1
00:00:08,757 --> 00:00:10,326
_

2
00:00:11,347 --> 00:00:12,457
_

3
00:00:12,584 --> 00:00:15,028
_

4
00:00:20,497 --> 00:00:24,722
_

5
00:00:29,364 --> 00:00:31,123
_

6
00:00:36,941 --> 00:00:38,285
_

7
00:00:38,369 --> 00:00:39,601
_

8
00:01:08,013 --> 00:01:09,525
Tight schedule today, ma'am.

9
00:01:09,526 --> 00:01:11,294
Nearly all focused on the aftermath

10
00:01:11,295 --> 00:01:13,563
of the deal we brokered
in Afghanistan.

11
00:01:13,564 --> 00:01:16,599
First up is the National
Security Council.

12
00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:18,368
To discuss details on
the troop withdrawal

13
00:01:18,369 --> 00:01:20,536
followed by a roundtable for USAID

14
00:01:20,537 --> 00:01:22,271
on support for the new
unity government.

15
00:01:22,272 --> 00:01:25,640
I've been working on a joint
statement with UNICEF. It's...

16
00:01:28,212 --> 00:01:30,248
Is that President Salnikov?

17
00:01:30,249 --> 00:01:31,170
Yes, ma'am.

18
00:01:31,171 --> 00:01:32,604
Doing his annual call-in show.

19
00:01:32,605 --> 00:01:33,972
Oh, this is the thing

20
00:01:33,973 --> 00:01:37,141
where he talks to ordinary
Russians. I love this.

21
00:01:37,142 --> 00:01:39,110
Taking canned questions

22
00:01:39,111 --> 00:01:41,012
and creating your own
personality cult.

23
00:01:41,013 --> 00:01:42,680
It has a certain perverse charm.

24
00:01:42,681 --> 00:01:44,215
I love how weird it is.

25
00:01:44,216 --> 00:01:46,284
It's like The View
meets Joseph Stalin.

26
00:01:46,285 --> 00:01:47,952
Well, this is his first
public appearance

27
00:01:47,953 --> 00:01:50,355
since the peace deal we
brokered in Afghanistan.

28
00:01:50,356 --> 00:01:52,557
Any word on Russia's reaction to that?

29
00:01:52,558 --> 00:01:54,559
No, not through official channels,

30
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:56,261
but they can't be happy.

31
00:01:56,262 --> 00:01:58,596
Less conflict in the region

32
00:01:58,597 --> 00:02:00,298
means their influence is waning.

33
00:02:00,299 --> 00:02:04,536
Next we have Sergei Khulakov,
an accountant from Kazan.

34
00:02:06,438 --> 00:02:08,506
Tensions with the United
States are at a high point.

35
00:02:08,507 --> 00:02:09,874
Here we go.

36
00:02:09,875 --> 00:02:11,309
Can you turn it up?

37
00:02:11,310 --> 00:02:13,011
Do you see a path toward
a better relationship?

38
00:02:15,114 --> 00:02:18,616
I love many things about America.

39
00:02:18,617 --> 00:02:21,286
Beyoncé, for instance.

40
00:02:21,287 --> 00:02:24,013
But the treachery of the
American government

41
00:02:24,014 --> 00:02:26,490
has reached new levels
under President Dalton

42
00:02:26,491 --> 00:02:28,191
and Secretary McCord.

43
00:02:30,228 --> 00:02:32,885
This so-called peace
deal in Afghanistan

44
00:02:32,886 --> 00:02:34,887
is only the latest aggression

45
00:02:34,888 --> 00:02:36,956
from a bankrupt imperial culture.

46
00:02:36,957 --> 00:02:40,159
Normal relations are impossible.

47
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:43,095
That's why I've instructed
the Minister of Education

48
00:02:43,096 --> 00:02:46,098
to immediately terminate all adoptions

49
00:02:46,099 --> 00:02:48,500
of Russian citizens
by American parents.

50
00:02:48,501 --> 00:02:50,703
We cannot allow our precious children

51
00:02:50,704 --> 00:02:52,705
to become part of this
poisonous culture.

52
00:02:52,706 --> 00:02:54,139
What?

53
00:02:54,140 --> 00:02:55,341
Wh... orphans?

54
00:02:55,342 --> 00:02:56,375
Are you serious?

55
00:02:56,376 --> 00:02:57,643
Of all the ways he could retaliate,

56
00:02:57,644 --> 00:02:59,011
he's attacking innocent kids.

57
00:02:59,012 --> 00:03:00,312
Not just kids, orphans.

58
00:03:00,313 --> 00:03:01,747
Orphaned kids.

59
00:03:01,748 --> 00:03:02,948
- Get me the White House now.
- Yeah.

60
00:03:02,949 --> 00:03:03,983
How many kids

61
00:03:03,984 --> 00:03:05,250
are we talking about?

62
00:03:05,251 --> 00:03:06,752
At least 300.

63
00:03:06,753 --> 00:03:09,154
Russian orphanages haven't evolved

64
00:03:09,155 --> 00:03:10,889
since the days of the czar.

65
00:03:10,890 --> 00:03:12,358
And their treatment of kids

66
00:03:12,359 --> 00:03:14,693
with disabilities borders on criminal.

67
00:03:14,694 --> 00:03:18,831
And, often, American parents
are their last resort.

68
00:03:18,832 --> 00:03:20,899
Whoa, whoa. Where's the fire?

69
00:03:20,900 --> 00:03:23,201
Mom. Hey, sorry. I'm late
for lunch with a friend.

70
00:03:24,637 --> 00:03:27,139
How is she busier than I am?

71
00:03:27,140 --> 00:03:29,475
If it were up to me,
they wouldn't get lunch.

72
00:03:29,476 --> 00:03:30,976
Oh, hey, heads-up.

73
00:03:30,977 --> 00:03:33,912
The, uh, vice president
is crashing our meeting.

74
00:03:33,913 --> 00:03:35,781
Any particular reason?

75
00:03:35,782 --> 00:03:38,350
Well, maybe because she
has a strong record

76
00:03:38,351 --> 00:03:40,886
of advocating for the
rights of adoptive parents.

77
00:03:40,887 --> 00:03:43,322
Or maybe she's just tired
of cutting ribbons.

78
00:03:43,323 --> 00:03:45,190
Who knows?

79
00:03:45,191 --> 00:03:46,759
I did.

80
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:48,060
Madam Vice President.

81
00:03:48,061 --> 00:03:49,461
Elizabeth.

82
00:03:49,462 --> 00:03:51,764
I'm sorry I couldn't
make your holiday party.

83
00:03:51,765 --> 00:03:53,132
Oh, it's all right.

84
00:03:53,133 --> 00:03:55,901
I heard you had a taco truck.

85
00:03:55,902 --> 00:03:58,404
Yes, Mr. President.

86
00:03:58,405 --> 00:04:01,305
He's ready for you.

87
00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:08,981
Teresa, Bess.

88
00:04:10,583 --> 00:04:13,419
Have a look at this.

89
00:04:13,420 --> 00:04:15,654
Very good.

90
00:04:15,655 --> 00:04:17,623
That's terrific. It's wonderful.

91
00:04:17,624 --> 00:04:19,490
Open the envelope, sweetie.

92
00:04:21,393 --> 00:04:23,662
What is that?

93
00:04:25,598 --> 00:04:27,332
Can you say it in English?

94
00:04:27,333 --> 00:04:28,801
"Hos."

95
00:04:28,802 --> 00:04:30,035
Hus.

96
00:04:30,036 --> 00:04:31,236
House. House, very good.

97
00:04:31,237 --> 00:04:33,505
- House.
- House, yes.

98
00:04:33,506 --> 00:04:35,174
This is your cat.

99
00:04:35,175 --> 00:04:36,408
Her name is Sushi.

100
00:04:42,681 --> 00:04:44,416
Yes.

101
00:04:44,417 --> 00:04:46,785
That's the Gunderson family.

102
00:04:46,786 --> 00:04:49,488
Their adoption was
approved last month.

103
00:04:49,489 --> 00:04:52,157
They were on the last day
of their waiting period

104
00:04:52,158 --> 00:04:54,526
when the ban was announced.

105
00:04:54,527 --> 00:04:56,328
The kid was literally

106
00:04:56,329 --> 00:04:58,564
boarding his plane when
the FSB yanked him off.

107
00:04:58,565 --> 00:05:00,065
Well, this family

108
00:05:00,066 --> 00:05:02,101
is just the tip of the iceberg.

109
00:05:02,102 --> 00:05:04,937
There are hundreds of American
families being torn apart.

110
00:05:04,938 --> 00:05:07,539
Then we should treat Salnikov's
behavior like the tantrum it is.

111
00:05:07,540 --> 00:05:10,175
Agreed. Obviously,
we can condemn this.

112
00:05:10,176 --> 00:05:11,643
The question is, what next?

113
00:05:11,644 --> 00:05:13,078
We retaliate.

114
00:05:13,079 --> 00:05:16,148
Russia has repeatedly attacked us.

115
00:05:16,149 --> 00:05:19,351
Supporting the Taliban, and recruiting

116
00:05:19,352 --> 00:05:21,153
and coercing the Senate
majority leader,

117
00:05:21,154 --> 00:05:22,454
hacking our embassies.

118
00:05:22,455 --> 00:05:24,289
Now this?

119
00:05:24,290 --> 00:05:25,557
You want sanctions.

120
00:05:25,558 --> 00:05:27,926
My team is working on
proposals as we speak.

121
00:05:27,927 --> 00:05:29,294
Will we have support in the Senate?

122
00:05:29,295 --> 00:05:32,364
Absolutely. I'll reach out
to my former colleagues,

123
00:05:32,365 --> 00:05:33,732
lay the groundwork for a floor vote.

124
00:05:33,733 --> 00:05:36,157
Just make sure your office
coordinates with Bess at State.

125
00:05:36,158 --> 00:05:39,637
Yes, Mr. President.

126
00:05:42,941 --> 00:05:44,376
Teresa.

127
00:05:44,377 --> 00:05:46,812
I'm glad you're aboard.

128
00:05:46,813 --> 00:05:49,814
Now let's bring those kids home.

129
00:06:01,860 --> 00:06:04,696
I love that this has somehow,
like, become our place.

130
00:06:04,697 --> 00:06:07,099
It's not exactly Paris, is it?

131
00:06:08,802 --> 00:06:11,136
"We'll always have the Potomac Lodge."

132
00:06:13,540 --> 00:06:17,808
Doesn't quite have
the same ring to it.

133
00:06:22,048 --> 00:06:24,683
I have to go.

134
00:06:24,684 --> 00:06:28,620
I have to go.

135
00:06:28,621 --> 00:06:31,455
I can't be late.

136
00:06:48,340 --> 00:06:50,875
What if we went away somewhere?

137
00:06:52,144 --> 00:06:54,079
For a weekend.

138
00:06:58,951 --> 00:07:01,119
I'm serious.

139
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:02,987
I don't know.

140
00:07:06,792 --> 00:07:09,828
I found a cabin in the
Blue Ridge Mountains.

141
00:07:11,397 --> 00:07:15,033
We could... build a fire,

142
00:07:15,034 --> 00:07:16,802
and maybe...

143
00:07:18,171 --> 00:07:20,072
...build a snowman.

144
00:07:20,073 --> 00:07:22,841
Put a...

145
00:07:22,842 --> 00:07:25,276
put a turnip on his nose.

146
00:07:33,018 --> 00:07:35,053
I usually use a carrot.

147
00:07:35,054 --> 00:07:37,288
It's more nose-shaped.

148
00:07:39,091 --> 00:07:42,376
_

149
00:08:38,817 --> 00:08:41,253
We have a range of options

150
00:08:41,254 --> 00:08:43,021
to retaliate for the
Russian adoption ban.

151
00:08:43,022 --> 00:08:44,856
Go ahead.

152
00:08:44,857 --> 00:08:47,893
Uh, in the short-term we
can revoke travel visas

153
00:08:47,894 --> 00:08:49,661
for Salnikov's inner circle.

154
00:08:49,662 --> 00:08:51,630
Treasury will freeze
their bank accounts

155
00:08:51,631 --> 00:08:53,231
and block their real estate deals.

156
00:08:53,232 --> 00:08:56,168
And if Salnikov still won't back down?

157
00:08:56,169 --> 00:08:57,936
We sanction their chief exports,

158
00:08:57,937 --> 00:08:59,604
timber, aluminum, gas.
Cut off their access

159
00:08:59,605 --> 00:09:00,906
to the global market.

160
00:09:00,907 --> 00:09:02,274
Write it up.

161
00:09:02,275 --> 00:09:03,575
I want to get something to POTUS

162
00:09:03,576 --> 00:09:05,610
within the hour... what is happening?

163
00:09:05,611 --> 00:09:07,346
Madam Secretary.

164
00:09:07,347 --> 00:09:09,214
We have a slight
situation on our hands.

165
00:09:11,217 --> 00:09:12,617
This is from an interview

166
00:09:12,618 --> 00:09:13,919
the vice president
gave ten minutes ago.

167
00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:15,120
...legislative agenda.

168
00:09:15,121 --> 00:09:16,254
Madam Vice President.

169
00:09:16,255 --> 00:09:17,622
Yes?

170
00:09:17,623 --> 00:09:19,524
Any comment on the adoption ban?

171
00:09:19,525 --> 00:09:21,827
The White House will be putting
out a statement shortly.

172
00:09:21,828 --> 00:09:23,695
- Madam Vice President.
- Yes, Sofia.

173
00:09:23,696 --> 00:09:25,864
What about the parents who'd
already met their children?

174
00:09:25,865 --> 00:09:27,566
Do you have a message for them?

175
00:09:27,567 --> 00:09:29,034
I do.

176
00:09:29,035 --> 00:09:31,370
I want them to know the
United States government

177
00:09:31,371 --> 00:09:33,405
will do whatever it takes
to bring them back.

178
00:09:33,406 --> 00:09:34,639
Whatever it takes.

179
00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:35,941
Are you open to dialogue?

180
00:09:35,942 --> 00:09:37,709
- What is she thinking?
- She's way out of bounds.

181
00:09:37,710 --> 00:09:39,511
Is it me, or did the VP just commit us

182
00:09:39,512 --> 00:09:40,679
to negotiate over adoptees?

183
00:09:40,680 --> 00:09:41,747
It's worse.

184
00:09:41,748 --> 00:09:43,648
She just implied that we are going

185
00:09:43,649 --> 00:09:46,118
to make major concessions
to get them back.

186
00:09:46,119 --> 00:09:47,825
Can't we disavow her?

187
00:09:47,826 --> 00:09:49,388
And admit that the president
and the vice president

188
00:09:49,389 --> 00:09:50,355
aren't on the same page?

189
00:09:50,356 --> 00:09:51,356
Russell won't go for it.

190
00:09:51,357 --> 00:09:53,692
I-I'm gonna confer with POTUS.

191
00:09:53,693 --> 00:09:57,696
Meanwhile, let's...
stick a pin in sanctions

192
00:09:57,697 --> 00:10:00,198
and... start work

193
00:10:00,199 --> 00:10:02,833
on an inducement strategy.

194
00:10:08,907 --> 00:10:10,409
Teresa Hurst has been working

195
00:10:10,410 --> 00:10:11,810
with the press for decades.

196
00:10:11,811 --> 00:10:13,145
You really think a veteran politician

197
00:10:13,146 --> 00:10:14,413
makes a gaffe like that?

198
00:10:14,414 --> 00:10:15,614
It happens every day,

199
00:10:15,615 --> 00:10:17,883
but feel free to ask
one of your contacts.

200
00:10:17,884 --> 00:10:20,719
Well, actually, I was thinking
we could ask one of yours.

201
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:22,487
Sofia Martinez.

202
00:10:22,488 --> 00:10:24,689
She's the reporter who
asked the question.

203
00:10:24,690 --> 00:10:26,358
We do have a history...

204
00:10:26,359 --> 00:10:28,527
...of contact.

205
00:10:28,528 --> 00:10:31,063
Yeah, and how long has she
been back from Buenos Aires?

206
00:10:31,064 --> 00:10:32,964
A few months, I guess.

207
00:10:32,965 --> 00:10:34,733
I... I'll see what she knows.

208
00:10:34,734 --> 00:10:36,668
Thanks. My advice?

209
00:10:36,669 --> 00:10:39,071
Bring flowers.

210
00:10:39,072 --> 00:10:40,938
Hola.

211
00:10:43,508 --> 00:10:45,956
_

212
00:10:45,957 --> 00:10:46,877
_

213
00:10:49,582 --> 00:10:51,283
Oh, I'm allergic.

214
00:10:51,284 --> 00:10:52,851
I know I told you.

215
00:10:52,852 --> 00:10:56,687
I was probably lost in your eyes.

216
00:10:58,723 --> 00:11:01,626
Are you... free for dinner tonight?

217
00:11:01,627 --> 00:11:05,530
Against my better judgment, yes.

218
00:11:05,531 --> 00:11:06,798
Okay.

219
00:11:06,799 --> 00:11:09,101
Where are we going?

220
00:11:09,102 --> 00:11:11,303
Anywhere you like.

221
00:11:11,304 --> 00:11:12,737
But, uh...

222
00:11:12,738 --> 00:11:14,272
Hey. It's yours.

223
00:11:14,273 --> 00:11:17,008
I have a couple questions first.

224
00:11:17,009 --> 00:11:19,177
Come on.

225
00:11:19,178 --> 00:11:20,268
I'm joined now

226
00:11:20,269 --> 00:11:22,461
by Rhonda and Peter Gunderson,

227
00:11:22,462 --> 00:11:25,064
two parents directly
affected by this ban.

228
00:11:25,065 --> 00:11:27,833
Please, tell us about your son.

229
00:11:27,834 --> 00:11:29,468
Nikolai was born

230
00:11:29,469 --> 00:11:31,437
with Leber congenital amaurosis,

231
00:11:31,438 --> 00:11:32,771
a genetic defect

232
00:11:32,772 --> 00:11:36,308
that causes retinal degeneration
and eventual blindness.

233
00:11:36,309 --> 00:11:38,410
There's an experimental gene therapy

234
00:11:38,411 --> 00:11:40,145
that could cure him,
but it's only available

235
00:11:40,146 --> 00:11:42,915
in the United States, so the fact

236
00:11:42,916 --> 00:11:44,416
that we can't take care of him...

237
00:11:44,417 --> 00:11:47,152
It... it breaks our hearts.

238
00:11:47,153 --> 00:11:48,621
Were you encouraged

239
00:11:48,622 --> 00:11:50,646
- by the vice president's remarks today?
- We were.

240
00:11:50,647 --> 00:11:52,958
It's nice to hear common sense
coming out of a politician.

241
00:11:52,959 --> 00:11:55,063
Her office has been in touch

242
00:11:55,064 --> 00:11:57,085
with us throughout the process.

243
00:11:57,403 --> 00:11:59,222
- I'll bet they have.
- Hello?

244
00:11:59,223 --> 00:12:01,133
Can't Conrad tell her
to stay in her lane?

245
00:12:01,134 --> 00:12:03,535
He thought it would be
better to close ranks.

246
00:12:03,536 --> 00:12:05,037
We'll see how Russia reacts.

247
00:12:05,038 --> 00:12:06,705
- Mom?
- Yeah.

248
00:12:06,706 --> 00:12:08,073
Jay is here to see you.

249
00:12:08,074 --> 00:12:11,176
Thank you.

250
00:12:11,177 --> 00:12:13,746
Shouldn't you be passed out

251
00:12:13,747 --> 00:12:15,087
with a kid's book over
your face right now?

252
00:12:15,088 --> 00:12:17,082
Sorry for the intrusion, ma'am.
But this is sensitive.

253
00:12:17,083 --> 00:12:20,085
I just spoke to Sofia Martinez,

254
00:12:20,086 --> 00:12:21,453
that reporter at the Chronicle.

255
00:12:21,454 --> 00:12:23,989
I've had... contact
with her in the past.

256
00:12:23,990 --> 00:12:25,925
Oh, I remember.

257
00:12:25,926 --> 00:12:28,360
Anyway, Teresa Hurst

258
00:12:28,361 --> 00:12:29,995
is trying to raise her profile

259
00:12:29,996 --> 00:12:31,297
for a presidential campaign.

260
00:12:31,298 --> 00:12:33,132
Sofia got a tip from
her chief of staff

261
00:12:33,133 --> 00:12:35,367
that it would be worth her
while to ask that question

262
00:12:35,368 --> 00:12:36,602
about the adoptees.

263
00:12:36,603 --> 00:12:38,270
The whole thing was staged?

264
00:12:38,271 --> 00:12:39,571
Including the follow-up.

265
00:12:39,572 --> 00:12:41,640
They fed her the exact wording.

266
00:12:41,641 --> 00:12:43,809
The VP is playing us.

267
00:12:43,810 --> 00:12:45,844
And going rogue on foreign policy.

268
00:12:45,845 --> 00:12:48,047
Why?

269
00:12:48,048 --> 00:12:50,115
Because she sees you as a rival.

270
00:12:50,116 --> 00:12:54,052
And... ma'am, she's
trying to take you out.

271
00:12:57,389 --> 00:13:04,670
Subtitle sync and corrections by
awaqeded for www.addic7ed.com.

272
00:13:08,722 --> 00:13:11,324
- Could you go get Marcus for me, please?
- Mm-hmm.

273
00:13:11,325 --> 00:13:12,914
Madam Secretary, if you'll
just wait a minute...

274
00:13:12,915 --> 00:13:15,962
- We need to talk.
- Sounds good. All right.

275
00:13:15,963 --> 00:13:17,964
I'll have my office
contact you. Thank you.

276
00:13:17,965 --> 00:13:20,300
Do you have an appointment?

277
00:13:20,301 --> 00:13:23,436
I know you staged that Q and A

278
00:13:23,437 --> 00:13:25,827
- on the Hill.
- Those families are suffering.

279
00:13:25,828 --> 00:13:27,428
Someone needed to have their back.

280
00:13:27,429 --> 00:13:30,531
You subverted policy to
serve a personal agenda.

281
00:13:30,532 --> 00:13:32,033
I did you a favor.

282
00:13:32,034 --> 00:13:33,701
We're already on edge with Russia.

283
00:13:33,702 --> 00:13:35,236
Sanctions will only make it worse.

284
00:13:35,237 --> 00:13:36,871
Teresa, if you disagree,

285
00:13:36,872 --> 00:13:39,140
debate us.

286
00:13:39,141 --> 00:13:42,844
But you cannot contradict the
president behind his back.

287
00:13:42,845 --> 00:13:45,379
And you have no right to
lecture me on loyalty

288
00:13:45,380 --> 00:13:47,248
after the stunt you pulled

289
00:13:47,249 --> 00:13:50,084
over the holidays.

290
00:13:50,085 --> 00:13:52,319
This is about my party?

291
00:13:53,486 --> 00:13:57,212
I have zero interest in
running for president.

292
00:13:57,213 --> 00:13:58,780
Really?

293
00:13:58,781 --> 00:14:00,615
Your actions say otherwise.

294
00:14:00,616 --> 00:14:02,984
I only hosted that thing

295
00:14:02,985 --> 00:14:05,253
to whip votes for the
land mine treaty.

296
00:14:05,254 --> 00:14:06,822
Well, that's not what
Jacob Barker thinks.

297
00:14:06,823 --> 00:14:08,990
Or half a dozen other key bundlers

298
00:14:08,991 --> 00:14:11,626
who will not return my calls.

299
00:14:11,627 --> 00:14:12,861
When I signed on as VP,

300
00:14:12,862 --> 00:14:14,363
when I abandoned the party

301
00:14:14,364 --> 00:14:16,131
I spent a lifetime working for,

302
00:14:16,132 --> 00:14:17,733
I was made certain promises...

303
00:14:17,734 --> 00:14:20,202
promises that apparently mean nothing.

304
00:14:20,203 --> 00:14:22,270
What promises?

305
00:14:22,271 --> 00:14:24,706
Oh, come on. Please.

306
00:14:24,707 --> 00:14:28,310
Russell Jackson pledged
Dalton's explicit support

307
00:14:28,311 --> 00:14:29,845
if I ever ran for president.

308
00:14:29,846 --> 00:14:32,446
I'm not responsible for that.

309
00:14:33,648 --> 00:14:36,318
But I am responsible

310
00:14:36,319 --> 00:14:38,854
for the foreign policy
of the United States,

311
00:14:38,855 --> 00:14:41,089
and you need to let me do my job.

312
00:14:41,090 --> 00:14:43,425
Let me tell you a story.

313
00:14:43,426 --> 00:14:45,794
I started out as a PTA mom

314
00:14:45,795 --> 00:14:49,331
who just wanted the school to
remove asbestos from the gym.

315
00:14:49,332 --> 00:14:52,234
I've won a lot of tough
elections since,

316
00:14:52,235 --> 00:14:54,403
mostly against smug, entitled men

317
00:14:54,404 --> 00:14:56,104
who I had to work twice as hard as.

318
00:14:56,105 --> 00:14:57,706
But that was all right. I expected it.

319
00:14:57,707 --> 00:15:00,208
But you know what I
really couldn't stand?

320
00:15:00,209 --> 00:15:03,478
There was always this
one influential woman

321
00:15:03,479 --> 00:15:06,615
who just wasn't sure about me.

322
00:15:06,616 --> 00:15:09,751
Of course, what she was
really struggling with

323
00:15:09,752 --> 00:15:12,052
was her own ambition.

324
00:15:14,423 --> 00:15:17,192
This little game that
you're playing, Elizabeth?

325
00:15:17,193 --> 00:15:20,395
I have played it a hundred times...

326
00:15:20,396 --> 00:15:22,397
and I've always won.

327
00:15:22,398 --> 00:15:25,633
So, if you'll excuse me...

328
00:15:35,677 --> 00:15:37,112
Okay, so, in response

329
00:15:37,113 --> 00:15:39,548
to the VP's novel approach
to the adoption issue,

330
00:15:39,549 --> 00:15:41,416
we've compiled some potential
inducements for Salnikov.

331
00:15:41,417 --> 00:15:42,851
The most promising idea

332
00:15:42,852 --> 00:15:45,554
might be in the area of public health.

333
00:15:45,555 --> 00:15:47,088
Russia is suffering

334
00:15:47,089 --> 00:15:49,758
from a severe HIV and hep C outbreak.

335
00:15:49,759 --> 00:15:51,226
The CDC could implement

336
00:15:51,227 --> 00:15:53,628
a clean needle exchange program
and smart data analysis

337
00:15:53,629 --> 00:15:55,263
- to help contain the outbreak.
- Good. Blake.

338
00:15:55,264 --> 00:15:56,565
Get Salnikov on SVTC.

339
00:15:56,566 --> 00:15:58,300
- See if he bites. Thank you.
- Yes, ma'am.

340
00:15:58,301 --> 00:15:59,568
May want to hold off on that.

341
00:15:59,569 --> 00:16:01,837
Kremlin just released this.

342
00:16:01,838 --> 00:16:03,071
I was profoundly touched

343
00:16:03,072 --> 00:16:05,711
by the vice president's commitment

344
00:16:05,712 --> 00:16:06,908
to these beautiful children.

345
00:16:06,909 --> 00:16:09,544
It gives me hope that we
can find common ground.

346
00:16:09,545 --> 00:16:11,012
Accordingly,

347
00:16:11,013 --> 00:16:13,882
I would like to formally invite

348
00:16:13,883 --> 00:16:16,451
Vice President Hurst to Moscow

349
00:16:16,452 --> 00:16:18,253
to resolve

350
00:16:18,254 --> 00:16:20,021
- this adoption issue.
- Sly bastard.

351
00:16:20,022 --> 00:16:21,056
He's milking this.

352
00:16:21,057 --> 00:16:23,325
Well, you can bet Teresa will, too.

353
00:16:23,326 --> 00:16:24,426
Your office.

354
00:16:24,427 --> 00:16:25,660
Please.

355
00:16:25,661 --> 00:16:27,863
Russell Jackson, ma'am.

356
00:16:27,864 --> 00:16:31,399
It might be time to pull the plug.

357
00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:34,469
Is that a question or a statement?

358
00:16:34,470 --> 00:16:36,538
This is all her fault.

359
00:16:36,539 --> 00:16:38,773
Now Salnikov can look

360
00:16:38,774 --> 00:16:40,041
like a gallant peacemaker,

361
00:16:40,042 --> 00:16:42,110
all for a crisis of his own making.

362
00:16:44,447 --> 00:16:46,880
No way his offer's sincere.

363
00:16:49,317 --> 00:16:50,685
That was a question.

364
00:16:50,686 --> 00:16:53,154
Yes, he's insincere.

365
00:16:53,155 --> 00:16:54,623
But it's also an opportunity.

366
00:16:54,624 --> 00:16:56,091
What, you think she should go?

367
00:16:56,092 --> 00:16:58,193
Is that really how we want

368
00:16:58,194 --> 00:17:00,395
to conduct diplomacy?
Throw a tantrum, get a cookie?

369
00:17:00,396 --> 00:17:01,630
I don't disagree.

370
00:17:01,631 --> 00:17:04,466
But if we have a chance to
reunite those families, yes.

371
00:17:04,467 --> 00:17:05,867
We have to take it.

372
00:17:08,337 --> 00:17:09,971
Fine.

373
00:17:09,972 --> 00:17:12,774
But I want you babysitting
her every step of the way.

374
00:17:12,775 --> 00:17:14,943
If we face-plant, that's on you.

375
00:17:14,944 --> 00:17:16,311
Did you tell Teresa Hurst

376
00:17:16,312 --> 00:17:17,846
that you would support her campaign

377
00:17:17,847 --> 00:17:19,381
if she ran for president?

378
00:17:19,382 --> 00:17:22,417
Teresa Hurst is a fine public servant.

379
00:17:22,418 --> 00:17:24,019
We just happen to like you better.

380
00:17:24,020 --> 00:17:25,554
Just answer the question, Russell.

381
00:17:25,555 --> 00:17:28,089
Hurst was the only person

382
00:17:28,090 --> 00:17:29,858
who could deliver us Pennsylvania.

383
00:17:29,859 --> 00:17:31,092
I'd have sold my own mother

384
00:17:31,093 --> 00:17:33,995
to get those electoral votes.

385
00:17:33,996 --> 00:17:35,763
Does Conrad know?

386
00:17:42,003 --> 00:17:44,906
I make promises

387
00:17:44,907 --> 00:17:48,243
so that he doesn't have to.

388
00:17:48,244 --> 00:17:50,879
We done here?

389
00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:53,214
Sorry to interrupt.
Ephraim Ware called.

390
00:17:53,215 --> 00:17:54,983
You're needed at
Liberty Crossing ASAP.

391
00:17:54,984 --> 00:17:56,320
Well, tell him I'll be right there.

392
00:17:56,321 --> 00:17:57,519
I meant the secretary.

393
00:17:57,520 --> 00:17:59,120
Did he say what it was about?

394
00:17:59,121 --> 00:18:00,354
Just that it's urgent.

395
00:18:05,026 --> 00:18:07,929
Okay, this Afghan deal. We
got to figure out a way

396
00:18:07,930 --> 00:18:09,998
to decrease our footprint in-country

397
00:18:09,999 --> 00:18:13,068
and be more creative and-and
flexible with our mission.

398
00:18:13,069 --> 00:18:14,603
Where's Alexander?

399
00:18:14,604 --> 00:18:16,338
We thought he was with you.

400
00:18:16,339 --> 00:18:18,139
Dr. McCord.

401
00:18:18,140 --> 00:18:20,775
Director Ware just called.
You're wanted at the ODNI.

402
00:18:20,776 --> 00:18:23,578
That's Igor Zhukov,

403
00:18:23,579 --> 00:18:26,648
a GRU agent and noted assassin.

404
00:18:26,649 --> 00:18:28,283
Facial recognition caught him

405
00:18:28,284 --> 00:18:31,052
at a tollbooth on I-95
near the Beltway.

406
00:18:31,053 --> 00:18:34,389
We have reason to believe his
target is Dmitri Petrov.

407
00:18:34,390 --> 00:18:36,524
Seems your instincts were right.

408
00:18:36,525 --> 00:18:37,959
Based on what?

409
00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:40,161
NSA intercepted a communiqué

410
00:18:40,162 --> 00:18:43,064
sharing his personnel file
with unknown Russian assets

411
00:18:43,065 --> 00:18:44,332
in the United States.

412
00:18:44,333 --> 00:18:45,700
Tell me you've secured Petrov.

413
00:18:45,701 --> 00:18:47,369
I had CIA Security

414
00:18:47,370 --> 00:18:49,671
place both Mr. Petrov and his sister

415
00:18:49,672 --> 00:18:52,207
in protective custody an hour ago.

416
00:18:52,208 --> 00:18:55,176
Well, I see how this is...

417
00:18:55,177 --> 00:18:56,444
relevant to Henry,

418
00:18:56,445 --> 00:18:58,245
but why am I at this meeting?

419
00:18:59,914 --> 00:19:02,250
This matter pertains to
your daughter, as well.

420
00:19:02,251 --> 00:19:05,754
It appears that Stephanie

421
00:19:05,755 --> 00:19:07,088
is in a romantic relationship

422
00:19:07,089 --> 00:19:09,024
with Mr. Petrov.

423
00:19:09,025 --> 00:19:10,725
- Oh, my God.
- What?

424
00:19:10,726 --> 00:19:12,227
Uh, I'm sorry you're only
learning of this now.

425
00:19:12,228 --> 00:19:14,087
The information was highly
compartmentalized...

426
00:19:14,088 --> 00:19:16,087
How did they even know each
other? How did they meet?

427
00:19:16,088 --> 00:19:18,116
- Henry? At the house?
- They met at the house once. Months ago.

428
00:19:18,117 --> 00:19:19,964
- Why would he... What is he thinking?
- Wait a second.

429
00:19:19,965 --> 00:19:22,303
If you know about this, then
there is a very good likelihood

430
00:19:22,304 --> 00:19:24,272
that the Russians
know about this, too.

431
00:19:24,273 --> 00:19:25,473
Stevie could end up
as collateral damage.

432
00:19:25,474 --> 00:19:26,508
That's right. Where is she?

433
00:19:26,509 --> 00:19:27,442
She's still at the White House?

434
00:19:27,443 --> 00:19:29,044
A Secret Service team

435
00:19:29,045 --> 00:19:30,545
is with her as we speak.

436
00:19:30,546 --> 00:19:33,314
But until Zhukov is captured,

437
00:19:33,315 --> 00:19:35,817
she'll have to stay on total lockdown

438
00:19:35,818 --> 00:19:38,153
at your home, in the White House...

439
00:19:38,154 --> 00:19:40,855
and nowhere in between.

440
00:20:05,691 --> 00:20:07,108
Did you reveal any information

441
00:20:07,109 --> 00:20:08,458
that could put my daughter in danger?

442
00:20:08,459 --> 00:20:11,844
That is, any more danger
than you already put her in?

443
00:20:11,845 --> 00:20:13,546
Look, I-I wanted...

444
00:20:13,547 --> 00:20:15,214
Just answer the question.

445
00:20:15,215 --> 00:20:16,682
What did you tell her?

446
00:20:16,683 --> 00:20:17,850
Nothing.

447
00:20:17,851 --> 00:20:19,919
No names. No operational details.

448
00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:21,554
I insisted "Alexander Mehranov."

449
00:20:21,555 --> 00:20:23,255
I worked at the War College.

450
00:20:23,256 --> 00:20:25,591
She had other suspicions,
but I never confirmed them.

451
00:20:25,592 --> 00:20:27,323
I maintained situational awareness.

452
00:20:27,324 --> 00:20:30,929
Except you kept going
back to the same hotel.

453
00:20:35,167 --> 00:20:37,036
She kept the relationship a secret.

454
00:20:37,037 --> 00:20:38,270
Was that your idea, too?

455
00:20:38,271 --> 00:20:40,673
I-I didn't want trouble.

456
00:20:40,674 --> 00:20:42,423
Yeah, and how's that
working out for you?

457
00:20:42,424 --> 00:20:44,276
She doesn't know anything, Henry.

458
00:20:44,277 --> 00:20:47,279
I guess we're just gonna

459
00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:50,182
have to trust your judgment.

460
00:20:50,183 --> 00:20:51,984
So...

461
00:20:51,985 --> 00:20:54,620
why her?

462
00:20:54,621 --> 00:20:58,657
We bumped into each other
a few times, and...

463
00:20:58,658 --> 00:21:02,061
we just... connected.

464
00:21:02,062 --> 00:21:06,799
Of all the women in Washington,
you chose my daughter...

465
00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:08,434
to connect with.

466
00:21:08,435 --> 00:21:10,536
Which you shouldn't even be doing,

467
00:21:10,537 --> 00:21:12,314
anyway, because you just got sober.

468
00:21:12,315 --> 00:21:14,113
- Remember how we got you sober?
- Well, remember

469
00:21:14,114 --> 00:21:15,975
what I went through to become
addicted in the first place?

470
00:21:15,976 --> 00:21:18,911
Yes, very well. And I think
this is revenge for that.

471
00:21:18,912 --> 00:21:20,880
It-it... it wasn't. Please.

472
00:21:23,216 --> 00:21:26,585
My-my whole life as a kid in Russia,

473
00:21:26,586 --> 00:21:29,522
and then... as a soldier, then a spy,

474
00:21:29,523 --> 00:21:32,558
there was always so much that
you weren't allowed to think,

475
00:21:32,559 --> 00:21:34,693
you know, to-to feel.

476
00:21:34,694 --> 00:21:36,662
Not if you wanted to survive.

477
00:21:36,663 --> 00:21:38,896
And so... so I-I didn't.

478
00:21:39,632 --> 00:21:43,002
And then I met Stevie,
and I thought...

479
00:21:43,003 --> 00:21:47,839
can't I feel what I feel just... once?

480
00:21:51,176 --> 00:21:55,214
And it was selfish of me, and...

481
00:21:55,215 --> 00:21:58,249
I apologize.

482
00:21:59,151 --> 00:22:00,953
And I'm sorry for what
you went through,

483
00:22:00,954 --> 00:22:03,956
and any part my wife and I
might have played in that.

484
00:22:03,957 --> 00:22:06,524
But this is the end of the line.

485
00:22:07,660 --> 00:22:11,362
You're suspended from Special
Activities Division.

486
00:22:16,502 --> 00:22:19,772
What do you mean I
can't see him again?

487
00:22:19,773 --> 00:22:21,807
We're consenting adults.

488
00:22:21,808 --> 00:22:23,242
It's not about that.

489
00:22:23,243 --> 00:22:25,177
He's a national security risk.

490
00:22:25,178 --> 00:22:27,246
Well, okay, well, how?

491
00:22:27,247 --> 00:22:28,981
I mean, specifically.

492
00:22:28,982 --> 00:22:31,450
I-I'm not saying I was shocked
to learn that Alexander

493
00:22:31,451 --> 00:22:32,425
works with you...

494
00:22:32,426 --> 00:22:34,898
For starters, Alexander
isn't even his real name.

495
00:22:35,654 --> 00:22:37,321
Okay.

496
00:22:38,958 --> 00:22:40,426
Wow.

497
00:22:42,529 --> 00:22:44,430
Well, what is it, then?

498
00:22:44,431 --> 00:22:45,464
It's classified.

499
00:22:45,465 --> 00:22:47,232
Well, I work at the White House, okay?

500
00:22:47,233 --> 00:22:48,434
I have pretty high

501
00:22:48,435 --> 00:22:50,269
- security clearance, too!,
- Not high enough, okay?

502
00:22:50,270 --> 00:22:53,105
Does that give you some
indication of how serious it is?

503
00:22:53,106 --> 00:22:55,873
It is dangerous for
you to be near him.

504
00:22:56,508 --> 00:22:58,643
Is he safe?

505
00:22:59,411 --> 00:23:01,480
Is he gonna be okay?

506
00:23:01,481 --> 00:23:03,148
We don't know yet.

507
00:23:05,852 --> 00:23:09,021
We want you to know that
this isn't your fault.

508
00:23:09,022 --> 00:23:12,091
- He put you in a situation, Stevie...
- Actually, he didn't.

509
00:23:12,092 --> 00:23:15,127
Okay, Mom? If anything, I pushed him.

510
00:23:15,128 --> 00:23:17,763
I totally did, Mom, okay?

511
00:23:17,764 --> 00:23:20,598
- He tried to warn me.
- He didn't try hard enough.

512
00:23:22,668 --> 00:23:24,637
Yeah?

513
00:23:24,638 --> 00:23:26,005
Okay.

514
00:23:26,006 --> 00:23:27,740
I'm so sorry.

515
00:23:27,741 --> 00:23:29,907
Your motorcade is here.

516
00:23:36,515 --> 00:23:38,117
It's nine hours to Moscow...

517
00:23:38,118 --> 00:23:40,152
that's a long way for
the silent treatment.

518
00:23:40,153 --> 00:23:41,620
You went the whole car ride

519
00:23:41,621 --> 00:23:43,822
- without speaking.
- Sorry.

520
00:23:43,823 --> 00:23:46,792
There's something else on my mind.

521
00:23:46,793 --> 00:23:49,627
You know, I was going to adopt once.

522
00:23:50,462 --> 00:23:52,931
But I was in the
middle of a reelection

523
00:23:52,932 --> 00:23:55,601
in the state assembly...

524
00:23:55,602 --> 00:23:58,871
and I lost the nerve.

525
00:23:58,872 --> 00:24:01,573
I've always regretted that.

526
00:24:01,574 --> 00:24:04,777
You know, I know you don't
like the way this went down,

527
00:24:04,778 --> 00:24:07,279
but you and I both
want the same thing:

528
00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:10,449
to bring those orphans home
as quickly as possible.

529
00:24:10,450 --> 00:24:12,117
Yes.

530
00:24:12,118 --> 00:24:15,720
But only one of us is
cutting a campaign ad.

531
00:24:16,955 --> 00:24:20,191
_

532
00:24:21,627 --> 00:24:24,363
This is Salnikov.

533
00:24:24,364 --> 00:24:28,667
He'll drown you in pomp, but
it's just a stalling technique.

534
00:24:28,668 --> 00:24:30,769
I'm familiar with the practice.

535
00:24:30,770 --> 00:24:32,805
The key is not to indulge him.

536
00:24:32,806 --> 00:24:34,373
We need to maintain firm pressure

537
00:24:34,374 --> 00:24:36,375
to keep these talks on track.

538
00:24:36,376 --> 00:24:38,476
I appreciate the tip.

539
00:24:39,712 --> 00:24:42,114
Madam Vice President.

540
00:24:42,115 --> 00:24:44,917
Madam Secretary.

541
00:24:44,918 --> 00:24:47,451
- Welcome to Moscow.
- Our pleasure.

542
00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:49,688
We're delighted to be here

543
00:24:49,689 --> 00:24:51,924
and to seek redress for our citizens.

544
00:24:51,925 --> 00:24:53,058
What a coincidence.

545
00:24:53,059 --> 00:24:54,860
I'm here to do the same.

546
00:24:54,861 --> 00:24:58,063
Maxim, I understand that you are

547
00:24:58,064 --> 00:25:00,499
an avid collector of antique weaponry.

548
00:25:00,500 --> 00:25:02,167
Mainly guns, it's true.

549
00:25:02,168 --> 00:25:03,502
I've heard that you have

550
00:25:03,503 --> 00:25:05,971
the most exclusive
collection in Europe.

551
00:25:05,972 --> 00:25:07,973
Perhaps you would like to take a tour.

552
00:25:07,974 --> 00:25:09,508
Madam Vice President?

553
00:25:09,509 --> 00:25:11,243
That would be wonderful.

554
00:25:11,244 --> 00:25:13,544
Lead on, Mr. President.

555
00:25:14,980 --> 00:25:17,282
Tell me this is part of a strategy.

556
00:25:17,283 --> 00:25:19,251
I-I wish I could.

557
00:25:19,252 --> 00:25:21,487
FBI's been unable to find any leads

558
00:25:21,488 --> 00:25:24,096
in the search for GRU
Agent Igor Zhukov.

559
00:25:24,097 --> 00:25:25,865
Not even a glimmer?

560
00:25:25,866 --> 00:25:27,035
No sightings on metro cameras

561
00:25:27,036 --> 00:25:29,371
and crickets from our
local informants.

562
00:25:29,372 --> 00:25:30,772
He's a trained assassin.

563
00:25:30,773 --> 00:25:33,342
Conventional methods were
always gonna be a long shot.

564
00:25:33,343 --> 00:25:35,243
I think we should
read in the local PD,

565
00:25:35,244 --> 00:25:37,312
- get more eyeballs on the street.
- If we go wide,

566
00:25:37,313 --> 00:25:39,548
- he'll go to ground.
- And what's the alternative?

567
00:25:39,549 --> 00:25:42,184
I don't know.

568
00:25:42,185 --> 00:25:44,785
We use Alexander as bait.

569
00:25:45,887 --> 00:25:47,622
Alex has avoided predictable behavior

570
00:25:47,623 --> 00:25:50,726
with one exception... he had...

571
00:25:50,727 --> 00:25:53,362
regular meetings at the Potomac Lodge

572
00:25:53,363 --> 00:25:55,030
in the Hay-Adams district.

573
00:25:55,031 --> 00:25:56,264
How regular are we talking?

574
00:25:56,265 --> 00:25:58,299
Enough to establish a pattern.

575
00:25:59,034 --> 00:26:01,570
All right. So if we have Alexander

576
00:26:01,571 --> 00:26:03,438
show up like it's any other day...

577
00:26:03,439 --> 00:26:04,740
Zhukov will make his move.

578
00:26:04,741 --> 00:26:06,707
And then we can move in and take him.

579
00:26:08,643 --> 00:26:10,312
Are we sure about this?

580
00:26:10,313 --> 00:26:13,548
Well, we can't have a GRU killer
loose in the United States.

581
00:26:13,549 --> 00:26:16,284
Zhukov's the kind of guy who
likes to make a statement.

582
00:26:16,285 --> 00:26:18,553
Whatever he's planning
won't be simple, or clean.

583
00:26:18,554 --> 00:26:21,223
Is he ready to put his
life on the line?

584
00:26:21,224 --> 00:26:22,957
He's been through worse.

585
00:26:24,092 --> 00:26:25,460
I'll explain the risk to him.

586
00:26:25,461 --> 00:26:28,629
But I have a feeling he'll say yes.

587
00:26:46,067 --> 00:26:47,902
Brava!

588
00:26:47,903 --> 00:26:49,670
My father was an artilleryman.

589
00:26:49,671 --> 00:26:51,472
I went to bed with stories

590
00:26:51,473 --> 00:26:53,107
of Howitzers.

591
00:26:53,108 --> 00:26:56,610
Mr. President, due respect,
there are hundreds of children

592
00:26:56,611 --> 00:26:58,979
just... ready to go home.

593
00:26:58,980 --> 00:27:00,748
And now for the pièce de résistance.

594
00:27:00,749 --> 00:27:04,118
According to legend,
this flintlock pistol

595
00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:06,220
belonged to Pyotr Pervy,

596
00:27:06,221 --> 00:27:09,022
whom you call Peter the Great.

597
00:27:09,690 --> 00:27:12,426
May I?

598
00:27:12,427 --> 00:27:15,696
Oh. This could be in The Hermitage.

599
00:27:15,697 --> 00:27:18,232
It was... until I bought it.

600
00:27:18,233 --> 00:27:20,501
That's the beauty of new Russia...

601
00:27:20,502 --> 00:27:22,836
everything is for sale.

602
00:27:22,837 --> 00:27:27,141
You know, I, too, admire Peter.

603
00:27:27,142 --> 00:27:28,409
Who doesn't?

604
00:27:28,410 --> 00:27:30,444
He was a military genius.

605
00:27:30,445 --> 00:27:33,614
He was also a diplomat
and-and a reformer

606
00:27:33,615 --> 00:27:37,084
and a man who didn't care
where a good idea came from,

607
00:27:37,085 --> 00:27:39,820
as long as it was good.

608
00:27:39,821 --> 00:27:42,523
And you have such an idea.

609
00:27:42,524 --> 00:27:47,656
Our CDC is running a
highly effective program

610
00:27:47,657 --> 00:27:49,736
to combat the spread of HIV/AIDS

611
00:27:49,737 --> 00:27:52,405
and hepatitis C, two diseases

612
00:27:52,406 --> 00:27:55,408
which, unfortunately,
are spreading rapidly

613
00:27:55,409 --> 00:27:56,676
through your country.

614
00:27:56,677 --> 00:27:58,344
These are merely rumors.

615
00:27:58,345 --> 00:28:00,513
We have the situation well in hand.

616
00:28:00,514 --> 00:28:03,016
Yeah, well, no doubt.

617
00:28:03,017 --> 00:28:06,886
But this isn't a problem you
can shoot your way out of.

618
00:28:06,887 --> 00:28:09,989
She's right, Maxim.

619
00:28:09,990 --> 00:28:11,624
Let us help you.

620
00:28:11,625 --> 00:28:13,893
Discreetly, of course,
so your government

621
00:28:13,894 --> 00:28:17,262
can take credit.

622
00:28:19,833 --> 00:28:21,901
Very well.

623
00:28:21,902 --> 00:28:24,236
I am listening.

624
00:28:25,938 --> 00:28:27,373
So, where are we?

625
00:28:27,374 --> 00:28:28,808
All units, report in.

626
00:28:28,809 --> 00:28:30,343
Alpha Team in position.

627
00:28:30,344 --> 00:28:33,112
Beta Team standing by.

628
00:28:33,113 --> 00:28:34,480
Bishop...

629
00:28:34,481 --> 00:28:36,349
ready in pursuit.

630
00:28:36,350 --> 00:28:39,352
This is Cardinal. I'm en route.

631
00:28:39,353 --> 00:28:42,021
ETA ten minutes.

632
00:28:42,022 --> 00:28:43,222
All units nominal.

633
00:28:43,223 --> 00:28:44,624
What about civilians?

634
00:28:44,625 --> 00:28:45,992
DDOT has road crews
restricting traffic

635
00:28:45,993 --> 00:28:47,593
within a six-block
radius of the hotel.

636
00:28:47,594 --> 00:28:49,961
The area is well contained.

637
00:28:58,237 --> 00:28:59,505
There are no blind spots.

638
00:28:59,506 --> 00:29:02,040
OTD folks know what they're doing.

639
00:29:06,446 --> 00:29:08,247
And clear fields of fire.

640
00:29:08,248 --> 00:29:10,083
That's generally a good thing.

641
00:29:10,084 --> 00:29:12,151
Nope. No, it's too exposed.

642
00:29:12,152 --> 00:29:14,353
I was wrong... Zhukov
would never do it here.

643
00:29:14,354 --> 00:29:17,255
Why would he risk it?

644
00:29:21,894 --> 00:29:25,064
There. Do you see that?

645
00:29:25,065 --> 00:29:27,166
Alexander, bail out.

646
00:29:27,167 --> 00:29:28,367
What?

647
00:29:28,368 --> 00:29:30,702
Get out of the car. Now.

648
00:29:42,482 --> 00:29:44,083
Oh, God.

649
00:29:44,084 --> 00:29:45,084
Was that a rocket launcher?

650
00:29:45,085 --> 00:29:46,351
Looks like an IED.

651
00:29:47,153 --> 00:29:48,788
What's the status of Cardinal?

652
00:29:48,789 --> 00:29:51,023
What's the status of Cardinal?

653
00:29:51,024 --> 00:29:52,258
Hey, you okay?

654
00:29:52,259 --> 00:29:54,193
- Okay, roll him...
- Careful, careful.

655
00:29:55,295 --> 00:29:56,929
- Bishop, report.
- You okay?

656
00:29:56,930 --> 00:29:58,698
This is Bishop. We got Cardinal.

657
00:29:58,699 --> 00:30:01,134
He's fine. But we lost Zhukov.

658
00:30:01,135 --> 00:30:03,402
Okay, take the CIRG team off standby.

659
00:30:03,403 --> 00:30:05,905
We need rapid deployment.
Come on, let's go, let's go!

660
00:30:05,906 --> 00:30:09,642
Please tell me you
have a lead on Zhukov.

661
00:30:09,643 --> 00:30:11,110
I wish I could.

662
00:30:11,111 --> 00:30:15,047
The FBI set up a cordon, but...
apparently, he slipped through.

663
00:30:15,048 --> 00:30:17,049
How's Dmitri?

664
00:30:17,050 --> 00:30:19,786
He's banged up, but he'll be okay.

665
00:30:19,787 --> 00:30:22,421
How's the VP?

666
00:30:22,422 --> 00:30:25,124
Useful, actually.

667
00:30:25,125 --> 00:30:27,360
Kind of a...

668
00:30:27,361 --> 00:30:29,328
Lacey to my Cagney.

669
00:30:29,329 --> 00:30:32,064
So you're playing bad
cop for a change, huh?

670
00:30:32,065 --> 00:30:33,266
Yeah.

671
00:30:33,267 --> 00:30:34,934
Well, it suits me.

672
00:30:34,935 --> 00:30:38,738
Especially dealing with
a sinister windbag

673
00:30:38,739 --> 00:30:40,973
like Salnikov.

674
00:30:42,376 --> 00:30:45,011
Knowing that he sent an
assassin to U.S. soil

675
00:30:45,012 --> 00:30:48,514
made we want to... stuff him
in his stupid little cannon

676
00:30:48,515 --> 00:30:49,982
and fire it.

677
00:30:51,451 --> 00:30:53,386
So, what happens to Dmitri?

678
00:30:53,387 --> 00:30:55,588
Uh, Director Haymond
approved his transfer

679
00:30:55,589 --> 00:30:57,223
to Alaska Station.

680
00:30:57,224 --> 00:31:00,026
That way he'll be able to
monitor Russian activity

681
00:31:00,027 --> 00:31:01,928
in relative safety.

682
00:31:01,929 --> 00:31:04,197
And his sister?

683
00:31:04,198 --> 00:31:06,232
Talia's gonna stay in D.C.

684
00:31:06,233 --> 00:31:07,834
and finish school.

685
00:31:07,835 --> 00:31:10,302
After that, it's up to her.

686
00:31:12,538 --> 00:31:15,675
What are we gonna tell Stevie?

687
00:31:21,180 --> 00:31:23,182
Wasting electricity.

688
00:31:23,183 --> 00:31:25,450
I know.

689
00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:30,957
Sorry, I'm a little, um, stir-crazy.

690
00:31:30,958 --> 00:31:32,592
Let me fix you something.

691
00:31:32,593 --> 00:31:34,927
Like...

692
00:31:34,928 --> 00:31:36,863
eggs or eggs.

693
00:31:36,864 --> 00:31:38,564
Our options are kind of limited.

694
00:31:38,565 --> 00:31:41,767
Dad, you don't have to babysit me.

695
00:31:41,768 --> 00:31:43,970
Uh, I don't have a choice.

696
00:31:43,971 --> 00:31:45,471
I'm kind of cursed that way.

697
00:31:45,472 --> 00:31:46,973
You know, you don't remember this,

698
00:31:46,974 --> 00:31:50,610
but when you were about three,
you fell out of a tree.

699
00:31:50,611 --> 00:31:52,979
And you... hit the ground.

700
00:31:52,980 --> 00:31:54,413
You didn't move.

701
00:31:54,414 --> 00:31:57,183
I was... I was pretty cool.

702
00:31:57,184 --> 00:31:59,619
I checked your pulse, made
sure you were breathing.

703
00:31:59,620 --> 00:32:02,488
When we got home and I
knew you were safe,

704
00:32:02,489 --> 00:32:03,956
I just lost it.

705
00:32:03,957 --> 00:32:06,591
The thou...

706
00:32:08,527 --> 00:32:11,597
I'm sorry I scared you.

707
00:32:11,598 --> 00:32:14,233
You didn't know.

708
00:32:14,234 --> 00:32:16,702
Yeah, but...

709
00:32:18,505 --> 00:32:21,274
Another damaged, unavailable guy.

710
00:32:21,275 --> 00:32:26,646
I mean, Jareth was
an exception, but...

711
00:32:26,647 --> 00:32:29,315
I don't know, it just keeps happening.

712
00:32:29,316 --> 00:32:32,251
It's, like, becoming a
pattern or something.

713
00:32:32,252 --> 00:32:34,587
Look, Alexander was no Harrison or...

714
00:32:34,588 --> 00:32:36,088
Armon.

715
00:32:36,089 --> 00:32:38,691
You... Do you mean Arthur?

716
00:32:38,692 --> 00:32:39,992
Arthur. Arthur.

717
00:32:39,993 --> 00:32:41,994
He was twice your age and so pedantic.

718
00:32:41,995 --> 00:32:44,897
Peda... Dad, look who's talking.

719
00:32:44,898 --> 00:32:49,201
Look, it's completely normal
to question yourself.

720
00:32:49,202 --> 00:32:53,506
I do it all the time...
these days, especially.

721
00:32:53,507 --> 00:32:56,575
Just the idea that I would
be involved in something

722
00:32:56,576 --> 00:32:59,377
that put you in danger...

723
00:33:01,547 --> 00:33:06,552
A-Alexander did heroic
things for this country,

724
00:33:06,553 --> 00:33:09,988
at im-immense personal cost.

725
00:33:12,525 --> 00:33:14,993
He's a courageous young man.

726
00:33:30,076 --> 00:33:33,045
I am very pleased with this deal.

727
00:33:33,046 --> 00:33:36,782
Your people send me this memo
about our joint statement.

728
00:33:36,783 --> 00:33:39,918
It's... wonderful.

729
00:33:40,953 --> 00:33:43,222
But?

730
00:33:43,223 --> 00:33:44,957
There is one small detail

731
00:33:44,958 --> 00:33:47,493
I would like to add. A pledge

732
00:33:47,494 --> 00:33:51,764
to discuss the presence of
American troops in Bulgaria.

733
00:33:51,765 --> 00:33:53,499
The country you invaded.

734
00:33:53,500 --> 00:33:57,036
Otherwise, the adoptees
stay in Russia.

735
00:33:57,037 --> 00:33:58,437
Where they belong.

736
00:33:58,438 --> 00:34:02,208
Why don't you send us the
language you have in mind?

737
00:34:05,478 --> 00:34:07,747
We need to talk, alone.

738
00:34:07,748 --> 00:34:09,047
Please.

739
00:34:12,318 --> 00:34:13,886
- We need to walk.
- Why?

740
00:34:13,887 --> 00:34:16,155
It's not like he declared war.

741
00:34:16,156 --> 00:34:19,558
Our NATO deployment is off-limits.

742
00:34:19,559 --> 00:34:22,561
It is a glowing red line,
and he just crossed it.

743
00:34:22,562 --> 00:34:24,630
We are inches from the finish line.

744
00:34:24,631 --> 00:34:25,798
What is the harm in negotiating?

745
00:34:25,799 --> 00:34:28,401
Negotiating is the harm.

746
00:34:28,402 --> 00:34:30,703
If he walks out there

747
00:34:30,704 --> 00:34:33,706
and says that we have opened the door

748
00:34:33,707 --> 00:34:36,776
to pulling out of Europe,
our allies will panic.

749
00:34:36,777 --> 00:34:37,810
So reassure them.

750
00:34:37,811 --> 00:34:39,011
By saying what?

751
00:34:39,012 --> 00:34:41,247
That we're being duplicitous
but not with you?

752
00:34:41,248 --> 00:34:42,715
We can refuse the joint statement

753
00:34:42,716 --> 00:34:44,383
- and come up with new incentives.
- No.

754
00:34:44,384 --> 00:34:46,352
Groveling will only make things worse.

755
00:34:46,353 --> 00:34:49,221
I cannot abandon those children.

756
00:34:49,222 --> 00:34:52,258
I made a promise to the American
people, to their parents,

757
00:34:52,259 --> 00:34:53,925
to bring them home.

758
00:34:54,660 --> 00:34:59,098
Your promises are not my problem.

759
00:34:59,099 --> 00:35:01,267
National security is.

760
00:35:01,268 --> 00:35:03,803
Blake.

761
00:35:03,804 --> 00:35:06,405
I'm leaving, Madam Vice President.

762
00:35:06,406 --> 00:35:08,339
So are you.

763
00:35:13,769 --> 00:35:17,656
That is great news. And, again,
we're ready to assist the FBI

764
00:35:17,657 --> 00:35:18,790
in any way you need.

765
00:35:18,791 --> 00:35:20,359
Yeah. Thanks. Bye.

766
00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:22,794
We got Zhukov.

767
00:35:22,795 --> 00:35:24,496
Oh, thank God. Where?

768
00:35:24,497 --> 00:35:27,299
Uh, at the FBI checkpoint
at Lake Champlain,

769
00:35:27,300 --> 00:35:28,834
- near the Canadian border.
- Oh, my God.

770
00:35:28,835 --> 00:35:31,470
Then-then that means
Stevie's safe, right? Yes?

771
00:35:31,471 --> 00:35:32,940
- Oh, God.
- Yeah, yeah, I mean, we should keep

772
00:35:32,941 --> 00:35:35,540
the detail on her for a couple
more days, but threat is over.

773
00:35:35,541 --> 00:35:36,642
Mm.

774
00:35:36,643 --> 00:35:40,479
Oh, that just about
takes the sting out

775
00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:42,481
- of my face-plant in Moscow.
- No,

776
00:35:42,482 --> 00:35:44,149
come on. That's on the VP, not you.

777
00:35:44,150 --> 00:35:45,984
Russell was right.

778
00:35:45,985 --> 00:35:49,454
This was a fool's errand
from the beginning,

779
00:35:49,455 --> 00:35:51,289
- you know?
- Here.

780
00:35:51,290 --> 00:35:54,593
I shouldn't have let
guilt cloud my judgment.

781
00:35:54,594 --> 00:35:56,395
But the thing is, honestly,

782
00:35:56,396 --> 00:36:00,381
I wanted to support a
woman who felt betrayed.

783
00:36:00,533 --> 00:36:02,868
You know? And those kids.

784
00:36:05,171 --> 00:36:06,772
I reached out to the Gundersons.

785
00:36:06,773 --> 00:36:10,347
You know, the-the parents
of the boy in the video?

786
00:36:10,348 --> 00:36:12,282
Yeah. Who could forget?

787
00:36:12,283 --> 00:36:14,318
Yeah.

788
00:36:14,319 --> 00:36:16,120
They wouldn't take my call.

789
00:36:16,121 --> 00:36:18,622
We would file a claim

790
00:36:18,623 --> 00:36:22,259
in the European Court of Human Rights.

791
00:36:22,260 --> 00:36:25,596
There's a chance Russia
will respect their ruling.

792
00:36:25,597 --> 00:36:26,930
Mm...

793
00:36:26,931 --> 00:36:28,799
Okay. That chance is zero.

794
00:36:32,737 --> 00:36:34,671
Ow. Mm.

795
00:36:34,672 --> 00:36:37,007
Mm.

796
00:36:37,008 --> 00:36:39,543
Wait a second. Wait, wait, wait.

797
00:36:39,544 --> 00:36:41,378
Where is Zhukov now?

798
00:36:41,379 --> 00:36:43,892
Uh, he's being transported
to FBI Headquarters.

799
00:36:43,893 --> 00:36:44,715
No, no.

800
00:36:44,716 --> 00:36:46,752
They'll probably just throw
him in some deep, dark hole.

801
00:36:46,753 --> 00:36:49,031
They can't do that.
Not yet, not yet. We got to...

802
00:36:49,032 --> 00:36:50,888
we got to try one thing.

803
00:36:50,889 --> 00:36:53,824
We categorically deny
any involvement.

804
00:36:53,825 --> 00:36:56,427
Such an attack would be
against our principles.

805
00:36:56,428 --> 00:36:58,328
This isn't your call-in show, Maxim.

806
00:36:58,329 --> 00:36:59,763
Platitudes won't help you.

807
00:36:59,764 --> 00:37:01,331
What more is there to say?

808
00:37:01,332 --> 00:37:04,234
Our government denies any
knowledge of Mr. Zhukov.

809
00:37:04,235 --> 00:37:10,107
Well, Zhukov categorically
admitted to working for the GRU.

810
00:37:10,108 --> 00:37:11,241
That's right. He's in custody.

811
00:37:11,242 --> 00:37:14,344
And he was all too
happy to name names,

812
00:37:14,345 --> 00:37:17,981
including that of his
handler, Yaroslav Ryback.

813
00:37:17,982 --> 00:37:21,351
Who is the linchpin of
your entire spy network

814
00:37:21,352 --> 00:37:22,653
in the United States.

815
00:37:22,654 --> 00:37:26,223
Ryback has been operating
under nonofficial cover.

816
00:37:26,224 --> 00:37:28,592
So, no diplomatic immunity.

817
00:37:28,593 --> 00:37:32,096
Which means, under federal law,
he can be executed.

818
00:37:32,097 --> 00:37:36,100
However, might consider clemency,

819
00:37:36,101 --> 00:37:38,035
maybe even a future exchange,

820
00:37:38,036 --> 00:37:40,370
under one condition.

821
00:37:40,371 --> 00:37:42,206
And that would be?

822
00:37:42,207 --> 00:37:45,542
Honor the original terms of
the deal we struck in Moscow.

823
00:37:45,543 --> 00:37:48,177
Those orphans come home.

824
00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:53,115
They'll be on a plane tomorrow.

825
00:37:53,884 --> 00:37:56,053
Thank you for your time.

826
00:37:56,054 --> 00:37:58,489
I have to ask.

827
00:37:58,490 --> 00:38:01,492
This man you accuse of being GRU,

828
00:38:01,493 --> 00:38:04,361
he could resist any
form of interrogation.

829
00:38:04,362 --> 00:38:06,697
How did you get him to crack?

830
00:38:06,698 --> 00:38:08,665
Don't you know?

831
00:38:08,666 --> 00:38:12,301
Everything in new Russia's for sale.

832
00:38:13,237 --> 00:38:15,339
Offering cash

833
00:38:15,340 --> 00:38:16,773
to a GRU assassin.

834
00:38:16,774 --> 00:38:18,709
I got to say, that took guts.

835
00:38:18,710 --> 00:38:20,811
Credit lies with Conrad.

836
00:38:20,812 --> 00:38:22,880
He had to approve it.

837
00:38:22,881 --> 00:38:25,849
Still, this was a guy who might
have murdered your own daughter.

838
00:38:25,850 --> 00:38:28,485
Trying to forget that.

839
00:38:28,486 --> 00:38:30,220
I'm sorry I doubted you.

840
00:38:30,221 --> 00:38:32,756
We make strong allies, Elizabeth.

841
00:38:32,757 --> 00:38:33,757
Can we bury the hatchet?

842
00:38:33,758 --> 00:38:34,758
Of course.

843
00:38:36,261 --> 00:38:37,561
Madam Vice President.

844
00:38:37,562 --> 00:38:39,996
Madam Secretary.

845
00:38:42,466 --> 00:38:46,270
I just need one thing from you.

846
00:38:46,271 --> 00:38:47,571
Rule yourself out.

847
00:38:47,572 --> 00:38:48,872
Pardon?

848
00:38:48,873 --> 00:38:51,375
Announce you won't run
for president in public.

849
00:38:51,376 --> 00:38:53,210
Shouldn't be difficult.
You've already said

850
00:38:53,211 --> 00:38:55,378
you have zero interest in the job.

851
00:38:56,180 --> 00:38:58,981
I can't do that.

852
00:38:59,750 --> 00:39:03,219
Well, that's disappointing.

853
00:39:19,736 --> 00:39:21,604
Hey...

854
00:39:23,740 --> 00:39:25,442
There you are.

855
00:39:25,443 --> 00:39:26,843
Hey!

856
00:39:26,844 --> 00:39:30,313
Welcome home.

857
00:39:38,989 --> 00:39:40,891
Thanks for coming.

858
00:39:40,892 --> 00:39:43,293
It was the least I can do.

859
00:39:43,294 --> 00:39:45,395
This country owes you a great debt.

860
00:39:47,265 --> 00:39:49,399
But not you.

861
00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:53,502
Uh, I've given you more
than enough trouble.

862
00:39:54,271 --> 00:39:56,373
That's fair to say.

863
00:39:56,374 --> 00:39:59,610
I'll look in on your
sister from time to time.

864
00:39:59,611 --> 00:40:02,178
That's very kind of you.

865
00:40:05,916 --> 00:40:09,419
Thank you, Henry,

866
00:40:09,420 --> 00:40:12,054
for all you've done for us.

867
00:40:15,726 --> 00:40:18,761
There's someone else that
wants to say good-bye to you.

868
00:40:38,315 --> 00:40:41,350
Hey, you.

869
00:40:47,090 --> 00:40:49,359
- I thought I was never gonna see you again.
- I didn't think I'd see you.

870
00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:52,029
Listen, I...

871
00:40:52,030 --> 00:40:54,331
I knew it was all wrong.

872
00:40:54,332 --> 00:40:57,301
Every time I saw you, I told
myself I was going to end it.

873
00:40:57,302 --> 00:40:59,503
And then... I saw you

874
00:40:59,504 --> 00:41:01,905
and... I couldn't.

875
00:41:03,875 --> 00:41:06,810
So much for a fling, right?

876
00:41:06,811 --> 00:41:09,813
I'm so sorry, Stevie.

877
00:41:09,814 --> 00:41:11,315
No, I am.

878
00:41:11,316 --> 00:41:13,984
I-I didn't mean to get you...

879
00:41:13,985 --> 00:41:16,119
exiled or whatever.

880
00:41:16,120 --> 00:41:17,354
It's okay.

881
00:41:17,355 --> 00:41:19,156
Exile is a very Russian thing.

882
00:41:19,157 --> 00:41:21,058
It's like a rite of passage.

883
00:41:22,160 --> 00:41:24,328
Mehranov, Alexander.

884
00:41:24,329 --> 00:41:26,028
It's time to go.

885
00:41:33,770 --> 00:41:37,473
That cabin in the mountains
was really beautiful.

886
00:41:38,408 --> 00:41:40,844
We'll always have the Potomac Lodge.

887
00:41:56,093 --> 00:41:58,961
Good-bye, Stephanie McCord.

888
00:42:00,163 --> 00:42:02,465
So long.

889
00:42:05,303 --> 00:42:07,703
Hey.

890
00:42:09,473 --> 00:42:11,373
What's your real name?

891
00:42:12,142 --> 00:42:14,611
Dmitri.

892
00:42:14,612 --> 00:42:16,512
Mitya.

893
00:42:17,314 --> 00:42:21,584
Good-bye, Mitya.

894
