- Kirkman learns who is behind the attack and needs to grapple not only with the prospect of war, but brewing domestic troubles as well. Kirkman taps Emily to monitor the domestic situation, while Alex may be in for more than she bargains for when she seeks out help from Hookstraten.—ABC
- Because of his admission in an interview that President Richmond had fired/demoted him, Tom is facing a crisis in Michigan once again with Governor Royce, who has reinstituted a police state targeting Muslims, and who is no longer recognizing Tom's presidency. After discussing the issue with his staff, Tom decides to take Emily up on her offer to act as his observer on the ground in Michigan, despite the poor reception they know she will receive. Emily landing on the ground in Michigan may not solve all their problems with Governor Royce and his beliefs, which they may have to take drastic measures with which to deal. Meanwhile, a CIA operative has discovered that Majid Nassar, who took responsibility for the bombing, is holed up in Algeria. Although Cochrane wants Tom to take decisive action in bombing Algeria in retaliation, Tom isn't sure he is ready to do so, either without the blessing of the Algerian government - allies - or before he knows that the CIA agent has made his way to safety. Tom is also facing another staffing issue in that Carter Donovan, who has assumed the role of White House Press Secretary, is proving that he is both ill equipped to handle the job and that it is a job he truly doesn't want. Tom needs someone in the job that can pass along some confidence in Tom's administration, something that Carter is not doing. Hannah continues her investigation of Congressman MacLeish, she believing that he being away from his seat at the exact time the bomb exploded not an accident. And Alex finds that she can't leave her professional life as a lawyer behind her. She will have to decide how much she will use her role as First Lady to aid a client, those political favors which always have strings attached.—Huggo
