Where's my ******* copy of the plan?

Public marriage. Private divorce. Are you

gonna plug people?Yeah, I guess so.

What's happening right now?People may

invite the Second Lady to tea, but the

ambassador's gonna walk through the door.

This house over Harold?Oh Henry.

I'm sorry?If Hal wants me fired, he

should do it, not send you to test me. Do

I have asked me to call Hal tattooed on

my forehead and I'm the only one who

doesn't know it?I think it might be time

to put your head down and call Hal. Are

you familiar with a program called the

Cooperative Global Messaging Initiative?

They need a point person. I'm gonna be

gone. If you are running a multinational

project, it's a lot harder to fire you.

Go to Thompson. About?The North City.

well he agrees you just put me out ahead

of the White House on resource extraction

I have been trying to reach you you can't

play the wife card every time your host

country needs a favor my marriage is over

if that's what you would consider

actionable intelligence you trying to

leave no I'm trying to get you to take

your off Kate

I'm sorry I'm not I just think the timing

is bad

UAS 910 Alpha Tango, recon flight

All two of the same thing.

What happened?Did we lose

them?Standby. Target

back in SOV. Ah, okay. Tie them.

Copy. All of them. Updating RSC.

And let the ground team know. I don't

want anyone else on that road. Relay.

DC establishing AVV perimeter.

I'm so glad you could make it. Ambassador

was. It's nice to see you. Single

out the target car. That's the

decoy. The principal is in this third

car. Come on, guys. Focus. I'm

west of Lawford. Steer clear. Thank you.

Holding track with that?Copy. ETA to

Waypoint 1407. Hi.

Ambassador. Ambassador.

Britain, smitten. I am smitten right

back. I'm so glad you could make it. I'd

love to be elected by the Americans. How

can I stay with them?This time you're

being lectured by the Brits. Oh, it's

much worse.

Slow down. Plenty of

time. Target is on final approach. Ears

to the wire. Ready?

You good?Could not be better. It's not

the youngest crowd we've ever had, so

maybe keep it brief. You're

speaking, not me. What?No?

No, I'm just hi and welcome. You don't

want a speech?We discussed this. You

would make remarks, and I would mingle

and applaud. **** okay, let me find my

guy. Ambassador.

I'm going to

have you thrown out. Tenley's at a six.

They're all welcome. Thank you. And you

must be Mr. Tenley. Lady Ambassador.

Second Lady or Ambassador, but I prefer

you call me Kate. Not really possibly, at

the risk of intruding upon your thigh.

Oh, for goodness sake. thought of nothing

that you pronounced and now his tongue

tied in your presence would you please do

my husband the Exquisite honor of

taking a scusy sure

it's for our granddaughter she adores you

and she thinks your husband is very s

give me a problem all right

you can get it yes ready

one minute out time to move on my way

Ambassador, do you know Mr. Ellis?Of

course. He got you 12 times from the

telephone. And once you say the answer,

stop. He's shameless. If we'd learned

from the start that the second lady was

hosting, you could have saved 11 hogs.

Next time, I'm making all the calls. Now

when can we get you to the embassy?We'll

put a dinner together in your honor. I

wouldn't love that. On the roof, go past

the game. Clear the ground for a hallway,

please. Let me know when you're on the

axe. Will do. Hang tight. Hey.

Mayday. Nobody says that. What do they

say?Alan, hold up a sec.

Back door, not front door. There's a

delivery entrance on the other side of

the building. Let's back it up and take

the first left.

Congratulations, you're a credit to the

nation.

What are you doing?We're done. It's not

over. My part is, the eagle has landed.

Mayday, I lost visuals. I'm

fine blind.

I have the package. Oh, is it Stuart?

I actually done. Ah, I'm not counting

chickens. Think she figured it out?I was

at the house this morning. If she knows,

her game face is better than I thought.

Ah, it ain't great. Okay, here we go.

Wanna stay in the line?Absolutely.

yes

everybody set the orders

yes

thank you

Wow! Whoa! Oh,

my goodness! You

sure got me.

Hear that?

Sorry. I just did it by President.

Step down. I hear you've got the big

chair. Not quite as big as yours.

Pollyanna Sampson here. Pollyanna, nice

to meet you. Ingredients of the every

seat delegation...

What?The face is nice.

Have you, Mr. Vice President, Callum

Ellis?You've convened today's

conversation on science research in the

North Sea. An honor to meet you, sir. Is

it?Very much so. We were just discussing

marine data pooling collection. You

should all set. Right here. I got you a

seat. If he's honored to

meet me, he must be busting his mouth and

to be ******* my wife. Ma'am,

you ready?Yeah, I'm fine. Why aren't you

sitting?

Ladies and gentlemen...

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome. I'm

Ambassador Katherine Wyler, and it is

truly a joy to welcome you to Winfield

House. It is

my pleasure to introduce Callum

Ellis. In the

last few months, he has been, for all of

us, a near constant irritant.

I, like everyone else here, agreed to

participate simply to stop the prodding.

Callum Ellis.

Thank you very much for that for a while.

My mother was born

just at the age of Dublin

in . She faced

the particular challenge of marrying

an English political essayist and raising

a son in London, soLet me tell you,

she'll be flushed with pride when she

learns that I've finally become what

she'd always prayed I'd be. A near

constant irritant.

We are fortunate to be unexpectedly

joined by Vice President Hal Weiler.

Of course, the Vice President is without

question the most exciting news this

afternoon, but he's not the only exciting

news. Beryl Tanley is here with us

today. Beryl will be sharing how

the Data Alliance will support her work

on fluctuation in the migratory roots of

Songbuzz. That is exciting. Beryl,

can you stand for a moment, please?We're

all very eager to hear more. We are. I

know I am. Stop it.

How's lunch?Did you know about this?A

little birdie told me. Actually, it took

a flock of like, 260 little birdies to

pull this off. Why?

Why?Is he going to Seoul for that

Carnegie thing?No. Stuart,

if he's meeting with the Iranians in my

own embassy and I don't know about it, we

are gonna have a problem. Ma'am, it's for

your anniversary.

That's... so nice. Is

it gonna wreck my whole week?No!only a

little. Tomorrow they got you doing some

power couple press. They've got an

interview lined up with

Suzanne Hotchkiss. I did like 4

interviews last week. Oh, this is the two

of you. The anniversary was part of the

appeal. So Suzy Hotchkiss knew and I

didn't?Voters like you as a couple. Some

press mighthelp pass the aid bill. That

is literally the dumbest thing I've ever

heard. Royal Lenning's got this country

through Brexit. It's at the Foreign

Office. It'll look royal. Yeah, whatever.

We're trying to play ball, ma'am. They

agreed to substantially reduce your

secret service package. Yep. So we owe

them a yes. I just said yes.

Is everything okay, ma'am?A cicada

brood just hit my house. I like a little

notice.

Are you all right?Are you?

Your spouse has the mightiness day for

our town. And you

accepted?We were with *******

Beryl, a good refuse. Yeah, you could.

He knows.

Yeah. You said you'd be fine with it?

Quietly uncoupled or... inidly

apathetic?

Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah. Very nice one.

No, it's just the top of the cypress. See

it?It's on the left there. Yeah. Big

pocket mask. Yeah. They don't use

twigs like tree limbs. Yeah, yeah, I

think I can see it. It's impressive, huh?

That's an osprey. Oh, a heron. The

grey heron. Whitfield hosts a big bird

count every year. It's public, but

there's an organization sending a team to

do an official count. They spotted it.

The Royal Society for Protection of

Birds. I don't know. I wasn't able to

attend. I was making a concerted effort

to be literally anywhere else in the

world.

He should make sure he knows when it is

this year. It was June, I think.

Do you remember?I will have to look at

it. Yeah, I think it was June. Yeah, they

look like pterodactyls. They're

big. Do you work in

large bergs?Yeah.

Yeah, Bert was all about the songbergs,

to be heard in exhaustive detail. They

sing and are small.

Is that your bag?No. I'll

give you 20 more questions or maybe you

just tell me it's fine. Just curious,

it's the least I could do. I'm not asking

if he's a leg man or a breast man, I'm

just trying to figure out

what he does in a great gawning universe

that is ornithology.

you can tell him what you're really doing

go ahead, tell him he'll hear about it in

the daily brief soon anyway um

a Kremlin contact of mine from the

Minsk course has unofficially

shared as it will be checked

out of the nearest high window if anyone

found out that um Moscow

has lost contact with the submarine asset

Amid their current distractions, they're

unable to mount a proper search with. So

I have asked the Nazi nations

to pool their marine sensor data in the

hopes of finding the sub. Tell

them what kind of sub. Nuclear

powered. Presumed distress,

maybe leaking radiation into the coastal

waters of a number of

countries, including Britain and Denmark.

who told me to talk to Ambassador Wyler,

who'd revamped their maritime early

warning system. Barrel is

MI6.

So really, you know **** all about birds.

Okay. Okay, indeed.

So he's a spook. No. Oddly, we

don't call them spooks. We call them bird

watchers. Spies. Really?

Yeah. A pair of binoculars and an

interest in small specks in the sky.

There's an overlap in the fields.

He worked foreign affairs for the Labour

government, has relationships on both

sides of the aisle. I know something of a

negotiator at large who ***** my wife we

should go just trying to establish the

facts right now no you he can't be

now he's combobbing the second lady which

I've figured out in less than a second

the Secret Service probably did too he

didn't that why you dumped your detail I

didn't dump them significantly reduced I

mean I can see why you less than a second

that's alarming husband knows not my

experience oh you've done this before no

um cheated on as it happens so you know

how this feels you were not being cheated

onYou and I agreed. We are no longer

partnered in that manner. We are

no longer partnered in that manner,

Calum. I know I'm relieved. Knock Cal's

over. Thank you for stopping by. Scoot on

out. That'll continue. The bossing around

said much, much worse. You are correct,

sir. I can make this much, much

worse.

Calum.

on I am so sorry he's a good guy

could a lot worse I'm

just I'm so sorry

ambassador in a day or so he's going

to go back to Washington and I'm going to

take all your clothes off

Why do you want to do this?

I thought it was going to be Dennis. I

did too. Are you still in the

mix?No.

Lost interest?

Swing and a miss.

Brutal.

He's seeing someone now. Oh ****.

Yeah, I met her. She's great.

Which means?A little boring.

Which I think is probably okay.

This guy doesn't see boring at all.

Tell the RSO?I told the RSO that I'm

working with him on a confidential

project. I didn't specify. How

confidential?You tell the CIA?No.

Well, you need to get on that right away.

Eager can come and take a statement. I'll

call the director. Well. Here's what you

did. President Penn...

who has seventeen weeks under her belt

she now has to deal with the woman who

couldn't be bothered to work in the pan

my house was asked for the United States

Secret Service at astronomical cost to

protect her abroad so she would be free

of an unemployed foreign national who

spends most of his time trading secrets

with the Russians so it's a national

security threat or just a financial crime

and a betrayal of the women's movement

gosh it's hard to know where to start

isn't it

where where is itWhere does

it happen?Here?

No. Where?You

don't want to know. I don't.

Unfortunately, I have to. Because since

you're so practically reckless, I have to

have some sense of where to begin to

clean up with this ******* **** *****.

Did you seem to have no problem wiping

across the American flag?

Where?There's a room in

the defense ministry annex where we'd

meet to work on today's event. It has a

private bathroom. We **** in the shower.

You chose this. You

chose the vice presidency. I know that.

Ambassador, I...

okay please let them know that the vice

president is on the call as we're facing

a delay

Richard I don't want to rush the vice

president he made us shut down to Belber

Square and he's not taking question I'll

call you when we're back in the

Are the captains of industry losing their

ship?Good for them.

We're also high, Admiral

Nelson. Trip coming.

Wow. You could see this. He's such a

sweet.

Oh, yeah. I'm going. I'll get you a

statue. I was the first, the

worst. He had his head

chopped off, just down the block. Well,

slowed him down.

Hi.

What are you doing tonight?

Ooh, tonight I'm going to the theater.

And then I have a long luxurious meal at

an overpriced French place. Nice.

I'm working late and going home.

You were joking. I was.

Want to have a drink with me?

Sure.

How many of the visitor apartments are

empty?

Is this for your whack to use?No. It is.

And the answer is no. Why not?

I can't fill the space we keep for

visiting dignitaries with your herd of

oxy-addicted wannabe informants. Sure you

can. Is

this why you asked me out?No. Jesus

Christ. Oh, don't do that to me. We've

been through way too much.

I'm drowning, okay?

All I do is talk to desperate people

who need a lifeline but have no intel. So

I can't give them a lifeline.

And I thought maybe

I deserve some happiness. Just a cup of

******* misery. Maybe I don't need to

surrender to depression. Maybe

you and I could

have a drink.

Sorry.

You know, open doors. We're calling it

open legs now because it's not working

and we're getting ******. Hal owes you

one for the anniversary thing.

Tell him London is not the place to run

it. You have too much else going on. Is

that a good idea?

Let Kate know if the thinking gets

through.

I still can't give you the apartments,

but if the drink is unrelated- It is!

Then I accept! Yeah?

I'm going to try to speak to the Vice

President this afternoon. Wanted to give

you the heads up.

When?I'm just getting

into it.

Um... Our marriage, um...

Our marriage has always been complicated.

They all are. They're not all quite as

visible.

We have a

public marriage, but not a

private one. Ma'am,

you don't have to tell me anything, but I

do, because if he asks to talk to you,

then I'm asking to speak to him. Not

the other way around.

Oh. Great.

What were you two, uh, going to chat

about?The walk-ins. I'd

like to ask him to shut it down. Do it.

But not on this visit.

He's here. This is presumably when he

deals with issues that are... Here.

He's the vice president of the United

States. He doesn't trip on an issue and

just put it on the agenda. My station has

ceased to function as anything other than

a clearinghouse for walk-ins. We got a

woman who claims she's the mother of

Saddam Hussein's love child, and he did

have a nuclear weapon, and she knows

where it is. The Chechen

Lenkov colonel says he knows the truth

about the HMS Courageous,

which is that America was behind

the attack, but if I get his kid into

Eton, he promises he won't tell.

We have a guy who claims China sent a dog

to Mars, and he knows because it

was his dog. Who's the Chechen colonel?

Alleged colonel, probably a bartender.

We are so behind, I've got a junior

analyst on our second week running

traces. But that's your job.

Ma'am, I know what my job is.

I'd love to be able to do it.

Which is why I need a minute on your

husband's agenda. I will talk to him. You

should check out that, Colonel.

I think I've had a misunderstanding. I

wanted to speak to the Vice President

because I'm doing too much make work, not

too little. I mean, the subject is the

U.S. We take a closer look. Maybe this

guy's the start of a disinformation

campaign sent here to get a story into

official channels. This is the kind of

thing that destroyed two U.S. elections.

I'll get into it. Come find me when

you're done. Hal and I have an interview

at the Foreign Office, but if it's

something, you know, I want to share it

with him.

All good?No?If

you need to reach me right away, please

call my office.

You've reached our time. Did you get a

message?

Ma'am, we are just pulling off the phone.

I need to speak to him before the

interview. He's right here. Why don't Igo?

Absolutely not. Ma'am, he's on another

call, but we'll be ready. I can hear him.

Listen to me. We had a fight last night.

He is still mad, but I need to speak with

him privately before this starts. There

is a non-zero possibility we're gonna

have to cancel the interview. But, no,

the interview is time for a house push on

the aid package. I know, but...

Um... Noir, I will talk to you when you

get here, but I need him for a minute

before we go in. What are

you doing there?Meeting with Dennison and

the Permanent Undersecretary. And the

meeting is right here?No, it's Kanskas. I

just wanted to say... Hi, and you have,

but now you have to go before the Vice

President, who is uncharacteristically

***** walks in the door. Lunch was

a banger. Did exactly what it was

supposed to be. Really?Even the Dutch?

They're all in. We're already getting

dated from censors in six countries.

That's amazing. Go, uh, we're going to

see you. Now get the **** out. It doesn't

the **** you. I'll send this out there.

We need to talk. That's why you wanted me

to hurt?I did not know he was going to be

here. We need to talk somewhere private.

Well, there's an annex in the defense

ministry that should be free. I figure it

has a shower.

told you to me I don't know what's your

piece on top 29 you hit it

right on the head well someone

has to mention that the Emperor's naked

and it's cold out you're the only one

brave enough to do it I'm so sorry

Suzanne can I spill my husband for a

quick moment I think we should just jump

straight in I've kept these people

waiting long enough can you pull your mic

that'd be rude this might be

a Bulgarian moment

waiting on a report from Idris she's

coming here but if it's what I'm

concerned it is it might be prudent to

reschedule this interview so I

don't see another

time you're here I'm sorry are we

cancelling what no no

unfortunately your mic is live hate to

intrudes rescheduling could be very

disappointing no we're not let's do it

come join us Susan how hi

MikeYou

gave my crew quite a fright there. Yeah,

just a miscommunication. Let's do it.

Can we slide their chairs just a bit

towards the centre?We got it.

Moore?

Dr. Moore. Wonderful.

Britain's Knitten, Mr. Vice President.

Is that a phrase you're familiar with?Yes

it is. Oh my goodness. Your wife has won

the hearts of the nation. This country

has been so warm, so welcoming. The

affection is truly mutual. You're sharing

her, aren't you?With all of us. I

certainly am. And she's sharing you.

She's not just married to the man

anymore. She's married to the American

government. What must that be like?

She's always been married to the American

government. That's something that

happened long before I came into the

picture. I like a job with a reliable

pension. Indeed. Is she the power

behind the throne?Second lady, first

advisor?No, she's an ambassador. When our

closest ally came under attack, the

choice was made to send in an experienced

and highly skilled diplomat and to

pull her from post, just because she was

unlucky enough to be married to me. would

be a blow to the national security of

both countries. It's a terrible blow. Can

I just correct the record?

Being married to Hal is not bad luck. My

husband has always been the

most impactful influence on the

person and professional I am today.

I am and I always have been the most

fortunate of wives.

Beautiful. I would like to, if I

may, ask a few questions about the Law of

the Sea Treaty. which I believe owes

its American ratification to you. Cut,

please. Are we all right?

I'm so sorry. Can we pause for a moment?I

believe we already did. Hal, you are

needed in the reading room.

Gratting the third of steak.

You seem to think that we're still a part

of our lives where you point in Iran.

We're not. Peter had a walk-in. He was

telling the CIA that America was behind

the carrier attack.

Tell him about the walk-in.

Tee checks out. Boris Andreyev,

'43, born in Grozny. We ID'd him in

photos of Russian military parades going

back 15 years. He was Roman Lankov's

guy in Mali. Worked for Lankov?Yeah, but

he's gotten squeezed since Lankov's

death. So it stacks up that he's looking

for an escape hatch.

Is everything okay?

Security Council?Not yet. Just the

President. She should go, right?All three

of us need to be there. Oh, you know.

There are four people in the U.S.

government who know. I am one of them.

Don't you think we should be in the same

room?Give me your

phone.

Sir?Nora, prep Air Force II to get off

the ground in 20 minutes. He needs to get

back to Washington. No, the president's

not in Washington. I'm against it. Yeah,

tell her to set up the temporary flight

restriction. We're not ready for

clearances. You're getting on a plane

right now. Why?

If she's briefing the president, she

needs to understand the situation.

The United States was responsible for the

British carrier attack.

if Lenkov knew and he told the staff

as it came over, the story's going to

come out.

Can you say the first part one more time?

We were responsible for the carrier

attack.

Fetch you another?

If you would.

You know what?No second thought.

I'm good.

We take a shot at persuading the Colonel

he misheard or misunderstood.

Or that it was just one more Kremlin lie.

He's a tool in a disinformation campaign

deployed to wind us up. It doesn't help

our inevitability problem, but maybe it

buys us time.

Should I bring in the ambassador so the

three of us can discuss it?

No.
