Madam Secretary

Lilly and Miles, carrots and broccoli.

How great is that?

- Brocky's yucky, daddy. - What?

No, no, no. Brocky's awesome.

Where are the hot dogs?

That is a great question, Lily.

Where is the...

Oh!

...the hot dog?

- Oh! - How did you make that happen?

Oh, no. What about you, Miles?

Is there something there?

When did your ears get so hungry?

- (laughing) - How'd you do that?

Come on. Hey...

Right.

Let's eat. Let's eat.

- What do we have to do first? - Prayer.

Yes.

Come on. Who's gonna say the blessing?

- I will! - Okay, let's go.

Father, in the name of Jesus,

we pray for this... food. (laughs)

- Amen. - Amen. Amen.

Amen, let's eat.

Amen, let's eat!

What about your old CIA friend

you mentioned last week?

I believe we're calling her Jane.

Nothing's changed.

There's a negotiation

to bring her into custody that's ongoing, so...

Oh, you want to know how I feel about it.

Mmm. Only six sessions in,

I'm already a broken record... and a cliché.

Shouldn't we be talking about my PTSD triggers?

Mostly, overwhelming loss.

I think I mentioned

that we started at the Company the same week.

Over 20 years ago.

She's family.

Or was.

I just can't believe I missed it.

You mean her betrayal?

My job is to understand people.

Judge what they're capable of.

My old job.

Part of it.

So you let yourself down?

And my country.

Have you thought about what you would say to Jane

if you had the chance?

Oh, yes.

We have had many imaginary conversations

that go on for hours.

Mostly about... why.

Why she did it.

"It" being classified.

Highly.

She didn't just betray me and her country.

She hurt...

one of our friends.

Horribly.

That-that's the...

the part that I just can't reconcile with.

Can I ask you something?

Anything.

Is Russell Jackson a crier?

- (laughs) - I mean, I know he is.

He is, right?

That gnarly exterior.

Then he comes in here and just...

: ...loses it.

Just get me the loan docs by tomorrow,

and we'll be good to go.

Act natural, Mr. Humphrey.

I need to get back to work.

Have you had any contact

with your ex-wife in the last two months?

No.

- Do you have any knowledge of her whereabouts? - No.

Do you know anyone

who might have knowledge of her whereabouts?

No. Come on, I tell you the same thing every week.

Nothing's changed.

- What the hell is going on? - I'll ask the questions,

Mr. Humphrey.

It's our little girl's birthday tomorrow.

What am I supposed to tell her about her mom?

That's not my concern.

But I'll remind you

that if you ever tell anyone about our meetings,

you'll face ten years in federal prison

under Title 18, Section...

Can you at least tell me, is she in danger or trouble...?

Thank you for your time, Mr. Humphrey.

This is beyond mortifying.

Come on. Mom doesn't want to completely miss out

on your driver's education, Noodle.

What he said.

News flash: There isn't going to be

a motorcade on my driving test.

Well, it's D.C. You never know.

It's not a big deal.

Yeah, until someone tweets a photo of me motorcading.

You cannot just have a fighter pilot

teaching you how to drive.

- (phone ringing) - Our life is so weird.

And yet we make it work.

Get in the car, will you?

Hello.

Yeah. Okay.

Wipe that smirk

off your face.

I have to go in.

Country first.

Drive safe.

- Is everything okay? - I don't know.

The president wants me in the Situation Room.

We'll see.

- You be safe. - I'll try.

Wish me luck.

Change of plans.

Russell, what's going on?

We found Juliet.

She agreed to a deal?

No.

NSA got a ping on her location.

How?

She was masking her IP address,

but she stayed online long enough

for us to break the firewall.

- That doesn't sound like her. - I know.

We got lucky.

One of the servers she was using crashed.

When it rebooted, we got a jump on her.

Even so...

Well, everyone's got a weak spot.

In Juliet's case, it's her kids.

She was hacking the Webcam in her husband's kitchen.

Where is she?

Tindouf Province in southwestern Algeria.

Near the border with Mauritania.

How remote are we talking?

She's in a small structure on the base of a mountain.

There's nothing else for miles.

Meaning we can't get close

- without blowing operational integrity. - Exactly.

AFRICOM can have an armed drone in place in five hours.

Armed? What...?

Did I miss something here?

Get into it, Admiral.

Yes, sir, Mr. President.

Bess, I'm putting Juliet on the kill list.

The attorney general signed off half an hour ago.

What happened to negotiations?

If-if we bring her in alive,

she could have Intel.

And if she slips away,

we might never get a chance like this again.

Given her location, there are too many ways

she can get tipped off that we're coming

if we send in the cavalry.

She's been stalling.

That e-mail she sent you,

claiming she wanted to come in,

was obviously a ploy

to distract us while she got ensconced

in a non-extradition country.

What about how it'll play?

Executing an American citizen abroad without due process?

She's a traitor and helped murder the Secretary of State.

The A.G. says it's a slam dunk.

Could look like a cover-up.

Could look like justice.

Russell's being a good soldier.

20 minutes ago, he made the same argument

you just made.

All our intelligence assessments are unanimous

that Juliet is the last of the coup conspirators.

There's strong evidence that she's still conspiring

with opposition elements in Iran,

which means she arguably poses

a clear and present danger to American lives.

We have a real shot at taking her out.

We're going to take it.

I know there could be blowback,

but this is about national security.

President Shiraz will be here

to sign the nuclear treaty in two days.

I'd like to put this behind us

before I stand next to him in the East Room.

In that case,

you'll need me to pave the way with Algeria.

You send in a drone without their blessing,

they'll probably shoot it down.

DOD can handle the Algerians.

Or spook them.

Let the state department handle this.

Velvet glove.
