Daisy came to me last night.
162

After consulting
with Olivia, I told her

00:06:02,718 --> 00:06:04,096
to go to the FBI.

00:06:11,127 --> 00:06:13,739
This seemed material.
168
00:06:13,763 --> 00:06:15,474
(SIGHS) I'd say.
169
00:06:15,498 --> 00:06:16,975
Normally, there'd be a firewall
170
00:06:16,999 --> 00:06:18,477
between you and the investigation.
171
00:06:18,501 --> 00:06:20,212
But this is clearly an exception.
172
00:06:20,236 --> 00:06:22,047
After taking appropriate steps,
173
00:06:22,071 --> 00:06:25,651
we all agreed that it was time
to read you in.
174
00:06:25,675 --> 00:06:27,886
I have a lot of questions.
175
00:06:27,910 --> 00:06:30,255
Start with the obvious.
176
00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:33,091
Did Daisy commit a crime?
177
00:06:33,115 --> 00:06:35,861
Well, if she's telling the truth, no.
178
00:06:35,885 --> 00:06:37,696
But if she leaked the file,
179
00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:40,065
she may be liable
under campaign finance laws.
180
00:06:40,089 --> 00:06:41,366
Even then, they'd have to prove
181
00:06:41,390 --> 00:06:43,769
that she knew the
information was hacked.
182
00:06:43,793 --> 00:06:46,204
So, as far as we know,
183
00:06:46,228 --> 00:06:47,673
the only thing she did wrong
184
00:06:47,697 --> 00:06:50,042
was fail to report the
encounter at the time.
185
00:06:50,066 --> 00:06:52,528
Technically, an omission on her SF86.
186
00:06:52,529 --> 00:06:54,880
Which isn't even illegal.
It's a finger wag
187
00:06:54,904 --> 00:06:57,582
- from the OPM.
- The issue here isn't legal jeopardy,
188
00:06:57,606 --> 00:06:59,284
it's public perception.
189
00:06:59,308 --> 00:07:01,319
Tell her.
190
00:07:01,343 --> 00:07:02,954
Well, per Justice rules,
191
00:07:02,978 --> 00:07:05,424
the FBI has until tomorrow
192
00:07:05,448 --> 00:07:07,799
to disclose this finding
to the Senate.
193
00:07:08,951 --> 00:07:12,064
And you think that
Hanson will leak it.
194
00:07:12,088 --> 00:07:13,432
Press Secretary.
195
00:07:13,456 --> 00:07:15,167
Secret flash drive. Foreign agent.
196
00:07:15,191 --> 00:07:17,869
By the time he runs it through
his Conspiratron 5000,
197
00:07:17,893 --> 00:07:19,738
it'll look like you were
twerking with the Ayatollah.
198
00:07:19,762 --> 00:07:21,606
I have to admit, the timing looks bad.
199
00:07:21,630 --> 00:07:23,108
I mean, isn't there anybody
200
00:07:23,132 --> 00:07:25,544
who can corroborate Daisy's story?
201
00:07:25,568 --> 00:07:26,978
Well, there are only two other people
202
00:07:27,002 --> 00:07:28,180
who know what really happened.
203
00:07:28,204 --> 00:07:30,048
This French lady Ms. Bernard
204
00:07:30,072 --> 00:07:32,451
and Valerie Guillen,
the Chronicle reporter
205
00:07:32,475 --> 00:07:33,819
who originally broke the Miller story.
206
00:07:33,843 --> 00:07:37,622
Well, I imagine Guillen
won't reveal her source.
207
00:07:37,646 --> 00:07:39,991
The Grand Jury has issued
a subpoena, but...
208
00:07:40,015 --> 00:07:41,359
She's hugging the First Amendment
209
00:07:41,383 --> 00:07:42,728
like a ficus on Arbor Day.
210
00:07:42,752 --> 00:07:45,030
Well, that leaves Ms. Bernard.
211
00:07:45,054 --> 00:07:47,699
Obviously, she's an Iranian agent.
212
00:07:47,723 --> 00:07:50,102
DNI Ware is on it now.
213
00:07:50,126 --> 00:07:52,270
So far, all we know
is that she transferred
214
00:07:52,294 --> 00:07:53,872
from the embassy here in D.C.
215
00:07:53,896 --> 00:07:56,408
back to Paris last month.
216
00:07:56,432 --> 00:08:00,278
Well, look, let's tell Ephraim
that I want the entire IC on it.
217
00:08:00,302 --> 00:08:02,581
Any resources he can spare.
218
00:08:02,605 --> 00:08:04,182
And let's get Secretary Thompson,
219
00:08:04,206 --> 00:08:06,651
- lean on the French for cooperation.
- Yes, ma'am.
220
00:08:06,675 --> 00:08:10,428
I want to know the minute
we find Ms. Bernard.
221
00:08:11,347 --> 00:08:13,898
We need the truth, wherever it leads.
222
00:08:14,850 --> 00:08:17,395
For now, it's just business as usual.
223
00:08:17,419 --> 00:08:19,304
Thank you.

225
00:08:25,227 --> 00:08:27,139
Uh... Oh.
226
00:08:27,163 --> 00:08:28,640
Well, I... (CLICKS TONGUE)
227
00:08:28,664 --> 00:08:31,977
I think we can rule out glue.
228
00:08:32,001 --> 00:08:34,379
Well, can you do some
kind of patch job?
229
00:08:34,403 --> 00:08:37,082
President Dalton's portrait
unveiling is in two days.
230
00:08:37,106 --> 00:08:38,350
(SCOFFS)
231
00:08:38,374 --> 00:08:41,153
(CHUCKLES): I'll triage as best I can.
232
00:08:41,177 --> 00:08:43,288
Okay. Thanks.
233
00:08:43,312 --> 00:08:45,257
All right. What's next, Evan?
234
00:08:45,281 --> 00:08:47,359
Well, since you and Stevie
are still under subpoena,
235
00:08:47,383 --> 00:08:50,495
Olivia Mason sent an update
on the Senate investigation.
236
00:08:50,519 --> 00:08:52,564
Oh, good. I could use
some light reading.
237
00:08:52,588 --> 00:08:54,533
It's on your desk,
along with the usual
238
00:08:54,557 --> 00:08:56,334
uh, barrage of mail.
239
00:08:56,358 --> 00:08:57,869
More jokes about my sex life?
240
00:08:57,893 --> 00:09:00,872
Plenty. But you're also invited
to a naturalization ceremony.
241
00:09:00,896 --> 00:09:03,341
Dmitri Petrov. Says he knows you.
242
00:09:03,365 --> 00:09:05,043
RSVP that I'll be there.
243
00:09:05,067 --> 00:09:06,444
- Uh, and set up a coffee.
- (GROANS)
244
00:09:06,468 --> 00:09:07,746
- I want to catch up with him.
- Copy that.
245
00:09:07,770 --> 00:09:08,814
Sorry. Charley horse.
246
00:09:08,838 --> 00:09:09,881
Uh, the president's here.
247
00:09:09,905 --> 00:09:11,249
The old one. Th-The former one.
248
00:09:11,273 --> 00:09:12,517
Well, also older.
249
00:09:12,541 --> 00:09:14,219
He's two hours early.
250
00:09:14,243 --> 00:09:16,394
- Ma'am.

(CHUCKLES)
255
00:09:34,063 --> 00:09:35,073
Henry.
256
00:09:35,097 --> 00:09:36,308
Hello, sir.
257
00:09:36,332 --> 00:09:37,509
Lookin' good. I love the hair.
258
00:09:37,533 --> 00:09:39,945
Yeah, shades of the summer of '67.
259
00:09:39,969 --> 00:09:41,746
- It's great to see you both. Russell.
- Aw.
260
00:09:41,770 --> 00:09:43,949
How'd they lure you out of retirement?
261
00:09:43,973 --> 00:09:45,150
I asked.
262
00:09:45,174 --> 00:09:47,485
And Carol agreed not to kill me.
263
00:09:47,509 --> 00:09:50,422
Hey, I reserved nine holes
for us at Fort Belvoir.
264
00:09:50,446 --> 00:09:51,423
Can't wait.
265
00:09:51,447 --> 00:09:52,630
Almost forgot.
266
00:09:57,286 --> 00:09:58,496
You brought Gertrude.
267
00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:01,399
Ten years in the closet,
still plays sweet as ever.
268
00:10:01,423 --> 00:10:02,434
(LAUGHS)
269
00:10:02,458 --> 00:10:03,802
I'm, uh, polishing up a song
270
00:10:03,826 --> 00:10:05,337
I'm writing for my album.
271
00:10:05,361 --> 00:10:07,405
Did I tell you about my album?
272
00:10:07,429 --> 00:10:10,976
So it's basically a conceptual
folk project for kids.
273
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:14,379
A lot of work, but Lydia's
been very patient.
274
00:10:14,403 --> 00:10:15,580
How is Lydia?
275
00:10:15,604 --> 00:10:16,882
Sorry she couldn't make it.
276
00:10:16,906 --> 00:10:18,116
Yeah, she sends her best,
277
00:10:18,140 --> 00:10:20,185
and, uh, believe me,
she's had enough time
278
00:10:20,209 --> 00:10:22,454
in this place to last a lifetime.
279
00:10:22,478 --> 00:10:24,356
But, who knows, maybe,
uh, being back here
280
00:10:24,380 --> 00:10:26,324
will be the spark I need
to finish that last song
281
00:10:26,348 --> 00:10:28,326
before I do the interview
with Bob Schieffer.
282
00:10:28,350 --> 00:10:30,028
I thought you weren't doing media.
283
00:10:30,052 --> 00:10:31,863
Eh, just to promote the album.
284
00:10:31,887 --> 00:10:33,498
And, you know, it turns out
Schieffer's a honky-tonk guy.
285
00:10:33,522 --> 00:10:34,566
No kidding.
286
00:10:34,590 --> 00:10:36,468
Oh, uh, Madam President,
Mr. President.
287
00:10:36,492 --> 00:10:39,204
Uh, DNI Ware and Director Banks
need to see you.
288
00:10:39,228 --> 00:10:41,907
- Uh...
- Well, I'm guessing that scratches
289
00:10:41,931 --> 00:10:44,242
- our golf game.
- I'm out of practice anyway.
290
00:10:44,266 --> 00:10:45,210
Dinner tomorrow night, right?
291
00:10:45,234 --> 00:10:46,464
- Can't wait, yeah.
- Great.
292
00:10:47,236 --> 00:10:48,647
Did we get Bernard?
293
00:10:48,671 --> 00:10:50,048
No, ma'am.
294
00:10:50,072 --> 00:10:52,751
French DGSI traced her to
a farmhouse outside of Tours.
295
00:10:52,775 --> 00:10:55,053
But when the local gendarmerie
296
00:10:55,077 --> 00:10:56,388
raided the place, they came up empty.
297
00:10:56,412 --> 00:10:58,290
Then why are we here?
298
00:10:58,314 --> 00:11:00,091
Because I think we found her.
299
00:11:00,115 --> 00:11:02,694
A phone recovered at the farmhouse
300
00:11:02,718 --> 00:11:04,729
gave us a working theory,
301
00:11:04,753 --> 00:11:07,198
which NSA facial recognition
302
00:11:07,222 --> 00:11:09,401
just confirmed.
303
00:11:09,425 --> 00:11:11,336
She's in Tehran.
304
00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:12,971
Yeah, we're still working out
how she got there.
305
00:11:12,995 --> 00:11:14,572
But, for the moment, it's safe to say
306
00:11:14,596 --> 00:11:17,108
Claudine Bernard is out of reach.
307
00:11:17,132 --> 00:11:19,311
Well, we could have Secretary Thompson
308
00:11:19,335 --> 00:11:22,113
put out a feeler,
request an interview.
309
00:11:22,137 --> 00:11:23,682
They'll refuse.
310
00:11:23,706 --> 00:11:26,017
We'll have shown our hand for nothing.
311
00:11:26,041 --> 00:11:27,619
When do you have to put in
312
00:11:27,643 --> 00:11:29,120
your letter of disclosure
to the Senate?
313
00:11:29,144 --> 00:11:30,121
About Daisy?
314
00:11:30,145 --> 00:11:31,690
1700 tomorrow.
315
00:11:31,714 --> 00:11:34,125
Huh.
316
00:11:34,149 --> 00:11:35,660
Thank you.
317
00:11:35,684 --> 00:11:37,702
- Ma'am.
- Madam President.
318
00:11:41,056 --> 00:11:43,134
(DOOR OPENS)
319
00:11:43,158 --> 00:11:45,337
Claudine Bernard was our best shot
320
00:11:45,361 --> 00:11:48,239
at exonerating Daisy.
321
00:11:48,263 --> 00:11:50,581
But there's still time
to get in front of it.

323
00:11:54,503 --> 00:11:55,647
Yes, ma'am?
324
00:11:55,671 --> 00:11:57,248
I need to see Daisy.
325
00:11:57,272 --> 00:11:58,656
Alone.
326
00:11:59,808 --> 00:12:01,926
(DOOR CLOSES)
327
00:12:05,447 --> 00:12:07,993
Ma'am.
328
00:12:08,017 --> 00:12:09,828
- Ma'am, if I may...
- I've been
329
00:12:09,852 --> 00:12:12,163
briefed on your situation.
330
00:12:12,187 --> 00:12:13,465
I didn't leak it.
331
00:12:13,489 --> 00:12:15,700
Oh, boy, I want to believe you, Daisy.
332
00:12:15,724 --> 00:12:18,169
But when that French woman
gave you the flash drive,
333
00:12:18,193 --> 00:12:20,572
when the story broke,
you stayed silent.
334
00:12:20,596 --> 00:12:22,107
I need to know why.
335
00:12:22,131 --> 00:12:23,375
Because he's a monster.
336
00:12:23,399 --> 00:12:24,442
Who?
337
00:12:24,466 --> 00:12:26,644
Senator Miller.
338
00:12:26,668 --> 00:12:29,581
The story broke the day
after I got the file.
339
00:12:29,605 --> 00:12:32,450
If I'd gone to the FBI,
how would that look?
340
00:12:32,474 --> 00:12:33,852
The way it does now.
341
00:12:33,876 --> 00:12:35,787
Bad.
342
00:12:35,811 --> 00:12:37,822
You should have disclosed it.
343
00:12:37,846 --> 00:12:40,358
And had it been any other
candidate, I would have.
344
00:12:40,382 --> 00:12:44,101
But Miller's a racist,
a bully and a liar.
345
00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:46,331
I did nothing wrong.
346
00:12:46,355 --> 00:12:49,200
But I knew that he would lie
and distort and say that
347
00:12:49,224 --> 00:12:50,668
it was clear evidence
that you were colluding
348
00:12:50,692 --> 00:12:52,203
with a foreign agent.
349
00:12:52,227 --> 00:12:54,973
And because of his stature
as a Republican nominee,
350
00:12:54,997 --> 00:12:57,075
millions of people
would have believed it.
351
00:12:57,099 --> 00:13:00,445
And had those lies sunk your
campaign and he got elected,
352
00:13:00,469 --> 00:13:02,447
I wouldn't have been able
to look my daughter in the eye.
353
00:13:02,471 --> 00:13:04,516
I don't need you to protect me.
354
00:13:04,540 --> 00:13:05,517
I'm sorry, ma'am,
355
00:13:05,541 --> 00:13:07,852
but it's my job to protect you.
356
00:13:07,876 --> 00:13:09,587
And against a guy like Miller,
357
00:13:09,611 --> 00:13:11,623
you can't play by the rules.
358
00:13:11,647 --> 00:13:13,992
I know it felt like that,
359
00:13:14,016 --> 00:13:16,861
but it wasn't your choice to make.
360

00:20:25,956 --> 00:20:27,834
- Where's Valerie?
- Where's Valerie?
538
00:20:27,858 --> 00:20:29,102
Where's Valerie?
539
00:20:29,126 --> 00:20:30,303
Where's Valerie?
540
00:20:30,327 --> 00:20:31,877
- (DOOR CLOSES)
- Where's Valerie?
541
00:20:34,631 --> 00:20:36,676
You could have heard a pin drop.
542
00:20:36,700 --> 00:20:38,745
Well, they made plenty of
noise once they got outside.
543
00:20:38,769 --> 00:20:41,848
Yeah, circling the wagons
to whine about freedom.
544
00:20:41,872 --> 00:20:43,016
It never gets old.
545
00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:46,252
Except Valerie Guillen
is in jail for contempt,
546
00:20:46,276 --> 00:20:48,621
not for anything she published.
547
00:20:48,645 --> 00:20:50,990
This is about finding the truth,
548
00:20:51,014 --> 00:20:53,265
not about censorship.
549
00:20:56,253 --> 00:20:58,231
Pass the romanesco.
550
00:20:58,255 --> 00:21:00,166
You know,
551
00:21:00,190 --> 00:21:03,169
I've been trying to
grow this in my garden.
552
00:21:03,193 --> 00:21:05,745
Takes a lot of TLC.
553
00:21:11,034 --> 00:21:13,012
Well, I don't know
where we go from here.
554
00:21:13,036 --> 00:21:14,881
I believe Daisy,
555
00:21:14,905 --> 00:21:18,284
but this First Amendment standoff
556
00:21:18,308 --> 00:21:19,519
could go on indefinitely.
557
00:21:19,543 --> 00:21:20,653
Meanwhile,
558
00:21:20,677 --> 00:21:22,689
half of Congress
is rushing to judgment,
559
00:21:22,713 --> 00:21:24,730
calling for my scalp.
560
00:21:27,117 --> 00:21:30,563
Sir, if you could, uh,
put in a positive word
561
00:21:30,587 --> 00:21:32,765
during your appearance
to promote your album,
562
00:21:32,789 --> 00:21:34,500
may help.
563
00:21:34,524 --> 00:21:36,603
That reminds me.
564
00:21:36,627 --> 00:21:39,205
Couple of things I should,
uh, share with you
565
00:21:39,229 --> 00:21:41,107
that might come up in the interview.
566
00:21:41,131 --> 00:21:44,243
First, I'm gonna be a grandpa.
567
00:21:44,267 --> 00:21:45,378
HENRY: What? Wow.
568
00:21:45,402 --> 00:21:46,479
- What?
- Yeah.
569
00:21:46,503 --> 00:21:47,680
Harrison and...
570
00:21:47,704 --> 00:21:49,349
And his girlfriend is
going to have a baby.
571
00:21:49,373 --> 00:21:50,383
- Oh!
- Oh, wow.
572
00:21:50,407 --> 00:21:51,818
Lydia's with her now.
573
00:21:51,842 --> 00:21:53,820
That's why she couldn't
be with us, so...
574
00:21:53,844 --> 00:21:55,321
- Oh.
- There was
575
00:21:55,345 --> 00:21:57,023
a bit of a scare,
576
00:21:57,047 --> 00:21:59,092
but, um, she's out of
the woods now, so...
577
00:21:59,116 --> 00:22:00,627
- ELIZABETH: Good.
- I wanted
578
00:22:00,651 --> 00:22:02,028
to tell you, but I
didn't get permission
579
00:22:02,052 --> 00:22:03,463
until about an hour ago.
580
00:22:03,487 --> 00:22:05,465
(ELIZABETH CHUCKLES)
- Wow. So, when's she due?
581
00:22:05,489 --> 00:22:07,567
November. Special month.
582
00:22:07,591 --> 00:22:08,835
- That's fantastic.
- RUSSELL: Fantastic.
583
00:22:08,859 --> 00:22:11,137
- Congratulations. Wow.
- DALTON: Thank you.
584
00:22:11,161 --> 00:22:12,305
And second,
585
00:22:12,329 --> 00:22:14,007
I am going to be joining UNICEF
586
00:22:14,031 --> 00:22:16,209
as its next executive director.
587
00:22:16,233 --> 00:22:17,777
- Oh!
- HENRY: Wow.
588
00:22:17,801 --> 00:22:19,145
- That's perfect. Oh!
- Yes.
589
00:22:19,169 --> 00:22:20,513
- I mean...
- Wow.
590
00:22:20,537 --> 00:22:22,015
- HENRY: That's great.
- Yeah. I'm sure
591
00:22:22,039 --> 00:22:25,251
that, uh, between the
hair and, uh, the guitar,
592
00:22:25,275 --> 00:22:26,786
you probably thought my next step
593
00:22:26,810 --> 00:22:28,321
was gonna be, uh, playing for tips
594
00:22:28,345 --> 00:22:29,856
- on the coffeehouse circuit.
- I was wondering.
595
00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:31,163
(CHUCKLES)
596
00:22:32,049 --> 00:22:33,359
Toast.
597
00:22:33,383 --> 00:22:35,668
To your new job. (CHUCKLES)
598
00:22:36,953 --> 00:22:38,364
And the next generation.
599
00:22:38,388 --> 00:22:39,905
Hear, hear.
600
00:22:40,757 --> 00:22:43,002
Our kids better procreate.
601
00:22:43,026 --> 00:22:45,071
Oh, the sooner, the better. (CHUCKLES)
602
00:22:45,095 --> 00:22:46,606
That was big news tonight.
603
00:22:46,630 --> 00:22:49,609
Yeah, seriously.
604
00:22:49,633 --> 00:22:52,351
Glad it wasn't trouble with Lydia.
605
00:22:54,538 --> 00:22:56,015
What?
606
00:22:56,039 --> 00:22:58,017
I don't know.
607
00:22:58,041 --> 00:23:01,521
I guess I was wanting some advice.
608
00:23:01,545 --> 00:23:05,291
The guy was with me every
day of the campaign.
609
00:23:05,315 --> 00:23:09,195
I just assumed it would be...
610
00:23:09,219 --> 00:23:11,330
the same while I was president.
611
00:23:11,354 --> 00:23:12,432
Well,
612
00:23:12,456 --> 00:23:14,434
I know you're not asking me,
613
00:23:14,458 --> 00:23:17,603
but that event horizon
we talked about?
614
00:23:17,627 --> 00:23:18,938
It's here.
615
00:23:18,962 --> 00:23:21,874
It's an independent judiciary, Henry.
616
00:23:21,898 --> 00:23:24,277
Article II, section 2, clause 1.
617
00:23:24,301 --> 00:23:25,878
The presidential pardon.
618
00:23:25,902 --> 00:23:29,248
You could free Valerie
with one stroke of the pen.
619
00:23:29,272 --> 00:23:31,584
And give up on answers?
620
00:23:31,608 --> 00:23:34,554
Because once she walks, that's it.
621
00:23:34,578 --> 00:23:36,889
Daisy's career is over.
622
00:23:36,913 --> 00:23:38,825
And you can forget
about finding the hackers.
623
00:23:38,849 --> 00:23:41,127
You know, the ones
who attacked our democracy?
624
00:23:41,151 --> 00:23:43,830
A democracy that depends on the press.
625
00:23:43,854 --> 00:23:45,465
You want closure?
626
00:23:45,489 --> 00:23:47,266
Something's got to give.
627
00:23:47,290 --> 00:23:48,868
Well, it won't be me.
628
00:23:48,892 --> 00:23:50,269
I'm gonna take a bath.
629
00:23:50,293 --> 00:23:52,444
Elizabeth.
630
00:23:56,366 --> 00:23:58,411
Can we do more zoo tomorrow?
631
00:23:58,435 --> 00:24:00,179
Buckles wants to see the lions.
632
00:24:00,203 --> 00:24:01,981
(CHUCKLES): Yes, let's do it.
633
00:24:02,005 --> 00:24:03,850
(ROARS) - (LAUGHS)
634
00:24:03,874 --> 00:24:05,852
Good night, Simba.
635
00:24:05,876 --> 00:24:07,653
- Mama?
- Yes?
636
00:24:07,677 --> 00:24:09,261
I like you home.
637
00:24:10,147 --> 00:24:12,658
Me, too, pumpkin.
638
00:24:12,682 --> 00:24:14,466
Good night.
639
00:24:21,057 --> 00:24:24,209
(PHONE CHIMES)
640
00:24:33,703 --> 00:24:35,581
A lot of people
are finding these revelations
641
00:24:35,605 --> 00:24:37,784
of a connection between Daisy Grant
642
00:24:37,808 --> 00:24:39,986
and an Iranian agent troubling.
643
00:24:40,010 --> 00:24:41,654
Understandably. This goes beyond
644
00:24:41,678 --> 00:24:44,090
any sense of unease
over having a weak president.
645
00:24:44,114 --> 00:24:46,025
We're talking about a McCord fangirl
646
00:24:46,049 --> 00:24:49,228
who doesn't say boo
without her boss's permission.
647
00:24:49,252 --> 00:24:51,230
The investigation
in the Senate is still ongoing,
648
00:24:51,254 --> 00:24:52,899
but it sounds like you're implying
649
00:24:52,923 --> 00:24:56,502
President McCord was responsible
for coordinating this hack.
650
00:24:56,526 --> 00:24:57,737
We're simply connecting the dots.
651
00:24:57,761 --> 00:24:59,238
When we finish,
652
00:24:59,262 --> 00:25:00,373
we're going to take action.
653
00:25:00,397 --> 00:25:01,541
NEWSWOMAN: Can you be more specific?
654
00:25:01,565 --> 00:25:03,276
Not a member of the
House, but if I were,
655
00:25:03,300 --> 00:25:04,877
I would say the facts
merit a resolution.
656
00:25:04,901 --> 00:25:06,118
NEWSWOMAN: Of impeachment?
657
00:25:07,003 --> 00:25:08,648
What else?
658
00:25:08,672 --> 00:25:10,589
(SIGHS) Oh, my God.
659
00:25:17,814 --> 00:25:19,567
Russell.
660
00:25:19,568 --> 00:25:20,864
Oh, is this about the pandas?
661
00:25:20,865 --> 00:25:23,163
Because zoo funding is
in committee next week.
662
00:25:23,164 --> 00:25:24,708
Pandas don't need my help.
663
00:25:24,732 --> 00:25:26,276
They're cute, industrious
664
00:25:26,300 --> 00:25:29,146
and, unlike you, don't crap the bed.
665
00:25:29,170 --> 00:25:30,814
Then how can I help you?
666
00:25:30,838 --> 00:25:32,950
You floated a word last night.
667
00:25:32,974 --> 00:25:34,952
Impeachment.
668
00:25:34,976 --> 00:25:38,355
Ironically, to comment on an
investigation that you leaked.
669
00:25:38,379 --> 00:25:40,124
Is that an accusation?
670
00:25:40,148 --> 00:25:41,859
Call it a warning.
671
00:25:41,883 --> 00:25:43,627
You're playing with fire.
672
00:25:43,651 --> 00:25:46,663
I'm not the one throwing
journalists in jail.
673
00:25:46,687 --> 00:25:49,600
Fine. You want to poison
674
00:25:49,624 --> 00:25:50,768
the country with a snakebite
675
00:25:50,792 --> 00:25:52,770
on a duly elected
president, be my guest.
676
00:25:52,794 --> 00:25:55,072
- You'll get slaughtered in the midterms.
- (CHUCKLES)
677
00:25:55,096 --> 00:25:56,673
I'm just a senator, Russell.
678
00:25:56,697 --> 00:25:59,209
- Impeachment starts in the House.
- Yeah.
679
00:25:59,233 --> 00:26:01,645
Where the puppets
dance to your strings.
680
00:26:01,669 --> 00:26:04,114
Don't play coy.
681
00:26:04,138 --> 00:26:06,256
We have the votes.
682
00:26:08,142 --> 00:26:09,486
Dream on.
683
00:26:09,510 --> 00:26:11,955
Two fractured parties and
a rabble of independents.
684
00:26:11,979 --> 00:26:13,757
What are the odds you can unite them
685
00:26:13,781 --> 00:26:16,393
against the woman who passed ESI?
686
00:26:16,417 --> 00:26:20,297
With Daisy Grant still employed
in the White House,
687
00:26:20,321 --> 00:26:22,939
I think our odds are just fine.
688
00:26:29,730 --> 00:26:31,708
STEVIE: Mom,
689
00:26:31,732 --> 00:26:33,310
what's on my toast?
690
00:26:33,334 --> 00:26:35,345
Uh, romanesco.
691
00:26:35,369 --> 00:26:37,247
It's like broccoli but weird.
692
00:26:37,271 --> 00:26:38,882
Oh.
693
00:26:38,906 --> 00:26:40,350
- Hmm.
- How's work?
694
00:26:40,374 --> 00:26:43,086
I don't know. Is Valerie
Guillen still in prison?
695
00:26:43,110 --> 00:26:45,155
I'm taking flack, Mom.
696
00:26:45,179 --> 00:26:46,957
It's got nothing
to do with you, Stevie.
697
00:26:46,981 --> 00:26:49,259
I work at a human rights organization,
698
00:26:49,283 --> 00:26:51,595
so it has, like,
everything to do with me.
699
00:26:51,619 --> 00:26:53,096
HENRY: Restoration complete.
700
00:26:53,120 --> 00:26:55,532
That's the fastest nose job
in Smithsonian history.
701
00:26:55,556 --> 00:26:56,700
Oh, good.
702
00:26:56,724 --> 00:26:57,801
Wait, what happened?
703
00:26:57,825 --> 00:27:00,170
Oh, it's a long story. Ask Hope.
704
00:27:00,194 --> 00:27:01,705
Where is Hope?
705
00:27:01,729 --> 00:27:03,373
I caved.
706
00:27:03,397 --> 00:27:04,908
She's at the trainer.
707
00:27:04,932 --> 00:27:07,484
- Oh.
- Conrad's on in a minute.
708
00:27:09,136 --> 00:27:11,982
Oh, uh, Dmitri's
naturalization ceremony
709
00:27:12,006 --> 00:27:13,317
is this afternoon.
710
00:27:13,341 --> 00:27:14,585
- Already?
- Yeah. 3:00
711
00:27:14,609 --> 00:27:18,021
at the district court
on Constitution Ave.
712
00:27:18,045 --> 00:27:19,623
You want to go?
713
00:27:19,647 --> 00:27:21,391
Maybe. I-I mean,
714
00:27:21,415 --> 00:27:24,161
I'm pretty tied up with this
child labor case in Senegal.
715
00:27:24,185 --> 00:27:27,764
Also, associating with a
totalitarian thought suppressor.
716
00:27:27,788 --> 00:27:30,767
Sorry. Not all of my
colleagues call you that.
717
00:27:30,791 --> 00:27:32,669
Oh, there he is. Turn it up, please.
718
00:27:32,693 --> 00:27:35,839
Mr. President, was your decision
to take this new job
719
00:27:35,863 --> 00:27:38,242
motivated by becoming a grandfather?
720
00:27:38,266 --> 00:27:40,244
Absolutely. It reminded me
721
00:27:40,268 --> 00:27:41,822
that there's nothing more important
722
00:27:41,823 --> 00:27:43,333
than working on behalf of children.
723
00:27:43,357 --> 00:27:46,370
Well, as a proud grandpa
myself, I can tell you
724
00:27:46,394 --> 00:27:48,639
it's pretty much
the only thing in life
725
00:27:48,663 --> 00:27:50,908
that's as good as people say it is,
726
00:27:50,932 --> 00:27:53,177
- so welcome to the club.
- Thank you.
727
00:27:53,201 --> 00:27:55,612
I understand you're, uh,
staying at the White House
728
00:27:55,636 --> 00:27:57,347
- during this trip.
- Yeah.
729
00:27:57,371 --> 00:27:59,383
I, uh, I didn't have enough points
730
00:27:59,407 --> 00:28:00,984
to stay at the Hilton, so... (LAUGHS)
731
00:28:01,008 --> 00:28:02,619
Well, it must be a nice change
732
00:28:02,643 --> 00:28:05,022
and a chance to catch up
with your protégé.
733
00:28:05,046 --> 00:28:06,423
You mean my successor.
734
00:28:06,447 --> 00:28:09,159
Well, President McCord is in
some hot water right now.
735
00:28:09,183 --> 00:28:10,627
I'm-I'm just wondering
736
00:28:10,651 --> 00:28:12,296
if you timed this trip
737
00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:13,964
to offer advice.
738
00:28:13,988 --> 00:28:15,466
Come on, advice? (CHUCKLES)
739
00:28:15,490 --> 00:28:18,736
The last thing Elizabeth McCord
needs is my advice.
740
00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:22,172
Her judgment is impeccable
and her honor, unimpeachable.
741
00:28:22,196 --> 00:28:25,275
And yes, I said unimpeachable,
Senator Hanson.
742
00:28:25,299 --> 00:28:26,944
- (CHUCKLES)
- Because
743
00:28:26,968 --> 00:28:28,378
I trust her more than I trust myself,
744
00:28:28,402 --> 00:28:31,215
and if anyone can get through
this farce of an investigation,
745
00:28:31,239 --> 00:28:32,983
it is she.
746
00:28:33,007 --> 00:28:36,553
And she doesn't need any input
from me or from any of you.
747
00:28:36,577 --> 00:28:39,056
Because if anyone can handle
this sexist crap, it's she.
748
00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:41,325
- I hear you, Mr. President.
- I'm sorry.
749
00:28:41,349 --> 00:28:44,294
I, uh... Baseless attacks
on good people kind of...
750
00:28:44,318 --> 00:28:45,729
set me off, I guess.
751
00:28:45,753 --> 00:28:47,397
SCHIEFFER: Well, I know what you mean.
Maybe it's time
752
00:28:47,421 --> 00:28:50,400
- for a song.
- Thought you'd never ask.
753
00:28:50,424 --> 00:28:52,636
Uh...
754
00:28:52,660 --> 00:28:54,638
This whole record is...
755
00:28:54,662 --> 00:28:56,073
It's for children.
756
00:28:56,097 --> 00:28:58,609
Um, but this lullaby,
757
00:28:58,633 --> 00:29:02,552

(SIGHS)
769
00:30:06,267 --> 00:30:08,879
I told Olivia to draw
up a presidential
770
00:30:08,903 --> 00:30:10,714
pardon for Valerie Guillen.
771
00:30:10,738 --> 00:30:12,649
She'll be released today, so...
772
00:30:12,673 --> 00:30:14,357
I'm glad.
773
00:30:15,743 --> 00:30:18,088
But I know what it cost you.
774
00:30:18,112 --> 00:30:20,363
I tried to push you away from me.
775
00:30:21,382 --> 00:30:24,161
Don't ever let me get away with that.
776
00:30:24,185 --> 00:30:25,863
I'm not gonna make it through this
777
00:30:25,887 --> 00:30:28,599
if you don't tell me
when you think I'm wrong,
778
00:30:28,623 --> 00:30:31,001
especially when I'm not listening.
779
00:30:31,025 --> 00:30:33,403
Deal.
780
00:30:33,427 --> 00:30:37,074
But on that note, there is
something I need to share.
781
00:30:37,098 --> 00:30:40,110
Oh, please, God, make it be chocolate.
782
00:30:40,134 --> 00:30:42,604
You know the way Conrad said
he could trust you completely?
783
00:30:43,571 --> 00:30:45,883
I'm not sure you can
say the same about Daisy.
784
00:30:45,907 --> 00:30:47,618
And I do have chocolate.
785
00:30:47,642 --> 00:30:49,793
Well...
786
00:30:52,580 --> 00:30:54,758
What do you mean... about Daisy?
787
00:30:54,782 --> 00:30:57,794
She accepted the flash drive
from Claudine Bernard.
788
00:30:57,818 --> 00:31:00,497
She could still be innocent.
789
00:31:00,521 --> 00:31:03,533
It's not a question of guilt.
It's a question of judgment.
790
00:31:03,557 --> 00:31:05,802
If you were in her shoes,
what would you have done?
791
00:31:05,826 --> 00:31:07,804
- No idea.
- Gone to the FBI.
792
00:31:07,828 --> 00:31:09,606
Even if it cost you an election.
793
00:31:09,630 --> 00:31:10,807
Come on, babe.
794
00:31:10,831 --> 00:31:12,910
If there's one thing
I know about you...
795
00:31:12,934 --> 00:31:14,978
you are scrupulously honest.
796
00:31:15,002 --> 00:31:18,248
While I appreciate that...
797
00:31:18,272 --> 00:31:20,423
it's not perfectly analogous.
798
00:31:22,109 --> 00:31:24,454
Daisy thought she was protecting me,
799
00:31:24,478 --> 00:31:27,824
and the country from Miller.
800
00:31:27,848 --> 00:31:29,826
It's true.
801
00:31:29,850 --> 00:31:32,996
But... (SIGHS)
802
00:31:33,020 --> 00:31:35,899
the inconvenient thing about ethics
803
00:31:35,923 --> 00:31:38,001
is they can't be cherry-picked.
804
00:31:38,025 --> 00:31:40,771
Daisy talked herself into
doing something that was wrong.
805
00:31:40,795 --> 00:31:43,646
Don't let that happen to you.
806
00:31:44,532 --> 00:31:46,916
She's more than an employee.
807
00:31:48,269 --> 00:31:50,247
She's my friend.
808
00:31:50,271 --> 00:31:52,422
Then forgive her.
809
00:31:54,008 --> 00:31:56,086
But you're the president,
810
00:31:56,110 --> 00:31:58,261
and you have to let her go.
811
00:32:02,182 --> 00:32:05,446
Fortitude, wisdom and virtue.
812
00:32:05,447 --> 00:32:08,821
These were all names
that Conrad Dalton
813
00:32:08,822 --> 00:32:12,545
gave to live goats he released
in an Army locker room
814
00:32:12,546 --> 00:32:14,724
during his time at the
U.S. Naval Academy.

(ALL CHUCKLING)
816
00:32:16,683 --> 00:32:17,927
That young man
817
00:32:17,951 --> 00:32:21,097
probably never imagined
that those same
818
00:32:21,121 --> 00:32:24,000
three adjectives would be given to him
819
00:32:24,024 --> 00:32:26,402
without any irony years later,
820
00:32:26,426 --> 00:32:28,338
after a presidency that saw us through
821
00:32:28,362 --> 00:32:29,639
some of the greatest dangers
822
00:32:29,663 --> 00:32:32,909
the world had to offer.
823
00:32:32,933 --> 00:32:35,211
So it is with immense honor
824
00:32:35,235 --> 00:32:38,181
and more than a little anticipation
825
00:32:38,205 --> 00:32:41,150
that I dedicate the
official portrait of
826
00:32:41,174 --> 00:32:44,160
President Conrad Joseph Dalton.
827
00:33:00,060 --> 00:33:02,672
Thank you, Madam President.
828
00:33:02,696 --> 00:33:05,708
Always nice to have a reminder of, uh,
829
00:33:05,732 --> 00:33:07,810
how the office ages you.

thanks for bringing Dwight over here.
833
00:33:12,873 --> 00:33:15,385
I, uh, used to enjoy communing
with him back when I lived
834
00:33:15,409 --> 00:33:16,586
in this place.
835
00:33:16,610 --> 00:33:18,488
On July 8, 1948,
836
00:33:18,512 --> 00:33:22,458
four and a half years before
he would become president,
837
00:33:22,482 --> 00:33:26,362
General Dwight David Eisenhower
stood before the U.N.
838
00:33:26,386 --> 00:33:29,565
and spoke out against world hunger.
839
00:33:29,589 --> 00:33:32,201
When children are starving, he asked,
840
00:33:32,225 --> 00:33:35,605
"How can we in the future expect
them to be apostles of peace?"
841
00:33:35,629 --> 00:33:38,241
Today, in this time of
renewed hate and violence,
842
00:33:38,265 --> 00:33:40,243
that mission is more
important than ever.
