[NARRATOR] Previously, on Graves.

Affair? That's just the tip of the iceberg

for Margaret Graves.

And your secret shame, Olivia, fits rather neatly

into my wheelhouse.

Dr. Timothy McCall.

I chose him very carefully for you, doll.

They're trying to turn my life into an ABC Afterschool Special.

[SAMANTHA] I really liked you.

[ISAIAH] I'm sorry, Sammy.

I'm leaving first thing in the morning.

I need a change of scenery, you know?

See, my dad, he left before I was born,

so growing up, when things got tough,

I always came back to that picture of you holding me up.

[TV ANCHOR] Margaret Graves is projected to win

the Republican Party's nomination for Senate.

She'll face Jerry North in the general election.

[MAN] This book you're writing, what's the purpose?

Answers. Who I am, who I became.

[TYPING]

Shiloh.

[SIGHS]

- Sir? - Huh?

Oh, Jesus.

- You scared me. - You have to see this.

- What? - [WOMAN ON TV] Hail to the former chief.

Production is set to begin on the biopic

of President Richard Graves.

The feature film has finally, after an exhaustive search,

found its star.

- Jesus. - Just...

Jesse Enright has been tapped to play President Graves,

a role he feels he was born to portray.

Richard Graves is such a complicated character.

Some people love him, some people hate him.

I just want to find the humanity in the man, you know?

To become him.

- [TURNS TV OFF] - This idiot

thinks he can play me?

They're never gonna get it right.

Right, right, which is why... and hear me out...

I think that you should meet him.

- Meet him? - Mm-hmm.

Oh, screw that. I'm going to bed.

This actor wants to know what it was like to be you.

What it is to be a president.

Don't we want him to understand?

Isn't that what we've been doing?

What you've been doing?

I mean, you're writing a new book

because everyone has gotten it wrong.

This way, with this, you can start putting the pieces

of your past back together.

[SIGHS]

All right.

- He gets one day. - Yes, sir.

God, I hate motherfuckin' actors.

Sir, I'm so excited.

Jesse Enright meeting us here?

I feel like a pilgrim arriving at Mecca.

It's been so long.

[JESSE] It's a pleasure, Mr. President.

I just want you to know what an honor this is.

Spending the day with you, being here.

Where it all began.

[IMITATING GRAVES]: It's been so long

since I've stepped foot on this land.

Shiloh.

Oh, my God!

- Was that me? - Is that...?

It's uncanny, sir.

[IN NORMAL VOICE] I'm still working on the voice.

Your expressions and your mannerisms.

[AS GRAVES] Because I'm going to run for president, Maggie.

And no one is gonna fuckin' stop me.

Don't do that.

[IN NORMAL VOICE] Oh, cool, cool, cool.

- Let's go. - Yeah.

[WHISPERS] Amazing.

[OLIVIA] It was such a happy surprise.

Now, the last thing I want to do, Olivia,

is to ask you too personal a question.

Oh, come on, Natalie. That's why I'm here.

I'm an open book.

[NATALIE] Your marriage to William Rockefeller

ended just over a year ago.

People are talking, Liv. Is he the father of your baby?

No.

The father was...

Timothy McCall.

We met a few weeks before he left for Afghanistan

to help with the refugees.

He's a part of Doctors Without Borders.

I had just told Tim that I was pregnant.

A month later, I found out that he was killed.

Oh, my God. What an...

[DROPS REMOTE]

That was perfect.

[LAUGHS] That was perfect, Olivia.

I looked puffy.

Margaret, what did I tell you?

"Dead, I can use."

- Dead, I can use! - Jesus.

Okay, I should probably get ready for that charity thing.

You should do that.

Sweetheart, I can't thank you enough for doing this.

You look beautiful.

The last thing I feel right now is beautiful.

Olivia Graves's return to the world of charitable causes.

We should go over your game plan for the charity event, yeah?

Yeah. Respectfully, Mr. Campaign Person,

you're dancing the Hava Nagila into my social circle now.

I don't need you to explain a life to me

that I've already lived.

I can do this charity shit in my sleep.

Or no sleep, a hit of ecstasy and six or seven sake bombs.

I hate him.

[ANNOUNCER] Back to The Truth, with Jeremy Graves,

and special guest James Carville.

My mother is a [BLEEP] saint.

Oh, your mother, your shmother.

It's the same old crap from the same old Republican playbook.

This is the deal with you guys.

Everyone who disagrees with you is suddenly a racist

trotting out nonsense, while you end up

dividing the country in the name of intellectual dishonesty

masquerading as the high road.

You know, your little "anger for the sake of anger" shtick,

that's exactly why the country is so divided today.

Shtick? Really? Coming from you?

People are angry.

They bought your pack of lies,

and now they want their money back.

Anger for anger... There's no anger for anger's sake.

Look, no disrespect, but your breath stinks

from the river of bull[BLEEP] flowing out of your mouth, okay?

And we'll be right back.

[THEME MUSIC PLAYS]

So, after the break, debt ceiling?

Oh, go fuck yourself.

Oh, come on.

You got to grow a thicker snakeskin, James.

Look, rookie, everybody knows that you have this show

because Richard Graves was your daddy.

Or so they say.

Even that's a lie.

What? What are you talking about?

Jonathan Dalton is your daddy, man.

- You know that. - Ugh!

Congratulations, you can read fuckin' gossip magazines

and Internet bullshit.

Let me get this straight.

Jonathan Dalton and your sainted,

tainted mother, break up 275 days

before some bouncing little right-wing asshole

enters this world.

You're not fuckin' serious.

Look, Dalton's ex-wife, Stephanie,

very good friend of mine.

It's not a rumor. It's true.

[MAN] And we're back in three, two...

[THEME MUSIC PLAYS]

And we're back with James Carville.

_

Oh. [CHUCKLES]

Oh, this is my room.

[INHALES DEEPLY]

You can smell the musk of history in here.

I had forgot how small everything was.

Oh, I think this was actually the drawing

that was in that Ken Burns documentary they did of you.

I actually had a viewing party of it

for the college Republicans at ASU.

Very well attended, I should add.

Mr. President, there's a scene in the movie

that I'm struggling with.

Mind if I run it by you?

I don't read anything from a Hollywood hack.

W. was under his bed for a week

after that hit job Oliver Stone did.

Exactly, sir. I think it actually might be productive

to see where they're headed, so you can correct what's wrong.

- [GRUNTS] - Great. Thank you.

Amazing.

Dude, read it with me.

You do the Graves's father role.

Oh, my God. Well, yes.

Well, I actually did happen to play

a very convincing Tevye in Fiddler.

The Prescott Valley Tribune might have called it a triumph.

Um, but regretfully, Mr. Enright, though flattered,

I think I'm gonna have to pass.

[TOUR GUIDE] Right this way, folks. Absolutely no flash photography.

Got it?

[MARGARET] Okay, go ahead and play it.

This country has 18 ballistic missile submarines.

How many times can we blow up the world?

Now, does nobody else see this?

Or have I been taking crazy pills here?

You wanna talk about crime?

How about when regular working Joes like yourselves

can't buy a loaf of gluten for less than 5 bucks,

but Big Oil's getting handouts?

Now, is that highway robbery,

or am I taking crazy pills?

I wish just once,

someone had said, "Yes, Jer, you took the crazy pills."

Jerry North was always a pain in Richard's ass.

Jerry North is a genius.

Come on, Chris. He's a joke.

Christopher, please. Thank you.

Well, that joke has held the seat for over 30 years.

Everybody loves him. Young'uns, the oldies but goodies...

Yeah, Latino voters call him "Tio Jerry."

- They think that they love him. - Okay.

They think they love him.

They think they love him, because he tells them

what they want to hear!

Does everybody hear that?

And how do we know what that is?

Margaret, how do we know what that is?

Because we...

- Listen. - ...listen to them.

Lord, Christopher, you have to bring it down a notch.

Do you hear me?

Margaret, I'm afraid I only have one notch.

Yes, you're going to listen, and then you're going to speak.

Your speech tonight is the first time

in front of your future constituents.

So they're going to hang on every single word

that comes out of your mouth.

Margaret, tonight is your Normandy.

Okay, guys.

Let's get out there,

talk to people,

listen to them.

? There's a thrill Up on the hill ?

? Let's go let's go Let's go ?

? There's a thrill ?

[WOMAN] You know, Mrs. Graves,

I used to work tool and dye at the plant.

But ever since they sent the jobs down south,

I've been out of work.

I can hardly afford to feed my animals.

? Up on a hill ?

? Let's go let's go Let's go ?

? Well there's a house honey Way across town ?

? People coming From miles around ?

? Hey hey got to put on My pretty red dress ?

- ? Put your dress on baby ? - [BLARES HORN]

[TRUCK DRIVER] I really do miss your husband, ma'am.

This is Richard Graves country.

It always will be.

? And go way Far up on a hill ?

You took down that beer

better than a frat boy during hell week, doll.

All those people today, they love Richard.

Everything he stood for.

They don't have a clue what to make of me.

So, tonight it's all about Margaret Graves.

? Up on a hill ?

? Let's go let's go Let's go ?

- ? Whoo ? - ? Yeah, yeah ?

What in the hell is wrong with you, son?

I just...

I don't want to work the ranch, Pop.

Can't do it.

I want to go to college.

Uh, ahem, your ambition is bigger than your brain, Richard.

And the world will find you out.

What will you do then?

[JESSE] I want to be a teacher.

I know I won't have a whole lot,

but, hell, we never did.

I just... I want to be happy, you know?

Be my own man.

You understand?

Just promise me you'll keep in touch,

and always come back to Shiloh.

[SNIFFLES]

[SOBS]

And the camera pulls back

as we embrace, father and son.

[APPLAUSE]

Wow. Gosh. Guys...

What the fuck was that?

That never happened.

Yes, yes, notes. Go ahead, let me have them.

Listen to me,

you selfish son of a bitch.

When you walk out that door and off this property,

you better make goddamn sure it was worth it.

And don't you fuckin' come back to me when you fail.

You hear me? I don't want to have anything to do with you.

So go on.

Get the hell out of here.

Jesus. Easy, sir.

[APPLAUSE]

[JESSE] That was...

amazing!

So intense and real.

I need a goddamn drink.

Oh, great.

To be honest,

I didn't want to be here today.

But as some of you know, after losing my love,

my doctor who crossed a border and into my heart,

I'll soon become one of you.

But, see, I choose not to dwell in the darkness.

I choose to celebrate things like the wonderful work

that this charity does

for the unfortunate who,

though they speak a different language

and are often poor,

only want to be loved,

and perhaps in a stable

and committed relationship.

Thank you.

[APPLAUSE]

? Oh, where have you been My blue-eyed son? ?

? Where have you been My darling young one? ?

? I've stumbled on the side Of 12 misty mountains ?

? Walked and I've crawled On six crooked highways ?

? Ten thousand miles In the mouth of a graveyard ?

- ? It's a hard ? - ? Hard ?

- ? And it's a hard ? - ? Hard ?

- ? And it's a hard ? - ? Hard ?

- ? And it's a hard ? - ? Hard ?

? And it's a hard rain ?

? A-gonna fall ?

[BREATHING HEAVILY]

[GRAVES] Are you going to drink that?

Or are you going to propose to it?

Neither. I'm good.

Not much of a drinker.

Oh.

Look, you're not going to really understand me

in this job sober.

It's impossible.

It's for the role.

De Niro in Raging Bull.

Christian Bale in The Machinist.

It's commitment...

sacrifice for truth.

Uh-huh.

My old friend.

Mr. Enright, what are you doing?

Fuck it, man. I'm in it now.

You're in it now? He's three years sober, sir.

- What? - All good.

Can I get another one of these?

- No, no. - Sam. Sammy.

Samantha?

[SAMANTHA LAUGHS]

[GRAVES LAUGHS]

- Hi. - Hi.

Oh, God, are you a sight for sore eyes.

Oh, I missed you, old man.

How are you doing? I heard you went a little AWOL.

No, I took a walk with a few demons.

So, you know...

I got a couple of my own running around these days.

[BOTH LAUGH]

Hey, can I get another one of these?

Two more, actually.

Danny Kennedy.

What on earth are you doing here?

My family's been supporting single mothers forever.

What's it been, four years?

Uh, Hyannis Port.

Rory's birthday.

You've been missed, Liv.

I mean, philanthropy's exhausting enough.

But when you travel in our circles,

it helps to have your people around.

Makes it fun.

Yeah.

We had some good times.

Yeah. Hey, I'm so sorry about you and William.

It's a real shame how that all happened.

And now... this.

What can you do, Danny? I'm surviving.

As for William, I mean, he's not a bad guy.

I'm just... you know, I'm just not trying to get HPV

from all that random vagina he was constantly perusing.

Well, you always did tell it just like it is.

Yeah. Sorry.

I continue to learn that I'm not everyone's cup of tea.

I love tea.

You do?

Jerry North talks about people getting a fair slice of the pie.

And I tell you, it's not about who gets the biggest slice.

It's about creating a bigger pie for everyone.

What I'm getting at is in the primary,

that was just the first step in trying to...

Oh, hell.

You know what?

I'm going to get real here for a minute.

And I'm going to talk about me.

And I'm just going to say it,

because somewhere along the line,

this became a dirty word in politics.

Ladies and gentlemen, I grew up poor.

Dirt-ass poor.

- [LAUGHTER] - We didn't have a car.

We didn't have a color TV.

But what we did have were values.

Values like you people have.

- [MAN] Yes. - [APPLAUSE]

I know what it's like to go without.

And all of you people who are looking for a job,

I am here to help,

because I've been there.

[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]

I'm going to make some real changes in New Mexico

if you send me back to Washington,

because it is time to take our country back.

[ALL CHEER]

[ALL] Take it back! Take it back!

Take it back! Take it back!

Take it back!

Take it back! Take it back! Take it back!

Take it back!

Take it back! Take it back!

Hell, yeah! Take it back!

- Hi. - [GASPS] Fuck!

- Sorry. - [LAUGHS]

You scared me.

Oh, sorry.

I saw you come back here.

Yeah, it's just I haven't seen you in months,

and now every time I turn around, there you are.

I always thought you left town.

Failure to launch, I guess.

You know, Olivia and I have been hanging out, actually,

believe it or not.

- Not. Wow. Really? - [LAUGHS]

Yeah. I mean, we kind of bonded that night that you...

Anyway, I mean, you're like a real American hero now.

Oh, no, I wouldn't... I wouldn't say that.

That part's still really confusing, to be honest.

How's the...?

Well, um, yeah, it... it still hurts.

It's going to hurt for a long time, they say.

You know, I wanted to thank you.

For what?

Well, I heard you were at the hospital,

and I just wanted to thank you for being there for me.

Well, I should get back to work.

Totally. Okay.

[MUMBLES]

? Oh, I need you ?

? Uh-huh, I tell you ?

I want to crawl inside your brain

and have your brain meld into mine,

so we speak with the same tongue, you know?

And don't think I haven't done my homework.

I did a ton of research for this role.

Like, how does someone who starts off fighting bullies

become one himself?

[MICROPHONE FEEDBACK SQUEALS]

Go fuck yourself, Johnny.

I'm just saying, Luce, you get the words wrong

every goddamn time.

Did you not hear me? Fuck off, Johnny.

About this time at the White House,

I'd get a call from the Secretary of State.

And he'd say, "Conference call, Mr. President.

The Middle East peace talks are falling apart."

So go on, fix it.

What?

Make peace!

Every single night, you got to say something

about what I do, how I do it... fuck, who I do.

The lyrics are whatever the fuck

I want them to be.

So stand behind me, play your little instrument

- and shut the hell up. - [AS GRAVES] Hey, hey, hey, now.

Let's talk this thing out, folks.

There's always two damn sides to every story.

So we need...

Oh, Jesus.

[GASPS]

[LAUGHS]

Jesus. That's it, Lucinda. You're gone.

Fired, do you hear me?

Go on.

On your ass and bleeding

before you even made your case.

That's pretty much how it always went.

Oh, my God, Jesse Enright.

I think my nose is broken.

I think he's had enough for today, sir.

Not yet.

His official day isn't over yet.

[BOTH MOANING AND PANTING]

Oh, my God.

[SIGHS]

- You know, Livs... - Hmm?

...the next couple of weeks in the city are a crunch,

but I rent my house in the Hamptons.

And you're telling me this why?

Well, you have to come.

Hey, slow your roll, Kennedy.

Everybody's going to be at God's Love We Deliver.

Then the week after that, it's the white party.

And then the polo classic.

Everybody's going to shit themselves

when we walk in together.

Um, yeah. Uh...

it's just I... I haven't hung out with the Hamptons crowd

in a while, so...

That's okay. I mean, as soon as you get there,

it's going to be like you never left.

That's what I'm afraid of.

[SIGHS]

Do you know if you're going to have a boy or a girl?

Um, I don't really want to know, actually.

Oh. A surprise.

Just like today.

Hey, Danny?

Yeah?

Get the fuck out.

[EXHALES]

Every one of these

is a decision a president made.

Those people over there...

that's the worst part of it.

[SIGHS]

How do you feel?

Exhausted.

Totally drained.

More than a little disoriented.

Well, good.

Good, keep feeling that way.

You'll make a great me.

[SIGHS]

No, no, no. Not gonna have it.

Yeah, you're right. That's cool.

Anyway, I'm going to...

I'm going to go. So...

[SIGHS]

Well...

[EXHALES]

Do you ever regret it, sir?

Going to college instead of staying at the ranch

like your father wanted?

I needed...

something bigger.

So you became president to show him all the things

he missed out on by not being there for you, right?

No, I became president because I wanted to become president.

If you don't take risks,

the world stops.

? There's no instance ?

? In conscience Or convenience ?

? Even though you stand On heavy shoulders ?

? I'll take the roundabout ?

? Because I like to see St. Jude ?

[PHONE LINE RINGING]

? Again and again ?

_

[STEPHANIE, OVER PHONE] Hello?

[JEREMY] Hi, is this Stephanie Dalton?

It is.

Yeah, this is Jeremy Graves.

Listen, I had a question for you about your ex-husband

and my mother.

And me.
