All language subtitles for Madam Secretary 1x16 - Tamerlane (English)

I've put the full weight
of the Justice Department

behind this operation.

We'll have eyes, ears and GPS

on Director Munsey 24-7.

He will have no ability to
contact anyone by any means

at any time.

He will have no access to
anything with a signal...

or anything that could be used

as a communication device of any kind.

We'll give him the appearance of freedom,

monitoring him discreetly,

so no one other than him will know.

Mr. President, I assure
you that Director Munsey

won't be able to renew
a magazine subscription,

much less reach out
to his co-conspirators.

And we're sure we're on
solid legal footing here?

Munsey admitted plotting an illegal coup

against Iran, in direct violation

of Executive Order 12-triple-three.

We have 72 hours to do what we please.

Then the firing squad.

It's still available to me, isn't it, Mary?

I'll tell the boys

at Terre Haute to start
cleaning their rifles.

- Thank you, Madam Attorney General.
- You bet.

Thank you, Mr. President. Madam Secretary.

Well,

that buys us a few days

without Munsey's co-conspirators

- knowing that we're onto him.
- In the meantime,

there's an imminent
coup in the works in Iran

- with our fingerprints all over it.
- Secretary Marsh and Munsey

had the full power of the
State Department and the CIA

at their disposal...
whatever they planned...

it's got to be big.

And yet we are completely in the blind.

Maybe we just warn the Iranians.

I know Javani...

he's a pragmatist,

and even with the trust
that we've built up,

without concrete reason to think otherwise,

he'll assume it's a ploy.

Not to mention Shiraz and the ayatollahs.

Mm...

It'll bury the peace talks
and put us on the road to war.

We need operational details.

Something that we can take to the Iranians

to prove that we're not behind the coup.

The task force

has found nothing so far on
Munsey's computers, phone...

The key to any post-coup
structure would be a leader.

I have some ideas who that might be.

I can get into it.

Get into it fast.

Hey.

Thank you for coming on such short notice.

Of course.

I have a lot to tell you
and not a lot of time,

so forgive me for skipping
the sensitivity preamble.

Secretary Marsh was murdered.

And he and Andrew Munsey
were plotting a coup

against the regime in Iran.

I know.

But right now, I need you to
call in the rest of the staff.

Though there is one of them
that I need to speak to first.

Uh, Madam Secretary?

Can I come in?

Of course.

I know I'm not exactly your
favorite person these days.

Hey, Matt.

- Uh, ma'am.
- I saw your car parked out front.

I got the text about going
to the office, so, um...

so, see you.

You bet.

Um...

Thank you.

Daisy, I don't really care,
but if you really believe that

no one knew you guys were still together,

then I strongly advise

you never go into clandestine services.

Copy that.

And speaking of secrecy,

I came here tonight to apologize for

keeping you in the dark.

If I were you,

I would've skipped that
last press conference, too.

But now I'm gonna come
clean, because I need you.

Okay?

Okay.

Secretary Marsh's plane
crash wasn't an accident.

But-but why?

Why then kill Marsh?

I don't know.

Except clearly it had something to do

with the coup conspiracy.

Help me

figure out who else is behind this

and I promise you we will get
justice for Secretary Marsh.

Sounds like he already got justice.

Sabotaging a plane and
killing the secretary,

three crew members and two DS agents

isn't justice, Jay.

But it is nothing compared to

the bloodbath that's coming
if we can't stop the coup.

What do you need, ma'am?

Based on my knowledge of the Iranian

opposition community,

I've come up with a list of seven

potential coup leaders.

I'm hoping that you can
help me narrow it down.

Uh, it's not Ahadi or
Pejman... Marsh thought

- they were lightweights.
- He was pretty distrustful

of Khorsandi.

He called him the Rat of Ramin.

- Definitely not him.
- Okay.

Well, that's good; we're down to four.

We've got Kadivar, Soroush,

Abdollah and Alinejad.

Let's see if we can connect any of them to

Secretary Marsh and Andrew
Munsey within the last year.

- Yes, ma'am.
- Yes, ma'am.

Does anyone really know
anyone else, really?

I know people.

Yes, but do you really?

Okay, Soroush was in Toronto on April 10,

same day that Vincent Marsh

was in Ithaca, New York, fund-raising.

They're not too far apart.

Maybe they met somewhere in the middle?

For a romantic tryst in Niagara Falls?

- Oh...
- Cancel the honeymoon suite.

Munsey was in Tampa.

Okay, I'm not ready to
throw Marsh completely

under the bus... I mean, even
though the coup was misguided,

he wasn't without his good qualities.

And what, pray tell, might those have been?

Hold on a second.

Abdollah was in Paris April 22,

Marsh was in Berlin.

Does anybody know where
Munsey was? Was he in Europe?

- April 22?
- Yeah.

The director was at Langley.

Well, say what you want
about Secretary Marsh.

He was a family man.

He was a good father and husband.

Please.

Okay, Alinejad and Munsey

were both in Jamaica the weekend of May 9,

stayed at resorts on
opposite sides of the island.

- What about Marsh?
- He was on his ranch outside Caracas.

Damn it.

This is useless. I mean, obviously

they never all sat down together.

What was that date again, Jay?

Uh, Jamaica, May 9 to 11.

Secretary Marsh was also
in Jamaica that weekend.

Nadine, I'm looking at
his official schedule.

Which I personally fabricated.

Daisy, whatever good was in that man,

he most definitely was not a good husband.

But he always said such
nice things about Mrs. Marsh.

Not when he was in bed with me.

That'd be kind of rude, I guess.

Uh, so...

Marsh made an off-the-books
trip to Jamaica

the same weekend as...

Munsey and Alinejad.

Okay, that can't be a coincidence.

I mean, I-I think we have our affair.

I mean, coup leader.

I'll let the secretary know.

You get back after 4:00

in the morning and you still have time

to get the Laffy String.

Hey, just because the fate of
the world hangs in the balance

does not mean that we shirk
family birthday tradition...

Do not, don't you dare.

So how is the fate of the world?

- Well, you know as much as I know.
- That bad, huh?

Yay. You guys got the Laffy String.

Well, you only turn 16 once,

- Noodle.
- Yes.

Besides, how else are we going to have

the most epic Laffy String fight ever?

Now that I'm back, you're all going down.

- Oh, no... - No, I'll tell you
who's going down: the Ziglantians.

Today's the day I break
into the Fortress of Night.

Well, enjoy killing
Ziglantians while you can, dude,

because Monday morning,

- you're gonna be back with the humans
- Ugh.

at Monroe Junior High.

Where a wise-ass like you might end up

getting whacked like a Ziglantian.

I got public school, okay?

It's better than the freaks at Westmore.

It's so weird you got expelled.

If by "weird" you mean "awesome".

Hey, Nadine. What do you got?

Jafar Alinejad, huh?

Timing fits.

They met with him the month after

you committed to the
peace talks with Shiraz.

I have the NSA and INR

- trying to connect him to a coup.
- Well, I can see

Marsh and Munsey going for him.

He's Western-educated.

Decorated Iran-Iraq War veteran.

Served as ambassador to the UK in the '90s

but broke with his government

- when he got disillusioned with
the hardliners. - Lives in exile

in Canada these days, but
his brother Ahmed is still

a brigadier general in
the Revolutionary Guard.

So he already has inroads to the military.

Let's not forget if we're
right about Alinejad,

he was part of the plot

that led to the murder of Secretary Marsh.

Of course.

But why don't you meet with him.

Off the books.

You really think he'd give up anything?

No.

But see what you make of him.

Conrad, you're not considering

getting on board with the coup?

I need to consider the best way forward.

No matter the path that led here,

so... let's vet Alinejad.

Really?

Do we have a problem, Elizabeth?

No, sir.

Thank you, Mr. President.

Not bad for a life in exile.

Makes you wonder why he'd
ever want to go back to Iran.

A little thing called power.

Is it really that alluring,

history of mankind notwithstanding?

I understand you left a horse farm

to become Secretary of State.

Well, the president
asked, I answered the call.

Yeah, the power's pretty awesome, too.

Speaking of which...

he's literally riding in on a white horse.

Well, you gonna

lead a bloody coup, confidence is good.

When Ayatollah Ruhmeini
took power, we clashed

on foreign policy and nuclear ambitions.

I quit my post in protest.

Next thing I know, his
henchmen are following me,

harassing my family.

We barely made it out alive.

This same lunatic

still rules my beloved country.

We understand you'd like to change that.

- Do you?
- We know about the coup.

Good.

Really?

Because the U.S. is backing

another path to reconciliation.

You wouldn't be here

if you weren't ready to
back my vision for Iran.

What exactly is that vision?

No more false promises of
redistribution of oil wealth,

a real restructuring of the economy,

fair elections, free trade with the West,

moderation.

Across the board.

Pretty lofty goals.

It's what a vast majority
of the people want.

But it will never happen
under the ayatollahs.

Shiraz is no more than a puppet.

But he is still the
president, and, like it or not,

the, uh, Green Revolution
failed not long ago.

Because I wasn't there.

The people know me. So
does much of the government.

And the army.

They will rally behind me.

My predecessor, Vincent Marsh,
is dead because of your plan.

You shouldn't be so confident.

I had nothing to do with that.

Change is messy.

We can have the Canadians detain you.

But you won't.

Because that would invite chaos.

Which is the opposite of
what you wish for my country.

He's impressive.

- Very.
- I think I'm gonna recommend

to the president that we consider

getting behind this coup.

Well, you might want to hold off on that.

Realpolitik, Elizabeth.

Forget past atrocities.

- Focus on the future.
- It's the future

that I'm concerned about.

What do you mean?

A few years ago, I had an uncle

who had that same graying in the pupils,

spider veins

around the temples, just like

Alinejad.

I'm afraid Iran's great
savior might be dying.

I wonder how Benedict Arnold's staff

- fared after the whole treason thing.
- I don't remember

reading about them in Social Studies class.

I'll wager when they went
looking for their next gig,

they weren't helped much

by Mr. Arnold's letter of recommendation.

All right, I'm the only
one here who didn't work

for Secretary Marsh, so I can't engage

in this delightful pity party,

but I'm pretty sure we
all still have good jobs.

We won't when the scandal breaks.

Corrupt Secretary of State

murdered by a corrupt CIA Director.

Not going to play well.

The entire administration
could come tumbling down.

Including the State Department?

Pity party it is.

- So, Nadine...
- Yeah.

- you and Marsh...
- Right.

How long are we talking?

- Matt.
- What?

It's okay.

I am done with secrets.

Since his time as a senator.

Six years.

I am so sorry, Nadine.

Don't be.

He was planning on dumping me

before announcing his
presidential run, so...

one way or the other,

he was gonna get killed.

We're gonna need another round.

He's being treated at Sloan Kettering

for brain cancer.

How bad is it?

He'll be dead within two months.

And as arrogant as Alinejad is,

I agree with him that he's the only one

that can hold that country together.

Even if the coup succeeds,

odds are the government
will crumble when he dies.

Be another Iraq.

Then we have to make sure
the coup never happens.

We still don't have enough to take

- to the Iranians.
- I'm tired of hearing

what we can't do, Russell!

And we're running out of time.

How the hell are we gonna
get the Intel we need?

Bring in Alinejad.

And what? Waterboard him?

Well, threaten to deport his grandkids,

for starters.

Let me take one more run at Munsey, sir.

- Two months to live, huh?
- It's called

a glioblastoma... it's one of
the fastest moving brain cancers.

The president has authorized me

to grant you full
immunity, Director Munsey,

as long as you play ball.

Get out of jail free card

for killing the Secretary of State.

You can't beat that.

- I'm humbled. But no, thanks.
- Andrew,

without Alinejad, the coup fails.

You know that.

There's no immunity for what he's got,

but you can save yourself.

Somehow, I doubt your sincerity.

What does my sincerity
have to do with anything?

Not your heart.

Your brain scan.

You think that's tradecraft?

God sakes, Andrew, look at me.

All I see is a cold, calculating operative.

That's why I have enjoyed
working with you, Elizabeth.

You're gonna spend the rest

of your life in solitary. Think about that.

Unless Mary here goes for the needle.

Can you give us a minute?

Bess...

you're out of moves.

Tell me about Juliet.

She's your friend. I know.

Was she coerced?

No.

She's a patriot.

How is she?

Righteous.

Look, I think we're done here.

I've got a Real Housewives marathon

to get back to.

I'm sorry we have to end like this.

So am I.

Ah, good.

I'm glad I don't have to wake you up.

I don't like the sound of that.

I've been at the White House.

Yeah, for quite a while.

I had to convince the president that

the only way out of this little
pickle in Iran is to go there.

Please tell me that you
mean for him to go there.

Henry.

No. I have always got your back,

but going to Iran when
there's a coup in the works?

- No, I'm playing the husband card.
- Babe, listen to me,

if this coup moves forward and takes out

the current government, Iran
will become a failed state.

- You know... - Stop. I know you're gonna
say this is what you signed up for,

there are millions of lives at stake,

- but I...
- What part of this do you disagree with?

Okay... there are

God knows how many radicals
who would love to kill you.

That's why it's a secret mission.

They won't even know I'm there.

Okay, look.

The whole point of my going

is precisely because of the risk. How else

are we going to send the
message that we really

have nothing to do with this coup?

So now you admit... it's risky.

And sanctioned by the president.

You can take it up with
him, if you want to.

Maybe I will.

Henry.

Come on.

I'm gonna be okay.

I love you.

I will be fine.

But just in case I'm not...

Are you really gonna go there?

I think that you should wait a year.

- And there you go.
- To remarry.

Yes, I got that.

I'm not having this conversation.

You'll be a hot commodity.

Oh...

I'm just saying that,

for the sake of the kids,

I think a year is a respectful
amount of time to wait.

Fine. A year. Are we done?

Then there's the question of to whom.

Seriously? You have a list?

More like parameters.

I think we're talking
north of 40 here, with 35

as the floor for somebody
really spectacular.

Okay, I'm not Hugh Hefner.

- 40 is just fine.
- Good.

And while I don't have a
list of approved women...

Oh, my God. You have rejects?

I do. Renee Brown.

Oh, no. What is wrong

with Renee Br... Okay, okay.

You're saving the world. No Renee Brown.

Is there anyone else

- off-limits?
- Maria DeLuca, Denise Chang,

Vera Petrovic, Erin
Blackshaw, Odette Norwood...

Do I need to make my case there?

I won't even accept their lasagnas.

Good. Make sure the kids

don't like new Mrs. McCord
more than they like me.

Well, I'm marrying her, and
I already don't like her, so...

Is that it?

Well...

what else do you think we need to cover?

If this is our last night together...

Computer passwords?

Wow. That is so hot.

No, it's red, yellow, green, blue.

- What, Mr. Biv? Really?
- Yeah.

My birthday, my rules.

No, you mean OCD. But fine.

Good morning, guys.

Good morning! T-minus one day

till pancakes and Laffy String wars.

- Look what I just dug out of
a box in the garage. - Yes!

What? I love this apron.

You better. You'll be
wearing it tomorrow morning.

- Yeah, listen, Ali, about that...
- Oh, no.

Well, a little work
trip just came up, and...

You know what, let's do the
Laffy String fight right now.

You want to?

We can't do it before my birthday.

We'll just do it when you get back.

Well, it might be a few days. Are you sure?

Yeah. And Dad will make pancakes tomorrow.

- It's fine.
- Yes, done.

Okay.

So, where are you headed?

I can't say.

But I will call tomorrow
morning, of course,

and I'll be back before you know it, okay?

- Okay.
- Be good.

And do not annoy your sister
too much on her birthday.

Give her a little birthday break.

What happened to being true to myself?

Love you.

Keep the world safe for democracy.

I'll try. Bye.

Noodle, I am so bummed about
ditching you on your Sweet 16.

- I feel awful.
- It's fine. Just come back fast, okay?

As fast as I can.

- Ah...!
- Mwah!

Okay.

- See you later.
- I love you.

- Love you, Mom.
- Love you! See you later.

Love you.

Red, yellow,

green, blue.

So, last night...

Whew...

We got to pretend it might
be our last time more often.

...I talked to Andrew Munsey about Juliet.

I-I'm sorry I didn't tell you earlier,

- but with everything going on...
- No. It's okay. What did he say?

That she's righteous.

So... that's good, I guess.

And...

this is mostly about the kids. And you.

A little bit of Juliet thrown in.

You don't have to go.

You can still...

I'll see you in a few days.

Thank you, Marcia. Keep the change.

You bet, Director Munsey. See you tomorrow.

Don't worry... got extra bear claws.

Uh, I hit the coffee
pretty hard this morning.

Can you see it in your heart
to let me use the bathroom?

Give me a sec.

Come on. You seriously
think I'm gonna Godfather it?

Hello?

Tamerlane needs to move up.

Where have you been?

I'm made.

And they know about Alinejad.

But they don't know anything else.

- You sure?
- Sure enough.

This is the green light.

Tamerlane is a go.

- Copy?
- Copy that.

Tamerlane is a go.

Your little counterintel plan worked...

we gave Andrew a little breathing room,

and he made a call.

To who?

Someone inside Iran near
the Bandar Abbas Air Base.

I just sent you the coordinates.

- So what was the conversation?
- We don't know.

He used dynamic encryption,
we couldn't bug it.

- What about his side?
- Yeah, he knew we'd be listening.

Drowned it out.

Well, obviously he called co-conspirators

and told them that he was made

and to go ahead without him.

Unless they called it off 'cause he's made.

Or moved it up.

Keep your head down, all right?

Zahed.

Elizabeth, please come in.

- Welcome to Iran.
- Mm.

Three words I wasn't
sure I would ever hear.

- Please.
- Thank you.

Allow me to introduce my wife, Marajel.

- Pleasure to meet you.
- So nice to meet you.

Thank you for having me
in your home secretly.

Must feel a little strange,

- I'm sure.
- It's politics.

I knew what I was getting
into when I married Zahed.

That's good.

I actually kind of sprang it on my husband.

I have to say, Marajel, I'm an admirer

- of your work.
- You know my work?

Your three buildings in
downtown Tehran... it's the...

Zarand Commercial Tower.

It's, well, it's my personal favorite.

Really impressive.

I'm impressed that you even
know that I'm an architect.

Former CIA. She studies
her enemies, darling.

- English, Katan. Don't be rude.
- Sorry, Mother,

but is it?

Yes, this is

- my friend, Secretary of
State Elizabeth McCord. - Hi.

- My sons Abdol and Katan.
- Nice to meet you.

So you're from the Great Satan?

Abdol, really?

A joke, Mother.

- I thought it was funny.
- You're lucky

our guest is forgiving.

Americans can joke about themselves.

It is part of their culture.

Is that not true, Secretary McCord?

Okay, first of all, your
English is better than my kids'.

And secondly, yes,

Americans can laugh about themselves.

Although not enough politicians do.

I understand that you have
three children, Elizabeth.

I do. I have two girls and

I have a boy who's 13, just about your age,

I bet, yeah? Not quite yet?

Secretary McCord and I
should get down to business.

Hey, don't you boys have homework, huh?

- Come on, now.
- Oh...

- So long.
- Thank you.

Please.

You have a lovely family.

Thank you. But, uh, I know you didn't

come all this way just to meet them.

Our intelligence services have uncovered

a plot against your government.

A coup.

We believe it to be quite credible.

Why couldn't you have just
called to tell me that?

Because at least two high-level

United States officials are behind it.

Who?

I can't divulge that.

But very powerful,

very senior officials.

We don't have the details yet,

but it will be well-planned
and well-executed.

Zahed, these people only play to win.

And their goal is a complete regime change,

from the ayatollahs down.

And how do I know President
Dalton isn't backing it

and you're here as a smoke screen,

or a hedge if it fails?

I was worried you might think that.

And that's why I came.

With very little security
in order to keep it secret.

I'm basically your hostage,
if you don't believe me.

I do have

one strategic piece of information

that I believe will demonstrate

that I'm on your side.

What is it?

It's the coordinates of
a call that was received

from the man who might be the ringleader.

In Hormozgan Province.

Near the Bandar Abbas Air Base.

Might be the group's headquarters.

I strongly advise you to
bring this to President Shiraz.

Mmm! Smells good!

Hey, happy birthday.

- Oh...
- Happy birthday, Noodle.

You're wearing the apron.

Yeah, of course I am.

God, how old was I when I made that?

Uh... four.

I think Ms. Janey helped
you out a little bit,

but you did all these letters
yourself, which I still contend

makes you a genius.

I think I'm getting a little
old for these traditions.

Well, if we don't keep doing these things

then they're not traditions, right?

I don't know. With Mom's insane job

and still getting used
to school and the move,

the security guys outside...

You wearing the apron
and making pancakes just

feels like... normal.

Come here.

Things change.

But not me making
pancakes on your birthday.

Is this what it was like
when Mom was in the CIA?

- A little.
- I know that Stevie remembers,

but I was only, like, six when she quit.

Do you know where she is?

Yes.

Tell me. Dad, I'm 16.

Yes, you are,

but the problem with knowing
secret things, Noodle,

is that, then, you know them.

And... they have a way of slipping out.

You're worried about her, aren't you?

Hello?

Hey.

Happy birthday, Noodle.

Ah, I miss you so much,

I can't stand it.

Thanks, Mom. Where are you?

Not with you. Which is

- such a bummer.
- What are you looking at?

- A room.
- Ah, so you're

somewhere with rooms, are you?

- Really narrows it down, huh?
- What do you see

outside of your window?

A street.

Trees.

Oh. Darn, I've said too much,

didn't I? You couldn't

break Dad, huh? Now you're trying me.

Yup.

Yeah, he's pretty tough.

Especially when he's
wearing the "Chef Dad" apron.

- Say, can I talk to him?
- Sure. Love you.

I love you, too. To the moon.

Thank you.

Hey, babe.

- We miss you.
- I miss you, too.

Hey.

Maybe when I get back, you
can model that apron for me.

Au naturel.

I'm not on speaker, am I?

Baby, I should go.

I love you.

I love you, too. Bye, babe.

Bye.

- Did you talk to Alison?
- I did.

That was Shiraz.

I gave him the information you provided.

He's already passed it
along to a special army unit,

extremely loyal to us.

I am very glad to hear that.

- How's your daughter?
- Too old.

But if I had to miss her birthday,

there's nowhere else I'd rather be.

Well, I am glad you chose me

as your CIA boyfriend, Elizabeth.

Well, me too. Fortunately,

I've always had good taste in men.

You know, you coming here, um...

Shiraz, Ayatollah Ruhmeini,
the other ayatollahs...

we're impressed.

Especially me.

Well, you took the first step,

coming to see me in DC.

The thought wouldn't have crossed my mind

to come here, if you hadn't done that.

Elizabeth McCord, I think
this is the beginning

of a beautiful friendship.

Father, I can't

figure out this algebra problem.

Oh, been there.

Try again. If you are still
having trouble, I'll help you

after I'm done...

Madam Secretary, get down, get down!

- Madam Sec...
- Oh!

Abdol.

Abdol, stay down.

Where are we?

Sir, the Iranian Army

and the Revolutionary
Guard are fighting elements

among their own ranks
that are well-equipped

- and highly motivated.
- What about Secretary McCord?

We lost touch with her detail right after

the attack at Minister Javani's house.

How could we just lose
the Secretary of State?

It was a massive assault.

We're getting reports that Javani is dead.

It's possible that
Secretary McCord's detail

was completely overwhelmed.

Does the State Department
know anything, Ms. Tolliver?

We've been back-channeling
through the Swiss

and Czech embassies in
Tehran, but so far nothing.

I have one of Secretary McCord's
detail on a video feed...

- John Kendall.
- Put it up, Major.

Mr. Kendall, do you have the secretary?

Negative, sir.

The detail fragmented under the attack.

Fred Cole was killed.

I was forced to take cover.
By the time I was able

to get back to the house, it was on fire.

Could she have gotten out?

I honestly have no idea.

Now, with the power grid
down, any chance at rec...

What the hell happened?

The Iranians just jammed
all communications.

Admiral Hill, send up a recon team.

I want helos in the air
on the Iranian border

the moment we locate Secretary McCord.

Yes, sir.

Mr. President, we're getting reports

of attacks on government leaders,

including President Shiraz
and Ayatollah Ruhmeini.

Are they dead?

We can't say for sure, sir.

We might be getting behind this thing

whether we like it or not.

BBC's Web site

just went up with news of the coup.

Yeah.

Don't go easy on me, Dad.

If I ever did, and I'm
not admitting anything,

that ends now that you're 16.

Whoa. Coup.

What's cool, J?

No. No, not cool.

A military coup.

Where?

Iran. It's like a civil war there.

Oh, God, just what the Middle East needs...

more instability.

Right, Dad?

History of the world.

Sounds like more work for Mom.

Your move, Dad.

Oh. Give me one second.

Hello.

Dr. McCord, it's Nadine Tolliver.

Hey. What's up?

Is she alive?

- Don't give me the company line, Russell.
- I honestly don't know.

Then tell me exactly what you do know.

I'm sorry, Henry, Nadine
already told you everything.

I want to hear it from you.

We believe her security detail was overrun.

How-how is that even possible?

It was a deliberately small footprint.

Deliberately small.

Elizabeth signed off on it

to maintain covert mission integrity.

You and the president knew the risk.

You signed off on it, too.

Yes. I did.

Conrad.

Henry, I want to find her
just as much as you do.

Well, I appreciate that,
but let me be clear:

If she doesn't make it,

and I find out that you
left any asset untapped,

any strategic option unexplored,

if you've missed any
opportunity to save her,

I swear to God, I will
hold you responsible.

Henry, remember who you're talking to.

It's okay.

You find her.

Bring her back.

Hi.

You heard something about Mom, didn't you?

She's 16 now, Dad.

You should tell her

that Mom is in Iran where
the coup is happening.

How did you know?

I'm not stupid. Neither is Ali.

But she couldn't have
known there'd be a coup.

She was hoping to prevent it.

Is she okay?

I don't know.

- Oh, my God.
- Wow.

You guys look serious.

That is 'cause we're seriously

planning a Laffy String
attack on you, dummy!

Oh, no, no, no, no.

Damn the torpedoes!

The horror! The horror!

Aah!

It's a cookbook! It's a cookbook!

Can you at least ask if maybe

there's a landline
telephone that I can use?

I have to get in touch with my government.

- I assure you there is nothing.
- That's not possible.

Your intelligence services
have to be communicating

with the outside world.

Not from here.

Then... maybe something...

If it changes, you get me, like,
an e-mail or text, something.

You're bleeding.

- It's nothing.
- I will get you a medical officer.

Well, at least Jason
is sleeping peacefully.

Kid's the poster child
for blissfully unaware.

Yeah.

You're good sisters,
protecting him like that.

I don't remember if I told Mom I love her.

When she called this morning.

She knows you love her, Noodle.

She knows we all do.

Excuse me, Secretary McCord.

President Shiraz.

I'm glad you're okay.

I can say the same of you.

Please.

Should I assume since you're
here that the coup has failed?

Yes.

In part because of the information

your government provided.

If you hadn't come,

we might have assumed the
United States backed it.

Minister Javani is dead.

Yes.

A tragic loss.

Zahed was my friend.

And partner.

Mine, too.

I'm sorry.

He respected you.

I'm speaking on behalf of
President Dalton when I say

that I hope that our peace
talks will move forward.

I share this hope.

But now, I fear

there will be too many bodies to bury.

She's alive.

Bess is fine.

Oh, thank God.

We should, uh... we should probably think

about what we're going to put out there.

I don't need to.

Set up a national address.

Well, shouldn't we get
our stories straight first?

No. No cover-up.

Mr. President...

Trust me, Russell. I'd be
all for paving this mess over

if I thought we could,
but you and I both know

there's going to be a feeding frenzy.

We're better off just
getting everything out.

Cover-up's worse than the crime and such?

Set it up.

Hello.

Yeah. Okay, thank you.

Thank you.

Mom's okay. She's coming home.

Oh...

♪ Ooh... ooh... ♪

We don't know all the details yet,

but they will surely come out

in the coming days and months.

We do know that certain
high-level officials

in the United States
government were involved.

We also know

that Secretary of State Vincent Marsh's

plane crash was not an accident.

Today, I promise you this:

We will leave no stone unturned.

There will be no secrets.

And the guilty, whoever
they are, will be punished.

In moments like this,
when we experience shock,

when we find our faith challenged,

all Americans must look inward.

The pillars of this nation are strong.

And the strength of our
national character is greater

than that of those who wish us harm.

Moving forward, you can be confident

that your government is working

toward a peaceful
resolution to this crisis.

In doing so, we honor

Foreign Minister Zahed Javani of Iran.

Minister Javani

and other moderate
members of his government

lost their lives in pursuit of this cause.

Even yesterday,

while the coup was unfolding,

Secretary McCord was
on the ground in Tehran,

working behind the scenes

to end the longstanding
conflict between our nations.

Let us remember the immortal
words of our 16th president.

"With malice toward none,

"with charity for all,

"with firmness in the right

"as God gives us to see the right,

let us strive on to
finish the work we are in."

God bless you.

And God bless the United States of America.
