Original subtitles

Previously on The Oval.

You should have been the president.

That was his plan. Yeah, he was going to put me in and move him out.

It's top secret, but we really got to figure out how to get in here. Hey, I

don't think he's going to get into that computer.

Think Sam can help me out?

Yeah, just stay away from her.

I'm going to take the knife out and show you how to dismember her.

Let your mother know. We start with the legs.

I don't know what I'm going to do when I'm going to die alone.

Victoria, shut up.

You guys both relax. Are you okay?

No, just let him die.

No, just breathe. Both of you breathe and shut your mouths.

Dad, help me. Dad, we can't help you.

Who are you? What are you doing?

He doesn't give a shit about you.

No, I do care about you. Look how much you're bleeding right now. Both of you

have got to relax.

Try to put pressure on the wounds.

Dad, I don't think I'm going to make it. Just look at me. You're going to be

fine, okay? You're going to be fine.

Just...

He can't help you.

Nothing can help you but death.

Victoria, shut up and relax. You're bleeding so much now. You're horrible.

I'm horrible?

Yeah.

Look at what you did to me.

Help!

Do you see me?

What?

Mommy said you shut up. You feeling warm?

No. That's the devil coming for you.

The devil doesn't have to come for me, Mom.

It's already born to him.

You didn't pray about that.

I hate you.

Hold on, Jason.

Keep beating out.

No.

Please. like your mother.

Don't touch me.

Too weak to touch you.

I hate you.

It's like we're both going to hell together.

You've compelled her.

I'll wait.

Help us!

Help! How do they not come in?

Do not come in. They don't care.

They will just hang on. You guys hang on.

Yes, the cell is here for you.

Yes, send her in. Yes, sir. Thank you.

Thank you.

Hello, sir.

Hi. You called for tea?

Here you go.

Yes, thank you.

And thank you for everything else.

Oh, sure. I mean, you did all the hard work.

What do you mean?

Sleeping with her.

Ah, yes, well... Because she's a troll.

That she is.

I'm just so glad that they are out of here. They are gone.

Yeah, yeah.

Simone's not too happy about it.

Well, she'll come around.

Yeah.

I don't know if I want her to be happy about it.

What do you mean?

She slept with Bobby.

Do you know that for a fact?

I can sense it.

Senses are not facts, Eli.

Then I'll get facts.

Well, until you do, you need to let that go.

Do I?

Yes. You have way more important things to be thinking about.

Yeah, you're right.

Now, how do things go at concert?

She wants to meet them.

I know she would.

Why? Because you have to talk to both parties.

Yeah, that's what she said.

He'll go with that.

You trust her?

I do.

She's solid.

You're sure about that?

She's really good at what she does.

Okay, well, still having her vetted.

Well, good luck with that, sir.

What does that mean?

She's been cleared and vetted by four presidents.

She has top clearance.

Yeah, I know, I know, I just...

I just need to be sure.

Eli, I know this is a hard job.

But you're going to have to learn to trust some people.

You know, you sound a lot like Simone.

Well, she's right.

I will try.

Good. You should do that.

So, um, how are you and Sam?

Oh, no. We're not talking about that.

Just asking.

And you shouldn't.

Wait a minute. So it's okay for you to talk to me about Simone, but not okay

me to talk to you about Sam?

Okay. You want to know how we are? We are not. That's how we are.

You're not?

No.

So it's over?

Yes. It's over as can be.

Sorry about that.

I'm completely fine.

That is what it is at this point.

Sir. Yes.

Send him in.

Yes, send him in.

Yes, sir.

Hello, sir.

Hello.

Well, if that's everything you need, sir, I'm going to get going.

Hold on just a second.

Max? Yes, sir.

Will you tell Alan that I'm good for the day and that he can go home?

Yes, sir.

Thank you.

Priscilla. Yes, sir.

I think I'll stay in the residence tonight.

And I want my wife to stay in there, too.

Okay. I will have housekeeping prepare the Lincoln bedroom.

Actually, I want to stay in the main bedroom.

Well, yes, sir.

Can we get a new mattress in there? Yes, we can.

Might as well get used to it, right?

Yes. You should, sir.

Thank you very much, Priscilla. Absolutely.

My pleasure.

You want to meet with me?

Yes, about Constance, sir.

Priscilla swears by her.

I do too, sir.

Okay, good.

I think it's a good idea.

That she has both sides of the story.

Yes, sir.

Okay, fine.

Are you settling in well?

Yes.

So I guess you will be staying at the residence.

Yes, I will.

Well, sir.

I know. Max already told me.

I need to be on high alert.

They are very cunning, sir.

They're locked in the bunker.

We can't keep them there forever.

I know.

The press will begin to ask questions, sir.

I know.

It will become kidnapping.

Kidnapping?

You have to give them their rights at some point, sir.

I know, I know.

I am an attorney.

Of course you are.

Well, is there anything else you need?

No, sir. I just wanted to give you my okay about Constance.

And so you have.

Yes, sir. Thank you.

And I'm sorry about you and Priscilla.

It's fine, sir.

I mean, you did sleep with Victoria.

Sir?

Nothing. I'm just sorry about you and Priscilla.

Thank you, sir.

Thank you. That'll be all.

Sir?

Sam.

Oh. I thought you were Hunter.

I'm sorry, ma 'am.

You can turn around.

I'm dressed.

I work hard on this body.

I used to be a runner in high school.

See how strong?

Look at you getting hard.

Neil.

Tell me what the hell is going on. Honey, honey. Don't you give me that

shit, Sam. I'm looking at you.

Listen to me.

Listen to me. Was she in there?

She's in that room as well. Everything I own, you're going to have to see.

Where's your wife?

She left for the day.

Was anything wrong?

It was her scheduled time off.

You lie well.

This husband of yours is so formal.

Not sitting down, he's not.

Girl.

Is this possible?

No, ma 'am.

My heart is only for my wife.

I don't want your heart, honey.

She can have it.

What happened in there?

That was strange.

What did he say?

You mentioned me sleeping with the first lady.

What?

Yeah.

That turns off.

I don't know.

What do you think you meant by that?

I don't know what you meant.

Why did you say it? Why did you mention it?

It has to be because of Priscilla.

I'm not going to say that, but it has to be.

Alonzo? Sir.

Sir. What is it, Alonzo? The chief of staff would like to see you.

The chief of staff?

Oh, Alan is the interim chief of staff.

What? Yeah.

Alan's in office now.

What the hell? He's a kid.

He is young.

He must be desperate.

Where is Alan?

In Donald's office, sir.

Oh, Donald's.

This should be good.

Yeah, it should.

Especially because he is feeling himself.

Is he?

Oh, yeah. He is.

Well, uh, have fun with the new chief of staff, Sam.

Ah, there I go. Thanks.

What's Alan doing?

Oh, he's got his big boy pants full.

We'll see.

He does know this is temporary, right?

Yeah, he does. And it's not a place to be arrogant in?

Told him that.

All right.

Yeah. Well, let's see how it goes.

We'll see.

I'm about to head home.

Home?

Yeah.

Home as in where you live?

Please.

I'm just asking.

I don't know.

Well, you're more than welcome to stay with me, Richard.

Thank you. Yeah.

I'm sure Sam already offered you that, huh?

Yes, he has.

Well, you may have to just play referee and get in between us.

Look, I do not need to play referee.

I understand.

I have my own issues. Yes, you do.

So what did they decide?

Well, he's going to stay at the residence and he wants me to go talk to

wife.

Oh, really?

Mm -hmm.

You think that's why?

I think a girl got to do what a girl got to do.

Oh, so she's a friend of yours now?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Well, good luck with that.

I am going to get out of here.

Yeah, fine, man.

Okay.

Or we can just leave out together.

Well, first I want to make sure they get the mattress and everything taken care

of up there.

So you're going to stay up there?

Yeah.

So I'm going to get that taken care of. I'm going to go by and check on Simone.

Yeah, I'm wrapping up for the night.

Okay.

I'll see you later. All right. I'll see you later. All right.

Come in.

Bam.

Alonzo said you wanted to see me?

That's right.

What can I do for you?

I need you to help me get into Donald's computer here.

Hmm.

Fine.

He's Donald now.

You've changed quickly.

He's a criminal, Sam.

That he is.

And this is my job now, so it didn't take you long to adjust.

No.

No, it didn't.

I see.

So what do you say? Can you help me out here?

We can get the FBI on it.

Great. Thank you.

Go do.

This computer does not leave this office.

Okay.

But, uh, may I ask why not?

Look, whatever's on this computer is top secret.

All right? It needs to stay in this office. So, if there's an FBI agent

on it, he does it here. Do you understand me?

I see.

What, Sam?

I'm just, uh, just a little impressed.

Don't be.

All right? I was born for this job.

I see.

So keep me posted. You going somewhere?

Yeah. I got a meeting.

Oh. Does the president know you have a meeting?

Yeah. Sam, he knows. I was just with him.

Okay. Good.

Hey, and no need to check behind me.

Like I said, Sam, I was born for this job.

I see.

I'll see you later.

Talk to you later.

Oh.

Oh.

Thank y 'all for cleaning up.

You're welcome.

Okay, I'll be right back.

Okay.

Sharon. I know.

We have to get that money back to Greens.

Oh, Dale.

Just sit in the car like that.

I know.

I don't like this.

Yeah, I don't either. What do you want me to do?

Go tell her that we're going to have to do all this stuff later.

I can't do that. This is her son.

I know, but sorry.

I can't deal with all that right now. We need to focus on one thing at a time.

Yeah, and right now, the money is important.

I know, Dale.

Just saying.

Shit.

I've been in so much trauma since I moved here.

Dale, please don't start.

I'll start what?

I mean, you may be the very reason why we're in all of this drama.

I'm the reason we're in this drama?

Yeah. I mean, look at what happens every time you come around.

Oh, oh, so I did this to Barry.

Oh.

Don't do that.

Okay?

I'm sorry.

That was cruel.

Yeah, I'm sorry. I'm just a...

A little bit defensive.

Yeah, I can tell.

Sorry.

Don't let her hear you say that.

This is killing both her and me.

I know.

But for what it's worth, you're doing really well.

Yeah, I don't feel like it.

You are.

Thanks.

Men. Men.

Well, hi.

Hi.

Thanks for seeing me.

Well, I needed to talk to you.

Yes, I know.

Don't give me that look. You know why.

Yes, I do.

This is a lot for me.

I know it is.

And I'm just suffering with it all.

Yes.

Yes, I know.

Well, Lily told you to distract yourself. And that's exactly what I'm

By just being in here?

Mm -hmm.

And getting drunk.

Yes, Priscilla.

That's only going to last for so long, Simone.

I know that.

You know why else I'm here?

Why is that?

Eli asked me to come.

Eli asked you

to come and talk to me.

Yes.

Then talk.

Because the one thing I can't get out of my head is him in bed with that whore.

So you tell me how I'm going to do that. Yeah, let's talk about that.

Come on.

Well, I can't tell you anything that's going to do that.

Exactly. Because I would need the same trick for myself.

You see?

What are you doing here, Victoria?

What would it look like if...

We divorced our spouses and got together.

When are you going to take care of me?

I've decided that your husband and I would make better partners than me and

asshole I'm married to. What exactly are you saying? I'm saying that you will be

away with the children and you will suffer a terribly tragic accident. So I

be the grieving first lady who will stand at your husband's side.

Hell, by the time we spend this, people will be begging for us to get married.

Well, that's not it. Then what does he want?

He wants you to go to the White House.

I'll be there tomorrow.

No, he wants you to stay in the residence.

Why in the hell would I do that?

Because you've earned it.

No.

No, I'm not doing that.

It is a beautiful, historical place.

And you've never stayed in the residence.

You should really go.

Well, I don't think it's a good idea.

Okay?

Now, don't you let that bitch keep you from what's yours.

Not about her.

Okay? I don't even know what I would say to him.

I know. I get that.

I can't even look at him right now.

Then stay in a different room.

No, Priscilla, I don't want to do that.

Well, there is one more reason.

See? See? Here we go. Go ahead.

Just listen.

Okay. Okay, fine.

Security.

You are the first lady now.

And with you here, it splits up our best men.

So I really need you to go for safety, especially with everything that's going

on right now.

And you're sure about this?

Yes, I am. And this is not just some excuse to get me to go over there.

It's the best place for you to be.

So I'm in danger over here?

You think I'm in danger?

I don't know.

Honestly, I don't know what these crazy -ass people have planned in the bunker.

What can they honestly do from all the way down there? I don't know, but I

trust them. Do you?

I hear you.

So?

Let's get you there.

Fine.

Okay, good.

Now, get a bag and call your security detail.

Okay. And I can wait with you.

No, Priscilla, I don't need you to do that.

Are you sure?

Mm -hmm.

Haven't you had a long day?

Yeah.

Okay, so then you can go home.

I got it.

Okay.

Well, you know, why don't you go pack, and I'll call the detail for you.

I can do it myself.

Okay.

Mm -hmm.

This really is the best thing for you, Simone.

Yes, but I'm not going to be anywhere near him, okay?

Okay. There are tons of room for that place.

Well, good.

You can easily disappear.

Okay.

I'm glad you're doing this.

Don't start.

All right.

Well, I will see you there tomorrow morning. Tomorrow morning.

Okay. Cheers.

You have a good night.

You too.

This is Bobby.

Hi.

Yes, ma 'am.

I need you to arrange a motorcade for me.

We're going somewhere?

To the White House.

I'll get it arranged for you.

Thank you.

Yes, ma 'am.

Max? Yeah?

What the hell's going on over there?

What do you mean?

Why did she just call me?

Who?

Simone.

I don't know. She just asked me to get her a motorcade ready.

Who's going somewhere this late?

To the White House.

So you want to let me know what's going on over there?

I mean, nothing.

Then why did she go back there?

Look, I don't know why your lover does the things that she does, okay?

But where is he?

He's in the Oval. He's headed up to the residence, Tim.

I see.

She must be going to be with him.

I guess so, sure.

I see.

Oh, wait a minute.

What?

You're not jealous, are you?

Oh, aren't you the guy who asked me to cut?

All right, take it easy. I was just asking.

I just want to know what's going on over there. That's it.

Nothing that I'm aware of. I can tell you again if that'll make you feel

Okay.

All right.

Well, I guess you better get her here, then.

I'm getting up now.

All right. Do that. See you soon, you big lover boy.

Yeah, okay.

What are you doing here?

Uh, Mr. Richard.

What's happening?

Well, I was... Is Nancy here?

Yes, she is.

Shit.

Is there anything I can do for you?

Oh, I just needed to pick some things up for work.

Okay, I'll go get them for you. Yeah, well, whatever's left of them.

Okay, well, I mean, I can go check.

Sorry about that.

Yeah, okay.

Do you mind if I go check to see if she left anything upstairs?

I can go check for you.

Okay.

There's nothing left.

Shit.

So you don't need to come back here.

Nancy, I had some personal things that I needed for work.

I know.

And I burned all that shit up.

Nancy. That's where Joe signed it.

Yeah, you're right.

She's not worth it.

Your daddy thought I was worth it.

Please don't say that.

Are you trying to get him to hurt you?

Shut up, boy.

Sorry.

Sarah? Yes?

Just let me know when you're leaving.

We won't be leaving anytime soon.

Woman? Okay, look. We were on our way to the funeral home for Barry's funeral

arrangement.

What funeral home?

Where Barry is.

I had her moved.

What?

Moved where?

I'm not talking to you, you simple bitch.

Call me a bitch again.

I'll let you know where the funeral home is. I said call me a bitch again. If

you want to come, then you are welcome.

I will.

Yes, ma 'am.

What, so you're just not going to let me know where my son is being buried? I'll

let Sharon know.

And she'll let me know.

Then I might not let Sharon know. Okay. What, so you're just going to take him

and bury him by yourself?

What do you care? You spent up all the damn money.

You are a son of a bitch. Yeah, so was my son.

So you get the hell out of here, Richard.

Glad. Now.

No, go ahead.

Go ahead and tear some more of my shit that you can't afford. Yeah, and just

wait till we get to court. Oh, I'm looking forward to it.

Okay, all right, Mr. Richards, let's go. Wait, hurry up!

You know, you need to learn a thing.

What?

You know, being locked up didn't teach you a damn thing.

Locked up for something you did.

I don't know what the hell you're talking about.

You did it, and Dale saw it.

He is more of a man than you will ever be!

You think you can treat me like shit and cause me all this pain? You think I'm

not going to get some comfort, huh?

Son, let me talk to you.

Come back to my house. I can't. I can't.

I can't.

You want me to put this knife into your chest?

I think he means it.

If I have to go to jail, I will.

Richie, listen to me. What?

Did Dale see anything?

Sam, he was standing right there.

I know people.

And we both know people.

Richard, this can all go away.

Sam, you are putting a lot on the line.

And if you can handle it, I can make it happen.

All right.

So you're saying you want me to do that?

Yeah.

If I do this, you need to be sure Nancy won't talk.

She won't.

I'll handle that deal, Kate. You just be sure.

Yeah.

I didn't really see anything.

You ain't shit.

I think I should go now.

No, no, no.

You ain't going nowhere in the car. I bought... What?

Yeah, you heard me.

She bought you that car?

Um... Yeah.

With what money?

Uh... Give me the keys.

He ain't giving you shit.

Give me the keys, Dale.

Can I get my groceries out first?

What the hell? Did I buy those, too? No, no, no. Those are mine.

Just give me the damn keys.

You ain't getting a damn thing.

Really, woman? You heard me.

Okay. Okay, fine.

So get the hell out.

You're putting him a card with my damn money?

You should see what I bought you today.

You might want to buy him a casket with what you have left over.

You were never worth my love or my time.

Yeah, okay.

I know what you did.

He knows what you did, and so does God. And you will reap what you sow.

Yeah. And God knows what you did with my father, doesn't he?

Get the hell out of here. Yeah, but you can't handle that, can you? Get the hell

out of here, Richard. Sir Richard, please.

You don't have to beg his black ass.

And I wish you would have given him them damn keys.

What do I do now?

Let's just go.

Wait. I'm sorry. Where do you think you're going?

We have to run an errand.

I have errands to run, too.

Well, he said he was taking care of the funeral stuff, so... Well, let me go.

Miss Nancy.

What? I have things to do, too.

Okay, fine.

Let me go get changed.

It's Waters?

Yeah, under him.

Hi.

You're back so soon.

I was told you were ready for me to go down there.

Yes.

I can talk to them?

Yes, you can.

Great.

But... But what?

I need to make sure that you leave your phone here with us.

I don't need to take anything down with me.

Okay, great.

Why is that so important to you?

Well, I need to make sure that they don't have any outside communication.

You know what that sounds like?

It's a matter of national security.

Your security?

Sure.

Do you really think they'll try to harm you?

Sam?

I know, sir.

You don't trust Sam. I don't trust any of you.

Why is that?

Because you're men.

Huh. So you trust women?

I trust them more than the likes of you two.

Wow.

Don't worry. I'm a very smart woman.

Okay.

Shall we?

Wait, you can't go.

Why is that?

Eli, because I need to talk to them alone. I don't need you to be there.

Whoa, that's a deal breaker.

Look, I need to speak to them alone.

Ms. Waters.

Eli, look, that's the deal or no deal at all?

Sam?

I will take it down, sir.

Okay, he can't go either.

Why not? Because he has history.

We all have history with them.

I'll take the cute blonde guy at the door who was trying to vet me.

Max?

Yeah, I'll take him.

Huh.

Sam, thoughts?

It's good, sir.

Well, okay.

Great.

But I want you two to report back to me directly when you're finished.

As quickly as I'm out of there.

Okay. Thank you.

Lead the way.

Yes, ma 'am.

Thank you.

Swatters.

It's taking her so long.

I don't know.

I don't want to go to Queens after dark.

Yeah, I don't want to be doing that either.

Can you go check on her?

No. Why not?

Do you see what kind of mood she's in?

So? Just go.

Yeah, all right. Go on, go on.

Hey, you still at my apartment?

No.

And that girl is gone too?

Yes.

And the money?

Yes, it is.

You sure?

Yes, I'm sure, Alan.

Okay. Be gone when I get back.

What? I don't want you back with any of that drama.

Are you saying you want me to come back?

No. I'm saying I don't want you to come back.

Okay.

Okay? I'm serious.

Is that it?

Are you giving me an attitude?

I'm not.

But I've been really nice to you, Dale.

I know you have.

So stop.

Why did you call me?

To just make sure you were out of my apartment.

Okay, so now you know. Can I go?

Wow.

Right. Wow.

Dale, you just remember you're going to need me again one day, okay?

I know I will.

Bye. Bye.

This family stopped.

You think they stopped torturing him?

I'm not sure.

This means he gave them what they wanted.

Yeah.

There we go.

Yeah.

You know what all this means.

Yeah, he filled it out. Blamed it all on us.

Yeah.

Bitch.

To be honest with you, I would have given him up.

Yeah, me too.

Wait, you've given me a cop?

Oh, hell no, but I would have sold all them out for sure.

That's the right answer. It's the honest answer.

I am going crazy in this damn place.

Hey.

Everything is going to be fine.

No, no, no, it's not. I'm hungry. They haven't brought us any food.

Is that blood?

Wait.

Shit.

Yeah, it is.

Where's it coming from?

I don't know what it's coming from. It's coming from underneath the wall.

Damn, that's a lot of blood.

Yeah, it is.

What do you think it is?

You think they killed him?

Shit. I mean, he did try to hang him.

Donald, if they killed the President of the United States, all hell is going to

break loose in this country.

No.

No, not if they're changing the narrative. It won't.

So you do know, Donald.

Hey. Yeah.

What are they doing?

Right now, they're putting together a statement and evidence to give to the

press.

Son of a bitches are going to go live during primetime.

You think so?

Yeah, I know so.

Well, the difference is they don't have you to run.

No.

No, they don't, but they are calling in a crisis person.

Who? I don't know, but definitely one of the best.

Shit.

Not good.

No.

Damn, watch out.

With this much blood, he's definitely dead.

Yeah, it looks that way. This just keeps getting worse and worse.

Looks that way.

Just great.

You gotta get in there and check on him. I think there's still a lot. What

happened? Max, you gotta get in there!

Next on The Open. We are bleeding out. Don't let Eli do this, Max. Wake up!

Stop! Know who you're working for!

I'm in a beast now, huh?

Isn't that all women?

Is that a joke?
