Are you seriously trying

to rope-a-dope me?

That's an old man's move.

I am an old man.

No, you're not.

But you box like one.

Not bad.

Come on, keep your guard up.

Come on!

Come on, Ben,

you're telegraphin'.

Mr. President.

Ten minutes, sir.

Thank you.

Thank you, Forbes.

Hey. You're not supposed

to hit the President.

Yeah. I know.

I'll get you next time.

Yeah.

I'm sure you will.

Perimeter secure.

Weather's

getting worse out there,

but we're advised

it's drivable.

Post vehicles to standby.

Good evening, Mr. President.

Five minutes, sir.

Thanks, Mike.

Evening, ma'am.

Merry Christmas, Mike.

President gets us off our

dependence on foreign oil

yet he cannot help a

wife choose an earring.

Nah, small one. Classic

look for a classic lady.

Good chat.

Kiss ass.

Well, I love you both but

I am going with the long.

I hate going

to these fundraisers.

Why don't you go for me?

Oh, honey.

You're perfect.

God forbid people know we kiss.

Now the real bloodbath starts

when your mom catches

you playing this.

You suck.

You suck worse.

Come on.

Well, he likes it

when you call him Dries

because it makes him feel like, I

don't know, you're pals or something.

Hey, love. You wanna open

a gift before we go?

It's not "love,"

and I'm gonna wait till

everyone else is here.

Keep forgetting.

Sorry.

Do I really have to

come with you guys?

I mean, I've been on so many.

Re-election's

hard work, buddy.

Sorry, pal.

Can I at least ride with Mike?

You'll have to ask him.

He's the boss.

Mike, do I get

to ride with you?

Okay. All right.

Okay, Diaz.

You're riding

in The Beast tonight.

Merry Christmas.

Thank you, sir.

You okay to stay back and

watch the fort tonight?

You kidding me?

In this weather?

Get out of this monkey

suit, sit by the fire,

watch Breaking Bad?

Fine by me.

My own little retirement party.

Leave the babysitter

alone, all right?

Are you going to wear that hat?

I like the hat.

I think it's fine.

It's age appropriate.

You take it off

when you get inside.

No, the girls dig it.

Mustang, this is Big Top.

Bringing out the full package.

Let's go.

Package is on the move.

ETA to Morgan

residence, 22 minutes.

Keep it tight, everybody.

Hey, Connon Come on.

Scoot back.

Put your belt on.

What if I don't?

Then O'Neil here's gonna

punch you in the nuts.

Come on.

You keeping 180

degrees awareness?

I thought you said it was 360?

Yeah, just checkin'.

Setting me up

is what you're doing.

All right. So, how

many emergency exits

in the West Wing?

Eight.

How many feet from the Oval

Office to the P.E.O.C. elevator?

From doors closing

in the elevator,

how long does it take

to get to the P.E.O.C.?

Four minutes.

Security cameras?

How many have audio?

Only the ones

in the common areas.

Not bad.

Kid's got it, huh?

Yeah, we're gonna make a Secret

Service agent outta you yet.

You just need to remember

to keep your seatbelt on.

That's right.

Gosh, it's really coming down.

Hmm.

I've been thinking

about shaving my head.

That sounds good.

It's getting worse out there.

Bring it down to five.

Merry Christmas,

Mr. President.

You shouldn't have.

My God. It's my

grandfather's watch.

How did you find this?

Just have my ways.

Thank you.

Mmm.

You're just welcome.

Now, let's talk about

that shaved head idea.

You were listening.

You didn't think I was listening, did you?

Very clever.

You ever been to a billionaire's

Christmas party before, Diaz?

No, sir.

They're overrated.

Yes, sir.

Oh, my gosh.

Look what I found.

Where'd that come from?

Merry Christmas.

Stop, stop, stop!

Hey, Connon stay right there!

Clear communications, Diaz.

First Lady's injured.

Connon

Get some weight on the back!

O'Neil, get on the back!

I'm gonna get this door!

Don't anybody move inside.

Don't move!

Maggie!

Eagle Number

One is hanging off the bridge.

Route 117.

Get the birds out.

Sir?

Seatbelt's stuck!

Sir, get out of the car!

I'll take care of her!

Keep your weight

on the back, O'Neil!

Roma, open the f***ing door!

It's jammed! It's f***ing jammed!

Pull her out that side!

It's going down.

It's going down.

O'Neil, God damn it!

Hold it down!

Mike, it's going!

Hold it back!

Mike, take Maggie!

Sh*t.

Sir, I'm sorry.

Watch out, it's going!

It's going! ASHER: Maggie!

No, Mike!

No!

Dad!

Mom!

I'm sorry.

Yeah.

I don't like going to barbecues

by myself, you know?

North Korean

maneuvers along the DMZ continue

to ring alarm bells

throughout Pacific markets,

even as President Asher

is set to meet

this afternoon

with South Korean...

Babe,

we out of coffee?

I don't know.

Are we?

All right, just...

I thought you said

that anything...

You were saying?

I was saying, I'll get

some more coffee.

Great.

Yeah.

So, how was the

barbecue I missed?

It was actually kind of fun.

You might have enjoyed it.

Yeah?

Mmm-hmm.

Paula's got this new

boyfriend who's very sweet

but he's working in the same

department as her ex, Alex.

Remember Alex?

Anyway, Alex ended up

showing up at the party,

which was really weird

for Paula, who was...

Overwhelmed.

Mike, you're

not listening to me.

Yeah.

I was listening.

You were talking about

Patty's boyfriend and...

No. Paula

and Paula's boyfriend.

You've met Paula.

It's okay, Mike.

We'll talk about it later.

All right, babe.

I'm sorry.

But I tell you what.

Why don't we go see

a movie tonight?

Okay? Just

the two of us.

Or you can bring

Paula and Patty

and their boyfriends.

You know what

I think we should do?

I think we should

take that holiday

that we've been talking about.

All right?

You, me, the ocean.

Come on. It'll be like the

honeymoon we never had.

We didn't have a honeymoon?

Thank you.

Thanks.

So, how was your Fourth?

My fourth what?

Fourth of July.

Don't be an ass.

Some people do take

holidays, you know.

Yeah, it was quiet.

You know, we stayed in.

We?

Okay. I stayed in.

She went out.

I'm shocked.

Ms. Jacobs?

Good morning.

Morning, Director.

How are you, buddy?

Hey, Roma.

Good to see you, partner.

How's the family?

The kids are good. Thank you.

Yeah. Yeah?

O'Neil.

Hey, Banning.

You're looking sharp.

So, we missed you

for poker, uh, last week.

Where were you? Missed

taking your money.

Yeah, I know. I've been

working the late shift.

Yeah, non-stop action over

there at the Treasury.

You gotta do what

you gotta do, right?

Yeah. You guys got a big

day coming up, huh?

You got the Koreans coming in?

Nah, I mean, you know.

Business as usual.

Hey, I wanted to introduce you.

This is Agent Jones.

You've heard of Mike

Banning, haven't you?

Yeah, yeah. The guy who

told the Speaker of the House

to go f*** himself.

Don't you guys

have somewhere to be?

Yes, ma'am.

Yes, ma'am.

Hey, Mike. Good seein' you.

Yeah, you too.

Come Thursday night, all right?

Okay.

7:
00.

Not getting any easier, huh?

No.
