Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:01:38,559 --> 00:01:40,394
[Line ringing]
2
00:01:40,395 --> 00:01:42,438
This is Russo. Please leave a message.
3
00:01:42,439 --> 00:01:43,982
He's not answering my calls.
4
00:01:43,983 --> 00:01:46,233
It's over, and he must know it.
5
00:01:46,234 --> 00:01:49,236
[Matthews] You don't think
there's any way he can recover?
6
00:01:49,237 --> 00:01:52,949
The Republicans will play that interview
on every radio and television station
7
00:01:52,950 --> 00:01:55,451
from now until November 5th.
8
00:01:55,452 --> 00:01:58,913
I sympathize with the kid, but this
was my concern from the beginning.
9
00:01:58,914 --> 00:02:01,206
And I should've listened to you, sir.
10
00:02:01,207 --> 00:02:03,960
I thought he could handle the pressure.
11
00:02:03,961 --> 00:02:06,004
Okay. So he withdraws.
12
00:02:06,005 --> 00:02:07,588
We need to replace him.
13
00:02:07,589 --> 00:02:09,757
You have any ideas?
14
00:02:09,758 --> 00:02:13,136
With less than two months to go?
15
00:02:13,137 --> 00:02:15,972
[Sighs] If the President hadn't
shut me out of the early discussions,
16
00:02:15,973 --> 00:02:18,099
I could've come up with some good options,
17
00:02:18,100 --> 00:02:20,977
but I don't know anyone who's got
the name recognition and donor base
18
00:02:20,978 --> 00:02:25,523
to start a campaign from
scratch just seven weeks out.
19
00:02:25,524 --> 00:02:27,733
Let me think.
20
00:02:29,152 --> 00:02:32,113
Everything hinges on
the next few minutes...
21
00:02:32,114 --> 00:02:36,408
all my months of planning,
every move I've made.
22
00:02:38,786 --> 00:02:42,040
- There is one person.
- Who?
23
00:02:43,833 --> 00:02:45,877
You, Mr. Vice President.
24
00:02:45,878 --> 00:02:47,753
[Laughs]
25
00:02:47,754 --> 00:02:50,464
If you ran to reclaim your seat,
26
00:02:50,465 --> 00:02:52,008
I think you'd win by a landslide.
27
00:02:52,009 --> 00:02:53,676
Resign the vice presidency.
28
00:02:53,677 --> 00:02:55,761
Only if you win.
29
00:02:55,762 --> 00:02:57,930
Walker needs me for 2016.
30
00:02:59,640 --> 00:03:02,518
Are you entirely certain he's
gonna keep you on the ticket?
31
00:03:02,519 --> 00:03:05,188
I mean, it's no secret
32
00:03:05,189 --> 00:03:08,607
the two of you don't exactly get along.
33
00:03:08,608 --> 00:03:10,401
What has he said?
34
00:03:12,403 --> 00:03:15,948
Oh, you're putting me in a very
awkward position, Mr. Vice President.
35
00:03:15,949 --> 00:03:18,534
Has he been bad-mouthing me?
36
00:03:18,535 --> 00:03:23,122
Well, the exact phrase he
used was "pain in the ass."
37
00:03:24,123 --> 00:03:26,709
[Chuckles]
38
00:03:28,502 --> 00:03:29,879
That fucker.
39
00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:32,006
He's got no idea how to lead,
40
00:03:32,007 --> 00:03:34,550
no sense of respect.
41
00:03:34,551 --> 00:03:36,719
- Oh, is this his idea?
- No.
42
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:39,013
- His way of getting rid of me?
- No. It struck me yesterday,
43
00:03:39,014 --> 00:03:40,765
and I just thought it was worth suggesting.
44
00:03:40,766 --> 00:03:42,558
But, no, I haven't
discussed this with anyone.
45
00:03:42,559 --> 00:03:44,393
And you shouldn't.
46
00:03:44,394 --> 00:03:48,022
People don't leave the White
House to become a governor.
47
00:03:48,023 --> 00:03:50,149
[Sighs]
48
00:03:50,150 --> 00:03:52,902
May I ask you a personal question, sir?
49
00:03:52,903 --> 00:03:55,487
Do you want to be the Vice President?
50
00:03:55,488 --> 00:03:59,242
Peter said that when you were
out on that campaign trail,
51
00:03:59,243 --> 00:04:02,078
you had so much enthusiasm and energy
52
00:04:02,079 --> 00:04:06,415
that he thought you maybe
missed being the Governor.
53
00:04:08,542 --> 00:04:10,377
I do miss it.
54
00:04:10,378 --> 00:04:12,713
Then why not go back?
55
00:04:12,714 --> 00:04:14,924
You could be the hero of this election
56
00:04:14,925 --> 00:04:19,053
and secure Pennsylvania
for the Democrats in 2016.
57
00:04:19,054 --> 00:04:23,057
[Scoffs] Garrett would never go
along with something like this,
58
00:04:23,058 --> 00:04:25,059
even if he hates my guts.
59
00:04:25,060 --> 00:04:26,936
It would make him look weak,
60
00:04:26,937 --> 00:04:30,064
like he's lost control
of the administration.
61
00:04:30,065 --> 00:04:32,316
Not if it was a mutual decision.
62
00:04:33,276 --> 00:04:35,486
Look, let me talk to Garrett.
63
00:04:35,487 --> 00:04:37,905
I won't mention that we've spoken.
64
00:04:39,991 --> 00:04:43,035
I suppose there's no harm in
finding out what he thinks.
65
00:04:43,036 --> 00:04:45,621
- [Taps desk]
- Thank you, Mr. Vice President.
66
00:04:48,874 --> 00:04:53,587
- Slogans for 400.
- [Alex Trebek] "1976. He's making us proud again."
67
00:04:53,588 --> 00:04:55,506
- D.J.
- Who is Carter.
68
00:04:55,507 --> 00:04:57,842
- [Trebek] No. John.
- Who is Ford.
69
00:04:57,843 --> 00:05:00,678
- Peter?
- [John] Slogans for 600.
70
00:05:00,679 --> 00:05:05,099
- [Trebek] "1888. Grandfather's hat fits Ben."
- Peter, are you here?
71
00:05:05,100 --> 00:05:07,143
- Claudia.
- Who is Benjamin Harrison.
72
00:05:07,144 --> 00:05:10,104
- [Trebek] Yes.
- [Claudia] Presidential slogans for 800.
73
00:05:10,105 --> 00:05:12,940
- [Trebek] "1900... "
- On the train ride down,
74
00:05:12,941 --> 00:05:14,900
I almost called the police
to have them break in
75
00:05:14,901 --> 00:05:17,611
and make sure you hadn't hurt yourself.
76
00:05:17,612 --> 00:05:21,406
I'm not gonna even ask you what
happened. It doesn't matter right now.
77
00:05:21,407 --> 00:05:24,618
- [Trebek] "1964. In your heart, you know he's right."
- What matters right now...
78
00:05:24,619 --> 00:05:26,954
- what matters...
- [Slurred] Who is Goldwater.
79
00:05:28,455 --> 00:05:30,124
- [Trebek] Claudia
- Who is Goldwater.
80
00:05:30,125 --> 00:05:31,709
[Trebek] Barry Goldwater. Yes.
81
00:05:31,710 --> 00:05:33,544
- [TV continues]
- [Mutters]
82
00:05:33,545 --> 00:05:35,296
[Mutters]
83
00:05:35,297 --> 00:05:37,965
Oh, come on. Hey, I'm watching that.
84
00:05:37,966 --> 00:05:41,510
- [Remote control clatters]
- [Chuckles]
85
00:05:41,511 --> 00:05:44,471
What matters is the 50 reporters
in front of your building
86
00:05:44,472 --> 00:05:47,975
and the 150 campaign staffers who
don't know if they still have a job.
87
00:05:47,976 --> 00:05:50,144
It's over.
88
00:05:51,436 --> 00:05:54,023
I know.
89
00:05:54,024 --> 00:05:56,525
So, tell them to go away.
90
00:06:09,747 --> 00:06:13,000
What, are you just gonna hole yourself
up in here and hope it all goes away?
91
00:06:13,001 --> 00:06:14,668
Yeah, that's pretty much the plan.
92
00:06:14,669 --> 00:06:17,171
Well, I won't let you.
93
00:06:17,172 --> 00:06:20,716
Hey, put that down. Hey.
94
00:06:20,717 --> 00:06:23,386
- Hey, put that down!
- Peter...
95
00:06:38,859 --> 00:06:41,653
We need to put out a statement.
96
00:06:41,654 --> 00:06:43,906
Call me when you're prepared to do that.
97
00:06:46,158 --> 00:06:49,078
I'll be at the headquarters in Philly.
98
00:06:51,122 --> 00:06:53,165
[Door opens, closes]
99
00:06:53,166 --> 00:06:55,709
[Claire] I was scared
that I was starting to feel
100
00:06:55,710 --> 00:06:59,588
too much for you.
101
00:06:59,589 --> 00:07:02,507
I think that's why I ended it.
102
00:07:02,508 --> 00:07:04,427
And you have no room for fear?
103
00:07:04,428 --> 00:07:07,388
No. Being afraid doesn't
accomplish anything.
104
00:07:07,389 --> 00:07:09,723
That's not true. When I'm overseas,
105
00:07:09,724 --> 00:07:12,435
rational fear... disease or violence...
106
00:07:12,436 --> 00:07:15,229
that sort of fear keeps you alive.
107
00:07:15,230 --> 00:07:18,107
Back here, [Clears throat] God,
108
00:07:18,108 --> 00:07:19,984
I find myself afraid of things
109
00:07:19,985 --> 00:07:23,570
that I can't name or point to.
110
00:07:23,571 --> 00:07:27,366
It's like, uh, how little am I seeing?
111
00:07:27,367 --> 00:07:30,995
Or have I wasted this day or this moment?
112
00:07:30,996 --> 00:07:33,080
Yeah, I think that sometimes...
113
00:07:33,081 --> 00:07:35,874
whether my life will add up.
114
00:07:37,376 --> 00:07:40,129
[Chuckles] Francis would roll his eyes
115
00:07:40,130 --> 00:07:42,798
if he heard me talking like this.
116
00:07:45,343 --> 00:07:47,470
Does he know where you are?
117
00:07:48,846 --> 00:07:50,931
No, he doesn't.
118
00:08:00,565 --> 00:08:03,694
If he's looking for you,
that's where you are.
119
00:08:03,695 --> 00:08:06,405
Over there.
120
00:08:06,406 --> 00:08:08,449
Before you met Frank.
121
00:08:08,450 --> 00:08:10,493
Alone.
122
00:08:10,494 --> 00:08:12,453
Curious.
123
00:08:12,454 --> 00:08:14,913
Absorbing everything.
124
00:08:14,914 --> 00:08:18,292
You have no idea what I
was like when I was a girl.
125
00:08:20,419 --> 00:08:22,671
Did he ever know that side of you?
126
00:08:24,756 --> 00:08:28,177
He wasn't interested in that girl.
127
00:08:28,178 --> 00:08:30,095
And neither was I.
128
00:08:30,096 --> 00:08:32,139
[Adam] What were you interested in?
129
00:08:32,140 --> 00:08:34,350
[Claire] Being more than an observer.
130
00:08:34,351 --> 00:08:36,394
You wanted to be seen.
131
00:08:36,395 --> 00:08:38,854
Not just seen.
132
00:08:38,855 --> 00:08:41,857
I wanted to be significant.
133
00:08:47,779 --> 00:08:49,114
[Click]
134
00:08:49,115 --> 00:08:51,158
There's no historical precedent.
135
00:08:51,159 --> 00:08:53,494
Aaron Burr ran for Governor,
Calhoun for the Senate.
136
00:08:53,495 --> 00:08:57,373
200 years ago. One shot a man in a
duel, the other believed in slavery.
137
00:08:57,374 --> 00:08:59,624
Is that really the sort of
company we wanna share, Frank?
138
00:08:59,625 --> 00:09:03,128
Mr. President, we stand losing
control of an important swing state,
139
00:09:03,129 --> 00:09:06,382
our majority in the house, and quite
possibly your second term in office.
140
00:09:06,383 --> 00:09:09,718
Preventing all of that may
require unconventional measures.
141
00:09:09,719 --> 00:09:11,512
It would look like I'm pushing him out.
142
00:09:11,513 --> 00:09:14,598
Or worse... that he's
abandoning the administration.
143
00:09:15,849 --> 00:09:17,809
You make a joint statement.
144
00:09:17,810 --> 00:09:20,145
You say he won't resign unless he wins.
145
00:09:20,146 --> 00:09:23,690
If he loses, he stays on as Vice President.
146
00:09:23,691 --> 00:09:26,860
No one could accuse either of
you of disloyalty to the other.
147
00:09:26,861 --> 00:09:29,613
- Did Jim come to you with this?
- No. It's entirely my idea.
148
00:09:29,614 --> 00:09:32,824
I wouldn't dream of speaking to the Vice
President without passing it by you first.
149
00:09:32,825 --> 00:09:34,701
I think he'd take it as an affront,
150
00:09:34,702 --> 00:09:37,037
like I'm trying to get rid of him.
151
00:09:37,038 --> 00:09:40,374
Honestly, sir, I think he might be
more interested than you imagine.
152
00:09:40,375 --> 00:09:43,168
- Why is that?
- Well, I hesitate to bring this up,
153
00:09:43,169 --> 00:09:46,589
but when he was campaigning for Russo,
154
00:09:46,590 --> 00:09:50,426
he spoke quite freely about you, sir.
155
00:09:52,928 --> 00:09:56,056
Mm-hmm. Tell me.
156
00:09:56,057 --> 00:09:58,392
Of course, I'm getting
this secondhand from Peter,
157
00:09:58,393 --> 00:10:00,311
but the gist of it is that...
158
00:10:00,312 --> 00:10:02,896
that you lack entirely in leadership,
159
00:10:02,897 --> 00:10:05,983
and that you have no sense of respect.
160
00:10:05,984 --> 00:10:08,026
And he wants more responsibility.
161
00:10:08,027 --> 00:10:10,028
And how do I give him that when he shows
162
00:10:10,029 --> 00:10:12,948
absolutely no discretion, no discipline?
163
00:10:12,949 --> 00:10:14,908
Well, that is entirely my point. Now, look,
164
00:10:14,909 --> 00:10:16,910
I take full responsibility
for backing Russo,
165
00:10:16,911 --> 00:10:19,580
but there could be a
silver lining in all this.
166
00:10:19,581 --> 00:10:21,457
You could accomplish two goals:
167
00:10:21,458 --> 00:10:23,708
Secure Pennsylvania for the Democrats
168
00:10:23,709 --> 00:10:27,421
and find an honorable
way to replace Matthews.
169
00:10:27,422 --> 00:10:29,089
What do you think?
170
00:10:30,215 --> 00:10:32,259
I think it is a very big decision,
171
00:10:32,260 --> 00:10:34,219
and we do not want to make it impulsively.
172
00:10:34,220 --> 00:10:36,721
I agree. I'd like to put
some more thought into it.
173
00:10:36,722 --> 00:10:38,890

has jumped to a 24-point margin,
347
00:24:28,387 --> 00:24:30,972
according to an overnight
CNN poll of registered voters.
348
00:24:30,973 --> 00:24:35,352
The swofford campaign is also reporting
a sharp spike in contributions...
349
00:24:35,353 --> 00:24:38,229
nearly half a million
dollars in the last 20...
350
00:24:43,234 --> 00:24:45,362
I saw that this morning.
351
00:24:45,363 --> 00:24:48,448
Francis got Peter to run.
352
00:24:49,907 --> 00:24:51,868
Do you know him well?
353
00:24:51,869 --> 00:24:53,995
We weren't close.
354
00:25:02,795 --> 00:25:05,756
Do you need to make calls? 'Cause
I can head into the other room.
355
00:25:05,757 --> 00:25:08,218
I don't think so. Thanks.
356
00:25:21,189 --> 00:25:23,941
[Sighs]
357
00:25:27,904 --> 00:25:29,780
Where are you going?
358
00:25:29,781 --> 00:25:32,574
To the lab. I should've gone in today.
359
00:25:34,618 --> 00:25:36,454
Adam.
360
00:25:36,455 --> 00:25:38,456
- Adam...
- Just go. Go. Leave.
361
00:25:38,457 --> 00:25:40,750
How long do you think this
can possibly go on for?
362
00:25:40,751 --> 00:25:42,877
We have never spent more
than 48 hours together.
363
00:25:42,878 --> 00:25:45,255
Maybe there's a reason for that.
364
00:25:46,630 --> 00:25:48,758
A part of me still loves you.
365
00:25:48,759 --> 00:25:50,468
Which part?
366
00:25:54,931 --> 00:25:57,892
I can't be just a pit stop, Claire,
367
00:25:57,893 --> 00:26:00,728
- or some sort of escape...
- Oh, come on. You're more than that.
368
00:26:00,729 --> 00:26:03,481
- ... or a top-up on whatever Francis can't provide.
- Oh, fuck off!
369
00:26:03,482 --> 00:26:05,942
He's my husband, Adam.
370
00:26:05,943 --> 00:26:08,736
We've gone through more
than you could ever imagine.
371
00:26:08,737 --> 00:26:10,947
I envy your free spirit,
and I'm attracted to it,
372
00:26:10,948 --> 00:26:12,698
but not all of us have that luxury.
373
00:26:12,699 --> 00:26:16,286
Which is what I find so
frustrating about you, Claire.
374
00:26:16,287 --> 00:26:18,788
You... you had a choice.
375
00:26:18,789 --> 00:26:20,664
You chose not to be free.
376
00:26:20,665 --> 00:26:23,751
No. What I chose was a man I
could love for more than a week.
377
00:26:28,965 --> 00:26:31,509
I shouldn't have said that. I...
378
00:26:31,510 --> 00:26:34,429
At least you're being honest.
379
00:26:34,430 --> 00:26:38,475
I can't live moment to
moment like you, Adam.
380
00:26:38,476 --> 00:26:42,437
I have a history with Francis,
I have a future with him,
381
00:26:42,438 --> 00:26:45,231
and it's bigger than a moment.
382
00:26:46,441 --> 00:26:48,401
Then you should kill it...
383
00:26:48,402 --> 00:26:51,653
whatever part of you still loves me.
384
00:26:53,655 --> 00:26:56,618
If you can't,
385
00:26:56,619 --> 00:26:58,660
I will.
386
00:27:01,663 --> 00:27:04,125
- Adam...
- No.
387
00:27:06,836 --> 00:27:08,129
[Door opens]
388
00:27:11,508 --> 00:27:13,426
[Tires screech softly]
389

[Phone beeps]
390
00:27:28,732 --> 00:27:30,943
[Line ringing]
391
00:27:30,944 --> 00:27:35,114
- [Sarah] Hello?
- Hey. Hey, sweetie.
392
00:27:36,533 --> 00:27:39,369
How's it going? I'm...
are you with your mom?
393
00:27:39,370 --> 00:27:42,288
She's downstairs. You
want me to go get her?
394
00:27:42,289 --> 00:27:45,583
No. No. I just wanted to call
395
00:27:45,584 --> 00:27:48,252
and say, uh,
396
00:27:48,253 --> 00:27:51,381
you know, hey to your...
uh, your brother and you.
397
00:27:51,382 --> 00:27:52,965
Is he... is he there?
398
00:27:52,966 --> 00:27:56,219
He's in his room, I think.
399
00:27:56,220 --> 00:27:58,513
Okay. You wanna go get him?
400
00:27:58,514 --> 00:28:00,056
Hold on.
401
00:28:02,350 --> 00:28:04,561
[Gunfire on TV]
402
00:28:12,360 --> 00:28:15,530
He says he doesn't want to talk to you.
403
00:28:15,531 --> 00:28:18,824
Wh... why not?
404
00:28:18,825 --> 00:28:21,244
We've seen the news, dad.
405
00:28:21,245 --> 00:28:25,289
There were all sorts of TV
cameras at our school yesterday.
406
00:28:25,290 --> 00:28:28,459
Mom's making us stay home this week.
407
00:28:33,881 --> 00:28:37,218
I want you to do something.
I want you to go to, uh,
408
00:28:37,219 --> 00:28:40,471
your bedroom window and look out.
409
00:28:42,181 --> 00:28:44,350
You see that black car?
410
00:28:44,351 --> 00:28:47,144
- Yeah.
- That's me.
411
00:28:47,145 --> 00:28:51,190
You shouldn't be here, dad.
Mom would be really angry.
412
00:28:51,191 --> 00:28:54,611
Well, we don't need to tell her.
413
00:28:54,612 --> 00:28:56,195
[Chuckling] Right?
414
00:28:56,196 --> 00:28:58,948
It'll just be... it'll just be, uh...
415
00:28:58,949 --> 00:29:01,534
it'll just be our little secret.
416
00:29:01,535 --> 00:29:03,578
Your voice sounds weird,
417
00:29:03,579 --> 00:29:05,996
like it did on the radio.
418
00:29:08,750 --> 00:29:10,710
You... you heard that?
419
00:29:10,711 --> 00:29:13,045
I have a computer.
420
00:29:13,046 --> 00:29:15,548
Uh, [Sniffles]
421
00:29:15,549 --> 00:29:18,551
I'm sorry.
422
00:29:18,552 --> 00:29:20,511
I...
423
00:29:20,512 --> 00:29:23,389
Sometimes your dad makes mistakes.
424
00:29:23,390 --> 00:29:25,308
- I better go.
- No.
425
00:29:25,309 --> 00:29:28,102
I don't like to hear your
voice when it's like this.
426
00:29:28,103 --> 00:29:31,105
It makes me sad. Bye, dad.
427
00:29:31,106 --> 00:29:32,898
Sarah, please...
428
00:29:32,899 --> 00:29:34,984

[Christina] Peter?
433
00:30:01,094 --> 00:30:02,679
Christina.
434
00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:04,263
Where are you?
435
00:30:04,264 --> 00:30:06,223
I'm, uh...
436
00:30:07,224 --> 00:30:09,935
Mm. I'm not...
437
00:30:09,936 --> 00:30:12,062
I'm not... I'm not doing so well.
438
00:30:12,063 --> 00:30:14,190
Where are you, Peter?
439
00:30:16,942 --> 00:30:20,571
- I'm in my car.
- Are you driving?
440
00:30:20,572 --> 00:30:21,781
No.
441
00:30:21,782 --> 00:30:24,492
Tell me where you are.
442
00:30:24,493 --> 00:30:26,786
I'm outside my kids' house.
443
00:30:26,787 --> 00:30:29,121
- You mean Madeleine's?
- Yeah.
444
00:30:29,122 --> 00:30:31,081
I need you to stay right there.
445
00:30:31,082 --> 00:30:32,958
Okay, Peter?
446
00:30:32,959 --> 00:30:35,169
You'll stay there?
447
00:30:36,546 --> 00:30:38,506
Peter.
448
00:30:38,507 --> 00:30:41,008
Peter, are you still there?
449
00:30:41,009 --> 00:30:42,968
Hello?
450
00:30:43,886 --> 00:30:45,388
Hello?
451
00:30:46,347 --> 00:30:48,432
[Engine starts]

[Police radio chatter]
453
00:31:15,459 --> 00:31:17,503
I'd like to turn myself in.
454
00:31:17,504 --> 00:31:19,589
For what?
455
00:31:20,757 --> 00:31:23,175
A few months ago,
456
00:31:23,176 --> 00:31:26,512
I was pulled over for drunk driving.
457
00:31:26,513 --> 00:31:28,681
They let me go. I should've been convicted.
458
00:31:28,682 --> 00:31:33,185
Well, if you were let go, sir,
we can't arrest you for it now.
459
00:31:36,397 --> 00:31:40,150
Well, I drunk drove
here. Arrest me for that.
460
00:31:41,235 --> 00:31:43,654
We can put you in a detox tank...
461
00:31:43,655 --> 00:31:46,407
I wanna be formally arrested.
462
00:31:46,408 --> 00:31:49,744
My name is congressman Peter Russo.
463
00:31:51,203 --> 00:31:55,165
I was arrested in January
on Michigan Avenue.
464
00:31:58,294 --> 00:32:00,546
Please have a seat, Congressman.
465
00:32:04,675 --> 00:32:06,969
I gotta make a few phone calls.
466
00:32:43,589 --> 00:32:46,884

[Phone chiming]
470
00:33:08,781 --> 00:33:11,659
- Have you found him?
- [Doug] I'm in front of his ex-wife's house.
471
00:33:11,660 --> 00:33:13,160
But Christina said he called from there.
472
00:33:13,161 --> 00:33:16,121
- He's not there?
- No.
473
00:33:16,122 --> 00:33:18,958
But his phone is. I found it by the curb.
474
00:33:18,959 --> 00:33:20,459
So we have no way to contact him?
475
00:33:20,460 --> 00:33:22,962
Not unless he reaches out to us.
476
00:33:22,963 --> 00:33:24,421
This isn't good.
477
00:33:24,422 --> 00:33:26,089
Want me to alert the authorities?
478
00:33:26,090 --> 00:33:29,010
- Let's give him a little longer.
- [Phone beeps]
479
00:33:29,011 --> 00:33:32,137
- [Lucas] How long did it last?
- About six months.
480
00:33:32,138 --> 00:33:35,182
- He was older.
- A lot?
481
00:33:36,893 --> 00:33:38,435
Yeah.
482
00:33:38,436 --> 00:33:42,272
Was he a journalist, or
did he work on the hill?
483
00:33:44,107 --> 00:33:47,236
[Sighs] I'd rather not say.
484
00:33:47,237 --> 00:33:49,321
All right.
485
00:33:52,157 --> 00:33:55,160
He was someone I looked
up to... for a while.
486
00:33:56,954 --> 00:33:58,998
Why did it end?
487
00:34:00,541 --> 00:34:02,501
He has a wife.
488
00:34:02,502 --> 00:34:06,463
We both knew it was gonna end eventually.
489
00:34:06,464 --> 00:34:10,009
I mean, it was really...
490
00:34:10,010 --> 00:34:12,887
it was fucked up.
491
00:34:12,888 --> 00:34:14,889
The first night we spent together,
492
00:34:14,890 --> 00:34:17,224
he told me he was gonna
hurt me and then discard me.
493
00:34:17,225 --> 00:34:18,935
And when it ended,
494
00:34:18,936 --> 00:34:21,562
I told him that he'd done neither.
495
00:34:21,563 --> 00:34:25,357
But... it does hurt.
496
00:34:25,358 --> 00:34:27,568
I won't hurt you.
497
00:34:27,569 --> 00:34:30,279
Yeah, you can't promise me that.
498
00:34:30,280 --> 00:34:32,281
Yes, I can.
499
00:34:36,326 --> 00:34:39,455
- Has anyone else seen him?
- No.
500
00:34:39,456 --> 00:34:42,875
He's in an interrogation room by himself.
501
00:34:44,501 --> 00:34:48,255
I never should've got mixed
up with this fucking mess.
502
00:34:48,256 --> 00:34:50,883
We're way behind regret time, Barney.
503
00:34:52,259 --> 00:34:54,971
Just have your guys keep him out of sight.
504
00:34:54,972 --> 00:34:57,180
I'll need a back exit.
505
00:35:22,873 --> 00:35:24,959
- I got him. Thanks.
- Yeah.
506
00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:26,418
Come on.
507
00:35:36,929 --> 00:35:40,099
Hey, Peter.
508
00:35:40,100 --> 00:35:42,225
Where's your car?
509
00:35:45,104 --> 00:35:47,106
It's down the street.
510
00:35:47,107 --> 00:35:50,651
I'll drive you home. You go back
to mine, have Meechum let you in.
511
00:35:50,652 --> 00:35:52,945
- This way?
- Yeah.
512
00:35:57,908 --> 00:36:01,453
What were you thinking, Peter?
513
00:36:01,454 --> 00:36:04,665
I need to take
responsibility for my actions.
514
00:36:04,666 --> 00:36:06,709
By getting yourself thrown in jail?
515
00:36:06,710 --> 00:36:09,712
Real responsibility.
516
00:36:09,713 --> 00:36:12,673
Like... like they talk
about in the meetings,
517
00:36:12,674 --> 00:36:14,967
not the lies we told for the campaign.
518
00:36:14,968 --> 00:36:17,011
What you just did was extremely reckless.
519
00:36:17,012 --> 00:36:19,138
I don't care.
520
00:36:21,765 --> 00:36:24,894
I'm making a statement tomorrow, Frank.
521
00:36:26,562 --> 00:36:28,856
- About pulling out of the race?
- Mm-mm.
522
00:36:28,857 --> 00:36:32,442
That's not enough. I...
523
00:36:33,903 --> 00:36:36,405
I need to stop hiding.
524
00:36:39,992 --> 00:36:42,036
Well, let's work together on the language.
525
00:36:42,037 --> 00:36:44,872
I have to do it on my own.
It's gotta be my own words.
526
00:36:44,873 --> 00:36:47,624
Look, Peter, this isn't just
about you anymore, all right?
527
00:36:47,625 --> 00:36:50,794
- Let me help you.
- I don't want your help.
528
00:36:53,255 --> 00:36:57,009
I didn't never ask your help
when you... I got arrested.
529
00:36:57,010 --> 00:36:59,053
When did your help ever help me?
530
00:37:01,346 --> 00:37:03,432
You can live your life the way you want to.
531
00:37:03,433 --> 00:37:06,185
I'm done being told how to live mine.
532
00:37:08,771 --> 00:37:11,774
Well, there has to be a
way to take responsibility
533
00:37:11,775 --> 00:37:15,444
without shattering everything.
534
00:37:18,155 --> 00:37:21,242
Are you at least willing
to have that discussion?
535
00:37:32,335 --> 00:37:35,089
[Garage door opening]
536
00:37:47,810 --> 00:37:51,105
- Do you want me to come upstairs?
- No.
537
00:38:12,501 --> 00:38:15,921
I know you're in a lot of pain, Peter.
538
00:38:18,215 --> 00:38:21,135
But I don't want you to
feel any pain tonight.
539
00:38:21,136 --> 00:38:23,720
Here. You can start fresh tomorrow.
540
00:38:23,721 --> 00:38:27,474
Go ahead. I won't judge you.
Hell, I'll even join you.
541
00:38:32,271 --> 00:38:34,356
Just relax.
542
00:38:35,816 --> 00:38:37,901
You're home now.
543
00:38:41,738 --> 00:38:44,407
[Sighs]
544
00:38:44,408 --> 00:38:46,493
Whatever it is you have to face tomorrow,
545
00:38:46,494 --> 00:38:48,954
you don't have to face it now.
546
00:38:50,706 --> 00:38:53,542
Right now it's just you and me.
547
00:38:57,420 --> 00:39:00,257
The rest of the world doesn't matter.
548
00:39:02,634 --> 00:39:05,512
Your children, Christina...
549
00:39:05,513 --> 00:39:07,639
they will forgive you,
550
00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:10,600
because you're loved, Peter.
551
00:39:11,935 --> 00:39:13,979
Failed.
552
00:39:16,982 --> 00:39:19,109
I failed myself.
553
00:39:19,110 --> 00:39:21,611
I failed my family.
554
00:39:22,905 --> 00:39:25,615
I failed the campaign.
555
00:39:27,910 --> 00:39:29,995
No, you haven't, Peter.
556
00:39:32,706 --> 00:39:34,791
May I?
557
00:39:50,599 --> 00:39:52,726
You know, when Claire
and I were first married,
558
00:39:52,727 --> 00:39:55,979
we talked about having children.
559
00:39:55,980 --> 00:39:59,066
I told her flat out I didn't want any.
560
00:39:59,067 --> 00:40:02,778
It was selfish but honest.
561
00:40:02,779 --> 00:40:05,655
I didn't have a
particularly happy childhood.
562
00:40:05,656 --> 00:40:07,866
I suspect you didn't either.
563
00:40:07,867 --> 00:40:09,201
No.
564
00:40:09,202 --> 00:40:11,870
You see, no person avoids pain.
565
00:40:11,871 --> 00:40:13,872
And I just didn't think it was right
566
00:40:13,873 --> 00:40:16,041
to bring a child in knowing that.
567
00:40:18,501 --> 00:40:22,214
But now when I think back, I...
568
00:40:22,215 --> 00:40:25,008
I realize that was cowardly.
569
00:40:27,928 --> 00:40:29,805
I see you,
570
00:40:29,806 --> 00:40:32,433
and I think, well, there's a brave man,
571
00:40:32,434 --> 00:40:34,517
far braver than me.
572
00:40:34,518 --> 00:40:37,396
[Whispering] I'm so tired.
573
00:40:39,148 --> 00:40:43,402
When I... when I think about... when I...
574
00:40:43,403 --> 00:40:46,113
I'm so tired.
575
00:40:49,825 --> 00:40:52,369
You should close your eyes.
576
00:40:55,538 --> 00:40:57,874
Let it all go.
577
00:41:01,211 --> 00:41:04,589
We have all the time in the world.
578
00:41:09,511 --> 00:41:11,263
Peter?
579
00:41:19,604 --> 00:41:21,690
Peter.
580
00:41:47,799 --> 00:41:50,427
[Wiping bottle down]
581
00:42:07,444 --> 00:42:10,155
[Engine starts]
582
00:43:25,730 --> 00:43:27,608
[Keys clatter]
583
00:43:38,868 --> 00:43:40,912
I walked back.
584
00:43:56,094 --> 00:43:58,680
Whatever happens in the next few hours,
585
00:43:58,681 --> 00:44:00,932
whatever you hear,
586
00:44:02,476 --> 00:44:04,769
we will never speak of it.
587
00:44:39,762 --> 00:44:41,682
Sir...
588
00:44:43,684 --> 00:44:46,727
I heard from Linda
about a half an hour ago.
589
00:44:46,728 --> 00:44:48,813
The President wants to meet with you.
590
00:44:48,814 --> 00:44:50,649
8:30.
591
00:44:52,859 --> 00:44:55,111
About what?
592
00:44:55,112 --> 00:44:57,531
I don't know.
593
00:45:07,541 --> 00:45:09,501
[Walker] Frank.
594
00:45:17,509 --> 00:45:20,387
Now, when you brought up
this idea, I wasn't sold.
595
00:45:20,388 --> 00:45:24,224
It struck me as both
desperate and careless.
596
00:45:24,225 --> 00:45:28,103
But then Linda laid out all the pros,
597
00:45:28,104 --> 00:45:30,855
and they clearly outweigh the cons.
598
00:45:30,856 --> 00:45:34,901
I explained our reasoning to Jim and hoped
he wouldn't think I was off my rocker.
599
00:45:34,902 --> 00:45:39,448
I did at first, but the President
made some very good arguments.
600
00:45:39,449 --> 00:45:41,824
It's a bold move, Frank.
I'm very impressed.
601
00:45:41,825 --> 00:45:44,369
Well, thank you, sir, for
being open to the idea.
602
00:45:44,370 --> 00:45:46,996
And thank you, Mr. President,
for taking the risk.
603
00:45:46,997 --> 00:45:48,998
We'll need to work this out step by step.
604
00:45:48,999 --> 00:45:51,543
- The execution has to be perfect.
- Where are things with Russo?
605
00:45:51,544 --> 00:45:53,712
- Any word from him yet?
- We're still trying to locate him.
606
00:45:53,713 --> 00:45:55,922
- Well, is there any cause for worry?
- It's been two days.
607
00:45:55,923 --> 00:45:58,216
I am a bit worried, I have to admit.
608
00:45:58,217 --> 00:46:00,427
I mean, this must be an extremely
difficult moment for him.
609
00:46:00,428 --> 00:46:02,220
We're hoping he'll reach out shortly.
610
00:46:02,221 --> 00:46:04,889
Let's get our people on it.
I wanna know where he is.
611
00:46:04,890 --> 00:46:06,975
Now, once he withdraws,
we have to move quickly.
612
00:46:06,976 --> 00:46:09,561
We'll make a joint
statement, as you proposed.
613
00:46:09,562 --> 00:46:11,563
It's a clear message, I think.
614
00:46:11,564 --> 00:46:14,232
Pennsylvanians matter to us, and
we're not gonna let them down.
615
00:46:14,233 --> 00:46:17,402
[Walker] That's right. I'll say that Jim's
an invaluable asset to the White House,
616
00:46:17,403 --> 00:46:19,946
but that I have great
admiration for the sacrifice
617
00:46:19,947 --> 00:46:21,948
he's willing to make for
the people of his home state.
618
00:46:21,949 --> 00:46:24,534
And you should not accept his
resignation until he's elected.
619
00:46:24,535 --> 00:46:28,079
- That will show your continuing commitment to him.
- I think that's a good idea.
620
00:46:28,080 --> 00:46:30,499
[Matthews] As long as I can devote
myself wholly to the campaign, I agree.
621
00:46:30,500 --> 00:46:33,502
Now, should Jim win, we'll need to
nominate a Vice President immediately.
622
00:46:33,503 --> 00:46:35,545
Linda, you're putting
together a list of names?
623
00:46:35,546 --> 00:46:37,589
Yes. And you can begin the vetting process
624
00:46:37,590 --> 00:46:39,174
as soon as you narrow down the choices.
625
00:46:39,175 --> 00:46:41,301
I already have a short
list of top contenders.
626
00:46:41,302 --> 00:46:44,102
- [Walker] I want your input on that, Jim.
- [Matthews] More than happy.
627
00:46:46,222 --> 00:46:48,141
Congressman?
628
00:46:50,268 --> 00:46:51,936
Congressman?
629
00:46:51,937 --> 00:46:53,854
[Garage door opening]
630
00:47:08,036 --> 00:47:09,746
We can use the existing infrastructure.
631
00:47:09,747 --> 00:47:11,623
Are you okay with Nash Aarons?
632
00:47:11,624 --> 00:47:14,459
I like Nash, but I'll want to
bring in some of my own people.
633
00:47:14,460 --> 00:47:16,628
Well, that won't be a
problem. Nash is a team player.
634
00:47:16,629 --> 00:47:19,880
And we can reallocate some of your
existing 2016 reelection funds...
635
00:47:19,881 --> 00:47:21,966
Excuse me. Linda.
636
00:47:22,883 --> 00:47:24,969
Peter Russo is dead.
637
00:47:26,012 --> 00:47:27,888
Suicide.
638
00:47:27,889 --> 00:47:31,142
He was found in his garage
with the car still running.
639
00:47:34,354 --> 00:47:36,857
I'm so sorry, Frank.
640
00:47:36,858 --> 00:47:40,569
- May I have a moment, sir?
- Of course.
641
00:47:40,570 --> 00:47:43,780
I will get more information
and start drafting a statement.
642
00:47:43,781 --> 00:47:46,907
Let's reschedule.
Whenever is best for Frank.

[Chimes]

[Female reporter] Congressman
Peter Russo was found dead
645
00:48:05,678 --> 00:48:08,137
early this morning in the parking garage...
646
00:48:08,138 --> 00:48:11,349
- why didn't we break this?
- ... Of his apartment building in Washington D.C.
647
00:48:11,350 --> 00:48:14,644
U.S. Secret Service Agents
discovered his body after reports
648
00:48:14,645 --> 00:48:17,480
- ... that Russo had been missing since Saturday.
- Fuck!
649
00:48:17,481 --> 00:48:20,817
His body was transferred
to the D.C. coroner's office
650
00:48:20,818 --> 00:48:25,321
where an autopsy is expected to
confirm his death as a suicide.
651
00:48:25,322 --> 00:48:27,783
- [Chimes]
- A junior congressman from Philadelphia...
652
00:48:27,784 --> 00:48:29,701
- Zoe.
- ... Russo was 36 years old...
653
00:48:29,702 --> 00:48:32,370
- Look at this.
- ... And is survived by two children.
654
00:48:32,371 --> 00:48:36,291
- I gotta get to the office.
- [Male reporter] Russo was in the midst of a heated battle
655
00:48:36,292 --> 00:48:38,460
for the governorship of Pennsylvania.
656
00:48:38,461 --> 00:48:41,755
He was last heard publicly during
a morning political radio show
657
00:48:41,756 --> 00:48:44,299
on Pittsburgh station WZPZ.
658
00:48:44,300 --> 00:48:47,636
Now, during the interview, he slurred
his words, he sounded disoriented...
659
00:48:47,637 --> 00:48:49,763
- Christina.
- ... Leading many to believe
660
00:48:49,764 --> 00:48:52,973
- ... that he had relapsed...
- Can you get me a train back to D.C.?
