(people chanting in Spanish)

What the hell?

(chanting continues)

Holdup at the gate.

Looks like we got a
welcoming committee.

Hey! This is private property.

Clear the entrance!

You can't come in and take
what you want anymore!

Chile is our country,
and this is our gold!

(chanting continues)

Come on, let's go.

Pablo, back
in the truck!

(shouting in Spanish)

(crowd clamoring)

(engine starts)

(truck horn blows)

Okay, we're going in.

(truck horn continues blowing)

(grunts)

Can't, because we are
totally ready to go.

(grunts)

Alison's even got
her coat on.

But I'll tell you what,
one last thing though.

You know those, um...

oh, gosh, those
blueberry-lemon muffins

at Angelina's
that I love?

Do you want
a muffin?
No.

All right, just two.
You know what? Get four.

And then whatever you
want, okay? Of course.

You have to ask, not me.

I will.
ELIZABETH:
Yes, I did see that.

So, the protests are
in Santiago now, too?

(sighs)
Okay, I'll come in.

But let's make it really quick,
okay? Thanks, Blake.

Okay, who is excited for

some college tour action?

Um, maybe you should hang back.

Stevie said she
could take me.

What?

I actually wouldn't mind

a break
from studying.
(phone vibrating)

And it does sound like
you have your hands full.

What, that?

That's, uh...

it's a little kerfuffle
at a gold mine in Chile.

Just ten minutes at the office,
that's it. Okay?

It's just...

college is supposed
to be my thing,

and if we show up in a motorcade
with diplomatic security

and you and Blake
constantly on the phone...

I know, total bummer.

Which is why I got us
down to two cars,

and I asked Blake specifically
to tell the school

not to make a fuss
about anything.

Because I get it, Ali,
you want to be normal,

but that goes for me,
too, you know.

And this is a really big deal,

and I don't want
to miss out on it,

and I really
want to come.

Okay. Let's go.

Okay!

Okay, okay.
And you know what?

I'll tell you what.

Stevie'll come, too.

It'll be...

Look at that,
you already packed a bag.

Yeah, you know,
just in case.

So what do we have on this girl?

We confirmed the
marriage to Jibral Disah

took place in January,
possibly December.

Oh, well, that's
definitive.

You couldn't find
a more recent photo?

It's a school I.D. photo
from 2011.

Records are spotty
after the fall of Gaddafi.

There's almost nothing online.

Yeah, ISR drone's been on
the Al Wahat District 24/7,

but it's pretty hard
to get facial recognition

when she's only ever
out in a niqab.

You said this Hijriyyah business
was the key

to getting Disah
before he attacks us

with another dirty bomb.

I'm not hearing
any doors opening.

It's gonna take time.

Patience and pattern analysis,

building more covert assets
on the ground.

This can't be another ten-year
quilting circle like bin Laden.

Hizb al-Shahid is ready

to attack us again.
They got plenty

of leftover uranium, they're
recruiting our own citizens.

We need to
find that girl

so we can take them down. Now.

We can move faster,

but that means
taking bigger risks.

Losing Mimi was
a pretty big risk.

Not my call.

I'm talking about who
to reach out to next.

Disah has dozens of
powerful enemies in Libya,

most of them
militia leaders vying for power.

They want to take Disah down.

That's a motivation
we can exploit.

HENRY:
We already got burned by someone
we thought we could trust.

These guys,
we kno we can't trust.

You want to get the lowest,

you have to work
with the lowest.

It's risky, but I've
seen it yield good intel.

I have to agree
with Henry on this.

We might be able to exploit
a common interest now,

but how many times has covert
ops handed a gun to extremists

only to have it
turned on us later?

Sounds like we don't have
much of a choice.

Well, w... there might be
another way.

This photograph was taken at
Al-Taria Academy in Tripoli.

I checked into the faculty.

There's a teacher living
in Delaware under a visa.

She taught there
at the same time.

Was she Hijriyyah's teacher?

That I don't know,
but it's worth looking into.

High risk
of exposure

if this woman
has any loyalties back home.

Well, we might be able
to use the visa status,

get some leverage.

And risk losing
our only advantage?

Which is that, so far,

no one knows
we're looking for this girl.

All it takes
is one word

to make her flee
our area of interest,

and we're screwed.

And talking to warlords is

not risking exposure?

All right. Henry, go talk
to this teacher with Jane.

Jose,

reach out to CIA,
see what assets you can find.

If all we got are two bad ideas,
let's see which one works.

Good morning.
Morning.

Here's a copy of today's agenda.

Thank you.
And did you get the...

Four lemon-blueberry
and a vegan scone,

in case Stevie joined us.

That's just eerie.

Mm. Thank you.

Uh, also, I took the liberty
of highlighting

various students' online reviews

of professors
at Rafferty College.

The debate professor is
wonderfully polarizing.

Mom, I don't think
you pay Blake enough.

Oh, I am sure I don't.

Okay.

Not that I don't love
seeing your faces,

but explain to me again
why I had to be here

to discuss protests
at a gold mine in Chile.

The demonstrations are
growing at the mine,

as well as
in Santiago.

Well, it's not surprising
people might object

to moving an entire glacier
to dig the gold out.

It's not so much
the glacier

as the strong whiff
of neocolonialism

in a U.S. company
coming in to cart off

most of a Latin American
country's gold to el norte.

Wait. This company, Hercutel,

bought the rights
from the Chilean government...

Yes.
...fair and square?

Yes, the terms of which
were fully agreed upon

with Chile's Minister of Mining.

But now, President Contreras

has found that she's had
a change of heart.

It's her incendiary statements
to the press,

accusing Hercutel of negotiating

far more than
their fair share of profit,

that sparked the protest.

Of course,
what she doesn't mention

is that the Hercutel deal
follows the same terms

as every other mining contract
in the region.

So she's spinning the truth
to try to look tough.

Still not sure
how State figures here.

JAY: Yesterday, one of
Hercutel's employees,

an American, was injured

when a protester
hit him with a rock.

NADINE:
Hercutel wants assurance

of its employees' safety.

And the White House
has made it clear

that this is a priority.

Ah. Well.

Now I understand why I'm here.

Okay.

Um, Matt...

Hmm?
...draft a statement

to Foreign Minister Torres

reminding him of
his country's responsibility

to protect our workers.

Emphasize the impact
on Chile's economy

should they jeopardize
their trade agreement with us.

So threaten to break up
with them if they cheat on us.

Or at least stop
hitting us with rocks.

Okay. I am off

to try and figure
out how in the world

I'm going to pay for
three liberal arts educations

before I retire.

French horn.

Huh?

It's a guaranteed scholarship.

Oh.

Well, somehow I don't see
Alison jumping on that.

But Jason could be in for
a surprising birthday present.

BLAKE:
All right.

First up is the campus tour,

featuring the bell tower
completed in 1857.

Mom, have you seen this blog
about Chilean protesters?

I'm reading it.

And we're in a regular
tour group, right?

No photo op with
the dean or anything?

I was personally assured
by the dean's assistant

of total anonymity.

Donna. Big Sondheim fan.

Okay, will you tell Daisy
the statement's good to go?

We need to get on top
of this with the press.
Yep.

We're here, guys!

Everybody ready?

All right.

Good-bye, Madam Secretary;

hello, just another college mom.
(laughs)

(band playing lively march)

Blake...

I don't understand.

We bonded over Sweeney Todd.

(crowd cheering)

Dean Pistilli?

Blake Moran, hi.

Is Donna here?
Hi. Hi.

Madam Secretary,
it's such an honor.
Oh.

Welcome to Rafferty College.

This is overwhelming.

You... shouldn't have.

It's really the least
we could do.

These are my daughters,
Stevie and Alison.

Hi. It's so nice to meet you.
Fantastic.

Alison is the reason...
Group photo, please,

for the, uh, Rafferty Report!

Bring that banner around.

Okay? Good.

Okay.

(camera clicks)

(students laughing, whooping)

BECCA: Uh, and to your right,
you will see a display

of what we here at Rafferty

nobly refer to as
the Wasting of Time.

Wow. That's an important part
of the curriculum,

if I recall.
(laughter)

You're killing it with
the college crowd, ma'am.

BECCA: And lest you think
we have too much fun,

up ahead is the Science
and Technology Center.

Isn't that where the Fashion
and Design department is?

Uh, yeah, temporarily,

until they're finished
with their new building.

Are you F&D?
Hoping.

I should've guessed
from the cool boots.

ELIZABETH:
Well, hey,

is there any chance
that we could

check out some of
the classrooms?

Oh, I'm pretty sure
you get to go

wherever you want to,
Madam Secretary.

See? Upside.

Secretary McCord?

Excuse me, Secretary...

I'm just trying to talk to
my government representative.

Are you infringing
on my rights?

Hey, it's okay, it's...
How can I help you guys?

What are you doing to stop
the rapacious plunder

of Chile's
natural resources

by the U.S. corporation
Hercutel?

ELIZABETH: I am aware
of the situation.

You're "aware," which means
you intend to do nothing.

And meanwhile,
Hercutel is destroying

one of the few glaciers
we have left, literally

moving mountains
to steal gold.
If I can...

How does it feel
to be the puppet

of an imperialist government,
Secretary Cortez?

BLAKE: Hey, guys,
you know what?

Thank you, but we're gonna
continue on our tour.

Hang on a second.

If the situation
were as black and white

as some of the coverage online,
I would be

as outraged
as all of you.

Can you not violate
my personal space, please?

You haven't answered
my question.

Do you or do you not
plan to respond

to the demands of
the Chilean people?

Mom. Forget it.

They're not listening.

I always listen to
the voice of protest.

But protest can sometimes,
necessarily, simplify things.

The truth is, an
agreement was made

between an American corporation
and the Chilean government,

a deal that both
sides agreed upon.

Our government, in particular
the Department of State,

does not have the power
to interfere

on a legitimate contract,
even if...

MAN:
Viva Allende!

(loud pop)
Down! Down on the ground! Now!

MAN:
Yeah! (whoops)

It's just confetti, man.

So much for normal.

*

Well, you can't say
that Rafferty students

aren't politically engaged.
Hang on.

Well, I-I could do with
a little less engagement.

Ugh.
You okay?

Yeah. That's the one.

Got it. Good. Hey.

Who is up
for a little room service?

Not hungry.

Hey. Come on.

I know. It's not about me.

Are you kidding?
It's all about you.

You're the reason
why we're here.

Come on. Let's
go to that...

Wh-What's that thing
they're having tonight?

It's something called the
Husky Dining Hall Experience,

followed by
a comedy improv show.

You know we can't
leave this room

without causing an incident.
Can't we just go home?

Listen to me.

If I have learned anything, it
is how fast the news cycle is.

This whole thing is probably
gonna be blown over by tomorrow.

Just in time for
the breakfast presentation

on the admissions process,

followed by an overview
of clubs and activities.

You memorized
the schedule?

I don't think it's gonna
blow over by tomorrow.

MAN: What are you doing
to stop the rapacious plunder

of Chile's natural resources by
the U.S. corporation Hercutel?

ELIZABETH:
Protest can simplify things.

MAN: Which means
you intend to do nothing.

ELIZABETH:
Our government has no power...

That's completely
not what I said. I...

Except it's the Internet,
so now it is.
(cell phone chimes)

Ma'am.

MAN: Literally moving
mountains to steal gold.

ELIZABETH: And the
Chilean government...
MAN: How does it feel...

Listen, before you
say anything...

You couldn't tell those infants

that the State Department
has no authority over

a private business deal?

That is exactly
what I told them!

They edited
that part out!

Then you need to find a way
to put it back in!

Thanks to your circus act,

not only are more idiot protests
springing up

on college campuses, but now
the Chileans are putting a stay

on Hercutel's mining operation.

Chile is shutting down Hercutel

because some college kids
yelled at me?

No, because you failed
to put this thing to bed,

like I asked!

Russell, it has been
a very long morning,

so I'm just gonna ask.

We've got Hizb al-Shahid
running around with dirty bombs.

Why is it that one mine
shutting down in the Andes

is a problem
for the administration?

Every screwup is a problem
for this administration!

(phone beeps)

(over speaker): Look, Hercutel
is headquartered in Oregon,

home state of Dalton's
congressional ally,

Senator Westrick.

The deal Hercutel made
with the Chileans

is upward of two billion
in revenue.

So...

we keep Hercutel happy,

then Dalton keeps
Westrick in his corner.

Which we need.

So get that mine
back up and running,

and then get those
diaper-wearing toddlers

on campus to love you.

What, apologize for being
misrepresented?

Win them back with
your witty tweets.

Or do a duet with Colbert.

I don't care what you do.

But the youth vote counts.

And you just piled it up
and lit it on fire.

ELIZABETH: Minister Torres,
I'll make this brief.

We need Hercutel to resume its
mining operation immediately.

It's only a temporary
suspension, Madam Secretary,

to restore order in a time
of civil unrest.

I'm sure you can understand.

That, I understand.

But what I don't
understand is

why Chile isn't honoring
the mineral rights agreement

you already agreed
to with Hercutel.

Right now, President Contreras's
greater concern must be

the safety and well-being
of the Chilean people.

And my concern is for
the safety and well-being

of our U.S. citizens,

who are getting hit
in the head with rocks

because your president is out
there whipping up protesters

to try to look tough
on-- and I quote--

"the plunders
of the north."

Now, believe me,

I understand your president
has an election to win.

If you're implying
that President Contreras

is willing to sacrifice
Chile's business relationships

for the sake
of her poll numbers...

The U.S. Commerce Department
and State Department

annually assess
the global investment climate.

If Chile reneges on
its contract with Hercutel

and continues to suspend
its operations,

that could sink your assessment,

basically ending foreign
investment in your economy.

And that definitely
won't win any elections.

I will pass your concerns
on to President Contreras.

I look forward to her response.

MAN: Ayyad.
WOMAN: Yes.

MAN:
Immigration's here to see you.

Uh, you can take
your break early.

Okay. Uh, thank you.

Laila Ayyad?
Yes.

Hello. I'm with U.S.
Customs and Immigration.

I just need to ask
you a few questions.

Is there a problem?
Not at all.

It's part of the new
security measures.

Do you mind?

If she thinks she's being
investigated, she'll shut down.

Yeah.

Hey, keep it friendly, okay?

Uh, let's move into
work history.

How long did you teach
Islamic literature

at Al-Taria Academy
in Tripoli?

Three years.

Seven years before that
in Misurata.

Uh, I put all this down
on my application.

Ask her if she still
has family in Libya.

And do you still
have family there?

We had no connection to
the Gaddafi regime, none of us.

That's fine.

Now, can you tell us...

were any of
these students yours?

What does this have to do
with my application

for citizenship?

AGENT:
As I said, this is all part

of a routine background check.

Ask about the father.
No, it's too soon.

Too soon. No, don't ask.
Time is running out. Ask.

(sighs)

One of your students,
Hijriyyah Al Bouri,

was the daughter
of Idris Al Bouri.

Do you remember her?

I'm sorry, my break is over.

If you could answer
the question.

I don't remember.

I'm sorry.

Damn it.

Well...
(sighs)

She clearly
has something.

Yeah, we'll never
get it now.

Okay, we made
the wrong approach.

Let's go to her openly.

We know she was
a passionate teacher.

Let's see if you can connect
with her as an educator.

That's a pretty big
leap of faith.

You're good at those, right?

(protesters chanting
in distance)

STEVIE:
Ugh!

I give up.

Want to watch a
crappy pay-per-view?

Why can't I just
explain it to them?

Because they grew up thinking
that all conflict is injustice.

That's what you get

for giving everyone a
trophy for showing up.

(knocking on door)

Well, for someone who got
quite a few of those trophies,

you turned out way cool,

you know that?

Thanks, Ma.

(door opens)

Hi. Sorry to bother you.
Yes, well,

teeming horde
already beat you to it.
Ah.

Are you never not fully groomed?

It's before 10:00 p.m.

I just got word from
Minister Torres's office.

It seems that Chile
has lifted the stay,

and mining operations
will resume in the morning.

Well, that's great news
for Russell Jackson,

not so good for
the teeming horde.

Yogurt pretzels, anyone?
Ooh, me!

Which brings me
to my second bit of news.

Daisy wanted you
to see this immediately.

Hello. I am Hugo.

I am from the Inhawoji Nation
of the Magallanes in Chile.

Inhawoji has lived on
this mountain for 6,000 years.

She is our mother.

She gives us food, family, life.

But the government of Chile
sell our home to the Americans.

They break our treaty

and let them break our mother
and take her gold.

6,000 years of Inhawoji
will be finish.

I will not let this happen.

I, Hugo, I will climb
this mountain.

I will save my home.

Or I will look at her
one last time

before she is gone forever.

Tell me this isn't real.

It was posted by an indigenous
human rights group in Chile.

He made the same video in
Spanish and his native language.

It says he'll be
doing a live feed

until he reaches
the top or dies,

whichever comes first.
He could die?

Well, temperatures at the
peak at this time of year

average negative 40
degrees, so yes.

If he's right,

if Chile violated a treaty with
their own indigenous people,

then everything that these kids
are yelling could be true.

I hate to say it, but if
this thing's up already,

it kind of doesn't matter
whether it's true or not.

Not going there yet.

No, she's right.

Nobody cares about

the legal sale
of mineral rights,

but you give 'em
an indigenous James Franco

taking his righteous cause
up the mountain with a GoPro?

ALISON: Hey, what are
you guys watching?

Is that The Amazing Race?

(sighs)

The Ministry of Indigenous
Peoples is confirming

that the Chilean government
did in fact violate

a treaty with the
Inhawoji people

when they sold the mineral
rights to their land

without their consent.

And no one ever thought
this was worth mentioning?

Department of Commerce
admitted they got a report

on the treaty violation and
then never passed it on.

Has the president been informed?

Uh, they will be
held accountable.

Have we told Hercutel?

DAISY:
I spoke with their PR rep.

They're saying they never knew
the glacier was native land.

Cue the denials.

Not from us.

I want to be very
clear on that.

Because the next time student
protesters yell at me

about letting this
happen on my watch,

they're gonna be right.

Let's tell Hercutel they have
to shut down the operation.

MATT:
On it.

Thank you, everyone.

NADINE: Uh, ma'am,
there's one other thing.

Uh, one of the students from
the confrontation yesterday

has filed a lawsuit
against the State Department.

I'm sorry. Come again?

He feels the DS agent
violated his personal space.

It's the
confetti-bomb guy.

They were a little
rough taking him down.

Uh, no, no,

it was another one.

The, uh, vocal one.

The guy who was just
standing there yelling at us?

The screamer feels
we violated his...

The government made me yell
and now my throat hurts?

Guys, do you know how
fast something like this

could turn an election?

I mean, it's just
ridiculous enough to get

way more coverage
than it deserves.

(sighs)
What's the kid's name?

He's choosing not to reveal that
in the suit.

(laughs)

Brian Andrew Lindstrom.

He lives in Foster Hall.

We'll take care of it.

ELIZABETH: No, no, no.
This one I want.

Don't worry, I'm not gonna
violate his personal space,

much as I would love to.

We have the faculty tea
in ten minutes.

The girls will
meet us there.

It's supposed to be
by the library.

(protestors chanting in Spanish)

Oh, no, here we go.

(chanting continues)

PROTESTORS: U.S. out of Chile!
U.S. out of Chile!

They're in costume?

Oh, God, I've got...
I've got to get this.

What are you doing?
Put that away.

Let go! Stop! Stop!
Come on. They're coming.

Uh... hey, sorry.

It's cool.

Your secret's safe with me.

You know who I am?

It's chill.

My dad's on
the Chicago City Council.

Actually, I was egged once
by a mob of teachers

at a contract negotiation,
so I totally understand

the fear of an angry public.

I'm Ken.

Alison.

Are you here
for Prospective Week or...?

Yeah, we're supposed to go
to this faculty tea thing.

Do you know
where MacDougall Hall is?

Yeah, it's right by the library,
other side of the quad.

This is my
sister Stevie.

Hey.
Hey.

We should go.

What do you think
of Rafferty?

It's cool.

I actually, I kind of
flamed out in high school,

so this is a pretty good place
to start over.

And how's the
social life?

Just the usual
lame Greek stuff.

Sorry if you're into
that kind of thing.
No.

But there's actually
a party tonight off-campus.

My roommate's deejaying.
You should come by.

Maybe I will.

Uh, the coast is clear.
But thanks for your help.

Keep your head down.

Hey!

The last thing
that Mom needs right now

is for you to get busted
for underage drinking.

I won't drink.

Excuse me, Ms. Ayyad?

Yes?

Hi, my name
is Henry McCord.

I work
for the U.S. government.

You're not in any trouble.

I just...
I was just wondering

if I could have
a few minutes of your time?

Why do you people keep
showing up at my work?

I know you have
my phone number.

You can't call me?

I'm sorry
for the inconvenience.

I am studying
for my citizenship.

I know I don't have
to talk to you.

And I already told the last
one everything I know,

which is nothing,
so are we done here?

Well, at least let me buy you a
cup of coffee for your trouble.

I haven't had lunch.

There's a diner
around the corner.

I'll just have coffee, thanks.

Do you like your job?

Loading ink cartridges
and listening to idiots? Sure.

(chuckles)
You must miss teaching.

I miss a lot of things.

I'm a teacher, too.

Ethics, morality,
religious studies.

But only to college students,
never high school.

Well, then you're
missing something.

Lighting them up
for the first time.

That age where they're
so passionate.

Falling in love, getting
their hearts broken.

That's when poetry
can literally save you.

I have two kids in high school.

One is actually looking
at colleges right now.

It's killing me.

Lucky kid.

Wasn't an option
for most of my girls.

We're interested in
one of your former students.

Hijriyyah Al Bouri.

We believe she was in your
Islamic literature class

four years ago.

I don't remember her.

But it was a very bad time.

Many students disappeared.

Laila, I want you to understand

that nothing you say to me will
have any impact on your brother

or his family in Sirte.

You have my word, okay?

Thank you.

This girl has been used
like a chess piece--

denied her freedom,
denied an education,

forced into a horrible situation
against her will.

And so now you want to use her
to get something you want.

So, still a chess piece.

Your homeland
is a mess right now.

That's why you're here.

I can't tell you why we
need to find Hijriyyah.

But we believe that
what we're trying to do

could give Libya
the chance to become

the country it
deserves to be,

the country it should've
been after Gaddafi.

And this girl, who's had
so little opportunity,

who's no longer allowed

to be educated
by people like you,

she could actually
help make that happen.

She could be the beginning
of a huge change.

For herself,
for your country...

...and for your family.

She had one foot out of school

before she even
sh-showed up in my class.

I-I barely remember her.

So, you did teach her?

I doubt I taught her much.

What if I could help you

get the rest of your family
out of Libya?

Help you become
a teacher again.

Would you be able to help me?

How?

A group e-mail to all
her former students,

checking up on them
after moving away.

Just a concerned teacher
reaching out.

No risk of exposure.

And she thinks these old e-mail
addresses are still gonna work?

This country doesn't have
running water right now,

much less
Internet access.

Jose's right.

Let's send in Special Ops.

Why bother with an inexpensive,

low-risk, nonviolent option
that could yield intel?

The idea being
if this girl responds...?

We get an I.P. address,

which gets us
that much closer to Disah.

At least get a drone
on her and wait.

See if he shows up.

Hey, at worst, we get some hits

from other students
we can try to use.

There are some Internet cafes.

It's worth a shot.

The e-mail would have to go
through us, obviously.

Everything will be linked
to our servers.

Any replies will come
straight to us.

Laila already sent me a draft.

You got till tomorrow morning
to see if you get any hits.

Then we move on
with Jose's plan.

ELIZABETH:
Excuse me, guys.

Sorry.
(rap music playing)

Why are we here?
This is embarrassing.

It's a teachable moment, and
I want you to be a part of it.

At least we're getting
a good look at student housing.

Right.
Uh, excuse me, fellas?

Brian Lindstrom's room?

Uh, 417.
Oh.

Hey, Brian, Secretary of
State Elizabeth McCord.

Uh, yeah, I know.

I wanted to follow up
on our conversation yesterday.

Uh, look, if this is
about the harassment suit,

you'll have to talk
to my lawyer.

Right, about that.

Um, I understand that you felt
threatened by Matt here.

And he's an intimidating guy,

especially when he thinks
I'm in danger.

But he was just doing his job.

Sorry if I violated
your safe space, Brian.

Nice try, guys.

But you can't just show up
to my door and intimidate me

like I'm some developing nation
you can't control.

That's right.

I can't.

But I-I think
I know someone who can.

Blake?
Yeah.

Hello? Can you hear me?

Mom?

(laughter, murmuring)

Brian, what is going on?

You're suing
the Secretary of State

for violating you?

You know
what "violating" means?

(whispers): Do you want
to do this inside?

(laughter, murmuring continues)

I have a right
to a safe learning environment.

That's what you guys
are paying for.

FATHER: We're paying
for you to get an education.

And I'm starting to wonder
if it's money well spent.

And a lawsuit against
the U.S. government.

Who's paying for that?

There's a legal aid clinic
in town.

They fight
against injustice.

FATHER:
Will you listen to this kid?

Some security guy
bumping into you

is not an injustice.

I was exercising
my right to free speech.

They were trying to silence me!

(sighs)
God, it's like he's two.

You're dropping
the lawsuit, Bri.

Or you can pay your own tuition.

If I may, um,

I think the thing
getting lost here,

uh, Mr. and Mrs. Lindstrom, is

your son's passionate commitment
to social justice.

Young people
rising up against

the abuse of power has been
a force for change many times

in this country,
and Brian was right.

Not about the mining contract--
that was legitimate.

But about the larger issue.

The brutal legacy of colonialism

asserting itself
once again in Chile.

That... turned out
to be true.

And, Brian, without you guys
and the Chilean citizens

rising up against what
you thought was wrong,

the Inhawoji people

might not have dared
raise their voices, too,

and found a world
ready to listen.

Thanks, Mrs. Secretary.

Madam Secretary.

Don't stop
speaking truth to power.

But maybe

the best way to call upon
our better selves

is for you to show us yours.

MATT:
Come on, don't hold back.

How'd you get college baby
to drop the lawsuit?

Was it a total smack down?

Let's just say his parents
helped him see reason.

She's being modest.
It was a smack down.

Where are we with Hercutel?

NADINE:
Well, the head of operations

in Chile was less than thrilled

to be told to suspend operations
only hours after resuming them.

Now Chile is demanding
to be reimbursed

for the loss of royalties
from the sale of the land.

Wait, what?

How are they in a position
to demand anything

when they're the ones
who violated the treaty

with their own people?

Actually, Chile does have
the right to be compensated.

But we might
have a solution.

We consulted with
International Crisis Collective,

an environmental NGO
based in Chile.

It turns out it's feasible
to move the mining site

lower on the glacier,
preserving the Inhawoji's land,

and instead go up inside
the glacier to extract the gold.

That sounds like a move
I tried in high school.

(Elizabeth chuckles)

What's the catch?

NADINE: Well, it's
expensive, for one thing.

JAY:
And would require the oversight

of a third party NGO
to ensure the process

preserves the agriculture
of the Inhawoji people.

But if we can figure
that part out,

Hercutel gets to
keep its gold,

Dalton gets to keep his
favorite congressman happy,

and Hugo can come down
from the mountain and go home.

It's like we solved a
Rubik's Cube with our feet.

Yeah, well, speaking of which,

where is Chile with the
rescue mission for Hugo?

It looks like he's
really getting up there.

JAY: They were planning
a rescue this afternoon,

but a blizzard started
kicking up near the peak, so...

they're waiting
for conditions to clear.

We got a hit.

From Hijriyyah?

Just now.
What's the I.P.?

I don't know yet; we
just... it just came in.

(computer chimes)

South Korea.
They're covering their tracks.

At least we know
she's got Internet.

I'll run this through
a translator.

"My dear Miss Ayyad:

"It is strange
to hear from you,

"like a message from
another lifetime.

"You'll be surprised to hear
that I think of you often.

"You'll hardly recognize
Tripoli now, or me.

"But I still remember
the afternoon you took us

"to the courtyard to
eat pistachio ice cream

"and read from
the Qur'an.

"I think often of a
verse you read that day:

"'Tell he who carries
their sorrows

"'that there is no
sorrow that endures.

"Just as delight perishes,
so too perishes sorrow.'

"I love that verse.

"And I remember
the one after.

"I hope you are well
in a new country

"and that you still enjoy
pistachio ice cream.

Hijriyyah."

That's a good hit.

That verse is
not from the Qur'an.

No, it's not.

It's from A Thousand
and One Arabian Nights.

What? Oh, of course it is.

Yeah, it's from the beginning,
right before

Scheherazade's father marries
her off to King Shahryar,

who's been marrying and killing
a new virgin every night.

It's a pretty obvious reference.

Maybe Laila will remember
what verse they read next.

Or maybe it's just what comes
right after that line.

Okay, listen to this.

"God be upon you, Father,
marry me to this king.

"For either I live or, in dying,
I will rescue the daughters

of the Muslims from his hands."

Sounds like more
of the same.

She's bummed her father married
her off to a ruthless terrorist.

Or she's ready to be
part of something greater.

Yeah, maybe.

Either way, she's sending up
a distress signal.

And it's possible
that she's willing

to save more than just herself.

Well, if that's true,

we might have more than
just a way to find Disah.

We might have an asset
inside his house

ready to take him down.

Ali, people are going crazy

about these protesters
dressing up like natives.

(phone beeping quietly)

ELIZABETH (over phone):
They can't get the chopper

up there
because of the blizzard,

so they're gonna have to wait
till tomorrow morning.

It's unbearable.

You got to admire his courage.

Not to mention the genius use
of social media.

That part makes me
even more nervous.

If this guy doesn't make it,
God forbid,

he's gonna become an easy symbol
for everyone who wants to paint

the U.S. as
heartless imperialists.

Won't matter
that it wasn't our doing.

Hey. Uh, Ali wants to go to this
poetry reading thing on campus.

I told her I'd take her.

Uh, do you mind?

No, not at all.

We'll be back by, like,
11:00 or something.

Um, poetry reading?

(door closes)

(laughs):
I know.

It's like she's this
whole other person.

Today, she-- wait a minute--
she sat in on this design class,

and she brought back
the most incredible drawings.

(rumbling over computer)

You cannot believe it. It's...

(Hugo grunting frantically,
rumbling continues)

Babe, are you seeing this?

(grunting, rumbling
continues over computer)

(audio stops abruptly)

Henry.

No, no, the witch who hatched
all the dragon eggs.

(laughs)
She's not a witch.

She's one of the last survivors
of the House Targaryen,

which you would know
if you read the books.

(chuckles) Thank you
for the mansplain, Kenneth.

What are you doing here?

Do you know how much
trouble you would be in

if Mom knew that
you were here?

So I wanted to be
a normal person for one hour.

What's the big deal?

You cannot just take
off without telling us.

I'm not you, okay?

I'm not gonna flame out
my first year

because I can't deal.
You don't know what
you're talking about.

And you know why?

Because you make everything
this huge deal.

When was the last time
you did something fun?

I'm fun.

No, you're not.

And neither is Mom.

You've both completely lost
your ability to have fun.

Great.

(camera clicks)

Great. Yeah, okay.

Come on, guys,
delete the photos.

Or what?

Your mom and her fascist
goons will hunt me down?

Fascism is the direct opposite
of a representative democracy,

which you happen to be
lucky enough to live in

thanks to people like our mother
who defend it every single day.

And by the way,
you attacking

and trying to silence people
because they don't agree

with what you think
kind of makes you the fascist.

(burps)

I just wrote a paper
on World War Two.

Nice work on Mussolini.

(laughs)

Heavy snowfall and strong winds

triggered the deadly avalanche
that struck earlier tonight...

I have confirmation
the Chilean rescue team

is due within an hour.

Let's hope he
can hold on.

(door opens)

Hey.

Hey.

What's going on?

Uh, there was an avalanche.

We lost contact with Hugo.

REPORTER: ...for mining
its glaciers for gold.

A major rescue operation
is underway.

How could he possibly
survive an avalanche?

It's all about the
crucial first minutes

before the
snow settles.

You get an arm up in
front of your face,

create an air pocket
so that you can breathe.

Then you spit
to see which way is up.

Swim like mad
to get to the surface,

hopefully before you suffocate.

What? Boy Scouts.

Ma'am, while we're waiting,

would you like an update
on the Hercutel deal?

Might as well.

The International
Crisis Collective

has agreed to supervise
the new mining methods.

The Ministry of Mining
in Chile is drafting

a contract right now.

And Hercutel--
they agreed to the new deal?

JAY: The CEO was
dodging my calls all day,

but I just got word
from his assistant.

After meeting with the board,
Hercutel determined that,

rather than risk the projected
nine percent reduction

in profits in the alternate
extraction method,

the company will
move the operation

to another gold deposit
in the Argentine Andes

near Tucumán.

So all that was
for nothing?

If I'm not mistaken,

doesn't that still solve
all of our problems?

If you mean Hercutel still gets
to rape the land with impunity--

uh, sorry,

extract precious minerals--

then, yeah,
it works out for them.

And the White House

keeps Senator Westrick happy.

And President Contreras
gets to say

she effectively
stopped the Americans

from mining her
country's resources.

So, win for her.

You guys.
Look.

REPORTER: We have confirmed
movement, which appears to be

the Inhawoji man
who was climbing the glacier.

(chuckles):
Whoa. What?

(laughter)

REPORTER:
We are confirming Hugo is alive.

STEVIE:
That's amazing.

REPORTER:
He has survived the avalanche.

Yeah!

The youth vote is saved.

(sighs)

That, my friends,

is as close as we're going
to get to a happy ending.

(laughs)

Mom? Mom?

Hmm?

We need to talk.

Is it protesters? What?

No. It's Alison.

She says we're not fun.

What?

She said that we used to be fun
and now we're not.

Stevie, can we just...

Let's wait till tomorrow when
we're at the breakfast buffet

with those waffles
and the weird bacon.

Mom, she's right.

(sighs)

When's the last time
we played cards?

(chuckles):
What?

We used to play cards
all the time.

And you would let me eat
that marshmallow creme

straight out of the jar.

We never do
stuff like that anymore.

Because the marshmallow creme,
it made you sick.

No.

We're so careful
all the time.

(sighs)

You want to play Go Fish?

No.

(footsteps through snow)

(laughter)

(shrieks)
Let's go! Come on, Mom!

Ma'am, I do need
to advise you against this.

Advice taken.

Do you have a tray?

No, ma'am, I don't.

You're gonna have
a hard time keeping up.

Ma'am, I really
don't...

Set?
Yes.

And go, go!

(shrieking playfully)

Ma'am!

(laughter)

AGENT MATT:
Ma'am?
