1
00:00:06,047 --> 00:00:09,258
Ambassador, let the Prime Minister know
she has two options.
2
00:00:09,259 --> 00:00:12,177
She can either tell the Russians
to stay out of her yard,
3
00:00:12,178 --> 00:00:14,221
or I'll send warships to do it for her.
4
00:00:14,222 --> 00:00:15,973
Grace is, uh, different
5
00:00:15,974 --> 00:00:17,266
since the shooting.
6
00:00:17,267 --> 00:00:18,642
I dunno what's going on in there.
7
00:00:18,643 --> 00:00:20,686
- You're being weird.
- This is what it looks like.
8
00:00:20,687 --> 00:00:22,521
- What?
- Me. On your side.
9
00:00:22,522 --> 00:00:25,774
I don't think the silent treatment is
what I was asking for.
10
00:00:25,775 --> 00:00:29,236
The ambassador and the first gentleman
were in the study last night.
11
00:00:29,237 --> 00:00:32,364
She said she'd blackmailed
Prime Minister Trowbridge.
12
00:00:32,365 --> 00:00:35,659
I don't think the threat of warships
in the North Sea is a threat.
13
00:00:35,660 --> 00:00:38,203
- I think she may do it.
- She saw what Rayburn did.
14
00:00:38,204 --> 00:00:41,040
Rayburn didn't order the attack.
Grace Penn did.
15
00:00:41,041 --> 00:00:42,750
What exactly am I doing here?
16
00:00:42,751 --> 00:00:44,376
You're special envoy, officially.
17
00:00:44,377 --> 00:00:48,422
I'm no great fan of sending warships,
but it's what she said.
18
00:00:48,423 --> 00:00:50,674
So... probably should say it.
19
00:00:50,675 --> 00:00:51,967
When I go talk to the PM,
20
00:00:51,968 --> 00:00:54,386
the president's husband
is gonna be sitting next to me.
21
00:00:54,387 --> 00:00:57,514
It doesn't matter
if I won't deliver the message. He will.
22
00:00:57,515 --> 00:00:59,266
So keep him the fuck out of there.
23
00:00:59,267 --> 00:01:04,229
The president would be more comfortable
if you told Russia you'd prefer they... not.
24
00:01:04,230 --> 00:01:05,522
- Come get their dead.
- Yes.
25
00:01:05,523 --> 00:01:08,067
Russia, if nothing else, is predictable.
26
00:01:08,068 --> 00:01:10,944
They want what they want,
and they're coming to get it.
27
00:01:10,945 --> 00:01:12,447
You have to tell them no.
28
00:01:12,947 --> 00:01:15,240
- We can protect you.
- I know that you can.
29
00:01:15,241 --> 00:01:18,911
But once you get what you want,
I have no reason to believe that you will.
30
00:01:18,912 --> 00:01:22,039
- Anything else you'd like me to consider?
- No.
31
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:24,166
- I met with the PM tonight.
- You did?
32
00:01:24,167 --> 00:01:27,086
Might be an appropriate time to ask
the first gentleman to step out.
33
00:01:27,087 --> 00:01:29,379
- He's special envoy to the UK.
- What?
34
00:01:29,380 --> 00:01:33,217
Can we all, on either side of the ocean,
just zip it for a moment?
35
00:01:33,218 --> 00:01:36,679
Go ahead. Is she calling the Kremlin
and telling them to stay the hell out?
36
00:01:37,806 --> 00:01:40,183
Yes, ma'am. She is.
37
00:02:09,587 --> 00:02:10,755
{\an8}- French?
- Yep.
38
00:02:11,256 --> 00:02:12,714
{\an8}- Not Italian.
- French.
39
00:02:12,715 --> 00:02:15,300
{\an8}The Italians are the ones
who requested alphabetical.
40
00:02:15,301 --> 00:02:16,969
Alphabetical in French.
41
00:02:16,970 --> 00:02:19,013
In English, Canada's first.
42
00:02:19,514 --> 00:02:21,683
- What's their problem with Canada?
- Long story.
43
00:02:22,183 --> 00:02:23,267
We're in Italy.
44
00:02:23,268 --> 00:02:25,561
And it is a request from the Italians.
45
00:02:25,562 --> 00:02:27,896
But in Italian, Canada is also first.
46
00:02:27,897 --> 00:02:29,857
In French, Germany's first.
47
00:02:29,858 --> 00:02:30,774
Allemagne.
48
00:02:30,775 --> 00:02:32,484
What the fuck
has French got to do with it?
49
00:02:32,485 --> 00:02:34,528
It's the official language of NATO.
50
00:02:34,529 --> 00:02:36,655
- The G7 is not NATO.
- Yes.
51
00:02:36,656 --> 00:02:38,407
I feel like I've said that a lot now.
52
00:02:38,408 --> 00:02:41,034
Are you aware that
when you're overwhelmed with your work,
53
00:02:41,035 --> 00:02:43,287
you develop
an unnecessary interest in mine?
54
00:02:43,288 --> 00:02:45,956
Canada's become a global moral leader.
55
00:02:45,957 --> 00:02:48,917
We're not dissing them
because France has a historic prerogative
56
00:02:48,918 --> 00:02:50,128
at a venue we're not in.
57
00:02:50,628 --> 00:02:53,131
- Lucia, I am so sorry.
- Stuie.
58
00:02:53,631 --> 00:02:57,009
As soon as you get the ambassador settled,
I need you to talk to the Brits.
59
00:02:57,010 --> 00:03:01,889
An NGA satellite caught a Project 141
vessel leaving port in Murmansk.
60
00:03:01,890 --> 00:03:03,891
It is just one data point.
61
00:03:03,892 --> 00:03:06,602
I'm not bringing it to the president
until we know more, but...
62
00:03:06,603 --> 00:03:08,897
I want to know how Whitehall's
conversation went with the Kremlin.
63
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:11,441
Hi.
64
00:03:18,531 --> 00:03:20,866
What's a Project 141 vessel?
65
00:03:20,867 --> 00:03:23,286
A Russian ship. Salvage vessel.
66
00:03:24,287 --> 00:03:26,539
{\an8}Billie said one just left Murmansk.
67
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:28,124
Does that mean...
68
00:03:29,209 --> 00:03:31,336
Russia's coming to get its sub.
69
00:03:34,714 --> 00:03:37,967
She wants me to ask the Brits
about their conversation with Russia.
70
00:03:38,635 --> 00:03:40,094
What conversation?
71
00:03:41,596 --> 00:03:42,931
I don't know.
72
00:03:43,556 --> 00:03:45,808
Kate asked the PM to call Russia.
73
00:03:46,476 --> 00:03:47,477
Last night.
74
00:03:48,186 --> 00:03:49,646
But Vaughn refused.
75
00:03:51,272 --> 00:03:53,900
Correct, so why does Billie think
there was a call?
76
00:03:55,568 --> 00:03:58,905
Maybe the PM changed her mind
and then told the White House.
77
00:03:59,489 --> 00:04:00,531
Possible.
78
00:04:01,574 --> 00:04:02,575
Did you ask?
79
00:04:03,284 --> 00:04:04,493
Billie?
80
00:04:04,494 --> 00:04:05,702
Yes.
81
00:04:05,703 --> 00:04:06,871
Did I ask what?
82
00:04:08,248 --> 00:04:11,459
Why she thinks there was a Russia call
and we think there wasn't?
83
00:04:12,252 --> 00:04:13,253
No.
84
00:04:13,753 --> 00:04:15,672
Did you say anything?
85
00:04:16,172 --> 00:04:17,173
No.
86
00:04:18,633 --> 00:04:22,719
Billie asked for details on a call
that we think didn't happen,
87
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:24,179
and you had no follow-up.
88
00:04:24,180 --> 00:04:26,599
I mean, now I do.
89
00:04:28,476 --> 00:04:31,561
It was the first time
you saw her since you heard.
90
00:04:31,562 --> 00:04:32,646
Billie?
91
00:04:32,647 --> 00:04:35,024
- May have thrown you a little.
- No.
92
00:04:35,525 --> 00:04:37,901
- I'm fine.
- Are you?
93
00:04:37,902 --> 00:04:39,861
The attack wasn't her idea.
94
00:04:39,862 --> 00:04:41,655
- It was Grace Penn's.
- Exactly.
95
00:04:41,656 --> 00:04:43,490
I don't blame Billie.
96
00:04:43,491 --> 00:04:44,784
Sure about that?
97
00:04:45,660 --> 00:04:46,660
I'm fine.
98
00:04:46,661 --> 00:04:48,162
You were dumbstruck.
99
00:04:48,663 --> 00:04:49,747
I'll follow up.
100
00:04:50,373 --> 00:04:51,499
I'm gonna follow up.
101
00:04:56,504 --> 00:04:58,338
- Where's Hal?
- Few minutes out.
102
00:04:58,339 --> 00:05:00,507
So, great to see you, but maybe leave.
103
00:05:00,508 --> 00:05:03,802
Ma'am, was Billie on your call
with the president last night?
104
00:05:03,803 --> 00:05:06,014
'Cause she thinks
Vaughn called the Russians.
105
00:05:08,558 --> 00:05:10,018
And we don't.
106
00:05:11,102 --> 00:05:13,186
- A Russian salvage ship?
- Yes.
107
00:05:13,187 --> 00:05:14,646
Did Billie tell the president?
108
00:05:14,647 --> 00:05:16,315
- Not yet.
- Or Hal?
109
00:05:16,316 --> 00:05:19,568
She doesn't know what it means.
She wants more information.
110
00:05:19,569 --> 00:05:22,572
She wants Stuart to ask the Brits
if they can clarify
111
00:05:23,072 --> 00:05:25,241
based on Vaughn's call with the Russians.
112
00:05:28,453 --> 00:05:31,247
But you told us Vaughn refused
to call the Russians.
113
00:05:34,375 --> 00:05:35,709
You asked, and she refused.
114
00:05:35,710 --> 00:05:36,752
Let her answer.
115
00:05:36,753 --> 00:05:37,837
Sorry.
116
00:05:38,755 --> 00:05:41,090
She says I fill every silence
with a question,
117
00:05:41,674 --> 00:05:43,300
which apparently is bad intelligence work.
118
00:05:43,301 --> 00:05:45,887
- Oh my God.
- I lied to the president.
119
00:05:47,221 --> 00:05:49,890
Five seconds in,
Ganon asked her a simple question,
120
00:05:49,891 --> 00:05:52,685
and she bit his head off, like sharply.
121
00:05:54,062 --> 00:05:56,439
It seemed like a bad time
to say I'd gone rogue.
122
00:05:57,190 --> 00:05:58,190
Okay.
123
00:05:58,191 --> 00:05:59,441
Not really.
124
00:05:59,442 --> 00:06:02,569
- I bought us time.
- What happens when she talks to Vaughn?
125
00:06:02,570 --> 00:06:04,613
Or hears Russian ships are on their way?
126
00:06:04,614 --> 00:06:06,115
Hal will talk to Grace.
127
00:06:07,075 --> 00:06:08,700
I had an idea that Vaughn liked,
128
00:06:08,701 --> 00:06:11,078
but she didn't believe it coming from me.
129
00:06:11,079 --> 00:06:12,829
If she hears it from Grace,
130
00:06:12,830 --> 00:06:14,498
she will say yes.
131
00:06:14,499 --> 00:06:16,292
And Hal agreed to walk it in?
132
00:06:17,043 --> 00:06:18,044
He will.
133
00:06:19,545 --> 00:06:20,962
There should be a backup plan.
134
00:06:20,963 --> 00:06:23,632
I'll deal with Hal. Worry about Billie.
135
00:06:23,633 --> 00:06:24,759
Hal's here.
136
00:06:25,343 --> 00:06:27,261
Thank you. Ciao. Arrivederci.
137
00:06:28,012 --> 00:06:29,764
Your confidence is a balm.
138
00:07:49,469 --> 00:07:50,803
Living room.
139
00:07:51,304 --> 00:07:52,345
Are you hungry?
140
00:07:52,346 --> 00:07:53,430
I'm... I'm good.
141
00:07:53,431 --> 00:07:56,725
There's fruit if you wanna graze,
and the staff is giving us space,
142
00:07:56,726 --> 00:07:58,852
but if you're feeling the flight,
they can make you a coffee.
143
00:07:58,853 --> 00:08:01,354
- I'm good.
- Terrace.
144
00:08:01,355 --> 00:08:03,900
- Would you like a drink?
- In a minute.
145
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:06,319
Do you need to prep for tomorrow?
146
00:08:06,819 --> 00:08:07,819
I'm prepped.
147
00:08:07,820 --> 00:08:09,822
And you know about Gruner's handshakes?
148
00:08:10,323 --> 00:08:11,823
Tell me about Gruner's handshakes.
149
00:08:11,824 --> 00:08:14,701
He holds his hand way down here,
so you have to bend over.
150
00:08:14,702 --> 00:08:17,413
- Makes it look like you're bowing.
- So now I'm prepped.
151
00:08:18,289 --> 00:08:20,123
The fruit is really good.
152
00:08:20,124 --> 00:08:22,375
It's like California fruit.
153
00:08:22,376 --> 00:08:24,252
- Do you want fruit?
- I've already had some.
154
00:08:24,253 --> 00:08:26,213
You worried I'm going to starve in Italy?
155
00:08:26,214 --> 00:08:28,131
Well, dinner's not for a while.
156
00:08:28,132 --> 00:08:29,634
With the Penns.
157
00:08:30,426 --> 00:08:32,219
- Why?
- It'll be nice.
158
00:08:32,220 --> 00:08:35,013
He makes me anxious,
'cause I make him anxious.
159
00:08:35,014 --> 00:08:36,682
I think we're past that.
160
00:08:39,101 --> 00:08:40,519
Do I need to brush my teeth?
161
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:41,603
- No.
- You're leaning back.
162
00:08:41,604 --> 00:08:43,980
- Have I got airplane breath?
- I mean, yeah, but that's okay.
163
00:08:43,981 --> 00:08:45,315
- I'll be back.
- No, no, no, it's...
164
00:08:45,316 --> 00:08:47,193
- I really don't care.
- Why are you fussing?
165
00:08:47,985 --> 00:08:50,111
Because we have, like,
no time to ourselves,
166
00:08:50,112 --> 00:08:51,489
and I've got a big agenda.
167
00:08:52,073 --> 00:08:53,491
I like the sound of that.
168
00:08:55,952 --> 00:08:57,078
Hey!
169
00:08:58,871 --> 00:09:01,207
This sure beats the hell out of Munich.
170
00:09:03,584 --> 00:09:04,585
Todd?
171
00:09:08,256 --> 00:09:09,257
Babe?
172
00:09:11,425 --> 00:09:12,426
Todd?
173
00:09:13,761 --> 00:09:15,471
I'll be down in a sec.
174
00:09:19,183 --> 00:09:20,184
Where are you?
175
00:09:22,144 --> 00:09:23,229
Right here.
176
00:09:23,938 --> 00:09:25,439
Oh, hi!
177
00:09:26,607 --> 00:09:27,608
Hi.
178
00:09:28,276 --> 00:09:30,777
- Did you hear me yell?
- Yeah.
179
00:09:30,778 --> 00:09:32,654
I was finishing stuff up.
180
00:09:32,655 --> 00:09:34,489
I nearly called a search party.
181
00:09:34,490 --> 00:09:36,616
They would've found me right here.
182
00:09:36,617 --> 00:09:38,159
Finishing stuff up.
183
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:39,370
Work stuff?
184
00:09:40,037 --> 00:09:41,288
You don't want the details.
185
00:09:41,289 --> 00:09:44,416
Of course I do. You have a new job.
I wanna hear all the details.
186
00:09:44,417 --> 00:09:46,210
I was taking a shit.
187
00:09:48,546 --> 00:09:50,255
Do you wanna talk to Billie together?
188
00:09:50,256 --> 00:09:51,673
She's already in Lucca.
189
00:09:51,674 --> 00:09:54,969
Pre-meeting meeting in the town hall.
She'll be out in half an hour.
190
00:09:55,511 --> 00:09:56,344
Hmm.
191
00:09:56,345 --> 00:09:59,347
Maybe we don't find her
till after her next session.
192
00:09:59,348 --> 00:10:00,557
Buy some time.
193
00:10:00,558 --> 00:10:02,602
I'm not worried about buying time.
194
00:10:03,102 --> 00:10:06,938
The diplomatic corps has perfected
the art of strategic miscommunication
195
00:10:06,939 --> 00:10:08,481
and weaponized incompetence.
196
00:10:08,482 --> 00:10:09,608
And I believe it.
197
00:10:09,609 --> 00:10:11,735
In fact, can you get me
a copy of the readout?
198
00:10:11,736 --> 00:10:13,153
From Vaughn's call to Russia?
199
00:10:13,154 --> 00:10:15,572
- It didn't happen.
- No, the one from last week.
200
00:10:15,573 --> 00:10:17,490
That's not gonna be very useful.
201
00:10:17,491 --> 00:10:18,868
Not even a little.
202
00:10:21,954 --> 00:10:23,289
Could piss Billie off.
203
00:10:24,540 --> 00:10:26,667
If she figures out
you're slow-rolling her.
204
00:10:27,251 --> 00:10:28,628
I'm okay with that.
205
00:10:29,837 --> 00:10:31,630
I'll talk to Libby about the readout.
206
00:10:31,631 --> 00:10:34,132
- You should be in the security review.
- Which is when?
207
00:10:34,133 --> 00:10:35,676
First up.
208
00:10:36,802 --> 00:10:38,178
Why don't you come along?
209
00:10:38,179 --> 00:10:40,765
We'll make you a copy
before the session starts.
210
00:10:41,641 --> 00:10:42,849
Are you babysitting me?
211
00:10:42,850 --> 00:10:44,644
No, I'm trying to be helpful.
212
00:10:45,311 --> 00:10:48,147
- Great that you find it so disorienting.
- Well, thank you.
213
00:10:48,648 --> 00:10:50,815
- I appreciate you.
- No, you don't.
214
00:10:50,816 --> 00:10:52,068
Well, I do.
215
00:10:52,568 --> 00:10:54,320
Even though you think I'm inept.
216
00:11:04,538 --> 00:11:06,706
If you can't look Billie in the eyes,
217
00:11:06,707 --> 00:11:08,124
look right between them.
218
00:11:08,125 --> 00:11:09,668
Reads as eye contact.
219
00:11:09,669 --> 00:11:12,505
- I know how to make eye contact.
- Not when you lie.
220
00:11:15,299 --> 00:11:17,133
I don't lie to you.
When have I lied to you?
221
00:11:17,134 --> 00:11:19,052
"I love this song. It's really catchy."
222
00:11:19,053 --> 00:11:20,137
Rick Springfield?
223
00:11:20,721 --> 00:11:23,973
"Love what you did with your flat.
You really warmed the place up."
224
00:11:23,974 --> 00:11:26,518
Compared to how it used to be.
225
00:11:26,519 --> 00:11:28,603
{\an8}"The swordfish was delicious."
226
00:11:28,604 --> 00:11:30,480
{\an8}- In my defense...
- Really?
227
00:11:30,481 --> 00:11:32,982
{\an8}It looks hearty,
but it's a very delicate fish.
228
00:11:32,983 --> 00:11:35,485
If it's dry, you can just say so.
229
00:11:35,486 --> 00:11:37,738
I was choking. I could not speak.
230
00:11:43,035 --> 00:11:44,036
Better?
231
00:11:44,829 --> 00:11:45,830
Perfect.
232
00:11:51,669 --> 00:11:54,213
They don't chill it quite enough.
233
00:11:55,506 --> 00:11:56,506
I don't mind it.
234
00:11:56,507 --> 00:11:59,467
Okay, but if you change your mind,
I'm here.
235
00:11:59,468 --> 00:12:00,553
You are.
236
00:12:02,388 --> 00:12:04,305
I thought we were gonna get naked
and roll around.
237
00:12:04,306 --> 00:12:05,223
We are.
238
00:12:05,224 --> 00:12:08,059
I wanna make sure we don't fuck
through all the talking time.
239
00:12:08,060 --> 00:12:09,269
So maybe we talk first?
240
00:12:09,270 --> 00:12:10,645
Excellent.
241
00:12:10,646 --> 00:12:11,814
Take it away.
242
00:12:13,774 --> 00:12:15,817
You just got off a plane.
I don't wanna ambush you.
243
00:12:15,818 --> 00:12:19,279
This is one of the most beautiful places
in the world, and you're ruining it.
244
00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:20,447
I'm sorry.
245
00:12:20,448 --> 00:12:21,532
Okay.
246
00:12:23,451 --> 00:12:25,034
Last time we were together,
247
00:12:25,035 --> 00:12:28,371
you'd valiantly hopped on a plane
for a booty call.
248
00:12:28,372 --> 00:12:29,873
Best booty on two continents.
249
00:12:29,874 --> 00:12:32,042
Thank you. But...
250
00:12:32,793 --> 00:12:34,252
it didn't quite pan out.
251
00:12:34,253 --> 00:12:36,005
Yeah, I'm worried I'm oh for two.
252
00:12:36,881 --> 00:12:38,256
And that was my fault.
253
00:12:38,257 --> 00:12:39,966
Well, you were upset.
254
00:12:39,967 --> 00:12:42,761
But I... I didn't speak.
255
00:12:42,762 --> 00:12:44,346
I... I wasn't...
256
00:12:47,725 --> 00:12:49,225
I wasn't there with you.
257
00:12:49,226 --> 00:12:52,020
I didn't trust myself
to open my mouth without...
258
00:12:52,021 --> 00:12:53,146
What?
259
00:12:53,147 --> 00:12:54,981
Taking it out on you.
260
00:12:54,982 --> 00:12:56,816
- Blaming you.
- You're allowed to blame me.
261
00:12:56,817 --> 00:13:00,779
No, the version of me
that would've blamed you is...
262
00:13:00,780 --> 00:13:04,532
- What?
- I have been working hard not to do that.
263
00:13:04,533 --> 00:13:05,450
Okay.
264
00:13:05,451 --> 00:13:07,535
Ever since the shooting in Windsor,
265
00:13:07,536 --> 00:13:09,455
I've been really trying.
266
00:13:10,039 --> 00:13:11,707
You said I'm the sweeper now.
267
00:13:12,249 --> 00:13:14,751
- Not you.
- It had been a tough day when I said that.
268
00:13:14,752 --> 00:13:16,170
But you meant it, right?
269
00:13:18,005 --> 00:13:19,006
Yeah.
270
00:13:20,758 --> 00:13:21,925
Is it helping?
271
00:13:21,926 --> 00:13:23,468
Sure, yeah.
272
00:13:23,469 --> 00:13:24,553
Good.
273
00:13:25,054 --> 00:13:27,222
I don't want to backslide,
274
00:13:27,223 --> 00:13:31,142
because I understand
why you hated that and that person.
275
00:13:31,143 --> 00:13:32,728
And I do too.
276
00:13:34,021 --> 00:13:35,021
Hated?
277
00:13:35,022 --> 00:13:38,733
But it's been hard to find a balance
where I'm not that,
278
00:13:38,734 --> 00:13:40,860
but I'm still here.
279
00:13:40,861 --> 00:13:42,028
- Kate...
- You know...
280
00:13:42,029 --> 00:13:45,907
Not unable to speak
when you fly across an ocean.
281
00:13:45,908 --> 00:13:48,368
I didn't hate that person.
282
00:13:48,369 --> 00:13:51,371
- Whatever. The point is...
- No, not whatever.
283
00:13:51,372 --> 00:13:53,540
- Okay.
- You think I...
284
00:13:53,541 --> 00:13:56,709
I spent 15 years loving you
and wanting you and secretly hating you?
285
00:13:56,710 --> 00:14:00,673
- I get it.
- I just wanted to turn the volume down.
286
00:14:02,299 --> 00:14:03,132
Okay.
287
00:14:03,133 --> 00:14:05,845
I wanted you,
not you with a sock in your mouth.
288
00:14:07,596 --> 00:14:08,638
- Okay.
- That's...
289
00:14:08,639 --> 00:14:10,473
That's not what I asked for.
290
00:14:10,474 --> 00:14:12,183
Well, it... it kind of is.
291
00:14:12,184 --> 00:14:13,936
No, it's not.
292
00:14:15,521 --> 00:14:16,813
Okay, it's not.
293
00:14:16,814 --> 00:14:19,107
You believe me or are you saying that
because I'm supposed
294
00:14:19,108 --> 00:14:20,609
to win every argument?
295
00:14:23,028 --> 00:14:24,572
Fuck.
296
00:14:26,365 --> 00:14:27,908
I wanted you
297
00:14:28,534 --> 00:14:30,994
just at ten,
298
00:14:30,995 --> 00:14:32,580
not 11.
299
00:14:33,622 --> 00:14:35,165
- Okay.
- Or nine.
300
00:14:37,293 --> 00:14:38,335
Yeah.
301
00:14:44,508 --> 00:14:46,051
Fuck.
302
00:14:48,721 --> 00:14:50,305
- Well, now it makes sense.
- What?
303
00:14:50,306 --> 00:14:51,848
Well, you've been...
304
00:14:51,849 --> 00:14:54,018
You've been blaming yourself and...
305
00:14:54,768 --> 00:14:56,478
bottling yourself
306
00:14:57,688 --> 00:15:00,399
like something in you was crushed.
307
00:15:01,525 --> 00:15:03,152
Like I'd crushed you.
308
00:15:07,364 --> 00:15:09,074
I didn't hate you.
309
00:15:11,118 --> 00:15:12,911
- A little bit.
- Kate.
310
00:15:12,912 --> 00:15:15,079
I'm a... strong flavor.
311
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:16,290
No.
312
00:15:17,833 --> 00:15:20,418
I never...
I never wanted you to feel like that.
313
00:15:20,419 --> 00:15:23,004
You didn't do anything wrong.
You didn't do anything wrong.
314
00:15:23,005 --> 00:15:24,714
I'm so sorry.
315
00:15:24,715 --> 00:15:26,592
I'm so fucking sorry.
316
00:15:34,266 --> 00:15:35,392
Okay. Thank you.
317
00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:38,811
- The pope wants to come.
- Okay.
318
00:15:38,812 --> 00:15:40,855
That's gonna grind the day to a halt.
319
00:15:40,856 --> 00:15:44,109
- Readout. Vaughn's call with the Kremlin.
- Great, thanks.
320
00:15:46,570 --> 00:15:47,654
This is the wrong call.
321
00:15:47,655 --> 00:15:49,239
- Stuart!
- Yeah.
322
00:15:49,823 --> 00:15:52,117
- This is the wrong call.
- It is?
323
00:15:52,618 --> 00:15:53,702
Who gave it to you?
324
00:15:54,286 --> 00:15:55,662
Eidra got it from MI6.
325
00:15:55,663 --> 00:15:57,038
- Tom Libby?
- Yeah.
326
00:15:57,039 --> 00:15:58,666
Is he fucking with her?
327
00:15:59,208 --> 00:16:00,208
I don't know. Is he?
328
00:16:00,209 --> 00:16:01,751
This call's from three days ago.
329
00:16:01,752 --> 00:16:04,505
I need the one
from last night or this morning.
330
00:16:06,382 --> 00:16:07,424
Shit.
331
00:16:08,384 --> 00:16:10,218
- Give me some time. I'll dig into it.
- Okay.
332
00:16:10,219 --> 00:16:13,013
My next meeting is short,
so find me on the one after that.
333
00:16:20,270 --> 00:16:21,313
You want one?
334
00:16:21,814 --> 00:16:22,815
Bellini?
335
00:16:23,315 --> 00:16:25,067
Sun's not over the yardarm.
336
00:16:25,818 --> 00:16:26,819
It is somewhere.
337
00:16:27,319 --> 00:16:28,320
I'd love one.
338
00:16:31,782 --> 00:16:32,992
It's not gonna...
339
00:16:33,575 --> 00:16:34,575
put you to sleep?
340
00:16:34,576 --> 00:16:35,786
So why'd you ask?
341
00:16:37,997 --> 00:16:39,497
Your body, your choice.
342
00:16:39,498 --> 00:16:41,458
I have executive time.
343
00:16:41,959 --> 00:16:43,377
Means we can take a nap.
344
00:16:44,044 --> 00:16:45,587
You want to now?
345
00:16:46,380 --> 00:16:47,381
What?
346
00:16:48,924 --> 00:16:50,300
Nap?
347
00:16:50,801 --> 00:16:52,136
Don't let me hold you up.
348
00:16:53,095 --> 00:16:54,721
Do I owe you an apology?
349
00:16:54,722 --> 00:16:56,223
For what?
350
00:16:57,725 --> 00:16:59,643
I don't know.
Maybe you can give me a hint.
351
00:17:01,311 --> 00:17:02,312
You don't.
352
00:17:03,272 --> 00:17:06,190
Was I dismissive
about the special envoy business?
353
00:17:06,191 --> 00:17:07,108
No.
354
00:17:07,109 --> 00:17:09,694
I was surprised at first,
but I take it seriously.
355
00:17:09,695 --> 00:17:10,903
Well...
356
00:17:10,904 --> 00:17:13,865
- You shouldn't.
- Exactly the opposite, as you proved.
357
00:17:13,866 --> 00:17:16,117
Your drink, madame.
358
00:17:16,118 --> 00:17:18,162
You were a major success.
359
00:17:18,662 --> 00:17:21,790
I wanna hear how you envoyed with the PM.
360
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:25,585
Did you get her liquored up on Bellinis
and she was putty in your hands?
361
00:17:25,586 --> 00:17:26,878
The ambassador took the lead.
362
00:17:26,879 --> 00:17:30,214
Did you and Kate have a team strategy
or is she a fluid dance partner?
363
00:17:30,215 --> 00:17:32,467
- Babe.
- I wanna celebrate your victory.
364
00:17:32,468 --> 00:17:33,593
I'm in your chain of command.
365
00:17:33,594 --> 00:17:36,804
I'm not supposed to leapfrog
the entire national security apparatus
366
00:17:36,805 --> 00:17:38,097
to tell you about a meeting.
367
00:17:38,098 --> 00:17:40,600
I'm allowed to ask for a briefing.
368
00:17:40,601 --> 00:17:43,019
- I'll send a note down the chain.
- Gracie...
369
00:17:43,020 --> 00:17:45,938
Ask Ganon if he can get
the Europe division to get the UK desk
370
00:17:45,939 --> 00:17:47,106
to call Embassy London
371
00:17:47,107 --> 00:17:49,442
who will bounce it to Italy
and request an update
372
00:17:49,443 --> 00:17:51,819
from the hot envoy.
373
00:17:51,820 --> 00:17:54,238
This isn't a joke to me.
374
00:17:54,239 --> 00:17:55,324
I'm gonna do it right.
375
00:17:57,076 --> 00:17:58,785
As commander in chief of the armed forces
376
00:17:58,786 --> 00:18:01,913
who asked you to tell the Brits
I may send destroyers to their shorelines...
377
00:18:01,914 --> 00:18:03,457
You asked the ambassador.
378
00:18:03,957 --> 00:18:05,084
And now I'm asking you.
379
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:08,252
In fact...
380
00:18:08,253 --> 00:18:09,963
I'm commanding you.
381
00:18:10,547 --> 00:18:12,965
You wanna play with the big dogs?
You got an order.
382
00:18:12,966 --> 00:18:14,133
Answer the question.
383
00:18:14,134 --> 00:18:15,594
I wasn't there.
384
00:18:19,431 --> 00:18:20,724
Kate ditched me.
385
00:18:21,725 --> 00:18:23,309
She didn't want me in the room, so...
386
00:18:23,310 --> 00:18:27,105
she sent me off in a monkey suit
to meet the king.
387
00:18:27,106 --> 00:18:29,274
She went to see Vaughn without me.
388
00:18:32,569 --> 00:18:34,238
I'm gonna have another Bellini.
389
00:18:37,866 --> 00:18:40,451
- Is Pavarotti alive?
- The singer?
390
00:18:40,452 --> 00:18:42,746
They said he wanted to come too,
like the pope.
391
00:18:43,247 --> 00:18:44,997
- Long dead.
- Fuckers.
392
00:18:44,998 --> 00:18:46,165
You got my readout?
393
00:18:46,166 --> 00:18:47,458
We asked the Brits.
394
00:18:47,459 --> 00:18:49,335
They said there wasn't another call.
395
00:18:49,336 --> 00:18:52,421
They gave Eidra the readout
to the only PM-Russia call that exists.
396
00:18:52,422 --> 00:18:53,923
Well, that doesn't make sense.
397
00:18:53,924 --> 00:18:57,343
Maybe the Brits misunderstood
what the ambassador was saying.
398
00:18:57,344 --> 00:18:59,637
Or the ambassador misunderstood
what the PM was saying.
399
00:18:59,638 --> 00:19:01,055
I don't need the questions.
400
00:19:01,056 --> 00:19:02,390
Just need an answer.
401
00:19:02,391 --> 00:19:04,309
Give me some time. I'll dig into it.
402
00:19:05,477 --> 00:19:06,477
What did you do?
403
00:19:06,478 --> 00:19:08,980
What did I do?
404
00:19:08,981 --> 00:19:11,149
Did you insult Kate or Vaughn?
405
00:19:11,150 --> 00:19:14,360
- That's your first assumption.
- Career ambassadors can be territorial.
406
00:19:14,361 --> 00:19:17,613
Maybe she's trying to hoard access,
elbow you out.
407
00:19:17,614 --> 00:19:19,407
I don't think she finds me
that threatening.
408
00:19:19,408 --> 00:19:20,700
Maybe that's the problem.
409
00:19:20,701 --> 00:19:23,911
You're not talking about mah-jongg.
You gotta be able to take a stand.
410
00:19:23,912 --> 00:19:26,497
Suresh, can you please find
Ambassador Wyler?
411
00:19:26,498 --> 00:19:28,749
- He's not there.
- Why the fuck not?
412
00:19:28,750 --> 00:19:31,795
They're giving us space to reconnect.
413
00:19:32,504 --> 00:19:34,005
Mission accomplished.
414
00:19:34,006 --> 00:19:37,550
I'd prefer you not call my colleague in
for a spanking.
415
00:19:37,551 --> 00:19:40,469
This was humiliating enough
without you involved.
416
00:19:40,470 --> 00:19:42,638
- She works for me.
- Everyone works for you.
417
00:19:42,639 --> 00:19:44,891
If I have a problem with her,
I need to deal with it.
418
00:19:44,892 --> 00:19:46,185
You're the problem.
419
00:19:47,477 --> 00:19:48,812
It's not Kate.
420
00:19:49,396 --> 00:19:50,439
Not me.
421
00:19:51,773 --> 00:19:53,108
You.
422
00:19:56,069 --> 00:19:57,403
I feel like shit.
423
00:19:57,404 --> 00:20:00,406
That's what I always hope to hear
after intercourse.
424
00:20:00,407 --> 00:20:03,535
No, I just... I can't believe
you thought I hated you.
425
00:20:04,995 --> 00:20:06,246
Not your fault.
426
00:20:08,081 --> 00:20:09,832
Well, it's kind of my fault.
427
00:20:09,833 --> 00:20:11,125
How?
428
00:20:11,126 --> 00:20:12,211
Well...
429
00:20:12,836 --> 00:20:15,589
I mean, I knew you were taking it too far.
430
00:20:17,382 --> 00:20:18,759
Shrinking.
431
00:20:20,093 --> 00:20:21,345
I should've said something.
432
00:20:21,845 --> 00:20:23,513
We were barely together.
433
00:20:24,598 --> 00:20:26,141
I think that makes it worse.
434
00:20:27,392 --> 00:20:29,686
- You were busy.
- No. Just let me...
435
00:20:33,357 --> 00:20:34,858
I was punishing you.
436
00:20:36,693 --> 00:20:37,986
I was...
437
00:20:38,487 --> 00:20:41,823
I was using the vice presidency
like a... a bludgeon.
438
00:20:46,161 --> 00:20:49,164
If I overtook the note, that's on me.
439
00:20:49,665 --> 00:20:53,834
I definitely indulged
in some passive-aggressive deference.
440
00:20:53,835 --> 00:20:55,879
Aw, it's not the same.
441
00:20:57,214 --> 00:21:00,926
I should've stopped the Todd thing.
That was definitely punishment.
442
00:21:02,469 --> 00:21:03,470
The point
443
00:21:04,012 --> 00:21:06,473
is not to make you beat yourself up.
444
00:21:08,058 --> 00:21:09,517
Am I hijacking your... your talk?
445
00:21:09,518 --> 00:21:10,602
You are.
446
00:21:11,895 --> 00:21:13,688
I'm sorry. You go.
447
00:21:13,689 --> 00:21:16,441
No, I don't need to go, but it is just...
448
00:21:17,067 --> 00:21:19,360
a relief to know that, uh...
449
00:21:19,361 --> 00:21:21,321
we both think I took it too far.
450
00:21:22,281 --> 00:21:23,407
Yeah, you did.
451
00:21:24,366 --> 00:21:26,827
I will find a middle ground.
452
00:21:32,416 --> 00:21:34,459
That smell, what is that? Is that jasmine?
453
00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:35,961
Maybe.
454
00:21:38,463 --> 00:21:40,048
Can I pitch you an idea?
455
00:21:40,549 --> 00:21:42,842
- Of course.
- I don't wanna step on your toes.
456
00:21:42,843 --> 00:21:44,093
I don't feel stepped on.
457
00:21:44,094 --> 00:21:45,637
Or the president's.
458
00:21:46,346 --> 00:21:47,347
Pitch.
459
00:21:49,099 --> 00:21:50,976
What if we go get the bodies?
460
00:21:51,476 --> 00:21:52,477
In the sub.
461
00:21:54,771 --> 00:21:57,273
Russia is coming in to collect their dead.
462
00:21:57,274 --> 00:21:58,441
Which is bullshit.
463
00:21:58,442 --> 00:22:01,694
It's bullshit that works, which is
why the Brits are letting it happen.
464
00:22:01,695 --> 00:22:03,780
If we get the bodies,
465
00:22:04,823 --> 00:22:06,283
no more fig leaf.
466
00:22:09,369 --> 00:22:10,494
Yeah.
467
00:22:10,495 --> 00:22:13,999
Then it doesn't matter
if Vaughn gets Russia to back off.
468
00:22:15,125 --> 00:22:16,126
Right?
469
00:22:20,380 --> 00:22:21,798
That's a good idea.
470
00:22:23,759 --> 00:22:25,761
- I think you should raise it at dinner.
- You.
471
00:22:26,261 --> 00:22:28,138
She'll like it coming from you.
472
00:22:28,638 --> 00:22:30,723
- Well, can I say it was your idea?
- No.
473
00:22:30,724 --> 00:22:33,060
All right. Credit where credit's due.
474
00:22:33,685 --> 00:22:35,896
Just... sell it.
475
00:22:40,233 --> 00:22:41,485
Star jasmine.
476
00:22:43,695 --> 00:22:45,029
I spoke to Palmer.
477
00:22:45,030 --> 00:22:47,239
She said the UK understood Kate's request.
478
00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:49,493
- Okay.
- But didn't comply with it.
479
00:22:50,243 --> 00:22:51,702
So they lied to the ambassador?
480
00:22:51,703 --> 00:22:54,081
I'm not sure
that's what Palmer was suggesting.
481
00:22:54,790 --> 00:22:56,749
Did you ask what she was suggesting?
482
00:22:56,750 --> 00:22:58,751
Maybe they misunderstood Kate.
483
00:22:58,752 --> 00:23:00,545
Or I misunderstood Palmer.
484
00:23:01,046 --> 00:23:02,046
Did you?
485
00:23:02,047 --> 00:23:05,467
Well, if I knew I'd misunderstood,
I wouldn't have misunderstood.
486
00:23:06,426 --> 00:23:07,635
What else did Palmer say?
487
00:23:07,636 --> 00:23:09,054
That's it.
488
00:23:10,055 --> 00:23:13,432
So you think that Palmer thinks
that the UK is defying the US
489
00:23:13,433 --> 00:23:16,602
and letting Russia approach
a smoking gun in the North Sea,
490
00:23:16,603 --> 00:23:20,023
but you're not sure and you didn't ask
and you don't have an answer.
491
00:23:22,442 --> 00:23:24,403
Shall I give you a minute to look into it?
492
00:23:24,945 --> 00:23:25,946
Sure.
493
00:23:27,989 --> 00:23:28,990
Is your mother okay?
494
00:23:30,617 --> 00:23:31,617
I think so.
495
00:23:31,618 --> 00:23:34,245
- Did your CIA girlfriend dump you?
- No.
496
00:23:34,246 --> 00:23:37,665
I wanna be sure there is not
some very real, very tragic reason
497
00:23:37,666 --> 00:23:41,043
that you woke up this morning
with the mental capacity of a cricket.
498
00:23:41,044 --> 00:23:42,045
I'm fine.
499
00:23:42,546 --> 00:23:45,924
The FAA is inventorying civilian aircraft
near Russia.
500
00:23:46,591 --> 00:23:48,884
In case we need
an evacuation of American citizens
501
00:23:48,885 --> 00:23:50,262
in the Russian Federation.
502
00:23:50,804 --> 00:23:53,514
- Understand the gravity of the situation?
- I do.
503
00:23:53,515 --> 00:23:55,266
I need to know
why that damn ship's on the move.
504
00:23:55,267 --> 00:23:56,976
- I hear you.
- If you tell me you need a minute
505
00:23:56,977 --> 00:24:01,481
to look into it or drill down
or circle back or dig in, I will end you.
506
00:24:02,649 --> 00:24:04,651
The fuck is your problem?
507
00:24:08,155 --> 00:24:10,824
I heard Grace Penn ordered
the carrier attack.
508
00:24:13,910 --> 00:24:15,495
I guess that's my problem.
509
00:24:20,333 --> 00:24:21,375
I take it back.
510
00:24:21,376 --> 00:24:22,501
Too late.
511
00:24:22,502 --> 00:24:24,503
I apologize. Let's not do the whole thing.
512
00:24:24,504 --> 00:24:26,505
The thing where you explain
why I'm the reason
513
00:24:26,506 --> 00:24:28,174
you got ditched across an ocean?
514
00:24:28,175 --> 00:24:31,678
The thing where you get me to say words
and then tell me why they're wrong.
515
00:24:33,430 --> 00:24:36,307
Your message to Vaughn was a doozy.
516
00:24:36,308 --> 00:24:39,602
- I mean, destroyers?
- Is that your professional opinion?
517
00:24:39,603 --> 00:24:41,937
You're right.
I have no idea what I'm talking about.
518
00:24:41,938 --> 00:24:45,357
- I'm sure that's not the case.
- You know what? It's not.
519
00:24:45,358 --> 00:24:47,651
I've been in it with you for 32 years.
520
00:24:47,652 --> 00:24:49,278
I know some things.
521
00:24:49,279 --> 00:24:51,572
- I know you.
- Great, let's do a deep dive on me.
522
00:24:51,573 --> 00:24:53,241
You're different.
523
00:24:53,783 --> 00:24:56,076
You're acting weird.
524
00:24:56,077 --> 00:24:58,829
The staff thinks hanging out
with you will relax me.
525
00:24:58,830 --> 00:25:00,624
I don't think it's working.
526
00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:03,001
Fine.
527
00:25:08,924 --> 00:25:09,925
Fine.
528
00:25:11,301 --> 00:25:13,345
How? Weird.
529
00:25:13,970 --> 00:25:16,389
- We should drop it.
- I'm asking.
530
00:25:19,392 --> 00:25:22,478
I'm gonna say things I saw
as part of the diplomatic machinery,
531
00:25:22,479 --> 00:25:24,313
which I've been for three seconds,
532
00:25:24,314 --> 00:25:26,775
and you're gonna tell me
I don't know anything.
533
00:25:27,817 --> 00:25:29,361
I'm a real peach, huh?
534
00:25:31,738 --> 00:25:34,157
Well, tell me about the machinery.
535
00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:39,328
There are 50 steps on the ladder
536
00:25:39,329 --> 00:25:42,831
before you tell someone
you're occupying their coastline.
537
00:25:42,832 --> 00:25:44,250
Or a hundred.
538
00:25:44,251 --> 00:25:45,668
Let's review them one by one.
539
00:25:45,669 --> 00:25:47,878
- I can't name them.
- I can.
540
00:25:47,879 --> 00:25:50,297
I decided to jump to the one that works.
541
00:25:50,298 --> 00:25:52,092
Warships?
542
00:25:52,592 --> 00:25:53,927
What are you proving?
543
00:25:54,928 --> 00:25:56,555
And to who?
544
00:25:57,097 --> 00:26:00,767
It's like you're trying to scare
your own shadow.
545
00:26:14,406 --> 00:26:15,407
Mm.
546
00:26:19,578 --> 00:26:21,245
Maybe it's the shooting.
547
00:26:21,246 --> 00:26:22,705
Maybe it's the job.
548
00:26:22,706 --> 00:26:24,457
Your behavior
549
00:26:25,292 --> 00:26:26,751
is different.
550
00:26:28,545 --> 00:26:31,256
Your decision-making is...
551
00:26:34,259 --> 00:26:36,094
You're not acting like you.
552
00:26:41,683 --> 00:26:44,519
Are you saying
there's something wrong with me
553
00:26:45,020 --> 00:26:46,271
mentally?
554
00:26:50,358 --> 00:26:53,402
I think we should let her eat
before we raise it.
555
00:26:53,403 --> 00:26:54,362
You?
556
00:26:54,863 --> 00:26:56,114
Yeah, before I raise it.
557
00:26:57,490 --> 00:26:59,450
She's in a gorgeous place.
558
00:26:59,451 --> 00:27:01,911
She had hours of downtime with Todd.
559
00:27:02,412 --> 00:27:03,912
Conditions could not be better.
560
00:27:03,913 --> 00:27:06,249
They'd be better
if she hadn't made the threat.
561
00:27:06,916 --> 00:27:09,210
She's not gonna love
being the woman who blinked.
562
00:27:10,837 --> 00:27:14,633
It's a good plan,
but she... she drew a red line, and...
563
00:27:15,216 --> 00:27:16,968
it'll cost her to erase it.
564
00:27:20,805 --> 00:27:21,806
What?
565
00:27:23,933 --> 00:27:27,227
- We agreed I get more wiggle room, right?
- Yeah.
566
00:27:27,228 --> 00:27:31,899
So me freelancing now and then is
back on the table?
567
00:27:31,900 --> 00:27:33,735
Be free. Go wild.
568
00:27:35,779 --> 00:27:37,364
I kind of already did.
569
00:27:39,115 --> 00:27:41,575
- Okay.
- But in a way you'll be happy about.
570
00:27:41,576 --> 00:27:43,036
I love it already.
571
00:27:44,329 --> 00:27:45,538
She's not blinking.
572
00:27:46,039 --> 00:27:48,874
It's only backing down
if she made a threat.
573
00:27:48,875 --> 00:27:50,835
Well, she did. You did.
574
00:27:51,336 --> 00:27:52,337
I didn't.
575
00:27:53,254 --> 00:27:55,715
I didn't deliver the message.
576
00:27:58,677 --> 00:28:01,136
I couldn't threaten the PM
with surface combatants
577
00:28:01,137 --> 00:28:03,263
on her third day in office.
578
00:28:03,264 --> 00:28:04,974
It would've gone down poorly.
579
00:28:06,476 --> 00:28:08,353
- Last night you said--
- Yeah.
580
00:28:09,854 --> 00:28:11,231
But that's not what happened.
581
00:28:13,149 --> 00:28:15,860
I decided to titrate
the message to Vaughn.
582
00:28:16,653 --> 00:28:18,946
I didn't wanna put a gun
to her head before we...
583
00:28:18,947 --> 00:28:21,324
or you, had a chance to talk to Grace.
584
00:28:23,284 --> 00:28:24,828
You lied to the president.
585
00:28:27,455 --> 00:28:29,457
What happens when she finds out?
586
00:28:31,501 --> 00:28:32,877
She made a bad call.
587
00:28:33,378 --> 00:28:36,630
Instead of dealing with the consequences,
she's got a clean slate.
588
00:28:36,631 --> 00:28:38,550
If I were her, I'd be relieved.
589
00:28:41,803 --> 00:28:45,682
When you asked for latitude
590
00:28:46,224 --> 00:28:47,308
because...
591
00:28:48,017 --> 00:28:49,560
I... I crushed you--
592
00:28:49,561 --> 00:28:53,356
- That's not what I said.
- When you let me apologize for...
593
00:28:54,357 --> 00:28:55,357
emotional abuse--
594
00:28:55,358 --> 00:28:56,275
Hal.
595
00:28:56,276 --> 00:28:59,611
...you were just looking for a way to say
you lied to the commander in chief
596
00:28:59,612 --> 00:29:01,029
and you wanted me for cover?
597
00:29:01,030 --> 00:29:04,199
You don't want American destroyers
shooting at Russians any more than I do.
598
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:06,786
- I thought we were rescuing our marriage.
- We were.
599
00:29:07,370 --> 00:29:08,245
We are.
600
00:29:08,246 --> 00:29:09,705
Jesus Christ.
601
00:29:09,706 --> 00:29:12,750
I didn't know you were gonna say
you thought you crushed me
602
00:29:12,751 --> 00:29:16,004
but were prepared
to let it ride for another three years.
603
00:29:16,796 --> 00:29:20,175
Hal, the things I said were real.
604
00:29:20,675 --> 00:29:21,551
I...
605
00:29:22,051 --> 00:29:24,344
I didn't know
you were gonna say what you said.
606
00:29:24,345 --> 00:29:26,472
That's not... wasn't my intention,
607
00:29:26,473 --> 00:29:28,599
but aren't you glad we got it out?
608
00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:31,102
- Don't pretend this is about our marriage.
- I'm not.
609
00:29:31,644 --> 00:29:32,979
She will assume I knew.
610
00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:35,105
If she finds out what you did,
611
00:29:35,106 --> 00:29:37,775
you will lose your job,
which is your choice.
612
00:29:37,776 --> 00:29:39,443
But to make me your accomplice?
613
00:29:39,444 --> 00:29:42,237
I'm making you suggest
something totally reasonable.
614
00:29:42,238 --> 00:29:45,366
If she thinks I was involved, I'm done.
615
00:29:47,076 --> 00:29:48,620
I have access.
616
00:29:49,162 --> 00:29:50,163
And a role.
617
00:29:51,289 --> 00:29:52,539
Are you mad I lied
618
00:29:52,540 --> 00:29:55,502
or that I jeopardized
your position with the president?
619
00:30:00,548 --> 00:30:02,007
Can we finish this?
620
00:30:02,008 --> 00:30:04,176
I would like to take a minute
before we get there
621
00:30:04,177 --> 00:30:08,056
to calm the fuck down,
so I don't show up looking homicidal.
622
00:30:19,359 --> 00:30:21,318
- I tried to push her out.
- It didn't work.
623
00:30:21,319 --> 00:30:22,694
A president dropped dead.
624
00:30:22,695 --> 00:30:24,488
I didn't think
accusing his replacement of--
625
00:30:24,489 --> 00:30:25,573
Of what?
626
00:30:27,700 --> 00:30:30,453
- I think it helps to say the word.
- She was president.
627
00:30:31,079 --> 00:30:33,288
- I was a guardrail.
- You were her right-hand man.
628
00:30:33,289 --> 00:30:36,375
- I tried to stop her and I couldn't.
- You could've stopped you.
629
00:30:36,376 --> 00:30:38,460
- It's not that simple.
- Of course it is.
630
00:30:38,461 --> 00:30:40,921
You made her president.
631
00:30:40,922 --> 00:30:42,674
A heart attack did that.
632
00:30:43,174 --> 00:30:44,174
And the Constitution.
633
00:30:44,175 --> 00:30:46,969
She wouldn't have lasted a month
without you.
634
00:30:46,970 --> 00:30:48,304
Please.
635
00:30:48,805 --> 00:30:50,305
You kept the lights on.
636
00:30:50,306 --> 00:30:52,808
Not for her, for the country.
637
00:30:52,809 --> 00:30:55,185
- Really?
- You don't just take down a president.
638
00:30:55,186 --> 00:30:56,813
You take down
639
00:30:57,814 --> 00:30:59,190
a policy agenda
640
00:30:59,691 --> 00:31:01,066
and the stock market
641
00:31:01,067 --> 00:31:02,192
and the dollar.
642
00:31:02,193 --> 00:31:04,863
She's unfit for office.
643
00:31:10,034 --> 00:31:11,827
- Come on in.
- Hi, there.
644
00:31:11,828 --> 00:31:13,745
Bevenutto a tutto!
645
00:31:13,746 --> 00:31:15,664
- Thank you.
- I'm coming. Coming.
646
00:31:15,665 --> 00:31:16,749
Guess who.
647
00:31:17,709 --> 00:31:18,834
Hello.
648
00:31:18,835 --> 00:31:20,086
- Welcome.
- Thank you.
649
00:31:23,590 --> 00:31:26,342
Oh okay.
650
00:31:27,051 --> 00:31:28,802
- Please.
- Todd went to one of those schools
651
00:31:28,803 --> 00:31:31,889
where they taught Latin and believed
it would be more than a party trick.
652
00:31:31,890 --> 00:31:33,056
It's not Latin.
653
00:31:33,057 --> 00:31:34,433
- What is it?
- One guess.
654
00:31:34,434 --> 00:31:36,352
I did guess. I guessed Latin.
655
00:31:36,895 --> 00:31:38,478
- Is it?
- I think she should guess.
656
00:31:38,479 --> 00:31:40,230
It's a... It's a one-guess guess.
657
00:31:40,231 --> 00:31:41,315
Clearly not.
658
00:31:41,316 --> 00:31:43,400
- It is for Hal.
- You don't know what he's guessing.
659
00:31:43,401 --> 00:31:45,652
You wouldn't even let him finish
his thought. In a turn.
660
00:31:45,653 --> 00:31:47,113
I feel like he got it.
661
00:31:52,702 --> 00:31:55,162
- Italian.
- Ah.
662
00:31:55,163 --> 00:31:57,331
- Dante.
- Oh yeah?
663
00:31:57,332 --> 00:32:00,001
"Abandon all hope, ye who enter here."
664
00:32:00,501 --> 00:32:01,502
Who wants a Negroni?
665
00:32:02,128 --> 00:32:03,838
- Me.
- Todd's mixing.
666
00:32:05,214 --> 00:32:10,218
We have a trad Negroni,
a fizzy Negroni, and a phony Negroni.
667
00:32:10,219 --> 00:32:11,303
Foamy?
668
00:32:11,304 --> 00:32:12,763
- Phony.
- Phony.
669
00:32:12,764 --> 00:32:14,097
- Alcohol-free.
- Smart.
670
00:32:14,098 --> 00:32:15,724
Not that he's trying to tell
anyone anything.
671
00:32:15,725 --> 00:32:17,059
What can I get you?
672
00:32:17,060 --> 00:32:19,938
Uh, I... I think, old-school.
673
00:32:20,855 --> 00:32:23,399
- Ambassador?
- I'll have a sip of Hal's.
674
00:32:23,983 --> 00:32:25,525
You've had them before.
675
00:32:25,526 --> 00:32:28,153
Yeah, but I can never quite decide
if I like them.
676
00:32:28,154 --> 00:32:30,614
I feel like the man wants his own drink.
How about a fizzy?
677
00:32:30,615 --> 00:32:32,199
- Sure.
- Not phony?
678
00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:35,118
Uh, yeah, I guess,
since it's a work night.
679
00:32:35,119 --> 00:32:37,705
I bet you can handle it,
even on a work night.
680
00:32:39,207 --> 00:32:41,625
- Okay.
- I don't know where we are anymore.
681
00:32:41,626 --> 00:32:42,709
Fizzy, please.
682
00:32:42,710 --> 00:32:44,795
- Traditional for me.
- Already guessed.
683
00:32:44,796 --> 00:32:47,256
- Was it a one-guess guess?
- Sure was.
684
00:32:48,257 --> 00:32:51,760
I'm gonna get some fresh basil
for the drinks. Wanna see the greenhouse?
685
00:32:51,761 --> 00:32:53,012
I'd love to.
686
00:33:01,437 --> 00:33:03,690
I didn't know basil went in Negronis.
687
00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:05,441
It doesn't.
688
00:33:06,109 --> 00:33:07,110
Oh.
689
00:33:08,653 --> 00:33:09,779
You wanna tell her?
690
00:33:11,614 --> 00:33:12,614
No.
691
00:33:12,615 --> 00:33:14,075
Neither do I.
692
00:33:16,786 --> 00:33:17,953
So beautiful.
693
00:33:17,954 --> 00:33:19,997
- How's your villa?
- Oh, gorgeous.
694
00:33:19,998 --> 00:33:21,666
The whole place is.
695
00:33:22,208 --> 00:33:23,917
Ours has these lemon trees.
696
00:33:23,918 --> 00:33:25,211
Was he a nightmare?
697
00:33:25,712 --> 00:33:27,255
- What?
- Todd.
698
00:33:27,755 --> 00:33:28,755
I'm so sorry.
699
00:33:28,756 --> 00:33:30,882
No. No, no, no, he was fine.
700
00:33:30,883 --> 00:33:32,509
- You've been a good sport.
- No.
701
00:33:32,510 --> 00:33:34,636
Honestly, I didn't know what else to do.
702
00:33:34,637 --> 00:33:37,597
Well, he needed a break from me,
which I understand.
703
00:33:37,598 --> 00:33:39,558
I could also use a break from me.
704
00:33:39,559 --> 00:33:41,268
He's also got this burgeoning neurosis
705
00:33:41,269 --> 00:33:43,729
about not being relevant
or useful or in it.
706
00:33:43,730 --> 00:33:44,688
Of course.
707
00:33:44,689 --> 00:33:46,440
- Since the shooting, it's been--
- I'm sure.
708
00:33:46,441 --> 00:33:47,649
...through the roof.
709
00:33:47,650 --> 00:33:49,443
And normal.
710
00:33:49,444 --> 00:33:51,695
I thought you'd get it
and be able to manage it.
711
00:33:51,696 --> 00:33:52,821
Happy to.
712
00:33:52,822 --> 00:33:56,116
But he's got this way of seeming
warm and agreeable
713
00:33:56,117 --> 00:33:59,077
while doggedly driving a person
out of their mind.
714
00:33:59,078 --> 00:34:00,162
No.
715
00:34:00,163 --> 00:34:02,372
I... enjoy having him.
716
00:34:02,373 --> 00:34:05,500
He's learning and interested.
717
00:34:05,501 --> 00:34:07,878
And imperious
and believes he's insightful,
718
00:34:07,879 --> 00:34:11,507
but is, in fact,
chronically four degrees off the mark.
719
00:34:12,925 --> 00:34:16,429
- Ma'am...
- No, I'm just saying I understand.
720
00:34:19,974 --> 00:34:21,893
Can I... for a second?
721
00:34:22,393 --> 00:34:23,394
You may.
722
00:34:24,645 --> 00:34:26,855
I was worried at first
723
00:34:26,856 --> 00:34:28,607
for a lot of reasons.
724
00:34:28,608 --> 00:34:30,400
I can't even imagine.
725
00:34:30,401 --> 00:34:31,526
Ma'am...
726
00:34:31,527 --> 00:34:32,612
Your turn.
727
00:34:34,989 --> 00:34:36,948
But then we spent some time together
728
00:34:36,949 --> 00:34:39,702
and talked about how it might work.
729
00:34:40,703 --> 00:34:41,912
He knows the system.
730
00:34:41,913 --> 00:34:44,206
He makes people comfortable.
731
00:34:44,207 --> 00:34:46,750
He's got a serious intellect
and good judgment,
732
00:34:46,751 --> 00:34:50,504
and he can keep a bunch
of contradictory ideas in his head
733
00:34:50,505 --> 00:34:52,672
at the same time without short-circuiting,
734
00:34:52,673 --> 00:34:54,926
which is kind of the whole ball game.
735
00:34:55,426 --> 00:34:56,551
Really?
736
00:34:56,552 --> 00:34:57,969
Yeah. No kidding.
737
00:34:57,970 --> 00:35:00,515
But you didn't take him with you
to talk to the PM.
738
00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:06,521
No.
739
00:35:07,105 --> 00:35:09,189
He thinks you snuck out
in the dark of night,
740
00:35:09,190 --> 00:35:11,109
which I'm sure is hyperbolic.
741
00:35:12,735 --> 00:35:14,569
It was evening.
742
00:35:14,570 --> 00:35:17,572
I think "sneak" is not
how I would characterize it.
743
00:35:17,573 --> 00:35:19,075
You didn't want him there.
744
00:35:19,867 --> 00:35:20,951
No, I didn't.
745
00:35:20,952 --> 00:35:22,244
Despite his keen intellect
746
00:35:22,245 --> 00:35:24,914
and rare ability to hold two thoughts
at the same time.
747
00:35:26,833 --> 00:35:31,212
I thought a one-on-one with the PM
would be the most productive.
748
00:35:31,796 --> 00:35:32,921
Just the gals.
749
00:35:32,922 --> 00:35:35,924
- As apparently you did.
- But you didn't tell him that.
750
00:35:35,925 --> 00:35:37,426
You pulled a runner.
751
00:35:38,678 --> 00:35:40,095
It unfolded quickly.
752
00:35:40,096 --> 00:35:43,598
Kate, I sent you my husband,
who was having self-esteem issues,
753
00:35:43,599 --> 00:35:45,976
and you generated an audience
with the king of England,
754
00:35:45,977 --> 00:35:47,310
so you could get real work done--
755
00:35:47,311 --> 00:35:48,311
That's not--
756
00:35:48,312 --> 00:35:51,773
Now I have a husband
with bigger self-esteem issues.
757
00:35:51,774 --> 00:35:54,235
I am so sorry.
758
00:35:54,735 --> 00:35:57,988
So, nimble intellect
and nuanced judgment was a load of crap.
759
00:35:57,989 --> 00:35:59,823
No, it wasn't.
760
00:35:59,824 --> 00:36:03,161
You continuing to lie to me is not
a boon to our relationship.
761
00:36:03,870 --> 00:36:05,370
We disagreed on the substance,
762
00:36:05,371 --> 00:36:08,373
which I would love to say
he didn't understand, but he did.
763
00:36:08,374 --> 00:36:12,794
He was four degrees off, not because
he couldn't track the argument,
764
00:36:12,795 --> 00:36:17,717
but because we had different ideas
about how to communicate your message.
765
00:36:18,301 --> 00:36:22,180
He's smart and perceptive, and...
766
00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:25,975
my life would've been easier
if he'd been slightly less so.
767
00:36:40,740 --> 00:36:42,950
Return of the hunter-gatherers.
768
00:36:43,951 --> 00:36:45,119
Which one is mine?
769
00:36:46,245 --> 00:36:47,246
That one.
770
00:36:48,789 --> 00:36:50,249
Successful mission?
771
00:36:54,503 --> 00:36:55,504
Thank you.
772
00:36:58,382 --> 00:36:59,383
Please.
773
00:36:59,967 --> 00:37:01,343
Releases the oils.
774
00:37:01,344 --> 00:37:02,803
- It's so fragrant.
- Right?
775
00:37:03,888 --> 00:37:05,973
I think none for me.
776
00:37:08,351 --> 00:37:09,352
You sure?
777
00:37:11,896 --> 00:37:12,897
Thank you.
778
00:37:17,568 --> 00:37:18,610
Forgot you.
779
00:37:18,611 --> 00:37:20,153
I don't like basil.
780
00:37:20,154 --> 00:37:21,405
Don't like the smell.
781
00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:29,037
- The ambassador thinks you are a smarty.
- I am?
782
00:37:29,038 --> 00:37:30,790
Doesn't come as a surprise.
783
00:37:31,374 --> 00:37:32,374
Incisive,
784
00:37:32,375 --> 00:37:35,418
which I claimed you were not,
as only true love can.
785
00:37:35,419 --> 00:37:36,628
Feels good, babe.
786
00:37:36,629 --> 00:37:38,546
She seems to think you have a firm grasp
787
00:37:38,547 --> 00:37:41,509
on the complexity of the situation
off the British coast.
788
00:37:42,760 --> 00:37:44,928
I uncharitably claimed
789
00:37:44,929 --> 00:37:46,596
Todd was out of his depth,
790
00:37:46,597 --> 00:37:49,557
and she corrected me... twice.
791
00:37:49,558 --> 00:37:51,101
She's being polite.
792
00:37:51,102 --> 00:37:52,769
I think it's true.
793
00:37:52,770 --> 00:37:54,771
- Truth.
- Grace.
794
00:37:54,772 --> 00:37:59,109
Todd thinks my strategy vis-a-vis the UK
in this game of footsie with Russia
795
00:37:59,110 --> 00:38:00,193
is a stinker.
796
00:38:00,194 --> 00:38:03,029
Did you know the venue
for the conference used to be
797
00:38:03,030 --> 00:38:05,156
Napoleon's sister's summer house?
798
00:38:05,157 --> 00:38:07,951
I was working under the impression
that he didn't really get it,
799
00:38:07,952 --> 00:38:11,247
but the ambassador twice insisted he did.
800
00:38:12,540 --> 00:38:14,583
So we're stuck with stinker.
801
00:38:15,084 --> 00:38:16,042
That's not what I said.
802
00:38:16,043 --> 00:38:17,836
You said there was
something wrong with me.
803
00:38:17,837 --> 00:38:19,546
- No.
- Off?
804
00:38:19,547 --> 00:38:21,923
- If tonight isn't a good night--
- Cuckoo?
805
00:38:21,924 --> 00:38:23,758
You're jet lagged. You don't need company.
806
00:38:23,759 --> 00:38:25,343
Different. Would that be fair?
807
00:38:25,344 --> 00:38:28,597
- We are really not gonna be offended.
- I'm offended.
808
00:38:30,683 --> 00:38:32,559
He's had an official post
for a week and a half,
809
00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:35,855
and his conclusion is
I got shot and lost my mind.
810
00:38:36,439 --> 00:38:38,940
That's a very special envoy
811
00:38:38,941 --> 00:38:41,026
delivering that message to the world.
812
00:38:41,027 --> 00:38:42,278
But he didn't.
813
00:38:42,778 --> 00:38:45,739
You had to hog-tie him with a cummerbund
and hustle out the back door.
814
00:38:45,740 --> 00:38:49,702
He would have said exactly
what you wanted him to say, word for word.
815
00:38:50,786 --> 00:38:52,454
So why didn't you take him?
816
00:38:52,455 --> 00:38:56,166
Ma'am, Kate and the PM discussed a plan
I think is a sound one.
817
00:38:56,167 --> 00:38:59,210
If we and the Brits extract the bodies
from the sub ourselves,
818
00:38:59,211 --> 00:39:01,629
the Russians have no excuse
to get anywhere near it.
819
00:39:01,630 --> 00:39:03,381
Vaughn's a reasonable person.
820
00:39:03,382 --> 00:39:04,799
Get in the room, look her in the eye,
821
00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:08,012
you're gonna get on like a house on fire,
the whole thing's over.
822
00:39:09,138 --> 00:39:11,723
- Why didn't you take him?
- This is a distraction.
823
00:39:11,724 --> 00:39:13,850
And it's a concern
I've had from the get-go.
824
00:39:13,851 --> 00:39:18,146
We both have spouses
who are smart and capable,
825
00:39:18,147 --> 00:39:19,564
and they see around corners.
826
00:39:19,565 --> 00:39:21,608
You get two people seeing around corners,
827
00:39:21,609 --> 00:39:23,526
you're gonna have collisions
that are unnecessary.
828
00:39:23,527 --> 00:39:25,487
Everyone's nose is
halfway around the corner.
829
00:39:25,488 --> 00:39:29,408
If you see around the corner,
you don't collide, is...
830
00:39:29,992 --> 00:39:32,744
I think the value
of seeing around corners.
831
00:39:32,745 --> 00:39:35,413
- Could we let her answer the question?
- I'd rather not.
832
00:39:35,414 --> 00:39:36,790
- I got that.
- Ma'am--
833
00:39:36,791 --> 00:39:39,376
The issue wasn't
that Todd didn't like the plan.
834
00:39:39,377 --> 00:39:41,712
The issue was that I didn't.
835
00:39:49,595 --> 00:39:52,181
I didn't wanna say
what you told me to say.
836
00:39:56,185 --> 00:39:57,269
But you did.
837
00:39:58,229 --> 00:39:59,772
No, I didn't.
838
00:40:05,152 --> 00:40:07,737
Forgive me
if I can interrupt for one moment.
839
00:40:07,738 --> 00:40:11,783
Signore e signori, eh,
my name is Chef Agosti,
840
00:40:11,784 --> 00:40:13,618
Filippo Agosti,
841
00:40:13,619 --> 00:40:17,330
and I have the great honor
of preparing your meal tonight,
842
00:40:17,331 --> 00:40:20,917
a light and fresh essence
of the Tuscan spirit.
843
00:40:20,918 --> 00:40:22,961
We begin with the crostini di fegatini,
844
00:40:22,962 --> 00:40:26,381
a spread from chicken livers on toast.
845
00:40:26,382 --> 00:40:27,632
For the gentleman,
846
00:40:27,633 --> 00:40:31,010
we also have gluten-free toast
baked here in our own kitchen.
847
00:40:31,011 --> 00:40:34,139
We have a separate surface
for the gluten-free dough,
848
00:40:34,140 --> 00:40:37,643
so we have no worries
about cross-contamination and...
849
00:40:45,151 --> 00:40:47,069
She doesn't like crostini.
850
00:40:48,112 --> 00:40:51,115
But the liver
I'll bet she'll eat with a spoon.
851
00:40:58,247 --> 00:40:59,415
Are we gonna be okay?
852
00:41:02,418 --> 00:41:03,461
I don't know.
853
00:41:05,171 --> 00:41:07,089
I think I'm getting tired of okay.
854
00:41:10,176 --> 00:41:11,676
Ma'am, sorry to interrupt.
855
00:41:11,677 --> 00:41:12,761
Don't be.
856
00:41:13,262 --> 00:41:14,888
She wants to talk to you.
857
00:41:14,889 --> 00:41:17,098
Secure line or sat phone?
858
00:41:17,099 --> 00:41:20,102
In person. She needs an update
on the North Sea situation.
859
00:41:28,486 --> 00:41:31,321
You didn't like my plan,
so you made up your own.
860
00:41:31,322 --> 00:41:33,072
Ma'am, respectfully...
861
00:41:33,073 --> 00:41:35,700
- I feel respected.
- This happens.
862
00:41:35,701 --> 00:41:38,328
Presidents make muscular statements,
863
00:41:38,329 --> 00:41:41,581
and ambassadors need to assess,
looking the person in the face,
864
00:41:41,582 --> 00:41:43,583
if it's gonna go down like a lead balloon,
865
00:41:43,584 --> 00:41:47,670
in which case you soften the message
or you deliver it incrementally.
866
00:41:47,671 --> 00:41:48,796
Or not at all.
867
00:41:48,797 --> 00:41:52,175
Not when there's a solve on the table
that'll take us off war footing.
868
00:41:52,176 --> 00:41:55,595
A solve that this side never heard
and the other side rejected.
869
00:41:55,596 --> 00:41:57,013
If it comes from you--
870
00:41:57,014 --> 00:41:58,932
I'm so magic, I can sell anything.
871
00:41:58,933 --> 00:42:01,142
The solve will sell coming from you.
872
00:42:01,143 --> 00:42:04,062
If she rejects it,
the threat will sell coming from you.
873
00:42:04,063 --> 00:42:06,065
So what in God's name are you good for?
874
00:42:07,566 --> 00:42:11,027
Ma'am, Kate had genuine concerns
875
00:42:11,028 --> 00:42:12,695
and not illegitimate
876
00:42:12,696 --> 00:42:16,241
that the message
in its purest form was legally...
877
00:42:16,242 --> 00:42:18,452
Il... legal.
878
00:42:19,537 --> 00:42:21,746
It was not illegal, but...
879
00:42:21,747 --> 00:42:23,331
- Immoral?
- Tenuous.
880
00:42:23,332 --> 00:42:27,168
So in order to protect me,
you didn't say what I asked you to say
881
00:42:27,169 --> 00:42:29,295
and then lied to me about it,
882
00:42:29,296 --> 00:42:30,630
which is my favorite part.
883
00:42:30,631 --> 00:42:31,965
I wasn't crazy about it either.
884
00:42:31,966 --> 00:42:33,341
- Speaking of crazy--
- Grace.
885
00:42:33,342 --> 00:42:34,926
...raise your hand if you think
886
00:42:34,927 --> 00:42:37,929
the strategy was
legally tenuous and ill-advised
887
00:42:37,930 --> 00:42:40,015
because there's
something wrong with the president.
888
00:42:42,226 --> 00:42:43,936
- Nobody thinks that.
- They do.
889
00:42:45,229 --> 00:42:47,522
You're tap-dancing so fast
you're gonna pop a hernia.
890
00:42:47,523 --> 00:42:49,107
I'm tap-dancing
891
00:42:49,108 --> 00:42:52,360
because my wife has generated
a breach of trust
892
00:42:52,361 --> 00:42:56,531
that I'm scared out of my mind
will destroy the partnership
893
00:42:56,532 --> 00:43:00,243
that you and I have forged
through dialogue and candor.
894
00:43:00,244 --> 00:43:03,080
Of course they think
there's something wrong with you.
895
00:43:06,625 --> 00:43:09,085
You got shot, and your behavior changed.
896
00:43:09,086 --> 00:43:10,545
- I need you to leave.
- Hal...
897
00:43:10,546 --> 00:43:12,214
- Immediately.
- No.
898
00:43:13,007 --> 00:43:14,341
Let's talk about it.
899
00:43:14,925 --> 00:43:15,883
I mean it.
900
00:43:15,884 --> 00:43:19,138
I have been giving Todd shit all day
for even hinting at it.
901
00:43:19,638 --> 00:43:23,182
I think it's time we face the idea
that I may be off.
902
00:43:23,183 --> 00:43:24,517
That's not what I'm saying.
903
00:43:24,518 --> 00:43:27,021
How about for right now,
this is an open forum.
904
00:43:29,064 --> 00:43:30,316
Safe space.
905
00:43:31,317 --> 00:43:32,400
No one believes that.
906
00:43:32,401 --> 00:43:34,069
Don't be an asshole.
907
00:43:34,570 --> 00:43:36,113
Open forum.
908
00:43:54,173 --> 00:43:55,591
Okay, forget it.
909
00:44:01,639 --> 00:44:03,222
The HMS Courageous...
910
00:44:03,223 --> 00:44:05,601
- I am begging you.
- Hal?
911
00:44:07,102 --> 00:44:09,103
My understanding is
912
00:44:09,104 --> 00:44:13,900
the HMS Courageous was
a risky but reasonable operation
913
00:44:13,901 --> 00:44:17,111
with a low probability
of catastrophic failure,
914
00:44:17,112 --> 00:44:19,865
and everything that could go wrong did.
915
00:44:20,449 --> 00:44:21,742
Fair?
916
00:44:22,785 --> 00:44:23,786
Yes.
917
00:44:24,620 --> 00:44:27,372
My understanding
of the current operation--
918
00:44:27,373 --> 00:44:28,957
It's not operative.
919
00:44:31,543 --> 00:44:35,464
The potential consequence I was asked
to share with Prime Minister Vaughn
920
00:44:35,964 --> 00:44:38,549
does not carry low-probability risk.
921
00:44:38,550 --> 00:44:42,887
It carries significant danger
of igniting armed confrontation
922
00:44:42,888 --> 00:44:45,099
between not only two allies,
923
00:44:45,599 --> 00:44:47,892
but also two superpowers,
924
00:44:47,893 --> 00:44:50,978
which hasn't happened in 80 years.
925
00:44:50,979 --> 00:44:52,480
Sounds crazy.
926
00:44:52,481 --> 00:44:53,564
Ma'am,
927
00:44:53,565 --> 00:44:55,900
everyone at the table is terrified.
928
00:44:55,901 --> 00:44:58,028
We can do this or not.
929
00:45:01,949 --> 00:45:03,659
Go ahead. I'm sorry.
930
00:45:08,288 --> 00:45:09,707
Actually, I'm sorry.
931
00:45:12,126 --> 00:45:14,920
When they named me Grace,
it was aspirational.
932
00:45:16,255 --> 00:45:17,256
Go ahead.
933
00:45:20,259 --> 00:45:21,927
Your tolerance
934
00:45:22,511 --> 00:45:24,638
for risk to human life
935
00:45:26,932 --> 00:45:28,726
seems higher than it was.
936
00:45:31,186 --> 00:45:34,148
Before I was president
or before I got shot?
937
00:45:34,732 --> 00:45:35,816
Which one?
938
00:45:41,280 --> 00:45:44,783
Anyone can chime in here.
I feel like I warmed up the table.
939
00:45:46,660 --> 00:45:50,330
It was a question.
I just asked the question.
940
00:45:51,540 --> 00:45:54,375
The fact that it got a rise out of you...
941
00:45:54,376 --> 00:45:55,918
Suggests you're onto something.
942
00:45:55,919 --> 00:45:57,171
You tell me.
943
00:45:59,006 --> 00:46:00,215
Say no,
944
00:46:00,716 --> 00:46:02,050
we all move on.
945
00:46:04,386 --> 00:46:05,471
You sleep less.
946
00:46:06,221 --> 00:46:07,890
You're in pain more.
947
00:46:08,390 --> 00:46:11,185
You're making big moves unilaterally
948
00:46:11,852 --> 00:46:16,273
that bear the most potential consequence
for the country where you got shot.
949
00:46:18,609 --> 00:46:21,152
You expressed some reticence
about my North Sea strategy.
950
00:46:21,153 --> 00:46:23,113
Gonna let her take all the heat?
951
00:46:26,617 --> 00:46:28,786
It's his job to worry about you.
952
00:46:29,661 --> 00:46:32,246
You can make him envoy.
It's not gonna change anything.
953
00:46:32,247 --> 00:46:37,336
He swore to a God he may even believe in
that he'd worry about you his whole life.
954
00:46:38,420 --> 00:46:39,838
The ambassador
955
00:46:40,422 --> 00:46:41,465
got worried.
956
00:46:41,965 --> 00:46:43,383
That's her job.
957
00:46:45,135 --> 00:46:47,054
And then she said so. That's her job.
958
00:46:48,305 --> 00:46:51,891
And then she got creative
with the message,
959
00:46:51,892 --> 00:46:56,104
which she learned from the best,
and that's also her job.
960
00:47:01,235 --> 00:47:03,153
But then she lied to you...
961
00:47:05,155 --> 00:47:06,697
which is not.
962
00:47:06,698 --> 00:47:08,283
Hello, hello.
963
00:47:10,702 --> 00:47:11,703
Hi.
964
00:47:12,496 --> 00:47:14,288
- Have a seat.
- I'll get another chair.
965
00:47:14,289 --> 00:47:15,541
Unnecessary.
966
00:47:23,340 --> 00:47:24,841
I'm more expedient than I was,
967
00:47:24,842 --> 00:47:27,426
not because a bad man shot me,
968
00:47:27,427 --> 00:47:30,054
because if I don't make
a timely decision here,
969
00:47:30,055 --> 00:47:32,391
the wheels come off over there.
970
00:47:32,933 --> 00:47:34,600
And the wheels may be a G7,
971
00:47:34,601 --> 00:47:37,603
or the wheels may be
the massacre of tiny children
972
00:47:37,604 --> 00:47:41,316
that I could have helped divert
if only it had a scrap of my attention.
973
00:47:42,526 --> 00:47:44,235
Tomorrow, I want the Brits to be informed
974
00:47:44,236 --> 00:47:46,404
if they don't halt
the Russian advance, I will,
975
00:47:46,405 --> 00:47:48,197
using the armed naval assets
976
00:47:48,198 --> 00:47:50,700
that will most effectively
complete the task.
977
00:47:50,701 --> 00:47:52,661
I believe I've said this before.
978
00:47:53,745 --> 00:47:55,205
And now I'm saying it again.
979
00:47:56,540 --> 00:47:57,540
Yes, ma'am.
980
00:47:57,541 --> 00:47:59,167
Todd will deliver the message.
981
00:48:05,549 --> 00:48:08,510
I'm grateful for your service.
Good night, Ambassador.
982
00:48:30,157 --> 00:48:31,158
Have a seat.
983
00:48:38,206 --> 00:48:41,793
I have another copy in here.
984
00:48:42,502 --> 00:48:43,837
Not sure if I have two.
985
00:48:46,006 --> 00:48:47,215
Good night.
