What's your relationship with Hoban?

Let's just say we have similar business interests.

As a non US citizen, it's illegal for Mr. Hoban

to make donations to US super PACS

and it's illegal for me to accept them.

That won't be a problem.

I want you to delete any correspondence between

Koscielny and CHIESURIN, everything.

Emails, texts, phone logs...

- Any record of this meeting. - What's going on?

No... just do it.

What are you doing?

You know exactly what I'm doing.

I don't know what she sees in you.

She received a donation from Citizens First

a shell company registered in Toronto

controlled by Martin Hoban, a Canadian businessman.

It's all in there.

What did she give him in return?

I don't know.

I need you to continue monitoring her.

No way. You said this was it.

I can't.

Here.

I could lose my job.

No one will ever find out.

It's ten thousand dollars.

It's your choice, if you don't want it

all you have to do is leave.

But if you continue, you will make a lot of money.

Trust me, no one will ever find out.

You want to be on the right side of this.

There's one more thing.

She's an alcoholic.

She's drinking heavily on the job

and it's getting out of control.

Erica Myles met with Peter Koscielny

and personally solicited the donation.

Here are the files that show the transfer.

And it'd be good to start leaking it.

Understood.

Well, the networks are increasing coverage

which will mean more donors

which will be crucial for Ohio...

Can I talk to you for a second?

I've got to go. Call you back.

- What is it? - Look, uh...

I don't want to be an alarmist

but I've been hearing rumors about Erica.

Aside from that mess with the Attorney General

the FBI is apparently looking into the donation

Erica solicited from Peter Koscielny.

Erica!

We need to talk.

What is it?

I just spoke with Sam Perez.

He's hearing rumors that the FBI

is looking into the Koscielny donation.

- What? - Are we at risk?

No, of course not. I vetted him. He's clean.

- Are you sure? - One thousand percent.

Then why are people talking?

I have no idea. People talk all the time.

Well, you might want to find out.

I'll let her know that you called.

I know. That's the best I can do.

Yes, I passed that along, and she will get back to you

as soon as she can. Yes...

I need to speak with you in my office, now.

She'll get back to you.

Shut the door.

What do you know about Martin Hoban?

Nothing. Who is he?

Is he behind Citizens First?

Did anyone ask you about him?

No.

- No one? - No, no one.

Are you telling the truth?

Yes. What's going on? You're scaring me.

Apparently, the FBI

are looking into the Koscielny donation.

Oh, my God.

And if they find out who he is

I'm gonna be in a lot of trouble.

Who is he?

I can't tell you, but if they contact you

don't mention him or the re-registration.

- Nothing. - Okay.

You can't say anything.

I won't. Don't worry.

Okay.

Thanks.

Did anyone else contact you about Martin Hoban?

No one. Why?

Apparently, the FBI are looking into the donation.

If they contact you, please don't tell them

that I asked you to look into him.

I can't do that. That would be illegal.

Come on, Matt. No one has to know.

If you keep it to yourself, they'll move on.

I already told you, I can't do that.

And maybe it's better if you find someone else to work with.

I don't think I can help you anymore.

- Matt... - I'm sorry.

I have to go.

Goodbye, Erica.

You look well.

I am.

You look tired.

I'm not sleeping...

...well these days.

Got some problems at work, and Darya and I

parted ways for good.

- What happened? - I don't know.

We realized it just wasn't gonna work.

I guess we really never loved each other.

I'm sorry to hear that.

- Don't be. - Excuse me.

Hi there.

At 8:00? That's fine.

I'm really looking forward to seeing you.

That sounds wonderful. See you soon.

Bye.

Are you still pregnant?

No. I had an abortion.

- Are you okay? - Yes.

Maybe we can try again one day.

I'd really like a child together.

Don't. I have to go. I'm meeting a client soon.

Perhaps we could have dinner one night?

I'm very busy. I have to go.

Can I call you?

I-I won't have time. Good luck with work.

- Anna... - Why are you here?

Because I love you.

And I'm so sorry that I hurt you.

I... hate myself for that.

Please give us another chance.

I know that we can make it work

and that we can be happy. I know that.

Leave me alone.

Please!

I'm sorry.

What do you want?

Just lie with me.

Did you miss me?

I missed you.

Have a seat.

I wanna talk to you about Erica.

Okay.

I've been hearing rumors about her.

Serious ones. You work closely with her.

Yes, I do.

What do you know about Peter Koscielny?

I don't know anything except

that he gave us twenty-five million dollars.

Why?

I just need to know what's going on.

I'm going to need some incentive.

What do you want?

I hear Melissa Daniels might be leaving.

I want to be considered for her position.

Okay.

That twenty-five million dollar donation

from Peter Koscielny was actually just a front

for Martin Hoban, a Canadian businessman

with substantial holdings in the oil and gas

industry in Alberta.

Instead of reporting it, Erica tried to bury it.

How?

She told me to delete all records of her interactions

with Koscielny and did the same herself.

Oh, and when I went to her house

I found her blind drunk, and was forced to shower her half-naked

because she could barely stand.

She's a trainwreck.

- It's not working. - Here.

Let me try mine.

Thanks.

Where's Jim? Do you know where he is?

No. I haven't seen him since this morning.

I think he may out for the day, but I'm not sure.

- He isn't happy at Craswell. - I know he'd agree to a meeting.

What's going on? Why is my office locked?

Why doesn't my key card work?

Can you give us a minute?

Are you gonna tell me?

Who are you calling? Security?

Why are you calling security? Why are you calling security?

What's the matter, you can't do your dirty work by yourself?

You got to call daddy to come and fucking help you?

You've been terminated.

- On what grounds? - Incompetence.

Insubordination, unauthorized absences

and possible criminal behavior.

What criminal behavior? What are you talking about?

- Don't embarrass yourself. - What are you talking about?

Mr. Simons.

What criminal behavior?

We'll send you your personal belongings

and you'll be hearing from our attorneys.

Fuck you!

- MARDIAN, what's going on? - Keep walking.

- Why am I being shut out? - Can't talk about it.

Are the FBI coming after me?

Where did Perez hear those rumors?

Who's he been talking to?

Jim, please!

Are they coming after me?

Yes.

What do they know? Did you speak with them?

What do they know?

What did you tell them?

- What did you tell them? - Back off!

Erica, we spoke on the phone.

- I'm Brent Crone. - Hi.

Noah's gonna meet us in the conference room.

Can I get you a water or something?

- Uh, no, I'm good. Thanks. - Okay.

What am I facing?

I really advise against

speculating at this point.

Just tell me.

What's the worst case scenario?

If, and again, this is highly speculative

but if they charge you with both soliciting

and receiving a donation in violation

of the Federal Election Campaign Act and convict you

you could be facing up to 10 years in a federal prison.

But it is way too early in the process

to be making any assumptions.

They haven't even charged you with anything.

Let's just take it one step at a time.

Let me call over to the FBI and see what they have, if anything.

I don't know what I'm gonna do if anyone

looks into that transaction, I'm fucked.

Maybe it is just a rumor.

But what if it's not? What if it's true?

It will end my career, I could go to prison.

I'm sure even you can understand that.

What is that supposed to mean?

Don't make this about you. Not now.

I'm fucked! What am I gonna do?

You know, I used to admire you.

I thought you were strong

but now I realize how weak you really are.

You whine like a child.

You created this mess, why don't you solve it

instead of drinking yourself to death?

Because there isn't a solution.

Please don't start. Please.

Not now, I can't take it now.

I know I've got my faults and I haven't

treated you well, but I...

- I love you. - You hate me.

Just like you hate yourself. You're full of hate.

No! It's not true. I love you.

I adore you.

You stink.

Kiss me.

There's nothing there.

I won't remember you.

I never remember anything that hurts me.

- You okay? - Yeah, I'm fine.

Just remember you're here on your own accord.

Don't react, say as little as possible.

We just need to see what they have. That's it.

Okay.

Is it safe to assume that in your role as Finance Director

you are aware that soliciting donations or accepting donations

from a foreign individual or entity are federal crimes?

Yes.

What's your relationship with Martin Hoban?

I don't know him.

- Have you ever met him? - No.

Ever spoken to him or had

any correspondence with him at all?

No.

Did you personally solicit a donation

from him on behalf of Right To Action?

- No. - Are you sure?

My client already responded.

Did Right To Action accept

a donation from Citizens First

a company controlled by Martin Hoban?

I'd have to check my records.

You don't recall if Citizens First

made a twenty-five million dollar donation

on October 4th

three and a half weeks ago?

You're badgering her.

It's a straightforward question.

And she already responded.

I remind you, Miss Myles came in here voluntarily

and she's fully cooperating with you.

- Do you know a Sandra Fuchs? - Yes.

- In what capacity? - She's my assistant.

- At Right To Action? - Yes.

Do you recall having a conversation with her

this past Tuesday about Martin Hoban

and a donation that he made to Right To Action?

No.

Shut the door.

What do you know about Martin Hoban?

Nothing. Who is he?

Is he behind Citizens First?

Did anyone ask you about him?

No.

- No one? - No, no one.

Are you telling the truth?

- Yes. What's going on? - You're scaring me.

Apparently, the FBI

are looking into the Koscielny donation.

Oh, my God.

And if they find out who he is

I'm gonna be in a lot of trouble.

Who is he?

I can't tell you, but if they contact you

don't mention him or the re-registration. Nothing.

- Okay. - You can't say anything.

I won't, don't worry.

Okay. Thanks.

I need to use the restroom.

I'll be right back.

701 Connecticut Avenue.
