1
00:00:01,167 --> 00:00:03,235
I booked
a hotel suite.
2
00:00:03,237 --> 00:00:04,770
You did what?
3
00:00:04,772 --> 00:00:06,772
It's pretty close
to your apartment.
4
00:00:06,774 --> 00:00:10,009
You could run there,
run back.
5
00:00:10,011 --> 00:00:11,143
Why am I
running there?
6
00:00:11,145 --> 00:00:12,344
Booty calls.
Booty calls?
7
00:00:12,346 --> 00:00:14,613
And I'm running there
for booty calls?
8
00:00:14,615 --> 00:00:18,384
We're back in d.C. We're not
standing in the sun anymore.
9
00:00:18,386 --> 00:00:20,052
I'm not gonna live
in your apartment,
10
00:00:20,054 --> 00:00:23,589
I have things to do.
I'm busy. But...
11
00:00:23,591 --> 00:00:26,325
I did book a nice hotel suite
for booty calls.
Okay, no.
12
00:00:26,327 --> 00:00:28,727
See, we have to have
a conversation about --
13
00:00:28,729 --> 00:00:31,096
I don't do
booty calls, jake.
14
00:00:31,098 --> 00:00:33,665
That right there
refutes your statement.
15
00:00:33,667 --> 00:00:37,169
That right there
is a political booty call.
16
00:00:37,171 --> 00:00:38,637
I'll see you later.
17
00:00:40,373 --> 00:00:41,707
Olivia:
You look good...
18
00:00:41,709 --> 00:00:43,509
Healthy.
19
00:00:43,511 --> 00:00:45,811
I'm a vegetarian now.
20
00:00:45,813 --> 00:00:48,580
[ laughs ]
they took
meat away from me --
21
00:00:48,582 --> 00:00:51,250
The aides, the housekeeper,
my security detail.
22
00:00:51,252 --> 00:00:53,719
They all got together
with the doctors and --
23
00:00:53,721 --> 00:00:57,689
They won't even stop the car
for a drive-through burger.
24
00:00:57,691 --> 00:00:59,458
I'm a prisoner --
fascists.
25
00:00:59,460 --> 00:01:01,527
They care about you.
They want you to live.
26
00:01:01,529 --> 00:01:02,728
Sons of bitches.
27
00:01:04,764 --> 00:01:06,098
You look like crap.
28
00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:09,234
No, I don't.
29
00:01:09,236 --> 00:01:11,236
You could let a person know
you're back in town.
30
00:01:11,238 --> 00:01:12,371
You knew I was here.
31
00:01:12,373 --> 00:01:13,472
You could call a friend.
32
00:01:13,474 --> 00:01:15,140
Are we?
33
00:01:15,142 --> 00:01:17,342
Still friends?
34
00:01:17,344 --> 00:01:18,610
I need a favor.
35
00:01:18,612 --> 00:01:20,345
I don't do favors
for the white house anymore.
36
00:01:20,347 --> 00:01:24,316
Then think of it as less
of a favor, more of a job.
37
00:01:24,318 --> 00:01:28,120
I definitelydon't work
for the white house anymore.
38
00:01:28,122 --> 00:01:30,222
Mm. Thing is...
39
00:01:30,224 --> 00:01:31,290
You already are.
40
00:01:32,293 --> 00:01:34,660
At least, if someone
were to take a look
41
00:01:34,662 --> 00:01:36,228
At your corporate
bank account,
42
00:01:36,230 --> 00:01:38,263
They'd think you were,
because they'd see
43
00:01:38,265 --> 00:01:40,766
That a considerable sum
has been deposited there
44
00:01:40,768 --> 00:01:44,803
By the United States government
for services rendered.
45
00:01:44,805 --> 00:01:46,772
You can't think
I'm above
46
00:01:46,774 --> 00:01:49,575
Calling in
a few favors at the I.R.S.
47
00:01:49,577 --> 00:01:51,443
You're blackmailing me?
48
00:01:51,445 --> 00:01:53,245

James and lisa elliot --
are attending
the state of the union
52
00:01:59,153 --> 00:02:01,753
As the president's
guests of honor --
a living testament
53
00:02:01,755 --> 00:02:03,622
To his newfound commitment
to gun control.
54
00:02:03,624 --> 00:02:05,824
And?
They've missed
two flights from new mexico,
55
00:02:05,826 --> 00:02:07,826
And they're not returning
our calls.
56
00:02:07,828 --> 00:02:09,495
And the state
of the union is --
57
00:02:09,497 --> 00:02:10,796
Is tomorrow night.
Mm-hmm.
58
00:02:14,734 --> 00:02:18,871
Cyrus, you know
I'm not afraid of the I.R.S.
59
00:02:20,773 --> 00:02:23,308
I'll tell him...
60
00:02:23,310 --> 00:02:24,710
You call every day.
61
00:02:25,778 --> 00:02:30,849
I'll tell him you call,
asking about him every day,
62
00:02:30,851 --> 00:02:33,485
That you're pining for him.
63
00:02:35,355 --> 00:02:37,789
Sorry to be
such a bastard, liv.
64
00:02:39,759 --> 00:02:44,763
Craving meat really brings out
the worst in me.
65
00:02:53,706 --> 00:02:55,607
James elliot
is a real, live war hero.
66
00:02:55,609 --> 00:02:57,743
Escaped from
a taliban p.O.W. Camp,
67
00:02:57,745 --> 00:02:59,845
Hiked 27 miles
over the hindu kush mountains,
68
00:02:59,847 --> 00:03:01,680
Without shoes or water,
to reach safety.
69
00:03:01,682 --> 00:03:02,848
A total badass.
Right, huck?
70
00:03:02,850 --> 00:03:04,750
James met lisa
when he came to speak
71
00:03:04,752 --> 00:03:06,818
To her first-grade class
at red hawk elementary
72
00:03:06,820 --> 00:03:08,453
About two years before
the shooting.
73
00:03:08,455 --> 00:03:09,621
All those kids.
74
00:03:09,623 --> 00:03:11,823
Lisa saved
at least 50 lives.
75
00:03:11,825 --> 00:03:14,760
Led five girls trapped
in the line of fire to safety.
76
00:03:14,762 --> 00:03:16,195
46 minutes
after the shooting started,
77
00:03:16,197 --> 00:03:17,396
She took a bullet
to her spine.
78
00:03:17,398 --> 00:03:18,830
Paralyzed her
from the waist down.
79
00:03:18,832 --> 00:03:20,566
He took her to all those
funerals -- how many?
80
00:03:20,568 --> 00:03:23,635

"the angel of the mesa."
81
00:03:23,637 --> 00:03:25,437
Six months after physical
therapy, she was well enough --
82
00:03:25,439 --> 00:03:26,772
For a fairytale wedding.
83
00:03:26,774 --> 00:03:28,740
It was covered worldwide --
they told every reporter
84
00:03:28,742 --> 00:03:30,809
They were dedicating their lives
to getting guns off the street.
85
00:03:30,811 --> 00:03:32,244
And to each other.

They're perfect.

Thank you. I think
we've had enough, right?

gets whatever she wants,

Whenever she wants it --
that's why.
Oh, here we go again.
108
00:04:15,689 --> 00:04:19,391
I'm the bitch
who somehow came up with
109
00:04:19,393 --> 00:04:20,759
The crazy idea
to get shot in the spine.

That wheelchair
made you a star.

00:04:22,696 --> 00:04:24,830
Now, that wheelchair
is your freaking throne.
112

It's like you sit in there
and you rule over your little...

What is your point,
james?

00:04:43,851 --> 00:04:49,755
Let's pause --
I was tortured by the taliban,
and it was better than this.

00:04:49,757 --> 00:04:51,023
The taliban
is better than you!

Just about 30 hours

of the United States of america

Is going to stand up and give
the state of the union address.

He'll be discussing
gun control.
131
00:05:07,841 --> 00:05:09,675
To do that, he needs
to point to the two of you,

Because despite
whatever is happening here,
133

You are the face of gun control
to the american people.
134

So the president needs
your asses in those seats.

Lives depend on it.

Because we're republicans.

You held your tongue

you nominated a democrat

your attorney general.

to keep the party together.

That's the speech.
Why isn't the president here
to defend this himself?
147
00:05:47,681 --> 00:05:50,515
Because he's not at your
beck and call like this one.

00:05:50,517 --> 00:05:51,717
All right.
That is enough.

00:25:29,028 --> 00:25:31,161
Most especially gun control.

[ door slams ]
525
00:25:38,104 --> 00:25:39,670
Good news or the usual?
526
00:25:39,672 --> 00:25:43,073
The elliots won't be attending
the pre-reception,
527
00:25:43,075 --> 00:25:44,775
Which means the cameras
won't catch them
528
00:25:44,777 --> 00:25:46,110
Going into the capitol,
which means that
529
00:25:46,112 --> 00:25:48,546
When the networks do
their intros tonight,
530
00:25:48,548 --> 00:25:50,981
There will be no b-roll
to go along with their stories
531
00:25:50,983 --> 00:25:53,684
Of true love triumphing
over the evil of guns.
532
00:25:53,686 --> 00:25:55,185
They're not gonna show.
533
00:25:55,187 --> 00:25:56,754
Liv's on it.
534
00:25:56,756 --> 00:25:57,888
[ scoffs ]
535
00:25:57,890 --> 00:26:00,591
You're not even
a little concerned?
536
00:26:00,593 --> 00:26:02,192
Oh, I'm concerned.
537
00:26:02,194 --> 00:26:05,029
[ sighs ]
538
00:26:05,031 --> 00:26:07,631
I'm concerned that
fitzgerald grant's second term
539
00:26:07,633 --> 00:26:09,266
As president
of these United States
540
00:26:09,268 --> 00:26:11,201
Is about to be derailed
541
00:26:11,203 --> 00:26:13,938
Because his wife won't stop
eating fried chicken long enough
542
00:26:13,940 --> 00:26:15,639
To put on a cocktail dress.
543
00:26:15,641 --> 00:26:17,141
I'm concerned that
544
00:26:17,143 --> 00:26:19,677
Our enemies are sharpening
their long knives
545
00:26:19,679 --> 00:26:21,345
For the rapidly
approaching moment
546
00:26:21,347 --> 00:26:23,981
When it becomes politically
acceptable to point out
547
00:26:23,983 --> 00:26:26,717
That maybe, just maybe,
the president's home life
548
00:26:26,719 --> 00:26:28,852
Has begun to affect
his decision-making.
549
00:26:28,854 --> 00:26:31,221
I am concerned that
550
00:26:31,223 --> 00:26:35,259
Everything I've devoted
far more of my soul to
551
00:26:35,261 --> 00:26:39,763
Than has ever been right
or healthy or appropriate
552
00:26:39,765 --> 00:26:43,200
Is about to come crashing down
on a 16-year-old's grave.
553
00:26:43,202 --> 00:26:46,804
But, no, I am not concerned
that olivia pope will fail.
554
00:26:46,806 --> 00:26:51,842
I am never concerned
that olivia pope will fail.
555
00:26:51,844 --> 00:26:54,078
The elliots will be
at the state of the union.
556
00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:56,814
Mellie, not so much.
557
00:27:05,824 --> 00:27:07,992
What are you doing?
Why aren't you dressed?
558
00:27:07,994 --> 00:27:09,860
James:
I can't do this anymore.
559
00:27:09,862 --> 00:27:10,828
I'm sorry.
560
00:27:10,830 --> 00:27:12,329
I just can't.
561
00:27:16,835 --> 00:27:18,702
Quinn, open the door.
562
00:27:22,374 --> 00:27:25,976
James, lisa,
what you need is a divorce.
563
00:27:25,978 --> 00:27:27,845
What?
We can't.
564
00:27:27,847 --> 00:27:29,713
You can.
Get a divorce.
565
00:27:29,715 --> 00:27:31,915
Get out before
this kills you both.
566
00:27:31,917 --> 00:27:33,917
You'll have to pay back
the advance
567
00:27:33,919 --> 00:27:36,053
Sell the house,
take the loss.
568
00:27:36,055 --> 00:27:38,656
But I will spin this
for you.
569
00:27:38,658 --> 00:27:40,324
I will make sure that,
when it's over,
570
00:27:40,326 --> 00:27:42,826
Off of individual speaking
engagements.
571
00:27:42,828 --> 00:27:44,795
I will keep
the public on your side --
572
00:27:44,797 --> 00:27:46,130
Both of your sides.
573
00:27:46,132 --> 00:27:48,332
I will give you a way out.
I can do that.
574
00:27:48,334 --> 00:27:50,267
Unless you're only
staying together for the fame,
575
00:27:50,269 --> 00:27:51,802
In which case
you deserve each other
576
00:27:51,804 --> 00:27:53,904
And I wish you both
a long and miserable life.
577
00:28:12,157 --> 00:28:14,925
Mrs. Grant?
578
00:28:18,830 --> 00:28:20,097
Abby: Mrs. Grant?
579
00:28:20,099 --> 00:28:21,865
[ sighs ] I don't know
who you are,
580
00:28:21,867 --> 00:28:23,901
But you are obviously some sort
of desperate hail mary
581
00:28:23,903 --> 00:28:25,269
From my husband
or from cyrus
582
00:28:25,271 --> 00:28:28,172
Who thinks [chuckling]
there is a chance in hell
583
00:28:28,174 --> 00:28:29,940
Of getting me to
put on that stupid dress
584
00:28:29,942 --> 00:28:31,809
And go to
that stupid speech.
585
00:28:31,811 --> 00:28:35,079
I'm not interested in whatever
it is you came here to say,
586
00:28:35,081 --> 00:28:37,347
So save it and go away.
587
00:28:37,349 --> 00:28:39,249
It's not happening.
588
00:28:46,458 --> 00:28:48,258
Children die, mrs. Grant.
589
00:28:48,260 --> 00:28:49,860
I don't have children,
590
00:28:49,862 --> 00:28:51,862
So you may think it's horrible
for me to say that,
591
00:28:51,864 --> 00:28:53,497
And maybe it is,
but it's also a fact
592
00:28:53,499 --> 00:28:55,132
That of all
the millions of americans
593
00:28:55,134 --> 00:28:56,800
Who will be watching
and listening to
594
00:28:56,802 --> 00:28:58,502
The state of the union address
tonight,
595
00:28:58,504 --> 00:28:59,870
There are thousands
of people out there
596
00:28:59,872 --> 00:29:00,971
Whose children have died,
597
00:29:00,973 --> 00:29:02,339
Just like yours.
598
00:29:02,341 --> 00:29:06,210
Flipping through trash
and eating potato chips.
599
00:29:06,212 --> 00:29:07,945
They got
three days to grieve --
600
00:29:07,947 --> 00:29:09,313
Three weeks
if they were lucky --
601
00:29:09,315 --> 00:29:10,781
Or they would
lose their jobs.
602
00:29:10,783 --> 00:29:13,851
And make no mistake,
mrs. Grant, you have a job.
603
00:29:13,853 --> 00:29:15,886
You're the first lady
of the United States,
604
00:29:15,888 --> 00:29:17,855
And it might not pay,
but it is a job.
605
00:29:17,857 --> 00:29:19,957
And if jackie kennedy
could be in a car
606
00:29:19,959 --> 00:29:21,225
With her husband's brains
607
00:29:21,227 --> 00:29:23,093
Splattered
across her lap one minute
608
00:29:23,095 --> 00:29:24,428
And standing next to l.B.J.
609
00:29:24,430 --> 00:29:26,930
As he was sworn in
to replace her dead husband
610
00:29:26,932 --> 00:29:28,432
Just 99 minutes later,
611
00:29:28,434 --> 00:29:31,468
You can put on a dress
and stand in your private box
612
00:29:31,470 --> 00:29:33,504
And show all the people
in our nation
613
00:29:33,506 --> 00:29:36,373
Who share the horrible burden
of losing a child with you
614
00:29:36,375 --> 00:29:38,842
That the first family
may be devastated,
615
00:29:38,844 --> 00:29:41,145
But it has not forgotten
the american people
616
00:29:41,147 --> 00:29:43,781
And who need to see
that you're okay,
617
00:29:43,783 --> 00:29:45,849
Whether or not
it's the truth.
618
00:29:53,958 --> 00:29:56,026
That is what
I came here to say.
619
00:29:58,563 --> 00:30:00,831
A-and
I'll let myself out.
620
00:30:09,875 --> 00:30:13,944
From here an aide will take you
to your seats.
621
00:30:13,946 --> 00:30:16,146
This is the finish line.
622
00:30:19,083 --> 00:30:22,019
Sorry, ma'am.
Gonna need you to stay put.
623
00:30:27,292 --> 00:30:28,292
Mr. President.

Olivia.
Hi, liv.
626
00:30:31,931 --> 00:30:33,997
This is
james and lisa elliot.
627
00:30:33,999 --> 00:30:36,500
Fitz: Thank you both so much for
your service to your country.
628
00:30:36,502 --> 00:30:41,171
Mr. And mrs. Elliot,
I'll take you to your seats.
629
00:30:50,982 --> 00:30:52,049
Well.
630
00:30:52,051 --> 00:30:53,483
Well.
631
00:30:53,485 --> 00:30:54,618
Thank you
for the elliots.
632
00:30:54,620 --> 00:30:56,887
Not a problem.
633
00:30:56,889 --> 00:30:58,088
Ms. Whelan, we need
the president's final remarks
634
00:30:58,090 --> 00:30:59,156
For the teleprompter.
635
00:30:59,158 --> 00:31:00,424
Got them right here.
636
00:31:00,426 --> 00:31:03,260
No.
Wait just a second.
637
00:31:03,262 --> 00:31:04,595
Can ms. Pope and I
have the room?
638
00:31:04,597 --> 00:31:06,029
That is not necessary.
639
00:31:06,031 --> 00:31:07,464
Can ms. Pope and I
have the room?
640
00:31:18,343 --> 00:31:20,310
That was not a good idea.
641
00:31:20,312 --> 00:31:21,478
Gabby will be fine.
642
00:31:24,082 --> 00:31:25,949
I need to hear
what you think.
643
00:31:25,951 --> 00:31:28,986
Before I go out there
and talk to the country,
644
00:31:28,988 --> 00:31:30,621
I need to know
what you think.
645
00:31:30,623 --> 00:31:32,289
No.
646
00:31:34,425 --> 00:31:37,928
Don't you think you owe me
at least this much?
647
00:31:40,999 --> 00:31:44,601
Man: Mr. Speaker, the president
of the United States!
648
00:31:44,603 --> 00:31:49,439
[ cheers and applause ]
649
00:31:49,441 --> 00:31:53,610
Fitz:
We honor the lives we've lost
in service to this great nation.
650
00:31:53,612 --> 00:31:55,178
[ applause ]
651
00:31:57,682 --> 00:32:01,418
But not every death
is a sacrifice.
652
00:32:01,420 --> 00:32:04,521
Not every death has meaning.
653
00:32:04,523 --> 00:32:07,291
Just ask lisa elliot,
654
00:32:07,293 --> 00:32:10,193
Who scooped up a first grader
named joelle brandt
655
00:32:10,195 --> 00:32:11,628
And carried her to safety,
656
00:32:11,630 --> 00:32:13,964
Only to watch her die
657
00:32:13,966 --> 00:32:18,702
From one of the 102 rounds
unloaded at red hawk elementary.
658
00:32:31,649 --> 00:32:34,985
I wasn't planning on
talking about this tonight.
659
00:32:34,987 --> 00:32:36,453
It's fine.
660
00:32:36,455 --> 00:32:37,988
I know you.
661
00:32:37,990 --> 00:32:39,990
"it's fine"
never means it's fine.
662
00:32:39,992 --> 00:32:42,326
[ sighs ]
663
00:32:42,328 --> 00:32:44,061
Okay.
664
00:32:49,133 --> 00:32:50,634
This isn't right.
665
00:32:50,636 --> 00:32:52,102
It's not?
666
00:32:52,104 --> 00:32:53,170
It's not.
667
00:32:53,172 --> 00:32:57,307
It's not, um --
668
00:32:57,309 --> 00:32:59,343
It's not the speech
on my teleprompter.
669
00:32:59,345 --> 00:33:00,610
So tell me
how to fix it.
670
00:33:00,612 --> 00:33:02,346
And I can tell you
that right about now
671
00:33:02,348 --> 00:33:04,681
There are any number of staffers
having heart attacks,
672
00:33:04,683 --> 00:33:06,216
Wondering what I'm about to say.
673
00:33:06,218 --> 00:33:07,684
[ laughter ]
674
00:33:07,686 --> 00:33:10,420
No one is going to care about
james and lisa elliot
675
00:33:10,422 --> 00:33:13,457
If they're too busy wondering
about fitz and mellie grant.
676
00:33:13,459 --> 00:33:15,392
She's still grieving.
677
00:33:15,394 --> 00:33:17,527
The world knows
she's still grieving.
678
00:33:17,529 --> 00:33:19,463
So be honest.
679
00:33:19,465 --> 00:33:23,400
But here's the truth.
680
00:33:23,402 --> 00:33:30,340
My family and I have been
through something unspeakable.
681
00:33:30,342 --> 00:33:33,377
Something that no parent --
no human being --
682
00:33:33,379 --> 00:33:35,545
Should ever have to experience.
683
00:33:39,784 --> 00:33:43,487
And we are, all of us,
684
00:33:43,489 --> 00:33:46,757
Dealing with our loss
in the best ways we know how --
685
00:33:46,759 --> 00:33:51,661
Me...
Our daughter, karen...
686
00:33:51,663 --> 00:33:54,631
Our little son, teddy...
687
00:33:54,633 --> 00:33:59,269
And my lovely, amazingly strong
wife, mellie,
688
00:33:59,271 --> 00:34:04,207
Who is here to support
our nation tonight.
689
00:34:04,209 --> 00:34:07,677
[ applause ]
690
00:34:10,314 --> 00:34:13,283
[ cheers and applause ]
691
00:34:18,289 --> 00:34:19,489
I was gonna wear blue,
692
00:34:19,491 --> 00:34:21,725
But I heard
the elliots are wearing blue,
693
00:34:21,727 --> 00:34:25,328
So I decided to go with red.
694
00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:45,816
My son jerry's death...
695
00:34:45,818 --> 00:34:49,219
Was a horrible fluke.
696
00:34:49,221 --> 00:34:51,721
But it was just that --
a fluke.
697
00:34:51,723 --> 00:34:53,423
