1
00:00:20,253 --> 00:00:23,279
You have made a very big mistake,
Mr Dalton.
2
00:00:23,590 --> 00:00:25,615
I can't imagine
what you hoped to achieve
3
00:00:25,725 --> 00:00:28,193
with this vicious
and unwarranted attack,
4
00:00:28,294 --> 00:00:31,991
but I promise you,
we will meet you in equal measure.
5
00:00:32,098 --> 00:00:35,693
President Ostrov,
I can assure you that the United States
6
00:00:35,802 --> 00:00:37,997
is just learning of this
with the rest of the world.
7
00:00:38,104 --> 00:00:39,867
Your lies are beneath you
8
00:00:39,973 --> 00:00:42,942
and they are an insult
to myself and the Russian people.
9
00:00:43,043 --> 00:00:44,010
You will pay for this.
10
00:00:44,110 --> 00:00:46,635
I'm flattered that you think
we could organize a cyber attack
11
00:00:46,746 --> 00:00:49,909
capable of crippling a city
of Moscow's power and magnitude.
12
00:00:50,116 --> 00:00:51,777
If we had managed
to pull that together,
13
00:00:51,918 --> 00:00:54,978
it would have to be in response
to something equally unprecedented.
14
00:00:55,121 --> 00:00:58,022
Like someone hacking into
the navigation and communication system
15
00:00:58,124 --> 00:01:01,787
on Air Force One, putting the lives
of all on board at risk.
16
00:01:01,928 --> 00:01:05,591
You are insane.
Russia never hacked Air Force One.
17
00:01:05,865 --> 00:01:10,529
And the US didn't black out Moscow,
so we can part on neutral ground.
18
00:01:10,637 --> 00:01:12,662
No, we will part on my promise
19
00:01:12,806 --> 00:01:16,902
that Russia will not stand
for this affront to its sovereignty,
20
00:01:17,010 --> 00:01:20,070
and retaliatory measures
will be taken immediately.
21
00:01:22,115 --> 00:01:25,016
Well, I like her. She's got moxie.
22
00:01:25,118 --> 00:01:28,349
Mr President, I think we can file
that one under "message received."
23
00:01:28,822 --> 00:01:33,020
Am I the only one concerned
about her subtle vows of retaliation?
24
00:01:33,126 --> 00:01:34,115
Par for the course.
25
00:01:34,294 --> 00:01:37,786
That's pretty much the clarion call
of any aggrieved demagogue.
26
00:01:37,931 --> 00:01:42,197
Actually, the smart thing for her to do
would be to deny the US's involvement,
27
00:01:42,335 --> 00:01:44,826
spare herself the embarrassment
of taking the hit.
28
00:01:44,971 --> 00:01:46,131
So we're betting on smart?
29
00:01:46,372 --> 00:01:49,102
The fact that she's even
running the show is theater.
30
00:01:49,209 --> 00:01:52,076
She's gonna listen to the counsel
of her generals and advisors.
31
00:01:52,178 --> 00:01:54,373
They understand the cost
of a military response.
32
00:01:54,647 --> 00:01:58,310
And we can track any movement in that
regard. But we're not too concerned.
33
00:01:58,418 --> 00:01:59,715
She's been put in her place.
34
00:01:59,986 --> 00:02:03,046
And she knows we won't tolerate
any signs of aggression
35
00:02:03,156 --> 00:02:04,555
toward us or Ukraine.
36
00:02:04,657 --> 00:02:10,027
Alright, well, I'll get to work
on State's non-denial denial.
37
00:02:10,130 --> 00:02:14,032
Make it a full-throttle denial.
Lying to save the world is allowed.
38
00:02:14,134 --> 00:02:15,658
It's in the Constitution.
39
00:02:15,802 --> 00:02:20,205
OK. Where the cyber attack is concerned,
we're in the dark right along with them.
40
00:02:20,340 --> 00:02:23,241
- That's good.
- I'm not really gonna say that.
41
00:02:23,343 --> 00:02:25,675
I would.
42
00:02:25,812 --> 00:02:26,836
Thanks, everyone.
43
00:02:27,147 --> 00:02:30,605
Is it wrong
to eat cereal for dinner? I don't care.
44
00:02:33,219 --> 00:02:36,916
So how was your day, Slugger? Or Boomer?
45
00:02:37,056 --> 00:02:39,081
What is the universal
linebacker nickname?
46
00:02:39,192 --> 00:02:41,285
- Brainless.
- Be nice.
47
00:02:42,195 --> 00:02:46,097
So this horse
walks into the doctor's office.
48
00:02:46,199 --> 00:02:49,225
- The doctor says why the long face?
- Why the long face?
49
00:02:49,369 --> 00:02:52,600
I don't know. I just love that.
It gets me every time.
50
00:02:52,705 --> 00:02:54,832
- Thank you.
- Yeah.
51
00:02:55,041 --> 00:02:57,908
So, what's up?
52
00:02:58,044 --> 00:03:01,138
I, uh, just got some bad news
from the coach.
53
00:03:01,514 --> 00:03:05,712
- Oh, no. Is he cutting you?
- No. He's, uh, he's starting me.
54
00:03:06,719 --> 00:03:09,051
- Well, hey, that's great.
- Wow.
55
00:03:09,155 --> 00:03:11,350
I'd think you'd be excited about that.
56
00:03:11,624 --> 00:03:15,253
We're facing the biggest team in the
league, with the playoffs on the line,
57
00:03:15,361 --> 00:03:16,726
and suddenly it's my turn?
58
00:03:16,829 --> 00:03:19,320
Well, Jason, he must have seen
a lot of progress in practice.
59
00:03:19,599 --> 00:03:21,692
- Otherwise he wouldn't put you in.
- Nice try, Dad.
60
00:03:21,801 --> 00:03:24,167
Derrick got benched for a D in geometry,
61
00:03:24,537 --> 00:03:26,562
Eli broke his arm
and Gabe's moving to Florida.
62
00:03:26,673 --> 00:03:30,234
- So I'm sort of forced into this one.
- Are you afraid you're gonna get hurt?
63
00:03:30,343 --> 00:03:32,106
No, I'm worried about being humiliated
64
00:03:32,212 --> 00:03:35,113
and letting the whole team
and in fact the whole school down.
65
00:03:35,215 --> 00:03:38,742
I mean, I did this to make friends and
I'm about to alienate everyone I know.
66
00:03:38,851 --> 00:03:42,287
- Jase, it's gonna be OK.
- Or maybe you won't even play.
67
00:03:42,589 --> 00:03:45,615
Everyone's saying that Russia's
gonna retaliate for the cyber attack.
68
00:03:45,725 --> 00:03:47,852
Hard to have Friday Night Lights
with no lights.
69
00:03:47,961 --> 00:03:49,952
What cyber attack?
Where'd you get this?
70
00:03:50,063 --> 00:03:54,329
- Every major news outlet.
- Yeah, well, it's all speculation.
71
00:03:54,801 --> 00:03:56,564
There's no evidence of an attack.
72
00:03:56,836 --> 00:03:58,861
Why don't you kids go eat
in front of the TV?
73
00:03:58,972 --> 00:04:01,031
OK, now I know the world is ending.
74
00:04:04,811 --> 00:04:07,177
So, was it us?
75
00:04:08,848 --> 00:04:11,214
Russia has an antiquated infrastructure.
76
00:04:11,351 --> 00:04:14,548
The blackout could be
the Chernobyl of the power grid.
77
00:04:14,687 --> 00:04:16,882
OK, I know that we can't divulge stuff,
78
00:04:17,023 --> 00:04:19,150
but I didn't know
we'd moved on to spinning each other.
79
00:04:19,259 --> 00:04:22,922
I'm just giving you what
the White House's official position is.
80
00:04:23,062 --> 00:04:24,154
OK, let's try this.
81
00:04:24,264 --> 00:04:27,165
If it was us, was it in response
to what happened on Air Force One?
82
00:04:27,267 --> 00:04:29,292
Solar flares happened on Air Force One.
83
00:04:29,636 --> 00:04:33,231
I was read into that one.
I know about the malware.
84
00:04:34,073 --> 00:04:38,066
Well, not who was behind it,
because we didn't know.
85
00:04:38,177 --> 00:04:40,236
- And we do now?
- Are you OK?
86
00:04:40,647 --> 00:04:43,172
Cos I know that you've been
very stressed out lately.
87
00:04:43,283 --> 00:04:45,581
Don't gaslight me.
88
00:04:45,852 --> 00:04:48,252
You're the one who's been all worried
about us keeping secrets.
89
00:04:48,354 --> 00:04:51,255
That was just venting.
This is real world.
90
00:04:51,357 --> 00:04:58,923
Henry, we almost went to... to prison
for sharing classified information.
91
00:04:59,065 --> 00:05:00,498
So we cannot talk.
92
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:04,229
I thought maybe being on the verge
of World War III might change the rules.
93
00:05:05,104 --> 00:05:07,231
Nope.
94
00:05:09,909 --> 00:05:15,245
Can we maybe just stop talking about
what we may or may not be talking about?
95
00:05:17,050 --> 00:05:19,143
Sure.
96
00:05:21,287 --> 00:05:24,051
- Where are you going?
- Can't talk about it.
97
00:05:35,001 --> 00:05:37,196
Do you know anything
about the situation in Russia?
98
00:05:37,303 --> 00:05:41,239
Nothing. I could speculate,
but DIA hasn't read me into anything.
99
00:05:41,341 --> 00:05:43,241
- Any word from Dmitri?
- No.
100
00:05:43,343 --> 00:05:47,609
I don't know how long he stayed
in Moscow after he contacted us.
101
00:05:47,714 --> 00:05:49,306
Did he feel like he'd been compromised?
102
00:05:49,549 --> 00:05:53,246
He didn't say anything, but it could be
the reason that he wanted out.
103
00:05:53,353 --> 00:05:54,911
That would be unfortunate.
104
00:05:55,021 --> 00:05:57,888
Has the president seen
the battle plan report from Doroshevich?
105
00:05:58,024 --> 00:06:00,185
The president? No. Uh, why would he?
106
00:06:00,293 --> 00:06:03,626
He might be interested to know
about a planned attack on Ukraine.
107
00:06:03,930 --> 00:06:06,194
You think he doesn't know
Russia has designs on Ukraine?
108
00:06:06,299 --> 00:06:09,200
He might also be interested
in what wasn't in the report.
109
00:06:09,302 --> 00:06:10,599
What would that be?
110
00:06:10,703 --> 00:06:14,139
Any plan to attack the computer system
of Air Force One.
111
00:06:14,307 --> 00:06:16,502
I'm not connecting the dots here.
112
00:06:16,642 --> 00:06:20,305
If the blackout was an attack by the US,
they went under the assumption
113
00:06:20,646 --> 00:06:22,671
that Russia was behind the hack
of Air Force One.
114
00:06:22,815 --> 00:06:23,839
OK.
115
00:06:23,983 --> 00:06:27,248
The playbook that Dmitri gave us
laid out Russia's entire strategy
116
00:06:27,353 --> 00:06:28,684
for the invasion of Ukraine,
117
00:06:28,988 --> 00:06:32,219
including aggressive diversionary
tactics to deter US involvement.
118
00:06:32,325 --> 00:06:34,259
OK, what is your ETA
on the point, Henry?
119
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:36,658
They gamed out every crazy scenario
120
00:06:36,763 --> 00:06:40,722
from taking over Arctic drilling sites
to instigating conflict with ISIS.
121
00:06:40,833 --> 00:06:47,204
But there was nothing, nothing...
about a hack of Air Force One.
122
00:06:47,340 --> 00:06:50,901
Just because they didn't put it in the
report doesn't mean they didn't do it.
123
00:06:51,010 --> 00:06:52,307
You're trying to prove a negative.
124
00:06:52,545 --> 00:06:54,877
You don't wanna get
into a dialectic with me.
125
00:06:55,114 --> 00:06:57,639
OK, you're right. I don't even
wanna have this conversation.
126
00:06:57,750 --> 00:06:58,717
You're crossing lines.
127
00:06:58,851 --> 00:07:01,843
Just tell me you'll make an effort
to get this report to the White House.
128
00:07:01,954 --> 00:07:03,148
How?
129
00:07:03,990 --> 00:07:06,322
Call the president. Demand to see him.
130
00:07:06,559 --> 00:07:08,550
Henry, you might be coming
a little unglued.
131
00:07:08,694 --> 00:07:10,787
I know you're upset about Dmitri.
132
00:07:10,897 --> 00:07:12,831
At least get it into the hands
of Ephraim Ware.
133
00:07:12,932 --> 00:07:14,866
- The DNI needs to know about this.
- Stop.
134
00:07:14,967 --> 00:07:17,162
You're getting above your pay grade.
And mine.
135
00:07:17,303 --> 00:07:19,737
You've done your duty, Professor.
Let us handle this.
136
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:39,000
Ripped & Corrected By mstoll
137
00:07:58,077 --> 00:08:01,171
These three pipelines went
offline approximately two hours ago.
138
00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:06,149
We've received reliable verification
from both US and European intelligence
139
00:08:06,252 --> 00:08:10,313
that the pipelines were shut down
by direct order of Maria Ostrov.
140
00:08:10,556 --> 00:08:12,319
Those particular pipelines
141
00:08:12,558 --> 00:08:15,755
provide 40 pre cent
of Western Europe's supply of gas,
142
00:08:15,895 --> 00:08:19,831
just as they're heading into one of the
fiercest winters predicted in decades.
143
00:08:19,932 --> 00:08:22,025
So much for blustering.
144
00:08:23,135 --> 00:08:26,571
It's a clear message
that she's not playing by the rules.
145
00:08:26,772 --> 00:08:28,205
She's escalating the conflict.
146
00:08:28,307 --> 00:08:31,504
Turning America's NATO allies
into collateral damage.
147
00:08:31,611 --> 00:08:33,636
Mr President,
they wanna break the alliance
148
00:08:33,746 --> 00:08:35,873
so they can run the table
with Eastern Europe.
149
00:08:36,148 --> 00:08:39,515
It's something Pavel Ostrov coveted
and now she's trying to make it happen.
150
00:08:39,619 --> 00:08:41,883
This has stopped being a dialogue.
151
00:08:41,988 --> 00:08:43,649
It's a march to war.
152
00:08:45,091 --> 00:08:49,187
Then we need to retaliate.
And we need to hit them hard.
153
00:09:04,277 --> 00:09:05,972
We can neutralize the targets in Crimea,
154
00:09:06,078 --> 00:09:09,206
air strikes to follow, to address
any aggression on the Ukraine border.
155
00:09:09,615 --> 00:09:12,015
And, worst-case scenario,
boots on the ground.
156
00:09:12,118 --> 00:09:15,781
- Just enough to make a point.
- And what point is that?
157
00:09:15,888 --> 00:09:17,583
That we're willing to use
military force.
158
00:09:17,823 --> 00:09:20,257
But I thought the point
of the power grid attack
159
00:09:20,526 --> 00:09:22,221
is that we weren't willing to do that.
160
00:09:22,528 --> 00:09:25,964
- That was before this latest action.
- You had to know they would respond.
161
00:09:26,265 --> 00:09:28,699
We honestly thought
it would be much more measured.
162
00:09:28,801 --> 00:09:32,168
- This... This is extreme.
- They escalated, so we have to.
163
00:09:34,941 --> 00:09:36,932
Why can't we reach out to our allies?
164
00:09:37,043 --> 00:09:39,603
Western Europe's
holding us fully accountable.
165
00:09:39,712 --> 00:09:42,272
- They're blaming us for all of it.
- Well, of course they are.
166
00:09:42,548 --> 00:09:45,016
Because no one knows what's going on.
167
00:09:45,117 --> 00:09:48,109
We're still calling Air Force One
solar flares.
168
00:09:48,220 --> 00:09:49,653
What are you proposing?
169
00:09:50,690 --> 00:09:52,590
I wanna go before the UN.
170
00:09:52,692 --> 00:09:57,652
I wanna give them a lay-down speech
and spell it out for them step by step.
171
00:09:57,763 --> 00:10:02,166
We give evidence of military overreach
by Russia against the US and Ukraine.
172
00:10:02,268 --> 00:10:06,932
We divulge all of their aggression.
173
00:10:07,039 --> 00:10:10,600
The attack on Air Force One,
the poloniumed hacker,
174
00:10:10,710 --> 00:10:14,544
the financial records
that point to Russian GRU.
175
00:10:14,680 --> 00:10:18,377
Mr President,
that is a radical roll of the dice.
176
00:10:18,618 --> 00:10:21,610
Putting all our cards on the table
leaves us nowhere else to turn
177
00:10:21,754 --> 00:10:22,914
if the allies don't go for it.
178
00:10:23,022 --> 00:10:26,389
Which, given the current climate, I
think it's a pretty safe bet they won't.
179
00:10:27,293 --> 00:10:29,352
Nowhere else to turn?
180
00:10:30,896 --> 00:10:34,024
You mean as opposed to all those other
comfortable options we'll have
181
00:10:34,166 --> 00:10:37,658
after we launch
a full-scale military campaign
182
00:10:37,770 --> 00:10:40,568
against the world's
second-biggest nuclear power?
183
00:10:40,673 --> 00:10:44,165
Elizabeth, it's an enormous gamble.
184
00:10:44,610 --> 00:10:46,100
It would have to be
the speech of your life,
185
00:10:46,245 --> 00:10:48,975
right up there with Adlai Stevenson
in the Cuban Missile Crisis.
186
00:10:49,081 --> 00:10:51,276
I think that's an apt analogy.
187
00:10:52,918 --> 00:10:54,249
And I think I'm up to it.
188
00:11:01,093 --> 00:11:05,962
- I don't see what we have to lose.
- Sir, all due respect, everything.
189
00:11:06,098 --> 00:11:07,963
The upper hand,
the element of surprise...
190
00:11:08,067 --> 00:11:11,002
General, we forfeited all that
with the cyber attack.
191
00:11:11,103 --> 00:11:13,333
Now we're being pulled
into Russia's game.
192
00:11:13,773 --> 00:11:15,832
Escalating the conflict
is our only choice.
193
00:11:15,941 --> 00:11:18,171
Unless we can get the allies
to circle the wagons,
194
00:11:18,277 --> 00:11:24,580
it's... it's going to take
the world's commitment to war
195
00:11:24,684 --> 00:11:26,174
in order to actually stop the war.
196
00:11:26,285 --> 00:11:28,344
It has to happen in the next 24 hours.
197
00:11:28,621 --> 00:11:32,022
We cannot give Russia time
to one-up our show of force
198
00:11:32,124 --> 00:11:33,648
should we decide to go there.
199
00:11:33,793 --> 00:11:37,695
Agreed. Let's get on the line
with President Bozek.
200
00:11:37,797 --> 00:11:40,925
We can't do this alone.
We need to get Ukraine on board.
201
00:11:41,967 --> 00:11:45,164
I appreciate you taking me
into your confidence, Mr President.
202
00:11:45,271 --> 00:11:46,738
Tell me, what is your plan?
203
00:11:46,839 --> 00:11:52,300
We intend to draw a line in the sand,
and that line is the Ukrainian border.
204
00:11:52,411 --> 00:11:55,938
In addition to the lethal aid
we've already provided,
205
00:11:56,048 --> 00:11:58,949
we plan to send American advisors
to the east
206
00:11:59,051 --> 00:12:01,884
and enforce a no-fly zone
over Ukrainian airspace.
207
00:12:01,987 --> 00:12:06,321
You don't know how long I've waited
to hear these words of support from you.
208
00:12:06,592 --> 00:12:11,291
- Tell me, what can I do in return?
- I'm... I'm glad you asked, Mikhail.
209
00:12:11,597 --> 00:12:14,122
All of this will depend
on the support of our allies,
210
00:12:14,266 --> 00:12:17,724
which I have to rally
in the next 24 hours.
211
00:12:17,837 --> 00:12:22,035
It won't be easy, so the more evidence
that we have to convince them
212
00:12:22,174 --> 00:12:26,042
that Ostrov was behind the cyber attack
on your plane and ours, the better.
213
00:12:26,178 --> 00:12:28,874
I'll need any information that you have.
214
00:12:29,014 --> 00:12:31,380
That is easily provided,
Madam Secretary.
215
00:12:32,585 --> 00:12:35,748
And I will need you at my side
when I make the address at the UN.
216
00:12:35,855 --> 00:12:38,824
I will make preparations
to fly to New York right away.
217
00:12:39,091 --> 00:12:41,184
Thank you.
218
00:12:44,597 --> 00:12:47,862
Better get your staff to work
on the speech of your life.
219
00:12:54,006 --> 00:12:55,837
The objective is simple.
220
00:12:55,941 --> 00:12:59,672
Convince the entire world,
particularly our allies,
221
00:12:59,812 --> 00:13:05,341
that we are justified and willing to go
to war to contain Russian aggression.
222
00:13:05,618 --> 00:13:07,711
So your basic St Crispin's Day speech.
223
00:13:07,853 --> 00:13:10,947
Yes, hopefully
without having to go into battle.
224
00:13:11,056 --> 00:13:15,186
Once we have the authority,
the idea is we won't have to enforce it.
225
00:13:15,294 --> 00:13:18,092
- That's a big risk.
- We're aware.
226
00:13:18,197 --> 00:13:21,860
How much of the classified stuff
do you want me to use?
227
00:13:21,967 --> 00:13:26,768
Outside of sources and methods,
the president has authorized all of it.
228
00:13:26,872 --> 00:13:28,169
All of it all of it?
229
00:13:28,274 --> 00:13:31,710
We're giving up George Lasko as the guy
who hacked Air Force One?
230
00:13:31,844 --> 00:13:34,779
His connection to Russia?
The attack on President Bozek's plane?
231
00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:36,040
The polonium assassination?
232
00:13:36,182 --> 00:13:38,776
That pretty much covers
what I mean by "all of it."
233
00:13:38,884 --> 00:13:41,011
If we are showing our entire hand,
234
00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:43,247
it means the end
of any kind of negotiation.
235
00:13:43,355 --> 00:13:45,186
That's why this speech has to work.
236
00:13:46,759 --> 00:13:48,852
Hi. Welcome to Smokin' Al's.
237
00:13:55,734 --> 00:13:58,703
- I only have ten minutes.
- That's all I need.
238
00:13:58,804 --> 00:14:01,671
I have to admit, I never expected you
to be in a place like this.
239
00:14:01,774 --> 00:14:03,105
Well, that's why we're here.
240
00:14:03,209 --> 00:14:05,234
Does your wife know
that you eat like that?
241
00:14:05,511 --> 00:14:08,844
Of course not.
What can I do for you, Henry?
242
00:14:10,549 --> 00:14:13,040
I need to bring you some intelligence
that I've uncovered.
243
00:14:13,185 --> 00:14:16,052
I've taken it as far as I can with DIA,
but it stalled.
244
00:14:16,889 --> 00:14:18,823
I assume you talked to Jane Fellows
about this?
245
00:14:18,924 --> 00:14:21,586
She essentially terminated
my assignment,
246
00:14:21,694 --> 00:14:22,922
but you're my original recruiter.
247
00:14:23,028 --> 00:14:24,586
That's where it ends.
248
00:14:24,730 --> 00:14:29,190
Russell, my asset managed to lift
Russia's entire playbook
249
00:14:29,301 --> 00:14:31,599
for the invasion of Ukraine.
250
00:14:31,871 --> 00:14:34,897
They spell out
every scenario imaginable,
251
00:14:35,007 --> 00:14:37,532
including a number of ways
to manage the US reaction.
252
00:14:37,643 --> 00:14:41,773
Yet nowhere is this exhaustive document
253
00:14:41,881 --> 00:14:44,850
is there any mention
of hacking Air Force One.
254
00:14:45,851 --> 00:14:47,682
Why are you telling me this now
255
00:14:47,786 --> 00:14:51,847
when we are right in the middle of a
military campaign against Maria Ostrov?
256
00:14:51,957 --> 00:14:54,323
- Before the Challenger exploded...
- The space shuttle?
257
00:14:54,793 --> 00:14:58,991
Low-level engineers discovered
serious design flaws with the shuttle,
258
00:14:59,098 --> 00:15:01,157
particularly related to the O-rings,
259
00:15:01,267 --> 00:15:04,634
which they knew could not withstand
extreme changes in temperature.
260
00:15:04,770 --> 00:15:07,830
They kept pushing the information
upstairs, but it stalled.
261
00:15:07,940 --> 00:15:09,635
- Or 9/11...
- Here we go.
262
00:15:09,742 --> 00:15:12,074
The CIA and FBI
may have had enough foreknowledge
263
00:15:12,344 --> 00:15:14,938
of Al-Qaeda's plan to stop the attacks,
264
00:15:15,047 --> 00:15:17,880
but because of
bureaucratic intransigence
265
00:15:17,983 --> 00:15:19,814
they never even spoke to one another.
266
00:15:19,919 --> 00:15:21,853
So, what, so in this parable,
I'm the lackey,
267
00:15:21,954 --> 00:15:23,922
who waves you off
and says it's above my pay grade?
268
00:15:24,023 --> 00:15:27,322
No, that was Jane Fellows. You never got
the information in the first place.
269
00:15:27,593 --> 00:15:31,962
- You have the power to stop this.
- Stop what? We've already engaged.
270
00:15:34,300 --> 00:15:35,995
You mean the cyber attack
on the power grid?
271
00:15:36,302 --> 00:15:37,894
The entire intelligence community
272
00:15:38,003 --> 00:15:39,834
believes Russia
was behind Air Force One.
273
00:15:39,972 --> 00:15:41,906
So even if they didn't do it,
they did it.
274
00:15:42,007 --> 00:15:44,032
- Understand?
- There you go.
275
00:15:44,610 --> 00:15:46,271
And you're willing to go to war
over that?
276
00:15:46,378 --> 00:15:50,178
We are trying our damnedest to stop
a war by creating a united front.
277
00:15:50,316 --> 00:15:52,113
Do you get that?
278
00:15:53,252 --> 00:15:56,710
If you tell your wife any of this
"Russia didn't do it" nonsense,
279
00:15:56,822 --> 00:15:59,757
based on classified intel from DIA,
280
00:15:59,858 --> 00:16:04,192
you'll be thrown in prison for the rest
of your mortal days, both of you.
281
00:16:04,663 --> 00:16:06,187
Understood?
282
00:16:06,298 --> 00:16:09,131
Just keep your head down
and your mouth shut.
283
00:16:12,972 --> 00:16:15,964
For God's sake,
just do what we tell you to do.
284
00:16:26,952 --> 00:16:29,887
Well, whoever she is,
I hope she fed you.
285
00:16:30,022 --> 00:16:32,252
We finished off the kung pao chicken.
286
00:16:32,358 --> 00:16:34,918
She was an endless seminar
on the Sino-Soviet split
287
00:16:35,027 --> 00:16:37,621
and its effect
on the end of the Cold War,
288
00:16:37,730 --> 00:16:40,631
which is ironic
given the day's headlines.
289
00:16:40,733 --> 00:16:43,998
Might be a spring roll or two left.
You could have that.
290
00:16:46,772 --> 00:16:49,639
- We have to talk.
- No, we really don't.
291
00:16:49,742 --> 00:16:52,575
I understand you're scheduled
to speak at the UN tomorrow.
292
00:16:52,711 --> 00:16:53,700
That's right.
293
00:16:53,879 --> 00:16:56,939
What if I knew something that would
change the way that you approach this?
294
00:16:57,049 --> 00:16:59,517
Henry, I don't make the decisions
on how to approach this.
295
00:16:59,651 --> 00:17:02,848
You're gonna reveal Russia's involvement
in the Air Force One hack
296
00:17:02,988 --> 00:17:05,183
in hopes of getting the allies
to fall into place.
297
00:17:05,324 --> 00:17:08,885
And if you do your job well,
which you have a track record of doing,
298
00:17:08,994 --> 00:17:10,985
then the world will be poised
to go to war
299
00:17:11,230 --> 00:17:16,862
with a country that is
just unstable enough to take the bait.
300
00:17:16,969 --> 00:17:21,133
If you're wrong, do you really wanna be
on the side of that?
301
00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:24,073
Obviously I wouldn't make this speech
if I thought I were wrong.
302
00:17:24,176 --> 00:17:29,204
At what point would you be willing to
violate this cone of silence between us?
303
00:17:30,716 --> 00:17:33,276
What would it take? Would millions
of lives have to be at stake?
304
00:17:33,552 --> 00:17:35,918
- Because that's where we are.
- You're scaring me, Henry.
305
00:17:36,055 --> 00:17:38,046
Good, because this is scary.
306
00:17:40,726 --> 00:17:42,990
I'm willing to roll the dice
on going to prison.
307
00:17:43,095 --> 00:17:47,794
But what I'm not willing to do is live
with what might happen if we don't talk.
308
00:17:51,136 --> 00:17:54,196
We know things that can help each other.
309
00:17:54,306 --> 00:17:56,103
That's not the point.
310
00:17:56,909 --> 00:17:58,536
Actually, that is the point...
311
00:17:58,644 --> 00:18:00,703
I don't think the Russians
hacked Air Force One.
312
00:18:04,049 --> 00:18:07,678
Look, we have incontrovertible proof.
313
00:18:07,786 --> 00:18:09,117
- Do you?
- On multiple fronts.
314
00:18:09,221 --> 00:18:12,088
Then explain this to me.
If Russia hacked Air Force One,
315
00:18:12,224 --> 00:18:14,590
then they have
the most advanced cyber capabilities
316
00:18:14,893 --> 00:18:16,554
of any country on the planet.
317
00:18:16,695 --> 00:18:18,492
And what is their response
318
00:18:18,597 --> 00:18:21,259
to a counter-cyber attack
by the United States?
319
00:18:23,102 --> 00:18:24,763
They shut off the gas.
320
00:18:31,110 --> 00:18:33,010
You have more to go on than speculation?
321
00:18:33,112 --> 00:18:35,580
I mean, if we're gonna go all the way
with this...
322
00:18:39,118 --> 00:18:43,646
I have an asset
who works for a top advisor to Ostrov.
323
00:18:48,327 --> 00:18:51,819
If Russia didn't do this,
if they're not behind it, then who?
324
00:18:52,698 --> 00:18:54,029
I don't know. Does it really matter?
325
00:18:54,133 --> 00:18:58,797
I have to present some plausible theory
to get them off of this path...
326
00:18:58,937 --> 00:19:00,802
I haven't gotten that far.
327
00:19:00,939 --> 00:19:04,067
But, babe, I know this is a leap...
328
00:19:05,110 --> 00:19:08,136
and I know
there's a chance that I'm wrong.
329
00:19:10,482 --> 00:19:12,848
But what if I'm not?
330
00:19:29,635 --> 00:19:32,263
I need you guys to streamline
331
00:19:32,504 --> 00:19:35,632
whatever we have that directly links
Lasko with the Russians.
332
00:19:35,774 --> 00:19:36,934
Primarily it's the money.
333
00:19:37,042 --> 00:19:41,138
An email on his computer from
a Russian bank, one associated with GRU,
334
00:19:41,313 --> 00:19:44,544
informing him of a wire transfer
to his Cayman Islands bank account.
335
00:19:44,683 --> 00:19:49,086
OK, it says here the NSA was monitoring
this bank for criminal activity.
336
00:19:49,188 --> 00:19:52,715
So where's the record
of a transfer from Russia?
337
00:19:52,991 --> 00:19:56,188
Uh... NSA has no corresponding record
of a wire transfer.
338
00:19:56,328 --> 00:19:57,886
But they're not perfect. It's...
339
00:19:58,197 --> 00:20:00,529
You know, often these shady banks
have multiple...
340
00:20:00,666 --> 00:20:04,158
If NSA has no record of a wire transfer,
341
00:20:04,269 --> 00:20:06,601
then how do we know
that the email is legitimate?
342
00:20:06,705 --> 00:20:08,935
We traced its IP address
back to Moscow servers.
343
00:20:09,074 --> 00:20:12,043
IP addresses can be faked
to look like they come from anywhere.
344
00:20:12,177 --> 00:20:13,940
Sure, but it's a convergence
of evidence.
345
00:20:14,079 --> 00:20:18,539
Ma'am, the odds of all this
being counterfeit are very slim.
346
00:20:18,684 --> 00:20:20,618
It's like he says,
a convergence of evidence.
347
00:20:20,752 --> 00:20:25,280
I heard him, and I'm gonna ask you both
to stop saying that.
348
00:20:25,390 --> 00:20:27,358
Because "convergence of evidence"
349
00:20:27,626 --> 00:20:32,620
is beginning to sound eerily like
the new "weapons of mass destruction."
350
00:20:34,299 --> 00:20:36,324
So, Oliver, I'm gonna ask you again.
351
00:20:36,802 --> 00:20:40,738
On the eve
of my telling the entire world
352
00:20:41,006 --> 00:20:45,170
that Russia is behind the greatest
cyber attack in human history,
353
00:20:45,277 --> 00:20:48,713
prompting actions
which could lead us all
354
00:20:48,814 --> 00:20:53,251
into the greatest world conflict
in human history,
355
00:20:53,352 --> 00:20:58,949
there's a chance that all the evidence
we have here is fake?
356
00:21:00,225 --> 00:21:03,126
Yes, ma'am, there is a chance.
357
00:21:20,078 --> 00:21:23,104
It's a little long.
I could definitely take some trims.
358
00:21:23,248 --> 00:21:26,877
I might've used JFK too many times.
359
00:21:26,985 --> 00:21:28,850
But I think it'll get the point across.
360
00:21:28,954 --> 00:21:30,683
Madam Secretary,
Russell Jackson's office
361
00:21:30,989 --> 00:21:33,287
is demanding to see
a draft of the speech.
362
00:21:33,592 --> 00:21:35,856
He wants to vet it in time for changes.
363
00:21:35,961 --> 00:21:36,985
I'm sure he does.
364
00:21:37,296 --> 00:21:41,699
And you are scheduled to leave
from the White House lawn in two hours.
365
00:21:41,833 --> 00:21:45,030
Four major networks cleared time
for a breaking news segment.
366
00:21:48,774 --> 00:21:53,905
I'm gonna... take
this little window of time.
367
00:21:54,012 --> 00:21:56,071
I'm just gonna say this.
368
00:21:58,350 --> 00:21:59,282
What if we're wrong?
369
00:22:02,754 --> 00:22:05,120
- About what?
- Oh, I don't know.
370
00:22:05,290 --> 00:22:06,951
Everything. All of it.
371
00:22:07,092 --> 00:22:11,791
What if Russia wasn't behind
the Air Force One hack?
372
00:22:12,864 --> 00:22:15,128
Isn't it a little late in the game
for that?
373
00:22:15,267 --> 00:22:18,998
Oh, no. I think it's exactly
the right point in the game.
374
00:22:23,342 --> 00:22:29,338
It's fair to say
that Russia is not an utter certainty,
375
00:22:29,614 --> 00:22:31,377
but nothing points to another actor.
376
00:22:31,683 --> 00:22:35,619
And given that, I think,
clearly the White House thinks,
377
00:22:35,721 --> 00:22:38,087
that we should proceed
with what we know.
378
00:22:38,190 --> 00:22:43,651
How many messes
have we gotten ourselves into
379
00:22:43,929 --> 00:22:46,830
with what we were almost sure we knew?
380
00:22:47,065 --> 00:22:50,831
I'm just asking
for a quick, exhaustive review.
381
00:22:50,936 --> 00:22:55,737
Let's just take a few minutes
and consider the other possibilities.
382
00:22:55,874 --> 00:22:58,741
OK, so let's backtrack.
383
00:22:58,844 --> 00:23:02,871
We're reasonably sure that George Lasko
was behind the hack of Air Force One.
384
00:23:03,014 --> 00:23:07,041
He had previous connections to Russia
and China, North Korea and Iran.
385
00:23:07,152 --> 00:23:10,349
And now he's dead
by way of polonium poisoning.
386
00:23:10,622 --> 00:23:12,180
I think we can rule out Iran.
387
00:23:12,290 --> 00:23:15,953
Our nuclear agreement closely monitors
their radioactive material.
388
00:23:16,228 --> 00:23:17,252
We can rule out North Korea.
389
00:23:17,362 --> 00:23:20,297
Their nuclear capabilities
are not sophisticated enough
390
00:23:20,565 --> 00:23:21,691
to synthesize polonium.
391
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:23,859
That leaves China,
which makes some sense.
392
00:23:23,969 --> 00:23:25,766
How is that?
393
00:23:25,904 --> 00:23:28,873
With Russia and the US locked
in a slowly escalating conflict...
394
00:23:29,007 --> 00:23:30,338
Or quickly escalating.
395
00:23:30,575 --> 00:23:34,102
...China is free to shore up control
over Southeast Asia.
396
00:23:34,246 --> 00:23:37,340
It's a long shot,
but it might be worth looking into.
397
00:23:37,582 --> 00:23:39,607
Even though it would ruin my speech.
398
00:23:39,751 --> 00:23:42,584
You're saying China framed Russia
for the Air Force One hack?
399
00:23:42,721 --> 00:23:44,848
I'm not saying. I'm just asking.
400
00:23:44,956 --> 00:23:48,016
Mr Jackson's office
is again asking for your speech.
401
00:23:48,126 --> 00:23:52,324
This time in all caps.
He is officially shouting.
402
00:23:52,597 --> 00:23:56,328
Right. Tell him we're putting
the finishing touches on the speech.
403
00:23:56,601 --> 00:24:02,301
Yes, ma'am. If you'll excuse me,
I obfuscate more effectively by phone.
404
00:24:02,541 --> 00:24:06,500
You will be the first to know.
OK. Goodbye.
405
00:24:07,846 --> 00:24:09,074
I hate to bother you...
406
00:24:10,549 --> 00:24:13,109
Yes, I read your first draft.
407
00:24:13,919 --> 00:24:15,352
You're really gonna make me ask?
408
00:24:17,289 --> 00:24:20,087
I think it's the finest piece of writing
I've ever seen from you.
409
00:24:20,192 --> 00:24:21,181
Really?
410
00:24:21,293 --> 00:24:24,558
No, I'm shining you on
because I hate to disappoint.
411
00:24:27,599 --> 00:24:30,625
- It is good, isn't it?
- It's brilliant.
412
00:24:34,606 --> 00:24:36,005
She's never gonna use it, is she?
413
00:24:36,107 --> 00:24:41,841
Matt, this speech was intended
to rally the nations of the world
414
00:24:41,947 --> 00:24:45,383
into a potential war with Russia.
415
00:24:45,617 --> 00:24:47,778
If the secretary
never reads it out loud,
416
00:24:48,086 --> 00:24:51,681
that would mean the best of all
possible outcomes had been achieved.
417
00:24:51,823 --> 00:24:54,621
- Don't you agree?
- Of course.
418
00:24:57,963 --> 00:25:01,626
Minister Chen, thank you for coming in
on such short notice.
419
00:25:01,766 --> 00:25:04,257
I was surprised
by the urgent nature of the request.
420
00:25:04,536 --> 00:25:07,505
I'm aware that you are scheduled
to appear before the UN in a few hours.
421
00:25:07,606 --> 00:25:09,506
Please, have a seat.
422
00:25:09,608 --> 00:25:13,044
Word is that you intend to address
the recent events in Russia.
423
00:25:13,144 --> 00:25:16,136
Minister Chen,
you recall a couple of months ago
424
00:25:16,248 --> 00:25:19,513
when the communications system
on Air Force One was shut down?
425
00:25:19,618 --> 00:25:21,518
The result of solar flares, was it not?
426
00:25:21,620 --> 00:25:25,989
That was our best working theory
at the time, yes.
427
00:25:26,091 --> 00:25:30,323
But we have reason to believe that
there may be other factors involved.
428
00:25:30,595 --> 00:25:33,189
You mean someone hacked into the system?
429
00:25:33,298 --> 00:25:35,698
Possibly.
430
00:25:36,001 --> 00:25:39,869
I wanted to ask you
about information that you might have
431
00:25:40,171 --> 00:25:46,701
about other actors who might have had
reason to engage in such aggression.
432
00:25:47,946 --> 00:25:51,109
One of the things I've always valued
about you, Madam Secretary,
433
00:25:51,216 --> 00:25:53,150
is that you tend to speak plainly.
434
00:25:53,251 --> 00:25:56,778
- I urge you to do so now.
- Did you guys do it?
435
00:25:57,355 --> 00:26:01,985
Did China hire George Lasko, aka Dash,
to hack Air Force One?
436
00:26:02,093 --> 00:26:03,321
You can't be serious.
437
00:26:03,595 --> 00:26:06,655
I assure you,
I have never been more serious.
438
00:26:07,866 --> 00:26:09,697
And why would we do that?
439
00:26:09,801 --> 00:26:15,262
Engaging the US and Russia
in a costly military conflict
440
00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:19,838
would free China up
to pursue a number of foreign interests.
441
00:26:20,879 --> 00:26:23,507
In the year 2000,
China owned only six per cent
442
00:26:23,648 --> 00:26:29,314
of the United States' foreign debt.
Now we own over 21 per cent.
443
00:26:29,621 --> 00:26:32,249
We have over $1 trillion
in US securities
444
00:26:32,357 --> 00:26:34,985
and hundreds of billions
in Russian securities.
445
00:26:35,093 --> 00:26:39,052
If we pitted the two of you
against each other in a nuclear war,
446
00:26:39,164 --> 00:26:41,724
what good would that do
our investment portfolio?
447
00:26:41,833 --> 00:26:44,996
So you had nothing to do
with Air Force One?
448
00:26:46,705 --> 00:26:50,004
China is playing a long game,
Madam Secretary.
449
00:26:51,109 --> 00:26:55,705
When we come for you, it won't be
with missiles and cyber attacks.
450
00:26:56,581 --> 00:26:57,707
We'll repossess you.
451
00:26:59,517 --> 00:27:01,678
- I apologize, Madam Secretary.
- Thank you, Blake.
452
00:27:01,987 --> 00:27:04,581
Grilling Oliver Shaw
about the Air Force One hack
453
00:27:04,689 --> 00:27:06,714
in front of the director
of National Intelligence?
454
00:27:06,891 --> 00:27:08,290
I wouldn't call it a grilling.
455
00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:11,188
Now I'm hearing about some emergency
meeting with Minister Chen
456
00:27:11,296 --> 00:27:12,593
about God knows what.
457
00:27:12,697 --> 00:27:14,722
Maybe we got different playbooks,
458
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:18,094
but when appealing to the world
to go to war with Russia,
459
00:27:18,203 --> 00:27:20,296
I think it's important
to get the facts straight.
460
00:27:20,572 --> 00:27:23,302
Your facts are about as straight
as they're gonna get.
461
00:27:23,575 --> 00:27:25,600
I hope to hell you're not talking
to Henry about this.
462
00:27:25,710 --> 00:27:27,610
What does Henry have to do
with anything?
463
00:27:27,712 --> 00:27:30,010
He came to me,
babbling about some half-cocked theory.
464
00:27:30,115 --> 00:27:33,243
Well, that's between you and Henry.
465
00:27:33,551 --> 00:27:35,712
I have serious questions.
466
00:27:35,887 --> 00:27:37,878
And I am telling you that you don't.
467
00:27:38,023 --> 00:27:40,218
Marine One is out there
on the lawn right now,
468
00:27:40,358 --> 00:27:43,657
Air Force One is ready at Andrews,
ready to take you to the UN
469
00:27:43,762 --> 00:27:47,789
to make a speech
you insisted on giving not 24 hours ago.
470
00:27:47,899 --> 00:27:51,198
If I make this speech and we're wrong,
471
00:27:51,636 --> 00:27:55,231
it could destroy
the US's credibility for decades.
472
00:27:56,775 --> 00:28:01,610
If I miss this speech, Russell,
it's barely a footnote in history.
473
00:28:03,948 --> 00:28:09,511
I am telling you to get on Marine One.
The president's waiting.
474
00:28:23,935 --> 00:28:26,597
Aren't you supposed to be
at the UN right now?
475
00:28:27,739 --> 00:28:30,037
Henry, you'd better be right about this.
476
00:29:05,643 --> 00:29:08,669
Jeffrey, when I say the secretary
won't be addressing this matter
477
00:29:08,780 --> 00:29:11,613
in the press today,
that is exactly what I mean by that.
478
00:29:11,783 --> 00:29:15,583
Obviously she had a reason
for canceling her appearance at the UN.
479
00:29:15,687 --> 00:29:18,281
Look, I'm not saying it's related
to national security, you are,
480
00:29:18,556 --> 00:29:22,686
and if you print it, you better
have your lawyer on speed dial.
481
00:29:22,794 --> 00:29:26,696
- Wow. You're getting good at that.
- I'm getting a lot of practice today.
482
00:29:26,798 --> 00:29:29,699
Look, if we just release a statement,
the press will calm down.
483
00:29:29,801 --> 00:29:33,168
Anything we feed 'em
is gonna make 'em hungrier.
484
00:29:33,304 --> 00:29:36,205
Let's wait
until we have something to say.
485
00:29:36,307 --> 00:29:38,605
Like, for example, I've been fired.
486
00:29:38,710 --> 00:29:41,736
Mr Jackson's office
has been eerily quiet.
487
00:29:41,846 --> 00:29:44,610
Yes, and it's speaking volumes.
488
00:29:44,716 --> 00:29:46,877
What's it saying exactly?
489
00:29:47,218 --> 00:29:52,588
The White House doesn't wanna
look unstable in the middle of a crisis.
490
00:29:52,690 --> 00:29:54,248
They'll deal with me later.
491
00:29:54,692 --> 00:29:58,822
...announcing our renewed partnership
with the people of Ukraine.
492
00:29:59,564 --> 00:30:03,056
Today we are drawing a line in the sand.
493
00:30:03,168 --> 00:30:07,036
Because when it comes to the cause
of freedom, we are all Ukrainians.
494
00:30:07,872 --> 00:30:09,533
My speech was so much better.
495
00:30:11,209 --> 00:30:14,940
Well, in order to facilitate
avoiding the press,
496
00:30:15,046 --> 00:30:18,106
I'm officially
making myself unavailable.
497
00:30:18,216 --> 00:30:20,116
I have a football game to get to.
498
00:30:20,251 --> 00:30:23,243
And when I get back,
let's figure out what I'm going to say
499
00:30:23,388 --> 00:30:26,585
about not having anything to say
to the UN.
500
00:30:31,129 --> 00:30:33,222
What?
501
00:30:34,933 --> 00:30:36,867
I don't know.
502
00:30:37,635 --> 00:30:39,603
It's kind of bizarre.
503
00:30:39,704 --> 00:30:41,797
Then it ought to feel right at home.
504
00:30:43,842 --> 00:30:45,901
What?
505
00:30:46,945 --> 00:30:50,745
When Bozek came to DC a month ago,
506
00:30:50,949 --> 00:30:54,248
he was on his knees
begging for NATO membership.
507
00:30:54,352 --> 00:30:58,914
Now look at him, at the White House,
with the president of the United States
508
00:30:59,190 --> 00:31:01,784
doing everything
but making a blood pact?
509
00:31:03,895 --> 00:31:05,954
He's getting more than he wanted.
510
00:31:07,799 --> 00:31:09,892
He is, isn't he?
511
00:31:11,936 --> 00:31:13,904
I'm saying it's weird.
512
00:31:14,939 --> 00:31:17,066
What are you saying?
513
00:31:17,208 --> 00:31:20,234
The man had to jump
out of his own plane.
514
00:31:20,345 --> 00:31:23,314
- That's insane, right?
- Right.
515
00:31:23,948 --> 00:31:26,348
Pull the staff together.
516
00:31:26,618 --> 00:31:30,748
Find out everything you can
about the incident on Bozek's plane.
517
00:31:30,855 --> 00:31:33,016
Quietly.
518
00:31:33,124 --> 00:31:36,025
And if word gets out,
I'll swear you all went rogue.
519
00:31:36,127 --> 00:31:38,061
Yes, ma'am.
520
00:31:43,167 --> 00:31:45,829
Come on, Panthers! Let's go!
Hold 'em! You got this!
521
00:31:45,970 --> 00:31:48,370
Tackle by number 46,
Sean Dinsmore.
522
00:31:48,673 --> 00:31:51,301
I don't know what I was worried about.
I mean, he's doing great.
523
00:31:51,609 --> 00:31:54,703
- He's missed every tackle.
- That's what I'm talking about.
524
00:31:54,812 --> 00:31:55,972
He's doing the bare minimum.
525
00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:58,708
Babe, I think he's playing
at the top of his game.
526
00:32:00,952 --> 00:32:05,980
Well, even better. The big guys
just brushing by him. Works for me.
527
00:32:07,625 --> 00:32:14,292
So is it a totally crazy idea that the
Ukrainians hacked into Air Force One,
528
00:32:14,599 --> 00:32:15,623
pinned it on the Russians
529
00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:19,531
and then orchestrated their own
plane crash to cover their tracks?
530
00:32:19,671 --> 00:32:20,695
Why?
531
00:32:20,838 --> 00:32:24,899
Because I need to know just how crazy
it is before I go down this road.
532
00:32:25,009 --> 00:32:27,102
No, I mean why would they do that?
533
00:32:28,012 --> 00:32:30,105
How do you get
the president of the United States
534
00:32:30,214 --> 00:32:31,806
to commit to taking on Russia?
535
00:32:32,016 --> 00:32:35,144
Make him think
that he was attacked by them.
536
00:32:36,254 --> 00:32:39,781
Then he'll never allow for
any kind of aggression against Ukraine.
537
00:32:39,891 --> 00:32:40,983
That's a huge swing.
538
00:32:42,393 --> 00:32:44,827
Desperate times, desperate measures.
539
00:32:46,097 --> 00:32:49,931
So, is it nuts? Is it possible?
540
00:32:50,034 --> 00:32:54,630
How long did it take the passengers
to jump after the plane got in trouble?
541
00:32:54,739 --> 00:32:58,231
According to the black box...
48 seconds.
542
00:32:58,343 --> 00:33:00,334
Were there any fatalities?
543
00:33:01,813 --> 00:33:03,838
And how banged up were they?
544
00:33:03,982 --> 00:33:07,782
The report gave no indication
that any of the passengers were injured.
545
00:33:07,885 --> 00:33:09,910
Well, that's interesting.
546
00:33:10,021 --> 00:33:11,818
When I was doing parachute training,
547
00:33:11,923 --> 00:33:14,858
everybody always had something
on their first couple of jumps.
548
00:33:14,993 --> 00:33:17,120
Cuts, bruises, sprains,
even a couple of fractures.
549
00:33:17,228 --> 00:33:19,719
And this was a bunch of marines
in top physical condition
550
00:33:20,031 --> 00:33:21,089
jumping out of a stable plane,
551
00:33:21,199 --> 00:33:24,635
not a bunch of diplomats
bailing from a nose dive.
552
00:33:30,008 --> 00:33:31,805
Nice hit, Jase!
553
00:33:31,909 --> 00:33:36,744
52, McCord, first down.
554
00:33:36,881 --> 00:33:39,281
Great play, Panthers!
555
00:33:39,584 --> 00:33:41,245
You stopped
a potential touchdown drive.
556
00:33:46,190 --> 00:33:47,782
- Hi.
- What do you want?
557
00:33:47,892 --> 00:33:53,057
- I need your help.
- I'll ask you again. What do you want?
558
00:33:54,365 --> 00:33:56,993
You went to Ukraine
to meet with Bozek and his staff
559
00:33:57,101 --> 00:33:59,729
directly after the incident
with their plane, right?
560
00:33:59,837 --> 00:34:01,270
The day after, yes.
561
00:34:01,739 --> 00:34:04,003
What kind of physical shape
were they in?
562
00:34:05,009 --> 00:34:05,998
Fine.
563
00:34:07,578 --> 00:34:10,706
Cuts, sprains, bruises?
Any kind of injuries?
564
00:34:10,848 --> 00:34:13,715
Bozek had a small laceration
on the side of his face,
565
00:34:13,851 --> 00:34:17,878
otherwise not a mark on them
that I saw or that anyone mentioned.
566
00:34:18,022 --> 00:34:18,989
Huh.
567
00:34:19,090 --> 00:34:21,081
You're not doubting
that the crash happened?
568
00:34:21,359 --> 00:34:24,089
There's documentation.
They found the wreckage.
569
00:34:24,195 --> 00:34:26,026
- I'm not doubting that.
- Then what?
570
00:34:26,130 --> 00:34:30,123
You didn't come all the way over here
to ask me how they looked.
571
00:34:31,135 --> 00:34:33,763
Actually, I did. Thanks, Craig.
572
00:34:36,340 --> 00:34:39,969
I know you have
a wrathful grudge against me
573
00:34:40,111 --> 00:34:41,772
that you might well take to your grave
574
00:34:41,879 --> 00:34:45,542
and we are never going to see eye to eye
about what transpired,
575
00:34:45,650 --> 00:34:47,982
but I do know one thing about you.
576
00:34:48,086 --> 00:34:52,113
First and foremost you're a patriot.
I really do wish you well.
577
00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:06,696
Wow. You guys look like
you've been here all night.
578
00:35:06,804 --> 00:35:08,704
Well, because
they've been here all night.
579
00:35:08,806 --> 00:35:10,865
I was going for sarcasm.
580
00:35:10,975 --> 00:35:13,000
Oh, sorry. I've been here all night too.
581
00:35:13,111 --> 00:35:16,239
- So what have we got?
- Matt has a friend in Defense.
582
00:35:16,347 --> 00:35:19,043
- Matt has a friend?
- In the Defense Department.
583
00:35:19,150 --> 00:35:23,052
None of my jokes are landing.
Must be the sleep deprivation.
584
00:35:23,154 --> 00:35:27,682
So my friend in Defense
somehow got his hands on the manifest
585
00:35:27,792 --> 00:35:29,282
for that Ukrainian flight.
586
00:35:30,995 --> 00:35:33,122
- Both versions.
- Both?
587
00:35:33,531 --> 00:35:37,729
Two days before the flight, the entire
passenger roster list changed.
588
00:35:37,835 --> 00:35:39,996
The original list
was just his usual inner sanctum.
589
00:35:40,171 --> 00:35:41,832
But suddenly the guest list changed
590
00:35:41,939 --> 00:35:44,339
to include seemingly random
members of his staff.
591
00:35:44,609 --> 00:35:47,077
Seemingly? What's the connective tissue?
592
00:35:47,178 --> 00:35:49,669
Everyone on board the plane,
including Bozek,
593
00:35:49,780 --> 00:35:51,680
was a former officer
in the Ukrainian army,
594
00:35:51,816 --> 00:35:55,616
all with hundreds of hours
of paratroop training and experience.
595
00:35:58,022 --> 00:35:59,683
Wow.
596
00:35:59,790 --> 00:36:02,088
- What are the odds?
- There are no odds.
597
00:36:03,661 --> 00:36:05,253
Ma'am, we're just getting a report
598
00:36:05,530 --> 00:36:08,522
that a man has died in a Vietnamese
hospital of polonium poisoning.
599
00:36:08,633 --> 00:36:10,032
What?
600
00:36:10,134 --> 00:36:17,666
The alpha particle signature off his
body indicates that it's polonium-210.
601
00:36:17,808 --> 00:36:21,107
That's the same kind that was used
to kill George Lasko.
602
00:36:21,212 --> 00:36:22,770
Where was this man from?
603
00:36:23,781 --> 00:36:29,083
Ukraine, specifically an agent
with their Foreign Intelligence Service.
604
00:36:29,187 --> 00:36:32,281
A man named Sascha Marchuk.
605
00:36:32,557 --> 00:36:36,084
He spent two days trying to secure
a flight out of Cambodia
606
00:36:36,194 --> 00:36:39,857
but was denied because of his grave
and indeterminate illness.
607
00:36:39,964 --> 00:36:43,127
He finally staggered into a hospital
in Biên Hóa
608
00:36:43,234 --> 00:36:46,829
where he admitted that he was suffering
from polonium poisoning.
609
00:36:46,938 --> 00:36:48,906
By then it was too late.
610
00:36:49,006 --> 00:36:51,839
He died of liver failure
just a few hours ago.
611
00:36:51,943 --> 00:36:54,104
I don't understand. Who is he?
612
00:36:54,212 --> 00:36:59,115
He's the person who hired the hacker,
George Lasko,
613
00:36:59,217 --> 00:37:01,811
and then killed him to cover the tracks.
614
00:37:02,053 --> 00:37:06,888
But polonium is a tricky murder weapon
and he accidentally poisoned himself.
615
00:37:06,991 --> 00:37:10,722
You're saying the Ukrainians were behind
the cyber attack on Air Force One.
616
00:37:10,861 --> 00:37:12,692
What would they possibly have to gain?
617
00:37:12,797 --> 00:37:15,095
President Bozek was panicked
about Russian aggression
618
00:37:15,199 --> 00:37:18,532
and he knew Ukraine could never stand up
to them without international aid.
619
00:37:18,803 --> 00:37:21,101
So he decided to take matters
into his own hands.
620
00:37:21,205 --> 00:37:23,673
He sought out Lasko
and gave him countless resources
621
00:37:23,941 --> 00:37:26,569
to develop his malware
and hack Air Force One.
622
00:37:26,677 --> 00:37:30,636
He figured we'd blame Russia
and get pulled into the conflict.
623
00:37:30,748 --> 00:37:32,238
But when we didn't take the bait,
624
00:37:32,550 --> 00:37:34,609
he followed up
with an appeal to join NATO.
625
00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:39,156
His request was denied,
so he escalated the ruse.
626
00:37:39,257 --> 00:37:42,954
He uploaded fake financial records
onto Lasko's laptop,
627
00:37:43,094 --> 00:37:45,858
transactions pointing back
to Russian GRU.
628
00:37:45,963 --> 00:37:48,761
- And then he attacked his own plane?
- Yes, sir.
629
00:37:49,033 --> 00:37:52,764
He covered
for the lives of the passengers
630
00:37:52,870 --> 00:37:58,172
by replacing officials
with trained paratroopers.
631
00:37:59,143 --> 00:38:02,909
That was the final piece
of the puzzle. We just found it.
632
00:38:03,014 --> 00:38:04,948
It wasn't Russia.
633
00:38:06,217 --> 00:38:11,211
We were duped, Mr President.
It was Bozek all along.
634
00:38:20,264 --> 00:38:24,132
Mr President,
I could not be more at a loss.
635
00:38:24,268 --> 00:38:27,237
Mikhail, believe me when I tell you
636
00:38:27,571 --> 00:38:30,768
this will go much better for you
if you dispense with this approach.
637
00:38:37,982 --> 00:38:41,179
My parents and grandparents
suffered countless horrors
638
00:38:41,285 --> 00:38:43,685
at the hands of the Russians.
639
00:38:43,788 --> 00:38:46,313
I was not going to let Ukraine
be swallowed up
640
00:38:46,590 --> 00:38:48,182
by the Russian monster once again.
641
00:38:48,292 --> 00:38:51,261
I resolved to do everything in my power,
642
00:38:51,529 --> 00:38:54,930
from risking my life to risking yours,
Mr President,
643
00:38:55,032 --> 00:39:00,129
to preserve my country's independence.
I would do it again.
644
00:39:01,072 --> 00:39:07,136
Well, luckily for you, this scheme
of yours has put us all in the same box.
645
00:39:09,280 --> 00:39:13,944
If we reveal the deception, Russia
will hit you with everything it's got,
646
00:39:14,051 --> 00:39:16,519
killing millions of innocent people.
647
00:39:17,254 --> 00:39:21,190
And a wordless pulling-out of troops
makes us look weak,
648
00:39:21,292 --> 00:39:24,591
exposing you to the same outcome.
649
00:39:24,862 --> 00:39:29,299
So, for the time being,
we are maintaining our presence
650
00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:32,831
and enforcing our no-fly zone
over Ukrainian airspace.
651
00:39:34,305 --> 00:39:38,867
40 million Ukrainians don't deserve to
get slaughtered because of what you did.
652
00:39:41,779 --> 00:39:44,009
Thank you.
653
00:39:44,148 --> 00:39:47,117
And my people thank you
for your great mercy.
654
00:39:49,720 --> 00:39:51,620
Let's be clear.
655
00:39:51,722 --> 00:39:54,885
If you breathe one word of this
to anyone,
656
00:39:55,159 --> 00:39:58,060
we will expose you, capture you
657
00:39:58,329 --> 00:40:01,958
and throw you into the same dark hole
where we kept Noriega.
658
00:40:07,238 --> 00:40:10,332
Dude, he was coming across the line
like Beast Mode with a jet pack.
659
00:40:10,775 --> 00:40:11,799
You came out of nowhere.
660
00:40:11,909 --> 00:40:14,173
He was trying to shake you off,
but you wouldn't budge.
661
00:40:14,278 --> 00:40:16,712
Then he just tried to fling you
and he was down. Boom!
662
00:40:16,847 --> 00:40:19,247
I thought there was gonna be
nothing but a grease spot.
663
00:40:19,350 --> 00:40:20,908
The secretary of state.
664
00:40:21,018 --> 00:40:24,078
Oh, hey, Mom.
The, uh... The guys brought pizza.
665
00:40:24,355 --> 00:40:27,620
I know. It smells so good.
Don't let me interrupt.
666
00:40:27,725 --> 00:40:29,852
- Your son is one crazy-ass ball player.
- Dude!
667
00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:34,192
Yeah, I know.
And now he's out for the season.
668
00:40:34,298 --> 00:40:36,323
- It's so sad.
- She's not sad.
669
00:40:36,600 --> 00:40:40,366
Not the least bit sad.
But I'm glad you had a good game.
670
00:40:40,604 --> 00:40:42,595
Dude, you're totally coming back
next year.
671
00:40:42,706 --> 00:40:43,900
Oh, you know it, dude.
672
00:40:45,910 --> 00:40:50,108
Our son has a whole new group
of friends named Dude.
673
00:40:55,152 --> 00:40:58,553
They named him MVP of the game.
Giving him a trophy.
674
00:40:58,722 --> 00:41:02,158
Wow. And I don't have to worry about him
for a whole nother season.
675
00:41:02,259 --> 00:41:06,320
Oh, forget it. He's already told me
he's retiring his jersey.
676
00:41:06,597 --> 00:41:08,588
What?
677
00:41:08,699 --> 00:41:10,758
He's talking about fencing now.
678
00:41:12,303 --> 00:41:15,739
Swords. Fabulous.
679
00:41:20,244 --> 00:41:23,372
Thank you for talking to me about things
that could have sent us to prison.
680
00:41:23,614 --> 00:41:25,946
So you followed through on your theory?
681
00:41:26,083 --> 00:41:30,019
Oh, yes.
All the way to the president's office.
682
00:41:30,120 --> 00:41:32,953
World catastrophe avoided.
683
00:41:34,592 --> 00:41:37,390
Still have to find a way
to extricate the US from Ukraine
684
00:41:37,628 --> 00:41:39,653
without losing any more lives.
685
00:41:39,763 --> 00:41:44,200
Otherwise they'll just keep banging
the drum until someone fires a shot.
686
00:41:45,870 --> 00:41:48,100
My asset's gone dark.
687
00:41:48,205 --> 00:41:50,105
I don't know
if he got trapped in the blackout
688
00:41:50,207 --> 00:41:52,573
or he fled to Stockholm in time.
689
00:41:52,676 --> 00:41:55,645
- I have no idea.
- Henry, I'm sorry.
690
00:42:00,618 --> 00:42:03,086
Why is Jason quitting football?
Is it because of me?
691
00:42:03,354 --> 00:42:06,949
Because if he's really good at it, then
he should do it, even if it scares me.
692
00:42:07,091 --> 00:42:09,184
No, he's quitting because it scares him.
693
00:42:09,293 --> 00:42:11,523
Believe me,
he has nothing more to prove there.
694
00:42:16,166 --> 00:42:18,293
Hello, Mr President.
695
00:42:20,671 --> 00:42:23,640
Yes, sir. I'm on my way.
696
00:42:29,046 --> 00:42:30,877
You're a praying man, right?
697
00:42:31,015 --> 00:42:33,711
I'll get St Francis on it. He owes me.
698
00:42:39,990 --> 00:42:42,584
There's a development
over Ukrainian airspace.
699
00:42:42,693 --> 00:42:45,924
The Russians just violated
the no-fly zone half an hour ago.
700
00:42:46,196 --> 00:42:48,926
- What does Ostrov say?
- Nothing at all out of Moscow.
701
00:42:49,033 --> 00:42:51,934
- They're not picking up the phone.
- The message is clear.
702
00:42:52,036 --> 00:42:56,063
They're not recognizing our authority.
It's their show.
703
00:42:56,206 --> 00:42:57,673
Then we have to be equally clear.
704
00:42:57,775 --> 00:43:00,869
Our men are locked and loaded,
Mr President.
705
00:43:04,615 --> 00:43:06,640
Just waiting for the order.
706
00:43:12,690 --> 00:43:14,624
Permission to engage, sir?
707
00:43:21,699 --> 00:43:23,223
Permission granted.
