1
00:00:07,833 --> 00:00:09,159
ELIZABETH: Well,
maybe she got lost.

2
00:00:09,183 --> 00:00:11,054
She didn't.

3
00:00:11,098 --> 00:00:12,229
Says you, Magellan.

4
00:00:12,273 --> 00:00:14,405
Six floors, 132 rooms,

5
00:00:14,449 --> 00:00:15,841
412 doors.

6
00:00:15,885 --> 00:00:17,495
And one prodigal
daughter returns.

7
00:00:17,539 --> 00:00:19,410
Hi! Sorry I'm late.Hi. Hi.

8
00:00:19,454 --> 00:00:21,021
Yes. This place is
like Hearst Castle.

9
00:00:21,064 --> 00:00:22,239
See? And I can't stay.

10
00:00:22,283 --> 00:00:23,806
What? What?

11
00:00:23,849 --> 00:00:26,156
Stevie, you promised that you
would have dinner with us.

12
00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:27,375
I mean, look.

13
00:00:27,418 --> 00:00:29,290
You are not going
to eat and run.

14
00:00:29,333 --> 00:00:31,074
I'm gonna run and eat.
I'm sorry.

15
00:00:31,118 --> 00:00:34,077
We are under water at the Human
Amnesty Association. I mean,

16
00:00:34,121 --> 00:00:36,297
you probably know.
There are beheadings in Riyadh

17
00:00:36,340 --> 00:00:38,081
and political
prisoners in Myanmar.

18
00:00:38,125 --> 00:00:40,170
Versus parents who don't
get to see their daughter

19
00:00:40,214 --> 00:00:41,258
at Pennsylvania Avenue,

20
00:00:41,302 --> 00:00:42,694
it's just... Ouch.

21
00:00:42,738 --> 00:00:44,479
Look, next time, I promise,

22
00:00:44,522 --> 00:00:46,394
I will clear the decks.Fine.

23
00:00:46,437 --> 00:00:48,309
The NIH is cloning
you as we speak.

24
00:00:48,352 --> 00:00:49,745
Your father and I
are having brunch

25
00:00:49,788 --> 00:00:51,114
with your doppelganger on
Sunday, so...

26
00:00:51,138 --> 00:00:52,878
Okay. Love you. Bye.[chuckles]

27
00:00:52,922 --> 00:00:54,184
Love you.Bye.

28
00:00:54,228 --> 00:00:56,404
[sighs]

29
00:00:58,014 --> 00:01:00,321
It's finally hitting me, Henry.

30
00:01:00,364 --> 00:01:02,323
We have an empty nest.

31
00:01:02,366 --> 00:01:05,108
Well, there's a remedy for that.

32
00:01:05,152 --> 00:01:06,588
Oh, no.

33
00:01:06,631 --> 00:01:08,242
Lady died, like, nine years ago.

34
00:01:08,285 --> 00:01:10,287
She was irreplaceable.

35
00:01:10,331 --> 00:01:11,549
Those floppy ears.

36
00:01:11,593 --> 00:01:12,724
[chuckles]

37
00:01:12,768 --> 00:01:14,291
She pooped on command.

38
00:01:14,335 --> 00:01:15,292
She did not.

39
00:01:15,336 --> 00:01:16,902
She did once.

40
00:01:16,946 --> 00:01:18,904
Look,
you can love more than one kid.

41
00:01:18,948 --> 00:01:20,471
You can love more than one dog.

42
00:01:20,515 --> 00:01:22,691
That is such a lousy analogy.

43
00:01:22,734 --> 00:01:23,692
Why?

44
00:01:23,735 --> 00:01:25,694
Because...

45
00:01:25,737 --> 00:01:27,478
I'm the president.

46
00:01:27,522 --> 00:01:29,219
[chuckles] And, clearly,

47
00:01:29,263 --> 00:01:31,091
the office has honed
your rhetorical skills.

48
00:01:31,134 --> 00:01:32,918
But by that logic,

49
00:01:32,962 --> 00:01:34,920
all the more reason.
People love this stuff.

50
00:01:34,964 --> 00:01:36,879
FDOTUS is a big deal.

51
00:01:36,922 --> 00:01:38,663
We are never calling it FDOTUS.

52
00:01:38,707 --> 00:01:40,507
It's our dog.
We can call it whatever we want.

53
00:01:40,535 --> 00:01:43,494
All right. But the search
has to be low-key, okay?

54
00:01:43,538 --> 00:01:45,322
This is a personal decision.

55
00:01:45,366 --> 00:01:47,324
I don't want some
kind of circus.

56
00:01:47,368 --> 00:01:50,153
MIKE: All dogs over
15 pounds have merit.

57
00:01:50,197 --> 00:01:52,329
But FDOTUS is America's pet.

58
00:01:52,373 --> 00:01:53,896
So let's look at the polling.

59
00:01:53,939 --> 00:01:56,333
What... polling?

60
00:01:56,377 --> 00:01:59,249
The polling that
says designer breeds

61
00:01:59,293 --> 00:02:01,251
paint you as an elitist,

62
00:02:01,295 --> 00:02:04,124
a perception sorely at odds with
the image that got you elected.

63
00:02:04,167 --> 00:02:05,168
So, nothing with "doodle"

64
00:02:05,212 --> 00:02:06,735
or "poo" in the name,

65
00:02:06,778 --> 00:02:09,216
or the villagers will be massing
at the gates with torches.

66
00:02:09,259 --> 00:02:11,305
Second no-bark zone's
working breeds.

67
00:02:11,348 --> 00:02:14,090
You can't be seen as
someone who condones

68
00:02:14,134 --> 00:02:15,763
the enslavement of another species.
MIKE: I don't.

69
00:02:15,787 --> 00:02:18,181
Mm.So service dogs
are off-limits.

70
00:02:18,225 --> 00:02:20,183
That puts the kibosh
on retrievers,

71
00:02:20,227 --> 00:02:22,359
Pomeranians, shepherds.

72
00:02:22,403 --> 00:02:23,360
Pomeranians?

73
00:02:23,404 --> 00:02:25,362
Who do they... service?

74
00:02:25,406 --> 00:02:26,363
The hard of hearing.

75
00:02:26,407 --> 00:02:27,538
They were bred to be yappy.

76
00:02:27,582 --> 00:02:29,192
Not even close to being true.

77
00:02:29,236 --> 00:02:30,672
I know it's a bit over-the-top.

78
00:02:30,715 --> 00:02:33,327
But getting this right matters.

79
00:02:33,370 --> 00:02:35,024
If there were no Checkers,

80
00:02:35,067 --> 00:02:36,852
there never would
have been a Nixon.

81
00:02:36,895 --> 00:02:39,420
Well, that's actually an
argument for notgetting a dog.

82
00:02:39,463 --> 00:02:42,031
MIKE: Or choosing the right one.

83
00:02:42,074 --> 00:02:44,425
We boiled 190 breeds
down to two choices.

84
00:02:44,468 --> 00:02:45,600
Middlebrow.

85
00:02:45,643 --> 00:02:46,818
Gender...

86
00:02:46,862 --> 00:02:50,344
neutral but sprightly.

87
00:02:50,387 --> 00:02:51,345
You're welcome.

88
00:02:51,388 --> 00:02:53,477
A beagle or a cocker spaniel?

89
00:02:53,521 --> 00:02:55,262
The data has spoken.
Th-This is a puppy,

90
00:02:55,305 --> 00:02:57,699
not a moon landing.

91
00:02:57,742 --> 00:02:59,266
Lady was a bullmastiff.

92
00:02:59,309 --> 00:03:00,615
That's what I want.

93
00:03:00,658 --> 00:03:02,878
I don't...
NINA: Excuse me, Madam President,

94
00:03:02,921 --> 00:03:05,097
Mr. Jackson,
you're needed in the Sit Room.

95
00:03:05,141 --> 00:03:07,230
Ephraim, what's going on?

96
00:03:07,274 --> 00:03:09,841
Ma'am, satellite imaging
has just confirmed

97
00:03:09,885 --> 00:03:11,843
that Laszlo Galassy,

98
00:03:11,887 --> 00:03:14,411
the leader of the Knights
of Western Freedom

99
00:03:14,455 --> 00:03:16,979
has been located in Caucasia.

100
00:03:17,022 --> 00:03:18,023
And we're sure it's him?

101
00:03:18,067 --> 00:03:19,111
Yes, ma'am.

102
00:03:19,155 --> 00:03:20,678
The mastermind behind the murder

103
00:03:20,722 --> 00:03:24,204
of the entire UN Security
Council, including.

104
00:03:24,247 --> 00:03:25,727
Ambassador Peter Harriman.

105
00:03:25,770 --> 00:03:27,555
So, after nearly two
years of cat and mouse,

106
00:03:27,598 --> 00:03:29,165
we finally have a bead on him.

107
00:03:29,209 --> 00:03:30,601
WARE: For the moment, yes.

108
00:03:30,645 --> 00:03:34,518
[exhales] Galassy is
holed up in a cave complex

109
00:03:34,562 --> 00:03:37,173
in the Caucasus Mountains.

110
00:03:37,217 --> 00:03:40,524
A semiautonomous state
called South Ossetia.

111
00:03:40,568 --> 00:03:43,397
Lawless? THOMPSON: Lawless enough
that we don't need permission

112
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:45,747
if we want to target him.

113
00:03:45,790 --> 00:03:47,488
What are our options?
HILL: The fail-safe

114
00:03:47,531 --> 00:03:49,446
is a laser-guided GBU.

115
00:03:49,490 --> 00:03:50,752
A bunker buster.

116
00:03:50,795 --> 00:03:52,188
Downside?

117
00:03:52,232 --> 00:03:54,408
The large blast
radius will result

118
00:03:54,451 --> 00:03:56,018
in substantial
civilian casualties.

119
00:03:56,061 --> 00:03:59,369
PARKER: A more surgical
option is to send in.

120
00:03:59,413 --> 00:04:00,457
Seal Team Nine.

121
00:04:00,501 --> 00:04:01,719
We should expect

122
00:04:01,763 --> 00:04:03,349
up to half a dozen
casualties on our end.

123
00:04:03,373 --> 00:04:06,246
American military dead abroad.

124
00:04:06,289 --> 00:04:07,310
Not very appealing either.

125
00:04:07,334 --> 00:04:08,509
HILL: There is another way.

126
00:04:08,552 --> 00:04:11,294
Fully autonomous
unmanned ground vehicles.

127
00:04:11,338 --> 00:04:14,079
You mean killer robots.

128
00:04:14,123 --> 00:04:16,647
Not the preferred
nomenclature, but yes.

129
00:04:16,691 --> 00:04:18,495
I actually didn't think
that technology was close

130
00:04:18,519 --> 00:04:20,085
to being operational.

131
00:04:20,129 --> 00:04:22,131
HILL: We caught a break.
Fossor Industries

132
00:04:22,174 --> 00:04:24,873
is beta testing
its autonomous UGVs

133
00:04:24,916 --> 00:04:27,441
at Vaziani base outside Tbilisi.

134
00:04:27,484 --> 00:04:29,965
This is a computer simulation.

135
00:04:30,008 --> 00:04:33,316
The UGVs will enter
the cave here.

136
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:35,536
They'll acquire their
targets using lasers

137
00:04:35,579 --> 00:04:37,451
and infrared technology,

138
00:04:37,494 --> 00:04:39,148
suppress resistance,

139
00:04:39,191 --> 00:04:40,889
then identify the weakest part

140
00:04:40,932 --> 00:04:42,456
of the cave structure
and bring it down

141
00:04:42,499 --> 00:04:43,544
on the remaining hostiles.

142
00:04:43,587 --> 00:04:46,460
What about remotely
operated UGVs?

143
00:04:46,503 --> 00:04:48,853
So that we can maintain
human oversight.

144
00:04:48,897 --> 00:04:50,290
Not an option, Madam President.

145
00:04:50,333 --> 00:04:52,466
The cave walls will
obstruct our comms.

146
00:04:52,509 --> 00:04:55,730
Our intel suggests Russia
hasn't taken steps to...

147
00:04:55,773 --> 00:04:57,558
get involved yet.

148
00:04:57,601 --> 00:04:59,647
But that could change.
Moscow won't like us

149
00:04:59,690 --> 00:05:01,344
in their sphere of influence.

150
00:05:01,388 --> 00:05:03,868
And once Russian
troops are on-site,

151
00:05:03,912 --> 00:05:05,435
we're looking at a
military conflict.

152
00:05:05,479 --> 00:05:07,698
How soon could Russia
have a unit in place?

153
00:05:07,742 --> 00:05:09,004
HILL: Terrain's remote.

154
00:05:09,047 --> 00:05:10,397
Even if Moscow mobilizes now,

155
00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:11,746
not before morning,

156
00:05:11,789 --> 00:05:13,400
meaning we have
a 24-hour window.

157
00:05:13,443 --> 00:05:15,576
ELIZABETH: And our options are

158
00:05:15,619 --> 00:05:16,925
civilian casualties,

159
00:05:16,968 --> 00:05:18,187
dead SEALs

160
00:05:18,230 --> 00:05:19,841
or an untested technology

161
00:05:19,884 --> 00:05:23,279
with dangerous
implications for humanity.

162
00:05:23,323 --> 00:05:24,889
Yes, ma'am.

163
00:05:27,588 --> 00:05:30,286
HANSON: Mr. Moran, did you take
leave of the campaign to attend

164
00:05:30,330 --> 00:05:33,463
your parents' 40th anniversary
party in Martha's Vineyard

165
00:05:33,507 --> 00:05:36,292
with Ms.
McCord's eldest daughter? Yes.

166
00:05:36,336 --> 00:05:37,859
And no finance laws were broken,

167
00:05:37,902 --> 00:05:39,489
Senator Hanson.
Then why did the campaign

168
00:05:39,513 --> 00:05:42,472
belatedly reimburse a
donor for your free flight

169
00:05:42,516 --> 00:05:43,995
to the Vineyard?

170
00:05:44,039 --> 00:05:46,389
Senator, this line of
inquiry is well beyond

171
00:05:46,433 --> 00:05:48,391
the Senate Intelligence
Committee's charter

172
00:05:48,435 --> 00:05:52,003
of investigating Iran's meddling
in our presidential election.

173
00:05:52,047 --> 00:05:53,657
The committee's
charter, Counselor,

174
00:05:53,701 --> 00:05:56,443
also entails anything arising
out of that investigation,

175
00:05:56,486 --> 00:05:57,835
which you know,

176
00:05:57,879 --> 00:06:00,142
as Mr. Moran was obviously
prepped for this question.

177
00:06:00,185 --> 00:06:02,187
OLIVIA: A question I
will allow him to answer,

178
00:06:02,231 --> 00:06:04,494
provided he can give
the proper context.

179
00:06:04,538 --> 00:06:06,801
By all means.

180
00:06:06,844 --> 00:06:08,542
We have to go back to...

181
00:06:08,585 --> 00:06:11,414
my on-again,
off-again boyfriend, Trevor.

182
00:06:11,458 --> 00:06:13,460
Things were very much on again.

183
00:06:13,503 --> 00:06:15,636
Wow. [chuckles][chuckles]

184
00:06:15,679 --> 00:06:16,811
Petite Auberge? Well...

185
00:06:16,854 --> 00:06:18,508
Kennedy Center?

186
00:06:18,552 --> 00:06:20,660
If I didn't know you better,
I'd think you were up to something.

187
00:06:20,684 --> 00:06:22,425
Uh, look, Trevor,

188
00:06:22,469 --> 00:06:24,098
we've been in each other's
lives for a long time.

189
00:06:24,122 --> 00:06:25,646
A decade is long, yes.

190
00:06:25,689 --> 00:06:27,735
And these last seven
months have been really...

191
00:06:27,778 --> 00:06:28,736
meaningful.

192
00:06:28,779 --> 00:06:31,173
Meaningful enough to...

193
00:06:31,216 --> 00:06:33,349
I'm sorry. I'm nervous.
I want to get this right.

194
00:06:33,393 --> 00:06:36,396
Hey. Blake,

195
00:06:36,439 --> 00:06:38,789
this is something I've
wanted for a long time.

196
00:06:38,833 --> 00:06:40,312
Good. [chuckles]

197
00:06:40,356 --> 00:06:42,663
Then you agree you
should move in.

198
00:06:42,706 --> 00:06:44,578
Oh. You...

199
00:06:44,621 --> 00:06:46,841
You just want me to move in?

200
00:06:46,884 --> 00:06:48,451
Yeah.

201
00:06:48,495 --> 00:06:50,584
Ah.And, look,
I made a spreadsheet.

202
00:06:50,627 --> 00:06:51,976
Um, housing costs,
transportation.

203
00:06:52,020 --> 00:06:53,650
You're in finance.
I know that you will see

204
00:06:53,674 --> 00:06:56,328
that the economies of scale
are too great to pass up.

205
00:06:56,372 --> 00:06:58,243
I, uh...

206
00:06:58,287 --> 00:06:59,419
[chuckles]: Wow.

207
00:06:59,462 --> 00:07:01,551
I don't know what to say.

208
00:07:01,595 --> 00:07:03,727
Well, there's no rush.
I mean, you know, take it home,

209
00:07:03,771 --> 00:07:05,183
crunch the numbers,
do your due diligence...

210
00:07:05,207 --> 00:07:06,469
No, uh, I do know what to say.

211
00:07:06,513 --> 00:07:07,992
Um...

212
00:07:08,036 --> 00:07:10,255
I guess I was just hoping,

213
00:07:10,299 --> 00:07:11,822
after all this time,

214
00:07:11,866 --> 00:07:15,522
for something more than an
appeal to economies of scale.

215
00:07:15,565 --> 00:07:16,958
Oh, no, it's not just that.

216
00:07:17,001 --> 00:07:18,718
I mean, we're great together.
We have fun. Yeah.

217
00:07:18,742 --> 00:07:20,396
We like the same...

218
00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:21,721
movies and...
[chuckles] [chuckles]

219
00:07:21,745 --> 00:07:23,399
Beverages.

220
00:07:23,443 --> 00:07:25,314
Beverages?

221
00:07:25,357 --> 00:07:26,402
I'm bad at this.

222
00:07:26,446 --> 00:07:28,535
You know what, you're right.

223
00:07:28,578 --> 00:07:31,276
I do need some time
to think about this.

224
00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:32,626
Time alone.

225
00:07:32,669 --> 00:07:33,844
Wait, wait, why?

226
00:07:33,888 --> 00:07:35,387
Because if it took you
this long to come up

227
00:07:35,411 --> 00:07:37,500
with an economic reason to
cohabitate, then we are

228
00:07:37,544 --> 00:07:39,720
miles from an emotional reason

229
00:07:39,763 --> 00:07:41,548
to do something more...

230
00:07:41,591 --> 00:07:42,940
What's your word?

231
00:07:42,984 --> 00:07:44,725
Meaningful.

232
00:07:44,768 --> 00:07:46,117
Trevor... Like get married.

233
00:07:48,990 --> 00:07:50,557
You can't even say it.

234
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:53,124
I can so say it. It's not...
No, just let it go.

235
00:07:54,822 --> 00:07:57,868
[chuckles]

236
00:07:57,912 --> 00:07:59,957
I will let you know
how the thinking goes.

237
00:08:00,001 --> 00:08:01,568
Wait a minute.
Wait, you can't do this.

238
00:08:01,611 --> 00:08:03,892
We're going to the Vineyard
this weekend to meet my folks.

239
00:08:04,005 --> 00:08:06,398
I don't think
that's a good idea.

240
00:08:06,442 --> 00:08:08,662
They're dying to meet you.
Trevor.

241
00:08:08,705 --> 00:08:10,751
I was distraught.

242
00:08:10,794 --> 00:08:12,274
Trevor meant the world to me.

243
00:08:12,317 --> 00:08:14,842
But did I really want to...
marry him?

244
00:08:14,885 --> 00:08:16,472
Mr. Moran...
I mean, I knew we were compatible.

245
00:08:16,496 --> 00:08:18,585
But marriage is, like, forever.

246
00:08:18,628 --> 00:08:20,563
And... [stammers] I mean,
not that I'm a commitment-phobe.

247
00:08:20,587 --> 00:08:22,608
See, I'm a Gemini, and I think that...
Sir, this committee is

248
00:08:22,632 --> 00:08:24,808
uninterested in your
romantic misadventures.

249
00:08:24,852 --> 00:08:25,983
OLIVIA: Senator,

250
00:08:26,027 --> 00:08:28,464
if you insist on a
fishing expedition,

251
00:08:28,508 --> 00:08:30,858
the witness is entitled
to describe the pond.

252
00:08:30,901 --> 00:08:32,860
HANSON: Get on with
it, Mr. Moran.

253
00:08:32,903 --> 00:08:34,707
I'm so sorry. I wanted to
be there more than anything,

254
00:08:34,731 --> 00:08:37,212
but this fund-raiser in
Cupertino was delayed,

255
00:08:37,255 --> 00:08:38,615
and I-I missed the
last flight out.

256
00:08:38,648 --> 00:08:40,215
Well, so,
head out in the morning.

257
00:08:40,258 --> 00:08:41,651
I would, but there are

258
00:08:41,695 --> 00:08:42,933
no direct flights.
I'd be so late.

259
00:08:42,957 --> 00:08:44,436
FRED: Really disappointing.

260
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:46,371
EDIE: Especially since we
were so looking forward

261
00:08:46,395 --> 00:08:48,745
to finally meeting
your mystery partner.

262
00:08:48,789 --> 00:08:51,095
We don't even know this
special someone's gender.

263
00:08:51,139 --> 00:08:52,203
Not that it matters.[chuckles]

264
00:08:52,227 --> 00:08:53,794
We're going to love them.

265
00:08:53,837 --> 00:08:55,622
You notice I said "them,"
even though that's

266
00:08:55,665 --> 00:08:58,015
grammatically incorrect
for our generation.

267
00:08:58,059 --> 00:09:00,124
You're getting off point, dear.
[chuckles]BLAKE: Don't worry.

268
00:09:00,148 --> 00:09:01,584
We'll reschedule
another trip ASAP.

269
00:09:01,628 --> 00:09:03,606
And I'm sending you the best
red zin you've ever had.

270
00:09:03,630 --> 00:09:05,762
Shelton's coming.
He has a Cessna.

271
00:09:05,806 --> 00:09:07,851
That is a great idea.

272
00:09:07,895 --> 00:09:10,114
Sorry, uh, who's Shelton?

273
00:09:10,158 --> 00:09:12,223
Shelton Anderson. He's a friend of ours.
He lives in Menlo Park.

274
00:09:12,247 --> 00:09:14,771
He's flying out tomorrow.
You can hitch a ride.

275
00:09:14,815 --> 00:09:16,662
What? No, no, no, no.
That'd be a huge inconvenience.

276
00:09:16,686 --> 00:09:17,644
FRED: Nonsense!

277
00:09:17,687 --> 00:09:18,732
He'll be thrilled.

278
00:09:18,775 --> 00:09:20,603
We will set it up.

279
00:09:20,647 --> 00:09:22,387
We can't wait to
see you.[chuckles]

280
00:09:22,431 --> 00:09:24,128
And them. No, no, no. Mom...

281
00:09:24,172 --> 00:09:26,174
Hello?

282
00:09:27,784 --> 00:09:29,632
The secretary thanks you
for your continued support.

283
00:09:29,656 --> 00:09:30,894
It was lovely to meet you.
My pleasure.

284
00:09:30,918 --> 00:09:33,616
Hi. Hi. Stevie. Hi.What?

285
00:09:33,660 --> 00:09:37,620
Your emotional booty call buddy
could use a really big favor.

286
00:09:39,056 --> 00:09:41,711
We have an armed terrorist
bunkered in a cave.

287
00:09:41,755 --> 00:09:44,366
The only surefire way
to protect civilians

288
00:09:44,409 --> 00:09:46,760
and American lives
in this situation

289
00:09:46,803 --> 00:09:49,719
is with autonomous UGVs.

290
00:09:49,763 --> 00:09:51,895
A.I. can operate at a scale

291
00:09:51,939 --> 00:09:54,768
and speed far beyond
even the most capable

292
00:09:54,811 --> 00:09:56,900
trained human soldier.
It's a quantum leap forward.

293
00:09:56,944 --> 00:09:59,599
That's the problem, isn't it?

294
00:09:59,642 --> 00:10:01,644
Precipitous deployment
blows right past efforts

295
00:10:01,688 --> 00:10:03,254
to regulate a new technology.

296
00:10:03,298 --> 00:10:04,821
I thought I'd bring
President Dalton's

297
00:10:04,865 --> 00:10:07,650
former ethics advisor
in for a consultation.

298
00:10:07,694 --> 00:10:10,871
And we all welcome your
perspective, Henry.

299
00:10:10,914 --> 00:10:13,613
But operational imperatives
have to take precedence.

300
00:10:13,656 --> 00:10:16,267
We can worry about ethics later.
HENRY: Oh, come on, Ellen.

301
00:10:16,311 --> 00:10:19,053
History doesn't give us many
examples of that working out.

302
00:10:19,096 --> 00:10:20,054
Yeah, you can't

303
00:10:20,097 --> 00:10:21,664
put that genie
back in the bottle.

304
00:10:21,708 --> 00:10:22,859
It worked with nuclear bombs.

305
00:10:22,883 --> 00:10:25,189
They were deployed
in only one conflict.

306
00:10:25,233 --> 00:10:27,931
And kicked off an arms
race that cost trillions

307
00:10:27,975 --> 00:10:30,281
and made humanity less safe.

308
00:10:30,325 --> 00:10:33,850
Equating smart weapons
with a nuclear stockpile?

309
00:10:33,894 --> 00:10:35,828
At least, with nuclear weapons,
mutually assured destruction

310
00:10:35,852 --> 00:10:37,680
kept the Cold War cold.

311
00:10:37,724 --> 00:10:40,422
But can you imagine
a nuclear weapon

312
00:10:40,465 --> 00:10:43,991
under the control of an
algorithm with no humanity?

313
00:10:44,034 --> 00:10:47,429
A.I. lacks the human judgment
to be able to evaluate

314
00:10:47,472 --> 00:10:49,736
the proportionality
of an attack,

315
00:10:49,779 --> 00:10:51,955
to recognize when a
foe is surrendering.

316
00:10:51,999 --> 00:10:53,957
And human troops
lack the ability

317
00:10:54,001 --> 00:10:56,743
to assess threats
dispassionately.

318
00:10:56,786 --> 00:10:58,745
And unlike robots, they die.

319
00:10:58,788 --> 00:11:00,660
RUSSELL: Good point.
Except smart weapons

320
00:11:00,703 --> 00:11:02,313
aren't engineered
to preserve life,

321
00:11:02,357 --> 00:11:04,011
they're engineered to take it.

322
00:11:04,054 --> 00:11:05,882
That's what slaughterbots do.

323
00:11:05,926 --> 00:11:08,755
HILL: It's an intentionally term...
we're talking about

324
00:11:08,798 --> 00:11:11,192
microdrones surgically
dispatched to...

325
00:11:11,235 --> 00:11:13,194
to neutralize
high-value targets.

326
00:11:13,237 --> 00:11:14,717
Like political opponents?

327
00:11:14,761 --> 00:11:16,763
Journalists?
Entire civilian populations?

328
00:11:16,806 --> 00:11:18,765
Come on, Henry,
you're deliberately conjuring

329
00:11:18,808 --> 00:11:20,810
a dystopian nightmare.
Well, what would you call

330
00:11:20,854 --> 00:11:22,812
thousands of robots using

331
00:11:22,856 --> 00:11:25,859
facial recognition technology
to hunt down and kill

332
00:11:25,902 --> 00:11:27,967
human beings?
Same thing I'd call an aircraft carrier

333
00:11:27,991 --> 00:11:29,689
or a nuclear submarine...

334
00:11:29,732 --> 00:11:31,429
A deterrent. Plus,

335
00:11:31,473 --> 00:11:33,257
the only defense against a swarm

336
00:11:33,301 --> 00:11:35,651
of robots is a
more advanced swarm

337
00:11:35,695 --> 00:11:37,479
of robots, which is why

338
00:11:37,522 --> 00:11:39,742
we can't fall behind.
WARE: A.I. is the tool

339
00:11:39,786 --> 00:11:41,788
that makes the world safer

340
00:11:41,831 --> 00:11:45,356
by obviating the need for
conventional weapons or troops.

341
00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:47,271
SUSAN: That's not safety.
That is a new kind

342
00:11:47,315 --> 00:11:51,058
of danger, which is why
Pakistan, South America

343
00:11:51,101 --> 00:11:53,800
and most African
nations are already

344
00:11:53,843 --> 00:11:56,846
begging the U.N.
to stop this in its tracks.

345
00:11:56,890 --> 00:11:57,978
ELIZABETH: And...

346
00:11:58,021 --> 00:12:00,763
we can't assume that
only moral actors

347
00:12:00,807 --> 00:12:02,504
are going to have access

348
00:12:02,547 --> 00:12:03,897
to smart weapons.Exactly.

349
00:12:03,940 --> 00:12:06,813
Microdrones can be
cheaply mass-produced,

350
00:12:06,856 --> 00:12:09,032
outfitted with C-4, bioagents,

351
00:12:09,076 --> 00:12:12,079
and once they get into the wrong hands...
HENRY: Which they will,

352
00:12:12,122 --> 00:12:13,752
'cause they can be spoofed,
they can be hacked.

HILL: The technology

354

is inevitable.

355
00:12:16,518 --> 00:12:18,433
Which is why we
have the obligation

356
00:12:18,476 --> 00:12:20,914
to get there first. To make sure

357
00:12:20,957 --> 00:12:22,567
that we develop ethical versions

358
00:12:22,611 --> 00:12:24,918
before the unethical
versions come out.

359
00:12:24,961 --> 00:12:27,616
Ethical killer robots... really?

360
00:12:27,659 --> 00:12:29,879
WARE: All due respect to
the Cassandras among us,

361
00:12:29,923 --> 00:12:32,360
ma'am,
we're not talking about a...

362
00:12:32,403 --> 00:12:34,231
a drone army today.

363
00:12:34,275 --> 00:12:38,105
We're contemplating a
few autonomous weapons

364
00:12:38,148 --> 00:12:41,021
whose deployment will
spare American lives.

365
00:12:41,064 --> 00:12:43,806
It's never long before
"few" becomes "many."

366
00:12:43,850 --> 00:12:45,329
Susan, where are we

367
00:12:45,373 --> 00:12:46,591
on a smart weapons treaty?

368
00:12:46,635 --> 00:12:47,810
The same place we were

369
00:12:47,854 --> 00:12:49,769
in the Dalton administration...
With Russia

370
00:12:49,812 --> 00:12:52,902
and China dragging their feet.

371
00:12:52,946 --> 00:12:55,731
While they pour
billions into R&D.

372
00:12:55,775 --> 00:12:58,647
So an arms race among
the three superpowers...

373
00:12:58,690 --> 00:13:00,910
is already upon us,
whether we want it or not.

374
00:13:00,954 --> 00:13:03,086
And the thing about arms races

375
00:13:03,130 --> 00:13:05,915
is you want to win them.
HENRY: We've already outlawed

376
00:13:05,959 --> 00:13:07,917
chemical weapons,
lasers that blind,

377
00:13:07,961 --> 00:13:09,832
neutron bombs...

378
00:13:09,876 --> 00:13:12,704
Negotiating a ban takes time.

379
00:13:12,748 --> 00:13:14,924
Yeah, well, there's the
rub, Henry... time.

380
00:13:14,968 --> 00:13:17,884
If Fossor has perfected
this technology,

381
00:13:17,927 --> 00:13:20,582
how long before a Chinese
or Russian contractor does?

382
00:13:20,625 --> 00:13:22,845
HILL: And if Russia or
China beat us to the punch,

383
00:13:22,889 --> 00:13:24,934
we will never get
them to the table.

384
00:13:24,978 --> 00:13:26,980
This isn't just about
bringing to justice

As imperative as that goal is,

388

it's about protecting America

389

00:23:18,745 --> 00:23:21,356
did the secretary's daughter,
who joined her campaign

649
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:23,663
only a week earlier,
have a heart-to-heart

650
00:23:23,706 --> 00:23:25,684
with one of this country's
most important bundlers.

651
00:23:25,708 --> 00:23:27,754
They did have a heart-to-heart.

652
00:23:30,496 --> 00:23:31,932
I suspected as much.

653
00:23:31,975 --> 00:23:33,629
Continue.

654
00:23:33,673 --> 00:23:36,632
Third-party candidacies are
a colossal waste of time.

655
00:23:36,676 --> 00:23:38,765
Pointless spoilers.

656
00:23:38,808 --> 00:23:40,177
The historical
record is undeniable.

657
00:23:40,201 --> 00:23:41,855
Lincoln was a
third-party candidate.

658
00:23:41,898 --> 00:23:43,073
Yes, he was.

659
00:23:43,117 --> 00:23:44,727
And look what happened
to him.That's...

660
00:23:44,771 --> 00:23:47,077
[chuckling]: Excuse me?

661
00:23:47,121 --> 00:23:47,991
You love your mother.

662
00:23:48,035 --> 00:23:49,993
And, uh, that's endearing.

663
00:23:50,037 --> 00:23:51,908
But facts are facts, sweetheart.

664
00:23:51,952 --> 00:23:53,170
[chuckles]

665
00:23:53,214 --> 00:23:55,303
First of all,
I'm not your sweetheart.

666
00:23:55,346 --> 00:23:57,087
Easy. I didn't mean to...

667
00:23:57,131 --> 00:23:59,394
To what...
to traffic in stereotypes,

668
00:23:59,438 --> 00:24:01,962
like this country's not
ready for a female president?

669
00:24:02,005 --> 00:24:03,746
Or that women are unlikable.

670
00:24:03,790 --> 00:24:05,792
Or that my mom,
who was secretary of state

671
00:24:05,835 --> 00:24:07,750
for five years, and before that

672
00:24:07,794 --> 00:24:10,884
she was a-a top CIA operative,
all while raising three kids,

673
00:24:10,927 --> 00:24:12,320
but-but she...

674
00:24:12,363 --> 00:24:15,628
she just doesn't have the
energy for a man's job.

675
00:24:15,671 --> 00:24:17,804
No need to get bent out
of shape.Sure. Yeah.

676
00:24:17,847 --> 00:24:20,067
I mean. Implying that my
mother's gonna be assassinated.

677
00:24:20,110 --> 00:24:21,566
Why would that offend
me, Dessert's up.

678
00:24:21,590 --> 00:24:22,678
Do you think? I don't know.

679
00:24:24,811 --> 00:24:26,900
[chuckles]

680
00:24:31,295 --> 00:24:34,734
Good afternoon. Uh...

681
00:24:34,777 --> 00:24:37,650
thank you for agreeing
to meet with me.

682
00:24:37,693 --> 00:24:40,217
I can only imagine

683
00:24:40,261 --> 00:24:43,264
how difficult this
moment must be.

684
00:24:43,307 --> 00:24:45,832
I wanted

685
00:24:45,875 --> 00:24:48,269
to thank each of you, personally

686
00:24:48,312 --> 00:24:50,489
for your sacrifice.

687
00:24:55,581 --> 00:24:57,147
Tell me about your loved one.

688
00:24:57,191 --> 00:24:59,498
Lieutenant John Marshall.

689
00:25:02,326 --> 00:25:05,852
Thank you for your sacrifice, Mrs.
Marshall.

690
00:25:07,897 --> 00:25:09,420
And yours?

691
00:25:09,464 --> 00:25:12,249
My twin brother. Master at Arms.

692
00:25:12,293 --> 00:25:14,861
First Class, Danny Fitzpatrick.

693
00:25:14,904 --> 00:25:17,341
He was my best friend and
I still owed him 50 bucks.

694
00:25:17,385 --> 00:25:19,822
Thank you.

695
00:25:19,866 --> 00:25:21,998
My son.

696
00:25:22,042 --> 00:25:24,479
Chief Special Warfare Operator

697
00:25:24,523 --> 00:25:26,829
Oscar Diaz.

698
00:25:26,873 --> 00:25:28,657
He loved the Yankees.

699
00:25:28,701 --> 00:25:30,572
And the ladies.

700
00:25:30,616 --> 00:25:34,228
[chuckling]: He was learning
Swedish 'cause he said

701
00:25:34,271 --> 00:25:36,230
the girls over there were...

702
00:25:36,273 --> 00:25:40,190
amazing. [chuckles]

703
00:25:42,279 --> 00:25:43,803
I just wanted to say...

704
00:25:43,846 --> 00:25:46,457
Well, I wanted to assure you

705
00:25:46,501 --> 00:25:49,591
that their sacrifice
was not in vain.

706
00:25:49,635 --> 00:25:51,288
They were heroes,

707
00:25:51,332 --> 00:25:52,875
Madam President.
Wh-Why do you need to tell us

708
00:25:52,899 --> 00:25:54,465
they didn't die in vain?

709
00:25:54,509 --> 00:25:57,077
Because I know what's
being reported.

710
00:25:57,120 --> 00:25:58,557
That...

711
00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:01,298
smart weapons could
have spared them.

712
00:26:01,342 --> 00:26:03,518
MARSHALL: They weren't
trying to be spared.

713
00:26:03,562 --> 00:26:04,882
They were trying
to do their duty.

714
00:26:04,911 --> 00:26:05,975
It's what they signed up for.

715
00:26:05,999 --> 00:26:08,392
DIAZ: What they deserve

716
00:26:08,436 --> 00:26:10,264
is a president who
stands up publicly

717
00:26:10,307 --> 00:26:12,788
for their sacrifice.
FITZPATRICK: And doesn't apologize for it.

718
00:26:12,832 --> 00:26:13,789
ELIZABETH: I haven't. I...

719
00:26:13,833 --> 00:26:16,183
DIAZ: No, ma'am. Due respect.

720
00:26:16,226 --> 00:26:17,750
You've done something worse.

721
00:26:17,793 --> 00:26:20,143
You've stayed silent

722
00:26:20,187 --> 00:26:21,338
as your critics
have made it seem

723
00:26:21,362 --> 00:26:22,711
like this mission was a mistake.

724
00:26:22,755 --> 00:26:24,800
MARSHALL: But it
wasn't a mistake.

725
00:26:24,844 --> 00:26:26,889
An evil man was brought to
justice, right?

726
00:26:26,933 --> 00:26:28,325
[people murmuring in agreement]

727
00:26:28,369 --> 00:26:30,589
They did that.

728
00:26:30,632 --> 00:26:31,677
Yes, they did.

729
00:26:33,853 --> 00:26:37,073
I am so grateful
for your bravery,

730
00:26:37,117 --> 00:26:39,728
and the bravery of
your loved ones.

731
00:26:39,772 --> 00:26:42,513
Thank you.

732
00:26:42,557 --> 00:26:46,082
Absolute... Madam President.

733
00:26:46,126 --> 00:26:47,257
This is a surprise.

734
00:26:47,301 --> 00:26:48,868
We were expecting
Secretary Thompson.

735
00:26:48,911 --> 00:26:50,130
Well, I decided to step in.

736
00:26:50,173 --> 00:26:51,827
That's problematic.

737
00:26:51,871 --> 00:26:54,787
As you're aware,
there is a protocol we subvert

738
00:26:54,830 --> 00:26:56,919
by parleying directly with you.

739
00:26:56,963 --> 00:26:58,051
I know.

740
00:26:58,094 --> 00:27:00,880
I also know that even
with inducements,

741
00:27:00,923 --> 00:27:03,143
President Li and
President Salnikov

742
00:27:03,186 --> 00:27:05,232
would decline to discuss

743
00:27:05,275 --> 00:27:08,496
meaningful limits on
autonomous weapons.

744
00:27:08,539 --> 00:27:10,498
We're not authorized to...

745
00:27:10,541 --> 00:27:12,631
have this discussion...

746
00:27:12,674 --> 00:27:14,154
I just need you to listen

747
00:27:14,197 --> 00:27:15,938
and run my proposal
up the flag pole.

748
00:27:15,982 --> 00:27:17,940
Okay?

749
00:27:17,984 --> 00:27:21,030
What are the contours of the
agreement you are seeking?

750
00:27:21,074 --> 00:27:22,815
A complete and total ban.

751
00:27:22,858 --> 00:27:24,991
[laughing]

752
00:27:25,034 --> 00:27:28,255
There are strong
moral arguments here.

753
00:27:28,298 --> 00:27:30,692
But I do think that we likely

754
00:27:30,736 --> 00:27:32,825
will find more common ground
in the practicalities.

755
00:27:32,868 --> 00:27:35,784
We're all going to spend

756
00:27:35,828 --> 00:27:37,394
billions of dollars
on this arms race.

757
00:27:37,438 --> 00:27:39,353
Drive up our national debts,

758
00:27:39,396 --> 00:27:40,833
mortgage our children's futures.

759
00:27:40,876 --> 00:27:42,922
Forgive my cynicism,

760
00:27:42,965 --> 00:27:45,968
but this is a propitious
time for your government

761
00:27:46,012 --> 00:27:48,275
to push for such a
ban, isn't it?

762
00:27:48,318 --> 00:27:50,103
CHEN: Yes. Now that you've

763
00:27:50,146 --> 00:27:52,192
achieved operational capability,

764
00:27:52,235 --> 00:27:55,282
you're looking to lock in
your strategic advantage.

765
00:27:55,325 --> 00:27:57,719
Strategic advantage
i-is an illusion.

766
00:27:57,763 --> 00:27:59,678
If nuclear weapons
taught us anything,

767
00:27:59,721 --> 00:28:01,810
it's that no country
can win an arms race.

768
00:28:01,854 --> 00:28:05,814
I trust you both remember
the madness of that one.

769
00:28:05,858 --> 00:28:07,207
We see a U.S. president

770
00:28:07,250 --> 00:28:09,818
in domestic trouble,

771
00:28:09,862 --> 00:28:11,428
trying to use us

772
00:28:11,472 --> 00:28:13,213
to gain political capital.

773
00:28:13,256 --> 00:28:15,389
This is not about my presidency,

774
00:28:15,432 --> 00:28:17,391
for God's sake.

775
00:28:17,434 --> 00:28:19,959
Ming. Konstantin. Look, e-even

776
00:28:20,002 --> 00:28:22,831
if you like the idea
of autonomous weapons,

777
00:28:22,875 --> 00:28:25,616
what happens

778
00:28:25,660 --> 00:28:28,054
when a hacker encodes a virus

779
00:28:28,097 --> 00:28:29,272
to turn them on Beijing?

780
00:28:29,316 --> 00:28:31,492
Moscow, or Washington.

781
00:28:31,535 --> 00:28:34,713
The whole point of smart weapons

782
00:28:34,756 --> 00:28:37,846
is that we cede control.

783
00:28:37,890 --> 00:28:39,935
And if we cede control,

784
00:28:39,979 --> 00:28:41,676
they're our ticket to oblivion.

785
00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:43,591
An existential threat

786
00:28:43,634 --> 00:28:46,159
with no room for
error, no way back.

787
00:28:46,202 --> 00:28:48,944
But there is a way out,
if we work together.

788
00:28:48,988 --> 00:28:50,859
CHEN: And if we choose not

789
00:28:50,903 --> 00:28:52,905
to come to the table?
Well, I intend

790
00:28:52,948 --> 00:28:54,907
to give an address from
the Oval Office tonight.

791
00:28:54,950 --> 00:28:56,604
To announce what?

792
00:28:56,647 --> 00:28:59,563
Either that the three
superpowers have agreed

793
00:28:59,607 --> 00:29:02,392
on a comprehensive ban
on autonomous weapons

794
00:29:02,436 --> 00:29:05,700
or that my government
if plowing $30 billion

795
00:29:05,744 --> 00:29:07,746
in R&D to deploy them.

796
00:29:07,789 --> 00:29:09,965
You're bluffing. Your bosses

797
00:29:10,009 --> 00:29:12,141
have five hours to get
back to me with an answer.

798
00:29:19,583 --> 00:29:22,151
RUSSELL: An Oval Office address.

799
00:29:22,195 --> 00:29:25,459
It's bold. It's brave.

800
00:29:25,502 --> 00:29:26,895
You think it'll backfire.

801
00:29:26,939 --> 00:29:28,767
I think you seem to feel

802
00:29:28,810 --> 00:29:30,769
an overwhelming need to...

803
00:29:30,812 --> 00:29:32,596
explain yourself.

804
00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:34,033
Isn't that a president's job?

805
00:29:34,076 --> 00:29:36,383
A president's job is to lead,

806
00:29:36,426 --> 00:29:37,645
with strength.

807
00:29:37,688 --> 00:29:39,603
Not to appeal to be understood

808
00:29:39,647 --> 00:29:41,605
or-or supported.

809
00:29:41,649 --> 00:29:43,607
Well, you put it that way,

810
00:29:43,651 --> 00:29:45,261
feels like the old patriarchy

811
00:29:45,305 --> 00:29:48,003
telling me to do things the
way they've always been done.

812
00:29:48,047 --> 00:29:49,657
By men.

813
00:29:49,700 --> 00:29:51,615
I don't know how to communicate

814
00:29:51,659 --> 00:29:54,749
without you hearing
those things.

815
00:29:59,667 --> 00:30:01,930
Try advising me as a president

816
00:30:01,974 --> 00:30:03,236
and not as a woman.

817
00:30:03,279 --> 00:30:04,846
Point taken.

818
00:30:06,587 --> 00:30:08,632
I have a second
critique.[chuckles]

819
00:30:08,676 --> 00:30:10,939
Talking about smart weapons?

820
00:30:10,983 --> 00:30:13,899
Y-You are about
to scare the crap

821
00:30:13,942 --> 00:30:15,335
out of the American public.

822
00:30:15,378 --> 00:30:17,206
And presidents who do that...

823
00:30:17,250 --> 00:30:19,208
Typically... are not popular

824
00:30:19,252 --> 00:30:21,863
and are not effective.

825
00:30:21,907 --> 00:30:24,866
Russell, do you... do you agree

826
00:30:24,910 --> 00:30:28,391
that autonomous warfare poses

827
00:30:28,435 --> 00:30:29,784
a serious threat to humanity?

828
00:30:29,828 --> 00:30:31,177
Yes.

829
00:30:31,220 --> 00:30:34,006
And that it's a president's
job to concern herself

830
00:30:34,049 --> 00:30:35,834
with such things? Yes.

831
00:30:35,877 --> 00:30:37,226
Well, then, for today,

832
00:30:37,270 --> 00:30:39,228
I won't worry
about being popular

833
00:30:39,272 --> 00:30:41,143
or effective.

834
00:30:41,187 --> 00:30:42,797
I'll worry about
being presidential.

835
00:30:42,841 --> 00:30:44,843
[soft chuckle]

836
00:30:46,409 --> 00:30:47,933
I'll have drafts of, uh...

837
00:30:47,976 --> 00:30:50,849
two different speeches
for your review

838
00:30:50,892 --> 00:30:52,851
in the next 90 minutes.

839
00:30:54,548 --> 00:30:57,420
HANSON: It comes down to this, Mr. Moran.
Were you aware

840
00:30:57,464 --> 00:31:00,815
that two weeks after you met Mr. Anderson,
his PAC donated

841
00:31:00,859 --> 00:31:02,817
half a million
dollars to an outside

842
00:31:02,861 --> 00:31:04,340
dark money group

843
00:31:04,384 --> 00:31:06,908
supporting the secretary coast to coast?
Ye... Uh, yes.

844
00:31:06,952 --> 00:31:09,171
Everyone on the campaign was.
It was a big deal.

845
00:31:09,215 --> 00:31:11,565
And a mere two days
after that windfall,

846
00:31:11,608 --> 00:31:13,523
you and Stevie McCord
belatedly chose

847
00:31:13,567 --> 00:31:16,135
to reimburse Mr. Anderson
for use of his private plane.

848
00:31:16,178 --> 00:31:17,614
Right? That's correct.

849
00:31:17,658 --> 00:31:18,920
Why would you reimburse him

850
00:31:18,964 --> 00:31:20,313
if you're not soliciting him

851
00:31:20,356 --> 00:31:22,184
to donate to your candidate?
Because we wanted

852
00:31:22,228 --> 00:31:25,579
to avoid even the
appearance of impropriety.

853
00:31:25,622 --> 00:31:28,016
Because you knew it was an
in-kind campaign donation.

854
00:31:28,060 --> 00:31:29,365
That's not true.

855
00:31:29,409 --> 00:31:30,976
Which you only declared
after the target

856
00:31:31,019 --> 00:31:33,369
of your solicitation
cut you a check.

857
00:31:33,413 --> 00:31:36,546
Proof you were trying to
bypass campaign finance laws.

858
00:31:36,590 --> 00:31:38,548
That's also not true.

859
00:31:38,592 --> 00:31:39,898
Laws you also broke

860
00:31:39,941 --> 00:31:41,812
by illegally coordinating
with his PAC.

861
00:31:41,856 --> 00:31:42,988
Senator, you are free

862
00:31:43,031 --> 00:31:45,077
to refer these
matters to the FEC,

863
00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:47,818
but you have Mr. Moran's answer.

864
00:31:47,862 --> 00:31:49,702
HANSON: Yes.
And I need him to answer this, too.

865
00:31:49,733 --> 00:31:51,953
If the purpose of
your interactions

866
00:31:51,997 --> 00:31:54,956
with Mr. Anderson
was not fundraising,

867
00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:56,436
why did you send this text

868
00:31:56,479 --> 00:31:58,917
to the president's daughter
during your parents' party?

869
00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:01,223
And I quote: "You have
to butter up Shelton."

870
00:32:01,267 --> 00:32:04,139
Simple. He was our ride back.

871
00:32:04,183 --> 00:32:06,837
Hey. Would you please just apologize?
No. No! I will not.

872
00:32:06,881 --> 00:32:08,317
We have an event in L.A.
tomorrow.

873
00:32:08,361 --> 00:32:08,970
It's gonna be a long walk
from the vineyard. I hate

874
00:32:09,014 --> 00:32:10,667
this whole entitled

875
00:32:10,711 --> 00:32:11,930
crustacean-obsessed colony.

876
00:32:11,973 --> 00:32:13,932
I only came here because
it was a favor to you.

877
00:32:13,975 --> 00:32:15,716
How is making a scene a favor?

878
00:32:15,759 --> 00:32:18,719
STEVIE: I was defending my
mother, the person

879
00:32:18,762 --> 00:32:20,982
that you work for.
Remember, Blake?

880
00:32:21,026 --> 00:32:24,290
Ooh. What the hell is
going on with her? Yeah.

881
00:32:26,596 --> 00:32:28,555
We love her.

882
00:32:28,598 --> 00:32:30,035
[door opens]

883
00:32:30,078 --> 00:32:32,080
I present Goddess,
which is not veryELIZABETH: Oh.

884
00:32:32,124 --> 00:32:33,690
Of the people,
so before we go to press,

885
00:32:33,734 --> 00:32:34,972
we should probably
change it to something

886
00:32:34,996 --> 00:32:36,302
like Goddess of the People.

887
00:32:36,345 --> 00:32:38,086
She is a looker.

888
00:32:38,130 --> 00:32:39,759
And with a daily grooming
and vitamin regimen,

889
00:32:39,783 --> 00:32:41,916
she will stay that way.
Seems like a lot of work.

890
00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:44,005
Not for you. Well, still,

891
00:32:44,049 --> 00:32:45,528
I don't know if I'm comfortable

892
00:32:45,572 --> 00:32:48,967
with a dog who spends more
time on her hair than I do.

893
00:32:49,010 --> 00:32:50,359
She's not really

894
00:32:50,403 --> 00:32:52,231
a "rolling around
on the lawn" type.

895
00:32:52,274 --> 00:32:55,103
I agree. More of a "fetching a
vote on the floor" type. Well,

896
00:32:55,147 --> 00:32:56,931
I appreciate that, Mike.

897
00:32:56,975 --> 00:33:00,021
But we are going to want
to have a relationship

898
00:33:00,065 --> 00:33:02,043
with the animal. Well,
she's very relatable. Why don't you try

899
00:33:02,067 --> 00:33:03,609
communicating with her
before you decide she's icy.

900
00:33:03,633 --> 00:33:04,939
Well...

901
00:33:04,983 --> 00:33:07,463
[barks, growling]Whoa, whoa!
Goddess. Goddess.

902
00:33:07,507 --> 00:33:09,378
I think she senses
your hostility.

903
00:33:09,422 --> 00:33:12,599
Or she's an overbred,
tightly-wound bitch.

904
00:33:12,642 --> 00:33:16,255
Once she realizes you're
alpha, she will fall into line.

905
00:33:16,298 --> 00:33:17,604
I'm already trying to convince

906
00:33:17,647 --> 00:33:19,047
China and Russia
that I'm the alpha.

907
00:33:19,084 --> 00:33:21,390
I don't want to have to
worry about it with my dog.

908
00:33:21,434 --> 00:33:23,175
She's not a fit. Everybody wants

909
00:33:23,218 --> 00:33:25,481
a Gordon. There was only one.

910
00:33:25,525 --> 00:33:27,396
I know. I'll keep looking.

911
00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:28,702
Thank you.[Goddess barking]

912
00:33:28,745 --> 00:33:32,314
Two speeches, Madam
President, as promised.

913
00:33:32,358 --> 00:33:34,055
Daisy. Still no word

914
00:33:34,099 --> 00:33:36,144
from Beijing or Moscow?

915
00:33:36,188 --> 00:33:37,363
Nope.

916
00:33:37,406 --> 00:33:38,929
And the clock is ticking.

917
00:33:38,973 --> 00:33:41,541
Multibillion-dollar arms race,

918
00:33:41,584 --> 00:33:43,412
comprehensive ban treaty.

919
00:33:43,456 --> 00:33:44,761
I mean, I...

920
00:33:44,805 --> 00:33:47,329
I'm used to things
coming down to the wire,

921
00:33:47,373 --> 00:33:48,678
but wow.

922
00:33:48,722 --> 00:33:50,854
Well, you damn sure have
enough on your plate.

923
00:33:50,898 --> 00:33:53,335
I need to bring this
to your attention.

924
00:33:55,381 --> 00:33:56,730
[sighs]

925
00:34:00,908 --> 00:34:02,214
This is the leaker?

926
00:34:02,257 --> 00:34:03,824
Yeah.

927
00:34:03,867 --> 00:34:06,740
I want to see him
as soon as possible.

928
00:34:06,783 --> 00:34:08,437
Thought you would.
He's on the way.

929
00:34:08,481 --> 00:34:11,614
Oh, my God. Hey. [blows kiss]

930
00:34:11,658 --> 00:34:13,312
Meet FDOTUS, a mutt

931
00:34:13,355 --> 00:34:15,879
of indeterminate
age and ancestry.Hi.

932
00:34:15,923 --> 00:34:19,274
She's got no papers,
no Instagram feed.

933
00:34:19,318 --> 00:34:21,450
[laughs]And she can't do
a single trick, can you?

934
00:34:21,494 --> 00:34:23,539
I'll let you break it to Mike.

935
00:34:23,583 --> 00:34:25,498
Oh.Oh, good girl. Oh, good girl.

936
00:34:25,541 --> 00:34:27,239
Well,
how did you do this so quickly?

937
00:34:27,282 --> 00:34:28,675
What do you mean?

938
00:34:28,718 --> 00:34:31,199
Well... I walked to the
shelter in Dupont Circle,

939
00:34:31,243 --> 00:34:33,767
and FDOTUS practically jumped in my lap.
Come here.

940
00:34:33,810 --> 00:34:35,769
Didn't you, buddy?
Oh, she's perfect.

941
00:34:35,812 --> 00:34:37,442
Mm, isn't she?
I don't like the name, though.

942
00:34:37,466 --> 00:34:39,381
That's silly.
Well, that'll come.

943
00:34:39,425 --> 00:34:42,123
Hi. Hi.Okay, I'm gonna leave
you guys to get acquainted.

944
00:34:42,167 --> 00:34:43,255
Oh, okay.

945
00:34:43,298 --> 00:34:45,126
[chuckles]: Hi.

946
00:34:45,170 --> 00:34:47,737
Whoa!
Oh.Come on, go play with Mama.

947
00:34:47,781 --> 00:34:49,498
I'm afraid she imprinted
on me a little bit.

948
00:34:49,522 --> 00:34:51,741
That's okay. All right.

949
00:34:51,785 --> 00:34:53,395
But you'll definitely
be her human.

950
00:34:53,439 --> 00:34:55,441
We'll bond later.

951
00:34:56,485 --> 00:34:58,139
It's been a long day, Senator.

952
00:34:58,183 --> 00:34:59,967
Are we about done here?
Just a moment.

953
00:35:00,010 --> 00:35:02,578
Yes. Here it is.

954
00:35:02,622 --> 00:35:04,537
[whispers]: I have to pee.Mr.
Moran, you insist

955
00:35:04,580 --> 00:35:07,366
your trip to your parents' party
had no campaign-related purpose.

956
00:35:07,409 --> 00:35:09,803
Yes, that's correct.
And yet you didn't rejoin the campaign

957
00:35:09,846 --> 00:35:11,457
for another five days, did you?

958
00:35:11,500 --> 00:35:13,372
No, I didn't.Because,
having sealed the deal

959
00:35:13,415 --> 00:35:15,113
with Mr. Anderson's PAC,

960
00:35:15,156 --> 00:35:16,568
you were trying to
land more big game,

961
00:35:16,592 --> 00:35:18,116
weren't you?

962
00:35:18,159 --> 00:35:20,596
I was definitely trying
to land big game, Senator,

963
00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:22,598
but it had nothing
to do with politics.

964
00:35:22,642 --> 00:35:23,817
[door opens]

965
00:35:23,860 --> 00:35:25,949
Trevor? Hey.

966
00:35:25,993 --> 00:35:27,299
How was San Francisco?

967
00:35:27,342 --> 00:35:30,432
Uh, good.
Well, wh-what are you doing here?

968
00:35:30,476 --> 00:35:31,868
It was a ten-hour
drive from D.C.,

969
00:35:31,912 --> 00:35:33,237
but there's something
I have to say.

970
00:35:33,261 --> 00:35:34,958
Me too. Me first. Um...

971
00:35:36,134 --> 00:35:38,788
Look, I overreacted
because I was disappointed.

972
00:35:38,832 --> 00:35:40,442
Okay?

973
00:35:40,486 --> 00:35:41,835
But I love you.

974
00:35:42,879 --> 00:35:44,446
And I want to be with you.

975
00:35:44,490 --> 00:35:47,928
And if you'll still have
me, I'll move in,

976
00:35:47,971 --> 00:35:50,887
and the future will
be what it'll be.

977
00:35:50,931 --> 00:35:52,585
Okay?

978
00:35:56,154 --> 00:35:59,069
♪

979
00:35:59,113 --> 00:36:01,550
Yeah.

980
00:36:01,594 --> 00:36:03,509
Yeah,
I still want you to move in.

981
00:36:03,552 --> 00:36:05,511
Under one condition.

[indistinct chatter]Mom. Dad.

983

Huh, what?
I want you to meet someone.

984
00:36:10,864 --> 00:36:13,432
[short chuckle] Hey.
This is Trevor.

985
00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:15,782
My fiancé.

986
00:36:15,825 --> 00:36:18,176
W... So...

987
00:36:18,219 --> 00:36:21,483
Uh... y-you're not with her?

988
00:36:22,484 --> 00:36:23,485
BLAKE: Oh.

989
00:36:23,529 --> 00:36:24,965
[chuckles]: N... No.

990
00:36:25,008 --> 00:36:27,228
Stevie's just a friend.
A good friend, but, um,

991
00:36:27,272 --> 00:36:29,578
Trevor's the one I love.

992
00:36:29,622 --> 00:36:30,971
Oh.

993
00:36:31,014 --> 00:36:32,755
Thank God.

994
00:36:32,799 --> 00:36:35,062
Welcome to the
family, honey.[laughs]

995
00:36:35,105 --> 00:36:36,150
Oh! BLAKE: I guess

996
00:36:36,194 --> 00:36:37,301
you really mean that. Oh, yeah.

997
00:36:37,325 --> 00:36:40,372
So the secretary
gave us five days off

998
00:36:40,415 --> 00:36:41,634
so we could celebrate.

999
00:36:41,677 --> 00:36:42,698
In the middle of a campaign.

1000
00:36:42,722 --> 00:36:44,027
I mean, that is very generous.

1001
00:36:44,071 --> 00:36:45,440
Mr. Moran...
I wanted to go to London,

1002
00:36:45,464 --> 00:36:46,615
and Trevor's more
of a Paris guy,

1003
00:36:46,639 --> 00:36:47,770
so we booked two Airbnbs.

1004
00:36:47,814 --> 00:36:49,468
We added a night in Provence.

1005
00:36:49,511 --> 00:36:52,253
We don't even have a date
for the wedding.Mr. Moran.

1006
00:36:52,297 --> 00:36:55,561
As riveting as your detours into
your personal life have been,

1007
00:36:55,604 --> 00:36:58,128
it reluctantly falls
upon me to announce

1008
00:36:58,172 --> 00:36:59,869
that your testimony
before this committee

1009
00:36:59,913 --> 00:37:01,654
is hereby concluded.
You are dismissed.

1010
00:37:01,697 --> 00:37:03,221
Oh.

1011
00:37:03,264 --> 00:37:04,526
Okay. [chuckles]

1012
00:37:04,570 --> 00:37:06,267
Go. Now.

1013
00:37:06,311 --> 00:37:08,356
Please.

1014
00:37:10,402 --> 00:37:11,533
Admiral.

1015
00:37:11,577 --> 00:37:14,101
Madam President.

1016
00:37:14,144 --> 00:37:16,712
You tipped The Chronicle
that this administration

1017
00:37:16,756 --> 00:37:19,672
was considering the use
of autonomous weaponry

1018
00:37:19,715 --> 00:37:22,152
to neutralize Laszlo Galassy.

1019
00:37:23,197 --> 00:37:24,590
That is true.

1020
00:37:24,633 --> 00:37:25,721
You're aware

1021
00:37:25,765 --> 00:37:27,984
that by leaking
classified information,

1022
00:37:28,028 --> 00:37:29,551
you committed a federal crime.

1023
00:37:29,595 --> 00:37:31,292
Yes, ma'am.

1024
00:37:31,336 --> 00:37:32,815
You should also be aware

1025
00:37:32,859 --> 00:37:35,165
that you just made this
country that you served

1026
00:37:35,209 --> 00:37:38,343
with honor and distinction
for over three decades

1027
00:37:38,386 --> 00:37:40,301
less safe. No, ma'am.

1028
00:37:41,346 --> 00:37:42,912
Excuse me?

1029
00:37:42,956 --> 00:37:45,350
You made us less safe.

1030
00:37:45,393 --> 00:37:47,177
You failed us.

1031
00:37:47,221 --> 00:37:50,485
You sent troops into harm's way

1032
00:37:50,529 --> 00:37:52,487
when you could have spared them.

1033
00:37:52,531 --> 00:37:53,880
You violated

1034
00:37:53,923 --> 00:37:56,361
a leader's prime directive:

1035
00:37:56,404 --> 00:37:58,754
to protect the men and women

1036
00:37:58,798 --> 00:37:59,973
who put on the uniform.

1037
00:38:00,016 --> 00:38:02,236
No, Ed.

1038
00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:03,585
My prime directive

1039
00:38:03,629 --> 00:38:06,545
is to protect all Americans.

1040
00:38:06,588 --> 00:38:10,288
I'm going to take another
step to do that right now.

1041
00:38:12,377 --> 00:38:15,467
Sir, you're in
violation of 18 U.S.C.

1042
00:38:15,510 --> 00:38:16,903
Section 798.
Please put your hands

1043
00:38:16,946 --> 00:38:18,339
behind your back.

1044
00:38:21,777 --> 00:38:22,909
[handcuffs click]

1045
00:38:22,952 --> 00:38:25,651
Thank you for your
service, Admiral.

1046
00:38:26,695 --> 00:38:28,654
RUSSELL: Madam President.

1047
00:38:28,697 --> 00:38:30,177
Ma'am.

1048
00:38:30,220 --> 00:38:33,702
We just heard back from the
Russians and the Chinese.

1049
00:38:40,013 --> 00:38:41,164
ELIZABETH: Good evening. Today,

1050
00:38:41,188 --> 00:38:43,364
the United States,
China and Russia

1051
00:38:43,408 --> 00:38:45,410
have agreed to an
immediate moratorium

1052
00:38:45,453 --> 00:38:48,369
on the battlefield deployment
of autonomous weaponry.

1053
00:38:48,413 --> 00:38:52,155
Artificial intelligence holds
great promise for humanity

1054
00:38:52,199 --> 00:38:55,115
in medicine,
transportation and a host

1055
00:38:55,158 --> 00:38:56,769
of worthy human endeavors.

1056
00:38:56,812 --> 00:38:58,205
But that promise

1057
00:38:58,248 --> 00:39:01,339
evaporates when A.I.
becomes an instrument of war.

1058
00:39:01,382 --> 00:39:03,819
Autonomous weapons

1059
00:39:03,863 --> 00:39:06,169
can't feel. They can't regret.

1060
00:39:06,213 --> 00:39:07,736
But they can be

1061
00:39:07,780 --> 00:39:09,782
programmed to kill,
and when they do,

1062
00:39:09,825 --> 00:39:11,479
they can't be called back

1063
00:39:11,523 --> 00:39:15,222
because they're built to
override human intervention.

1064
00:39:15,265 --> 00:39:17,746
They may even
conclude our humanity

1065
00:39:17,790 --> 00:39:19,400
is the glitch in the system,

1066
00:39:19,444 --> 00:39:21,881
the weakness that
needs to be eradicated.

1067
00:39:21,924 --> 00:39:24,666
Humankind has spent more time,

1068
00:39:24,710 --> 00:39:27,060
energy and money perfecting war

1069
00:39:27,103 --> 00:39:29,410
than on any other
human endeavor.

1070
00:39:29,454 --> 00:39:32,195
We have fought each other
to the brink of starvation

1071
00:39:32,239 --> 00:39:34,459
and the edge of extinction,

1072
00:39:34,502 --> 00:39:38,027
but the one aspect of warfare
that safeguards our survival

1073
00:39:38,071 --> 00:39:41,553
is meaningful human control.

1074
00:39:41,596 --> 00:39:44,599
The reluctance to put
troops in harm's way

1075
00:39:44,643 --> 00:39:46,906
and the compassion
to sue for peace

1076
00:39:46,949 --> 00:39:49,169
when enough blood
has been spilt.

1077
00:39:49,212 --> 00:39:52,520
These are considerations
alien to robots.

1078
00:39:52,564 --> 00:39:55,131
Allowing machines
to choose to kill us

1079
00:39:55,175 --> 00:39:58,613
will eliminate these
safeguards and will forever

1080
00:39:58,657 --> 00:40:01,660
erode our freedom and security.

1081
00:40:01,703 --> 00:40:03,923
That day must never come.

1082
00:40:03,966 --> 00:40:05,838
We must not consign our fate

1083
00:40:05,881 --> 00:40:08,362
to algorithms.

1084
00:40:08,406 --> 00:40:11,060
I look forward to productive
talks with our partners

1085
00:40:11,104 --> 00:40:14,934
across the globe about
how to safely harness A.I.

1086
00:40:14,977 --> 00:40:17,763
Technology is not the enemy

1087
00:40:17,806 --> 00:40:21,114
unless we allow it to
substitute its judgment

1088
00:40:21,157 --> 00:40:22,942
for our own.

1089
00:40:22,985 --> 00:40:26,249
Congratulations on averting
the robot apocalypse.

1090
00:40:26,293 --> 00:40:29,427
So... tell us about
the political one.

1091
00:40:29,470 --> 00:40:30,732
Today's festivities

1092
00:40:30,776 --> 00:40:32,908
included Hanson's
committee trying to prove

1093
00:40:32,952 --> 00:40:34,954
that Blake Moran
and Stephanie McCord

1094
00:40:34,997 --> 00:40:37,478
illegally coordinated with
Shelton Anderson's PAC.

1095
00:40:37,522 --> 00:40:39,741
How? By hitching a ride

1096
00:40:39,785 --> 00:40:41,961
to an anniversary party.[sighs]

1097
00:40:42,004 --> 00:40:44,113
That's better than implying
that I whacked a state senator.

1098
00:40:44,137 --> 00:40:45,965
It's death by a thousand
cuts, Mike,

1099
00:40:46,008 --> 00:40:48,097
and Hanson just started
sharpening his blade.

1100
00:40:48,141 --> 00:40:49,708
The press secretary,

1101
00:40:49,751 --> 00:40:51,903
the president's daughter, her husband...
they all have yet

1102
00:40:51,927 --> 00:40:53,320
to appear before the committee.

1103
00:40:53,363 --> 00:40:55,167
How long can we keep the
president out of the loop?

1104
00:40:55,191 --> 00:40:56,715
Not much longer.

1105
00:40:56,758 --> 00:40:58,823
She needs to know.
MIKE: Well, then, she opens herself up

1106
00:40:58,847 --> 00:41:00,129
to charges she was
coordinating with her staff

1107
00:41:00,153 --> 00:41:01,826
to subvert the investigation.
It's not good.

1108
00:41:01,850 --> 00:41:03,765
No.

1109
00:41:06,246 --> 00:41:08,291
You know,
I think I figured it out.

1110
00:41:08,335 --> 00:41:10,555
You certainly did.

1111
00:41:10,598 --> 00:41:12,687
What do you mean?

1112
00:41:12,731 --> 00:41:15,342
Getting the Russians
and the Chinese on board

1113
00:41:15,385 --> 00:41:17,997
with an autonomous weapons ban.
What do you mean?

1114
00:41:18,040 --> 00:41:19,999
My dream.Oh.

1115
00:41:20,042 --> 00:41:21,237
The one where you
can't use your phone?

1116
00:41:21,261 --> 00:41:22,654
No, that's every dream.

1117
00:41:22,697 --> 00:41:24,612
The one with Peter Harriman.

1118
00:41:24,656 --> 00:41:26,919
I think it's about

1119
00:41:26,962 --> 00:41:29,791
being responsible for
people in your care.

1120
00:41:29,835 --> 00:41:32,838
Accountability.Yeah.

1121
00:41:32,881 --> 00:41:36,711
Machines don't have
to answer to anyone.

1122
00:41:38,496 --> 00:41:41,107
And they never have to look
a grieving parent in the eye.

1123
00:41:41,150 --> 00:41:43,196
You're talking
about a conscience.

1124
00:41:43,239 --> 00:41:45,067
Mine's weighing heavy on me.

1125
00:41:45,111 --> 00:41:47,069
Well, you made the right call.

1126
00:41:47,113 --> 00:41:49,637
It's the first time I sent...

1127
00:41:49,681 --> 00:41:51,944
troops to their death.

1128
00:41:51,987 --> 00:41:53,902
It won't be the last.

1129
00:41:58,385 --> 00:42:01,562
I still think about
the missions I flew.

1130
00:42:01,606 --> 00:42:04,826
The souls lost on both sides.

1131
00:42:04,870 --> 00:42:06,524
The human toll is something

that stays with you
forever, I guess.

1133
00:42:08,700 --> 00:42:10,528
It's the warrior's burden.

1134
00:42:10,571 --> 00:42:13,226
But it also makes
you cherish life.

1135
00:42:14,270 --> 00:42:16,403
Okay,
I'm gonna make us some tea.

1136
00:42:16,446 --> 00:42:17,926
We're gonna get some sleep,

1137
00:42:17,970 --> 00:42:20,450
wake up tomorrow
and do it all again

1138
00:42:20,494 --> 00:42:23,018
and hope to do it just
a little bit better.

Hope.
