1
00:00:00,001 --> 00:00:02,397
Yes, Dad, I saw the article you sent.

2
00:00:03,120 --> 00:00:04,476
I've just been busy.

3
00:00:04,839 --> 00:00:08,328
No, they're not overworking me,
but I'm an intern,

4
00:00:08,363 --> 00:00:11,199
so I kinda have to do, like, everything.

5
00:00:12,545 --> 00:00:13,869
President?

6
00:00:13,904 --> 00:00:15,159
I don't know, Dad.

7
00:00:15,194 --> 00:00:16,991
Okay, I gotta go.

8
00:00:17,026 --> 00:00:19,192
I'll talk to you later.

9
00:00:19,227 --> 00:00:21,712
Love you, too.

10
00:00:24,583 --> 00:00:26,516
Can I help you?

11
00:00:26,585 --> 00:00:28,118
I need a gun.

12
00:00:28,186 --> 00:00:29,753
You got ID?

13
00:00:32,691 --> 00:00:34,758
So what kind of gun you want?

14
00:00:34,826 --> 00:00:37,127
One that works.

15
00:00:38,764 --> 00:00:43,764
Synced and corrected by BLuk

16
00:00:49,707 --> 00:00:50,707
I have nothing to say to you.

17
00:00:50,776 --> 00:00:53,776
It's about the hijacking. It was Cyrus.

18
00:00:53,845 --> 00:00:56,379
Cyrus Beene hijacked
his own plane for attention?

19
00:00:56,447 --> 00:00:57,914
He wants to be President.

20
00:00:57,982 --> 00:01:00,417
The election's not for another three
years. Seven if Mellie runs again.

21
00:01:00,485 --> 00:01:02,652
I don't think
he wants to wait that long.

22
00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:04,987
Cyrus wants the Oval. He wants it now.

23
00:01:05,056 --> 00:01:07,323
We need to figure out
how he's going to take that,

24
00:01:07,392 --> 00:01:08,558
and what it means for Mellie.

25
00:01:08,561 --> 00:01:10,228
- We?
- The team.

26
00:01:10,296 --> 00:01:11,696
You don't have a team.

27
00:01:11,765 --> 00:01:13,164
I know that.

28
00:01:13,233 --> 00:01:15,333
No, you don't. If you did,
you wouldn't come to my home,

29
00:01:15,402 --> 00:01:16,834
- asking for favors.
- Abby...

30
00:01:16,903 --> 00:01:19,470
If I went to QPA with this and
told them that it came from you?

31
00:01:19,539 --> 00:01:20,738
I'd be out on my ass, too.

32
00:01:20,807 --> 00:01:22,318
That's how much they don't
want to hear from you.

33
00:01:22,376 --> 00:01:23,975
I understand what you're saying.

34
00:01:24,044 --> 00:01:27,412
I wouldn't be here
if I had another option.

35
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:30,748
I'm not asking for forgiveness,
I'm asking for help.

36
00:01:30,817 --> 00:01:32,250
I need help.

37
00:01:32,318 --> 00:01:33,685
Please.

38
00:01:35,588 --> 00:01:37,321
I'll see what I can do.

39
00:01:37,390 --> 00:01:39,624
And then, if this theory
of yours proves to be true,

40
00:01:39,693 --> 00:01:42,126
the team will decide whether
it's a fight worth fighting.

41
00:01:46,566 --> 00:01:47,899
Madam President?

42
00:01:47,967 --> 00:01:50,134
Down here.

43
00:01:55,408 --> 00:01:58,009
I tweaked my back. Can you believe it?

44
00:01:58,078 --> 00:02:00,211
The doctor gave me
a tennis ball, some Tylenol,

45
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,613
and said, "Good luck."
President of the United States.

46
00:02:02,682 --> 00:02:04,749
Short of overhauling
the country's medical training,

47
00:02:04,818 --> 00:02:06,784
- how can I help?
- The federal budget.

48
00:02:06,853 --> 00:02:08,219
We're facing a government shutdown

49
00:02:08,288 --> 00:02:09,787
if we can't get the votes in Congress.

50
00:02:09,856 --> 00:02:11,489
You want to use B613
to dig up some dirt?

51
00:02:11,558 --> 00:02:14,392
No. Threatening people
creates resentment.

52
00:02:14,461 --> 00:02:16,694
I don't just want votes, I want support,

53
00:02:16,763 --> 00:02:18,162
and there's an easier way.

54
00:02:19,866 --> 00:02:21,232
We need Cyrus.

55
00:02:21,301 --> 00:02:22,333
Madam President...

56
00:02:22,402 --> 00:02:24,469
He's dominating in the polls right now.

57
00:02:24,537 --> 00:02:26,804
We'd be foolish
not to take advantage of it.

58
00:02:26,873 --> 00:02:28,239
I'd prefer we find another way.

59
00:02:28,308 --> 00:02:29,774
And I'd prefer to be on my feet,

60
00:02:29,843 --> 00:02:31,776
but until a better option
presents itself...

61
00:02:32,912 --> 00:02:36,247
...you got to let your grudge match go.
We need him.

62
00:02:36,316 --> 00:02:38,282
Yes, Madam President.

63
00:02:38,351 --> 00:02:39,550
This thing's a mess.

64
00:02:39,619 --> 00:02:42,720
The computer virus that managed
to circumvent all our safety protocols

65
00:02:42,789 --> 00:02:44,689
and take control
of the Vice President's plane

66
00:02:44,758 --> 00:02:45,790
is a mess?

67
00:02:45,859 --> 00:02:48,059
A total hack job.
It's got syntax errors,

68
00:02:48,128 --> 00:02:51,629
recursion loops, it leaks memory
like the Exxon Valdez.

69
00:02:51,698 --> 00:02:53,064
I could cross-reference the code

70
00:02:53,133 --> 00:02:54,565
with the code of all known hackers,

71
00:02:54,634 --> 00:02:56,200
but that would be a waste of time.

72
00:02:56,269 --> 00:02:58,336
No self-respecting coder did this.

73
00:02:58,404 --> 00:03:00,438
- So who did?
- There are two possibilities.

74
00:03:00,507 --> 00:03:02,907
Either the coder is new...
like grade-school new...

75
00:03:02,976 --> 00:03:06,410
or they did a crappy job on purpose
so the code would be impenetrable,

76
00:03:06,479 --> 00:03:08,279
which would make them a secret genius.

77
00:03:11,751 --> 00:03:13,284
Liv.

78
00:03:13,353 --> 00:03:14,786
It's late. What's up?

79
00:03:14,854 --> 00:03:17,321
Not much. I was thinking about
grabbing some dinner.

80
00:03:17,390 --> 00:03:18,656
Interested?

81
00:03:18,725 --> 00:03:20,725
You really don't have
any other friends, do you?

82
00:03:20,794 --> 00:03:22,760
No. Not really.

83
00:03:22,829 --> 00:03:24,662
Although I did talk to Abby today.

84
00:03:24,731 --> 00:03:27,632
She even invited me into her
apartment, so that's something.

85
00:03:27,700 --> 00:03:29,233
Yeah? What did you talk about?

86
00:03:31,004 --> 00:03:32,503
Nothing.

87
00:03:34,347 --> 00:03:35,646
Excuse me. I'm sorry.

88
00:03:35,715 --> 00:03:37,815
I waited in reception but there
wasn't anyone at the desk.

89
00:03:37,884 --> 00:03:39,820
Well, it's actually after hours,
so if you want to come back...

90
00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:42,620
- You're Olivia Pope.
- I am.

91
00:03:42,688 --> 00:03:45,055
You're the person I'm looking for.

92
00:03:46,333 --> 00:03:49,768
Alisha's only 21.
No one's seen her in days.

93
00:03:49,836 --> 00:03:51,436
Her roommate doesn't know anything,

94
00:03:51,505 --> 00:03:54,072
and the cops say it's too soon
to call her a missing person.

95
00:03:54,141 --> 00:03:56,141
I-I don't know this city.

96
00:03:56,209 --> 00:03:59,044
It's the first time I've set
foot outside Ohio in 10 years.

97
00:03:59,112 --> 00:04:02,580
Gary. I'm sorry,
but this is not what I do.

98
00:04:02,649 --> 00:04:05,083
Not anymore. However, I am sure th...

99
00:04:05,152 --> 00:04:07,385
She's here because of you.

100
00:04:07,454 --> 00:04:09,521
- What do you mean?
- She idolizes you.

101
00:04:09,589 --> 00:04:11,356
She's watched you for years on TV

102
00:04:11,425 --> 00:04:15,460
speaking for members of Congress,
senators, Presidents.

103
00:04:16,863 --> 00:04:18,730
A woman who looks like her.

104
00:04:18,799 --> 00:04:21,132
You're the reason she
fell in love with politics.

105
00:04:21,201 --> 00:04:22,867
You're the reason she came to D.C.,

106
00:04:22,936 --> 00:04:25,036
the reason she became
a Congressional intern.

107
00:04:25,105 --> 00:04:28,973
A-And she's doing so well.
I'm... I'm so proud.

108
00:04:29,042 --> 00:04:32,877
I-If you could see how hard
she works, how smart she is,

109
00:04:32,946 --> 00:04:35,246
you'd be proud to have
someone like Alisha

110
00:04:35,315 --> 00:04:36,715
following in your footsteps.

111
00:04:36,783 --> 00:04:39,384
But something happened.

112
00:04:39,453 --> 00:04:43,488
She hasn't called me in a week,
and it's not like her.

113
00:04:43,557 --> 00:04:45,156
Something's wrong.

114
00:04:45,225 --> 00:04:47,892
I... know it in my gut.

115
00:04:50,797 --> 00:04:53,398
Alisha came here because of you,

116
00:04:53,467 --> 00:04:57,535
and now I'm here because of you.

117
00:04:57,604 --> 00:04:59,237
Please.

118
00:04:59,306 --> 00:05:01,706
Help me find my daughter.

119
00:05:08,096 --> 00:05:10,564
Alisha Francis.
21-year-old Georgetown senior

120
00:05:10,632 --> 00:05:12,432
majoring in Government Affairs.

121
00:05:12,501 --> 00:05:14,101
Since the summer, she's been interning

122
00:05:14,169 --> 00:05:16,370
in the office of Ohio
Congressman Philip Beard.

123
00:05:17,740 --> 00:05:19,640
Her father hasn't heard
from her for a week.

124
00:05:19,708 --> 00:05:21,642
Have you spoken to anyone in
Congressman Beard's office?

125
00:05:21,710 --> 00:05:23,777
I tried them, but I just
got the runaround.

126
00:05:23,846 --> 00:05:26,213
You think there's a case there?

127
00:05:26,282 --> 00:05:29,483
I know this isn't
exactly what we do, but...

128
00:05:30,819 --> 00:05:32,185
Okay.

129
00:05:32,254 --> 00:05:34,688
I'll head to her apartment.
See what I can find.

130
00:05:34,757 --> 00:05:36,089
I'll reach out to Metro Police.

131
00:05:36,158 --> 00:05:38,191
They're getting pretty
accustomed to hearing from me.

132
00:05:45,534 --> 00:05:47,367
Thank you.

133
00:05:50,472 --> 00:05:53,273
Cyrus Beene, the Vice President
of the United States,

134
00:05:53,342 --> 00:05:55,175
hijacked his own plane? That's...

135
00:05:55,244 --> 00:05:56,643
The plot of a bad action movie?

136
00:05:56,712 --> 00:05:58,779
Now that I said it out loud,
yeah, I guess it kind of is,

137
00:05:58,847 --> 00:06:00,314
but that doesn't mean it's not true.

138
00:06:00,382 --> 00:06:01,782
Well, where is this coming from?

139
00:06:01,850 --> 00:06:03,884
I-Is it a hunch? Have you
been talking to someone?

140
00:06:03,952 --> 00:06:06,720
Just David. Something he told me
got me thinking.

141
00:06:06,789 --> 00:06:08,488
Something?

142
00:06:08,557 --> 00:06:09,890
He said Cyrus requested that
he go to Lisbon with him.

143
00:06:09,958 --> 00:06:11,458
Cyrus Beene, my former boss...

144
00:06:11,527 --> 00:06:13,994
A man whose personal e-mail
still ends in "aol.com"...

145
00:06:14,063 --> 00:06:16,963
suddenly signs up for a digital
piracy summit an ocean away?

146
00:06:17,032 --> 00:06:18,432
Why would he do that? Unless...

147
00:06:18,500 --> 00:06:20,000
He wanted to be on Air Force Two.

148
00:06:20,069 --> 00:06:22,836
Excuse me. Before we all bust
out the tinfoil hats,

149
00:06:22,905 --> 00:06:24,671
do I need to remind
you people what happened

150
00:06:24,740 --> 00:06:26,807
the last time one of us ran up
a White House conspiracy

151
00:06:26,875 --> 00:06:28,175
- involving a plane?
- Charlie.

152
00:06:28,243 --> 00:06:31,478
Quinn...can I speak to you for a sec?

153
00:06:31,547 --> 00:06:32,646
Alone?

154
00:06:36,752 --> 00:06:39,119
Okay, talk.

155
00:06:39,188 --> 00:06:41,855
I lost you. You were...dead.

156
00:06:41,924 --> 00:06:44,858
Yeah, but now I'm back,
and we have a job to do.

157
00:06:44,927 --> 00:06:47,461
Yes, I know. But...going after Cyrus...

158
00:06:47,529 --> 00:06:50,130
Is exactly the kind of thing we do here.

159
00:06:50,199 --> 00:06:52,165
Charlie, if Abby is right,

160
00:06:52,234 --> 00:06:54,267
if Cyrus is up to something
and we do nothing?

161
00:06:54,336 --> 00:06:56,770
Then whatever happens next
will be on us.

162
00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:58,905
I didn't come back
to sit on the sidelines.

163
00:07:03,746 --> 00:07:05,145
Olivia Pope.

164
00:07:05,214 --> 00:07:06,480
Yes, and you are?

165
00:07:06,548 --> 00:07:08,548
Meghan... Seeley. I...

166
00:07:08,617 --> 00:07:11,151
What are you doing here?

167
00:07:11,220 --> 00:07:13,820
I'm looking for Alisha Francis.

168
00:07:13,889 --> 00:07:15,989
You're Alisha's hero.

169
00:07:16,058 --> 00:07:18,058
Or, I guess heroine.

170
00:07:18,127 --> 00:07:20,694
You say she's been
gone a couple of days.

171
00:07:20,763 --> 00:07:24,765
She moped around for a day or so
after she lost her job,

172
00:07:24,833 --> 00:07:26,433
but I didn't see her after that.

173
00:07:26,502 --> 00:07:28,535
I figured she went home
to her parents' place

174
00:07:28,604 --> 00:07:30,404
- to lick her wounds.
- She lost her job when?

175
00:07:30,472 --> 00:07:32,305
Last week.

176
00:07:32,374 --> 00:07:36,076
She wouldn't have told you
if she were leaving town?

177
00:07:36,145 --> 00:07:38,979
We really just share the rent.
We're not super close.

178
00:07:39,047 --> 00:07:40,747
So then, she probably didn't talk to you

179
00:07:40,816 --> 00:07:42,048
about how she lost her job?

180
00:07:42,117 --> 00:07:44,618
Well, that's actually kinda awkward.

181
00:07:44,686 --> 00:07:46,653
We've both been interning
for Congressman Beard.

182
00:07:46,722 --> 00:07:48,321
It's how we got matched as roommates.

183
00:07:48,390 --> 00:07:49,856
When your internship is over,

184
00:07:49,925 --> 00:07:52,058
they either hire you on
full-time or they say,

185
00:07:52,127 --> 00:07:54,528
"Thanks, but no thanks,"
and you have to figure out

186
00:07:54,596 --> 00:07:56,863
something else to do with your life.

187
00:07:56,932 --> 00:08:00,100
I got hired, but Alisha...

188
00:08:00,169 --> 00:08:02,202
She didn't.

189
00:08:02,271 --> 00:08:03,670
Yeah.

190
00:08:03,739 --> 00:08:06,640
Speaking of,
I really should get to work.

191
00:08:06,708 --> 00:08:08,575
You go ahead, finish getting ready.

192
00:08:08,644 --> 00:08:09,843
I'll walk out with you.

193
00:08:18,487 --> 00:08:20,487
"I promise I didn't mean to offend you,

194
00:08:20,556 --> 00:08:22,389
and I hope we can let
bygones be bygones.

195
00:08:22,458 --> 00:08:24,458
It's my dream to have
a career in Washington.

196
00:08:24,526 --> 00:08:27,160
I've worked too hard
to be GFV'ed for this.

197
00:08:27,229 --> 00:08:29,729
I'm not going to tell anyone
what happened.

198
00:08:29,798 --> 00:08:31,331
I hope you can do the same for me."

199
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:32,666
What's "GFV"?

200
00:08:32,734 --> 00:08:34,901
Alisha sent this e-mail
to her boss, Tim Waterbend,

201
00:08:34,970 --> 00:08:37,170
just hours before she was fired.

202
00:08:37,239 --> 00:08:38,438
Metro police on it now, too.

203
00:08:38,507 --> 00:08:39,806
- Good.
- What did you say to them?

204
00:08:39,875 --> 00:08:41,541
I gave them her name,
and they ran a check on her.

205
00:08:41,610 --> 00:08:43,276
Turns out, around the time
Alisha disappeared,

206
00:08:43,345 --> 00:08:46,480
she bought a gun.
That got their attention.

207
00:08:46,548 --> 00:08:48,815
- What'd I miss?
- Take a look.

208
00:08:48,884 --> 00:08:50,317
Alisha lost her job last week.

209
00:08:50,385 --> 00:08:51,885
She sent an e-mail to her boss,

210
00:08:51,954 --> 00:08:55,822
telling him she "wouldn't tell
anyone what happened."

211
00:08:58,093 --> 00:08:59,259
You guys notice the part

212
00:08:59,328 --> 00:09:01,294
where she asks her boss
not to "GFV" her?

213
00:09:01,363 --> 00:09:02,863
Does that mean something to you?

214
00:09:02,931 --> 00:09:04,397
I'm gonna show you something.

215
00:09:04,466 --> 00:09:06,666
They call it the "fresh meat" list.

216
00:09:06,735 --> 00:09:08,902
It's a list of all the
attractive female interns

217
00:09:08,971 --> 00:09:10,504
- on the Hill.
- Oh, a hot list.

218
00:09:12,107 --> 00:09:13,373
What? I didn't invent the term.

219
00:09:13,442 --> 00:09:15,308
That's what we called it
when I was in college.

220
00:09:15,377 --> 00:09:17,043
You know, before the Internet.

221
00:09:17,112 --> 00:09:18,512
I got sent the link anonymously

222
00:09:18,580 --> 00:09:20,313
when I first started at the White House.

223
00:09:20,382 --> 00:09:22,215
Dudes use their initials
to log "reviews"

224
00:09:22,284 --> 00:09:23,683
for interns they, uh...

225
00:09:23,752 --> 00:09:24,818
We get it.

226
00:09:25,988 --> 00:09:27,754
Still up and running. Unbelievable.

227
00:09:27,823 --> 00:09:29,089
Is Alisha on here?

228
00:09:30,526 --> 00:09:31,526
Bingo.

229
00:09:31,593 --> 00:09:32,792
I still don't understand what...

230
00:09:32,861 --> 00:09:34,027
GFV, like on a menu.

231
00:09:34,096 --> 00:09:36,029
"Gluten-Free Vegan".

232
00:09:36,098 --> 00:09:37,130
Ugh.

233
00:09:38,634 --> 00:09:39,933
It means she won't put out.

234
00:09:40,002 --> 00:09:41,735
And if you're one of the guys
on this list

235
00:09:41,803 --> 00:09:43,503
- and you get her resumé...
- You won't hire her.

236
00:09:43,572 --> 00:09:46,172
TW... Tim Waterbend.

237
00:09:48,844 --> 00:09:50,343
The day after she was fired,

238
00:09:50,412 --> 00:09:52,512
Alisha sent her resumé to 28 openings

239
00:09:52,581 --> 00:09:54,214
via the .gov internal jobs listings.

240
00:09:54,283 --> 00:09:55,815
Guess how many responses she got?

241
00:09:55,884 --> 00:09:57,817
- Ah, don't tell me.
- Zero.

242
00:09:59,721 --> 00:10:02,289
So the gun... you think
she bought it for revenge?

243
00:10:02,357 --> 00:10:04,391
Girl has a dream of working in D.C.,

244
00:10:04,459 --> 00:10:07,460
girl lands coveted internship
at Congressman's office,

245
00:10:07,529 --> 00:10:09,029
Congressman's Chief of Staff fires girl

246
00:10:09,097 --> 00:10:10,263
because she won't sleep with him.

247
00:10:10,332 --> 00:10:11,598
Girl buys gun, girl disappears.

248
00:10:11,667 --> 00:10:13,567
There's only a handful of ways
this story ends.

249
00:10:13,635 --> 00:10:16,536
And none of them are good.

250
00:10:18,507 --> 00:10:20,373
And the Democrats are, well
they haven't even

251
00:10:20,442 --> 00:10:22,108
made clear their precise
issues with the budget.

252
00:10:22,177 --> 00:10:23,777
I think they want us
to go into a shutdown.

253
00:10:23,845 --> 00:10:25,345
Of course they do.

254
00:10:25,414 --> 00:10:27,647
And they'll say it's because we
were unwilling to compromise.

255
00:10:27,716 --> 00:10:29,282
Mm.

256
00:10:29,351 --> 00:10:31,051
How'd you throw it out?

257
00:10:32,220 --> 00:10:35,388
Just stress, I think.

258
00:10:35,457 --> 00:10:38,058
So you want me to talk to some folks?

259
00:10:38,126 --> 00:10:39,426
Would you?

260
00:10:39,494 --> 00:10:41,127
I know how in demand you are right now.

261
00:10:41,196 --> 00:10:43,430
It's just a slow news cycle.

262
00:10:43,498 --> 00:10:45,599
I'd be happy to whip
some Dems into shape.

263
00:10:46,902 --> 00:10:50,537
Cyrus... I'm so glad you're all right.

264
00:10:52,107 --> 00:10:54,174
I wanted to apologize directly for...

265
00:10:54,242 --> 00:10:57,010
Madam President, you have
nothing to apologize for.

266
00:10:57,079 --> 00:10:59,846
If we hadn't regained
control of that plane,

267
00:10:59,915 --> 00:11:02,182
shooting it down would've
been the right decision.

268
00:11:02,250 --> 00:11:03,283
The only decision.

269
00:11:03,352 --> 00:11:05,051
I would've done the same if I were you.

270
00:11:08,123 --> 00:11:09,356
Thank you.

271
00:11:09,424 --> 00:11:10,857
Thank you for understanding.

272
00:11:10,926 --> 00:11:14,060
- You get some rest.
- I will.

273
00:11:14,129 --> 00:11:15,362
And, Cyrus?

274
00:11:15,430 --> 00:11:18,298
We are going to figure out
who hijacked that plane.

275
00:11:18,367 --> 00:11:19,866
There will be justice.

276
00:11:19,935 --> 00:11:21,401
I believe it.

277
00:11:23,777 --> 00:11:26,077
VPs are used to taking a back seat,

278
00:11:26,145 --> 00:11:27,778
but America's put you in the spotlight.

279
00:11:27,847 --> 00:11:30,281
How are you planning to spend
all this new political capital?

280
00:11:30,349 --> 00:11:31,982
I'm focused on one thing...

281
00:11:32,051 --> 00:11:35,086
supporting the agenda of
President Mellie Grant.

282
00:11:35,154 --> 00:11:36,921
This virus they used
to hijack the plane,

283
00:11:36,989 --> 00:11:38,355
there is no way that the NSA

284
00:11:38,424 --> 00:11:40,458
or any other government agency
developed malware

285
00:11:40,526 --> 00:11:41,725
with this much code smell.

286
00:11:41,794 --> 00:11:43,027
Cyrus must've farmed it out.

287
00:11:43,096 --> 00:11:44,829
Which means there's
a money trail. Charlie?

288
00:11:44,897 --> 00:11:46,764
Not his personal account.
No unusual activity.

289
00:11:46,833 --> 00:11:48,732
The assets in Cyrus's blind
trust have not been touched.

290
00:11:48,801 --> 00:11:50,367
Okay, what about secret
off-shore accounts?

291
00:11:50,436 --> 00:11:52,570
I could look into those
and not find anything,

292
00:11:52,638 --> 00:11:54,038
or, you know, we could call it.

293
00:11:54,107 --> 00:11:56,340
Call it? We've been working
on it for like two seconds.

294
00:11:56,409 --> 00:11:58,109
But I've already broken
like seven Federal laws.

295
00:11:58,177 --> 00:11:59,743
Shh! Where's the painting?

296
00:11:59,812 --> 00:12:01,245
- What painting?
- The Cezanne.

297
00:12:01,314 --> 00:12:02,379
"The Boy in the Red Vest".

298
00:12:02,448 --> 00:12:04,048
The one that Fenton Glackland gave him.

299
00:12:04,117 --> 00:12:06,016
- It's not there.
- Glackland gave him a Cezanne?

300
00:12:06,085 --> 00:12:07,618
A real Cezanne? That must be worth...

301
00:12:07,687 --> 00:12:09,386
Enough to hire a hacker to write you

302
00:12:09,455 --> 00:12:11,255
a special Air Force Two hijacking virus.

303
00:12:11,324 --> 00:12:13,057
And to finance whatever comes next.

304
00:12:13,126 --> 00:12:15,092
But you have a contact in
the art underworld, don't you?

305
00:12:15,161 --> 00:12:16,794
All right, I'll give it a shot.

306
00:12:24,370 --> 00:12:26,770
It's something... isn't it?

307
00:12:28,141 --> 00:12:30,441
A shame I won't be able to enjoy it.

308
00:12:30,510 --> 00:12:31,742
I don't follow.

309
00:12:35,548 --> 00:12:37,214
She just met with Abby Whelan.

310
00:12:38,518 --> 00:12:40,885
Olivia Pope is having her
investigate you.

311
00:12:40,953 --> 00:12:42,052
Lonnie...

312
00:12:42,121 --> 00:12:43,787
This is getting too dangerous.

313
00:12:43,856 --> 00:12:46,757
What if... What if she finds
your hacker?

314
00:12:46,826 --> 00:12:48,292
What if she finds me?

315
00:12:48,361 --> 00:12:49,827
You haven't done anything wrong.

316
00:12:49,896 --> 00:12:52,763
You paid me with a Cezanne so
there wouldn't be a money trail.

317
00:12:52,832 --> 00:12:56,100
Don't tell me I haven't done
anything wrong.

318
00:12:56,169 --> 00:12:59,436
John Adams was a farmer who
just wanted to be a good lawyer.

319
00:12:59,505 --> 00:13:01,438
George Washington's greatest wish

320
00:13:01,507 --> 00:13:04,842
was a royal commission
to the British army.

321
00:13:04,911 --> 00:13:07,211
No one sets out to be a revolutionary.

322
00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:10,047
Not at first. Sometimes history
doesn't give you a choice.

323
00:13:10,116 --> 00:13:12,449
The Founding Fathers,
Mr. Vice President?

324
00:13:12,518 --> 00:13:15,019
- Really?
- Why not? They were just men.

325
00:13:15,087 --> 00:13:16,987
Men like us who saw a corrupt system

326
00:13:17,056 --> 00:13:18,722
and had to do something about it.

327
00:13:20,092 --> 00:13:22,593
You've got a job to do.
An important job.

328
00:13:22,662 --> 00:13:24,895
Worry about that.

329
00:13:24,964 --> 00:13:28,165
Let me worry about Olivia Pope.

330
00:13:35,675 --> 00:13:37,608
I'm sorry, I don't know
an Allison Franklin.

331
00:13:37,677 --> 00:13:39,143
Alisha Francis.

332
00:13:39,212 --> 00:13:40,978
She was your intern in your office.

333
00:13:41,047 --> 00:13:42,913
Maybe it would help if you saw
her name in print.

334
00:13:42,982 --> 00:13:45,115
What do you mean?

335
00:13:45,184 --> 00:13:46,483
See? He remembers.

336
00:13:46,552 --> 00:13:48,152
- Where did you get that?
- I don't see how that matters.

337
00:13:48,221 --> 00:13:49,486
All I see is the name of a missing girl

338
00:13:49,555 --> 00:13:50,988
with your initials
stamped right next to it.

339
00:13:51,057 --> 00:13:52,556
Initials?

340
00:13:52,625 --> 00:13:54,592
Please. You don't know what
you're talking about.

341
00:13:54,660 --> 00:13:55,893
Yes, we do, and you know that we do,

342
00:13:55,962 --> 00:13:57,661
which is why you haven't
even glanced at your phone

343
00:13:57,730 --> 00:13:58,796
once in the last thirty seconds,

344
00:13:58,864 --> 00:14:00,297
even though it's been beeping
incessantly.

345
00:14:03,769 --> 00:14:05,002
It's not my fault.

346
00:14:05,071 --> 00:14:06,804
If she didn't want
to play the game, that's on her,

347
00:14:06,872 --> 00:14:09,607
- but I'm not responsible...
- Not responsible?

348
00:14:09,675 --> 00:14:11,742
You ruined a woman's life,
destroyed her career,

349
00:14:11,811 --> 00:14:13,811
because she wouldn't sleep with you.

350
00:14:13,879 --> 00:14:16,046
You think I cared about that?
You have the list.

351
00:14:16,115 --> 00:14:17,748
I'm not hurting here, okay?

352
00:14:17,817 --> 00:14:19,450
But there is a way the game is played.

353
00:14:19,518 --> 00:14:21,485
Everybody knows that. She knows that.

354
00:14:21,554 --> 00:14:23,754
I never told anyone not to hire her,

355
00:14:23,823 --> 00:14:25,589
but if she had made
some better choices...

356
00:14:25,658 --> 00:14:27,958
- Where is she?
- I told you, I don't know.

357
00:14:28,027 --> 00:14:29,293
No, you didn't.

358
00:14:29,362 --> 00:14:30,794
You told me you didn't know her,

359
00:14:30,863 --> 00:14:32,630
and that was a lie,
but you can try to tell me that

360
00:14:32,698 --> 00:14:34,064
now if you want, and I won't believe it,

361
00:14:34,133 --> 00:14:35,399
because I know about the gun.

362
00:14:35,468 --> 00:14:37,735
- What?
- Alisha bought a gun.

363
00:14:37,803 --> 00:14:40,104
And if I had to guess,
I'd say it's because

364
00:14:40,172 --> 00:14:42,806
she knows who's responsible
for screwing up her life.

365
00:14:42,875 --> 00:14:43,941
That's insane.

366
00:14:44,010 --> 00:14:45,843
Maybe, but it's what I would've done.

367
00:14:45,911 --> 00:14:47,344
So, I don't know

368
00:14:47,413 --> 00:14:49,847
if she wanted to hurt you, or if
she just wanted to scare you,

369
00:14:49,915 --> 00:14:52,016
but whatever happened, clearly
it didn't go the way she planned

370
00:14:52,084 --> 00:14:53,084
because you're still here

371
00:14:53,109 --> 00:14:54,485
and she's not...

372
00:14:54,553 --> 00:14:56,620
which, as far as I'm concerned,
is the injustice of the century.

373
00:14:56,689 --> 00:14:58,389
And for the love of God,
would you just put your phone

374
00:14:58,457 --> 00:14:59,490
on vibrate like a normal person!

375
00:14:59,558 --> 00:15:00,724
Liv.

376
00:15:00,793 --> 00:15:02,293
It's not his.

377
00:15:02,361 --> 00:15:03,594
It's mine.

378
00:15:14,807 --> 00:15:19,276
So, Waterbend's not just
a sleaze, he's a murderer.

379
00:15:19,345 --> 00:15:22,146
Do they think he used
her own gun against her...

380
00:15:22,214 --> 00:15:23,247
He didn't kill her.

381
00:15:23,316 --> 00:15:24,615
Excuse me?

382
00:15:24,684 --> 00:15:26,884
It was suicide, Liv.
That's why she bought the gun.

383
00:15:28,754 --> 00:15:31,021
She killed herself.

384
00:15:41,033 --> 00:15:45,235
She just, uh...

385
00:15:45,304 --> 00:15:47,905
never said anything.

386
00:15:47,973 --> 00:15:51,909
And do something like this,
hurt herself in this way...

387
00:15:53,479 --> 00:15:55,212
She could've talked to me.

388
00:15:56,749 --> 00:15:59,483
To think that she felt so alone.

389
00:16:02,588 --> 00:16:04,621
This town...

390
00:16:04,690 --> 00:16:06,857
these monsters.

391
00:16:09,862 --> 00:16:12,229
And you.

392
00:16:13,299 --> 00:16:15,733
You think I don't know
who you really are?

393
00:16:15,801 --> 00:16:17,701
I watch the news.

394
00:16:17,770 --> 00:16:22,005
I know about your...
relationship with Grant.

395
00:16:22,074 --> 00:16:26,310
Oh, you're at the top of the heap,

396
00:16:26,379 --> 00:16:29,980
and everyone knows who
you screwed to get there.

397
00:16:30,049 --> 00:16:33,050
Gary... I understand
that you're hurting,

398
00:16:33,119 --> 00:16:34,184
but that's not...

399
00:16:34,253 --> 00:16:36,453
She was here because of you.

400
00:16:36,522 --> 00:16:39,890
But you are not a role model.

401
00:16:39,959 --> 00:16:42,493
But my daughter couldn't see that.

402
00:16:42,561 --> 00:16:46,296
She couldn't see
how disgusting this place is,

403
00:16:46,365 --> 00:16:48,932
and how you fit right in.

404
00:16:49,001 --> 00:16:50,834
Because she was good.

405
00:16:50,903 --> 00:16:53,470
She was a good person.

406
00:16:53,539 --> 00:16:55,439
She was better than you...

407
00:16:57,777 --> 00:17:00,377
...and she wouldn't play this sick game.

408
00:17:00,446 --> 00:17:02,980
And she died because of it.

409
00:17:03,048 --> 00:17:08,085
She followed you into the swamp,
and it sucked her under.

410
00:17:16,835 --> 00:17:18,434
We can't just let this go.
Alisha deserves justice.

411
00:17:18,503 --> 00:17:19,669
Waterbend might not have killed her,

412
00:17:19,738 --> 00:17:21,737
but he's not innocent.
We have to do something.

413
00:17:21,806 --> 00:17:23,839
We have to do something for
every woman on this list.

414
00:17:23,908 --> 00:17:27,076
Behavior like this is allowed to fester
because those in power allow it to.

415
00:17:27,145 --> 00:17:29,012
I'm here, yes. Absolutely, I'll
take any time you can give me.

416
00:17:29,049 --> 00:17:31,964
- Yes, and?
- And so maybe I talk to their bosses.

417
00:17:31,982 --> 00:17:34,550
- You're kidding.
- I'm not.

418
00:17:34,618 --> 00:17:37,586
This town is one big, endless frat party

419
00:17:37,655 --> 00:17:38,987
with zero accountability.

420
00:17:39,056 --> 00:17:40,823
Don't tell me their bosses,
men of your generation,

421
00:17:40,891 --> 00:17:42,624
are any better,
and what moral high ground

422
00:17:42,693 --> 00:17:44,059
do you think you have, anyway?

423
00:17:44,128 --> 00:17:45,427
I'm on the books.

424
00:17:45,496 --> 00:17:47,429
Talked my way into 15 minutes
with the President.

425
00:17:47,498 --> 00:17:49,598
If we can get her
to consider legislation...

426
00:17:49,667 --> 00:17:52,167
That'd be great for the future,
but it won't do much

427
00:17:52,236 --> 00:17:54,269
for the problem
in front of us right now.

428
00:17:54,338 --> 00:17:56,105
This shouldn't be that difficult.

429
00:17:56,173 --> 00:17:58,941
We have a list that proves
these men abused their power.

430
00:17:59,009 --> 00:18:01,143
Shouldn't this be enough
of a smoking gun on its own?

431
00:18:01,212 --> 00:18:02,511
It should be, but it isn't.

432
00:18:16,627 --> 00:18:18,594
What is it?

433
00:18:21,065 --> 00:18:23,198
Your name is on the list, too.

434
00:18:23,267 --> 00:18:25,367
T.W. ranked you a "Prime Rib".

435
00:18:25,436 --> 00:18:27,803
I assume that's Tim Waterbend?

436
00:18:28,267 --> 00:18:32,552
Meghan, when Tim Waterbend
took you to dinner last month,

437
00:18:32,587 --> 00:18:34,905
did he make it explicit
that you wouldn't be hired

438
00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:36,787
unless you slept with him?

439
00:18:39,778 --> 00:18:41,411
I'd had a couple drinks.

440
00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:44,714
I figured it'd be easier
to just put up with it.

441
00:18:44,783 --> 00:18:46,116
You know these guys.

442
00:18:46,185 --> 00:18:49,586
If you reject them, they get
so... butt-hurt about it.

443
00:18:49,655 --> 00:18:50,954
I know exactly.

444
00:18:50,956 --> 00:18:53,490
Because this rejected man...
your boss...

445
00:18:53,559 --> 00:18:54,858
used the fresh meat list

446
00:18:54,927 --> 00:18:57,160
to make sure Alisha would never
work in Washington again.

447
00:18:57,229 --> 00:18:58,929
Because she wouldn't sleep with him?!

448
00:18:58,997 --> 00:19:01,665
The good news is we can use
this list to build a case

449
00:19:01,734 --> 00:19:03,400
against the man who fired her.

450
00:19:03,469 --> 00:19:05,736
But it would help
if some of the other women

451
00:19:05,804 --> 00:19:07,437
whose names appear on the list

452
00:19:07,506 --> 00:19:10,307
were willing to corroborate
these kinds of details.

453
00:19:12,010 --> 00:19:14,811
You want me to out this pig as a pig.

454
00:19:16,315 --> 00:19:17,848
Ruin his career.

455
00:19:17,916 --> 00:19:20,117
But what happens to my career?

456
00:19:20,185 --> 00:19:22,319
I don't know.
But at least, unlike Alisha,

457
00:19:22,387 --> 00:19:23,920
you'll still have your life.

458
00:19:23,989 --> 00:19:26,690
If nobody finds the courage
to take these men on,

459
00:19:26,759 --> 00:19:29,693
they're just gonna keep doing
what they've been doing.

460
00:19:34,333 --> 00:19:36,459
Even more disturbing
than what's in that folder

461
00:19:36,602 --> 00:19:37,814
is what happens to staffers on the Hill

462
00:19:38,570 --> 00:19:40,519
when they try to report
workplace harassment

463
00:19:40,539 --> 00:19:42,369
- to her or his boss.
- Oh, I know.

464
00:19:42,441 --> 00:19:44,282
When I was a Senator, every
female knew it by heart.

465
00:19:44,309 --> 00:19:46,108
30 days counseling, 30 days mediation,

466
00:19:46,177 --> 00:19:48,917
meaning confrontations
with your harasser

467
00:19:48,952 --> 00:19:51,106
and not-so-veiled threats
by your harasser

468
00:19:51,141 --> 00:19:53,295
and their very powerful
legal defense team.

469
00:19:53,330 --> 00:19:55,523
The odds are immediately
stacked against you.

470
00:19:55,558 --> 00:19:58,020
And if you're a woman of color? Mm.

471
00:19:58,737 --> 00:20:01,337
All that's left for these women
is a non-disclosure agreement,

472
00:20:01,406 --> 00:20:02,872
a ruined career, and then it's...

473
00:20:02,941 --> 00:20:05,141
- Back to business as usual.
- Yes.

474
00:20:05,210 --> 00:20:07,911
We have to do something
about this, Madam President.

475
00:20:07,979 --> 00:20:09,913
The way to truly prevent harassment

476
00:20:09,981 --> 00:20:13,082
is to incorporate a punitive
clause into any new legislation.

477
00:20:13,151 --> 00:20:14,551
That's great.

478
00:20:14,619 --> 00:20:17,754
Well, ideally
it's great, but realistically?

479
00:20:17,823 --> 00:20:20,156
You're asking me to propose a
bill that would punish

480
00:20:20,225 --> 00:20:22,392
many of the lawmakers
who would need to pass it.

481
00:20:22,460 --> 00:20:25,595
They would scour that bill
and find enough flaws

482
00:20:25,664 --> 00:20:27,664
that it would never even
make it to my desk.

483
00:20:27,732 --> 00:20:29,165
What about an executive order?

484
00:20:29,234 --> 00:20:31,801
Congress would insinuate
that I was abusing my power

485
00:20:31,870 --> 00:20:33,403
for a personal cause.

486
00:20:33,471 --> 00:20:36,139
I can't do it.

487
00:20:39,377 --> 00:20:41,845
You can't, or you don't want to?

488
00:20:43,148 --> 00:20:44,218
Marcus...

489
00:20:44,314 --> 00:20:45,548
Come on, there's got
to be a way for us to...

490
00:20:45,617 --> 00:20:47,550
I'm sure there is a way.
This just may not be it.

491
00:20:47,619 --> 00:20:49,052
Maybe you don't want to put
forth the effort

492
00:20:49,120 --> 00:20:50,587
- to make it happen.
- Just because you are not

493
00:20:50,655 --> 00:20:52,288
getting what you want,
don't accuse me...

494
00:20:52,357 --> 00:20:54,657
Oh, Mellie, when it comes to
you, I never get what I want.

495
00:21:07,906 --> 00:21:10,039
Thank you for coming, Marcus.

496
00:21:12,677 --> 00:21:16,346
I will take your proposal
into consideration.

497
00:21:39,938 --> 00:21:41,170
What's so funny?

498
00:21:41,239 --> 00:21:43,573
Cyrus sent me a thing. Look.

499
00:21:43,642 --> 00:21:46,309
- Cyrus Beene bobbleheads.
- You guys are texting?

500
00:21:46,378 --> 00:21:48,711
On and off. Is that my lo mein?

501
00:21:48,780 --> 00:21:50,546
Hey, you don't have anything to do

502
00:21:50,615 --> 00:21:53,283
with this pervy spreadsheet
that's going around, do you?

503
00:21:53,351 --> 00:21:54,684
Pervy spreadsheet?

504
00:21:54,753 --> 00:21:57,520
There's a list going around
Congress ranking female interns.

505
00:21:57,589 --> 00:21:59,122
Some girl killed herself over it.

506
00:21:59,190 --> 00:22:01,424
I think Liv's working with
the dad to sort it out.

507
00:22:01,493 --> 00:22:04,427
So, you and Cyrus, you guys
are like friends now?

508
00:22:04,496 --> 00:22:06,829
Brothers in arms, Abby.
We cheated death together.

509
00:22:06,898 --> 00:22:08,765
Has he been asking
about the investigation?

510
00:22:08,833 --> 00:22:10,379
- What do you mean?
- Like whether or not you

511
00:22:10,414 --> 00:22:11,684
guys have any suspects,
that kind of thing.

512
00:22:11,913 --> 00:22:13,937
Not really. Even if he did,
I wouldn't know anything.

513
00:22:14,005 --> 00:22:15,939
You're the Attorney General
of the United States.

514
00:22:16,007 --> 00:22:17,974
That's correct. But in the case
of the hijacking,

515
00:22:18,043 --> 00:22:20,009
I'm also a witness.
It's a conflict of interest.

516
00:22:20,078 --> 00:22:22,345
- You recused yourself?
- I had to.

517
00:22:22,414 --> 00:22:24,614
- Recused himself?
- He's a potential witness.

518
00:22:24,683 --> 00:22:26,282
Conflicting out David could have been

519
00:22:26,351 --> 00:22:27,984
part of Cyrus' plan from the beginning.

520
00:22:28,053 --> 00:22:30,053
- What'd you get from Lola?
- Lola was a dead end,

521
00:22:30,121 --> 00:22:31,487
but she does have a Chagall available

522
00:22:31,556 --> 00:22:33,189
if anyone's got a couple million
lying around.

523
00:22:33,258 --> 00:22:34,857
Was there anything on the dark net?

524
00:22:34,926 --> 00:22:37,493
Nope, and I haven't had any luck
tying Cyrus to the malware.

525
00:22:38,930 --> 00:22:40,063
Hmm.

526
00:22:40,131 --> 00:22:41,531
Is that a good "hmm" or a bad "hmm"?

527
00:22:41,599 --> 00:22:43,566
Could be nothing, but I just
found a draft of his speech

528
00:22:43,635 --> 00:22:45,301
for the Al Smith dinner
on Cyrus' computer.

529
00:22:45,370 --> 00:22:47,103
The Al Smith dinner?
That was the same day

530
00:22:47,172 --> 00:22:48,471
- Air Force Two was hijacked.
- Hold up.

531
00:22:48,540 --> 00:22:50,340
Didn't you say that he asked
to go to that pirate summit?

532
00:22:50,408 --> 00:22:51,507
Why would he waste his time

533
00:22:51,576 --> 00:22:52,675
writing a speech for this other thing?

534
00:22:52,744 --> 00:22:54,143
According to his calendar's metadata,

535
00:22:54,212 --> 00:22:56,145
he was supposed to go to
the Al Smith dinner last night,

536
00:22:56,214 --> 00:22:57,747
and the summit was dumped
on him last-minute.

537
00:22:57,816 --> 00:22:59,282
All right, so let me get this straight.

538
00:22:59,351 --> 00:23:01,017
We can't prove that Cyrus
sold the painting,

539
00:23:01,086 --> 00:23:03,252
we can't tie him to the virus,
and he wasn't even supposed to

540
00:23:03,321 --> 00:23:04,754
be on the plane when it all went down.

541
00:23:04,823 --> 00:23:06,789
So tell me again why we're
wasting our time with this?

542
00:23:06,858 --> 00:23:08,691
I hate to admit it, Abby,
but Charlie's right.

543
00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:10,259
- Thank you?
- Did David say anything else

544
00:23:10,328 --> 00:23:12,462
that could be helpful to us?

545
00:23:16,334 --> 00:23:17,916
It wasn't David.

546
00:23:17,941 --> 00:23:19,492
- It was Liv.
- Liv?

547
00:23:19,517 --> 00:23:21,771
She said he all but admitted it to her.

548
00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:23,039
- Liv said?
- I'm sorry, but...

549
00:23:23,108 --> 00:23:24,273
- Shut it down!
- You wouldn't have

550
00:23:24,342 --> 00:23:25,975
gone along with it
if I had told you the truth.

551
00:23:26,044 --> 00:23:27,443
We're done! Take the board down now.

552
00:23:27,512 --> 00:23:30,246
I know I messed up. I know.
But this is not about Liv.

553
00:23:30,315 --> 00:23:31,614
Of course it is!

554
00:23:31,683 --> 00:23:33,783
Everything Olivia Pope does
is about Olivia Pope.

555
00:23:33,852 --> 00:23:34,984
She used you, Abby.

556
00:23:35,053 --> 00:23:36,619
David almost died on that plane.

557
00:23:36,688 --> 00:23:38,221
And I almost died in a basement.

558
00:23:38,289 --> 00:23:39,889
I am not going down another rabbit hole

559
00:23:39,958 --> 00:23:41,724
that could end with one of us
actually dead.

560
00:23:41,793 --> 00:23:43,059
Not for Olivia, not anymore.

561
00:23:50,735 --> 00:23:52,502
Cyrus did good with Mais and Regnier,

562
00:23:52,570 --> 00:23:55,238
but Stowell and Clinesmith
and a few others aren't budging.

563
00:23:55,306 --> 00:23:57,040
If we don't make some changes
to the budget,

564
00:23:57,108 --> 00:23:58,174
a shutdown is inevitable.

565
00:23:58,243 --> 00:23:59,475
So much for getting an early night.

566
00:23:59,544 --> 00:24:01,044
Oh. Mm.

567
00:24:03,114 --> 00:24:04,414
We'll make it fun.

568
00:24:04,482 --> 00:24:05,648
- Fun?
- Yeah.

569
00:24:05,717 --> 00:24:07,717
We'll have the kitchen
make us some fried chicken,

570
00:24:07,786 --> 00:24:09,185
get you a hot pad for your back,

571
00:24:09,254 --> 00:24:11,421
and delve into the finer points
of corporate tax law.

572
00:24:11,489 --> 00:24:13,856
I think you and I have very
different ideas about fun.

573
00:24:13,925 --> 00:24:15,858
Oh, tell me, what would you
rather focus on

574
00:24:15,927 --> 00:24:18,461
than exemptions and deductions
and discretionary spending?

575
00:24:18,530 --> 00:24:20,797
Actually...

576
00:24:20,865 --> 00:24:23,466
since you asked...

577
00:24:23,535 --> 00:24:26,302
I'm thinking of introducing legislation

578
00:24:26,371 --> 00:24:28,571
addressing how this country
handles sexual harassment

579
00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:30,706
in the workplace,
starting right here on the Hill.

580
00:24:32,744 --> 00:24:34,544
It's good. Important.

581
00:24:35,780 --> 00:24:37,180
The Democrats will vote for it,

582
00:24:37,248 --> 00:24:38,948
and then they'll hold it over your head

583
00:24:39,017 --> 00:24:40,583
when you try to push
this budget through,

584
00:24:40,652 --> 00:24:42,285
forcing you to make
all kinds of compromises

585
00:24:42,353 --> 00:24:44,320
because, hey, they went along
with your harassment bill

586
00:24:44,389 --> 00:24:45,788
even though they wanted it all along.

587
00:24:45,857 --> 00:24:47,023
And then there's the Republicans...

588
00:24:47,092 --> 00:24:48,925
- But if we wait...
- If we wait...

589
00:24:48,993 --> 00:24:50,860
it'll be an easy sell.

590
00:24:50,929 --> 00:24:53,162
Tackle it in a few months...

591
00:24:53,231 --> 00:24:55,331
once this budget's been safely passed.

592
00:25:01,406 --> 00:25:04,874
Rachel...
we're gonna need fried chicken.

593
00:25:20,258 --> 00:25:21,624
You have news?

594
00:25:22,727 --> 00:25:26,262
Not about Cyrus, though...
about the team.

595
00:25:26,331 --> 00:25:30,766
They know that it was you
who put me on this.

596
00:25:33,004 --> 00:25:34,470
And?

597
00:25:34,539 --> 00:25:37,540
We're dropping the investigation.

598
00:25:37,609 --> 00:25:39,942
I couldn't keep lying to them, Liv.

599
00:25:40,011 --> 00:25:42,712
They're my friends.

600
00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:51,621
I hear you're working
a case on the Hill.

601
00:25:51,689 --> 00:25:53,489
How's that going?

602
00:25:56,261 --> 00:25:58,494
About as well as this one.

603
00:26:06,204 --> 00:26:09,305
He's guilty, Abby.

604
00:26:09,374 --> 00:26:11,674
Cyrus did this.

605
00:26:11,743 --> 00:26:14,443
You may be right...

606
00:26:14,512 --> 00:26:17,647
but it can't be us who proves it.

607
00:26:39,458 --> 00:26:41,258
What if we put a guarantee

608
00:26:41,327 --> 00:26:43,994
on the funding
for the Vet Affairs program?

609
00:26:44,063 --> 00:26:45,796
Stowell and Clinesmith have been pushing

610
00:26:45,864 --> 00:26:47,431
that vet assistance bill
for months in committee.

611
00:26:47,500 --> 00:26:49,633
You guarantee funding, they'll
owe you their votes, plus some.

612
00:26:49,702 --> 00:26:52,536
Ah! Two down! Two glasses
of hooch coming up!

613
00:26:52,605 --> 00:26:53,871
Oh.

614
00:26:57,543 --> 00:26:58,842
You okay?

615
00:27:00,179 --> 00:27:01,478
She will be after some hooch.

616
00:27:01,547 --> 00:27:04,515
- And throw me the tennis ball, too?
- Yep.

617
00:27:04,584 --> 00:27:05,916
Here.

618
00:27:07,353 --> 00:27:08,686
Ohh.

619
00:27:15,061 --> 00:27:16,894
All right.

620
00:27:16,963 --> 00:27:17,963
Oh.

621
00:27:18,030 --> 00:27:19,163
Cheers.

622
00:27:19,232 --> 00:27:20,331
Ah!

623
00:27:35,982 --> 00:27:37,848
You gonna be in fighting shape
to celebrate

624
00:27:37,916 --> 00:27:38,916
when we pass this thing?

625
00:27:38,985 --> 00:27:40,384
I hope so.

626
00:27:40,453 --> 00:27:43,420
If the press gets word that I'm
laid up because of Happy Baby...

627
00:27:43,489 --> 00:27:45,823
I'm sorry. Happy Baby?

628
00:27:45,891 --> 00:27:47,625
It's a pose.

629
00:27:47,693 --> 00:27:49,093
A yoga pose.

630
00:27:49,161 --> 00:27:52,463
I threw my back out doing yoga.

631
00:27:52,531 --> 00:27:55,599
Oh, we are definitely not
telling the press that.

632
00:27:55,668 --> 00:27:57,301
I should've known better!

633
00:27:57,370 --> 00:28:00,304
Presidents don't roll themselves
into pretzels.

634
00:28:00,373 --> 00:28:02,172
They run or play tennis

635
00:28:02,241 --> 00:28:05,142
or some other Western,
accident-free activity.

636
00:28:05,211 --> 00:28:07,144
You think running and
tennis are accident-free?

637
00:28:07,213 --> 00:28:08,312
W-well.

638
00:28:08,381 --> 00:28:10,447
1979, Jimmy Carter tries to run a 10K.

639
00:28:10,516 --> 00:28:13,384
Three miles in, he faints
into the arms of his detail.

640
00:28:13,452 --> 00:28:14,718
Bush Sr...

641
00:28:14,787 --> 00:28:16,453
exhausts himself playing doubles tennis

642
00:28:16,522 --> 00:28:18,055
with the Japanese prime minister...

643
00:28:18,124 --> 00:28:19,423
which he loses, by the way...

644
00:28:19,492 --> 00:28:20,658
and then a few hours later,

645
00:28:20,726 --> 00:28:22,326
he hurls his dinner into the guy's lap.

646
00:28:22,395 --> 00:28:23,727
In front of all the press.

647
00:28:23,796 --> 00:28:26,330
No, no more,
no more! It hurts, it hurts!

648
00:28:26,399 --> 00:28:28,599
So you're doing just fine
with your Happy Baby.

649
00:28:29,935 --> 00:28:32,469
Oh!

650
00:28:33,606 --> 00:28:34,972
We make a good team, you and me.

651
00:28:35,041 --> 00:28:36,940
Yeah.

652
00:29:00,132 --> 00:29:01,231
Jake, I...

653
00:29:01,300 --> 00:29:02,733
Mellie, I, uh...

654
00:29:02,802 --> 00:29:06,870
I...

655
00:29:06,939 --> 00:29:09,139
I think you should go.

656
00:29:18,117 --> 00:29:19,383
You need me to help you?

657
00:29:19,452 --> 00:29:21,452
Um... I'm fine.

658
00:29:26,892 --> 00:29:28,392
Good night, Madam President.

659
00:29:42,541 --> 00:29:44,074
I was thinking
about grabbing some sandwiches

660
00:29:44,143 --> 00:29:45,309
from the deli up the block. You want?

661
00:29:45,378 --> 00:29:46,543
Uh, yeah.

662
00:29:46,612 --> 00:29:48,245
What're you working on over there?

663
00:29:48,314 --> 00:29:49,646
Nothing.

664
00:29:49,715 --> 00:29:52,850
You are not still screwing
around with that virus.

665
00:29:52,918 --> 00:29:54,284
Quinn told us to drop that.

666
00:29:54,353 --> 00:29:58,589
I know. But it feels wrong to drop it.

667
00:29:58,657 --> 00:29:59,957
What if the old Liv is back?

668
00:30:00,025 --> 00:30:01,392
Please.

669
00:30:01,460 --> 00:30:02,926
You've seen what she's been doing

670
00:30:02,995 --> 00:30:04,328
since she left the White House.

671
00:30:04,397 --> 00:30:06,063
Maybe she's... maybe she's coming back.

672
00:30:06,132 --> 00:30:07,831
The old Liv is dead!

673
00:30:09,201 --> 00:30:11,368
There's no coming back
after what she's done.

674
00:30:11,437 --> 00:30:14,071
No resurrection and
life-everlasting hallelujah.

675
00:30:14,140 --> 00:30:16,299
- Maybe she's try...
- The only thing that matters to Liv

676
00:30:16,388 --> 00:30:17,674
is the White House.

677
00:30:17,743 --> 00:30:19,576
She doesn't care about justice.

678
00:30:19,645 --> 00:30:22,346
All she cares about is getting
back on Mellie's good side.

679
00:30:22,415 --> 00:30:23,480
I'm not working for Liv,

680
00:30:23,549 --> 00:30:25,249
and I'm not working for the White House.

681
00:30:25,317 --> 00:30:28,552
As far as I'm concerned,
the whole thing can burn.

682
00:30:42,134 --> 00:30:44,234
You okay?

683
00:30:46,272 --> 00:30:48,172
We just need one...

684
00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:50,507
just one of these women to come forward.

685
00:30:50,576 --> 00:30:51,775
I know.

686
00:30:57,750 --> 00:30:59,683
Hey.

687
00:30:59,752 --> 00:31:02,319
Did I...

688
00:31:02,388 --> 00:31:04,455
when we first met...

689
00:31:04,523 --> 00:31:06,890
- On the campaign trail?
- Yeah.

690
00:31:09,995 --> 00:31:11,528
What about it?

691
00:31:12,898 --> 00:31:14,531
Was I...

692
00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:16,700
What?

693
00:31:16,769 --> 00:31:18,669
I don't know.

694
00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:22,406
Inappropriate?

695
00:31:24,577 --> 00:31:26,977
- You're asking if...
- Yes.

696
00:31:27,046 --> 00:31:28,645
I mean it.

697
00:31:28,714 --> 00:31:30,614
- Really?
- You're asking if you and I...

698
00:31:30,683 --> 00:31:32,549
Did I cross a line?

699
00:31:32,618 --> 00:31:35,552
I just want to know.

700
00:31:41,093 --> 00:31:43,026
No.

701
00:31:44,697 --> 00:31:47,231
That was different.
We crossed that line together.

702
00:31:49,168 --> 00:31:51,001
Do you regret it?

703
00:31:57,510 --> 00:31:59,009
No.

704
00:32:02,014 --> 00:32:04,548
I would cross that line again.

705
00:32:10,389 --> 00:32:13,323
- Look who stopped by.
- Meghan.

706
00:32:13,392 --> 00:32:15,592
Hi.

707
00:32:15,661 --> 00:32:17,794
I'm in.

708
00:32:27,373 --> 00:32:29,039
Um...

709
00:32:34,747 --> 00:32:37,714
I'm here today to talk about the death

710
00:32:37,783 --> 00:32:41,051
of my friend and co-worker,
Alisha Francis.

711
00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:44,087
A week ago, Alisha lost her job.

712
00:32:44,156 --> 00:32:47,124
A few days later,

713
00:32:47,192 --> 00:32:49,726
she took her own life.

714
00:32:49,795 --> 00:32:51,795
Before she was fired,

715
00:32:51,864 --> 00:32:56,066
Alisha made a courageous,
professional choice...

716
00:32:56,135 --> 00:32:59,002
one that, for her...

717
00:33:04,443 --> 00:33:06,209
...ended in tragedy.

718
00:33:06,278 --> 00:33:09,880
Her choice was to decline
to perform sexual favors

719
00:33:09,949 --> 00:33:12,683
for a man who had the power
to help or hurt her

720
00:33:12,751 --> 00:33:14,618
in her chosen career.

721
00:33:16,155 --> 00:33:18,789
He punished her for that choice,

722
00:33:18,857 --> 00:33:21,625
not just with the loss of her job,

723
00:33:21,694 --> 00:33:25,562
but with a devastating assault
on her professional reputation.

724
00:33:25,631 --> 00:33:30,601
If you're asking yourselves
how I know all this,

725
00:33:30,669 --> 00:33:33,437
it's because I had
the same choice to make,

726
00:33:33,505 --> 00:33:35,105
and I chose differently.

727
00:33:35,174 --> 00:33:38,609
I had sex with this man,

728
00:33:38,677 --> 00:33:40,210
and just as he promised,

729
00:33:40,279 --> 00:33:43,180
I was rewarded
with a permanent position.

730
00:33:43,248 --> 00:33:47,117
I don't relish standing
up here to discuss my sex life,

731
00:33:47,186 --> 00:33:50,087
but I see no other way
to expose a culture

732
00:33:50,155 --> 00:33:52,889
where women cannot
succeed on their own merits,

733
00:33:52,958 --> 00:33:56,226
but are instead judged
by their attractiveness

734
00:33:56,295 --> 00:33:58,095
and their sexual compliance.

735
00:33:58,163 --> 00:34:00,764
Ms. Seeley's statement
has prompted an outpouring

736
00:34:00,833 --> 00:34:03,433
of similar stories from
other female Hill staffers...

737
00:34:03,502 --> 00:34:05,836
some dating as far back as the 1980s.

738
00:34:05,904 --> 00:34:08,238
And a group of these women
has even turned the tables

739
00:34:08,307 --> 00:34:10,974
on predatory men,
compiling a counter-list

740
00:34:11,043 --> 00:34:14,044
of D.C.'s worst sexual offenders.

741
00:34:18,350 --> 00:34:20,984
- That was incredible.
- Meghan was very brave.

742
00:34:21,053 --> 00:34:22,686
I told you we only needed one.

743
00:34:22,755 --> 00:34:24,755
Yes, you are very smart.

744
00:34:24,823 --> 00:34:26,657
Would you like your gold star now?

745
00:34:26,725 --> 00:34:29,593
Seriously, I know
there's so much more to do,

746
00:34:29,662 --> 00:34:32,295
and I'm willing to help
in any way I can.

747
00:34:32,364 --> 00:34:34,665
Thank you. I agree.

748
00:34:37,236 --> 00:34:38,969
I'll be in touch.

749
00:34:48,547 --> 00:34:50,747
Don't be a stranger, Olivia Pope.

750
00:34:56,591 --> 00:34:57,757
Thank you.

751
00:35:00,228 --> 00:35:01,994
Madam President.

752
00:35:02,063 --> 00:35:04,030
I'm announcing my intention
later this afternoon

753
00:35:04,099 --> 00:35:06,466
to pursue legislation tackling
workplace sexual harassment.

754
00:35:06,534 --> 00:35:07,967
I thought that you should know.

755
00:35:08,036 --> 00:35:10,503
- I thought we agreed that...
- We didn't agree on anything.

756
00:35:10,572 --> 00:35:12,538
You gave me your opinion,
I had a different one,

757
00:35:12,607 --> 00:35:14,107
which is that you should do your job

758
00:35:14,175 --> 00:35:17,477
and help me both get my budget
and pass my legislation.

759
00:35:17,545 --> 00:35:19,812
Is that something you're capable of?

760
00:35:21,583 --> 00:35:24,083
Madam President, I'd like to
apologize for last night.

761
00:35:24,152 --> 00:35:25,518
Clearly, I misread the situation.

762
00:35:25,587 --> 00:35:27,487
Look, Jake.

763
00:35:28,059 --> 00:35:30,326
It's two things.

764
00:35:30,395 --> 00:35:35,131
One, I am not starting an affair
in the Oval with a subordinate,

765
00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:37,567
which, let me remind you...
despite our friendship,

766
00:35:37,636 --> 00:35:40,403
despite the fact that we make a
"good team"... is what you are.

767
00:35:40,472 --> 00:35:42,205
I will not be another Fitzgerald Grant

768
00:35:42,274 --> 00:35:43,907
and Olivia Pope, nor am I interested

769
00:35:43,975 --> 00:35:46,409
in sleeping with someone
who has slept with Olivia Pope.

770
00:35:46,478 --> 00:35:48,645
I know far too much
about where you've been...

771
00:35:48,713 --> 00:35:50,713
That's two things.
Is there anything else?

772
00:35:50,782 --> 00:35:52,048
Yes, actually.

773
00:35:52,117 --> 00:35:53,950
Three...

774
00:35:54,019 --> 00:35:56,352
if this is some kind of power hunt...

775
00:35:56,421 --> 00:35:59,522
That's where I draw the line.

776
00:35:59,591 --> 00:36:01,999
You may think it's inappropriate
to start something,

777
00:36:02,094 --> 00:36:04,460
you may be uninterested, fine.

778
00:36:04,529 --> 00:36:08,564
But I have plenty of power
without needing

779
00:36:10,001 --> 00:36:12,335
...I made an advance
because I was attracted to you.

780
00:36:12,404 --> 00:36:13,870
Forgive me.

781
00:36:13,939 --> 00:36:16,239
And do you think it's lost on me

782
00:36:16,308 --> 00:36:17,840
that this is the week

783
00:36:17,909 --> 00:36:19,976
that you suddenly find yourself
attracted to me,

784
00:36:20,045 --> 00:36:21,945
of all the weeks that we have
known each other?

785
00:36:22,013 --> 00:36:23,880
The one week I need a little extra help,

786
00:36:23,949 --> 00:36:26,549
the one week that I'm a damsel
in distress...

787
00:36:26,618 --> 00:36:29,252
A damsel in... I was attracted
to you because it felt good,

788
00:36:29,321 --> 00:36:30,653
us working together.

789
00:36:30,722 --> 00:36:32,755
And when you and Fitz had a good
week working together,

790
00:36:32,824 --> 00:36:34,123
did you hold his hand, too?

791
00:36:36,194 --> 00:36:38,161
I hope you get well soon,
Madam President.

792
00:36:43,780 --> 00:36:46,114
As Washington continues
to reel from recent reports

793
00:36:46,183 --> 00:36:47,983
of widespread sexual misconduct,

794
00:36:48,051 --> 00:36:50,185
President Mellie Grant has
announced her intentions

795
00:36:50,254 --> 00:36:52,153
of attacking this problem
on a national level.

796
00:36:52,222 --> 00:36:54,189
Analysts consider the President's move

797
00:36:54,258 --> 00:36:55,624
to be particularly bold

798
00:36:55,692 --> 00:36:57,993
in that she risks
losing support she needs

799
00:36:58,061 --> 00:37:00,762
in order to push along
an already-embattled budget.

800
00:37:03,100 --> 00:37:05,133
Hi.

801
00:37:05,202 --> 00:37:07,469
Come in.

802
00:37:09,172 --> 00:37:13,642
I just wanted to tell you that
I saw the press conference.

803
00:37:13,710 --> 00:37:15,644
It was good.

804
00:37:15,712 --> 00:37:17,279
Great.

805
00:37:19,249 --> 00:37:20,582
Thanks.

806
00:37:23,687 --> 00:37:27,355
I guess I could've called,
but after all of...

807
00:37:27,424 --> 00:37:32,060
I thought maybe you wouldn't pick up.

808
00:37:32,129 --> 00:37:34,029
I would've.

809
00:37:42,139 --> 00:37:44,172
I don't blame the team.

810
00:37:45,442 --> 00:37:48,877
I can't because... in the end,

811
00:37:48,946 --> 00:37:51,413
this is not their fight.

812
00:37:53,984 --> 00:37:57,452
It's not Quinn's,
it's not yours, it's mine.

813
00:37:57,521 --> 00:38:01,690
I'm the one who needs to step up
because I made Mellie a promise.

814
00:38:01,758 --> 00:38:02,991
At some point or another,

815
00:38:03,060 --> 00:38:04,926
men would try to strip her of power.

816
00:38:04,995 --> 00:38:08,229
I promised that I wouldn't
stand by and let that happen.

817
00:38:08,298 --> 00:38:14,169
No matter the fallout, no matter
how hard Cyrus pushes back,

818
00:38:14,237 --> 00:38:16,638
I can't let Mellie stand alone.

819
00:38:21,278 --> 00:38:23,878
Well...

820
00:38:23,947 --> 00:38:26,448
I'm in.

821
00:38:26,516 --> 00:38:28,350
Really?

822
00:38:28,418 --> 00:38:30,518
Yeah.

823
00:38:32,055 --> 00:38:35,223
You had me at
dismantling the patriarchy.

824
00:38:37,661 --> 00:38:39,728
Okay.

825
00:38:45,769 --> 00:38:48,536
- Sir.
- Not a good time.

826
00:38:48,605 --> 00:38:49,838
I know who made the virus.

827
00:38:56,713 --> 00:38:58,446
What?

828
00:39:00,584 --> 00:39:03,551
Those are the build time-stamps
embedded in the virus's code.

829
00:39:03,620 --> 00:39:06,187
- Huck.
- It's Charlie's IP address.

830
00:39:06,256 --> 00:39:08,723
The virus was modified from his laptop.

831
00:39:08,792 --> 00:39:11,159
So what? That virus was on
all of our laptops.

832
00:39:11,228 --> 00:39:13,628
Yeah, but he had it the day before

833
00:39:13,697 --> 00:39:15,263
it infected Air Force Two.

834
00:39:15,332 --> 00:39:19,567
What?

835
00:39:19,636 --> 00:39:21,636
This doesn't make any sense.

836
00:39:21,705 --> 00:39:24,305
He was against us looking
into this case from the start

837
00:39:24,374 --> 00:39:26,141
because he knew what we'd find.

838
00:39:26,209 --> 00:39:29,744
He's angry, Quinn. Really, really angry.

839
00:39:34,484 --> 00:39:36,718
There you are. Ready?

840
00:39:36,787 --> 00:39:37,886
What was it?

841
00:39:37,954 --> 00:39:40,555
Some kind of relapse, hmm?

842
00:39:40,624 --> 00:39:42,590
You got bored
working with the good guys?

843
00:39:42,659 --> 00:39:44,092
Slipped back into bad habits?

844
00:39:44,161 --> 00:39:46,127
Couldn't resist
an old-school conspiracy?

845
00:39:46,196 --> 00:39:48,163
I don't know what you're talking about.

846
00:39:48,231 --> 00:39:50,098
Huck traced it. You wrote that virus.

847
00:39:50,167 --> 00:39:51,433
I did not.

848
00:39:51,501 --> 00:39:53,301
You're working with Cyrus again.

849
00:39:53,370 --> 00:39:54,703
I'm not.

850
00:39:54,771 --> 00:39:57,305
You don't think I have had
enough lies for the year?!

851
00:39:57,374 --> 00:39:59,174
Look, I don't know what Huck
found, but the hijacking?

852
00:39:59,242 --> 00:40:00,742
I had nothing to do with it.

853
00:40:00,811 --> 00:40:02,243
Why would I? I'm your fiancé.

854
00:40:02,312 --> 00:40:04,546
The father of your child.
I don't need that stuff anymore.

855
00:40:04,614 --> 00:40:06,448
Then how did that virus
end up on your laptop?

856
00:40:06,516 --> 00:40:09,217
How the hell would I know?
Someone must've put it there!

857
00:40:11,121 --> 00:40:12,854
Wait.

858
00:40:14,424 --> 00:40:15,590
Oh, my God.

859
00:40:15,659 --> 00:40:17,859
We need to get you out of here.

860
00:40:19,896 --> 00:40:21,162
Freeze! Let's see your hands!

861
00:40:21,231 --> 00:40:22,430
- Hands!
- No sudden moves!

862
00:40:22,499 --> 00:40:24,132
Up against the wall.

863
00:40:24,201 --> 00:40:25,667
You get your hands off of him!

864
00:40:25,736 --> 00:40:27,569
Clear over here.

865
00:40:31,441 --> 00:40:33,508
I'm here to announce that Federal Agents

866
00:40:33,577 --> 00:40:35,610
have just completed the arrest
of a suspect

867
00:40:35,679 --> 00:40:38,179
in our investigation of the
hijacking of Air Force Two.

868
00:40:38,248 --> 00:40:40,548
Details will be forthcoming.

869
00:40:40,617 --> 00:40:42,183
As a witness to the hijacking,

870
00:40:42,252 --> 00:40:44,652
I have recused myself
from the investigation.

871
00:40:44,721 --> 00:40:47,222
In my place, the Deputy Attorney General

872
00:40:47,290 --> 00:40:49,224
has appointed as Special Prosecutor

873
00:40:49,292 --> 00:40:52,360
the former U.S. Attorney for the
Eastern District of Virginia,

874
00:40:52,429 --> 00:40:53,762
Lonnie Mencken.

875
00:40:53,830 --> 00:40:56,064
Lonnie's reputation for results

876
00:40:56,133 --> 00:40:58,533
is matched only by his
reputation for integrity,

877
00:40:58,602 --> 00:41:00,769
and I have no doubt
that he'll bring this episode

878
00:41:00,837 --> 00:41:02,971
to its swift and just conclusion.

879
00:41:03,039 --> 00:41:06,107
- Thank you.
