All language subtitles for Madam Secretary S03E13

(door opens)

Oh, I missed my alarm!

- I'm up! I'm up!
- No, no, no. Sorry.

I just went for an early run.

That's right, you have the FBI,

and I have ten more minutes.

Go away, roommate.

Look, I got you one of
those cinnamon rolls you like

from Maggie's.

The kind with the cream cheese on top?

Yeah. Oh.

And a nomination for
the Nobel Peace Prize.

- What?
- Look.

Wait, they put that in the article?

Nice cover photo.

They weren't supposed to
mention the nomination.

It's just a rumor.

Kissinger is so jealous right now.

Geez. What'd they do to my face?

What do you mean?

I look like a creepy plastic doll.

Well, the article is great.

It's all about the
Israel-Iran peace talks.

Look, it-it's nice
you're getting some notice

after all this crazy work
you've been putting in.

I must've worked myself to death.

I mean, I look like a corpse.

What, you think if they didn't
erase all the lines on my face,

- I'd be disappointed.
- Yeah, I...

I think I'm gonna take a shower.

See why the FBI needs me again.

I bet they wouldn't have

worked over Henry Kissinger's face

till he looked like a pressed sheet.

There's a good picture
of Rabbi Lowenthal.

Oh, yeah, I saw that.

What a brilliant idea,
getting Israel and Iranian kids

to play soccer together.

He actually got President Shiraz

and the Israeli prime minister

to agree to go to the
game in Jordan next week.

Guy's better at wrangling
world leaders than I am.

Maybe he should get a
Nobel Peace Prize instead.

Seriously.

Are my... crow's feet that bad

that they need to be erased?

I love every inch of
your beautiful face.

Virginia Field Force.

Pretty much your standard militia group.

Anti-government, little
white supremacy, lots of guns

and tactical gear.

I still don't understand
why you need me.

One of the ex-Covenant of
John members we interviewed

had a cousin in a militia group.

We looked into it.

Couple of ex-COJ members
posted on their Web site.

So the legion of angels
is looking for soldiers.

Makes sense if they're
planning some kind of action.

It's hard to see what the
militia gets out of it.

Well, they both share
the same goal, right?

Burn down the basic
structures of society.

COJ gets guns and know-how,

and militia gets a righteous ideology.

And if COJ does have a
bomb from Rex Mayfield...

They bring even more to the table.

Wow.

So what are you thinking, watch
and wait or send a team in?

We'd love to move in, if
we could only find them.

They were in the mountains near Abingdon

when ATF started tracking
them about six months ago.

But then they pulled up stakes

and got cagey about the new location.

Could they have figured
out ATF was tracking them?

Doesn't look like it.

Ian Conroy.

He's been working the group.

Ex-Marine, deployed
three times to Iraq.

They love this guy.
They want to recruit him.

It could be a trap.

It's the only way we're
gonna find out where they are.

We'll have to take our
chances and be ready.

So now you need me to help ATF Guy

become an expert on apocalyptic
Christianity so he'll fit in.

I love it when you're ahead of me.

And here's the seating
chart for Camp David.

President Shiraz will
enter from the east door.

- Which Israel approved?
- Yes.

I will confirm

with the prime minister's office.

Right. I do not want to
lose this peace deal over

who gets the top bunk.

Sorry, I just saw the seating chart.

Is this right?

Yes. We'll approve
the west entrance with

- Prime Minister Aaronson.
- No, no, no, the table shape.

I spent three days getting both
sides to agree to an oval table.

This is a rectangle.

- It can't be a rectangle.
- That's just the diagram.

The table will be oval.

Can we confirm it's
oval? The actual table.

With Aaronson on the
bulge-y part by the windows.

Y-Yes, I-I will confirm.

And the flowers have to be white.

Hang in there, buddy. Almost there.

No, I know. I'm just...

Exhausted from negotiating

every single detail of a
historic peace agreement.

Uh, Jay, your wife is on the way up.

Who's that?

Tell her

she gets you back as soon
as this thing is signed.

Hours away.

Good morning, ma'am.

I know. NewsSource
Magazine mentioned the rumor

about the Nobel nomination.

I-I don't know how they got that.

Nominations have been
rumored before in the past.

It's not an issue.

I'll gather the staff for the meeting.

About the cover...

You mean that I look
like my own... wax statue?

I told them no retouching,

and I was assured that
we'd get final approval.

Obviously, that didn't happen.

I mean, not that it's bad.

Oh, come on. It's pretty bad.

Are we in here or
what? I-I'm all alone.

Could you give us a minute?

Oh, hey, congratulations on NewsSource.

You're officially trending online.

I am?

It's been, um... positive.

Okay, that was a bad "um."

What did that "um" mean?

It hasn't been as focused on
the peace deal as we'd like.

Some pundit on Twitter's
calling you Madam Sexy-tary.

Could you get back in your crate?

What? It's true.

Frankly, I'm surprised anyone
finds that weird Photoshop sexy.

Oh, no, this is, uh,
more about your blouse.

What are they saying about my blouse?

Hey. I just got your messages.

No, that's okay. I figured
I'd better just bring it.

Uh, you're saving me. Thank
you. I-I just, I don't know

- where my head is.
- Elsewhere.

So, it looks like this
thing could get signed today.

How 'bout dinner at that bistro
you like? What's it called?

Why don't you just let
me know how it goes first.

- Hey, Abby.
- Hey.

Oh, that's a gorgeous dress.

And I am so wearing yoga pants.

Stop it. You're totally working it.

Hey, the car's ready for Camp David.

Go.

Make world peace.

I got to get back to Chloe.

- Thank you.
- Yeah.

Aw, look at that.

Personal life.

I used to have one of those.

Yeah. Me, too.

I'm gonna need some coffee.

Don't you have a car waiting?

Don't you have a staff meeting?

Yes. Frankie's hazelnut roast.

Smells amazing.

Yeah, she brought it back
from Seattle. Get on it.

It goes fast.

Oh. Hey, Kevin.

'Sup?

Hey, Kevin.

I'm Jay. Have we met?

This is Kevin from Budget and Planning.

Guess you guys get a pretty
high security clearance,

coming up from five to take our coffee.

I'm just good at making friends.

You gave that guy floor access?

Yes, I did.

And a member of the board
of regents at UVA invited you

to a reception... something
about the Nobel nomination.

Well, let's not get ahead of ourselves.

President Shiraz,

welcome.

Such a beautiful setting.

It's been the site of
many historic meetings.

I'm hoping today will
add to that history.

We only lack a certain prime minister.

Yes, he will be along any moment,

as will my policy advisor with
our final negotiation framework.

Uh, let's sit.

Thank you.

You got to be kidding me.

It's a small matter of language.

Amin, how long we been at this?

The whole thing is language.

That's like saying we're all just water.

Iran is obviously acknowledging
Israel's legitimacy

by engaging in this agreement.

We simply want to change a few words.

Changing "Iran acknowledges
Israel's right to exist"

to "Iran acknowledges
Israel's existence"

is more than a word
change, it's a firebomb.

We have agreed to pull Quds Forces

from five other countries.

We have submitted ourselves
to the humiliating scrutiny

by the United States
of our defense weapons.

We are cutting ties with
our political allies...

But this is the main
thing that Israel wants.

It's what got them to the
table in the first place.

This is from our Supreme Leader.

If we cannot renegotiate, I
have to resubmit every point

for the ayatollah's reconsideration.

Prime Minister, I am so
sorry about the delay.

It's just a slight hiccup

in the finalizing of
the framework agreement.

Well, we've come a very
long way, Madam Secretary.

I know. We are so
honored to have you here.

And you must be exhausted
from your journey.

So, I tell you what, why don't
you guys go up, get settled

into your cabins,
and... enjoy the scenery.

Dinner at 6:00.

We'll resume talks first
thing in the morning.

Okay?

He's gonna hear about the
"right to exist" issue.

Yeah, I'll walk him through
it tonight at dinner.

Do you know if scotch is kosher?

I hope that I can spin
it so they don't leave.

That's gonna be a hell of a spin.

Not that I doubt your skills.

Still got three days
left on the cease-fire.

Including today.

We'll work on extending
it first thing tomorrow.

Look, I know you've been through
it a million times, but...

Inducements for Israel
to get them to let go

of the "right to exist"
language; I'm on it.

What about the Ashkelon Pipeline?

Maybe we could get Iran
to forgive Israel's debt?

It-It's not... it's not
enough, but I'll try.

You want me to reach out to
Shiraz's staff or do you want...

No, no, I got it. You
got to call your wife.

- Okay.
- And break plans with her again.

Nothing is more important to the future

of Israel than these
peace talks with Iran.

If we can shake hands
with our Muslim brothers,

we will show the world
that anything is possible.

What do you say, Rabbi Lowenthal,

to those who object to any compromise

with a country who refuses
to acknowledge Israel?

What are we compromising?

50 years of enmity, violence,
destruction, isolation?

Try to explain this to children...

Yeah.

Yeah.

You heard?

I'm on with Henry. Hear what?

Rabbi Lowenthal, the guy
planning the soccer game

in Jordan, he just got bombed
at a peace rally in Haifa.

Tell me he survived.

22 demonstrators,

documentary film crew
and the rabbi... all dead.

Henry, I got to call you back.

Well, has anybody taken
responsibility for it?

Not yet, but the bombing was

close to the border with Lebanon.

Hezbollah's been making
noise about the peace deal.

Okay. You take Aaronson's people.

I'm gonna go to Shiraz.

Aaronson may be heading back
to Israel. I just got word.

No. Stall him.

Whoever did this is not
going to kill these talks.

Iran has made so many concessions

throughout these negotiations.

Yes. And for that I'm very grateful.

But your reversal today

on acknowledging
Israel's right to exist...

There's nothing to
be done in this point.

It's out of my control.

You have to know that I
can't ask Israel to give up

its most important deal point

without offering them
something in exchange.

What do you ask now?

Cut all ties to Hezbollah,

political and financial,
effective immediately.

That is outrageous.

Hezbollah hasn't taken
credit for this attack.

But you've already agreed to
end your support for Hezbollah

as soon as the agreement is final.

I'm just asking you to say so now.

It's...

an... an act of empathy
for a country in grief.

For this concession,

Israel would have to
publicly acknowledge

its nuclear weapons program,

- Najid.
- and submit to all the same

inspections Iran must endure.

Effective immediately,
or the cease-fire ends.

It's impossible. It's impossible.

Yet you come to me
to ask the impossible.

Unripened fruit is bitter.

Perhaps it's time to...

to-to admit that none of us
are ready for this agreement.

I'm sorry.

Professor. Here to take
me to Sunday school?

Well, the Covenant of John is a long way

from Sunday school, but sure.

Eh, I'm just messing with you.

Dr. McCord went into

the Covenant of John
compound in Bolivia.

We're lucky to have him work with us.

Did you get a chance
to look at the material

I sent you this morning?

Uh, yeah, a bit.

Bible's pretty crazy, man.

Part of Revelation's enduring power

is its intense imagery and symbolism.

That's why every age has

its own interpretation of it.

Now, there's a strong possibility

that this group's
understanding of the seven seals

will include some reference

to the government siege on
their compound in Bolivia,

so let's start with those verses.

Bring it.

Okay. The opening of the
fourth seal releases what?

Uh...

The four horsemen...

Of the Apocalypse.

And the four horsemen represent?

Uh... John, Paul, George and Ringo?

Ian, uh... I can't stress highly enough

how important it is
that these people feel

you share their beliefs.

Yeah. I'll go over it. I'll be ready.

You can't just read it,
you've got to know it.

They will do anything for this group,

leave their families, even kill,

for what they think this means.

This is a cult, Conroy. There's no ego.

Yeah, I got it.

We're just trying to protect you.

If you go in there unprepared,

it could cost you your life,
not to mention the operation.

Ask me what it's like to come
home from your third deployment,

and you can't hold down a
job 'cause you keep going off,

and the only thing that makes any sense

is what you used to be able
to do defending your country.

I understand these people.

Now, do I personally believe
the federal government

is gonna declare martial
law and take every citizen's

gun away from them? No.

But I guarantee you that is exactly

what every member of this
group will think I believe.

You need to drop that
guy like a hot rock.

And start over with who?

Conroy already built
his contacts online.

That group could have
a bomb ready to go,

and we don't even know where they are.

No. We're sending him in.

Okay. I hear you.
Anything I can do to help.

Thanks for working with him.

Mr. President. Ephraim. I'm
sorry to keep you waiting.

You had a few crises to manage.

Hell of a thing about Rabbi Lowenthal.

I read about him in
your NewsSource article.

Tragic loss.

So what do we know about his attackers?

Haifa's proximity to the Lebanese border

made Hezbollah the immediate
suspect in the bombing.

But we just got word
that Israeli Intelligence

has determined that the culprit

was a member of the ultra-right-wing

orthodox community.

The attacker was Israeli?

Fiercely opposed

to the peace process.

They have security camera footage of him

placing explosives
before the demonstration.

The rhetoric's been so overheated.

Do they have him in custody?

Not yet. Which is why
news of this hasn't broken.

I think I can work with this.

I'm sorry. I've got to
go try and stop a plane.

Prime Minister.

I'm so glad I caught you.

Madam Secretary, I'm sorry we
couldn't sit down at Camp David.

I wanted to express our profound
condolences for your loss.

I am touched by your compassion.

We hope you will bring

Rabbi Lowenthal's
assassin to swift justice.

We understand he's still at large?

It always impresses me the
reach of U.S. Intelligence.

Well... now that we know the attack

wasn't perpetrated by Hezbollah,

was in fact committed by
one of your own citizens,

and isn't there an opportunity

for us to... to finish
these peace talks?

No, no, no. Madam Secretary...

N-No. Maybe not here.

Then maybe when you go to
the soccer game in Jordan.

What better tribute to Rabbi Lowenthal?

No. We cannot continue these talks.

Look, you're pushing
us too far, too fast.

It's turning my countrymen
against each other...

Jews killing Jews.

Ido, if you get on that plane
and the cease-fire expires,

then everything Rabbi
Lowenthal lived for,

all the progress that we have made

for a better future, is gone.

He will have died for nothing.

If we make this deal with Iran

while they still refuse to
acknowledge our right to exist,

then this, too, will refute everything

that Rabbi Lowenthal stood for.

You see, Elizabeth,

these symbols can always be
turned to suit our own purposes.

My greatest purpose
is and always will be

to serve my people.

Thank you for your condolences.

I wasn't able to stop
the prime minister.

He says he left because
of the assassination,

but I am beginning to think that
neither side had any intention

of signing the agreement this week.

For what it's worth, I got confirmation

that it was the Ayatollah

who objected to Israel's right to exist.

At least Shiraz wasn't
hiding behind that.

Are you getting anywhere
trying to work back channels?

Not yet, but I found out

that "Shiva" in "sitting
Shiva" means seven,

so I'm trying to get Iran

to extend the cease-fire
seven days while Israel

mourns Rabbi Lowenthal.

Okay, that's-that's good.

Um, keep me posted, all right?

- Thanks, Jay.
- Sorry.

Hey, Mo. What's up?

I passed on your concerns about
Ian Conroy to the higher-ups.

They want you to be his
handler for the mission.

I can only imagine what
he thinks about that.

He's up for it.

Doggie likes the man with
the rolled-up newspaper.

No, no, no.

He needs someone who believes in him,

and the minute he finds out
that's not me, which he will,

he is gonna flip out,

and that could put the
entire mission at risk.

I hear you, man. All
right, I had to ask.

Okay. Listen, uh,

consulting, whatever you
need, I'm there for you, okay?

Good luck. Bye.

Sounds like somebody's
getting let down easy.

Oh, you ready for this?

Being celebrated for a
Nobel Peace Prize nomination

I haven't gotten and no longer
feel I deserve in the slightest?

- I am so ready.
- Come on.

Madam Secretary. I'm so
honored you could come.

Are you kidding? We're old Wahoos.

We're thrilled to be here.

I'm sorry.

This is my husband Henry
McCord. Nelly Conlon.

Such a pleasure to meet you.

Conlon Hall is my favorite
place to hear music.

Oh, you are so gracious. Call me Nelly.

Oh, do you mind if we get a quick photo?

- I'm sorry to ask.
- No, not at all.

I'm finally catching
up with social media.

Oh, well...

Evolve or die, right?

I suppose you have some
theologian's perspective

on all this cultural narcissism, Henry?

Well, I just think it's an expansion

of self-representation.

I get it.

Spoken like a man who checks
his Facebook page, like, never.

I have Facebook?

I'm gonna get us a drink.

I have to tell you, UVA has
had seven Nobel laureates.

I like to think that I've
figured out a few things

about how to...

move the needle with the committee.

I...

I didn't realize that the
Nobel committee needs lobbying.

I know, you think they're
all off in fjords somewhere.

But with everything online,

any kind of buzz matters.

Like that, uh, NewsSource cover.

- That was fantastic.
- Oh, I'm-I'm not sure

you want some of the
attention that's been getting.

It's a historic peace deal.

If some silly nonsense about your legs

is what gets your message
out there, I say work it.

Bosie!

Is there something online about my legs?

Secretary McCord,

may I introduce Victor Boseman,

Nobel laureate in Economics.

- Oh, cool. It's really nice to meet you.
- Madam Secretary.

Dr. McCord.

Sorry, I'm geeking out a little.

Well, Elizabeth was a math major,

so I'm sure

the geeking is mutual.

What's your theory? I mean, can I ask?

Broadly speaking, it concerns
contract negotiations.

Thank goodness we moved
on from macroeconomics.

I could never

- explain that to anybody.
- Huh.

Basically it's a statistical analysis

of optimal contractual arrangements,

building on Hart and Holmstrom's theory.

Huh.

The idea is to find out if
there's a quantifiable balance

of interdependence that
engages the goodwill

of both parties; and
it turns out there is.

See?

Maybe the whole peace deal
is easier than you think.

Of course, it sounds reductive,

but it-it really does
come down to both parties

having some baseline of
mutual interdependence

with a few very simple,

very clear incentives.

Huh. Is that all?

Gee, Mr. Math.

Silly me, if I'd only just
plugged Iran and Israel

into the right equation, then, well,

they could have been tangoing weeks ago.

Ugh!

Well, to be fair, I don't think

he was implying...

Is any of this really fair, though?

I mean, Iran yanking the most
important piece of a peace deal

hours before we head into
our final negotiations.

I mean, is that really fair?

Definitely not.

Some misguided lunatic

throwing a bomb at a rabbi
he doesn't agree with,

and then 25 other innocent people

get killed along with him.

Is that fair?

But, hey, if I show
just a little more leg,

maybe UVA will get another Nobel Prize.

Hey, kids.

You guys are back early.

Possibly drunk.

Well, it's been a stressful week.

Well, you looked smoking
hot on your magazine cover.

Oh, my God, do you see that?

I mean, even in my own house,
I am appraised like a show pony.

Okay.

All I said was you looked hot.

Alison, it's not a reality show!

Fine. Forget I said anything.

I'm gonna assume this is

somehow different than when
Dad was called "arm candy"

by a magazine, and everybody
was just okay with that.

Yeah, it's different.

Oh, hey. How's Ali?

Oh, she's still freezing me out.

I shouldn't have snapped.

Oh, give yourself a break.

I feel like a failure on every level.

You do realize that just getting
the Israelis and the Iranians

to engage in six weeks
of talks alone is enough

to get you a Peace Prize?

I so don't care about
that prize right now.

Well, whether you care about it or not,

it's honoring something real.

Yeah. I just keep
thinking about something

that Aaronson said when he was leaving.

He said that Rabbi
Lowenthal's death was...

just a symbol that we could all use

for our own political purposes.

It just...

...made it all seem so... empty.

Well, you're not gonna get very far

trying to debunk the power
of symbols with a theologian.

I spent the whole
afternoon trying to explain

to this boneheaded ATF agent why someone

would be willing to give up their life

for something that was
scratched out on papyrus

thousands of years ago.

How'd that go?

Well, I did my part.

Rest is up to them.

It's getting hard to compartmentalize.

You notice that?

I can compartmentalize just fine.

What about you there, Madam Sexy-tary?

Okay, I knew that was a risk.

I just had... Never mind.

Oh, wait. Hang on.

Before you say anything,
tell me you slept.

There was about a half hour in there.

I'd love to negotiate
peace in the same time zone.

Where are we with the cease-fire?

Rabbi Lowenthal's assassination

pretty much shut everything down,

but we've got until tomorrow.

All right, I'm gonna take it from here.

Why don't you try and
get some sleep, okay?

- Good morning, ma'am.
- Morning.

I'm sorry to have to bring
you a bit of bad news.

Well, that never stops anybody, does it?

Well, due to security concerns,

Jordan has decided to
cancel the Iranian/Israeli

youth soccer game that was
organized by Rabbi Lowenthal.

They didn't do that already?

Well, the kids still wanted to
play, in tribute to the rabbi.

But understandably,

Jordan can't take on the
risk of another attack.

Talks are all but dead.

It wouldn't have mattered much anyway.

Sorry.

Yeah, I'm gonna go lie down.

No, no, no, no, hang on.

This might be exactly
the symbol we need.

Can we get the teams here?

Here, uh, where?

D.C. by tomorrow, before
the cease-fire expires?

I mean, we're the
State Department, right?

We can do that?

Well, it might be challenging.

Trying to get two countries

not to go to war with each other.

That is challenging.

Okay, I don't know
about the rest of you,

but after all of the work

that we have put into this peace deal,

I would like to see one
good thing come out of it.

Who's with me?

With you as ever, ma'am.

Yes! Let's bring the
soccer game to D.C.!

We've cleared visas for
all the soccer players,

plus one family member
each, and the coaches.

Oh, great. I assume we have
Valerie to thank for that.

I'm singing at her nephew's
birthday party next month.

Oh, way to work it.

Doing it for shalom.

Okay, I've got the Chronicle

and the Times fighting over a feature.

Who did we want to go with?

- The Chronicle.
- The Times.

Okay, uh, the National

Park Service can provide
a decent-sized soccer field

in Meridian Hill, but
they're kind of killing us

on the last-minute permit fees.

We'll pay it.

Uh, well...

Jay's wife is calling. She says
she's been trying to reach him.

Oh, would someone wake up Jay, please.

Uh, don't. Let him sleep.

He looked like a zombie.

All right, where are
we with transportation?

Unfortunately, the
entire fleet is booked.

Well, let me look into commercial.

Well, there's a larger issue.

Ma'am, we don't have a budget for this.

And I'm not seeing enough to
divert from any other line item

to cover all of these expenses.

Keep trying.

I'm not letting this
get derailed by red tape.

I have a connection down
in Budget and Planning.

Let me see if I can shake
loose some travel funding.

Yeah, I have an angle

I can try for a stadium.

All right, stay with it, everyone.

Yes, ma'am.

Wow. Are you the coffee fairy?

That depends.

Have you been a good little bureaucrat?

This is an unexpected treat.

What can I do for you, Madam Secretary?

Well, I was thinking about your whole

Nobel strategy, and I want
to run something by you.

I always thought diplomacy

is a lot like surfing.

You think you're getting a sweet set,

and the next thing you
know, you're being worked

on some reef you didn't
even know was there.

That's why you got
to talk to the locals.

ELIZABETH And then it hit me.

Maybe we can't save this
peace deal right now,

but what if we could
save this soccer game?

I'm listening.

My point, Kevin, is that
sometimes we need to respond

to an immediate situation, like, say,

making a last-ditch effort
to save a peace deal.

And little things like budgets

don't always allow for
that kind of flexibility.

Bringing the future of
these two countries together

in the land of the free,
home of the brave...

a living demonstration

of Rabbi Lowenthal's
lifelong commitment to peace.

Maybe if you'd come to me at the
beginning of the fiscal quarter

with an R-241 signed by all parties,

- I might have been able to help.
- Mm-hmm.

But there's no way.

There's, like, literally no way.

Could you stop saying "no way"?

I'm sorry. This is the government, man.

Max, how would you like to help
bring peace to the Middle East?

Budget and Planning

was a complete wipeout.

Dude's probably not even a real surfer.

Okay, who is ready for some soccer?!

Nelly Conlon just happened

to find a spare stadium
near Charlottesville.

- Yes!
- Yes!

Ow! Yeah!

It's okay.

Ma'am, I am very sorry, but we are

hung up on travel expenses.

She also happened to
mention a slush fund.

I'm just gonna go make a phone call.

Nelly Conlon taking it to the net.

Don't know if you got my e-mail.

Israel released the
identity of the Haifa bomber.

Yeah, I-I did, which brings
us to our next mission.

Blake, I need you to
contact President Shiraz,

and then after that,
Prime Minister Aaronson.

I want them both at
that game tomorrow, okay?

And-and if we can't
extend the cease-fire?

Well, then they will be seated

across from each other at a stadium

watching their kids play soccer.

Let's see them launch missiles
at each other after that.

And who knows, might even
get those talks going again.

- Okay.
- On it.

Ian?

I came to see you, Dr. McCord,
but they wouldn't let me in.

Well, you know how to reach
me. You should have called.

I just wanted to let
you know that I know now.

I was deceived by my arrogance before.

Now I see.

Well, that's good.

Why don't we go inside?

No, Henry.

I just wanted you to know that I know.

What is it you know?

I know who shall be redeemed

and who shall suffer eternal damnation.

"The four living creatures,
each of them with six wings,

"were covered with eyes inside and out.

"Day and night, they
do not stop exclaiming.

"Holy, holy, holy

"is the Lord God Almighty,

who is, who was, and
who is yet to come."

It's empty. Go ahead and check.

You did a little studying. Bravo.

I can make them believe.

But I need your help.

You've been inside the wire.

You know.

Will you help me?

David Ackerman from The
Chronicle is here, ma'am.

- He brought a photographer.
- Oh, great.

Let's make sure and get
a shot with Nelly Conlon.

We owe her big for this.

Blake, what about POTUS?

Uh, he hopes to make
it here for the kickoff,

but it's unconfirmed.

Here comes Israeli
Prime Minister Aaronson.

And President Shiraz
should be here momentarily.

All right.

Let's just hope

this doesn't somehow
backfire and derail whatever

tenuous peace we had left.

Peanuts?

Representing their home countries

in the spirit of peace,

please welcome our team from Iran.

And our team from Israel.

And now, in honor of
Rabbi Lowenthal, we begin.

How's it looking, Blake?

Uh...

Well, the prime minister
appears... supportive

and engaged, ma'am.

What about Shiraz?

Enjoying...

peanuts and soda.

Well, tell him if he makes the deal

and the sanctions stay lifted,

he could have all the
pop and peanuts he wants.

That's a good thought.

Blake, get-get me my phone, will you?

Nothing about Israel's right to exist?

Nope. We're back to the terms
of the original agreement:

no acknowledging Israel, no
severing ties with Hezbollah,

no pulling Quds Forces
in other countries...

you can have it all.

We just want a cease-fire.

But you're adding another
five years to the agreement?

Yes. Because we have to
give Israel something.

While they submit to zero inspections

because they still won't
acknowledge they have

a nuclear weapons program.

You know what this is?

This is the most I've
seen of my daughter

in the last seven
weeks. I mean, she's two.

We all miss our family.

Then make the deal happen.

It's exactly what your
leaders already agreed to,

with five more years of inspections.

It opens up your economy, it puts Iran

in a newly empowered
position in the Middle East,

and it gets you back in business

with the EU and the rest of the world.

So go sell this to your
boss, and let's all go home.

- Come on, drive it!
- Come on, red, set it up!

Come on... How do we decide
which team we're rooting for?

Iran is willing to totally
revert back to the original deal

plus five more years of IAEA inspections

if Israel will agree to
preserve a cease-fire.

So we give up everything
we negotiated for?

How is this progress?

Because it's the same deal
we had in place before,

only now Israel's part of it.

Iran just wants one more thing.

- What's that?
- Ashkelon pipeline.

Israel pays the
outstanding fines it owes.

No. I can't sell that.

Then tell your leaders
all they have to do

is say they'll pay,
give a first installment

and negotiate the rest later.
Oh, and one other thing...

you're gonna sell some oranges to Iran.

- Oranges?
- Yeah.

Jaffa oranges. Doesn't matter how much.

And Iran's gonna sell
you some pistachios.

I hear they're really good.

I don't get it.

It's a symbol.

Okay?

Sometimes that's...

all it takes.

Yeah!

Wait, wait, how do we tell we won?

- Did we win?
- I don't know. I don't know.

Hey. Look at that, you guys.

Look what's happening.

Oh, ma'am. We may have tears.

That should bode well for Jay.

Where is he?

Yeah, he had something

he had to attend to.

You made it.

Yes, I did.

I take it things went well.

Well, Iran and Israel won't
be firing at each other

anytime soon.

That's amazing. Congratulations.

Awesome. Thank you.

We'll see how their
next round of talks goes,

but we stuck our finger
in the dike anyway.

How about you?

Well, let's see.

I reorganized a toy bin
and got into an argument

with my mother about day care.

What's her problem with day care?

Who knows? She read an article.

What's up?

I miss my life.

Hey, you'll be back to work soon.

It's not just work,
Jay, it's everything.

We are not a family anymore.

I need more than one meal a month,

that has to be rescheduled
three times over

before it even happens.

I know it's been an intense time,

but this is a... temporary condition.

You-you have to keep
in mind the specifics...

No. Don't negotiate with me.

This isn't a deal.

You have, um...

an incredible, world-altering job,

and I would never...
ask you to give that up.

But I just...

don't know if that's what I wanted.

Abby, come on...

I'm not saying anything definitive.

I just...

Whew.

I just need some time apart.

Some time to think.

What are you saying?

Hey. She still on with Aaronson?

Just getting final word.
Looks like it's a go.

Are we good? Are we here?

She's just getting final word.

All right. Wrapping up the call.

Niceties and pleasantries, and...

...we're approved.

Yes.

Yes.

Cease-fire back in place.

And Saint Jay

got us a whole new agreement going.

Congratulations, ma'am.

Oh.

And what's with pistachios and oranges?

I'm definitely gonna get
some questions about that.

Well, just a little...

mutual interdependence thing...

that I got from a Nobel
laureate economist.

Okay.

Grab your mugs, people.

I'm gonna go get some glasses.

- Gentlemen's breakfast.
- Hey, man.

Huh?

Uh, I was wondering,
would it be all right

if I crashed at your
place for a few nights?

Uh, yeah. Course.

Is everything all right?

Uh, yeah.

Hey there.

Hi.

Can't keep me away.

That's true.

But I can charge you for the coffee.

Five dollars. You can
leave it by the pot.

But if you get that requisition
form in for next fiscal quarter,

I may be able to cut you a deal.

Wasn't in the mood anyway.

Ah.

What do you say to a drink?

You think I'm gonna
have a drink with you?

Well, it looks like
you're already starting.

We're celebrating a peace deal.

Iran and Israel. Congrats.

That's what we do.

Pull off world peace
despite zero support

from small-minded
bureaucrats with no vision.

Yeah. So tonight?

Just... text me when you're done.

Sorry.

No, no. Stay, stay.

Is that my face cream?

I only used a little. I
like the way it smells.

Well, it better smell
good; it costs a fortune.

Supposedly, it has
pearls in it or something.

You really don't need that.

Your skin is flawless.

Ugh. No way. I'm having
the worst breakout.

Where?

Nobody can see that

but you.

I'm sorry I said the wrong thing

about your magazine cover.

Baby, you didn't say the wrong thing;

it was everybody else.

I mean...

I just...

I... I want people to talk
about what I'm trying to do,

not about how I look doing it.

You know?

That must suck.

Yeah, it... sucks for everybody.

I mean...

it's fun to feel pretty.

But when that's the only
thing the world is looking for,

they miss so much.

And you do not have a zit.

I am telling you,

there's nothing there. Seriously.

I'm really proud of you for
being such an awesome diplomat.

And... I thought you looked
really great in that skirt.

Can I say that?

You're really beautiful, you know that?
