I know you're working
with Saul Berenson.

I also know he just took
a group to Moscow.

Why are they there?

To retrieve Simone Martin.

Imagine Simone Martin
saying that publicly,

that everything we've
been blaming on Keane

- is actually Russians.
- A few words

to the Russian ambassador,
and Saul's mission fails.

Plan "A" at the dacha
went to shit.

Team walked into a trap.

Explain to me how you used
the 25th Amendment

to oust a President
who is not in a coma,

not in any way disabled,

clearly in possession
of her faculties.

Elizabeth Keane
is no longer President.

Whatever authorization
we had has vanished.

There are divisions on their
side we can use against them.

What do you want?

I want Simone Martin.

This whole crazy thing is you.

The Kremlin has lost control.
You are the problem.

What do you think they'll do?
You are expendable.

You good?

Yeah.

Keep down, okay?

They're expecting us
at the Embassy?

Yeah.

Was that always the plan?

More or less. Difference
being we didn't expect

- to have Yevgeny on our ass.
- Well, we don't.

Not yet, anyway.

Left here.

Live videos
taken on the ground show

a violent assault in progress
at the headquarters

of the GRU...

...Russia's main intelligence
directorate, where personnel...

...are being dragged outside,

beaten, and held at gunpoint
by members of the SVR,

the Russian
foreign intelligence service,

a modern successor...

What is this? What's going on?

Apparently, the Russians
are fighting each other.

Bullshit. It's Saul Berenson,
and you sent him there.

You thought what?
I wouldn't find out?

I wouldn't notice you sent
a damn time bomb to Moscow?

What is he doing?
What's the mission?

He's...

discussing Russian
active measures

with members of
their intelligence community.

Really? That is "discussing
active measures"?

You don't wanna answer
my questions? Fine.

I'll pull him from
the field right now.

Don't do that.

Why not? Why shouldn't I?

Why shouldn't I?

- Simone Martin.
- What about her?

I told you
she's a Russian operative.

- Was a Russian operative.
- No.

She's alive in Moscow.

Saul has gone there
to bring her back.

Simone is GRU.
That's GRU headquarters.

So we assumed it was
part of Saul's mission,

but obviously,
something has gone wrong.

You think?

I should've been
briefed on this.

- You should've briefed me.
- I couldn't take that chance.

What chance?

That I would compromise

an American operation
in progress on the ground?

Yes.

Why on earth
would I do that?

For the same reason you stuck
a knife in my back two days ago.

Saul.

They have the package.

Listen up.

We're going home.
We leave now.

Don't go to your rooms.
Go straight to the parking garage.

Colonel.

Mr. Berenson,
has something happened?

What you predicted.

All the changes in Washington.
I've been recalled.

You're not National Security
Advisor anymore?

I said recalled, not fired.

New President wants
to consult with me.

He also said I must invite
you and General Yakushin

to Washington to continue
our discussions there.

I'd like that.

This is Saul Berenson.

Get her in the van.

Are we good?

Police escort is waiting outside.
Plane is standing by.

- Thanks, Jim.
- Don't thank me yet.

Stop! Stop!

What's wrong?

I want everyone
out of this van.

- Excuse me?
- I said everyone out!

Colonel, calm down.

Turn off the car!

Please, you're making
a fool of yourself.

I am?

Da?

I'm sorry. Misunderstanding.

Have a good flight.

Who keeps calling you?

- It's nobody. No, don't!
- Hey!

Clint. Who?

It's... Janet. She works
for Senator Paley.

Tell me.

She came to my house

to find out what
Saul was doing.

I have no idea how she even
connected me to it.

She threatened you?

And you told her about the plan
to exfiltrate Simone.

That's why the Russians were
waiting at the dacha.

Saul's en route
to the airport.

Have you said
anything to anybody

- about what's happening now?
- No, nothing. Not a word.

It's why I'm not
answering the phone.

So she doesn't get any ideas
and try to find us.

I'm really, really sorry.

I'm sorry, too. But right now
I can't let you out of my sight.

Come on. Come.

Sit with me, okay?

- Fuck.
- Fuck.

- Max, can you hear me?
- Yeah.

We're cut off from the Embassy.
Where's Saul?

He left the hotel five minutes
ago with the package.

We have to buy time.

40 minutes, maybe an hour,
till they're in the air.

- Where are you going?
- They know the car.

- I have to go on foot.
- I'm not leaving you.

No, it's not up for discussion.
I agreed with Saul.

If things go wrong,
this is the plan.

What, to allow them
to fucking catch you?

No, to buy time for
what really matters,

which is not me,
it's Simone.

They've seen us.

- What station is that?
- Checking.

Remember, we're a bunch
of diplomats heading home.

So you know who you are.

Carrie Mathison.
Your favorite.

- What's happening with her?
- Don't worry about it.

She came over the roof
to get me.

Did you know that?

You're just going
to leave her here?

Saul.

What do you think
you're doing?

This is a diplomatic vehicle.

- You. Out.
- Nobody's going anywhere.

- This man is murderer.
- You're mistaken.

We're United States diplomats.

This man's wanted
by the police.

Killed someone
in Sergiyev Posad.

That's the dacha.
They have a photo.

We have diplomatic immunity.

His orders are
to make an arrest.

No, that's not gonna happen.
We have diplomatic immunity.

We're protected
by international law.

Fuck off, asshole!
Lock it! Lock it!

Get me the Embassy. Now.

Mr. President,
I have Mr. Berenson for you.

He says it's urgent.

Put him on.

- Mr. Berenson.
- Mr. President,

I'm at Ostafyevo Airport
outside Moscow

on a diplomatic mission
initiated by President Keane.

- I'm aware.
- Then you're aware

of the importance
of our work here.

What do you want?

The guards are refusing
to let us board our plane.

I need you to contact
the Russians and remind them

this is a diplomatic mission,
that all of us

have diplomatic immunity
and must be allowed to board.

Why are they holding you?

Police claim a member
of our group

is wanted in connection with
a homicide outside of Moscow.

- And was he involved?
- No, sir. Mistaken identity.

And has the mission
been a success?

- Sir?
- You heard me.

Has the mission
been a success?

Yes, it has.

But if our situation here
isn't resolved soon,

that will change.

I'll have to
get back to you.

He's got her,
doesn't he?

Simone Martin.

So you know she's alive?

Yes.

And not a victim of
Keane's reign of terror,

- as you've been saying.
- No.

But that's not
the issue now.

And what is the issue?

If Saul Berenson returns
with Simone Martin

to the United States,

Keane'll be sitting behind
this desk again,

feeling vindicated
and vindictive.

You'll be back
to opening State Fairs

and Boy Scout jamborees.

- What do you advise?
- The Russian Ambassador was

waiting in the Roosevelt Room
when I came in.

Said he's been asking
to see you all morning.

Tell him the truth.

Which is?

You didn't send Berenson
to Moscow.

You didn't cause
all this unrest.

You are not responsible

for Elizabeth Keane's
brinksmanship.

- Max, are you there?
- Yeah.

Please tell me
Saul's on the plane.

No. There's a problem
at the airfield.

They're not being
allowed to board.

Jesus.

Mr. President.

Mr. Ambassador,
sorry to keep you waiting.

It's been a hell of a morning.

Forgive me for getting
straight to the point,

but events in Moscow are
causing us great concern.

Mm, as they are me.

Especially because we have
clear evidence

they were instigated by
members of your own--

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
I think we have this

the wrong way around.
I asked to see you,

because right now
there's a situation

developing at
Ostafyevo Airport.

Your security forces
are preventing

Saul Berenson and his team
from leaving the country.

In fact,
they're being detained.

I want them released
immediately.

Mr. President, this is not
at all what we discussed.

Let me finish, Senator.

Mr. Berenson is there
on a diplomatic mission

and therefore
has diplomatic immunity...

- But he has flouted--
- ...no different than you.

And if he and his people aren't
allowed to board their plane

in the next five minutes,
I will close your Embassy

and I will detain
every single Russian diplomat,

starting with you.

Call Moscow.

Let Mr. Berenson go.

And you, Senator,

you can get the fuck
out of my White House.

- Carrie.
- Yeah?

Anson made it
into the Embassy.

Oh, thank God. What about Saul?

Not yet.

Saul.

Max, I haven't got
much longer.

I'm with you, Carrie.

Drive.

You.

Carrie, Saul is away.

Security is
unusually tight today

ahead of Simone Martin's
testimony

before the Senate
Intelligence Committee,

testimony widely expected to be

a complete vindication
of Elizabeth Keane,

who was removed from office
five days ago.

Senator Sam Paley,
who led that effort,

was himself arrested
Tuesday morning

in a dawn raid by the FBI

and charged with criminally
conspiring with a foreign power.

His chief of staff, Janet Bayne,

is said to be cooperating
with investigators.

Meanwhile,
back at the White House,

Ms. Keane is scheduled to be
re-sworn into office

at noon Eastern Standard Time.

Sources tell CNB
her first official act will be

to sign a series
of executive orders

dramatically expanding sanctions
against Russia.

It appears Simone Martin has
just entered the hearing room.

Let's watch.

In accordance with
the practice of the committee,

will the witness please rise
and be sworn?

Do you swear that all
the testimony you will give

in this proceeding will be
the truth, the whole truth,

and nothing but the truth,
so help you God?

- I do.
- Be seated.

Would you state
your full name, please?

- Simone Marie Martin.
- Ms. Martin,

the Committee thanks you for
your appearance here today.

There's a lot riding on
what you have to say,

so I'd like to just jump right
in, if that's okay with you.

Will you tell
the American people

what the GRU is?

The GRU is a foreign military
intelligence agency

of the general staff
of the armed forces

of the Russian Federation.

What is your relationship
to that organization?

I'm a Captain in the GRU.

That one's for you, Carrie.

Could you describe
for us, please,

what a Captain does exactly?

Different things.

Me, I'm an operations officer.
I work in the field.

Ms. Martin, what was
your most recent operation?

I was part of a team
sent here to disrupt

the American political system.

How?

By any means necessary.

Give me an example
of what you tried to do.

Come on, baby,
just say it.

We tried to compromise
your President

and push her out of office.

Yes!

Feels good, doesn't it?

To finally hear the truth.

- Yeah.
- Sure does.

You have no fucking idea.

So this is the room
where it happened.

Well, I wanted to come
and meet you all

and say thank you.

So thank you.

You guys kicked ass.

I also wanted to tell you

that I am doing
everything in my power

to bring
Carrie Mathison home.

Everything.

You have my solemn promise
on that.

Come on, Saul.
Introduce me to everybody.

- Sandy Langmore.
- It's an honor to meet you,

- Madam President.
- Clint Prower.

- Hi.
- Hi.

Max Pietrowski.

Hi.

How's the book?

It's good.

Passes time.

Yes. Thanks for
letting me have it.

Come.

Right. Of course.

I guess this means
Simone's already testified,

or is about to.

Sit down.

Well, I'm not gonna save
your asses now by reading

some stupid statement saying
this was all a CIA plot.

Oh, I think you will.

What's the point anyway?

People will know
the statement was coerced.

- No one will believe it.
- They don't have to.

As long as the seed of doubt
is planted,

that's all I need--

something to water
and let grow.

More reason
not to do it.

Your medication.

Your new medication.

Yes, I know all
about that.

Am I supposed
to be impressed?

No, you're supposed
to ask yourself

how do you want to spend
the rest of your days here--

reading nice books
that Aleksandr brings you

and exercising in the yard,

or gone mad,

locked up in an asylum?

Make the statement.

Admit your guilt,
apologize to the Russian people,

and the pills are yours
as long as you need them.

I said no.

It will be months, Carrie.

Maybe longer.

Very powerful men
are upset.

They're not gonna exchange
you soon, or for nothing.

Think about it.

You have till tomorrow
to decide.

Aleksandr!

Not yet.
Still a work in progress.

Tell them they'll get
the full draft

three hours before air.

Well, that's up
to the President.

Hold on. I'll ask her.

Reiko's wondering
if she should mention that

you chose tomorrow night
for the address

because it's the anniversary
of Andrew's death.

You know the answer to that.

My son's off-limits.

That would be a "no."

And, uh, I'll get back
to you on the other thing.

What about me?

When do I get
to see a draft?

When I'm ready
to show it to you.

Also, the Vice President's
been asking

for a moment of your time
after the reswearing in.

- What for?
- No idea.

Well, find out. Then put him
back in his doll box

and close the lid.
I'm done playing with him.

Thank you.

- Hello, Ralph.
- Madam President.

Not quite yet.

- Thanks for holding down the fort.
- It was the honor of my life.

And to all of you
for having my back...

Thank you.

Mr. Chief Justice.

Ma'am.

- Whenever you're ready.
- Now's good.

Excuse me.

Please place your left hand
on the Bible

and raise your right hand
and repeat after me.

Is it the same oath I swore
a hundred days ago?

Yes, ma'am.

Then I'm pretty sure
I got it down.

I do solemnly swear that
I shall faithfully execute

the office of the President
of the United States

and will, to the best
of my ability,

preserve, protect,
and defend

the Constitution
of the United States.

Hear, hear.

Aleksandr...

I need to ask you something.

Of course.

Come in a second.

Yevgeny has
a bottle of pills--

the medication I take.

Without it...

I'll lose my mind,
I'll... go insane.

I would do anything,

anything...

I don't know
if it's possible.

I will try.

We need
the transition protocols...

- David said you wanted a word.
- I do.

Please.

Is it true about
the new round of sanctions

you're planning to announce
tomorrow?

It is. Am I overplaying?

Not at all. The American
people need to know

exactly where you stand
on Russia and why.

What then?

The policy isn't the problem.
The method is.

Executive orders
governing by fiat.

I think you're-- you're
missing an opportunity here.

How so?

The Russian rebuke is
the perfect bipartisan issue.

Instead
of acting unilaterally,

why not bring Congress in
as a partner?

Because it's handing our agenda
over to a legislative body

that has forgotten
how to legislate.

You're right, of course.

It's not with--
without its risks.

But the upside is huge.

Build a bridge now

and push our domestic program
across it later.

Exactly.

I'm not sure
the timing is right.

In this town,

it's never a bad time to try
a new way of doing things.

Otherwise, it's just Democrats
and Republicans,

Republicans and Democrats,
whipsawing the country to death.

Tell you what, Ralph.

Let me think about it.

Of course, Madam President.

- David.
- Thank you.

I can't believe you were
going for that.

Oh, I don't know.
It didn't sound like such

- a terrible idea to me.
- Come on.

The man has instincts,
Elizabeth, and skills.

Even the other side
likes him.

But it's our foot on
their throats for once.

I think that's his point.
Sooner or later,

someone's gonna have to stop
this vicious cycle

of partisan advantage
and start exercising

- some restraint when in power.
- Does it have to be me?

Okay, okay.

I said I'll think about it.

I will.

What else?

Did I hear you say that
Paley's been asking to see me?

I'll just tell him
to piss off.

Actually, no,
don't do that.

Him, I might want
to talk to.

I see three names,
but no Alexei Gorin.

Gorin's a deal-breaker.

If she's really
that valuable...

I told you, I can't make Gorin
happen even if I wanted to.

Too bad.

Chrissake.
I'm offering you three

of the highest-level captures
in the last decade.

No one back in Moscow is much
in the mood to negotiate anyway.

Maybe it's better
if you wait a few months.

I can't wait a few months.

I don't even know if she'll
be alive in a few months.

Then... put Gorin back
on the list.

Come on in.

Madam President.

I let a terrible thing happen.

People died.

I beg your forgiveness.

I'm not asking for me.

I know I'm not getting out
of this place anytime soon.

I'm asking for my family--
my wife, Sally,

my boys, Harry and Sam Jr.,

all blameless.

I've been in public life
for 40 years.

My first job--
Animal Control Lieutenant,

Pima County, Arizona.
Literally the dog catcher.

I haven't spent a day
in private sector.

Never used any of my positions,
including United States Senate,

to enrich myself.

Maybe it's hard
for you to believe,

but... I'm not a wealthy man.

And without my pension,

my family won't-- won't
have enough to live on.

Sally... you know...

is not well.

Elizabeth...

please, I'm begging you.

Punish me, not them.

For God's sake,
say something.

Dinner.

Cauliflower
and carrot stroganoff.

It is not horrible.

Thanks.

Thank you.

Welcome.

Come back later tonight?

Reschedule for
our first press conference,

and Todd will take care
of that...

Let's go, guys.
Mic check. Where's the stand-in?

- What's going on?
- POTUS changed her mind.

- I thought you knew.
- Where is she?

In the residence.
She asked not to be disturbed.

Come in.

Um... could-- could
we have a moment, please?

No, stay.

Don't look so worried, David.

We discussed this--
the East Room,

the power walk to the podium,
you're always better

- in front of a live audience.
- I'll be fine.

Don't tell me you'll be fine.
Tell me what's going on.

You're the one who wanted me
to listen to the Vice President.

- Well, I have.
- Okay.

That's why I'm moving
the speech to the Oval.

I wanna sit down
and speak directly

to the American people
from the heart,

- like I did after Lucasville.
- Well, that is hardly the speech

that's on the teleprompter
right now.

I'm not going to use
the teleprompter.

- What?
- You heard me.

I'm gonna wing it,
let the spirit move me.

You're kidding.

I'm not.

You're prepared to blow
your one chance

to reintroduce yourself
to the country?

There is still time.

Let me and Josh
whip something up for you.

No.

Trust me, David.
I got this.

Well?

What?

Time's up.
You gotta decide.

I told you. I'm not doing it.
No statement.

Shame.

I was really hoping you'd
make it easy for both of us.

Tough shit.

You know, it's really not
that much to ask.

Surely I can
change your mind.

Not a chance.

Even if I told you that
Aleksandr has been reassigned.

Consular security in Zurich.

Aleksandr!

You should congratulate him.
It's a promotion.

Congratulations.

And that pill

he brought you last night?

Sugar.

I'm sorry to play with
your emotions like this,

but I hope you can see
your situation

a lot more clearly now.

Fuck you.

Last chance.
Read the statement.

I won't ask again.

Go to hell.

No.

I believe that's where
you're going.

Of course, yeah.

Is the script good
to go? She's gonna be using it?

Standby studio, 15 seconds.

Okay, everybody,
settle down now.

Nice and quiet.
Eight seconds to air.

Five, four,

three, two...

Ladies and gentlemen,

the President of
the United States.

Good evening.

I was going to read
a prepared speech tonight

about how Russia has waged
a covert war on my presidency

and on our country.

Those of you who watched
the Senate hearings yesterday

know what I'm talking about.

You should also know
that none of this is new.

We have been under one form
of Russian attack or another

since the 1950s.

What's different today

is what an easy target we are,

as deeply divided a nation

as I can remember.

For this, I must share
some of the blame.

The attack on my life
earlier this year...

It scared the hell out of me.

Then it made me really angry,

and then I tried to get even.

I wasn't above using
the power of this office

to lash out at my enemies.

I don't believe
it was against the law,

but it was wrong.

For over 200 years,

we have had an angel on
our shoulder in this country.

Lately...

I've been wondering
where she's gone.

Look around.

We're in trouble.
Our democracy is.

And it is not Russia's fault.
It is ours.

We are the ones killing it.

When we think
of democracies dying,

we think of revolutions,

of military coup d'etats,

of armed men in the street.

But that's less and less
how it happens anymore.

Turkey, Poland, Hungary,

Nicaragua, the Philippines...

democracies now die
when we're not looking,

when we're not paying attention.

And the end rarely comes
in an instant,

but arrives slowly,
like twilight.

And at first,

our eyes don't notice.

I spent much of the afternoon
with Vice President Warner,

who I have come to know as
a deeply honorable

and decent man.

He and I agree, our country
is at a crisis point,

locked in
an existential conflict

over race and identity
and culture.

The signs are everywhere

and flashing red.

Something must change.

Something bold must be done.

I don't pretend
to have all the answers,

but I do know I have become
part of the problem.

I open my mouth,

and half of you
hear only lies.

That's not only unacceptable,

but unlikely to change
anytime soon.

No single leader
can save a democracy,

but without a leader
you can trust,

no democracy can be saved.

For that reason,
effective midnight tonight,

I hereby resign the Presidency
of the United States.

The Vice President
will be sworn in as President

at that time in this office.

People will say I'm stepping
down because I'm weak.

I'm not.

I am as strong
as I have ever been.

People will say
it's because I'm a woman.

Well, if it takes a woman
to shock this country

back to its senses, so be it.

So let's make a promise
here tonight--

an American promise

to each other--

That instead of scorching
the earth between us,

we will try every day

to find common ground.

There will be a new President
in the morning.

Help him.

Pray for him.

Our future depends on it.

Good night,
and God bless America.

They're moving our way.

Can we confirm it's her?

90%.

What shape's she in?

Hard to tell.

Shouldn't we be moving, too?

Not yet.

Wanna see her first
with my own eyes.

That's her.
Get the prisoners.

Christ. Is that Gorin?

Yeah.

I had no idea.

Carrie?

Carrie. You all right?

Carrie.

Carrie?
