100:01:31,525 --> 00:01:35,435Sync and corrections by n17t01www.addic7ed.com

200:01:45,689 --> 00:01:50,778

He is a classless, graceless,shameless barbarian.

300:01:50,861 --> 00:01:53,571What he did to you, Elizabeth,it was disgusting.

400:01:53,656 --> 00:01:55,240- Awful.- Just vile.

500:01:55,323 --> 00:01:57,450- Can you pass the plate of...- Yeah.

600:01:57,534 --> 00:01:58,827But why didn't you tell us?

700:01:58,911 --> 00:02:01,789The thought of you fighting this alone,

all those years...

800:02:01,872 --> 00:02:04,207I didn't want pity.

900:02:04,291 --> 00:02:05,626Is it true that they were arguing?

1000:02:05,709 --> 00:02:08,962

No, she came down here to be with me.

1100:02:09,046 --> 00:02:12,382Of course, we didn't expect thatit was gonna be made a public display.

1200:02:12,465 --> 00:02:16,845I guess he thought that wasthe best way to dispel the rumors.

13

00:02:16,929 --> 00:02:19,056That man does not deserve to be president.


2/44

1400:02:19,139 --> 00:02:22,100I've never wantedto speak ill of him, Elizabeth,

1500:02:22,184 --> 00:02:24,937

but when I think of the wayhe's treated you and Claire...

1600:02:25,020 --> 00:02:27,439Oh, stop now.He is still her son-in-law.

1700:02:27,522 --> 00:02:29,524No, Bar's right.

1800:02:29,607 --> 00:02:32,152He doesn't deserve to be president.

1900:02:33,111 --> 00:02:36,364You could... all help me, actually.

2000:02:36,448 --> 00:02:38,075- Anything.- Just say the word.

2100:02:39,743 --> 00:02:41,369Heather Dunbar.

2200:02:42,537 --> 00:02:44,331We should be supporting her.

2300:02:45,248 --> 00:02:47,375With our checkbooks.

2400:02:47,459 --> 00:02:49,544You really want him to lose?

2500:02:49,627 --> 00:02:53,631When he loses,Claire can begin her own career...

2600:02:54,341 --> 00:02:57,052which is far more important to me.

2700:02:58,053 --> 00:03:00,555I don't know if we can


3/44

really make a difference, but...

2800:03:00,638 --> 00:03:03,892I'd rather do more than justsit around and bad-mouth him.

2900:03:03,976 --> 00:03:05,936So, we just write a check?

3000:03:06,519 --> 00:03:09,022Now, Francis can't know.

3100:03:09,106 --> 00:03:13,986I mean, our donationswill have to be... once removed.

3200:03:19,407 --> 00:03:21,159That amendmenthas stalled for years.

3300:03:21,243 --> 00:03:23,036Because we didn't have someonein Veterans Affairs.

3400:03:23,120 --> 00:03:25,288

It isn't a veterans issue.It's public health.

3500:03:25,372 --> 00:03:26,539That's not my specialty.

3600:03:26,623 --> 00:03:29,417Wait, you're telling me you don't knowanyone who's had breast cancer?

3700:03:29,501 --> 00:03:32,170I meanin terms of legislation.

3800:03:32,254 --> 00:03:33,756Fifty percent more.

3900:03:33,839 --> 00:03:37,050That's how many more black women dieof breast cancer than white women.

4000:03:37,134 --> 00:03:40,137


4/44

In our district,it's higher than the murder rate.

4100:03:41,388 --> 00:03:42,806Help us get this clinic.

4200:03:42,890 --> 00:03:45,142I don't deny that it's an important issue,

4300:03:45,225 --> 00:03:47,644but I have to pick and choosewhat I support.

4400:03:47,728 --> 00:03:50,856You're in a tight race back home,

Congresswoman.

4500:03:50,939 --> 00:03:53,108We'll set up a super PAC.

4600:03:53,191 --> 00:03:55,027Three million dollars.

4700:03:56,111 --> 00:03:58,030You did this

without talking to me?

4800:03:58,113 --> 00:03:59,740Claire and I spoke at length, Mother.

4900:03:59,823 --> 00:04:00,824Claire?

5000:04:02,159 --> 00:04:04,787You're calling the First Ladyby her given name, now?

5100:04:04,870 --> 00:04:07,539Well, and I would hopeyou would, too, Congresswoman.

5200:04:07,622 --> 00:04:09,707You went behind my back, Mrs. Underwood.

53

00:04:09,792 --> 00:04:11,960I'm not asking for a full endorsement.


5/44

5400:04:13,086 --> 00:04:17,090I'm just asking for your blessingon Celia delaying her run.

5500:04:17,174 --> 00:04:21,136

And of course,a promise to not campaign against me.

5600:04:21,219 --> 00:04:23,721Jackie Sharp's big on Dunbar.

5700:04:23,806 --> 00:04:25,098Why would she help you?

58

00:04:25,182 --> 00:04:27,600This money isn't directly linked to us.

5900:04:27,684 --> 00:04:31,897You mean the president's comfortableputting money in Jackie's war chest?

6000:04:31,980 --> 00:04:34,649He is,but we have to keep this quiet.

6100:04:34,732 --> 00:04:38,528There can't be any communicationbetween your office and his.

6200:04:43,616 --> 00:04:46,161- Speech?- Seth put in your latest edits.

6300:04:46,244 --> 00:04:48,038Once you approve,we'll send it to the teleprompters.

6400:04:48,121 --> 00:04:50,999- Has she arrived yet?- A few minutes ago.

6500:04:53,043 --> 00:04:54,461Please sit down.

66

00:04:56,296 --> 00:04:58,924If Jackie gets cold feet,we can't leave her any choice.


6/44

6700:04:59,007 --> 00:05:01,051I'm already on top of that.

6800:05:02,760 --> 00:05:03,761

How?

6900:05:03,846 --> 00:05:07,850They always use the same hotel.I've got a guy set up across the street.

7000:05:08,851 --> 00:05:10,894I'm assuming you're being careful.

71

00:05:10,978 --> 00:05:13,521I'm not just a tech outfit.I can go old school, too.

7200:05:14,564 --> 00:05:17,609Ma'am?We have lunch prepared for you.

7300:05:21,196 --> 00:05:22,906This is impressive.

7400:05:24,407 --> 00:05:27,577Well, soak it up while you can.We won't be here long.

7500:05:27,660 --> 00:05:28,954I'll be right back.

7600:06:26,886 --> 00:06:29,973Anatoly Rostropov.His empire's worth 30 billion.

7700:06:30,057 --> 00:06:31,849Petrov had him killed last night.

7800:06:31,934 --> 00:06:34,894Stanislav Ustravich,founder of Turkas Oil.

7900:06:34,978 --> 00:06:36,771

Found dead early this morning.

80


7/44

00:06:36,854 --> 00:06:39,691Igor Milkin, media tycoonworth 24 billion.

8100:06:39,774 --> 00:06:41,776Very outspoken against Petrov

8200:06:41,859 --> 00:06:44,321after the government seizedhis TV stations and newspapers.

8300:06:44,404 --> 00:06:47,574His private plane landed in Bangor, Maine,two hours ago.

84

00:06:47,657 --> 00:06:49,617We've got him quarantined on the tarmac.

8500:06:49,701 --> 00:06:52,829He's seeking political asylum.Says he's in fear for his life.

8600:06:52,912 --> 00:06:55,958We believe they've beenformulating a plan to unseat Petrov.

8700:06:56,833 --> 00:06:59,711Brutus, Cassius,and the one that got away.

8800:06:59,794 --> 00:07:02,339Moscow's adamantwe send him back immediately.

8900:07:02,422 --> 00:07:03,423Then send him back.

9000:07:03,506 --> 00:07:06,259I don't want the State of the Unionovershadowed by some asylum dispute.

9100:07:06,343 --> 00:07:07,594He's Petrov's problem, not ours.

9200:07:07,677 --> 00:07:11,098

Legally, sir, we are obligatedto process his asylum request.


8/44

9300:07:11,181 --> 00:07:13,641- Don't tell me the press knows he's here.- No, sir.

9400:07:13,725 --> 00:07:16,728

We jammed communications on his planeas soon as it entered U.S. airspace.

9500:07:16,811 --> 00:07:18,313Then we don't have a problem, do we?

9600:07:18,396 --> 00:07:20,232It's likely he'll be killedif we send him back.

9700:07:20,315 --> 00:07:22,817So be it. He tried to slay a dragonand he missed the mark.

9800:07:22,900 --> 00:07:23,901Now he's gotta face the fire.

9900:07:23,986 --> 00:07:26,488Our fear is more killings,more company seizures.

10000:07:26,571 --> 00:07:29,491That leads to a run on the banks,collapse of the ruble, default on debts.

10100:07:29,574 --> 00:07:30,617And we already know

10200:07:30,700 --> 00:07:33,370he's been back-channelingabout a bailout with the IMF.

10300:07:33,453 --> 00:07:35,788Well, if you have a proposal to make,then make it quickly.

10400:07:35,872 --> 00:07:38,291- I have a speech to prep for.- Yes, sir.

10500:07:38,375 --> 00:07:43,213Last year you wore the taupe,


9/44

so maybe this is too similar?

10600:07:48,385 --> 00:07:49,636Come in.

107

00:07:50,887 --> 00:07:53,265I was able to get Mrs. Hale on the phone.

10800:07:53,348 --> 00:07:56,059Oh, great. Uh, could you excuse mefor a moment?

10900:08:01,898 --> 00:08:03,900- Mother?- You doing okay, Mrs. Hale?

11000:08:03,984 --> 00:08:05,277Yes, thank you.

11100:08:06,194 --> 00:08:08,113Who was that?

11200:08:08,196 --> 00:08:11,283Oh, um...

11300:08:11,366 --> 00:08:12,993I'm treating myself to a pedicure.

11400:08:14,869 --> 00:08:16,954Nobody can hear me.

11500:08:17,039 --> 00:08:18,956You wanted to talk?

11600:08:19,041 --> 00:08:22,377Yes, I wanted to thank you,for all of your help.

11700:08:22,460 --> 00:08:25,297Uh, it looks like the congresswomanis leaning toward a yes.

11800:08:25,380 --> 00:08:28,716You know, I was thinking,

when you run,

119


10/44

00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:31,011you should useyour maiden name instead.

12000:08:31,094 --> 00:08:33,138Mother, I couldn't do that.

It would look bad.

12100:08:33,221 --> 00:08:37,142Mmm... Well, then how about if you...

12200:08:38,143 --> 00:08:41,563if you use Claire Hale-Underwood?

12300:08:41,646 --> 00:08:43,940

That has a nice ring to it.

12400:08:44,024 --> 00:08:45,567Maybe.

12500:08:45,650 --> 00:08:48,361- Have you seen him yet?- No, not yet.

12600:08:50,072 --> 00:08:51,614

What are you gonna wear tonight?

12700:08:51,698 --> 00:08:53,783I was just deciding that now, actually.

12800:08:53,866 --> 00:08:56,161Something dark, I hope.

12900:08:56,244 --> 00:08:58,746Well, it's between black and ivory,and to tell you the truth,

13000:08:58,830 --> 00:09:00,165this ivory is so beautiful--

13100:09:00,248 --> 00:09:02,959Oh, for God's sakes,don't wear ivory.

132

00:09:03,043 --> 00:09:07,047Even with your figure,it'll accentuate all the wrong places.


11/44

13300:09:15,263 --> 00:09:17,140Are you going to watch the speech?

13400:09:17,224 --> 00:09:18,225

Mother?

13500:09:18,308 --> 00:09:20,060Yes, I'm gonna...

13600:09:20,143 --> 00:09:23,063I'm gonna have Michaelput a TV in the bedroom.

137

00:09:24,231 --> 00:09:26,941Mrs. Underwood,the president is ready for you.

13800:09:27,024 --> 00:09:28,068I'll be right out.

13900:09:29,319 --> 00:09:30,945Mother, I have to go.

140

00:09:31,028 --> 00:09:34,407Yes, I-- Of course.I'm sure you must be very busy.

14100:09:34,491 --> 00:09:35,783I'll see you when I get home?

14200:09:36,784 --> 00:09:38,745If I'm asleep...

14300:09:38,828 --> 00:09:40,330Then I'll see you in the morning.

14400:09:41,289 --> 00:09:42,874Goodbye, Mother.

14500:09:42,957 --> 00:09:45,502Bye. Wear the black!

146

00:09:52,134 --> 00:09:54,761I don't want eventhe slightest chance this gets out.


12/44

14700:09:54,844 --> 00:09:57,013We set up a perimeter.And we'll cover the tail number.

148

00:09:57,097 --> 00:09:59,599Good. Set up a call with Petrov,for after the speech.

14900:09:59,682 --> 00:10:01,143It'll be 5:00 a.m. in Moscow.

15000:10:01,226 --> 00:10:02,769Oh, I guarantee he'll be watching.

15100:10:02,852 --> 00:10:05,855Sir?I think you should take this.

15200:10:05,938 --> 00:10:06,981Excuse me.

15300:10:10,152 --> 00:10:11,653Hello, Congresswoman.

15400:10:24,249 --> 00:10:26,959Sorry for the delay.Please sit down.

15500:10:28,336 --> 00:10:29,921Did you get the earrings?

15600:10:30,004 --> 00:10:31,173I did.Thank you.

15700:10:31,256 --> 00:10:32,840My mother's.Two-carat diamonds.

15800:10:32,924 --> 00:10:34,091For tonight.

15900:10:34,176 --> 00:10:35,677

There's nothingquite like diamond earrings.


13/44

16000:10:35,760 --> 00:10:36,761Shall we begin?

16100:10:38,513 --> 00:10:41,141Uh, this year, we're handling

the arrival a bit differently.

16200:10:41,224 --> 00:10:44,060You'll be escorted to the rotundafor a photo op with the leadership

16300:10:44,144 --> 00:10:46,354before going to the holding room.

164

00:10:46,438 --> 00:10:49,649I don't need to go to the holding room.You can take me directly to the gallery.

16500:10:49,732 --> 00:10:52,277Yes, that's fine.Whatever the First Lady prefers.

16600:10:52,360 --> 00:10:54,362And we'll needtwo separate motorcades after.

16700:10:54,446 --> 00:10:56,573I'll be going straight to the airport.

16800:10:56,656 --> 00:10:58,533- Two motorcades, then.- Yes, sir.

16900:10:59,451 --> 00:11:01,411I'd like to brief youon the list of special guests attending--

17000:11:01,494 --> 00:11:02,829This all seems pretty straightforward.

17100:11:02,912 --> 00:11:04,289I'm good if you are.

17200:11:04,372 --> 00:11:06,499

Yes, I'm fine.Thank you so very much.


14/44

17300:11:11,504 --> 00:11:12,755Do you have a moment?

17400:11:16,384 --> 00:11:17,760How's Elizabeth?

17500:11:17,844 --> 00:11:19,221She sends her regards.

17600:11:19,304 --> 00:11:20,972I'll bet she does.

17700:11:21,055 --> 00:11:22,307And the campaign?

17800:11:23,641 --> 00:11:25,268Still exploring viability.

17900:11:26,311 --> 00:11:27,562Doris isn't on board yet?

18000:11:27,645 --> 00:11:29,231Uh, we'll see.

18100:11:29,314 --> 00:11:30,648What have you offered her?

18200:11:32,108 --> 00:11:34,819Well, I want to put togethera solid campaign strategy with LeAnn

18300:11:34,902 --> 00:11:37,154before engaging her again.

18400:11:37,239 --> 00:11:40,992Well, if you need my help, let me know.She and I were very close when I was whip.

18500:11:41,075 --> 00:11:44,496- You've got a lot on your plate.- No, it's no trouble at all.

18600:11:44,579 --> 00:11:46,122

I'll let you know.

187


15/44

00:11:46,205 --> 00:11:47,624See you tonight.

18800:12:03,222 --> 00:12:04,432You ready to prep, sir?

18900:12:04,516 --> 00:12:07,226- I need to make some changes.- I'll call the speech writers.

19000:12:07,310 --> 00:12:10,062No, I wanna do these myself.And track down Calista.

19100:12:10,146 --> 00:12:11,814

We have to make roomfor one more guest.

19200:12:11,898 --> 00:12:12,982Yes, sir.

19300:12:37,299 --> 00:12:39,301Oh! Ah.

19400:12:39,384 --> 00:12:40,718

What's that?

19500:12:40,802 --> 00:12:43,346I'm having it removed.

19600:12:45,598 --> 00:12:48,393Well, that's too bad.I liked it.

19700:12:48,476 --> 00:12:50,019Hmm, time to move on.

19800:12:50,102 --> 00:12:51,438From what?

19900:12:52,772 --> 00:12:54,982From the me that needed a tattoo.

20000:12:56,150 --> 00:12:57,569

I don't have much time.

201


16/44

00:12:58,653 --> 00:13:00,780When do you have to be at the Capitol?

20200:13:00,863 --> 00:13:02,907Less than an hour.

20300:13:04,033 --> 00:13:06,202- Whiskey or vodka?- Vodka.

20400:13:09,831 --> 00:13:11,999How well do you know Doris Jones?

20500:13:12,083 --> 00:13:16,796Oh, uh, met her a few times.

I don't know her that well, though.

20600:13:16,879 --> 00:13:18,590- Why?- Her daughter, Celia,

20700:13:18,673 --> 00:13:22,301wants me to help them get appropriationsfor a breast cancer clinic.

208

00:13:22,385 --> 00:13:26,013In return, they want to pad my campaignwith Texas money.

20900:13:26,097 --> 00:13:28,683- How much?- Three million.

21000:13:28,766 --> 00:13:30,142To start.

21100:13:30,226 --> 00:13:32,354Her district doesn't havethat kind of money.

21200:13:32,437 --> 00:13:35,189Celia says they're courting donorsfrom outside the 30th.

21300:13:35,272 --> 00:13:39,151

But one of my aides heardthat Claire Underwood and LeAnn Harvey


17/44

21400:13:39,235 --> 00:13:41,821were in Jones' office today.

21500:13:42,989 --> 00:13:44,657Huh...

21600:13:44,741 --> 00:13:46,283LeAnn's someone I know.

21700:13:48,202 --> 00:13:50,955Glendon Hill was courting hera few years ago.

21800:13:51,038 --> 00:13:52,415

Did she turn you down?

21900:13:53,332 --> 00:13:54,959We couldn't afford her.

22000:13:56,669 --> 00:13:59,213Look, I know you're out of the game,but this is a lot of money.

22100:13:59,296 --> 00:14:02,008

If it's legit, it could really help me.But if it's not, I--

22200:14:02,091 --> 00:14:04,677I'll talk to LeAnnand see what I can find out.

22300:14:06,012 --> 00:14:07,013Here.

22400:14:09,140 --> 00:14:10,975I want to taste you first.

22500:14:51,641 --> 00:14:53,267Hey!

22600:15:09,325 --> 00:15:11,202This is a special report.

23200:15:26,551 --> 00:15:28,135You didn't eat your lunch,Mrs. Hale.

23300:15:28,219 --> 00:15:30,096Yeah, well, I didn't feel well.

23400:15:30,179 --> 00:15:31,806Then you really should eat dinner.Your medication--

23500:15:31,889 --> 00:15:34,183Please don't make meask you again, Michael.

19/44

next to you.

24100:16:24,316 --> 00:16:28,320Mr. Speaker,the President of the United States.

24200:17:08,986 --> 00:17:12,239- Interesting place to watch the SOTU.- Ah.

24300:17:12,323 --> 00:17:14,992It's more fun this way.You know, hanging with the hoi polloi.

24400:17:17,036 --> 00:17:18,746

So, what brings you to D.C.?

24500:17:18,830 --> 00:17:21,791Well, all of Congress in town,it's good for hustling work.

24600:17:21,874 --> 00:17:24,460Since when do you hustle?You turn people away.

247

00:17:24,544 --> 00:17:26,713How'd you know I was in town?

24800:17:26,796 --> 00:17:29,090I might be retired,but I still have my ear to the ground.

24900:17:30,257 --> 00:17:33,553So that's true? The great Remy Dantonhas hung up his jersey?

25000:17:33,636 --> 00:17:37,014I've never felt better.

25100:17:37,098 --> 00:17:39,475- Don't tell me this is a social visit.- No.

25200:17:40,142 --> 00:17:42,144- Well, if it isn't business...

- It's business.

253


20/44

00:17:42,228 --> 00:17:43,855- Members of Congress...- Okay.

25400:17:43,938 --> 00:17:45,356- ...I have the high privilege...

- So...

25500:17:45,439 --> 00:17:48,150- Oh, hold on. The show is starting.- ...of presenting to you,

25600:17:48,234 --> 00:17:49,986the President of the United States.

257

00:18:01,956 --> 00:18:02,957Thank you.

25800:18:04,709 --> 00:18:05,835Thank you so much.

25900:18:07,419 --> 00:18:11,382Thank you. Mr. Speaker,Mr. Vice President,

260

00:18:11,465 --> 00:18:15,177members of Congress,my fellow Americans.

26100:18:15,261 --> 00:18:16,721One year ago,

26200:18:16,804 --> 00:18:19,849when I gave this addressfor the first time,

26300:18:19,932 --> 00:18:23,019it was during a very different periodfor our country.

26400:18:23,770 --> 00:18:27,273Our nation was recoveringfrom a political scandal

26500:18:27,356 --> 00:18:30,234

and a trade crisis with China.

266


21/44

00:18:30,317 --> 00:18:34,781Before you stood a presidentno one had elected.

26700:18:34,864 --> 00:18:39,661But that same man stands before you now,

and the darkness is behind us.

26800:18:39,744 --> 00:18:43,039The state of the union is bright,and getting brighter.

26900:18:51,005 --> 00:18:52,840We've had our challenges, yes.

270

00:18:52,924 --> 00:18:54,717Particularly with Russia.

27100:18:54,801 --> 00:18:57,679There were some tense moments,to be sure,

27200:18:57,762 --> 00:19:00,597and yet we overcame those tensions.

273

00:19:00,682 --> 00:19:03,976President Petrovlet us continue to build trust

27400:19:04,060 --> 00:19:07,271and show that we've learnedfrom our experiences last year.

27500:19:07,354 --> 00:19:10,566And I'd personally like to acknowledgethe First Lady,

27600:19:10,650 --> 00:19:14,654who led the wayin repairing those burned bridges.

27700:19:22,203 --> 00:19:24,914She's getting more applausethan the president.

278

00:19:24,997 --> 00:19:26,498Good for you, isn't it?


22/44

27900:19:28,084 --> 00:19:30,252Quite a high-profile client.

28000:19:30,336 --> 00:19:31,921Who told you that?

28100:19:32,004 --> 00:19:35,216- Just a guess.- No, you guessed wrong.

28200:19:37,885 --> 00:19:40,888So what do you knowabout big Texas donors...

283

00:19:40,972 --> 00:19:42,849who care enoughabout a poor Dallas district

28400:19:42,932 --> 00:19:45,852to donate moneyto a campaign in California?

28500:19:45,935 --> 00:19:47,186That went right over my head.

28600:19:48,437 --> 00:19:51,273First Lady was in Dallas.You were in Dallas.

28700:19:51,357 --> 00:19:52,942The First Lady is here.

28800:19:53,025 --> 00:19:54,777Now you're here.

28900:19:54,861 --> 00:19:57,864I think you have far too much timeon your hands, Remy.

29000:19:57,947 --> 00:20:01,200Your fingerprintsare all over this money.

29100:20:09,751 --> 00:20:12,044

You're working for Jackie Sharp now?

292


23/44

00:20:12,128 --> 00:20:14,338No. Just friends.

29300:20:16,257 --> 00:20:19,051- Just friends, huh?- Yeah.

29400:20:21,804 --> 00:20:24,265I think your fingerprintsare all over her.

29500:20:27,434 --> 00:20:28,602How about this?

29600:20:30,062 --> 00:20:33,024

You don't poke around in my shit...

29700:20:33,941 --> 00:20:35,985and I won't poke around in yours.

29800:20:37,069 --> 00:20:40,197It was good to see you, Remy.Don't get too soft in retirement.

29900:20:44,035 --> 00:20:45,494

Now, it's considered uncouth

30000:20:45,577 --> 00:20:47,663for a presidentwho's in the midst of a campaign,

30100:20:47,747 --> 00:20:51,250to talk directly aboutthe upcoming election, but tonight,

30200:20:51,333 --> 00:20:52,584I feel compelled.

30300:20:52,668 --> 00:20:54,921Because the votes our electorate casts

30400:20:55,004 --> 00:20:59,091during the current primariesand the general election in November

30500:20:59,175 --> 00:21:03,512will have a profound impact


24/44

on everyone in this room.

30600:21:03,595 --> 00:21:09,185Some of us, myself included,may find ourselves out of a job.

30700:21:09,268 --> 00:21:13,480If we want to keep our jobs,we have to listen to the American people.

30800:21:13,564 --> 00:21:16,776We have to work harder!We have to deliver!

30900:21:21,238 --> 00:21:24,075

Just like Doris Jones.

31000:21:24,158 --> 00:21:27,954She has kept her job in Congressfor 34 years

31100:21:28,037 --> 00:21:31,540because she never relentedin the face of adversity.

312

00:21:31,623 --> 00:21:36,253In fact, just today, she called meabout a breast cancer clinic

31300:21:36,337 --> 00:21:39,673she has been fighting forover the past decade.

31400:21:39,756 --> 00:21:41,175Now, her plan is bold.

31500:21:41,258 --> 00:21:44,804A VA hospital expansionopen to the general public,

31600:21:44,887 --> 00:21:46,430financed by federal money.

31700:21:46,513 --> 00:21:51,393A bold plan that will significantly

increase successful diagnoses

318


25/44


26/44

33100:23:02,589 --> 00:23:04,466More leaders like Doris Jones.

33200:23:05,092 --> 00:23:07,553

And when she retiresat the end of this term,

33300:23:07,636 --> 00:23:10,139I'm delighted to saythat her daughter, Celia,

33400:23:10,222 --> 00:23:15,519will run for the open seat to continuedelivering just like her mother has.

33500:23:15,602 --> 00:23:17,771No fucking way.

33600:23:21,858 --> 00:23:25,404And I, for one, will support yourcandidacy with everything I've got.

33700:23:25,487 --> 00:23:27,614And I know Claire will, as well.

33800:23:33,245 --> 00:23:35,164Texans are tenacious.

33900:23:35,247 --> 00:23:39,126I'm proud to be married to one,and I'm proud to have served with one,

34000:23:39,210 --> 00:23:40,461like Congresswoman Jones.

34100:23:40,544 --> 00:23:43,089Thank you, Doris,for all your years of service,

34200:23:43,172 --> 00:23:46,217and thank you, Celia,for picking up the mantle.

343

00:24:04,443 --> 00:24:06,653Doris saidher daughter spoke out of turn,


27/44

34400:24:06,737 --> 00:24:09,865that she didn't know about the dealshe was brokering with Underwood.

345

00:24:09,948 --> 00:24:11,742Did you connect with LeAnn?

34600:24:14,370 --> 00:24:16,372No, I didn't.

34700:24:16,455 --> 00:24:18,165She said she couldn't meetuntil tomorrow.

34800:24:18,249 --> 00:24:19,958Well, I guessthere's no point now, anyway.

34900:24:20,042 --> 00:24:21,960If the White House isorchestrating the funding,

35000:24:22,044 --> 00:24:23,920Underwood's not gonna want my help.

35100:24:24,005 --> 00:24:26,590Fuck!I really could've used that money.

35200:24:26,673 --> 00:24:29,260Well, when it looks too good to be true...

35300:24:29,343 --> 00:24:30,719Yeah, I know.

35400:24:31,845 --> 00:24:33,430When am I gonna see you again?

35500:24:34,348 --> 00:24:37,143Um... I don't know.

35600:24:38,644 --> 00:24:41,730I've been... feeling a bit stir-crazy.

35700:24:43,065 --> 00:24:45,192


28/44

If I'm retired,I should probably travel some.

35800:24:46,152 --> 00:24:48,237Well, you could travel to California.

35900:24:49,280 --> 00:24:51,823I'll be there more than hereuntil November.

36000:24:51,907 --> 00:24:53,075Yeah, maybe.

36100:24:54,743 --> 00:24:56,078Or don't.

36200:24:57,204 --> 00:24:58,664You know how to reach me.

36300:25:19,435 --> 00:25:20,644Do you think it was Remy?

36400:25:20,727 --> 00:25:23,189Highly doubtful.I made it clear what we knew.

36500:25:23,272 --> 00:25:24,565He knows you have proof?

36600:25:24,648 --> 00:25:26,983He knows that I know.Not that I have proof.

36700:25:27,068 --> 00:25:28,860Maybe we shouldn't haveplayed that card yet.

36800:25:28,944 --> 00:25:31,280Remy was connecting the dots.

36900:25:31,363 --> 00:25:33,157I needed to put the brakes on him.

37000:25:33,240 --> 00:25:36,118

Well, if it wasn't him,Doris must've gone to Francis himself.


29/44

37100:25:36,202 --> 00:25:37,369She saw an opening and--

37200:25:37,453 --> 00:25:39,205Ma'am,

there's been a change of plans.

37300:25:39,288 --> 00:25:41,790Uh, hold on.What change of plans?

37400:25:41,873 --> 00:25:43,834We're taking you back to the White House.

375

00:25:43,917 --> 00:25:45,669No, we're going to Andrews.

37600:25:45,752 --> 00:25:47,754I'm sorry,this is direct from the president.

37700:25:50,257 --> 00:25:51,967This is not gonna beas difficult as it seems.

37800:25:52,050 --> 00:25:53,927Now, Terry's gonna be in touchwith Veteran Affairs

37900:25:54,010 --> 00:25:55,721first thing tomorrowto draft an amendment.

38000:25:55,804 --> 00:25:58,765And if the Republicans give usany resistance in committee,

38100:25:58,849 --> 00:26:00,267I'll start making calls.

38200:26:00,351 --> 00:26:03,104No reason why this can't get to the floorbefore the end of the session.

383

00:26:03,187 --> 00:26:05,356Well, thank you, Mr. President.


30/44

38400:26:05,439 --> 00:26:08,066Thank yourself.You played this well.

38500:26:08,150 --> 00:26:09,401

How did you play it?

38600:26:09,485 --> 00:26:11,320Well, now, that's our little secret,isn't it?

38700:26:11,403 --> 00:26:12,779I'll walk you out.

388

00:26:12,863 --> 00:26:15,866Uh, Mr. President, I got this.

38900:26:23,081 --> 00:26:24,416Oh, Claire.

39000:26:25,542 --> 00:26:28,462Didn't the presidentmake the most wonderful speech?

391

00:26:28,545 --> 00:26:31,257Oh, he certainly did.

39200:26:31,340 --> 00:26:33,842And I thank youfor convincing the president

39300:26:33,925 --> 00:26:36,553to mention Celia in his remarks.

39400:26:36,637 --> 00:26:38,430Well, it was my pleasure.

39500:26:39,681 --> 00:26:40,932- Good night.- Good night.

39600:26:41,016 --> 00:26:42,393Good night, Claire.

39700:27:10,337 --> 00:27:11,838We had a deal.


31/44

39800:27:11,922 --> 00:27:12,964I showed up.

39900:27:13,048 --> 00:27:16,051

And used that opportunityto undermine the campaign.

40000:27:16,134 --> 00:27:17,636Why didn't you just ask me?

40100:27:17,719 --> 00:27:19,305If you needed the clinicto convince Doris--

40200:27:19,388 --> 00:27:20,597You don't want me to run, Francis.

40300:27:20,681 --> 00:27:23,725That's right, I don't.But we'd reached an understanding.

40400:27:23,809 --> 00:27:26,437I think you saidwhat you wanted me to hear.

40500:27:26,520 --> 00:27:27,938Well, then you misread me.

40600:27:30,607 --> 00:27:33,610I am looking out for myself.Just like you are.

40700:27:33,694 --> 00:27:34,736And where did that get you,

40800:27:34,820 --> 00:27:37,948looking out for yourselfinstead of looking out for us?

40900:27:38,031 --> 00:27:40,492The 30th is dead now.You know that.

410

00:27:40,576 --> 00:27:41,743You think I'm giving up?


32/44

41100:27:41,827 --> 00:27:43,620What, you're gonna runagainst the Joneses?

41200:27:43,704 --> 00:27:45,372

You'll make a fool of yourself, Claire.

41300:27:45,456 --> 00:27:47,123The odds were against youeven with their blessing.

41400:27:47,208 --> 00:27:49,585Now, I hoped you'd reachthat conclusion on your own.

41500:27:49,668 --> 00:27:52,421But instead, you lied to me.

41600:27:54,715 --> 00:27:56,717Now, I can't force you to see reason.

41700:27:57,926 --> 00:28:00,637But I will not allow youto become dangerous.

41800:28:13,775 --> 00:28:14,943I'll take one.

41900:28:21,157 --> 00:28:22,243Take mine.

42000:28:27,498 --> 00:28:30,542Claire, look...

42100:28:30,626 --> 00:28:33,504When I win the general,then we can concentrate

42200:28:33,587 --> 00:28:36,340on a Senate seat for you in Texas.

42300:28:36,423 --> 00:28:38,759You don't want to be in the House, anyway.

42400:28:38,842 --> 00:28:41,845And neither of us could have predicted


33/44


34/44

- All right.

43900:29:27,516 --> 00:29:29,685I'll walk myself out.You enjoy your drink.

44000:29:55,126 --> 00:29:58,004You know, there was a boy that liveddown the street from me in Gaffney.

44100:29:58,088 --> 00:30:00,507About my age.His name was Walter Wryson.

44200:30:00,591 --> 00:30:03,635

He used to run away from home all the timeand come to our house.

44300:30:03,719 --> 00:30:05,178Not for any good reason.

44400:30:05,261 --> 00:30:08,139His daddy didn't beat him.He had clothes on his back.

445

00:30:08,223 --> 00:30:10,016The Wrysons hadway more money than we did,

44600:30:10,100 --> 00:30:13,562but run away he would, at least oncea month and come straight to our place.

44700:30:13,645 --> 00:30:18,484Now, usually, my mother would call hismother and she'd come and fetch him.

44800:30:18,567 --> 00:30:21,277But about the ninthor tenth time this happened,

44900:30:21,362 --> 00:30:25,156Walter ran outside,climbed up into a tree in our backyard,

450

00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:26,950and wouldn't come down for nothing.


35/44


36/44

And again, he just shook his head.

46500:31:08,742 --> 00:31:09,910And I got angry.

466

00:31:11,077 --> 00:31:15,081That boy had a good house, a good family,the sort I would've killed for,

46700:31:15,165 --> 00:31:16,792and he didn't even realize it.

46800:31:18,794 --> 00:31:21,672So I went into the tool shedand I took out an ax.

46900:31:21,755 --> 00:31:23,507And I said to Walter...

47000:31:23,590 --> 00:31:26,301"You want to know what it's really liketo live at my house?"

47100:31:26,385 --> 00:31:30,096And I gave that tree a good whack.

And Walter cried out, but I kept on.

47200:31:30,180 --> 00:31:33,183I mean, you've never heard screamslike the one coming from Walter

47300:31:33,266 --> 00:31:35,226as I chopped at that tree.

47400:31:35,310 --> 00:31:36,895He pissed his pants,

47500:31:36,978 --> 00:31:40,816and it came raining down on the ground,but I didn't pay it no mind.

47600:31:40,899 --> 00:31:42,859I just kept whacking away.

477

00:31:44,319 --> 00:31:45,404Well...


37/44

47800:31:45,487 --> 00:31:48,740it didn't take long before Walter was onthe ground and running back to his house.

47900:31:48,824 --> 00:31:51,034

You see, all he neededwas a little motivation.

48000:31:52,368 --> 00:31:54,621So I'll give Claire some time.

48100:31:54,705 --> 00:31:55,789But for her sake,

482

00:31:55,872 --> 00:31:59,501I hope she comes out of her treebefore I have to bring out my ax.

48300:32:04,631 --> 00:32:05,799Hey.

48400:32:11,054 --> 00:32:14,766He wants me to hold off for Senate.

485

00:32:14,850 --> 00:32:16,267I told him I would think about it.

48600:32:16,351 --> 00:32:19,855- So it's over?- Oh, no, it's not over.

48700:32:19,938 --> 00:32:22,107He endorsed Celia on national television.

48800:32:22,190 --> 00:32:24,192Forget the 30th.

48900:32:24,275 --> 00:32:26,987We need to think bigger.This cycle.

49000:32:30,323 --> 00:32:33,284Then we need to talk seriouslyabout my compensation.

49100:32:39,165 --> 00:32:41,292


38/44

- He on?- Yes, sir.

49200:32:49,593 --> 00:32:50,761I'm ready.

49300:32:50,844 --> 00:32:52,345I'll connect you now, sir.

49400:32:52,428 --> 00:32:54,556President Petrov,you are now on with the president.

49500:32:54,640 --> 00:32:56,808Good evening, Mr. President.

49600:32:56,892 --> 00:32:58,226Good morning, Mr. President.

49700:32:58,309 --> 00:33:00,186Your speech was good.

49800:33:00,270 --> 00:33:02,188Perhaps, a bit too...

49900:33:02,272 --> 00:33:03,482optimistic, hmm?

50000:33:03,565 --> 00:33:05,484I meant what I saidabout Russia.

50100:33:05,567 --> 00:33:07,944It's just words.They mean very little.

50200:33:08,028 --> 00:33:11,740I'm willing to back them up with action.First, we should talk about a bailout.

50300:33:11,823 --> 00:33:14,535I'm willing to work with the IMFto get you what you need.

504

00:33:14,618 --> 00:33:19,665And second, as a gesture of good faith,we'd like to return Igor Milkin to Russia.


39/44

50500:33:19,748 --> 00:33:21,166You should've done so already.

50600:33:21,249 --> 00:33:23,585

I need your assurances he'll get a trial.

50700:33:23,669 --> 00:33:26,087- What do you care about Igor Milkin?- I don't.

50800:33:26,171 --> 00:33:27,422You can send him to Siberia

509

00:33:27,506 --> 00:33:30,634and let him die of black lungin a coal mine, for all I care.

51000:33:30,717 --> 00:33:32,468But I do care about your economy.

51100:33:32,553 --> 00:33:35,639You keep killing high-profile businessmenand seizing their assets.

51200:33:35,722 --> 00:33:37,641- That's no--- You mean, traitors?

51300:33:37,724 --> 00:33:41,144Look, I am aware that they wereplotting a coup, but that still doesn't--

51400:33:41,227 --> 00:33:44,731Yes, because you orchestrated it.

51500:33:44,815 --> 00:33:47,609- Excuse me?- Why else would Milkin fly to America?

51600:33:47,693 --> 00:33:49,235We had nothing to do with this.

51700:33:49,319 --> 00:33:53,448

You... you lied to meabout the Jordan Valley,


40/44

51800:33:53,532 --> 00:33:55,116you lied to me about Corrigan.

51900:33:56,618 --> 00:33:58,829I am not trying to replace you, Viktor.

52000:33:58,912 --> 00:34:01,372I'm trying to help you.But you have to help me.

52100:34:01,456 --> 00:34:04,500These threats of reducingyour oil production, it won't work.

522

00:34:04,585 --> 00:34:08,839You think jacking up energy pricesis gonna hurt us, but it's just extortion.

52300:34:08,922 --> 00:34:12,718And I will not respond to extortion.Now, I'll send your traitor back,

52400:34:12,801 --> 00:34:16,137but you've got to stop seizing companiesand making people disappear.

52500:34:16,221 --> 00:34:20,225Igor Milkin is worse than a traitor.He's an American puppet.

52600:34:20,308 --> 00:34:22,393Regime change, that's extortion.

52700:34:22,477 --> 00:34:25,313Yes, but they acted on their own.You're being paranoid.

52800:34:25,396 --> 00:34:27,357Send him back. No terms.

52900:34:27,440 --> 00:34:30,318We're not going to get anywhereif you're not willing to negotiate.

530

00:34:30,401 --> 00:34:33,529Well... then I believe we're finished.


41/44

53100:34:33,614 --> 00:34:37,325And I believe you're right.Thank you, Mr. President.

53200:34:39,703 --> 00:34:43,206

Put Milkin in a secure location.He's not going anywhere.

53300:34:49,170 --> 00:34:51,047Mr. Milkin.

53400:34:51,131 --> 00:34:52,257I need you to come with me.

535

00:34:52,340 --> 00:34:54,217Where are we going?

53600:34:54,300 --> 00:34:55,969A detainment facility.

53700:34:56,052 --> 00:34:57,428I'm not being deported, am I?

53800:34:57,512 --> 00:34:59,848

No, we're going to processyour asylum request.

53900:36:13,588 --> 00:36:14,798Claire?

54000:36:20,095 --> 00:36:23,264If you wanna smoke,you should smoke.

54100:36:23,348 --> 00:36:25,516I only wanted one drag.

54200:36:27,227 --> 00:36:32,065He hated how you used to go downto the stables with your cigarettes.

54300:36:33,692 --> 00:36:34,985I didn't realize he knew.

54400:36:35,068 --> 00:36:38,780He adored you.


42/44

You got away with murder.

54500:36:41,324 --> 00:36:42,868Did you wait up for me?

546

00:36:42,951 --> 00:36:45,495No, it's the medication.

54700:36:45,578 --> 00:36:49,415Keeps me tired all day,and then I'm up all night.

54800:36:51,209 --> 00:36:54,129I... I watched the speech.

54900:36:55,213 --> 00:36:57,257What are you gonna do?

55000:36:57,340 --> 00:37:00,301It's late, Mother.Let's talk in the morning.

55100:37:00,385 --> 00:37:05,098By the way, those earrings are beautiful.I noticed 'em on TV.

55200:37:06,892 --> 00:37:08,559They're Francis' mother's earrings.

55300:37:08,643 --> 00:37:11,938- They look like they're over a carat.- Two carats.

55400:37:12,022 --> 00:37:14,482No doubt she stole them from someone.

55500:37:17,027 --> 00:37:20,530The Underwoods never cease to amaze.

55600:37:20,613 --> 00:37:22,407Mother...

55700:37:22,490 --> 00:37:24,409I'm going to need some money.

55800:37:26,036 --> 00:37:27,370


43/44

For the clinic? Isn't--

55900:37:27,453 --> 00:37:30,665A million five for LeAnnand some on top of that.

56000:37:30,749 --> 00:37:34,002Well, I thought your campaign was dead.

56100:37:34,085 --> 00:37:36,712It is,but I still need her to work for me.

56200:37:36,797 --> 00:37:40,050But, what for? I mean,

I can't ask my friends for money and--

56300:37:40,133 --> 00:37:41,301Our money.

56400:37:45,764 --> 00:37:47,849You mean my money.

56500:37:47,933 --> 00:37:50,435Don't fight me on this.

56600:37:50,518 --> 00:37:51,812Daddy would've done it,no questions asked.

56700:37:51,895 --> 00:37:55,398Yes, well... I'm not as foolish as he was.

56800:37:55,481 --> 00:37:57,108Well, I'll just have to sell the estate.

56900:37:57,192 --> 00:37:58,609You what?

57000:37:58,693 --> 00:38:01,446The money is in the trust,but the land is in my name.

57100:38:01,529 --> 00:38:04,574

- You wouldn't dare.- Well, I'm asking for your help.


44/44

57200:38:04,657 --> 00:38:06,742- If you refuse to give it--- Help?

57300:38:06,827 --> 00:38:10,205

You didn't lift a fingerto help me when I got sick.

57400:38:10,288 --> 00:38:11,790You didn't tell me you were sick!

57500:38:11,873 --> 00:38:14,375Because you had turned your back on me!

576

00:38:14,459 --> 00:38:17,295Oh, you are such a disappointment.

57700:38:19,464 --> 00:38:23,093You don't want me to sell this houseout from under you, but I will.

57800:38:26,471 --> 00:38:28,431I am the mother.

579

00:38:28,514 --> 00:38:30,683I am the mother!
