Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:01:43,250 --> 00:01:44,960
It's there for leverage
2
00:01:44,961 --> 00:01:47,087
so that we can lock down
performance standards.
3
00:01:47,088 --> 00:01:48,922
You don't toss around their
right to collective bargaining
4
00:01:48,923 --> 00:01:50,174
like a poker chip.
5
00:01:50,175 --> 00:01:52,134
If we don't, they won't budge.
6
00:01:52,135 --> 00:01:54,094
Has Marty Spinella seen this?
7
00:01:54,096 --> 00:01:55,764
Not the version I showed him.
8
00:01:55,765 --> 00:01:57,182
So you lied to his face.
9
00:01:57,183 --> 00:01:59,934
No. I revised the parameters of my promise.
10
00:01:59,935 --> 00:02:00,935
Which is lying.
11
00:02:00,936 --> 00:02:02,187
Which is politics...
12
00:02:02,188 --> 00:02:04,564
the sort you're well versed in, Bob.
13
00:02:04,565 --> 00:02:06,024
Here's some politics for you.
14
00:02:06,025 --> 00:02:07,818
I allow this to go to the floor,
15
00:02:07,819 --> 00:02:09,861
I get murdered next election.
16
00:02:09,862 --> 00:02:11,863
This is coming from the President.
17
00:02:11,865 --> 00:02:13,449
Last time I checked,
18
00:02:13,450 --> 00:02:15,117
I was still a Democrat, Frank,
19
00:02:15,118 --> 00:02:16,536
and you were too.
20
00:02:16,537 --> 00:02:18,746
Are you telling me the President isn't?
21
00:02:18,747 --> 00:02:21,624
Because he's acting a hell
of a lot like a Republican.
22
00:02:21,625 --> 00:02:23,292
I thought Bob was on our team.
23
00:02:23,293 --> 00:02:25,712
Just sit him down with
the President ten minutes.
24
00:02:25,713 --> 00:02:27,547
We won't touch collective bargaining.
25
00:02:27,548 --> 00:02:29,340
Are you interested in my advice on this,
26
00:02:29,341 --> 00:02:30,842
or do you just want me
to deliver the message?
27
00:02:30,844 --> 00:02:32,678
I'm always interested
in your advice, Frank.
28
00:02:32,679 --> 00:02:35,138
Birch is right. You're going
to burn a lot of bridges.
29
00:02:35,139 --> 00:02:36,765
The President should at
least sit down with him
30
00:02:36,766 --> 00:02:37,974
and let him make his case.
31
00:02:37,975 --> 00:02:39,643
You tell Bob
32
00:02:39,644 --> 00:02:41,729
I'm happy to schedule a
meeting with the President
33
00:02:41,730 --> 00:02:44,231
once he's set a date to
put this bill on the floor.
34
00:02:44,232 --> 00:02:45,816
The President can fuck himself.
35
00:02:45,817 --> 00:02:48,276
This is the platform. It's what he ran on.
36
00:02:48,277 --> 00:02:50,111
I don't give a shit what he ran on.
37
00:02:50,113 --> 00:02:52,741
He can't steamroll the house.
38
00:02:52,742 --> 00:02:53,907
And don't forget,
39
00:02:53,908 --> 00:02:55,243
you work for me, Frank, not him.
40
00:02:55,244 --> 00:02:56,703
If he wants something on the floor,
41
00:02:56,704 --> 00:02:58,996
he's gonna have to talk to me directly.
42
00:02:58,997 --> 00:03:01,750
I know you take a lot of
pride in your manhood, Bob,
43
00:03:01,751 --> 00:03:03,334
and it's impressive,
44
00:03:03,335 --> 00:03:04,669
but as big as it is,
45
00:03:04,670 --> 00:03:06,629
Linda can still shut the door on it.
46
00:03:08,130 --> 00:03:10,884
Tell Vasquez the bill is dead.
47
00:03:14,264 --> 00:03:15,514
That's not the first time
48
00:03:15,515 --> 00:03:17,099
he's pulled that stunt on me.
49
00:03:17,100 --> 00:03:18,475
Probably should have held my tongue,
50
00:03:18,476 --> 00:03:19,976
but I just couldn't resist the chance
51
00:03:19,977 --> 00:03:21,270
to see him shrivel.
52
00:03:24,981 --> 00:03:25,982
Good morning.
53
00:03:25,983 --> 00:03:27,192
Frank.
54
00:03:27,194 --> 00:03:29,571
Mr. President.
55
00:03:29,572 --> 00:03:31,281
Linda.
56
00:03:31,282 --> 00:03:33,700
Let's strike the anti-collective
bargaining provision
57
00:03:33,701 --> 00:03:34,868
from the bill.
58
00:03:34,869 --> 00:03:36,160
Linda and I have talked it over,
59
00:03:36,161 --> 00:03:37,704
and I think she's right on this.
60
00:03:37,705 --> 00:03:39,539
Tell Bob he can come by tomorrow afternoon.
61
00:03:39,540 --> 00:03:41,332
Sir, respectfully, I do not think
62
00:03:41,333 --> 00:03:43,167
you should give him the satisfaction.
63
00:03:43,168 --> 00:03:44,252
Well, give me a reason.
64
00:03:44,253 --> 00:03:45,670
Makes us appear weak.
65
00:03:45,671 --> 00:03:47,088
There's an opportunity for you
66
00:03:47,090 --> 00:03:48,466
to establish your supremacy.
67
00:03:48,467 --> 00:03:49,842
We should seize it.
68
00:03:49,843 --> 00:03:51,176
But without Birch's cooperation,
69
00:03:51,177 --> 00:03:52,595
we're fighting an uphill battle
70
00:03:52,596 --> 00:03:54,388
before we even get the bill to the floor.
71
00:03:54,389 --> 00:03:55,473
Frank, we discussed this.
72
00:03:55,474 --> 00:03:56,766
Sir, if you give in now,
73
00:03:56,767 --> 00:03:58,643
Birch will walk all over you
74
00:03:58,644 --> 00:04:00,144
for the next four years.
75
00:04:00,145 --> 00:04:02,688
I can get this bill on
the house floor as is.
76
00:04:02,689 --> 00:04:04,148
I promise you.
77
00:04:07,945 --> 00:04:09,571
All right, Frank. Show me what you can do.
78
00:04:09,572 --> 00:04:10,823
Thank you, Mr. President.
79
00:04:15,034 --> 00:04:17,537
That was her trying to
take credit for my idea.
80
00:04:17,538 --> 00:04:20,332
Advice she wouldn't take
from me... unacceptable.
81
00:04:20,333 --> 00:04:22,125
I will not allow her to sell my goods
82
00:04:22,126 --> 00:04:24,210
when she cuts me out of the profits.
83
00:04:24,212 --> 00:04:26,130
I specifically told her no interviews.
84
00:04:26,131 --> 00:04:27,465
She disobeyed me...
85
00:04:27,466 --> 00:04:28,842
not just once.
86
00:04:28,843 --> 00:04:30,301
At least eight times in the past month.
87
00:04:30,302 --> 00:04:31,719
She stays, Tom.
88
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:34,180
She has no respect for
my authority, Margaret.
89
00:04:34,181 --> 00:04:36,265
I said she stays.
90
00:04:36,266 --> 00:04:37,642
There are rules.
91
00:04:37,643 --> 00:04:38,852
There's a way of doing things.
92
00:04:38,853 --> 00:04:39,894
If I have a reporter...
93
00:04:39,895 --> 00:04:41,312
two freshmen girls
94
00:04:41,313 --> 00:04:43,189
are moving into their dorm room together.
95
00:04:43,191 --> 00:04:44,483
One of them's from Georgia,
96
00:04:44,484 --> 00:04:46,234
one of them's from Connecticut.
97
00:04:46,235 --> 00:04:48,111
The girl from Connecticut's
helping her mother
98
00:04:48,112 --> 00:04:49,363
put up curtains.
99
00:04:49,364 --> 00:04:50,865
The girl from Georgia turns to them
100
00:04:50,866 --> 00:04:52,908
and says, "hi. Where y'all from?"
101
00:04:52,909 --> 00:04:55,243
The girl from Connecticut
says, "we're from a place
102
00:04:55,244 --> 00:04:57,913
where we know not to end a
sentence with a preposition."
103
00:04:57,914 --> 00:05:01,834
The girl from Georgia
says, "oh, beg my pardon.
104
00:05:01,836 --> 00:05:03,085
Where y'all from...
105
00:05:03,086 --> 00:05:04,086
Cunt?"
106
00:05:04,087 --> 00:05:06,006
You heard that one before?
107
00:05:07,298 --> 00:05:09,926
A version of it. With softer language.
108
00:05:09,927 --> 00:05:11,761
Tom, we don't need people
who follow the rules.
109
00:05:11,762 --> 00:05:13,471
We need people with personality.
110
00:05:13,472 --> 00:05:17,017
We want Zoe's face, her energy.
111
00:05:17,018 --> 00:05:19,143
We want to get her on
TV as much as possible.
112
00:05:19,144 --> 00:05:21,730
It helps us cut through the noise.
113
00:05:21,732 --> 00:05:23,148
See what I'm saying?
114
00:05:24,901 --> 00:05:26,151
I hear you, Margaret.
115
00:05:26,152 --> 00:05:28,404
Thank you, Tom.
116
00:05:31,114 --> 00:05:32,700
Thank you.
117
00:05:37,998 --> 00:05:39,080
Come in.
118
00:05:41,543 --> 00:05:43,837
Oh. I, uh, thought...
119
00:05:45,213 --> 00:05:46,965
I wanted to say hi to Evelyn.
120
00:05:46,966 --> 00:05:48,884
Evelyn?
121
00:05:48,885 --> 00:05:50,260
This was her office.
122
00:05:50,261 --> 00:05:52,303
I don't think she works here anymore.
123
00:05:52,304 --> 00:05:54,096
- Oh.
- Gillian Cole.
124
00:05:54,097 --> 00:05:55,766
I came on board a couple of weeks ago.
125
00:05:55,767 --> 00:05:57,267
Gillian. World well.
126
00:05:57,268 --> 00:05:58,936
Yeah.
127
00:05:58,938 --> 00:06:00,145
I've heard great things.
128
00:06:00,146 --> 00:06:01,230
Remy Danton.
129
00:06:01,231 --> 00:06:03,190
You work with Claire?
130
00:06:03,191 --> 00:06:04,233
In a way.
131
00:06:04,234 --> 00:06:05,777
Hello, Remy.
132
00:06:05,778 --> 00:06:07,194
Claire.
133
00:06:07,195 --> 00:06:08,696
I see you've met Gillian.
134
00:06:08,697 --> 00:06:09,989
Yes, just now.
135
00:06:09,990 --> 00:06:11,741
She's doing fantastic work for us,
136
00:06:11,742 --> 00:06:13,034
as you can see.
137
00:06:13,035 --> 00:06:14,577
Red is completed wells,
138
00:06:14,578 --> 00:06:17,329
green, uh, potential sites,
139
00:06:17,331 --> 00:06:18,665
yellow approved sites,
140
00:06:18,666 --> 00:06:21,167
and blue are the filtration centers.
141
00:06:21,168 --> 00:06:23,754
Nice. So you liking it here?
142
00:06:23,755 --> 00:06:25,798
Yeah. My staff and I are loving it.
143
00:06:25,799 --> 00:06:27,340
Claire's opened a lot of doors for us.
144
00:06:27,341 --> 00:06:28,801
Sounds like Claire.
145
00:06:28,802 --> 00:06:30,761
Shall we head to my office?
146
00:06:30,762 --> 00:06:32,304
Gillian, nice to meet you.
147
00:06:32,305 --> 00:06:33,973
Nice to meet you.
148
00:06:33,974 --> 00:06:35,181
What happened?
149
00:06:35,182 --> 00:06:37,810
Things got complicated.
150
00:06:37,812 --> 00:06:40,897
San corp was in a difficult situation.
151
00:06:40,898 --> 00:06:42,398
I would have thought you'd step up
152
00:06:42,399 --> 00:06:43,817
when things were difficult,
153
00:06:43,818 --> 00:06:45,652
not hold the donation hostage.
154
00:06:45,653 --> 00:06:47,570
Well, things are less complicated now.
155
00:06:47,571 --> 00:06:49,656
The donation is back on the table.
156
00:06:51,866 --> 00:06:54,201
I had to fire half my staff.
157
00:06:54,202 --> 00:06:55,453
Now you can hire them back.
158
00:06:55,455 --> 00:06:56,831
San corp is prepared
159
00:06:56,832 --> 00:06:58,415
to double its initial commitment...
160
00:06:58,416 --> 00:07:01,293
1.5 million, lump sum, this quarter.
161
00:07:01,294 --> 00:07:03,462
- Why?
- Public relations. Same as before.
162
00:07:03,463 --> 00:07:05,631
And what do they want from Francis?
163
00:07:06,757 --> 00:07:08,174
Things are square with Frank.
164
00:07:08,175 --> 00:07:09,510
We're only talking about the C.W.I.
165
00:07:09,511 --> 00:07:10,636
But why double it?
166
00:07:10,637 --> 00:07:11,971
Because I said they should.
167
00:07:11,972 --> 00:07:13,764
The more they give, the more you can do.
168
00:07:13,765 --> 00:07:16,017
The more you can do, the better they look.
169
00:07:16,019 --> 00:07:18,061
And that's why they hired Glendon Hill...
170
00:07:18,062 --> 00:07:19,146
to make them look good.
171
00:07:19,147 --> 00:07:20,313
And they also hired you
172
00:07:20,314 --> 00:07:21,481
to get traction in congress.
173
00:07:21,482 --> 00:07:22,816
Not in this case.
174
00:07:22,817 --> 00:07:25,027
We want a long-term partnership, Claire.
175
00:07:25,028 --> 00:07:27,278
This is an investment in the future.
176
00:07:27,279 --> 00:07:29,197
We're not attaching strings.
177
00:07:30,991 --> 00:07:32,450
I'll think about it.
178
00:07:32,451 --> 00:07:34,243
They'd really love to move quickly on this.
179
00:07:34,245 --> 00:07:36,914
I said I'll think about it.
180
00:07:36,915 --> 00:07:39,249
Madeleine, you have to email me this shit.
181
00:07:39,250 --> 00:07:40,584
I need it in writing.
182
00:07:40,585 --> 00:07:43,462
And with more than an hour's notice.
183
00:07:43,463 --> 00:07:45,673
Yeah, I know that, but
you have to understand
184
00:07:45,674 --> 00:07:47,008
we... we have a plan.
185
00:07:47,009 --> 00:07:48,634
We have a way that we do this,
186
00:07:48,635 --> 00:07:49,844
and when you...
187
00:07:53,223 --> 00:07:54,725
okay.
188
00:07:54,726 --> 00:07:56,309
Fine.
189
00:07:57,310 --> 00:07:59,312
Yeah. Yeah. Bye.
190
00:08:02,774 --> 00:08:04,359
Madeleine has decided to have
191
00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:06,486
a spur-of-the-moment trip to Orlando
192
00:08:06,487 --> 00:08:08,488
with her latest eharmony catch.
193
00:08:08,489 --> 00:08:09,531
No heads-up, no warning.
194
00:08:09,532 --> 00:08:10,615
The kids?
195
00:08:10,617 --> 00:08:12,368
They get out of school at 2:30.
196
00:08:12,369 --> 00:08:14,453
I can do the shipbuilders meeting.
197
00:08:14,454 --> 00:08:16,164
You sure?
198
00:08:16,165 --> 00:08:18,249
Yeah, it's just a public affairs team.
199
00:08:18,250 --> 00:08:20,334
I'll brief you, and then
you can call them tomorrow.
200
00:08:20,335 --> 00:08:21,711
Go get your kids.
201
00:08:35,809 --> 00:08:36,936
Hey.
202
00:08:42,482 --> 00:08:45,652
Remy came by this morning. To the office.
203
00:08:45,653 --> 00:08:46,904
What does he want?
204
00:08:46,905 --> 00:08:48,447
The donation's back on the table.
205
00:08:48,449 --> 00:08:51,325
They've doubled it to 1.5 million.
206
00:08:51,326 --> 00:08:53,828
- You said no, right?
- I didn't.
207
00:08:53,829 --> 00:08:56,873
He doesn't want anything from you, Francis.
208
00:08:56,874 --> 00:08:58,917
Come on, Claire. You know better than that.
209
00:08:58,918 --> 00:09:00,585
I specifically asked.
210
00:09:00,586 --> 00:09:01,920
Maybe not right now,
211
00:09:01,921 --> 00:09:04,589
but look, I invented this guy, all right?
212
00:09:04,590 --> 00:09:06,007
It's a slippery slope. You open the...
213
00:09:06,008 --> 00:09:07,801
Think of what I can do with this money.
214
00:09:07,803 --> 00:09:09,386
I can hire back the people I let go.
215
00:09:09,387 --> 00:09:10,846
I can help accelerate the funding
216
00:09:10,847 --> 00:09:12,848
for the projects that
Gillian has brought in.
217
00:09:12,849 --> 00:09:14,767
Let's find another way to raise the money.
218
00:09:14,768 --> 00:09:16,435
But it's right there at my feet.
219
00:09:16,436 --> 00:09:18,980
Claire, I have too much
on my plate right now.
220
00:09:18,981 --> 00:09:21,149
I can't have San corp
breathing down my neck again.
221
00:09:21,150 --> 00:09:22,733
I can't have Remy...
222
00:09:22,734 --> 00:09:24,110
look, it is Remy.
223
00:09:24,111 --> 00:09:26,237
He knows me too well. It's dangerous.
224
00:09:26,239 --> 00:09:29,532
Look at the bigger picture here.
225
00:09:31,743 --> 00:09:32,828
I'm asking.
226
00:09:32,829 --> 00:09:34,955
No. You're not.
227
00:09:40,669 --> 00:09:41,920
Claire.
228
00:09:42,921 --> 00:09:44,339
I'll tell you what I told him.
229
00:09:44,340 --> 00:09:45,674
Which was?
230
00:09:45,676 --> 00:09:47,010
I'll think about it.
231
00:09:56,102 --> 00:09:57,687
I know there's been some tension,
232
00:09:57,688 --> 00:10:00,439
and I'm probably more
to blame than you are.
233
00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:02,233
But I'd like to put that behind us.
234
00:10:02,234 --> 00:10:04,610
Zoe,
235
00:10:04,612 --> 00:10:06,905
you're going to be our new
White House correspondent.
236
00:10:08,032 --> 00:10:09,283
What about Janine?
237
00:10:09,284 --> 00:10:11,535
I promoted her to Midwest Bureau chief.
238
00:10:11,536 --> 00:10:12,995
She's okay with that?
239
00:10:12,996 --> 00:10:14,371
She wants to give up the White House?
240
00:10:14,372 --> 00:10:15,956
It's the decision I've made.
241
00:10:15,957 --> 00:10:19,543
It's just that Janine
has so much experience.
242
00:10:19,544 --> 00:10:21,337
I thought you'd be more excited about this.
243
00:10:21,338 --> 00:10:25,841
I'm sorry. I... I just
thought you brought me in here
244
00:10:25,843 --> 00:10:27,844
to... I don't know.
245
00:10:27,845 --> 00:10:29,470
To fire you.
246
00:10:29,471 --> 00:10:31,681
Maybe.
247
00:10:31,682 --> 00:10:34,309
Water under the bridge.
248
00:10:34,310 --> 00:10:35,560
We're starting over.
249
00:10:36,936 --> 00:10:39,814
So are you ready to take this on?
250
00:10:41,607 --> 00:10:42,817
Can I think about it?
251
00:10:44,195 --> 00:10:45,821
People usually don't have to think about it
252
00:10:45,822 --> 00:10:47,365
when they're offered the White House, Zoe.
253
00:10:47,366 --> 00:10:48,699
Just a day or two.
254
00:10:48,700 --> 00:10:50,284
Janine is booked for a flight
255
00:10:50,285 --> 00:10:51,451
to Chicago on Friday.
256
00:10:51,452 --> 00:10:52,828
I'll let you know before then.
257
00:10:52,829 --> 00:10:55,164
I just need to...
258
00:10:55,165 --> 00:10:57,541
thank you. Thank you, Tom.
259
00:11:05,175 --> 00:11:07,261
David Rasmussen is the majority leader,
260
00:11:07,262 --> 00:11:08,762
which means he's one step above me
261
00:11:08,763 --> 00:11:10,264
and one below Birch,
262
00:11:10,265 --> 00:11:12,307
which is akin to being
between a very hungry wolf
263
00:11:12,308 --> 00:11:13,725
and a very quarrelsome sheep.
264
00:11:13,726 --> 00:11:15,394
Let's see if he stays with the herd
265
00:11:15,395 --> 00:11:16,770
or joins the pack.
266
00:11:16,771 --> 00:11:18,688
David. You mind if I join you?
267
00:11:18,689 --> 00:11:21,024
Please. A salad, huh?
268
00:11:21,026 --> 00:11:23,361
Yes. I'm trying to take
better care of myself.
269
00:11:23,362 --> 00:11:24,695
Good man. Diet?
270
00:11:24,696 --> 00:11:26,989
Diet, exercise, everything.
271
00:11:28,741 --> 00:11:31,535
You ought to take better
care of yourself too.
272
00:11:31,536 --> 00:11:33,829
Well, they should stop
serving such good pizza.
273
00:11:33,830 --> 00:11:36,332
Oh, I'm not talking about the food.
274
00:11:36,333 --> 00:11:38,126
I'm talking about Birch.
275
00:11:40,296 --> 00:11:42,214
You are never going to be speaker
276
00:11:42,215 --> 00:11:43,632
unless you do something about it.
277
00:11:43,633 --> 00:11:45,508
I'm very satisfied where I am.
278
00:11:45,509 --> 00:11:47,552
- Oh, come on.
- For the time being, yeah.
279
00:11:47,553 --> 00:11:48,678
Time being never.
280
00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:50,264
The only way you become speaker
281
00:11:50,265 --> 00:11:52,266
is if Birch loses his district or retires,
282
00:11:52,267 --> 00:11:53,642
neither of which is going to happen
283
00:11:53,643 --> 00:11:55,394
before you and I have dentures.
284
00:11:55,395 --> 00:11:57,020
I'm not happy where this
conversation is going, Frank.
285
00:11:57,021 --> 00:11:59,356
If you want it, and I know you do,
286
00:11:59,358 --> 00:12:00,733
there's a way.
287
00:12:00,734 --> 00:12:02,484
Okay. Right. I can't...
288
00:12:02,485 --> 00:12:05,322
all you need is a simple
majority... 218 votes.
289
00:12:05,323 --> 00:12:07,740
We're going to get at
least 205 out of the G.O.P.,
290
00:12:07,741 --> 00:12:09,491
and after that, all you
need is 13 Democrats.
291
00:12:09,492 --> 00:12:11,202
You and I make two.
292
00:12:11,203 --> 00:12:12,454
Are you out of your mind?
293
00:12:13,955 --> 00:12:17,417
Just consider it for a moment.
294
00:12:18,710 --> 00:12:20,212
You want to collude with the Republicans?
295
00:12:20,213 --> 00:12:21,630
I don't want to, but I would
296
00:12:21,631 --> 00:12:23,382
if you become speaker in the process.
297
00:12:23,383 --> 00:12:24,591
Never been done before.
298
00:12:24,592 --> 00:12:26,718
There's a first time for everything.
299
00:12:26,719 --> 00:12:28,012
This is ridiculous.
300
00:12:28,013 --> 00:12:29,347
The Republicans would love a chance
301
00:12:29,348 --> 00:12:31,265
to knock Bob down a peg or two.
302
00:12:31,266 --> 00:12:32,475
And you want to help them.
303
00:12:32,476 --> 00:12:33,976
I want to help us.
304
00:12:33,977 --> 00:12:37,438
Bob will not play ball
with the White House.
305
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:39,858
Now, you're a reasonable
man, David, and he's not.
306
00:12:42,319 --> 00:12:44,488
You know what I am?
307
00:12:44,489 --> 00:12:46,239
I'm a discreet man.
308
00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:47,531
You're lucky for that.
309
00:12:47,532 --> 00:12:49,368
I'm not going to mention this to Bob,
310
00:12:49,369 --> 00:12:51,244
but if you ever bring it up again,
311
00:12:51,245 --> 00:12:53,246
I won't have a choice.
312
00:12:55,791 --> 00:12:58,503
Looks like he opted for the herd.
313
00:13:04,258 --> 00:13:07,887
Claire. I'd like to put an
order for the water filters
314
00:13:07,888 --> 00:13:10,515
and the well-digging equipment
for the South Sudan project.
315
00:13:10,516 --> 00:13:11,640
Can we talk about the budget?
316
00:13:11,641 --> 00:13:13,809
- How much?
- 200,000.
317
00:13:13,811 --> 00:13:15,020
For one project?
318
00:13:15,021 --> 00:13:16,897
I know it's a lot, but it'll be
319
00:13:16,898 --> 00:13:18,815
our flagship project in Africa,
320
00:13:18,816 --> 00:13:20,775
and we would be the
first organization there
321
00:13:20,776 --> 00:13:22,152
to work on this scale.
322
00:13:22,153 --> 00:13:24,570
I'd like to go over the specifics first.
323
00:13:24,571 --> 00:13:25,947
I have the budget right here.
324
00:13:25,948 --> 00:13:27,115
Let me just grab my messages,
325
00:13:27,116 --> 00:13:28,325
and then I'll come in to you.
326
00:13:28,326 --> 00:13:30,827
Okay. I'll be in my office.
327
00:13:30,828 --> 00:13:32,454
Any calls while I was out?
328
00:13:32,456 --> 00:13:35,833
They're on the desk, and
this came by messenger.
329
00:14:15,584 --> 00:14:17,419
Adam. It's Claire.
330
00:14:19,629 --> 00:14:23,174
Yes. I know. It has.
331
00:14:24,759 --> 00:14:27,429
No reason. I was just thinking about you.
332
00:14:30,015 --> 00:14:32,059
You're right. It is a lie.
333
00:14:32,060 --> 00:14:34,145
I do have a reason.
334
00:14:34,146 --> 00:14:36,314
I need to use you.
335
00:14:36,315 --> 00:14:38,107
The White House is where news goes to die.
336
00:14:38,108 --> 00:14:39,650
Everything's canned.
337
00:14:39,651 --> 00:14:41,152
These perfectly prepared statements...
338
00:14:41,153 --> 00:14:42,487
it's a prestigious job, Zoe.
339
00:14:42,488 --> 00:14:44,822
Used to be, when I was in ninth grade.
340
00:14:44,823 --> 00:14:46,365
Now it's a graveyard.
341
00:14:46,366 --> 00:14:48,618
The only halfway interesting thing they do
342
00:14:48,620 --> 00:14:50,496
is throw a big dinner party once a year
343
00:14:50,497 --> 00:14:51,955
where they pat themselves on the back
344
00:14:51,956 --> 00:14:53,999
and rub shoulders with movie stars.
345
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:55,208
Who needs that?
346
00:14:55,209 --> 00:14:56,709
Every day since you started here,
347
00:14:56,710 --> 00:14:58,337
you've begged me to move you up, and now...
348
00:14:58,338 --> 00:14:59,588
my goal in life is not
349
00:14:59,589 --> 00:15:01,381
to climb up the herald's ladder
350
00:15:01,382 --> 00:15:03,509
one rung at a time until
I've got my own stationery.
351
00:15:03,510 --> 00:15:05,969
Some of us value a career
at a paper like this.
352
00:15:05,970 --> 00:15:08,555
I'm sorry. I didn't mean
for that to come off...
353
00:15:08,557 --> 00:15:10,975
well, it did, and you skipped
a few rungs, by the way.
354
00:15:10,976 --> 00:15:12,310
Do what you want to do, Zoe,
355
00:15:12,311 --> 00:15:14,061
but if you want me to be your cheerleader
356
00:15:14,062 --> 00:15:15,771
and say, "yeah, turn it down," I won't.
357
00:15:15,772 --> 00:15:17,482
I would have killed for that job
358
00:15:17,483 --> 00:15:18,858
when I first started here.
359
00:15:25,907 --> 00:15:28,327
Put Fichtner in the "leaning yes" column.
360
00:15:28,328 --> 00:15:29,995
Don't you think he's a neutral?
361
00:15:29,996 --> 00:15:31,121
He hates Birch.
362
00:15:31,122 --> 00:15:32,289
Yeah, but he owes Birch
363
00:15:32,290 --> 00:15:33,541
for the ways and means appointment.
364
00:15:33,542 --> 00:15:35,000
Put him in "neutral." Who else?
365
00:15:36,793 --> 00:15:38,795
Ramirez is a neutral?
366
00:15:38,796 --> 00:15:41,006
Oh, this list is so shaky.
367
00:15:41,007 --> 00:15:42,757
Any one of them leaks it to Bob...
368
00:15:42,758 --> 00:15:44,301
no, what we need is one name,
369
00:15:44,303 --> 00:15:47,763
one person who can deliver 12.
370
00:15:48,806 --> 00:15:50,433
The black caucus.
371
00:15:53,061 --> 00:15:54,479
Womack.
372
00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:55,647
What can we offer him?
373
00:15:55,648 --> 00:15:56,772
What does he need?
374
00:15:56,773 --> 00:15:58,400
Let me pull up his file.
375
00:16:02,445 --> 00:16:03,988
Here we go.
376
00:16:03,990 --> 00:16:05,491
McCudden air force base
377
00:16:05,492 --> 00:16:07,284
employs 3,000 people in his district.
378
00:16:07,285 --> 00:16:08,994
It's on the D.O.D.'s
chopping block this year.
379
00:16:08,995 --> 00:16:10,580
Who do we know on the Brack commission?
380
00:16:10,581 --> 00:16:12,415
That's dangerous.
381
00:16:12,416 --> 00:16:13,832
The trail leads back to us
382
00:16:13,833 --> 00:16:15,418
trying to influence
the D.O.D. or the Brack.
383
00:16:15,419 --> 00:16:17,587
No, no, no. What we do
is we close another base.
384
00:16:17,588 --> 00:16:19,505
We leave enough money
in the D.O.D.'s budget
385
00:16:19,506 --> 00:16:21,674
to keep Womack's base off the list.
386
00:16:21,675 --> 00:16:23,092
What we need...
387
00:16:28,473 --> 00:16:30,517
Is someone we own.
388
00:16:33,311 --> 00:16:35,439
Dad, I'm hungry.
389
00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:36,565
Coming, buddy.
390
00:16:36,566 --> 00:16:38,900
Here we go.
391
00:16:38,901 --> 00:16:41,278
With cheese.
392
00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:42,363
Without cheese.
393
00:16:44,115 --> 00:16:45,408
Um, dad?
394
00:16:45,409 --> 00:16:46,618
Yeah.
395
00:16:46,619 --> 00:16:48,786
That looks pretty disgusting.
396
00:16:49,787 --> 00:16:51,664
Yeah, it looks disgusting.
397
00:16:51,665 --> 00:16:54,459
It's not how it looks, it's how it tastes.
398
00:16:54,460 --> 00:16:56,461
And a fork would be nice.
399
00:16:56,462 --> 00:16:58,630
Shit. Okay. Hold on.
400
00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:03,969
Hello.
401
00:17:03,970 --> 00:17:05,554
Good evening, Mr. Russo.
402
00:17:05,555 --> 00:17:07,097
There's a Mr. Underwood here to see you.
403
00:17:07,098 --> 00:17:10,142
Uh... Okay. Send him up.
404
00:17:23,990 --> 00:17:25,241
Hi, there.
405
00:17:25,242 --> 00:17:27,285
- Hi.
- Hi.
406
00:17:27,286 --> 00:17:29,203
This is Kevin, this is Sara.
407
00:17:29,204 --> 00:17:31,331
Hi. I'm Frank. Nice to meet you both.
408
00:17:31,332 --> 00:17:33,082
- Do you work with dad?
- I do.
409
00:17:33,083 --> 00:17:35,084
Congressman Underwood is daddy's boss.
410
00:17:35,085 --> 00:17:37,920
I thought you didn't have a boss.
411
00:17:37,922 --> 00:17:39,006
Everybody has a boss, sweetheart,
412
00:17:39,007 --> 00:17:40,716
even congressmen.
413
00:17:40,717 --> 00:17:42,092
Why don't you take your
dinner and go into the bedroom?
414
00:17:42,093 --> 00:17:44,219
- But I wanted to watch TV.
- Go now.
415
00:17:45,471 --> 00:17:46,472
Cute kids.
416
00:17:46,473 --> 00:17:47,807
Yeah, I like them.
417
00:17:47,808 --> 00:17:48,974
Can I get you a drink?
418
00:17:48,975 --> 00:17:50,976
No, I won't be here long.
419
00:17:50,977 --> 00:17:53,187
Yeah. Have a seat.
420
00:17:53,188 --> 00:17:54,438
Oh, thanks.
421
00:17:54,439 --> 00:17:56,398
Is that a ps vita?
422
00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:57,526
Uh...
423
00:17:59,486 --> 00:18:01,780
Which games does he have?
424
00:18:01,781 --> 00:18:03,281
All of them.
425
00:18:03,282 --> 00:18:04,491
I have a console at home.
426
00:18:04,492 --> 00:18:05,992
I play sometimes to relax.
427
00:18:05,993 --> 00:18:08,161
I ought to get one of these for the car.
428
00:18:10,622 --> 00:18:14,083
So, Peter, we need to close the shipyard
429
00:18:14,084 --> 00:18:15,293
in your district.
430
00:18:15,295 --> 00:18:16,671
The Brack hearing is tomorrow.
431
00:18:16,672 --> 00:18:18,172
You won't put up your usual fight.
432
00:18:18,173 --> 00:18:20,299
You have zero testimony to add.
433
00:18:22,092 --> 00:18:23,553
I can't do that.
434
00:18:23,554 --> 00:18:24,804
Yes, you can, Peter.
435
00:18:24,805 --> 00:18:26,347
I spent months on that testimony.
436
00:18:26,348 --> 00:18:28,766
I lobbied the commission.
My entire office...
437
00:18:28,767 --> 00:18:30,476
I'm sure you've done splendid work,
438
00:18:30,477 --> 00:18:32,395
but unfortunately it
can't come to fruition.
439
00:18:32,396 --> 00:18:34,397
- Why?
- Politics.
440
00:18:34,399 --> 00:18:36,567
There's forces bigger than
either of us at play here.
441
00:18:36,568 --> 00:18:37,901
It's 12,000 jobs.
442
00:18:37,902 --> 00:18:39,444
I know. It's a shame.
443
00:18:39,445 --> 00:18:41,613
Keeping that shipyard open
is what got me elected.
444
00:18:41,614 --> 00:18:43,114
Those people are my friends.
445
00:18:43,115 --> 00:18:45,242
I'm not here to debate this, Peter.
446
00:18:45,243 --> 00:18:47,411
The base will close.
447
00:18:47,412 --> 00:18:48,995
The only question is, will you make it
448
00:18:48,996 --> 00:18:50,789
a swift death or a painful one?
449
00:18:52,374 --> 00:18:54,710
No way. I won't sit on my hands.
450
00:18:54,712 --> 00:18:57,589
I sympathize that this is
gonna be difficult for you.
451
00:18:57,590 --> 00:18:59,340
And I don't know how yet,
452
00:18:59,341 --> 00:19:02,343
but I will make it up to you, Peter.
453
00:19:02,344 --> 00:19:05,555
I'm a powerful friend to have right now,
454
00:19:05,556 --> 00:19:07,557
perhaps your only friend,
455
00:19:07,558 --> 00:19:10,268
so don't defy me.
456
00:19:22,531 --> 00:19:24,450
Love of family.
457
00:19:24,451 --> 00:19:26,619
Most politicians are permanently chained
458
00:19:26,620 --> 00:19:29,413
to that slogan... family values.
459
00:19:29,414 --> 00:19:31,206
But when you cozy up to hookers
460
00:19:31,208 --> 00:19:32,333
and I find out,
461
00:19:32,334 --> 00:19:35,044
I will make that hypocrisy hurt.
462
00:19:38,131 --> 00:19:41,050
Did you get the present I sent you?
463
00:19:42,385 --> 00:19:44,971
You wouldn't really call it a present.
464
00:19:44,972 --> 00:19:48,349
Well, more of a gentle reminder, maybe.
465
00:19:48,350 --> 00:19:50,811
Mm, more heavy-handed than gentle,
466
00:19:50,813 --> 00:19:52,062
which surprised me.
467
00:19:52,063 --> 00:19:53,856
It's not really your style, Francis.
468
00:19:53,857 --> 00:19:57,109
But, yes. I got it.
469
00:19:57,110 --> 00:19:59,612
I like that one.
470
00:19:59,613 --> 00:20:00,780
I do too.
471
00:20:00,781 --> 00:20:02,156
But the first one's better.
472
00:20:02,157 --> 00:20:03,825
You think?
473
00:20:03,826 --> 00:20:05,701
Something special tomorrow?
474
00:20:05,702 --> 00:20:07,870
Adam Galloway's coming down from New York.
475
00:20:07,871 --> 00:20:09,121
What for?
476
00:20:09,123 --> 00:20:10,874
Because I need some of his photographs
477
00:20:10,875 --> 00:20:13,752
for the silent auction
at the gala next month.
478
00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:18,173
You speak to Remy yet?
479
00:20:18,174 --> 00:20:20,216
I haven't.
480
00:20:22,719 --> 00:20:25,347
If you want to look
inviting, wear the black one.
481
00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:30,979
Hello.
482
00:20:30,980 --> 00:20:34,858
Oh. Okay. Great. Thanks.
483
00:20:42,031 --> 00:20:43,324
Adam?
484
00:20:50,833 --> 00:20:52,793
How is it the world keeps spinning
485
00:20:52,794 --> 00:20:54,503
and you manage to stay ahead of it?
486
00:20:57,756 --> 00:20:59,049
David's on board with this?
487
00:20:59,050 --> 00:21:00,300
It was his idea.
488
00:21:00,301 --> 00:21:01,552
Then why isn't he here?
489
00:21:01,553 --> 00:21:02,678
Well, we have to be careful
490
00:21:02,679 --> 00:21:03,762
until it's a done deal.
491
00:21:03,763 --> 00:21:05,014
I don't know, Frank.
492
00:21:05,015 --> 00:21:06,056
Think about it, Terry.
493
00:21:06,058 --> 00:21:07,392
You could become the first
494
00:21:07,393 --> 00:21:08,935
African-American majority leader
495
00:21:08,936 --> 00:21:10,478
in the United States congress.
496
00:21:10,479 --> 00:21:13,231
Let's make some history.
497
00:21:14,733 --> 00:21:16,401
You don't care about history.
498
00:21:16,402 --> 00:21:18,862
You just wanted me because
I can round up the votes.
499
00:21:18,863 --> 00:21:21,531
I need the votes, and
I do care about history,
500
00:21:21,532 --> 00:21:22,991
but most importantly, Terry,
501
00:21:22,992 --> 00:21:24,910
you know how to lead.
502
00:21:24,912 --> 00:21:27,329
You're the head of the
black caucus for a reason.
503
00:21:29,122 --> 00:21:30,958
So David becomes speaker,
I become majority leader...
504
00:21:30,959 --> 00:21:32,543
and I stay on as whip.
505
00:21:32,544 --> 00:21:35,212
Why don't you want majority
leader for yourself?
506
00:21:35,213 --> 00:21:36,923
I'm satisfied where I am.
507
00:21:36,924 --> 00:21:38,465
Maybe one day, when you become speaker,
508
00:21:38,466 --> 00:21:40,342
you'll bump me up.
509
00:21:40,343 --> 00:21:42,504
This is the sort of thing
that there's no turning back.
510
00:21:43,722 --> 00:21:45,682
I can throw a cherry on top.
511
00:21:47,642 --> 00:21:49,061
McCudden stays open.
512
00:21:50,604 --> 00:21:51,646
How?
513
00:21:51,647 --> 00:21:53,398
You don't want to know how.
514
00:21:53,399 --> 00:21:54,733
You just want the headline
515
00:21:54,734 --> 00:21:57,069
when you keep 3,000 jobs in your district.
516
00:22:00,906 --> 00:22:02,783
- 12 votes?
- 12 votes.
517
00:22:02,785 --> 00:22:04,660
I can get you 10, probably 11.
518
00:22:04,661 --> 00:22:07,246
It's so refreshing to work with someone
519
00:22:07,247 --> 00:22:09,040
who will throw a saddle on a gift horse
520
00:22:09,041 --> 00:22:10,750
rather than look it in the mouth.
521
00:22:19,258 --> 00:22:21,260
That's nice.
522
00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:27,977
Wow.
523
00:22:27,978 --> 00:22:31,354
I found her in a village outside Amravati.
524
00:22:31,355 --> 00:22:32,940
Her name was Tiala.
525
00:22:32,941 --> 00:22:35,191
She died three weeks
after I took that picture.
526
00:22:35,192 --> 00:22:36,735
Oh, that's awful.
527
00:22:36,736 --> 00:22:38,904
You can have them all if you like.
528
00:22:40,698 --> 00:22:42,366
I love your hair short.
529
00:22:45,912 --> 00:22:47,288
Do you have plans tonight?
530
00:22:49,874 --> 00:22:50,917
No.
531
00:22:50,918 --> 00:22:53,336
Is Frank expecting you home?
532
00:22:53,337 --> 00:22:55,463
I'm sure he'll be home late.
533
00:22:55,464 --> 00:22:57,507
Get dinner with me.
534
00:22:58,676 --> 00:22:59,927
What time is your train?
535
00:22:59,928 --> 00:23:02,262
I don't book round-trip tickets.
536
00:23:05,390 --> 00:23:07,392
It's going to be a
while before I can leave.
537
00:23:07,393 --> 00:23:08,936
What time will you be done?
538
00:23:11,605 --> 00:23:13,398
Probably around 8:00.
539
00:23:14,692 --> 00:23:16,777
I'll pick a place,
540
00:23:16,778 --> 00:23:18,403
let you know.
541
00:23:31,334 --> 00:23:32,794
Ah. David.
542
00:23:32,795 --> 00:23:34,921
How are you, Joe?
543
00:23:34,922 --> 00:23:38,008
I'm behind you. Let's do this.
544
00:23:38,010 --> 00:23:39,093
Do what?
545
00:23:40,554 --> 00:23:42,220
Keep your cards close.
546
00:23:42,221 --> 00:23:43,764
I like that.
547
00:24:25,767 --> 00:24:30,146
Hi. Yeah. This is room 1214.
548
00:24:30,147 --> 00:24:34,609
I'd like a bottle of the Weinbach, please.
549
00:24:36,403 --> 00:24:39,531
Yeah. Actually, could
you make that two bottles?
550
00:24:40,449 --> 00:24:42,118
Thank you.
551
00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:44,078
Sit down. You're making me nervous.
552
00:24:50,667 --> 00:24:53,712
- You still smoke?
- From time to time, yes.
553
00:24:55,966 --> 00:24:59,343
I quit. These are an illusion.
554
00:25:00,721 --> 00:25:02,013
You want?
555
00:25:02,014 --> 00:25:03,389
Sure.
556
00:26:05,370 --> 00:26:07,165
What?
557
00:26:08,125 --> 00:26:09,710
Not now.
558
00:26:09,711 --> 00:26:11,920
Okay.
559
00:26:11,921 --> 00:26:14,006
I should go.
560
00:26:14,007 --> 00:26:16,967
- I just... it seemed...
- I know.
561
00:26:18,052 --> 00:26:20,304
We can't start this again.
562
00:26:20,305 --> 00:26:23,140
When I end something, I end it.
563
00:26:23,141 --> 00:26:27,102
So why'd you have me come all
the way down from New York?
564
00:26:27,104 --> 00:26:29,189
It was a mistake.
565
00:26:30,774 --> 00:26:32,275
I'm sorry, Adam.
566
00:26:32,276 --> 00:26:34,110
I should've kept it business.
567
00:26:35,820 --> 00:26:37,906
Side of you I like the least.
568
00:26:50,002 --> 00:26:52,380
There are no mistakes, Claire.
569
00:27:08,939 --> 00:27:11,691
- Hi.
- Hello.
570
00:27:11,692 --> 00:27:14,361
- More wine?
- Mm-hmm.
571
00:27:17,030 --> 00:27:19,116
How was your day?
572
00:27:20,951 --> 00:27:22,994
- Good.
- Adam well?
573
00:27:22,995 --> 00:27:24,996
He is.
574
00:27:24,998 --> 00:27:27,750
We just had dinner.
575
00:27:28,667 --> 00:27:30,460
Hmm.
576
00:27:31,461 --> 00:27:34,006
I e-mailed Remy on the way home.
577
00:27:34,007 --> 00:27:36,175
I told him I'm not taking the money.
578
00:27:41,222 --> 00:27:42,807
Thank you.
579
00:27:42,809 --> 00:27:44,935
I appreciate that this was not easy.
580
00:27:44,936 --> 00:27:47,229
Well, we don't like easy, do we?
581
00:27:47,230 --> 00:27:50,649
Oh, the evidence would suggest it.
582
00:27:50,650 --> 00:27:53,777
Is it all right if the Holburns
come over for dinner Wednesday night?
583
00:27:53,778 --> 00:27:56,322
I want Felicity to buy
some tables for the gala.
584
00:27:56,323 --> 00:27:58,782
Yeah, of course.
585
00:27:58,783 --> 00:28:01,118
I'm going to need congressmen
and senators there.
586
00:28:01,120 --> 00:28:03,537
- You need to call in favors.
- Done.
587
00:28:03,538 --> 00:28:05,123
Not a few, a lot.
588
00:28:05,124 --> 00:28:07,499
I'll start making calls in the morning.
589
00:28:08,793 --> 00:28:11,087
Adam donated ten photographs.
590
00:28:11,088 --> 00:28:13,214
That was generous of him.
591
00:28:16,634 --> 00:28:19,262
He's staying at the mandarin.
592
00:28:20,764 --> 00:28:23,184
And you?
593
00:28:23,185 --> 00:28:25,269
Here.
594
00:28:32,943 --> 00:28:35,029
But the proving grounds' importance
595
00:28:35,030 --> 00:28:37,990
stems far beyond it's
strategic geographic value.
596
00:28:37,991 --> 00:28:41,994
A.P.G.'s research and
development of military materiel
597
00:28:41,996 --> 00:28:45,581
is central to our nation's
counter-terrorism efforts.
598
00:28:45,582 --> 00:28:47,709
The base houses research laboratories
599
00:28:47,710 --> 00:28:49,294
for preventative medicine
600
00:28:49,295 --> 00:28:51,796
as well as a wide variety
of training grounds
601
00:28:51,797 --> 00:28:53,631
for military personnel.
602
00:28:53,632 --> 00:28:56,592
A.P.G. is also a job creator.
603
00:28:56,593 --> 00:29:00,722
It provides 400 million
dollars in payroll annually,
604
00:29:00,724 --> 00:29:03,767
and nearly half a billion
dollars in contracts.
605
00:29:03,768 --> 00:29:06,854
Thank you for the opportunity
to testify before you today.
606
00:29:06,855 --> 00:29:10,274
Any questions for the
congresswoman from Maryland?
607
00:29:10,275 --> 00:29:12,193
No.
608
00:29:12,194 --> 00:29:15,530
Those in favor of removing
the aberdeen proving ground
609
00:29:15,531 --> 00:29:17,532
from the list of closures?
610
00:29:17,534 --> 00:29:19,034
Aye.
611
00:29:19,035 --> 00:29:20,827
So noted and removed.
612
00:29:22,038 --> 00:29:24,081
Okay, we'll next consider
613
00:29:24,082 --> 00:29:26,166
the Philadelphia naval shipyard.
614
00:29:26,167 --> 00:29:29,044
Would the congressman from
Pennsylvania's first district
615
00:29:29,045 --> 00:29:31,171
like to offer testimony?
616
00:29:39,306 --> 00:29:41,474
I have no testimony to offer.
617
00:29:47,980 --> 00:29:50,483
Yeah, but the difference
that we're gonna make...
618
00:29:50,484 --> 00:29:53,027
Uh, Terry, let me call you right back.
619
00:29:53,028 --> 00:29:54,820
Terry Womack?
620
00:29:54,822 --> 00:29:56,698
Possibly.
621
00:29:56,699 --> 00:29:58,742
I've had three members of
the Black Caucus tell me
622
00:29:58,743 --> 00:30:00,953
they're backing my play
for the speakership.
623
00:30:00,954 --> 00:30:02,580
- Interesting.
- I have a sense
624
00:30:02,581 --> 00:30:04,957
you've been disseminating
some misinformation.
625
00:30:04,958 --> 00:30:07,376
No. I'm afraid it's you
who are misinformed, David.
626
00:30:07,377 --> 00:30:10,170
You don't have three members
backing you. You have ten.
627
00:30:10,171 --> 00:30:13,424
I made it very clear I
didn't want any part of this.
628
00:30:13,426 --> 00:30:14,968
Yes, you made it crystal clear.
629
00:30:14,969 --> 00:30:16,553
Then why are you telling people?
630
00:30:16,554 --> 00:30:18,846
Because they don't know
you made it crystal clear.
631
00:30:18,847 --> 00:30:20,265
I have to go to Bob with this.
632
00:30:20,266 --> 00:30:22,476
He'll think you organized a coup,
633
00:30:22,477 --> 00:30:26,271
got cold feet, and are
making me the scapegoat.
634
00:30:26,272 --> 00:30:28,523
David, if I pick up this phone right now
635
00:30:28,524 --> 00:30:30,525
and leak this story,
636
00:30:30,526 --> 00:30:32,735
Bob will have no choice but to drop you,
637
00:30:32,737 --> 00:30:36,282
even if he believes your version of events.
638
00:30:39,285 --> 00:30:41,370
You wanna take a seat?
639
00:30:44,748 --> 00:30:46,917
- Uh, Freddy?
- Yeah, Frank?
640
00:30:46,918 --> 00:30:50,004
You better make it a half order.
I got a big dinner tonight.
641
00:30:50,005 --> 00:30:51,547
Sure thing.
642
00:30:51,549 --> 00:30:53,467
Slaw?
643
00:30:53,468 --> 00:30:56,178
- Always.
- You got it.
644
00:30:59,889 --> 00:31:01,808
Here you go.
645
00:31:02,684 --> 00:31:04,102
- Oh...
- Ohh!
646
00:31:04,103 --> 00:31:05,646
So, what's the latest?
647
00:31:05,647 --> 00:31:07,314
Oh, you know, Frank. Same old shit.
648
00:31:07,315 --> 00:31:09,732
Almost got killed last weekend.
649
00:31:09,733 --> 00:31:11,485
- Here?
- No.
650
00:31:11,487 --> 00:31:13,196
State fair down in Virginia.
651
00:31:13,197 --> 00:31:15,865
Me and my brother hauling
this smoker down there,
652
00:31:15,866 --> 00:31:19,035
and this fucking minivan
had a fridge strapped on top.
653
00:31:19,036 --> 00:31:22,163
A fridge strapped on
top of a minivan, Frank.
654
00:31:22,164 --> 00:31:23,706
That's stupid.
655
00:31:23,707 --> 00:31:25,291
Well, that fridge slipped loose.
656
00:31:25,292 --> 00:31:27,293
Boom! Right in front of us.
657
00:31:27,294 --> 00:31:29,337
I had to swerve to the
left. Barely missed it.
658
00:31:29,339 --> 00:31:31,507
But now that smoker is fishtailing,
659
00:31:31,508 --> 00:31:33,551
almost hit a hatchback in the next lane.
660
00:31:33,552 --> 00:31:35,719
Swerved to the right.
Barely missed that too.
661
00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:37,638
- Jesus.
- Oh, man, it was real.
662
00:31:37,639 --> 00:31:39,931
But, you know, that's
why God gave us reflexes.
663
00:31:39,932 --> 00:31:43,143
So we can move the fuck
out of the way when a fridge
664
00:31:43,144 --> 00:31:45,229
come out of nowhere.
665
00:31:45,230 --> 00:31:48,065
- How them ribs?
- You know how they are.
666
00:31:48,067 --> 00:31:51,653
- You know I like to hear it.
- Perfection, Freddy.
667
00:31:51,654 --> 00:31:53,655
Perfection.
668
00:31:53,656 --> 00:31:56,282
- You go on ahead, Frank.
- Thank you, Freddy.
669
00:31:56,283 --> 00:31:57,701
Mm-hmm.
670
00:31:57,702 --> 00:31:59,411
Well, this is a surprise.
671
00:31:59,412 --> 00:32:01,746
- You usually text.
- Where are you?
672
00:32:01,747 --> 00:32:03,373
On the other side of the tracks
673
00:32:03,374 --> 00:32:05,375
trying to find the meaning of life.
674
00:32:05,376 --> 00:32:07,001
Did you find anything for me?
675
00:32:07,003 --> 00:32:08,671
You mean anything newsworthy?
676
00:32:08,672 --> 00:32:11,716
Uh, I actually didn't call to badger you.
677
00:32:11,717 --> 00:32:13,634
Yes, you did, but that's
part of your charm.
678
00:32:13,635 --> 00:32:15,177
No.
679
00:32:15,178 --> 00:32:19,223
I wanted to tell you
that I've been promoted
680
00:32:19,224 --> 00:32:21,392
to White House correspondent.
681
00:32:26,314 --> 00:32:29,359
I'll have to travel with the
press corps, be at briefings,
682
00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:32,237
but I can work around all that.
683
00:32:32,238 --> 00:32:34,573
If you need me. It won't change anything.
684
00:32:34,574 --> 00:32:36,241
Oh, on the contrary.
685
00:32:36,242 --> 00:32:37,784
This changes everything.
686
00:32:37,785 --> 00:32:39,327
No. I can be flexible.
687
00:32:39,328 --> 00:32:41,747
I'm not interested in
someone who's flexible,
688
00:32:41,748 --> 00:32:43,707
I'm interested in someone who's available.
689
00:32:43,708 --> 00:32:45,250
So you think I should turn it down?
690
00:32:45,252 --> 00:32:46,961
That's entirely up to you.
691
00:32:46,962 --> 00:32:49,505
Well, I mean, it's not official yet.
692
00:32:49,506 --> 00:32:51,633
- I could...
- Oh, look, I've got to go,
693
00:32:51,634 --> 00:32:54,843
but call me, you know, if you
find yourself available again.
694
00:33:00,182 --> 00:33:03,852
You see, Freddy believes that
if a fridge falls off a minivan,
695
00:33:03,854 --> 00:33:05,564
you better swerve out of its way.
696
00:33:05,565 --> 00:33:08,817
I believe it's the fridge's
job to swerve out of mine.
697
00:33:17,409 --> 00:33:19,411
Hey, Janine...
698
00:33:19,412 --> 00:33:22,498
Keep walking, Zoe. I really don't
want to talk to you right now.
699
00:33:22,500 --> 00:33:24,375
It's not like I asked him for it.
700
00:33:24,376 --> 00:33:26,461
- He just called me into his office, and...
- Oh, please.
701
00:33:26,462 --> 00:33:29,213
You've been gunning for my job
since the day you bounced in here
702
00:33:29,214 --> 00:33:30,674
with a lollipop in your mouth.
703
00:33:30,675 --> 00:33:31,924
Congratulations.
704
00:33:31,925 --> 00:33:34,010
I'll send you a bottle of champagne
705
00:33:34,011 --> 00:33:36,012
from the Middle West,
wherever the fuck that is.
706
00:33:36,013 --> 00:33:39,056
I'm gonna turn it down.
You don't have to leave.
707
00:33:39,057 --> 00:33:40,809
Are you trying to rub this in or something?
708
00:33:40,810 --> 00:33:43,269
Please believe me. You
should be in the White House.
709
00:33:43,271 --> 00:33:45,773
I don't want it. I never did.
710
00:33:47,149 --> 00:33:49,610
I was hoping we could go see Tom together.
711
00:33:49,611 --> 00:33:52,571
- I want him to know that we both...
- Get the fuck out of my face.
712
00:33:52,572 --> 00:33:54,906
I'm asking. For real. I don't want the job.
713
00:33:54,907 --> 00:33:57,660
Then you're an even bigger
idiot than I thought you were.
714
00:33:57,661 --> 00:33:59,370
Go. Before I get violent.
715
00:34:19,809 --> 00:34:21,853
Peter?
716
00:34:24,980 --> 00:34:27,941
- Hello?
- But the Bering Sea
717
00:34:27,942 --> 00:34:30,152
is a violent and unpredictable force.
718
00:34:30,153 --> 00:34:32,572
Hi. Uh, my name is Christina.
719
00:34:32,573 --> 00:34:34,782
- I work with your dad.
- He's not here.
720
00:34:34,783 --> 00:34:36,534
- Where'd he go?
- I don't know.
721
00:34:36,535 --> 00:34:38,411
He said he'd be back in a little while.
722
00:34:38,413 --> 00:34:40,831
Uh, when was that?
723
00:34:40,832 --> 00:34:44,626
When he dropped us home from school.
724
00:34:44,627 --> 00:34:46,795
He left his phone here.
725
00:34:48,922 --> 00:34:51,675
Are you dad's girlfriend?
726
00:34:51,676 --> 00:34:53,260
No. No. I, uh...
727
00:34:53,261 --> 00:34:54,845
I just... I... I work for your dad.
728
00:34:54,846 --> 00:34:57,055
Then why do you have the
keys to his apartment?
729
00:34:59,642 --> 00:35:01,936
Will you make us pop-tarts?
730
00:35:01,937 --> 00:35:05,231
An enormous 60-foot rogue
wave struck the Aleutian...
731
00:35:05,232 --> 00:35:07,316
It was just sublime, Claire.
732
00:35:07,317 --> 00:35:09,611
- Thank you.
- I don't think I'll eat for a week.
733
00:35:09,612 --> 00:35:12,154
Does that mean no room for dessert?
734
00:35:12,155 --> 00:35:14,323
I'd love to, but, uh, none for me.
735
00:35:14,324 --> 00:35:16,242
Why don't you and I head downstairs
736
00:35:16,244 --> 00:35:18,203
for a little Brandy and some cigars?
737
00:35:18,204 --> 00:35:21,415
- Cubans?
- You don't think I smoke anything legal, do you?
738
00:35:23,501 --> 00:35:25,544
- Dessert for you?
- No. No, thanks.
739
00:35:25,545 --> 00:35:27,421
But I will take a refill
of this Chardonnay, though.
740
00:35:27,422 --> 00:35:30,549
Of course. Oh, this is
almost out. I'll grab another.
741
00:35:46,023 --> 00:35:48,610
I hate how they just hit you like that
742
00:35:48,611 --> 00:35:50,737
with no warning.
743
00:35:50,738 --> 00:35:52,781
You get night sweats too?
744
00:35:54,659 --> 00:35:57,745
I, uh...
745
00:35:57,746 --> 00:36:00,623
This is very new to me.
746
00:36:00,624 --> 00:36:02,708
Does Frank know?
747
00:36:02,709 --> 00:36:06,462
I haven't... we haven't... no.
748
00:36:06,463 --> 00:36:09,256
I'm sorry. We don't
have to talk about this.
749
00:36:09,257 --> 00:36:13,135
No. It's fine. I'm just, uh...
750
00:36:13,137 --> 00:36:15,931
It's fine. I feel better now.
751
00:36:15,932 --> 00:36:18,099
- Could I have a little bit more?
- Sure.
752
00:36:18,100 --> 00:36:19,685
Just say when.
753
00:36:19,686 --> 00:36:22,896
Charles is driving tonight, so...
754
00:36:22,897 --> 00:36:25,357
And when.
755
00:36:26,191 --> 00:36:28,193
- Cheers.
- Cheers.
756
00:36:32,866 --> 00:36:35,451
So, you mentioned, when
you invited me, the C.W.I.
757
00:36:35,452 --> 00:36:38,746
You're having a gala
and launching some new...
758
00:36:38,747 --> 00:36:40,331
Yes, that's right.
759
00:36:40,332 --> 00:36:42,291
We just brought on this
brilliant young woman
760
00:36:42,292 --> 00:36:45,003
who's going to help us
expand our efforts overseas.
761
00:36:45,004 --> 00:36:47,046
- Claire, I will save you the trouble.
- So we'll...
762
00:36:47,047 --> 00:36:50,174
Charles and I would be
delighted to contribute.
763
00:36:50,176 --> 00:36:52,386
Well, that's very
generous of you, Felicity.
764
00:36:52,387 --> 00:36:55,389
Well, you were such a darling, getting
us tickets to the Jefferson Ball.
765
00:36:55,390 --> 00:36:58,141
- Oh, that was nothing.
- It wasn't nothing.
766
00:36:58,142 --> 00:36:59,810
It was...
767
00:36:59,811 --> 00:37:02,437
People in this town
don't go out of their way
768
00:37:02,438 --> 00:37:04,356
to be nice to each other.
769
00:37:04,357 --> 00:37:07,776
Fourteen years Charles and
I have been here, and...
770
00:37:07,777 --> 00:37:09,945
Anyway, um,
771
00:37:09,947 --> 00:37:12,615
I'm grateful to have a friend.
772
00:37:14,450 --> 00:37:16,786
How much do you need?
773
00:37:28,257 --> 00:37:30,259
Christina, what the
fuck are you doing here?
774
00:37:30,260 --> 00:37:32,553
Shh. They're sleeping.
775
00:37:39,643 --> 00:37:41,938
Peter.
776
00:38:31,281 --> 00:38:33,158
- Hey, dad.
- Hey, kiddo.
777
00:38:33,159 --> 00:38:35,160
Would you take your brother downstairs?
778
00:38:35,161 --> 00:38:38,080
- I'll be there in a second.
- Okay. Bye, dad.
779
00:38:38,081 --> 00:38:41,291
- Bye.
- Bye? Where they going?
780
00:38:41,292 --> 00:38:44,003
I'm taking them to their grandmother's.
781
00:38:44,005 --> 00:38:46,422
I was able to get a hold of
Madeleine, and I told her...
782
00:38:46,423 --> 00:38:48,424
Oh, fuck. You didn't tell her?
783
00:38:48,425 --> 00:38:52,137
No, I didn't. But I should have.
784
00:38:52,138 --> 00:38:54,305
I told her that you had to travel for work,
785
00:38:54,306 --> 00:38:56,975
which is the last time I ever lie for you.
786
00:38:59,019 --> 00:39:00,227
Look...
787
00:39:00,228 --> 00:39:02,522
what happened, Peter?
788
00:39:02,524 --> 00:39:05,442
I'm... I'm sorry about the Brack hearing.
789
00:39:05,443 --> 00:39:07,653
- I was...
- Fuck the Brack hearing.
790
00:39:07,654 --> 00:39:09,822
What about your kids?
791
00:39:11,740 --> 00:39:13,826
After I drop them off, I'm done.
792
00:39:13,827 --> 00:39:16,495
I am no longer your girlfriend.
I no longer work for you.
793
00:39:16,496 --> 00:39:18,288
No... hey, Christina...
794
00:39:18,289 --> 00:39:21,208
I don't want to hear it, Peter.
There's no excuse this time.
795
00:39:28,300 --> 00:39:31,344
- I don't have much time, Frank.
- I'll make it short.
796
00:39:31,345 --> 00:39:33,388
- The President?
- No. The speakership.
797
00:39:33,389 --> 00:39:35,015
David's making a play.
798
00:39:35,016 --> 00:39:37,433
- What?
- He came to me for support.
799
00:39:37,434 --> 00:39:39,435
My first thought was
to tell you right away,
800
00:39:39,436 --> 00:39:41,730
but then my second thought
was to ignore my first thought,
801
00:39:41,732 --> 00:39:44,108
because we have the votes, Bob.
802
00:39:44,109 --> 00:39:46,485
If there had been a party
revolt, I would've known about it.
803
00:39:46,486 --> 00:39:49,030
We don't need the whole
party to revolt. We need 13...
804
00:39:49,031 --> 00:39:52,075
13 Democrats, plus the
other side of the aisle.
805
00:39:52,076 --> 00:39:53,617
Are you out of your mind?
806
00:39:53,618 --> 00:39:55,578
People have been asking
me that a lot lately.
807
00:39:55,579 --> 00:39:57,205
I'm inclined to start saying yes.
808
00:39:57,206 --> 00:39:59,415
Who are they... the 13?
809
00:39:59,417 --> 00:40:01,459
David and I are two, Terry Womack,
810
00:40:01,460 --> 00:40:04,046
and ten members of the
black caucus make another 11.
811
00:40:04,047 --> 00:40:05,797
Is the President behind this?
812
00:40:05,798 --> 00:40:07,216
No. He doesn't have a clue.
813
00:40:07,217 --> 00:40:10,052
This was David's plan executed by me.
814
00:40:10,053 --> 00:40:12,054
But there is an out for you, Bob.
815
00:40:12,055 --> 00:40:14,431
I can sway Womack either way
816
00:40:14,432 --> 00:40:18,351
as long as you make him
the next majority leader.
817
00:40:18,353 --> 00:40:20,354
And...
818
00:40:20,355 --> 00:40:22,815
- The education bill.
- Now we're on the same page.
819
00:40:22,816 --> 00:40:24,984
I can't do that. You know I can't.
820
00:40:24,985 --> 00:40:28,071
You're the speaker, Bob. You
can do anything you'd like.
821
00:40:28,072 --> 00:40:33,367
And I have to say, appointing the first
African-American majority leader...
822
00:40:33,368 --> 00:40:36,537
why, that isn't a bad legacy to have.
823
00:40:37,706 --> 00:40:40,084
I'm sorry. I changed my mind.
824
00:40:40,085 --> 00:40:41,752
I thought about it, and...
825
00:40:41,753 --> 00:40:44,421
Thinking about it was what
those two days were for.
826
00:40:44,422 --> 00:40:46,966
And then I thought about it
some more, and I realized I...
827
00:40:46,967 --> 00:40:49,426
Jesus Christ, you're fucking unbelievable.
828
00:40:49,427 --> 00:40:53,097
Look, Tom, I appreciate the fact
that you took a chance on me, but...
829
00:40:53,098 --> 00:40:54,431
No, I don't think you do.
830
00:40:54,432 --> 00:40:56,976
I don't think you appreciate anything.
831
00:40:56,978 --> 00:40:59,729
I think you're an ungrateful,
self-entitled little c...
832
00:40:59,730 --> 00:41:01,689
Little what?
833
00:41:01,690 --> 00:41:04,609
Little what, Tom? Say it.
834
00:41:04,610 --> 00:41:07,695
Cunt. You're a cunt.
835
00:41:12,659 --> 00:41:14,327
What are you doing?
836
00:41:14,328 --> 00:41:16,037
Don't you dare...
837
00:41:16,039 --> 00:41:18,415
you don't even know what I'm typing.
838
00:41:18,416 --> 00:41:20,459
- Get out, Zoe.
- Just a second. I'm almost done.
839
00:41:20,460 --> 00:41:23,378
Get out. You're fired.
840
00:41:23,379 --> 00:41:26,299
Whatever you have to tell yourself, Tom.
841
00:41:26,300 --> 00:41:27,466
Get out!
842
00:41:29,010 --> 00:41:31,053
So should I press "send"?
843
00:41:31,054 --> 00:41:33,222
I think I should.
844
00:41:36,477 --> 00:41:38,436
Call me whatever you want,
845
00:41:38,437 --> 00:41:40,522
but you should remember, these days,
846
00:41:40,523 --> 00:41:43,859
when you're talking to one person,
you're talking to a thousand.
847
00:41:59,709 --> 00:42:02,545
Well, you'll say you
wanted to spend more time
848
00:42:02,546 --> 00:42:04,339
focusing on your home district.
849
00:42:04,340 --> 00:42:07,258
You'll say Womack is the
right man to fill your shoes.
850
00:42:07,259 --> 00:42:10,386
You won't make waves.
You won't do interviews.
851
00:42:10,387 --> 00:42:12,930
You'll suck it up and be a team player.
852
00:42:13,807 --> 00:42:15,392
This was Frank's idea.
853
00:42:15,393 --> 00:42:17,644
I told you he was gonna
try to blame me on it.
854
00:42:17,645 --> 00:42:19,271
Ask around. Talk to Womack.
855
00:42:19,272 --> 00:42:20,856
I did. He said you came to him.
856
00:42:20,857 --> 00:42:23,775
He's fucking lying, Bob! I would never...
857
00:42:23,776 --> 00:42:25,236
shut up, David.
858
00:42:25,237 --> 00:42:28,322
Do you understand how you're to behave
859
00:42:28,323 --> 00:42:29,948
when we make the announcement?
860
00:42:29,949 --> 00:42:31,742
And if I don't play along?
861
00:42:31,744 --> 00:42:34,829
Then the D-triple-C will
pour everything it's got
862
00:42:34,830 --> 00:42:37,874
into your primary opponent's
campaign next cycle.
863
00:42:37,875 --> 00:42:39,876
We'll cleave you from the herd
864
00:42:39,877 --> 00:42:42,587
and watch you die in the wilderness.
865
00:42:44,256 --> 00:42:46,841
Tell us now, David.
866
00:42:53,766 --> 00:42:56,685
If you think it's best, Robert.
867
00:42:56,686 --> 00:42:59,521
And just think, he could have been a wolf.
868
00:43:32,599 --> 00:43:34,683
You made yourself available.
869
00:43:34,684 --> 00:43:36,894
I quit.
870
00:43:36,895 --> 00:43:38,771
Fuck that place.
871
00:43:38,772 --> 00:43:41,607
It was a prison. I'm free now.
872
00:43:41,608 --> 00:43:43,359
Congratulations.
873
00:43:43,360 --> 00:43:44,819
Where are you?
874
00:43:44,820 --> 00:43:46,862
- In a car.
- So am I.
875
00:43:46,864 --> 00:43:48,365
Where you headed?
876
00:43:48,366 --> 00:43:51,327
- Home.
- So am I.
877
00:43:51,328 --> 00:43:53,120
To your home or mine?
878
00:43:53,121 --> 00:43:54,621
Is that an invitation?
879
00:43:54,622 --> 00:43:56,957
It's whatever you want it to be.
880
00:43:56,958 --> 00:43:59,542
- You sound tipsy.
- I am.
881
00:43:59,543 --> 00:44:02,838
I just spent the last two hours
drinking Long Island Iced Teas.
882
00:44:04,841 --> 00:44:06,968
What's your address?
883
00:45:12,995 --> 00:45:15,164
Do your parents know you live like this?
884
00:45:16,082 --> 00:45:19,001
No. They haven't visited.
885
00:45:19,919 --> 00:45:21,795
Are you cared for?
886
00:45:21,797 --> 00:45:23,631
How do you mean?
887
00:45:23,632 --> 00:45:27,386
Do you have a man who cares for you?
888
00:45:27,387 --> 00:45:30,138
- An older man.
- No.
889
00:45:31,348 --> 00:45:33,934
But you've been with older men before?
890
00:45:34,893 --> 00:45:35,936
Yes.
891
00:45:35,937 --> 00:45:38,355
Then you know they hurt you,
892
00:45:38,356 --> 00:45:40,690
