1
00:00:02,127 --> 00:00:03,993
Previously on House of Cards...
2
00:00:04,087 --> 00:00:05,794
What did the girl say to you?
3
00:00:05,881 --> 00:00:08,589
She said she hopes I die,
4
00:00:08,675 --> 00:00:10,211
and that you become the President.
5
00:00:10,302 --> 00:00:12,669
I want a woman in the White House.
6
00:00:12,763 --> 00:00:16,803
We need you to implicate yourself
in the death of Zoe Barnes.
7
00:00:16,934 --> 00:00:19,517
I don't think your husband
should be front and center.
8
00:00:19,645 --> 00:00:21,728
What I want is for Francis Underwood
to go to jail.
9
00:00:21,813 --> 00:00:23,145
I'm guilty.
10
00:00:23,232 --> 00:00:24,473
I killed Zoe Barnes.
11
00:00:24,566 --> 00:00:28,810
You have all used me far long enough.
12
00:00:28,904 --> 00:00:32,568
So, I shall resign the office
of President of the United States.
13
00:00:32,658 --> 00:00:34,302
You've made me look
absolutely ridiculous...
14
00:00:34,326 --> 00:00:35,942
- No!
- ...ill-prepared and ignorant.
15
00:00:36,036 --> 00:00:39,120
We're a few hours away
from my official resignation,
16
00:00:39,206 --> 00:00:41,914
and you still have not agreed
to pardon me.
17
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:44,037
I was going over our list
for Vice President.
18
00:00:44,127 --> 00:00:47,791
A lot of the people I spoke to
suggested me.
19
00:00:50,217 --> 00:00:54,086
It's hard to know
who to trust these days.
20
00:00:54,388 --> 00:00:56,129
If she doesn't pardon me,
21
00:00:57,891 --> 00:01:00,304
I'll kill her.
22
00:01:00,394 --> 00:01:01,680
My turn.
23
00:01:05,566 --> 00:01:09,185
Stop. Claire Hale. Stop!
24
00:01:16,535 --> 00:01:18,197
"I'd like to fry her eyeballs.
25
00:01:18,287 --> 00:01:21,951
"If no one else steps up
to kill the President, I will.
26
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:25,750
"I'd enjoy it."
A tweet out of North Dakota.
27
00:01:25,836 --> 00:01:28,249
What else?
28
00:01:28,338 --> 00:01:31,172
"God never intended a woman
to rule this land.
29
00:01:31,258 --> 00:01:34,968
"She is the Antichrist. And, a Jew."
30
00:01:35,053 --> 00:01:37,921
A Jew?
Do we really need to hear all of this?
31
00:01:38,015 --> 00:01:39,802
Yes.
32
00:01:39,891 --> 00:01:44,477
An unpublished editorial.
Someone pointing a gun at your likeness.
33
00:01:44,563 --> 00:01:48,682
Lots of other online stuff, including
34
00:01:48,775 --> 00:01:52,109
- a contest...
- For?
35
00:01:52,195 --> 00:01:55,313
For the most creative way to kill you.
36
00:01:55,407 --> 00:01:59,617
- And the winner?
- Rather not say, ma'am.
37
00:01:59,703 --> 00:02:03,492
I want to hear.
Just hand me the report, Rick.
38
00:02:05,542 --> 00:02:08,706
It involves, essentially, skinning you.
39
00:02:08,795 --> 00:02:10,582
Cutting your body into dozens of pieces
40
00:02:10,672 --> 00:02:13,130
and arranging them in the shape
of the American flag.
41
00:02:16,053 --> 00:02:20,969
Flesh for the white stripes,
blood for the red.
42
00:02:21,058 --> 00:02:22,845
What else?
43
00:02:22,934 --> 00:02:25,722
Lot of threats
involving the C-word, ma'am.
44
00:02:25,812 --> 00:02:29,977
Lots and lots
of the C-word, unfortunately.
45
00:02:30,067 --> 00:02:31,933
You mean "Claire"?
46
00:02:32,027 --> 00:02:34,770
It's a long list.
If you really want me to, I'll...
47
00:02:34,863 --> 00:02:37,776
Listen, I am not the first President
to face threats.
48
00:02:37,908 --> 00:02:40,525
I know with Francis, sometimes,
there were several a day.
49
00:02:40,619 --> 00:02:43,862
Is it about the same?
What we're dealing with here?
50
00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:47,908
It's significantly up.
51
00:02:48,001 --> 00:02:49,367
- By how much?
- There are roughly
52
00:02:49,461 --> 00:02:52,829
four times as many threats on
any given day since you took office.
53
00:02:52,923 --> 00:02:55,916
Now, it's twice that,
since Francis died.
54
00:02:57,552 --> 00:02:59,544
I thought everyone loves a widow.
55
00:02:59,638 --> 00:03:01,925
Well, not if she's also
Commander-in-Chief, I guess.
56
00:03:02,015 --> 00:03:04,098
These are not rational people,
Madam President.
57
00:03:04,184 --> 00:03:07,052
But, ma'am, as far as today's threat,
58
00:03:07,145 --> 00:03:08,665
regarding your first
scheduled appearance...
59
00:03:08,689 --> 00:03:10,772
We're canceling the appearance.
60
00:03:12,526 --> 00:03:15,985
We're not canceling.
It's a military base.
61
00:03:16,071 --> 00:03:18,529
That's got to be the safest place
on Earth for a President.
62
00:03:18,615 --> 00:03:21,358
An anonymous soldier
has made a serious threat...
63
00:03:21,451 --> 00:03:24,013
To shoot me in the cunt on behalf of
the United States of America.
64
00:03:24,037 --> 00:03:26,324
Yes, Mark, I heard.
The threat's unconfirmed.
65
00:03:26,415 --> 00:03:28,135
He says he's among those
shipping out today.
66
00:03:28,208 --> 00:03:30,269
- Anyone can claim that.
- And that you have no right
67
00:03:30,293 --> 00:03:33,252
waging war in Syria. You, in particular.
I think we stay away.
68
00:03:33,338 --> 00:03:34,499
Rick, don't you agree?
69
00:03:34,589 --> 00:03:37,548
There's no proof the threat
is credible. Isn't that right, Rick?
70
00:03:37,634 --> 00:03:39,466
Our Intelligence Division
is investigating,
71
00:03:39,553 --> 00:03:42,842
and the advance team is already there,
but it'll take at least a day
72
00:03:42,931 --> 00:03:44,409
- to comb through that base.
- At least a day.
73
00:03:44,433 --> 00:03:47,471
I think what the Vice President says
is the best course.
74
00:03:47,561 --> 00:03:49,143
Maybe by tomorrow, you could...
75
00:03:49,229 --> 00:03:53,348
- Tomorrow is the 5th of July.
- Yes, ma'am.
76
00:03:53,483 --> 00:03:55,520
So, what do you suggest I do?
77
00:03:55,610 --> 00:03:57,476
Wish the nation
a happy belated birthday?
78
00:03:57,571 --> 00:04:00,439
- Our only concern is your safety.
- We're not canceling.
79
00:04:01,366 --> 00:04:04,484
I am sending those soldiers
onto a battlefield.
80
00:04:04,578 --> 00:04:06,695
The first female President
of the United States
81
00:04:06,788 --> 00:04:10,873
is not gonna keep her mouth shut
on the Fourth of fucking July.
82
00:05:50,392 --> 00:05:53,009
Lieutenant General Gallagher
would understand.
83
00:05:53,103 --> 00:05:57,222
- I could appear instead. Speak for you.
- Stop.
84
00:05:59,776 --> 00:06:02,314
Is it my safety that concerns you,
85
00:06:02,404 --> 00:06:04,521
or my potential endorsement
of Gallagher?
86
00:06:04,614 --> 00:06:06,981
Your safety, first, of course.
87
00:06:07,075 --> 00:06:09,533
But singling her out,
that's a provocation.
88
00:06:09,619 --> 00:06:12,908
And so? I can't provoke them?
89
00:06:12,998 --> 00:06:15,456
You're forwarding a candidate
the Shepherds are against,
90
00:06:15,542 --> 00:06:19,161
in their home state,
after months of negotiation.
91
00:06:19,254 --> 00:06:21,997
This is not a negotiation,
this is an ultimatum.
92
00:06:22,090 --> 00:06:24,753
Sign the bill, or what? Or what, Mark?
93
00:06:28,221 --> 00:06:30,508
When Francis was looking
to finance his foundation,
94
00:06:30,599 --> 00:06:33,182
why did you point him
towards Bill and Annette?
95
00:06:33,310 --> 00:06:38,351
- I didn't. Raymond Tusk arranged it.
- Or maybe they reached out to him?
96
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:43,231
I don't remember. What does it matter?
They're working with you now.
97
00:06:45,113 --> 00:06:47,275
I need to meet
with the Shepherds directly.
98
00:06:47,365 --> 00:06:48,401
Madam President?
99
00:06:48,491 --> 00:06:50,403
I'll see them before
my appearance at the base.
100
00:06:50,493 --> 00:06:52,530
- You can't.
- I what?
101
00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:58,659
- I'll let them know.
- Thank you.
102
00:07:03,840 --> 00:07:05,502
You're due at the base by 4:45,
103
00:07:05,592 --> 00:07:07,879
which will have you back here by 8:30.
104
00:07:07,969 --> 00:07:10,211
The fireworks show
begins right after 9:00.
105
00:07:10,305 --> 00:07:14,925
And the Examiner would love
your okay on the photos.
106
00:07:29,449 --> 00:07:32,112
Is there any progress
on the source of the sound?
107
00:07:32,202 --> 00:07:33,943
The GSA is still looking into it.
108
00:07:34,079 --> 00:07:36,474
They're checking the floorboards
above and below, in case there's...
109
00:07:36,498 --> 00:07:38,364
I don't want to wait anymore.
110
00:07:38,792 --> 00:07:40,283
Please tell the executive housekeeper
111
00:07:40,377 --> 00:07:43,085
I'd like the former President's
belongings packed up.
112
00:07:43,171 --> 00:07:46,164
I'll have it taken care of.
113
00:10:01,684 --> 00:10:05,177
It's not true what he told you,
all those years ago.
114
00:10:05,271 --> 00:10:09,265
That there are two kinds,
useful and useless.
115
00:10:09,359 --> 00:10:13,148
There's only one kind. Pain is pain.
116
00:10:23,206 --> 00:10:27,997
Francis, I'm done with you.
117
00:10:39,180 --> 00:10:43,174
There. No more pain.
118
00:10:50,150 --> 00:10:51,857
You do this all day?
119
00:10:54,362 --> 00:10:58,732
I'm under psychiatric observation,
Seth. This is what you do.
120
00:11:02,620 --> 00:11:07,832
- Who's your new tailor?
- You gotta look the part.
121
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:12,624
So, when do they decide,
whether you're crazy or not?
122
00:11:13,298 --> 00:11:17,008
Because if you're not,
you should come work for us.
123
00:11:17,552 --> 00:11:18,668
"Us"?
124
00:11:20,847 --> 00:11:22,884
Have you been working there
for about five minutes?
125
00:11:22,974 --> 00:11:24,385
It's been a month, actually.
126
00:11:26,728 --> 00:11:28,435
So his body wasn't even cold?
127
00:11:28,730 --> 00:11:30,221
It's what he would have wanted.
128
00:11:30,315 --> 00:11:32,209
The Underwood Foundation was
basically gonna be modeled
129
00:11:32,233 --> 00:11:33,940
after the Shepherd
Freedom Foundation.
130
00:11:34,027 --> 00:11:36,485
I don't need the job.
131
00:11:37,322 --> 00:11:40,065
Well, for a confessed murderer,
you're pretty confident.
132
00:11:41,075 --> 00:11:44,159
- I'm about to be pardoned.
- Pardon?
133
00:11:45,288 --> 00:11:47,154
You really think
that she's gonna give you one?
134
00:11:47,248 --> 00:11:50,662
As usual, you don't know
what the fuck you're talking about.
135
00:11:50,919 --> 00:11:53,912
You know, there wasn't the kind
of crowd that you'd expect for him
136
00:11:54,047 --> 00:11:55,083
down there in Gaffney.
137
00:11:55,173 --> 00:11:58,837
He wanted to be buried in Arlington.
Not next to his father.
138
00:11:58,968 --> 00:12:00,459
That's not what his wife said.
139
00:12:04,807 --> 00:12:08,676
Tell me something. She even shed a tear?
140
00:12:09,854 --> 00:12:15,441
You know, I'm almost envious
to tell you the truth.
141
00:12:15,526 --> 00:12:20,146
That even beyond the grave,
you'd do anything for Francis Underwood.
142
00:12:26,037 --> 00:12:28,654
Doug, do you have my lighter?
143
00:12:34,462 --> 00:12:36,454
Much obliged.
144
00:12:41,135 --> 00:12:42,626
Was that who I thought it was?
145
00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:45,963
Fred Amburg? He went off the deep end?
146
00:12:46,057 --> 00:12:48,595
Everyone has problems, Seth.
147
00:12:48,685 --> 00:12:51,974
Especially the ones
who think they don't.
148
00:13:08,997 --> 00:13:11,614
- Claire.
- Annette.
149
00:13:11,708 --> 00:13:14,746
Did you get my note?
150
00:13:14,836 --> 00:13:17,169
I haven't had the courage
to read the condolences yet.
151
00:13:18,131 --> 00:13:21,590
It's good to see you
finally out and about.
152
00:13:21,676 --> 00:13:25,386
What you've been through.
153
00:13:25,471 --> 00:13:27,838
You know all about it.
154
00:13:27,974 --> 00:13:31,263
Well, for a long time,
I pretended he was still alive.
155
00:13:31,352 --> 00:13:32,684
Out of town.
156
00:13:32,770 --> 00:13:35,558
It was our son, Duncan,
that really saved me.
157
00:13:35,648 --> 00:13:39,312
Of course, we weren't married
anywhere near as long as you and Frank.
158
00:13:39,402 --> 00:13:42,861
Claire Hale. Nine years?
159
00:13:43,740 --> 00:13:47,108
Late spring, Sun Valley.
160
00:13:50,371 --> 00:13:51,907
You look exactly the same.
161
00:13:52,123 --> 00:13:56,743
Well, it's cities that age you,
it's what I tell everyone.
162
00:13:58,296 --> 00:14:02,131
Well, I hope you don't mind saying hello
to a few of our closest friends.
163
00:14:03,468 --> 00:14:05,425
They're just here for a cocktail
164
00:14:05,511 --> 00:14:09,801
before the sun goes down,
and the rest of the party shows up.
165
00:14:09,891 --> 00:14:13,976
My sister's fireworks show
have become a bit of a tradition.
166
00:14:16,814 --> 00:14:19,773
Don't worry.
They know how to be discreet.
167
00:14:24,739 --> 00:14:27,732
Scotty here,
just got his hands on Nexis Security.
168
00:14:27,825 --> 00:14:30,033
I heard you are speaking
to the Vice President.
169
00:14:30,119 --> 00:14:32,076
It's a company of peacekeepers, mostly.
170
00:14:32,163 --> 00:14:35,201
Tremendous potential
to create global partnerships.
171
00:14:35,291 --> 00:14:36,907
Your husband helped me
secure the deal.
172
00:14:37,001 --> 00:14:40,540
I wanted to bring him onto the board.
Bill was saying...
173
00:14:40,671 --> 00:14:41,878
Yes, I was just saying.
174
00:14:41,964 --> 00:14:46,959
Why in the world do they play
the 1812 Overture at a fireworks show?
175
00:14:47,053 --> 00:14:49,921
It's Russian for Christ's sake,
in every sense.
176
00:14:50,723 --> 00:14:54,182
- This is Tabitha.
- Peters, I know.
177
00:14:55,478 --> 00:14:58,642
Frank. Wasn't he planning
on being here today?
178
00:14:58,731 --> 00:14:59,767
He was.
179
00:14:59,857 --> 00:15:02,565
You must miss him terribly.
180
00:15:02,652 --> 00:15:05,235
I had some long and hard-fought
conversations with him.
181
00:15:05,321 --> 00:15:08,814
He was going to help me resolve
this AFL-CIO thing
182
00:15:08,908 --> 00:15:12,447
that's been going on forever out
in Nevada, with your help, of course.
183
00:15:12,537 --> 00:15:15,120
When the union stands
in the way of innovation,
184
00:15:15,206 --> 00:15:17,664
it's sentencing itself to death.
185
00:15:18,709 --> 00:15:21,702
I do admire the way
you hang on to your party.
186
00:15:21,796 --> 00:15:24,209
Your loyalty.
187
00:15:24,298 --> 00:15:26,381
Did I hear that
Lieutenant General Nancy Gallagher
188
00:15:26,467 --> 00:15:28,709
will be appearing with you later today?
189
00:15:32,265 --> 00:15:34,598
I think she'd make
an excellent candidate,
190
00:15:34,684 --> 00:15:37,222
if she decides to run, of course.
191
00:15:37,937 --> 00:15:40,645
She's going to run.
192
00:15:44,193 --> 00:15:47,982
The President is on a tight schedule.
193
00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:56,077
Excuse me.
194
00:16:12,221 --> 00:16:14,258
Well, this is a surprise.
195
00:16:15,725 --> 00:16:17,887
You know how Midwesterners feel
about those.
196
00:16:17,977 --> 00:16:21,561
Don't listen to him.
It's about time you came out.
197
00:16:21,647 --> 00:16:23,764
Seems we have some things to discuss.
198
00:16:23,858 --> 00:16:25,019
Yeah.
199
00:16:25,109 --> 00:16:28,068
Well, as far as this special election
is concerned, Claire,
200
00:16:28,154 --> 00:16:32,364
you need to know that the soon
to be retiring Miss Gallagher
201
00:16:32,450 --> 00:16:34,157
is out of the question.
202
00:16:34,243 --> 00:16:38,658
And I'm happy to see we're both fans
of the Declaration of Independence,
203
00:16:38,748 --> 00:16:40,239
unalienable rights, and all that.
204
00:16:40,333 --> 00:16:42,811
But it says down here in the speech
you're gonna give later, where...
205
00:16:42,835 --> 00:16:45,418
Miss Gallagher has my support.
206
00:16:46,797 --> 00:16:50,791
- I believe Mark conveyed our concerns.
- And communicated mine, I hope.
207
00:16:51,427 --> 00:16:54,716
She's a tax and spend Democrat
underneath that uniform.
208
00:16:54,805 --> 00:16:56,922
A patriot with a pristine resume.
209
00:16:57,016 --> 00:16:58,327
- Claire, I'm...
- Who is very vocal
210
00:16:58,351 --> 00:17:00,343
about keeping private contractors
211
00:17:00,436 --> 00:17:02,706
- away from U.S. military operations.
- Even as a negotiating point,
212
00:17:02,730 --> 00:17:03,937
you can do better than her.
213
00:17:04,023 --> 00:17:06,231
And I am tired of these delays,
Madam President.
214
00:17:06,317 --> 00:17:07,728
It is time for you to deliver.
215
00:17:11,030 --> 00:17:12,566
Your husband and I had an agreement.
216
00:17:12,657 --> 00:17:14,523
- Francis is dead, Bill.
- Promises were made.
217
00:17:14,617 --> 00:17:16,199
Not by me.
218
00:17:18,246 --> 00:17:19,453
Just like you,
219
00:17:19,539 --> 00:17:22,031
I like to negotiate
my own agreements.
220
00:17:22,667 --> 00:17:23,827
And make no mistake about it,
221
00:17:23,876 --> 00:17:25,788
the Lieutenant General
is not an anomaly.
222
00:17:25,878 --> 00:17:27,119
Well, I know that.
223
00:17:27,213 --> 00:17:29,149
I've seen your list of candidates
for the midterms...
224
00:17:29,173 --> 00:17:31,881
- Yes, mostly women.
- I don't care what sex they are.
225
00:17:31,968 --> 00:17:34,756
And for the record,
nobody loves women more than me.
226
00:17:34,845 --> 00:17:37,053
But this slate of yours,
it will bankrupt the country.
227
00:17:37,139 --> 00:17:39,176
They will set us back a generation.
228
00:17:39,267 --> 00:17:41,805
- They will completely...
- Support me.
229
00:17:41,894 --> 00:17:43,726
And what I stand for.
230
00:17:43,813 --> 00:17:45,600
- And what is that?
- Come on, Bill.
231
00:17:45,690 --> 00:17:48,103
No, no, no. Tell me. I wanna know.
What's your mission?
232
00:17:48,192 --> 00:17:50,354
- I wanna know what your platform is.
- Oh, please.
233
00:17:50,444 --> 00:17:52,606
I know you'd like to drown D.C.
all at once.
234
00:17:52,697 --> 00:17:55,280
But I'm gonna tell you right now,
I cannot let that happen.
235
00:17:55,366 --> 00:17:58,780
I still believe in government and
its ability to make the everyday lives
236
00:17:58,869 --> 00:18:00,952
- of its citizens better.
- Yeah.
237
00:18:01,038 --> 00:18:04,202
You don't want to support my slate,
that's fine
238
00:18:04,333 --> 00:18:08,077
- Claire...
- All I ask is, stay out of the way.
239
00:18:10,631 --> 00:18:14,215
There's a bill sitting on your desk.
240
00:18:14,302 --> 00:18:19,514
A bill that took years and money
to get passed.
241
00:18:19,599 --> 00:18:20,931
You sign that,
242
00:18:21,809 --> 00:18:24,768
and I know I got a friend
in the White House.
243
00:18:25,479 --> 00:18:28,267
If not,
244
00:18:28,357 --> 00:18:31,475
- then I don't.
- Enough.
245
00:18:33,154 --> 00:18:37,319
Nothing good happens to you
when she's around. Nothing.
246
00:18:37,408 --> 00:18:39,274
Why did you come out for Francis?
247
00:18:39,410 --> 00:18:41,197
For his foundation?
248
00:18:41,329 --> 00:18:44,288
I don't think you ever
really liked him.
249
00:18:44,373 --> 00:18:48,413
Probably never respected him.
Why back him now?
250
00:18:49,587 --> 00:18:51,795
Because he gave us you.
251
00:18:54,967 --> 00:18:57,801
Tell our friends I'll be back down
in time for the fireworks.
252
00:19:06,395 --> 00:19:11,641
Just so you know,
I always liked Frank.
253
00:19:11,734 --> 00:19:14,226
His desperation.
254
00:19:17,323 --> 00:19:19,690
I'm sorry you can't stay.
255
00:19:19,784 --> 00:19:23,368
I do enjoy curating our little show.
256
00:19:23,454 --> 00:19:26,322
I collect a variety of
fireworks shells as I travel.
257
00:19:26,957 --> 00:19:30,450
Italy. Spain. China.
258
00:19:30,544 --> 00:19:35,164
Do you know what the hardest color
to make is?
259
00:19:35,257 --> 00:19:37,795
- Red?
- No, red's easy.
260
00:19:37,885 --> 00:19:40,343
White's easy.
261
00:19:40,429 --> 00:19:41,590
It's blue.
262
00:19:41,681 --> 00:19:44,890
Very tricky chemistry,
involving copper and heat.
263
00:19:44,975 --> 00:19:48,685
A truly bright blue
is extremely elusive.
264
00:19:49,855 --> 00:19:55,567
Whatever Francis promised or did,
is buried with him.
265
00:19:56,070 --> 00:19:58,813
No, I know.
266
00:19:58,906 --> 00:20:01,990
We all need to let him go.
267
00:20:02,076 --> 00:20:06,787
Start from some kind of scratch.
268
00:20:06,872 --> 00:20:09,660
Though it must haunt you,
269
00:20:09,750 --> 00:20:12,914
the fact
that he died next to you, in bed.
270
00:20:19,427 --> 00:20:20,588
Hon,
271
00:20:23,222 --> 00:20:24,963
be patient.
272
00:20:29,061 --> 00:20:30,677
Are you saying
she doesn't like the name?
273
00:20:30,771 --> 00:20:32,040
I think she finds it incomplete.
274
00:20:32,064 --> 00:20:33,667
What's wrong with
the "Comprehensive Safety Act"?
275
00:20:33,691 --> 00:20:35,085
"Comprehensive Chemical Safety Act"?
276
00:20:35,109 --> 00:20:37,021
Or we could go back to
the "Smarter Safety Act".
277
00:20:37,153 --> 00:20:38,564
Would she like "Smarter" better?
278
00:20:38,654 --> 00:20:40,145
No, we need a good acronym.
279
00:20:40,239 --> 00:20:42,322
Mr. Vice President? Mark?
280
00:20:44,618 --> 00:20:45,734
Yeah. Agreed.
281
00:20:46,162 --> 00:20:49,906
At one point, we talked about
the Repeal Unsafe Regulation Act.
282
00:20:49,999 --> 00:20:51,865
That's "RURAL"
if we come up with an "L."
283
00:20:51,959 --> 00:20:52,995
Legislation?
284
00:20:53,085 --> 00:20:54,354
That doesn't make sense
with the rest of it.
285
00:20:54,378 --> 00:20:55,856
No, "RURAL."
Rural is too hard to say.
286
00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:57,667
"SAFE" is good. "SAFETY."
287
00:20:57,757 --> 00:20:59,498
- "FUTURE?"
- I like "FUTURE".
288
00:20:59,592 --> 00:21:03,051
Federal Universal Toxic and Unsafe...
289
00:21:03,137 --> 00:21:05,595
- Regulation Eradication.
- Okay.
290
00:21:05,806 --> 00:21:08,298
- The FUTURE Act.
- That could work.
291
00:21:08,392 --> 00:21:12,682
May I ask, Mr. Vice President,
does her hesitation go beyond the name?
292
00:21:14,398 --> 00:21:15,514
She'll come around.
293
00:21:15,608 --> 00:21:19,192
I'm guessing by the end of the day.
294
00:21:19,278 --> 00:21:21,882
Because in one form or another this
bill has been on her desk since...
295
00:21:21,906 --> 00:21:25,274
She'll sign it, Henry.
296
00:21:25,367 --> 00:21:26,483
Bill?
297
00:21:30,247 --> 00:21:33,456
What do you want me to do?
Yank her from her own military base?
298
00:21:37,588 --> 00:21:41,832
When in the course of human events,
it becomes necessary
299
00:21:41,926 --> 00:21:44,509
for one people
to dissolve the political bands
300
00:21:44,595 --> 00:21:49,306
which have connected them with another,
you just have to do it.
301
00:21:49,391 --> 00:21:52,008
Sever the relationship.
302
00:21:52,228 --> 00:21:56,393
Our nation's founding document,
The Declaration of Independence,
303
00:21:56,482 --> 00:22:00,817
America's independence,
was hard-fought and hard-won.
304
00:22:01,487 --> 00:22:02,648
Are you still there?
305
00:22:02,738 --> 00:22:07,449
Our Founding Fathers imagined
a nation that was free.
306
00:22:07,535 --> 00:22:12,155
Free from despotism.
Free from absolute tyranny.
307
00:22:12,248 --> 00:22:14,365
Free from an oppressive king.
308
00:22:14,792 --> 00:22:15,953
Do you miss Francis?
309
00:22:16,043 --> 00:22:19,036
Tyrants come in many forms.
310
00:22:19,129 --> 00:22:24,500
From the American oligarchs trying to
change the very fabric of our society,
311
00:22:24,593 --> 00:22:27,757
to autocrats threatening from abroad.
312
00:22:28,138 --> 00:22:33,850
Now, each one of us
has to defend our destiny.
313
00:22:33,936 --> 00:22:37,225
And as I see it,
the fight against tyranny
314
00:22:37,314 --> 00:22:41,433
is the only justification for war.
315
00:22:41,902 --> 00:22:46,943
My first one hundred days
as President have been difficult.
316
00:22:47,032 --> 00:22:49,695
I lost my husband.
317
00:22:49,785 --> 00:22:53,324
We were about to celebrate
30 years together.
318
00:22:53,414 --> 00:22:55,371
But I know what he would want.
319
00:22:55,833 --> 00:22:59,747
For me to stop mourning, and carry on.
320
00:22:59,837 --> 00:23:03,126
With the help of women like
Lieutenant General Nancy Gallagher,
321
00:23:03,215 --> 00:23:06,128
my presidency will not rest.
322
00:23:06,218 --> 00:23:10,758
Nancy has been an inspiration to me.
A tireless warrior.
323
00:23:11,181 --> 00:23:14,845
I promise her and all of you that
I will work on behalf of the rights
324
00:23:14,935 --> 00:23:19,179
and freedoms earned over
the last 241 years of our democracy.
325
00:23:20,858 --> 00:23:25,478
As I look into the eyes of you brave
soldiers standing before me today...
326
00:23:25,571 --> 00:23:26,607
Here's the thing...
327
00:23:26,697 --> 00:23:30,987
I'm feeling so proud right now.
Proud to be your Commander-in-Chief.
328
00:23:31,327 --> 00:23:35,446
Whatever Francis told you the last
five years, don't believe a word of it.
329
00:23:35,539 --> 00:23:39,158
Our country is 241 years old,
my friends.
330
00:23:39,251 --> 00:23:42,995
Let's wish this great nation
a happy birthday. Say it with me.
331
00:23:43,088 --> 00:23:45,455
Happy Birthday, America!
332
00:23:45,549 --> 00:23:48,417
Happy Birthday, America!
333
00:23:48,510 --> 00:23:49,905
It's going to be different
for you and me.
334
00:23:49,929 --> 00:23:51,010
One more time.
335
00:23:51,096 --> 00:23:52,376
I'm going to tell you the truth.
336
00:23:52,431 --> 00:23:54,889
Happy Birthday, America!
337
00:23:56,477 --> 00:23:58,935
- Thank you for your service.
- Thank you.
338
00:23:59,021 --> 00:24:01,513
Thank you for your service.
339
00:24:01,607 --> 00:24:05,396
- Thank you for your service.
- Thank you.
340
00:24:05,486 --> 00:24:07,853
I want you to know how wonderful
it is to be here,
341
00:24:07,947 --> 00:24:10,155
and meet all of you new recruits.
342
00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:12,948
So, thank you.
Thank you for your service.
343
00:24:13,035 --> 00:24:15,152
- Thank you.
- Thank you, ma'am.
344
00:24:15,245 --> 00:24:16,326
Thank you for your service.
345
00:24:16,413 --> 00:24:19,247
- Where are you from, Private?
- Kalamazoo, Mister President.
346
00:24:20,376 --> 00:24:22,618
- Excuse me, Madam President.
- That's quite all right.
347
00:24:22,753 --> 00:24:24,289
I actually hate "Madam."
348
00:24:24,380 --> 00:24:27,373
Makes me sound like I'm running
a brothel, and not a country.
349
00:24:27,466 --> 00:24:29,444
- Thank you for your service.
- Thank you, Madam President.
350
00:24:29,468 --> 00:24:31,084
Thank you for your service.
351
00:24:31,178 --> 00:24:33,010
And where are you from,
Private Burton?
352
00:24:33,097 --> 00:24:34,258
South Bend, ma'am.
353
00:24:34,348 --> 00:24:36,590
I love Indiana.
354
00:24:36,684 --> 00:24:38,641
I enlisted right before
you took office.
355
00:24:38,727 --> 00:24:41,310
Well, I promise you,
and every woman in this country
356
00:24:41,397 --> 00:24:43,104
that during my presidency,
357
00:24:43,190 --> 00:24:45,557
the key components of
the Equal Rights Amendment
358
00:24:45,651 --> 00:24:49,110
will finally pass.
I'm going to make sure of it.
359
00:24:49,905 --> 00:24:52,568
I want you to know I support you.
360
00:24:52,658 --> 00:24:57,244
- Do you even have a plan?
- What did you say?
361
00:24:57,746 --> 00:25:00,113
One that won't get us all killed.
362
00:25:02,876 --> 00:25:05,710
Would you have asked me that
if I were a man?
363
00:25:13,595 --> 00:25:17,054
- Madam President, I've got a question.
- Madam President. Madam President!
364
00:25:18,976 --> 00:25:20,262
One question, please!
365
00:26:30,881 --> 00:26:33,214
How much longer
till we get to the plane?
366
00:26:33,300 --> 00:26:35,587
Just another 25 minutes or so,
Madam President.
367
00:26:35,803 --> 00:26:37,010
Okay, thank you.
368
00:26:37,679 --> 00:26:39,136
Shit!
369
00:26:40,474 --> 00:26:42,841
- Is she shot?
- Stay down! Stay down!
370
00:26:42,935 --> 00:26:45,097
Shots fired! Shots fired!
371
00:26:45,187 --> 00:26:46,723
Are you okay, Madam President?
372
00:26:46,814 --> 00:26:49,022
- Are you all right?
- Yes.
373
00:26:49,108 --> 00:26:52,272
Lone Star is safe.
374
00:27:14,633 --> 00:27:18,377
Sir, someone just tried
to kill the President.
375
00:27:19,096 --> 00:27:21,509
I just got the alert. Is she all right?
376
00:27:21,598 --> 00:27:23,009
This way.
377
00:27:38,657 --> 00:27:43,618
Lincoln, Garfield, McKinley,
378
00:27:43,704 --> 00:27:45,787
Kennedy.
379
00:27:45,873 --> 00:27:49,332
Successful assassinations,
total of four.
380
00:27:52,254 --> 00:27:56,248
The attempts, nine?
381
00:27:56,341 --> 00:28:00,676
Jackson, both Roosevelts,
382
00:28:00,762 --> 00:28:05,848
Truman. Ford, twice. Reagan,
383
00:28:05,934 --> 00:28:08,301
the first Underwood, and...
384
00:28:10,606 --> 00:28:14,225
I will say, whoever tried to kill me,
385
00:28:14,318 --> 00:28:19,859
perversely, it's the first sign
of real respect I've gotten in 100 days.
386
00:28:29,249 --> 00:28:32,708
Somebody tried to kill her.
387
00:28:32,794 --> 00:28:33,875
Bill?
388
00:28:36,381 --> 00:28:39,624
Can you blame them?
389
00:28:39,718 --> 00:28:43,052
The Underwoods have
always been hard of hearing.
390
00:28:43,138 --> 00:28:44,754
She's not him.
391
00:28:44,848 --> 00:28:47,807
Oh, no, no. She is not.
392
00:28:47,893 --> 00:28:51,057
You know that better than anyone.
393
00:28:52,397 --> 00:28:56,357
- Is it public?
- Secret Service shut it down.
394
00:28:56,443 --> 00:29:01,234
Standard procedure, apparently.
Threats beget threats.
395
00:29:01,323 --> 00:29:03,406
Bill,
396
00:29:03,492 --> 00:29:06,781
were you behind this?
397
00:29:08,372 --> 00:29:10,830
We're gonna miss the show.
398
00:29:18,507 --> 00:29:20,624
- How are y'all?
- Madam President.
399
00:29:20,717 --> 00:29:23,630
Hi. I'm so sorry. I want to apologize
for the late departure.
400
00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:26,929
I know you all have families
and festivities waiting.
401
00:29:27,015 --> 00:29:30,554
Madam President,
may I ask what happened?
402
00:29:30,644 --> 00:29:35,139
The Beast was re-routed due
to security concerns. Pretty routine.
403
00:29:36,441 --> 00:29:39,149
I know it's been a while,
since I've been back here.
404
00:29:39,236 --> 00:29:42,070
I just wanted to wish you all
a very happy Fourth,
405
00:29:42,155 --> 00:29:44,863
even if you're gonna be
celebrating it on the fifth.
406
00:29:44,950 --> 00:29:46,066
I'm so sorry.
407
00:29:46,159 --> 00:29:50,028
- Your speech, afterwards with...
- Yes, the new recruit.
408
00:29:50,914 --> 00:29:54,498
If a new recruit, especially
a female one, can't speak her mind,
409
00:29:54,584 --> 00:29:58,954
I don't know what kind of country
we actually are.
410
00:30:02,050 --> 00:30:04,007
And be sure to tell us
if you run out of beer.
411
00:30:04,094 --> 00:30:06,211
Because I am sure
there's a couple of cases left over
412
00:30:06,305 --> 00:30:08,297
from the Carter administration.
413
00:30:09,850 --> 00:30:11,057
And you're new.
414
00:30:12,185 --> 00:30:15,428
Yes, ma'am. Melody Cruz.
I'm with Beltway Television.
415
00:30:15,939 --> 00:30:18,226
Well, I hope
everyone is making you feel at home.
416
00:30:18,483 --> 00:30:21,567
Very much so. It's an honor
to finally meet you.
417
00:30:21,653 --> 00:30:23,019
I'm a bit overwhelmed, sorry.
418
00:30:23,155 --> 00:30:24,691
Don't worry, I don't bite.
419
00:30:24,823 --> 00:30:27,110
No, I know.
420
00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:30,784
It's strange, I was supposed
to interview your husband.
421
00:30:31,830 --> 00:30:35,164
It was scheduled for a few days
after he died.
422
00:30:35,500 --> 00:30:38,993
It was going to be an exclusive.
We'd had a number of pre-interviews.
423
00:30:39,087 --> 00:30:40,669
Questions we'd agreed on.
424
00:30:42,007 --> 00:30:43,714
Questions like?
425
00:30:44,926 --> 00:30:49,762
Like, was the President
going to pardon him, and when?
426
00:30:50,557 --> 00:30:53,470
Will you? Even now, posthumously?
427
00:30:56,271 --> 00:30:58,979
I know you did an exclusive
with The New York Examiner,
428
00:30:59,107 --> 00:31:02,646
but I'm guessing that's only
going to scratch the surface.
429
00:31:03,737 --> 00:31:05,729
I bet you have more to say
430
00:31:05,822 --> 00:31:09,361
- about the state of your marriage.
- Miss... Cruz, is it?
431
00:31:09,451 --> 00:31:11,067
I don't know if anyone's told you,
432
00:31:11,203 --> 00:31:13,286
but when the President
visits this part of the plane,
433
00:31:13,372 --> 00:31:14,932
it's usually considered off the record.
434
00:31:15,707 --> 00:31:17,685
But you can ask my Press Secretary
anything you like,
435
00:31:17,709 --> 00:31:18,909
once we're back on the ground.
436
00:31:29,429 --> 00:31:33,139
You're especially quiet this evening.
437
00:31:33,225 --> 00:31:34,716
Maybe I'm a little agitated.
438
00:31:39,731 --> 00:31:44,146
Our patients don't do too well
when it comes to fireworks.
439
00:31:44,236 --> 00:31:45,272
Pardon me.
440
00:31:51,993 --> 00:31:53,074
Yes?
441
00:31:53,537 --> 00:31:56,905
I don't understand why you
leave that on when we're meeting.
442
00:31:56,998 --> 00:32:00,742
Well, it's not like you're saying
anything different, or new.
443
00:32:00,836 --> 00:32:03,203
Your dedication to your script
would be admirable.
444
00:32:03,296 --> 00:32:06,414
If it weren't so concerning.
445
00:32:08,552 --> 00:32:14,219
In a few weeks, I'll be appearing at
a hearing regarding your state of mind.
446
00:32:14,307 --> 00:32:16,344
And when it comes to your confession...
447
00:32:16,810 --> 00:32:20,645
Even a guilty man changes his story
now and then.
448
00:32:23,942 --> 00:32:25,854
Who do you answer to?
449
00:32:26,695 --> 00:32:29,688
I mean, who do you work for?
450
00:32:29,781 --> 00:32:30,897
You.
451
00:32:33,243 --> 00:32:36,407
That's the idea, anyway.
452
00:32:36,496 --> 00:32:38,783
Everybody works for somebody.
453
00:32:44,629 --> 00:32:49,169
I worked for a man
who refused to fail.
454
00:32:49,259 --> 00:32:53,879
I respected that.
I appreciated it.
455
00:32:58,894 --> 00:33:02,183
- I'd be dead without him.
- Why?
456
00:33:13,533 --> 00:33:17,322
I was working as an aide
for a congressman.
457
00:33:17,412 --> 00:33:23,158
He was idealistic and naive.
Had one term written all over him.
458
00:33:23,251 --> 00:33:27,245
But I needed a job, a place to be.
459
00:33:28,215 --> 00:33:31,299
I was barely keeping it together.
460
00:33:34,054 --> 00:33:36,967
Francis and I met at some function.
461
00:33:37,057 --> 00:33:40,266
You know, the kind you stand up at.
462
00:33:42,646 --> 00:33:47,061
I don't know how he knew,
but I had eight bottles in my trunk.
463
00:33:47,150 --> 00:33:51,645
I got through four that night
when he came to my door.
464
00:33:51,738 --> 00:33:55,573
I don't remember much. Not clearly.
465
00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:03,410
He took me to his home. But Claire...
466
00:34:07,170 --> 00:34:10,914
Francis got me dry.
467
00:34:11,007 --> 00:34:14,842
I shook so badly,
I thought I was gonna die.
468
00:34:16,304 --> 00:34:20,719
And then when I finally got clean,
he gave me my first job.
469
00:34:23,186 --> 00:34:25,052
As an aide?
470
00:34:26,982 --> 00:34:29,065
Sort of.
471
00:34:29,150 --> 00:34:32,609
He asked me to go talk to
Congressman Kyle from Iowa.
472
00:34:33,029 --> 00:34:34,315
To what end?
473
00:34:36,157 --> 00:34:38,649
To persuade him.
474
00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:41,907
And I did.
475
00:34:47,627 --> 00:34:50,370
But Claire,
476
00:34:50,463 --> 00:34:54,207
the way she treated him,
477
00:34:54,301 --> 00:34:56,714
in life and in death...
478
00:35:04,686 --> 00:35:08,225
You pay a price when you work
for somebody like him.
479
00:35:08,315 --> 00:35:10,853
Somebody you owe.
480
00:35:18,450 --> 00:35:22,490
Somebody close to me died
in a car accident.
481
00:35:24,289 --> 00:35:27,953
That's how I broke the terms
of my house arrest.
482
00:35:29,502 --> 00:35:31,994
I went to see the site of her wreck.
483
00:35:33,506 --> 00:35:36,624
It was twisted on the side of the road.
484
00:35:39,429 --> 00:35:42,422
I just stood there.
485
00:35:42,515 --> 00:35:44,973
An accident?
486
00:35:46,770 --> 00:35:48,932
So they say.
487
00:35:50,649 --> 00:35:53,357
And Zoe Barnes?
488
00:35:55,320 --> 00:35:58,313
I killed her.
489
00:35:58,406 --> 00:35:59,817
For the President?
490
00:36:11,002 --> 00:36:14,746
That's what he used to do when he won.
491
00:36:16,466 --> 00:36:19,083
What did he leave you with?
492
00:36:27,018 --> 00:36:32,138
Last thing that Francis gave me
was the letter opener from his desk.
493
00:36:33,483 --> 00:36:36,271
I mean, I chose it, but...
494
00:36:39,072 --> 00:36:44,158
But I guess really, the last thing
he gave me was an apology.
495
00:36:44,244 --> 00:36:47,703
I spoke to him the night he died.
496
00:38:18,630 --> 00:38:21,247
...my presidency will not rest.
497
00:38:22,425 --> 00:38:25,918
Nancy has been an inspiration to me.
A tireless warrior.
498
00:38:26,012 --> 00:38:29,722
I promise her and all of you that
I will work on behalf of the rights
499
00:38:29,808 --> 00:38:34,394
and freedoms earned over
the last 241 years of our democracy.
500
00:38:34,479 --> 00:38:36,141
Tyrants come in many forms.
501
00:38:36,272 --> 00:38:37,308
Pathetic.
502
00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:40,148
From the American oligarchs
trying to change the very...
503
00:38:48,952 --> 00:38:51,911
Are you sure you don't want
to take an hour or two to...
504
00:38:51,996 --> 00:38:54,363
Mark. I'm inside the White House.
505
00:38:54,457 --> 00:38:56,915
There's only two of us in the Oval,
so unless you're packing,
506
00:38:57,001 --> 00:38:58,479
it's literally the safest place
I can be.
507
00:38:58,503 --> 00:39:00,620
Well, I'm not packing, Madam President,
508
00:39:00,755 --> 00:39:03,714
but no one would fault you
for taking a breath for a minute.
509
00:39:05,593 --> 00:39:07,755
I'm breathing just fine.
510
00:39:08,388 --> 00:39:10,880
Can we keep news of this contained?
511
00:39:10,974 --> 00:39:12,681
I've taken every possible step, I think.
512
00:39:12,767 --> 00:39:14,554
So, who is he?
513
00:39:15,270 --> 00:39:18,388
Well, they did forensics on the route.
514
00:39:18,523 --> 00:39:21,436
Compared notes with the aerial detail.
515
00:39:21,526 --> 00:39:24,894
Homeland Secretary
and the Bureau were brought in.
516
00:39:24,988 --> 00:39:29,403
He never left the place
he took the shot from.
517
00:39:33,705 --> 00:39:37,870
Can you answer a single question,
directly and simply?
518
00:39:39,377 --> 00:39:41,414
He shot himself in the head
519
00:39:41,504 --> 00:39:46,169
with his own
U.S. military issued handgun.
520
00:39:46,259 --> 00:39:50,549
- And we're sure he's the one?
- Yeah. Pro-militia. Anti-government.
521
00:39:50,638 --> 00:39:53,221
Dishonorably discharged last year.
All the typical markers.
522
00:39:53,308 --> 00:39:57,222
Secret Service is confident.
And the Bureau is investigating.
523
00:40:00,523 --> 00:40:04,392
How did Bill Shepherd
get his hands on my speech?
524
00:40:04,485 --> 00:40:08,900
What? Well, the press
usually gets it hours before.
525
00:40:08,990 --> 00:40:11,778
It wouldn't be that hard
to access a copy, I guess.
526
00:40:14,746 --> 00:40:16,988
I won't be signing that today.
527
00:40:21,502 --> 00:40:24,370
You went there to declare your
independence, and you declared war.
528
00:40:24,464 --> 00:40:25,500
That was a mistake.
529
00:40:25,632 --> 00:40:27,669
No, the mistake was
I didn't hire a Chief of Staff
530
00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:29,153
and things are slipping
through the cracks.
531
00:40:29,177 --> 00:40:30,487
That's where
I have to disagree with you.
532
00:40:30,511 --> 00:40:32,047
We need to keep this circle small.
533
00:40:33,264 --> 00:40:37,554
You know, Francis warned me about you.
534
00:40:40,146 --> 00:40:42,809
I assure you, I serve
at your pleasure, Madam President.
535
00:40:43,399 --> 00:40:47,234
You need to stop meeting in my office
without me.
536
00:40:50,073 --> 00:40:51,939
Yes, ma'am.
537
00:41:00,124 --> 00:41:01,615
Secret Service took the lead.
538
00:41:02,085 --> 00:41:03,792
But do you believe the theory?
539
00:41:03,878 --> 00:41:07,792
That it was a disgruntled service person
who took a shot at me?
540
00:41:07,882 --> 00:41:08,998
PID does.
541
00:41:10,677 --> 00:41:13,465
I'm asking what you think.
542
00:41:16,182 --> 00:41:19,175
It depends if it was a warning,
or an actual attempt.
543
00:41:20,436 --> 00:41:21,722
Given the accuracy,
544
00:41:21,813 --> 00:41:23,975
the shooter would have been
informed enough to know
545
00:41:24,065 --> 00:41:28,560
that a.50 caliber round
wouldn't penetrate The Beast.
546
00:41:28,653 --> 00:41:29,893
I think he wanted to scare you.
547
00:41:30,488 --> 00:41:31,899
On behalf of someone.
548
00:41:31,990 --> 00:41:34,528
Lots of people make threats
against sitting Presidents.
549
00:41:34,617 --> 00:41:37,860
I'm starting to believe
Francis was murdered.
550
00:41:42,166 --> 00:41:45,750
Before he died, he aligned himself
with some very powerful people.
551
00:41:45,837 --> 00:41:48,023
And I think they turned on him
and they wanted him dead,
552
00:41:48,047 --> 00:41:50,790
and I think they want me dead, too.
553
00:41:52,260 --> 00:41:54,593
Do you think that sounds crazy?
554
00:41:55,972 --> 00:41:57,588
No, ma'am.
555
00:41:57,932 --> 00:42:00,174
But I think we need to bring in
Special Agent Bowman...
556
00:42:00,268 --> 00:42:02,510
These people, these powerful families,
557
00:42:02,603 --> 00:42:06,222
they advocate
dismantling intelligence agencies.
558
00:42:06,441 --> 00:42:09,525
CIA, FBI, Homeland.
You know that, right?
559
00:42:09,610 --> 00:42:11,442
- Ma'am, I...
- We cannot bring
560
00:42:11,529 --> 00:42:14,192
anyone else in at the moment.
561
00:42:15,199 --> 00:42:20,069
I'm relying on you
the way I know my husband could.
562
00:42:20,163 --> 00:42:23,076
So, please see what you can find.
563
00:42:29,505 --> 00:42:32,339
Is it ever "Nate", or always "Nathan"?
564
00:42:34,052 --> 00:42:35,052
Nathan.
565
00:42:37,055 --> 00:42:41,720
Like Francis. For me, anyway.
566
00:42:44,896 --> 00:42:47,684
Have you spoken to Doug Stamper?
567
00:42:50,401 --> 00:42:51,482
No.
568
00:42:53,279 --> 00:42:54,770
I'm so worried about him.
569
00:42:54,864 --> 00:42:59,575
He did things no one in this
White House should be proud of.
570
00:43:22,725 --> 00:43:25,684
- Hey, Mom.
- How many people do you have there?
571
00:43:25,770 --> 00:43:30,435
Not many.
Nobody that interesting, anyway.
572
00:43:30,525 --> 00:43:33,609
Her visit to the base.
Independence speech,
573
00:43:33,694 --> 00:43:35,936
even the naughty soldier,
is playing well for her.
574
00:43:36,030 --> 00:43:38,989
Her charmed life persists.
575
00:43:39,075 --> 00:43:40,987
Tell Uncle Bill we should step up.
576
00:43:41,202 --> 00:43:43,910
I can manage the narrative.
De-charm her.
577
00:43:44,122 --> 00:43:45,329
He won't like that.
578
00:43:45,414 --> 00:43:47,872
He's not going to like any of it,
so, what's the difference?
579
00:43:48,835 --> 00:43:49,916
I don't know.
580
00:43:50,002 --> 00:43:54,167
Mom, just say the word.
581
00:43:54,257 --> 00:43:55,589
Trust me.
582
00:43:55,675 --> 00:43:59,544
Don't do a thing
until I get back to you.
583
00:44:18,698 --> 00:44:20,860
Can't even tell you're still in D.C.
584
00:44:21,701 --> 00:44:25,866
There are parts of this city
that will always remain a secret.
585
00:44:29,584 --> 00:44:32,020
I don't think I'll be welcome back
in the White House press pool
586
00:44:32,044 --> 00:44:35,503
- anytime soon, FYI.
- Doesn't matter.
587
00:44:37,550 --> 00:44:40,418
She won't speak to me. An interview?
588
00:44:40,511 --> 00:44:43,424
- Not after...
- She will.
589
00:44:50,730 --> 00:44:53,268
Tonight, for the first time,
he was forthcoming.
590
00:44:53,357 --> 00:44:57,476
- But still saying he's guilty?
- Yeah, as always.
591
00:44:57,570 --> 00:45:00,108
And did he mention
Mister Grayson by name?
592
00:45:00,198 --> 00:45:03,441
No. He was just more distressed.
593
00:45:03,534 --> 00:45:08,871
- So, he's getting worse?
- Or better, he's finally talking.
594
00:45:08,956 --> 00:45:12,791
But the idea of his leaving
the facility anytime soon,
595
00:45:12,877 --> 00:45:16,336
that's still out of the question.
I mean, for his own good.
596
00:45:16,422 --> 00:45:17,913
He's either guilty of the crime,
597
00:45:18,007 --> 00:45:20,670
- or psychotic for admitting to it.
- Madam President,
598
00:45:20,760 --> 00:45:23,798
Miss Shepherd
is on the White House line.
599
00:45:25,598 --> 00:45:28,591
Well, maybe it's time to give him
one of the antipsychotics.
600
00:45:28,684 --> 00:45:33,224
Possibly. But we'd have to consider
his history of addiction.
601
00:45:33,314 --> 00:45:37,228
By the way, in answer to your question,
it was a letter opener,
602
00:45:37,318 --> 00:45:40,436
the last thing
that Francis gave him from his desk.
603
00:45:40,529 --> 00:45:44,398
Keep me posted, Charles. And, thank you.
604
00:45:44,492 --> 00:45:45,608
Sure.
605
00:45:51,749 --> 00:45:53,786
Are you prepared?
606
00:45:55,795 --> 00:45:57,411
Excuse me?
607
00:45:58,756 --> 00:46:02,045
Don't you remember? Andover?
Our prep school joke.
608
00:46:03,886 --> 00:46:06,219
I'm prepared to fail the test.
609
00:46:08,057 --> 00:46:09,719
Are you all right?
610
00:46:12,144 --> 00:46:16,855
I'm sorry to call so late,
I heard about what happened today.
611
00:46:19,527 --> 00:46:22,315
These things have a tendency
to leak out.
612
00:46:22,405 --> 00:46:24,317
I'm worried about you.
613
00:46:24,407 --> 00:46:26,820
It's bulletproof. The motorcade glass.
614
00:46:26,909 --> 00:46:31,199
- Did they catch the guy?
- How do you know it's a guy?
615
00:46:32,290 --> 00:46:35,783
It's always a guy. Right?
616
00:46:39,338 --> 00:46:43,833
What was it Bill wanted adjusted
in my speech?
617
00:46:47,513 --> 00:46:50,927
Something about freedom.
618
00:46:54,812 --> 00:46:57,805
You're in my thoughts, Claire.
619
00:46:58,232 --> 00:47:00,144
Thank you.
620
00:47:00,234 --> 00:47:02,317
He's still with us, don't you think?
621
00:47:02,403 --> 00:47:05,521
- Who?
- Frank.
622
00:47:05,614 --> 00:47:10,109
We're so glad we got to spend
so much time with him before he died.
623
00:47:11,203 --> 00:47:15,447
He told us some fascinating things.
624
00:47:15,541 --> 00:47:17,703
He's been on my mind.
625
00:47:20,504 --> 00:47:24,373
Bill and I finally went down
to Gaffney a few days ago,
626
00:47:26,177 --> 00:47:28,715
to pay our respects.
627
00:49:16,620 --> 00:49:20,489
Claire, I shouldn't have let them!
I'm sorry!
628
00:49:21,208 --> 00:49:24,246
Come on out, now!
629
00:49:28,048 --> 00:49:29,414
Are you still there?
630
00:49:29,508 --> 00:49:31,374
Yes.
631
00:50:04,335 --> 00:50:08,579
I know. You want to know
what really happened to him.
632
00:50:08,672 --> 00:50:11,506
A man like Francis doesn't just die.
633
00:50:11,592 --> 00:50:15,882
That would be... What's the word?
634
00:50:15,971 --> 00:50:18,008
"Convenient".
