"I just want to tell her about her position." "We've decided to invite Howard to take emeritus status." "This will limit his voting rights and his contact with the associates." "Would that be a satisfactory remedy for your agency?" "Yes." "Yes, I think it would." "Consider it done, then." "You used the FEPA complaint to get what you wanted all along." "No." "I did what needed to be done to save the firm." "MAN: 25, 26, 27, 28... you're one short." "No, we're not." "What happened?" "Sorry, Ruth, you're not viable." "Wait, we had 29." "What happened?" "It's the youth minister." "She's gone." "I'm not giving you additional time to find your lost sheep." "Come on, Carl." "Even a youth minister has to powder her nose." " No." " I have worked six caucuses, and never once seen a precinct chair reject a request for a reasonable accommodation on time." "Letter of the law, spirit of it, too." "ALICIA:" "Sir, your denial of our request violates procedural due process." "I may not be a high-priced lawyer, Mrs. Florrick, but I know the rules: no extra time." "Mr. Peltola?" "Pursuant to Rule 7B, a precinct chair must certify all votes cast and the number of voters registered at the precinct." " I know the rules." " If a voter is missing, it is encuincumbentmbent upon you to find out whether or not the voter has, in fact, left the premises." "First Ruth tells me she's powdering her nose, now you tell me Elvis left the building." "No, I checked the ladies' room." "She's not there." "Listen up, everybody!" "We're adding five additional minutes to the vote to locate a voter." "(All groaning, murmuring)" "Nice job, ladies." "Let's just find that minister." "Yeah, Jason, what do you got?" "Ugh." "Enough antioxidants running through my system to ensure that I never die." " Where are you?" " You don't want to know." "I followed the paper trail" " on the whole Howard thing." " That was fast." "I found out who moved the money." "It wasn't Howard." "Who was it?" "David Lee." "Makes sense." "What's his angle?" "Is he embezzling?" "No idea." "Alicia probably has a better sense of it than me." "Okay." "I'll see if I can use this." "And don't become a stranger, okay?" "Hey, never, Lucca." "You know me." "That's what I mean." "I do know you." "And I like Alicia." "Ouch." "What'd I do?" "What you always do." "Flirt with everyone." "(Chuckles)" "All right, can I go now, Mom?" "Behave." "Please." "Always." "I found her... the youth minister." "Oh, thank God." "Where is she?" " She joined the Hillary supporters." " What?" "!" "Since when?" "We're not gonna be viable."

"In a surprise upset, it's Governor Peter Florrick." "(Ruth shrieking happily)" "(Laughter, cheering)" "That's quite an upset for Hillary." "Oh, 123 votes, Governor." "Congratulations." "That's a 79-vote margin... in this bellwether precinct that counts as an order of magnitude." "Ruth, I'm a convert." "I don't know what you did in there!" "It was a group effort." "Well, keep on paving the way to the Promised Land." "Doing my best, sir." "This next precinct is pivotal." "One second." "Hillary won't be pleased." "(Scoffing laugh) It's one precinct." "We got a very long way to go." "Listen, as long as I have you here, I have to ask." "That argument you had with Eli... what was it about?" "I think you'd prefer not to know." "Well, is there something going on between you and Eli?" "It's about the past." "RUTH:" "Sorry to interrupt, folks." "Moment of truth time." "The networks are about to announce the projected winner of the caucus." "Okay." "REPORTER:" "We have the final coming in..." "Chris." "CHRIS MATTHEWS:" "We now can project the winner of the 2016" "Iowa caucuses." "It is, with 51 counties in her column," "Hillary Rodham Clinton." "Uh, second place, Governor..." "that keeps us in the game." "MATTHEWS:" "And for second place, here it is, it's coming through now..." "with 27 counties," "Bernie Sanders." "And for third place, Martin O'Malley." "It looks like all the candidates finished pretty much as predicted." "The big surprise, though, is Peter Florrick, from neighboring Illinois." "He finished a distant fourth." "A very distant fourth." "Florrick won a meager four out of 99 counties:" "Polk and the three he visited yesterday." "It looks like his Full Grassley wasn't full enough." "Florrick won a meager four of 99 counties..." "Polk and the three he visited yesterday." "It looks like his Full Grassley wasn't full enough." "(Turns off TV)" "Jackie..." "I'm sorry." "(Sighs heavily)" "Do you know what was invented in Iowa?" "No." "Neither do I. Because Iowa has contributed nothing to our union, and I don't understand why a state so insignificant gets the right to kick off a presidential primary." "Do you want to go home?" "No." "I want to settle this tonight." "Well, the $2.2 million in Howard's account... it was put there by David Lee." "Howard knew nothing about it." "So Howard was telling the truth?" "Yes." "And he isn't senile?" "He isn't." "(Sighs with relief)" "That is good news." "Where are you going?" "To my fiancé." "Howard..." "I'm awake." "I'm awake." "(Grunting)" "I'm sorry, sweetheart, I should never have doubted you." "(Wry chuckle) Everybody makes mistakes." "Worst one of all: doubting me." "Let's just forget about this silly prenup." "You sure?" "It seemed your son was pretty serious about it." "He won't push it." "Not after tonight." "What do you mean, tonight?" "He lost the presidency." "Ooh." "Sorry." "So am I." "(Sighs contentedly):" "Mm." "I hope we have some time together." "Mm." "We will." "Promise." "You overreached." "You sweet-talked Peter, convinced him he could win the presidency." "You attacked the frontrunner and ended up alienating voters." "I don't need the Monday morning quarterbacking, Eli." "I did exactly as you would have:" "followed the polling data..." "For any other candidate, yes." "But not this one." "You were with him 24/7 for months, and you missed the most fundamental thing about the man." "Peter Florrick is not number one." "Not nationally." "She is." "Yes, Eli, we all know" "Hillary Rodham Clinton is a giant." "No, not Hillary." "Alicia."
