NARRATOR: Previously, on Designated Survivor...

It looks like the House is gonna pass the gun control bill.

Speaker Hookstraten came through.

Now, I may be new to the Hill, but so is everybody else.

You're last of the old guard around here, Madam Speaker.

So get on board or step aside.

There is a connection between MacLeish and Lozano.

And this FBI Agent, Hannah Wells, was onto it!

JAY: You're interested in Nestor Lozano. So are we.

You got my attention.

Someone is feeding Abe Leonard classified information,

and we need to find out who.

This is a manifesto, Jason. "Pax Americana.

"An American empire to replace

"our own constitutional government."

(RADIO CHATTER)

Oh, my God! It's Lozano.

(SIGHS) It can't be.

Lozano's dead.

Let me see that.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

Treeline!

HANNAH: Go, go, go!

(MAN YELLING)

(PEOPLE YELLING)

(MULTIPLE GUNSHOTS)

MALE VOICE: Don't let them get away!

(MULTIPLE GUNSHOTS)

(SIGHS)

Oh, forget this.

(PHONE RINGS)

I thought we said 11. It's almost two.

JAY: Just testing your resolve.

Three whole hours. Is that all the truth is worth to you?

Is that what you're gonna give me? The truth?

JAY: The tip I gave you on Hannah Wells paid off didn't it?

All right, what do you got for me now?

JAY: Another piece of the puzzle.

Well, why not the whole thing?

JAY: That's not how this works. I'm not on the record here.

You need to find the story yourself.

And I need to know I can trust you.

You gotta be kidding me. I've never burned a source in my life.

I lost my job at the Herald

'cause I wouldn't give up my sources.

JAY: The White House is covering up the truth.

- Truth about what? - JAY: The Capitol bombing.

Hannah WeHs's boss was the last person

to see Majfd Nasser alive.

Jason Atwood. Check him out.

Wait, wait! Ah!

(CAR STARTING)

How the hell is Lozano still alive?

Holy! Jason, are you hit?

(GROANING)

- Oh, God. I gotta get you to a hospital. - It can wait.

Dammit!

NEWS ANCHOR: Today marks a milestone

for the Kirkman administration

as he signs his gun control bill into law.

Igniting hopes that this, unelected, independent president

can break the partisan gridlock

that's paralyzed Congress for years.

FEMALE NEWS ANCHOR: There's another big winner today.

Speaker of the House Hookstraten,

the moderate Republican, who went out on a limb

supporting the White House on this.

These two have got to be feeling good this morning.

Madam Speaker,

this could not have been accomplished without you.

Thank you.

Thank you, sir.

(CAMERAS CLICKING)

I don't think my hand has shaken this much

since I signed my first mortgage!

(ALL LAUGHING)

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

(GROANS)

No dice.

What do you mean?

The plate's from a White House pool of vehicles.

White House?

- You're sure? - MAN: That's what it says.

- I need to get a name. - Hundreds of people work there.

Any one of them could have access.

Hey, I paid you to get a name.

You paid me to run a plate.

Oh, come on.

(STUTTERING)

I should at least get a discount!

White House.

-(PEOPLE CHATTERING) -(PHONE RINGING)

.l-ley- .l-ley-

- Hey, hey! Big win today! - Yeah, for all of us.

Yeah, we're trending. Hashtag "gun control wins."

We, uh, we get you back in the West Wing with the new VP?

- Ask her. - What is it?

(PHONE RINGING)

- No comment. - No comment necessary.

The Speaker swung the vote for POTUS,

creating a true bipartisan alliance.

Yeah, tri-partisan alliance. You had Democrats,

Moderate Republicans, and Independents.

I stand corrected. A true tri-partisan alliance.

Now who wouldn't want to keep that going

with Hookstraten as VP?

Well, the polls are in. America wants this.

And the president will make up his mind when he's ready.

(SIGHS) Yeah, but what's your opinion, really?

Hookstraten said she'd deliver the vote and she did.

That's it?

You find that evasive? I find that evasive.

- AARON: Absolutely. - That's evasive. I want a straight answer.

Look, we all know that the relationship between POTUS

and the Speaker hasn't always been easy.

He's a consensus-builder, and she's a...

Hey, you watch it.

Bulldog is what I was gonna say.

That's fair.

Yeah, but Kirkman needs a bulldog,

especially one who controls

-a majority in the House. - He needs allies,

but he also needs someone he can trust.

Hmm. So, you're saying you don't find her to be trustworthy?

Okay, what is this, a press conference?

I am enjoying being on the other side of the podium for once.

EMILY: Of course you are.

All I'm saying is that she's a politician and he's not.

Well, opposites attract.

Sometimes.

(PHONE RINGING)

TOM: I have to be honest,

when I first took office, I had my doubts.

I didn't know if I could trust you

and I knew you didn't trust me.

I trusted you were doing your best.

Ha, I believe that.

Well, let's just say you didn't have a lot of faith

in what my best could be.

Oh, you were an unknown quantity, Mr. President.

And I just wanted to make sure

the best interests of the country...

-were being protected. - I know.

I hope I passed the test.

I hope I did.

We have a lot of momentum right now.

Together as a team, we managed to cross

the bipartisan divide for the bill.

You did your job quickly and efficiently.

I was really impressed.

I have sharp elbows when I'm fighting

for something I believe in.

Ha. Well, we can certainly use your sharp elbows

when rolling out our new legislative agenda.

But, Kimble,

I think we've a chance to do something really special here...

beyond policy.

I would like my daughter

tO see a woman become

Vice President of the United States.

Sir.

So would I.

Good. We'll start the formal vetting process.

As soon as you clear that, we'll make a public statement.

I'm excited for both of us.

- Thank you, sir. - No, thank you. Come on.

NEWS ANCHOR: Today's legislation deals a serious blow

to Senator Jack Bowman,

who clearly underestimated the president's ability

to build a successful coalition in the House of Representatives.

Senator, Liam Price to see you.

Send him in.

Senator, I know what a busy schedule you have.

May I also say how much I admired

your stance on the gun control bill.

You said have something for me?

(PHONE RINGING IN THE DISTANCE)

Close the door.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

MIKE: And you're sure it was him?

Yeah, it was him.

From one sighting,

at 130 yards out, through a night vision scope?

I know what I saw. Atwood saw him, too.

MIKE: Where is Atwood?

He's recovering, he took a round in his arm.

What about Lozano?

- You tracked the helicopter? - Tail number was blacked out.

And there's no FAA air traffic control in the area.

It's like he flew into a vacuum.

Did we secure the munitions at least?

The task force was on ground

two hours after Hannah called it in.

They secured the silo, but everyone was gone.

So if Lozano's alive,

then who did the FBI take down

after the attempt on the president?

CORONER: Here's your boy.

Crime report said he was holding a grenade.

HANNAH: And what did the shrapnel tell you?

That he was less than

three feet away before he threw it.

So it was intentional.

Either that or he was shot before he could throw it.

How'd you l.D. him?

Prints on the left hand were intact.

Lower mandible too. Did the trick.

Do you mind, if I get a set of prints for myself?

Knock yourself out.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

(PHONE RINGS)

Aaron Shore.

DAN: It's Dan Pyne from Politico.

Hey Dan, what's going on?

DAN: We're going with a story about Speaker Hookstraten.

Wanted to give you guys a chance to comment.

Okay, what's the story?

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

LAURA: Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Did you see what just hit Politico?

No.

(TYPING)

This is bad, right?

No, this is really bad.

MALE VOICE: Alright yeah, just give me two seconds...

- Hey. - Hey. You heard?

Yeah, Aaron gave me a heads-up.

- AVA: Mr. President. - TOM: Thank you, Ava.

Am I missing something here? Because as far as I can tell,

Kimble took a trip to Turkey...

during her first year in Congress.

Six months later, co-signed a bill

providing them with further military assistance.

Turkey's been a member of NATO since 1952,

so this is pretty standard practice. What's the big deal?

It's the optics, sir. It appears as though

she's accepting gifts in return for military favors.

I don't care about the optics.

There's no sign of malfeasance here.

No sir, but it's implied,

and this is a town that loves to connect the dots.

She stayed in hotel suites in Ankara and Istanbul

and had lavish meals.

What was she supposed to do, check herself into a cell

and survive on bread and water?

The military aid package included the latest

in digital surveillance technology.

And at the time, Pentagon was strongly advising

against giving it to Turkey.

It was a controversial measure. It only passed by four votes.

Everyone on that trip voted in favor of it.

Circumstantial at best. When can I talk to her?

- I'll set it up. - TOM: Okay. Thank you both.

(SIREN WAILING)

- TOM: Mike, what is it? - MIKE: It's about Nestor Lozano.

Sir, there's a possibility that he's alive.

What?

How is that even possible?

Agent Wells thinks she spotted him in North Dakota.

If she's right, who did the FBI kill?

Wells and Foerstel, they're investigating that now.

As a precaution, we're gonna switch up your schedule

and run more decoy motorcades.

I'm not worried about me. What about Alex and the kids?

We're doing the same at Camp David

along with increased perimeter security.

Sir, they won't even notice.

- Okay. Thank you, Mike. - MIKE: Thank you, sir.

BOWMAN: No, that's good. That sounds like

a win-win for everybody.

AARON: Senator Bowman. Listen,

let me know when you have Goodman on board,

we'll see we can give up pushing out of committee.

Now, if this has something to do

with your new boss, I have nothing to say.

She didn't do anything wrong.

Oh, then there's nothing for her to worry about, is there?

Yeah, except you can't un-ring a bell, Senator.

We both know an accusation is just as bad as a conviction.

I'm sorry, I'm having a really hard time

understanding what any of this has to do with me.

What, you're saying it's a coincidence

that right when she beats you,

on the gun control bill, that this hits Politico?

You're not White House Chief of Staff anymore, Shore.

I'd watch your mouth.

Nobody from my office gave that story to Politico.

And you expect me to believe that?

I don't give a damn what you believe.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

MIKE: It's a match.

Yeah, but the body in the morgue isn't Lozano's.

There's enough left of his face to tell that.

But there's a positive l.D. Who screwed up?

No one did. Fingerprints and dental records matched.

Someone hacked the IAFIS database.

They switched Lozano's records with the dead man's.

You realize what you're saying?

The clearance level it would take to pull that off?

- JOHN: Yes. - Well, we've known for awhile

that someone in the White House

made Kirkman designated survivor.

Yeah, we thought it was someone who

probably died in the Capitol bombing.

I think it's time that we consider that

this person may still be active.

You know how it works at the Bureau.

I can't say anything about the death of Majid Nassar.

It's an open investigation.

All right, but you know Deputy Director Atwood, right?

SLOAN: I haven't seen him in a while.

Well, what does that mean?

Means I haven't seen him in a while.

What, he's not there anymore?

- I didn't say that. - What, you implied it.

- No, I didn't. - Well was he canned, is that it?

You're a disgrace you know that? You're worse than Atwood.

Whoa, whoa. Wait. Wait a minute. What does that mean?

- Don't call me anymore. - What does that mean?

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

MALE VOICE: Just a couple more.

Okay, great.

Gentlemen, I want to thank you for your service.

And I promise we will look at the numbers for those

body cameras as soon as possible.

- Thank you, Mr. President. - Thank you, gentlemen.

(CHATTERING)

- Sir... Speaker Hookstraten. - TOM: Great. Madam Speaker.

- Mr. President. - Well,

this afternoon took a turn, didn't it?

- Yes, sir. - Please.

Thank you. I just wanted to assure you that

the trip I took and the bill I co-sponsored were

-completely unrelated. - Kimble, I believe you.

The trip was largely agricultural.

Drip irrigation. Things like that.

I thought it would be useful for my constituents.

- And the bill? - I co-sponsored it

with Representative Holden of Ohio,

former Chair of the Armed Services Committee.

I heard he was a good man.

He was my mentor.

He believed the aid package was necessary to protect

American personnel at Incirlik Air Base.

And a majority of Congress

agreed with him as it turned out.

Well, just tell people what you told me.

You have a ton of supporters.

It's a whole new ballgame out there, sir.

The new Senate is like the old Senate. Conventional.

They were all appointed to replace their predecessors.

But the House, they were all elected.

And they're young-

The youngest House in U.S. history.

And I'm old guard, sir.

(LAUGHS)

They don't see me as their legitimate Speaker.

I got here the same way you did. By surviving.

Well, that's not fair or true.

You were elected. You were a sewing Congresswoman.

Besides, if they wanted to replace you,

they could've done it a while ago.

They were finding their feet.

And now they have their excuse to replace me.

- Because of Senator Bowman. - He's denying it,

but who benefits most from this?

I'm his biggest rival in the party.

Son of a bitch.

(DOOR OPENS)

I'm sorry to interrupt.

What is it?

I thought you'd both want to hear.

The House Ethics Committee

just announced that they're opening

an investigation into the Speaker.

Jay Whitaker, Homeland Security Advisor.

Thank you for meeting me.

I've put together that video you asked for.

We were able to reconstruct

Lozano's path from the PLC Building,

where the assassination attempt took place,

to the Annapolis facility where he was taken down.

This is Lozano exiting the PLC Building.

This is the camera that covers the main entrance.

This camera covers the side, and you see him walking there.

He walks two blocks north to Union Station.

Then we got him on camera passing an ATM machine.

Next, we pick him up in the parking garage

where he jacked the minivan.

We have the minivan on constant camera surveillance

all the way out of the city.

- It's all on the flash drive. - Good.

JAY: Here's where Maryland State Police

spot him entering Annapolis.

The unit attempts to pull him over,

which leads to a high-speed pursuit.

But Lozano manages to elude them.

Then he flees on foot into the marine storage facility.

At this point,

Maryland State Police set up perimeter

and wait for the FBI to show up.

This is how that plays out.

And that flash, is that the grenade going off?

Yes. At first, we thought

he was shot before he could throw it, but...

the Coroner's report was inconclusive.

He may have detonated it deliberately.

From what I've read, Lozano was a total soldier.

Well, this is very impressive, thank you.

It's all on here, including the highway cams, as I said.

This is gonna help us a lot

with the rest of our investigation.

I'm just glad we caught the son of a bitch.

Yeah...

me too.

-(PHONE RINGING) -(PEOPLE CHATTERING)

Hey, Dan.

Shore.

- Nice smear job. - Ah, give me a break.

I called you for a comment.

Yeah. And you buried it under four graphs of innuendo.

Look, I want to see both sides of the story.

The Speaker's willing to sit with you. An exclusive.

I already reported that she denies any wrongdoing.

Yeah, but it's not the same as letting her

tell her side of the story.

She can tell the Ethics Committee.

Dan you could at least give her the same platform

you gave to Bowman.

Look, I didn't give Bowman anything.

For your information,

there's lots of people gunning for your boss.

NEWS ANCHOR: In the latest scandal to hit Washington,

the House Ethics Committee

has opened an investigation

into Speaker of the House Hookstraten,

for alleged improprieties involving a military aid package

to Turkey 12 years ago.

Thank God we didn't go public with your choice.

(SIGHS) Maybe we should.

No, sir, this is not the time to double down.

We need to cut her loose now.

Kimble told me she didn't do

anything wrong and I believe her.

If you nominate her at this point,

you will destroy all of the political capital

we've worked so hard to gain.

I don't believe that's necessarily true.

We can take our case to the American people.

But, sir, your battle isn't with the American people.

It's with Congress.

And you'll lose.

(SIGHS) I'm sorry.

She's the right choice and I'm not gonna back down.

Okay.

I'll stay in contact with Aaron.

Get a sense of where things stand with the Committee.

I also want Seth to start working on a press release.

I want to remind the American people of what we've just accomplished here.

And let them know that

Speaker Hookstraten is our bridge

across that bipartisan divide.

What about finding a surrogate to author an op-ed?

That's a good idea.

Let's see what names we can attach to it.

- We'll do everything we can. - TOM: Thank you.

TODD: The reservation's in your name.

The Ambassador's a fan of Riesling, so I had them put aside

a bottle of 14 Emmerich Knoll.

All right, what about that tweet?

"If these allegations prove true,

"it'll be a damn shame for Speaker Hookstraten

and the country."

Good. Send it.

Just make sure not to comment on the investigation per se.

Did you see Bowman's latest tweet?

Oh, yeah, pretty transparent.

- Now, the release, we need to talk... - Yeah, I got it.

Uh, just a general statement of support for a woman with a long record

of outstanding service to the country.

- Couldn't have said it better myself. - Yeah, that's why

I'm the Press Secretary. I'll push it out to the briefing room list.

Okay, just make sure it's the first thing they read. And the op-ed?

Yeah. Uh, let me write it first, then we can see who we can drum up to sign it.

(PHONE RINGING)

Swing big, okay?

- He really wants this to happen. - Yup.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

(BELLS JINGLING)

Jason Atwood, right?

Abe Leonard, New York Standard. You got a minute?

Nope.

What happened?

Don't tell me it was from a shaving accident.

Hey, I'm not looking for trouble.

I just got a few questions about Majid Nassar.

- Excuse me, can I have a check please? - WAITRESS: Right away, sir.

You were acting Deputy Director of the FBI,

lead investigator of Capitol bombing, right?

Come on, that's public record. I'm just trying to find out what happened next.

- Why'd they fire you? - I resigned.

Well, a White House source tells me different.

This have anything to do with your son?

Don't you ever... talk about my son.

Okay, all right. I'm sorry.

I'm just trying...

(INDISTINCT CHATTERING)

First, you're leading the bombing investigation,

then you see Nassar die the day

he's in custody, then your son gets kidnapped.

(GRUNTS)

OM!

I told you... don't mention my son.

Aah. My bad. (PANTING)

Just want to know what happened to Majid Nassar?

You're a good guy or a bad guy?

(CAR STARTS)

KIMBLE: Got it. Thanks, John.

House Ethics Committee.

They wanna see me tomorrow.

(SCOFFS) That was fast.

- Like a firing squad. - AARON: Yup.

- How'd it go? - Well, it didn't come from Bowman.

In that case, I might have a good idea where it did come from.

- Who? - I want to check it out first.

It's funny, yesterday I was talking about the vice presidency. And...

today, I'm fighting for my political life.

JASON: How the hell did he know I was at the prison when Nassar got killed?

There has to be a leak, Hannah.

Leonard said he has a source at the White House.

We're looking into it, believe me. We just have to be really careful.

So, what am I supposed to do?

Stay at home while all this goes down?

- Look, I need to help. - You can't.

- What do you mean, I can't? - You...

You can't. You can't shoot a gun. You can't even drive a car.

I need you to heal right now, Jason.

Go and find somewhere to stay off the grid.

Like go hide somewhere? Look, I don't hide.

I cannot be worrying about you

-when all this is going on. But I do! - You don't have to worry about me.

You need backup.

- I'm gonna go it alone for now. - What?

It's better than widening our circle.

Look, Jason...

I know it's hard for you to take a back seat.

You gotta trust me. It's gonna be okay.

You remember your first time going through a door?

You think, I forgot East Baltimore.

And you almost threw up in the hallway.

I think I did, a little.

You saw me and you told me to calm down.

You said everything was gonna be okay.

I'm gonna trust you.

(TELEVISION PLAYING)

Hey. I love the op-ed piece.

Oh, thanks. You want to put your name on it?

Problems?

Uh, sent it to six people. They all said no.

Really? I thought that being able to take credit for a piece

of your writing would be incentive enough.

- I'm serious. - It's not the quality of the piece.

It's that nobody wants to stick their necks out for a dead duck.

-(SIGHS) It's that bad, huh? - Look, not to mix metaphors,

but there's blood in the water, Emily. The people I've sent this know that.

Okay. Well, keep trying.

- Yeah. Big swings, right? - Exactly.

Liam Price to see you.

- Thank you, Kristie. Send him in. - Come on in, Mr. Price.

Speaker Hookstraten.

Liam.

How long has it been?

So you figured it out.

It wasn't that hard.

I thought who worked for me 12 years ago,

that'd want to stab me in the back today?

(SCOFFS) You fired me.

You were taking money from lobbyists.

And if I recall, I didn't fire you. I gave you the chance to resign.

Well, now you will have that same option.

(CHUCKLES)

So let me guess. You've been to Bowman's office.

He'll never make it to the White House.

We'll see.

I should have gone public with you 12 years ago, Liam,

fed you to the wolves.

Too late now.

Not really.

I still have the evidence against you, Liam.

And now...

Senator Bowman does too.

You know, I doubt any presidential hopeful would want

anything to do with a lying, unscrupulous punk like you.

You can go now, Liam.

(DOOR SHUTS)

It is very convincing when you first look at it.

(COMPUTER BEEPS)

Here is Lozano, supposedly leaving the PLC Building

after the assassination attempt.

But, look. His face is always down,

away from the surveillance cameras, right? His back is turned. His collar's up.

Now, look at the street.

Same deal. Could be Lozano, but who knows?

Now, the parking garage.

We're on his back the whole time.

It's like he knows where the cameras are.

Exactly.

And the next time we get a good look at him...

(TYPING)

...he's crossing from the car to the storage facility.

- Right. There's no way to tell. - Right.

So, when did they make the switch?

Here is the footage from the PLC Building,

after the shooting.

And now this...

is the next morning.

Twenty hours and 17 minutes after that.

Long after the building has been cleared, long after the suspect has been shot dead,

someone...

leaves the building.

- Would you like me to zoom in? - Please.

Lozano never left the building that day.

He waited till the coast was clear.

He left the next day.

So it's true.

MIKE: Lozano was alive, sir.

And Agent Wells is absolutely positive?

Yes, sir.

The man the FBI killed was a decoy.

And was willing to sacrifice his life to help Lozano escape.

Sacrifice his life for what?

And why?

How many more of them are out there?

(DOOR OPENING)

Good news.

We got a hit on the dead guy's prints.

Desmond Legarth. ATF picked him up in 2005

on a gun possession charge. I just sent you the file.

(BEEPING)

This guy fell off the grid six years ago.

Before that, he was Army Infantry.

His last known employment

-was as a small arms instructor for... - Browning Reed.

Financial forensics did a full workup on him.

He took out a loan for his mother's house in 2003.

You know who co-signed that loan?

The C.E.O. of Browning Reed.

- HANNAH: Patrick Lloyd? - JOHN: Yeah.

I'll be back.

Where are you going?

TOM: Where are we at with the op-ed?

Whose names are attached?

Reagan Whithorne, sir.

EMILY: Former one term congressman from Arkansas.

- That's it? Who's rolling it out? - The Sentinel.

(GROANS)

- I'm sorry, Mr. President. - It's the best we could do.

It's not your fault. It's a good piece of writing, Seth.

- Thank you. - What's the word from Aaron?

Speaker Hookstraten appears before the Ethics Committee tomorrow.

They're gonna go after her hard. Looks like she was right

about the younger generation wanting to replace her.

That's the information I have also.

It may not be possible to save her.

You know what? Hell with it. Run the op-ed, now.

EMILY: Yes, sir. Okay.

(HONKING)

(SIGHS)

I'm good, thanks.

Long time.

- I've been busy. - I've noticed.

So why are you looking for Patrick Lloyd?

It's a two-way street.

You want intel from the Agency, I get intel from the Bureau.

Beck,

I've never denied you anything when you've asked for it.

You don't need to know why I'm looking for Lloyd.

I met him a few times.

Scary dude.

Spent 16 years in Special Forces.

Completed more classified missions than anyone in his unit.

In 2000, he inherited a fortune from his father's business.

Put it all into Browning Reed.

Okay.

After 9/11, he won over two billion in government contracts.

Super patriot. A friend to politicians and generals.

Until things went south.

Yeah, I heard, scandals and lawsuits.

Company went under.

Yeah, but not because he couldn't afford it.

Because he felt betrayed by his own government.

He turned.

Since he dissolved the company,

Lloyd's become a political player.

He started behind the scenes, but now he's...

making more public appearances now.

Very big on the alt-right circuit, but he makes those guys look liberals.

Scary thing is,

he's got the IQ and the money to back up his views.

So where do we find him?

He's been hiding in plain sight the whole time.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

Oh! We have visitors.

Will you take that for me, please? Thank you.

Hey there.

LLOYD: (LAUGHS) FBI? Or, uh, Homeland?

What gave us away?

Uh, shoes, the walk...

the fact that federal agents raided a piece of property that was owned

by my former company a few nights ago. Take your pick.

FBI.

Ah!

I'm Agent Foerstel. This is Agent Wells.

So how about we talk about that silo?

And the munitions you were keeping there.

Certainly. They're Russian-made land mines. 300,000 of them,

flooded the market after Russia pulled out of Afghanistan.

Browning Reed bought them, legally.

And used them for our demining training.

My attorney... has all the import permits on file.

- Here's his card. - Hmm.

Though, I expect he'll contact you first,

once he's pulled together the charges for the illegal search and seizure.

What about Desmond Legarth?

- Who's that? - You bought his mother a house.

- You don't remember his name? - Oh! Well, if I did that,

then I assume he must've worked for me.

I gave loans to hundreds of my employees over the years, most of them veterans,

ignored by the country they sewed.

See, I won't ignore them.

And I won't fail our ancestors

by allowing America to become a broken system of oppression.

What did Mr. Legarth do?

He's a person of interest in an ongoing investigation.

Well, you must be searching in the dark if you're talking to me.

Well, we're not reading tea leaves, Mr. Lloyd. Fact is, Browning Reed

keeps coming up in connection to our case.

Browning Reed no longer exists.

Uh, yet they still hold titles to properties and munitions.

Liquidating a billion dollar business takes time, Agent Foerstel.

Something that someone on a government salary might have trouble understanding.

If you want to talk again, please, feel free to contact my attorney.

Charming.

(CAR ENGINE REVS UP)

(SIGHS)

What?

"We have failed our ancestors by allowing America

"to become a broken system of oppression.

"It is our job to take back America from the corrupt leaders

"who seek to take our land and money."

Everything he's saying, it's all there.

(DOOR LOCK BEEPS)

FOERSTEL: Go home. It's late.

Did you put eyes on Lloyd?

Yes, 24/7.

And I'm betting he's very well aware of it.

It's fine. Maybe it'll slow him down.

(SIGHS)

Look, if you're right...

if he's the guy behind this, it's gonna be just like MacLeish.

Knowing and proving are two very different things.

And Lloyd is ten times more dangerous.

He is protected in every way, physically, financially, legally.

- No one is above the law. - Yes, I get that,

but it's gonna be very difficult to catch him with dirty hands.

We're gonna have to work our way through his whole organization.

His organization?

What organization?

I was down there in North Dakota. I saw them. They vanished.

They're everywhere and nowhere.

They are the waitress at the restaurant down the road.

They're your accountant.

We're... (SIGHS)

- We're not gonna flush them out. - Okay, look,

we'll hit this again in the morning, okay?

You need to get some rest. Go home.

Yeah. I'm just, I'm in no rush to get back to the fleabag motel.

Get some rest.

I will.

Okay.

(DOOR SHUTS)

- Hey, Jason. It's me. - JASON: Hey. What's going on?

Look, I know I told you to lay low, but I need your help.

JASON: Name it. What do you need?

Patrick Lloyd.

(PHONE RINGS)

- Hello? - Little P, how are you?

(CHUCKLES) Hey, Daddy.

I miss you.

I miss you more than anything in the world.

- Me too. - Where's Mommy?

PENNY: Upstairs.

Helping Leo with his homework.

- Want me to go get her? - TOM: No.

No. I want to talk to you.

Okay.

(SIGHS)

Did you have fun with your tutor today?

Yeah. She lets me watch the news. I saw you on TV.

You did?

They said you might pick that lady as your vice president.

The one you gave the pen to.

Did you know she'd be the first girl vice president?

Yeah, I did.

You think that's cool?

Yeah.

Me, too.

(GASPS)

JAY: Over here.

That's far enough.

What did you learn?

Atwood was fired.

Some agents are calling him a disgrace.

- JAY: And what does that tell you? - ABE: I don't know,

but it's got something to do with Majid Nassar.

JAY: Check the White House log for the day after Nassar was killed.

- The White House log? - JAY: I'm leaving now.

- Don't follow me. - Well...

(DIAL TONE RINGING)

(PHONE RINGING)

- Yeah? - JAY: How'd it go?

Clockwork.

Good. We're back on track.
