are backed by a U.S.-led
Western coalition.

involved with Syria...

00:07:22,019 --> 00:07:25,365
Jason, do you know how
to fix the Internet?
179
00:07:25,389 --> 00:07:28,735
Well, the open-source culture
generally doesn't mesh well
180
00:07:28,759 --> 00:07:32,338
with WPA supplicant configuration files.
181
00:07:32,362 --> 00:07:34,462
So...
182
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:37,978
I'm not accusing you of
anything, Ambassador Dworsky.
183
00:07:38,002 --> 00:07:41,147
I'm asking for an explanation.
184
00:07:41,171 --> 00:07:42,481
And I'm giving you one.
185
00:07:42,505 --> 00:07:45,217
The IDF is not in the
habit of bombing children.
186
00:07:45,241 --> 00:07:46,385
I never said habit.
187
00:07:46,409 --> 00:07:48,921
I'm hoping it was an accident.
188
00:07:48,945 --> 00:07:51,190
The world will see it as a war crime.
189
00:07:51,214 --> 00:07:54,660
ELIZABETH: Precipitated by a
weapon we only provide to Israel.
190
00:07:54,684 --> 00:07:57,162
Meaning the burden of proof
is on your country to establish
191
00:07:57,186 --> 00:08:00,766
that it had no involvement
in this bombing.
192
00:08:00,790 --> 00:08:02,334
And if we can't prove a negative?
193
00:08:02,358 --> 00:08:04,203
First things first.
194
00:08:04,227 --> 00:08:06,205
Syria is now an Israeli no-fly zone.
195
00:08:06,229 --> 00:08:08,540
And all shipments
196
00:08:08,564 --> 00:08:12,044
of the CBU-87 will be suspended
pending our investigation.
197
00:08:12,068 --> 00:08:14,246
So now the U.S. is doing Iran's bidding.
198
00:08:14,270 --> 00:08:17,650
- Ambassador Dworsky...
- If America handcuffs us,
199
00:08:17,674 --> 00:08:21,353
Iran will have carte Blanche
to expand its military presence
200
00:08:21,377 --> 00:08:23,489
in Syria and continue
arming our enemies.
201
00:08:23,513 --> 00:08:25,757
United States won't let that happen,
202
00:08:25,781 --> 00:08:28,426
- Mr. Ambassador.
- Let it happen?
203
00:08:28,450 --> 00:08:31,529
You're facilitating it by
helping Iran scapegoat us.
204
00:08:31,553 --> 00:08:36,300
We're simply asking for you to
put a moratorium on IDF sorties
205
00:08:36,324 --> 00:08:37,795
until we can get to the bottom of this.
206
00:08:37,796 --> 00:08:41,272
And will there be a moratorium
on Iranian arms convoys?
207
00:08:41,296 --> 00:08:43,851
On the build-out of
Iranian infrastructure
208
00:08:43,852 --> 00:08:45,676
just miles from Tel Aviv?
209
00:08:45,700 --> 00:08:50,881
If America's not willing to defend
us, then we will defend ourselves.
210
00:08:50,905 --> 00:08:52,338
Good day, Madam Secretary.
211
00:08:55,979 --> 00:08:58,989
Cluster bombs have an
important strategic role to play
212
00:08:59,013 --> 00:09:01,292
in U.S. military policy. By dispersing
213
00:09:01,316 --> 00:09:02,726
multiple packets at once,
214
00:09:02,750 --> 00:09:04,895
they allow us to neutralize vehicles
215
00:09:04,919 --> 00:09:07,798
and enemy personnel in a single blast.
216
00:09:07,822 --> 00:09:11,369
You know, and more to the point,
Moscow uses them, so we have to.
217
00:09:11,393 --> 00:09:13,538
Yeah, tell that to the
parents of the 29 children.
218
00:09:13,562 --> 00:09:15,640
It's about mutual deterrence, Henry.
219
00:09:15,664 --> 00:09:17,775
Gifting the Russians
a strategic advantage
220
00:09:17,799 --> 00:09:20,244
- risks asymmetric warfare.
- We're talking about
221
00:09:20,268 --> 00:09:22,280
an anti-personnel weapon
whose sole purpose it is
222
00:09:22,304 --> 00:09:24,648
- to maximize carnage and death.
- Okay, come on,
223
00:09:24,672 --> 00:09:26,816
Henry, every weapon in
creation has that goal.
224
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:28,951
- It's not the tool, it's how it's used.
- Okay.
225
00:09:28,975 --> 00:09:31,303
So we should build in
additional safeguards.
226
00:09:31,327 --> 00:09:32,329
Yes.
227
00:09:32,330 --> 00:09:34,457
Like imposing more stringent rules
228
00:09:34,481 --> 00:09:37,494
of engagement on Israel,
which we can discuss.
229
00:09:37,518 --> 00:09:39,663
I'm aware of the strategic
and military concerns,
230
00:09:39,687 --> 00:09:41,898
but there are serious
ethical considerations
231
00:09:41,922 --> 00:09:43,366
that we've got to take into account.
232
00:09:43,390 --> 00:09:46,369
98% of submunition casualties
233
00:09:46,393 --> 00:09:48,338
around the globe are civilian.
234
00:09:48,362 --> 00:09:51,474
- 98%.
- All right.
235
00:09:51,498 --> 00:09:53,042
All valid points.
236
00:09:53,066 --> 00:09:55,978
We need to find out what happened,
237
00:09:56,002 --> 00:09:57,714
move this conversation forward,
238
00:09:57,738 --> 00:10:00,716
and provide POTUS with
a swift recommendation.
239
00:10:00,740 --> 00:10:02,628
HENRY: Russell, in
terms of a timetable...
240
00:10:02,629 --> 00:10:04,220
I'm not rushing you, Henry.
241
00:10:04,244 --> 00:10:06,388
This should be done
as quickly as possible,
242
00:10:06,412 --> 00:10:09,525
- but not quicker.

246
00:10:24,163 --> 00:10:25,774
It's hardly news that
the Syrian Air Force

00:10:25,798 --> 00:10:27,809
- uses Russian air bases.
- Uh, yes, sir.
248

But the flight trajectory
of this plane is telling.

What you see now is a
payload being dropped
250

at a ceiling of 15,000
feet. Namely, a CBU-87.
251
00:10:38,910 --> 00:10:41,889
Its laser-guided target
252
00:10:41,913 --> 00:10:44,892
is an abandoned lot.

I'll spare you the visual of the impact.
256
00:10:57,195 --> 00:10:58,740
So the cluster bomb was
dropped from a Syrian plane

00:10:58,764 --> 00:11:00,275
that took off from a Russian base.
258
00:11:00,299 --> 00:11:04,178
Meaning that Israel was
right about being framed.
259
00:11:04,202 --> 00:11:05,713
They just had the wrong culprit.
260
00:11:05,737 --> 00:11:07,014

of our cluster bombs.

351
00:14:47,562 --> 00:14:49,873
Yeah, it's gonna be weeks
before they button that up.
352
00:14:49,897 --> 00:14:53,644
Lean on Ephraim to share his
preliminary results with you.
353
00:14:53,668 --> 00:14:56,380
- Why would he do that?
- Professional courtesy.
354
00:14:56,404 --> 00:14:57,981
One intel pro to another.
355
00:14:58,005 --> 00:15:00,384
Mm, yeah, I guess.
356
00:15:00,408 --> 00:15:02,052
How are you doing?
357
00:15:02,076 --> 00:15:04,321
Flailing.
358
00:15:04,345 --> 00:15:06,490
Israel and Syria are stirring the pot.
359
00:15:06,514 --> 00:15:09,365
- The proxies are out of control.
- What about the principals?
360
00:15:09,366 --> 00:15:11,808
Avdonin told me to kiss off.
361
00:15:12,935 --> 00:15:16,288
Unlike you, I eat my feelings.
362
00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:21,382
Oh, Ali was right.
363
00:15:21,383 --> 00:15:24,407
Our Internet is junky.
364
00:15:24,431 --> 00:15:27,910
Hey, did you call the ISP guy?
365
00:15:27,934 --> 00:15:30,201
Oh, yeah, they said that
there's nothing they can do.
366
00:15:30,202 --> 00:15:32,381
They ran a diagnostic, and
apparently our bandwidth
367
00:15:32,405 --> 00:15:33,516
is overloaded.
368
00:15:33,540 --> 00:15:35,084
Seems like a lot of new devices
369
00:15:35,108 --> 00:15:36,985
have recently been added.
370
00:15:37,009 --> 00:15:38,821
You know, when I took out the garbage,
371
00:15:38,845 --> 00:15:41,724
I saw a bunch of empty
boxes with computer stuff,
372
00:15:41,748 --> 00:15:45,127
like graphics cards,
external hard drives, CPUs.
373
00:15:45,151 --> 00:15:47,530
I thought, I don't know,
maybe it was you or...
374
00:15:47,554 --> 00:15:51,767
Me? I don't even know
what that stuff is.
375
00:15:51,791 --> 00:15:53,703
BOTH: Jason!
376
00:15:53,727 --> 00:15:57,527
SpectroCoin.
377
00:15:58,631 --> 00:16:01,209
- Heard of it?
- Nope.
378
00:16:01,233 --> 00:16:03,044
It's a cryptocurrency,
and I'm mining it,
379
00:16:03,068 --> 00:16:05,946
so I networked the house's
iPads and laptops and desktops.
380
00:16:05,970 --> 00:16:08,582
Meaning our computers are slow.
381
00:16:08,606 --> 00:16:10,817
Because you turned them
into your drone army.
382
00:16:10,841 --> 00:16:11,952
I lost my financial aid.
383
00:16:11,976 --> 00:16:13,682
You guys told me to be entrepreneurial.
384
00:16:13,683 --> 00:16:15,218
We didn't tell you to play the lottery.
385
00:16:15,219 --> 00:16:17,391
I'm not. Look,
386
00:16:17,415 --> 00:16:20,728
when global instability
leads to currency fluctuation,
387
00:16:20,752 --> 00:16:23,631
people turn to decentralized
cryptocurrencies.
388
00:16:23,655 --> 00:16:26,166
So, with the whole mess
going on in Syria...
389
00:16:26,190 --> 00:16:27,668
Oh.
390
00:16:27,692 --> 00:16:30,271
So you're betting against
391
00:16:30,295 --> 00:16:32,406
me being good at my job.
392
00:16:32,430 --> 00:16:35,498
No, no, it-it's arbitrage.
393
00:16:36,701 --> 00:16:39,279
- Look, I made three grand this month.
- You did?
394
00:16:39,303 --> 00:16:41,178
HENRY: Less the money that you blew
395
00:16:41,179 --> 00:16:43,583
- on all that computer stuff.
- ELIZABETH: Right.
396
00:16:43,607 --> 00:16:45,252
Invest in infrastructure.
397
00:16:45,276 --> 00:16:48,989
That's the first rule
of financial success.
398
00:16:49,013 --> 00:16:51,513
Will you guys please let me do this?
399
00:16:53,818 --> 00:16:55,395
Please?
400
00:16:55,419 --> 00:16:59,266
You release all of our
devices from cyber bondage.
401
00:16:59,290 --> 00:17:01,434
And limit your hijacking of
the Internet to when we're
402
00:17:01,458 --> 00:17:03,804
asleep or at work. Understood?
403
00:17:03,828 --> 00:17:05,405
Yes.
404
00:17:05,429 --> 00:17:10,810
But I will need to
buy some new equipment
405
00:17:10,834 --> 00:17:11,911
to optimize functionality.
406
00:17:11,935 --> 00:17:13,078
- (LAUGHS)
- The things is, I'm a little...
407
00:17:13,102 --> 00:17:14,246
- I'm a little strapped for cash.
- (CHUCKLES)
408
00:17:14,270 --> 00:17:16,783
Second rule of financial success:
409
00:17:16,807 --> 00:17:19,419
never ask your parents for money.
410
00:17:19,443 --> 00:17:21,220
(CHUCKLING)
411
00:17:21,244 --> 00:17:23,690
TV REPORTER: Her name is Maggie...
412
00:17:23,714 --> 00:17:25,090
Stevie!
413
00:17:25,114 --> 00:17:26,626
Those tireless criticisms
seem to have finally hit home.
414
00:17:26,650 --> 00:17:28,294
Fresh off an awkward confrontation
415
00:17:28,318 --> 00:17:30,063
with the president's chief of staff.
416
00:17:30,064 --> 00:17:33,566
Stevie! I thought you were
gonna put a lid on this.
417
00:17:33,590 --> 00:17:35,301
I'm trying. I went to see her.
418
00:17:35,325 --> 00:17:37,269
I-I offered her space in a shelter.
419
00:17:37,293 --> 00:17:39,505
I told her I'd get her a
meeting with Social Services.
420
00:17:39,529 --> 00:17:40,707
I brought her coffee.
421
00:17:40,731 --> 00:17:42,074
- What did she say?
- "No."
422
00:17:42,098 --> 00:17:43,509
"Stuff it."
423
00:17:43,533 --> 00:17:45,510
And she only drinks oat
milk lattes, extra hot.
424
00:17:45,534 --> 00:17:48,112
She was yelling into the abyss.
Now she's got a megaphone?
425
00:17:48,136 --> 00:17:51,216
You had one task: keep
the crazy lady at bay.
426
00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:53,084
I know, I know. I think I
may have found something.
427
00:17:53,108 --> 00:17:55,253
Years ago, Maggie was
an up-and-coming scholar
428
00:17:55,277 --> 00:17:57,121
doing a dissertation
with government funding,
429
00:17:57,145 --> 00:17:59,825
which she lost because of
allegations of plagiarism.
430
00:17:59,849 --> 00:18:01,926
Um, she was eventually
cleared, but by that time
431
00:18:01,950 --> 00:18:03,528
she'd been drummed out of academia.
432
00:18:03,552 --> 00:18:05,296
- And that began her descent.
- Why is this interesting to me?
433
00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:06,398
Because I have an idea.
434
00:18:06,422 --> 00:18:07,966
Something that may help
defuse the situation.
435
00:18:07,990 --> 00:18:09,768
Now, please. I don't want
436
00:18:09,792 --> 00:18:12,170
- to hear about this again.
- Okay.
437
00:18:12,194 --> 00:18:13,839
- Hi.
- Dr. McCord to see you.
438
00:18:13,863 --> 00:18:16,675
Home and abroad, the
world's coming apart, Henry.
439
00:18:16,699 --> 00:18:18,877
Seems like it's down to
the McCords to save it.
440
00:18:18,901 --> 00:18:20,945
Well, I don't think this McCord is
441
00:18:20,969 --> 00:18:22,747
coming to the rescue quite yet.
442
00:18:22,771 --> 00:18:26,284
Per Ephraim, preliminary
analysis of the bomb fragments
443
00:18:26,308 --> 00:18:31,189
confirms the alloy
was Russian in origin.
444
00:18:31,213 --> 00:18:33,739
Are you saying the cluster
bomb was a Russian knockoff?
445
00:18:33,763 --> 00:18:38,029
- Yep.
- So, if this was all just Russia and Syria
446
00:18:38,053 --> 00:18:42,233
trying to set us up, we're off the hook.
447
00:18:42,257 --> 00:18:43,834
Uh, slow down, Russell.
448
00:18:43,858 --> 00:18:47,005
The metallurgical analysis
doesn't exonerate us.
449
00:18:47,029 --> 00:18:48,873
It points to a bigger problem.
450
00:18:48,897 --> 00:18:51,675
For Russia to have
replicated the CBU-87,
451
00:18:51,699 --> 00:18:55,512
they would've needed
the weapon schematics.
452
00:18:55,536 --> 00:18:58,481
Someone at Dynametrics
Munitions could be dirty.
453
00:18:58,505 --> 00:19:01,583
Which means America could
still have blood on its hands.
454
00:19:01,607 --> 00:19:02,652
(SIGHS)
455
00:19:02,676 --> 00:19:04,821
All right, stay on it.
456
00:19:04,845 --> 00:19:07,090
I want to know the extent
of Dynametrics' culpability.
457
00:19:07,114 --> 00:19:09,415
Will do.
458
00:19:11,953 --> 00:19:13,964
20 minutes ago, a
Russian troop transport
459
00:19:13,988 --> 00:19:17,467
was shot down over
Aleppo; 43 soldiers dead.
460
00:19:17,491 --> 00:19:18,735
Have we heard from the Israelis?
461
00:19:18,759 --> 00:19:20,804
The Israelis didn't
destroy the plane, sir.
462
00:19:20,828 --> 00:19:23,340
Syria did.
463
00:19:23,364 --> 00:19:25,309
Friendly fire?
464
00:19:25,333 --> 00:19:27,509
- It would appear so.
- (SIGHS)
465
00:19:27,533 --> 00:19:29,178
Well, I don't care if
it was an act of God.
466
00:19:29,202 --> 00:19:32,614
Russian soldiers dead,
Moscow will respond.
467
00:19:32,638 --> 00:19:35,517
Meaning the situation
is deteriorating fast.
468
00:19:35,541 --> 00:19:37,553
If proxies are blowing
their principals' planes
469
00:19:37,577 --> 00:19:40,823
out of the sky, the situation's
untenable for everyone.
470
00:19:40,847 --> 00:19:42,391
Which could give us an opening.
471
00:19:42,415 --> 00:19:45,217
Get with Avdonin, Bess,
before that opening closes.
472
00:19:45,241 --> 00:19:46,659
Yes, sir.
473
00:19:50,009 --> 00:19:52,854
Thank you for meeting with
me, Mr. Foreign Minister.
474
00:19:52,878 --> 00:19:56,335
I was stateside to tour
consulates when you reached out.
475
00:19:56,336 --> 00:19:58,903
I thought a sit-down would be fruitful.
476
00:19:58,904 --> 00:20:00,315
I thought so, too.
477
00:20:00,339 --> 00:20:03,919
This friendly fire incident
underscores the peril
478
00:20:03,943 --> 00:20:05,653
we now find ourselves in,
479
00:20:05,677 --> 00:20:09,858
and how easily the chaos
could draw our two countries
480
00:20:09,882 --> 00:20:12,560
- into direct conflict.
- I agree.
481
00:20:12,584 --> 00:20:16,832
Especially since it
wasn't friendly fire.
482
00:20:16,856 --> 00:20:21,837
Intel on the flight path
of an Israeli F-16 jet,
483
00:20:21,838 --> 00:20:25,895
which establishes it
deliberately flew behind
484
00:20:25,896 --> 00:20:29,510
our transport plane the
moment a Syrian battery
485
00:20:29,534 --> 00:20:32,147
locked onto the Israeli intruder.
486
00:20:32,171 --> 00:20:33,481
Israel murdered our soldiers.
487
00:20:33,505 --> 00:20:36,083
DWORSKY: We followed the protocols.
488
00:20:36,107 --> 00:20:38,219
Moscow was given a 60-second warning
489
00:20:38,243 --> 00:20:40,821
before we entered Syrian air space.
490
00:20:40,845 --> 00:20:42,789
Was apprised of our flight pattern,
491
00:20:42,813 --> 00:20:45,326
- our mission objective.
- Oh, I think we both know
492
00:20:45,350 --> 00:20:48,896
what Israel's true intentions
were, Mr. Ambassador.
493
00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:51,264
Given the lengths Russia and Syria went
494
00:20:51,265 --> 00:20:53,567
to frame Israel for that cluster bomb,
495
00:20:53,591 --> 00:20:56,103
it seems like poetic justice
496
00:20:56,127 --> 00:21:00,074
to see Moscow's client state
shoot down a Russian plane.
497
00:21:00,098 --> 00:21:03,277
KONSTANTIN:
This treachery was precipitated
498
00:21:03,301 --> 00:21:05,479
at the direction of the United States.
499
00:21:05,503 --> 00:21:06,914
That's a fabrication.
500
00:21:06,938 --> 00:21:08,849
And you want to talk about treachery?
501
00:21:08,873 --> 00:21:11,451
How about Russia forging a U.S. bomb,
502
00:21:11,475 --> 00:21:14,088
and giving it to Syria
to murder children?
503
00:21:14,112 --> 00:21:16,522
And doing it all to frame the U.S.?
504
00:21:16,546 --> 00:21:18,691
Even if that fantasy were true,
505
00:21:18,715 --> 00:21:22,695
it hardly justifies a conspiracy
to kill Russian soldiers.
506
00:21:22,719 --> 00:21:24,163
ELIZABETH: We need to de-escalate.
507
00:21:24,187 --> 00:21:26,191
Israel has to issue a statement
508
00:21:26,192 --> 00:21:28,102
acknowledging its role in this crisis.
509
00:21:28,126 --> 00:21:29,437
DWORSKY: What role?
510
00:21:29,461 --> 00:21:31,105
The role of defending our tiny country
511
00:21:31,129 --> 00:21:33,875
against a swarm of enemies
backed by Moscow?
512
00:21:33,899 --> 00:21:36,378
KONSTANTIN: In light of this aggression,
513
00:21:36,402 --> 00:21:38,180
Russia will be supplying Syria
514
00:21:38,204 --> 00:21:39,747
with an upgraded air defense system.
515
00:21:39,771 --> 00:21:42,317
DWORSKY: If Russia is augmenting
516
00:21:42,341 --> 00:21:47,822
Syria's military capabilities, we
demand the latest in U.S. technology...
517
00:21:47,846 --> 00:21:51,292
So you want us to put you
on a war footing with Syria.
518
00:21:51,316 --> 00:21:53,126
We won't sanction an arms race.
519
00:21:53,150 --> 00:21:57,598
The U.S. has always used Israel
as a pawn for America's agenda.
520
00:21:57,622 --> 00:22:02,636
You give us weapons, then handcuff
us when we try to use them.
521
00:22:02,660 --> 00:22:05,306
Give us money, but
tell us how to spend it.
522
00:22:05,330 --> 00:22:08,509
Thank you very much, but
we are the ones at risk.
523
00:22:08,533 --> 00:22:11,412
And we know how to protect ourselves.
524
00:22:11,436 --> 00:22:13,325
KONSTANTIN: Russia will not tolerate
525
00:22:13,326 --> 00:22:16,138
the murder of its citizens.
526
00:22:16,162 --> 00:22:19,263
An immediate response
will be forthcoming.
527
00:22:25,104 --> 00:22:26,414
RUSSELL: So we're sure
528
00:22:26,438 --> 00:22:30,251
Russia wasn't given the
schematics for the CBU-87?
529
00:22:30,275 --> 00:22:32,887
Yes. According to our investigation,
530
00:22:32,911 --> 00:22:34,923
there was no malfeasance,
just negligence.
531
00:22:34,947 --> 00:22:36,891
More like gross negligence,
532
00:22:36,915 --> 00:22:38,493
behind DOD's back.
533
00:22:38,517 --> 00:22:40,996
Dynametrics gutted their
cyber security budget
534
00:22:41,020 --> 00:22:43,331
so they could undercut
competitors on government bids.
535
00:22:43,355 --> 00:22:46,868
In the process, creating
vulnerabilities Russia exploited
536
00:22:46,892 --> 00:22:49,604
by hacking the company's database.
537
00:22:49,628 --> 00:22:51,494
Thanks, Ephraim.
538
00:22:54,767 --> 00:22:57,410
Well, thank God we're not
looking at treason here.
539
00:22:57,434 --> 00:23:00,714
Well, cutting corners is
no cause for celebration.
540
00:23:00,738 --> 00:23:02,582
Dynametrics's digital infrastructure
541
00:23:02,606 --> 00:23:05,452
is woefully underfunded
and just this side of legal.
542
00:23:05,476 --> 00:23:09,356
Agreed, but as long as
they played by the rules...
543
00:23:09,380 --> 00:23:12,693
You can technically play by
the rules and still be at fault.
544
00:23:12,717 --> 00:23:14,028
That's what ethics are all about.
545
00:23:14,052 --> 00:23:16,697
Well, you can put it all in your report.
546
00:23:16,721 --> 00:23:20,233
Speaking of which, how's it coming?
547
00:23:20,257 --> 00:23:22,402
It-it's evolving.
548
00:23:22,426 --> 00:23:24,704
Evolving.
549
00:23:24,728 --> 00:23:28,708
Right. You know,
550
00:23:28,732 --> 00:23:31,811
there's a lot at stake here.
551
00:23:31,835 --> 00:23:36,749
After having refused to sign
on to the cluster bomb ban,
552
00:23:36,773 --> 00:23:39,486
an about-face in the
wake of a single tragedy
553
00:23:39,510 --> 00:23:42,311
could be seen as an
admission of wrongdoing.
554
00:23:44,014 --> 00:23:46,993
Or as an assumption of
moral responsibility.
555
00:23:47,017 --> 00:23:50,597
Moral responsibility has its costs.
556
00:23:50,621 --> 00:23:52,554
One of which will be
to tar the president.
557
00:23:54,525 --> 00:23:57,926
And the Secretary of State.
558
00:24:01,798 --> 00:24:03,810
BLAKE: New proposals
to help the relatives
559
00:24:03,834 --> 00:24:05,912
of the dead children.
I tried to get creative.
560
00:24:05,936 --> 00:24:09,315
Uh-huh, by reallocating
some of our UNHCR funds
561
00:24:09,339 --> 00:24:11,368
for housing allowances
to the affected families.
562
00:24:11,369 --> 00:24:14,754
- Exactly.
- Except this isn't a refugee crisis.
563
00:24:14,778 --> 00:24:17,445
Homes weren't destroyed;
Foreign Affairs won't sign off.
564
00:24:18,915 --> 00:24:21,393
Okay.
565
00:24:21,417 --> 00:24:24,430
What about relocating the
bereaved out of the war zone?
566
00:24:24,454 --> 00:24:27,033
How do we justify preferential treatment
567
00:24:27,057 --> 00:24:28,701
when thousands of civilians
have already perished?
568
00:24:28,725 --> 00:24:30,970
It's not preferential treatment.
It's a mission of mercy.
569
00:24:30,994 --> 00:24:33,571
Driven by American guilt
over the use of a cluster bomb
570
00:24:33,595 --> 00:24:35,373
we didn't even manufacture,
meaning it's back
571
00:24:35,397 --> 00:24:37,597
- to the drawing board.
- Back to the drawing board.
572
00:24:39,534 --> 00:24:42,147
This is your carrel.
573
00:24:42,171 --> 00:24:45,705
It's got a nameplate.
It says "Maggie Brixton."
574
00:24:47,376 --> 00:24:48,920
You got me a desk?
575
00:24:48,944 --> 00:24:53,091
Yes. And the administration has
received assurances that you can
576
00:24:53,115 --> 00:24:56,294
do as much reading and writing
here as you want, undisturbed.
577
00:24:56,318 --> 00:25:01,199
And you think this trivial
gesture will buy my silence?
578
00:25:01,223 --> 00:25:02,801
There's...
579
00:25:02,825 --> 00:25:04,736
there's no quid pro quo here.
580
00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:06,404
You bet there's not.
581
00:25:06,428 --> 00:25:08,806
Because I am only getting started.
582
00:25:08,830 --> 00:25:12,243
The Dalton administration
will not silence me.
583
00:25:12,267 --> 00:25:13,595
Yeah, one sign a day,
584
00:25:13,596 --> 00:25:16,381
- that's too much for you? How about ten?
- Uh, Stevie...
585
00:25:16,405 --> 00:25:19,049
You will be held to account
586
00:25:19,073 --> 00:25:20,752
for every transgression.
587
00:25:20,776 --> 00:25:22,720
Every moral failing, every
act of greed, because this...
588
00:25:22,744 --> 00:25:25,490
- Stevie, now.
- Just wait. Wait.
589
00:25:25,514 --> 00:25:27,659
... t-this...
590
00:25:27,683 --> 00:25:32,196
this is, t-the type
of control mechanism
591
00:25:32,220 --> 00:25:34,565
that every government,
592
00:25:34,589 --> 00:25:36,689
every despot...
593
00:25:47,201 --> 00:25:49,301
Okay. We can go now.
594
00:25:53,140 --> 00:25:55,118
ELIZABETH: You okay?
595
00:25:55,142 --> 00:25:58,121
Yeah, I'm just t-trying to
wrap my head around normalizing
596
00:25:58,145 --> 00:26:01,257
an acceptable level of dead children.
597
00:26:01,281 --> 00:26:05,696
Well, you're no stranger
to collateral damage.
598
00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:08,231
You were a fighter pilot.
599
00:26:08,255 --> 00:26:10,834
Yes, and I knew that innocents
600
00:26:10,858 --> 00:26:13,136
would inevitably be
caught in the crossfire...
601
00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:15,638
that's something I'm still
trying to reconcile...
602
00:26:15,662 --> 00:26:18,107
but it's one thing to follow orders,
603
00:26:18,131 --> 00:26:20,543
it's another to sanction
weapons that you know
604
00:26:20,567 --> 00:26:22,345
will result in the death of civilians.
605
00:26:22,369 --> 00:26:26,015
Cluster bombs
indiscriminately kill people.
606
00:26:26,039 --> 00:26:28,084
That's kind of what they're all about.
607
00:26:28,108 --> 00:26:29,752
Which is why we need diplomacy.
608
00:26:29,776 --> 00:26:33,489
Yeah, well, diplomacy's
not working right now.
609
00:26:33,513 --> 00:26:37,093
Syria's about to open
up a front against Israel
610
00:26:37,117 --> 00:26:41,931
and Iran is stepping up
arms shipments to Hezbollah
611

I'm meeting with the

616

first thing in the morning, but...
617
00:26:55,167 --> 00:26:58,347
You have got to be kidding me.
618
00:26:58,371 --> 00:26:59,582
- What?
- Our electric bill.
619
00:26:59,606 --> 00:27:02,752
It's, like, 800 last month to 2,000?

- Jason?

00:27:06,345 --> 00:27:08,379
Come here.

See, this is why we should
all be using solar power.

00:27:14,287 --> 00:27:17,433
Oh, yes, well, until
that time, your little
625
00:27:17,457 --> 00:27:21,103
cryptocurrency escapade is
gonna drive us into bankruptcy.
626
00:27:21,127 --> 00:27:24,105
Meaning that you're gonna pay
us the difference between this
627
00:27:24,129 --> 00:27:26,274
and last month's bill.
628
00:27:26,298 --> 00:27:27,776
- 1,200 bucks.
- JASON: Fine.
629
00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:29,878
I will wire you the
equivalent in SpectroCoin.
630
00:27:29,902 --> 00:27:31,045
- No, no. Uhp.
- No, no.
631
00:27:31,069 --> 00:27:32,447
Cash on the barrel.
632
00:27:32,471 --> 00:27:35,917
How about you cover the power bill,
633
00:27:35,941 --> 00:27:38,787
and I will cut you in on my profits?
634
00:27:38,811 --> 00:27:39,854
And you can think of that
635
00:27:39,878 --> 00:27:40,898
as an investment.
636
00:27:40,899 --> 00:27:43,524
We've already invested in
you for 17 years, sport.
637
00:27:43,525 --> 00:27:46,027
And it's about to pay
off. SpectroCoin is up 300%

Russell, hi.
645
00:28:03,167 --> 00:28:05,979
RUSSELL: Russia is sending
their Northern Fleet to Latakia,
646
00:28:06,003 --> 00:28:07,314
Syria's most important harbor.
647
00:28:07,338 --> 00:28:08,916
What?
648
00:28:08,940 --> 00:28:10,250
It's one big setup.
649
00:28:10,274 --> 00:28:12,252
The cluster bomb, Moscow's response
650
00:28:12,276 --> 00:28:13,720
to Syria's destruction of their plane...
651
00:28:13,744 --> 00:28:15,221
It's all to create leverage.
652
00:28:15,245 --> 00:28:16,890
They want a Mediterranean port.
653
00:28:16,914 --> 00:28:18,425
Yeah, and the president's not
654
00:28:18,449 --> 00:28:20,661
gonna allow that, no matter what.
655
00:28:20,685 --> 00:28:22,062

- It's an armada.
- Yes, sir.
659
00:28:32,964 --> 00:28:34,808
And once their Northern
Fleet is in position,
660
00:28:34,832 --> 00:28:37,110
we won't be able to
dislodge it without a war.
661
00:28:37,134 --> 00:28:39,879
Bess, what do we hear
from your counterpart?
662
00:28:39,903 --> 00:28:41,881
Avdonin insists
663
00:28:41,905 --> 00:28:43,850
that an increased naval
presence is necessary
664
00:28:43,874 --> 00:28:46,786
to counter American
and Israeli aggressions.
665
00:28:46,810 --> 00:28:48,988
ELLEN: It's a pretext.
666
00:28:49,012 --> 00:28:50,823
Russia has a small
naval facility in Tartus
667
00:28:50,847 --> 00:28:53,660
that whet their appetite
for regional domination.
668
00:28:53,684 --> 00:28:55,362
- And this fleet will give it to them.
- Yes, sir.
669
00:28:55,386 --> 00:28:58,365
And if we don't push Russia
back now, they will have a port
670
00:28:58,389 --> 00:29:02,469
that puts them a stone's throw
from vital NATO bases in Turkey.
671

672

a fleet to intercept Russia's advance.
673
00:29:06,597 --> 00:29:11,043
Which will put us on the verge
of direct military conflict.
674
00:29:11,067 --> 00:29:13,668
Only if Russia doesn't blink.
We have to hope they do.
675
00:29:14,838 --> 00:29:17,938
Gordon's right. We have
very little choice here.
676
00:29:19,875 --> 00:29:22,087
How far out is the Northern Fleet?
677
00:29:22,111 --> 00:29:24,757
About 26 hours. Our Eighth Fleet needs
678
00:29:24,781 --> 00:29:26,925
about eight hours' advance
notice to intercept them.
679

get Russia to stand down.

about Dynametrics's negligence in this?

00:29:35,725 --> 00:29:39,004
Uh, not yet. But you should
include it in your report.

to deliver to the president,

00:29:46,268 --> 00:29:50,203
Correct, because I'm
gonna tell him myself.

Respectfully, Henry, that's not SOP.
688
00:29:55,444 --> 00:29:57,689
Yeah, let's talk about SOP,

since the beginning.

importance of not embarrassing
691
00:30:02,784 --> 00:30:05,697
the administration, tacitly
backing military prerogatives
692
00:30:05,721 --> 00:30:07,626
over ethical ones.
693
00:30:07,627 --> 00:30:10,301
You're not suggesting I
wouldn't provide the president
694
00:30:10,325 --> 00:30:12,903
an accurate summary of your conclusions?
695
00:30:12,927 --> 00:30:15,434
It's not just what you say,

00:30:15,435 --> 00:30:16,541
it's how you say it.
697

Tone is substantive.

you to mediate my advice,

to care about your job.

You can dispense with the
courtesy, Madam Secretary.

It was less an
invitation than a summons.

Well, that's fine. Neither
of you need to talk.
715

Effective immediately,
the Israeli government
716
00:31:23,430 --> 00:31:25,641
will cease all sorties
into Syrian airspace.

You must be joking.
718
00:31:28,402 --> 00:31:30,713
And Syria will freeze
all Iranian arms shipments
719
00:31:30,737 --> 00:31:33,016
through its territory.
720
00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:34,984
Iran is an ally. Syria
will do no such thing.
721
00:31:35,008 --> 00:31:39,988
You will do it, Adnan,
or I will instigate

the U.N. Security Council,

- to its own people for the slaughter.
- You wouldn't dare.

had a direct involvement in the
destruction of a Russian jet,

deniability, you'll have to face

you both to the wolves

Right away, Madam Secretary.

You're recommending we sign on to
748
00:33:04,107 --> 00:33:06,318
- the ban on cluster bombs.
- Yeah, over the objection
749
00:33:06,342 --> 00:33:08,811
of Secretary Becker and Ellen Hill.
750
00:33:08,812 --> 00:33:10,623
Strenuous objection, I see.
751
00:33:10,647 --> 00:33:12,272
Conrad, it comes down to this.
752
00:33:12,273 --> 00:33:14,618
How can we claim moral leadership
753
00:33:14,642 --> 00:33:18,420
w-when we employ a weapon
that the rest of civilization
754
00:33:18,444 --> 00:33:19,864
has deemed too barbaric to use?
755
00:33:19,865 --> 00:33:23,859
The benefits of having
this... tool in our arsenal
756
00:33:23,883 --> 00:33:27,429
are too small to offset
the risk of misuse
757
00:33:27,453 --> 00:33:29,965
and collateral damage, the
death of almost 30 children
758
00:33:29,989 --> 00:33:31,800
being a prime example.
759
00:33:31,824 --> 00:33:34,302
A powerful moral argument.
760
00:33:34,326 --> 00:33:36,571
But Henry, when I asked
you to take this on,
761
00:33:36,595 --> 00:33:37,973
I didn't realize the scope
762
00:33:37,997 --> 00:33:39,307
of Russia's involvement in this mess.
763
00:33:39,331 --> 00:33:41,276
As long as Moscow has the bomb,
764
00:33:41,300 --> 00:33:43,111
they have a strategic advantage.
765
00:33:43,135 --> 00:33:44,379
Particularly if they're
willing to use it.
766
00:33:44,403 --> 00:33:45,680
And given current events,
767
00:33:45,704 --> 00:33:47,249
- I won't cede an inch to them.
- I understand.
768
00:33:47,273 --> 00:33:49,651
But what if Moscow was
willing to sign on to the ban?
769
00:33:49,675 --> 00:33:52,587
And how precisely are we
going to get them to do that?

777
00:34:07,059 --> 00:34:08,825
It has to do with my role here.
778
00:34:10,094 --> 00:34:12,039
I sometimes feel...

pressured to rubberstamp policies

My friend, we have had a

So let's talk common ground, then.

intentions are slightly misread...

What do you propose?

00:35:56,966 --> 00:36:00,145
That we set an example for our proxies.

Instead of them provoking
us, we provoke them.

A public display of cooperation.

for us to jointly pull back our fleets.

00:36:14,350 --> 00:36:16,461
That's the first domino.
827

What's the second?
828
00:36:18,287 --> 00:36:19,965
Moscow uses its influence to roll back
829
00:36:19,989 --> 00:36:21,300
Iran's footprint in Syria.
830
00:36:21,324 --> 00:36:23,501
And what about your proxy?
831
00:36:23,525 --> 00:36:26,137
No, Israel will stay out of Syria.
832
00:36:26,161 --> 00:36:28,806
And then Russia and
the U.S. will hold talks
833
00:36:28,830 --> 00:36:31,943
about limiting our involvement
in the Syrian civil war.
834
00:36:31,967 --> 00:36:34,845
And if we refuse these terms?
835
00:36:34,869 --> 00:36:37,181
Then even if we dodge
this bullet,
836
00:36:37,205 --> 00:36:39,116
it's a temporary reprieve.
837
00:36:39,140 --> 00:36:43,620
We have this illusion
that our proxies are...
838
00:36:43,644 --> 00:36:45,456
our buffers.
839
00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:49,626
We can offload our conflicts.
840
00:36:49,650 --> 00:36:51,829
But we are our proxies.
841
00:36:51,853 --> 00:36:54,999
We hold each other
accountable for what they do.
842
00:36:55,023 --> 00:36:57,335
Meaning, if we don't reign them in,
843
00:36:57,359 --> 00:37:01,004
our client states will
ultimately drag us into war.
844
00:37:01,028 --> 00:37:03,073
And we can stop that from happening
845
00:37:03,097 --> 00:37:04,741
by setting an example,
846
00:37:04,765 --> 00:37:08,144
taking cluster bombs off the table...
847
00:37:08,168 --> 00:37:10,948
reducing our involvement in Syria.
848
00:37:10,972 --> 00:37:12,549
So...
849
00:37:12,573 --> 00:37:14,785
if the principals behave...
850
00:37:14,809 --> 00:37:17,020
- the proxies will follow.
- Yes.

There is no other choice.

grants from policy issues.

Yeah, but this is different.
861
00:37:41,868 --> 00:37:43,813
This is soulcraft.

00:37:45,105 --> 00:37:47,850
you can't assuage a loss
by giving someone something.

You can only do it by preventing
something from being taken away.

00:38:10,063 --> 00:38:12,074
We realize the futility of our efforts.
873
00:38:12,098 --> 00:38:16,078
Um, nothing we say or do
can... can ease your pain.
874
00:38:16,102 --> 00:38:19,281
But m-maybe there's
something else we can do.
875
00:38:19,305 --> 00:38:21,283
- Uh, in your son's memory.
- (INTERPRETER SPEAKING ARABIC)
876
00:38:21,307 --> 00:38:23,118
In memory of all your boys.
877
00:38:23,142 --> 00:38:25,587
This is a letter of intent signed by
878
00:38:25,611 --> 00:38:27,523
both the U.S. and Russia
in which both countries
879
00:38:27,547 --> 00:38:29,925
agree to join the ban on cluster bombs.
880
00:38:29,949 --> 00:38:32,183
(SPEAKING ARABIC)
881
00:38:37,923 --> 00:38:39,756
So no more cluster bombs?
882
00:38:40,726 --> 00:38:42,825
No, ma'am.
883
00:38:44,296 --> 00:38:47,108
And the children who live
because of this ban will have
884
00:38:47,132 --> 00:38:49,566
- your children to thank.

885
00:38:51,436 --> 00:38:54,082
(SPEAKING ARABIC)
886
00:38:54,106 --> 00:38:55,572
- Thank you.
- (SOBS)
887
00:38:57,409 --> 00:38:58,953
Global warming.
888
00:38:58,977 --> 00:39:02,557
The destruction of the rain forest.
889
00:39:02,581 --> 00:39:06,494
- President Dalton is condemning us all.
- MAN: Yeah!
890
00:39:06,518 --> 00:39:08,062
I'm being punked, right?
891
00:39:08,086 --> 00:39:09,630
(MEN YELLING ON VIDEO)
892
00:39:09,654 --> 00:39:11,765
I tried, sir. I swear.
893
00:39:11,789 --> 00:39:13,067
What about her carrel?
894
00:39:13,091 --> 00:39:15,069
Maggie loves it; she's using it
895
00:39:15,093 --> 00:39:16,825
to do research for her protests.
896
00:39:24,001 --> 00:39:25,967
Knock, knock.
897
00:39:27,238 --> 00:39:28,648
Oat milk latte.
898
00:39:28,672 --> 00:39:31,151
Extra hot.
899
00:39:31,175 --> 00:39:32,986
Consider this a peace offering.
900
00:39:33,010 --> 00:39:34,988
You can't buy my silence.
901
00:39:35,012 --> 00:39:36,889
I'm going to speak truth to power.
902
00:39:36,913 --> 00:39:38,791
And now that power is finally listening,
903
00:39:38,815 --> 00:39:41,161
- I am just getting started.
- Look.
904
00:39:41,185 --> 00:39:43,630
Bringing you to heel,
that's not why I'm here.
905
00:39:43,654 --> 00:39:45,665
I mean, candidly, that's why I came,
906
00:39:45,689 --> 00:39:47,700
but on the way over...
907
00:39:47,724 --> 00:39:49,335
- I got to thinking.
- Thinking?
908
00:39:49,359 --> 00:39:52,827
That's a new trick for
folks in your building.
909
00:39:57,167 --> 00:39:58,678
How long have you been here now?
910
00:39:58,702 --> 00:40:00,579
18 years.
911
00:40:00,603 --> 00:40:02,649
Well, I've been here six.
912
00:40:02,673 --> 00:40:04,450
Which makes me the new guy.
913
00:40:04,474 --> 00:40:06,285
And where I come from,
914
00:40:06,309 --> 00:40:09,555
you introduce yourself
to your neighbors.
915
00:40:09,579 --> 00:40:10,979
I'm Russell.
916
00:40:14,117 --> 00:40:15,862
Is that all, Russell?
917
00:40:15,886 --> 00:40:17,396
Look.
918
00:40:17,420 --> 00:40:19,465
I just wanted to say...
919
00:40:19,489 --> 00:40:21,833
democracy's messy.
920
00:40:21,857 --> 00:40:25,404
But rule one is every
voice should be heard.
921
00:40:25,428 --> 00:40:27,473
And yours has been on the front lines
922
00:40:27,497 --> 00:40:29,041
for a very long time.
923
00:40:29,065 --> 00:40:32,478
And I wanted to thank
you for playing your part
924
00:40:32,502 --> 00:40:37,416
in this... this pageant we
call the American experiment.
925
00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:39,218
Because you matter.
926
00:40:39,242 --> 00:40:40,841
Truly.
927
00:40:44,146 --> 00:40:46,947
If there's ever anything
I can do for you...
928
00:40:49,519 --> 00:40:50,851
Thank you.
929
00:40:51,821 --> 00:40:54,199
Excuse me, I have to finish this sign
930
00:40:54,223 --> 00:40:56,323
before the tour buses come.
931
00:41:09,029 --> 00:41:12,084
Been ages since we've
been on a proper date.
932
00:41:12,108 --> 00:41:14,285
Well, let's calendar one.
933
00:41:14,309 --> 00:41:18,289
In between international crises,
commissions, all-nighters.
934
00:41:18,313 --> 00:41:20,826
Oh, God, it turns me
on when you talk shop.
935
00:41:20,850 --> 00:41:22,749
(LAUGHS)
936
00:41:23,719 --> 00:41:25,463
(SIGHS) I'm broke.
937
00:41:25,487 --> 00:41:26,564
(YELPS)
938
00:41:26,588 --> 00:41:28,600
What?
939
00:41:28,624 --> 00:41:30,167
SpectroCoin went down to zero.
940
00:41:30,191 --> 00:41:31,936
There was a, uh, massive sell-off
941
00:41:31,960 --> 00:41:34,472
as soon as the Syrian crisis died down.
942
00:41:34,496 --> 00:41:36,507
Oh, well, gee,
943
00:41:36,531 --> 00:41:38,776
if I'd known I was
hurting your bottom line,
944
00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:40,111
I would have reevaluated my position
945
00:41:40,135 --> 00:41:42,313
- on preventing World War Three.
- Yeah.
946
00:41:42,337 --> 00:41:43,848
I'm done speculating.
947
00:41:43,872 --> 00:41:46,083
- ELIZABETH: Hmm.
- HENRY: Allow me to speculate.
948
00:41:46,107 --> 00:41:48,286
Someone still owes us
$1,200, and if he doesn't
949
00:41:48,310 --> 00:41:50,588
- find a way to pay us back...
- I already have.
950
00:41:50,612 --> 00:41:53,458
I got a job as a busboy
at Frankie's, so...
951
00:41:53,482 --> 00:41:56,127
Steady income and all
the pizza I can eat.
952
00:41:56,151 --> 00:42:00,465
Good. We'll put you on a payment plan.
953
00:42:00,489 --> 00:42:02,567
I trust you've learned a valuable lesson
954
00:42:02,591 --> 00:42:05,569
- about shortcuts, right?
- Yes.
955
00:42:05,593 --> 00:42:08,806
Always take the ones that don't
depend on your mom playing ball.
956
00:42:08,830 --> 00:42:10,975
- Hey.
- I'm kidding.
957
00:42:10,999 --> 00:42:14,912
I'm rolling OG now, so brick and mortar.
958
00:42:14,936 --> 00:42:17,081
- All the way.
- Good.
959
00:42:17,105 --> 00:42:18,649
Then, uh, grab a sponge
960
00:42:18,673 --> 00:42:20,684
and come over here, we'll train you up
961
00:42:20,708 --> 00:42:23,009
- for your next gig, there, Snoop.
- Yeah.
962
00:42:24,612 --> 00:42:26,623
You know, there is this one currency.
963
00:42:26,647 --> 00:42:28,826
It's called AnarCoin.
Kind of a sure bet.
964
00:42:28,850 --> 00:42:32,118
I mean, I could get us in
on the ground floor if you...
965
00:42:35,656 --> 00:42:37,334
Hey, where's the soap?
966
00:42:37,358 --> 00:42:43,933
