1
00:00:29,015 --> 00:00:32,418
You're off to a good start.
2
00:00:34,587 --> 00:00:37,266
Jason,
why don't you turn that off now?
3
00:00:37,290 --> 00:00:39,335
- Come on, come get some breakfast.
- All right, let me...
4
00:00:39,359 --> 00:00:41,037
- That's enough carnage for 7:00 a.m.
- All right, let me save it.
5
00:00:41,061 --> 00:00:42,171
- Hold on.
- Uh, oh, I'll save it for you.
6
00:00:42,195 --> 00:00:44,440
Well... Dad... come on.
7
00:00:44,464 --> 00:00:45,975
Come on, let's go.
8
00:00:45,999 --> 00:00:47,843
Hey, don't act like you got
some big problem with my game.
9
00:00:47,867 --> 00:00:48,944
You play it, too. Okay.
10
00:00:48,968 --> 00:00:50,546
- Aah!
- Oh, come on!
11
00:00:50,570 --> 00:00:51,814
- Breakfast.
- Oh.
12
00:00:51,838 --> 00:00:53,649
The discovery of hypocrisy.
13
00:00:53,673 --> 00:00:56,819
Bitter moment in any
young revolutionary's life.
14
00:00:56,843 --> 00:00:58,921
Well, kid's got a point, but,
uh, when he's not telling me
15
00:00:58,945 --> 00:01:00,489
how much I suck at this game,
he actually
16
00:01:00,513 --> 00:01:02,058
sometimes tells me
something about his life.
17
00:01:02,082 --> 00:01:04,360
- Right.
- Hey, you okay?
18
00:01:04,384 --> 00:01:05,861
Yeah, I'm good.
19
00:01:05,885 --> 00:01:07,930
'Cause you've been
just going nonstop
20
00:01:07,954 --> 00:01:09,398
since you got back from Iran.
21
00:01:09,422 --> 00:01:11,734
Oh, I'm a little jetlagged still,
but I'm good.
22
00:01:11,758 --> 00:01:12,768
I'm fine.
23
00:01:12,792 --> 00:01:15,705
Promise.
24
00:01:15,729 --> 00:01:18,007
I'm just saying,
going back to school is gonna be
25
00:01:18,031 --> 00:01:19,975
a big adjustment after
lying around here all day,
26
00:01:19,999 --> 00:01:21,310
- playing video games.
- Yeah.
27
00:01:21,334 --> 00:01:22,978
Yeah, you should know, dropout.
28
00:01:23,002 --> 00:01:24,980
- Oh, burn!
- Ooh!
29
00:01:25,004 --> 00:01:25,851
Good comeback, Padawan.
30
00:01:25,875 --> 00:01:28,248
You know that if you get kicked
out of two schools in a row,
31
00:01:28,272 --> 00:01:29,819
you have to go to military school,
right?
32
00:01:29,843 --> 00:01:31,020
It's, like, the law.
33
00:01:31,044 --> 00:01:32,455
- Hey, I could handle military school.
- Yeah, right.
34
00:01:32,479 --> 00:01:34,318
Okay, wait. What about,
uh, home-schooling, pal?
35
00:01:34,342 --> 00:01:35,257
Uh,
I'll stick with public school.
36
00:01:35,281 --> 00:01:37,026
Oh,
come on. Just think of it. You and me
37
00:01:37,050 --> 00:01:39,361
studying all these great books,
38
00:01:39,385 --> 00:01:40,963
spending hours having
philosophical discussions.
39
00:01:40,987 --> 00:01:42,098
Mm. Shoot me now.
40
00:01:42,122 --> 00:01:42,865
Jason.
41
00:01:42,889 --> 00:01:44,689
What did I say?
42
00:01:46,158 --> 00:01:49,305
Well, I'm-I'm glad that you're
on board with public school,
43
00:01:49,329 --> 00:01:51,140
because that is
where you're going.
44
00:01:51,164 --> 00:01:53,743
Oh, we have that-that,
uh, orientation meeting
45
00:01:53,767 --> 00:01:55,244
- at 11:00, okay?
- Yeah, I know.
46
00:01:55,268 --> 00:01:57,213
Listen, um,
I cleared my schedule out this morning.
47
00:01:57,237 --> 00:01:58,914
You want to take the time
off? Maybe we can go...
48
00:01:58,938 --> 00:02:00,182
I can't. I've got meetings.
49
00:02:00,206 --> 00:02:01,283
Then I've got
50
00:02:01,307 --> 00:02:03,919
meetings after those meetings,
so I got to go.
51
00:02:03,943 --> 00:02:05,387
- Bye, guys.
- Bye, Mom.
52
00:02:05,411 --> 00:02:06,756
- Love you.
- Bye, Mom. Love you.
53
00:02:06,780 --> 00:02:07,823
Bye. Ow.
54
00:02:07,847 --> 00:02:08,991
- Nice sensitivity, dumb-ass.
- What...? Dad!
55
00:02:09,015 --> 00:02:10,493
Okay, cut it out, both of you.
56
00:02:10,517 --> 00:02:13,195
The desk officer is
waiting to brief you
57
00:02:13,219 --> 00:02:14,330
on your first meeting.
58
00:02:14,354 --> 00:02:16,132
- Ecuador?
- Yes, ma'am.
59
00:02:16,156 --> 00:02:18,334
And Matt and Daisy are here
60
00:02:18,358 --> 00:02:20,202
to have a word with
you this morning.
61
00:02:20,226 --> 00:02:21,637
Yes, I'm getting that.
62
00:02:21,661 --> 00:02:23,372
Ma'am,
we need to prep you for Face The Nation.
63
00:02:23,396 --> 00:02:24,540
Can't this morning.
64
00:02:24,564 --> 00:02:26,242
I got a thing at
my son's school.
65
00:02:26,266 --> 00:02:28,344
Well, you've been at the center
of everything that's happened.
66
00:02:28,368 --> 00:02:30,379
Unearthing Director
Munsey's plot,
67
00:02:30,403 --> 00:02:31,614
thwarting the coup in Iran.
68
00:02:31,638 --> 00:02:33,249
The White House wants
you front and center
69
00:02:33,273 --> 00:02:35,017
to reassure the public
that everything is okay.
70
00:02:35,041 --> 00:02:37,386
- Well, is it? News to me.
- This...
71
00:02:37,410 --> 00:02:40,923
The point is, ma'am, I mean,
if there's a hero in this story,
72
00:02:40,947 --> 00:02:42,625
- it's you.
- What did you just say?
73
00:02:42,649 --> 00:02:44,226
Because what I thought
74
00:02:44,250 --> 00:02:46,796
you said is that I'm
the hero of this story?
75
00:02:46,820 --> 00:02:48,430
Excuse me,
ma'am. Daisy didn't mean to imply...
76
00:02:48,454 --> 00:02:49,865
Excuse me, Nadine.
77
00:02:49,889 --> 00:02:52,168
See, what's confusing
78
00:02:52,192 --> 00:02:54,703
is how you could possibly
say something like that,
79
00:02:54,727 --> 00:02:58,207
just days after you
attended Fred Cole's funeral.
80
00:02:58,231 --> 00:03:01,377
Man who literally threw
himself in front of bullets
81
00:03:01,401 --> 00:03:02,945
to save me.
82
00:03:02,969 --> 00:03:05,915
Which is the very
definition of heroism.
83
00:03:05,939 --> 00:03:07,650
You come at me with this
84
00:03:07,674 --> 00:03:11,053
win-the-cycle crap again,
it'll be the last time you do.
85
00:03:11,077 --> 00:03:12,788
You understand?
86
00:03:12,812 --> 00:03:15,780
- Yes.
- Yes, ma'am.
87
00:03:17,416 --> 00:03:20,529
Why is there a nurse
in my waiting area?
88
00:03:20,553 --> 00:03:22,531
Oh, she's here to follow up
89
00:03:22,555 --> 00:03:24,433
on the exam you
received at Landstuhl.
90
00:03:24,457 --> 00:03:27,136
You kept rescheduling,
so I had someone from Walter Reed
91
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:28,938
- sent over.
- I had said I would go
92
00:03:28,962 --> 00:03:30,873
- to my own doctor when I had the time.
- Mm-hmm.
93
00:03:30,897 --> 00:03:32,608
They needed a follow-up ASAP,
ma'am.
94
00:03:32,632 --> 00:03:33,876
It's literally doctor's orders.
95
00:03:33,900 --> 00:03:35,911
Et tu, Blake?
96
00:03:35,935 --> 00:03:38,747
You're healing well,
Madam Secretary.
97
00:03:38,771 --> 00:03:41,116
Stitches should be ready
to come out in a few days.
98
00:03:41,140 --> 00:03:42,151
Fantastic.
99
00:03:42,175 --> 00:03:43,919
Are you having any pain, ma'am?
100
00:03:43,943 --> 00:03:45,621
Nope. None.
101
00:03:45,645 --> 00:03:48,324
Then, um,
I just need to draw your blood.
102
00:03:48,348 --> 00:03:51,126
Well, I'm on a tight schedule.
103
00:03:51,150 --> 00:03:54,997
I hope you don't
mind if I multitask.
104
00:03:55,021 --> 00:03:57,233
So, what does the CEO
105
00:03:57,257 --> 00:04:00,202
of one of America's
biggest oil companies want
106
00:04:00,226 --> 00:04:02,338
from a peon like the
Secretary of State?
107
00:04:02,362 --> 00:04:04,006
Chip Harding is here
because he believes
108
00:04:04,030 --> 00:04:06,108
you should be doing more
to help Ashmont Petroleum
109
00:04:06,132 --> 00:04:07,910
secure drilling
rights in Ecuador,
110
00:04:07,934 --> 00:04:09,044
as opposed to the Chinese.
111
00:04:09,068 --> 00:04:12,281
But the proposed area of
the Amazon is highly sensitive,
112
00:04:12,305 --> 00:04:14,116
which is what our desk officer
113
00:04:14,140 --> 00:04:15,918
for the region is
here to discuss.
114
00:04:15,942 --> 00:04:17,519
It's Laura, right?
115
00:04:17,543 --> 00:04:19,488
Uh, yes, ma'am.
116
00:04:19,512 --> 00:04:23,025
Let me first say how thrilled
I am to finally meet you in...
117
00:04:23,049 --> 00:04:24,693
person.
118
00:04:24,717 --> 00:04:28,063
Uh, you okay there, Laura?
119
00:04:28,087 --> 00:04:31,066
Yeah. Just have a little thing about,
um...
120
00:04:31,090 --> 00:04:33,102
blood. Um...
121
00:04:33,126 --> 00:04:35,104
- Oh.
- Very sorry, but I'm fine.
122
00:04:35,128 --> 00:04:36,438
Quite all right.
123
00:04:36,462 --> 00:04:38,574
Why don't we just get right to it,
then?
124
00:04:38,598 --> 00:04:40,276
Yes, ma'am. As you may have read
125
00:04:40,300 --> 00:04:42,511
in your briefing book,
the Selva Region of eastern Ecuador
126
00:04:42,535 --> 00:04:44,713
is one of the most bio-diverse
areas of the Amazon,
127
00:04:44,737 --> 00:04:45,881
and indeed the world.
128
00:04:45,905 --> 00:04:47,149
Home to... count them...
129
00:04:47,173 --> 00:04:50,085
ten primate species,
including the rare Titi monkey.
130
00:04:50,109 --> 00:04:52,154
- There's an image for you.
- Developing it
131
00:04:52,178 --> 00:04:53,923
would be extremely
damaging to the
132
00:04:53,947 --> 00:04:58,149
local... um... but also...
133
00:05:00,919 --> 00:05:03,565
But also,
it is important to remember
134
00:05:03,589 --> 00:05:06,502
that the Amazon is
the world's carbon sink
135
00:05:06,526 --> 00:05:09,104
where much of the CO2
we produce is absorbed
136
00:05:09,128 --> 00:05:11,974
- by the trees of...
- Uh-oh. - Oh, God.
137
00:05:11,998 --> 00:05:14,032
So embarrassed. Excuse me,
ma'am.
138
00:05:15,468 --> 00:05:16,979
- Okay.
- Hope she makes it
139
00:05:17,003 --> 00:05:18,681
to the porcelain sink in time.
140
00:05:18,705 --> 00:05:21,417
Why don't you go
see if she's okay.
141
00:05:21,441 --> 00:05:24,053
Right, the point being,
if a tract this big is developed,
142
00:05:24,077 --> 00:05:27,656
it will speed up the
deforestation process,
143
00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:29,358
which will ultimately
lead to what?
144
00:05:29,382 --> 00:05:30,659
Ocean acidification,
species die-offs,
145
00:05:30,683 --> 00:05:33,495
larger and more
unpredictable weather events,
146
00:05:33,519 --> 00:05:35,097
increased climate-driven
conflicts and refugees.
147
00:05:35,121 --> 00:05:38,367
You know, your typical 21st
century end-of-the-world buffet.
148
00:05:38,391 --> 00:05:39,468
Got it.
149
00:05:39,492 --> 00:05:41,103
Sorry. False alarm.
150
00:05:41,127 --> 00:05:43,839
Ma'am, there are more tree
species in a single hectare
151
00:05:43,863 --> 00:05:46,308
of the Selva region than
in all of North America.
152
00:05:46,332 --> 00:05:48,177
If there's a cure
for cancer or HIV,
153
00:05:48,201 --> 00:05:49,311
we will probably find it there.
154
00:05:49,335 --> 00:05:50,746
Counterpoint.
155
00:05:50,770 --> 00:05:53,082
Chip Harding donates millions
of dollars each election cycle,
156
00:05:53,106 --> 00:05:56,452
which will either be used
for or against your president.
157
00:05:56,476 --> 00:05:57,820
Just something to weigh against
158
00:05:57,844 --> 00:05:58,921
the sad monkeys and magic trees.
159
00:05:58,945 --> 00:06:01,657
And it is part of our job to
promote U.S. businesses abroad,
160
00:06:01,681 --> 00:06:03,392
but if we want to have
a voice in the decision,
161
00:06:03,416 --> 00:06:04,727
we need to act now.
162
00:06:04,751 --> 00:06:06,528
The Ecuadorians are
planning whether to develop
163
00:06:06,552 --> 00:06:08,130
the Selva within a month.
164
00:06:08,154 --> 00:06:09,965
Oh, plenty of time.
165
00:06:09,989 --> 00:06:13,390
All right, why don't we go see
what we can do for Mr. Harding.
166
00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:18,462
Ma'am.
167
00:06:19,498 --> 00:06:21,677
- Oh!
- Oh. Have fun.
168
00:06:21,701 --> 00:06:22,878
I got it. I got it.
169
00:06:22,902 --> 00:06:25,014
Okay. What are
you even doing here?
170
00:06:25,038 --> 00:06:26,515
I'm attending your
meeting with Chip...
171
00:06:26,539 --> 00:06:27,716
Chip Harding, ma'am.
172
00:06:27,740 --> 00:06:29,518
Okay, isn't Abby about to
go into labor any second?
173
00:06:29,542 --> 00:06:31,253
- Literally any second.
- So, go, go.
174
00:06:31,277 --> 00:06:33,322
I can handle Harding by myself.
175
00:06:33,346 --> 00:06:35,424
If I need more information,
I'll get it from Laura back...
176
00:06:35,448 --> 00:06:36,925
Brilliant, and she really
wanted to make an impression.
177
00:06:36,949 --> 00:06:38,360
Oh, she did. It's all set.
178
00:06:38,384 --> 00:06:39,628
- Go right now.
- Here.
179
00:06:39,652 --> 00:06:41,563
- Okay. There you go.
- Oh, there. Thank you.
180
00:06:41,587 --> 00:06:43,499
Tell Abby to get
the epidural early!
181
00:06:43,523 --> 00:06:44,533
You got it!
182
00:06:44,557 --> 00:06:46,168
Key word: early.
183
00:06:46,192 --> 00:06:50,639
Madam Secretary, I'm busy,
and I'm sure you are, too,
184
00:06:50,663 --> 00:06:52,474
so I'll get straight
to the point.
185
00:06:52,498 --> 00:06:53,609
I would love it
186
00:06:53,633 --> 00:06:56,078
if the government would
just get out of our way.
187
00:06:56,102 --> 00:06:58,113
Or better yet,
help us out for once.
188
00:06:58,137 --> 00:06:59,448
There's a concept.
189
00:06:59,472 --> 00:07:01,583
What is it that you
feel isn't being done
190
00:07:01,607 --> 00:07:03,185
for the oil industry,
Mr. Harding?
191
00:07:03,209 --> 00:07:05,187
The SEC and Justice are
breathing down our neck
192
00:07:05,211 --> 00:07:07,356
about the Foreign
Corrupt Practices Act.
193
00:07:07,380 --> 00:07:10,192
Do take a dim view of
bribing foreign officials, yes.
194
00:07:10,216 --> 00:07:12,594
Come on,
you know full well that that's the way
195
00:07:12,618 --> 00:07:14,630
business gets done
in places like Ecuador.
196
00:07:14,654 --> 00:07:16,165
And let me tell you something.
197
00:07:16,189 --> 00:07:17,666
The Chinese aren't
wringing their hands
198
00:07:17,690 --> 00:07:18,834
about doing business.
199
00:07:18,858 --> 00:07:20,702
Given that I can't help
you bribe anybody,
200
00:07:20,726 --> 00:07:23,038
what exactly would you like
the State Department to do?
201
00:07:23,062 --> 00:07:24,173
Offer them aid.
202
00:07:24,197 --> 00:07:26,175
Help in developing
vital infrastructure.
203
00:07:26,199 --> 00:07:27,543
We do give them aid.
204
00:07:27,567 --> 00:07:31,880
$218 million last year,
to be exact, but it does come
205
00:07:31,904 --> 00:07:34,316
with anti-corruption
safeguards built in.
206
00:07:34,340 --> 00:07:37,986
So, sorry if that's not helping
you grease the wheels.
207
00:07:38,010 --> 00:07:40,289
Look, the Selva's too
valuable not to be developed.
208
00:07:40,313 --> 00:07:41,490
That's just the facts.
209
00:07:41,514 --> 00:07:42,724
Who do you and the president
210
00:07:42,748 --> 00:07:44,193
prefer to see do it...
us or the Chinese?
211
00:07:44,217 --> 00:07:45,594
I guarantee you we care
212
00:07:45,618 --> 00:07:48,997
very deeply about what happens
in the Selva region, and I will
213
00:07:49,021 --> 00:07:51,366
bear your concerns
in mind when I meet
214
00:07:51,390 --> 00:07:52,568
with the Ecuadorian ambassador.
215
00:07:52,592 --> 00:07:55,192
Thank you so much for coming in.
216
00:08:02,267 --> 00:08:03,912
A great game is afoot,
Madam Secretary,
217
00:08:03,936 --> 00:08:07,449
and we can't win it with one
hand tied behind our back.
218
00:08:07,473 --> 00:08:09,885
I hope the president
understands that.
219
00:08:09,909 --> 00:08:12,087
Thank you for your time.
220
00:08:12,111 --> 00:08:14,923
You bet.
221
00:08:14,947 --> 00:08:16,959
Everyone okay?
222
00:08:16,983 --> 00:08:19,995
Well,
it's not like we have hurt feelies.
223
00:08:20,019 --> 00:08:21,663
Although,
that was quite an outburst.
224
00:08:21,687 --> 00:08:23,599
I understand she's
been through a lot,
225
00:08:23,623 --> 00:08:26,259
but the fact is,
she needs to prep for Face the Nation.
226
00:08:26,283 --> 00:08:28,704
I'll try to block out some time in
her schedule for this afternoon.
227
00:08:28,728 --> 00:08:30,772
It's not like we're
being overly dramatic.
228
00:08:30,796 --> 00:08:32,174
Rogue CIA director
229
00:08:32,198 --> 00:08:34,209
starts a coup in Iran under
the White House's nose?
230
00:08:34,233 --> 00:08:36,111
And the only reason
it fails is because
231
00:08:36,135 --> 00:08:37,679
she literally puts
herself in the line of fire.
232
00:08:37,703 --> 00:08:39,381
That's a huge story.
233
00:08:39,405 --> 00:08:40,315
Huge.
234
00:08:40,339 --> 00:08:41,450
I'm aware.
235
00:08:41,474 --> 00:08:42,551
And so is the public,
but they haven't
236
00:08:42,575 --> 00:08:44,186
seen her since the
funerals three days ago.
237
00:08:44,210 --> 00:08:46,755
And the longer they don't,
the more she's gonna be pulled
238
00:08:46,779 --> 00:08:48,290
into the morass of
suspicion and blame.
239
00:08:48,314 --> 00:08:51,226
She needs to tell her story,
and she can't just wing it.
240
00:08:51,250 --> 00:08:52,995
As it says
241
00:08:53,019 --> 00:08:55,731
in your packet,
drop-off is between 7:30 and 7:50,
242
00:08:55,755 --> 00:08:57,766
but there can be a bit of a line sometimes,
so it's worth
243
00:08:57,790 --> 00:08:59,990
- getting here early.
- Maybe if we had a different kid.
244
00:09:01,661 --> 00:09:03,238
Well, that covers it.
245
00:09:03,262 --> 00:09:04,740
Welcome to Monroe Junior High.
246
00:09:04,764 --> 00:09:09,011
I'd like to revisit the
security issue if I may.
247
00:09:09,035 --> 00:09:10,379
Uh, of course.
248
00:09:10,403 --> 00:09:13,515
Uh, as I mentioned,
249
00:09:13,539 --> 00:09:15,284
student safety is our
number one priority.
250
00:09:15,308 --> 00:09:16,618
We have two full-time
251
00:09:16,642 --> 00:09:19,388
security officers,
metal detectors at every entrance
252
00:09:19,412 --> 00:09:22,090
and a zero-tolerance policy
on weapons and bullying.
253
00:09:22,114 --> 00:09:24,893
Jason will be in good hands here,
Mrs. McCord.
254
00:09:24,917 --> 00:09:26,028
I'm sure he will be.
255
00:09:26,052 --> 00:09:27,663
The thing is, I'm not.
256
00:09:27,687 --> 00:09:30,299
I'd like to provide Jason
with a security detail.
257
00:09:30,323 --> 00:09:32,100
- Wait. What?
- No, no.
258
00:09:32,124 --> 00:09:33,936
Nothing obtrusive, just one man.
259
00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,872
Given who I am and what I do,
I feel that it's necessary.
260
00:09:36,896 --> 00:09:39,007
Will you excuse
us for one minute?
261
00:09:39,031 --> 00:09:40,175
Absolutely.
262
00:09:40,199 --> 00:09:42,211
Do you want to tell
me what's going on?
263
00:09:42,235 --> 00:09:43,512
Just what I said.
264
00:09:43,536 --> 00:09:46,215
I think Jason
needs extra security.
265
00:09:46,239 --> 00:09:47,349
Well, the threat assessment guys
266
00:09:47,373 --> 00:09:48,917
at Diplomatic Security
don't think he does.
267
00:09:48,941 --> 00:09:50,452
- Well, I'm their boss.
- Not when it comes
268
00:09:50,476 --> 00:09:52,354
to assigning a security detail,
you're not.
269
00:09:52,378 --> 00:09:54,856
Besides,
you said you wanted Jason to have as normal
270
00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:56,825
a school experience as possible,
as did I.
271
00:09:56,849 --> 00:09:57,960
We settled this.
272
00:09:57,984 --> 00:10:01,230
I am fourth in line for the
presidency of the United States.
273
00:10:01,254 --> 00:10:03,465
He doesn't get to
be a normal child.
274
00:10:03,489 --> 00:10:05,767
Okay. Is this about
what happened in Iran?
275
00:10:05,791 --> 00:10:07,002
No.
276
00:10:07,026 --> 00:10:09,037
Because if you want to talk to me,
then, please...
277
00:10:09,061 --> 00:10:11,361
Why can't you just
back me up on this?
278
00:10:18,570 --> 00:10:20,971
Okay.
279
00:10:22,974 --> 00:10:24,219
I'll tell you what.
280
00:10:24,243 --> 00:10:25,454
I will call Diplomatic Security
281
00:10:25,478 --> 00:10:27,856
and have them send me
over a couple of candidates.
282
00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:29,591
How's that?
283
00:10:29,615 --> 00:10:32,015
Thank you.
284
00:10:34,352 --> 00:10:38,722
I have to get back to work,
so I'll see you tonight.
285
00:10:43,112 --> 00:10:49,423
Subtitle sync and corrections by awaqeded
for www.addic7ed.com. Web dl sync snarry.
286
00:10:59,611 --> 00:11:01,490
Professor McCord?
287
00:11:01,514 --> 00:11:04,092
I'm thinking you're
the bodyguard.
288
00:11:04,116 --> 00:11:05,267
Uh, call me Henry.
289
00:11:05,291 --> 00:11:07,624
- Come on in.
- Kevin Boyd.
290
00:11:10,262 --> 00:11:11,999
You got quite a resume.
291
00:11:12,023 --> 00:11:13,801
Six years doing
security at State.
292
00:11:13,825 --> 00:11:16,237
Before that,
ten years as a recon Marine. Oorah.
293
00:11:16,261 --> 00:11:19,941
Yes, sir. Forcecon,
2nd Division out of Lejeune.
294
00:11:19,965 --> 00:11:21,676
You serve in the Corps?
295
00:11:21,700 --> 00:11:23,778
Third MAW out of Miramar. I
flew Hornets in Desert Storm.
296
00:11:23,802 --> 00:11:25,947
- You know, the original.
- Oorah, sir.
297
00:11:25,971 --> 00:11:28,216
I did a couple tours
in the sequel myself.
298
00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:30,614
Ah, but the question is,
has all your extensive combat experience
299
00:11:30,638 --> 00:11:32,783
prepared you to take a
13-year-old to middle school?
300
00:11:32,807 --> 00:11:35,852
Let's just say,
no one will be taking Jason's milk money.
301
00:11:35,876 --> 00:11:37,954
I'm gonna be honest with you.
302
00:11:37,978 --> 00:11:40,357
This is really less about
an actual security threat
303
00:11:40,381 --> 00:11:42,125
and more about an
abundance of caution.
304
00:11:42,149 --> 00:11:45,017
Peace of mind. Copy that, sir.
305
00:11:45,652 --> 00:11:47,597
Let me ask you something.
306
00:11:47,621 --> 00:11:50,367
You saw a lot of action,
so I'm sure you know guys
307
00:11:50,391 --> 00:11:51,935
that came back with issues,
yeah?
308
00:11:51,959 --> 00:11:53,904
- You mean PTSD?
- Yeah.
309
00:11:53,928 --> 00:11:56,473
In-in your experience,
how did that manifest?
310
00:11:56,497 --> 00:11:59,943
Well, due respect, sir,
with your experience,
311
00:11:59,967 --> 00:12:02,479
you must have seen
a fair share yourself.
312
00:12:02,503 --> 00:12:05,248
My buddies and I were dropping
ordinance from 30,000 feet.
313
00:12:05,272 --> 00:12:07,217
Now, that's a thing,
but it ain't Fallujah.
314
00:12:07,241 --> 00:12:09,486
I'm just curious
how it looked to you.
315
00:12:09,510 --> 00:12:13,457
Well, a lot of guys don't sleep,
temper's on a hair-trigger,
316
00:12:13,481 --> 00:12:17,227
usually they're having flashbacks,
they're hyper-vigilant.
317
00:12:17,251 --> 00:12:20,430
I got a buddy,
can't drive anymore.
318
00:12:20,454 --> 00:12:22,032
Thinks every piece
of trash he sees
319
00:12:22,056 --> 00:12:23,967
lying in the gutter
is hiding an IED.
320
00:12:23,991 --> 00:12:26,636
Yeah, there's not much you can do,
besides be there for them.
321
00:12:26,660 --> 00:12:28,405
You can try to get them help,
322
00:12:28,429 --> 00:12:31,475
but they're not gonna
talk until they're ready, so...
323
00:12:31,499 --> 00:12:35,011
But just so we're crystal clear here,
sir, I don't have...
324
00:12:35,035 --> 00:12:36,079
Oh, I... I trust you.
325
00:12:36,103 --> 00:12:38,782
Hey, listen,
the job is yours if you want it.
326
00:12:38,806 --> 00:12:42,018
I'm just concerned you're
a little too inconspicuous.
327
00:12:42,042 --> 00:12:44,621
That's usually the deal-breaker.
328
00:12:44,645 --> 00:12:46,423
I am meeting with the
Ecuadorian Ambassador
329
00:12:46,447 --> 00:12:48,158
in five minutes.
What don't I know?
330
00:12:48,182 --> 00:12:50,193
International conservation
groups have a plan
331
00:12:50,217 --> 00:12:51,828
that would pay Ecuador to turn
332
00:12:51,852 --> 00:12:55,031
the entire Selva Region
into a protected preserve.
333
00:12:55,055 --> 00:12:58,368
So, essentially,
they would bribe Ecuador
334
00:12:58,392 --> 00:13:00,370
not to despoil its
own rainforest?
335
00:13:00,394 --> 00:13:02,172
That's the idea, ma'am, yes.
336
00:13:02,196 --> 00:13:03,940
And the Ecuadorians
have actually
337
00:13:03,964 --> 00:13:05,809
been receptive to the plan.
338
00:13:05,833 --> 00:13:07,777
Well, who doesn't like a bribe?
339
00:13:07,801 --> 00:13:09,579
Okay, but?
340
00:13:09,603 --> 00:13:12,315
So far, no one's been inclined
to kick in the start-up costs,
341
00:13:12,339 --> 00:13:13,583
which are in the low billions.
342
00:13:13,607 --> 00:13:15,218
Especially when the
potential oil revenues
343
00:13:15,242 --> 00:13:16,786
could be a hundred times that.
344
00:13:16,810 --> 00:13:18,655
So what are you pitching me?
345
00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:20,290
Ah...
346
00:13:20,314 --> 00:13:22,459
You want us to do
nothing with the Selva?
347
00:13:22,483 --> 00:13:24,227
Not nothing,
Ambassador Calderon.
348
00:13:24,251 --> 00:13:25,962
I'm suggesting that
you move forward
349
00:13:25,986 --> 00:13:28,398
with the plan to turn it
into a protected preserve.
350
00:13:28,422 --> 00:13:30,600
Please. Your current Congress
351
00:13:30,624 --> 00:13:32,969
would never allot
such a large sum
352
00:13:32,993 --> 00:13:34,604
for rainforest conservation.
353
00:13:34,628 --> 00:13:38,441
Maybe coca eradication,
but let's ask our neighbors,
354
00:13:38,465 --> 00:13:40,877
the Colombians,
how that's working out for the environment.
355
00:13:40,901 --> 00:13:42,245
I know it's a stretch,
356
00:13:42,269 --> 00:13:44,414
and, obviously,
there are some trust issues.
357
00:13:44,438 --> 00:13:46,316
To put it mildly.
358
00:13:46,340 --> 00:13:47,751
We're still
cleaning up oil spills
359
00:13:47,775 --> 00:13:50,754
American companies
caused in the 1970s.
360
00:13:50,778 --> 00:13:53,189
But if I could get the money,
which I am working on right now,
361
00:13:53,213 --> 00:13:55,725
would your government
consider preserving the entirety
362
00:13:55,749 --> 00:13:58,150
of the Selva Region?
363
00:13:59,686 --> 00:14:04,100
If you could match the Chinese offer,
perhaps.
364
00:14:04,124 --> 00:14:05,702
But you can't.
365
00:14:05,726 --> 00:14:09,472
And certainly not within
a plausible time frame.
366
00:14:09,496 --> 00:14:12,275
So, and with all due respect,
Madam Secretary,
367
00:14:12,299 --> 00:14:14,511
we stick with the Chinese.
368
00:14:14,535 --> 00:14:17,470
They're not your friends,
you know.
369
00:14:18,839 --> 00:14:21,807
But then... they
don't pretend to be.
370
00:14:22,942 --> 00:14:26,823
Madam Secretary,
welcome to Face the Nation.
371
00:14:26,847 --> 00:14:29,326
Thank you,
pretend Bob Schieffer.
372
00:14:29,350 --> 00:14:32,596
Matt,
not so much with the voice.
373
00:14:32,620 --> 00:14:35,532
- Come on.
- Oh, but he's so sadly proud of it.
374
00:14:35,556 --> 00:14:38,535
Fine. Your loss.
375
00:14:38,559 --> 00:14:42,672
Madam Secretary,
recent events paint a troubling picture
376
00:14:42,696 --> 00:14:44,507
of the Dalton Administration.
377
00:14:44,531 --> 00:14:48,111
Should America be worried
about this president's leadership?
378
00:14:48,135 --> 00:14:49,879
Not at all.
379
00:14:49,903 --> 00:14:52,248
Andrew Munsey was
a very capable spy.
380
00:14:52,272 --> 00:14:56,319
He managed to hide his
traitorous acts for quite some time.
381
00:14:56,343 --> 00:14:58,588
But the moment the
president learned of them,
382
00:14:58,612 --> 00:15:02,993
he leapt into action and saved the nation,
and the world,
383
00:15:03,017 --> 00:15:04,494
from a dangerous fate.
384
00:15:04,518 --> 00:15:07,130
Well,
some would argue that you did that,
385
00:15:07,154 --> 00:15:10,266
first by uncovering the conspiracy,
and second
386
00:15:10,290 --> 00:15:14,037
by your unprecedented
trip to Iran.
387
00:15:14,061 --> 00:15:15,405
Come on,
he's not gonna ask that.
388
00:15:15,429 --> 00:15:21,077
Oh, well, it's a fair
interpretation of the facts, ma'am.
389
00:15:21,101 --> 00:15:23,101
Uh, fine.
390
00:15:27,573 --> 00:15:30,053
While I was glad to do my part,
391
00:15:30,077 --> 00:15:32,455
the fact that we are
now on the other side
392
00:15:32,479 --> 00:15:36,826
of a constitutional and
global crisis is a testament
393
00:15:36,850 --> 00:15:39,117
to our president's
courageous leadership.
394
00:15:40,219 --> 00:15:42,365
Madam Secretary,
you were present
395
00:15:42,389 --> 00:15:45,402
when Iranian Foreign
Minister Javani was killed,
396
00:15:45,426 --> 00:15:47,370
along with several others.
397
00:15:47,394 --> 00:15:49,039
Yeah. Yes, I was.
398
00:15:49,063 --> 00:15:52,375
Tell me about that
horrifying scene.
399
00:15:52,399 --> 00:15:56,102
Who was there with you,
and-and what happened?
400
00:16:10,150 --> 00:16:12,452
Abdol!
401
00:16:16,956 --> 00:16:19,824
Abdol, stay down!
402
00:16:21,294 --> 00:16:23,762
Ma'am?
403
00:16:24,897 --> 00:16:26,331
Ma'am?
404
00:16:28,968 --> 00:16:32,282
Want to give me that again?
405
00:16:32,306 --> 00:16:34,417
- Uh, sure.
- Um, you know what?
406
00:16:34,441 --> 00:16:37,754
Why don't we take a break? Okay?
407
00:16:37,778 --> 00:16:40,178
Yup.
408
00:16:42,682 --> 00:16:43,993
What the hell was that?
409
00:16:44,017 --> 00:16:45,795
It's five seconds of dead air.
410
00:16:45,819 --> 00:16:49,220
Well, arguably,
that was a little more than that, Daisy.
411
00:16:50,823 --> 00:16:52,802
I understand that,
but whatever it was,
412
00:16:52,826 --> 00:16:54,738
it wasn't exactly the
image of calm stability
413
00:16:54,762 --> 00:16:56,673
the White House
is looking to project.
414
00:16:56,697 --> 00:16:58,641
I think we should
cancel. We can't risk her
415
00:16:58,665 --> 00:17:00,076
having an incident
like that on television.
416
00:17:00,100 --> 00:17:01,344
You want to tell her that?
417
00:17:01,368 --> 00:17:05,248
Call the show, make her
appearance subject to availability.
418
00:17:05,272 --> 00:17:06,983
We'll take another
run at this tomorrow.
419
00:17:07,007 --> 00:17:08,585
If she's still tentative,
420
00:17:08,609 --> 00:17:10,653
we've laid the groundwork
for a postponement.
421
00:17:10,677 --> 00:17:12,544
- On it.
- Okay.
422
00:17:28,728 --> 00:17:31,040
Jason, this is
423
00:17:31,064 --> 00:17:32,973
- about your safety.
- Yeah, well, then I'll be safe
424
00:17:32,997 --> 00:17:34,310
at home, because I'm not going.
425
00:17:34,334 --> 00:17:35,945
You guys can't just
spring this on me.
426
00:17:35,969 --> 00:17:38,148
You said I'd be a normal
kid at a normal school.
427
00:17:38,172 --> 00:17:39,849
- This isn't fair!
- And yet, this is happening,
428
00:17:39,873 --> 00:17:41,885
so I need you to get your
stuff and get on board.
429
00:17:41,909 --> 00:17:43,364
Kevin, can we have a couple minutes,
please?
430
00:17:43,388 --> 00:17:45,199
Of course.
431
00:17:47,613 --> 00:17:49,826
- Jason, grab your stuff.
- No, no, Dad, I'm not...
432
00:17:49,850 --> 00:17:51,683
Just do it, son.
433
00:17:56,989 --> 00:17:59,224
- I love you.
- Uh-huh.
434
00:18:03,030 --> 00:18:05,542
Well, he's right,
babe. It isn't fair.
435
00:18:05,566 --> 00:18:07,277
- Well, life isn't fair.
- Huh.
436
00:18:07,301 --> 00:18:09,112
- In this house, it is.
- I knew it.
437
00:18:09,136 --> 00:18:10,547
I knew you would
make me the bad guy.
438
00:18:10,571 --> 00:18:14,818
And then, you had to pick, like,
the biggest guy on the planet
439
00:18:14,842 --> 00:18:16,519
just to push all of
Jason's buttons.
440
00:18:16,543 --> 00:18:18,988
Okay, look,
I know that you have been through a lot,
441
00:18:19,012 --> 00:18:20,890
and that you don't
want to talk about it.
442
00:18:20,914 --> 00:18:23,193
- Don't psychoanalyze me.
- But maybe that's behind
443
00:18:23,217 --> 00:18:24,894
your sudden obsession
with Jason's security...
444
00:18:24,918 --> 00:18:26,629
And don't condescend to me,
Henry!
445
00:18:26,653 --> 00:18:28,531
- We don't talk to each other that way.
- If you had seen
446
00:18:28,555 --> 00:18:30,233
what I've seen,
you would want him
447
00:18:30,257 --> 00:18:31,601
to have protection, too, okay?
448
00:18:31,625 --> 00:18:32,936
He doesn't need it.
449
00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:35,505
So, we either keep our
word and let him go to school
450
00:18:35,529 --> 00:18:36,706
without security,
or he stays home.
451
00:18:36,730 --> 00:18:38,274
Okay,
so it's okay for you not to fight fair.
452
00:18:38,298 --> 00:18:40,510
Is that how we do
it now? Is that it?
453
00:18:40,534 --> 00:18:42,478
On this one,
yeah. We're not gonna let your issues...
454
00:18:42,502 --> 00:18:43,947
- My issues?!
- Force Jason
455
00:18:43,971 --> 00:18:45,114
to be treated unfairly.
456
00:18:45,138 --> 00:18:47,906
- What are my issues?
- Are you ready to talk?
457
00:18:49,141 --> 00:18:52,110
Let's talk.
458
00:18:53,679 --> 00:18:56,526
Fine. I don't have
time for this. You win.
459
00:18:56,550 --> 00:18:58,950
Okay?
460
00:19:02,088 --> 00:19:04,305
And the Italian embassy
wants to honor you
461
00:19:04,329 --> 00:19:06,241
with a dinner on the 24th.
462
00:19:06,265 --> 00:19:09,477
Well,
it's worth saying yes just for the food.
463
00:19:09,501 --> 00:19:12,247
What's this, uh,
"subject to availability" BS
464
00:19:12,271 --> 00:19:14,182
- I'm hearing?
- Russell Jackson, ma'am.
465
00:19:14,206 --> 00:19:16,151
Thanks for the heads-up,
Blake. Uh, which BS
466
00:19:16,175 --> 00:19:17,991
- is that, Russell?
- Face The Nation.
467
00:19:18,015 --> 00:19:19,187
You put a pin in
your appearance.
468
00:19:19,211 --> 00:19:20,321
I was wondering why.
469
00:19:20,345 --> 00:19:23,424
Well,
since this is the first time
470
00:19:23,448 --> 00:19:26,227
I'm hearing about it,
so would I.
471
00:19:26,251 --> 00:19:28,530
I thought it would be better
472
00:19:28,554 --> 00:19:30,532
to leave some flexibility there,
ma'am.
473
00:19:30,556 --> 00:19:31,899
Why?
474
00:19:31,923 --> 00:19:36,103
Hey, you don't get to interrogate my staff,
Russell.
475
00:19:36,127 --> 00:19:38,338
But I think they're just
trying to protect me.
476
00:19:38,362 --> 00:19:39,806
In prep yesterday,
477
00:19:39,830 --> 00:19:42,609
I was still a little jetlagged,
but I'll be fine on the day.
478
00:19:42,633 --> 00:19:45,513
And just to be clear,
I am doing the show.
479
00:19:45,525 --> 00:19:46,380
Yes, ma'am.
480
00:19:46,404 --> 00:19:47,881
Wonderful.
481
00:19:47,905 --> 00:19:51,051
You have a second to talk
about Ecuador with me?
482
00:19:51,075 --> 00:19:52,553
Sure. Um, Laura,
will you join us, please?
483
00:19:52,577 --> 00:19:54,855
I also hear
484
00:19:54,879 --> 00:19:56,990
we're handing over one
of the biggest oil fields
485
00:19:57,014 --> 00:19:59,293
in the hemisphere
to the Chinese?
486
00:19:59,317 --> 00:20:02,229
Got a testy phone call from Chip Harding,
did we?
487
00:20:02,253 --> 00:20:04,231
Is there any other kind?
488
00:20:04,255 --> 00:20:06,266
You know the
president is committed
489
00:20:06,290 --> 00:20:07,901
to weaning us off
Middle Eastern oil.
490
00:20:07,925 --> 00:20:10,571
He's also committed to
preserving the Amazon.
491
00:20:10,595 --> 00:20:13,273
Which is why we are
signatories to RACTO,
492
00:20:13,297 --> 00:20:14,575
or whatever the hell that is.
493
00:20:14,599 --> 00:20:15,676
Rainforests of the Americas.
494
00:20:15,700 --> 00:20:17,144
Conservation Treaty Organization,
sir.
495
00:20:17,168 --> 00:20:20,214
You're the fainter, aren't you?
496
00:20:20,238 --> 00:20:21,481
Mm.
497
00:20:21,505 --> 00:20:23,483
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
498
00:20:23,507 --> 00:20:26,887
It's just that nothing funny
ever happens in this town.
499
00:20:26,911 --> 00:20:28,755
Don't worry. You'll bounce back.
500
00:20:28,779 --> 00:20:32,960
Look, for a few billion dollars,
we can save one of the most
501
00:20:32,984 --> 00:20:34,595
ecologically-important
areas on Earth.
502
00:20:34,619 --> 00:20:35,729
If you've got
503
00:20:35,753 --> 00:20:37,898
a few billion dollars lying around,
go for it,
504
00:20:37,922 --> 00:20:39,266
because Congress won't.
505
00:20:39,290 --> 00:20:41,101
And at least Ashmont Petroleum
506
00:20:41,125 --> 00:20:43,303
would be bound by the treaty
to develop the oil field as...
507
00:20:43,327 --> 00:20:44,605
Come on.
508
00:20:44,629 --> 00:20:47,874
We're not seriously falling
back on the mighty RACTO?
509
00:20:47,898 --> 00:20:50,677
As non-invasively as
possible. Isn't that correct?
510
00:20:50,701 --> 00:20:52,045
Theoretically, sir.
511
00:20:52,069 --> 00:20:53,847
Which is more than
the Chinese can say.
512
00:20:53,871 --> 00:20:55,849
Look,
I'm all for saving the planet,
513
00:20:55,873 --> 00:20:58,885
but the bottom line is,
if we can't get our company in,
514
00:20:58,909 --> 00:21:00,768
we should at least keep
the Chinese one out.
515
00:21:00,792 --> 00:21:02,322
These are independent countries,
Russell.
516
00:21:02,346 --> 00:21:04,024
I don't have a lot
of cards to play.
517
00:21:04,048 --> 00:21:05,848
So find more cards.
518
00:21:06,483 --> 00:21:08,295
Thank you, Laura.
519
00:21:08,319 --> 00:21:10,297
Yes, ma'am.
520
00:21:10,321 --> 00:21:12,666
And technically, sir,
521
00:21:12,690 --> 00:21:15,324
I vomited... a little.
522
00:21:17,927 --> 00:21:19,763
Good to know.
523
00:21:21,065 --> 00:21:23,944
Look, Bess, this coup business
524
00:21:23,968 --> 00:21:26,446
is the worst body blow to the
presidency since Watergate.
525
00:21:26,470 --> 00:21:27,748
The public needs to know
526
00:21:27,772 --> 00:21:29,683
their government
hasn't slid off a cliff,
527
00:21:29,707 --> 00:21:32,886
which means you need
to go on Face the Nation.
528
00:21:32,910 --> 00:21:37,958
So... you up for the
damn show or not?
529
00:21:37,982 --> 00:21:41,416
Absolutely.
530
00:21:48,458 --> 00:21:50,737
Do you have any ideas
about what I might do,
531
00:21:50,761 --> 00:21:52,406
or are the taxpayers
just shelling out
532
00:21:52,430 --> 00:21:54,007
for another one of
Gordon's expensive walks?
533
00:21:54,031 --> 00:21:55,475
Look, saving a little piece
534
00:21:55,499 --> 00:21:57,878
of the Amazon probably
won't matter in the end anyway.
535
00:21:57,902 --> 00:22:00,714
Best to win Dalton some
goodwill with Chip Harding.
536
00:22:00,738 --> 00:22:03,016
How? By getting
Justice off his back
537
00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:05,185
so he can go back
to Ecuador and...
538
00:22:05,209 --> 00:22:07,087
bribe his way into
winning the bid?
539
00:22:07,111 --> 00:22:10,957
Yes. But just in case I'm ever deposed,
no.
540
00:22:10,981 --> 00:22:12,859
Yeah, I'm not doing that.
541
00:22:12,883 --> 00:22:15,529
Besides, you literally just
called him a pompous tool.
542
00:22:15,553 --> 00:22:18,332
He really is. Even other
pompous tool CEOs hate him.
543
00:22:18,356 --> 00:22:19,633
Like my friend, Owen Walton.
544
00:22:19,657 --> 00:22:20,801
Pompous tools run the world.
545
00:22:20,825 --> 00:22:22,703
You might as well
get on their good side.
546
00:22:22,727 --> 00:22:25,439
And hope that the tiny
sliver of the Amazon that's left
547
00:22:25,463 --> 00:22:27,441
is protected by RACTO?
548
00:22:27,465 --> 00:22:30,277
The "T," by the way,
stands for "toothless".
549
00:22:30,301 --> 00:22:31,745
There you go.
550
00:22:31,769 --> 00:22:34,948
How can the Chinese purport
to be a responsible actor
551
00:22:34,972 --> 00:22:38,118
in the Amazon when they're
not even a party to the treaty
552
00:22:38,142 --> 00:22:39,586
charged with its protection?
553
00:22:39,610 --> 00:22:41,288
I was being you there.
554
00:22:41,312 --> 00:22:44,958
So tie up China by officially
protesting their non-membership?
555
00:22:44,982 --> 00:22:47,994
RACTO may be toothless,
but Ecuador is a signatory.
556
00:22:48,018 --> 00:22:51,164
China would be
forced to respond.
557
00:22:51,188 --> 00:22:53,600
Whew. Talk about
poking the bear.
558
00:22:53,624 --> 00:22:56,203
Look, the White House wants
to keep them out of our backyard.
559
00:22:56,227 --> 00:22:58,672
It would take China at least
a year to unstick themselves
560
00:22:58,696 --> 00:23:00,006
from all the red tape.
During which time...
561
00:23:00,030 --> 00:23:02,109
The Selva isn't developed.
And Ashmont Petroleum
562
00:23:02,133 --> 00:23:04,211
gets its ducks in a row
and wins the contract.
563
00:23:04,235 --> 00:23:07,114
So both the Earth
and America win.
564
00:23:07,138 --> 00:23:09,504
Until America actually wins.
565
00:23:13,710 --> 00:23:15,889
Be advised,
we're losing the fight,
566
00:23:15,913 --> 00:23:18,181
but not by much. Don't
underestimate these terrorists.
567
00:23:20,618 --> 00:23:23,085
I can't find a break!
I don't have a shot!
568
00:23:25,889 --> 00:23:27,000
It's late.
569
00:23:27,024 --> 00:23:30,137
I didn't even hear you come in.
570
00:23:30,161 --> 00:23:33,073
Just winding down.
571
00:23:33,097 --> 00:23:34,875
By playing a video
game you've never
572
00:23:34,899 --> 00:23:37,611
shown any interest in
at 3:30 in the morning?
573
00:23:37,635 --> 00:23:39,846
Yup.
574
00:23:39,870 --> 00:23:42,349
Okay, babe, your Titan is ready.
575
00:23:42,373 --> 00:23:45,118
See? Here, press this button,
get your Titan.
576
00:23:45,142 --> 00:23:48,955
You play this game way
more than you cop to.
577
00:23:48,979 --> 00:23:51,324
Possibly true.
578
00:23:51,348 --> 00:23:53,326
Transferring control to pilot.
579
00:23:53,350 --> 00:23:56,818
Sorry I was such a bitch before.
580
00:23:57,687 --> 00:24:00,088
It's okay.
581
00:24:01,624 --> 00:24:03,637
How was Jason's first day?
582
00:24:03,661 --> 00:24:07,207
It was fine. Everything's fine.
583
00:24:07,231 --> 00:24:09,631
No, it isn't.
584
00:24:15,653 --> 00:24:17,665
Minister Chen
is waiting for you.
585
00:24:17,689 --> 00:24:20,703
Took a detour from
his White House visit
586
00:24:20,727 --> 00:24:22,806
to let us know how pissed he is
587
00:24:22,830 --> 00:24:25,375
about our little
Ecuador maneuver?
588
00:24:25,399 --> 00:24:26,543
I'm guessing.
589
00:24:26,567 --> 00:24:28,211
Well,
that would be a safe guess.
590
00:24:28,235 --> 00:24:30,647
Ma'am, pardon me, but...
591
00:24:30,671 --> 00:24:32,816
you look a little tired.
592
00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:34,751
Thanks, Nadine.
593
00:24:34,775 --> 00:24:37,554
No,
really. Are you sleeping all right?
594
00:24:37,578 --> 00:24:39,823
- Like a baby.
- Oh, congratulations again, Jay.
595
00:24:39,847 --> 00:24:42,325
She's gorgeous.
Here's the secretary.
596
00:24:42,349 --> 00:24:45,061
- Abby had the baby. A little girl.
- Oh, oh.
597
00:24:45,085 --> 00:24:46,830
My gosh.
598
00:24:46,854 --> 00:24:48,665
Well, hey, sweetheart.
599
00:24:48,689 --> 00:24:50,200
Hey, boss.
600
00:24:50,224 --> 00:24:52,702
Not you.
601
00:24:52,726 --> 00:24:54,170
What's her name?
602
00:24:54,194 --> 00:24:55,705
Wait for it.
603
00:24:55,729 --> 00:24:59,075
Chloe Elizabeth Whitman.
604
00:24:59,099 --> 00:25:00,910
- What a suck-up!
- Aw.
605
00:25:00,934 --> 00:25:02,979
It's her grandmother's name,
jerk.
606
00:25:03,003 --> 00:25:05,448
Hey, come on, honey.
607
00:25:05,472 --> 00:25:07,851
Say hi to the secretary,
sweetheart.
608
00:25:07,875 --> 00:25:10,920
Oh, she's... she's beautiful,
Jay.
609
00:25:10,944 --> 00:25:15,792
She's just... Ma'am.
610
00:25:15,816 --> 00:25:16,826
Minister Chen.
611
00:25:16,850 --> 00:25:18,461
Ma'am.
612
00:25:18,485 --> 00:25:21,197
Listen,
you bring her in really soon, okay?
613
00:25:21,221 --> 00:25:23,266
I want to meet her in person.
614
00:25:23,290 --> 00:25:25,435
Madam Secretary,
615
00:25:25,459 --> 00:25:27,303
this protest you've
lodged with RACTO
616
00:25:27,327 --> 00:25:29,205
is clearly a stalling tactic.
617
00:25:29,229 --> 00:25:30,573
You want to help.
618
00:25:30,597 --> 00:25:32,575
Ashmont Petroleum
win a bid they couldn't win
619
00:25:32,599 --> 00:25:33,943
honestly or fairly.
620
00:25:33,967 --> 00:25:36,546
You really want to
accuse Ashmont Petroleum
621
00:25:36,570 --> 00:25:38,681
of being the only
unscrupulous actor here?
622
00:25:38,705 --> 00:25:40,917
I would suggest you tread carefully,
Madam Secretary.
623
00:25:40,941 --> 00:25:44,354
So you're saying
that it is not common
624
00:25:44,378 --> 00:25:48,825
Chinese business practice
to get at-at the resources
625
00:25:48,849 --> 00:25:50,793
of developing nations
by bribing their elites?
626
00:25:50,817 --> 00:25:54,464
The West did just that for centuries,
including to China.
627
00:25:54,488 --> 00:25:56,666
Just because it's your turn
now doesn't make it right.
628
00:25:56,690 --> 00:25:58,134
While fascinating,
629
00:25:58,158 --> 00:26:00,703
this philosophical
discussion is hardly germane.
630
00:26:00,727 --> 00:26:03,706
I strongly urge you
to retract your protest.
631
00:26:03,730 --> 00:26:07,877
But there are so many other
fascinating subjects to discuss.
632
00:26:07,901 --> 00:26:13,049
Your currency devaluation,
unfair export subsidies,
633
00:26:13,073 --> 00:26:14,690
intellectual property
theft. I mean,
634
00:26:14,714 --> 00:26:16,152
- not to mention.
- Madam Secretary...
635
00:26:16,176 --> 00:26:18,488
your labor and environmental...
636
00:26:18,512 --> 00:26:20,890
Can we even call them laws?
637
00:26:20,914 --> 00:26:23,192
- More like suggestions.
- Madam Secretary,
638
00:26:23,216 --> 00:26:25,828
this inflammatory performance
will not help your cause
639
00:26:25,852 --> 00:26:27,931
in Ecuador or in any other area.
640
00:26:27,955 --> 00:26:30,333
Perhaps we should
talk at a later time.
641
00:26:30,357 --> 00:26:32,302
My-my apologies. Let's...
642
00:26:32,326 --> 00:26:35,271
Let's talk about something
less inflammatory.
643
00:26:35,295 --> 00:26:38,207
How are your children?
644
00:26:38,231 --> 00:26:39,809
They're fine.
645
00:26:39,833 --> 00:26:41,811
Good, good.
646
00:26:41,835 --> 00:26:43,446
Kids are a blessing.
647
00:26:43,470 --> 00:26:45,815
Indeed.
648
00:26:45,839 --> 00:26:47,517
Course,
when they look back at the Amazon
649
00:26:47,541 --> 00:26:50,253
and what we did to it,
they'll think we must have hated them.
650
00:26:50,277 --> 00:26:52,055
Again, ma'am, these remarks...
651
00:26:52,079 --> 00:26:53,256
No, no, it's interesting,
652
00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:55,825
because, you see,
if we chop it all down,
653
00:26:55,849 --> 00:26:59,329
we pretty much guarantee
that the planet overheats,
654
00:26:59,353 --> 00:27:02,665
and our kids will live in a
totally destabilized world.
655
00:27:02,689 --> 00:27:05,401
Well,
then at least they'll be able to go to war
656
00:27:05,425 --> 00:27:07,203
with each other
over fresh water.
657
00:27:07,227 --> 00:27:09,339
- That'll be kicky.
- Madam Secretary, are you quite all right?
658
00:27:09,363 --> 00:27:11,407
Are you not hearing me?!
659
00:27:11,431 --> 00:27:13,543
Your children
and mine will suffer
660
00:27:13,567 --> 00:27:15,311
because of choices
we make today.
661
00:27:15,335 --> 00:27:16,879
They will suffer,
662
00:27:16,903 --> 00:27:19,382
and there will be nothing
that we can do to help them!
663
00:27:19,406 --> 00:27:22,518
Is that what you
want?! Is that...
664
00:27:22,542 --> 00:27:24,909
Will you excuse me for a minute,
please?
665
00:27:29,249 --> 00:27:30,793
Will you call 911?
666
00:27:30,817 --> 00:27:34,854
I think I'm having
a heart attack.
667
00:27:35,756 --> 00:27:37,100
46-year-old female presenting
668
00:27:37,124 --> 00:27:38,635
with chest pain,
shortness of breath,
669
00:27:38,659 --> 00:27:40,003
sinus tach and hypertensive
670
00:27:40,027 --> 00:27:41,638
on two liters of O2,
aspirin and EKG
671
00:27:41,662 --> 00:27:44,073
- on the bus.
- Get her a X-ray,
672
00:27:44,097 --> 00:27:45,408
blood draw and
sublingual nitroglycerin,
673
00:27:45,432 --> 00:27:46,876
and take her up to Cardiac Care.
674
00:27:46,900 --> 00:27:48,911
- Elizabeth? Elizabeth, I'm here.
- We're going to take
675
00:27:48,935 --> 00:27:51,381
- good care of you, Madam Secretary.
- How is she?
676
00:27:51,405 --> 00:27:53,531
We're taking her upstairs
to run some tests now.
677
00:27:53,555 --> 00:27:56,319
It's okay, sweetheart,
I'm here. It's gonna be all right.
678
00:27:56,343 --> 00:28:00,156
Well,
the good news is that you're fine.
679
00:28:00,180 --> 00:28:01,858
You didn't have a heart attack.
680
00:28:01,882 --> 00:28:03,359
So what was it, then?
681
00:28:03,383 --> 00:28:06,195
Well, uh,
most likely a panic attack.
682
00:28:06,219 --> 00:28:07,830
You have got the job for it.
683
00:28:07,854 --> 00:28:09,198
Oh, God.
684
00:28:09,222 --> 00:28:11,834
Is it bad that I wish that I'd
actually had a heart attack?
685
00:28:11,858 --> 00:28:13,169
Now, going forward,
I'd recommend
686
00:28:13,193 --> 00:28:16,205
you go easy on the coffee,
take a few personal days.
687
00:28:16,229 --> 00:28:18,908
From what I see in the news,
you've been pretty busy.
688
00:28:18,932 --> 00:28:21,900
Thank you, Doctor.
689
00:28:28,207 --> 00:28:30,253
Navy SEALs get this, you know.
690
00:28:30,277 --> 00:28:32,822
You tougher than a Navy SEAL?
691
00:28:32,846 --> 00:28:36,915
Maybe, like,
a-a really runty one.
692
00:28:45,391 --> 00:28:48,337
I think maybe I got a
little bit more affected
693
00:28:48,361 --> 00:28:50,628
by Iran than I thought.
694
00:28:52,298 --> 00:28:56,579
But it was one incident,
and it passed and I'm fine.
695
00:28:56,603 --> 00:28:58,247
Look,
I know you think you can tough this out,
696
00:28:58,271 --> 00:28:59,849
but guess what, you can't.
697
00:28:59,873 --> 00:29:02,719
You have got to get help now,
before this really takes hold
698
00:29:02,743 --> 00:29:05,154
- and gets worse.
- I can't just drop everything
699
00:29:05,178 --> 00:29:07,757
- and take a spa day because I'm sad.
- Stop. You don't have to
700
00:29:07,781 --> 00:29:10,648
drop everything; you just
need to talk to someone.
701
00:29:15,287 --> 00:29:19,457
I know. I'm all messed up.
702
00:29:20,893 --> 00:29:25,074
One minute I'm fine,
and then the next I'm furious,
703
00:29:25,098 --> 00:29:27,477
then I'm numb.
704
00:29:27,501 --> 00:29:28,945
Well,
considering what you've been through,
705
00:29:28,969 --> 00:29:30,747
it's totally normal.
706
00:29:30,771 --> 00:29:32,248
Really?
707
00:29:32,272 --> 00:29:36,841
Because it feels...
totally crazy.
708
00:29:42,916 --> 00:29:45,661
The truth is,
709
00:29:45,685 --> 00:29:49,721
I'm just not ready to talk
about what happened yet.
710
00:29:51,290 --> 00:29:52,335
Okay.
711
00:29:52,359 --> 00:29:54,804
- But you heard the doctor, yeah?
- Yup.
712
00:29:54,828 --> 00:29:56,339
You need to take a few days off.
713
00:29:56,363 --> 00:29:58,441
I can't. It would
be a whole thing.
714
00:29:58,465 --> 00:29:59,709
So what?
715
00:29:59,733 --> 00:30:01,911
This is your health
we're talking about.
716
00:30:01,935 --> 00:30:04,336
I hear you. I do, I really do.
717
00:30:05,972 --> 00:30:08,239
But we're okay, right?
718
00:30:10,876 --> 00:30:13,089
Yeah.
719
00:30:13,113 --> 00:30:15,458
Sorry I've been
screaming at you a lot.
720
00:30:15,482 --> 00:30:17,049
No, it's totally good. It's fun.
721
00:30:19,085 --> 00:30:21,886
- I'm gonna go get Stevie.
- Okay.
722
00:30:29,695 --> 00:30:32,408
Hey.
723
00:30:32,432 --> 00:30:35,077
- Is she okay?
- She's fine. She's totally fine.
724
00:30:35,101 --> 00:30:37,346
- Just go in and talk to her.
- Okay.
725
00:30:37,370 --> 00:30:39,315
I'll be right there.
726
00:30:39,339 --> 00:30:41,951
Russell,
are those for me? You shouldn't have.
727
00:30:41,975 --> 00:30:43,853
- How is she?
- She's fine.
728
00:30:43,877 --> 00:30:45,655
Good. Then I'll just go in
729
00:30:45,679 --> 00:30:47,223
and convey the
president's best wishes.
730
00:30:47,247 --> 00:30:49,347
I said she's fine, Russell.
731
00:30:50,482 --> 00:30:52,884
Tell that to the Chinese.
732
00:30:53,519 --> 00:30:54,764
Thank you for coming.
733
00:30:54,788 --> 00:30:57,700
Hope you're right,
Henry. I really do.
734
00:30:57,724 --> 00:30:59,869
But if she's not fine,
735
00:30:59,893 --> 00:31:02,839
then you're not doing her
or your country any favors
736
00:31:02,863 --> 00:31:05,263
by keeping it from me.
737
00:31:12,037 --> 00:31:14,505
Give her these for me, will you?
738
00:31:23,259 --> 00:31:25,730
The doctors concluded the
secretary is in good health
739
00:31:25,754 --> 00:31:28,131
- and was simply exhausted.
- No, they didn't.
740
00:31:28,155 --> 00:31:30,033
Guys, she can't be exhausted.
741
00:31:30,057 --> 00:31:31,602
Ed Muskie was exhausted.
742
00:31:31,626 --> 00:31:34,705
"Exhausted" is Washington
code for complete mental freak-out,
743
00:31:34,729 --> 00:31:36,640
- you 12-year-olds.
- Please, say "exhausted" more.
744
00:31:36,664 --> 00:31:38,508
Hey, she flew to Iran,
745
00:31:38,532 --> 00:31:41,545
thwarted a coup,
then flew home and went right back to work.
746
00:31:41,569 --> 00:31:44,047
I think America would
understand if she's a little tired.
747
00:31:44,071 --> 00:31:47,885
Mike is, um... Right.
748
00:31:47,909 --> 00:31:49,319
Right.
749
00:31:49,343 --> 00:31:51,655
Listen,
the story the White House is peddling
750
00:31:51,679 --> 00:31:53,123
is "nothing to see here".
751
00:31:53,147 --> 00:31:55,459
Implying that the secretary
752
00:31:55,483 --> 00:31:58,515
had some sort of breakdown
is definitely something to see.
753
00:31:58,539 --> 00:32:00,464
I'd bet my second house
that Russell Jackson
754
00:32:00,488 --> 00:32:02,733
is at the hospital right now,
trying to find out
755
00:32:02,757 --> 00:32:04,635
if our beloved Bess has
gone around the bend.
756
00:32:04,659 --> 00:32:06,870
He actually is at the
hospital right now.
757
00:32:06,894 --> 00:32:08,372
I just heard from her detail.
758
00:32:08,396 --> 00:32:09,940
Look at that... I'm psychic.
759
00:32:09,964 --> 00:32:11,808
And if he decides she is,
760
00:32:11,832 --> 00:32:13,810
she'll be tossed overboard,
but quick.
761
00:32:13,834 --> 00:32:15,212
Fine, no exhaustion.
762
00:32:15,236 --> 00:32:16,914
We'll just stick to the facts:
she was feeling unwell,
763
00:32:16,938 --> 00:32:18,882
she went to the hospital,
doctors say she's fine.
764
00:32:18,906 --> 00:32:20,284
And answer any follow-ups with,
765
00:32:20,308 --> 00:32:22,219
"I don't speculate,
I'm not a doctor."
766
00:32:22,243 --> 00:32:24,288
See? Now you actually sound
like you know what you're doing.
767
00:32:24,312 --> 00:32:25,645
Oh, drop dead, old man.
768
00:32:27,248 --> 00:32:28,859
Do we really think
she's actually okay?
769
00:32:28,883 --> 00:32:31,094
Oh, of course she is.
770
00:32:31,118 --> 00:32:32,413
Based on what,
Blake? The fact that
771
00:32:32,437 --> 00:32:34,932
she bawled out the foreign
minister of our biggest creditor?
772
00:32:34,956 --> 00:32:38,302
She's okay until
she tells us she isn't.
773
00:32:38,326 --> 00:32:39,736
Got it?
774
00:32:39,760 --> 00:32:42,306
Obviously, we need to push
back Face the Nation for at least
775
00:32:42,330 --> 00:32:44,775
a couple of days. Meanwhile,
776
00:32:44,799 --> 00:32:47,544
I've got to try to put out
the fire with Minister Chen.
777
00:32:47,568 --> 00:32:50,747
So let's get back to work.
778
00:32:50,771 --> 00:32:52,215
That's M. Sec now.
779
00:32:52,239 --> 00:32:53,350
I know what you're all thinking:
780
00:32:53,374 --> 00:32:55,919
"Why is she calling
him and not me?"
781
00:32:55,943 --> 00:32:59,423
Well, shame on you,
petty, petty people.
782
00:32:59,447 --> 00:33:00,891
Hello.
783
00:33:00,915 --> 00:33:04,261
I'm so relieved the secretary
is feeling more like herself.
784
00:33:04,285 --> 00:33:07,064
Please convey my warm regards.
785
00:33:07,088 --> 00:33:09,800
I certainly will,
and thank you again for your understanding
786
00:33:09,824 --> 00:33:11,168
and for stopping by.
787
00:33:11,192 --> 00:33:13,737
Think nothing of it.
788
00:33:13,761 --> 00:33:15,973
But if the secretary
continues to push forward
789
00:33:15,997 --> 00:33:17,307
with this attempt to stymie
790
00:33:17,331 --> 00:33:20,077
our rightful and lawful
investment in Ecuador...
791
00:33:20,101 --> 00:33:23,146
that,
China might not be so quick to forgive.
792
00:33:23,170 --> 00:33:25,949
Well, I would not presume
to speak for the secretary
793
00:33:25,973 --> 00:33:27,718
on such a serious issue,
794
00:33:27,742 --> 00:33:30,420
but I will certainly
convey your concern.
795
00:33:30,444 --> 00:33:31,588
See that you do.
796
00:33:31,612 --> 00:33:33,390
Because if the
secretary's words were not
797
00:33:33,414 --> 00:33:35,892
a moment of unreason
but rather indicative
798
00:33:35,916 --> 00:33:37,661
of an official attitude
toward China...
799
00:33:37,685 --> 00:33:40,197
- I assure you they were not.
- Then China, in turn,
800
00:33:40,221 --> 00:33:44,201
might begin to feel that
the United States' debt
801
00:33:44,225 --> 00:33:48,160
is a less than reliable
investment for our surplus.
802
00:33:49,062 --> 00:33:50,574
Yes, sir.
803
00:33:50,598 --> 00:33:52,042
Good day, Ms. Tolliver.
804
00:33:52,066 --> 00:33:53,810
Good day, sir.
805
00:33:53,834 --> 00:33:55,912
- Oy.
- Yeah.
806
00:33:55,936 --> 00:33:57,381
Wait till you see how inspired
807
00:33:57,405 --> 00:33:59,082
the lowly grunts are by
their unsinkable leader.
808
00:33:59,106 --> 00:34:01,885
Bounces back from a
heart attack the same day.
809
00:34:01,909 --> 00:34:03,761
Imaginary heart attack. Huzzah,
huzzah.
810
00:34:03,785 --> 00:34:05,356
It's better than a real one,
believe you me.
811
00:34:05,380 --> 00:34:08,353
- So are you up for this meeting with Owen?
- Yes, absolutely.
812
00:34:08,377 --> 00:34:10,389
- Glad to have you back.
- Because even though he was in town,
813
00:34:10,413 --> 00:34:11,464
- it took a lot of wrangling.
- Thanks, Erin.
814
00:34:11,488 --> 00:34:12,178
To get him into the room under
815
00:34:12,202 --> 00:34:13,797
- such short notice.
- I'm not going to embarrass you.
816
00:34:13,821 --> 00:34:15,597
- Don't worry about it.
- Good, because if it were up to me,
817
00:34:15,621 --> 00:34:17,928
the only person you'd be in
a room with is a psychiatrist.
818
00:34:17,952 --> 00:34:20,130
Well,
thanks for the vote of confidence.
819
00:34:20,154 --> 00:34:22,633
I'm withholding that until we
see if your plan actually works.
820
00:34:22,657 --> 00:34:24,658
So, you set?
821
00:34:31,366 --> 00:34:32,499
Abdol!
822
00:34:33,568 --> 00:34:35,401
You good?
823
00:34:36,136 --> 00:34:37,781
- What?
- Are... Are you good to go?
824
00:34:37,805 --> 00:34:38,949
Yes.
825
00:34:38,973 --> 00:34:40,751
Yeah, absolutely. I just...
826
00:34:40,775 --> 00:34:43,220
I'm gonna... Um... One thing...
827
00:34:43,244 --> 00:34:46,912
No, no,
I got it. I got it. I'm... Right back.
828
00:34:52,653 --> 00:34:54,398
Henry?
829
00:34:54,422 --> 00:34:56,233
Yeah.
830
00:34:56,257 --> 00:34:58,157
So...
831
00:34:59,693 --> 00:35:02,172
turns out, you were right.
832
00:35:02,196 --> 00:35:04,041
Maybe, um,
833
00:35:04,065 --> 00:35:07,867
coming back today wasn't
such a hot idea after all.
834
00:35:09,770 --> 00:35:13,183
Owen,
it's been too long. St. Moritz, right?
835
00:35:13,207 --> 00:35:15,419
- How the hell are you?
- Uh, well, a little confused.
836
00:35:15,443 --> 00:35:17,554
- I thought I was meeting the secretary.
- We were walking in the door,
837
00:35:17,578 --> 00:35:20,524
she got a call from the White
House. Big mess in Russia.
838
00:35:20,548 --> 00:35:24,495
Very big,
very messy. But you didn't hear it from us.
839
00:35:24,519 --> 00:35:27,598
Nadine Tolliver,
Secretary McCord's chief of staff.
840
00:35:27,622 --> 00:35:29,667
Thank you so much for coming in.
841
00:35:29,691 --> 00:35:31,268
And this is Laura...
something something.
842
00:35:31,292 --> 00:35:33,337
Uh, Vargas. Pleased to meet you.
843
00:35:33,361 --> 00:35:35,439
Uh, look,
I-I don't want to be rude or whatever,
844
00:35:35,463 --> 00:35:36,907
but I've got a gala
I'm supposed to
845
00:35:36,931 --> 00:35:39,243
- go to in a little while...
- Oh, Mr. Walton, please.
846
00:35:39,267 --> 00:35:42,880
The secretary had hoped to
discuss an opportunity with you.
847
00:35:42,904 --> 00:35:46,350
The chance for your
charitable foundation to save
848
00:35:46,374 --> 00:35:52,156
over 4,000 square miles of
pristine Amazonian rainforest.
849
00:35:52,180 --> 00:35:54,858
While th-that's an
important number unto itself,
850
00:35:54,882 --> 00:35:56,927
the positive impact on
the health of the planet
851
00:35:56,951 --> 00:35:59,430
would be exponentially larger.
852
00:35:59,454 --> 00:36:02,032
Uh, look, uh,
that... This is super cool
853
00:36:02,056 --> 00:36:03,500
and I'm all about
the environment.
854
00:36:03,524 --> 00:36:05,102
I mean, my foundation
855
00:36:05,126 --> 00:36:07,905
is already doing this
whole thing with reefs.
856
00:36:07,929 --> 00:36:10,641
Or maybe sharks. But either way,
it's amazing.
857
00:36:10,665 --> 00:36:12,076
You should set up
a meeting with them.
858
00:36:12,100 --> 00:36:15,512
Let me put all this another way,
Owen.
859
00:36:15,536 --> 00:36:18,248
How would you like
to win a Nobel Prize
860
00:36:18,272 --> 00:36:21,407
for sticking it to Chip Harding?
861
00:36:22,743 --> 00:36:25,044
Chip wants to drill down there?
862
00:36:26,179 --> 00:36:27,713
I'm listening.
863
00:36:35,689 --> 00:36:38,369
- Russell.
- Evening, Henry.
864
00:36:38,393 --> 00:36:42,394
Look... I come in peace.
865
00:36:45,365 --> 00:36:47,778
Good fix you had
on the Ecuador thing.
866
00:36:47,802 --> 00:36:49,847
Sounds like your team handled it well,
too.
867
00:36:49,871 --> 00:36:51,348
I shouldn't have doubted you.
868
00:36:51,372 --> 00:36:52,883
Thanks.
869
00:36:52,907 --> 00:36:54,184
I mean, China's not happy.
870
00:36:54,208 --> 00:36:57,054
Yeah, well, they lost.
871
00:36:57,078 --> 00:36:59,690
And because I screamed
at Minister Chen.
872
00:36:59,714 --> 00:37:02,481
Nadine calmed him down.
873
00:37:03,250 --> 00:37:05,295
And the vice-president's
taking him bowling
874
00:37:05,319 --> 00:37:07,653
or some damn thing.
875
00:37:12,192 --> 00:37:14,371
Summer after junior
year of high school,
876
00:37:14,395 --> 00:37:16,440
my big brother
Kenny took me fishing
877
00:37:16,464 --> 00:37:19,765
for getting straight A's.
878
00:37:20,901 --> 00:37:23,981
My dad took off when we were kids,
so...
879
00:37:24,005 --> 00:37:28,352
Anyway,
we were driving back, at night,
880
00:37:28,376 --> 00:37:33,524
and this drunk hunter
T-boned us with his truck.
881
00:37:33,548 --> 00:37:36,360
I was a little banged up.
882
00:37:36,384 --> 00:37:39,184
But Kenny died at the scene.
883
00:37:43,089 --> 00:37:46,570
Makes it back from
Vietnam in one piece,
884
00:37:46,594 --> 00:37:48,772
he dies right there on
the side of the highway
885
00:37:48,796 --> 00:37:50,974
with the paramedics
working on him
886
00:37:50,998 --> 00:37:55,534
and the looky-loos
slowing down and gawk.
887
00:37:59,206 --> 00:38:01,819
Anyway, I'm mostly good now.
888
00:38:01,843 --> 00:38:04,276
I won't bore you
with my triggers.
889
00:38:06,146 --> 00:38:09,081
Suffice to say I haven't
been fishing in a while.
890
00:38:12,986 --> 00:38:16,855
Here's someone who
can keep her mouth shut.
891
00:38:19,493 --> 00:38:21,894
Welcome to the club.
892
00:38:23,563 --> 00:38:26,477
Thanks, Russell.
893
00:38:26,501 --> 00:38:28,901
Take care of yourself, Bess.
894
00:38:40,850 --> 00:38:42,729
I wonder how she's doing.
895
00:38:42,753 --> 00:38:45,632
Well,
her last text said she was resting...
896
00:38:45,656 --> 00:38:47,167
- and bored.
- Oh.
897
00:38:47,191 --> 00:38:50,203
So, Laura, way to hit it out
of the park on your first at bat.
898
00:38:50,227 --> 00:38:52,372
- Welcome to the bigs.
- Yeah.
899
00:38:52,396 --> 00:38:53,640
Oh, uh, he's terrible at sports,
900
00:38:53,664 --> 00:38:55,141
- by the way.
- Don't do... Don't say...
901
00:38:55,165 --> 00:38:57,039
Most of my friends from
grad school are still writing
902
00:38:57,063 --> 00:38:58,140
their dissertations.
903
00:38:58,164 --> 00:39:00,509
- We actually did something today.
- To that rarest
904
00:39:00,533 --> 00:39:03,312
of Washington feats:
actually doing something.
905
00:39:03,336 --> 00:39:05,581
- Hear, hear.
- Yes. - Salud.
906
00:39:05,605 --> 00:39:07,416
I just hope
907
00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:10,753
the media noise about the
hospital visit will die down.
908
00:39:10,777 --> 00:39:12,321
Honestly, I don't think it will
909
00:39:12,345 --> 00:39:13,622
until she does Face the Nation.
910
00:39:13,646 --> 00:39:16,213
If she does Face the Nation.
911
00:39:17,049 --> 00:39:18,850
That's a double kill.
912
00:39:24,957 --> 00:39:27,424
Do you want to tell me about it?
913
00:39:31,797 --> 00:39:33,809
Fred Cole and the
guys in my detail
914
00:39:33,833 --> 00:39:36,178
died because I went to Iran.
915
00:39:36,202 --> 00:39:39,348
They died saving me.
916
00:39:39,372 --> 00:39:42,084
They died saving their
country from a war.
917
00:39:42,108 --> 00:39:43,852
They died doing their duty.
918
00:39:43,876 --> 00:39:48,157
- They died...
- Because of me. - Babe,
919
00:39:48,181 --> 00:39:52,161
you did not force Fred Cole
to run toward the gunfire.
920
00:39:52,185 --> 00:39:53,796
That was his choice.
921
00:39:53,820 --> 00:39:55,986
And you know he
would do it again.
922
00:39:57,623 --> 00:39:59,902
And then there's Abdol.
923
00:39:59,926 --> 00:40:02,304
Javani's son, right?
924
00:40:02,328 --> 00:40:04,728
What about him?
925
00:40:06,598 --> 00:40:08,966
He was there.
926
00:40:10,869 --> 00:40:14,383
He was there in the room, too.
927
00:40:14,407 --> 00:40:16,452
I didn't tell you...
928
00:40:16,476 --> 00:40:19,755
I didn't tell anyone...
929
00:40:19,779 --> 00:40:23,559
'cause I couldn't get to him.
930
00:40:23,583 --> 00:40:27,151
I wanted so badly
to protect that boy.
931
00:40:28,353 --> 00:40:30,733
Or at least keep him
from seeing his father
932
00:40:30,757 --> 00:40:34,436
murdered in his own living room.
933
00:40:34,460 --> 00:40:36,827
But I couldn't.
934
00:40:39,831 --> 00:40:42,199
Fred was on top of me.
935
00:40:44,069 --> 00:40:47,972
And I couldn't... get to him.
936
00:40:50,842 --> 00:40:55,079
How in the world is that
boy supposed to go on?
937
00:40:59,484 --> 00:41:04,655
We do all these horrible
things to each other.
938
00:41:06,591 --> 00:41:12,463
And there are always,
always kids in the middle.
939
00:41:18,036 --> 00:41:24,308
Henry,
what have I done to our sweet children?
940
00:41:52,204 --> 00:41:55,384
Madam Secretary,
you made an unprecedented trip
941
00:41:55,408 --> 00:41:59,354
to Iran to save the nuclear
deal between the Iranians
942
00:41:59,378 --> 00:42:01,323
and the United States.
943
00:42:01,347 --> 00:42:02,391
Yes, I did.
944
00:42:02,415 --> 00:42:04,693
And while you were there,
of course,
945
00:42:04,717 --> 00:42:09,465
a coup that was eventually,
uh, foiled, uh, began.
946
00:42:09,489 --> 00:42:10,966
You were in the room
947
00:42:10,990 --> 00:42:13,635
when the foreign
minister Javani was killed.
948
00:42:13,659 --> 00:42:14,803
That's right.
949
00:42:14,827 --> 00:42:18,574
Who else was there,
and-and what happened?
950
00:42:18,598 --> 00:42:22,511
We were at Minister Javani's
house when it happened.
951
00:42:22,535 --> 00:42:25,080
Several members
of my security detail
952
00:42:25,104 --> 00:42:27,783
were wounded or killed.
953
00:42:27,807 --> 00:42:30,452
Their courage was awe-inspiring,
954
00:42:30,476 --> 00:42:34,389
and I deeply mourn their loss,
as does the entire country.
955
00:42:34,413 --> 00:42:38,494
Minister Javani's son
witnessed his father's death.
956
00:42:38,518 --> 00:42:41,530
As a mother,
I would have given anything
957
00:42:41,554 --> 00:42:44,533
to protect that child.
958
00:42:44,557 --> 00:42:48,170
Which is why I am determined
as ever to see through
959
00:42:48,194 --> 00:42:51,006
the nuclear agreement that
his father gave his life for.
960
00:42:51,030 --> 00:42:54,109
Because I think
that's our greatest
961
00:42:54,133 --> 00:42:56,345
responsibility in this life:
962
00:42:56,369 --> 00:42:58,313
to leave a safer
963
00:42:58,337 --> 00:43:01,517
and more peaceful
world for our children.
964
00:43:01,541 --> 00:43:03,552
Madam Secretary, thank you.
965
00:43:03,576 --> 00:43:06,043
Thank you, Bob.
966
00:43:25,272 --> 00:43:33,181
