1
00:00:00,001 --> 00:00:01,765
Everything's going to be fine.
2
00:00:01,834 --> 00:00:05,368
LBJ literally called his the
"ugliest thing he ever saw."
3
00:00:05,437 --> 00:00:07,603
LBJ must have been a very vain man.
4
00:00:07,672 --> 00:00:08,971
- You remember Clinton?
- I do.
5
00:00:09,040 --> 00:00:10,639
Then you remember how he got played.
6
00:00:10,708 --> 00:00:12,007
What? It's true.
7
00:00:12,076 --> 00:00:13,242
Shadow of a blue dress,
8
00:00:13,311 --> 00:00:14,843
painted right there beside him,
clear as day.
9
00:00:14,912 --> 00:00:16,245
Fitz, the artist you chose
10
00:00:16,314 --> 00:00:19,014
for your official presidential
portrait is phenomenal.
11
00:00:19,083 --> 00:00:20,816
You have nothing to worry about.
12
00:00:20,885 --> 00:00:22,017
Teddy Roosevelt didn't think he had
13
00:00:22,086 --> 00:00:23,285
anything to worry about, either.
14
00:00:23,354 --> 00:00:25,754
His artist chose to depict him
as a mewling cat.
15
00:00:25,823 --> 00:00:28,657
Now you're worried
about looking like a cat?
16
00:00:28,726 --> 00:00:29,992
You're enjoying this.
17
00:00:32,630 --> 00:00:34,363
You have no idea.
18
00:00:34,432 --> 00:00:35,698
Not helpful.
19
00:00:37,702 --> 00:00:40,836
I have to go. Mellie's being
questioned tomorrow.
20
00:00:40,905 --> 00:00:43,372
Right.
21
00:00:43,441 --> 00:00:45,074
I suppose resembling a cat
22
00:00:45,142 --> 00:00:47,409
should be the least of my worries
23
00:00:47,478 --> 00:00:50,112
when my ex-wife's presidency
is on the line, anyway.
24
00:01:01,025 --> 00:01:03,525
Fitz, I know whatever happens
with Mellie tomorrow
25
00:01:03,594 --> 00:01:06,495
is going to affect you, too.
26
00:01:06,564 --> 00:01:09,565
I know that it's your legacy,
too, your story.
27
00:01:09,634 --> 00:01:11,300
Exactly.
28
00:01:13,070 --> 00:01:15,804
So, how do you think
this story ends, Liv?
29
00:01:15,873 --> 00:01:18,574
Any ideas?
30
00:01:22,082 --> 00:01:27,082

00:01:27,418 --> 00:01:30,385
And then, after the teaser,
we hit Kaylee Myers at Justice,
32
00:01:30,454 --> 00:01:32,020
then we go to Michaels
at the White House.
33
00:01:32,104 --> 00:01:33,889
He'll lead into his donut, and then
his Q and A will be on the prompter.
34
00:01:33,958 --> 00:01:35,758
So you are telling me
that we are making television
35
00:01:35,826 --> 00:01:36,959
the same as we do every night?
36
00:01:37,028 --> 00:01:38,494
Was this the dream? What our mothers
37
00:01:38,562 --> 00:01:40,095
and grandmothers burned their bras for?
38
00:01:40,164 --> 00:01:42,064
So, that you would have
the cherished opportunity
39
00:01:42,133 --> 00:01:43,932
to be in these hallowed halls
and waste my time?
40
00:01:44,001 --> 00:01:45,467
Back away from me!
41
00:01:45,536 --> 00:01:47,670
Where's the countdown?
42
00:01:47,738 --> 00:01:50,205
And running, three, two...
43
00:01:50,274 --> 00:01:52,474
Lovers of Liberty, brace yourselves,
44
00:01:52,543 --> 00:01:54,677
for our top story is more salacious
45
00:01:54,745 --> 00:01:56,245
than the greatly respected
46
00:01:56,314 --> 00:01:59,648
fair and unbiased nightly news
program I usually bring you,
47
00:01:59,717 --> 00:02:01,784
but this is our reality.
48
00:02:01,852 --> 00:02:05,254
This is happening in America right now.
49
00:02:05,323 --> 00:02:07,423
President Melody Grant
will be questioned
50
00:02:07,491 --> 00:02:09,758
by a special prosecutor
as to whether or not
51
00:02:09,827 --> 00:02:11,794
she tried to kill Vice President Beene
52
00:02:11,862 --> 00:02:14,063
by paying an assassin to crash his plane
53
00:02:14,131 --> 00:02:16,632
into our beloved District of Columbia.
54
00:02:16,701 --> 00:02:18,567
Whoa! That's a mouthful.
55
00:02:18,636 --> 00:02:21,370
President Grant has, of course,
denied these charges publicly,
56
00:02:21,439 --> 00:02:23,906
but tomorrow the President
will be under oath.
57
00:02:23,974 --> 00:02:26,108
Will she risk perjury
and repeat that denial
58
00:02:26,177 --> 00:02:28,043
under the questioning of Lonnie Mencken?
59
00:02:28,112 --> 00:02:30,179
Only God and Mellie Grant
know the answer,
60
00:02:30,247 --> 00:02:32,981
and that will be the
moment you, Lovers of Liberty,
61
00:02:33,050 --> 00:02:34,650
find out the truth.
62
00:02:36,721 --> 00:02:38,654
On advice of counsel,
I respectfully decline
63
00:02:38,723 --> 00:02:40,556
to answer and assert
my Fifth Amendment privilege.
64
00:02:40,624 --> 00:02:42,875
- It's that simple.
- It's not that simple, Helena.
65
00:02:42,943 --> 00:02:44,309
I haven't done anything wrong!
66
00:02:44,378 --> 00:02:45,811
Madam President, as your attorney,
67
00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:47,946
I want to remind you that
invoking the Fifth Amendment...
68
00:02:48,015 --> 00:02:49,448
Is the quickest way to make it appear
69
00:02:49,517 --> 00:02:50,949
as though she has something to hide.
70
00:02:51,018 --> 00:02:52,618
The second you say those words,
71
00:02:52,686 --> 00:02:54,453
you give them everything they want.
72
00:02:54,522 --> 00:02:56,255
Answer the questions you're asked.
73
00:02:56,323 --> 00:02:59,291
"Is it true that Charlie worked
on your campaign?" "Yes, it is."
74
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:01,927
"Did you later hire Charlie
to assassinate Cyrus Beene?"
75
00:03:01,996 --> 00:03:03,095
"No, you did not."
76
00:03:03,164 --> 00:03:04,763
You make it sound like everything I have
77
00:03:04,832 --> 00:03:06,799
- isn't on the line right now.
- Tell the truth.
78
00:03:06,867 --> 00:03:10,269
Do not plead the Fifth.
The truth is your armor.
79
00:03:23,050 --> 00:03:26,885
Madam President,
I see you got your hair done.
80
00:03:26,954 --> 00:03:28,720
Camera's gonna love it!
81
00:03:32,526 --> 00:03:34,159
Do you, Melody Margaret Grant,
82
00:03:34,228 --> 00:03:36,261
solemnly swear to tell
the truth, the whole truth,
83
00:03:36,330 --> 00:03:38,130
and nothing but the truth,
so help you God?
84
00:03:38,199 --> 00:03:39,832
I do.
85
00:03:39,900 --> 00:03:42,835
Marcus Walker. Long time.
86
00:03:42,903 --> 00:03:45,104
Autumn. What brings you
to this side of town?
87
00:03:45,172 --> 00:03:46,805
My meeting at Justice let out early,
88
00:03:46,874 --> 00:03:49,374
so I'm going to play hooky for
a bit at the new Smithsonian.
89
00:03:49,443 --> 00:03:50,576
You should join me.
90
00:03:50,644 --> 00:03:52,344
I actually got a meeting
I should get to myself.
91
00:03:52,413 --> 00:03:53,545
You still at Agriculture?
92
00:03:53,614 --> 00:03:55,547
Agriculture? I'm on the Hill now.
93
00:03:55,616 --> 00:03:57,516
- Klein.
- Intel committee?
94
00:03:57,585 --> 00:03:58,617
Mm-hmm.
95
00:03:58,686 --> 00:04:00,252
What was the meeting about at Justice?
96
00:04:00,321 --> 00:04:01,620
- Hm?
- The meeting at Justice.
97
00:04:01,689 --> 00:04:02,821
What was it about?
98
00:04:02,890 --> 00:04:04,056
Let me put it this way...
99
00:04:04,125 --> 00:04:06,225
Be glad you don't work
at the White House anymore.
100
00:04:11,465 --> 00:04:14,867
Madam President, you do not deny
an association with the suspect
101
00:04:14,935 --> 00:04:17,970
currently in custody for
the hijacking of Air Force Two?
102
00:04:18,038 --> 00:04:19,271
That is correct.
103
00:04:22,176 --> 00:04:24,977
Were you aware that,
while working on your campaign,
104
00:04:25,045 --> 00:04:27,646
this man, Valentine Cascabel,
105
00:04:27,715 --> 00:04:29,615
a.k.a. Norman Talesai,
106
00:04:29,683 --> 00:04:31,783
a.k.a. Charlie,
107
00:04:31,852 --> 00:04:35,554
was also in the employ of
Olivia Pope and associates?
108
00:04:35,623 --> 00:04:37,523
I am aware. Yes.
109
00:04:40,694 --> 00:04:42,928
Madam President, why did you
fire Olivia Pope?
110
00:04:45,733 --> 00:04:46,999
Marcus!
111
00:04:47,067 --> 00:04:49,468
Mellie's about to get hit.
112
00:04:49,537 --> 00:04:51,136
Excuse me?
113
00:04:51,205 --> 00:04:53,505
Why did you fire
your former Chief of Staff,
114
00:04:53,574 --> 00:04:56,108
your current advisor, Olivia Pope?
115
00:04:57,778 --> 00:05:00,145
I didn't fire Ms. Pope. She resigned.
116
00:05:00,214 --> 00:05:03,949
And yet, here she is,
today, by your side.
117
00:05:04,018 --> 00:05:06,952
Ms. Pope and I worked together
118
00:05:07,021 --> 00:05:09,121
very closely, very intensely for
an extended period of time.
119
00:05:09,190 --> 00:05:11,557
First, in the campaign,
then here in the White House.
120
00:05:11,625 --> 00:05:14,259
After a while, tensions rose.
It happens.
121
00:05:14,328 --> 00:05:16,261
I see.
122
00:05:16,330 --> 00:05:18,864
These tensions... would
they have had anything to do
123
00:05:18,933 --> 00:05:20,732
with Ms. Pope's plot to assassinate
124
00:05:20,801 --> 00:05:22,534
President Rashad of Bashran?
125
00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:28,207
I don't know what you're talking about.
126
00:05:28,275 --> 00:05:30,842
President Rashad.
We need to do something now.
127
00:05:30,911 --> 00:05:33,645
- What are you saying?
- I'm not saying anything.
128
00:05:33,714 --> 00:05:35,113
I'm the President.
129
00:05:36,584 --> 00:05:38,250
I don't need to know the details.
130
00:05:38,319 --> 00:05:41,553
What I need is to guarantee myself
131
00:05:41,622 --> 00:05:43,555
some semblance of deniability, so...
132
00:05:43,624 --> 00:05:46,858
Consider it handled, Madam President.
133
00:05:46,927 --> 00:05:48,827
Mr. Mencken, I don't know what this is
134
00:05:48,896 --> 00:05:50,562
or what you think you're doing...
135
00:05:50,631 --> 00:05:51,797
I'm establishing motive
136
00:05:51,865 --> 00:05:54,266
for the hijacking
of Air Force Two, Ms. Young.
137
00:05:54,335 --> 00:05:58,070
Vice President Beene found out
about your assassination attempt
138
00:05:58,138 --> 00:05:59,671
on the Bashrani president.
139
00:05:59,740 --> 00:06:01,773
He disapproved, and when it became clear
140
00:06:01,842 --> 00:06:03,242
that he wouldn't stay silent,
141
00:06:03,310 --> 00:06:05,010
your solution was to kill him too,
142
00:06:05,079 --> 00:06:07,446
wasn't it, Madam President?
143
00:06:33,741 --> 00:06:35,507
On the advice of counsel,
144
00:06:35,576 --> 00:06:38,210
I respectfully decline to answer
145
00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:41,580
and assert my Fifth Amendment privilege.
146
00:06:44,184 --> 00:06:45,884
There it is.
147
00:06:45,953 --> 00:06:48,220
- We're done here.
- Very well.
148
00:06:48,289 --> 00:06:52,090
Perhaps Ms. Pope will be
able to answer my questions
149
00:06:52,159 --> 00:06:53,425
when we speak tomorrow.
150
00:06:53,494 --> 00:06:55,327
- That's...
- A subpoena.
151
00:06:55,396 --> 00:06:58,697
I look forward to our conversation.
152
00:07:11,667 --> 00:07:13,333
There's no way that video's admissible.
153
00:07:13,402 --> 00:07:14,934
How do they even have this?
154
00:07:15,003 --> 00:07:16,836
It's B613. There are cameras everywhere.
155
00:07:16,904 --> 00:07:18,104
We are living in a fishbowl.
156
00:07:18,172 --> 00:07:19,638
Tell me that won't hold up in court.
157
00:07:19,707 --> 00:07:20,840
Blame it on the PATRIOT Act.
158
00:07:20,908 --> 00:07:22,274
Once you start working
against the state,
159
00:07:22,343 --> 00:07:23,409
it's open season on privacy.
160
00:07:23,478 --> 00:07:24,877
I bet he was watching us.
161
00:07:24,946 --> 00:07:26,812
I bet he was in that dumb,
stupid pool of his,
162
00:07:26,881 --> 00:07:28,280
sitting in front of some monitor
163
00:07:28,349 --> 00:07:29,782
with that dumb, stupid face of his.
164
00:07:29,851 --> 00:07:32,017
Do you like that, Jake?
Are you proud of yourself?
165
00:07:32,086 --> 00:07:33,452
What if Liv doesn't testify?
166
00:07:33,521 --> 00:07:34,587
She'll be held in contempt.
167
00:07:34,655 --> 00:07:35,988
Or worse, she'll look guilty.
168
00:07:36,057 --> 00:07:37,823
We need to get up to the Hill...
before they vote to impeach.
169
00:07:37,892 --> 00:07:39,024
Let them know they're being played.
170
00:07:39,093 --> 00:07:40,126
Waste of time.
171
00:07:40,194 --> 00:07:41,494
Jake Ballard's lying
and we're letting him.
172
00:07:41,562 --> 00:07:43,062
- We need to get ahead of this.
- I am telling you.
173
00:07:43,131 --> 00:07:44,196
- It won't work.
- Why not?
174
00:07:44,265 --> 00:07:46,832
Because we're already behind!
175
00:07:46,901 --> 00:07:49,268
Congress knew about that tape
before we did.
176
00:07:49,337 --> 00:07:50,770
Jake made sure of that.
177
00:07:50,838 --> 00:07:53,339
The narrative has been set.
They have us in a corner.
178
00:07:55,109 --> 00:07:56,709
We're clear about what happens next.
179
00:07:56,778 --> 00:07:58,778
Oh, yeah. Inquiry officially
turns its attention
180
00:07:58,846 --> 00:08:03,015
to Olivia Carolyn Pope, just
as Admiral Ballard suggested.
181
00:08:03,084 --> 00:08:05,751
Lonnie, do I detect a problem?
182
00:08:06,721 --> 00:08:09,855
Look, I don't kid myself about
what we're doing here...
183
00:08:09,924 --> 00:08:12,491
conspiracy to overthrow the
President of the United States,
184
00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:14,260
high treason.
I know what I signed up for.
185
00:08:14,328 --> 00:08:15,661
And you know why.
186
00:08:15,730 --> 00:08:17,363
All you do, every law you break,
187
00:08:17,431 --> 00:08:18,998
is for your country, for your son.
188
00:08:19,066 --> 00:08:20,766
I know why I'm here, Vice President.
189
00:08:20,835 --> 00:08:22,301
Why is he here?
190
00:08:22,370 --> 00:08:23,669
- Who?
- Jake Ballard.
191
00:08:23,738 --> 00:08:25,271
He's a ghost.
192
00:08:25,339 --> 00:08:27,540
Jacob Ballard didn't exist
before joining the Navy.
193
00:08:27,608 --> 00:08:29,642
You've been looking into him?
194
00:08:29,710 --> 00:08:32,011
How does a man without a past
get so lucky?
195
00:08:32,079 --> 00:08:35,080
How does he climb so far, so fast?
196
00:08:35,149 --> 00:08:37,917
He might be pretty,
but he's not that pretty.
197
00:08:37,985 --> 00:08:39,819
There's something else going on here.
198
00:08:45,526 --> 00:08:47,259
Hey.
199
00:08:47,328 --> 00:08:49,195
I think I'm going to work from home.
200
00:08:49,263 --> 00:08:50,996
That's dinner?
201
00:08:51,065 --> 00:08:52,598
Yeah, and breakfast and lunch.
202
00:08:52,667 --> 00:08:54,333
We've been going at this so hard
203
00:08:54,402 --> 00:08:55,835
I don't think I've eaten since...
204
00:08:55,903 --> 00:08:57,002
wait, yesterday?
205
00:08:57,071 --> 00:08:58,337
Yeah, yesterday.
206
00:08:58,406 --> 00:08:59,972
We wouldn't be putting
ourselves through this
207
00:09:00,041 --> 00:09:01,841
if Liv had just killed Cyrus
when she had the chance.
208
00:09:01,909 --> 00:09:03,142
We're happy she didn't.
209
00:09:03,211 --> 00:09:05,411
- Yeah, but...
- We're happy she didn't.
210
00:09:05,479 --> 00:09:06,879
You're just going to have to accept
211
00:09:06,948 --> 00:09:08,514
that, as long as Charlie's behind bars,
212
00:09:08,583 --> 00:09:10,216
I'm not going to be happy
about anything.
213
00:09:11,752 --> 00:09:13,485
Well, blessed be.
214
00:09:13,554 --> 00:09:15,054
I was told people still worked here,
215
00:09:15,122 --> 00:09:16,455
but I wasn't sure I believed it.
216
00:09:16,524 --> 00:09:17,590
Can I help you?
217
00:09:17,658 --> 00:09:18,791
Yes, you can.
218
00:09:18,860 --> 00:09:20,392
You see, there is a rumor,
219
00:09:20,461 --> 00:09:22,461
a rumor that Olivia Pope
has been subpoenaed
220
00:09:22,530 --> 00:09:24,096
to testify against the President.
221
00:09:24,165 --> 00:09:25,731
I wonder if you would like to comment.
222
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:27,066
Why would we comment against Liv?
223
00:09:27,134 --> 00:09:28,534
Because not too long ago,
it was this firm
224
00:09:28,603 --> 00:09:29,969
that leaked the news that Olivia Pope
225
00:09:30,037 --> 00:09:31,270
had been fired by the White House,
226
00:09:31,339 --> 00:09:33,539
and so I presume that you and Miss Pope
227
00:09:33,608 --> 00:09:36,108
were not on ideal terms,
so can you help me?
228
00:09:36,177 --> 00:09:38,544
We can help you. Help you find the door.
229
00:09:38,613 --> 00:09:40,646
It's right there right behind you.
230
00:09:40,715 --> 00:09:44,016
To be clear, if retribution
isn't incentive enough
231
00:09:44,085 --> 00:09:45,851
to speak out against Olivia Pope,
232
00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:48,721
I'm prepared to pay you or at
least buy you a proper meal.
233
00:09:48,789 --> 00:09:52,024
No, I like cereal.
It's full of nutrients.
234
00:09:53,394 --> 00:09:54,860
Let me be blunt, Miss Perkins.
235
00:09:54,929 --> 00:09:57,529
Lawyers are expensive, and you
are going to need a good one
236
00:09:57,598 --> 00:09:59,665
to liberate your baby daddy.
237
00:09:59,734 --> 00:10:01,000
Is that the word?
238
00:10:01,068 --> 00:10:04,403
One thing I remember from my
brief tenure as President...
239
00:10:04,472 --> 00:10:08,540
ugly things happen to people
in the bowels of the Pentagon.
240
00:10:10,778 --> 00:10:14,546
Well, if you change your mind,
you can call me at the studio.
241
00:10:16,784 --> 00:10:18,417
I'm sure my Lovers of Liberty
242
00:10:18,486 --> 00:10:20,753
would be quite excited
to hear your story.
243
00:10:20,821 --> 00:10:23,355
Have a blessed evening.
244
00:10:42,209 --> 00:10:43,709
Jake.
245
00:10:43,778 --> 00:10:45,311
Give the lady a prize.
246
00:10:49,016 --> 00:10:52,418
Am I supposed to be afraid of you?
247
00:10:52,486 --> 00:10:54,219
Is this supposed to be scary?
248
00:10:54,288 --> 00:10:55,621
No, I brought you something.
249
00:10:55,690 --> 00:10:57,089
You brought me something?
250
00:10:57,158 --> 00:10:58,991
A gift.
251
00:11:03,164 --> 00:11:04,730
Go ahead. Take it.
252
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:07,900
- What is that?
- Sand.
253
00:11:09,603 --> 00:11:12,204
It's from the island.
Sand from the islands.
254
00:11:12,273 --> 00:11:14,873
My little piece of the sun, our sun.
255
00:11:14,942 --> 00:11:16,575
Jake...
256
00:11:16,644 --> 00:11:18,510
Here. I want you to have it.
257
00:11:18,579 --> 00:11:19,945
I don't want it.
258
00:11:21,215 --> 00:11:22,681
Yeah, I didn't think so.
259
00:11:24,418 --> 00:11:27,619
I would never call myself
a happy person.
260
00:11:27,688 --> 00:11:29,555
Not coming from the people I come from,
261
00:11:29,623 --> 00:11:31,323
the trash that I come from.
262
00:11:32,593 --> 00:11:34,660
But I was happy once.
263
00:11:34,729 --> 00:11:37,563
That island made me happy,
being on that island.
264
00:11:37,631 --> 00:11:41,867
My feet on the sand,
the light on my face.
265
00:11:44,271 --> 00:11:45,804
Standing in the sun.
266
00:11:45,873 --> 00:11:48,240
I was happy standing in the sun...
267
00:11:48,309 --> 00:11:50,142
with you.
268
00:11:50,211 --> 00:11:52,378
Lessons learned, huh?
269
00:11:52,446 --> 00:11:55,381
Jake, we never had a chance.
270
00:11:55,449 --> 00:11:56,915
Not a real one.
271
00:11:56,984 --> 00:11:58,484
- My father...
- Our father.
272
00:11:58,552 --> 00:12:00,319
And we did. We had a chance.
273
00:12:02,757 --> 00:12:05,057
But you had things
you wanted to accomplish,
274
00:12:05,126 --> 00:12:07,526
presidents you wanted to make,
and now so do I.
275
00:12:09,030 --> 00:12:10,195
Don't do this.
276
00:12:10,264 --> 00:12:11,663
I'm taking what is mine,
277
00:12:11,732 --> 00:12:13,532
and you will not stand in my way.
278
00:12:13,601 --> 00:12:15,334
Tomorrow when you are questioned,
279
00:12:15,403 --> 00:12:18,037
you will tell Lonnie
that you killed President Rashad
280
00:12:18,105 --> 00:12:19,304
at Mellie's request.
281
00:12:19,373 --> 00:12:21,840
You will implicate the
President of the United States
282
00:12:21,909 --> 00:12:23,976
and I will make sure
that you are pardoned
283
00:12:24,045 --> 00:12:25,944
as soon as Cyrus becomes President.
284
00:12:26,013 --> 00:12:28,147
You don't have to be this person.
285
00:12:28,215 --> 00:12:30,149
This isn't you.
286
00:12:30,217 --> 00:12:32,317
- I know you.
- No.
287
00:12:32,386 --> 00:12:36,422
You only dealt with me,
treated me like a human being
288
00:12:36,490 --> 00:12:39,058
as long as I carried your bags,
fetched your toys,
289
00:12:39,126 --> 00:12:42,594
kept you warm and defended,
like a good watchdog.
290
00:12:44,865 --> 00:12:48,567
The thing is, Olivia,
291
00:12:48,636 --> 00:12:51,136
if you starve a dog long enough,
292
00:12:51,205 --> 00:12:53,639
it will tear you to pieces.
293
00:13:09,604 --> 00:13:11,104
Tracking the hacker
who hijacked Air Force Two
294
00:13:11,173 --> 00:13:12,472
was a dead end, literally.
295
00:13:12,541 --> 00:13:14,173
There was nothing left
that connects him to Cyrus?
296
00:13:14,242 --> 00:13:15,875
There is nothing left that
connects him to hacking.
297
00:13:22,183 --> 00:13:25,651
So we can't nail him
on the Air Force Two thing.
298
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:27,386
Fine. What if we went further back?
299
00:13:27,455 --> 00:13:29,322
Cyrus Beene is not lacking in past sins.
300
00:13:29,390 --> 00:13:30,456
- Like Defiance.
- Exactly.
301
00:13:30,525 --> 00:13:31,657
The man rigged an election.
302
00:13:31,726 --> 00:13:33,125
Election rigging blows back on Liv.
303
00:13:33,194 --> 00:13:34,260
And Mellie. It would just be
304
00:13:34,329 --> 00:13:35,628
another article of her impeachment.
305
00:13:36,798 --> 00:13:38,130
Okay. H... How about this?
306
00:13:38,199 --> 00:13:40,766
Cyrus ordered a drone strike
against Liv. I was there.
307
00:13:40,835 --> 00:13:42,301
- What?
- When you were kidnapped,
308
00:13:42,370 --> 00:13:44,303
directing the CIA to take out
an American citizen.
309
00:13:44,372 --> 00:13:45,738
That's something, right?
310
00:13:45,807 --> 00:13:48,241
It would mean telling the world
that Fitz went to war
311
00:13:48,309 --> 00:13:49,475
for his girlfriend. No.
312
00:13:51,446 --> 00:13:54,046
Cyrus killed Amanda Tanner.
313
00:13:54,115 --> 00:13:55,781
- Correction.
- Charlie killed Amanda Tanner,
314
00:13:55,850 --> 00:13:57,950
and I think we can all agree
he's been through enough.
315
00:13:58,019 --> 00:13:59,585
And the last thing Mellie needs
right now
316
00:13:59,654 --> 00:14:01,687
is for Fitz's philandering
to be back in the news.
317
00:14:03,558 --> 00:14:05,124
Oh, what about Jake?!
318
00:14:05,193 --> 00:14:06,626
Jake is his muscle.
319
00:14:06,694 --> 00:14:09,161
We take him off the board
and Cyrus is exposed.
320
00:14:09,230 --> 00:14:10,396
How? Everything Jake did
321
00:14:10,465 --> 00:14:12,398
was with my blessing
or in the name of Mellie.
322
00:14:12,467 --> 00:14:15,568
Recently, sure, but returning
to past sins for a second,
323
00:14:15,637 --> 00:14:17,403
he did act alone
when he murdered James.
324
00:14:17,472 --> 00:14:18,671
David was there.
325
00:14:18,740 --> 00:14:20,740
Killing James was
his first act as Command,
326
00:14:20,808 --> 00:14:22,441
to keep him from telling the world
327
00:14:22,510 --> 00:14:24,110
that Sally Langston
murdered her husband,
328
00:14:24,178 --> 00:14:27,280
a murder that Charlie and Quinn
covered up for B613.
329
00:14:31,653 --> 00:14:33,119
It's no use.
330
00:14:33,187 --> 00:14:35,321
All roads lead back to us or B613.
331
00:14:35,390 --> 00:14:37,857
Anything we accuse them of
hurts us, too.
332
00:14:41,796 --> 00:14:44,297
Former Chief of Staff
Olivia Pope will be testifying
333
00:14:44,365 --> 00:14:45,798
in a mere matter of hours now.
334
00:14:45,867 --> 00:14:47,433
Exactly what she will have to say
335
00:14:47,502 --> 00:14:49,802
to Special Prosecutor Mencken
is still anyone's guess.
336
00:14:49,871 --> 00:14:53,105
However, Washington insiders
are anticipating a smoking gun.
337
00:14:53,174 --> 00:14:55,074
After Ms. Pope was served her subpoena,
338
00:14:55,143 --> 00:14:56,442
the House Judiciary Committee
339
00:14:56,511 --> 00:14:58,344
began drafting articles of impeachment.
340
00:15:32,914 --> 00:15:36,782
How many times have I told you,
you have to be what?
341
00:15:36,851 --> 00:15:38,517
You are the gladiator.
342
00:15:38,586 --> 00:15:41,354
I would gladly follow you over a cliff.
343
00:15:41,422 --> 00:15:45,224
You have to be what?!
344
00:15:45,293 --> 00:15:47,093
Twice.
345
00:15:47,161 --> 00:15:48,594
What?!
346
00:15:48,663 --> 00:15:50,696
"We the people"... it's everything.
347
00:15:50,765 --> 00:15:52,965
Twice as good.
348
00:15:53,034 --> 00:15:57,103
Twice as good as them to
get half of what they have.
349
00:15:57,171 --> 00:15:59,472
But you got to show up.
You got to be a warrior.
350
00:15:59,540 --> 00:16:01,240
You don't get to pick and choose
351
00:16:01,309 --> 00:16:03,676
when the real Olivia Pope
walks through that door.
352
00:16:03,745 --> 00:16:06,145
If there are no more white hats,
353
00:16:06,214 --> 00:16:08,280
if the deck is always stacked,
354
00:16:08,349 --> 00:16:11,217
and if everyone you love is a monster,
355
00:16:11,285 --> 00:16:13,819
there is, in fact, someone worth saving.
356
00:16:15,556 --> 00:16:17,223
- Who?
- Everyone!
357
00:16:17,291 --> 00:16:20,826
- You are the gladiator.
- Everyone is worth saving,
358
00:16:20,895 --> 00:16:22,762
even the monsters, even the demons.
359
00:16:22,830 --> 00:16:26,198
Everyone is worth saving.
360
00:16:26,267 --> 00:16:28,701
You have to be what?
361
00:16:28,770 --> 00:16:30,236
But you got to show up.
362
00:16:30,304 --> 00:16:31,737
You got to be a warrior.
363
00:16:31,806 --> 00:16:33,272
"We the people"... it's everything.
364
00:16:33,341 --> 00:16:36,175
In the face of darkness,
365
00:16:36,244 --> 00:16:39,278
you drag everyone into the light.
366
00:16:39,347 --> 00:16:41,547
That is the point.
367
00:16:41,616 --> 00:16:45,251
At least, I'd like to think
that is the point of you.
368
00:16:45,319 --> 00:16:47,887
It's a new world.
369
00:16:57,899 --> 00:17:00,666
Do you, Olivia Carolyn Pope,
solemnly swear
370
00:17:00,735 --> 00:17:02,234
to tell the truth, the whole truth,
371
00:17:02,303 --> 00:17:04,003
and nothing but the truth,
so help you God?
372
00:17:04,072 --> 00:17:05,604
I do.
373
00:17:05,673 --> 00:17:08,207
Ms. Pope, you were present
for the interview
374
00:17:08,276 --> 00:17:09,575
of President Grant.
375
00:17:09,644 --> 00:17:12,411
You are familiar with the video
surveillance recording
376
00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:14,246
presented as evidence at said interview.
377
00:17:14,315 --> 00:17:15,315
Yes.
378
00:17:15,383 --> 00:17:17,616
Yes. With that in mind,
379
00:17:17,685 --> 00:17:19,752
I prefer to get right to the point.
380
00:17:19,821 --> 00:17:21,787
Did President Grant give you an order
381
00:17:21,856 --> 00:17:23,656
to assassinate President Rashad?
382
00:17:35,903 --> 00:17:38,604
There are many presumptions
included in that question.
383
00:17:38,673 --> 00:17:40,239
It's a simple question... yes or no?
384
00:17:40,308 --> 00:17:41,707
- Did the President...
- That's presuming
385
00:17:41,776 --> 00:17:43,209
that President Rashad was assassinated.
386
00:17:43,277 --> 00:17:45,177
There's evidence to that
submitted to the record,
387
00:17:45,246 --> 00:17:46,946
- evidence provided...
- Evidence is evidence.
388
00:17:47,014 --> 00:17:48,614
- It's not fact, it's not...
- I understand
389
00:17:48,683 --> 00:17:50,549
you don't want to answer
the question, Ms. Pope,
390
00:17:50,618 --> 00:17:52,118
but you have been compelled to answer
391
00:17:52,186 --> 00:17:55,121
by the authority vested in me
by the Justice Department
392
00:17:55,189 --> 00:17:57,356
and the Constitution itself.
393
00:17:57,425 --> 00:18:00,993
So you can answer
or you can plead the Fifth.
394
00:18:01,062 --> 00:18:05,331
I remind you... You're under oath.
395
00:18:10,471 --> 00:18:12,972
Now...
396
00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:16,509
did President Grant give you an order
397
00:18:16,577 --> 00:18:18,811
to assassinate President Rashad?
398
00:18:24,452 --> 00:18:26,185
No, I did.
399
00:18:28,456 --> 00:18:30,723
- You did?
- I gave the order
400
00:18:30,792 --> 00:18:33,359
by the authority vested in me
401
00:18:33,427 --> 00:18:37,296
by my post as Command of B613,
402
00:18:37,365 --> 00:18:39,498
a secret intelligence unit walled off
403
00:18:39,567 --> 00:18:41,901
from all other agencies
within the U.S. government.
404
00:18:41,969 --> 00:18:44,470
An organization that
has existed for decades,
405
00:18:44,539 --> 00:18:48,040
an organization being run by
Jake Ballard out of the old pool
406
00:18:48,109 --> 00:18:51,110
under the White House
briefing room at this moment.
407
00:18:51,179 --> 00:18:53,145
An organization that is secretly funded
408
00:18:53,214 --> 00:18:55,014
through a loophole
in the defense budget.
409
00:18:55,082 --> 00:18:56,749
Hold it. Back up right there.
410
00:18:56,818 --> 00:18:58,784
You're admitting to the assassination
411
00:18:58,853 --> 00:19:01,053
of President Rashad on behalf
of President Grant?
412
00:19:01,122 --> 00:19:03,656
No, on behalf of the Republic,
which B613 has protected
413
00:19:03,724 --> 00:19:05,858
or pretended to protect
for the last 30 years.
414
00:19:05,927 --> 00:19:09,695
Let me get this...
you're asking me to believe
415
00:19:09,764 --> 00:19:12,064
that there is a secret CIA
416
00:19:12,133 --> 00:19:14,533
being controlled from the White House?
417
00:19:14,602 --> 00:19:16,368
No, you're not getting it.
418
00:19:16,437 --> 00:19:18,504
This deep-state intelligence agency
419
00:19:18,573 --> 00:19:20,806
is not controlled from the White House.
420
00:19:20,875 --> 00:19:22,641
It controls the White House.
421
00:19:27,248 --> 00:19:29,215
Why don't we take a break?
422
00:19:37,992 --> 00:19:39,525
Are you done with Olivia Pope already?
423
00:19:39,594 --> 00:19:41,093
You must have made quick work of her.
424
00:19:41,162 --> 00:19:42,595
Step aside, Admiral Ballard.
425
00:20:10,291 --> 00:20:11,824
What the hell do you think you're doing?
426
00:20:11,893 --> 00:20:13,692
Standing in the sun.
427
00:20:16,958 --> 00:20:18,492
You're going to have to say that again.
428
00:20:18,561 --> 00:20:22,595
She outed B613,
outed herself as Command.
429
00:20:22,663 --> 00:20:25,897
So it's true.
Everything Olivia Pope told me.
430
00:20:25,966 --> 00:20:27,432
I'm sorry. Is that camera on?
431
00:20:27,501 --> 00:20:29,301
I'm not seeing the little red light.
432
00:20:29,369 --> 00:20:32,304
- This B613... it exists?
- Oh, right.
433
00:20:32,372 --> 00:20:34,139
It's probably because
you haven't served me
434
00:20:34,207 --> 00:20:36,041
with one of your subpoenas,
which means...
435
00:20:36,109 --> 00:20:38,143
and correct me if I'm wrong...
436
00:20:38,211 --> 00:20:40,545
but I don't have to answer
a single one of your questions.
437
00:20:40,614 --> 00:20:43,415
No, not yet, but you will.
438
00:20:43,483 --> 00:20:45,450
I'm afraid I'm not much
of a computer guy.
439
00:20:45,519 --> 00:20:46,918
Old dog, new tricks, I guess.
440
00:20:46,987 --> 00:20:49,487
But I have a couple of young
eggheads down in my office
441
00:20:49,556 --> 00:20:51,222
who can't get enough of that stuff.
442
00:20:51,291 --> 00:20:53,625
And I bet it's going to
be like Christmas morning
443
00:20:53,694 --> 00:20:56,528
when they open up all those
neat toys you have in that pool.
444
00:20:56,597 --> 00:20:59,598
And then you will be served
and that camera will be on
445
00:20:59,666 --> 00:21:01,800
and you will answer every question.
446
00:21:04,338 --> 00:21:05,637
You have something?
447
00:21:05,706 --> 00:21:07,372
We're at the location
that you specified, sir,
448
00:21:07,441 --> 00:21:08,540
but there's nothing here.
449
00:21:08,609 --> 00:21:10,575
Wait, you mean there's
nothing on the servers?
450
00:21:10,644 --> 00:21:12,877
There are no servers.
It's just an empty pool, sir.
451
00:21:12,946 --> 00:21:14,679
- What, that's...
- We can keep looking.
452
00:21:16,850 --> 00:21:20,151
Never mind. That will be all.
453
00:21:21,455 --> 00:21:23,088
You take me for a fool?
454
00:21:23,156 --> 00:21:25,023
You really don't want me to answer that,
455
00:21:25,092 --> 00:21:26,191
but it would be foolish
456
00:21:26,259 --> 00:21:28,960
to pursue this B613 thing any longer.
457
00:21:32,265 --> 00:21:34,099
You want my advice?
458
00:21:34,167 --> 00:21:36,368
Forget Olivia Pope's testimony.
Make it disappear.
459
00:21:36,436 --> 00:21:38,236
In fact, I'll take care of that for you.
460
00:21:38,305 --> 00:21:39,804
The card's still in here, right?
461
00:21:39,873 --> 00:21:44,442
Yep. I'm also going to need
the transcripts
462
00:21:44,511 --> 00:21:46,478
when you get a chance.
463
00:21:46,546 --> 00:21:48,747
Oh, that twinge you're feeling
464
00:21:48,815 --> 00:21:51,416
in the pit of your stomach right now?
465
00:21:51,485 --> 00:21:52,917
That means you're in over your head,
466
00:21:52,986 --> 00:21:54,919
messing with forces way
beyond your comprehension.
467
00:21:54,988 --> 00:21:56,321
Trust it.
468
00:21:56,390 --> 00:21:57,622
Walk away.
469
00:22:01,094 --> 00:22:03,161
- He what?
- Buried your testimony.
470
00:22:03,230 --> 00:22:04,663
Jake probably covered everything up.
471
00:22:04,731 --> 00:22:05,964
Thank God.
472
00:22:06,033 --> 00:22:07,866
I hate to say it, but Jake
just helped us out big time.
473
00:22:07,934 --> 00:22:09,134
- No.
- What were you...
474
00:22:09,202 --> 00:22:12,070
Were you out of your mind?
475
00:22:12,139 --> 00:22:15,674
I am not crazy and my testimony
was not a mistake.
476
00:22:15,742 --> 00:22:17,442
The truth is the answer.
477
00:22:17,511 --> 00:22:19,577
It has to come out, all of it.
478
00:22:19,646 --> 00:22:21,780
The existence of B613
falls on all of us.
479
00:22:21,848 --> 00:22:23,915
It makes us complicit in...
480
00:22:23,984 --> 00:22:25,884
I don't even know how many crimes.
481
00:22:25,952 --> 00:22:28,386
Treason, for starters,
which is punishable by death,
482
00:22:28,455 --> 00:22:30,455
so the hundreds of others
don't really matter.
483
00:22:30,524 --> 00:22:31,623
Treason, Olivia.
484
00:22:31,692 --> 00:22:33,758
You didn't know about
the killing of Rashad,
485
00:22:33,827 --> 00:22:35,960
and you can deny you knew
anything about B613.
486
00:22:36,029 --> 00:22:37,929
Or you can tell the truth.
487
00:22:37,998 --> 00:22:39,364
The truth?
488
00:22:39,433 --> 00:22:40,565
The truth.
489
00:22:40,634 --> 00:22:43,968
It's all we have now
to stop Jake and Cyrus.
490
00:22:44,037 --> 00:22:45,937
The only way to end this all
491
00:22:46,006 --> 00:22:48,440
is to open the lid on this
secret underground world
492
00:22:48,508 --> 00:22:49,841
and fill it with light.
493
00:22:49,910 --> 00:22:51,209
We have to speak up.
494
00:22:51,278 --> 00:22:52,510
And say what?!
495
00:22:52,579 --> 00:22:53,812
"Sorry, America.
496
00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:56,281
You actually have no control
over your government."
497
00:22:56,349 --> 00:22:58,383
- I don't know.
- So what exactly is your plan?
498
00:22:58,452 --> 00:22:59,551
I don't know.
499
00:23:02,456 --> 00:23:06,291
All I know is this is bigger than us.
500
00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:08,426
This is about the country.
501
00:23:08,495 --> 00:23:10,161
This is about patriotism.
502
00:23:10,230 --> 00:23:12,430
The end of politics,
503
00:23:12,499 --> 00:23:14,499
the beginning of leadership.
504
00:23:14,568 --> 00:23:18,169
It all has to come down,
no matter the cost.
505
00:23:18,238 --> 00:23:21,072
We have to admit our sins,
to clear the air
506
00:23:21,141 --> 00:23:23,541
for the sake of the future
of this nation!
507
00:23:23,610 --> 00:23:25,744
If people know what's been happening
508
00:23:25,812 --> 00:23:28,513
under their noses for
the last three decades...
509
00:23:28,582 --> 00:23:30,315
They would pick up their pitchforks
510
00:23:30,383 --> 00:23:31,950
and their semi-automatic rifles,
511
00:23:32,018 --> 00:23:33,618
they would storm the gate.
512
00:23:33,687 --> 00:23:36,054
They would lock us all away forever!
513
00:23:36,123 --> 00:23:38,156
- That's the nice version.
- Maybe.
514
00:23:38,225 --> 00:23:39,924
Or maybe they'll wake up.
515
00:23:39,993 --> 00:23:41,826
Or maybe they'll take
their country back.
516
00:23:41,895 --> 00:23:43,228
Wake up?
517
00:23:43,296 --> 00:23:45,363
You say that like it's a good thing.
518
00:23:45,432 --> 00:23:47,599
- People are...
- Don't say "stupid."
519
00:23:47,667 --> 00:23:49,634
Unpredictable.
520
00:23:51,204 --> 00:23:56,241
We have no way to control what
happens to us if this gets out.
521
00:23:56,309 --> 00:23:59,644
The truth is scary,
but it is also powerful,
522
00:23:59,713 --> 00:24:03,148
and it is the best,
the only weapon we have
523
00:24:03,216 --> 00:24:06,985
to keep Jake and Cyrus out of
power and save this country.
524
00:24:07,053 --> 00:24:11,122
Mellie and me. You made us Presidents.
525
00:24:11,191 --> 00:24:13,925
What you're suggesting would
strip us of all of our power,
526
00:24:13,994 --> 00:24:15,426
all our credibility, our legacy,
527
00:24:15,495 --> 00:24:18,129
our ability to make positive
change in this world.
528
00:24:18,198 --> 00:24:20,965
Your ludicrous confession
would have defined everything
529
00:24:21,034 --> 00:24:23,568
I've done as President,
everything Mellie has done,
530
00:24:23,637 --> 00:24:26,738
and kill all my efforts for my
foundation to help this country.
531
00:24:26,807 --> 00:24:28,473
Do you think if there were any other way
532
00:24:28,542 --> 00:24:29,607
that I would have done this?
533
00:24:29,676 --> 00:24:32,076
Do you think I want to go down
534
00:24:32,145 --> 00:24:34,712
for what I did for Fitz
and Mellie Grant,
535
00:24:34,781 --> 00:24:36,147
for this country?
536
00:24:36,216 --> 00:24:39,250
We are not the heroes of this story.
537
00:24:39,319 --> 00:24:40,985
We are the villains.
538
00:24:41,054 --> 00:24:43,254
This is your chance to be a hero.
539
00:24:43,323 --> 00:24:45,557
This is positive change.
540
00:24:46,626 --> 00:24:50,094
The lid is coming off.
I will make sure of it.
541
00:24:50,180 --> 00:24:51,646
I will find a way.
542
00:24:51,715 --> 00:24:55,416
And when it does, I can't protect you.
543
00:24:55,485 --> 00:24:57,986
I can't even protect myself.
544
00:25:01,191 --> 00:25:05,894
So decide whether
you want to dodge and weave
545
00:25:05,962 --> 00:25:07,795
and protect your legacies
546
00:25:07,864 --> 00:25:12,100
or stand before the world
and admit our sins
547
00:25:12,169 --> 00:25:15,503
and hope that the next
generation of leaders
548
00:25:15,572 --> 00:25:17,505
decide to be better than we were.
549
00:25:31,597 --> 00:25:33,763
You told Lonnie Mencken about B613?
550
00:25:33,832 --> 00:25:36,065
I knew it. I knew they were
backing you into a corner
551
00:25:36,133 --> 00:25:37,399
and you were going to do
something drastic,
552
00:25:37,468 --> 00:25:39,201
- but this is suicide.
- Enough.
553
00:25:39,269 --> 00:25:42,270
I can't have this conversation.
I've had this conversation enough today.
554
00:25:42,339 --> 00:25:44,406
I don't need a lecture. I need help.
555
00:25:44,475 --> 00:25:45,941
Lonnie knows what he knows.
556
00:25:46,010 --> 00:25:47,809
I need a way to convince him to act.
557
00:25:47,878 --> 00:25:48,977
I can get my toolbox.
558
00:25:49,046 --> 00:25:51,046
That's the wrong kind of pressure.
559
00:25:51,115 --> 00:25:54,316
No, we don't need a pair of
pliers to change Lonnie's mind.
560
00:25:54,385 --> 00:25:56,518
We can let America do it for us.
561
00:25:58,155 --> 00:25:59,521
A super-secret spy organization?
562
00:25:59,590 --> 00:26:01,156
How stupid must you consider me to be?
563
00:26:01,225 --> 00:26:03,425
This isn't a scoop.
This is some juvenile attempt
564
00:26:03,494 --> 00:26:05,360
to bamboozle me
into spreading fake news.
565
00:26:05,429 --> 00:26:07,796
I am here because
Cyrus Beene is the devil.
566
00:26:07,865 --> 00:26:09,164
You already know that.
567
00:26:09,233 --> 00:26:11,166
What you don't know is that
he's corrupted Lonnie Mencken,
568
00:26:11,235 --> 00:26:13,268
a good man who can still be
convinced to do the right thing
569
00:26:13,337 --> 00:26:14,436
if we put pressure on him.
570
00:26:14,505 --> 00:26:17,139
You mean if my viewers
put pressure on him.
571
00:26:17,207 --> 00:26:18,607
I'll have to have proof first.
572
00:26:18,675 --> 00:26:21,309
- Proof?
- It is a secret spy agency.
573
00:26:21,378 --> 00:26:22,911
They don't give receipts.
574
00:26:22,980 --> 00:26:25,447
The whole point of B613
is that there is no B613.
575
00:26:25,516 --> 00:26:27,883
Well, I'm not risking my
spotless reputation without it,
576
00:26:27,951 --> 00:26:30,152
but find me evidence
and I will ring my bell with it
577
00:26:30,220 --> 00:26:31,653
for all to hear. Now excuse me.
578
00:26:31,722 --> 00:26:33,321
This face does not put itself on.
579
00:26:46,937 --> 00:26:48,737
So, what are you going to do?
580
00:26:48,806 --> 00:26:50,072
I don't know.
581
00:26:50,140 --> 00:26:52,674
I used to think about those
one-term presidents
582
00:26:52,743 --> 00:26:53,909
as such failures.
583
00:26:53,977 --> 00:26:56,178
Now what I wouldn't give
to be one of those losers.
584
00:26:56,246 --> 00:26:57,546
I know this can't be easy.
585
00:26:57,614 --> 00:26:58,747
Easy?
586
00:26:58,816 --> 00:27:00,282
You know this can't be easy?
587
00:27:00,350 --> 00:27:03,085
- Okay, I didn't mean to...
- You know what isn't easy?
588
00:27:03,153 --> 00:27:05,320
Watching your father leave
and never come back,
589
00:27:05,389 --> 00:27:07,622
seeing your husband
get shot in the head,
590
00:27:07,691 --> 00:27:09,458
burying your first-born child.
591
00:27:09,526 --> 00:27:10,926
Those things weren't easy,
592
00:27:10,994 --> 00:27:13,395
but each and every one of them
was a lesson,
593
00:27:13,464 --> 00:27:16,198
a God-given challenge
that allowed my becoming
594
00:27:16,266 --> 00:27:17,899
the first female President
595
00:27:17,968 --> 00:27:20,368
to make all the pain
and suffering worth it.
596
00:27:20,437 --> 00:27:22,737
What is the lesson now?
597
00:27:22,806 --> 00:27:24,806
Maybe the lesson is that you get judged
598
00:27:24,875 --> 00:27:26,041
by the company you keep.
599
00:27:26,110 --> 00:27:28,276
- What does that mean?
- Do you want me to keep it real?
600
00:27:28,345 --> 00:27:29,345
Of course.
601
00:27:29,413 --> 00:27:32,013
Okay.
602
00:27:33,317 --> 00:27:35,050
You're all sharks.
603
00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:36,251
Excuse me?
604
00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:38,186
You, Fitz, Cyrus, Olivia.
605
00:27:38,255 --> 00:27:39,387
I've been here a while now,
606
00:27:39,456 --> 00:27:41,022
and I've heard things over the years...
607
00:27:41,091 --> 00:27:42,858
election rigging, blackmail, murder.
608
00:27:42,926 --> 00:27:43,959
I never killed anybody.
609
00:27:44,027 --> 00:27:45,427
But you surrounded yourself
610
00:27:45,496 --> 00:27:47,129
with murderers, criminals, sharks.
611
00:27:47,197 --> 00:27:49,331
They work for you,
helped you to get to the place
612
00:27:49,399 --> 00:27:51,733
you're standing, and now
you're horrified and surprised
613
00:27:51,802 --> 00:27:53,602
that one of your sharks attacked you,
614
00:27:53,670 --> 00:27:55,704
went for your blood,
behaved like a shark.
615
00:27:55,772 --> 00:27:57,339
Cyrus is a traitor.
616
00:27:57,407 --> 00:27:58,940
Not just to me, but to his country.
617
00:27:59,009 --> 00:28:00,208
So this is about the country?
618
00:28:00,277 --> 00:28:01,376
It's always about the country!
619
00:28:01,445 --> 00:28:03,178
No, Mellie. It's about you.
620
00:28:03,247 --> 00:28:04,980
You care about doing whatever it takes
621
00:28:05,048 --> 00:28:07,015
to keep your job
and to protect your legacy.
622
00:28:07,084 --> 00:28:09,151
That's fine. But don't try
to have a pity party
623
00:28:09,219 --> 00:28:10,752
for a situation that you created.
624
00:28:31,074 --> 00:28:32,674
This doesn't ever get boring?
625
00:28:32,743 --> 00:28:34,442
Ha! Never!
626
00:28:37,714 --> 00:28:41,249
Um, what brings you here?
627
00:28:41,318 --> 00:28:43,485
I wanted to see you.
628
00:28:43,554 --> 00:28:45,387
Here I am, being seen.
629
00:28:48,959 --> 00:28:52,194
I know this... everything that's
been happening is not easy.
630
00:28:52,262 --> 00:28:53,929
It's not easy for any of us.
631
00:28:53,997 --> 00:28:55,297
But I wanted you to know
632
00:28:55,365 --> 00:28:57,265
that I'm doing it for the right reasons.
633
00:29:00,170 --> 00:29:03,104
Olivia is an unfortunate casualty.
634
00:29:03,173 --> 00:29:05,674
She's standing in the way
of what needs to be done.
635
00:29:05,742 --> 00:29:07,576
She's endangering the Republic.
636
00:29:07,644 --> 00:29:09,277
I'm saving it.
637
00:29:10,714 --> 00:29:11,947
Okay.
638
00:29:14,518 --> 00:29:16,084
"Okay"?
639
00:29:16,153 --> 00:29:17,485
Okay.
640
00:29:23,060 --> 00:29:24,826
You know why I love her?
641
00:29:24,895 --> 00:29:27,195
Why she brings me so much joy?
642
00:29:27,264 --> 00:29:29,497
She is the sum of her DNA,
643
00:29:29,566 --> 00:29:34,269
a portrait of survival,
a monument to lessons learned.
644
00:29:34,338 --> 00:29:37,606
Her superiority is owned in her history.
645
00:29:37,674 --> 00:29:40,642
Evolution, extinction... no matter.
646
00:29:41,945 --> 00:29:43,945
Her species can stand proud.
My species...
647
00:29:44,014 --> 00:29:45,847
Okay, old man, I didn't come
here for a lecture.
648
00:29:45,916 --> 00:29:47,782
Shut up and listen.
649
00:29:50,020 --> 00:29:53,288
You've taken the title... Command, B613.
650
00:29:53,357 --> 00:29:55,724
The throne is yours.
You think you've done it.
651
00:29:55,792 --> 00:29:57,592
You think victory is yours.
652
00:29:57,661 --> 00:30:00,262
You should feel all warm
and giddy inside.
653
00:30:00,330 --> 00:30:03,465
Instead...
654
00:30:03,533 --> 00:30:05,800
something's missing, right?
655
00:30:07,037 --> 00:30:08,603
So you're here.
656
00:30:08,672 --> 00:30:10,238
Not for a lecture, of course not.
657
00:30:10,307 --> 00:30:12,607
To come for a lecture
would mean that you understand
658
00:30:12,676 --> 00:30:14,476
that you still have something to learn.
659
00:30:14,544 --> 00:30:16,845
No, no, no, no, no, no!
660
00:30:16,913 --> 00:30:19,281
You came here for applause.
661
00:30:19,349 --> 00:30:22,217
You came for a hug,
an attaboy from Daddy
662
00:30:22,286 --> 00:30:24,819
because you think
that is what is missing.
663
00:30:24,888 --> 00:30:27,889
You think you need me to tell
you, "Good job, well done."
664
00:30:27,958 --> 00:30:30,592
You think you need
to hear how proud I am of you.
665
00:30:30,661 --> 00:30:33,561
You think you need my applause
and if I give you that,
666
00:30:33,630 --> 00:30:36,231
that will fill the holes
667
00:30:36,300 --> 00:30:39,139
and somehow you will
668
00:30:39,164 --> 00:30:42,404
actually be the king.
669
00:30:42,472 --> 00:30:44,072
Okay, let's try.
670
00:30:48,912 --> 00:30:50,612
Good job.
671
00:30:50,681 --> 00:30:52,981
Well done.
672
00:30:53,050 --> 00:30:55,050
I am so proud of you, son.
673
00:30:55,118 --> 00:30:57,819
Attaboy.
674
00:31:02,259 --> 00:31:04,659
Bravo.
675
00:31:04,728 --> 00:31:07,095
I came to tell you
that I am Command now,
676
00:31:07,164 --> 00:31:09,631
and I can be kind to you
or I can be cruel.
677
00:31:09,700 --> 00:31:12,167
I have the power now
and you need to realize...
678
00:31:12,235 --> 00:31:13,668
You have nothing.
679
00:31:16,239 --> 00:31:18,139
That's my point.
680
00:31:19,609 --> 00:31:24,212
How could I have failed both you
and Olivia so spectacularly?
681
00:31:24,281 --> 00:31:26,881
The two of you scurry around this town,
682
00:31:26,950 --> 00:31:29,317
squawking to anyone who will listen
683
00:31:29,386 --> 00:31:31,319
about how powerful you are.
684
00:31:31,388 --> 00:31:34,122
How have you learned so little
sitting at my right hand,
685
00:31:34,191 --> 00:31:35,824
absorbing nothing?
686
00:31:35,892 --> 00:31:37,926
If you have to tell me
how powerful you are,
687
00:31:37,994 --> 00:31:39,027
you ain't nobody!
688
00:31:39,096 --> 00:31:43,865
You got nothing! You have no power!
689
00:31:43,934 --> 00:31:45,700
Real power is silent.
690
00:31:45,769 --> 00:31:47,268
Real power is hidden.
691
00:31:47,337 --> 00:31:49,337
Real power was there all along.
692
00:31:49,406 --> 00:31:52,173
Real power cannot be gained
and never can be lost.
693
00:31:52,242 --> 00:31:56,444
It is not a commodity.
It is who you are.
694
00:32:12,429 --> 00:32:15,430
I am power.
695
00:32:15,499 --> 00:32:19,968
Absolute, total, unyielding power.
696
00:32:20,036 --> 00:32:22,103
I will always be power,
697
00:32:22,172 --> 00:32:25,874
and I keep waiting for one
of you to step up and join me
698
00:32:25,942 --> 00:32:31,279
because it is so lonely
up here at the top.
699
00:32:31,348 --> 00:32:34,115
Running the world? Really?
700
00:32:34,184 --> 00:32:35,617
Running the world
701
00:32:35,685 --> 00:32:39,387
and seeing all its moving parts
is exhausting.
702
00:32:39,456 --> 00:32:41,289
The sacrifices, the losses,
703
00:32:41,358 --> 00:32:43,591
the endless deaths,
704
00:32:43,660 --> 00:32:45,560
the level of responsibility.
705
00:32:45,629 --> 00:32:48,129
"Command" may be a title,
but it is not a job.
706
00:32:48,198 --> 00:32:49,964
You may call yourself Command.
707
00:32:50,033 --> 00:32:52,033
She may have called herself Command.
708
00:32:52,102 --> 00:32:56,037
Do either of you actually think
you ever took Command from me?
709
00:32:56,106 --> 00:32:59,441
How I wish.
710
00:32:59,509 --> 00:33:02,877
How I wish one of you would evolve
711
00:33:02,946 --> 00:33:05,213
so that I could call myself extinct.
712
00:33:07,651 --> 00:33:11,052
You cannot take Command, son.
713
00:33:11,121 --> 00:33:13,655
It is trapped in my bones.
714
00:33:15,358 --> 00:33:19,160
So...
715
00:33:22,866 --> 00:33:24,632
Run along.
716
00:33:26,603 --> 00:33:29,337
And leave me here
with the other dinosaurs.
717
00:33:34,110 --> 00:33:35,844
I could kill you right now.
718
00:33:43,954 --> 00:33:45,787
But you won't.
719
00:33:58,435 --> 00:34:03,037
I will be here for you, son,
720
00:34:03,106 --> 00:34:05,306
when you fall.
721
00:34:07,244 --> 00:34:09,444
Just stay out of my way.
722
00:35:11,957 --> 00:35:13,857
I want to help.
723
00:35:13,926 --> 00:35:15,926
Thank you.
724
00:35:15,994 --> 00:35:18,161
The only problem is I'm not
sure there's anything
725
00:35:18,230 --> 00:35:19,996
for me to actually do in this situation.
726
00:35:20,065 --> 00:35:22,699
I'm completely useless here.
727
00:35:22,768 --> 00:35:26,670
The only thing either one of us
can do at this point is wait.
728
00:35:26,739 --> 00:35:29,373
Wait and see what happens.
729
00:35:32,378 --> 00:35:34,411
With Sally Langston, of all people.
730
00:35:34,480 --> 00:35:36,947
With Sally Langston.
731
00:35:41,954 --> 00:35:43,787
Hey.
732
00:35:43,856 --> 00:35:46,957
At least we figured something out.
733
00:35:47,025 --> 00:35:49,726
Yeah? What?
734
00:35:51,764 --> 00:35:53,797
How this story ends.
735
00:35:55,334 --> 00:35:57,234
It ends with us.
736
00:35:58,837 --> 00:36:03,540
It ends with us doing
what's right for the country.
737
00:36:17,756 --> 00:36:20,157
I checked all the old drops...
Rock Creek Cemetery,
738
00:36:20,225 --> 00:36:22,893
Buzzard Point Park, the National
Zoo, but there's nothing.
739
00:36:22,961 --> 00:36:24,528
No flash drives, no folders, nothing.
740
00:36:24,596 --> 00:36:25,729
Nothing online either.
741
00:36:25,798 --> 00:36:27,464
The last time Rowan covered his tracks,
742
00:36:27,533 --> 00:36:29,633
he scrubbed and overwrote
all the deep web caches.
743
00:36:29,701 --> 00:36:32,135
I've been searching old
police reports for smoking guns.
744
00:36:32,204 --> 00:36:33,204
No luck there either.
745
00:36:33,272 --> 00:36:34,738
So, short of holding Jake at gunpoint
746
00:36:34,807 --> 00:36:37,307
and demanding that he
turn over his secret stash...
747
00:36:37,376 --> 00:36:39,009
We have nothing for Sally.
748
00:36:49,388 --> 00:36:51,188
Maybe that's okay.
749
00:36:51,256 --> 00:36:54,257
Maybe failing at this
isn't such a bad thing.
750
00:36:54,326 --> 00:36:57,594
What Liv wants... sacrificing
herself for the greater good...
751
00:36:57,663 --> 00:36:59,864
I mean, how much good would
actually come if Liv goes to prison?
752
00:36:59,954 --> 00:37:02,232
If it means Cyrus won't
be President, a lot.
753
00:37:02,301 --> 00:37:04,367
Ultimately, the presidency
is just a job.
754
00:37:04,436 --> 00:37:06,570
We're talking about
Olivia's life and ours.
755
00:37:06,638 --> 00:37:09,272
Turning over evidence of B613...
that implicates all of us.
756
00:37:09,341 --> 00:37:10,574
Liv would protect us.
757
00:37:10,642 --> 00:37:12,108
- But what if she can't?
- We're missing the point.
758
00:37:12,177 --> 00:37:13,510
This isn't about Mellie's job.
759
00:37:13,579 --> 00:37:15,779
It's is about a rot at the core
of American democracy,
760
00:37:15,848 --> 00:37:18,715
about doing whatever it takes
to flush that rot out for good.
761
00:37:18,784 --> 00:37:21,251
Restoring transparency, trust,
762
00:37:21,320 --> 00:37:24,187
common stewardship for,
you know, the Republic.
763
00:37:24,256 --> 00:37:27,023
This does sound so much better
when Liv says it.
764
00:37:27,092 --> 00:37:28,625
I know.
765
00:37:28,694 --> 00:37:30,760
Okay.
766
00:37:30,829 --> 00:37:32,863
How about this?
767
00:37:32,931 --> 00:37:37,634
This is about Liv handling this,
fixing what needs fixing,
768
00:37:37,703 --> 00:37:39,803
wanting to go down
and make things right.
769
00:37:39,872 --> 00:37:41,905
That's how we know
she's the old Liv again.
770
00:37:44,176 --> 00:37:46,076
Okay. You're right.
771
00:37:48,013 --> 00:37:49,813
But without proof, she can't fix it.
772
00:37:49,882 --> 00:37:52,883
Well, there is...
773
00:37:52,951 --> 00:37:54,017
something.
774
00:37:57,923 --> 00:37:59,289
You couldn't find any evidence?
775
00:37:59,358 --> 00:38:00,757
No evidence, but something else.
776
00:38:00,826 --> 00:38:04,060
Witnesses willing to testify
at length about B613.
777
00:38:04,129 --> 00:38:06,196
Okay. Witnesses. Who?
778
00:38:12,738 --> 00:38:14,304
No.
779
00:38:14,373 --> 00:38:15,373
Absolutely not.
780
00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:17,007
Huck and I were B613 agents.
781
00:38:17,075 --> 00:38:18,842
We worked our way up
from the paper desk.
782
00:38:18,911 --> 00:38:21,411
- We know everything.
- Methodologies, dates, details.
783
00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:24,014
Details I can corroborate.
I've been close enough.
784
00:38:24,082 --> 00:38:25,148
I've seen enough.
785
00:38:25,217 --> 00:38:26,550
I told you, this is my decision.
786
00:38:26,618 --> 00:38:28,485
I'll protect you from the consequences.
787
00:38:28,554 --> 00:38:31,421
We know. That's exactly
why we're by your side.
788
00:38:31,490 --> 00:38:35,025
By my side?
Do you know where I'm heading?
789
00:38:35,093 --> 00:38:36,159
Over a cliff.
790
00:38:37,696 --> 00:38:40,931
- He's right, Liv.
- By your side.
791
00:38:42,834 --> 00:38:44,467
Over a cliff.
792
00:38:48,907 --> 00:38:51,074
You still have a choice here.
I can keep your name out of this,
793
00:38:51,143 --> 00:38:52,442
deny you had any knowledge
of B613, or...
794
00:38:52,511 --> 00:38:54,711
- You can tell the truth.
- Or I can tell the truth.
795
00:38:54,780 --> 00:38:56,813
It's up to you.
796
00:39:01,687 --> 00:39:05,221
Everything in me is saying
that letting B613 come out,
797
00:39:05,290 --> 00:39:06,423
to be known to the world,
798
00:39:06,491 --> 00:39:08,658
is the biggest mistake I will ever make.
799
00:39:08,727 --> 00:39:11,895
Problem is, I've already made
the biggest mistake
800
00:39:11,964 --> 00:39:14,564
I'll ever make... not listening to you.
801
00:39:14,633 --> 00:39:16,700
If we do this, it may very well be
802
00:39:16,768 --> 00:39:18,835
the last thing we ever do together.
803
00:39:22,107 --> 00:39:24,608
Maybe they'll give us
side-by-side prison cells.
804
00:39:24,676 --> 00:39:27,944
Maybe.
805
00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:37,253
Okay.
806
00:39:37,322 --> 00:39:38,822
Okay.
807
00:39:43,662 --> 00:39:45,528
Hello, Lovers.
808
00:39:45,597 --> 00:39:48,798
As you know, I have been one
of the Grant family's
809
00:39:48,867 --> 00:39:50,333
most vociferous critics.
810
00:39:50,402 --> 00:39:51,968
Not today.
811
00:39:52,037 --> 00:39:54,804
Today I leap to Mellie Grant's aid
812
00:39:54,873 --> 00:39:57,073
with the alacrity of an angel.
813
00:39:57,142 --> 00:39:59,109
Not in the name of partisanship,
814
00:39:59,177 --> 00:40:01,911
but in the name of liberty.
815
00:40:01,980 --> 00:40:05,615
Thanks to the courage of
some very brave individuals,
816
00:40:05,684 --> 00:40:07,617
it has come to my attention
817
00:40:07,686 --> 00:40:11,621
that, for the last 30-odd years,
818
00:40:11,690 --> 00:40:15,525
our country has been led,
not by our President,
819
00:40:15,594 --> 00:40:18,895
but by a top-secret spy organization
820
00:40:18,964 --> 00:40:23,800
operating within our government
on our government's dime...
821
00:40:23,869 --> 00:40:26,803
- No, no, no, no, no.
- ...in our government's name.
822
00:40:26,872 --> 00:40:28,171
These are the traitors
823
00:40:28,240 --> 00:40:30,407
who tried to bring down Air Force Two.
824
00:40:30,475 --> 00:40:32,676
These are the traitors who seek to frame
825
00:40:32,744 --> 00:40:34,310
Mellie Grant for that crime.
826
00:40:34,379 --> 00:40:37,514
These are the traitors
Mr. Lonnie Mencken,
827
00:40:37,582 --> 00:40:39,482
who should be dragged
out of the darkness
828
00:40:39,551 --> 00:40:41,084
and into the light
829
00:40:41,153 --> 00:40:44,087
so they can finally be held accountable.
830
00:40:44,156 --> 00:40:46,990
It will not be easy.
831
00:40:47,059 --> 00:40:49,826
The enemy is formidable,
832
00:40:49,895 --> 00:40:52,729
but it is necessary,
833
00:40:52,798 --> 00:40:55,632
for this is the fight of our time.
834
00:40:55,701 --> 00:40:57,634
Stand with me, Lovers.
835
00:40:57,703 --> 00:41:00,303
Demand justice, take action.
836
00:41:00,372 --> 00:41:01,938
God bless you, Lovers,
837
00:41:02,007 --> 00:41:04,841
and God bless America,
838
00:41:04,910 --> 00:41:07,977
or at least what's left of it.
839
00:41:08,046 --> 00:41:10,814
Here we go.
840
00:41:19,927 --> 00:41:24,927
