<i>( theme music playing )</i>

2
00:00:17,018 --> 00:00:19,518
( sirens wailing )

3
00:00:20,187 --> 00:00:24,123
- ( crowd cheering ) - Tom: This is
so amazing. It is. And how are you?

4
00:00:24,125 --> 00:00:25,157
( both laughing )

5
00:00:25,159 --> 00:00:26,759
Hey, how are you?
Do you work out?

6
00:00:26,761 --> 00:00:29,128
- You do.
- Thank you. How are you?

7
00:00:29,130 --> 00:00:30,829
Are you two
going to get married?

8
00:00:30,831 --> 00:00:33,432
- Who?
- She's way out of my league.

9
00:00:33,434 --> 00:00:34,933
That's the correct answer.

10
00:00:34,935 --> 00:00:37,569
- We love you, Tom James.
- Thank you. Love you, too.

11
00:00:37,571 --> 00:00:39,271
I mean, within
obviously acceptable

12
00:00:39,273 --> 00:00:41,507
propriety and so on.
Hey, nice to meet you.

13
00:00:41,509 --> 00:00:43,509
President's gonna love
these headlines.

14
00:00:43,511 --> 00:00:46,211
- "Dream Ticket."
- ( laughing )

15
00:00:46,213 --> 00:00:47,980
"Dynamic Duo."

16
00:00:47,982 --> 00:00:51,216
"Tom James,
Best POTUS We Never Had."

17
00:00:51,218 --> 00:00:53,085
Okay, please don't
show her that one.

18
00:00:53,087 --> 00:00:55,421
Pennsylvania, I wish
we didn't have to go.

19
00:00:55,423 --> 00:00:58,557
And how great
is Tom James, right?

20
00:00:58,559 --> 00:00:59,958
<i>We'll see you guys soon.</i>

21
00:00:59,960 --> 00:01:02,694
If I have any more
of those funnel cakes,

22
00:01:02,696 --> 00:01:04,897
I won't be able to fit
through the bus door.

23
00:01:04,899 --> 00:01:06,131
( crowd laughs )

24
00:01:06,133 --> 00:01:09,301
It's true. Those funnel
cakes are just great.

25
00:01:09,303 --> 00:01:12,337
We'll see you guys soon.
Thank you.
26
00:01:12,339 --> 00:01:14,039
You won't be able to miss us.

27
00:01:14,041 --> 00:01:15,007
( crowd laughing )

28
00:01:15,009 --> 00:01:20,179
It's true because if... we'll eat
them and then we'll get so fat.

29
00:01:20,181 --> 00:01:22,481
So fat.
Thank you.

30
00:01:22,483 --> 00:01:25,918
Thank you. No, don't talk anymore.
No.

31
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:28,654
( sirens wailing )

32
00:01:28,923 --> 00:01:33,592
No, what I said was Amy Brookheimer
had issues, not problems.

33
00:01:33,594 --> 00:01:36,428
No, she got mad.
She's not mentally mad.

34
00:01:36,430 --> 00:01:37,196
Great crowds, right?

35
00:01:37,198 --> 00:01:40,799
I mean, you are box office
platinum, my friend.

36
00:01:40,801 --> 00:01:43,068
Madam President,
I am here to serve.

37
00:01:43,070 --> 00:01:44,436
You are the sun, I the moon.

38
00:01:44,438 --> 00:01:47,106
Of Jupiter. Not even
one of the good ones.
39
00:01:47,108 --> 00:01:47,906
Get up.

40
00:01:47,908 --> 00:01:50,476
"New York Times" profile
on Tom is just out.

41
00:01:50,478 --> 00:01:53,879
It's great. Should be
called the "New York Toms."

42
00:01:53,881 --> 00:01:55,247
Let me see.

43
00:01:55,249 --> 00:01:59,918
"Four years away has given James
a firm grip on the real world.

44
00:01:59,920 --> 00:02:02,554
A lone wolf,
he gets it done himself

45
00:02:02,556 --> 00:02:04,623
without yes-men
and flunkies."

46
00:02:04,625 --> 00:02:08,026
You know, a wolf
is actually a pack animal.

47
00:02:08,028 --> 00:02:09,695
I'm more of a lone squirrel.

48
00:02:09,697 --> 00:02:14,266
You both need to choose bicycles
for the Bike For Health event.

49
00:02:14,268 --> 00:02:16,034
Mountain bike,
road bike, whatever.

50
00:02:16,036 --> 00:02:19,404
Fun fact...
The Wright brothers

51
00:02:19,406 --> 00:02:22,808
used their bicycle repair shop
to make the first airplane.

52
00:02:22,810 --> 00:02:24,209
- I knew that.
- ( phone rings )

53
00:02:24,211 --> 00:02:26,612
- Yeah, Liam. Thanks for calling back.
- Get up.

54
00:02:26,614 --> 00:02:30,082
Fun fact... we're running a
campaign here, not a bake sale.

55
00:02:30,084 --> 00:02:32,084
Kent:
<i>Exactly right.</i>

56
00:02:32,086 --> 00:02:33,418
Hey, what's going on?

57
00:02:33,420 --> 00:02:37,289
There is sexual
tension on this bus.

58
00:02:37,291 --> 00:02:38,123
From?

59
00:02:38,125 --> 00:02:39,725
( scoffs )
Tom.

60
00:02:39,727 --> 00:02:42,361
( gasps )
Towards?

61
00:02:42,363 --> 00:02:43,495
- Me.
- Right.

62
00:02:43,497 --> 00:02:46,131
Did you get a load of that
lone squirrel comment?

63
00:02:46,133 --> 00:02:47,466
- Oh, my God.
- Did you hear that?

64
00:02:47,468 --> 00:02:48,600
- And that means?
- Exactly.

65
00:02:48,602 --> 00:02:51,436
- Exactly.
- And you saw the way he crossed his legs

66
00:02:51,438 --> 00:02:53,038
towards me
as soon as I sat down?

67
00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:55,007
- Totally. Totally.
- Did you see that? God.

68
00:02:55,009 --> 00:02:56,708
See, the thing is, I never...

69
00:02:56,710 --> 00:02:59,811
- I never told you this, but...
- Yeah, yeah, yeah?

70
00:02:59,813 --> 00:03:02,848
- I think it was about 12 years ago.
- Uh-huh.

71
00:03:02,850 --> 00:03:05,450
- We almost...
- Kissed?

72
00:03:05,452 --> 00:03:06,618
- Fucked.
- Okay.

73
00:03:06,620 --> 00:03:09,221
- Ma'am, Ben's on the phone.
- Oh.

74
00:03:09,223 --> 00:03:10,889
We got a storm brewing, ma'am.

75
00:03:10,891 --> 00:03:13,058
Is it Israel or is it China?
76
00:03:13,060 --> 00:03:14,726
Ben: <i>No, it's an
actual hurricane.</i>

77
00:03:14,728 --> 00:03:17,062
And it's about to take
North Carolina from behind.

78
00:03:17,064 --> 00:03:19,898
I guess I have to get there after
the hurricane's passed, right?

79
00:03:19,900 --> 00:03:22,501
Ma'am, we can track the storm from here.
I have a weather app.

80
00:03:22,503 --> 00:03:25,370
We have the full power of the
National Weather Service, Mike.

81
00:03:25,372 --> 00:03:27,406
Sure, but this is
a really good app.

82
00:03:27,408 --> 00:03:29,107
- Uh-huh.
- Ben:<i> We'll be in touch.</i>

83
00:03:29,109 --> 00:03:30,709
Stay close to the Bat Phone.

84
00:03:30,711 --> 00:03:32,311
Mike, listen.

85
00:03:32,313 --> 00:03:34,980
I want you to get more
op-ed pieces out there

86
00:03:34,982 --> 00:03:38,584
about how my choosing Tom
was an act of real vision

87
00:03:38,586 --> 00:03:39,985
and real leadership, okay?

88
00:03:39,987 --> 00:03:42,888
I've been pushing, ma'am, but
they're gaga over Tom James.

89
00:03:42,890 --> 00:03:46,425
People love Tom, but I want to
get credit for choosing him.

90
00:03:46,427 --> 00:03:48,727
- Yes, ma'am.
- Headline thought.

91
00:03:48,729 --> 00:03:50,729
I want more headlines.

92
00:03:50,731 --> 00:03:51,930
- Yes, ma'am.
- Yes.

93
00:03:51,932 --> 00:03:55,634
- You want to see the storm?
- No.

94
00:03:56,403 --> 00:03:58,770
- Hey, Sue.
- Sir.

95
00:03:58,772 --> 00:04:02,174
- Keeping busy?
- Yes.

96
00:04:03,911 --> 00:04:05,377
So quiet in here.

97
00:04:05,379 --> 00:04:08,113
It's like a morgue
full of dead librarians.

98
00:04:08,115 --> 00:04:09,314
I happen to like the quiet, sir.

99
00:04:09,316 --> 00:04:12,451
It allows me to get things done
when I am busy like I am now.

100
00:04:12,453 --> 00:04:16,255
Yeah, I miss everybody,
even Kent.

101
00:04:18,225 --> 00:04:23,795
Well, great struggling
to talk to you.

102
00:04:24,331 --> 00:04:26,098
Oh, God, this place
has been dead

103
00:04:26,100 --> 00:04:27,966
ever since Doyle
left the ticket.

104
00:04:27,968 --> 00:04:30,502
Doyle, Amy, Lee, Karen, Dan.

105
00:04:30,504 --> 00:04:34,506
I mean, this place is leaking
bodies faster than a Chinese ferry.

106
00:04:34,508 --> 00:04:38,644
You know what? Just as I was getting
some responsibility, right...

107
00:04:38,646 --> 00:04:40,579
- Hey, Jonah.
- Hey.

108
00:04:40,581 --> 00:04:43,248
- Teddy sends a message.
- No, don't you dare touch my balls.

109
00:04:43,250 --> 00:04:46,318
- ( laughing ) - A joke's not a joke
unless everyone can laugh at it.

110
00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:47,719
This is what I have
to look forward to...

111
00:04:47,721 --> 00:04:51,490
A bunch of fucking half-wit
jokers trying to grab my balls.

112
00:04:51,492 --> 00:04:52,924
- ( knocks )
- <i>( TV playing )</i>

113
00:04:52,926 --> 00:04:55,927
- Hello, sir.
- How are the testies, Jonah?

114
00:04:55,929 --> 00:04:57,362
Uh, they're fine, sir.
Thank you.

115
00:04:57,364 --> 00:05:00,732
- We have the notes from the dairy
tariffs meetings. - Oh, yeah.

116
00:05:00,734 --> 00:05:03,602
Put it in that pile over
there with everything else.

117
00:05:03,604 --> 00:05:05,203
I'll set fire to it later.

118
00:05:05,205 --> 00:05:08,206
I met a single mom the other day

119
00:05:08,208 --> 00:05:10,509
holding down several jobs
at the same time.

120
00:05:10,511 --> 00:05:12,744
<i>Head of the National
Security Council.</i>

121
00:05:12,746 --> 00:05:16,248
- ( crowd cheering ) - Head of
the Domestic Policy Council.

122
00:05:16,250 --> 00:05:19,184
Commander-in-Chief
and President...

123
00:05:19,186 --> 00:05:22,354
Just look at this guy.
He is the new me.

124
00:05:22,356 --> 00:05:23,622
He's super me.
125
00:05:23,624 --> 00:05:25,691
You've lived
a very interesting life.

126
00:05:25,693 --> 00:05:26,992
You should write your memoirs.

127
00:05:26,994 --> 00:05:29,428
I was veep, they polled
other candidates,

128
00:05:29,430 --> 00:05:31,229
fucked me in my slack old ass.

129
00:05:31,231 --> 00:05:32,564
- Sound like a best seller?
- I'd read it.

130
00:05:32,566 --> 00:05:35,367
But I'd read anything, though.
I love to read.

131
00:05:35,369 --> 00:05:37,803
You know, it's...

132
00:05:42,476 --> 00:05:44,676
Have you mentioned
that moment to Tom yet?

133
00:05:44,678 --> 00:05:45,911
What?
Are you... stop...

134
00:05:45,913 --> 00:05:48,113
Okay, you're just
gonna do a short circuit.

135
00:05:48,115 --> 00:05:50,615
- Yes.
- Right? And you may wave if you feel

136
00:05:50,617 --> 00:05:53,218
that you can keep control
of the machine here.

137
00:05:53,220 --> 00:05:54,653
The machine?
You mean the bike?

138
00:05:54,655 --> 00:05:57,389
- Right, the bike. Sorry.
- Yeah, I can't fall off, you know.

139
00:05:57,391 --> 00:06:00,158
I don't want to break a tit.
They weren't cheap.

140
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:02,327
- <i>( bicycle bell rings )</i>
- Hi there.

141
00:06:02,329 --> 00:06:04,096
- You all set?
- Yes, I am.

142
00:06:04,098 --> 00:06:06,832
- Do you bike much, Tom?
- Oh, God, no.

143
00:06:06,834 --> 00:06:08,800
- Hardly at all.
- Me neither.

144
00:06:08,802 --> 00:06:10,902
I did do the Tour of Italy 2008,

145
00:06:10,904 --> 00:06:14,339
but my mountain times
were embarrassing.

146
00:06:14,341 --> 00:06:15,407
- Over here, Senator.
- Hey there.

147
00:06:15,409 --> 00:06:19,077
Madam President, would you say
that Tom James is a star?

148
00:06:19,079 --> 00:06:21,480
No, I would not say
Tom James is a star.

149
00:06:21,482 --> 00:06:22,848
I would say he's a superstar.

150
00:06:22,850 --> 00:06:26,418
- ( laughter ) - And I made a good pick.
Don't you think I did?

151
00:06:26,420 --> 00:06:27,986
- Yes, you did.
- Good.

152
00:06:27,988 --> 00:06:29,421
What do you think?
Did I do a good job?

153
00:06:29,423 --> 00:06:32,657
- Is this a good choice that I made?
- I... I...

154
00:06:32,659 --> 00:06:33,725
( laughs )

155
00:06:33,727 --> 00:06:36,161
Selina: Your bike is a
lot bigger than mine.

156
00:06:36,163 --> 00:06:39,097
I should be riding in a
basket in the front like E.T.

157
00:06:39,099 --> 00:06:40,799
You want to go ahead of me?

158
00:06:40,801 --> 00:06:42,267
No, you just do
whatever you want.

159
00:06:42,269 --> 00:06:44,369
Maybe I'm gonna come up.

160
00:06:44,371 --> 00:06:46,605
God, this mirror
doesn't work at all.

161
00:06:46,607 --> 00:06:49,207
The only thing I can see
is my eyeball.
162
00:06:49,209 --> 00:06:51,543
That's a great image.
Vital, dynamic.

163
00:06:51,545 --> 00:06:54,312
Self-congratulations
are in order.

164
00:06:54,314 --> 00:06:55,280
Amy's still pissed at me.

165
00:06:55,282 --> 00:06:57,249
It's 'cause I sent
that press release out

166
00:06:57,251 --> 00:06:59,684
saying she resigned
'cause she's unstable.

167
00:06:59,686 --> 00:07:01,086
She is unstable.

168
00:07:01,088 --> 00:07:03,422
It was a big mistake
to say it, though.

169
00:07:03,424 --> 00:07:04,723
( phone chimes )

170
00:07:04,725 --> 00:07:06,858
Great. Another hate
text from Amy.

171
00:07:06,860 --> 00:07:08,627
"You looked sweaty
on TV yesterday.

172
00:07:08,629 --> 00:07:10,896
Are you going
through the change?"

173
00:07:10,898 --> 00:07:13,398
I wish I understood vendettas.

174
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:15,634
They're so time-consuming.
175
00:07:15,636 --> 00:07:18,603
Dan: <i>Welcome to the
money-making machine.</i>

176
00:07:18,605 --> 00:07:20,172
Want to see the room
where we make all the money?

177
00:07:20,174 --> 00:07:22,507
Or all the other rooms
where we also make money.

178
00:07:22,509 --> 00:07:24,376
See Mike's statement implying
that I was unstable?

179
00:07:24,378 --> 00:07:27,646
- Yeah, look... - They're
doing a pancake breakfast?

180
00:07:27,648 --> 00:07:29,548
Hello, I suggested
that a week ago

181
00:07:29,550 --> 00:07:31,583
and I was shot down like a
hang glider over the Pentagon.

182
00:07:31,585 --> 00:07:34,753
Amy, I'm offering you an
incredible opportunity here, okay?

183
00:07:34,755 --> 00:07:38,056
So let's cut out the whole "keep
her away from scissors" thing.

184
00:07:38,058 --> 00:07:40,258
- Okay.
- Yeah? Ah, Sidney Purcell.

185
00:07:40,260 --> 00:07:42,627
I offer for your delectation
one Miss Amy Brookheimer.

186
00:07:42,629 --> 00:07:46,465
Well, look at me. I have more White
House staff than the White House.

187
00:07:46,467 --> 00:07:47,732
And a whiter building.

188
00:07:47,734 --> 00:07:49,501
Well, I hope that
it's a different vibe

189
00:07:49,503 --> 00:07:51,169
because I am putting all
of that stuff behind me.

190
00:07:51,171 --> 00:07:55,073
- Great. We need someone... - Selina Meyer
is yesterday's news as far as I'm concerned.

191
00:07:55,075 --> 00:07:57,776
Good, because I have a big
GMJ client I need tied up

192
00:07:57,778 --> 00:07:59,978
and I think your West Wing access
should bring him right in.

193
00:07:59,980 --> 00:08:01,980
Yeah, yeah, yeah. We can trap
and truss him, right, Ames?

194
00:08:01,982 --> 00:08:06,084
Yeah, if people want access to
that backstabbing madhouse,

195
00:08:06,086 --> 00:08:08,286
then I think we're the
ones to get it for him.

196
00:08:08,288 --> 00:08:09,387
Maybe you can refer to it
as the White House

197
00:08:09,389 --> 00:08:13,024
since some of our clients actually
still like and respect that place.

198
00:08:13,026 --> 00:08:14,292
- Okay?
- Yeah, all good.

199
00:08:14,294 --> 00:08:16,628
What's he talking about?
I said White House.

200
00:08:16,630 --> 00:08:18,029
Let's get you a decaf.

201
00:08:18,031 --> 00:08:18,997
This is ridiculous.

202
00:08:18,999 --> 00:08:20,365
My talents are being
wasted here.

203
00:08:20,367 --> 00:08:23,168
- I'm like Picasso and I'm
stuck painting fences. - Yeah.

204
00:08:23,170 --> 00:08:25,604
Senator Wilkie has been
begging to see me.

205
00:08:25,606 --> 00:08:26,738
And lots of other people
want meetings, too.

206
00:08:26,740 --> 00:08:29,975
VP Doyle's a lame duck. And you
know what you do with lame animals?

207
00:08:29,977 --> 00:08:31,309
- You care for them.
- You shoot them dead.

208
00:08:31,311 --> 00:08:34,513
Oh, no, yeah, I got you. Kinder
in the long run, actually.

209
00:08:34,515 --> 00:08:37,249
( sirens wailing )

210
00:08:38,886 --> 00:08:41,553
Uh, Tom, can I ask
you a question?
211
00:08:41,555 --> 00:08:42,587
Sure.

212
00:08:42,589 --> 00:08:44,856
It's about a little
moment in time.

213
00:08:44,858 --> 00:08:47,125
Might need to narrow
that down a little.

214
00:08:47,127 --> 00:08:49,361
( laughs )
I know.

215
00:08:49,363 --> 00:08:52,664
Back in DC, you and me.

216
00:08:52,666 --> 00:08:56,167
I think it was
about 12 years ago.

217
00:08:56,169 --> 00:08:56,935
Sure, I... yeah.

218
00:08:56,937 --> 00:08:59,838
We used to hang out a lot
during my first term.

219
00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:05,310
It was that late night
after the Sharpley debate.

220
00:09:05,312 --> 00:09:07,445
Oh.

221
00:09:07,447 --> 00:09:08,880
- Yeah.
- Yeah.

222
00:09:08,882 --> 00:09:11,917
- Ah. Yeah, right.
- Right.

223
00:09:11,919 --> 00:09:13,852
( laughs )
224
00:09:13,854 --> 00:09:15,520
Yeah. Yeah.
What...

225
00:09:15,522 --> 00:09:17,622
- We shared that cab.
- <i>We shared a cab.</i>

226
00:09:17,624 --> 00:09:21,293
- Right.
- The night of the green shoes.

227
00:09:21,295 --> 00:09:23,929
Oh, look at you,

228
00:09:23,931 --> 00:09:26,865
remembering the shoes.

229
00:09:26,867 --> 00:09:29,434
They gave you blisters.

230
00:09:29,436 --> 00:09:32,971
Or was it...
No, it was corns.

231
00:09:32,973 --> 00:09:34,306
Or...

232
00:09:34,308 --> 00:09:35,807
No, it wasn't corns.

233
00:09:35,809 --> 00:09:38,743
Not co...
I don't get corns.

234
00:09:40,781 --> 00:09:41,346
( sighs )

235
00:09:41,348 --> 00:09:44,816
Anyway, we got out
of the cab at my house

236
00:09:44,818 --> 00:09:46,751
and, um...
237
00:09:47,721 --> 00:09:51,823
the cold got to us
and then you decided...

238
00:09:51,825 --> 00:09:54,225
you wanted to walk home.

239
00:09:54,895 --> 00:09:57,929
Yeah, I love to walk at night.

240
00:09:57,931 --> 00:10:00,765
It's the only time I can
think straight, you know,

241
00:10:00,767 --> 00:10:04,102
without the phones
and screens pestering me.

242
00:10:09,810 --> 00:10:11,476
You okay, ma'am?
You look a little flushed.

243
00:10:11,478 --> 00:10:13,645
- I mentioned the moment in the car.
- ( gasps )

244
00:10:13,647 --> 00:10:15,380
- And?
- He had no idea what I was talking about.

245
00:10:15,382 --> 00:10:18,116
- No, you're kidding me. - Yeah, I
don't want to talk about this, okay?

246
00:10:18,118 --> 00:10:21,419
- I'm so humiliated.
- Okay, I understand. I understand.

247
00:10:21,421 --> 00:10:22,621
- No, you don't.
- Yes, I do.

248
00:10:22,623 --> 00:10:24,422
No, you don't, Gary.
You're a guy, okay?

249
00:10:24,424 --> 00:10:26,591
You can't have any idea
what I'm talking about.

250
00:10:26,593 --> 00:10:28,093
That's right, I am a guy.
And Tom's a guy.

251
00:10:28,095 --> 00:10:29,995
You want me to talk to him
like guy on guy?

252
00:10:29,997 --> 00:10:30,528
No!

253
00:10:30,530 --> 00:10:33,598
You have to stop doing things
for me all the time, all right?

254
00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:34,566
Which reminds me, by the way,

255
00:10:34,568 --> 00:10:36,801
I'm going commando
at tomorrow's pancake brunch.

256
00:10:36,803 --> 00:10:39,204
- What? No underwear?
- What?

257
00:10:39,206 --> 00:10:42,741
No. Jesus Christ. Yeah,
that'll win me the election.

258
00:10:42,743 --> 00:10:44,175
A nice shot of my beav.

259
00:10:44,177 --> 00:10:46,444
No, I want no prompting, okay?

260
00:10:46,446 --> 00:10:47,412
I'm going solo.
No you, even.

261
00:10:47,414 --> 00:10:51,650
- <i>( music playing )</i> - Dan: <i>That's
right, Jamie. Dan Egan is back.</i>
262
00:10:51,652 --> 00:10:52,617
Like denim and measles.

263
00:10:52,619 --> 00:10:54,986
- ( laughs ) - And, Lauren,
you look beautiful.

264
00:10:54,988 --> 00:10:59,557
How do you keep that white
wine so cold looking that hot?

265
00:11:00,827 --> 00:11:01,860
Uh...

266
00:11:01,862 --> 00:11:03,895
- ( clanking )
- Everybody.

267
00:11:03,897 --> 00:11:05,797
<i>So I just wanted
to say thank you</i>

268
00:11:05,799 --> 00:11:08,366
for welcoming me
back from exile.

269
00:11:08,368 --> 00:11:09,734
I can finally officially say

270
00:11:09,736 --> 00:11:11,870
that Dan Egan
has the all-clear.

271
00:11:11,872 --> 00:11:13,772
- ( cheering )
- Yeah. ( laughs )

272
00:11:13,774 --> 00:11:17,976
- Have fun. Enjoy the free bar.
- Yay. Free bar.

273
00:11:17,978 --> 00:11:21,913
Well, this is a soulless
parade of vanity and ambition.

274
00:11:21,915 --> 00:11:23,381
Isn't it great?
Sliders are good, too.

275
00:11:23,383 --> 00:11:26,317
- Oh, I didn't see them.
- Oh, so listen, I invited Nicola Mortlock.

276
00:11:26,319 --> 00:11:28,820
- Didn't you move in with her once?
- For like a month.

277
00:11:28,822 --> 00:11:30,722
She didn't like my untidiness
or my other girlfriends.

278
00:11:30,724 --> 00:11:35,493
Amy, I thought you might be in a
straightjacket drooling on meds.

279
00:11:35,495 --> 00:11:36,428
( both laugh )

280
00:11:36,430 --> 00:11:38,163
I guess Mike McLintock
was wrong.

281
00:11:38,165 --> 00:11:39,898
Yeah, is he ever right?
( laughs )

282
00:11:39,900 --> 00:11:42,233
I hope your vagina falls off.

283
00:11:42,235 --> 00:11:44,969
Amy.
Jesus, what the fuck?

284
00:11:44,971 --> 00:11:47,105
- What?
- All right, how do I put this sensitively?

285
00:11:47,107 --> 00:11:49,474
- Stop acting fucking nuts.
- Yeah, I'm trying.

286
00:11:49,476 --> 00:11:52,343
All right, jeez. Look, the best way
to get revenge on these people

287
00:11:52,345 --> 00:11:55,914
is to use them to make a
shitload of money, all right?

288
00:11:55,916 --> 00:11:58,283
- Mark Twain said that.
- No, I hate DC

289
00:11:58,285 --> 00:12:01,086
and it chews you up
and it shits you out

290
00:12:01,088 --> 00:12:02,487
and then you are left
with nothing

291
00:12:02,489 --> 00:12:04,222
but the night sweats
and flashbacks.

292
00:12:04,224 --> 00:12:06,124
Oh, come on, you love DC.

293
00:12:06,126 --> 00:12:08,259
Find a way to just
sort of release it.

294
00:12:08,261 --> 00:12:09,961
- ( screaming )
- Jesus Christ!

295
00:12:09,963 --> 00:12:12,864
- Amy, stop it!
- ( screaming )

296
00:12:12,866 --> 00:12:15,266
- Stop screaming.
- That feels really good.

297
00:12:15,268 --> 00:12:17,936
- I don't care.
- ( screaming )

298
00:12:17,938 --> 00:12:19,104
Hey!

299
00:12:19,106 --> 00:12:20,605
- This man bothering you?
- She's fine.

300
00:12:20,607 --> 00:12:22,974
- I swear, I...
- You need to stop speaking.

301
00:12:22,976 --> 00:12:24,709
- I asked the lady.
- Yep, yep, yep.

302
00:12:24,711 --> 00:12:25,577
It's all good, Officer.

303
00:12:25,579 --> 00:12:28,346
- Maybe you don't yell out like that.
- Mm-hmm. Yes.

304
00:12:28,348 --> 00:12:30,381
- Makes people nervous.
- Yes, sir.

305
00:12:30,383 --> 00:12:31,950
Thank you.
Thank you.

306
00:12:31,952 --> 00:12:35,653
For this and for
your broader service.

307
00:12:35,956 --> 00:12:39,758
- I really feel better.
- All right, you need to calm down.

308
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:42,193
Go to a spa,
take a Pilates class.

309
00:12:42,195 --> 00:12:43,795
Go to a fucking church,
find someone there

310
00:12:43,797 --> 00:12:47,398
that has some Valium
and take four of them.

311
00:12:48,068 --> 00:12:49,868
- Jonah: Hello.
- Oh, pleased to meet you.

312
00:12:49,870 --> 00:12:52,137
- Ruth Forrester.
- Pleasure. Jonah Ryan.

313
00:12:52,139 --> 00:12:54,372
This is my personal
assistant Richard Splett.

314
00:12:54,374 --> 00:12:55,707
- Splett?
- Splett.

315
00:12:55,709 --> 00:12:58,309
- Uh, Splett.
- Please have a seat.

316
00:12:58,311 --> 00:13:00,445
Oh, thank you.

317
00:13:00,447 --> 00:13:02,547
Uh, will the senator
be joining us?

318
00:13:02,549 --> 00:13:04,249
Mr. Ryan, we asked
you here today

319
00:13:04,251 --> 00:13:07,485
with regard
to a Mr. Theodore Sykes.

320
00:13:08,655 --> 00:13:09,354
Uh, Teddy.

321
00:13:09,356 --> 00:13:12,090
We're bringing a class
action against him

322
00:13:12,092 --> 00:13:13,691
and we'd like you to testify.
323
00:13:13,693 --> 00:13:15,293
We've all been the victims

324
00:13:15,295 --> 00:13:17,829
of Teddy's inappropriate
sexual behavior.

325
00:13:17,831 --> 00:13:20,698
Am I the only man that he...

326
00:13:20,700 --> 00:13:22,033
- As far as we know.
- Okay, all right.

327
00:13:22,035 --> 00:13:25,236
Well, obviously there has been
some sort of mistake here

328
00:13:25,238 --> 00:13:27,205
because what happened
between Teddy and I

329
00:13:27,207 --> 00:13:29,707
was not consensual, obviously.

330
00:13:29,709 --> 00:13:31,543
There was the ball...
The cupping...

331
00:13:31,545 --> 00:13:34,312
The grabbing or the...
The clutching.

332
00:13:34,314 --> 00:13:36,414
There is no shame here, Jonah.
Let it out.

333
00:13:36,416 --> 00:13:37,515
Oh, I understand
there's no shame

334
00:13:37,517 --> 00:13:41,052
because it was locker room
tomfoolery and nothing more.

335
00:13:41,054 --> 00:13:42,554
You're saying
you weren't assaulted?

336
00:13:42,556 --> 00:13:44,022
Sir, you don't have
to answer that.

337
00:13:44,024 --> 00:13:45,557
- Oh, is this man your attorney?
- No.

338
00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:48,026
- Not technically.
- Let's go, right now.

339
00:13:48,028 --> 00:13:49,227
Teddy can't hurt you now.

340
00:13:49,229 --> 00:13:52,697
I'm not worried about Teddy.
I'm worried about you.

341
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:57,368
Jesus fucking Christ.
You all look like me.

342
00:13:57,771 --> 00:13:59,537
This is a nightmare.

343
00:13:59,539 --> 00:14:01,606
It's a fucking nightmare.

344
00:14:06,112 --> 00:14:07,445
And just so we're clear,

345
00:14:07,447 --> 00:14:10,148
at no point was this
a job interview?

346
00:14:10,150 --> 00:14:13,785
- No.
- Okay. Okay.

347
00:14:14,454 --> 00:14:15,620
Well, that was unexpected.

348
00:14:15,622 --> 00:14:19,724
Yeah, I feel like I got felt up
again, but this time by the law.

349
00:14:19,726 --> 00:14:21,059
Just tell me what I'm doing.

350
00:14:21,061 --> 00:14:23,428
Well, you're dealing with
the emotional fallout of...

351
00:14:23,430 --> 00:14:24,395
- Today, Richard.
- Oh, yeah.

352
00:14:24,397 --> 00:14:27,065
Well, you have a 4:30 meeting
with Congressman Skellern.

353
00:14:27,067 --> 00:14:29,234
Okay, that's in Georgetown, right?
So we should Uber?

354
00:14:29,236 --> 00:14:32,971
Oh, yeah, no. Uber, that
makes the most sense, sir.

355
00:14:33,974 --> 00:14:38,109
Richard, I don't look like
a middle-aged woman, do I?

356
00:14:39,379 --> 00:14:40,478
No, sir.

357
00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:42,413
Well, you do have
that one purple shirt

358
00:14:42,415 --> 00:14:45,216
that looks a bit blousy, but...

359
00:14:45,719 --> 00:14:48,453
- Oh, we got Donald coming
in three minutes. - Great.

360
00:14:48,455 --> 00:14:50,989
( sirens wailing )
361
00:14:53,260 --> 00:14:55,593
Selina: <i>Okay, that's
Congressman Hausman.</i>

362
00:14:55,595 --> 00:14:57,729
<i>I've got him.
So who's next?</i>

363
00:14:57,731 --> 00:14:58,863
This is Congressman Cheever.

364
00:14:58,865 --> 00:15:00,732
- Do you remember anything about him?
- Yeah.

365
00:15:00,734 --> 00:15:02,667
He's got that big left ear

366
00:15:02,669 --> 00:15:04,836
and he has a small majority

367
00:15:04,838 --> 00:15:06,504
and he needs funding
for infrastructure?

368
00:15:06,506 --> 00:15:11,042
Okay, really good. It's just it's his
right ear that's freakishly large.

369
00:15:11,044 --> 00:15:14,078
- No, his right, my left.
- Aha, got it. Okay.

370
00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:16,881
Ma'am, this is
the pancake brunch setup.

371
00:15:16,883 --> 00:15:19,751
- General holding area here.
- Yeah.

372
00:15:19,753 --> 00:15:22,620
Juices and coffees.
Hot plates and griddles.

373
00:15:22,622 --> 00:15:24,856
Okay, the minute you
see bubbles, you flip.

374
00:15:24,858 --> 00:15:27,625
No, you flip when you see holes.

375
00:15:27,627 --> 00:15:28,960
Bubbles is too soon.

376
00:15:28,962 --> 00:15:30,161
Holes, not bubbles.

377
00:15:30,163 --> 00:15:31,296
Okay, I flip at bubbles, but...

378
00:15:31,298 --> 00:15:34,532
Fun fact... there are
three kinds of syrup.

379
00:15:34,534 --> 00:15:36,634
Boysenberry, maple,
and buttermilk.

380
00:15:36,636 --> 00:15:39,437
Buttermilk is not a syrup.

381
00:15:39,439 --> 00:15:40,772
Okay, ma'am,
what if you said this?

382
00:15:40,774 --> 00:15:43,675
- Selina:<i> Yeah?</i>
- Who's achin' for some bacon?

383
00:15:43,677 --> 00:15:46,477
No. Okay, I can't
prep anymore, all right?

384
00:15:46,479 --> 00:15:48,913
- Really?
- I might vomit on Mike.

385
00:15:48,915 --> 00:15:52,116
This bus is giving me
motion sickness.
386
00:15:52,118 --> 00:15:53,551
Okay, let me get you
a scopolamine patch.

387
00:15:53,553 --> 00:15:57,689
Fun fact... scopolamine was
first used as a truth serum

388
00:15:57,691 --> 00:16:01,092
by the Czechoslovakian
state police.

389
00:16:01,628 --> 00:16:03,928
How is that fun?

390
00:16:06,066 --> 00:16:06,998
- Mel?
- Tom.

391
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:08,199
Did you lose a lot of weight

392
00:16:08,201 --> 00:16:09,367
or did you get
six inches taller?

393
00:16:09,369 --> 00:16:12,503
I think you look great.
Great height and weight.

394
00:16:12,505 --> 00:16:15,139
- Madam President.
- Yes. Oh!

395
00:16:15,141 --> 00:16:18,109
I know you.
Yes, I know you, sir.

396
00:16:18,111 --> 00:16:21,079
- Um...
- Congressman Hausman.

397
00:16:21,081 --> 00:16:22,747
And we met before.

398
00:16:22,749 --> 00:16:24,315
No, ma'am, I have
never had the honor.

399
00:16:24,317 --> 00:16:27,118
- Okay.
- This is my wife Beatrice.

400
00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:29,587
- Hello. How good to meet you.
- Hello.

401
00:16:29,589 --> 00:16:31,823
- And I love your brooch.
- Thank you.

402
00:16:31,825 --> 00:16:35,093
It's a honeybee.
Bee for Beatrice.

403
00:16:35,095 --> 00:16:37,795
Fun fact about the honeybee.

404
00:16:37,797 --> 00:16:40,064
Do you know how much honey

405
00:16:40,066 --> 00:16:42,800
a honeybee produces
in its lifetime?

406
00:16:42,802 --> 00:16:46,070
- I do not.
- Well...

407
00:16:46,406 --> 00:16:49,374
it's either surprisingly little

408
00:16:49,376 --> 00:16:52,477
or surprisingly a lot.

409
00:16:52,479 --> 00:16:54,912
Chatting, nodding.
This is classic mingling.

410
00:16:54,914 --> 00:16:57,715
Yeah, but it's funeral mingling.

411
00:16:57,717 --> 00:16:58,683
Nobody's laughing.

412
00:16:58,685 --> 00:17:01,819
She must not be using
all the jokes I gave her.

413
00:17:04,057 --> 00:17:05,523
<i>( music playing )</i>

414
00:17:05,525 --> 00:17:08,092
This is it?
You just lie here?

415
00:17:08,094 --> 00:17:11,262
Yeah. Unwind.

416
00:17:12,232 --> 00:17:14,265
Defocus.

417
00:17:15,035 --> 00:17:17,668
Did I tell you I slept in?

418
00:17:17,670 --> 00:17:19,470
- Wow.
- Mm-hmm.

419
00:17:19,472 --> 00:17:22,473
Actually, I got up early,
but then I just stayed in bed

420
00:17:22,475 --> 00:17:24,242
looking at Politico.

421
00:17:24,244 --> 00:17:26,244
That site has turned to shit.

422
00:17:26,246 --> 00:17:27,979
( chuckles )
But anyway...

423
00:17:27,981 --> 00:17:29,914
Oh, is that Paula Thorpe?

424
00:17:29,916 --> 00:17:32,083
- Did you lift your cucumber?
- <i>Yeah.</i>

425
00:17:32,085 --> 00:17:34,919
- Who's Paula Thorpe?
- The chief of staff for Jensen.

426
00:17:34,921 --> 00:17:37,755
Fascinating.
You are here to relax.

427
00:17:37,757 --> 00:17:40,758
Please stop talking about work.

428
00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:42,860
Yeah, I know.

429
00:17:42,862 --> 00:17:45,363
It's so great.

430
00:17:46,599 --> 00:17:47,698
Wow, this music
is so irritating.

431
00:17:47,700 --> 00:17:51,669
Jesus, only you could be irritated
by gamma waves and a whale.

432
00:17:51,671 --> 00:17:56,274
This is just a Swiss suicide
clinic with a hint of jojoba.

433
00:17:56,276 --> 00:17:57,442
( phone chimes )

434
00:17:57,444 --> 00:18:00,344
Dan, mm-hmm, I did the whole
spa thing and it worked.

435
00:18:00,346 --> 00:18:02,947
- I have been here, like...
- Seven minutes.

436
00:18:02,949 --> 00:18:04,816
Seven minutes.
Yeah, it's plenty.

437
00:18:04,818 --> 00:18:06,384
Okay, so I'm going
to see you at the office.

438
00:18:06,386 --> 00:18:07,685
Man: <i>You won't
remember, Senator,</i>

439
00:18:07,687 --> 00:18:10,455
but my father drove you when
you first ran for office.

440
00:18:10,457 --> 00:18:12,623
- You're George Meredith's boy?
- Yeah.

441
00:18:12,625 --> 00:18:14,926
How's he doing? Is he still
brewing his own beer?

442
00:18:14,928 --> 00:18:18,429
- Yes, sir. Still doesn't taste any better.
- ( laughs )

443
00:18:18,431 --> 00:18:21,332
Can I get a short stack
made without cow's milk?

444
00:18:21,334 --> 00:18:24,635
Are you serious?
You don't want milk or...?

445
00:18:24,637 --> 00:18:25,503
No, it makes me gassy.

446
00:18:25,505 --> 00:18:29,107
Which, when you have a bag
instead of a bowel, is not good.

447
00:18:29,109 --> 00:18:32,110
Bernie. How's the
gut, my friend?

448
00:18:32,112 --> 00:18:34,879
Tolerable.
Thanks for remembering.

449
00:18:34,881 --> 00:18:37,915
I made some batter
with soy milk just for you.

450
00:18:37,917 --> 00:18:40,485
Let me whip you up
some pancakes.

451
00:18:40,487 --> 00:18:41,819
Wow.

452
00:18:41,821 --> 00:18:42,920
Tom:
<i>There we go.</i>

453
00:18:42,922 --> 00:18:46,624
Who's, uh... who's achin'
for some bacon?

454
00:18:46,626 --> 00:18:49,894
Got a very strong relationship
with Senator Lambert.

455
00:18:49,896 --> 00:18:51,996
Sure, and nobody wants
to ruin a good relationship.

456
00:18:51,998 --> 00:18:53,998
No, and Lambert kind of
knows Roger Furlong,

457
00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:55,800
who takes regular meetings
with VP Doyle,

458
00:18:55,802 --> 00:18:57,335
who theoretically
has access to POTUS.

459
00:18:57,337 --> 00:19:01,305
- That's the chain. - Look, you want
a chain? Here's the chain, okay?

460
00:19:01,307 --> 00:19:03,908
- Me... - Me, the President
of the United States.

461
00:19:03,910 --> 00:19:05,810
I have the trust of POTUS

462
00:19:05,812 --> 00:19:08,246
and all of the senior
members of her team.

463
00:19:08,248 --> 00:19:11,149
- Just...
- ( phone ringing )

464
00:19:12,152 --> 00:19:13,317
Hey, Amy.

465
00:19:13,319 --> 00:19:15,853
Yeah, good to hear from you.
Yeah, Sue just won't do.

466
00:19:15,855 --> 00:19:18,990
- ( whispers ) Ben Cafferty.
- Sometimes I think she's actually dead.

467
00:19:18,992 --> 00:19:20,491
So did you hear
about the hurricane?

468
00:19:20,493 --> 00:19:24,428
Oh, Ben, I'm sorry, I think
I dialed by mistake.

469
00:19:24,430 --> 00:19:25,696
Hello?

470
00:19:25,698 --> 00:19:27,899
So, Paul, do we have
your business?

471
00:19:27,901 --> 00:19:30,735
Be a lot cheaper for me
to steal your phone, but...

472
00:19:30,737 --> 00:19:32,703
- ( all laugh )
- yeah, you do.

473
00:19:32,705 --> 00:19:34,038
- Sydney: Excellent.
- You do, absolutely.

474
00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:35,273
- Okay, good.
- Hey, welcome aboard.

475
00:19:35,275 --> 00:19:37,441
- You're not going to regret this.
- Thanks so much.

476
00:19:37,443 --> 00:19:40,478
- All right.
- Very excited.

477
00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:41,646
Bye.

478
00:19:41,648 --> 00:19:44,415
Oh, boy, that was
fucking amazing.

479
00:19:44,417 --> 00:19:46,551
- Thank you very much.
- Great work, Amy.

480
00:19:46,553 --> 00:19:48,052
You have my utmost admiration.

481
00:19:48,054 --> 00:19:50,154
- Thank you.
- Yeah, she's also got your client list.

482
00:19:50,156 --> 00:19:52,190
- Wait, what do you mean?
- Don't worry about it.

483
00:19:52,192 --> 00:19:54,225
She's not taking all your
clients, just a couple.

484
00:19:54,227 --> 00:19:58,162
You know, Fycorps, Killick
& Company, Hemmings.

485
00:19:58,164 --> 00:19:59,697
No, no, no.
That's my holy trinity.
486
00:19:59,699 --> 00:20:04,035
Those are my biggies. Without
those, all I got is my smallies.

487
00:20:04,037 --> 00:20:05,036
Well, spoils of war, handsome.

488
00:20:05,038 --> 00:20:07,738
You want top clients, be more like Amy.
Or better.

489
00:20:07,740 --> 00:20:10,274
You want to go ahead
and give her my parking space

490
00:20:10,276 --> 00:20:11,409
and my desk while you're at it?

491
00:20:11,411 --> 00:20:14,579
Now, listen, Dan, I don't
want to be unreasonable.

492
00:20:14,581 --> 00:20:17,148
Amy, do you want his
parking space and desk?

493
00:20:17,150 --> 00:20:17,915
Yes, please.

494
00:20:17,917 --> 00:20:19,350
Gary:
<i>Are you okay?</i>

495
00:20:19,352 --> 00:20:21,118
- No.
- What's wrong?

496
00:20:21,120 --> 00:20:22,887
He's this pancake genius

497
00:20:22,889 --> 00:20:26,357
and I got lost in some sort
of a bee anecdote.

498
00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:29,060
You listen to me.
You are Beyoncé.

499
00:20:29,062 --> 00:20:31,796
- He is backup bootie.
- Kent:<i> Ma'am.</i>

500
00:20:31,798 --> 00:20:34,432
- Yeah?
- It's Ben.

501
00:20:34,734 --> 00:20:36,234
- Hey, what's going on?
- <i>The storm's happening.</i>

502
00:20:36,236 --> 00:20:40,304
Ma'am, you've got to get back to
DC faster than a speeding drunk.

503
00:20:40,306 --> 00:20:42,840
Is North Carolina about
to be blown off the map?

504
00:20:42,842 --> 00:20:44,709
Yeah, six hours
till flying cow time.

505
00:20:44,711 --> 00:20:48,846
<i>This is a potential tragedy
that could be great for you.</i>

506
00:20:48,848 --> 00:20:50,414
Okay.

507
00:20:50,416 --> 00:20:51,449
And now the weather.

508
00:20:51,451 --> 00:20:53,818
Thank you.
I feel very...

509
00:20:53,820 --> 00:20:56,420
Okay, we'll drop Tom
back off in DC, right?

510
00:20:56,422 --> 00:20:59,423
This is it. Hurricane's
definitely going to hit.

511
00:20:59,425 --> 00:21:01,959
Everyone's gonna be coming
back from the campaign

512
00:21:01,961 --> 00:21:03,861
and this joint
will be jumping again.

513
00:21:03,863 --> 00:21:06,030
You are really excited
about that, aren't you, Ben?

514
00:21:06,032 --> 00:21:08,432
Hell, yes. I mean, no
offense meant, Sue,

515
00:21:08,434 --> 00:21:13,704
but when it's just you and
me, it's like it's just me.

516
00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:15,573
Mike:
<i>Okay, it's looking bad.</i>

517
00:21:15,575 --> 00:21:16,974
Both the National
Weather Service

518
00:21:16,976 --> 00:21:18,309
and my app are saying this.

519
00:21:18,311 --> 00:21:21,112
Right, so we'll go to DC, we'll
wait for the storm to pass,

520
00:21:21,114 --> 00:21:22,847
and then we'll head
to North Carolina.

521
00:21:22,849 --> 00:21:26,517
Or go there right now
before it hits.

522
00:21:26,519 --> 00:21:28,853
That's crazy.
523
00:21:28,855 --> 00:21:29,954
Soon as the hurricane
has passed,

524
00:21:29,956 --> 00:21:32,456
you're right there with the
people in their hour of need.

525
00:21:32,458 --> 00:21:34,625
( mouths words )
He's crazy.

526
00:21:34,627 --> 00:21:36,627
- I love that.
- Do you?

527
00:21:36,629 --> 00:21:38,829
That's the way
you master a disaster.

528
00:21:38,831 --> 00:21:40,464
Hey, ma'am, I've got
some issues here.

529
00:21:40,466 --> 00:21:43,668
It's a hurricane, and
that's, like, killer wind.

530
00:21:43,670 --> 00:21:48,039
Okay, we're turning this plane around,
we're heading to North Carolina.

531
00:21:50,343 --> 00:21:53,044
Governor: <i>A state of
emergency in my state</i>

532
00:21:53,046 --> 00:21:56,314
would shut down travel,
cost millions.

533
00:21:56,316 --> 00:21:58,516
<i>Can we wait a few hours?</i>

534
00:21:58,518 --> 00:22:00,618
Well, we don't have a few hours.
535
00:22:00,620 --> 00:22:02,987
Is that Senator James?

536
00:22:02,989 --> 00:22:04,488
- Hi.
- Tom:<i> Hi, Cecile.</i>

537
00:22:04,490 --> 00:22:07,325
Either they have the
contrast turned up to max

538
00:22:07,327 --> 00:22:09,126
or you are looking fine.

539
00:22:09,128 --> 00:22:09,927
( laughs )
Oh.

540
00:22:09,929 --> 00:22:12,463
- Should we...?
- Oh, yes, of course.

541
00:22:12,465 --> 00:22:13,998
Governor, I'm sure
you'll understand,

542
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:16,400
we have some issues
of national security

543
00:22:16,402 --> 00:22:18,903
that have to be discussed.

544
00:22:18,905 --> 00:22:20,938
I have had it

545
00:22:20,940 --> 00:22:23,974
with her category five
fucking snoot.

546
00:22:23,976 --> 00:22:27,445
And... she definitely
can't hear us?

547
00:22:27,447 --> 00:22:31,916
- No.
- Maybe she can lip-read.

548
00:22:33,786 --> 00:22:35,920
Okay, um...

549
00:22:35,922 --> 00:22:38,556
let's just swivel the chairs.

550
00:22:41,527 --> 00:22:42,393
Jesus Christ.

551
00:22:42,395 --> 00:22:45,629
- She know that we can hear that?
- My guess would be no.

552
00:22:45,631 --> 00:22:48,132
- I got a text from Ben.
- What did he say?

553
00:22:48,134 --> 00:22:52,336
- What did he say?
- He says he can't hear anything.

554
00:22:52,338 --> 00:22:54,271
Just text him back.

555
00:22:54,273 --> 00:22:56,574
See, I think it would be unfair

556
00:22:56,576 --> 00:22:59,110
on Senator O'Brien
and his running mate

557
00:22:59,112 --> 00:23:00,611
if there were a travel lockdown

558
00:23:00,613 --> 00:23:02,646
because they would
be stranded in Florida.

559
00:23:02,648 --> 00:23:06,183
They would not be able to visit
the disaster site like we could.

560
00:23:06,185 --> 00:23:10,755
Just throwing that
into the barbecue sauce.

561
00:23:10,757 --> 00:23:13,224
Right.

562
00:23:14,060 --> 00:23:17,194
It doesn't work.
The chair...

563
00:23:19,065 --> 00:23:21,432
Governor, it pains me
to say this.

564
00:23:21,434 --> 00:23:24,135
I think we're gonna
have to ground flights

565
00:23:24,137 --> 00:23:26,771
despite your opinion
on this matter.

566
00:23:26,773 --> 00:23:30,408
Cecile, if a state
of emergency were requested,

567
00:23:30,410 --> 00:23:34,979
that could be sweetened by a
light dusting of federal funds.

568
00:23:34,981 --> 00:23:39,917
Okay, I've decided to request
a state of emergency.

569
00:23:39,919 --> 00:23:42,186
Thank you, Governor.

570
00:23:43,723 --> 00:23:45,156
How about that?

571
00:23:45,158 --> 00:23:48,225
- Look at that. Put it here.
- Seemed to work.

572
00:23:48,227 --> 00:23:49,593
- You know what you are?
- What?
573
00:23:49,595 --> 00:23:52,163
A great choice that I made.

574
00:23:52,165 --> 00:23:57,101
Selina: <i>Okay, let's go
storm-chasing, you shitkickers.</i>

575
00:23:57,103 --> 00:23:59,236
<i>( Selina and Tom laugh )</i>

576
00:23:59,539 --> 00:24:03,073
Selina: <i>This isn't a hurricane.
What the hell is this?</i>

577
00:24:03,075 --> 00:24:05,676
Mike: <i>My app says
moderate breeze.</i>

578
00:24:05,678 --> 00:24:07,411
These trees are still standing.

579
00:24:07,413 --> 00:24:08,746
I don't want to look
at standing trees.

580
00:24:08,748 --> 00:24:11,949
- I mean, where is my storm?
- It veered south.

581
00:24:11,951 --> 00:24:13,918
- How?
- Barometric pressure.

582
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:15,252
How about that app
of yours, Mike?

583
00:24:15,254 --> 00:24:17,988
You better get your money
back on that one.

584
00:24:17,990 --> 00:24:19,190
It was actually free.

585
00:24:19,192 --> 00:24:22,226
I updated my software and it
just appeared on my screen.

586
00:24:22,228 --> 00:24:25,696
And I was like, "What is this
thing?" And I just picked it up.

587
00:24:25,698 --> 00:24:27,731
Where's the storm heading now?

588
00:24:27,733 --> 00:24:29,200
- Florida.
- Florida.

589
00:24:29,202 --> 00:24:31,035
So O'Brien and Montez

590
00:24:31,037 --> 00:24:33,804
are gonna get the storm photos?
Is that what you're saying?

591
00:24:33,806 --> 00:24:36,740
This was definitely a good
idea when I pitched it.

592
00:24:36,742 --> 00:24:38,375
Well, I grounded flights

593
00:24:38,377 --> 00:24:41,412
and I diverted federal funds
to the wrong state.

594
00:24:41,414 --> 00:24:45,149
I don't remember you pitching
that as a possibility, Tom.

595
00:24:45,151 --> 00:24:46,750
Sometimes you have to gamble.

596
00:24:46,752 --> 00:24:49,119
Unfortunately,
our horse did not win.

597
00:24:49,121 --> 00:24:50,221
No, it certainly didn't.

598
00:24:50,223 --> 00:24:51,889
It fell at the first fence
and it got shot.

599
00:24:51,891 --> 00:24:55,493
And now some French fucker's
got it in a baguette.

600
00:24:55,495 --> 00:24:57,928
Don't you gamble
with this campaign

601
00:24:57,930 --> 00:24:59,063
and this presidency, okay, Tom?

602
00:24:59,065 --> 00:25:04,001
- Too much too soon. I apologize.
- Right. Mm-hmm.

603
00:25:04,737 --> 00:25:06,036
- Mr. Ryan.
- Yeah?

604
00:25:06,038 --> 00:25:08,305
Louise Benjamin
from Cabinet Affairs

605
00:25:08,307 --> 00:25:09,740
is here for your meeting.

606
00:25:09,742 --> 00:25:12,376
What?
Oh, yeah.

607
00:25:12,378 --> 00:25:14,712
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- Okay.

608
00:25:16,782 --> 00:25:18,415
- Hello.
- Hi. Is this a joke?

609
00:25:18,417 --> 00:25:21,452
- I'm sorry?
- Honestly, why are you here?

610
00:25:21,454 --> 00:25:23,687
I'm collating
agency responses...

611
00:25:23,689 --> 00:25:25,723
- How tall are you?
- What?

612
00:25:25,725 --> 00:25:26,624
I am sorry, ma'am.

613
00:25:26,626 --> 00:25:29,026
A number of tall women
were molested

614
00:25:29,028 --> 00:25:31,028
and Mr. Ryan
was one of them.

615
00:25:31,030 --> 00:25:32,696
Okay, and this
is a campaigning visit?

616
00:25:32,698 --> 00:25:34,765
Yes, you're here as a
candidate, not president.

617
00:25:34,767 --> 00:25:36,433
Selina: <i>Okay, and
what do they do here?</i>

618
00:25:36,435 --> 00:25:38,335
Embossed and dentil moulding.

619
00:25:38,337 --> 00:25:40,004
- Uh-huh. Huh?
- No idea.

620
00:25:40,006 --> 00:25:42,673
Ma'am, we've also set up
a tour of an egg plant.

621
00:25:42,675 --> 00:25:45,676
I mean a plant that packs
eggs, not the big vegetable.

622
00:25:45,678 --> 00:25:47,745
- Oh, I see.
- Thanks for clarifying.
623
00:25:47,747 --> 00:25:49,246
- You're welcome.
- Hello.

624
00:25:49,248 --> 00:25:50,414
- Madam President.
- Yes.

625
00:25:50,416 --> 00:25:52,182
- Welcome.
- Oh, thank you.

626
00:25:52,184 --> 00:25:54,518
We were hoping to give you
a tour of the plant,

627
00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:58,956
but we sustained some damage in
the storm and it's not safe.

628
00:25:58,958 --> 00:26:00,724
Oh! Oh, well...

629
00:26:00,726 --> 00:26:04,328
we're gonna want to see
that, Kent, right away.

630
00:26:04,330 --> 00:26:06,297
Apologies, et cetera.
Back in the car.

631
00:26:06,299 --> 00:26:09,166
This is presidential.
Can't look like campaigning.

632
00:26:12,004 --> 00:26:13,070
Nick.

633
00:26:13,072 --> 00:26:17,007
Nope, I'm gonna be hiding
in the back of a car.

634
00:26:17,009 --> 00:26:20,044
I know.
Biography just writes itself.
635
00:26:20,046 --> 00:26:21,111
Let's get a look.

636
00:26:21,113 --> 00:26:23,380
Well, this roof
sustained some damage.

637
00:26:23,382 --> 00:26:25,916
Selina:
<i>Oh. Uh-huh.</i>

638
00:26:25,918 --> 00:26:28,319
( quietly )
This isn't damage.

639
00:26:28,321 --> 00:26:30,955
- Just some shitty building.
- Mm-hmm.

640
00:26:30,957 --> 00:26:31,689
Oh, God.

641
00:26:31,691 --> 00:26:35,993
O'Brien just pulled a teddy bear
out of the ruins of a house.

642
00:26:36,662 --> 00:26:39,163
Okay, complete 180.

643
00:26:39,165 --> 00:26:42,566
This is a campaign visit.
Go get Tom now.

644
00:26:42,969 --> 00:26:45,235
- Ahem!
- Selina:<i> Want to give me some sunscreen?</i>

645
00:26:45,237 --> 00:26:47,137
- Yeah.
- It's pretty bright out.

646
00:26:47,139 --> 00:26:48,639
Gary:
<i>It is so bright out.</i>

647
00:26:48,641 --> 00:26:50,274
- Right?
- Yes, ma'am.

648
00:26:50,276 --> 00:26:52,409
( sighs )

649
00:26:52,411 --> 00:26:54,445
<i>It's a campaign visit again.</i>

650
00:26:54,447 --> 00:26:55,779
- ( applause )
- Hey. You see?

651
00:26:55,781 --> 00:26:58,716
It's a different ball game
on a presidential level.

652
00:26:58,718 --> 00:27:00,284
Charm only gets you so far.

653
00:27:00,286 --> 00:27:02,219
You're right, ma'am.
There's a lot more to...

654
00:27:02,221 --> 00:27:04,888
- We love you, Tom!
- To it than that.

655
00:27:04,890 --> 00:27:06,857
- Mm-hmm. How are you?
- I'm good.

656
00:27:06,859 --> 00:27:09,360
- Hey. Tom James.
- Patrick Murray.

657
00:27:09,362 --> 00:27:10,494
What do you do here, Patrick?

658
00:27:10,496 --> 00:27:12,763
I basically cut
hard dentil mouldings.

659
00:27:12,765 --> 00:27:14,131
You're the guy
I've been looking for.
660
00:27:14,133 --> 00:27:16,600
I've worked here
17 years, ma'am.

661
00:27:16,602 --> 00:27:17,434
Oh, thank you.

662
00:27:17,436 --> 00:27:20,170
Are you able to emboss
harder species of wood?

663
00:27:20,172 --> 00:27:22,473
Yeah, we emboss
hard maple right here.

664
00:27:22,475 --> 00:27:23,574
Can you combine that?

665
00:27:23,576 --> 00:27:27,678
- The emboss and the dentil moulding?
- Yes, sir, you can.

666
00:27:28,614 --> 00:27:30,147
Sue around?

667
00:27:35,655 --> 00:27:36,787
Whew.
Thanks.

668
00:27:36,789 --> 00:27:38,656
- It's too ornate, right?
- Exactly.

669
00:27:38,658 --> 00:27:40,991
You don't want to do it.
I know I don't.

670
00:27:40,993 --> 00:27:42,159
Hey, I'm gonna have
to cut you off.

671
