1
00:00:24,558 --> 00:00:27,628
BLAKE (over speaker): For the 9:30
a.m. National Security Council meeting,

2
00:00:27,661 --> 00:00:29,339
you'll need the memo
on cyber security... Yeah.

3
00:00:29,363 --> 00:00:30,564
Which you took home.

4
00:00:30,598 --> 00:00:33,734
Worst bedtime reading ever.

5
00:00:33,767 --> 00:00:35,236
I can get you another copy.

6
00:00:35,269 --> 00:00:36,470
Ha! No need.

7
00:00:36,504 --> 00:00:39,707
Okay, so staff briefing

8
00:00:39,740 --> 00:00:41,809
after NSC, then... what?

9
00:00:41,842 --> 00:00:43,277
At 2:15, there's a reception

10
00:00:43,311 --> 00:00:46,514
for the departing
Finnish ambassador.

11
00:00:46,547 --> 00:00:47,857
I hope he brings
that salty licorice.

12
00:00:47,881 --> 00:00:49,117
God, I love that stuff.

13
00:00:49,150 --> 00:00:50,551
We'll look into that for you.

14
00:00:50,584 --> 00:00:52,186
Oh! Hey.

15
00:00:52,220 --> 00:00:53,630
Don't let me forget
about Henry's interview

16
00:00:53,654 --> 00:00:55,189
on Book TV on C-SPAN tomorrow,
okay?

17
00:00:55,223 --> 00:00:58,326
It hath been ordained.

18
00:00:58,359 --> 00:01:00,361
That's a small
biblical joke for Henry.

19
00:01:02,330 --> 00:01:03,564
Okay, I'm hanging up now.

20
00:01:03,597 --> 00:01:06,367
Thanks, babe. You know,
you guys should check it out, too.

21
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:09,237
A Z-SPAN interview on
Dad's book about St. Francis

22
00:01:09,270 --> 00:01:10,547
that I already hear
too much about?

23
00:01:10,571 --> 00:01:12,316
Well,
if you actually read your father's work

24
00:01:12,340 --> 00:01:13,641
instead of trashing it,

25
00:01:13,674 --> 00:01:15,609
you'd know how totally
un-Franciscan that was.

26
00:01:15,643 --> 00:01:17,145
HENRY: Oh, word.

27
00:01:17,178 --> 00:01:18,612
I humbly and meekly apologize.

28
00:01:18,646 --> 00:01:20,681
JASON: He was also
sort of a revolutionary.

29
00:01:20,714 --> 00:01:22,259
Completely rejected any
form of material wealth.

30
00:01:22,283 --> 00:01:23,584
STEVIE: He also led

31
00:01:23,617 --> 00:01:24,794
the first environmental
movement.

32
00:01:24,818 --> 00:01:26,320
Wait, you guys read it?

33
00:01:26,354 --> 00:01:27,564
I'll make you an autographed copy,
Noodle.

34
00:01:27,588 --> 00:01:28,722
You're gonna love it.

35
00:01:28,756 --> 00:01:30,324
Ooh. Burn.

36
00:01:30,358 --> 00:01:35,263
Wow, that is one manly
breakfast you got there, slugger.

37
00:01:35,296 --> 00:01:36,373
Jason is trying to
bulk up for football.

38
00:01:36,397 --> 00:01:37,765
Isn't it cute?

39
00:01:37,798 --> 00:01:39,509
Okay,
"cute" isn't exactly what I'm going for.

40
00:01:39,533 --> 00:01:41,202
And slugger's baseball, Mom.

41
00:01:41,235 --> 00:01:42,336
Ooh. Okay.

42
00:01:42,370 --> 00:01:43,737
(phone buzzing)

43
00:01:43,771 --> 00:01:45,773
Stevie, why are you getting

44
00:01:45,806 --> 00:01:47,208
a call from the White House?

45
00:01:48,309 --> 00:01:49,543
Oh.

46
00:01:49,577 --> 00:01:51,812
It's Harrison.

47
00:01:51,845 --> 00:01:53,247
He's trying to
ditch my caller ID.

48
00:01:53,281 --> 00:01:54,482
I'm not engaging.

49
00:01:54,515 --> 00:01:56,184
Oh.

50
00:01:56,217 --> 00:01:57,318
It's fine.

51
00:01:57,351 --> 00:01:59,320
You're allowed to
be relieved. Good.

52
00:01:59,353 --> 00:02:00,654
'Cause... well, we're just happy

53
00:02:00,688 --> 00:02:01,898
that you're making
some good choices.

54
00:02:01,922 --> 00:02:03,391
I know.

55
00:02:03,424 --> 00:02:05,326
I totally deserve some bacon,
right?

56
00:02:05,359 --> 00:02:06,727
I thought you were vegan.

57
00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:08,762
Bacon is my downfall.

58
00:02:08,796 --> 00:02:10,307
Hey,
could you save some for the linebacker?

59
00:02:10,331 --> 00:02:11,675
All right,
I'm off to the White House

60
00:02:11,699 --> 00:02:13,567
to eat more crow about Russia.

61
00:02:13,601 --> 00:02:15,203
I don't get how
that's your fault.

62
00:02:15,236 --> 00:02:16,346
You happened to be in Russia

63
00:02:16,370 --> 00:02:17,414
when Ostrov's widow
made a power play.

64
00:02:17,438 --> 00:02:19,873
Exactly. I was there.

65
00:02:19,907 --> 00:02:21,485
They're just mad because
you made a better president.

66
00:02:21,509 --> 00:02:23,544
Acting president.

67
00:02:23,577 --> 00:02:25,546
MATT: No way, man.

68
00:02:25,579 --> 00:02:28,849
The best ramen is Noodle
Noodle Dumpling on H Street.

69
00:02:28,882 --> 00:02:30,351
No, hands down.

70
00:02:30,384 --> 00:02:31,319
Yes.

71
00:02:31,352 --> 00:02:33,254
Oh, sorry,
it jammed last time. I see that.

72
00:02:33,287 --> 00:02:34,798
Well, if you want,
I could take a look at it.

73
00:02:34,822 --> 00:02:36,257
Don't have time. Okay.

74
00:02:36,290 --> 00:02:37,525
I'm not talking to you.

75
00:02:37,558 --> 00:02:39,427
Hey, buddy, can I call you back?

76
00:02:39,460 --> 00:02:41,695
Okay.

77
00:02:41,729 --> 00:02:42,696
Sorry about the printer.

78
00:02:42,730 --> 00:02:44,298
It's fine.

79
00:02:44,332 --> 00:02:45,799
Are you sure?

80
00:02:45,833 --> 00:02:48,302
Okay, I appreciate that
you're willing to share an office

81
00:02:48,336 --> 00:02:49,503
in spite of everything,

82
00:02:49,537 --> 00:02:51,672
but I don't think
this is working.

83
00:02:51,705 --> 00:02:53,641
What? Look,
you can totally have the printer.

84
00:02:53,674 --> 00:02:56,277
And I don't have to be
so loud on the phone.

85
00:02:56,310 --> 00:02:57,354
I just think that we'd both

86
00:02:57,378 --> 00:02:58,755
be better at our jobs if
we did them separately,

87
00:02:58,779 --> 00:03:00,714
now that we're broken up.

88
00:03:00,748 --> 00:03:01,882
Hang on for a sec.

89
00:03:01,915 --> 00:03:02,950
Can we talk about this?

90
00:03:02,983 --> 00:03:03,993
What is there to talk about?

91
00:03:04,017 --> 00:03:06,254
It's over. We need to move on.

92
00:03:06,287 --> 00:03:07,621
Have you seen this?

93
00:03:07,655 --> 00:03:09,923
MATT: Bold graphic.
It's Inside Lowdown.

94
00:03:09,957 --> 00:03:12,226
Their below the
fold is cops twerking.

95
00:03:12,260 --> 00:03:14,828
It's bad enough we had
to endure Maria Ostrov

96
00:03:14,862 --> 00:03:16,606
accusing the U.S. of
conspiring against Russia,

97
00:03:16,630 --> 00:03:19,733
but this makes it look like

98
00:03:19,767 --> 00:03:22,770
some Real Housewives episode.

99
00:03:22,803 --> 00:03:24,372
DAISY: I'll push back.

100
00:03:24,405 --> 00:03:26,374
But it's hard to take a
stand against a paper

101
00:03:26,407 --> 00:03:27,308
that equates a
diplomatic crisis with...

102
00:03:27,341 --> 00:03:29,843
Cops twerking? MATT: Oh,
I was gonna say

103
00:03:29,877 --> 00:03:31,345
naked lady mud wrestling.

104
00:03:31,379 --> 00:03:32,613
That sounds fun.

105
00:03:32,646 --> 00:03:34,648
What'd I miss?

106
00:03:38,352 --> 00:03:40,988
"Catfight"? Really?

107
00:03:41,021 --> 00:03:42,923
NADINE: We'll push back on that,
ma'am.

108
00:03:42,956 --> 00:03:45,326
Why don't we move
into the items of the day?

109
00:03:45,359 --> 00:03:47,361
At least I don't look chinny.

110
00:03:48,962 --> 00:03:50,522
The Polar Research
Institute of China...

111
00:03:51,432 --> 00:03:53,467
Oh,
PRIC. Began construction on a new

112
00:03:53,501 --> 00:03:56,837
weather station in the Svalbard
archipelago in the Arctic.

113
00:03:56,870 --> 00:03:59,473
As long as the station
is researching the effects

114
00:03:59,507 --> 00:04:02,843
of climate change,
like it claims, it doesn't warrant

115
00:04:02,876 --> 00:04:04,845
further scrutiny by
the Arctic Council.

116
00:04:04,878 --> 00:04:07,315
But if they try and
claim drilling rights

117
00:04:07,348 --> 00:04:09,917
or lay claim to any of the
new waters opening up

118
00:04:09,950 --> 00:04:12,019
due to the melting
of the polar ice cap...

119
00:04:12,052 --> 00:04:14,722
And we'll be mad because they
beat us to the punch? Basically.

120
00:04:14,755 --> 00:04:17,425
DAISY: We need to send a
cable to the Foreign Ministry

121
00:04:17,458 --> 00:04:18,868
cautioning the Chinese Arctic
and Antarctic Administration.

122
00:04:18,892 --> 00:04:20,027
ELIZABETH: Yeah, that's fine.

123
00:04:20,060 --> 00:04:21,395
Let's draft it.

124
00:04:21,429 --> 00:04:23,331
So when did you lose
the lumberjack look?

125
00:04:23,364 --> 00:04:25,566
Was that new
baby or neo hipster?

126
00:04:25,599 --> 00:04:27,635
Little of both. Welcome back.

127
00:04:27,668 --> 00:04:31,439
In some positive news,
I just got inside word from the Hill.

128
00:04:31,472 --> 00:04:33,441
Looks like our
disaster relief bill

129
00:04:33,474 --> 00:04:35,376
for Nepal is going
to pass tomorrow.

130
00:04:35,409 --> 00:04:36,344
Awesome! DAISY: Amazing.

131
00:04:36,377 --> 00:04:38,379
Good work. Hey, uh,

132
00:04:38,412 --> 00:04:40,614
who caved? Senator Fenworth
seems to have been persuaded.

133
00:04:40,648 --> 00:04:42,049
DAISY: We don't persuade.

134
00:04:42,082 --> 00:04:43,684
We inform. ELIZABETH:
Fenworth. Wasn't he

135
00:04:43,717 --> 00:04:46,320
the Tin Man that voted against
subsidized school lunches?

136
00:04:46,354 --> 00:04:47,621
Apparently, he was quite moved

137
00:04:47,655 --> 00:04:50,391
by his visitation with the
Royal Kumari of Nepal.

138
00:04:50,424 --> 00:04:52,369
DAISY: So, seeing all the
devastated villages didn't do it,

139
00:04:52,393 --> 00:04:53,594
but five minutes

140
00:04:53,627 --> 00:04:55,104
with a 12-year-old
goddess convinced him?

141
00:04:55,128 --> 00:04:57,598
A 12-year-old goddess
who does not speak.

142
00:04:57,631 --> 00:04:59,032
MATT: Oh. The Kumari

143
00:04:59,066 --> 00:05:02,503
is mute only when she's
in full ceremonial dress

144
00:05:02,536 --> 00:05:05,406
and she's inhabited
by the goddess Taleju.

145
00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:08,008
Nobody else reads the briefs?

146
00:05:08,041 --> 00:05:09,610
BLAKE: Ma'am,
you should probably

147
00:05:09,643 --> 00:05:10,411
leave for the NSC meeting.

148
00:05:10,444 --> 00:05:12,546
Right. They keep
starting without me.

149
00:05:12,580 --> 00:05:14,114
Oh,
you've got a press meet-and-greet

150
00:05:14,147 --> 00:05:15,916
with the Kumari after
the vote tomorrow.

151
00:05:15,949 --> 00:05:18,118
I'll be sure to thank her
for charming Congress

152
00:05:18,151 --> 00:05:22,356
out of its compassion fatigue,
all without saying a word.

153
00:05:22,390 --> 00:05:24,525
I'm sure there's a
few cabinet members

154
00:05:24,558 --> 00:05:27,461
who believe I could learn a
thing or two from her. Yeah.

155
00:05:27,495 --> 00:05:29,697
CRAIG: So, really,

156
00:05:29,730 --> 00:05:32,366
cyber security is just
the tip of the iceberg.

157
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:34,735
JACKSON: Pretty big tip,
let's hope.

158
00:05:34,768 --> 00:05:37,638
DALTON: Let's
catch Elizabeth up.

159
00:05:37,671 --> 00:05:39,707
Craig has come up with a new

160
00:05:39,740 --> 00:05:40,874
defense initiative.

161
00:05:40,908 --> 00:05:42,676
Go ahead and lay
it out. Of course.

162
00:05:42,710 --> 00:05:44,878
Now,
when my grandfather went to the Philippines

163
00:05:44,912 --> 00:05:46,747
at the beginning
of World War II,

164
00:05:46,780 --> 00:05:51,485
he was armed with a rifle
that was designed in 1904.

165
00:05:51,519 --> 00:05:53,421
The next years
saw a transformation

166
00:05:53,454 --> 00:05:57,725
of U.S. Defense that changed
the shape of geopolitics forever.

167
00:05:57,758 --> 00:06:00,093
And we pretty much
haven't touched it since then.

168
00:06:00,127 --> 00:06:01,762
So while we're still
spending billions

169
00:06:01,795 --> 00:06:04,164
on aircraft carriers
and submarines,

170
00:06:04,197 --> 00:06:06,600
we're getting cut off at the
knees by a backroom criminal

171
00:06:06,634 --> 00:06:08,068
with some malware and a laptop.

172
00:06:08,101 --> 00:06:09,278
Or a weather station
in the Antarctic.

173
00:06:09,302 --> 00:06:12,406
That research station was
approved by the Arctic Council.

174
00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:14,475
How are we seeing it
as an act of aggression?

175
00:06:14,508 --> 00:06:15,676
Exactly.

176
00:06:15,709 --> 00:06:17,645
It's under the radar.

177
00:06:17,678 --> 00:06:19,580
It's cheap.

178
00:06:19,613 --> 00:06:22,115
And for the cost of one weather station,
China gets

179
00:06:22,149 --> 00:06:23,927
complete access to our
satellite communications,

180
00:06:23,951 --> 00:06:25,052
and quite possibly

181
00:06:25,085 --> 00:06:28,656
shares them with our
adversaries on the Arctic Council,

182
00:06:28,689 --> 00:06:30,090
who, as you pointed out,

183
00:06:30,123 --> 00:06:32,526
didn't exactly protest
this thing in the first place.

184
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:35,896
So, we're thinking China and
Russia are working together?

185
00:06:35,929 --> 00:06:38,699
To undermine our
global security interests?

186
00:06:38,732 --> 00:06:40,133
Does that seem so
impossible to you?

187
00:06:40,167 --> 00:06:42,536
Look, I get shifting our focus

188
00:06:42,570 --> 00:06:45,506
to cyber offense after what
happened with Air Force One,

189
00:06:45,539 --> 00:06:49,009
but battlefield robotics,
laser weapons systems?

190
00:06:49,042 --> 00:06:51,211
What about the impact
that this is going to have

191
00:06:51,244 --> 00:06:52,179
on diplomatic relations?

192
00:06:52,212 --> 00:06:55,849
Well, to that, I would say,
Madam Secretary...

193
00:06:55,883 --> 00:06:58,452
you've had your turn.

194
00:06:58,486 --> 00:07:01,121
And you see where that led us.

195
00:07:01,154 --> 00:07:03,624
This is a done deal, Bess.

196
00:07:03,657 --> 00:07:05,693
Figure out a way
to make it work.

197
00:07:05,726 --> 00:07:08,228
CRAIG: Looking at our

198
00:07:08,261 --> 00:07:10,097
budgetary goals, this

199
00:07:10,130 --> 00:07:12,633
is a three-phase process.

200
00:07:12,666 --> 00:07:13,601
First and foremost...

201
00:07:13,634 --> 00:07:16,670
Military transformation?

202
00:07:17,838 --> 00:07:20,474
So,
that's our new foreign policy?

203
00:07:20,508 --> 00:07:22,776
It's that damn Air
Force One attack.

204
00:07:22,810 --> 00:07:27,147
I realize this is a shift in focus,
but it's long overdue.

205
00:07:27,180 --> 00:07:29,950
I mean, NASA got a total overhaul,
what, 20 years ago?

206
00:07:29,983 --> 00:07:32,052
Meanwhile,
Defense is lumbering along

207
00:07:32,085 --> 00:07:34,187
with World War II-era technology

208
00:07:34,221 --> 00:07:37,791
while we're being
hammered by cyber attacks.

209
00:07:37,825 --> 00:07:40,127
So, when you say "shift in focus,"
what does that mean

210
00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:41,529
for State?

211
00:07:41,562 --> 00:07:42,763
Reprioritizing the budget.

212
00:07:42,796 --> 00:07:44,231
Some programs will be affected.

213
00:07:44,264 --> 00:07:45,799
How long are we talk...?

214
00:07:45,833 --> 00:07:47,134
I can't speak to that.

215
00:07:47,167 --> 00:07:48,268
JAY: Let me understand this.

216
00:07:48,301 --> 00:07:51,639
Initiatives that actually
build peace and stability,

217
00:07:51,672 --> 00:07:53,707
like trade agreements,

218
00:07:53,741 --> 00:07:57,144
supporting education
and economic growth,

219
00:07:57,177 --> 00:07:59,613
building partnerships
and alliances...

220
00:07:59,647 --> 00:08:01,815
We're just gonna push
some of that aside so we can

221
00:08:01,849 --> 00:08:04,251
focus on spying
on everyone better?

222
00:08:04,284 --> 00:08:06,253
NADINE: There
could be an upside.

223
00:08:06,286 --> 00:08:08,221
We'll have less oversight.

224
00:08:08,255 --> 00:08:10,624
Exactly. Think of
this as an opportunity.

225
00:08:10,658 --> 00:08:11,701
You know, we can be creative,

226
00:08:11,725 --> 00:08:13,160
fly under the radar,

227
00:08:13,193 --> 00:08:15,963
lay groundwork for when
things swing back in our direction.

228
00:08:15,996 --> 00:08:17,574
Yeah,
until we're all fired for being redundant.

229
00:08:17,598 --> 00:08:20,100
I get that this is frustrating,
okay?

230
00:08:20,133 --> 00:08:22,670
But this is what's happening,
so we all need to get on board.

231
00:08:22,703 --> 00:08:25,573
Read the proposal and come
up with some ideas and solutions.

232
00:08:25,606 --> 00:08:27,575
Thank you.

233
00:08:27,608 --> 00:08:30,243
(door closes) We'll
reconvene after lunch.

234
00:08:30,277 --> 00:08:32,279
(water running)

235
00:08:39,687 --> 00:08:42,756
I'm guessing this is Sterling's work,
ma'am?

236
00:08:42,790 --> 00:08:46,259
You know that he thinks that
the Chinese research station

237
00:08:46,293 --> 00:08:48,295
is a collusion with Russia

238
00:08:48,328 --> 00:08:51,665
to intercept our satellite
communications?

239
00:08:53,033 --> 00:08:55,769
(sighs)

240
00:08:55,803 --> 00:08:57,805
Thank you.

241
00:08:57,838 --> 00:08:59,840
You think it's a possibility?

242
00:09:01,775 --> 00:09:03,611
Well, put it this way.

243
00:09:03,644 --> 00:09:06,780
I read that one of the
projects at the research station

244
00:09:06,814 --> 00:09:08,849
is to extract an ice core

245
00:09:08,882 --> 00:09:12,686
that's just a little longer
than the one extracted

246
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:13,954
by the U.S.

247
00:09:13,987 --> 00:09:17,224
It always comes down to who's
got the longer core, doesn't it?

248
00:09:17,257 --> 00:09:19,326
I also think

249
00:09:19,359 --> 00:09:22,362
we've done our share of
spying on other nations,

250
00:09:22,395 --> 00:09:24,197
and I'm not so sure
one research station

251
00:09:24,231 --> 00:09:27,668
warrants a complete
military overhaul.

252
00:09:27,701 --> 00:09:30,370
But they don't ask
me these questions.

253
00:09:30,403 --> 00:09:32,706
They don't ask me either,
anymore.

254
00:09:32,740 --> 00:09:34,708
You'll find a way to be heard.

255
00:09:34,742 --> 00:09:36,777
(door opens) DAISY:
I'm sorry to interrupt,

256
00:09:36,810 --> 00:09:38,011
Madam Secretary.

257
00:09:38,045 --> 00:09:39,146
Oh, the tablet of doom.

258
00:09:39,179 --> 00:09:41,157
Better make it quick,
while we still have a budget.

259
00:09:41,181 --> 00:09:42,850
It's actually somewhat personal.

260
00:09:42,883 --> 00:09:44,618
Oh. Excuse me.

261
00:09:44,652 --> 00:09:46,219
(whispering): Thank you.

262
00:09:46,253 --> 00:09:48,121
One of my contacts
at the Chronicle

263
00:09:48,155 --> 00:09:50,257
just forwarded a query
that's going around.

264
00:09:50,290 --> 00:09:52,760
(door closes) It
seems to... well,

265
00:09:52,793 --> 00:09:56,063
it seems to be from
someone in possession of...

266
00:09:56,096 --> 00:09:57,765
Spit it out, Daisy.

267
00:09:57,798 --> 00:09:59,767
Someone is trying to sell
photos of your daughter

268
00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:01,769
and the president's
son being... intimate.

269
00:10:01,802 --> 00:10:04,237
What?! They included

270
00:10:04,271 --> 00:10:06,273
one photo as proof,
but once the seller

271
00:10:06,306 --> 00:10:07,708
gets paid,
they're promising more.

272
00:10:07,741 --> 00:10:09,710
More than this? Everything.

273
00:10:24,024 --> 00:10:25,793
Find out everyone
who got this query.

274
00:10:25,826 --> 00:10:28,095
I want a full list. Does
Russell Jackson know yet?

275
00:10:28,128 --> 00:10:30,073
I literally just found out
two minutes ago. I want us

276
00:10:30,097 --> 00:10:31,965
in front of it with him.

277
00:10:31,999 --> 00:10:34,001
Come on, Henry, pick up.

278
00:10:34,034 --> 00:10:35,703
We can kill this, right?

279
00:10:35,736 --> 00:10:37,013
We're gonna do everything we can,
obviously,

280
00:10:37,037 --> 00:10:38,972
but with the teaser
photo already out there...

281
00:10:39,006 --> 00:10:40,140
Teaser photo?

282
00:10:40,173 --> 00:10:41,284
Like an ad campaign? I'm sorry.

283
00:10:41,308 --> 00:10:43,777
Ma'am,
Russell Jackson wants to see you

284
00:10:43,811 --> 00:10:44,945
in his office.

285
00:10:44,978 --> 00:10:46,022
He says it's extremely urgent.

286
00:10:46,046 --> 00:10:47,915
So much for
getting in front of it.

287
00:10:47,948 --> 00:10:50,026
JACKSON: We've contacted
every outlet that got the query.

288
00:10:50,050 --> 00:10:52,119
If they make the purchase,

289
00:10:52,152 --> 00:10:54,421
they'll feel the full force
of the Executive Branch.

290
00:10:54,454 --> 00:10:57,057
But isn't Harrison
enough of a public figure

291
00:10:57,090 --> 00:10:59,126
that they can claim fair use?

292
00:10:59,159 --> 00:11:02,129
Not if I have
anything to do with it.

293
00:11:02,162 --> 00:11:05,298
Half an hour ago,
I thought Maria Ostrov was the only thing

294
00:11:05,332 --> 00:11:08,836
that could hijack the news cycle
and run down our poll numbers.

295
00:11:08,869 --> 00:11:11,304
You thinking this is another hack,
like Air Force One?

296
00:11:11,338 --> 00:11:12,840
This wasn't a hack.

297
00:11:12,873 --> 00:11:15,208
The president's
son lost his phone

298
00:11:15,242 --> 00:11:17,210
last week,
didn't bother to tell anybody.

299
00:11:17,244 --> 00:11:19,747
Didn't it have a-a
password or...?

300
00:11:19,780 --> 00:11:23,083
Apparently,
he thought they were inconvenient.

301
00:11:23,116 --> 00:11:24,752
We need to move forward.

302
00:11:24,785 --> 00:11:26,286
I need you to talk to Stevie,

303
00:11:26,319 --> 00:11:28,155
find out what else
we're looking at.

304
00:11:28,188 --> 00:11:29,790
God forbid there's video.

305
00:11:29,823 --> 00:11:31,267
And you're gonna talk to Harrison,
too, right?

306
00:11:31,291 --> 00:11:32,960
Just so we're clear
on who did what?

307
00:11:32,993 --> 00:11:34,962
I don't really give a
damn who did what.

308
00:11:34,995 --> 00:11:37,097
Yes, we're talking to
Harrison the heroin addict.

309
00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:43,303
We need to corroborate
so we can contain the blast.

310
00:11:43,336 --> 00:11:45,105
Get me a report.

311
00:11:51,912 --> 00:11:53,356
Obviously this is a
matter we need to treat

312
00:11:53,380 --> 00:11:55,148
with the highest
degree of sensitivity.

313
00:11:55,182 --> 00:11:57,160
This is a potential criminal
act against two people

314
00:11:57,184 --> 00:11:59,019
who happen to be
related to public figures.

315
00:11:59,052 --> 00:12:00,797
The incident is currently
under investigation

316
00:12:00,821 --> 00:12:02,790
and we have nothing more to add.

317
00:12:02,823 --> 00:12:04,491
But this is assuming
the photos get out.

318
00:12:04,524 --> 00:12:06,894
We're up against freedom
of the press on that.

319
00:12:06,927 --> 00:12:08,228
We're doing everything we can

320
00:12:08,261 --> 00:12:09,372
to find the source
and lock this down.

321
00:12:09,396 --> 00:12:11,231
Legally.

322
00:12:11,264 --> 00:12:12,099
Thank you.

323
00:12:12,132 --> 00:12:14,301
Everybody, sit back down.

324
00:12:14,334 --> 00:12:17,070
I'm not here to tell you
what to do in your off hours.

325
00:12:17,104 --> 00:12:19,072
But you know what
I'm about to say.

326
00:12:19,106 --> 00:12:21,074
If any of you have
any digital evidence

327
00:12:21,108 --> 00:12:22,810
on any of your devices anywhere

328
00:12:22,843 --> 00:12:24,812
that you don't want
everyone to see,

329
00:12:24,845 --> 00:12:26,814
now is the time to delete it.

330
00:12:26,847 --> 00:12:29,149
Print out a copy for
your private records,

331
00:12:29,182 --> 00:12:31,318
lock it in a drawer,
but no digital footprint.

332
00:12:31,351 --> 00:12:32,419
NADINE: Okay.

333
00:12:32,452 --> 00:12:34,121
Thank you, everyone.

334
00:12:38,425 --> 00:12:42,262
So... if I'm on Tinder,

335
00:12:42,295 --> 00:12:44,297
that's not a... a problem,
right?

336
00:12:45,999 --> 00:12:46,967
Um, I would say,

337
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:49,970
unless there's something
obscene in your profile

338
00:12:50,003 --> 00:12:52,105
then, by all means, date away.

339
00:12:52,139 --> 00:12:53,807
Okay, cool.

340
00:12:55,142 --> 00:12:57,110
It's not weird that I asked you that,
is it?

341
00:12:57,144 --> 00:12:58,111
Of course not.

342
00:12:58,145 --> 00:13:00,147
I appreciate the heads-up.

343
00:13:00,180 --> 00:13:02,249
Okay.

344
00:13:02,282 --> 00:13:05,318
I'm gonna... Yeah.

345
00:13:05,352 --> 00:13:07,220
That was weird.

346
00:13:10,123 --> 00:13:12,092
But how?

347
00:13:12,125 --> 00:13:14,161
HENRY: Well,
apparently he lost his phone,

348
00:13:14,194 --> 00:13:15,338
and it fell into
the wrong hands.

349
00:13:15,362 --> 00:13:17,330
Now I know why he was calling

350
00:13:17,364 --> 00:13:18,999
from all those other numbers.

351
00:13:19,032 --> 00:13:21,144
ELIZABETH: Sweetie,
it's completely wrong that this happened,

352
00:13:21,168 --> 00:13:23,103
but now we have to deal with it.

353
00:13:23,136 --> 00:13:24,905
Can you tell me
what else is on there?

354
00:13:28,308 --> 00:13:30,343
I'm gonna get us some coffee.

355
00:13:32,379 --> 00:13:34,882
Um, what do you mean,
"What else"?

356
00:13:34,915 --> 00:13:39,352
Well, the guy,
whoever took the phone,

357
00:13:39,386 --> 00:13:41,354
sent out one of the photos.

358
00:13:41,388 --> 00:13:43,190
It's already out there?!

359
00:13:43,223 --> 00:13:45,192
Not yet.

360
00:13:45,225 --> 00:13:48,461
"Sent" more like,
"proof that there's more."

361
00:13:48,495 --> 00:13:50,463
(groaning): Oh, my God.

362
00:13:50,497 --> 00:13:53,000
You're both in bed,
nothing's showing.

363
00:13:53,033 --> 00:13:56,403
But I need to know what else
there is so I can manage it.

364
00:13:56,436 --> 00:14:02,209
Um... I don't know,
I-I don't remember.

365
00:14:02,242 --> 00:14:04,077
Baby, I get that this is hard,

366
00:14:04,111 --> 00:14:05,431
but the White House
needs to know.

367
00:14:09,282 --> 00:14:11,251
Harrison said he was
gonna delete them.

368
00:14:11,284 --> 00:14:12,452
He promised me.

369
00:14:12,485 --> 00:14:14,321
I mean,
we were just goofing around.

370
00:14:14,354 --> 00:14:15,322
It was not a big deal.

371
00:14:15,355 --> 00:14:16,957
It was one time.

372
00:14:16,990 --> 00:14:18,201
So there is nudity?
Nothing gross.

373
00:14:18,225 --> 00:14:22,229
But, yeah,
we were in bed, so yes.

374
00:14:22,262 --> 00:14:24,231
Were you guys...?

375
00:14:24,264 --> 00:14:27,234
I mean,
they're... they're gonna probably ask...

376
00:14:27,267 --> 00:14:28,969
Were you guys doing anything?

377
00:14:29,002 --> 00:14:29,970
Of course not.

378
00:14:30,003 --> 00:14:31,038
It was after.

379
00:14:31,071 --> 00:14:33,306
Thank you.

380
00:14:33,340 --> 00:14:35,475
Mom, I'm sorry.

381
00:14:37,244 --> 00:14:38,378
So am I.

382
00:14:45,352 --> 00:14:47,220
Hey. Hey.

383
00:14:51,358 --> 00:14:54,661
You remember that
weekend at Falls Lake?

384
00:14:54,694 --> 00:14:56,663
Oh, of course.

385
00:14:56,696 --> 00:14:58,431
(chuckles)

386
00:14:59,266 --> 00:15:01,501
Thank God there was no Internet.

387
00:15:03,503 --> 00:15:06,306
This is different. Is it?

388
00:15:06,339 --> 00:15:09,442
Yes. I work for the
president of the United States,

389
00:15:09,476 --> 00:15:12,179
who's running for reelection.
She can't just pretend

390
00:15:12,212 --> 00:15:14,181
she's not aware of that anymore.

391
00:15:14,214 --> 00:15:18,185
And, I mean,
how many dumb moves are we gonna give her?

392
00:15:18,218 --> 00:15:22,022
How far does it have to go for
her to realize what's at stake?

393
00:15:22,055 --> 00:15:25,158
And not just for
her but for all of us.

394
00:15:25,192 --> 00:15:26,635
It sucks that this
happened. I get that.

395
00:15:26,659 --> 00:15:29,362
But is it really her
job to prevent it?

396
00:15:29,396 --> 00:15:30,630
Yes! Everybody knows

397
00:15:30,663 --> 00:15:33,566
you don't put nudie
pictures on your telephone.

398
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:36,569
Cell phone. Whatever.

399
00:15:36,603 --> 00:15:40,607
(sighs) This puzzle
is ridiculously hard.

400
00:15:41,608 --> 00:15:43,610
What?

401
00:15:45,612 --> 00:15:47,314
If these pictures get out,

402
00:15:47,347 --> 00:15:50,450
you know what the
world would do to Stevie.

403
00:15:50,483 --> 00:15:52,585
I just hate to
see you do it first.

404
00:15:52,619 --> 00:15:55,622
What's that? Blame her.

405
00:16:03,096 --> 00:16:06,399
Morning. So,
I have a draft of that diplomatic cable

406
00:16:06,433 --> 00:16:08,411
about the Chinese weather
station in the Arctic. Right.

407
00:16:08,435 --> 00:16:12,005
But... we can do
this another time.

408
00:16:12,039 --> 00:16:13,406
Are those doughnuts?

409
00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:15,108
Bagels.

410
00:16:15,142 --> 00:16:16,543
That'll do.

411
00:16:16,576 --> 00:16:20,347
JAY: We're already using "Welcome
to the Arctic research community"

412
00:16:20,380 --> 00:16:22,682
to say,
"Don't even think about drilling up there."

413
00:16:22,715 --> 00:16:24,751
But you really want to
try to implicate Russia

414
00:16:24,784 --> 00:16:27,687
for letting them in,
on top of that? Just a whiff of it.

415
00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:29,389
Something like, um,

416
00:16:29,422 --> 00:16:33,660
"Protecting the
diplomatic integrity of...

417
00:16:33,693 --> 00:16:36,729
"the Arctic is the
chief objective

418
00:16:36,763 --> 00:16:39,732
"of the Arctic Council
and the United States.

419
00:16:39,766 --> 00:16:43,670
So, you know,
don't try anything with Russia."

420
00:16:43,703 --> 00:16:47,340
First of all,
Russia's almost as territorial as China is.

421
00:16:47,374 --> 00:16:49,342
There's no way
they're gonna share

422
00:16:49,376 --> 00:16:51,387
all their new shipping lanes
with another superpower

423
00:16:51,411 --> 00:16:54,047
once the polar ice cap melts. I know,
right? Total fiction.

424
00:16:54,081 --> 00:16:56,383
Can I ask why we're
ringing that bell?

425
00:16:56,416 --> 00:16:59,319
I'm told it'll play well.

426
00:16:59,352 --> 00:17:00,420
You're just in time.

427
00:17:00,453 --> 00:17:01,621
He's introducing Henry.

428
00:17:01,654 --> 00:17:05,125
Madam Secretary, I am so sorry.

429
00:17:05,158 --> 00:17:06,326
Oh, no.

430
00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:11,564
The photo that was sent with
the query has appeared online.

431
00:17:11,598 --> 00:17:12,432
Where?

432
00:17:12,465 --> 00:17:13,433
For the moment,

433
00:17:13,466 --> 00:17:15,102
a user-generated news site.

434
00:17:15,135 --> 00:17:16,569
Relatively low-profile.

435
00:17:16,603 --> 00:17:19,572
All of the other photos
are still under wraps.

436
00:17:19,606 --> 00:17:21,274
But now that word's out...

437
00:17:21,308 --> 00:17:23,419
DAISY: It's only a matter of
time till someone buys the rest.

438
00:17:23,443 --> 00:17:25,545
There has to be
something we can do.

439
00:17:25,578 --> 00:17:27,690
NADINE: Well, I've reached
out to Russell Jackson's office.

440
00:17:27,714 --> 00:17:30,183
We can move your
afternoon commitments

441
00:17:30,217 --> 00:17:32,119
and make a task force.

442
00:17:32,152 --> 00:17:33,629
Let's not change the schedule.
The president wants everything

443
00:17:33,653 --> 00:17:36,089
to move forward as
usual. It might be best

444
00:17:36,123 --> 00:17:39,326
to reschedule the meet and greet
with the Royal Kumari of Nepal.

445
00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:40,393
Why's that?

446
00:17:40,427 --> 00:17:48,135
Um... it's a devoutly
religious country.

447
00:17:48,168 --> 00:17:49,802
She's a virgin goddess.

448
00:17:49,836 --> 00:17:52,339
Well, let's just hope

449
00:17:52,372 --> 00:17:55,408
the prepubescent virgin
goddess who lives in a temple

450
00:17:55,442 --> 00:17:58,545
doesn't spend much
time on the Internet.

451
00:17:58,578 --> 00:18:00,280
The meeting stays.

452
00:18:00,313 --> 00:18:02,415
HOST: There really is so much to mine,
isn't there,

453
00:18:02,449 --> 00:18:04,884
in this liminal border
between the Christian

454
00:18:04,917 --> 00:18:06,586
and the Muslim worlds.

455
00:18:06,619 --> 00:18:08,531
Well, it's precisely the
blurriness in this moment

456
00:18:08,555 --> 00:18:10,390
of transition where we can see

457
00:18:10,423 --> 00:18:13,460
the common sources
behind so much

458
00:18:13,493 --> 00:18:15,762
of our cultural and
spiritual conflict.

459
00:18:15,795 --> 00:18:18,298
Mm. Like stumbling
onto a wealth of scrolls

460
00:18:18,331 --> 00:18:19,832
preserved in a cave.

461
00:18:19,866 --> 00:18:21,601
Well, sure, yeah.

462
00:18:21,634 --> 00:18:24,471
Why don't we open
things up to our callers?

463
00:18:24,504 --> 00:18:26,539
Jeff from Fair Oaks. JEFF: Yes,
hi.

464
00:18:26,573 --> 00:18:28,308
Go ahead with Dr. Henry McCord.

465
00:18:28,341 --> 00:18:29,609
Hi, Jeff.

466
00:18:29,642 --> 00:18:31,311
JEFF: Uh,
I've been listening to you talk

467
00:18:31,344 --> 00:18:32,845
about the moral
codes of Christianity

468
00:18:32,879 --> 00:18:34,714
and Islam. And I
think it's so interesting

469
00:18:34,747 --> 00:18:36,916
that you hold yourself up
as an expert on morality

470
00:18:36,949 --> 00:18:39,719
when all I'm finding
online about you is a photo

471
00:18:39,752 --> 00:18:41,521
of your daughter
rolling around in bed

472
00:18:41,554 --> 00:18:43,656
with the president's
son. Excuse me?

473
00:18:43,690 --> 00:18:45,868
I'm sorry. Uh, Jeff,
we lost our conne... No, no, let me finish.

474
00:18:45,892 --> 00:18:48,495
Is that your definition of moral parenting,
Dr. McCord?

475
00:18:48,528 --> 00:18:51,598
Is that your definition? No,
no, I'd like to answer that.

476
00:18:51,631 --> 00:18:53,533
You ask an interesting question,
Jeff.

477
00:18:53,566 --> 00:18:54,501
I'd like to start by
making a distinction

478
00:18:54,534 --> 00:18:56,503
that I usually make
on the very first day

479
00:18:56,536 --> 00:18:58,438
of my Morals and Ethics class.

480
00:18:58,471 --> 00:19:00,873
A lot of people say that
morals are how we treat

481
00:19:00,907 --> 00:19:02,875
the people we know and
ethics are how we treat

482
00:19:02,909 --> 00:19:04,344
the people we don't know.

483
00:19:04,377 --> 00:19:07,280
So morals are what
make us a good parent,

484
00:19:07,314 --> 00:19:09,549
a good friend, a nice neighbor.

485
00:19:09,582 --> 00:19:11,684
But ethics are how
we build a society.

486
00:19:11,718 --> 00:19:14,854
That's the true test
of our higher self.

487
00:19:14,887 --> 00:19:17,657
But what happens, Jeff,
when society is ruled

488
00:19:17,690 --> 00:19:21,494
by the subjective morals of,
say, you

489
00:19:21,528 --> 00:19:23,663
and your family and
you choose to project that

490
00:19:23,696 --> 00:19:26,499
onto complete strangers is
that we all end up with a society

491
00:19:26,533 --> 00:19:28,201
that's governed by
self-aggrandizement.

492
00:19:28,235 --> 00:19:29,736
So, really, by calling Oh...

493
00:19:29,769 --> 00:19:31,614
to make sure you're the
first little pedant to jump

494
00:19:31,638 --> 00:19:33,840
off your chair and
teach me a lesson

495
00:19:33,873 --> 00:19:35,875
with smug superiority about

496
00:19:35,908 --> 00:19:37,544
your own particular
moral point of view

497
00:19:37,577 --> 00:19:39,546
when you know precisely
nothing of the situation,

498
00:19:39,579 --> 00:19:41,681
you've done your
part to contribute

499
00:19:41,714 --> 00:19:44,751
to the erosion of our
entire social fabric.

500
00:19:44,784 --> 00:19:47,987
Pat yourself on the back. Bravo.

501
00:19:48,020 --> 00:19:50,590
HOST: Uh,
so we are... going to take a break.

502
00:19:50,623 --> 00:19:52,692
I'm gonna go make some calls.

503
00:19:58,898 --> 00:20:00,943
HENRY: Do I want to know how
bad it is? It's just the one photo.

504
00:20:00,967 --> 00:20:01,934
Somebody leaked it.

505
00:20:01,968 --> 00:20:03,736
The rest are still under wraps.

506
00:20:03,770 --> 00:20:06,273
I mean how bad did I
make things for you?

507
00:20:06,306 --> 00:20:08,708
You're still my hero.

508
00:20:08,741 --> 00:20:10,319
No, I'm not. I went off like
a hopped up undergrad.

509
00:20:10,343 --> 00:20:13,280
You did what I have
been wanting to do

510
00:20:13,313 --> 00:20:16,616
all day. Instead,
I have to listen to my staff imply

511
00:20:16,649 --> 00:20:19,786
that I shouldn't be sitting down
with a virgin goddess from Nepal

512
00:20:19,819 --> 00:20:21,288
while my slutty daughter

513
00:20:21,321 --> 00:20:23,823
is all over the
Internet. Not you.

514
00:20:23,856 --> 00:20:25,358
You have a meeting
with a Kumari?

515
00:20:25,392 --> 00:20:26,959
He knows what a Kumari is.

516
00:20:26,993 --> 00:20:29,529
Don't ever change.

517
00:20:29,562 --> 00:20:30,297
How old is she?

518
00:20:30,330 --> 00:20:31,531
12. Almost ready

519
00:20:31,564 --> 00:20:33,800
to retire. Okay,
I'm getting more

520
00:20:33,833 --> 00:20:36,803
"bad news" face. Hold on. No
further news on your daughter, ma'am.

521
00:20:36,836 --> 00:20:39,539
But I just got word
from the Hill. It now looks

522
00:20:39,572 --> 00:20:42,842
like the disaster relief
bill is not going to pass.

523
00:20:42,875 --> 00:20:46,379
(sighs) Henry, I got to go. Bye.

524
00:20:46,413 --> 00:20:49,382
What happened to the Tin Man?
I thought we had the Tin Man.

525
00:20:49,416 --> 00:20:51,551
This morning,
when the president's numbers dropped,

526
00:20:51,584 --> 00:20:52,819
three more senators

527
00:20:52,852 --> 00:20:54,821
took the opportunity
to flip their positions.

528
00:20:54,854 --> 00:20:57,757
Over a photo sex scandal?

529
00:20:57,790 --> 00:20:59,559
The vote will be
up again in January.

530
00:20:59,592 --> 00:21:01,694
By which time thousands
of people will have died

531
00:21:01,728 --> 00:21:02,829
of exposure and disease.

532
00:21:02,862 --> 00:21:04,331
Well, at least now

533
00:21:04,364 --> 00:21:05,665
you have a good excuse to cancel

534
00:21:05,698 --> 00:21:08,000
my photo op with
the virgin goddess.

535
00:21:08,034 --> 00:21:09,336
The Kumari and

536
00:21:09,369 --> 00:21:11,070
her entourage
have already arrived.

537
00:21:11,103 --> 00:21:14,774
I will send the press away
and break the news privately.

538
00:21:14,807 --> 00:21:15,908
No.

539
00:21:17,076 --> 00:21:19,412
I will tell her.

540
00:21:19,446 --> 00:21:21,581
Thank you.

541
00:21:26,453 --> 00:21:28,855
It is an honor, Kumari.

542
00:21:28,888 --> 00:21:31,524
Kumari is pleased to meet you,
Madam Secretary.

543
00:21:31,558 --> 00:21:33,760
We were expecting
a bit more press.

544
00:21:34,794 --> 00:21:38,731
I know the honor

545
00:21:38,765 --> 00:21:40,066
of the presence of the Kumari

546
00:21:40,099 --> 00:21:41,668
brought a great
deal of attention

547
00:21:41,701 --> 00:21:42,869
to the plight of Nepal

548
00:21:42,902 --> 00:21:46,473
after the terrible
disaster you've endured.

549
00:21:46,506 --> 00:21:49,008
But unfortunately,

550
00:21:49,041 --> 00:21:51,544
support for the
additional aid package

551
00:21:51,578 --> 00:21:53,880
will not be approved by
the U.S. Congress today.

552
00:21:53,913 --> 00:21:55,582
That is not what we were led

553
00:21:55,615 --> 00:21:57,417
to expect. The conditions

554
00:21:57,450 --> 00:21:58,985
have changed, unfortunately.

555
00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:04,891
We will revisit the
proposal as soon as we can.

556
00:22:04,924 --> 00:22:08,528
I hope you will accept
my deepest apology

557
00:22:08,561 --> 00:22:11,498
and sympathy for your people.

558
00:22:15,802 --> 00:22:18,004
It is her blessing.

559
00:22:37,524 --> 00:22:39,492
No.

560
00:22:39,526 --> 00:22:43,796
I'm done. No more bad news.

561
00:22:43,830 --> 00:22:47,667
The president has
invited you and Dr. McCord

562
00:22:47,700 --> 00:22:50,803
to join him and the First Lady
for dinner at the White House

563
00:22:50,837 --> 00:22:52,405
this evening.

564
00:22:52,439 --> 00:22:53,640
Is that it?

565
00:22:53,673 --> 00:22:56,709
I can try to find some bad news.

566
00:22:56,743 --> 00:22:58,144
No need.

567
00:22:58,177 --> 00:23:02,482
Pretty sure that dinner
invitation is bad news enough.

568
00:23:03,550 --> 00:23:04,316
What's up?

569
00:23:04,350 --> 00:23:05,630
Would you close the door,
please?

570
00:23:07,620 --> 00:23:10,923
So, I'm trying to delete a file

571
00:23:10,957 --> 00:23:13,526
of old photos... Mm-hmm.

572
00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:15,628
But ever since I
switched to the cloud...

573
00:23:15,662 --> 00:23:17,930
They keep coming
back? Like a bad penny.

574
00:23:17,964 --> 00:23:19,932
I've had this.

575
00:23:19,966 --> 00:23:21,834
Okay,
let's go to your cloud preferences.

576
00:23:21,868 --> 00:23:23,169
Did that.

577
00:23:23,202 --> 00:23:25,505
Okay,
now select the ones you want to kill.

578
00:23:25,538 --> 00:23:27,574
Uh... Oh. (Laughs)

579
00:23:28,808 --> 00:23:31,611
What we're gonna do is,
we're gonna create a ghost file.

580
00:23:31,644 --> 00:23:33,646
Um... I'm not looking, swear.

581
00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:35,915
There's nothing unsavory.

582
00:23:35,948 --> 00:23:38,685
It's just, thought I'd get rid

583
00:23:38,718 --> 00:23:40,553
of the hanging
chads... so to speak.

584
00:23:40,587 --> 00:23:41,688
Oh, I get it.

585
00:23:41,721 --> 00:23:44,891
You don't want to be looking
at these things at 2:00 a.m.

586
00:23:44,924 --> 00:23:46,859
after a glass of wine
and too much Adele.

587
00:23:46,893 --> 00:23:48,695
Not that I speak
from experience.

588
00:23:48,728 --> 00:23:50,697
Scotch and Joni Mitchell for me.

589
00:23:50,730 --> 00:23:52,799
For what it's worth,

590
00:23:52,832 --> 00:23:56,235
it's only brutal
for the first year.

591
00:23:56,268 --> 00:23:57,537
Okay, can I ask?

592
00:23:57,570 --> 00:23:59,171
How can I be his ideal woman,

593
00:23:59,205 --> 00:24:00,807
and five minutes
after we break up,

594
00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:02,241
he's dating some barista

595
00:24:02,274 --> 00:24:03,886
who can't even properly use
the possessive apostrophe?

596
00:24:03,910 --> 00:24:05,878
Did you Facebook stalk?

597
00:24:05,912 --> 00:24:08,214
No. A little.

598
00:24:08,247 --> 00:24:11,250
Well, whoever she is,

599
00:24:11,283 --> 00:24:15,822
she's probably very
simple and very needy,

600
00:24:15,855 --> 00:24:17,790
and that's exactly
what he wants right now.

601
00:24:17,824 --> 00:24:20,593
You know you could do the same.

602
00:24:20,627 --> 00:24:23,663
That cyber security guy
clearly has an eye for you.

603
00:24:23,696 --> 00:24:26,132
No, he doesn't. Does he?

604
00:24:26,165 --> 00:24:28,100
So, that's my problem?

605
00:24:28,134 --> 00:24:29,802
I'm not needy enough?

606
00:24:29,836 --> 00:24:32,639
It's in their DNA. They want
to feel like we need them.

607
00:24:32,672 --> 00:24:33,673
You realize

608
00:24:33,706 --> 00:24:35,775
the entire feminist
movement would have us hung

609
00:24:35,808 --> 00:24:37,009
for this conversation.

610
00:24:37,043 --> 00:24:40,813
Well,
a fish may not need a bicycle, but...

611
00:24:40,847 --> 00:24:46,018
Gloria Steinem probably
never spent Saturday night alone

612
00:24:46,052 --> 00:24:48,054
at Bed Bath & Beyond.

613
00:24:50,222 --> 00:24:51,290
Whoa. The good suit, huh?

614
00:24:51,323 --> 00:24:53,660
Oh, I figure,
mea culpa dinner with the president.

615
00:24:53,693 --> 00:24:56,763
Yeah. I don't know
that it's your mea culpa.

616
00:24:56,796 --> 00:24:58,297
(shouting): Kids! Pizza!

617
00:24:58,330 --> 00:24:59,666
Don't get me wrong.

618
00:24:59,699 --> 00:25:01,668
That was a spectacular rant, but

619
00:25:01,701 --> 00:25:03,202
I haven't heard any fallout.

620
00:25:03,235 --> 00:25:05,213
So, if a tree falls on C-SPAN,
does it make a sound?

621
00:25:05,237 --> 00:25:06,205
Is that what you're saying?

622
00:25:06,238 --> 00:25:07,940
Ooh, pizza.

623
00:25:07,974 --> 00:25:10,185
Listen, we're going out to the
White House tonight for dinner.

624
00:25:10,209 --> 00:25:12,154
Ooh, Dad's getting called
into the principal's office?

625
00:25:12,178 --> 00:25:13,580
What does that mean?

626
00:25:13,613 --> 00:25:14,914
Please. Your epic TV rant?

627
00:25:14,947 --> 00:25:16,315
What epic rant?

628
00:25:16,348 --> 00:25:17,717
Check it out. Dad's a gif.

629
00:25:17,750 --> 00:25:20,820
You've officially made it.

630
00:25:20,853 --> 00:25:22,154
Great.

631
00:25:22,188 --> 00:25:23,723
Jace, are you okay?

632
00:25:23,756 --> 00:25:26,125
Yeah. Yeah,
I'm just sore from practice.

633
00:25:26,158 --> 00:25:28,761
All right, listen, kids,
I don't know how much you know,

634
00:25:28,795 --> 00:25:30,606
but something really
uncool happened to Stevie.

635
00:25:30,630 --> 00:25:31,964
We know. The
picture's everywhere.

636
00:25:31,998 --> 00:25:33,966
I just don't see
what the big deal is.

637
00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:35,768
Well, the big deal is

638
00:25:35,802 --> 00:25:38,638
that it's a gross
invasion of privacy

639
00:25:38,671 --> 00:25:40,683
but, unfortunately,
something that we may have to deal with

640
00:25:40,707 --> 00:25:42,709
'cause our family's in
the public eye and all that.

641
00:25:42,742 --> 00:25:45,778
But we are doing what we can
to keep it from moving forward.

642
00:25:45,812 --> 00:25:47,756
Okay? Just... yeah. Yeah,
so just be sensitive, all right?

643
00:25:47,780 --> 00:25:48,924
ALISON: Of course.
Yeah. It'll all blow over

644
00:25:48,948 --> 00:25:50,583
as soon as a cooler
gif comes along.

645
00:25:50,617 --> 00:25:51,884
Hey, guys. Dude, pizza.

646
00:25:51,918 --> 00:25:53,620
Oh, I'm not doing cheese.

647
00:25:53,653 --> 00:25:55,021
And you're back to vegan.

648
00:25:55,054 --> 00:25:57,990
ELIZABETH: Listen, we're going out,
so you guys are on your own.

649
00:25:58,024 --> 00:26:00,893
Get to bed on time. I am speaking to you,
sir.

650
00:26:00,927 --> 00:26:02,094
Bye. Good-bye.

651
00:26:02,128 --> 00:26:04,130
Bye. Bye, sweets.

652
00:26:05,632 --> 00:26:07,867
Okay,
who wants to watch a movie?

653
00:26:07,900 --> 00:26:09,736
Oh, I'm down. Not me.

654
00:26:15,107 --> 00:26:18,811
My mother always insisted that
vichyssoise was only for summer,

655
00:26:18,845 --> 00:26:20,079
but I find it very comforting.

656
00:26:20,112 --> 00:26:22,014
Oh,
we could certainly use a little comfort.

657
00:26:22,048 --> 00:26:23,650
Thank you, Lydia.

658
00:26:23,683 --> 00:26:25,017
HENRY: Again, Conrad,

659
00:26:25,051 --> 00:26:26,919
I am so sorry
for losing it today.

660
00:26:26,953 --> 00:26:28,120
We're all on edge.

661
00:26:28,154 --> 00:26:30,122
How's everybody doing at home?

662
00:26:30,156 --> 00:26:31,724
Holding our breath, I'd say.

663
00:26:31,758 --> 00:26:33,626
Any news on who might
have the photographs?

664
00:26:33,660 --> 00:26:36,062
Not yet,
which is why we need to be ready

665
00:26:36,095 --> 00:26:38,631
for this to get worse...
as early as tomorrow.

666
00:26:38,665 --> 00:26:40,833
That sounds ominous.
What are you thinking?

667
00:26:40,867 --> 00:26:43,102
Well, we'd, uh,
like to put Stevie and Harrison

668
00:26:43,135 --> 00:26:44,737
on the morning news.

669
00:26:44,771 --> 00:26:46,205
Just a short interview

670
00:26:46,238 --> 00:26:48,107
as a couple. Get
out in front of it.

671
00:26:48,140 --> 00:26:49,676
As a couple?

672
00:26:49,709 --> 00:26:51,210
LYDIA: The team thinks it plays

673
00:26:51,243 --> 00:26:53,780
best if we see them as
two young people in love,

674
00:26:53,813 --> 00:26:55,848
regretful for their choices,
but laughing it off.

675
00:26:55,882 --> 00:26:57,717
We'd have to hit just the right tone,
but

676
00:26:57,750 --> 00:26:58,718
our people can work with them.

677
00:26:58,751 --> 00:27:01,754
You are aware they
broke up a few weeks ago.

678
00:27:01,788 --> 00:27:03,732
Well, does their relationship
status need to come up, really?

679
00:27:03,756 --> 00:27:05,357
Not if they're posing.

680
00:27:05,391 --> 00:27:06,859
DALTON: This thing has put us

681
00:27:06,893 --> 00:27:08,695
in a tough spot, Bess.

682
00:27:08,728 --> 00:27:10,229
It's a five-minute interview.

683
00:27:10,262 --> 00:27:11,731
Harrison has already agreed.

684
00:27:11,764 --> 00:27:14,133
Of course he has. I'm sorry,

685
00:27:14,166 --> 00:27:16,703
but we all know that
Harrison has nothing to lose.

686
00:27:16,736 --> 00:27:18,771
I mean,
at worst he's a recovering addict

687
00:27:18,805 --> 00:27:19,806
with a hot girlfriend.

688
00:27:19,839 --> 00:27:23,042
But Stevie will be the
slut who loses everything.

689
00:27:23,075 --> 00:27:25,244
For crying out loud, Bess,
will you help me solve

690
00:27:25,277 --> 00:27:26,846
one damn problem
that you've caused?

691
00:27:26,879 --> 00:27:28,781
HENRY: Okay, Conrad,
our kids took naked pictures

692
00:27:28,815 --> 00:27:29,882
of themselves in bed.

693
00:27:29,916 --> 00:27:31,794
What on earth does that
have to do with Elizabeth?

694
00:27:31,818 --> 00:27:33,052
It's Russia. It's Russia.

695
00:27:33,085 --> 00:27:35,755
I was there when Maria Ostrov seized power,
so,

696
00:27:35,788 --> 00:27:36,832
suddenly,
now everything's my fault.

697
00:27:36,856 --> 00:27:38,433
Do we need to bring
matters of state into this?

698
00:27:38,457 --> 00:27:40,092
You opened Pandora's
box over there!

699
00:27:40,126 --> 00:27:41,894
Now,
I'm Pandora? What'd they do to her?

700
00:27:41,928 --> 00:27:43,863
Chain her to a rock?
That was Prometheus.

701
00:27:43,896 --> 00:27:45,774
DALTON: You had to push
your agenda with Ukraine.

702
00:27:45,798 --> 00:27:47,734
Which almost worked!
It was too big a risk!

703
00:27:47,767 --> 00:27:50,069
Last I heard,
that's why you brought me in here!

704
00:27:50,102 --> 00:27:51,914
Guys, we're getting off
topic here. All I'm saying is

705
00:27:51,938 --> 00:27:53,239
that we need to right the ship.

706
00:27:53,272 --> 00:27:54,941
And I'd love a
little cooperation,

707
00:27:54,974 --> 00:27:56,075
for both our kids' sakes.

708
00:27:56,108 --> 00:27:59,478
So, putting Stevie on
national television to apologize

709
00:27:59,511 --> 00:28:01,881
for the horrible crime
of being violated...

710
00:28:01,914 --> 00:28:04,050
That's gonna right the ship,
or is she just

711
00:28:04,083 --> 00:28:05,861
apologizing for being
sexual? I'm a little unclear.

712
00:28:05,885 --> 00:28:07,019
LYDIA: No one is going

713
00:28:07,053 --> 00:28:08,855
to think anything
less of Stevie.

714
00:28:08,888 --> 00:28:09,856
Well, that's a big relief.

715
00:28:09,889 --> 00:28:12,124
We're just trying to
manage the embarrassment.

716
00:28:12,158 --> 00:28:14,293
Oh, Lydia,
I think that ship has sailed.

717
00:28:14,326 --> 00:28:15,804
After your outburst today,
I'd have to agree.

718
00:28:15,828 --> 00:28:16,863
What?

719
00:28:16,896 --> 00:28:19,131
Now we're blaming Henry
for defending his daughter?

720
00:28:19,165 --> 00:28:20,800
Why don't we talk about the fact

721
00:28:20,833 --> 00:28:22,110
that your son has
an unsecured phone?

722
00:28:22,134 --> 00:28:23,269
Who'd like another cocktail?

723
00:28:23,302 --> 00:28:25,004
I would. Me.

724
00:28:25,037 --> 00:28:28,407
Well,
thank God for Lydia Dalton.

725
00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:31,510
That woman is a
first-class WASP.

726
00:28:31,543 --> 00:28:34,180
Never underestimate the
power of gin and denial.

727
00:28:34,213 --> 00:28:35,347
(laughs) You know what?

728
00:28:35,381 --> 00:28:37,750
Actually,
I would love a nightcap.

729
00:28:37,784 --> 00:28:39,952
While I write my
letter of resignation.

730
00:28:39,986 --> 00:28:41,453
Now, come on!

731
00:28:41,487 --> 00:28:43,222
Conrad doesn't want to lose you.

732
00:28:43,255 --> 00:28:44,490
Just let the dust settle.

733
00:28:44,523 --> 00:28:49,095
Henry, I all but called the
president's son a junkie loser.

734
00:28:49,128 --> 00:28:52,164
STEVIE: Hi.

735
00:28:52,198 --> 00:28:54,867
ELIZABETH: Oh, hey. I didn't

736
00:28:54,901 --> 00:28:58,871
see you there,
sweetie... (sighs)

737
00:28:58,905 --> 00:29:01,540
It's okay. He is a loser.

738
00:29:01,573 --> 00:29:03,976
And for five minutes
tomorrow morning,

739
00:29:04,010 --> 00:29:05,978
he will still be my boyfriend.

740
00:29:06,012 --> 00:29:07,980
ELIZABETH: No, sweetie.

741
00:29:08,014 --> 00:29:09,982
You're not gonna do that.

742
00:29:10,016 --> 00:29:12,118
I already told Harrison I would.

743
00:29:12,151 --> 00:29:14,253
No,
no. Your mom and I killed it.

744
00:29:14,286 --> 00:29:16,288
They're gonna come
up with another strategy.

745
00:29:16,322 --> 00:29:19,225
I don't want to be strategized,
I don't want to be managed.

746
00:29:19,258 --> 00:29:20,860
I don't even care
what's true anymore.

747
00:29:20,893 --> 00:29:22,028
Hey.

748
00:29:22,061 --> 00:29:25,497
One of the feminist groups
on campus made posters of me

749
00:29:25,531 --> 00:29:27,433
like I'm some kind of hero.

750
00:29:27,466 --> 00:29:29,802
And then one of the
fraternities went around

751
00:29:29,836 --> 00:29:32,038
and put "#TeamMcCord"
on all of them.

752
00:29:32,872 --> 00:29:35,942
That stupid photo is everywhere.

753
00:29:35,975 --> 00:29:37,243
Dad's losing it on TV,

754
00:29:37,276 --> 00:29:38,845
Jason won't even look at me.

755
00:29:38,878 --> 00:29:40,980
(sighs) I just
want my life back.

756
00:30:07,239 --> 00:30:09,375
(groans softly)

757
00:30:11,978 --> 00:30:14,013
(sighs)

758
00:30:17,950 --> 00:30:19,986
I recommend the puzzle.

759
00:30:20,019 --> 00:30:23,222
Well,
it's a defense budget proposal.

760
00:30:23,255 --> 00:30:27,626
If this can't put me out,
nothing can.

761
00:30:27,659 --> 00:30:29,996
Hmm. (Sighs)

762
00:30:36,402 --> 00:30:38,470
Wait a minute.

763
00:30:44,576 --> 00:30:46,545
Oh, hey, Admiral Hill?

764
00:30:46,578 --> 00:30:48,547
Oh, Madam Secretary.

765
00:30:48,580 --> 00:30:50,582
I wonder if I might
get a minute with you

766
00:30:50,616 --> 00:30:51,793
to go over the budget proposal?

767
00:30:51,817 --> 00:30:54,954
I'm still catching up on it myself,
but, yes, of course.

768
00:30:54,987 --> 00:30:57,223
Oh, great. Okay,
'cause I want to show you.

769
00:30:57,256 --> 00:31:00,526
Right here... on page 204,

770
00:31:00,559 --> 00:31:04,396
we get into breakdown
on specific weaponry. Yes.

771
00:31:04,430 --> 00:31:06,465
I know what Sterling said...

772
00:31:06,498 --> 00:31:08,935
That we're looking to
go all stealth and cheap

773
00:31:08,968 --> 00:31:12,271
and fast, but what is all this?

774
00:31:12,304 --> 00:31:14,974
It's old-school,
heavy-duty military gear.

775
00:31:15,007 --> 00:31:18,477
It's-it's aircraft carriers,
tanks, dozens of choppers.

776
00:31:18,510 --> 00:31:21,180
Sterling knows that he
has to sell this to the brass.

777
00:31:21,213 --> 00:31:24,583
And this is what the
generals understand.

778
00:31:24,616 --> 00:31:28,020
But it's more than
half the budget.

779
00:31:28,054 --> 00:31:30,689
This old ship turns slowly.

780
00:31:30,722 --> 00:31:32,925
(laughs)

781
00:31:34,193 --> 00:31:36,195
Let me ask you something, Ellen.

782
00:31:38,630 --> 00:31:41,000
You agree with
Sterling's initiative?

783
00:31:41,033 --> 00:31:46,005
Do I think that Chinese
weather station is a spy outpost?

784
00:31:46,038 --> 00:31:48,107
Probably not.

785
00:31:48,140 --> 00:31:50,943
But I do think

786
00:31:50,977 --> 00:31:55,014
that this is how wars are
going to be fought in the future.

787
00:31:59,118 --> 00:32:01,120
Thank you, Admiral.

788
00:32:02,154 --> 00:32:04,490
Shakya, I'm glad I caught you.

789
00:32:04,523 --> 00:32:07,459
Could I possibly get two
minutes with the Kumari?

790
00:32:07,493 --> 00:32:08,694
SHAKYA: I'm afraid not,

791
00:32:08,727 --> 00:32:09,628
Madam Secretary.
We are just leaving.

792
00:32:09,661 --> 00:32:12,531
Pramila,
can I speak with you for a minute?

793
00:32:17,203 --> 00:32:19,371
I'm sorry.

794
00:32:19,405 --> 00:32:22,274
I want to help your country.

795
00:32:26,612 --> 00:32:28,147
You have one minute.

796
00:32:28,180 --> 00:32:30,182
Thank you.

797
00:32:31,217 --> 00:32:33,052
(door closes)

798
00:32:37,223 --> 00:32:40,026
Pramila, listen to me.

799
00:32:40,059 --> 00:32:42,361
Very soon after you return home,

800
00:32:42,394 --> 00:32:44,663
your time as a
Kumari will be finished.

801
00:32:44,696 --> 00:32:47,133
But you still have time
to help your people.

802
00:32:47,166 --> 00:32:50,569
You still have great power,
and I want to help you use it.

803
00:32:52,504 --> 00:32:54,406
Go on.

804
00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:58,210
All I need is your blessing.

805
00:32:58,244 --> 00:33:00,279
If the prime minister
comes to you

806
00:33:00,312 --> 00:33:04,083
about a building project in the Himalayas,
smile upon it.

807
00:33:04,116 --> 00:33:06,352
SHAKYA: Madam Secretary,

808
00:33:06,385 --> 00:33:08,187
the Kumari is a divinity.

809
00:33:08,220 --> 00:33:11,223
She does not rule
in matters of state.

810
00:33:12,724 --> 00:33:14,093
Thank you.

811
00:33:14,126 --> 00:33:16,095
Thank you, Madam Secretary.

812
00:33:18,697 --> 00:33:22,201
You can do a lot
more than they say.

813
00:33:22,234 --> 00:33:24,170
Your blessing could
save thousands

814
00:33:24,203 --> 00:33:26,205
of lives.

815
00:33:40,186 --> 00:33:43,255
There's my linebacker. You
up for a breakfast burrito?

816
00:33:43,289 --> 00:33:46,425
Nah, just, uh,
cereal. I'm laying off the protein.

817
00:33:46,458 --> 00:33:48,227
Best way to heal sore muscles.

818
00:33:48,260 --> 00:33:50,229
I'm dropping football.

819
00:33:50,262 --> 00:33:51,697
What?

820
00:33:51,730 --> 00:33:53,632
You just made the team,
like, two weeks ago.

821
00:33:53,665 --> 00:33:56,602
I wanted to make friends.
These idiots aren't my friends.

822
00:33:56,635 --> 00:33:59,271
Okay, you're telling me
that there's not a single kid

823
00:33:59,305 --> 00:34:01,173
on that team that's not a jerk?

824
00:34:01,207 --> 00:34:03,642
They made fun of Stevie,
Dad, right in front of my face.

825
00:34:03,675 --> 00:34:05,244
And I did nothing.

826
00:34:05,277 --> 00:34:08,414
Makes me even
worse than they are.

827
00:34:08,447 --> 00:34:10,416
You just want to smash' em,
right?

828
00:34:10,449 --> 00:34:12,084
Yeah.

829
00:34:12,118 --> 00:34:14,820
Just can't stop thinking about it,
how great it would feel.

830
00:34:14,853 --> 00:34:16,822
Pretty great.

831
00:34:16,855 --> 00:34:21,493
It would for... maybe an hour.

832
00:34:21,527 --> 00:34:24,496
Here's the thing.

833
00:34:24,530 --> 00:34:27,833
It wouldn't change anything.

834
00:34:27,866 --> 00:34:30,836
And then there's the whole
part about you getting kicked out

835
00:34:30,869 --> 00:34:32,404
of another school for fighting.

836
00:34:32,438 --> 00:34:34,673
So just letting them talk
about Stevie that way,

837
00:34:34,706 --> 00:34:36,208
that's the right thing to do?

838
00:34:36,242 --> 00:34:38,477
Jace,
every group you're ever gonna be in

839
00:34:38,510 --> 00:34:40,646
is gonna have at least one jerk.

840
00:34:40,679 --> 00:34:44,183
And you're gonna have to learn
how to deal with them, okay?

841
00:34:44,216 --> 00:34:48,554
Not by quitting and definitely
not by beating anybody up.

842
00:34:48,587 --> 00:34:50,556
Have a burrito.

843
00:34:50,589 --> 00:34:52,758
Take it out on the other team.

844
00:34:55,694 --> 00:34:57,296
I'm sure I'm just
being overly cautious,

845
00:34:57,329 --> 00:34:58,440
with all the breaches
that have been happening.

846
00:34:58,464 --> 00:34:59,765
Oh, no.

847
00:34:59,798 --> 00:35:03,169
We like overly cautious. Uh,
where's the zombie file?

848
00:35:03,202 --> 00:35:04,703
Uh, right here.

849
00:35:04,736 --> 00:35:06,438
I've put it in the trash,
like, ten times,

850
00:35:06,472 --> 00:35:08,707
but every time I open
the application... Right.

851
00:35:08,740 --> 00:35:11,577
So, what we're gonna do is
we're gonna create a ghost file.

852
00:35:11,610 --> 00:35:13,579
Hmm. A "ghost file."

853
00:35:13,612 --> 00:35:15,247
It's kind of surprising...

854
00:35:15,281 --> 00:35:17,516
The press coordinator
of the State Department

855
00:35:17,549 --> 00:35:19,427
doesn't know how to
delete a file from the cloud.

856
00:35:19,451 --> 00:35:21,553
I-I probably could
have figured it out,

857
00:35:21,587 --> 00:35:24,790
but I've been really busy. No,
it's cool.

858
00:35:24,823 --> 00:35:28,294
I mean, yeah,
I'll go out with you.

859
00:35:28,327 --> 00:35:31,197
(chuckling): Um... No,
we can go to lunch right now. I've been

860
00:35:31,230 --> 00:35:33,465
working on this awesome
new encryption software,

861
00:35:33,499 --> 00:35:36,535
and I promise to only talk
about it for ten minutes tops.

862
00:35:36,568 --> 00:35:38,670
I think I could be free.

863
00:35:38,704 --> 00:35:41,407
Cool. Shall we?

864
00:35:44,410 --> 00:35:47,713
Just so you know,
I knew how to do that.

865
00:35:47,746 --> 00:35:49,815
God, I hope so.

866
00:35:51,983 --> 00:35:53,118
Look who's first to school.

867
00:35:53,151 --> 00:35:57,189
Um, Lucy let me in. I hope that's okay,
Mr. President.

868
00:35:57,223 --> 00:35:59,425
So what's this proposal?

869
00:35:59,458 --> 00:36:02,561
Yeah. Um...

870
00:36:02,594 --> 00:36:06,398
So, in going over the proposed
budget for Craig's military

871
00:36:06,432 --> 00:36:08,467
transformation initiative,

872
00:36:08,500 --> 00:36:11,270
I, uh, saw an opportunity

873
00:36:11,303 --> 00:36:14,540
where I thought State might
be able to contribute, using

874
00:36:14,573 --> 00:36:16,975
our diplomatic
relations with Nepal.

875
00:36:17,008 --> 00:36:18,977
I proposed to
their prime minister

876
00:36:19,010 --> 00:36:21,280
the idea of an observatory

877
00:36:21,313 --> 00:36:23,515
in the Himalayas. It is

878
00:36:23,549 --> 00:36:25,417
a highly strategic
spot for optical,

879
00:36:25,451 --> 00:36:27,553
infrared,
and gamma ray observation.

880
00:36:27,586 --> 00:36:30,556
It's strategic, all right. It's
right on the border of China.

881
00:36:30,589 --> 00:36:32,424
Which is why Nepal
will never sign off on it.

882
00:36:32,458 --> 00:36:33,935
They've got a
relationship to protect.

883
00:36:33,959 --> 00:36:37,496
They also have needs in
the wake of the earthquakes.

884
00:36:37,529 --> 00:36:39,565
I've gotten word back
from the prime minister

885
00:36:39,598 --> 00:36:41,233
that he's open to the idea,

886
00:36:41,267 --> 00:36:44,603
provided we pay a yearly
fee for use of the land, roughly

887
00:36:44,636 --> 00:36:46,605
the same amount we
were hoping to approve

888
00:36:46,638 --> 00:36:48,307
in the disaster relief bill.

889
00:36:48,340 --> 00:36:52,511
The question,
of course, is... budget.

890
00:36:52,544 --> 00:36:53,845
(clears throat)

891
00:36:53,879 --> 00:36:56,648
One... Just one second. Um,

892
00:36:56,682 --> 00:37:01,753
for the cost of ten Joint
Light Tactical Vehicles,

893
00:37:01,787 --> 00:37:04,031
we could invest in the peaceful
observation of the heavens

894
00:37:04,055 --> 00:37:05,791
with three new telescopes

895
00:37:05,824 --> 00:37:09,261
and also answer China's
encroachment at the Arctic

896
00:37:09,295 --> 00:37:11,630
with a message of our own.

897
00:37:11,663 --> 00:37:13,665
Ten JLTVs, huh? Yeah.

898
00:37:13,699 --> 00:37:16,468
The budget calls for 400.

899
00:37:16,502 --> 00:37:19,438
I think 390 should do it.

900
00:37:19,471 --> 00:37:20,906
What do you think, Craig?

901
00:37:20,939 --> 00:37:22,708
Well, it's strategic,

902
00:37:22,741 --> 00:37:24,643
it sends a message to China,

903
00:37:24,676 --> 00:37:26,512
and it's cheap.

904
00:37:26,545 --> 00:37:29,415
What's not to like?

905
00:37:30,649 --> 00:37:32,551
Reach out to NASA.

906
00:37:32,584 --> 00:37:33,619
Get it in motion.

907
00:37:33,652 --> 00:37:35,454
Absolutely, Mr. President.

908
00:37:35,487 --> 00:37:38,624
And, Elizabeth, if I could,
uh, get a moment.

909
00:37:41,460 --> 00:37:44,296
Mr. President,
I am sorry about my behavior

910
00:37:44,330 --> 00:37:46,798
last night. It was
totally inappropriate.

911
00:37:46,832 --> 00:37:51,503
Lucy, could you have,
uh, Henry come in?

912
00:37:53,505 --> 00:37:55,674
Hello, Conrad.

913
00:37:55,707 --> 00:37:57,543
Hi there.

914
00:37:57,576 --> 00:38:00,045
I wanted to tell you both
that there was a breakthrough

915
00:38:00,078 --> 00:38:01,780
in this photo situation.

916
00:38:01,813 --> 00:38:04,783
The query letter was traced back
to a former Secret Service agent

917
00:38:04,816 --> 00:38:07,052
who was released
from duty last month.

918
00:38:07,085 --> 00:38:10,789
Seems this was his, uh,
way to even the score.

919
00:38:10,822 --> 00:38:13,625
So that's it? The
photos are contained?

920
00:38:13,659 --> 00:38:15,961
We've stopped the
sale of the photos,

921
00:38:15,994 --> 00:38:18,664
and the guy is being held at a
local precinct for questioning.

922
00:38:18,697 --> 00:38:20,532
But we're sure
they're gone for good?

923
00:38:20,566 --> 00:38:23,369
As sure as we can be.

924
00:38:23,402 --> 00:38:26,071
I owe you both an apology.

925
00:38:26,104 --> 00:38:28,674
I don't think this
situation brought out

926
00:38:28,707 --> 00:38:30,876
the best in a lot of us.

927
00:38:30,909 --> 00:38:33,545
I'm sorry for the
way we handled it.

928
00:38:33,579 --> 00:38:35,614
Thanks, Conrad.

929
00:38:35,647 --> 00:38:37,549
May I make a request?

930
00:38:37,583 --> 00:38:38,417
What is it?

931
00:38:38,450 --> 00:38:41,487
Before you finish
questioning this guy,

932
00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:44,723
15 minutes alone with him,
off the radar.

933
00:38:45,757 --> 00:38:48,026
You got it.

934
00:38:52,564 --> 00:38:55,867
Well, that was very Godfather.

935
00:38:55,901 --> 00:38:58,937
We thinking piano
wire or bare hands?

936
00:38:58,970 --> 00:39:02,073
I haven't decided yet.

937
00:39:02,107 --> 00:39:05,611
Is it wrong that I
find it kind of hot?

938
00:39:05,644 --> 00:39:08,380
Don't answer that.

939
00:39:10,181 --> 00:39:12,584
(chuckles)

940
00:39:34,773 --> 00:39:36,775
You good?

941
00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:56,795
I'm Stephanie.

942
00:39:56,828 --> 00:39:59,164
I'm Ronald Watson.

943
00:40:00,231 --> 00:40:03,201
I don't really know what to say.

944
00:40:03,234 --> 00:40:05,103
I've been having a bad time.

945
00:40:05,136 --> 00:40:07,506
But that's-that's not an excuse.

946
00:40:07,539 --> 00:40:09,508
I heard about your misdemeanor.

947
00:40:09,541 --> 00:40:12,511
I was kind of surprised

948
00:40:12,544 --> 00:40:15,046
that's all you got, actually.

949
00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:17,115
And a fine.

950
00:40:17,148 --> 00:40:20,652
Oh. And a fine.

951
00:40:20,686 --> 00:40:22,554
How much?

952
00:40:22,588 --> 00:40:23,955
$500.

953
00:40:23,989 --> 00:40:26,958
(scoffs)

954
00:40:26,992 --> 00:40:30,596
So that's like, what,
half a month's

955
00:40:30,629 --> 00:40:35,467
rent? Or... a new camera?

956
00:40:35,501 --> 00:40:37,503
You could have taken
your own pictures.

957
00:40:38,537 --> 00:40:40,071
I didn't mean to hurt you.

958
00:40:42,774 --> 00:40:45,744
(sighs) So did you
not think about that

959
00:40:45,777 --> 00:40:49,047
when you were trying to sell
my privacy to the highest bidder?

960
00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:51,449
Was I just... not real to you?

961
00:40:56,822 --> 00:40:57,923
Elizabeth.

962
00:40:57,956 --> 00:41:00,992
Here we go.

963
00:41:01,026 --> 00:41:02,528
Craig.

964
00:41:02,561 --> 00:41:05,230
I wanted to thank you
for that proposal on Nepal.

965
00:41:05,263 --> 00:41:07,899
Oh,
good. I'm glad it found your support.

966
00:41:07,933 --> 00:41:10,602
It's exactly the way we
need to be moving forward.

967
00:41:10,636 --> 00:41:12,079
I'm so glad we're
finally finding a way

968
00:41:12,103 --> 00:41:14,973
to work on the same team. Thanks,
Craig. Me, too.

969
00:41:16,041 --> 00:41:19,010
Which is why I don't
ever want to hear you say

970
00:41:19,044 --> 00:41:21,246
it's not my turn again.

971
00:41:22,681 --> 00:41:24,683
We should grab that lunch,
though.

972
00:41:25,717 --> 00:41:27,285
Absolutely.

973
00:41:27,318 --> 00:41:29,154
Mr. Sterling,
that meeting's in ten minutes.

974
00:41:29,187 --> 00:41:30,556
RONALD: I was mad.

975
00:41:30,589 --> 00:41:32,691
About other things.

976
00:41:32,724 --> 00:41:34,693
Again, it's not an excuse.

977
00:41:34,726 --> 00:41:35,966
I heard that you lost your job.

978
00:41:37,062 --> 00:41:40,298
They said that I was
intoxicated on duty.

979
00:41:40,331 --> 00:41:42,200
But I wasn't. I
would never do that.

980
00:41:42,233 --> 00:41:45,737
I've worked for
three presidents.

981
00:41:46,772 --> 00:41:49,274
Must be hard on your family.

982
00:41:49,307 --> 00:41:52,878
My son's out of the house.

983
00:41:52,911 --> 00:41:54,880
So it's just me now.

984
00:41:56,882 --> 00:41:59,017
How old is he?

985
00:41:59,050 --> 00:42:00,118
He's 20.

986
00:42:00,151 --> 00:42:01,587
Is he in school?

987
00:42:01,620 --> 00:42:05,857
Taking some... time
off for the moment.

988
00:42:05,891 --> 00:42:08,794
Look,
I don't know what exactly you want from me.

989
00:42:09,928 --> 00:42:12,898
I don't want anything, Ronald.

990
00:42:12,931 --> 00:42:14,933
We're just talking.

991
00:42:16,034 --> 00:42:19,938
I just wanted to get to
know you as a person.

992
00:42:19,971 --> 00:42:25,677
So I wouldn't... reduce you

993
00:42:25,711 --> 00:42:29,981
to one stupid
thing that you did.

994
00:42:32,083 --> 00:42:35,086
See how that works?

995
00:42:47,098 --> 00:42:49,100
Hey. Hey.

996
00:42:50,902 --> 00:42:53,338
You okay?

997
00:42:53,371 --> 00:42:55,340
Yeah.

998
00:42:55,373 --> 00:42:57,575
I am.
