00:07:48,406
like she did last night.
110
00:07:48,406 --> 00:07:51,492
She can't deny getting into
Stamper's car. You saw her.
111
00:07:52,785 --> 00:07:55,413
Maybe you send a version
of the story about her dad.
112
00:07:55,705 --> 00:07:57,415
No one would print it.
113
00:07:57,874 --> 00:07:59,751
Rachel doesn't know that.
114
00:07:59,834 --> 00:08:01,878
She said, "Go to town, bitch."
115
00:08:01,919 --> 00:08:04,505
It won't work. I have to get in her face.
116
00:08:08,384 --> 00:08:09,761
[phone ringing]
117
00:08:09,844 --> 00:08:11,179
Congratulations.
118
00:08:13,139 --> 00:08:14,891
- We're thrilled for you.
- Thank you.
119
00:08:14,891 --> 00:08:16,851
I wanted to fill in Bob
and Terry personally.
120
00:08:16,976 --> 00:08:18,394
Now, let's get to it.
121
00:08:18,519 --> 00:08:20,688
- I have to leave for Pittsburgh in what?
- Twenty minutes.
122
00:08:20,730 --> 00:08:22,815
Homestretch with Jim. Whistle-stop tour.
123
00:08:22,815 --> 00:08:23,858
Looking good out there.
124
00:08:23,858 --> 00:08:25,735
Very good, but we don't
want to take any chances.
125
00:08:25,777 --> 00:08:27,487
Now, your replacement as whip, Frank.
126
00:08:27,612 --> 00:08:29,280
Bob has already shared some thoughts.
127
00:08:29,364 --> 00:08:31,866
- I like Howard Webb.
- Webb is a solid choice.
128
00:08:31,866 --> 00:08:33,326
Have you thought about Wes Buchwalter?
129
00:08:33,368 --> 00:08:34,744
Buchwalter's a hothead.
130
00:08:34,827 --> 00:08:36,579
Well, could you live with Webb, Frank?
131
00:08:36,788 --> 00:08:38,289
Webb is a good tactician,
132
00:08:38,331 --> 00:08:39,582
but he lacks follow-through.
133
00:08:39,624 --> 00:08:40,958
The problem with Buchwalter is,
134
00:08:40,958 --> 00:08:43,544
he's too abrasive. No
charm. Lots of enemies.
135
00:08:43,586 --> 00:08:44,670
Is there a third option?
136
00:08:44,670 --> 00:08:47,256
They're the two most senior members
in the caucus. It's their turn.
137
00:08:47,298 --> 00:08:49,384
Mr. President, what if
we let the caucus pick?
138
00:08:49,425 --> 00:08:50,802
Let it be a wide open race.
139
00:08:50,843 --> 00:08:52,053
Both men are qualified.
140
00:08:52,053 --> 00:08:53,805
The leadership should be united in this.
141
00:08:53,805 --> 00:08:55,473
We don't want to be backing
different candidates.
142
00:08:55,473 --> 00:08:57,850
So we stay out of it, and
neither of us backs anyone.
143
00:08:57,892 --> 00:08:58,518
I like it.
144
00:08:58,559 --> 00:08:59,852
The caucus will respect someone who
145
00:08:59,852 --> 00:09:01,229
did it the old-fashioned way.
146
00:09:01,687 --> 00:09:03,815
[Walker] Well, gentlemen,
it's your call to make.
147
00:09:03,898 --> 00:09:05,233
Figure it out amongst yourselves,
148
00:09:05,274 --> 00:09:07,610
- let me know what you decide.
- Thank you, Mr. President.
149
00:09:09,028 --> 00:09:10,905
Put me through to Secretary Lewis.
150
00:09:11,739 --> 00:09:14,242
Frank, I don't want to go
to battle with you on this.
151
00:09:14,242 --> 00:09:16,452
- We've been down that road.
- I couldn't agree more.
152
00:09:16,494 --> 00:09:17,912
An open race makes me nervous.
153
00:09:17,912 --> 00:09:19,914
Look, it was just a suggestion.
154
00:09:20,498 --> 00:09:23,167
- I'll put some thought into it.
- Thank you.
155
00:09:25,378 --> 00:09:27,713
You know, let me... let me go work on him.
156
00:09:27,755 --> 00:09:29,549
Well, good luck.
157
00:09:32,009 --> 00:09:34,011
[indistinct chatter]
158
00:09:41,769 --> 00:09:43,229
What are you doing here?
159
00:09:43,271 --> 00:09:45,481
Ask me what I want to order.
160
00:09:52,196 --> 00:09:53,447
Have you decided, sir?
161
00:09:53,447 --> 00:09:54,782
I need you to quit your job.
162
00:09:54,782 --> 00:09:56,409
Tell Leon it's your last day.
163
00:09:56,784 --> 00:09:57,869
Why?
164
00:09:57,994 --> 00:09:59,662
Act normal.
165
00:10:03,249 --> 00:10:05,459
- Would you want a side with that?
- They found you once.
166
00:10:05,501 --> 00:10:07,169
We can't take the chance
they'll find you again.
167
00:10:07,169 --> 00:10:09,839
- What am I supposed to do about money?
- Do as I say.
168
00:10:10,006 --> 00:10:11,966
Go home and pack your things.
169
00:10:12,091 --> 00:10:13,384
I'll come by around ten.
170
00:10:13,384 --> 00:10:15,386
- I don't get a say in any... ?
- Stop it.
171
00:10:21,684 --> 00:10:24,145
One suitcase. That's it.
172
00:10:24,395 --> 00:10:26,355
- Can you at least tell me... ?
- I'll take the shepherd's pie
173
00:10:26,355 --> 00:10:28,274
with a side of brussels sprouts.
174
00:10:28,900 --> 00:10:30,109
To go.
175
00:10:31,861 --> 00:10:33,321
We don't want a trial,
176
00:10:33,362 --> 00:10:34,822
her lawyers don't want a trial,
177
00:10:34,864 --> 00:10:36,699
but Ms. Cole won't listen to reason.
178
00:10:36,824 --> 00:10:38,826
That said, if you give
me a little more time...
179
00:10:38,826 --> 00:10:39,702
If she wants to go to court,
180
00:10:39,744 --> 00:10:40,786
then let's give her that.
181
00:10:40,828 --> 00:10:43,039
Just because she's being
unreasonable now doesn't mean...
182
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:43,956
- she's...
- I'm done.
183
00:10:43,998 --> 00:10:45,499
That's a knee-jerk reaction.
184
00:10:45,541 --> 00:10:48,586
I've never known you to be a person
who is irrational or impatient.
185
00:10:48,628 --> 00:10:49,921
Let me check back with her lawyers...
186
00:10:49,921 --> 00:10:52,048
What's the soonest we can get a trial date?
187
00:10:52,089 --> 00:10:53,966
- Claire.
- Give me a time frame.
188
00:10:54,216 --> 00:10:56,344
Six months, at the earliest.
189
00:10:59,055 --> 00:11:00,514
Inform her people.
190
00:11:00,556 --> 00:11:03,017
Then no more communication.
191
00:11:03,476 --> 00:11:05,186
As your counsel, it is my duty
192
00:11:05,186 --> 00:11:07,146
to strongly advise you against this.
193
00:11:07,355 --> 00:11:09,732
I understand and I thank you, Oliver.
194
00:11:13,778 --> 00:11:15,154
Thank you.
195
00:11:16,405 --> 00:11:17,365
So?
196
00:11:17,406 --> 00:11:19,784
They wouldn't give me
individual contact info,
197
00:11:19,825 --> 00:11:21,535
but here's every doctor
198
00:11:21,535 --> 00:11:24,038
who served in East Africa
during the last three years.
199
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:25,414
And what about the HMO?
200
00:11:25,456 --> 00:11:26,874
You need a consent form.
201
00:11:26,916 --> 00:11:28,209
It's in the packet.
202
00:11:39,470 --> 00:11:40,680
Can I help you?
203
00:11:41,222 --> 00:11:43,766
Yeah, I'm looking for Rachel Posner.
204
00:11:43,891 --> 00:11:45,684
She's not here.
205
00:11:45,726 --> 00:11:48,270
- Is she coming in later?
- Why?
206
00:11:48,687 --> 00:11:50,189
I know her.
207
00:11:50,314 --> 00:11:52,483
Well, your friend really screwed me over.
208
00:11:52,525 --> 00:11:53,609
What happened?
209
00:11:53,651 --> 00:11:56,112
She took off, middle of her shift.
210
00:11:56,445 --> 00:11:58,906
I had to put my hostess on waitstaff duty.
211
00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:00,699
Look, I'm concerned.
212
00:12:00,699 --> 00:12:02,326
Rachel's in real trouble.
213
00:12:02,368 --> 00:12:04,286
I don't care what her personal issues are.
214
00:12:04,328 --> 00:12:05,746
I need to know where she lives.
215
00:12:05,788 --> 00:12:06,789
I thought you knew her.
216
00:12:06,831 --> 00:12:09,667
I do. It's just been a while and...
217
00:12:09,792 --> 00:12:13,003
she sent me a text message saying
she wants to hurt herself, and
218
00:12:13,087 --> 00:12:15,214
now she won't answer her phone.
219
00:12:15,464 --> 00:12:17,842
She has a history of mental illness.
220
00:12:18,384 --> 00:12:20,261
You gotta help me out.
221
00:12:27,101 --> 00:12:28,769
Look, I can't.
222
00:12:29,603 --> 00:12:30,604
Her W-2,
223
00:12:30,646 --> 00:12:31,814
the address is a PO box.
224
00:12:31,856 --> 00:12:33,357
I'll take whatever I can get.
225
00:12:35,609 --> 00:12:37,611
- Let me see what I got in the office.
- Thank you.
226
00:12:37,611 --> 00:12:38,863
If you find her,
227
00:12:38,988 --> 00:12:40,739
you tell her not to come back.
228
00:12:40,865 --> 00:12:43,826
I don't need some nut case
creating chaos in here.
229
00:12:46,370 --> 00:12:48,038
- Nancy?
- Yes, sir.
230
00:12:48,038 --> 00:12:49,957
- Is Doug back yet?
- In his office.
231
00:12:50,207 --> 00:12:51,292
And, sir?
232
00:12:51,667 --> 00:12:54,378
Birthday cards have started
to arrive. A few presents.
233
00:12:54,420 --> 00:12:56,672
Thank-you notes. Inventory the
presents. Anything valuable...
234
00:12:56,714 --> 00:12:58,382
- Goes in the conference room.
- Anything cheap...
235
00:12:58,382 --> 00:13:00,593
- Goes to the interns.
- You know what to do with the cards.
236
00:13:00,634 --> 00:13:02,261
Yes, sir.
237
00:13:09,310 --> 00:13:10,936
I'm picking her up tonight.
238
00:13:11,061 --> 00:13:12,813
I got everything set up for her in Joppa.
239
00:13:12,938 --> 00:13:14,732
- Where's that?
- Maryland,
240
00:13:14,773 --> 00:13:16,442
about 30 minutes north of Baltimore.
241
00:13:16,567 --> 00:13:17,902
That's close to home.
242
00:13:17,902 --> 00:13:19,153
We want her to disappear,
243
00:13:19,195 --> 00:13:20,571
but not on us.
244
00:13:20,696 --> 00:13:23,032
- Fine. Do you have the burner?
- Yeah.
245
00:13:31,999 --> 00:13:33,751
Happy birthday.
246
00:13:34,877 --> 00:13:37,713
It's pre-paid. All you need
to do is turn it on and dial.
247
00:13:37,796 --> 00:13:39,131
We still have the phone history.
248
00:13:39,256 --> 00:13:41,550
All the more reason to
be safe going forward.
249
00:13:41,675 --> 00:13:44,011
- Where are we with Christina?
- I'm on it.
250
00:13:44,053 --> 00:13:45,262
Linda's office.
251
00:13:45,387 --> 00:13:47,222
I called her this morning.
252
00:13:51,602 --> 00:13:53,312
Are you Gillian Cole?
253
00:13:53,354 --> 00:13:56,148
Yeah. Have we met?
254
00:13:56,732 --> 00:13:58,859
No, we haven't met. You know my husband.
255
00:13:58,901 --> 00:14:01,445
- Your husband?
- David Applebaum.
256
00:14:03,489 --> 00:14:06,325
- So it's true.
- It was a mistake.
257
00:14:06,784 --> 00:14:08,327
You wanna see our kids?
258
00:14:08,410 --> 00:14:09,787
I can show you pictures.
259
00:14:09,912 --> 00:14:12,373
- Mrs. Applebaum...
- Who the fuck do you think you are?
260
00:14:12,414 --> 00:14:13,457
I'm sorry.
261
00:14:13,582 --> 00:14:15,668
You're sorry? I don't think you're sorry.
262
00:14:15,709 --> 00:14:17,211
And don't think for a second
263
00:14:17,252 --> 00:14:19,088
you're gonna use that baby
to get money out of us.
264
00:14:19,129 --> 00:14:21,924
- He doesn't even know I'm pregnant.
- But you knew he was married.
265
00:14:22,383 --> 00:14:23,634
How could you?
266
00:14:23,759 --> 00:14:25,427
- Did he talk about us?
- No.
267
00:14:25,427 --> 00:14:26,762
Lying bitch.
268
00:14:26,887 --> 00:14:28,681
Am I embarrassing you?
269
00:14:28,681 --> 00:14:30,474
Did you think about how you would...
270
00:14:30,516 --> 00:14:32,726
humiliate me and my kids?
271
00:14:33,519 --> 00:14:34,561
Use a condom
272
00:14:34,561 --> 00:14:36,855
the next time you fuck somebody's husband.
273
00:15:03,841 --> 00:15:05,718
[Zoe] It's been less than 24 hours.
274
00:15:05,759 --> 00:15:07,678
She quits her job in the middle of a shift?
275
00:15:07,719 --> 00:15:09,721
[Janine] She's scared. I'd take off too.
276
00:15:09,763 --> 00:15:10,973
[Zoe] It's Underwood.
277
00:15:11,014 --> 00:15:12,891
He's moving faster than we are.
278
00:15:12,933 --> 00:15:14,184
[Lucas] What about the stripper?
279
00:15:14,226 --> 00:15:16,019
[Janine] Refuses to talk.
280
00:15:16,019 --> 00:15:17,229
[Zoe] Kapeniak?
281
00:15:17,271 --> 00:15:19,690
[Lucas] No current address.
No siblings. Parents are dead.
282
00:15:20,107 --> 00:15:21,775
[Zoe] Rachel's the last loose end.
283
00:15:21,900 --> 00:15:23,318
She must know something else
284
00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:24,820
bigger than the DUI.
285
00:15:24,820 --> 00:15:26,780
Any idea where she went?
286
00:15:26,905 --> 00:15:28,615
I got a PO box in Dupont.
287
00:15:28,615 --> 00:15:29,992
But none of the clerks have seen her.
288
00:15:30,033 --> 00:15:31,618
I could go stake it out, but...
289
00:15:31,743 --> 00:15:33,620
Have you talked to your guy yet?
290
00:15:33,620 --> 00:15:34,788
The next day or two.
291
00:15:34,913 --> 00:15:37,624
He's bringing me the police
report on Russo's suicide.
292
00:15:37,666 --> 00:15:38,876
I'll press him for more.
293
00:15:38,876 --> 00:15:40,252
And what's your next move?
294
00:15:40,502 --> 00:15:42,796
Trying to figure out
how to respond to this.
295
00:15:45,007 --> 00:15:46,842
I got it a couple hours ago.
296
00:15:48,218 --> 00:15:49,803
I think he's setting her up.
297
00:15:49,928 --> 00:15:51,680
I know how to handle him.
298
00:15:51,805 --> 00:15:54,183
- The less he knows, the better.
- We might learn something.
299
00:15:54,224 --> 00:15:55,392
Not with him calling the shots.
300
00:15:55,434 --> 00:15:56,768
I'm choosing the place.
301
00:15:56,768 --> 00:15:58,854
- As if that makes a difference.
- I'm not gonna fuck him,
302
00:15:58,854 --> 00:16:00,439
just talk to him.
303
00:16:05,611 --> 00:16:07,613
I'm gonna go to the bathroom.
304
00:16:09,031 --> 00:16:10,532
- I'm sorry, I shouldn't have...
- That's ok.
305
00:16:10,574 --> 00:16:11,992
No, it's not.
306
00:16:12,534 --> 00:16:15,287
- I just don't want you to be careless.
- I won't be.
307
00:16:16,121 --> 00:16:17,706
You want no life?
308
00:16:18,790 --> 00:16:23,045
You want more work than
three people can handle?
309
00:16:23,086 --> 00:16:26,465
You want a decent chance that you
could be fired within the first month?
310
00:16:27,007 --> 00:16:28,675
If that tempts you,
311
00:16:29,009 --> 00:16:31,511
- we can keep talking.
- None of that intimidates me.
312
00:16:31,595 --> 00:16:33,347
I've been running a congressional district
313
00:16:33,388 --> 00:16:34,431
for the past nine weeks
314
00:16:34,514 --> 00:16:36,058
with zero assistance.
315
00:16:36,183 --> 00:16:38,727
Nobody elected me. Nobody taught me.
316
00:16:38,769 --> 00:16:40,896
I've done it because somebody had to.
317
00:16:40,896 --> 00:16:43,357
What happened was tragic, but
318
00:16:43,398 --> 00:16:45,108
you won't get sympathy from me.
319
00:16:45,150 --> 00:16:46,568
I don't have time for it.
320
00:16:46,693 --> 00:16:48,028
I wouldn't be sitting here
321
00:16:48,070 --> 00:16:50,113
if I wanted a shoulder to cry on.
322
00:16:51,031 --> 00:16:53,033
[knocking]
323
00:16:55,994 --> 00:16:57,454
[Doug] Rachel?
324
00:17:02,751 --> 00:17:05,170
[clicking]
325
00:17:13,011 --> 00:17:14,513
[Rachel] Leave.
326
00:17:26,108 --> 00:17:27,985
I said leave.
327
00:17:29,778 --> 00:17:32,489
- Are you packed?
- I'm not going anywhere.
328
00:17:34,074 --> 00:17:35,701
So you didn't quit today.
329
00:17:36,410 --> 00:17:38,328
I did, but I changed my mind.
330
00:17:39,371 --> 00:17:41,164
This isn't your decision to make.
331
00:17:41,456 --> 00:17:42,791
I'm keeping my job
332
00:17:42,916 --> 00:17:44,501
and I'm keeping this apartment.
333
00:17:44,626 --> 00:17:46,211
No, you're not.
334
00:17:47,170 --> 00:17:50,090
- You promised you'd make this go away.
- And you're starting over...
335
00:17:50,132 --> 00:17:52,718
I already started over. I
don't want to start over again.
336
00:17:53,969 --> 00:17:55,512
I wish you didn't have to.
337
00:17:57,139 --> 00:17:58,557
Get out.
338
00:18:00,183 --> 00:18:01,476
Get out!
339
00:18:01,476 --> 00:18:03,145
Lower your voice.
340
00:18:05,772 --> 00:18:07,399
I'll fucking kill you.
341
00:18:07,774 --> 00:18:09,359
Go ahead.
342
00:18:10,652 --> 00:18:12,487
[gasps]
343
00:18:15,198 --> 00:18:18,076
[panting]
344
00:18:18,452 --> 00:18:21,788
I am the only one who can
protect you. Don't you see that?
345
00:18:23,415 --> 00:18:25,834
You have no idea how much danger you're in.
346
00:18:27,919 --> 00:18:30,505
[sobbing]
347
00:18:42,142 --> 00:18:43,393
Hey.
348
00:18:44,519 --> 00:18:45,896
Start packing.
349
00:18:55,822 --> 00:18:57,657
You know I ask every year.
350
00:18:57,699 --> 00:18:59,493
Nothing, as usual.
351
00:19:02,204 --> 00:19:03,580
I thought we could have dinner.
352
00:19:03,580 --> 00:19:05,832
Only if it's someplace where
nobody will recognize us.
353
00:19:05,832 --> 00:19:07,876
- I don't want anyone...
- I mean at home.
354
00:19:07,918 --> 00:19:09,252
I'll cook something.
355
00:19:10,378 --> 00:19:11,671
No cake.
356
00:19:11,713 --> 00:19:13,089
- No cake.
- No gifts.
357
00:19:13,131 --> 00:19:14,424
No gifts.
358
00:19:14,549 --> 00:19:15,884
I could do that.
359
00:19:15,884 --> 00:19:17,344
How's the lawsuit coming?
360
00:19:17,385 --> 00:19:18,803
We'll be fine.
361
00:19:19,387 --> 00:19:21,514
We'd like to increase
the size of your detail
362
00:19:21,556 --> 00:19:23,934
to full head-of-state
status starting tomorrow.
363
00:19:23,975 --> 00:19:26,228
Well, that won't be happening.
364
00:19:26,561 --> 00:19:27,812
It's good to get a head start,
365
00:19:27,812 --> 00:19:30,148
- so by the time the announcement...
- If these are my last few days
366
00:19:30,190 --> 00:19:31,858
before I never have privacy again.
367
00:19:31,900 --> 00:19:34,527
I intend to savor these
moments for as long as I can.
368
00:19:34,569 --> 00:19:35,904
But, sir, in terms of safety...
369
00:19:35,904 --> 00:19:37,781
Until I'm confirmed as vice president,
370
00:19:37,822 --> 00:19:40,075
security is at my
discretion, is that correct?
371
00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:42,535
- Technically, yes, but...
- Then that's settled.
372
00:19:42,869 --> 00:19:44,955
All right, we'll wait
until the announcement.
373
00:19:45,288 --> 00:19:47,123
Now, assuming the
confirmation goes through,
374
00:19:47,165 --> 00:19:49,209
we'll need to work out
the logistics of moving you
375
00:19:49,251 --> 00:19:50,794
into the Naval Observatory.
376
00:19:50,835 --> 00:19:52,379
That won't be happening either.
377
00:19:52,420 --> 00:19:54,756
The congressman will be
remaining in his town house.
378
00:19:54,798 --> 00:19:57,842
But it doesn't have the
necessary security infrastructure.
379
00:20:00,595 --> 00:20:02,180
Then you'll need to build it.
380
00:20:02,597 --> 00:20:04,349
We're talking blast-proofing,
381
00:20:04,391 --> 00:20:06,226
hard-wired communications networks,
382
00:20:06,268 --> 00:20:09,354
- 24-hour office space...
- Where there's a will, there's a way.
383
00:20:09,813 --> 00:20:12,691
I'll contact you directly
about setting a plan in motion.
384
00:20:18,613 --> 00:20:20,532
Oh, and one last thing before you go.
385
00:20:20,573 --> 00:20:23,576
I'd like to have Edward
Meechum serve on my detail.
386
00:20:23,618 --> 00:20:24,953
He's Capitol Police.
387
00:20:24,995 --> 00:20:27,247
For now. You're about to appoint
him to the Secret Service.
388
00:20:27,247 --> 00:20:29,582
That would require an
accelerated training program.
389
00:20:29,624 --> 00:20:31,501
Sir, we have plenty of qualified agents,
390
00:20:31,543 --> 00:20:33,169
men and women with years of experience.
391
00:20:33,211 --> 00:20:34,629
And I look forward to
working with all of them
392
00:20:34,671 --> 00:20:36,673
as long as Edward Meechum is on the detail.
393
00:20:36,673 --> 00:20:38,425
Thank you very much for your time.
394
00:20:38,508 --> 00:20:40,051
Thank you, sir.
395
00:20:53,023 --> 00:20:55,525
Nancy, have Meechum bring the car around.
396
00:21:08,121 --> 00:21:10,248
You know, last time was the last time.
397
00:21:10,248 --> 00:21:12,500
I know, but this is important.
398
00:21:12,751 --> 00:21:15,754
You keep selling me that
swampland. I'm done buying.
399
00:21:16,671 --> 00:21:17,881
No more.
400
00:21:17,964 --> 00:21:18,590
The cover-up.
401
00:21:18,631 --> 00:21:20,300
You said it went as high as Barney Hull.
402
00:21:20,341 --> 00:21:21,426
That's not what I said.
403
00:21:21,468 --> 00:21:23,511
- When you gave me Rachel Posner's arrest file...
- What I said
404
00:21:23,553 --> 00:21:26,431
is that arrests don't disappear
without a big-ass wand.
405
00:21:26,473 --> 00:21:27,932
That ain't the same as proof.
406
00:21:27,974 --> 00:21:29,809
We think congressional
leadership took part.
407
00:21:29,851 --> 00:21:31,728
- I don't care.
- Yes, you do. I know you do.
408
00:21:31,770 --> 00:21:33,313
No, I really don't.
409
00:21:33,313 --> 00:21:34,689
When you helped me expose the drug ring...
410
00:21:34,731 --> 00:21:35,648
They were dirty street cops
411
00:21:35,648 --> 00:21:38,234
stuffing a few grams in their
pockets. This is different.
412
00:21:38,234 --> 00:21:40,862
- Powerful fucking people.
- Dirty cops are dirty cops.
413
00:21:40,904 --> 00:21:42,572
- You want to protect them?
- I have a pension
414
00:21:42,614 --> 00:21:44,157
- and a family.
- I understand, but...
415
00:21:44,199 --> 00:21:45,533
Don't contact me again.
416
00:22:38,127 --> 00:22:40,338
- Where's your cell?
- Here.
417
00:22:40,380 --> 00:22:41,965
It's not recording.
418
00:22:42,090 --> 00:22:45,301
I need to ask you to delete
all of our phone history.
419
00:22:45,343 --> 00:22:46,511
Why would I do that?
420
00:22:46,552 --> 00:22:48,263
I'm trying to protect both you and I.
421
00:22:48,263 --> 00:22:50,223
I'm not facing prison.
422
00:22:52,267 --> 00:22:54,811
You didn't cover up the arrest?
423
00:22:55,561 --> 00:22:57,981
Was it because you
wanted him to be governor?
424
00:22:58,106 --> 00:23:01,025
No. He was in trouble so I helped.
425
00:23:01,067 --> 00:23:02,986
And later he expressed a desire to run
426
00:23:02,986 --> 00:23:05,238
- and I offered guidance.
- To an alcoholic?
427
00:23:05,363 --> 00:23:07,782
To a sober, recovering alcoholic.
428
00:23:07,824 --> 00:23:10,410
Did you want him to self-sabotage?
429
00:23:10,410 --> 00:23:11,911
Absolutely not.
430
00:23:12,036 --> 00:23:14,247
It got Matthews in the race.
431
00:23:14,372 --> 00:23:17,500
I like to back people who want to succeed.
432
00:23:17,542 --> 00:23:19,294
Take yourself as an example.
433
00:23:19,335 --> 00:23:21,212
You just took advantage of the situation.
434
00:23:21,254 --> 00:23:24,465
Matthews took advantage. I
didn't seek the nomination.
435
00:23:25,633 --> 00:23:28,720
Russo was in the passenger
seat when he died.
436
00:23:31,764 --> 00:23:34,142
That's not entirely accurate.
437
00:23:34,392 --> 00:23:35,977
I saw the police report.
438
00:23:36,019 --> 00:23:38,062
And I spoke to the commissioner directly
439
00:23:38,062 --> 00:23:39,480
because I cared about Peter
440
00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:41,941
and I wanted to know the full story.
441
00:23:42,066 --> 00:23:44,152
He wasn't in the passenger seat?
442
00:23:47,697 --> 00:23:50,283
The passenger door was
open and he was halfway out.
443
00:23:50,283 --> 00:23:51,951
They think that...
444
00:23:53,202 --> 00:23:55,496
he might have had second thoughts.
445
00:23:56,497 --> 00:23:59,375
If I speak to Barney
Hull, he'll confirm that?
446
00:24:00,501 --> 00:24:02,628
What are you suggesting, Zoe?
447
00:24:02,712 --> 00:24:04,005
Maybe there was foul play.
448
00:24:04,047 --> 00:24:05,506
If there was a hint of foul play,
449
00:24:05,506 --> 00:24:07,633
don't you think the police
would have investigated?
450
00:24:07,675 --> 00:24:09,594
The same police that buried his DUI?
451
00:24:09,594 --> 00:24:11,971
And you think I was involved?
452
00:24:12,638 --> 00:24:14,557
There's a connection between you.
453
00:24:14,599 --> 00:24:16,392
Listen to you. You sound ludicrous.
454
00:24:16,392 --> 00:24:17,977
I'm just asking questions.
455
00:24:17,977 --> 00:24:20,146
No, you're connecting
dots that don't exist.
456
00:24:20,188 --> 00:24:23,357
You want me to just walk away,
act as if I don't know anything?
457
00:24:23,399 --> 00:24:25,568
Yes, I got Peter out of a jam.
458
00:24:25,568 --> 00:24:27,820
Yes, I sent him to speak to Kapeniak.
459
00:24:27,862 --> 00:24:29,906
But beyond that, there's nothing to know.
460
00:24:29,947 --> 00:24:32,533
Can you blame me if I find it
difficult to trust you right now?
461
00:24:32,575 --> 00:24:33,743
Trust me or not,
462
00:24:33,868 --> 00:24:36,662
but I'm about to be confirmed
as the vice president.
463
00:24:36,788 --> 00:24:40,208
And our relationship extends
to the Oval Office now.
464
00:24:40,249 --> 00:24:43,461
Don't step out of the
sunlight for no reason.
465
00:24:44,086 --> 00:24:47,423
Let's start this new
chapter with a clean slate.
466
00:24:49,467 --> 00:24:53,429
Now, you sleep on that
and I'll be in touch.
467
00:25:00,269 --> 00:25:02,647
[woman] We'll start with
blood and hormone tests.
468
00:25:02,688 --> 00:25:04,649
Those results should be
back within a few days.
469
00:25:04,649 --> 00:25:06,776
If they're good, we'll
move onto genetic testing
470
00:25:06,818 --> 00:25:08,277
for both you and your husband.
471
00:25:08,319 --> 00:25:10,112
Have you spoken to him yet?
472
00:25:10,154 --> 00:25:13,115
Not yet. I want to do the tests first.
473
00:25:13,157 --> 00:25:15,201
We can do those anytime this week.
474
00:25:15,201 --> 00:25:17,537
I'll have my office call yours.
475
00:25:18,246 --> 00:25:20,748
Oh, I almost forgot. I've
been doing some research
476
00:25:20,790 --> 00:25:23,125
- on the Internet.
- Be careful of the Internet.
477
00:25:23,251 --> 00:25:24,460
[chuckles]
478
00:25:24,544 --> 00:25:25,962
Well, I was looking into
479
00:25:25,962 --> 00:25:28,589
common issues associated
with post-40 pregnancies
480
00:25:28,631 --> 00:25:31,467
and this drug came up, but
there wasn't much on it. It's
481
00:25:31,717 --> 00:25:34,679
- Cruvenae...
- Cruvenae-tenuestrin.
482
00:25:34,804 --> 00:25:36,222
You probably haven't found much
483
00:25:36,264 --> 00:25:38,224
because it's still in the beta stage.
484
00:25:38,349 --> 00:25:39,976
And what does it do?
485
00:25:39,976 --> 00:25:42,853
It helps maximize blood
flow to the placenta.
486
00:25:42,979 --> 00:25:46,691
Until CVT, there hasn't been
any viable drug for that.
487
00:25:46,983 --> 00:25:48,651
The jury's still out.
488
00:25:48,776 --> 00:25:52,446
But placental insufficiency
affects women of all ages.
489
00:25:52,488 --> 00:25:54,532
I wouldn't worry about it for now.
490
00:25:54,574 --> 00:25:57,535
That's putting the cart
way before the horse.
491
00:25:58,578 --> 00:26:01,455
[water running]
492
00:26:02,373 --> 00:26:04,709
- [man on TV] You know,
- Matthews has this locked up,
493
00:26:04,750 --> 00:26:06,627
but conservatives on the Hill are saying
494
00:26:06,669 --> 00:26:08,296
he's gonna return to Harrisburg
495
00:26:08,337 --> 00:26:11,215
with the same myopic
deficit growing mentality...
496
00:26:11,590 --> 00:26:14,844
[continues indistinctly]
497
00:26:20,850 --> 00:26:24,020
As to who's gonna replace
Matthews when he wins...
498
00:26:24,145 --> 00:26:28,065
- Can I at least turn off the overhead?
- Of course.
499
00:26:29,817 --> 00:26:32,194
Do you want me to go work downstairs?
500
00:26:32,194 --> 00:26:35,323
No, that's fine. Just make some room.
501
00:26:41,495 --> 00:26:43,873
You haven't said a word.
502
00:26:44,498 --> 00:26:45,958
No.
503
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:48,127
Where does that leave us?
504
00:26:49,420 --> 00:26:51,797
I'm fully prepared.
505
00:26:52,131 --> 00:26:55,092
And I have been for some time.
506
00:27:03,893 --> 00:27:07,229
I know you'll do whatever
you think is best.
507
00:27:10,858 --> 00:27:12,526
But Underwood confirmed it.
508
00:27:12,526 --> 00:27:14,361
He's gonna be tapped for VP.
509
00:27:14,403 --> 00:27:15,529
That doesn't get us any closer.
510
00:27:15,571 --> 00:27:17,823
We know that Russo cleared
the way for Matthews.
511
00:27:17,823 --> 00:27:19,825
It reinforces the theory,
it doesn't give us proof.
512
00:27:19,867 --> 00:27:22,203
We can't go after the
guy for playing dirty.
513
00:27:22,203 --> 00:27:24,997
And that's not news. Half the
fuckers in Congress play dirty.
514
00:27:24,997 --> 00:27:27,708
He propped up a sham candidate
just to take him down.
515
00:27:27,750 --> 00:27:29,001
Nobody forced Russo to drink that night.
516
00:27:29,043 --> 00:27:31,420
- The guy was an alcoholic.
- We don't know what happened that night,
517
00:27:31,462 --> 00:27:34,131
other than three days
later, he killed himself.
518
00:27:35,132 --> 00:27:37,551
Are you gonna contact him again?
519
00:27:37,843 --> 00:27:38,886
I don't know.
520
00:27:38,928 --> 00:27:41,263
We need to slow down, take
a step back and reevaluate...
521
00:27:41,263 --> 00:27:42,556
We already let Rachel slip away.
522
00:27:42,556 --> 00:27:44,141
There's no point until we have more.
523
00:27:44,183 --> 00:27:46,811
- We should keep him guessing, not...
- Have more from where? From who?
524
00:27:46,852 --> 00:27:48,813
I don't know. We should exhaust all options
525
00:27:48,854 --> 00:27:51,357
before Zoe reaches back out to
Underwood. It looks desperate.
526
00:27:51,398 --> 00:27:53,818
We are up against a brick
wall. And unless Under...
527
00:27:53,818 --> 00:27:55,611
Zoe.
528
00:27:55,861 --> 00:27:58,364
Hey. Hey.
529
00:27:59,198 --> 00:28:01,325
Hey.
530
00:28:01,367 --> 00:28:03,035
I just need to think.
531
00:28:03,077 --> 00:28:06,205
- Well, let's think about it together.
- I'll call you tomorrow.
532
00:28:08,290 --> 00:28:09,750
Freddy?
533
00:28:09,750 --> 00:28:10,960
Yeah, Frank?
534
00:28:11,001 --> 00:28:12,336
Was there something different
535
00:28:12,378 --> 00:28:14,755
about these ribs this morning?
536
00:28:15,339 --> 00:28:17,341
Better or worse?
537
00:28:17,466 --> 00:28:20,177
I didn't think that they
could get any better,
538
00:28:20,219 --> 00:28:22,930
but these were something special.
539
00:28:23,264 --> 00:28:24,390
Well,
540
00:28:25,140 --> 00:28:27,518
tried a new butcher.
541
00:28:27,935 --> 00:28:29,728
Slow-bleeds his hogs.
542
00:28:29,728 --> 00:28:32,815
- It ain't legal, but...
- Well, I won't tell anyone.
543
00:28:32,815 --> 00:28:35,359
I don't know if I'm gonna go back to him.
544
00:28:35,484 --> 00:28:37,236
Went out to his shop.
545
00:28:37,278 --> 00:28:40,656
He's got a room in the back
where he does it. Soundproof.
546
00:28:40,698 --> 00:28:43,576
- A whole setup.
- Why soundproof?
547
00:28:43,867 --> 00:28:45,995
'Cause of how they scream.
548
00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:48,330
They can smell it comin'.
549
00:28:48,455 --> 00:28:50,833
You stick that pipe in their throat,
550
00:28:50,958 --> 00:28:52,960
next ten minutes is hell.
551
00:28:53,085 --> 00:28:54,420
Bust your fucking eardrums.
552
00:28:54,461 --> 00:28:58,090
Now, the humane way to
do it is to make it quick.
553
00:28:58,674 --> 00:29:01,635
Bring out a bucket of slop
like it's feeding time,
554
00:29:01,677 --> 00:29:06,473
then bam, shovel right
to the base of the head.
555
00:29:06,724 --> 00:29:08,601
No screamin'.
556
00:29:09,852 --> 00:29:13,856
Now, he's willing to open up the
race, but Birch was very clear:
557
00:29:13,897 --> 00:29:15,649
if he can't endorse
anyone, you can't either.
558
00:29:15,691 --> 00:29:17,026
That's fair.
559
00:29:17,067 --> 00:29:18,611
You really want Buchwalter to win?
560
00:29:18,652 --> 00:29:21,572
I want the best man to win.
561
00:29:21,780 --> 00:29:24,450
That sounds like a cagey,
bullshit non-answer to me.
562
00:29:24,450 --> 00:29:27,244
I'm on the sidelines for this one, Terry.
563
00:29:27,536 --> 00:29:29,997
You're never on the sidelines, Frank.
564
00:29:30,372 --> 00:29:33,292
I'll see you around.
565
00:29:35,627 --> 00:29:38,172
[phone dings]
566
00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:53,437
Claire,
567
00:29:53,479 --> 00:29:55,981
you wouldn't return my calls.
568
00:29:56,273 --> 00:29:57,775
I'll be back.
569
00:29:58,233 --> 00:30:02,404
My attorney said that I
shouldn't be in contact with you.
570
00:30:03,113 --> 00:30:05,824
Blue Cross said my insurance was canceled.
571
00:30:05,949 --> 00:30:07,743
Oh?
572
00:30:08,494 --> 00:30:10,746
The severance package
573
00:30:10,746 --> 00:30:13,415
gave me health coverage for up to a year.
574
00:30:13,999 --> 00:30:16,335
That sounds right.
575
00:30:16,627 --> 00:30:19,254
So there must be some kind of mistake.
576
00:30:19,546 --> 00:30:22,299
Well, you'll have to talk
to the insurance company.
577
00:30:22,299 --> 00:30:24,760
I did. They said it was terminated.
578
00:30:24,802 --> 00:30:27,054
They can't reinstate it
without the employer's approval.
579
00:30:27,096 --> 00:30:29,264
And you want me to get involved?
580
00:30:30,015 --> 00:30:32,309
There's medication that I need
581
00:30:32,434 --> 00:30:35,187
that I can't get unless
it goes through my HMO.
582
00:30:35,312 --> 00:30:36,563
Oh, I'm well aware.
583
00:30:36,605 --> 00:30:38,899
I reviewed your records.
584
00:30:39,399 --> 00:30:41,568
- What?
- You signed a consent form.
585
00:30:41,693 --> 00:30:43,737
No, I didn't.
586
00:30:49,159 --> 00:30:50,536
You forged my signature?
587
00:30:50,577 --> 00:30:53,288
Did a Mrs. Applebaum pay you a visit?
588
00:30:56,792 --> 00:30:58,168
You realize
589
00:30:58,168 --> 00:31:00,587
- what you're doing is...
- Civil,
590
00:31:00,712 --> 00:31:02,673
- not criminal.
- Have you thought this out?
591
00:31:02,714 --> 00:31:05,175
- Because when we go to court...
- You mean six months from now?
592
00:31:05,217 --> 00:31:07,553
You're expecting in four, no?
593
00:31:07,678 --> 00:31:10,264
That's four months without
the medicine you need.
594
00:31:13,976 --> 00:31:15,602
I'm willing to let your child
595
00:31:15,602 --> 00:31:18,522
wither and die inside you
if that's what's required.
596
00:31:18,647 --> 00:31:20,899
But neither of us wants that.
597
00:31:22,317 --> 00:31:25,946
Now tell me, am I really the
sort of enemy you want to make?
598
00:31:26,947 --> 00:31:29,533
But here's the alternative:
599
00:31:30,868 --> 00:31:33,203
this office, this staff,
600
00:31:35,956 --> 00:31:38,125
The CWI could be yours,
601
00:31:38,166 --> 00:31:41,044
and you and me, we wash
our hands of each other.
602
00:31:41,545 --> 00:31:43,338
- You're trying to buy me.
- No.
603
00:31:43,380 --> 00:31:45,883
When we first met, I
promised to empower you.
604
00:31:46,008 --> 00:31:47,384
I'm fulfilling that promise.
605
00:31:47,426 --> 00:31:49,636
- How do I get screwed?
- You don't. I resign.
606
00:31:49,678 --> 00:31:51,680
You take my place.
607
00:31:52,890 --> 00:31:55,142
- No strings?
- None.
608
00:31:55,434 --> 00:31:57,978
[man on radio] Exit polls have
Jim Matthews winning by anywhere...
609
00:31:57,978 --> 00:31:59,897
from a nine to 12
percent margin of victory.
610
00:31:59,897 --> 00:32:02,065
- Swofford is expected to make...
- Hello?
611
00:32:02,107 --> 00:32:03,984
- [woman] Mrs. Underwood?
- Yes?
612
00:32:03,984 --> 00:32:06,361
Hi, I'm calling from Dr. Larson's office
613
00:32:06,403 --> 00:32:07,863
to confirm your 10 a.m. tomorrow
614
00:32:07,904 --> 00:32:10,240
for the blood and urine tests.
615
00:32:12,868 --> 00:32:14,745
I can't come.
616
00:32:14,870 --> 00:32:16,872
Well, if tomorrow doesn't work,
617
00:32:16,955 --> 00:32:18,165
we can reschedule for Thursday,
618
00:32:18,206 --> 00:32:21,585
- or even Monday.
- No, I won't be rescheduling.
619
00:32:21,627 --> 00:32:24,796
Please tell Dr. Larson I
appreciate all her consultation,
620
00:32:24,838 --> 00:32:27,674
but I've put a great
deal of thought into this
621
00:32:27,716 --> 00:32:30,552
and I won't be pursuing any further tests.
622
00:32:30,594 --> 00:32:32,512
Thank you.
623
00:34:05,105 --> 00:34:07,691
[Frank] Have you thought
about what we discussed?
624
00:34:07,983 --> 00:34:11,236
I think you're right. We
should start with a clean state.
625
00:34:12,279 --> 00:34:14,739
What about our text messages?
626
00:34:19,327 --> 00:34:22,289
[phone beeps]
627
00:34:23,582 --> 00:34:25,667
And the contact.
628
00:34:28,503 --> 00:34:31,047
[phone beeps]
629
00:34:33,049 --> 00:34:35,802
- Are we good?
- Yeah.
630
00:34:35,802 --> 00:34:38,054
We can put all this
other nonsense behind us
631
00:34:38,096 --> 00:34:40,974
and trust one another and
continue to help one another?
632
00:34:41,016 --> 00:34:43,310
I'd like that.
633
00:34:43,602 --> 00:34:45,604
Then consider the slate clean.
634
00:34:45,729 --> 00:34:47,731
Answer me one thing.
635
00:34:47,856 --> 00:34:49,399
The passenger seat?
636
00:34:49,524 --> 00:34:51,359
You said Russo was trying to get out,
637
00:34:51,401 --> 00:34:52,986
but there was nothing abnormal...
638
00:34:53,028 --> 00:34:54,613
- I thought we just agreed...
- I want to believe you,
639
00:34:54,654 --> 00:34:56,031
But I need details,
640
00:34:56,031 --> 00:34:58,033
more than what you're sharing.
641
00:34:58,033 --> 00:34:59,200
What's your question?
642
00:34:59,242 --> 00:35:00,952
The night Russo fell off the wagon,
643
00:35:00,994 --> 00:35:02,621
he was at a fund-raiser,
644
00:35:02,662 --> 00:35:05,916
- the McNeally Cancer Institute.
- All in the police report.
645
00:35:08,251 --> 00:35:11,338
Rachel Posner was at the hotel that night.
646
00:35:11,463 --> 00:35:13,465
Who's that?
647
00:35:13,506 --> 00:35:15,842
The call girl who was with
Russo when he was arrested.
648
00:35:15,884 --> 00:35:17,928
I didn't know her name.
649
00:35:18,720 --> 00:35:21,056
She disappeared, Francis.
650
00:35:21,723 --> 00:35:23,016
When?
651
00:35:23,058 --> 00:35:24,601
Don't act surprised.
652
00:35:24,643 --> 00:35:26,478
I showed the bellmen a photo.
653
00:35:26,603 --> 00:35:28,647
One of them remembers seeing her.
654
00:35:28,772 --> 00:35:32,233
The girl's a prostitute. I'm
sure she frequents many hotels.
655
00:35:32,359 --> 00:35:34,653
But that hotel on that night?
656
00:35:34,694 --> 00:35:37,656
Well, now you sound
like Ms. Skorsky talking.
657
00:35:38,365 --> 00:35:40,575
I haven't discussed this with anyone.
658
00:35:40,700 --> 00:35:42,369
I wanted to ask you first.
659
00:35:42,494 --> 00:35:44,704
I have no idea what happened that night
660
00:35:44,704 --> 00:35:46,706
except that Peter started drinking again.
661
00:35:46,748 --> 00:35:50,126
I don't know who was or
wasn't there. I wish I was.
662
00:35:50,168 --> 00:35:51,795
Maybe I could've stopped him.
663
00:35:51,920 --> 00:35:53,922
Do you know where Rachel is?
664
00:35:53,963 --> 00:35:57,425
- Listen to what I am saying.
- I'm trying to protect us both.
665
00:35:57,634 --> 00:35:59,219
These are questions anyone could ask.
666
00:35:59,219 --> 00:36:01,763
But no one is except you.
667
00:36:01,888 --> 00:36:04,265
I can't imagine what you're after.
668
00:36:04,307 --> 00:36:06,351
I took a chance,
669
00:36:06,393 --> 00:36:09,896
showed up at your house and
placed myself at your feet.
670
00:36:10,021 --> 00:36:11,940
Crossed ethical lines,
671
00:36:11,981 --> 00:36:14,901
professionally, physically,
672
00:36:15,402 --> 00:36:17,946
and I hold myself accountable for that.
673
00:36:18,154 --> 00:36:20,615
Those were my choices
and I can live with them.
674
00:36:22,117 --> 00:36:23,493
I'd like to move forward,
675
00:36:23,535 --> 00:36:26,955
but I need to know exactly
what I was a part of, that...
676
00:36:28,415 --> 00:36:30,750
that I wasn't a part of someone's...
677
00:36:33,169 --> 00:36:35,797
Finish your thought.
678
00:36:37,882 --> 00:36:40,343
A part of someone's murder.
679
00:36:40,468 --> 00:36:41,719
Jesus.

Damn.

- Come in.
- I've been calling you.
690
00:39:34,267 --> 00:39:36,644
Come here.
691
00:39:40,189 --> 00:39:43,860
Come in. Sit down. Um...
692
00:39:43,985 --> 00:39:49,824
You want something? Some water or... juice?
693
00:39:55,663 --> 00:39:57,707
You going somewhere?
694
00:39:58,749 --> 00:40:00,585
Hey. You going somewhere?
695
00:40:00,585 --> 00:40:03,004
To my mom's. In Ithaca.
696
00:40:03,796 --> 00:40:05,923
- What?
- I'm leaving.
697
00:40:05,923 --> 00:40:09,177
No, no. No, no, no. No. No way.
698
00:40:09,302 --> 00:40:11,512
- We have nothing.
- Are you giving up on this?
699
00:40:11,637 --> 00:40:13,556
There are only three people in the world
700
00:40:13,556 --> 00:40:15,933
that know what he has done,
and one of them is gone.
701
00:40:16,058 --> 00:40:17,185
If we had anything,
702
00:40:17,226 --> 00:40:19,103
Lucas, any hard evidence,
703
00:40:19,145 --> 00:40:20,646
or even a fucking quote
704
00:40:20,646 --> 00:40:22,440
from a source that would
go on record for us,
705
00:40:22,440 --> 00:40:23,608
that would be one thing,
706
00:40:23,608 --> 00:40:24,942
but we're grasping,
707
00:40:24,942 --> 00:40:26,694
and he is not fucking around.
708
00:40:26,819 --> 00:40:30,031
You were the one who
told Zoe to pursue this.
709
00:40:30,156 --> 00:40:31,407
She told me what you said:
710
00:40:31,407 --> 00:40:34,368
"The only stories that mattered were
the ones that scared you to death."
711
00:40:34,410 --> 00:40:36,370
Ok, this isn't just death threats!
712
00:40:36,495 --> 00:40:37,914
This is real!
713
00:40:38,206 --> 00:40:40,917
He doesn't know about
you, but he knows about me.
714
00:40:41,042 --> 00:40:42,668
These were in my mailbox.
715
00:40:42,710 --> 00:40:44,629
No return address.
716
00:40:44,670 --> 00:40:46,756
- He took these of her?
- Who else?
717
00:40:46,881 --> 00:40:48,299
You can keep them,
718
00:40:48,341 --> 00:40:50,176
- but I don't think they're gonna help you.
- We need to stop him.
719
00:40:50,218 --> 00:40:52,303
Sick fucking shit.
720
00:40:52,428 --> 00:40:56,182
Janine, you cannot run away from this.
721
00:40:56,224 --> 00:40:57,975
My entire career,
722
00:40:58,017 --> 00:41:00,978
I have always chosen the tough stories.
723
00:41:01,103 --> 00:41:03,022
I have been fearless.
724
00:41:04,023 --> 00:41:05,983
But you know what?
725
00:41:06,108 --> 00:41:09,195
I'm really fucking scared this time.
726
00:41:09,528 --> 00:41:11,072
He's got power,
727
00:41:11,113 --> 00:41:12,531
he's got a lot to lose,
728
00:41:12,573 --> 00:41:14,575
- and right now he is winning.
- Please, I need your help, please...
729
00:41:14,617 --> 00:41:17,578
Just wake the fuck up, Lucas!
730
00:41:22,208 --> 00:41:25,169
[door opens, shuts]
731
00:41:27,713 --> 00:41:31,050
[sobbing]
732
00:41:35,638 --> 00:41:38,766
[man on TV] The incident occurred
at approximately 8 p.m. last night
733
00:41:38,808 --> 00:41:40,017
on the northbound tracks
734
00:41:40,059 --> 00:41:42,186
of the Cathedral Heights Metro station.
735
00:41:42,186 --> 00:41:44,605
DC Police have ruled the death an accident.
736
00:41:44,647 --> 00:41:48,317
Zoe Barnes was a senior
contributor at Slugline.com.
737
00:41:48,359 --> 00:41:50,861
Previously, she worked
at the Washington Herald
738
00:41:50,861 --> 00:41:53,906
as a metro reporter and
political correspondent.
739
00:41:53,990 --> 00:41:56,117
Barnes broke several major stories,
740
00:41:56,158 --> 00:41:59,912
including an early draft of the
Education Reform and Achievement Act
741
00:41:59,954 --> 00:42:01,831
as well as a college newspaper article
742
00:42:01,872 --> 00:42:03,958
that derailed Senator Michael Kerns'
743
00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:06,002
nomination for Secretary of State.
744
00:42:06,419 --> 00:42:08,754
[reporter continues]
745
00:42:27,398 --> 00:42:29,859
What did you think of the files?
746
00:42:29,984 --> 00:42:32,862
- There's plenty to work with.
- Did you look at your own?
747
00:42:32,862 --> 00:42:35,072
There was nothing there.
748
00:42:36,323 --> 00:42:39,577
- Should there be?
- No.
749
00:42:40,077 --> 00:42:41,328
Even if you're lying,
750
00:42:41,370 --> 00:42:43,164
the fact I haven't been
able to find anything
751
00:42:43,205 --> 00:42:45,207
tells me you're very good
at covering your tracks.
752
00:42:45,249 --> 00:42:47,042
That's valuable to me.
753
00:42:47,084 --> 00:42:48,461
Here's our battleground.
754
00:42:48,461 --> 00:42:50,504
One hundred and 13 votes.
755
00:42:50,755 --> 00:42:52,882
You have the skeletons.
756
00:42:55,551 --> 00:42:57,386
If I lose,
757
00:42:57,511 --> 00:43:00,723
- they'll come after me.
- That's a risk you'll have to take.
758
00:43:01,682 --> 00:43:04,059
How do I know you're not just using me?
759
00:43:04,101 --> 00:43:06,103
Throwing a wrench into someone else's bid?
760
00:43:06,145 --> 00:43:07,605
That's another risk.
761
00:43:07,605 --> 00:43:10,691
The alternative is you wait ten years.
762
00:43:10,816 --> 00:43:12,610
You chose me for a reason.
763
00:43:13,402 --> 00:43:15,696
I'd like to know what it is.
764
00:43:16,197 --> 00:43:18,491
All right.
765
00:43:19,200 --> 00:43:21,619
How many missile strikes did you launch?
766
00:43:21,619 --> 00:43:24,455
- But you did it anyway.
- Enough to keep me awake at night.
767
00:43:24,497 --> 00:43:25,414
Yes, I did.
768
00:43:25,456 --> 00:43:27,833
- How many women and children?
- Too many.
769
00:43:27,958 --> 00:43:29,668
And you launched those missiles knowing
770
00:43:29,668 --> 00:43:31,003
all those innocent people would die.
771
00:43:31,045 --> 00:43:33,088
I had orders to eliminate the enemy.
772
00:43:33,130 --> 00:43:35,925
Which you carried out
expertly and efficiently.
773
00:43:36,842 --> 00:43:38,761
Have you ever killed anyone?
774
00:43:39,845 --> 00:43:41,180
No.
775
00:43:41,222 --> 00:43:44,975
I watched. Apartment buildings,
entire villages... gone,
776
00:43:45,017 --> 00:43:46,810
like they were never there.
777
00:43:47,186 --> 00:43:49,897
I'd prefer not to talk about
it, if that's all right.
778
00:43:50,356 --> 00:43:55,444
You did what needed to be done
and that's why I chose you, Jackie.
779
00:43:56,195 --> 00:43:58,030
Service background,
780
00:43:58,072 --> 00:43:59,573
clean history,
781
00:43:59,615 --> 00:44:01,909
photogenic. The whole package.
782
00:44:02,034 --> 00:44:04,620
But more importantly...
783
00:44:06,497 --> 00:44:08,874
ruthless pragmatism.
784
00:44:08,999 --> 00:44:11,710
Are we working together or not?
785
00:44:13,420 --> 00:44:16,215
Any public or private
endorsements for Buchwalter,
786
00:44:16,215 --> 00:44:17,174
I come out for Webb.
787
00:44:17,174 --> 00:44:19,301
I'll stay out of the
fray. I give you my word.
788
00:44:19,301 --> 00:44:20,511
Same goes for you, Terry.
789
00:44:20,552 --> 00:44:22,054
All right.
790
00:44:26,308 --> 00:44:28,477
Thank you, Christina.
791
00:44:30,646 --> 00:44:32,815
- Gentlemen.
- Mr. President,
792
00:44:32,856 --> 00:44:35,109
how was Pennsylvania?
793
00:44:43,701 --> 00:44:45,327
[keys jingling]
794
00:44:45,327 --> 00:44:47,454
[door opens]
795
00:44:57,715 --> 00:44:59,675
You like Indian?
796
00:45:20,446 --> 00:45:22,740
[Meechum] Sir? I've seen the news.
797
00:45:24,658 --> 00:45:26,869
I know she was close to you.
798
00:45:29,246 --> 00:45:31,749
Terrible tragedy.
799
00:45:32,583 --> 00:45:35,252
I spoke to Special Agent
Rockland today, sir.
800
00:45:35,544 --> 00:45:37,463
I begin my training next week.
801
00:45:37,713 --> 00:45:39,590
Very good.
802
00:45:44,595 --> 00:45:46,263
I know it's a day late.
803
00:45:46,263 --> 00:45:48,098
Hope it isn't inappropriate,
804
00:45:48,140 --> 00:45:50,684
but I wanted to give you this.
805
00:45:54,605 --> 00:45:56,440
Thank you, Meechum.
806
00:46:06,283 --> 00:46:07,785
That was very nice of Edward.
807
00:46:07,910 --> 00:46:10,788
He shouldn't have spent
this sort of money on me.
808
00:46:10,996 --> 00:46:12,706
I've opened some wine downstairs.
809
00:46:12,748 --> 00:46:14,833
I'll be down in a minute.
810
00:46:18,462 --> 00:46:21,340
Did you think I'd forgotten you?
811
00:46:22,007 --> 00:46:24,134
Perhaps you hoped I had.
812
00:46:24,259 --> 00:46:27,012
Don't waste a breath mourning Ms. Barnes.
813
00:46:27,012 --> 00:46:29,264
Every kitten grows up to be a cat.
814
00:46:29,306 --> 00:46:31,266
They seem so harmless at first,
815
00:46:31,266 --> 00:46:34,686
small, quiet, lapping
up their saucer of milk.
816
00:46:34,811 --> 00:46:36,980
But once their claws get long enough,
817
00:46:37,022 --> 00:46:38,774
they draw blood,
818
00:46:38,899 --> 00:46:41,485
sometimes from the hand that feeds them.
819
00:46:41,610 --> 00:46:44,613
For those of us climbing to
the top of the food chain,
820
00:46:44,613 --> 00:46:46,573
there can be no mercy.
821
00:46:46,615 --> 00:46:48,534
There is but one rule:
822
00:46:48,534 --> 00:46:52,037
hunt or be hunted.
823
00:46:53,413 --> 00:46:55,582
Welcome back.
