writing the story?

The editor...
There's no editor...

Is the story dead?

99
00:04:12,353 --> 00:04:15,389
Well, close to it.
The reporter is dead.

100

sure there's no

101
00:04:18,158 --> 00:04:20,494
editor over there who still
tries to run the story.

102
00:04:20,961 --> 00:04:22,496
I'll get to work
on that for you.

103

anything to help.

Thank you, Donald.
This is how you can help.

106
00:04:29,370 --> 00:04:30,771
Tell me who the mole is.

107
00:04:31,305 --> 00:04:33,407
That is the question of the day.

108
00:04:34,475 --> 00:04:37,345
Well, I don't have
anything for sure, but...

109
00:04:38,512 --> 00:04:40,047
I do have my suspicions.

- Your Vice President.
- Son of a bitch.

111
00:04:45,586 --> 00:04:48,255
Or... his wife.

112
00:04:48,822 --> 00:04:52,159
- Or... both.
- Mm.

113

[Victoria] Eli will get what's
coming to him.

114
00:04:54,762 --> 00:04:57,331
I guess karma has a way
of catching up with all of us.

115
00:04:57,465 --> 00:05:01,001
- Mm...
- I'm not speaking of karma.

116
00:05:02,670 --> 00:05:04,203
- Oh, no?
- [Hunter] All right.

117
00:05:04,204 --> 00:05:05,205
Well, thank you, Donald.

118
00:05:05,305 --> 00:05:06,507
Keep your eyes and ears open, please.

119
00:05:07,307 --> 00:05:08,609
[Donald] Yes, sir.

120
00:05:10,644 --> 00:05:12,513
Send Isaac in if he's out there, please.

121
00:05:12,646 --> 00:05:13,881
[Donald] Yes, sir.

122
00:05:23,824 --> 00:05:26,393
Isaac? Yes, I did call for you.

123

Well, it's underway.

125

- Meaning?
- Meaning I have the agent.

126
00:05:33,467 --> 00:05:35,869
It's an insidious poison
manufactured in Russia.

127
00:05:36,103 --> 00:05:38,372
- [Isaac] Checks all the boxes.
- Tell us.

128
00:05:38,672 --> 00:05:41,141
Well, it'll look
like some other health issue.

129
00:05:41,575 --> 00:05:44,177
It'll likely not
be detected in an autopsy.

130
00:05:44,412 --> 00:05:45,345
It's torturous.

131
00:05:45,446 --> 00:05:47,715
He'll be screaming
in excruciating pain.

132
00:05:47,848 --> 00:05:50,050
And medical staff won't
be able to detect it

133
00:05:50,183 --> 00:05:51,385
in order to give him relief.

134
00:05:52,052 --> 00:05:54,888
If this happens
as you say it will...

135
00:05:56,890 --> 00:05:58,392
You will get that bonus
we discussed.

136
00:05:58,992 --> 00:06:01,261
- Thank you, First Lady.
- When, Agent Isaac?

137
00:06:02,362 --> 00:06:06,099
- Soon... Tomorrow.
- I love you, Agent Isaac.

138

- What now?

00:06:13,941 --> 00:06:16,810
- We have a situation brewing.
- Tell me.

141
00:06:18,412 --> 00:06:21,749
An unarmed Black teen was
murdered outside of St. Louis.

142
00:06:22,883 --> 00:06:24,752
- By a police officer?
- [Dilva] Yes.

143
00:06:25,085 --> 00:06:26,285
Unprovoked?

144
00:06:26,286 --> 00:06:28,756
It appears to be completely
unprovoked.

145
00:06:28,889 --> 00:06:29,957
Is there a video?

146
00:06:30,057 --> 00:06:31,825
There is a video
that just surfaced.

147
00:06:31,925 --> 00:06:33,427
The local police had buried it.

148
00:06:33,727 --> 00:06:36,296
Does the video support
the officer's account?

149

Absolutely not. Take a look.

159
00:07:29,016 --> 00:07:30,450
Can I be honest?

160
00:07:31,051 --> 00:07:32,352
Please?

161
00:07:36,924 --> 00:07:38,191
I'm scared.

162
00:07:46,900 --> 00:07:48,068
[Simone]
Of course you're scared.

163
00:07:48,401 --> 00:07:51,238
- We all are.
- But no, Simone.

164
00:07:51,505 --> 00:07:53,173
I'm just so mad.

165
00:07:53,807 --> 00:07:57,610
I can't afford to be scared.
And I can't afford to be weak.

166
00:07:57,611 --> 00:08:01,281
- Priscilla, you're human.
- No. That's the excuse.

167
00:08:02,249 --> 00:08:05,418
I come from a long line
of strong Black women.

168
00:08:05,886 --> 00:08:07,087
I may not have liked how they

169
00:08:07,187 --> 00:08:08,756
dealt with their cheating
husbands, but...

170
00:08:09,690 --> 00:08:11,959
in every other way,
I admire them.

171
00:08:13,627 --> 00:08:16,730
They were so strong.
They were fearless.

172
00:08:18,498 --> 00:08:21,468
I mean, my mom was
stronger than my dad at times.

173
00:08:22,135 --> 00:08:25,639
They would go through a rough
time, and my dad would let fear

174
00:08:25,739 --> 00:08:29,777
and doubt and nervousness
creep in, and she would say,

175
00:08:29,877 --> 00:08:32,780
"No, Thomas, we're gonna
get through this."

176
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:37,117
Or, "Thomas,
stop feeling sorry for yourself

177
00:08:37,484 --> 00:08:41,622
and learn how to ride these
troubled waters," she would say.

178
00:08:42,055 --> 00:08:44,992
And every time he was
thrown a curveball,

179
00:08:45,425 --> 00:08:47,794
he and my mom would figure out

180
00:08:47,795 --> 00:08:49,863
how to ride that troubled water.

181
00:08:51,398 --> 00:08:53,867
So, no, I can't let
this beat me.

182
00:08:54,968 --> 00:08:57,671
I put everything into Abrielle.

183
00:08:58,806 --> 00:09:02,643
And now she's gone.
But I gotta figure this out.

184
00:09:03,911 --> 00:09:04,945
But I can't lie.

185
00:09:05,045 --> 00:09:07,047
I just feel like
there's no hope.

186
00:09:07,147 --> 00:09:09,382
Priscilla,
look, there's always hope.

187
00:09:12,653 --> 00:09:16,156
Yes. That's it.
Tell me more of that.

188
00:09:16,289 --> 00:09:17,958
That's what I need to hear.

189
00:09:18,626 --> 00:09:21,494
You and I had the same
kind of mother,

190
00:09:21,995 --> 00:09:24,397
and she would tell me
all the time,

191
00:09:24,497 --> 00:09:27,601
"When life throws you
curveballs, you have to pivot."

192
00:09:27,701 --> 00:09:30,437
She said, "Simone,
you got to learn how to pivot."

193
00:09:31,338 --> 00:09:34,274
That's it, Simone. Thank you.

194
00:09:34,708 --> 00:09:37,144
See, Allan ran out of here.
He was all hysterical.

195
00:09:37,244 --> 00:09:38,612
He just gave up.

196
00:09:38,712 --> 00:09:40,748
But I can't deal with that kind
of negative energy right now.

197
00:09:40,848 --> 00:09:43,016
I'm not giving up on this.

198
00:09:43,116 --> 00:09:46,719
- I'm going to win this.
- Now you got me hyped up.

199
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:48,155
[chuckling]

200
00:09:48,255 --> 00:09:52,558
I admit, when I came in here,
I was feeling very defeated.

201
00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:53,861
We won't be defeated.

202
00:09:54,261 --> 00:09:57,197
We will hearken the words
of your mother.

203
00:09:58,498 --> 00:10:00,367
- We're gonna pivot.
- Pivot.

204
00:10:00,467 --> 00:10:02,736
- [laughing]
- [sighing]

205
00:10:03,036 --> 00:10:04,237
All right.

206
00:10:05,238 --> 00:10:07,440
Did Abrielle tell anybody else
about the story?

207
00:10:09,677 --> 00:10:15,148
Yes... Remember,
her editor approved the story.

208
00:10:15,248 --> 00:10:17,718
Oh, okay. There you go.

209
00:10:18,151 --> 00:10:21,655
Okay, so all we have to do is
get to the editor.

210
00:10:21,755 --> 00:10:25,258
You see, the story isn't dead.
The editor can still release it.

211
00:10:25,358 --> 00:10:27,494
Yes! Yes!

212
00:10:28,028 --> 00:10:32,065
And even more so...
Abrielle was so respected.

213
00:10:32,499 --> 00:10:34,702
The editor is going
to want vindication.

214
00:10:34,902 --> 00:10:36,503
Mm-hmm.

215
00:10:36,603 --> 00:10:39,673
And we are going to give him
or her that vindication.

216
00:10:39,773 --> 00:10:42,042
All I gotta do is
find out the name of the editor.

217
00:10:42,275 --> 00:10:44,243
Well, that's just
a simple online search.

218
00:10:44,244 --> 00:10:47,246
Yes, yes, yes, okay! Okay!

219
00:10:47,247 --> 00:10:51,351
Priscilla, look,
please be careful, okay?

220
00:10:51,451 --> 00:10:52,786
Plus, you know these
phones are tapped.

221
00:10:52,886 --> 00:10:55,621
I'm gonna have to assume
that all these walls have eyes.

222
00:10:55,622 --> 00:10:57,758
No, no, I know, and that's why
I'm gonna go home.

223
00:10:57,858 --> 00:10:59,259
I'm gonna make my calls
and mount

224
00:10:59,392 --> 00:11:01,428
my defense on my own turf.

225
00:11:01,561 --> 00:11:03,430
I'm still afraid for you
to go home.

226
00:11:03,530 --> 00:11:05,766
No, no, no, I'll be safe in my
own home, I promise you.

227
00:11:06,199 --> 00:11:08,401
- I'll be good there.
- All right.

228
00:11:09,136 --> 00:11:11,204
Okay, well, I'm gonna get
back downstairs.

229
00:11:11,304 --> 00:11:14,273
- [Priscilla] Okay.
- We're going to figure this out.

230
00:11:14,274 --> 00:11:15,308
- Yeah.
- We're gonna ride

231
00:11:15,442 --> 00:11:16,276
these troubled waters.

232
00:11:16,409 --> 00:11:17,477
We're gonna pivot.

233
00:11:18,245 --> 00:11:21,313
- We're gonna pivot.
- [laughs] Okay.

234
00:11:21,314 --> 00:11:23,350
- Be careful, okay?
- All right.

235
00:11:23,450 --> 00:11:24,718
Thank you.

236
00:11:29,222 --> 00:11:33,493
Okay... Okay.

237
00:11:37,464 --> 00:11:39,466
Look at this cheap-ass shit.

238
00:11:41,568 --> 00:11:44,537
Thought you were a chef.
No taste.

239
00:11:57,084 --> 00:11:59,319
[line trilling]

240
00:12:00,053 --> 00:12:02,322
[phone ringing]

241
00:12:03,991 --> 00:12:07,260
- Who could this be? Excuse me.
- [phone ringing]

242
00:12:10,463 --> 00:12:12,766
- Hello.
- Mother.

243
00:12:13,767 --> 00:12:15,002
Jason.

244
00:12:16,303 --> 00:12:20,307
[Jason] <i>I'm your only
living child,--. Who else?</i>

245
00:12:22,009 --> 00:12:25,245
- What a surprise.
- Put him on speaker phone.

246
00:12:29,682 --> 00:12:32,052
Well, where are you, darling?

247
00:12:32,619 --> 00:12:33,887
[Jason]
<i>Wouldn't you like to know?</i>

248
00:12:33,987 --> 00:12:35,288
[whispering] Keep him talking.

249
00:12:36,623 --> 00:12:37,690
I would.

250
00:12:37,791 --> 00:12:39,026
You're never going
to get a chance

251
00:12:39,159 --> 00:12:41,361
to lay a finger on me
ever again, Victoria.

252
00:12:41,494 --> 00:12:42,629
Oh...

253
00:12:43,130 --> 00:12:46,565
You want to run from a fight?
Where's the fun in that?

254
00:12:46,566 --> 00:12:48,701
No, I'm not running
from you ever again.

255
00:12:49,469 --> 00:12:51,071
But you, on the other hand,

256
00:12:51,839 --> 00:12:53,106
you're going to spend
the remainder

257
00:12:53,206 --> 00:12:55,075
of your days running from me,

258
00:12:55,775 --> 00:12:57,510
just hoping and wishing

259
00:12:57,610 --> 00:13:00,379
and praying that I'm not lurking
over your shoulder,

260
00:13:00,380 --> 00:13:03,650
<i>ready to cut your heart
from out of your body.</i>

261
00:13:03,750 --> 00:13:05,385
So violent.

262
00:13:06,386 --> 00:13:07,888
You really are troubled.

263
00:13:07,988 --> 00:13:10,723
Don't call me troubled, Mom.
Don't call me troubled.

264
00:13:10,824 --> 00:13:13,726
Well, you are
definitely troubled.

265
00:13:14,594 --> 00:13:16,029
You're a freak.

266
00:13:20,433 --> 00:13:21,869
Don't call me a freak.

267
00:13:22,602 --> 00:13:23,837
Freak.

268
00:13:26,406 --> 00:13:28,241
You do realize
that anyone who has ever

269
00:13:28,375 --> 00:13:30,610
called me a freak is either
dead or dying.

270
00:13:30,743 --> 00:13:31,945
Is that so?

271
00:13:33,146 --> 00:13:36,583
- Well, I'm shaking in my pumps.
- Oh, you're gonna be the one

272
00:13:36,716 --> 00:13:38,085
shivering in agony and fear,
Mother.

273
00:13:38,218 --> 00:13:40,954
- That's for sure.
- Okay, freak.

274
00:13:41,088 --> 00:13:43,290
Don't call me a freak,
you stupid--!

275
00:13:43,723 --> 00:13:47,060
Where are you?
I want to come find you.

276
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:48,428
[Jason]
<i>Don't worry about where I am.</i>

277
00:13:48,528 --> 00:13:51,698
You said you wanted
to cut my heart out of my body.

278
00:13:52,565 --> 00:13:55,135
I want you to say it to my face.

279
00:13:55,235 --> 00:13:57,270
Well, don't worry, Victoria.

280
00:13:57,604 --> 00:13:59,772
I'm gonna find
you at the right time.

281
00:13:59,873 --> 00:14:00,941
You're gonna regret the day

282
00:14:01,041 --> 00:14:02,943
you ever pushed me out
of your nasty pussy,

283
00:14:03,043 --> 00:14:04,011
you fucking whore!

284
00:14:04,111 --> 00:14:07,014
I've regretted
that for a long time.

285
00:14:07,114 --> 00:14:09,116
Really?
You regretted having me, Mother?

286
00:14:09,249 --> 00:14:12,385
Ever since I realized you
were a freak.

287
00:14:15,455 --> 00:14:16,689
I hate you.

288
00:14:23,063 --> 00:14:24,531
Is he still on?

289
00:14:24,764 --> 00:14:27,534
- He just hung up.
- Damn.

290
00:14:28,435 --> 00:14:29,802
I'll see if we can get a trace.

291
00:14:29,937 --> 00:14:31,404
I don't think he was
on a cell phone.

292
00:14:31,504 --> 00:14:34,207
I've got the agency tracing
his phone and Rachel's phone.

293
00:14:36,977 --> 00:14:40,313
- He sounds, um...
- Crazy as hell?

294
00:14:41,781 --> 00:14:42,950
Yeah.

295
00:14:43,516 --> 00:14:46,786
- It's okay. We'll find him.
- It breaks my heart.

296
00:14:47,287 --> 00:14:48,421
You know, Agent and I

297
00:14:48,521 --> 00:14:50,991
better go and see if we can
pick up this trace.

298
00:14:51,491 --> 00:14:52,725
[sighing]

299
00:14:58,165 --> 00:15:00,600
Make sure you get
that story killed.

300
00:15:01,334 --> 00:15:02,569
I'm on it.

301
00:15:12,079 --> 00:15:13,880
[Victoria clears throat]

302
00:15:18,018 --> 00:15:19,852
Ms. Prinn,
I think I need a moment.

303
00:15:19,953 --> 00:15:23,190
I wish I could give you
a moment, but I can't, Hunter.

304
00:15:23,290 --> 00:15:24,390
Why not?

305
00:15:24,391 --> 00:15:27,027
Because 16-year-old
Marshawn was murdered

306
00:15:27,127 --> 00:15:29,529
outside of his home
while holding a pizza.

307
00:15:29,662 --> 00:15:31,230
There are a lot of protests

308
00:15:31,231 --> 00:15:32,865
that are popping up across
the nation,

309
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:34,267
and the people need to hear

310
00:15:34,367 --> 00:15:35,902
from their president right now.

311
00:15:36,669 --> 00:15:38,538
What am I supposed to say,
Ms. Prinn?

312
00:15:38,638 --> 00:15:40,873
I can have some remarks
prepared for you,

313
00:15:41,008 --> 00:15:43,310
but you will have
to answer some questions.

314
00:15:43,610 --> 00:15:45,378
I just don't think I have it
in me today.

315
00:15:45,512 --> 00:15:47,079
Well, you have to find
the patience

316
00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:48,415
for it today, Hunter.

317
00:15:49,049 --> 00:15:50,550
If I get up there...

318
00:15:51,584 --> 00:15:53,220
and say the wrong thing,

319
00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:56,089
you're gonna be sorry
you pushed this.

320
00:15:56,189 --> 00:15:58,558
You won't say the wrong
thing, Hunter.

321
00:15:58,925 --> 00:16:03,163
Right now, you need to man up,
and you need to be the president

322
00:16:03,263 --> 00:16:05,932
that the American people
elected you to be.

323
00:16:06,033 --> 00:16:07,267
[sighing]

324
00:16:09,402 --> 00:16:12,105
I'll do my best.
Tell me what you want me to say.

325
00:16:12,439 --> 00:16:13,573
[Dilva] I will, Hunter,

326
00:16:13,706 --> 00:16:16,909
but there is one thing
that I can't prepare for you.

327
00:16:17,010 --> 00:16:18,345
What is that?

328
00:16:18,445 --> 00:16:20,612
[Dilva] You pushed this whole
thing about police immunity.

329
00:16:20,613 --> 00:16:21,913
You have this new bill

330
00:16:21,914 --> 00:16:24,417
to protect police officers
in the line of duty.

331
00:16:24,817 --> 00:16:28,455
This bill will allow
this police officer to walk.

332
00:16:28,555 --> 00:16:29,756
The people believe that you

333
00:16:29,856 --> 00:16:32,192
have Marshawn's blood
on your hands.

334
00:16:32,559 --> 00:16:34,261
How long was this idiot
on the force?

335
00:16:34,361 --> 00:16:37,930
He was on a few forces
over the last couple of years.

336
00:16:38,065 --> 00:16:40,467
He was fired
at least four times.

337
00:16:41,068 --> 00:16:43,436
Why the hell do people
keep hiring him?

338
00:16:43,570 --> 00:16:46,173
[Dilva] Well, your police bill
will allow this, Hunter.

339
00:16:46,273 --> 00:16:48,475
The provisions will seal
past records,

340
00:16:48,608 --> 00:16:51,144
a provision that the police
unions fought for.

341
00:16:51,244 --> 00:16:53,880
But it will keep
prior offenses hidden.

342
00:16:53,980 --> 00:16:58,085
My police bill is all about
protecting good police officers,

343
00:16:58,185 --> 00:16:59,686
the one that protects all of us.

344
00:16:59,786 --> 00:17:02,489
Hunter,
it protects the bad ones, too.

345
00:17:02,589 --> 00:17:04,724
And people are very, very angry.

346
00:17:04,824 --> 00:17:05,925
[sighing deeply]

347
00:17:14,334 --> 00:17:19,439
[whistling]

348
00:17:41,761 --> 00:17:43,296
[snickers]

349
00:17:44,731 --> 00:17:49,302
Boom! [snickers, cackles]

350
00:18:02,649 --> 00:18:04,584
Hello, ma'am. Where's Priscilla?

351
00:18:04,684 --> 00:18:05,785
She's upstairs.

352
00:18:05,885 --> 00:18:08,155
I hope you had a chance
to talk some sense into her.

353
00:18:08,288 --> 00:18:10,190
Sam,
I can't make her do anything.

354
00:18:10,290 --> 00:18:11,591
She's a strong-willed woman.

355
00:18:11,691 --> 00:18:12,559
I know that.

356
00:18:12,659 --> 00:18:13,993
I just need your help
talking to her.

357
00:18:14,093 --> 00:18:15,828
She won't take any
advice from me,

358
00:18:15,962 --> 00:18:17,464
even though
I'm her damn husband.

359
00:18:17,564 --> 00:18:19,332
Well, I don't know
that she's in a place

360
00:18:19,432 --> 00:18:20,832
to hear it from me either.

361
00:18:20,833 --> 00:18:22,669
No, she's determined to stick it

362
00:18:22,769 --> 00:18:24,204
to these people
at the White House.

363
00:18:24,337 --> 00:18:26,538
Well, she has to be smarter
than that, ma'am,

364
00:18:26,539 --> 00:18:28,074
because these people will stick
it to her

365
00:18:28,175 --> 00:18:29,509
before she can stick it to them.

366
00:18:29,642 --> 00:18:33,780
I know, okay?
But you should be proud of her.

367
00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:35,415
She's been very brave.

368
00:18:35,782 --> 00:18:37,784
What good is bravery
if you're stupid?

369
00:18:38,017 --> 00:18:40,553
I don't want her to be
brave and dead, ma'am.

370
00:18:40,687 --> 00:18:41,821
I hear you.

371
00:18:42,155 --> 00:18:44,724
I do, but you need
to support her.

372
00:18:44,991 --> 00:18:46,726
And you have to protect her.

373
00:18:46,826 --> 00:18:48,695
You can't protect
someone who won't listen.

374
00:18:48,995 --> 00:18:53,900
All right, look, I understand,
and I will encourage her

375
00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:57,204
to put her emotions to the side
and be smart about this.

376
00:18:57,304 --> 00:18:58,371
Please.

377
00:18:59,206 --> 00:19:01,408
I hope she's not planning
on going home.

378
00:19:01,808 --> 00:19:05,744
- Sam... she is.
- No, Simone, she can't go home.

379
00:19:05,745 --> 00:19:08,648
- I tried to tell her that.
- You see what I mean?

380
00:19:08,748 --> 00:19:10,883
All these people are
dropping like flies around here,

381
00:19:10,983 --> 00:19:12,219
and she wants to go home?

382
00:19:12,552 --> 00:19:14,621
I mean, she's just inviting
Hunter's assassins

383
00:19:14,721 --> 00:19:15,888
to kill her, too.

384
00:19:15,988 --> 00:19:17,724
Look, she didn't want to put
your friends,

385
00:19:17,857 --> 00:19:19,326
Richard and Nancy,
in any danger.

386
00:19:19,426 --> 00:19:21,294
Then she shouldn't have
gone to the press.

387
00:19:22,695 --> 00:19:24,264
What do you want me to do?

388
00:19:26,233 --> 00:19:27,433
Can she stay with you?

389
00:19:27,434 --> 00:19:29,469
At least you guys
have a security detail.

390
00:19:29,836 --> 00:19:33,473
Sure. Sure, she can stay with
us... Yeah, I'm fine with that.

391
00:19:34,374 --> 00:19:36,943
- Thank you.
- But, Sam...

392
00:19:37,710 --> 00:19:42,249
- [Sam] Yes, ma'am.
- I can only ask her, okay?

393
00:19:42,349 --> 00:19:43,583
I can't force her to come.

394
00:19:44,116 --> 00:19:47,820
I... I understand.
But do the best you can.

395
00:19:58,765 --> 00:20:00,400
Please... Please be seated.

396
00:20:02,535 --> 00:20:03,770
[sighs]

397
00:20:05,638 --> 00:20:06,873
Good evening.

398
00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:09,308
I wanted to come before you.

399
00:20:09,309 --> 00:20:13,313
My staff has just briefed me
on the tragic incident

400
00:20:13,413 --> 00:20:15,081
involving Marshawn Brookes.

401
00:20:15,181 --> 00:20:18,618
Marshawn,
a 16-year-old honor student,

402
00:20:19,118 --> 00:20:20,820
a member of his
school's marching band,

403
00:20:20,953 --> 00:20:24,757
had evidently gone to the front
curb in front of his home

404
00:20:25,292 --> 00:20:26,926
to get a pizza he had ordered.

405
00:20:27,126 --> 00:20:29,429
Somehow, a police officer,

406
00:20:29,529 --> 00:20:32,632
responding to a call next door,
approached Marshawn.

407
00:20:32,899 --> 00:20:35,302
On the video,
it seemed to show Marshawn

408
00:20:35,435 --> 00:20:38,371
ignoring or not
hearing the officer

409
00:20:38,471 --> 00:20:40,873
as the teen is trying
to get into the house.

410
00:20:40,973 --> 00:20:45,412
We think to get his mother,
or so it appears.

411
00:20:45,678 --> 00:20:49,916
While trying to get to his front
porch, Marshawn is shot dead.

412
00:20:52,018 --> 00:20:55,654
I had seen the video
and I am very troubled.

413
00:20:55,655 --> 00:20:58,824
I also understand that the video
was buried for weeks,

414
00:20:58,825 --> 00:21:00,760
and that his mother was given

415
00:21:00,860 --> 00:21:04,397
a completely different account
about what happened.

416
00:21:04,631 --> 00:21:08,000
This is also very
troubling to me.

417
00:21:08,435 --> 00:21:10,503
I have instructed
the Justice Department

418
00:21:10,603 --> 00:21:13,573
to take over the investigation
for the local police department.

419
00:21:13,673 --> 00:21:16,142
I want to ensure
the American people

420
00:21:16,242 --> 00:21:19,646
that we will get to the truth.

421
00:21:19,746 --> 00:21:21,881
Justice will be served.

422
00:21:22,014 --> 00:21:24,517
But for now, I ask that people

423
00:21:24,651 --> 00:21:27,520
remain calm and allow
the Justice Department

424
00:21:27,654 --> 00:21:30,957
to conduct a thorough
and independent investigation.

425
00:21:31,290 --> 00:21:34,761
I think it's... [sighs]
I think it's important

426
00:21:34,861 --> 00:21:36,663
that we not rush to judgment.

427
00:21:36,863 --> 00:21:38,197
I know that such shootings

428
00:21:38,331 --> 00:21:42,067
happen far too often and...
and cause great concern,

429
00:21:42,068 --> 00:21:45,805
particularly for people
and communities of color.

430
00:21:46,373 --> 00:21:47,906
I understand the anger,

431
00:21:47,907 --> 00:21:50,777
the fear and frustrations
of this moment.

432
00:21:50,877 --> 00:21:55,882
I assure everyone
that we will get the truth.

433
00:21:56,549 --> 00:21:59,386
With that, I will, uh...
I will take a few questions.

434
00:22:01,854 --> 00:22:03,289
Mr. President, at this hour,

435
00:22:03,390 --> 00:22:05,558
we have angry crowds descending
upon the streets

436
00:22:05,658 --> 00:22:07,927
of New York City,
Washington, D.C.,

437
00:22:08,060 --> 00:22:10,763
Los Angeles, Chicago, Atlanta.

438
00:22:10,897 --> 00:22:12,231
Have any of the city officials

439
00:22:12,365 --> 00:22:14,767
or legislators reached
out to you for help?

440
00:22:14,901 --> 00:22:15,902
Oh, yeah.

441
00:22:16,002 --> 00:22:18,204
No, we have heard from mayors
and governors.

442
00:22:18,405 --> 00:22:20,440
I have instructed
my administration

443
00:22:20,573 --> 00:22:23,575
to provide
all resources and support

444
00:22:23,576 --> 00:22:25,812
that local communities will
need at this time.

445
00:22:25,912 --> 00:22:27,747
What do you say
to those angry people descending

446
00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:30,450
upon the streets
of these cities in protest?

447
00:22:30,583 --> 00:22:33,853
Public protest is
a God-given right

448
00:22:34,253 --> 00:22:38,357
and a right that we
as Americans must cherish.

449
00:22:38,458 --> 00:22:42,429
I want every American's right
to protest to be protected.

450
00:22:43,362 --> 00:22:44,697
That being said,

451
00:22:45,131 --> 00:22:47,700
I must emphasize
that the protest

452
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:49,268
has to remain peaceful.

453
00:22:49,368 --> 00:22:53,640
There is no place for vandalism,
violence, looting.

454
00:22:54,073 --> 00:22:58,244
Anyone who participates in such
behavior will be arrested

455
00:22:58,344 --> 00:23:01,514
and prosecuted to the fullest
extent of the law.

456
00:23:02,314 --> 00:23:03,583
Next question.

457
00:23:04,884 --> 00:23:06,385
Thank you, Mr. President.

458
00:23:06,486 --> 00:23:09,856
Congressman Collins and civil
rights attorney Leno Fuller

459
00:23:09,956 --> 00:23:12,291
just held a joint press
conference last night.

460
00:23:12,391 --> 00:23:15,061
They allege that this has
been a long-standing problem

461
00:23:15,161 --> 00:23:17,697
in America that you are about
to make even worse.

462
00:23:17,797 --> 00:23:20,633

00:23:42,989 --> 00:23:44,090
is on his hands."

472
00:23:44,591 --> 00:23:46,993
How do you respond to the people
of this country that are saying

473
00:23:47,093 --> 00:23:50,396
that you have emboldened police
and will now make them

474
00:23:50,497 --> 00:23:53,365
above the law once
your immunity bill passes?

475
00:23:55,101 --> 00:23:56,234
I disagree.

476
00:23:56,235 --> 00:23:59,105
The police bill will protect
police officers

477
00:23:59,205 --> 00:24:00,540
across the country

478
00:24:00,673 --> 00:24:06,012
who go on the streets every day
and put their lives on the line

479
00:24:06,112 --> 00:24:09,682
for the safety
of all the American people.

480
00:24:09,782 --> 00:24:13,185
There are times when police
officers are forced to make...

481
00:24:14,220 --> 00:24:17,222
impossibly tough decisions in an
instant

482
00:24:17,223 --> 00:24:18,658
while in the line of duty.

483
00:24:19,091 --> 00:24:24,096
The new law will protect them
when acting in the line of duty.

484
00:24:24,196 --> 00:24:25,898
So why send
your Justice Department

485
00:24:25,998 --> 00:24:27,834
to investigate this, sir?

486
00:24:27,934 --> 00:24:29,602
Your bill, if passed,

487
00:24:29,936 --> 00:24:33,405
would already give this police
officer-- whom, by the way,

488
00:24:33,506 --> 00:24:36,342
has been fired from four
different police departments--

489
00:24:36,442 --> 00:24:39,145
complete immunity
from any prosecution.

490
00:24:39,245 --> 00:24:40,780
No, that is not exactly true.

491
00:24:40,913 --> 00:24:42,915
There are federal charges
that can be brought.

492
00:24:43,015 --> 00:24:44,917
Sir, are you familiar
with your own bill?

493
00:24:45,051 --> 00:24:48,921
Your bill protects this officer
from being prosecuted

494
00:24:49,021 --> 00:24:52,959
for the cold-blooded murder
for the 16-year-old boy.

495
00:24:53,092 --> 00:24:54,761
How can you create such a bill?

496
00:24:54,861 --> 00:24:56,328
And then, after creating
such a bill,

497
00:24:56,428 --> 00:24:58,631
why send your Justice Department
to investigate

498
00:24:58,731 --> 00:24:59,766
something that they will soon

499
00:24:59,899 --> 00:25:01,768
not be able to do
anything about?

500
00:25:02,068 --> 00:25:03,335
I, um...

501
00:25:07,306 --> 00:25:09,075
I, um, uh...

502
00:25:10,242 --> 00:25:11,911
I will I will need
to look into this matter,

503
00:25:12,011 --> 00:25:13,813
- Sir, look into the matter?
- [Hunter] Thank you very much.

504
00:25:13,913 --> 00:25:15,615
[Reporter] Mr. President,
please don't leave.

505
00:25:15,715 --> 00:25:17,983
- One more question.
- Can you answer the question?

506
00:25:17,984 --> 00:25:19,952
The American people
deserve an answer.

507
00:25:20,052 --> 00:25:24,656
There are people angrily
protesting the unprovoked murder

508
00:25:24,657 --> 00:25:27,326
of an unarmed, innocent
Black kid.

509
00:25:27,459 --> 00:25:30,162
What an idiot... No. Come on.

510
00:25:30,262 --> 00:25:31,631
I told him the police
bill was bad.

511
00:25:31,764 --> 00:25:33,800
He's been bought
off by the police unions.

512
00:25:33,933 --> 00:25:34,967
This... This bill was just

513
00:25:35,067 --> 00:25:37,536
funded by right-wing crazies
and loonies.

514
00:25:40,607 --> 00:25:42,074
He should've listened to you, sir.

515
00:25:43,275 --> 00:25:44,676
What is it, Cross?

516
00:25:44,677 --> 00:25:47,647
I have your menu for the week.
The chef needs your approval.

517
00:25:48,447 --> 00:25:51,182
My approval?
They already know what I like.

518
00:25:51,183 --> 00:25:52,151
<i>You</i> know what I like.

519
00:25:52,251 --> 00:25:53,920
I understand,
but it's a new chef.

520
00:25:55,722 --> 00:25:56,823
Soup every day?

521
00:25:57,256 --> 00:25:59,158
Yeah... They were made aware
of your diet

522
00:25:59,291 --> 00:26:01,527
that you wanted
to be high in greens, beans.

523
00:26:01,628 --> 00:26:07,366
So the soup has, uh, white
beans, kale, plenty of veggies.

524
00:26:07,466 --> 00:26:09,034
It's okay. It's fine. Whatever.

525
00:26:09,035 --> 00:26:10,336
I guess the chef's probably
good at those.

526
00:26:10,436 --> 00:26:12,471
I understand that her soups
are to die for.

527
00:26:12,705 --> 00:26:16,308
Mm... To die for. Okay, yeah.
Fine... Approved.

528
00:26:16,643 --> 00:26:19,846
Thank you, Mr. Vice President.
Oh, and, sir...

529
00:26:19,946 --> 00:26:21,047
What is it, Cross?

530
00:26:21,313 --> 00:26:24,684
I've got myself on a list
of agents to guard Mr. Cayden.

531
00:26:25,017 --> 00:26:26,385
Mm... Is that right?

532
00:26:26,886 --> 00:26:29,055
Yes, sir.
I'm gonna get the job done.

533
00:26:29,155 --> 00:26:30,889
Well, we'll see, Cross.

534
00:26:30,890 --> 00:26:32,692
You'll excuse me
if I don't hold my breath.

535
00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:35,560
I will regain
your confidence, sir.

536
00:26:35,561 --> 00:26:36,729
Bobby Cayden in the casket

537
00:26:36,863 --> 00:26:38,564
is the only way
to build my confidence.

538
00:26:38,665 --> 00:26:39,899
Yes, sir.

539
00:26:46,238 --> 00:26:51,310
[monitor beeping]

540
00:26:53,479 --> 00:26:55,581
Sorry,
I didn't mean to wake you.

541
00:26:55,915 --> 00:26:57,583
It's not your fault.

542
00:26:59,318 --> 00:27:03,155
I'm an agent like you.
I sleep with one eye open.

543
00:27:03,289 --> 00:27:05,624
[chuckling]

544
00:27:05,725 --> 00:27:08,194
Yeah... sure.

545
00:27:10,396 --> 00:27:11,698
How you feeling?

546
00:27:13,232 --> 00:27:17,970
- Oh, I feel like shit.
- I'm sorry to hear that.

547
00:27:18,570 --> 00:27:23,309
- Can I get you anything?
- No... no, I just...

548
00:27:24,076 --> 00:27:28,514
gotta let this body heal itself
like everybody keeps telling me.

549
00:27:28,614 --> 00:27:31,183
Yes, but the good news
is that the body

550
00:27:31,317 --> 00:27:32,351
will eventually heal

551
00:27:32,484 --> 00:27:34,687
and this will all be
a memory one day.

552
00:27:34,821 --> 00:27:38,257
Yeah...
A memory I will never forget.

553
00:27:38,958 --> 00:27:41,160
Well, um, I'll let
you get some rest.

554
00:27:41,260 --> 00:27:43,896
All right... Hey, Alonzo.

555
00:27:44,964 --> 00:27:47,867
- Yeah?
- Thank you.

556
00:27:49,035 --> 00:27:50,302
You know...

557
00:27:52,104 --> 00:27:54,440
Thank you
for looking out for me.

558
00:27:54,540 --> 00:27:56,242
I had no choice.

559
00:27:56,675 --> 00:27:59,345
Donald threatened me
within an inch of my life.

560
00:27:59,478 --> 00:28:00,579
[both chuckle]

561
00:28:00,679 --> 00:28:02,882
He really does care for you.

562
00:28:03,382 --> 00:28:05,484
- Yeah.
- [phone rings]

563
00:28:07,653 --> 00:28:11,423
Well, speak of the angel, huh?
Is that him?

564
00:28:11,758 --> 00:28:13,025
Yep.

565
00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:14,727
Yes, it is.

566
00:28:14,827 --> 00:28:16,694
Can you put
it on speaker for me?

567
00:28:16,695 --> 00:28:19,531
- Yeah.
- Just put it on my lap.

568
00:28:19,899 --> 00:28:21,033
[phone ringing]

569
00:28:21,133 --> 00:28:24,570
- On my chest... Hey, guys.
- Hey!

570
00:28:25,304 --> 00:28:26,372
Hey, boo!

571
00:28:26,505 --> 00:28:30,910
Hey... Hey... That was just
Alonzo. Don't get angry.

572
00:28:31,343 --> 00:28:32,411
<i>What's up, lover?</i>

573
00:28:32,544 --> 00:28:34,346
Hey, I didn't know if you'd
be able to answer.

574
00:28:34,446 --> 00:28:37,583
Oh, well, you know,
I figured it out.

575
00:28:38,084 --> 00:28:40,619
[chuckles] How are you?

576
00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:45,191
Uh, you know, everything hurts.

577
00:28:45,524 --> 00:28:47,626
Look, I'll be there as soon
as I can, okay?

578
00:28:47,894 --> 00:28:48,995
It's fine.

579
00:28:49,428 --> 00:28:53,932
- [sighs] You can take your time.
- Is Alonzo checking on you?

580
00:28:53,933 --> 00:28:54,901
[Kyle] <i>He is.</i>

581
00:28:55,034 --> 00:28:56,936
He told me that you
threatened him.

582
00:28:57,336 --> 00:28:58,704
Did he? [chuckles]

583
00:28:58,805 --> 00:29:03,742
Cutiepants. Well, how about you?
You okay?

584
00:29:04,310 --> 00:29:07,213
- Did you get the story killed?
- [Donald] <i>Yeah, I think so.</i>

585
00:29:07,313 --> 00:29:08,580
<i>At least I hope so.</i>

586
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:11,650
Look, Kyle,
I hate to ask you this... Um...

587
00:29:13,285 --> 00:29:15,921
Do you have any idea
yet who the mole is?

588
00:29:15,922 --> 00:29:20,292
- No, but I'm gonna find out.
- [Donald] <i>Okay.</i>

589
00:29:20,426 --> 00:29:21,759
<i>You just get some rest, okay?</i>

590
00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:23,830
I'll be there and bring you
something to eat when I can.

591
00:29:23,930 --> 00:29:27,033
- Got it?
- You are my angel.

592
00:29:27,266 --> 00:29:28,600
- Yeah.
- [Kyle] <i>I love you, Donald.</i>

593
00:29:28,935 --> 00:29:30,669
Yeah, I love you, too, Kyle.

594
00:29:31,237 --> 00:29:33,605
- Bye.
- Bye.

595
00:29:39,011 --> 00:29:44,816
It feels good to be sitting at
our dining table having dinner

596
00:29:44,817 --> 00:29:45,852
with my wife.

597
00:29:46,718 --> 00:29:49,388
[sighs] I'm not gonna lie.

598
00:29:50,522 --> 00:29:51,623
You were so mad at me,

599
00:29:51,723 --> 00:29:53,759
I didn't think I'd ever
have you back here.

600
00:29:53,860 --> 00:29:58,497
Oh... Well, you didn't pray
to bring me back here?

601
00:29:58,965 --> 00:30:00,867
Yeah, you know I did.

602
00:30:01,500 --> 00:30:02,801
Then why so surprised?

603
00:30:02,902 --> 00:30:05,972
Because you were so angry,
it even tested <i>my faith</i> .

604
00:30:06,072 --> 00:30:08,074
I was questioning if even
the good Lord

605
00:30:08,174 --> 00:30:12,511
- himself could calm you down.
- Oh, no. God can do anything.

606
00:30:12,611 --> 00:30:14,813
[chuckles] Yes, He can.

607
00:30:15,581 --> 00:30:19,151
As God is my witness,
you're sitting here.

608
00:30:20,019 --> 00:30:21,187
I am.

609
00:30:21,687 --> 00:30:25,024
I mean, how could
I stay away from you?

610
00:30:33,332 --> 00:30:36,502
So I hear the press conference
didn't go so well.

611
00:30:37,870 --> 00:30:39,305
No, it did not.

612
00:30:39,838 --> 00:30:42,674
You know, this police bill I
pushed has a lot of holes in it?

613
00:30:42,808 --> 00:30:46,545
Uh... yeah.
It's a really bad bill.

614
00:30:47,046 --> 00:30:49,181
[sighs deeply]
What do we do now?

615
00:30:49,281 --> 00:30:51,150
First, you don't sign
that bill into law.

616
00:30:51,550 --> 00:30:53,886
Donald... It's my bill.

617
00:30:53,986 --> 00:30:55,187
[Donald] Yeah, I know,

618
00:30:55,287 --> 00:30:56,522
but you're the President
of the United States, okay?

619
00:30:56,655 --> 00:30:59,557
You get that bill amended, changed.

620
00:30:59,558 --> 00:31:02,393
Look, you got... you got lawyers
on the government's payroll.

621
00:31:02,394 --> 00:31:04,630
You got friends in Congress.
Talk to them.

622
00:31:04,863 --> 00:31:06,365
Get them to redraft the bill.

623
00:31:07,166 --> 00:31:08,500
Like always, that's good advice.

624
00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:12,004
But first... you need to start
by getting that rogue cop off

625
00:31:12,104 --> 00:31:13,538
of the street right now.

626
00:31:13,539 --> 00:31:15,674
And then you need
to open up dialog

627
00:31:15,874 --> 00:31:18,444
with the African American
community, and your wife,

628
00:31:18,544 --> 00:31:21,713
Victoria, she needs to help you.

629
00:31:22,148 --> 00:31:24,083
I don't know if that's
going to happen, Donald.

630
00:31:24,816 --> 00:31:25,884
She hates social politics.

631
00:31:26,152 --> 00:31:27,753
[Donald] Well that's something
you got to work on.

632
00:31:27,886 --> 00:31:30,222
She is an African American
woman, Mr. President.

633
00:31:30,522 --> 00:31:32,558
And no matter what the facts
or opinions are,

634
00:31:33,059 --> 00:31:34,626
she's the only
thing from keeping you

635
00:31:34,726 --> 00:31:36,595
from being called a racist
right now.

636
00:31:36,895 --> 00:31:38,297
[sighing]

637
00:31:43,002 --> 00:31:44,170
Hey there, Holker.

638
00:31:44,536 --> 00:31:45,972
- You relieving me?
- Yeah.

639
00:31:46,238 --> 00:31:49,275
- How's he doing?
- Uh... He's good.

640
00:31:50,109 --> 00:31:51,410
Okay. What's he doing?

641
00:31:52,644 --> 00:31:53,912
I think he's sleeping.

642
00:31:54,546 --> 00:31:56,715
All right, well,
I'll let him get some rest.

643
00:31:57,049 --> 00:31:58,750
You go ahead
and get out of here.

644
00:31:58,951 --> 00:32:00,286
- Thanks, man.
- Yeah.

645
00:32:01,220 --> 00:32:02,521
Enjoy your shift.

646
00:32:12,331 --> 00:32:13,665
[chuckles]

647
00:32:15,367 --> 00:32:16,668
You know...

648
00:32:17,736 --> 00:32:19,038
I can get used to this.

649
00:32:19,371 --> 00:32:22,774
What, me feeding you
in a hospital bed?

650
00:32:23,475 --> 00:32:25,244
You know that's not
what I meant.

651
00:32:26,345 --> 00:32:28,547
I mean, eating dinner
with you every night.

652
00:32:29,815 --> 00:32:32,051
Well, do I have to cook
every night?

653
00:32:32,518 --> 00:32:34,753
No... Not every night.

654
00:32:35,887 --> 00:32:37,389
I could cook sometime.

655
00:32:37,689 --> 00:32:40,792
Having someone cook for me
sounds like a dream.

656
00:32:43,996 --> 00:32:45,231
Cross?

657
00:32:45,731 --> 00:32:47,866
- Hey.
- Hey, Bobby.

658
00:32:50,169 --> 00:32:52,038
Cross is one of the agents
at the White House.

659
00:32:52,604 --> 00:32:55,041
He guards the Vice President
and the Second Lady now.

660
00:32:55,174 --> 00:32:58,544
- Yeah, I know. We met already.
- Yeah, I, um...

661
00:32:59,478 --> 00:33:02,014
I was just coming to let you
know that I was outside.

662
00:33:02,714 --> 00:33:05,916
- I'll be here for my shift.
- I appreciate it, man.

663
00:33:05,917 --> 00:33:08,554
Of course... I gotta look
out for you, brother.

664
00:33:08,654 --> 00:33:12,757
- You might need a nap.
- No. I'm good. Thanks.

665
00:33:12,758 --> 00:33:13,625
Okay.

666
00:33:13,725 --> 00:33:16,395
Yeah...
And when he sleeps, I'm here.

667
00:33:16,495 --> 00:33:20,332
Okay, yeah... Um, you're gonna
need rest, too, right?

668
00:33:20,566 --> 00:33:23,602
No... I'm not leaving his side.

669
00:33:24,570 --> 00:33:29,007
Well, if you all need anything,
I'll be outside.

670
00:33:29,375 --> 00:33:30,642
Mm-hmm.

671
00:33:32,678 --> 00:33:34,446
- [Cross] Okay.
- Cross.

672
00:33:35,247 --> 00:33:36,448
[Cross] Max.

673
00:33:36,915 --> 00:33:38,217
What are you doing here?

674
00:33:38,917 --> 00:33:40,186
I'm covering for Holker.

675
00:33:41,353 --> 00:33:42,621
Huh?

676
00:33:43,455 --> 00:33:45,291
I told Holker <i>I</i> would
relieve him.

677
00:33:45,557 --> 00:33:47,759
Yeah, Alonzo told me that you
all needed help,

678
00:33:47,859 --> 00:33:50,129
- so I volunteered.
- Oh.

679
00:33:50,396 --> 00:33:53,265
Well, thanks, but, uh, I got it.

680
00:33:53,632 --> 00:33:57,636
Okay, well, I'm in the area
if you need any relief.

681
00:33:58,370 --> 00:33:59,605
I'll be fine.

682
00:34:00,272 --> 00:34:04,310
Okay...
Well, you all enjoy your dinner.

683
00:34:04,810 --> 00:34:06,112
Have a good night.

684
00:34:06,845 --> 00:34:08,147
Oh, and Cross?

685
00:34:10,048 --> 00:34:11,283
Yeah.

686
00:34:11,783 --> 00:34:13,219
Thanks for volunteering.

687
00:34:14,753 --> 00:34:16,622
Of course. Anytime.

688
00:34:17,556 --> 00:34:21,160
[monitor beeping]

689
00:34:27,999 --> 00:34:30,569
Max...
why do you look like that?

690
00:34:30,802 --> 00:34:33,639
- Why do I look like what?
- You okay?

691
00:34:34,005 --> 00:34:35,006
Yeah, I'm good.

692
00:34:35,141 --> 00:34:36,542
Just eat your fries and shut up.

693
00:34:39,545 --> 00:34:42,114
Isn't it nice of these guys
do volunteer their time for me?

694
00:34:43,081 --> 00:34:45,784
Yeah. Yeah, I guess it is.

695
00:34:48,053 --> 00:34:49,520
[traffic roars]

696
00:34:49,521 --> 00:34:51,323
[door creaks]

697
00:34:58,997 --> 00:35:01,032
- Hey.
- Hey, Sam.

698
00:35:01,867 --> 00:35:03,835
- No luck?
- [Isaac] Not yet.

699
00:35:04,170 --> 00:35:06,138
Did you scout the entrance
before you came in?

700
00:35:06,972 --> 00:35:08,039
I did.

701
00:35:08,174 --> 00:35:10,108
And you got agents
searching all over the city?

702
00:35:10,209 --> 00:35:11,410
Yeah, uh...

703
00:35:11,910 --> 00:35:13,212
I'm monitoring police scanners,

704
00:35:13,312 --> 00:35:16,081
public transportation,
porno shops,

705
00:35:16,415 --> 00:35:17,515
Porno shops?

706
00:35:17,516 --> 00:35:18,683
I'm trying to get into his head

707
00:35:18,684 --> 00:35:20,286
to figure out
where he might show up.

708
00:35:20,386 --> 00:35:24,490
And you guys think he might show
up here at Kyle's apartment?

709
00:35:25,357 --> 00:35:27,993
- It was a hunch Donald had.
- Okay.

710
00:35:28,827 --> 00:35:30,562
I've had an agent here
all afternoon.

711
00:35:31,230 --> 00:35:36,067
- Yeah. Keep two agents here.
- It'll be tough, but I'll try.

712
00:35:37,403 --> 00:35:38,870
Look, you have to.
It's important.

713
00:35:40,539 --> 00:35:41,873
This kid's crazy.

714
00:35:49,615 --> 00:35:51,883
I talked to the maid.
Are we expecting someone?

715
00:35:52,718 --> 00:35:55,086
I've been texting you
for the last two hours.

716
00:35:55,387 --> 00:35:57,356
[sighing] Uh... I'm sorry.

717
00:35:57,456 --> 00:35:59,925
I... I've been really
distracted today.

718
00:36:00,726 --> 00:36:03,962
Priscilla's not safe, okay?

719
00:36:04,363 --> 00:36:06,432
And you know she went
to that reporter for us.

720
00:36:07,933 --> 00:36:09,335
Yeah... And I heard

721
00:36:09,435 --> 00:36:11,370
that Abrielle Monroe was
murdered today.

722
00:36:11,470 --> 00:36:13,772
And she thinks they're
going to come after her next.

723
00:36:14,973 --> 00:36:17,776
So Sam asked her
to stay here with us.

724
00:36:18,577 --> 00:36:19,978
- With us?
- Yeah.

725
00:36:20,111 --> 00:36:21,613
He felt that that was the best
thing

726
00:36:21,713 --> 00:36:24,283
to do since we have
a security detail here.

727
00:36:24,850 --> 00:36:25,917
I don't know, Simone.

728
00:36:26,017 --> 00:36:29,455
We have to.
It's not safe at her house.

729
00:36:29,955 --> 00:36:30,922
You do realize that her

730
00:36:31,022 --> 00:36:32,924
being here jeopardizes
all of our safety.

731
00:36:33,459 --> 00:36:35,060
With the three of
us here together,

732
00:36:35,160 --> 00:36:36,562
the chance of an attack
goes up exponentially.

733
00:36:36,662 --> 00:36:41,333
She went to the press for us,
Eli, okay?

734
00:36:41,633 --> 00:36:45,504
She stood with you when you took
over from Hunter.

735
00:36:45,771 --> 00:36:49,375
Damn it, Simone! [sighs deeply]

736
00:36:49,775 --> 00:36:52,811
Eli, we have to. That's it.

737
00:36:54,680 --> 00:36:55,981
Okay... Okay, Simone.

738
00:36:56,081 --> 00:36:58,950
But when this backfires on us,
remember what I told you.

739
00:37:14,866 --> 00:37:19,204
Oh, God, Priscilla.
Come on, please pick up.

740
00:37:20,071 --> 00:37:24,009
Hello, Priscilla?
Look, it's me, Simone.

741
00:37:24,343 --> 00:37:25,544
I've talked to Eli,

742
00:37:25,777 --> 00:37:27,879
and we know it's not safe
for you to stay at your house.

743
00:37:28,013 --> 00:37:31,383
We want you to come here, okay?
We have a security detail.

744
00:37:31,517 --> 00:37:32,818
You'll be safe here.

745
00:37:37,489 --> 00:37:38,724
- Simone.
- What?

746
00:37:39,124 --> 00:37:41,026
- Look.
- [Anchor] <i>In a remarkable</i>

747
00:37:41,126 --> 00:37:44,695

760
00:38:17,796 --> 00:38:20,966
Oh, my God, do you think they're
trying to send us a message?

761
00:38:23,234 --> 00:38:26,104
Yeah...
Message received loud and clear.

762
00:38:27,373 --> 00:38:28,640
We're in over our heads.

763
00:38:30,942 --> 00:38:32,242
I found another agent.

764
00:38:32,243 --> 00:38:34,413
He's on his way over here
right now to cover.

765
00:38:34,513 --> 00:38:35,781
All right. Great.

766
00:38:37,048 --> 00:38:41,219
So we'll be ready if Jason
Franklin decides to come here.

767
00:38:43,455 --> 00:38:46,291
- Question, Sam.
- Yeah.

768
00:38:47,292 --> 00:38:48,594
Dead or alive?

769
00:38:50,562 --> 00:38:53,632
If they kill him, they'll be
doing us all a favor, but...

770
00:38:54,533 --> 00:38:56,702
the President and First lady
want him brought in alive.

771
00:38:57,268 --> 00:38:59,337
- Then we'll try our best.
- [phone rings]

772
00:39:02,207 --> 00:39:05,276
Excuse me... Yeah?

773
00:39:06,378 --> 00:39:07,679
Wait... What?

774
00:39:08,914 --> 00:39:12,283
You gotta be kidding me...
Thanks.

775
00:39:13,218 --> 00:39:14,386
What? What is it?

776
00:39:14,653 --> 00:39:17,523
Jason Franklin made that call
earlier from your house, Sam.

777
00:39:17,789 --> 00:39:20,325
Jason Franklin is in your house.

778
00:39:20,459 --> 00:39:24,029
Oh, my God. My wife is there.

779
00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:31,470
[sighing]

780
00:39:36,341 --> 00:39:37,576
Hey.

781
00:39:38,744 --> 00:39:40,011
Yes?

782
00:39:41,112 --> 00:39:44,215
- You live here?
- Well, that depends.

783
00:39:45,250 --> 00:39:48,654
- I'm looking for a friend.
- Aren't we all?

784
00:39:49,755 --> 00:39:51,056
Are you flirting with me?

785
00:39:51,890 --> 00:39:53,191
I could be.

786
00:39:54,025 --> 00:39:56,995
- You're a handsome man.
- Well, thank you.

787
00:39:57,295 --> 00:40:00,999
So I was wondering if you
could help me find my friend.

788
00:40:01,199 --> 00:40:02,868
And what friend is that?

789
00:40:03,835 --> 00:40:05,170
His name is Allan.

790
00:40:05,471 --> 00:40:08,039
You don't know
if your friend is here?

791
00:40:08,740 --> 00:40:10,008
No.

792
00:40:10,842 --> 00:40:12,478
Oh, well, call him.

793
00:40:13,612 --> 00:40:16,346
I would, but he's moving.

794
00:40:16,347 --> 00:40:18,484
[chuckles] That's all bullshit.

795
00:40:18,817 --> 00:40:20,351
- No, it's not.
- [Beaumont] Yes, it is.

796
00:40:20,452 --> 00:40:23,021
I'm ex-military and I
know bullshit when I hear it.

797
00:40:23,589 --> 00:40:26,692
- Well, I'm telling the truth.
- Okay, so call him.

798
00:40:27,693 --> 00:40:30,496
I would. He changed his number.

799
00:40:31,196 --> 00:40:34,265
Hmm... So you're a stalker?

800
00:40:35,066 --> 00:40:38,403
[scoffs] No.

801
00:40:38,504 --> 00:40:41,973
[chuckles] Okay... All right.

802
00:40:43,174 --> 00:40:44,710
Would a stalker have this body?

803
00:40:44,810 --> 00:40:46,912
Oh, I've seen them
come in all packages.

804
00:40:47,345 --> 00:40:51,349
Well. I'm not... The truth is...

805
00:40:53,318 --> 00:40:54,385
Go on.

806
00:40:54,820 --> 00:40:58,957
I met this guy named Allan,
and he's sexy.

807
00:40:59,825 --> 00:41:01,693
And I thought he
lived in this building,

808
00:41:02,694 --> 00:41:04,229
and I'm just trying to find him.

809
00:41:04,730 --> 00:41:05,997
For what?

810
00:41:06,965 --> 00:41:08,333
I want to ask him out.

811
00:41:09,067 --> 00:41:11,703
Ah, that's how
it goes nowadays, huh?

812
00:41:11,803 --> 00:41:14,606
You... You don't wait
for the man to ask you out.

813
00:41:15,406 --> 00:41:17,943
No...
that's not how it goes anymore.

814
00:41:18,043 --> 00:41:20,512
Mm...
Well, I don't know an Allan.

815
00:41:21,079 --> 00:41:23,782
Okay...
I don't want to be too pushy.

816
00:41:23,915 --> 00:41:25,183
Oh, you already have.

817
00:41:26,918 --> 00:41:28,119
Thank you.

818
00:41:28,554 --> 00:41:29,821
You can leave now.

819
00:41:30,756 --> 00:41:32,157
I was going to leave anyways.

820
00:41:37,328 --> 00:41:38,664
She thinks I'm stupid.

821
00:41:43,001 --> 00:41:45,003
Bitch that shot me right there,
that bitch right there walking.

822
00:41:45,103 --> 00:41:46,638
Damn, she fine! Where you going?

823
00:41:46,738 --> 00:41:49,641
- Ah, shit.
- [Patricia] <i>Next on</i> The Oval.

824
00:41:49,975 --> 00:41:51,677
God, I hope we get this asshole.

825
00:41:51,810 --> 00:41:53,812
Calling all those kids parents
really,

826
00:41:53,912 --> 00:41:55,145
really took a toll on me.

827
00:41:55,146 --> 00:41:56,981
[Bobby] We have to be honest
with one another.

828
00:41:56,982 --> 00:41:58,449
Will Donald give you a divorce?

829
00:41:58,550 --> 00:42:00,251
[intense music]

830
00:42:00,351 --> 00:42:03,421
Someone did try to kill Bobby.
And of course, it wasn't me.

831
00:42:03,521 --> 00:42:05,657
I don't have a black snake
tattoo on my stomach.

832
00:42:05,757 --> 00:42:08,526
He kidnaped Priscilla and tried
to murder her, too, right?

833
00:42:08,660 --> 00:42:09,661
[Kyle] <i>So I'm right.</i>

834
00:42:09,761 --> 00:42:12,097
He's planning
on paying all of us a visit.

835
00:42:15,166 --> 00:42:19,337
[rousing music]

836
00:42:46,464 --> 00:42:48,133
[gentle music]

837
00:42:48,399 --> 00:42:50,435
[upbeat music]
