1
00:00:14,500 --> 00:00:16,489
This is what the freedom
to assemble looks like!
2
00:00:16,578 --> 00:00:18,330
Stop silencing the press!
3
00:00:18,414 --> 00:00:20,832
Stop persecuting the opposition!
4
00:00:20,916 --> 00:00:24,295
Stop imprisoning people
simply because they're gay!
5
00:00:24,378 --> 00:00:26,213
You're destroying Russia's future!
6
00:00:26,297 --> 00:00:28,132
When Petrov's motorcade arrives,
7
00:00:28,215 --> 00:00:30,342
have the band already playing
as loud as they can.
8
00:00:30,426 --> 00:00:31,510
I'll speak to the colonel.
9
00:00:31,593 --> 00:00:33,678
- What about the Pussy Riot girls?
- I briefed them myself.
10
00:00:33,762 --> 00:00:36,056
Here's a list of the issues
they want you to discuss with Petrov.
11
00:00:36,140 --> 00:00:37,391
- We're good to go.
- Tell them I did.
12
00:00:37,475 --> 00:00:39,310
Sure it's a good idea
to have them at the dinner?
13
00:00:39,393 --> 00:00:40,873
It's a smart idea.
They're dissidents.
14
00:00:40,936 --> 00:00:42,687
They've been nothing but a pain
in Petrov's ass.
15
00:00:42,771 --> 00:00:44,564
He wants to co-opt them
with a photo? Fine.
16
00:00:44,648 --> 00:00:46,488
If it's important to him,
it's important to me.
17
00:00:46,566 --> 00:00:48,235
- Bob.
- Mr. President.
18
00:00:48,319 --> 00:00:50,404
We have to get these amendments
out of committee.
19
00:00:50,488 --> 00:00:52,072
Get AmWorks on the floor.
20
00:00:52,156 --> 00:00:54,533
We might be able to squeeze
a couple through, but not all seven.
21
00:00:54,616 --> 00:00:55,909
Then restructure the funding.
22
00:00:55,993 --> 00:00:57,744
Shoot for one amendment
in one committee.
23
00:00:57,828 --> 00:00:58,996
Try Ways and Means.
24
00:00:59,079 --> 00:01:00,998
The Republicans
will never go for a lump sum.
25
00:01:01,081 --> 00:01:03,208
We have to split it up
into jurisdictional parts.
26
00:01:03,292 --> 00:01:06,504
When I announced America Works,
I promised ten million jobs.
27
00:01:06,586 --> 00:01:08,839
- Maybe it's time to lower expectations.
- No, look...
28
00:01:08,922 --> 00:01:11,967
Pardon me, sir.
President Petrov's motorcade is 15 out.
29
00:01:12,050 --> 00:01:13,511
- Thank you.
- I'll let you go.
30
00:01:13,593 --> 00:01:15,595
Bob, we have a few more minutes.
Please sit down.
31
00:01:15,679 --> 00:01:17,079
You have a lot on your plate today.
32
00:01:17,139 --> 00:01:19,224
Why don't we pick it up tonight
at the state dinner?
33
00:01:19,308 --> 00:01:21,268
Looking forward to it, Mr. President.
34
00:01:25,356 --> 00:01:26,940
What is the face of a coward?
35
00:01:27,024 --> 00:01:29,193
The back of his head
as he runs from the battle.
36
00:01:51,923 --> 00:01:55,219
- Welcome, Mr. President.
- Thank you, Mr. President.
37
00:01:55,302 --> 00:01:57,304
This is your first visit
to the White House?
38
00:01:57,388 --> 00:02:00,765
Yes, yes.
But my third president.
39
00:02:08,607 --> 00:02:11,651
I have reviewed your proposal
for the Jordan Valley.
40
00:02:13,362 --> 00:02:14,946
Impressive.
41
00:02:16,615 --> 00:02:19,577
So you liked the proposal?
42
00:02:19,659 --> 00:02:22,413
The answer is no.
43
00:02:22,496 --> 00:02:24,373
It's not a joke, Mr. President.
44
00:02:25,374 --> 00:02:29,044
I have no interest whatsoever
in pursuing your plan.
45
00:02:32,788 --> 00:04:07,563

46
00:04:12,606 --> 00:04:16,067
The Jordan Valley
is the trees instead of the forest.
47
00:04:16,151 --> 00:04:19,655
And this bilateral approach,
it's... alienating.
48
00:04:19,738 --> 00:04:22,700
I don't often see eye to eye
with Ms. Caspi,
49
00:04:22,782 --> 00:04:26,495
but it does feel like
you're asking the state of Palestine
50
00:04:26,578 --> 00:04:29,956
to support a plan without
having a seat at the table.
51
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:32,834
Well, our goal is to soften Russia,
52
00:04:32,917 --> 00:04:35,045
to bring them in as a partner first...
53
00:04:35,128 --> 00:04:38,549
If we can get the Russians
to agree to a joint force,
54
00:04:38,632 --> 00:04:41,843
monitor the valley together,
then they're invested.
55
00:04:41,926 --> 00:04:44,127
They won't be a thorn in our side
when we move forward...
56
00:04:44,137 --> 00:04:46,390
How can we count on the Russians?
57
00:04:46,473 --> 00:04:49,643
Does your husband truly
believe he can trust Petrov?
58
00:04:51,228 --> 00:04:52,688
The president is optimistic.
59
00:04:52,771 --> 00:04:55,065
All we ask is that you
remain open-minded.
60
00:04:55,148 --> 00:04:59,611
I hope you'll convey our dissatisfaction
directly to your husband.
61
00:04:59,695 --> 00:05:01,613
I'll be sure to share your concerns.
62
00:05:01,697 --> 00:05:05,367
Ambassador Underwood
will remain in contact with both of you.
63
00:05:15,586 --> 00:05:18,505
I shouldn't have
interrupted you earlier.
64
00:05:18,589 --> 00:05:20,632
In the meeting.
It was out of place,
65
00:05:20,716 --> 00:05:22,926
and I should have let you
do all the talking.
66
00:05:23,009 --> 00:05:24,511
It's fine.
67
00:05:26,263 --> 00:05:28,807
I know you have doubts about me.
68
00:05:28,890 --> 00:05:31,351
The recess appointment.
We haven't discussed it.
69
00:05:31,435 --> 00:05:34,438
- And we should.
- It really isn't necessary.
70
00:05:34,521 --> 00:05:38,400
It is an unorthodox dynamic, yes.
You will always be the First Lady.
71
00:05:38,483 --> 00:05:41,403
This is your plane, after all.
But we can work around that.
72
00:05:41,486 --> 00:05:42,487
Yes, I know,
73
00:05:42,571 --> 00:05:44,281
but I want you to know that...
74
00:05:44,364 --> 00:05:46,283
Mrs. Underwood,
the president is on the line.
75
00:05:56,794 --> 00:05:58,336
- Hi.
- Hey. How'd it go?
76
00:05:58,420 --> 00:06:00,589
- Should we conference Cathy in?
- No, just tell me.
77
00:06:00,672 --> 00:06:02,340
A lot of pushback. They aren't happy.
78
00:06:02,424 --> 00:06:04,551
Well, they'll get on board
when the time comes.
79
00:06:04,635 --> 00:06:06,845
- What about you?
- He said no.
80
00:06:06,928 --> 00:06:09,556
- First word out of his mouth.
- No to everything?
81
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:12,481
Oh, he might just be playing mind
games, trying to throw me off balance,
82
00:06:12,559 --> 00:06:15,079
but this is a guy who was brought up
through the KGB, after all.
83
00:06:15,103 --> 00:06:17,481
We're gonna have to have you
and Cathy use the light touch.
84
00:06:17,564 --> 00:06:20,066
- We need to massage this.
- Let's include her in this phone call.
85
00:06:20,150 --> 00:06:21,710
No, just tell her.
I have to go in soon.
86
00:06:21,777 --> 00:06:24,237
It's important we don't bypass her.
87
00:06:24,321 --> 00:06:26,761
If it looks like we're
leaving her out of the loop, Francis...
88
00:06:26,824 --> 00:06:28,074
All right, put her on.
89
00:06:28,158 --> 00:06:30,285
I can't tell you how much
it would mean to the team.
90
00:06:30,368 --> 00:06:33,037
To have your qualifications,
your expertise on board.
91
00:06:33,121 --> 00:06:35,081
Even just having your name
on the website.
92
00:06:35,165 --> 00:06:37,208
I appreciate your saying that,
Congressman.
93
00:06:37,292 --> 00:06:39,961
Brad. Please.
Congressman's what the interns call me.
94
00:06:40,044 --> 00:06:41,713
All right. Brad it is.
95
00:06:41,797 --> 00:06:44,842
Now as for your title,
I was thinking Special Advisor?
96
00:06:44,924 --> 00:06:47,469
- Title doesn't matter to me.
- You pick what you want.
97
00:06:47,552 --> 00:06:49,929
And you make your own hours.
Come and go as you like.
98
00:06:50,013 --> 00:06:53,308
Uh, compensation,
would 220 a year work for you?
99
00:06:54,225 --> 00:06:56,353
The cap is 173.
100
00:06:56,436 --> 00:06:59,063
Well, the extra 50K
would come out of my re-election fund.
101
00:06:59,147 --> 00:07:01,191
I mean, you deserve more than the cap.
102
00:07:02,192 --> 00:07:04,444
- That's a very generous offer.
- Well, I expect you to earn it.
103
00:07:04,528 --> 00:07:07,447
I really want
to make my mark this session.
104
00:07:07,531 --> 00:07:10,492
- That's more than Underwood paid me.
- I'm sorry?
105
00:07:10,575 --> 00:07:13,286
When I was his chief of staff,
I made the cap.
106
00:07:13,370 --> 00:07:14,830
He never came anywhere near 220.
107
00:07:14,913 --> 00:07:16,554
Well, like I said, I think you deserve...
108
00:07:16,581 --> 00:07:18,709
It's too much money, Congressman.
109
00:07:18,792 --> 00:07:20,168
Well, I disagree, but,
110
00:07:20,251 --> 00:07:22,371
hey, I'm not gonna argue
if you want to get paid less.
111
00:07:23,588 --> 00:07:25,131
As I was saying, this transpo bill,
112
00:07:25,215 --> 00:07:27,425
we really have an opportunity
to make a difference.
113
00:07:35,934 --> 00:07:38,186
Ladies and gentlemen,
the session is over.
114
00:07:38,269 --> 00:07:41,022
Please, right this way.
Thank you for coming.
115
00:07:47,738 --> 00:07:49,907
I hear you've recently taken up surfing.
116
00:07:51,324 --> 00:07:53,618
We have a few spots on the Black Sea.
117
00:07:53,702 --> 00:07:55,787
It's mostly so I can pose
for the photos.
118
00:07:55,871 --> 00:07:57,539
Yes, I've seen them.
119
00:07:59,290 --> 00:08:02,168
It plays well with the young people.
120
00:08:02,252 --> 00:08:04,379
It's important they see
their president has some fun,
121
00:08:04,462 --> 00:08:06,089
doesn't take himself too seriously.
122
00:08:09,092 --> 00:08:10,260
I have a gift for you.
123
00:08:14,765 --> 00:08:17,183
I'm sorry for the delay.
124
00:08:17,267 --> 00:08:19,436
I hope we didn't keep you
waiting too long.
125
00:08:22,439 --> 00:08:23,815
Shall we?
126
00:08:23,899 --> 00:08:28,528
This was handmade by Tomas Vu,
a very talented American artist.
127
00:08:28,612 --> 00:08:33,157
He laser-etches images on one side,
and on the other side...
128
00:08:33,241 --> 00:08:36,787
- he puts Beatles lyrics.
- Uh-huh.
129
00:08:36,870 --> 00:08:38,622
Hm. Back in the USSR.
130
00:08:38,705 --> 00:08:41,082
It's a museum piece,
but you can still ride it.
131
00:08:41,165 --> 00:08:43,961
You should come out
to my dacha in Sochi sometime.
132
00:08:44,043 --> 00:08:45,503
We'll surf together.
133
00:08:45,587 --> 00:08:49,633
The water is cold as hell, but...
the women are very warm.
134
00:08:49,716 --> 00:08:52,051
Oh, I'm not sure what Claire
would think about that.
135
00:08:52,135 --> 00:08:55,013
Well, bring her along.
136
00:08:55,096 --> 00:08:56,890
It's crawling with artists out there.
137
00:08:56,974 --> 00:08:58,516
She might find something she likes.
138
00:09:01,895 --> 00:09:03,563
Mr. President, I'm intrigued.
139
00:09:03,647 --> 00:09:06,566
The first thing you say to me
is "no" the second you arrive,
140
00:09:06,650 --> 00:09:09,319
and the next moment
you're inviting me to your dacha.
141
00:09:09,402 --> 00:09:10,946
Who am I dealing with?
142
00:09:11,029 --> 00:09:14,157
I believe I was clear when we first met.
What confuses you?
143
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:16,534
Our delegations have been discussing
these issues for months.
144
00:09:16,618 --> 00:09:19,871
Yes, but discussions
are not the same as commitment.
145
00:09:19,955 --> 00:09:22,499
And, uh, I'm telling you now.
146
00:09:22,582 --> 00:09:24,709
There will be no commitment.
147
00:09:24,793 --> 00:09:26,878
You could've told me that on the phone.
148
00:09:29,297 --> 00:09:32,676
I assumed you were undoing
an insult by having me here.
149
00:09:32,759 --> 00:09:34,177
What insult is that?
150
00:09:34,260 --> 00:09:37,305
Two of your predecessors
never invited me to Washington.
151
00:09:37,388 --> 00:09:39,516
This summit is not just for show.
152
00:09:39,599 --> 00:09:42,185
I want to make meaningful strides
toward peace.
153
00:09:42,268 --> 00:09:45,022
The Middle East is hopeless.
History tells us that.
154
00:09:45,104 --> 00:09:47,774
I'm offering you
the chance to make history.
155
00:09:47,858 --> 00:09:48,900
I'll be honest with you,
156
00:09:48,984 --> 00:09:51,611
because you've been kind enough
to invite me to your country.
157
00:09:52,988 --> 00:09:56,240
Russia has nothing to gain
from peace in the Middle East.
158
00:09:56,324 --> 00:10:00,745
And more importantly, nothing
to gain from working with America.
159
00:10:02,747 --> 00:10:04,708
Israel has always distrusted us.
160
00:10:04,791 --> 00:10:08,127
- You expect that to change?
- We expect to build trust over time.
161
00:10:10,588 --> 00:10:14,425
How was your meeting
with the ambassadors this morning?
162
00:10:14,509 --> 00:10:17,261
Ambassador Aruri called me.
163
00:10:17,345 --> 00:10:20,682
They have their doubts, but we
encouraged them to keep an open mind.
164
00:10:20,765 --> 00:10:22,350
He described it as grave concerns.
165
00:10:22,433 --> 00:10:24,234
They will acclimate
as soon as we establish...
166
00:10:24,268 --> 00:10:27,355
Has your husband made direct overtures
to Israel and Palestine?
167
00:10:27,438 --> 00:10:31,735
All formal communication has been
handled through the State Department.
168
00:10:31,818 --> 00:10:34,029
But your husband can't possibly
believe they'll comply.
169
00:10:34,112 --> 00:10:35,793
Gentlemen,
for the purposes of these talks,
170
00:10:35,822 --> 00:10:39,200
I'd appreciate it if you refer to him
as the president, not as my husband.
171
00:10:39,283 --> 00:10:40,952
Of course, Madam Ambassador.
172
00:10:41,036 --> 00:10:43,162
And you really should be addressing
Secretary Durant.
173
00:10:43,246 --> 00:10:45,832
She speaks on his behalf more than I do.
174
00:10:46,917 --> 00:10:50,503
Our apologies, Madam Secretary.
Please, continue.
175
00:10:50,587 --> 00:10:55,842
We'd like to finish reviewing
the specifics, so page 12, please.
176
00:10:55,926 --> 00:10:59,096
Mr. President, we're already
working together on several fronts:
177
00:10:59,178 --> 00:11:02,390
nonproliferation,
the War on Terror, North Korea.
178
00:11:02,473 --> 00:11:05,153
I don't see any reason that
the Middle East should be any different.
179
00:11:05,226 --> 00:11:07,478
- Because it's an American plan.
- It's not an American plan.
180
00:11:07,562 --> 00:11:09,731
- I'm promising equal terms.
- Oh, promises.
181
00:11:09,814 --> 00:11:12,567
Carter promised equal involvement,
then shut us out of Camp David.
182
00:11:12,650 --> 00:11:15,236
- Clinton did the same with Bosnia.
- I'm the president now.
183
00:11:15,319 --> 00:11:16,529
That won't happen this time.
184
00:11:16,613 --> 00:11:19,741
Until 18 months from now,
when you are replaced.
185
00:11:22,869 --> 00:11:24,662
I'm jealous, Viktor.
186
00:11:26,123 --> 00:11:29,333
You don't answer to anyone.
You have no real opposition.
187
00:11:29,417 --> 00:11:32,336
You know exactly how
every election is gonna turn out.
188
00:11:32,420 --> 00:11:35,673
Well, it's not like that
in the United States.
189
00:11:35,757 --> 00:11:41,638
I'm not running because I can do things
a candidate can't do, like this proposal.
190
00:11:41,721 --> 00:11:45,224
Please, Mr. President,
we both know you'll run.
191
00:11:45,308 --> 00:11:48,895
Now, whether you win...
Who knows?
192
00:11:48,979 --> 00:11:52,565
Brass tacks. If you could have anything,
what would it be?
193
00:11:54,818 --> 00:11:56,861
I came with nothing to ask.
194
00:11:57,988 --> 00:12:01,449
Men like you don't show up for dinner
without an appetite.
195
00:12:06,037 --> 00:12:08,873
It was a long flight, Mr. President.
196
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:11,751
How about we stop here for now.
197
00:12:11,835 --> 00:12:15,588
I rest my eyes a bit and put some
thought into this with a fresh mind.
198
00:12:15,672 --> 00:12:19,300
Maybe I'll...
think of something I want.
199
00:12:20,343 --> 00:12:24,597
- We'll talk more later, at dinner.
- Of course, if that's what you prefer.
200
00:12:26,975 --> 00:12:29,727
He knows exactly what he wants,
but he needs to be wooed.
201
00:12:29,811 --> 00:12:31,062
Progress, nonetheless.
202
00:12:31,146 --> 00:12:34,607
You can't turn a "no" to a "yes"
without a "maybe" in between.
203
00:12:44,201 --> 00:12:46,077
Gentlemen...
204
00:12:46,161 --> 00:12:48,454
Deputy Director coming through.
205
00:13:24,824 --> 00:13:27,535
Orsay? Come with me, please.
206
00:13:28,494 --> 00:13:30,205
We got Asher.
207
00:13:30,288 --> 00:13:32,957
Two-thirty this morning.
He was scared to death.
208
00:13:33,041 --> 00:13:35,919
By 2:45, he gave us six terabytes
of compressed files.
209
00:13:36,002 --> 00:13:38,213
All 25 million AT&T users.
210
00:13:38,296 --> 00:13:39,977
You hid your goodies
with the wrong person.
211
00:13:40,006 --> 00:13:43,134
- He wasn't the only one.
- I think he was.
212
00:13:43,218 --> 00:13:46,012
You can't arrest me for charges
that have already been dropped.
213
00:13:46,096 --> 00:13:47,847
Relax. No one's arresting you.
214
00:13:49,057 --> 00:13:53,144
From the reports I've been getting,
you've been doing an excellent job for us.
215
00:13:54,020 --> 00:13:56,355
If you stay straight, sky's the limit.
216
00:13:56,439 --> 00:13:58,066
Bigger assignments.
Manage your own team.
217
00:13:58,149 --> 00:13:59,776
You know I wouldn't be here
if I had a choice.
218
00:13:59,859 --> 00:14:02,028
But you do have a choice.
219
00:14:02,112 --> 00:14:05,156
You can make the most
of this second chance if you want to,
220
00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:09,160
but... you have to prove you want it.
221
00:14:10,661 --> 00:14:12,872
- Names.
- That's all I've ever wanted.
222
00:14:14,457 --> 00:14:15,875
No.
223
00:14:19,503 --> 00:14:21,214
Asher's going to give up names.
224
00:14:22,757 --> 00:14:25,302
- He wouldn't do that.
- He might.
225
00:14:25,384 --> 00:14:29,055
Let's hope none of them tell us about
anything we didn't charge you for.
226
00:14:30,932 --> 00:14:34,852
You have a future here, Gavin.
227
00:14:37,272 --> 00:14:39,607
All right. Back to it.
228
00:14:42,735 --> 00:14:44,570
Keep up the good work.
229
00:14:45,488 --> 00:14:47,657
We have to wine and dine.
230
00:14:47,740 --> 00:14:50,451
- Charm them senseless.
- Them? Who's the other?
231
00:14:50,534 --> 00:14:53,788
Birch. He's sitting on AmWorks
like his ass is afraid of the sun.
232
00:14:53,871 --> 00:14:55,957
Please don't make me talk to Bob.
233
00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:58,751
You just focus on Petrov.
I'll deal with Bob.
234
00:14:58,835 --> 00:15:00,920
Excuse me, sir. We're all set.
235
00:15:01,004 --> 00:15:02,839
President Petrov is in the Yellow Oval.
236
00:15:02,922 --> 00:15:04,465
Thank you, Calista.
237
00:15:07,844 --> 00:15:10,180
I think I may need to do
some damage control with Cathy.
238
00:15:10,263 --> 00:15:12,807
- Why?
- I've been trying to be deferential,
239
00:15:12,890 --> 00:15:15,393
but I think it's coming off
as patronizing.
240
00:15:15,476 --> 00:15:18,521
- Well, that was the risk.
- I know.
241
00:15:18,604 --> 00:15:20,564
Is she feeling threatened?
242
00:15:20,648 --> 00:15:23,693
Threatened, no.
Possibly overshadowed.
243
00:15:23,776 --> 00:15:27,197
I think I'm getting too much attention
and it's tough to be effective
244
00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:30,367
when I don't have Cathy on my team,
so I may need to win her over.
245
00:15:30,449 --> 00:15:33,203
Well, let's not forget
where the focus is tonight.
246
00:15:33,286 --> 00:15:36,331
Since when can't I do
two things at once?
247
00:15:36,414 --> 00:15:38,541
- You're crooked.
- What?
248
00:15:41,127 --> 00:15:44,339
- Ready for battle.
- Yes.
249
00:16:21,834 --> 00:16:24,087
The Vice President of the United States,
Donald Blythe.
250
00:16:24,170 --> 00:16:26,172
- Mr. President. Welcome.
- Mr. Vice President.
251
00:16:26,256 --> 00:16:28,716
Thank you.
252
00:16:28,799 --> 00:16:30,427
President Petrov, welcome.
253
00:16:30,509 --> 00:16:33,179
It's a pleasure.
254
00:16:33,263 --> 00:16:35,056
Hi. You look beautiful.
255
00:16:35,139 --> 00:16:36,891
Oh, it's serviceable.
256
00:16:36,974 --> 00:16:39,477
- You look fantastic, as always.
- Thank you.
257
00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:43,022
All eyes at the table
will be on you, not them.
258
00:16:44,815 --> 00:16:47,485
Senator Mendoza.
Soon to be candidate Mendoza.
259
00:16:47,568 --> 00:16:51,072
- The rumor mill begins.
- You started with Reagan, no?
260
00:16:51,155 --> 00:16:52,865
Staffed on his '84 campaign.
261
00:16:52,949 --> 00:16:55,952
He has a portrait of the Gipper
in his office wearing a cowboy hat.
262
00:16:56,035 --> 00:16:59,538
Hm. When men were men. Hm?
263
00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:06,796
Bob, I had a thought. Dave Blanchek
is on Armed Services and...
264
00:17:06,879 --> 00:17:09,590
I don't want to hold up the line.
265
00:17:09,673 --> 00:17:12,135
- Mr. President, a pleasure.
- I want to move Birch.
266
00:17:12,218 --> 00:17:13,928
Put Mendoza next to me instead.
267
00:17:14,011 --> 00:17:16,973
Alan. You clean up well.
268
00:17:17,056 --> 00:17:18,641
Class by association.
269
00:17:18,724 --> 00:17:20,477
- Where's your date?
- I don't have one.
270
00:17:20,559 --> 00:17:24,188
- I can walk you in too, if you'd like.
- No. Wouldn't want to ruin the picture.
271
00:17:26,816 --> 00:17:27,942
Ah, our special guests.
272
00:17:28,025 --> 00:17:29,735
I'm so delighted
you could be with us.
273
00:17:29,819 --> 00:17:31,946
Thank you so much for coming.
Mr. President.
274
00:17:32,029 --> 00:17:34,907
It's taken us too long
to sit at the same table.
275
00:17:34,991 --> 00:17:39,246
Did you discuss
our issues in the closed talks?
276
00:17:39,329 --> 00:17:40,663
We discussed many things.
277
00:17:40,746 --> 00:17:43,791
But specifically our concerns?
278
00:17:43,874 --> 00:17:46,210
Was anything on our list discussed?
279
00:17:46,294 --> 00:17:48,963
- Why don't we take a photo first?
- Good idea. Hm?
280
00:18:08,732 --> 00:18:11,444
Viktor, tell me. Are you in love?
281
00:18:11,528 --> 00:18:15,365
I don't know about...
love, but...
282
00:18:17,241 --> 00:18:19,952
I'm learning to enjoy being divorced.
283
00:18:26,959 --> 00:18:29,212
Which translates into:
284
00:18:29,295 --> 00:18:31,839
"Howdy, and please
don't steal the silverware."
285
00:18:34,551 --> 00:18:37,554
Now that I have exhausted
all of the Russian I know,
286
00:18:37,636 --> 00:18:41,224
Claire and I would like to welcome
all of you to the White House,
287
00:18:41,307 --> 00:18:46,479
as we host President Petrov
in this historic state visit.
288
00:18:46,563 --> 00:18:49,899
A century ago, a century and a half ago,
289
00:18:49,982 --> 00:18:54,987
de Tocqueville wrote, in regards
to America and Russia, the following:
290
00:18:55,071 --> 00:18:58,866
"Their point of departure
and their paths diverse,
291
00:18:58,949 --> 00:19:01,952
nevertheless, each seems called
292
00:19:02,036 --> 00:19:05,873
by some secret desire of Providence,
293
00:19:05,956 --> 00:19:11,295
to one day hold in their hands
the destinies of half the world."
294
00:19:11,379 --> 00:19:15,049
Well, I'd like to amend that tonight
and say, not just half the world,
295
00:19:15,132 --> 00:19:19,554
the entire world looks to us
for leadership.
296
00:19:19,637 --> 00:19:24,225
So, to President Petrov,
and all of the great things
297
00:19:24,308 --> 00:19:26,685
that our great nations
will do together.
298
00:19:26,769 --> 00:19:29,439
- Mr. President.
- Hear, hear!
299
00:19:36,362 --> 00:19:39,365
Which is Russian for,
"Never trust the French."
300
00:19:41,784 --> 00:19:45,829
And thank you to the president and First
Lady for your grace and hospitality.
301
00:19:45,913 --> 00:19:48,625
Now, a little more recently
than de Tocqueville,
302
00:19:48,707 --> 00:19:51,419
about, uh, 30 years ago,
303
00:19:51,502 --> 00:19:54,046
Mikhail Gorbachev came
to this very house
304
00:19:54,130 --> 00:19:57,716
and talked of an end
to our "winter of discontent."
305
00:19:59,093 --> 00:20:04,098
I think it's safe to say that
that winter seems far gone now.
306
00:20:04,181 --> 00:20:09,353
And here, on this beautiful May evening,
I welcome a "spring of enchantment."
307
00:20:09,437 --> 00:20:14,024
Now we all know which of you
brings the enchantment to the table.
308
00:20:14,609 --> 00:20:16,402
To you, Mrs. Underwood.
309
00:20:19,947 --> 00:20:23,451
- And, of course, your lesser half.
- Ah, thank you.
310
00:20:26,912 --> 00:20:31,709
Now I'd like to toast three others
in this room tonight.
311
00:20:31,792 --> 00:20:35,672
Nadya Tolokonnikova,
Masha Alyokhina,
312
00:20:35,754 --> 00:20:37,632
and Pyotr Verzilov.
313
00:20:37,715 --> 00:20:40,342
Now, I know we had our differences.
314
00:20:40,426 --> 00:20:44,263
But I also know they come
from something we all share:
315
00:20:45,682 --> 00:20:48,434
a deep love of our country.
316
00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:53,189
To you. And to Russia.
317
00:20:54,398 --> 00:20:58,027
Mr. President, Nadya and Masha
would like to make a toast.
318
00:21:04,367 --> 00:21:07,495
To Viktor Petrov,
whose loyalty runs so deep
319
00:21:07,578 --> 00:21:09,372
he's given his friends
half of the country.
320
00:21:11,207 --> 00:21:14,502
Who's so open to criticism,
that most of his critics are in prison.
321
00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:24,762
You made your point.
322
00:21:25,722 --> 00:21:30,601
Now, please, sit and let us all
323
00:21:30,685 --> 00:21:34,313
drink and laugh,
like true Russians do. Hm?
324
00:21:46,992 --> 00:21:48,869
Well, Mr. President,
325
00:21:48,952 --> 00:21:53,082
this is proof why you made the
right decision never to have children.
326
00:22:01,090 --> 00:22:03,008
My staff prepped them.
327
00:22:03,092 --> 00:22:05,511
- They assured us.
- It's nothing.
328
00:22:05,595 --> 00:22:09,098
- I admire your grace.
- Please. Not another word.
329
00:22:10,767 --> 00:22:13,310
I knew Pussy Riot was a bad idea.
330
00:22:13,394 --> 00:22:16,313
- You should go.
- No. Best thing is not to comment.
331
00:22:16,397 --> 00:22:18,441
It lowers us to their level.
332
00:22:19,650 --> 00:22:21,193
Juice or soda?
333
00:22:21,277 --> 00:22:22,945
Diet something, if you got it.
334
00:22:24,321 --> 00:22:26,031
Who are they?
335
00:22:29,285 --> 00:22:30,953
My brother's kids.
336
00:22:32,246 --> 00:22:33,581
Adorable.
337
00:22:40,963 --> 00:22:44,091
- I got a job offer.
- Yeah? Where?
338
00:22:44,174 --> 00:22:47,094
Brad Petite. Special Advisor.
339
00:22:47,886 --> 00:22:49,806
From Hawaii.
340
00:22:49,888 --> 00:22:51,641
- Junior congressman?
- That's right.
341
00:22:51,724 --> 00:22:54,769
I like him. He's a good guy.
He's ambitious.
342
00:22:54,852 --> 00:22:56,979
He offered me a lot of money.
343
00:22:57,062 --> 00:22:59,565
- Yeah?
- Two-twenty.
344
00:22:59,649 --> 00:23:01,484
Jesus.
345
00:23:02,568 --> 00:23:05,237
That's more than I would ever make
at the White House.
346
00:23:08,198 --> 00:23:11,786
- You arrange the job?
- No.
347
00:23:11,869 --> 00:23:13,579
Did the president?
348
00:23:13,663 --> 00:23:16,165
- What are you talking about?
- Don't bullshit me, Seth.
349
00:23:16,248 --> 00:23:17,916
This is the first I'm hearing about it.
350
00:23:20,002 --> 00:23:22,129
Who's the senior congressman
from Hawaii?
351
00:23:23,422 --> 00:23:26,091
Chair of Appropriations.
352
00:23:26,175 --> 00:23:28,302
I know him,
I'm just drawing a blank right now.
353
00:23:28,969 --> 00:23:31,764
It's not him, it's a her.
354
00:23:31,848 --> 00:23:34,851
Francine Tenaka.
And if you don't know who Tenaka is,
355
00:23:34,933 --> 00:23:37,186
there's no reason you should know
who Brad Petite is,
356
00:23:37,269 --> 00:23:39,897
or that he's ambitious or a good guy.
357
00:23:39,980 --> 00:23:43,400
This job offer came from you
or the president.
358
00:23:43,484 --> 00:23:45,695
And I'm telling you that it didn't.
359
00:23:48,030 --> 00:23:49,740
Well, I'm turning it down.
360
00:23:50,658 --> 00:23:54,161
You tell the president that I'm ready
to come back whenever he needs me.
361
00:23:54,244 --> 00:23:56,330
I don't need training wheels.
362
00:24:10,594 --> 00:24:12,763
I need you to work on Birch
while you're here.
363
00:24:12,847 --> 00:24:15,558
See if you can get that list
of possible candidates.
364
00:24:15,641 --> 00:24:17,882
I don't think putting him down
the far end of the table's
365
00:24:17,935 --> 00:24:19,136
put him in a very chatty mood.
366
00:24:22,523 --> 00:24:25,735
Refrigeration.
Are you talking about refrigeration?
367
00:24:25,818 --> 00:24:28,153
- No.
- Re-bridge nations.
368
00:24:28,237 --> 00:24:31,365
We need to re-bridgenate ourselves
so we'll more trust each other.
369
00:24:31,448 --> 00:24:33,075
Da? Yes.
370
00:24:33,158 --> 00:24:35,452
Let's get these amendments
out of committee.
371
00:24:35,536 --> 00:24:36,937
Not all of them, just some of them.
372
00:24:36,995 --> 00:24:39,415
The Speaker would go ballistic
if I started meddling in the House.
373
00:24:39,498 --> 00:24:41,959
Not if it means he's going to battle
with the presumptive nominee.
374
00:24:42,084 --> 00:24:43,627
He knows where his bread is buttered.
375
00:24:43,711 --> 00:24:46,792
You shove your wife's recess appointment
down my throat, now you want my help?
376
00:24:46,839 --> 00:24:48,131
I had to fill the post.
377
00:24:48,215 --> 00:24:50,760
And you have a city
full of career diplomats.
378
00:24:50,843 --> 00:24:52,724
Her appointment was
a slap in the Senate's face.
379
00:24:52,803 --> 00:24:54,972
Let's not get hung up
on appointments, all right?
380
00:24:55,055 --> 00:24:57,224
Hector, whatever
you want me to sign, I'll sign.
381
00:24:57,307 --> 00:24:59,351
I will not hold a veto over your head.
382
00:24:59,435 --> 00:25:03,439
You can veto whatever you want.
Just helps our case in 2016.
383
00:25:03,522 --> 00:25:05,315
Excuse me.
384
00:25:10,988 --> 00:25:14,324
Which is more intoxicating,
this wine or Claire Underwood?
385
00:25:16,619 --> 00:25:17,995
How often do you use that line?
386
00:25:18,078 --> 00:25:21,206
- Not as often as you use yours.
- Which line is that?
387
00:25:22,207 --> 00:25:24,334
"Viktor, are you in love?"
388
00:25:27,129 --> 00:25:30,758
President Descoteaux told me you asked
him the same thing when he was here.
389
00:25:33,010 --> 00:25:36,388
I believe my husband quoted a Russian
author the night he gave that toast.
390
00:25:36,472 --> 00:25:39,391
- Don't say, uh... Tolstoy?
- Pushkin.
391
00:25:39,475 --> 00:25:44,271
"A deception that elevates us
is dearer than a host of low truths."
392
00:25:44,354 --> 00:25:47,650
Ah... He didn't make that toast.
393
00:25:48,692 --> 00:25:52,029
- No, he didn't.
- No, no.
394
00:25:52,112 --> 00:25:54,197
Tell me, do you
actually know your Pushkin,
395
00:25:54,281 --> 00:25:56,951
or did you just study up
before I arrived?
396
00:25:57,034 --> 00:25:59,161
Does it really matter?
397
00:26:01,956 --> 00:26:05,001
So, this is what he does?
398
00:26:05,083 --> 00:26:07,085
He leaves the seduction to you.
399
00:26:07,169 --> 00:26:10,756
Isn't there a...
a word for that in English? Um...
400
00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:14,217
- For what?
- "Pimping," yes?
401
00:26:14,301 --> 00:26:16,178
He's pimping you out.
402
00:26:18,221 --> 00:26:19,807
How charming you are.
403
00:26:19,890 --> 00:26:21,642
Thank you.
404
00:26:21,725 --> 00:26:24,770
And you make a much better First Lady
than ambassador,
405
00:26:24,854 --> 00:26:26,897
from what my people tell me.
406
00:26:29,692 --> 00:26:31,027
Only teasing.
407
00:26:31,944 --> 00:26:35,698
More wine... for the ambassador.
408
00:26:35,781 --> 00:26:37,240
Please.
409
00:26:49,003 --> 00:26:51,588
I'm gonna have to go
in a couple minutes.
410
00:26:51,672 --> 00:26:53,841
Ah!
411
00:26:53,924 --> 00:26:57,302
Mr. President, my gift for you.
412
00:26:58,178 --> 00:27:00,305
Best vodka in the world.
413
00:27:00,389 --> 00:27:02,808
Osobaya Sayanskaya.
414
00:27:04,309 --> 00:27:05,769
Solid gold.
415
00:27:05,853 --> 00:27:08,731
Each one of these bottles is 750,000.
416
00:27:10,399 --> 00:27:12,609
Now, a toast.
417
00:27:16,446 --> 00:27:19,616
To friendship, to good food,
418
00:27:19,700 --> 00:27:24,621
and to Leo Tolstoy, who said,
419
00:27:24,705 --> 00:27:27,833
"If you want to be happy, be."
420
00:27:27,917 --> 00:27:30,377
Drink!
421
00:27:35,507 --> 00:27:36,508
Ah!
422
00:27:36,592 --> 00:27:39,636
Now... you sniff your bread.
423
00:27:43,223 --> 00:27:45,434
Say "Nu."
424
00:27:45,517 --> 00:27:46,936
Nu!
425
00:27:47,019 --> 00:27:48,979
Then whistle.
426
00:27:49,063 --> 00:27:50,564
Sniff your sleeve.
427
00:27:52,357 --> 00:27:54,944
And... eat your pickle.
428
00:27:55,611 --> 00:27:58,280
Now, why we do all this?
429
00:27:59,448 --> 00:28:02,701
No one knows.
430
00:28:02,785 --> 00:28:04,036
Again!
431
00:28:04,120 --> 00:28:06,455
- Oh, no. Now, Mr. President.
- Mm, mm!
432
00:28:07,330 --> 00:28:10,167
Now, you, Mr. Vice President.
433
00:28:10,250 --> 00:28:13,378
- A toast!
- Oh! Uh... Um...
434
00:28:13,462 --> 00:28:16,132
Uh, to, uh... further cooperation
435
00:28:16,214 --> 00:28:20,343
between our two countries
and, uh... continued... uh...
436
00:28:20,427 --> 00:28:24,056
Oh, hell. Here's how!
437
00:28:27,184 --> 00:28:30,104
Again!
438
00:28:32,314 --> 00:28:35,818
Now, you... Mrs. Underwood.
439
00:28:38,361 --> 00:28:41,740
To President Petrov and his...
440
00:28:41,824 --> 00:28:44,910
little pickle.
441
00:28:44,994 --> 00:28:45,994
Drink!
442
00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:52,292

Beautiful.
Beautiful, Mr. President.
469
00:30:58,335 --> 00:31:00,420
Now... now, Mr. Cincotti,
470
00:31:00,503 --> 00:31:02,881
uh, you might not know this one.
471
00:31:02,965 --> 00:31:05,926
But, um... it's easy to follow. Hm?
472
00:31:06,009 --> 00:31:09,305
Um... You have a C for me?
473
00:31:33,370 --> 00:31:35,413
You offered vetoes for sale to Mendoza?
474
00:31:35,497 --> 00:31:37,374
Bob, shh... the president's singing.
475
00:31:37,457 --> 00:31:39,209
Is that why you sat him next to you?
476
00:31:39,293 --> 00:31:42,254
Bob, as you said,
the Republicans control Congress.
477
00:31:49,386 --> 00:31:50,846
Any luck with Birch?
478
00:31:51,888 --> 00:31:54,557
No list yet.
I'll keep working him.
479
00:31:54,641 --> 00:31:56,810
Where's Dr. Cooke?
480
00:31:56,893 --> 00:31:58,854
He got called away to surgery.
481
00:32:01,773 --> 00:32:04,484
Save it for Svetla.
482
00:32:04,567 --> 00:32:05,986
That's not her name.
483
00:32:06,069 --> 00:32:08,322
She looks like a Svetla.
484
00:32:42,064 --> 00:32:44,900
Hey!
485
00:32:44,983 --> 00:32:48,945
Well, I don't think we can end
the evening on a higher note,
486
00:32:49,029 --> 00:32:50,989
so I want to thank you all for coming,
487
00:32:51,073 --> 00:32:54,076
for the singing
and the dancing and the vodka.
488
00:32:54,159 --> 00:32:56,119
But most especially to my friend,
Peter Cincotti.
489
00:32:56,203 --> 00:32:57,204
Thank you.
490
00:32:57,287 --> 00:32:59,081
Coming all the way here
to the White House.
491
00:32:59,164 --> 00:33:02,167
Thank you. Thank you!
Thank you for a wonderful evening.
492
00:33:02,251 --> 00:33:05,128
Wonderful.
And thank you to you, Mr. Cincotti.
493
00:33:05,212 --> 00:33:06,422
Thank you. Thank you.
494
00:33:08,382 --> 00:33:10,259
Your motorcade is ready, Mr. President.
495
00:33:10,342 --> 00:33:11,468
I'll walk you out.
496
00:33:11,551 --> 00:33:13,845
But first, I want to show you something.
Come with me.
497
00:33:13,929 --> 00:33:15,847
- We'll be right down, Calista.
- Yes, sir.
498
00:33:17,349 --> 00:33:20,685
What if I get you transferred?
To some other agency.
499
00:33:20,769 --> 00:33:22,938
It doesn't matter
who I work for. He'll find a way.
500
00:33:27,734 --> 00:33:29,736
How much do you care about staying here?
501
00:33:29,819 --> 00:33:31,613
- What, DC?
- In this country.
502
00:33:31,696 --> 00:33:35,825
I'd have been long gone if they didn't
put a travel lock on my passport.
503
00:33:35,909 --> 00:33:37,660
So let's unlock it.
504
00:33:39,455 --> 00:33:42,791
Is that something you can do?
If I get you what you want?
505
00:33:43,750 --> 00:33:46,420
I need to know exactly where she is.
506
00:33:46,503 --> 00:33:49,923
Not a state. Not a city.
An address.
507
00:33:50,006 --> 00:33:54,136
If I use the Bureau's software and
get caught, I'll give them your name.
508
00:33:54,219 --> 00:33:56,054
I understand.
509
00:34:02,811 --> 00:34:03,853
All right.
510
00:34:05,188 --> 00:34:06,940
Tell me everything you know about her.
511
00:34:08,066 --> 00:34:09,443
Good night.
512
00:34:12,821 --> 00:34:15,157
- How about a night cap?
- Oh, it's late.
513
00:34:15,240 --> 00:34:17,867
And I haven't had that much vodka
since college.
514
00:34:17,951 --> 00:34:19,328
Tulane, right?
515
00:34:19,411 --> 00:34:21,538
So they tell me.
It's all a bit of a blur.
516
00:34:21,621 --> 00:34:24,040
What did you drink in school?
Hurricanes?
517
00:34:24,124 --> 00:34:27,377
Oh, we weren't barbarians.
Scotch, no ice.
518
00:34:27,461 --> 00:34:30,506
Oh... Two Chivas, neat.
519
00:34:34,134 --> 00:34:36,052
Cubans. Smuggled in.
520
00:34:36,136 --> 00:34:38,221
I thought you might
appreciate the irony.
521
00:34:38,305 --> 00:34:40,140
Ah. I do.
522
00:34:44,811 --> 00:34:47,939
Ah. And where does this lead?
523
00:34:48,023 --> 00:34:49,525
Basement entrance.
524
00:34:49,607 --> 00:34:52,027
The Nixon kids would
bring their dates up this way.
525
00:34:52,110 --> 00:34:55,364
Kennedy probably used it
for similar reasons.
526
00:34:55,447 --> 00:34:57,449
Well, you know, now that I'm divorced,
527
00:34:57,533 --> 00:35:00,285
I don't have to sneak anyone
in and out of the palace.
528
00:35:00,369 --> 00:35:03,246
They can come through the front door.
With some dignity.
529
00:35:03,330 --> 00:35:06,542
Well, dignity's a bit overrated
for a mistress, don't you think?
530
00:35:09,836 --> 00:35:14,924
Ah... you know,
a woman like your wife, for example,
531
00:35:15,008 --> 00:35:18,303
would certainly make it worthwhile.
532
00:35:18,387 --> 00:35:21,056
Do you kiss the wife
of every president you meet?
533
00:35:21,139 --> 00:35:24,476
Oh. Not every president's wife
looks like yours.
534
00:35:25,727 --> 00:35:28,688
I'd push him down the stairs
and light his broken body on fire
535
00:35:28,771 --> 00:35:32,650
just to watch it burn,
if it wouldn't start a world war.
536
00:35:32,734 --> 00:35:34,819
- May I?
- Of course.
537
00:35:39,616 --> 00:35:41,659
Well, do you think
they'll ever come around?
538
00:35:41,743 --> 00:35:43,537
Oh, I don't know.
539
00:35:43,620 --> 00:35:46,122
There'll be more summits,
a hundred CoDels.
540
00:35:46,206 --> 00:35:50,419
They'll ping-pong back and forth
for months before Petrov shows his hand.
541
00:35:54,256 --> 00:35:56,674
- What?
- Nothing.
542
00:35:56,758 --> 00:35:58,093
Tell me.
543
00:35:58,176 --> 00:36:01,430
I was just picturing Bugakov
playing ping-pong.
544
00:36:01,513 --> 00:36:05,350
Bugayev?
545
00:36:05,434 --> 00:36:07,727
Imagine him playing beer pong.
546
00:36:07,810 --> 00:36:10,355
Then these negotiations would be over.
547
00:36:10,439 --> 00:36:14,234
You are looking at the Delta Phi
beer pong champion.
548
00:36:14,317 --> 00:36:15,777
- No.
- Yes.
549
00:36:15,860 --> 00:36:17,862
Both sophomore and junior years.
550
00:36:17,946 --> 00:36:19,489
And what happened senior year?
551
00:36:19,573 --> 00:36:21,783
Well, I had to start studying
for law school.
552
00:36:23,826 --> 00:36:27,414
Well, I wasn't... a champion.
553
00:36:27,497 --> 00:36:29,749
- I wasn't too bad, though.
- You?
554
00:36:29,832 --> 00:36:32,461
Mm-hm.
555
00:36:32,544 --> 00:36:34,588
- I think we should play.
- What?
556
00:36:34,671 --> 00:36:35,797
Oh, you can't be serious.
557
00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:38,920
Excuse me? Can you ask housekeeping
to bring us some ping-pong balls, please?
558
00:36:38,925 --> 00:36:41,261
I have got to go home.
559
00:36:41,344 --> 00:36:43,472
We'll be playing by Harvard rules.
560
00:36:47,142 --> 00:36:51,062
You have to admire their fearlessness.
561
00:36:53,064 --> 00:36:55,400
None of them understand, do they?
562
00:36:56,067 --> 00:36:58,111
What it takes to govern.
563
00:36:58,194 --> 00:37:00,656
They scream and yell
and stomp their feet,
564
00:37:00,738 --> 00:37:03,366
but if they had to spend
just one day in our shoes,
565
00:37:03,450 --> 00:37:06,244
the weight we carry on our shoulders...
566
00:37:06,328 --> 00:37:09,914
Like, um... the Middle East?
567
00:37:11,291 --> 00:37:14,836
Oh, I know why we're here,
smoking our cigars.
568
00:37:17,380 --> 00:37:21,259
- And?
- You're not going to like it.
569
00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:27,015
Yes! Ha-ha!
570
00:37:27,098 --> 00:37:28,891
Drink up.
571
00:37:33,605 --> 00:37:35,231
Okay. For the Crimson.
572
00:37:40,153 --> 00:37:42,698
Damn!
573
00:37:50,205 --> 00:37:53,124
Yes! I still got it.
574
00:37:56,753 --> 00:37:58,714
You don't have to drink that.
575
00:37:58,796 --> 00:38:00,173
I accept your mercy.
576
00:38:01,341 --> 00:38:05,762
And I am going to leave
before you challenge me to a rematch.
577
00:38:05,845 --> 00:38:08,806
You're not even gonna give me a shot
at winning in my own house?
578
00:38:08,890 --> 00:38:11,685
First rule of diplomacy:
stop while you're ahead,
579
00:38:11,768 --> 00:38:15,772
which is what I should've done,
after that third vodka of Petrov's.
580
00:38:17,482 --> 00:38:19,526
What do you think of him?
581
00:38:20,235 --> 00:38:23,488
Petrov? I don't know.
582
00:38:24,698 --> 00:38:26,824
You were the one
who talked to him all night.
583
00:38:26,908 --> 00:38:28,660
Well, I didn't have much of a choice.
584
00:38:28,744 --> 00:38:31,246
So, not a fan?
585
00:38:31,329 --> 00:38:34,541
I think he's very intelligent.
And he has a charm.
586
00:38:34,624 --> 00:38:37,126
That kiss was... too much.
587
00:38:37,210 --> 00:38:39,546
No, that's just pushing buttons.
588
00:38:39,629 --> 00:38:42,716
The Russians love to do that.
589
00:38:42,799 --> 00:38:44,426
Good night.
590
00:38:45,594 --> 00:38:48,471
I don't think he's to be trusted, Cathy.
591
00:38:48,555 --> 00:38:51,725
Especially after tonight.
And it made me think...
592
00:38:54,102 --> 00:38:55,562
Go on.
593
00:38:56,521 --> 00:38:59,315
It made me wonder about Francis' plan.
594
00:38:59,399 --> 00:39:03,861
I'm not sure that it's a good idea
to be partnered with Petrov.
595
00:39:03,945 --> 00:39:07,699
In the meantime,
we alienate Israel and Palestine.
596
00:39:10,368 --> 00:39:14,831
Well... between you and me, I agree.
597
00:39:16,999 --> 00:39:18,835
Sit with me.
598
00:39:19,919 --> 00:39:21,963
What would you do differently?
599
00:39:24,299 --> 00:39:25,925
Well...
600
00:39:27,302 --> 00:39:30,472
If the goal is to get troops
into the Jordan Valley,
601
00:39:30,555 --> 00:39:34,267
well, then there's more than one way
to skin that cat.
602
00:39:34,350 --> 00:39:36,352
A multinational force?
603
00:39:36,436 --> 00:39:39,188
I would go through the UN.
604
00:39:39,272 --> 00:39:41,274
Peacekeeping?
605
00:39:41,357 --> 00:39:43,318
You wouldn't get past Russia's veto.
606
00:39:43,401 --> 00:39:47,864
There might be a way, but...
607
00:39:47,947 --> 00:39:52,034
you'd have a lot of responsibility
on your shoulders.
608
00:39:52,118 --> 00:39:55,455
Well, if you can give me guidance,
I'm sure I can handle it.
609
00:39:57,123 --> 00:40:01,670
There is precedent
with the Uniting for Peace Resolution.
610
00:40:01,753 --> 00:40:04,881
We used it to get around
the Russians for the Korean War.
611
00:40:10,219 --> 00:40:13,181
- The whole thing?
- From Poland to the UK.
612
00:40:13,264 --> 00:40:15,558
I want the entire
missile defense system gone.
613
00:40:15,642 --> 00:40:18,561
You know that's there to defend
against North Korea, against Iran.
614
00:40:18,645 --> 00:40:20,438
And far closer
to my borders than theirs.
615
00:40:20,522 --> 00:40:23,232
I'm asking for a few thousand troops
in the Jordan Valley.
616
00:40:23,316 --> 00:40:25,437
You're asking me to dismantle
Europe's defense system.
617
00:40:25,443 --> 00:40:27,904
What you're really asking for
is American forces
618
00:40:27,987 --> 00:40:29,656
just south of the Caucasus.
619
00:40:29,739 --> 00:40:32,074
You must have a strategic play in mind.
620
00:40:32,158 --> 00:40:34,202
This is about stability in the region.
621
00:40:34,285 --> 00:40:37,580
You're trying to consolidate
your foothold in the region. Hm?
622
00:40:37,664 --> 00:40:41,334
The Black Sea, Kazakhstan,
Chechnya, Crimea.
623
00:40:41,417 --> 00:40:45,171
So, please...
don't insult me with peace.
624
00:40:47,590 --> 00:40:53,304
Whatever your strategic goals may be,
the missile defense system is mine.
625
00:40:54,848 --> 00:40:58,727
Viktor, I invited you to Washington
with pure intentions,
626
00:40:58,810 --> 00:41:01,938
so that we could break bread
and learn to trust one another.
627
00:41:02,021 --> 00:41:05,066
Francis, I don't get softened up
628
00:41:05,149 --> 00:41:08,110
by a nice dinner
and dancing with a beautiful woman.
629
00:41:09,612 --> 00:41:11,406
You asked me what I want.
630
00:41:11,489 --> 00:41:13,575
Well... I told you.
631
00:41:16,994 --> 00:41:18,454
I'll tell you what.
632
00:41:18,538 --> 00:41:20,164
It's my turn to get some sleep.
633
00:41:20,248 --> 00:41:21,848
Let's attack all this with a fresh mind.
634
00:41:21,875 --> 00:41:24,502
We've barely smoked our cigars.
635
00:41:25,670 --> 00:41:28,840
We're not men of excess, though, are we?
636
00:41:30,341 --> 00:41:31,927
Aren't we?
637
00:41:35,722 --> 00:41:37,473
No, no.
638
00:41:37,557 --> 00:41:39,225
No, you're right.
639
00:41:41,811 --> 00:41:44,230
Enough smoke for one evening.
640
00:41:58,787 --> 00:42:00,705
What are you going to do?
641
00:42:01,581 --> 00:42:03,959
I don't know.
642
00:42:04,041 --> 00:42:05,919
Try to meet him halfway.
643
00:42:08,421 --> 00:42:10,966
Cathy and I were talking.
644
00:42:11,048 --> 00:42:13,384
Maybe the Israelis
and the Palestinians are right.
645
00:42:13,468 --> 00:42:15,637
We should consider starting with them.
646
00:42:15,720 --> 00:42:18,222
Use the United Nations
to put pressure on Russia.
647
00:42:18,306 --> 00:42:21,726
- How?
- Uniting for Peace.
648
00:42:21,810 --> 00:42:25,480
General Assembly overrides
a Russian veto in the Security Council.
649
00:42:25,563 --> 00:42:29,692
Well, that'll just antagonize them
even if it works. And it won't.
650
00:42:29,776 --> 00:42:32,528
Well, it might work.
Cathy seems to think it could.
651
00:42:32,612 --> 00:42:35,364
I thought you believed in this plan.
652
00:42:35,448 --> 00:42:38,827
We were just...
brainstorming alternatives.
653
00:42:38,910 --> 00:42:41,788
Well, I've worked too hard on it
just to abandon it.
654
00:42:43,414 --> 00:42:45,458
Okay, you know best.
655
00:43:07,563 --> 00:43:09,190
Do you mind?
656
00:43:10,984 --> 00:43:12,401
What?
657
00:43:12,485 --> 00:43:13,736
The light.
658
00:43:26,290 --> 00:43:27,876
Francis.
659
00:43:29,585 --> 00:43:31,629
He's a thug.
660
00:43:31,713 --> 00:43:33,548
Smart, but he's still a thug.
661
00:43:33,631 --> 00:43:35,341
Don't cower to him.
662
00:43:44,392 --> 00:43:49,438
Where I come from, we drop a raw egg
into some tomato juice and drink that.
663
00:43:49,522 --> 00:43:51,399
Luckily, I don't come from there.
664
00:43:53,068 --> 00:43:56,404
That's a perfect job for Doug.
I can't imagine why he'd turn it down.
665
00:43:56,487 --> 00:43:58,280
He thinks we were behind it.
666
00:43:58,364 --> 00:44:00,825
I told him we weren't,
but I don't think he believes me.
667
00:44:00,909 --> 00:44:02,785
Said he doesn't need training wheels.
668
00:44:02,869 --> 00:44:05,747
Well, I want you to still stop in
from time to time and see him.
669
00:44:05,830 --> 00:44:06,873
Yes, sir.
670
00:44:08,041 --> 00:44:10,752
Is the Secretary of Defense here?
Send him in.
671
00:44:13,212 --> 00:44:15,214
- Mr. President.
- We don't have much time.
672
00:44:15,297 --> 00:44:17,884
Petrov gets here in 90 minutes.
We need to talk Europe.
673
00:45:00,301 --> 00:45:02,762
The answer is yes.
674
00:45:03,638 --> 00:45:08,225
- To some, not all, of what you asked.
- I see.
675
00:45:08,309 --> 00:45:10,728
I'm prepared
to scale back significantly.
676
00:45:10,812 --> 00:45:15,357
Now, I have to speak to my team first
and my allies in NATO,
677
00:45:15,441 --> 00:45:17,777
but I'm confident that we can
do something meaningful
678
00:45:17,860 --> 00:45:20,029
in Poland and the Czech Republic.
679
00:45:20,113 --> 00:45:22,490
Now, our people
can work out the specifics.
680
00:45:22,573 --> 00:45:27,495
And whatever it is we decide
and agree on, the public cannot know.
681
00:45:32,083 --> 00:45:35,461
I woke up with the taste
of those cigars in my mouth.
682
00:45:36,420 --> 00:45:39,256
Thinking of Cuba and Kennedy.
683
00:45:39,340 --> 00:45:42,885
I won't be humiliated
the way Khrushchev was with Turkey.
684
00:45:42,969 --> 00:45:47,015
Well, you can't possibly compare what
I'm proposing to what happened then.
685
00:45:47,098 --> 00:45:50,101
I can only consider a partial
scale-back if you announce it.
686
00:45:53,104 --> 00:45:55,148
This press conference
is about the Jordan Valley.
687
00:45:55,231 --> 00:45:58,193
The most important thing about the
missiles is the scale-back, not the PR.
688
00:45:58,275 --> 00:46:00,611
My people would know
I walked away with something.
689
00:46:00,695 --> 00:46:05,200
And, by announcing it,
I can keep you to your word.
690
00:46:05,282 --> 00:46:07,994
I am more than
meeting you halfway, Viktor.
691
00:46:14,792 --> 00:46:18,379
You know what the best part
of the fall of the Soviet Union was?
692
00:46:19,338 --> 00:46:20,965
The cars.
693
00:46:22,008 --> 00:46:24,719
Have you ever been in, um... a Lada?
694
00:46:24,802 --> 00:46:26,303
Lada? No, I haven't.
695
00:46:26,387 --> 00:46:29,140
No? Oh. It's the worst car ever built.
696
00:46:29,224 --> 00:46:30,808
Tiny, little thing, you know.
697
00:46:30,892 --> 00:46:34,311
Your head would hit the ceiling
when you hit a pothole.
698
00:46:34,395 --> 00:46:37,523
And the heat never worked.
699
00:46:37,606 --> 00:46:39,108
And no air conditioning.
700
00:46:39,192 --> 00:46:42,195
You know, your skin would stick
to the seats in the summer.
701
00:46:42,278 --> 00:46:44,072
It was a coffin on wheels.
702
00:46:44,155 --> 00:46:48,659
But then, after the fall,
we got the Lexus.
703
00:46:50,036 --> 00:46:53,248
Temperature control.
Automatic windows.
704
00:46:53,330 --> 00:46:55,208
And so much room.
705
00:46:55,291 --> 00:46:58,294
First time I fucked my ex-wife,
in a Lexus.
706
00:46:58,419 --> 00:47:00,379
You could never do that in a Lada.
707
00:47:00,462 --> 00:47:02,924
No space. Huh?
708
00:47:03,007 --> 00:47:05,885
You see, Mr. President.
709
00:47:05,968 --> 00:47:07,720
I want the Lexus.
710
00:47:08,763 --> 00:47:11,182
And you're trying to sell me a Lada.
711
00:47:37,458 --> 00:47:39,877
I'll have them bring
your motorcade around.
712
00:47:43,089 --> 00:47:45,258
But the... press conference.
713
00:47:46,050 --> 00:47:49,804
Oh. Right!
714
00:47:49,887 --> 00:47:51,889
I'd completely forgotten.
715
00:47:52,974 --> 00:47:55,643
But I think we're gonna be okay
without one today.
716
00:47:57,686 --> 00:47:59,814
Have a safe journey home,
Mr. President.
717
00:48:09,198 --> 00:48:11,867
Thank you for your hospitality,
Mr. President.
718
00:48:22,295 --> 00:48:24,297
Give me the Secretary of State.
719
00:48:38,353 --> 00:48:41,438
The president will be speaking alone.
No joint conference.
720
00:48:43,816 --> 00:48:45,901
The president will be out shortly.
721
00:48:52,367 --> 00:48:54,952
Last night,
I had the pleasure of hosting
722
00:48:55,036 --> 00:48:57,955
some very special guests
here at the White House.
723
00:48:58,039 --> 00:49:00,958
True Russian patriots
who exhibit the very best
724
00:49:01,042 --> 00:49:03,336
that their country has to offer.
725
00:49:03,419 --> 00:49:06,297
Nadya Tolokonnikova,
726
00:49:06,381 --> 00:49:09,717
Masha Alyokhina and Pyotr Verzilov.
727
00:49:09,800 --> 00:49:13,304
As you're all aware,
they stood up to President Petrov,
728
00:49:13,388 --> 00:49:17,850
and forced him to listen to the truths
that he didn't want to hear.
729
00:49:19,310 --> 00:49:22,980
And, well, that had
a profound effect on me.
730
00:49:23,064 --> 00:49:26,150
Because it made me realize
that I need to stand up to him as well.
731
00:49:26,234 --> 00:49:28,403
As does our country.
732
00:49:28,485 --> 00:49:32,740
When I invited the president here,
I set out hoping to find a partner.
733
00:49:32,823 --> 00:49:35,284
But the demands
that President Petrov made
734
00:49:35,368 --> 00:49:40,248
proves to me that peace
is not a priority for him.
735
00:49:40,331 --> 00:49:43,834
Peace should not have to be bought.
736
00:49:43,918 --> 00:49:46,712
Peace should be its own reward,
737
00:49:46,795 --> 00:49:50,383
and we will achieve it,
with or without him.
738
00:49:50,466 --> 00:49:52,468
Thank you very much.
739
00:49:52,551 --> 00:49:54,762
You have thoughts
on how to bypass Russia.
740
00:49:54,845 --> 00:49:58,349
The idea is to negate Russia's
veto in the Security Council.
741
00:49:58,433 --> 00:50:01,560
I'll let the ambassador tell you
what we have in mind.
742
00:50:08,429 --> 00:52:34,916
