-Can you see the rope burns? -It's not too bad.

Get that mother-- handed to me!

What would you like for me to do, Mr. President?

[Male Narrator] Previously on The Oval.

Is Donald with me? I need you to help me.

OK.

I saw your husband having sex with Kyle.

I'd be more surprised if they weren't screwing around.

You -- up the house.

[screams]

You have to stop!

Try to stay calm.

Richard.

Stop!

No! No! Stop! Stop!

Dale, do something!

Mr. Richard, stop! Please stop!

You're gonna kill her! Oh my God, are you OK?

-This is what you wanted! -It's not.

You wanted me to be this mother--!

I can be a monster!

OK, Mr. Richard, calm down!

You're bringing up all this old shit.

Those pictures of Barry. I can't believe you.

Mr. Richard, it's OK.

-Do you know what she did? -Yes.

All the pictures are buried. That's all I had left of him!

-I know. I know. I'm sorry. -Why didn't you stop her?

I saw it after she did it. I'm sorry.

You mother--!

[Sharon] OK, OK.

-You're going to jail! -Yeah, OK.

-You put your hands on me! -Yeah. OK.

And I'm gonna tell it all! -You do what you have to!

-I am. -I'll be right here!

You think you're above the law, huh?

You keep it up.

You started it.

OK. Look, y'all know Barry would not have wanted this, okay?

How the hell would you know?

You shake your ass for Kareem every chance you get.

Where's my -- phone?

-Dale? -I don't know.

Find my -- phone! Find my -- phone!

Because I'm calling the police. You stay your ass right there.

Yeah, I'll be sitting right here.

-Yeah, and don't move. -I'll be right here!

♪ Feels like I'm runnin' out of time ♪

♪ You gotta get yours I gotta get mine ♪

♪ Not really sure where we're headed to ♪

♪ I just hope that you make it when I do ♪

You look scared.

I'm not.

Well, you don't have to stand so close to me, then.

-I'm not scared. -Yeah, okay.

Well, don't worry. They're expecting us.

Whoa, whoa, whoa! OK, wait, wait, wait!

He wants to talk to Donald!

Tell your men to put their guns down!

-No. -No?

Correct. We were told to kill him.

That is not what we talked about!

Boys.

No, no, no, no! No! Wait!

Where is Hunter?

I'm right here.

I'm enjoying the hell out of this.

You told me that I didn't have anything to worry about!

I know what I said.

So you know that this is not what we talked about, Hunter.

You betrayed me.

Never.

-I think you did. -[Donald] No.

No, sir, you never have to worry about that.

But you're down there helping them.

Yes. Yes.

I was handling everything down there until you got better, sir.

Yeah, that's, um...

That's not what you're telling me.

Sir, I swear.

Well, why did you save them?

For you.

-For me? -Yeah, I did it for you.

But I had them right where I wanted.

Both dead.

No. No. Sir, listen to me. If that plan had worked,

there'd be no coming back for you from that.

-Who would have found out? -Sir, think about it, okay?

The Vice President and the First Lady both dead?

How would that look?

That would look any way you wanted it to look, Donald.

Because that's what you do.

Lovers quarrel. Murder-suicide.

You cover up messes, Donald.

But you didn't want to deal with this one.

And you want to know why?

Because you're -- full of shit!

No, sir, listen to me. I am telling you the truth.

I don't believe you.

Yeah. Yeah, I know you don't.

And I know it's real hard to trust anybody right now.

Mm-hmm.

And especially with my wife down there running things,

working to destroy me.

And I'll get her, sir. I will.

You're on her father's side now.

No. Sir, I'm telling you the truth, okay?

I've got Kyle down there on standby just in case.

But, sir, Eli, he...

He is like a -- child, okay?

I have been doing all the work down there,

keeping an eye on him and making you look good, sir.

Let me ask you something, Donald.

Why would I need you down there

making me look like what I already am?

Yeah, I get it. But right now, sir, I need you to believe me.

OK? I need you to trust me.

-Agent Isaac? -Sir.

[Hunter] Pull out your handgun.

Put it to Donald's head for me.

-What? -[Priscilla] Sir.

Sir.

Donald, tell me why I shouldn't have him

blow your brains out right now.

Because you know me, sir.

I thought I did, but I don't.

No. No, sir. It has been me. I have been by your side.

And I am still by your side!

I've got a plan, sir.

-Yeah. -What plan?

Sir.

If we can all just meet, I can resolve all of this.

I promise you that.

I'm not meeting with that mother--.

OK, OK, OK, so can we just...

Can they just come up here, then? Please.

Sure.

-They can come up here. -Yes, sir.

-With no security. -Sir.

-No agents. -Sir. I can't sell that, sir.

That's the offer.

If you want to make this happen, that's what it's got to be.

Can you do that, Donald?

I can do my best.

All right.

You're doing your best, Donald.

That's not the answer I was looking for.

-Jason? -Hey, Dad.

How are you feeling, son?

-I'm feeling pretty good today. -Oh, that's great.

-You still bored, son? -Yes, sir.

Well, I was thinking maybe we have Donald here

come hang out in your room with you for a while.

-You think so? -[Hunter] Yeah.

Why would I want to do that?

Well, I know you hate liars as much as I do, so...

I don't know.

Maybe you could teach Donald here a lesson or two.

Yeah, I could do something.

[Hunter] But don't worry. You'll be safe.

-If you're sure. -Oh, yeah.

We'll chain him up to the chair.

He won't hurt you.

What do you need, son? Maybe, uh...

Maybe, like, a knife or something?

Priscilla?

Could you run over to the kitchen and grab us a knife?

-[Priscilla] Uh, sir. -[Hunter] What?

-[Priscilla] I'm not doing that. -[Hunter] Why not?

-Because this is sick! -Oh.

The girl who's into chains and bondage

is all of a sudden a little squeamish?

Ha! Psych! Just...

Stand down there, Agent Isaac.

I think we need to go to the Oval

so we can get this thing started.

We have been keeping the staff

and the press people out all day.

If we don't get this thing resolved, Hunter,

we will all be in the press.

Think this through!

-OK. -Thank you.

Let's go, Donald.

Sir, I promise you, I am with you.

Let's go.

Kept my promise.

[intense music]

-You can relax now. -I'm relaxed.

Well, you could have fooled me up there.

I'm sorry. Is there something you want to say?

-No. -Oh. As I said, I am relaxed.

-Yes, sir. -You know what?

Give me a sec.

-You okay? -Yeah.

-You sure? -Yeah.

-It's okay. -All right.

What happened up there?

-Sir, the president is waiting. -Let him wait.

I've had enough of you.

Who the hell do you think you are?

-Sir. -What, what, what?

What are you? You having sex with Hunter now?

No, that's something you would do.

-Priscilla. -OK, OK, Priscilla.

Why don't I meet you over there, okay?

Go ahead.

Just stand down. Thank you.

[sighs]

-You don't look okay. -That mother-- is crazy.

Uh, what happened?

He wanted to leave me in a room with Jason.

OK. Yeah, that's crazy.

Uh, but he's fine.

OK. I just need to move my plan up now.

And what is your plan? What do you need me to do?

I need you to stay alert.

-OK? -That's it?

Yeah. Yeah, for now.

Donald, you have to communicate with me.

No, Kyle. Think about it. It's a chess game, okay? Think.

One wrong move, and it all goes to hell.

-Hmm? -OK.

[Donald] OK.

You okay?

OK. Where's Allan?

-He's in his office. -Yeah?

OK. That's good.

I don't like being left in the dark.

Uh, Kyle. Look. It's fine, okay? Hey, look at me.

It's fine. All right?

Now, I just need to go and talk to him.

Donald?

I just wanted to look at you one more time.

Hey. I'll talk to you later, okay?

All right.

-You. -Oh, uh.

In your office.

Victoria, I need to go and see Eli right now.

I'm not playing.

-Aggh! -Now!

What the hell happened?

[laughing]

He's off the deep end.

-Yeah, I know that. -Yeah, so I need to go.

I need to go and I need to see Eli.

No. We need to get his ass out of the Oval.

What?

Did you not hear how he just spoke to me?

I mean, the audacity. I'm not tolerating it.

Yeah. Yeah. I know you're not, but right now, Victoria,

I need you to at least keep the man calm.

-Can you do that? - -- him.

Everything I had to do to make this shit work.

Yeah. And what does that mean?

I had to work his corny ass.

You mean you had to sleep with him.

What?

-What? If that's what it took? -Victoria.

I don't give a shit about this mother--.

I was covering my bases.

Yeah, and how is that covering your bases, Victoria?

I was getting him to fall in love with me,

and he would leave Simone.

Hunter would die a tragic death,

and then in eight years, he would run for president.

-And I'd be first lady. -[laughs]

That shit is funny to you now?

Lady, you are ridiculous, you know that?

We both know that anything is possible.

We just witnessed the past administration.

That is true.

But I really, really need to go and see Eli right now.

OK, well, I'll come with you.

Victoria, he clearly does not want you in there.

-- what he wants, huh? I'm coming.

OK, OK.

Sorry, I didn't know you were back.

I need you to do me a huge favor this evening.

I need you to move back into the office.

-Yes, sir. -OK, thank you. Let's go.

[door closes]

[phone vibrates]

-Hello? -Hey.

[Sam] Hey, who's this?

-Hey, it's Sharon. -Sharon, hey.

-Is this important? -[Sharon] Yeah, it's important.

What's going on?

Mr. Richard just attacked Miss Nancy.

-[Sam] What? -Yeah.

No, no, wait, he's here at the White House.

No, he's here.

Shit.

-Look, I don't know what to do. -[Sam] Is she okay?

Well, she just keeps screaming

that she's going to call the police.

Sharon, tell her don't do that.

[Sharon] Well, she's not going to listen to me.

And they're in there still arguing right now.

Shit.

[Sharon] Sam, I don't know what to do.

-I'm on my way. -OK, please hurry.

I'll be there as soon as I can. Try and keep them calm.

That's not going to be easy.

[Sam] Well, you have to try, Sharon.

Well, that's why I called you.

I can't leave just yet, all right?

But whatever you do, don't let her call the police.

-All right, I'll try. -[Sam] OK.

All right, please hurry. Bye.

I thought you were gone.

No, you didn't.

Ma'am.

You would know if I were gone.

-Can I get something for you? -Yes.

A gun.

A gun. I don't have a gun, ma'am.

How's your life going, Allan?

My life? Well, my life is great.

Do you have money?

I have money.

A lot?

It depends. How much do you need?

I think we have about 10,000 or so.

No, I'm talking about real money, like millions of dollars.

Millions of dollars, Mrs. Winthrop?

I don't have that kind of money, no.

Well, I have a friend.

What about your friend?

She hired someone to kill her husband.

I'm sure she regrets that.

No, she doesn't. She got away with it.

-Huh. Is that so? -[Lilly] Mm-hmm.

And so did the man she hired.

Well, I'm sure that man

doesn't work here in the White House, Mrs. Winthrop.

Touché, Allan. You're right. You're right.

You know, I'm starting to think

that this is a bad idea altogether. Hmm?

-I think you're right. -Yeah.

[Lilly] I hear you.

So, is there something that I can get for you, then?

Well, you can't do what my friend had someone else do, so.

Ma'am, come on. You shouldn't joke about things like that.

Look at my face.

You're not joking.

-No. -Huh.

-Why don't you just divorce him? -Why don't you just quit?

The two don't connect.

Yes, they do.

You're his, and he won't let you go.

I beg to differ.

Have you ever tried to quit?

Actually, yes, I have.

[Lilly] And what happened?

-Well, he just-- -Talked you back into it.

It was my idea.

He made you think it was your idea.

OK. Enough. OK?

I'm moving offices, so I need to go.

So, there's nothing that I can get for you?

-No. -Great.

You can stay here as long as you'd like.

-OK. Thank you. I will. -Be smart.

No, no.

Excuse me?

Don't run from a girl.

Yes, ma'am.

That's not what you were doing, right?

No, ma'am.

I mean, big, fine man like you,

you wouldn't be afraid of little old Victoria, would you?

No, ma'am.

So what's going on?

What do you mean?

Upstairs. I want to go check it out.

Well, I wouldn't advise that, ma'am.

That's why those men are on coverage.

Bobby, I am so stressed.

How do we end this?

-I don't know, ma'am. -That's right.

You don't know.

You don't know who to have sex with and who not to.

Is there something you need, ma'am?

I don't know yet.

Well, when you do, let us know.

I don't need to let you know anything.

Whatever, ma'am.

No, no, no, no.

Where are you running off to?

I've been summoned.

Summoned? Summoned by whom? Simone?

Ma'am, I really need to go.

Did I dismiss you?

No, ma'am, you didn't.

Then you will stand here for as long as I want.

Ma'am, this is not helping to solve the situation upstairs.

And you can solve it?

Not while you're keeping me here.

OK, fine.

-I'll let you go. -Yes, ma'am.

But I'm going upstairs with you.

No, ma'am, you're not.

OK.

Y'all keep trying to keep me out.

Yes, ma'am. Now I need to go.

I see why they like you.

-Sam? -Yeah?

I wanted to tell you what Priscilla and I talked about.

-Yeah, what is that? -Jason.

Hunter told me you two were working together.

Yeah, I thought he did.

But the kids asking questions.

He's smart. I knew he would.

So we need to get word to him that it's not true.

Yeah, but how? It's risky.

Well, we could ring the phone in this room?

-They would hear it. -Maybe not.

I can control the length of the ringer.

You really think it'll work?

-Well, we run the risk of-- -The line being hacked.

And phone calls being made out by Hunter

-Yeah, is he that smart? -He is that damn creepy.

I think it's worth a shot. What else do we have?

Yeah. All right, let's give it a shot.

All right. On it.

Now, if the line goes red--

-I'm disconnecting the call. -That's right.

[phone rings]

-Hello? -[Sam] Jason.

Sam?

Sam, you lied to me.

I am not working with your father.

I need you to tell me right now. Am I in danger?

-You can trust me, Sam. -[Sam] Can I?

I don't know if I can. I just...

Am I in danger right now?

-You could very well be. -[Sam] Well, then...

Then I need to find a way to get out of here.

-You can't do that. -[Sam] Oh, yeah?

I really can.

-And how will you do that? -[Sam] Watch me.

Red, Red!

-Damn it. -Damn.

Figured it wouldn't last long.

Damn, damn, damn.

Well, hey, at least he knows now, right?

Does he believe it?

We'll find out soon enough.

-God, I hope you're right, Max. -Yeah, me too.

Shit.

Hey, are you okay?

-Oh. -He hits hard for an old man.

-Hey, shh. -What? He does.

-Dale, stop. -He should stop.

Look, they're both just upset.

Are they always like this?

No, I've actually never seen him like this.

Well it's clear they're like this now.

They're just grieving right now.

I've seen people grieve before. Never like this.

Yeah, me either.

And they're tearing this place...

It's just crazy. Like...

Yeah.

And spending all of their money.

Listen, whatever you do, do not mention that car.

-OK? -Right.

Did you find that phone?

-I have it. -What?

Look, I'm not letting her call the police.

Why not?

Just, just trust me on this, okay?

Did you see what he did?

And he's still in this house here, too.

I know.

Where is my damn phone?

-I have mine. -Let me use it.

Well, I actually already called the police.

What did they say?

They said they're sending someone.

Good. Let 'em come, because I'm getting his ass locked up.

Come on, Miss Nancy.

What? You both saw him? You both are my witness.

And Dale? Dale! You saw him stab his father.

-Just calm down, y'all. -I don't care.

I don't care. Dale, I have been good to you.

-You gonna tell it. -OK.

-Yeah. You do that, son. -He will. And don't talk to him.

-Who are you? -And who are you?

Putting your damn hands on me.

-You put yours on my father. -That ain't all I put on him.

Keep it up.

-All right, y'all stop. -I can't believe this.

[Sharon] You know, Barry would not have--

Sharon, you stop.

No! I said it before and I'll say it again.

Barry would not have wanted this.

-We know that. -All right. Then chill out.

I will, as soon as his ass is in jail.

All right.

You just wait till the police come.

-I'll be waiting right here. -Yeah, don't move.

I'll be waiting.

You ain't never put your hands on me!

You ain't never been this stupid ass bitch.

-You call me one more bitch. -[crash]

All right. You know what? That's it. Cut it out!

Shit!

-Where is he? -He stopped to talk to Kyle.

What?

We're in the middle of a crisis and he stopped

to chit chat with his boyfriend?

Simone?

No, OK, they just had sex on your desk.

Simone!

Well, did you at least get it cleaned?

Are you really saying this in front of Priscilla?

I'm sure Priscilla knows all about it.

-Shit. Get him here, now. -I will.

-Sir? -[Eli] Yes?

-Donald's here. -Show him in.

-Yes, sir. -Thank you.

-How's Kyle doing? -Simone.

-[Eli] What'd he say? -He wants to talk to you.

After what he just did?

Yeah. I know. I told him that it'd be a long shot.

So, have him come down here.

No. No, he won't come down here.

Then how are we gonna talk? On the phone?

-He wants you to go up there. -Without security.

There is no way in hell that that's happening.

Yeah.

What? So he can finish the job?

Don't worry, sir. I told him that you would not.

What did he say?

He said that it had better happen,

or things are gonna get a lot worse.

Oh, it's gonna get a hell of a lot worse

once the country finds out about it all.

And we can't let that happen, Mr. President.

They need to know that the ex-president

is in the residence with armed gunmen

attempting to hold onto power.

No. No, sir. We need to give him an out.

-We don't have to give him shit. -Simone, will you let me focus?

Do you trust him?

[Eli] Let's hear him out.

And you're seriously considering what he's saying?

Yes.

Donald, what's your plan?

Maybe Kyle has a plan.

-Priscilla? -Yes, sir?

Can you take my wife somewhere and get her something

to calm her ass down?

-But, Eli? -Certainly, sir.

Right this way, ma'am.

First lady.

-Women. -Yeah, tell me about it.

There is no way I'm going back up there without security.

I know.

And we'll be in the same position we were before.

So hear me out on this one.

What if you two meet in the bunker, alone?

No security.

Nah, he'd be a fool to do that.

I'm just thinking out loud here.

If I got his ass down there,

there's no way he's coming back up.

Bingo.

Yeah, that's not going to work.

OK, OK, I'll just think of something else.

-I've made a decision. -What's that?

If he's not out of there by the morning,

I'm calling in the National Guard.

No, no, no, sir. The press will be all over that.

Yeah. Yeah, tell him that.

As a matter of fact, call him right now.

-Sir, listen to me right now. -Call him.

Yes, yes, sir.

Excuse me.

[phone rings]

I've been waiting for this phone call.

Yes. Hold for the VP, please.

-[Hunter] Is he coming up? -No, Hunter, I am not.

Why not, Skippy? You scared?

You already tried to kill me.

Nah. I didn't try to kill you. I just tried to scare you.

And it looks like it worked.

I'm just calling to tell you

that you have until the morning to leave.

Then I'm calling in the National Guard.

-[Hunter] Oh, yeah? -Yes.

Well, you better bring a lot of body bags.

Hunter, what's your game here?

-Eh, -- your wife. -[Eli] What?

Just like you were -- mine.

-What are you talking about? -[Hunter] What?

That wasn't you? Your skinny ass banging Victoria in the Oval?

Hunter, you're being delusional and paranoid.

You know what's sad? You even sound like her now.

I wanted this to end peacefully, but you leave me no choice.

-[Hunter] OK. -So, just give up.

Oh, yeah. Sure, I'm coming down now.

[Eli] OK.

And have your men put down their weapons.

Yep, nope, they're laying them down right now, too.

[Eli] OK. Come down.

How about, um, you go -- yourself?

-Hunter? -[Hunter] I warned you, Eli.

I'm gonna make you regret this.

You and Victoria cooked up all this shit.

You just had to -- try to destroy me.

And here's the saddest part.

You don't even know that you're in bed with a snake.

You have my demands. You have until morning, Hunter.

-See you in the morning, Skippy. -OK.

I knew that wouldn't go well, sir.

I want the National Guard here in the morning.

Wait, no, sir, you can't do that.

-Yes, you hear what I said? -Sir, listen to me, okay?

-6 a.m., send them in. -Sir?

I mean it.

Yes, sir.

OK, now leave me.

Sir?

-Go. -Yes, sir.

-Hey. -[Sam] Hey.

Where are they?

They're in there.

Enter at your own risk.

What the hell happened here?

-I told you. -Dale.

-He did all of this? -No, it was Nancy.

What?

Yeah, she went insane.

-Damn it. This is bad. -I tried to tell you.

Yeah.

So you think you can calm them down?

I don't know.

-Good luck. -You mind, kid?

I'm just saying. It's hostile in there.

Shit. Where are they?

-They're in the dining room. -Doing what?

Just sitting there and not saying anything.

-It's really weird. -Yeah.

What happened to you?

Richard hit me.

What?

Well, he actually elbowed me in the face

when I tried to calm him down.

-You OK? -Yeah. I'm fine.

Are you sure? You don't look so good.

I'm OK.

Shit.

Richard!

Shit. I thought you were the damn police.

They are taking so long.

Nancy, we need to talk about this.

Look at my neck, Sam. He choked me.

Richard.

And his ass is going to jail.

Well, Nancy--

And I'm telling the police everything.

Nancy, we need to talk about this, OK?

-Nancy, we-- -Wait, wait, wait.

You're law enforcement, aren't you?

-[Sam] Nancy. -What?

Richard's father was mugged.

-No, he wasn't. -Oh, yes, he was.

Sam, I saw it.

You don't want to do this, Nancy.

OK, so what are you saying?

We are going to have a conversation.

You want me to cover for some wife-beating murderer?

Nancy, you know that is not the case.

-Oh, so you're on his side? -No, I'm on both of your sides.

-Where's the damn police? -Nancy!

-Sharon! -Ma'am?

[Nancy] You didn't call them, did you?

Yeah, I called them.

-You're lying to me. -No, I'm not.

When I called them,

they said they didn't have a call on any of this.

Oh, you called them?

Yes, and you tried to hide my phone.

Miss Nancy.

Come on Nancy, we need to get you cleaned up.

-No, we don't! -Richard?

I am trying, Sam.

You know what we talked about.

-Oh, what did you talk about? -[Sam] Come on.

Police are here.

-Did you let them in? -No, they just barged in.

-[Nancy] Help! Help me! -What's going on, ma'am? Ma'am!

My husband, he beat me. And he stabbed his father.

Now, they said it was a mugging, but actually, he killed him.

-Ain't that right, Dale? -Nancy.

-Who are you? -I'm with the Secret Service.

-And why would you be here? -Can we talk outside?

No, sir. Richard, stand up, put your hands behind your back.

Do it now!

You're under arrest. We'll read your rights outside.

Don't say a word, Richard.

I'll come down to the precinct and tell you everything I know.

-Lock his ass up. -Let's go.

Nancy!

[Female Narrator] Next on The Oval.

Hunter, he knows,

he knows about your affair with Eli.

Well, whatever.
