1
00:00:00,796 --> 00:00:02,445
Previously on "Designated Survivor"...
2
00:00:02,448 --> 00:00:04,646
No, I've been posted full
time to the British Embassy...
3
00:00:04,648 --> 00:00:06,988
Effective immediately.
4
00:00:08,721 --> 00:00:11,324
Did you take a vacation on St. Lucia?
5
00:00:11,327 --> 00:00:15,329
Every year, my daughter and
I take one trip together.
6
00:00:15,331 --> 00:00:17,131
This year, it was St. Lucia.
7
00:00:17,133 --> 00:00:19,554
"You're being subpoenaed
by John Foerstel"? For what?
8
00:00:19,557 --> 00:00:21,869
Foerstel's found a
St. Lucian bank account
9
00:00:21,871 --> 00:00:24,387
set up by Eric Little six months ago...
10
00:00:24,390 --> 00:00:25,839
in my name.
11
00:00:25,841 --> 00:00:27,257
I'm being set up.
12
00:00:27,260 --> 00:00:29,043
Where are we at with
Little's murder investigation?
13
00:00:29,045 --> 00:00:30,577
No developments on that front, sir.
14
00:00:30,579 --> 00:00:31,645
Have you been able to tie
15
00:00:31,648 --> 00:00:33,213
Eric Little to Patrick Lloyd yet?
16
00:00:33,215 --> 00:00:35,315
There is no evidence
that connects the two.
17
00:00:35,317 --> 00:00:37,076
You're the greatest
thing since sliced bread.
18
00:00:37,078 --> 00:00:38,786
And bread is great,
19
00:00:38,788 --> 00:00:40,184
fundamentally great, like water.
20
00:00:40,187 --> 00:00:41,286
Or air.
21
00:00:41,289 --> 00:00:42,210
Or you.
22
00:00:43,835 --> 00:00:45,492
Good evening, Officer.
Is there a problem?
23
00:00:45,494 --> 00:00:46,898
Step out of the vehicle, sir.
24
00:00:46,901 --> 00:00:48,233
The charges were dismissed.
25
00:00:48,236 --> 00:00:50,732
But my duty to inform
the President wasn't.
26
00:01:21,295 --> 00:01:22,763
Three-letter day.
27
00:01:22,765 --> 00:01:24,231
Every month, the White House receives
28
00:01:24,233 --> 00:01:25,574
10,000 letters asking for help.
29
00:01:25,577 --> 00:01:26,500
The President chooses
30
00:01:26,502 --> 00:01:27,656
three of those letters to answer.
31
00:01:27,658 --> 00:01:28,802
And how does that involve us?
32
00:01:28,804 --> 00:01:30,404
The senior staff
investigates the requests
33
00:01:30,406 --> 00:01:31,538
and advises the President.
34
00:01:31,540 --> 00:01:32,597
- That's exciting.
- Yeah.
35
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:34,108
A three-letter day can
be a red-letter day.
36
00:01:34,110 --> 00:01:35,876
- I'm not doing this.
- For some.
37
00:01:35,878 --> 00:01:36,918
I don't even like letters.
38
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:38,445
I don't read them. I don't write them.
39
00:01:38,447 --> 00:01:40,300
Whose asinine idea was this, anyway?
40
00:01:40,303 --> 00:01:41,281
The President's.
41
00:01:41,283 --> 00:01:42,741
- I'm in.
- Attaboy.
42
00:01:42,744 --> 00:01:44,017
Three-letter day, amigo.
43
00:01:44,019 --> 00:01:45,379
Oh, somebody please shoot me.
44
00:01:45,381 --> 00:01:47,521
- Hey.
- Hi.
45
00:01:47,523 --> 00:01:50,557
Today is not just simply symbolic.
46
00:01:50,559 --> 00:01:51,925
It matters, because today,
47
00:01:51,927 --> 00:01:53,733
we are gonna truly show the electorate
48
00:01:53,736 --> 00:01:56,463
by trying to answer some of
their more specific requests.
49
00:01:56,465 --> 00:01:58,749
Aaron and Emily,
50
00:01:58,752 --> 00:02:00,878
this letter was written by
the widow of Daniel Goff,
51
00:02:00,881 --> 00:02:01,983
Sergeant First Class.
52
00:02:01,986 --> 00:02:03,062
She would like to know why her husband
53
00:02:03,064 --> 00:02:04,392
was denied the Medal of Honor
54
00:02:04,395 --> 00:02:06,272
for his ultimate sacrifice and bravery
55
00:02:06,275 --> 00:02:08,108
during Operation Enduring Freedom.
56
00:02:08,111 --> 00:02:09,277
- On it, sir.
- Absolutely.
57
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:10,544
Thank you.
58
00:02:10,546 --> 00:02:12,112
Seth and Lyor,
59
00:02:12,114 --> 00:02:13,947
you're gonna help Mr. Adamson
60
00:02:13,949 --> 00:02:15,816
figure out what's killing his bees.
61
00:02:15,818 --> 00:02:17,785
- Bees?
- Yes, bees.
62
00:02:17,787 --> 00:02:19,419
They're an indicator species, Seth.
63
00:02:19,421 --> 00:02:22,030
They pollinate over 80% of our crops.
64
00:02:22,033 --> 00:02:23,457
They die, plants die,
65
00:02:23,459 --> 00:02:25,159
and man will shortly follow.
66
00:02:25,161 --> 00:02:27,533
So it is in our interest
to do whatever we can
67
00:02:27,536 --> 00:02:29,413
to figure out what the
hell is killing his bees.
68
00:02:29,415 --> 00:02:30,330
Thank you, sir.
69
00:02:30,332 --> 00:02:32,099
This is a solemn honor.
70
00:02:32,101 --> 00:02:33,361
I'm sure you'll do great.
71
00:02:35,604 --> 00:02:37,471
- Jackpot.
- Snake eyes.
72
00:02:37,473 --> 00:02:40,073
Kendra, this is a request for a pardon
73
00:02:40,075 --> 00:02:41,783
in a federal death penalty case.
74
00:02:41,786 --> 00:02:45,078
There hasn't been a federal
execution since 2003.
75
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:46,980
He's scheduled to die
by lethal injection
76
00:02:46,982 --> 00:02:48,315
this Friday in Petersburg.
77
00:02:48,317 --> 00:02:49,334
An anonymous letter
78
00:02:49,337 --> 00:02:51,185
postmarked Winter Haven, Florida,
79
00:02:51,188 --> 00:02:53,522
seeking clemency for Chandler Dern?
80
00:02:53,525 --> 00:02:54,988
He was a pharmacist
81
00:02:54,990 --> 00:02:58,158
convicted of killing
a DEA agent in 2001.
82
00:02:58,160 --> 00:02:59,593
This writer says
83
00:02:59,595 --> 00:03:02,462
that Dern appealed his sentence
84
00:03:02,464 --> 00:03:03,861
but not his conviction.
85
00:03:03,864 --> 00:03:05,332
That's the part that caught my eye.
86
00:03:05,334 --> 00:03:06,500
Strange, right?
87
00:03:06,502 --> 00:03:08,268
Unheard of, sir, given the stakes.
88
00:03:08,270 --> 00:03:09,870
I'm not inclined to impose my judgment
89
00:03:09,872 --> 00:03:10,671
over that of a jury,
90
00:03:10,673 --> 00:03:12,172
but if you were to find anything
91
00:03:12,174 --> 00:03:13,717
to indicate manifest injustice,
92
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:15,876
- I would want to know.
- I'll get cracking.
93
00:03:15,878 --> 00:03:17,225
You've got 72 hours.
94
00:03:17,228 --> 00:03:18,345
Understood.
95
00:03:18,347 --> 00:03:19,513
Sir, we have another issue.
96
00:03:19,515 --> 00:03:20,547
There's been a development
97
00:03:20,549 --> 00:03:22,282
in regards to your wife's subpoena.
98
00:03:22,284 --> 00:03:23,650
We should talk.
99
00:03:23,652 --> 00:03:26,887
Foerstel's offering to
seal the proceedings?
100
00:03:26,889 --> 00:03:27,855
With one huge condition.
101
00:03:27,857 --> 00:03:29,957
That you don't move
to quash your subpoena.
102
00:03:29,959 --> 00:03:30,791
So, an inducement...
103
00:03:30,793 --> 00:03:33,170
Secrecy in exchange for cooperation.
104
00:03:33,173 --> 00:03:34,228
Wait a second.
105
00:03:34,230 --> 00:03:36,496
If Alex appears and her
answers lead to an indictment,
106
00:03:36,498 --> 00:03:38,905
- that will go public.
- It's a calculated risk, sir.
107
00:03:38,908 --> 00:03:40,567
What are the odds that
you can get this tossed?
108
00:03:40,569 --> 00:03:41,783
It's a coin flip, ma'am.
109
00:03:41,786 --> 00:03:43,637
The conspiracy case against you
110
00:03:43,639 --> 00:03:45,038
is wildly circumstantial
111
00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:46,236
with one exception.
112
00:03:46,239 --> 00:03:48,712
The existence of the account
in St. Lucia in your name
113
00:03:48,715 --> 00:03:50,344
that Eric Little opened is damning.
114
00:03:50,346 --> 00:03:51,545
And unless Hannah Wells
115
00:03:51,547 --> 00:03:53,046
can find the banker who set it up,
116
00:03:53,048 --> 00:03:54,648
we cannot clear you.
117
00:03:58,220 --> 00:04:01,154
The banker is the only
person who can prove
118
00:04:01,156 --> 00:04:02,890
that the First Lady's St. Lucia account
119
00:04:02,892 --> 00:04:04,224
is a Lloyd set-up.
120
00:04:04,226 --> 00:04:06,393
- They'll never give you his name.
- We'll see.
121
00:04:06,395 --> 00:04:08,028
I can be very persuasive.
122
00:04:09,031 --> 00:04:10,496
Hello. I'm Miss Sloane.
123
00:04:10,499 --> 00:04:11,967
I'm here to see Mr. Brewer?
124
00:04:11,970 --> 00:04:13,165
You would like to open an
125
00:04:13,168 --> 00:04:14,934
- account in St. Lucia?
- Yes.
126
00:04:14,937 --> 00:04:17,030
- On someone else's behalf?
- Yes.
127
00:04:17,033 --> 00:04:19,738
That is an unusual third-party
service we do not offer.
128
00:04:19,741 --> 00:04:22,009
I have it from a trusted friend
129
00:04:22,011 --> 00:04:23,194
that one of your officers
130
00:04:23,197 --> 00:04:25,913
- does, in fact, offer the service.
- Is that so?
131
00:04:25,915 --> 00:04:27,957
If you could just put me in
touch with the right person,
132
00:04:27,959 --> 00:04:29,616
I'd be happy to pay a premium.
133
00:04:29,618 --> 00:04:31,394
I'm sorry, but we are
unable to help you.
134
00:04:31,397 --> 00:04:33,020
If you could just give me
the name of the officer, I...
135
00:04:33,022 --> 00:04:34,121
That will be all, Miss Sloane.
136
00:04:34,123 --> 00:04:35,319
Have a good day.
137
00:04:54,280 --> 00:04:55,709
Oh! Ah!
138
00:04:55,712 --> 00:04:57,144
Now, you shouldn't play with guns
139
00:04:57,147 --> 00:04:58,538
if you don't know how to use them.
140
00:04:58,541 --> 00:05:00,004
Me? I know how to use them.
141
00:05:00,006 --> 00:05:01,315
Now, would you like to give me
142
00:05:01,317 --> 00:05:04,051
the name of that bank officer?
143
00:05:04,053 --> 00:05:05,752
Quashing this thing
144
00:05:05,754 --> 00:05:07,087
is gonna come down to
the judge of the day.
145
00:05:07,089 --> 00:05:07,959
Yes, sir.
146
00:05:07,962 --> 00:05:09,589
And the optics of giving
the First Lady a pass
147
00:05:09,591 --> 00:05:10,958
could weigh heavily on them.
148
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:12,326
What should weigh heavily on them
149
00:05:12,328 --> 00:05:14,628
- is that this is a damn setup.
- Alex.
150
00:05:14,630 --> 00:05:15,944
We're moving to quash, Tom.
151
00:05:17,891 --> 00:05:19,925
Kendra, could you give
us a moment, please?
152
00:05:19,928 --> 00:05:21,214
We need to discuss this.
153
00:05:21,217 --> 00:05:22,937
- Yes, sir.
- Thank you.
154
00:05:25,108 --> 00:05:27,464
This witch hunt has
been going on for months.
155
00:05:27,467 --> 00:05:28,275
I know.
156
00:05:28,277 --> 00:05:30,477
I don't want to give
Foerstel any more oxygen.
157
00:05:30,479 --> 00:05:32,871
Every procedural maneuver,
every stratagem...
158
00:05:32,874 --> 00:05:34,348
We'll avail ourselves of all of it.
159
00:05:34,350 --> 00:05:36,316
That's only putting off the inevitable.
160
00:05:36,318 --> 00:05:37,417
Foerstel's not gonna back down
161
00:05:37,419 --> 00:05:39,691
just because you quote the
Federal Rules of Procedure.
162
00:05:39,694 --> 00:05:41,519
It's our only viable tactic, Tom.
163
00:05:41,522 --> 00:05:43,690
It's what we've been doing
so far... playing defense.
164
00:05:43,692 --> 00:05:45,158
And look where it's gotten us.
165
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:46,493
Closer to the precipice.
166
00:05:46,495 --> 00:05:48,128
Well, then, let's step back.
167
00:05:48,130 --> 00:05:49,296
Alex.
168
00:05:49,298 --> 00:05:50,597
You are a fighter.
169
00:05:50,599 --> 00:05:53,500
That's one of the many
things I love about you.
170
00:05:53,502 --> 00:05:54,634
But we're not fighting this.
171
00:05:54,636 --> 00:05:55,502
We're hiding,
172
00:05:55,504 --> 00:05:57,104
pretending like it's gonna blow over.
173
00:05:57,106 --> 00:05:58,038
Well, it's not.
174
00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:00,173
This storm has been
coming at us for a while.
175
00:06:00,175 --> 00:06:01,871
We tried to outrun it, but we couldn't.
176
00:06:01,874 --> 00:06:03,176
So we take a different tact.
177
00:06:03,178 --> 00:06:05,323
We dig in. We fight this thing.
178
00:06:06,991 --> 00:06:09,493
S02E09
Three-Letter Day
179
00:06:09,494 --> 00:06:14,436
- Synced and corrected by VitoSilans -
-- www.Addic7ed.com --
180
00:06:18,253 --> 00:06:20,523
I roll over this morning
and you're not there.
181
00:06:20,525 --> 00:06:22,368
That can really give a guy a complex.
182
00:06:22,371 --> 00:06:23,697
Well, you needed your beauty sleep.
183
00:06:23,699 --> 00:06:25,753
Well, I'm saying I could've
helped you track down the banker
184
00:06:25,755 --> 00:06:27,189
who helped frame the First Lady.
185
00:06:27,192 --> 00:06:29,068
And I'm saying it wasn't a two-man job.
186
00:06:29,070 --> 00:06:31,704
You, Hannah Wells, are a lone wolf.
187
00:06:31,706 --> 00:06:34,507
Who hunted down the banker's name.
188
00:06:34,509 --> 00:06:36,509
Touché.
189
00:06:36,511 --> 00:06:38,411
Anything on our rogue banker?
190
00:06:38,413 --> 00:06:41,446
TSA confirms Alfonso Lang
191
00:06:41,449 --> 00:06:44,006
flew from Hewanorra to
Dulles four days ago.
192
00:06:44,009 --> 00:06:44,998
Does he have a sheet?
193
00:06:45,001 --> 00:06:46,300
A lot of raps for money laundering,
194
00:06:46,302 --> 00:06:47,345
all of which he's beaten.
195
00:06:47,348 --> 00:06:48,804
Otherwise he'd be on the no-fly list.
196
00:06:48,806 --> 00:06:50,267
You got a 4-1-1 on his location?
197
00:06:50,270 --> 00:06:52,691
Nothing past a contact
at Interpol telling me
198
00:06:52,693 --> 00:06:54,560
he meets with clients in
the District pretty regularly
199
00:06:54,562 --> 00:06:55,694
to set up tax scams.
200
00:06:55,696 --> 00:06:57,263
Well, I'll contact the Embassy
201
00:06:57,265 --> 00:06:58,631
to see if he's on one
of their watch lists
202
00:06:58,633 --> 00:06:59,670
and tripped a wire.
203
00:06:59,673 --> 00:07:01,267
St. Lucia's a British protectorate.
204
00:07:01,270 --> 00:07:03,029
Actually, St. Lucia
is a sovereign nation.
205
00:07:03,032 --> 00:07:04,036
Part of the Commonwealth.
206
00:07:04,038 --> 00:07:05,104
Well done, Charles.
207
00:07:05,106 --> 00:07:06,138
You should go on "Jeopardy!"
208
00:07:06,140 --> 00:07:07,307
And you should...
209
00:07:08,650 --> 00:07:10,071
go on it too.
210
00:07:11,212 --> 00:07:12,412
Hey, Kendra.
211
00:07:14,315 --> 00:07:16,449
Yeah, of course. I'll be right there.
212
00:07:16,451 --> 00:07:17,616
The White House Counsel
213
00:07:17,618 --> 00:07:19,452
needs help with an urgent matter.
214
00:07:19,454 --> 00:07:20,314
No problem.
215
00:07:20,317 --> 00:07:21,587
I'll call you as soon
as I find anything.
216
00:07:21,589 --> 00:07:22,721
All right.
217
00:07:22,723 --> 00:07:24,623
Play nice, boys.
218
00:07:34,689 --> 00:07:36,569
No, I don't know who sent it.
219
00:07:36,571 --> 00:07:38,637
But every word is true. I'm innocent.
220
00:07:38,639 --> 00:07:40,239
We reviewed your file.
221
00:07:40,241 --> 00:07:41,657
You were convicted of murdering
222
00:07:41,660 --> 00:07:44,510
a DEA agent named Carl Marley in 2001.
223
00:07:44,512 --> 00:07:46,111
A Ketamine sting gone bad.
224
00:07:46,113 --> 00:07:47,780
The prosecutor convinced the jury
225
00:07:47,782 --> 00:07:49,682
that your pharmacy was
in financial trouble.
226
00:07:49,684 --> 00:07:51,183
And that I was trying to sell Ketamine
227
00:07:51,185 --> 00:07:52,318
on the black market
228
00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:53,686
when I never even jaywalked.
229
00:07:53,688 --> 00:07:56,255
Marley's body was found
in a park near your store.
230
00:07:56,257 --> 00:07:58,491
Shot in the face with a
gun that was never located.
231
00:07:58,493 --> 00:08:00,259
Traces of his blood
were found the next day
232
00:08:00,261 --> 00:08:01,527
on your storage room floor.
233
00:08:01,529 --> 00:08:03,165
20 people were in that room every day.
234
00:08:03,168 --> 00:08:04,534
Anyone could've dragged it in.
235
00:08:04,537 --> 00:08:06,337
What about your trial lawyer, Mr. Dern?
236
00:08:06,340 --> 00:08:07,500
Can we talk to him?
237
00:08:07,502 --> 00:08:08,501
No.
238
00:08:08,503 --> 00:08:10,503
He died three years ago.
239
00:08:10,505 --> 00:08:12,538
But he was pretty
worthless when he was alive.
240
00:08:12,540 --> 00:08:14,329
And how much money did you have left
241
00:08:14,332 --> 00:08:15,341
after the trial?
242
00:08:15,343 --> 00:08:17,476
As it turned out,
243
00:08:17,478 --> 00:08:20,546
just enough to appeal the sentence.
244
00:08:20,548 --> 00:08:25,284
Mr. Dern, this was a
highly circumstantial case.
245
00:08:25,286 --> 00:08:28,287
Your lawyer did a bad job.
246
00:08:28,289 --> 00:08:30,189
We're going to look into this for you.
247
00:08:30,191 --> 00:08:32,324
That's great.
248
00:08:32,326 --> 00:08:34,907
But I believe I've exhausted my appeals.
249
00:08:34,910 --> 00:08:36,195
It wouldn't be an appeal.
250
00:08:36,197 --> 00:08:37,553
It would be a commutation.
251
00:08:37,556 --> 00:08:39,023
And if the President were to grant that,
252
00:08:39,025 --> 00:08:40,466
I wouldn't have words.
253
00:08:40,468 --> 00:08:42,485
But I've been waiting for
justice for a long time,
254
00:08:42,488 --> 00:08:43,636
and it's never come.
255
00:08:43,638 --> 00:08:47,150
Hope is a dangerous thing.
256
00:08:47,153 --> 00:08:48,571
I don't want to die a coward
257
00:08:48,574 --> 00:08:51,409
praying for a reprieve
that's never coming.
258
00:08:51,412 --> 00:08:53,904
That's not a legacy I
want for my children.
259
00:08:53,907 --> 00:08:55,373
Then don't pray.
260
00:08:55,376 --> 00:08:56,649
Prepare.
261
00:08:56,651 --> 00:08:58,321
And let us do our thing.
262
00:08:58,324 --> 00:09:00,718
Chandler Dern has two master's degrees.
263
00:09:00,721 --> 00:09:03,188
Does it make any sense
to you that a lawyer,
264
00:09:03,190 --> 00:09:04,723
even a... a crooked one,
265
00:09:04,725 --> 00:09:05,591
could convince him
266
00:09:05,593 --> 00:09:07,560
that it was a good idea not to appeal?
267
00:09:07,562 --> 00:09:08,787
Not even a little bit.
268
00:09:08,790 --> 00:09:10,529
He's got a son in Gaithersburg.
269
00:09:10,531 --> 00:09:12,865
Let's see what he has to say.
270
00:09:12,867 --> 00:09:14,618
Frank, thank you for talking to us.
271
00:09:14,621 --> 00:09:16,796
I'm thrilled that you're looking
into my father's sentence.
272
00:09:16,798 --> 00:09:18,041
Do you really think there's a chance
273
00:09:18,043 --> 00:09:19,438
the President might step in?
274
00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:21,206
It depends on our investigation.
275
00:09:21,208 --> 00:09:22,241
How can I help?
276
00:09:22,243 --> 00:09:23,242
Can you think of any reason
277
00:09:23,244 --> 00:09:25,678
why your father wouldn't
be forthcoming with us?
278
00:09:25,681 --> 00:09:27,246
What did he tell you?
279
00:09:27,248 --> 00:09:28,581
Oh, it's not what he told us.
280
00:09:28,583 --> 00:09:30,049
It's what we're asking you to tell us.
281
00:09:30,051 --> 00:09:31,478
You know what's interesting, Frank?
282
00:09:31,481 --> 00:09:33,185
You're very devoted to your father.
283
00:09:33,187 --> 00:09:34,186
Visitor logs at the prison
284
00:09:34,188 --> 00:09:35,888
say that you're in there
twice a week to see him.
285
00:09:35,890 --> 00:09:37,456
But your younger sister Tracy
286
00:09:37,458 --> 00:09:39,091
hasn't been to see him in 16 years,
287
00:09:39,093 --> 00:09:40,660
and we're wondering why.
288
00:09:42,530 --> 00:09:44,826
My mom died when I was 6.
289
00:09:44,829 --> 00:09:47,266
I was 17 when they took him away,
290
00:09:47,268 --> 00:09:50,536
and I got through it.
291
00:09:50,538 --> 00:09:52,568
I set up a successful
auto-repair business.
292
00:09:52,571 --> 00:09:54,273
Tracy, she wasn't so lucky.
293
00:09:54,275 --> 00:09:57,409
But my dad, he to...
294
00:09:57,411 --> 00:09:59,745
He told us to always put family first.
295
00:09:59,747 --> 00:10:01,280
I'm... I'm not talking about Tracy.
296
00:10:01,282 --> 00:10:02,852
All right, we don't have time for games.
297
00:10:02,854 --> 00:10:04,388
Your father's life is on the line.
298
00:10:06,204 --> 00:10:10,225
My sister, she's always
had problems with drugs.
299
00:10:10,228 --> 00:10:11,061
Back in the day,
300
00:10:11,064 --> 00:10:12,891
she was hanging out with
some pretty bad people,
301
00:10:12,893 --> 00:10:14,627
and I think that my father was afraid
302
00:10:14,630 --> 00:10:17,368
that his investigation
would somehow implicate her.
303
00:10:17,371 --> 00:10:19,071
Were those people used as a defense
304
00:10:19,074 --> 00:10:20,106
in your father's trial?
305
00:10:20,109 --> 00:10:21,439
No, my dad wouldn't allow that.
306
00:10:21,442 --> 00:10:23,109
- Where can we find your sister?
- No.
307
00:10:23,112 --> 00:10:24,570
If he knew that I told you any of this,
308
00:10:24,572 --> 00:10:25,571
he would disown me.
309
00:10:25,573 --> 00:10:28,478
Frank, your father is
about to be put to death.
310
00:10:28,481 --> 00:10:30,545
I don't think disowning
you is the issue here.
311
00:10:34,988 --> 00:10:36,948
Your husband was very
handsome, Mrs. Goff.
312
00:10:36,951 --> 00:10:38,751
Thank you.
313
00:10:38,753 --> 00:10:40,446
Daniel was my everything.
314
00:10:40,449 --> 00:10:42,855
The President was moved
by your letter, ma'am.
315
00:10:42,857 --> 00:10:44,467
We wonder if you could tell us more.
316
00:10:44,470 --> 00:10:49,194
Daniel was sent to Kandahar
in 2013 to battle ISIL.
317
00:10:49,196 --> 00:10:52,464
- Part of the international peacekeeping force.
- Yes.
318
00:10:52,466 --> 00:10:55,200
And one of the first
American casualties.
319
00:10:55,202 --> 00:10:56,435
At his funeral,
320
00:10:56,437 --> 00:10:58,671
one of his soldiers,
Corporal Mankiewicz,
321
00:10:58,673 --> 00:11:00,673
told me Daniel single-handedly
322
00:11:00,675 --> 00:11:02,341
kept the insurgents at bay
323
00:11:02,343 --> 00:11:03,946
until help could arrive.
324
00:11:03,949 --> 00:11:05,182
He stopped them
325
00:11:05,185 --> 00:11:07,285
from overrunning the American position.
326
00:11:07,288 --> 00:11:09,781
Sounds like conspicuous bravery.
327
00:11:09,784 --> 00:11:10,983
I think so.
328
00:11:10,985 --> 00:11:14,446
But I wrote his C.O. Colonel Baines.
329
00:11:14,449 --> 00:11:15,983
And he ignored me.
330
00:11:18,492 --> 00:11:20,559
Uh...
331
00:11:20,561 --> 00:11:23,829
12 letters over the past 4 years,
332
00:11:23,831 --> 00:11:25,531
and he didn't answer one.
333
00:11:25,533 --> 00:11:26,865
Daniel once told me
334
00:11:26,867 --> 00:11:29,189
Special Forces was like family.
335
00:11:29,192 --> 00:11:31,509
But this is not how you treat family.
336
00:11:33,808 --> 00:11:38,377
Our son Danny Jr. Is 7 now,
337
00:11:38,379 --> 00:11:41,228
asking about his father.
338
00:11:41,231 --> 00:11:42,997
I would like to be able to tell him
339
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:44,290
his dad was a war hero
340
00:11:44,293 --> 00:11:47,318
and not just some stranger
who died 10,000 miles away.
341
00:11:50,637 --> 00:11:52,170
Ma'am, on behalf of the President,
342
00:11:52,173 --> 00:11:53,892
we promise to look into this.
343
00:11:53,894 --> 00:11:55,728
Thank you.
344
00:12:00,568 --> 00:12:03,402
Sergeant Goff's unit
was ambushed in Kandahar.
345
00:12:03,404 --> 00:12:05,037
Mortars. RPGs. Machine guns.
346
00:12:05,039 --> 00:12:06,735
They were pinned down for hours.
347
00:12:06,738 --> 00:12:08,071
Took a lot of casualties.
348
00:12:08,074 --> 00:12:09,519
Sounds like you deserve a medal
349
00:12:09,522 --> 00:12:10,876
for even coming through
that, Colonel Baines.
350
00:12:10,878 --> 00:12:11,923
I agree.
351
00:12:11,926 --> 00:12:13,287
But Goff wasn't there.
352
00:12:13,290 --> 00:12:14,880
Where was he?
353
00:12:14,882 --> 00:12:17,049
He was doing recon in
the Kabul Dwarza district.
354
00:12:17,051 --> 00:12:18,050
It's a click away.
355
00:12:18,052 --> 00:12:19,393
That's where the IED took him out.
356
00:12:19,395 --> 00:12:21,448
Did you explain this to
Sergeant Goff's widow?
357
00:12:21,449 --> 00:12:22,282
Repeatedly.
358
00:12:22,285 --> 00:12:23,422
But she kept writing.
359
00:12:23,424 --> 00:12:24,723
She's not the first widow
360
00:12:24,725 --> 00:12:26,291
that wants recognition for her husband,
361
00:12:26,293 --> 00:12:28,029
but facts are facts.
362
00:12:28,032 --> 00:12:30,110
After some time, I
had to stop responding.
363
00:12:30,113 --> 00:12:32,030
Were there any other
witnesses to this firefight?
364
00:12:32,032 --> 00:12:33,365
Just Corporal Mankiewicz.
365
00:12:33,368 --> 00:12:35,734
He's the one that put the
idea of a medal in her ear.
366
00:12:38,606 --> 00:12:40,773
So where's Corporal Mankiewicz now?
367
00:12:40,775 --> 00:12:41,874
He's dead, sir.
368
00:12:41,876 --> 00:12:43,976
He committed suicide a year
after leaving the service.
369
00:12:43,978 --> 00:12:44,901
Well, according to this,
370
00:12:44,903 --> 00:12:47,431
he was the only potential witness left.
371
00:12:47,434 --> 00:12:48,708
So I guess that's that, then.
372
00:12:49,917 --> 00:12:51,717
Mike, is there something
you want to add?
373
00:12:51,719 --> 00:12:53,318
It's not appropriate, sir.
374
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:54,753
It is if I'm asking.
375
00:12:54,755 --> 00:12:56,955
It's just... that was Goff's unit.
376
00:12:56,957 --> 00:12:58,014
It doesn't make sense
377
00:12:58,017 --> 00:12:59,458
he'd be a click away from his men
378
00:12:59,460 --> 00:13:00,659
if they were expecting hostiles,
379
00:13:00,661 --> 00:13:01,894
which they would've been.
380
00:13:01,896 --> 00:13:03,896
So you think Colonel Baines is mistaken.
381
00:13:03,898 --> 00:13:06,331
In my opinion, sir.
382
00:13:07,968 --> 00:13:09,990
Mike served six years Special Forces.
383
00:13:09,993 --> 00:13:11,970
If he doesn't think
something's adding up,
384
00:13:11,972 --> 00:13:13,605
something's not adding up.
385
00:13:13,607 --> 00:13:15,007
- Dig deeper, Aaron.
- Yes, sir.
386
00:13:15,009 --> 00:13:17,478
- Emily, can I borrow you?
- Of course, sir.
387
00:13:17,481 --> 00:13:19,611
They've been banging the
drum on this all week.
388
00:13:19,613 --> 00:13:20,674
Yeah, the media's picked it up,
389
00:13:20,676 --> 00:13:23,243
which is why Foerstel is trying
to induce Alex to testify now.
390
00:13:23,246 --> 00:13:24,579
He knows the heat's turning up.
391
00:13:24,582 --> 00:13:26,585
He's trying to take
advantage of the timing.
392
00:13:26,587 --> 00:13:28,086
I got a message from his office today.
393
00:13:28,088 --> 00:13:29,368
He has an update for us
394
00:13:29,371 --> 00:13:31,957
on the Cincinnati area
police abuse investigation.
395
00:13:31,959 --> 00:13:33,458
Why? That's been dormant for months.
396
00:13:33,460 --> 00:13:34,827
I know. The timing's odd.
397
00:13:34,829 --> 00:13:36,150
No, it's not.
398
00:13:36,153 --> 00:13:38,728
He wants to talk off the
record about my wife's subpoena.
399
00:13:38,731 --> 00:13:40,665
That's why he contacted
you instead of Kendra.
400
00:13:40,668 --> 00:13:42,326
Do you want me to take the meeting?
401
00:13:42,329 --> 00:13:43,502
Yes.
402
00:13:43,504 --> 00:13:45,838
The second he talks
about Icarus, walk away.
403
00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:46,850
I don't want this office
404
00:13:46,853 --> 00:13:48,407
to even have the slightest appearance
405
00:13:48,410 --> 00:13:49,975
of trying to obstruct
this investigation.
406
00:13:49,977 --> 00:13:51,143
Understood.
407
00:13:51,145 --> 00:13:52,544
Thank you.
408
00:13:56,851 --> 00:13:58,243
Mr. Director.
409
00:13:58,246 --> 00:13:59,470
Thank you for meeting me.
410
00:13:59,473 --> 00:14:00,611
I understand you have an update
411
00:14:00,613 --> 00:14:03,387
- on the Cincinnati investigation?
- Yes.
412
00:14:03,390 --> 00:14:05,057
My considered opinion
413
00:14:05,059 --> 00:14:07,459
is there may have been wrongdoing.
414
00:14:07,461 --> 00:14:09,368
Serious wrongdoing.
415
00:14:09,371 --> 00:14:11,697
And our opinion is
that the facts to date
416
00:14:11,699 --> 00:14:13,735
don't remotely support that conclusion.
417
00:14:13,738 --> 00:14:14,867
It's a provisional opinion,
418
00:14:14,869 --> 00:14:16,969
which is why the
investigation has to continue.
419
00:14:16,971 --> 00:14:18,213
Despite the fact that you're chasing
420
00:14:18,215 --> 00:14:19,870
what any objective
observer would describe
421
00:14:19,873 --> 00:14:22,039
as innuendo, wild conspiracy theories.
422
00:14:22,042 --> 00:14:23,876
All investigations chase those things
423
00:14:23,878 --> 00:14:25,978
- until they disclose the truth.
- Or turn up nothing.
424
00:14:25,981 --> 00:14:28,219
Meanwhile, damage is done to
those you're investigating.
425
00:14:28,222 --> 00:14:29,781
Damage that may be irreparable.
426
00:14:29,784 --> 00:14:31,817
If the subjects of this
investigation are innocent,
427
00:14:31,819 --> 00:14:33,819
there won't be any damage.
428
00:14:33,821 --> 00:14:35,721
We both know that's
not true, Mr. Director.
429
00:14:35,723 --> 00:14:37,689
Reputations can be harmed.
430
00:14:37,691 --> 00:14:39,057
Institutions eroded.
431
00:14:39,059 --> 00:14:41,193
That's not my concern.
432
00:14:41,195 --> 00:14:43,595
Is that what you want
me to tell the President?
433
00:14:45,733 --> 00:14:48,901
Tell him Cincinnati is not personal.
434
00:14:48,903 --> 00:14:49,835
It's professional.
435
00:14:49,837 --> 00:14:51,501
And that I owe a duty
to the American people
436
00:14:51,503 --> 00:14:53,939
to follow this to the end of the line.
437
00:14:53,941 --> 00:14:55,540
No matter what.
438
00:15:01,794 --> 00:15:03,203
Foerstel wanted to meet with me
439
00:15:03,206 --> 00:15:04,981
to underscore he wouldn't stand down.
440
00:15:04,984 --> 00:15:06,998
- Didn't think he would.
- And here's why.
441
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:09,479
The media is covering the
Icarus investigation now,
442
00:15:09,482 --> 00:15:11,650
which means he's staking
his professional credibility
443
00:15:11,653 --> 00:15:12,783
on the outcome.
444
00:15:12,785 --> 00:15:14,698
Not a problem if you're
a career civil servant.
445
00:15:14,701 --> 00:15:16,487
- Which he is.
- But not for long.
446
00:15:16,489 --> 00:15:17,940
I played a hunch, sir.
447
00:15:17,943 --> 00:15:20,291
I reached out to a source
in Albany, where he's from,
448
00:15:20,293 --> 00:15:21,201
and it turns out,
449
00:15:21,204 --> 00:15:22,639
he formed an exploratory committee
450
00:15:22,642 --> 00:15:24,661
for a 2018 New York Senate run,
451
00:15:24,664 --> 00:15:26,761
right when the Icarus
investigation began.
452
00:15:26,764 --> 00:15:28,988
And that's not all. He has a
secret PAC in the works, too.
453
00:15:28,990 --> 00:15:30,668
They've already raised
half a million dollars.
454
00:15:30,670 --> 00:15:32,413
And he's doing it all on the
back of the investigation.
455
00:15:32,415 --> 00:15:34,170
We know how much you
respect process, sir,
456
00:15:34,173 --> 00:15:35,339
so we are recommending
457
00:15:35,342 --> 00:15:36,971
that you appoint a special prosecutor
458
00:15:36,974 --> 00:15:37,839
to investigate.
459
00:15:37,842 --> 00:15:39,693
- A special prosecutor?
- Yes, sir.
460
00:15:39,696 --> 00:15:41,511
It doesn't end the Icarus investigation.
461
00:15:41,514 --> 00:15:43,347
It simply removes
Foerstel from the equation.
462
00:15:43,349 --> 00:15:45,449
Which we believe is in the
best interest of the White House
463
00:15:45,451 --> 00:15:46,884
now that he may have ulterior motives.
464
00:15:46,886 --> 00:15:49,045
Ambition is not an ulterior motive.
465
00:15:49,048 --> 00:15:50,354
It's a by-product of the work
466
00:15:50,356 --> 00:15:51,622
that gets done in this town,
467
00:15:51,624 --> 00:15:52,643
and no one's immune.
468
00:15:52,646 --> 00:15:54,491
- Present company included.
- Sir...
469
00:15:54,493 --> 00:15:56,560
With regards to a special prosecutor,
470
00:15:56,562 --> 00:15:59,053
history tells me that
they're runaway trains.
471
00:15:59,056 --> 00:16:00,698
One investigation turns into another,
472
00:16:00,700 --> 00:16:01,870
et cetera, et cetera.
473
00:16:01,873 --> 00:16:03,300
Way too risky.
474
00:16:03,302 --> 00:16:04,835
It's the lesser of the two evils, sir.
475
00:16:04,837 --> 00:16:06,862
- A risk we can manage.
- Emily, I get it.
476
00:16:06,865 --> 00:16:09,073
I'll take it under advisement.
477
00:16:09,076 --> 00:16:10,175
Thank you.
478
00:16:10,178 --> 00:16:11,575
Thank you, Mr. President.
479
00:16:22,446 --> 00:16:23,587
Hey.
480
00:16:23,589 --> 00:16:25,489
So, Three-Letter Day, huh?
481
00:16:25,491 --> 00:16:27,258
- Yeah, Three-Letter day.
- Wait. Hang on.
482
00:16:27,260 --> 00:16:28,993
Um... can I talk to you?
483
00:16:28,995 --> 00:16:30,594
- I-I've got a thing. I...
- Look.
484
00:16:30,596 --> 00:16:32,429
Um, I-I actually have
a thing, too, okay?
485
00:16:32,431 --> 00:16:33,597
It's called walking on egg shells,
486
00:16:33,599 --> 00:16:35,232
which is what I feel
like I've been doing
487
00:16:35,234 --> 00:16:36,734
the last couple days.
488
00:16:36,736 --> 00:16:38,336
I'm just wondering if
you told the President
489
00:16:38,338 --> 00:16:39,418
that I got arrested
490
00:16:39,421 --> 00:16:40,912
for covering up my brother's drugs
491
00:16:40,915 --> 00:16:42,190
and what that means for me,
492
00:16:42,193 --> 00:16:44,041
because I'm kind of also obsessed
493
00:16:44,043 --> 00:16:45,876
with this other thing
called job security.
494
00:16:45,878 --> 00:16:47,911
It's an evolving situation.
495
00:16:47,913 --> 00:16:50,229
Evolving. Got it.
496
00:16:50,232 --> 00:16:52,049
Yeah.
497
00:16:52,051 --> 00:16:53,751
Okay, that's also a thing.
498
00:16:53,753 --> 00:16:55,220
Ah.
499
00:16:57,914 --> 00:16:59,346
Interesting fact.
500
00:16:59,349 --> 00:17:01,139
A colony rears several queens at once.
501
00:17:01,142 --> 00:17:02,401
The first queen that hatches
502
00:17:02,404 --> 00:17:04,895
stings the others to
death in their cells.
503
00:17:04,897 --> 00:17:06,297
If two emerge at once,
504
00:17:06,299 --> 00:17:08,412
they fight until one is killed.
505
00:17:08,415 --> 00:17:09,967
It's just like an election, Seth.
506
00:17:14,607 --> 00:17:16,667
I didn't set out to be an apiarist.
507
00:17:16,670 --> 00:17:17,808
It began as a hobby.
508
00:17:17,810 --> 00:17:20,334
And then before I knew
it, I had three colonies.
509
00:17:20,337 --> 00:17:22,880
- Their upkeep must take a lot of time.
- Well, yes.
510
00:17:22,882 --> 00:17:25,649
But I now harvest $4,000
a month worth of honey
511
00:17:25,652 --> 00:17:26,651
from my hives.
512
00:17:26,654 --> 00:17:27,581
That's excellent.
513
00:17:27,584 --> 00:17:28,719
So, uh, how can we help?
514
00:17:28,728 --> 00:17:31,030
Eddie thinks the FAA
is killing our bees.
515
00:17:31,033 --> 00:17:32,198
Really?
516
00:17:32,201 --> 00:17:33,490
How?
517
00:17:33,492 --> 00:17:36,794
Well, that new Air Route
Surveillance Radar facility,
518
00:17:36,796 --> 00:17:39,596
it opened around the
time of the die-off.
519
00:17:39,598 --> 00:17:42,573
Bees navigate using magnetic fields.
520
00:17:42,576 --> 00:17:44,802
I think the radar is disrupting that.
521
00:17:44,804 --> 00:17:46,570
Are they flying into trees?
522
00:17:46,572 --> 00:17:47,338
No, Seth.
523
00:17:47,340 --> 00:17:49,073
They're insects, not imbeciles.
524
00:17:49,075 --> 00:17:51,342
They use a solar compass to navigate.
525
00:17:51,345 --> 00:17:53,911
Disrupt that, you compromise
their spatial memory.
526
00:17:53,913 --> 00:17:56,814
They can't find their food.
527
00:17:56,816 --> 00:17:59,065
You must be a fellow melittologist.
528
00:17:59,068 --> 00:18:00,037
I dabble.
529
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:02,276
- So you've spoken with the A.R.S.R.?
- Yes.
530
00:18:02,279 --> 00:18:04,519
I told them that two
of my three colonies
531
00:18:04,522 --> 00:18:06,222
had been completely wiped out,
532
00:18:06,225 --> 00:18:07,491
but they ignored me.
533
00:18:07,493 --> 00:18:10,190
And that's why I wrote
the President a letter.
534
00:18:10,193 --> 00:18:11,581
Eddie's very proactive.
535
00:18:11,584 --> 00:18:13,326
Well, so is the White House.
536
00:18:13,329 --> 00:18:15,099
Oh, we really didn't mean to
put you to all this trouble.
537
00:18:15,101 --> 00:18:17,139
Oh, no, no. The trouble
will be the FAA's.
538
00:18:17,142 --> 00:18:18,729
Tell apis cerana to stand by.
539
00:18:18,732 --> 00:18:19,809
Help's on the way.
540
00:18:20,746 --> 00:18:23,214
Uh, we'll, uh, be in touch.
541
00:18:28,514 --> 00:18:29,546
Interesting fact.
542
00:18:29,548 --> 00:18:31,348
Bees never sleep.
543
00:18:31,350 --> 00:18:33,350
- I don't care.
- They're the only insect
544
00:18:33,352 --> 00:18:34,518
that produces food for humans.
545
00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:36,787
- I still don't care.
- Oh.
546
00:18:36,789 --> 00:18:38,522
You've been stung, haven't you?
547
00:18:38,524 --> 00:18:39,683
Hey, Ms. Slater.
548
00:18:39,686 --> 00:18:41,392
Seth Wright. This is Lyor Boone.
549
00:18:41,394 --> 00:18:42,526
Thank you so much for coming.
550
00:18:42,528 --> 00:18:43,660
On behalf of the FAA,
551
00:18:43,662 --> 00:18:46,003
we're thrilled the President
has an interest in aviation.
552
00:18:46,006 --> 00:18:46,997
Oh, he doesn't.
553
00:18:46,999 --> 00:18:48,347
His interest is in bees.
554
00:18:48,350 --> 00:18:49,533
Oh, God.
555
00:18:49,535 --> 00:18:51,468
Not that Eddie guy again.
556
00:18:51,470 --> 00:18:52,302
You remember him?
557
00:18:52,304 --> 00:18:54,397
As the Administrator of the A.R.S.R.,
558
00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:56,131
I have a hard time forgetting someone
559
00:18:56,134 --> 00:18:58,642
I nearly had to get a
restraining order against.
560
00:18:58,644 --> 00:19:00,732
The letters, the calls. The pickets.
561
00:19:00,735 --> 00:19:02,034
All of which you ignored.
562
00:19:02,037 --> 00:19:03,547
No, we didn't.
563
00:19:03,549 --> 00:19:06,323
We tried to reach an
amicable settlement,
564
00:19:06,326 --> 00:19:08,051
but the problem resolved itself.
565
00:19:08,053 --> 00:19:09,935
At least I thought it did.
566
00:19:09,938 --> 00:19:11,037
Who told you that?
567
00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:12,038
Helen Adamson.
568
00:19:14,493 --> 00:19:15,559
His wife.
569
00:19:19,832 --> 00:19:21,498
That's her. Chandler's daughter.
570
00:19:21,500 --> 00:19:23,100
Ms. Dern.
571
00:19:23,102 --> 00:19:25,836
I'm Hannah Wells, FBI.
572
00:19:25,838 --> 00:19:27,905
This is Kendra Daynes,
the White House Counsel.
573
00:19:27,907 --> 00:19:29,206
I left you a few messages.
574
00:19:29,208 --> 00:19:30,293
I have nothing to say to you.
575
00:19:30,295 --> 00:19:31,775
It's about your dad.
576
00:19:31,777 --> 00:19:33,577
You remember him, don't you?
577
00:19:33,579 --> 00:19:34,912
Winter Haven.
578
00:19:34,915 --> 00:19:36,066
You spend a lot of time there?
579
00:19:36,068 --> 00:19:37,080
Please leave me alone.
580
00:19:37,082 --> 00:19:38,715
Did you write to us about your dad?
581
00:19:38,717 --> 00:19:39,701
No.
582
00:19:39,704 --> 00:19:41,704
Tracy, we work for the White House.
583
00:19:41,707 --> 00:19:44,170
If your dad is innocent,
we can save him.
584
00:19:44,173 --> 00:19:45,515
If you know something that could
585
00:19:45,518 --> 00:19:46,857
- help us prove that...
- I don't.
586
00:19:46,859 --> 00:19:48,693
Now, please. Just let me go.
587
00:19:57,136 --> 00:19:59,069
She couldn't even look us in the eye.
588
00:19:59,071 --> 00:20:01,038
Could be a guilty conscience.
589
00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:02,606
But let's play it out. Okay?
590
00:20:02,608 --> 00:20:04,475
She's a strung-out
teen back in the day.
591
00:20:04,477 --> 00:20:06,243
Somehow got mixed up
in the Ketamine buy,
592
00:20:06,245 --> 00:20:07,271
the agent's death.
593
00:20:07,274 --> 00:20:08,758
Her dad takes the fall for her.
594
00:20:08,761 --> 00:20:10,747
When he's looking at his
last meal, she finally caves.
595
00:20:10,749 --> 00:20:12,310
Writes a letter to save his life.
596
00:20:12,313 --> 00:20:13,541
I'll find out if she has a rap sheet,
597
00:20:13,543 --> 00:20:15,719
- any prior drug convictions.
- Okay.
598
00:20:15,722 --> 00:20:18,257
I have to meet Agent Rennett
about the First Lady's case.
599
00:20:18,260 --> 00:20:19,927
- I'll see you in the White House in an hour?
- Will do.
600
00:20:19,929 --> 00:20:22,008
- I'll call you as soon as I hear something.
- Okay.
601
00:20:23,062 --> 00:20:26,096
- Hey.
- You've been scarce.
602
00:20:26,098 --> 00:20:27,798
Yeah, it's Three-Letter Day.
603
00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:29,966
Is that some sort of postal holiday?
604
00:20:29,969 --> 00:20:31,468
No, it's...
605
00:20:31,470 --> 00:20:33,048
What do we have on the banker?
606
00:20:33,051 --> 00:20:35,427
Our Mr. Lang has dual citizenship.
607
00:20:35,430 --> 00:20:36,701
St. Lucia and the U.K.
608
00:20:36,704 --> 00:20:38,173
Multiple passports.
609
00:20:38,176 --> 00:20:40,143
He landed here using
his St. Lucia passport.
610
00:20:40,145 --> 00:20:41,998
Used his British one to pass into Canada
611
00:20:42,001 --> 00:20:42,980
a few days ago.
612
00:20:42,982 --> 00:20:44,513
He's exploiting multiple identities
613
00:20:44,516 --> 00:20:45,916
so we can't catch him in real time.
614
00:20:45,918 --> 00:20:48,185
Good way to stay one step
ahead of the banking regulators.
615
00:20:48,187 --> 00:20:50,654
By the time our systems update,
he could be in Kathmandu.
616
00:20:50,656 --> 00:20:51,787
We have to find him.
617
00:20:51,790 --> 00:20:53,275
He is the First Lady's last hope
618
00:20:53,278 --> 00:20:54,310
to avoid the FBI inquiry.
619
00:20:54,313 --> 00:20:56,093
Yeah?
620
00:20:56,095 --> 00:20:57,861
Alfonso Lang has a condo in Georgetown
621
00:20:57,863 --> 00:21:00,130
he leases through a
closely held corporation
622
00:21:00,132 --> 00:21:02,132
called Montserrat Alliance.
623
00:21:02,134 --> 00:21:03,367
I'm texting you the address.
624
00:21:03,369 --> 00:21:05,260
Chuck, we don't even know
that he's in the country.
625
00:21:05,262 --> 00:21:06,937
I do. I can trace a purchase
626
00:21:06,939 --> 00:21:08,772
to a company credit card 90 minutes ago.
627
00:21:08,774 --> 00:21:10,303
A massage parlor in Dupont.
628
00:21:10,306 --> 00:21:11,708
Thanks, Chuck.
629
00:21:11,710 --> 00:21:12,939
Lang's local.
630
00:21:12,942 --> 00:21:14,845
Chuck is texting us the deets.
631
00:21:14,847 --> 00:21:16,146
If we can get Lang to confess
632
00:21:16,148 --> 00:21:17,648
that he was working at Lloyd's behest
633
00:21:17,650 --> 00:21:18,698
to make it look like the First Lady
634
00:21:18,700 --> 00:21:20,217
was getting a payola from Icarus,
635
00:21:20,219 --> 00:21:21,652
we can clear her name.
636
00:21:21,654 --> 00:21:22,719
Great.
637
00:21:22,721 --> 00:21:24,639
I'm gonna hit the loo.
I'll see you in a second.
638
00:21:49,287 --> 00:21:50,792
You got a partial plate?
639
00:21:50,794 --> 00:21:52,557
First three letters. Chuck's running it.
640
00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:54,380
There's a lesson here, you know?
641
00:21:54,383 --> 00:21:55,784
What's that?
642
00:21:55,787 --> 00:21:57,834
You shouldn't beat
up bankers without me,
643
00:21:57,837 --> 00:22:00,109
especially bankers that
want to frame the First Lady.
644
00:22:00,110 --> 00:22:01,049
Yeah?
645
00:22:01,052 --> 00:22:02,904
You think you could've gotten
out of the way of that car?
646
00:22:02,906 --> 00:22:03,838
Nope.
647
00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:05,708
I would've shot the
guy before he got in it.
648
00:22:08,412 --> 00:22:09,644
Mr. Lang?
649
00:22:09,646 --> 00:22:11,579
Hannah Wells. FBI.
650
00:22:13,417 --> 00:22:16,099
TV's on.
651
00:22:16,102 --> 00:22:18,153
You sure it's not
someone calling for help?
652
00:22:18,155 --> 00:22:20,255
Exigent circumstances.
No need for a warrant.
653
00:22:20,257 --> 00:22:21,691
You really have been here too long.
654
00:22:23,209 --> 00:22:24,509
I've been here longer.
655
00:22:29,666 --> 00:22:32,267
Hello?
656
00:22:32,269 --> 00:22:33,302
Mr. Lang?
657
00:22:40,210 --> 00:22:41,477
We just missed him.
658
00:22:43,318 --> 00:22:44,780
Someone tipped him off.
659
00:22:46,049 --> 00:22:48,283
Colonel Baines, we have more
questions about Kandahar.
660
00:22:48,285 --> 00:22:50,385
Those are the GPS coordinates
of Sergeant Goff's phone
661
00:22:50,387 --> 00:22:52,138
during the battle in
which he was killed.
662
00:22:52,141 --> 00:22:52,907
You know what's interesting
663
00:22:52,909 --> 00:22:54,688
about these coordinates, Colonel?
664
00:22:54,691 --> 00:22:56,725
They put Sergeant Goff smack
in the middle of the battle,
665
00:22:56,727 --> 00:22:58,344
not a click away doing recon.
666
00:22:58,347 --> 00:23:00,114
That's the information I had.
667
00:23:00,117 --> 00:23:02,284
Well, let me show you
the information we have.
668
00:23:02,287 --> 00:23:04,732
This is a divorce filing.
669
00:23:04,735 --> 00:23:05,867
Your divorce filing,
670
00:23:05,869 --> 00:23:08,297
and it lists adultery as the grounds.
671
00:23:08,300 --> 00:23:10,539
An affair your wife
had with Sergeant Goff.
672
00:23:10,542 --> 00:23:13,643
Filing a false report is
a court-martial offense.
673
00:23:13,646 --> 00:23:15,613
Dishonorable discharge, prison time.
674
00:23:15,616 --> 00:23:16,982
But I don't need to tell you that.
675
00:23:16,985 --> 00:23:18,118
No, you don't.
676
00:23:18,121 --> 00:23:19,313
So you are going to amend
677
00:23:19,316 --> 00:23:21,109
your statement of
Sergeant Goff's conduct
678
00:23:21,112 --> 00:23:22,603
and you'll include a recommendation
679
00:23:22,606 --> 00:23:24,661
that he be posthumously
awarded the Medal of Honor.
680
00:23:27,347 --> 00:23:28,657
Okay.
681
00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:32,297
I'll do that.
682
00:23:32,300 --> 00:23:33,499
Thank you.
683
00:23:33,502 --> 00:23:35,764
And I won't leave out any of it...
684
00:23:35,766 --> 00:23:37,832
Not how he betrayed my trust,
685
00:23:37,834 --> 00:23:39,555
or seduced my wife,
686
00:23:39,558 --> 00:23:41,820
or ruined my marriage, or any of it.
687
00:23:41,823 --> 00:23:43,904
And his grieving widow
can frame my statement
688
00:23:43,907 --> 00:23:45,341
right next to his Medal of Honor.
689
00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:51,679
So both of you disagree
690
00:23:51,681 --> 00:23:53,930
with regards to Sergeant Goff?
691
00:23:53,933 --> 00:23:54,925
Yes.
692
00:23:54,928 --> 00:23:55,828
We both agree
693
00:23:55,831 --> 00:23:57,752
he should be recognized for his valor.
694
00:23:57,754 --> 00:23:59,287
Yeah, but medals are for the living,
695
00:23:59,289 --> 00:24:00,288
not the dead.
696
00:24:00,290 --> 00:24:01,256
They provide comfort.
697
00:24:01,258 --> 00:24:03,367
And if we award this
medal to Sergeant Goff,
698
00:24:03,370 --> 00:24:05,627
his wife will also learn
about his infidelity.
699
00:24:05,629 --> 00:24:06,895
And I disagree.
700
00:24:06,897 --> 00:24:08,730
These inquiries have a narrow focus...
701
00:24:08,732 --> 00:24:10,758
To determine the facts
on the battlefield.
702
00:24:10,761 --> 00:24:13,095
- Which deserve commendation.
- Yes.
703
00:24:13,098 --> 00:24:14,335
Once you start factoring
704
00:24:14,337 --> 00:24:16,076
extraneous personal
circumstances into the mix...
705
00:24:16,078 --> 00:24:18,641
A medal is about extraneous
personal circumstances.
706
00:24:18,644 --> 00:24:20,343
What it will mean to the next of kin.
707
00:24:20,346 --> 00:24:21,422
I think the greatest gift
708
00:24:21,425 --> 00:24:23,383
we can give the next
of kin is the truth.
709
00:24:26,082 --> 00:24:29,172
I would like to meet
with Mrs. Goff and her son
710
00:24:29,175 --> 00:24:30,450
here in the Oval Office.
711
00:24:30,453 --> 00:24:31,720
Absolutely.
712
00:24:32,956 --> 00:24:34,956
Sir, may I address another matter?
713
00:24:34,958 --> 00:24:37,792
Sure. What is it?
714
00:24:37,794 --> 00:24:40,086
I'm here championing for transparency.
715
00:24:40,089 --> 00:24:41,872
And I'm ashamed to
admit that I haven't been
716
00:24:41,875 --> 00:24:43,598
as transparent with you
as I should have been
717
00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:45,668
regarding a personnel issue.
718
00:24:46,636 --> 00:24:49,070
I'm listening.
719
00:24:50,474 --> 00:24:51,586
A few days ago,
720
00:24:51,589 --> 00:24:53,608
Seth was arrested and charged with...
721
00:24:53,610 --> 00:24:55,743
I already know about it.
722
00:24:55,745 --> 00:24:57,500
You do?
723
00:24:57,503 --> 00:24:59,156
The District of Columbia D.A....
724
00:24:59,159 --> 00:25:01,045
He's a friend of mine.
We play cards together.
725
00:25:01,048 --> 00:25:03,238
He told me as soon as
I got back from Kabul.
726
00:25:04,535 --> 00:25:06,987
I am sorry we didn't have
this conversation sooner.
727
00:25:06,990 --> 00:25:09,148
So am I.
728
00:25:09,151 --> 00:25:11,651
But the point is, we're having it now.
729
00:25:11,654 --> 00:25:13,594
I know that the White
House is like a family,
730
00:25:13,597 --> 00:25:14,863
and I can't even imagine
731
00:25:14,865 --> 00:25:16,498
how difficult it is for you sometimes
732
00:25:16,500 --> 00:25:17,765
in the trenches with everyone.
733
00:25:17,767 --> 00:25:18,739
Yes, sir.
734
00:25:18,742 --> 00:25:20,250
But the truth is, you work for me,
735
00:25:20,253 --> 00:25:23,781
and I can't do my job
when I'm kept in the dark.
736
00:25:23,784 --> 00:25:27,709
I rely on you to counsel me
through these kind of matters.
737
00:25:27,711 --> 00:25:30,211
Understood.
738
00:25:30,214 --> 00:25:31,647
Having said that...
739
00:25:37,286 --> 00:25:39,211
What do you think I
should do about Seth?
740
00:25:50,834 --> 00:25:51,833
Look at them.
741
00:25:51,835 --> 00:25:54,068
So innocent, so vulnerable.
742
00:25:54,070 --> 00:25:56,070
They're bees, Lyor.
743
00:25:56,073 --> 00:25:57,609
Wait, Lyor. Hold on.
744
00:25:57,612 --> 00:25:59,707
She accused Helen Adamson.
745
00:25:59,709 --> 00:26:01,008
Justice must be done, Seth.
746
00:26:01,011 --> 00:26:02,410
Hey, wait, wait, wait. Lyor.
747
00:26:02,413 --> 00:26:04,613
Lyor, relax. I am relaxed.
748
00:26:04,616 --> 00:26:06,079
Relaxed as someone
749
00:26:06,082 --> 00:26:09,180
about to confront a
woman over apicide can be.
750
00:26:09,183 --> 00:26:11,278
- That's not a word.
- Yes, it is.
751
00:26:11,281 --> 00:26:13,315
- And we don't know that she killed the bees.
- Yes, we do.
752
00:26:13,317 --> 00:26:14,739
And you have to stop ringing the bell.
753
00:26:14,740 --> 00:26:15,777
No, I don't.
754
00:26:17,194 --> 00:26:18,398
Sorry.
755
00:26:18,401 --> 00:26:19,477
Just got out of the shower.
756
00:26:19,479 --> 00:26:21,245
Ma'am, we need to talk.
757
00:26:21,248 --> 00:26:23,717
Oh, okay. Eddie stepped out.
758
00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:25,488
- Oh, just the three of us, then.
- No, that's okay.
759
00:26:25,490 --> 00:26:27,202
We can actually come back
at a more convenient time.
760
00:26:27,204 --> 00:26:28,770
- Thank you.
- No, I'll just be a minute.
761
00:26:28,772 --> 00:26:29,838
- Come on in.
- Great.
762
00:26:31,799 --> 00:26:33,379
So, just make yourselves comfortable
763
00:26:33,382 --> 00:26:35,109
and I'll be right back
down after I change.
764
00:26:35,111 --> 00:26:36,550
Thank you.
765
00:26:36,553 --> 00:26:37,820
Thanks.
766
00:26:42,018 --> 00:26:43,219
What are you doing?
767
00:26:43,222 --> 00:26:44,687
Hey.
768
00:26:46,488 --> 00:26:48,253
You realize this gives me more evidence
769
00:26:48,256 --> 00:26:50,091
for your involuntary
commitment application.
770
00:26:50,093 --> 00:26:51,675
She killed the bees, Seth.
771
00:26:51,678 --> 00:26:53,414
- Thousands of them.
- No, she didn't.
772
00:26:53,417 --> 00:26:55,136
- The FAA did.
- Wrong.
773
00:26:55,139 --> 00:26:57,446
Two of the three colonies
collapsed completely.
774
00:26:57,449 --> 00:26:59,200
The third seems to be fine,
775
00:26:59,202 --> 00:27:01,469
which means that while the
radar may have weakened them,
776
00:27:01,471 --> 00:27:03,214
she applied the coup de grace.
777
00:27:06,910 --> 00:27:08,030
And this was it.
778
00:27:12,249 --> 00:27:15,250
Helen Adamson is the
colony collapse disorder.
779
00:27:15,252 --> 00:27:16,618
Okay, Animal Planet,
780
00:27:16,621 --> 00:27:18,193
you want to slow down
and take me through it?
781
00:27:18,195 --> 00:27:19,988
This is royal jelly,
Seth, a massive amount.
782
00:27:19,990 --> 00:27:21,417
You take too much from the hive,
783
00:27:21,420 --> 00:27:22,257
the queen stops laying.
784
00:27:22,259 --> 00:27:23,503
The larvae starts dying.
785
00:27:23,506 --> 00:27:25,855
- Why would she kill the bees?
- Jealousy.
786
00:27:25,858 --> 00:27:26,894
Have you seen the house?
787
00:27:26,896 --> 00:27:28,933
It's a shrine to bees.
A glorious shrine.
788
00:27:28,936 --> 00:27:30,932
So she gets rid of the bees,
she gets her husband back?
789
00:27:30,934 --> 00:27:32,792
Yes, except he's going to leave
790
00:27:32,795 --> 00:27:34,254
when he learns she's a serial killer.
791
00:27:34,256 --> 00:27:35,770
Whoa. He's not learning anything, okay?
792
00:27:35,772 --> 00:27:36,738
Our remit is to save the bees,
793
00:27:36,740 --> 00:27:37,972
not wreck their marriage.
794
00:27:37,974 --> 00:27:39,173
Oh, no, we're going to save the bees
795
00:27:39,175 --> 00:27:40,975
- by wrecking the marriage.
- No, no, no, listen.
796
00:27:40,977 --> 00:27:42,110
I have a plan, okay?
797
00:27:42,112 --> 00:27:43,504
It will save your precious little bees
798
00:27:43,506 --> 00:27:44,387
and the federal government
799
00:27:44,389 --> 00:27:46,337
from an alienation of affection lawsuit.
800
00:27:46,340 --> 00:27:49,116
Now sit down, shut
up, and let me explain.
801
00:27:52,163 --> 00:27:54,597
Why do they call it the Oval Office?
802
00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:56,934
Because it's shaped like an oval.
803
00:27:56,937 --> 00:27:58,636
What's an oval?
804
00:27:58,639 --> 00:28:02,841
Sort of like a circle, but squished.
805
00:28:02,844 --> 00:28:04,999
Is there a triangle office?
806
00:28:05,001 --> 00:28:06,381
Danny, that's enough questions.
807
00:28:06,384 --> 00:28:07,712
No, it's fine.
808
00:28:07,715 --> 00:28:08,914
No, there isn't,
809
00:28:08,917 --> 00:28:11,351
but it would be really
cool if there was.
810
00:28:11,354 --> 00:28:12,775
Why don't we have a seat?
811
00:28:16,911 --> 00:28:19,455
Mrs. Goff, I am very sorry,
812
00:28:19,458 --> 00:28:20,619
but I am not gonna be able
813
00:28:20,622 --> 00:28:23,590
to present your husband with the medal.
814
00:28:23,593 --> 00:28:26,227
Our investigation was inconclusive.
815
00:28:26,230 --> 00:28:28,228
Memories fade, witnesses disappear,
816
00:28:28,231 --> 00:28:30,798
and obviously there is a
very high standard of proof
817
00:28:30,801 --> 00:28:33,602
for this sort of thing.
818
00:28:33,605 --> 00:28:35,502
I understand, sir.
819
00:28:35,505 --> 00:28:36,897
I asked you both here today
820
00:28:36,900 --> 00:28:38,900
because I wanted to present you
821
00:28:38,902 --> 00:28:40,337
with this from me.
822
00:28:43,444 --> 00:28:46,111
And I wanted to talk to you, Danny,
823
00:28:46,114 --> 00:28:47,715
about your father.
824
00:28:50,250 --> 00:28:51,749
Okay.
825
00:28:51,752 --> 00:28:54,254
I want you to know how brave he was.
826
00:28:56,019 --> 00:28:57,697
And that there are people alive today
827
00:28:57,700 --> 00:28:59,233
because of what your father did.
828
00:28:59,236 --> 00:29:00,673
That's what made him a hero.
829
00:29:02,726 --> 00:29:04,660
My dad was brave.
830
00:29:06,229 --> 00:29:08,363
Yes, he was.
831
00:29:08,365 --> 00:29:10,064
Very.
832
00:29:10,066 --> 00:29:13,392
And if anyone asks
you how you know that,
833
00:29:13,395 --> 00:29:14,712
I want you to tell them
834
00:29:14,715 --> 00:29:16,756
that the President of the
United States told you.
835
00:29:21,755 --> 00:29:23,655
Thank you.
836
00:29:23,658 --> 00:29:25,859
No.
837
00:29:25,862 --> 00:29:27,715
Thank you.
838
00:29:29,403 --> 00:29:31,285
We're pleased to report that the FAA
839
00:29:31,287 --> 00:29:32,954
has agreed to redirect its radio waves
840
00:29:32,956 --> 00:29:34,122
so that your colonies
841
00:29:34,124 --> 00:29:35,890
are no longer affected, Mr. Adamson.
842
00:29:35,892 --> 00:29:37,058
- Really?
- Yes.
843
00:29:37,060 --> 00:29:39,927
So we anticipate a resurgence
in your bee population.
844
00:29:39,929 --> 00:29:42,029
A robust resurgence.
845
00:29:42,031 --> 00:29:43,097
See, Helen?
846
00:29:43,099 --> 00:29:44,799
I told you President Kirkman cared.
847
00:29:44,801 --> 00:29:47,222
Oh, actually, the person you
should be thanking is your wife.
848
00:29:47,225 --> 00:29:49,770
She's the one who
brought the FAA to heel.
849
00:29:49,773 --> 00:29:51,205
I don't know what to say.
850
00:29:51,207 --> 00:29:52,996
Well, we'll let you say it in private.
851
00:29:52,999 --> 00:29:54,191
No, wait.
852
00:29:56,146 --> 00:29:59,722
I'm ashamed of my behavior.
853
00:29:59,725 --> 00:30:02,417
I've repaid my wife's
devotion with treachery,
854
00:30:02,419 --> 00:30:04,786
and I want to confess it
in front of everyone here.
855
00:30:04,788 --> 00:30:05,820
Eddie?
856
00:30:05,822 --> 00:30:07,465
- We should go, Lyor.
- Shh.
857
00:30:07,468 --> 00:30:08,901
Your roses?
858
00:30:08,904 --> 00:30:10,985
- The ones the deer ate?
- What about them?
859
00:30:10,988 --> 00:30:12,326
It wasn't the deer.
860
00:30:12,328 --> 00:30:14,629
I... I poisoned them.
861
00:30:14,631 --> 00:30:15,797
What?! Why would you do that?
862
00:30:15,799 --> 00:30:17,171
- Now, Lyor.
- You're being rude, Seth.
863
00:30:17,173 --> 00:30:18,869
This man wants to unburden himself.
864
00:30:18,872 --> 00:30:21,902
They were drawing them away
from better food sources.
865
00:30:21,905 --> 00:30:23,004
I was desperate.
866
00:30:23,006 --> 00:30:24,541
Oh, God, I... I am so sorry.
867
00:30:24,544 --> 00:30:25,837
I'm sorry, too.
868
00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:27,915
That I didn't kill
more of those parasites.
869
00:30:27,918 --> 00:30:28,909
You killed my bees?
870
00:30:28,912 --> 00:30:30,572
Not enough of them, you bastard.
871
00:30:30,575 --> 00:30:31,755
- You murderer!
- You're the murderer!
872
00:30:31,757 --> 00:30:33,448
- Now we can go.
- My mother was right about you.
873
00:30:33,450 --> 00:30:35,016
Oh, speaking of someone I want to kill.
874
00:30:35,018 --> 00:30:36,632
Don't you dare mention her name.
875
00:30:36,635 --> 00:30:37,802
I should've married Lance Burlington
876
00:30:37,804 --> 00:30:38,803
when I had the chance.
877
00:30:38,806 --> 00:30:40,450
Lance? Please!
878
00:30:42,966 --> 00:30:44,924
Wait, someone tried to run you down?
879
00:30:44,926 --> 00:30:46,105
It's an occupational hazard.
880
00:30:46,108 --> 00:30:47,246
I'm fine. Talk to me.
881
00:30:47,249 --> 00:30:49,395
I checked Tracy in
the system. No record.
882
00:30:49,397 --> 00:30:50,896
But I got a hit from another Dern...
883
00:30:50,898 --> 00:30:51,897
Her brother Frank.
884
00:30:51,899 --> 00:30:52,932
What's his collar for?
885
00:30:52,934 --> 00:30:54,767
Drug conviction in 2001.
886
00:30:54,769 --> 00:30:57,027
Six months after his dad's conviction.
887
00:30:57,030 --> 00:30:59,839
Misdemeanor possession
of... Get this... Ketamine.
888
00:30:59,841 --> 00:31:02,199
Which was a rare designer
drug back in 2001.
889
00:31:02,202 --> 00:31:04,243
Meaning if Chandler Dern was
trying to cover for someone,
890
00:31:04,245 --> 00:31:06,043
it wasn't his daughter.
891
00:31:06,046 --> 00:31:08,581
- Keep each other posted.
- Right. Deal.
892
00:31:08,583 --> 00:31:11,191
Is the President going to pardon me?
893
00:31:11,194 --> 00:31:12,885
Not unless you tell the truth.
894
00:31:12,887 --> 00:31:14,999
I've been telling the
truth for 16 years.
895
00:31:15,002 --> 00:31:15,977
I'm innocent.
896
00:31:15,980 --> 00:31:17,957
I believe you.
897
00:31:17,959 --> 00:31:20,593
And I also believe you know who's not.
898
00:31:20,595 --> 00:31:23,196
This is the arrest
record for your son Frank.
899
00:31:24,395 --> 00:31:26,095
What does that have to do with anything?
900
00:31:26,098 --> 00:31:27,964
We both know what happened that night.
901
00:31:27,967 --> 00:31:29,901
Your son tried to buy Ketamine.
902
00:31:29,904 --> 00:31:30,903
It went wrong.
903
00:31:30,905 --> 00:31:32,271
He killed Carl Marley.
904
00:31:32,273 --> 00:31:33,439
That's a lie.
905
00:31:33,441 --> 00:31:34,965
And you took the fall.
906
00:31:34,968 --> 00:31:36,742
And you made your
daughter keep the secret.
907
00:31:36,744 --> 00:31:38,444
And it destroyed her.
908
00:31:38,446 --> 00:31:41,566
But she kept faith with you.
909
00:31:41,569 --> 00:31:42,982
Until she couldn't anymore
910
00:31:42,984 --> 00:31:45,451
because she didn't want
to watch her father die.
911
00:31:45,453 --> 00:31:47,453
If you think I'm gonna give up my son,
912
00:31:47,455 --> 00:31:49,087
you must not have children.
913
00:31:49,090 --> 00:31:51,423
Sir, you've been tried and
convicted for this crime.
914
00:31:51,425 --> 00:31:52,491
No prosecutor on Earth
915
00:31:52,493 --> 00:31:54,207
will try to charge Frank for this now,
916
00:31:54,210 --> 00:31:56,328
let alone try to convince
a jury to convict him.
917
00:31:56,330 --> 00:31:57,796
But the world will know.
918
00:31:57,798 --> 00:31:59,465
Mr. Dern,
919
00:31:59,467 --> 00:32:01,467
if you want the President to pardon you,
920
00:32:01,469 --> 00:32:04,437
he needs to hear the
truth from your lips.
921
00:32:06,974 --> 00:32:09,341
I regret the damage done to Tracy
922
00:32:09,343 --> 00:32:10,809
more than anything.
923
00:32:10,811 --> 00:32:13,045
And I would gladly die
924
00:32:13,047 --> 00:32:15,168
if it would ma her whole again.
925
00:32:15,171 --> 00:32:16,863
But I can't help her now.
926
00:32:18,085 --> 00:32:20,819
I can help Frank.
927
00:32:20,821 --> 00:32:21,887
He has a life,
928
00:32:21,889 --> 00:32:25,087
and I will sacrifice mine
so that he can keep his.
929
00:32:25,090 --> 00:32:27,626
Guard!
930
00:32:32,466 --> 00:32:33,465
Hey.
931
00:32:33,467 --> 00:32:34,633
Hey, uh, I'm busy, Seth.
932
00:32:34,635 --> 00:32:35,801
This will just take a second.
933
00:32:35,803 --> 00:32:36,936
I just wanted to let you know
934
00:32:36,938 --> 00:32:39,251
that I've decided to offer
the President my resignation.
935
00:32:39,254 --> 00:32:40,418
What?
936
00:32:40,421 --> 00:32:42,974
I've been skulking around
here the last two days, Emily.
937
00:32:42,977 --> 00:32:44,677
I know he knows I've been arrested.
938
00:32:44,679 --> 00:32:46,679
I-I can see it in the
way he looks at me.
939
00:32:46,681 --> 00:32:47,947
I can hear it in his tone.
940
00:32:47,949 --> 00:32:49,196
He put me on bee patrol.
941
00:32:49,199 --> 00:32:51,450
He cares about bees.
942
00:32:51,452 --> 00:32:52,769
Bee patrol with Lyor.
943
00:32:53,921 --> 00:32:54,920
Yeah.
944
00:32:54,922 --> 00:32:56,455
I'm in the doghouse, Em,
945
00:32:56,457 --> 00:32:58,199
and I don't know how to get out.
946
00:32:58,202 --> 00:33:00,168
So I figure I'll offer
him my resignation.
947
00:33:00,171 --> 00:33:02,274
If he accepts, I know
I'm good, and if not...
948
00:33:02,277 --> 00:33:03,429
He's not gonna accept it.
949
00:33:03,431 --> 00:33:04,798
How do you know that?
950
00:33:08,135 --> 00:33:11,637
Because I told him to fire you.
951
00:33:11,639 --> 00:33:12,829
And he declined.
952
00:33:14,942 --> 00:33:16,976
- I had to be objective, Seth.
- No, I know.
953
00:33:16,978 --> 00:33:19,144
And an objective Emily
would view your behavior
954
00:33:19,146 --> 00:33:20,779
as disloyal to this place.
955
00:33:20,781 --> 00:33:24,516
You compromised the one
person you can't compromise,
956
00:33:24,518 --> 00:33:26,019
and you did it willingly.
957
00:33:26,022 --> 00:33:27,188
I know.
958
00:33:28,990 --> 00:33:30,757
And you compromised me.
959
00:33:32,396 --> 00:33:33,829
And I've...
960
00:33:33,832 --> 00:33:36,895
I've looked at this every which way
961
00:33:36,897 --> 00:33:38,843
since it's gone down.
962
00:33:38,846 --> 00:33:41,446
I mean, I've reconsidered every option.
963
00:33:41,449 --> 00:33:45,971
And here's where I come out.
964
00:33:45,973 --> 00:33:48,474
I would do it again
965
00:33:48,476 --> 00:33:49,908
because Michael's my brother,
966
00:33:49,910 --> 00:33:51,744
and I protect my family.
967
00:33:51,746 --> 00:33:53,746
I know.
968
00:33:53,748 --> 00:33:56,652
And that's exactly
why he won't fire you.
969
00:33:56,655 --> 00:33:58,154
But you get one
970
00:33:58,157 --> 00:33:59,585
"get out of jail free" card with him,
971
00:33:59,587 --> 00:34:00,787
and you just used it.
972
00:34:02,523 --> 00:34:03,657
So what now?
973
00:34:04,825 --> 00:34:06,558
Come here.
974
00:34:15,405 --> 00:34:18,227
Now go forth and sin no more.
975
00:34:18,230 --> 00:34:19,505
Thanks.
976
00:34:19,507 --> 00:34:21,117
For what?
977
00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:22,587
Trying to get you fired?
978
00:34:22,590 --> 00:34:25,744
For always doing the right thing.
979
00:34:31,452 --> 00:34:33,752
The right thing to do.
980
00:34:35,923 --> 00:34:37,089
Sometimes it seems impossible
981
00:34:37,091 --> 00:34:38,813
to even know what that is anymore.
982
00:34:38,816 --> 00:34:40,191
Yes, sir.
983
00:34:40,194 --> 00:34:42,246
Your case summary
makes it perfectly clear
984
00:34:42,249 --> 00:34:46,035
that Mr. Dern covered for his son.
985
00:34:46,038 --> 00:34:48,967
In his mind, trying
to protect his family.
986
00:34:48,969 --> 00:34:51,870
However misguided,
987
00:34:51,872 --> 00:34:54,106
I don't think anyone
deserves to die for that.
988
00:34:54,108 --> 00:34:56,208
I agree, sir.
989
00:34:56,210 --> 00:34:57,313
But the fact remains
990
00:34:57,316 --> 00:34:58,877
there's a dead federal agent
991
00:34:58,879 --> 00:35:00,433
whose murderer is walking the streets
992
00:35:00,436 --> 00:35:02,948
because Mr. Dern chose
to obstruct justice.
993
00:35:02,950 --> 00:35:05,784
And he has to pay for that.
994
00:35:08,589 --> 00:35:10,980
But not with his life.
995
00:35:10,983 --> 00:35:12,605
So you're commuting his sentence.
996
00:35:12,608 --> 00:35:13,847
Yes, but not his conviction.
997
00:35:13,850 --> 00:35:15,484
He will spend the rest
of his life in prison,
998
00:35:15,486 --> 00:35:17,795
unless he chooses to tell the truth.
999
00:35:19,266 --> 00:35:21,272
Can you please patch me
through to the penitentiary?
1000
00:35:21,274 --> 00:35:22,274
Thank you.
1001
00:35:24,207 --> 00:35:26,374
The car that nearly hit
you was a silver sedan,
1002
00:35:26,377 --> 00:35:28,493
Maryland plates that start with SK1.
1003
00:35:28,496 --> 00:35:30,472
I was able to narrow it to 19 people.
1004
00:35:30,475 --> 00:35:31,808
Did you cross-reference this list
1005
00:35:31,810 --> 00:35:33,142
with connections to Alfonso Lang?
1006
00:35:33,144 --> 00:35:34,043
Yeah. Nothing.
1007
00:35:34,045 --> 00:35:36,345
What about the Federal
Bank of St. Lucia?
1008
00:35:36,347 --> 00:35:37,580
Ran that search too. Nada.
1009
00:35:37,582 --> 00:35:38,748
I'll run a deeper search.
1010
00:35:38,750 --> 00:35:40,082
Look for even tangential contacts
1011
00:35:40,084 --> 00:35:41,670
between these people and Icarus,
1012
00:35:41,673 --> 00:35:42,652
Patrick Lloyd.
1013
00:35:42,654 --> 00:35:44,053
19 cars is a lot of cars.
1014
00:35:44,055 --> 00:35:46,222
Yeah, it's a lot of cars.
1015
00:35:46,224 --> 00:35:48,191
But the person who tried to take me out
1016
00:35:48,193 --> 00:35:49,325
would want to make sure
1017
00:35:49,327 --> 00:35:51,861
that this car wasn't
traced back to them.
1018
00:35:51,863 --> 00:35:54,430
You know what's
interesting about this list?
1019
00:35:54,432 --> 00:35:55,765
One of the cars on it
1020
00:35:55,767 --> 00:35:57,366
was in an accident three days ago.
1021
00:36:01,739 --> 00:36:03,739
- Where are you going?
- I got a hunch.
1022
00:36:03,741 --> 00:36:06,242
And if I'm right, I'll
know who tried to kill me.
1023
00:36:10,590 --> 00:36:12,662
That's good work,
boys. See you tomorrow.
1024
00:36:15,587 --> 00:36:16,689
Agent Wells.
1025
00:36:16,692 --> 00:36:19,033
I assume you heard about
your father's commutation.
1026
00:36:19,036 --> 00:36:19,822
I did.
1027
00:36:19,825 --> 00:36:20,916
Thank you for all your work.
1028
00:36:20,918 --> 00:36:22,557
It's, um, it's been a great relief.
1029
00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:23,900
I'm sure it is.
1030
00:36:23,903 --> 00:36:26,261
It would be a terrible
thing to watch him die
1031
00:36:26,264 --> 00:36:27,631
for a murder you committed.
1032
00:36:29,947 --> 00:36:31,534
I don't know what you're talking about.
1033
00:36:31,536 --> 00:36:33,402
Drop the act, Frank.
1034
00:36:33,404 --> 00:36:35,438
We both know you're never
going to answer for it,
1035
00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:36,806
but you will answer for something.
1036
00:36:36,808 --> 00:36:38,907
- You're making a big mistake.
- No, you did,
1037
00:36:38,910 --> 00:36:41,116
when you used one of the cars
that your shop was repairing
1038
00:36:41,118 --> 00:36:42,686
to try and kill me.
1039
00:36:42,689 --> 00:36:44,712
We know you were driving the car, Frank.
1040
00:36:44,715 --> 00:36:46,915
Your office manager saw you get into it.
1041
00:36:46,918 --> 00:36:48,451
- She's mistaken.
- Put your hands up.
1042
00:36:48,454 --> 00:36:50,072
On the car. Now!
1043
00:36:50,853 --> 00:36:53,155
Saving your dad meant that
I would ruin your reputation,
1044
00:36:53,157 --> 00:36:54,426
so you tried to run me down.
1045
00:36:54,429 --> 00:36:55,428
Well, guess what.
1046
00:36:55,431 --> 00:36:56,459
It's been 16 years,
1047
00:36:56,461 --> 00:36:57,632
but you're finally going to jail,
1048
00:36:57,634 --> 00:36:59,262
you son of a bitch.
1049
00:37:07,934 --> 00:37:09,939
Mr. President, I have
the First Lady for you.
1050
00:37:09,941 --> 00:37:11,173
Thank you, Ava.
1051
00:37:11,175 --> 00:37:12,228
Hey.
1052
00:37:12,231 --> 00:37:13,843
I was just heading up to the Residence.
1053
00:37:13,845 --> 00:37:15,511
I know. This couldn't wait.
1054
00:37:15,513 --> 00:37:17,780
- You need to fire John Foerstel.
- Why?
1055
00:37:17,782 --> 00:37:19,482
Because he is using his office
1056
00:37:19,484 --> 00:37:20,923
to create headlines for himself.
1057
00:37:20,926 --> 00:37:22,752
He is purposely muddying the waters
1058
00:37:22,754 --> 00:37:24,253
for potential political gain.
1059
00:37:24,255 --> 00:37:26,056
He's betraying his oath of office, Tom.
1060
00:37:26,059 --> 00:37:27,823
That is why. Alex, it's not that easy.
1061
00:37:27,825 --> 00:37:29,358
Yes, it is.
1062
00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:31,460
Patrick Lloyd has been
dead for two months,
1063
00:37:31,462 --> 00:37:33,329
and we are still being haunted by him.
1064
00:37:33,331 --> 00:37:34,797
The fabricated bank account,
1065
00:37:34,799 --> 00:37:36,592
The... The conspiracy with Icarus
1066
00:37:36,595 --> 00:37:38,334
that doesn't even exist...
1067
00:37:38,336 --> 00:37:40,503
- None of this is real.
- I know.
1068
00:37:40,505 --> 00:37:41,611
Why are you letting us
1069
00:37:41,614 --> 00:37:43,439
get dragged down by an investigation
1070
00:37:43,441 --> 00:37:45,079
when you can do something about it?
1071
00:37:45,082 --> 00:37:47,843
My staff wants me to
appoint a Special Prosecutor.
1072
00:37:47,845 --> 00:37:49,679
You want me to fire Foerstel.
1073
00:37:49,682 --> 00:37:51,225
All of you are missing the point?
1074
00:37:51,228 --> 00:37:52,329
What is the point, Tom?
1075
00:37:52,332 --> 00:37:54,817
The point is, that your mother
committed a federal crime.
1076
00:37:54,819 --> 00:37:55,985
- Oh!
- 30 years ago maybe,
1077
00:37:55,987 --> 00:37:57,887
but she committed a crime,
and there are consequences,
1078
00:37:57,889 --> 00:37:59,355
and I can't just change the rules
1079
00:37:59,357 --> 00:38:00,404
because it suits us.
1080
00:38:00,407 --> 00:38:03,559
John Foerstel is preparing
to run for Senate.
1081
00:38:03,561 --> 00:38:05,189
He is not playing by the rules.
1082
00:38:05,192 --> 00:38:06,350
Yes, he is, damn it!
1083
00:38:06,353 --> 00:38:07,330
And he's doing his job.
1084
00:38:07,332 --> 00:38:10,095
Maybe not the way we want him to.
1085
00:38:10,098 --> 00:38:11,867
But I can't fire him for that.
1086
00:38:11,869 --> 00:38:13,329
And if I did, who would I be?
1087
00:38:14,339 --> 00:38:15,806
My husband.
1088
00:38:21,012 --> 00:38:23,813
Wow.
1089
00:38:23,815 --> 00:38:25,900
I can't believe you just said that.
1090
00:38:27,512 --> 00:38:29,378
You're questioning my
commitment as a husband
1091
00:38:29,381 --> 00:38:31,214
because I won't interfere
in an investigation
1092
00:38:31,217 --> 00:38:34,285
where we've done
absolutely nothing wrong?
1093
00:38:34,288 --> 00:38:36,288
You're a hell of a lawyer, Alex.
1094
00:38:36,291 --> 00:38:38,494
But you are a lousy defendant.
1095
00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:57,413
More wine?
1096
00:38:57,415 --> 00:38:58,781
Sure.
1097
00:39:00,685 --> 00:39:01,684
Uh-oh.
1098
00:39:01,686 --> 00:39:03,586
- Are we out?
- Yep.
1099
00:39:14,496 --> 00:39:16,298
Burning the midnight oil, Chuck?
1100
00:39:16,300 --> 00:39:17,967
Yeah. Listen. I got something.
1101
00:39:17,970 --> 00:39:19,802
I ran Lang's cellphone. You were right.
1102
00:39:19,804 --> 00:39:20,903
Somebody called him
1103
00:39:20,905 --> 00:39:22,623
right before you got to his condo.
1104
00:39:22,626 --> 00:39:23,606
From a burner.
1105
00:39:23,608 --> 00:39:25,423
- Do we know who it was?
- No.
1106
00:39:25,426 --> 00:39:26,941
But I triangulated the signal
1107
00:39:26,944 --> 00:39:28,611
based on the cellphone towers.
1108
00:39:28,613 --> 00:39:31,447
The call came from Fourth and H.
1109
00:39:31,449 --> 00:39:32,740
2:22 p.m.
1110
00:39:35,620 --> 00:39:37,300
I'm gonna hit the loo.
I'll meet you there.
1111
00:39:37,955 --> 00:39:38,988
Hannah?
1112
00:39:38,990 --> 00:39:40,162
Are you there?
1113
00:39:40,165 --> 00:39:42,259
Yeah.
1114
00:39:42,262 --> 00:39:44,000
Thanks, Chuck. I'll talk to you soon.
1115
00:39:46,306 --> 00:39:47,741
Hey, what's it gonna be?
1116
00:39:47,744 --> 00:39:49,078
Work or pleasure?
1117
00:39:53,805 --> 00:39:55,304
Pleasure.
1118
00:40:08,155 --> 00:40:12,910
