Original subtitles

You can tell him what you're really

doing. Moscow has lost contact with the

submarine asset. I have asked the North

Sea nations to pool their marine sensor

data in the hopes of finding the sub. I'm

so sorry. In a day or so, he's going to

go back to Washington, and I'm going to

take all your clothes off. The United

States was responsible for the British

carrier attack.

I suggested that a situation needed

handling. I'm the name. She's

confessing to Nichols Trowbridge?

The president can't tell Nichols

Trowbridge that it was her. She can say

it was Rayburn. He said, I'm

him. Margaret Roiland orchestrated the

attack, but we believe she did so in the

wake of a conversation with an American

official. We believe that official was

President Rayburn.

I wish to approach Congress. This

travesty was hatched by my former

advisor, Margaret Roiland. This travesty

was hatched by Margaret Roiland, former

advisor to the government. This deadly

attack was orchestrated by Margaret

Roiland. Better. This is the most recent

draft. He'll be the one to say Roiland's

name. Together we'd like to share some

information that recently came to our

attention. This deadly attack was

orchestrated at the behest of

former United States President William

Rayburn.

Just a few minutes behind me, White House

response should convey her shock,

empathy, and distance. Not in that order.

We share the world's dismay and

disappointment. Rayburn stopped her short

of treason. The president needs to

apologize. No. No.

She can't apologize. We punched a friend

in the face. You're suggesting what?

Nothing. She named Rayburn

so we could control the narrative. We

still can. She learned her predecessor

did it. She informed her counterpart and

stood beside him while he broke the news,

as the story holds. Look, if we don't use

it, she gave up Raymond's name for

nothing. She did.

Your kid falls down. He doesn't cry. He

doesn't know he's hurt. He looks at you.

If you don't blink, he gets up.

He's fine. Nicole

Trowbridge and the little island that

couldn't run around staring at us.

Don't tell him he's hurt. Don't tell him

it's our fault. Don't blink. The child

didn't trip. We pushed him out of a

moving car. Protesters are gathering

at 16 embassies. NATO members are

considering a boycott on American

weapons, both Turkey and Hungary and

Germany. If we don't pledge some kind of

restitution, the president needs to call

the PM and apologize. We had an

agreement to contain a piece of critical

intelligence. He broke that. And she's

crawling underneath proposing reparations?

The President wants me to brief her.

One-on-one. Thank you,

everybody.

Ma'am, down.

This is the Ambassador. He needs to

communicate a message from the White

House to Number 10. Okay. The President

is prepared to treat yesterday's event as

a reaction to the Prime Minister's

emotional overwhelm. Her priority now is

setting the record straight. Roy Lin. And

the British role. The President is

magnanimously willing to reveal that

information in a joint address that

allows Trowbridge to save face. Okay,

I'll have Stuart request it as a high

priority demarche. Make it clear that if

Trowbridge does not accept our offer to

do it together, we will tell the world

alone. And our version is that his

advisor blew up his soldiers and he

covered for her. Uh, how

explicitly am I threatening him?Meet in

person. Sell it in the favor.

Go from there.

They're nice people, carrying homemade

science. One lady had a portable kettle.

She was making everybody pee. Sure, I

need a meeting with number 10. Now I...

There was an attempted assault on the

deputy chief of mission this morning.

What the **** is he talking about?Someone

threw a water balloon at my car when I

drove in. Filled with red paint. It

wasn't a big deal. Symbolizing your

blood. The sailor's blood, I think. Is

that better?Emotions are running high.

Have non-essentials work from home. Issue

a warden notice for Americans. Thry,

non-inflammatory. We should invite the

protesters. Absolutely. If they can

present their grievances at the embassy,

I will formally accept them in the lobby.

Give them a win. We'd like you to work

from here. My entire job today is

showing up in that building. I am America

in this country. America cannot be

hiding. America can't. The second lady

can. The marriage press raised your

public profile, which was good, but now

you're exposed. Met Police would need at

least an hour to clear the protest.

Bodily?No, absolutely not. We are in a

PR battle for our lives. We're not

bringing in British cops to tear veterans

and widows off the embassy gates. You can

make it safe without bringing in the

police. You got me in here five minutes

ago. Crouched on the floor of a borrowed

minivan. We could get you in the embassy

that way, but once you announce you're

there... Can't get you out again

without... Clearing the protesters with

police. And then you couldn't meet with

Trowbridge?

Go without me. Use the rear gate. You

don't have to crouch, but if there's red

paint on your car... I'll borrow

something. You want me to start with the

Trowbridge meeting?Yeah, set it someplace

neutral. Obviously, no one should see us.

Coordinate with that one. I'll have to be

someplace I can actually go. I'll call as

soon as we have a time. Who else is here?

At Windhill. These are postings around

the perimeter. I'm rear exit with April.

Dawson and Jack are in the front. Just

Mrs. Moneygate's side. The rest of the

staff will stay at home until the

protests clear. Francis doesn't have to

stay. She wants to. I have a dozen men

with really big guns trawling the

property. What's going to happen to me?

To the house. She

doesn't love the idea of you here

unsupervised.

Can I get you for a second?

Go ahead. I have no business

asking what happened to Amagansett. I

know that. I just want to

understand. What the **** happened last

night?He said it was President Rayburn.

Royland planned the carrier. She hired

Linkoff. Her people almost killed the

man who is currently vice president.

That's what Trowbridge was supposed to

say. He went off script.

So he said President Rayburn did it?

Ma'am, the world thinks

Rayburn was involved. Yeah. Is the

White House going to refute that?No.

Stuart,

Rayburn was involved.

Hey. There are news cameras at your

house. I know. Are you watching?I'm not.

I'm not the park. Are you all right?Yeah,

but I need to speak to you and Nicole

can't know we're talking. Can you come to

me?I really can't.

is it important it's not

unimportant go to the dumpster at the

Hanover Gate playground someone will

bring you in the back

sorry Ulysses um there's someone named

Callum Ellis he was the um

the uh keynote speaker from the North

Sea data forum yes thank you uh

he has an urgent message we need to get

him onto the grounds is that possible it

isThings are delicate right now.

No one should know if he was here. Leave

it with me. Are you gonna put him on the

floor of that car?'Cause it reeks of

goldfish crackers. No. He's at the

Hanover Gate playground.

There's a packed suitcase for you in the

luggage closet. Should this evolve into a

persona on about a situation?They're not

going to expel me from the country. It's

there if they do. PNGing an

American ambassador is like firing a

warning shot with an Uzi. It means you're

fundamentally reassessing the

relationship. Yes.

Ma'am. Ma'am, thank you.

We found the sub. That's great.

No?Twelve miles off our coast. No

survivors. Jesus Christ. Yeah.

That's close. We don't have the

technology to go get it. We do though,

right?Yeah. Okay. I'll

get a cable to DC. They know. They're

willing to help. Nickel won't allow it.

Why?Doesn't want Americans anywhere near

the thing. You need to meet with him. I

am sure anything you want me to say to

him, he would rather hear from you. He

told the country you bombed our ****. If

I tell him to accept your help, it's

humiliating. But if you ask,

you're at his mercy. Like he's

doing me a favor. Yeah. I'm already

meeting him. I'll tack it on.

Just tack it on. I once

convinced him he's the smartest man I'd

ever met. Next time, give me a real

challenge.

I should go. Yeah.

I have to, uh... Also...

Stuart, I've...

Okay. Okay.

Is there another exit?There is no. What

is it?The back gate has been called from

us. Someone noticed a guard started to

shift change. A group has gathered, about

20 people are members of the process. Mr.

Bonaventura. Excuse me.

Nichol sees me on television, walking out

of the American ambassador's house. Yeah,

he'll have you shut. No. They're going to

have to clear an exit with cops as soon

as we find out where I'm eating. Our

precious apologies for the inconvenience.

No, no, no, please. Let us offer you a

meal. Just give me a moment to prepare

the dining room. Francis, you don't have

a kitchen staff. Lunch for two is

something even I can manage. Would you

mind terribly?

Seven?We only boarded during the week.

Years old. That is child

abuse. Family tradition. Then your family

has a tradition of child abuse.

What?

Nothing. What?This

is the longest conversation we've ever

had. No, it

isn't. It is. We have spent

many hours together.

Sometimes talking. Work is not talking.

So nothing said during sex or work is

talking?Is it?

This is our first conversation.

And now it ends.

I am so sorry, Ambassador and Mr. Ellis,

please excuse me. Mr. Opelfund. The

heating system in the orchid house has

malfunctioned. And the Secret Service

will not allow the gardening staff onto

the grounds. This is all going to be over

in a couple of hours. Mr. Opal cares for

11 endangered species. The Department for

the Environment and the Smithsonian

Institution would very much like it if we

protect them. Now, if he cannot get

through the gate, I am needed in his

stead. Oh. Of

course. I will send in a

member of your detail to look after you

while I'm gone. They can stay where they

are. We'll be fine. As usual?Yeah.

Mom. I won't go downstairs.

Thank you.

What's downstairs?The industrial kitchen.

Where, for insurance purposes,

I'm not allowed. I

inadvertently broke a few

things. Ah.

I have never been in this house

by myself. Really?

Not for a minute.

We could play tennis in the blue room

right now. Do you play tennis?No.

Francis!

We've never had sex in a physical space

this lot. We have not. Have

we ever had sex horizontal?

We haven't.

Socks. It's not your priority as I'm

taking off my trappers. It really is.

Socks really.

Yes, I can.

I left a message. Tim told me to call you

if we didn't hear back.

Yeah, several hours ago. Can I speak to

Clark?All right.

Okay. Thank you. Nothing. We

can't get past reception anywhere in

Whitehall. Try number threes. Number

threes always take up. We need to talk

about protection. You worried about wind

fields?You. You were the

victim of attempted assault this morning.

We should talk to the RSO. You might need

a temporary detail.

Okay. Funny. We're done.

We're not. It was paid in a water

balloon. Paid representing blood. We're

in a crisis and you're getting targeted.

By Nickelodeon. Thank you for your

concern. Is there anything you actually

need?No. I'm

getting nowhere with the protesters. They

don't want to send in reps. They don't

want to give demands. We are trying to

de-escalate. They don't want to

de-escalate. No. They just want to be

angry. They want to scream.

Try this. They're incredible.

Hmm?Nice. My country?

Tomatoes taste like nothing. This is a

******* miracle. It is a miracle. Will

you please pass me the books?Besides your

knee, right there. Where'd the condom go?

I took care of it. How?

I handled it.

Do you need to know?I've never needed to

know anything just badly.

I had a... a freezer

bag in my thing. In my pocket.

You carry a baggie for used condoms?

Proms. I had them in the park.

Why'd you keep the baggie?It's a plastic

freezer bag. You're supposed to reuse

them. And now you have. Mm-hmm.

You are a gentleman.

What?It's them of you to come here. Oh,

awesome. You needed help. I'm a good

option. You're a great ******* option.

You come here, you see the cameras, the

smart thing to do is retreat. Get

somebody else to talk to Trowbridge. I

needed it to be you. Even if there's him

to do this. You know him, you've

dealt with him before. I'm also the

second lady. Yeah, I mean.

used to me. It's part of the strategy. I

get it. I'm a big girl. Strategy...

is... Nicole

loves you. He loves proximity to power.

No, no, no. I've seen his face. When you

leave a room,

I... I know what it feels like when Kate

Wyler leaves a room. And you've no idea

when you're going to see her again. The

man's a crush.

what's that I can't get through the

meeting what I can't get through the

meeting with Trowbridge who did you talk

to at number 10 I didn't

they're not speaking to us diplomatic

channels have gone silent you tried

Dennison I did you said it was for me

yes whatSomebody's

got a kid who plays soccer with a transpo

secretary's daughter. Something. Everyone

is smiling and dialing, but his people

are upset. I get that. I still need you.

Ma'am, no one in London is answering.

Trovidge met everything he had last

night. He doesn't know how this is going

to play. Maybe

he's hiding. Maybe.

You need to let them know this is a peace

offering. Ma'am, I am

sorry. I don't know how to get that

information communicated. Have Peter do

it. Intel channels do not go dark. Tell

the White House the meeting is stalled,

but we're going to make it happen.

Is it set?Almost.

Diplomatic channels are down. Chief of

Station's going to get into it. You're

calling in the CIA?Nobody else can get a

call answered.

You understand the position I've put

myself in here, right?Of course I do. If

Nicole finds out, then I get into you

first... He won't. The CIA can keep a

secret. They're good at

it. How do they go?I'm going

to take care of it. Give me like

20-30 minutes. I can't promise a meeting,

but I'll make sure the message gets to

him. You can reach him?Through my people,

yeah. We've been trying to get through.

all day. I can't believe anyone's still

taking your calls. Intel channels don't

go down. Do you have anyone you hate so

much you don't speak anymore?I guess.

If you saw Al-Qaeda behind them, would

you say something?You'll

know when I know. Are we

going to come through this okay?Who's we?

The country. The world forgives us when

they need us, and that doesn't take long.

I

don't know.

Rayburn ran as the guy who could show the

world America wasn't broken. I believed

him. I worked for him.

I didn't sleep for two years for that

guy. I didn't go home when my dad

got sick.

Turns out I care more about Rayburn's

agenda than Rayburn did.

How are you not... curious?

Stuart, I am a young, tiny

Asian-American woman at the top of one of

the most baldly paternalistic arms of the

U.S. government. I am furious all the

time. If I could go after terrorists

and human traffickers with an

organization that didn't have an 80-year

legacy of racism and human rights

violations, I would. We should be

getting this for the recruitment video.

There is not another better CIA or

America. The ones we have are ****** **.

We made compromises. Some days we feel

okay about that. Some days we have chin.

You've reached my mobile, please leave a

message. It's

me, Ambassador Weiler of the United

States. So I know it's a

little complicated right now, things got

heated. The press conference was a

surprise to me. Not

entirely sure it was a surprise to you,

which was also a surprise to me, but

whatever. I thought we were on the same

page. Obviously we were not. If you

signed off on Crow Bridge firebombing the

Atlantic Charter on live television, this

would be a really good time for the two

of us to have a conversation. Call me.

You want Kate to make this statement?

Yeah. This is an apology. If you see the

word sorry, you're reading an early

draft. It makes the president look like a

coward, just hiding something. Am I about

to hear another rousing argument for

doing nothing at all?Yeah. Well, you

tried that. Germany doesn't like it,

neither do the markets. No, according to

this is just a dip. It's been 16 hours.

We have to say something. It's

painful. It's sad. We feel the sad.

Grace needs to hear every argument for

every option, even the ones you don't

like. Not the ones that I know will fail.

It hasn't failed. A mob has your wife

trapped in her house. Is it going well?

I'll talk to Grace.

How?He won't.

Fuse?Not yet. White House just wants

backup in case we can't get the meeting.

Backup?I'd make a statement to the public

to diffuse things. The British public?To

the world. DC is slipping out after the

German Foreign Minister's statement and

the market plunge, which I see we are

calling a dip.

Nicole will find this wildly insulting.

Why?Nothing in this

statement is going to make him take the

meeting. Grace needs to

end this now. It's not hard. Just call

him head of government to head of

government and apologize. That makes her

look weak and guilty. That will make him

feel respected. Sadly, we can't direct

foreign policy based on what makes the

British Prime Minister feel good.

There is a time bomb in the ocean. Do you

direct foreign policy around that?

I need to look at this because Billy told

me to. You don't need to worry about it

because Idra is getting that meeting.

Hi. You don't have to make the statement.

What?The apology. It's not really an

apology to threaten this, really the

native. You need to say no. Not his

ambassador, a second lady. Play the card.

I'm not using you as a note to get out of

gym. You march out there and make

yourself the face of this, your career's

over. It signals respect. I don't

want to bully him. Nicole Crowbridge

loves a bully. It'll work. It's what I

did to Dennison in Annagansett. He was

out of line. He wanted a blank check. He

wanted us to take them seriously and

treat them like a real player and I shut

him down. You have to. You're doing your

job. I didn't have to. It was convenient.

If I hadn't, he might still be taking my

******* calls. Where are you getting this

crap?British

sources close to Trowbridge think he'll

respond to a gesture of respect.

I thought no one in love was talking to

us. Calum

thinks our best bet is to have Grace

call and apologize.

Are you with them right now?He's not in

the room listening. It's a blessed for

national security. He came to talk about

the sub. He got stuck here because of the

protesters we are working. Fine.

Kate, I made no comment. I'm just asking

you to protect the President. Say no.

I'm gonna do what they tell me. It's a

White House call. Where the **** do you

think I am?Eater's on

the other line. I gotta go.

Hey, what'd you find out?

Trowbridge won't meet with us.

And he's definitely not hiding from

anyone else. He's

keeping a schedule?He added two

last-minute bilats. AI regulation with

Brussels, robotics with Beijing. The

robotics guy is Zhou Weidong. I know

that name. Me too, I think. Why do

we know a Chinese robotics guy?If he's

something out of mess him.

PLA Navy. Right. Unix Spirit

Conference.

Trowbridge isn't. No. He's not

going to China for help with a Russian

submarine. No. It's a slur tactic.

Yeah. Yeah.

For show. But it's not showing you.

It's not a **** you if we don't know

about it. It's an... an

agenda.

He's not reaching out to China.

He wouldn't.

He's reaching out to China.

President of the United States does not

grovel. It's not groveling. It's a

private apology, one-to-one, world leader

to world leader. Do you know where the

Prime Minister is at this moment?I don't.

On Britain's Declaration of Independence

from the United States. He's obsessed.

He's quoting Kissinger. Alliances are not

suicide pacts. You want her to

prostrate herself to this man to do him a

favor?Not publicly. You think he'll keep

that private?Seed the ground if she can't

make direct contact. Send gifts with no

notes. Mollify him before he talks to

China. It's a bluff. If you wanted to

make us jealous, don't you think he'd

want us to know?If they kill this

relationship, we lose an ally. They lose

the lifeline. Trowbridge is erratic but

he's a survivor. He will not do it. He

stabbed his most powerful friend in the

face last night?He might. We are talking

about an increasingly small dot on a

global map. They threaten to hurl

themselves into the belly of a rising

autocracy and you think we should bribe

them not to?

What did she say?I made

it out. I told her the president needs

to call Trowbridge with her tail between

her legs and apologize to him so he can

let us do him a favor.

It's a hard sell. You have to convince

her. She doesn't believe the threat is

real.

If Billy won't hear it from you...

Will how?

You want me to call my husband?The vice

president. The vice president doesn't

want to talk to me. He's mad my boyfriend

came over. How does he know that?I

told him.

Right.

I need you to call him. That's a bad

idea. The geopolitical landscape of the

next half century cannot shift because

your husband is jealous. I'm not avoiding

him. I know how he operates. So you're

not going to try?I got this in front of

the Chief of Staff. The information is in

her ear. I've done everything I can.

Except to call Hal.

Someone says that to me pretty much every

day now. Of all the people in the world

I expected to hear it from,

you were dead last.

What do you know about the Super Lizzie?

Russia's doomsday weapons?They're

propaganda. Right. The summit

ICBN can supposedly approach the U.S. via

the South Pole. The Borovestnik cruise

missile has a limited range. The

Poseidon Papillo can plunge the British

Ars into the sea. Nuclear boogeyman. We

have no idea how much is true, because

Russia doesn't reside with enemies ally

to themselves. Like

Poseidon.

Your Navy estimates deployable versions

are years away. They're wrong.

It's deployable. In the sense that it's

been deployed.

The president needs to call Nickel and

apologize so he will listen when she

explains that we cannot allow China to

reach the south.

It's carrying the Poseidon. I need

the vice president on such your line

immediately.

*************. Jesus. What's the

source?Human. Callum Ellis's car.

Military intel from highly placed assets

in the Kremlin. Put this technology at

five years out. Did any of them know they

lost a submarine in the North Atlantic

recently?*************!

How old has he known this?Callum or the

source?Callum. Why us?

If it's real, why wouldn't he take it to

his own PM?Trowbridge is willing to

invite China into his territorial waters

and play with a Russian sub. What do you

call him?It's a salted bomb designed to

maximize radioactive fallout. The

president has to call him. Apologize,

grown, whatever it takes. I know what I

said, we have to eat it. China can't get

near that thing. You disagree?President's

gonna have to go through this with the

fact that before she calls. Yeah, I'll

talk to him. I'm gonna brief her. He'll

hear we have to go. Couple hours. Hal.

Yeah.

Thank you. Forgetting Billy.

You're

going to get the president on board.

Principal to principal apology, Paul.

Thank you. I know that was...

Thank you. Bill, run it by state, POD,

couple hours. Dear Dee. Stray

nukes, we looped them in. Department of

Defense doesn't scream, apology. They're

not the message. They're a contingency

plan. You walk into peace talks with a

gun in your pocket, it's not a backup.

It's a slow ambush with better manners.

You think this is an ambush?You called

me. I asked for a two-person chat at

Fenner Rescue Mission, but the Hentagon

is drawing up battle plans for a war with

Great Britain. You have a super nuke on

your beach. We're trying to help. Rayburn

thought he was helping when he subverted

a free election to keep a parking space

in the North Atlantic. To protect you and

Europe from Russia's nuclear arsenal.

How come the only way to save us is for

members of my country to die and members

of your country to say you're welcome?

Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, God

knows. The carrier is

not Afghanistan. Americans blowing ****

up and calling it a democracy. Sounds

like Afghanistan. We don't invade

authoritarian countries to make them

democratic. We invade violent countries

to make them peaceful. And we failed. I

know who we failed and how we failed, and

I don't need you to school me on that. I

was there. So was I. That

was a 19-year-old ******** with an SA-80.

I didn't know that. I killed people

because your country asked me to, and

then you walked away.

We were there 20 years. What were we

supposed to do?Stay forever?No. Airlift

out an entire population?What?No. Don't

admire the problem. Solve it. Tell me,

what were we supposed to do?You asked

people for help, and then you promised

you would get them out. You were supposed

to get them out.

Things went wrong. Thank you for shining

light on that. It wasn't a mistake, it

was policy. It's what you do. You're a

military-industrial complex papered over

by constitution. How come when **** hits

the fan, we're still who people call?

You're not. The

source called me.

When did he tell you?About the sun?About

Poseidon. A

couple of months ago.

And you never thought anyone else needed

to know. Like you?Not me. Like

ten levels above me. Or the Royal Navy.

The Navy feeds to nickel. You don't want

to hand in this. Just yours.

If you announce a nuclear weapon is

missing, people find it.

Russia already knows it's missing, so

they find it. They try to move it.

They'll think a blow. It was a calculated

risk. Calculated

by you. I was the one

in a position to make the call, so yes,

I made it.

Oh my God. What?

I can't believe I did this again.

You did what, again?

Again. What?

****** a guy who thinks he's so

singularly valuable, he's the one

exception to rules-based order. Oh, so

I'm Hal?He gets a hot tip. He makes

a big plan, then he tries to weaponize me

when it all starts to fall apart, and

can't believe I have the gall to question

his judgment. I'm not Hal Weil. You

tripped over a problem and decided to

handle it unilaterally, and now China

might get Poseidon. If they don't?

It will be because you came to me and I

called the people you trash and looked

down on and begged them to help me clean

up your ****.

What's up?I've got the latest draft of

the case statement. We're not doing that.

I'm gonna cancel something else. Okay.

Why'd you pick up?I don't know. I thought

it was you, so I answered. I'll hang up.

Okay. Bye.

Do I need a lawyer?

No.

You don't need a lawyer.

There's going to be an inquiry. There's

going to be subpoenas. I didn't know

anything. Seven living people knew that

Grace Penn was getting tossed. I'm one of

them. It's not gonna come up. If it does,

they'll ask why Rayburn wanted her out.

They're gonna want to know if the Chief

of Staff told me to groom a replacement

for a VP.

It's not gonna happen. You told me that a

story was gonna break about her husband

in an NIH grant. But it's not. It

was never gonna break. 'Cause it didn't

happen. Was she gonna blow the

whistle?So you just need too much?

So you should take a setback.

If I go under oath, are you asking me to

perjure myself?

You should get a lawyer.

I shouldn't have said that. The way I

said that...

I have been fighting with the same

person for 15 years. That

is not the way you fight with a new

person.

I get that, and I'm sorry.

If we were married for 15 years?

That would not be okay.

President's with DOD now. We should have

our decision in a few minutes.

If we're gonna keep working together,You

know, I need to be clear on something. I

can't believe I have to say this isn't

the time for a heart-to-heart. Really?

My issue with the statement was

not about Kate.

When you have a spouse in this line of

work, there's an impulse to protect them.

Yeah, you need to stop saying that.

It's not a concern for me. I don't have a

spouse.

Kate is my second lady. She's not

my wife.

Um... May I clean this?

Thanks.

I, um... not going to be

PNG'd, which

I think is the correct decision.

And the United

States is not going to apologize,

which is a strategic decision.

I am...

I am very sorry for the carrier.

You have nothing to do with what

happened. No. But

you deserve an apology. And there isn't

one coming from anyone else.

Are they gone?Either that or we're just

tired, protesting silently.

You're President Cole Nicholl and

propose a bilateral summit

in the UK to discuss moving forward on

an even keel. It's

a profound consideratory gesture, reads

as an apology. He's accepted.

Should be here in 10 hours.

You know this. Billy called.

But you said you wanted some space, so I

thought I'd give you some.

Are you done with me?

I don't know.

I'm concerned I made the same choice I

made before. I'm not him. I know.

I'm afraid I'm going to be like I was

when I was with him.

I assumed that I treated him

the way I did when we were married

because he was Hal.

because he deserved it.

But it is possible

that it was because of me

that I am not

capable of

treating people

the way they should be treated.

I brought some baggage into this.

I ****** **.

But I would like another chance.

I may need three or four chances,

but if you were up for it,

I would like to try.
