" Hey, Gary." "How you doing?" " Good." "Good." "Good." "He's not..." "This isn't yours?" " He's my nephew." " Cute, I imagine." "I'll tell you what, kid." "Here's a Jackson." "Go get yourself 10 sodas and you never saw us." "Or just water." "Just choose water." " Wow, this is weird, huh?" " Amy:" "Mm." "It's been a long time since I've seen you guys." "Wow." "Did you see those pictures that I sent you?" "No, I didn't, Gary." "And why the fuck are we here?" "Okay, easy, easy." "It's anonymous." "Just pretend like you're parents checking this place out." " Paint something." " I don't even paint my own nails, Gary." "A Vietnamese lady does that." "Talk or we leave." "It's the Families First Bill." "It's a difficult time for the president." "Gary, I am very good at my job, and even I can't get people to vote for that heap of mystery meat." "It's not that." "It's the opposite." "She wants it to go away." "So Selina needs to lose the vote and you want us to lobby members of Congress under the wire." "I am so glad I left." "She has gone full Colonel Kurtz." "Is she giving orders from under the desk?" "She doesn't even know about this, all right?" "And she's not gonna know about this." "Okay, well, in that case, I'm gonna say yes to this," " but for one reason only." " Loyalty?" " Money." " Can't you just do this for Selina?" " No." " Okay, well, I can't authorize that." "Well, get Ben to." "How'd you know Ben was involved?" " Okay." " Because he's not." " Right." " This is getting completely out of hand." "No, no, it isn't." "We just accepted your proposal and we'll be in touch with the figures." "Okay, all right." "Thank you." "No, no, no." "You want to blow our cover?" "Nobody shakes hands in a craft shop." "You know, at least three of these kids are probably mine." "Okay."

"I can't see it if the flowers are there." " ( sneezes ) Ugh, God." " Oh, God." "No, no, let me get that, you sweet little invalid." "I'm not an invalid." "I'm completely fine." " These are empty." " I don't know how I got this." "From meeting people, I guess." "God, Gary, I wish to Jesus that you had gotten this flu instead of me." "Oh, my God, me, too." "Me, too."

"Yeah, it's really close, but we're doing our best to lose it." "Can I just restate how difficult me knowing this makes my job?" "Which is already extremely difficult."

" But what if it was gone?" " Oh, that's a good point." " Thank you." "So you're the best the White House has to offer?" " Yes, sir." " Two giant children in their dads' suits." "Uh, sir, we have a folder full of numbers here, and I think you'll find these numbers just to be great, great numbers." "Saying what?" " Uh, Richard, what do the numbers say?" " You haven't read the numbers." "We've glanced at the numbers, sir, and at first glance they are very compelling." " You know where the door is." " Sir, if there's anything..." "Oh, wait."

"Oh, you know, presidential." "It's like she wants to run the whole damn country." "You know what?" "The last guy, he was the same way." "We agreed she's gonna stay president."

"Ma'am, I know it's difficult when you're running the free world, but you should really get some rest." "Yeah, ahem, or maybe I can get a new doctor." "In which case I'll just say keep taking the fluids, ma'am." "Moyes is voting no." "Good news... for the other side." " That's so bad." " I know, I know." " So bad." " Yeah." "Bill:" "Have you heard about Moyes?" "It's incredible... how shortsighted some people can be." "Unbelievable." "Unbelievable, that's what we were saying." " I'll check back on you later, ma'am." " Okay, thank you." "Ahem." "Okay, congratulations, ma'am." "So great about Moyes." "We're now only four votes away from killing your bill." "I feel like I'm captain of the Titanic and I carved out the iceberg myself." "Okay, ma'am, I think you need to take a little power nap." " You need to rest, okay?" " Yeah, I think maybe I'm gonna rest." " Yeah, just rest your body." " Yeah." "Ma'am, are you ready for your next meeting?" " SecDef is here." " Okay, no." "It's okay." "I can sleep when I'm dead in about an hour." "There is nothing good to be said about Families First." "Not since Herod has there been a piece of legislation so damaging to average families."

"I don't need to be ridden by you two lobby horses to know that this bill is a waste of bowel space." " Well, that's great." " Fantastic." "Amy:" "It is nice to meet somebody in politics who knows what he's talking about for a change." "Yeah, Congressman, I'm just gonna leave you now with some numbers." "And spoiler alert, they do not add up." "This is the same folder that Jonah Ryan had." "Wait, you met with Jonah Ryan?" "Six-foot waxwork and his cuddly boyfriend?" " That would be him." " So you don't work for the White House, but you have the same numbers." "Well, now I'm interested." "Now I am deeply fucking interested." "We have the same Office Depot folder as they do." "Call the "Washington Post." I smell conspiracy." "Okay, sure, so why is this one shaking like Elvis's leg?" "You know, I'm starting to get the feeling that Meyer wants her own bill to fail." "I think I've just reboarded the vote yes express." "Meyer is a stand-in president." "Don't you think it's time we have someone who is qualified?" "The president is qualified to be president because she is president." "Does your party have a candidate who is president?" "Selina:" "I like that. ( coughs )" "Thank you, ma'am." "And again, thank you for joining us." "Oh, you're welcome." "Thank you." "Ahem." "We need to discuss the color of tie that Tom's gonna wear..." "I'm sorry, ma'am." "What was that?" "I didn't..." "Oh, no, I was just sending a memo." "I didn't want to keep interrupting all the time." "That is very considerate." "Thank you." "This is no way to run a civilized society." " ( phone chimes )" " I believe... what is that?" "It's a memo from the president." " Go ahead, it's not important." " It is important, Ben." "Every memo I send is important." "Send memo." "Jesus." "I'm not getting any memos." " ( phone chimes )" " Oh, now I am." "Selina:" "Go ahead, Tom." "Okay." "Well, Senator, to return to my..." "And you've got to be aggressive, though, you know?" "Man up here a little bit." " Be aggressive?" " Yeah." "I'm starting to get really angry, Senator." "I'm starting to feel that you're not really listening to me, Senator." "And I'm getting sick of your constant interruptions." "What the fuck?" "Moyes is voting yes?" "Moyes was 100% no." "Moyes was a no." "Ben, Moyes was supposed to be 100% no." "That's it." "I'm throwing the debate." "You win, pretend opponent." "Wait a second, Kent had a list who Jonah and Richard were seeing and you had a list who Dan and Amy were seeing?" "Did you not think to compare the lists?" "I have another list and you're right at the top of it, Gary, so don't you dare try to question my fucking methods." "Well, I on the other hand, do dare to question your fucking methods." "Well, Kent and I were running different parts of the operation." "So your people are going to see the same people as Jonah and Richard?" "One." "One of the same people." "Oh, one." "So one's okay." "We just let off one nuke at the Super Bowl." "Oh, so now you want to micromanage something that you didn't even want to be involved in." "I don't want to manage it, but don't you think we could maybe find someone competent who could?" "Okay, whatever it is, I don't need to know." "I'll tell you what's going on." "Jonah saw Moyes earlier today and Dan and Amy have, too." "And now Moyes is onto us." "Why did you just tell me that?" "This is so much worse for me." "I was the field agent who gave Dan and Amy the mission." "I was the messenger." "I could be shot." "This isn't about you, Gary." "Jesus, nothing here is ever about you." "I didn't hear any of this 'cause I have a really bad case of tinnitus, especially when discussing morally dubious things." "So it's kind of like sinnitus." "But I'm implicated." "I'm the linchpin." " I could go to jail!" " Both:" "Shut up!" "No, you shut up." "You shut up." "And I will also shut up first." "Sue!" "Sue, I need to see the president." "She's in with the joint chiefs, Gary." "Is it that important?" "Listen, Sue, I'm involved with some stuff here." "Scary stuff like take it to your grave kind of stuff." "And that's the... that's the way I like it." "Okay, well, she'll be out in five." "Can it wait?" "Yeah, no problem." "No problem." "Dan:" "What if he checks our cover story?" "Like, what if he informs Congress?" "Dan, he's a congressman." "Congressmen never do anything they say they're gonna do." " How are you not freaking out about this?" " ( blows raspberry )" "I'm kind of having fun." "I like having a cover story." "Makes me feel like a Charlie's Angel." "God, it was a rush!" "Yeah, but you're a control freak and this whole thing is out of control, so why aren't you freaking?" "Relax." "I'm finally having fun." "Let me." "Jesus, you know, I always thought the old Amy was kind of an uptight bitch, but now I sort of miss her." "You know, if I was uptight, I'd be offended by that." "In fact, I am offended." "You shouldn't call people bitches." "You shouldn't do that anymore." "Unless it's like "bitch" or something like that." " I'm sorry." " Excuse me." "Thank you for your service." "Ben:" "How was the meeting, sir?" "Very productive." "( whispering ) It's like something out of a political cartoon." "What, you mean not funny?" "Oh, my God." "How the hell did Moyes end up on two lists?" "I made it clear Ben should run all his list alterations past me." "No, mine was the master list." "Your list was a sub-list." "It was a sur-list, which means over-list." " Oh, fuck you." " Your earwax could bring down a president." "And I didn't even want to see Dan and Amy." "And now they're expecting money." " I didn't know that." " Money?" "Money?" "Gary, I said access only." "Yeah, now we're gonna have to divert funds from the campaign and that's fraud." "And then we're gonna have to destroy the evidence and that's conspiracy to commit fraud." "No, a cash trail is very fucking bad for us." " Oh." " Hey, hold on there, Hunk of the Month." "If I'm going down, you're going down, too." "I don't know what this is about." "Good point." "Dan and Amy." "They're getting paid cash from the campaign fund to bring down the bill." "There, you've been blooded." "So join the circle jerk." "Grab a dick." "Wish I could hear what you were saying over that incessant drilling sound." " Gary:" "What are you doing?" "Shh!" " ( Selina coughs )" "What cash?" "( coughs )" "What Dan and Amy?" "Ben's paying Dan and Amy to lobby against the bill and now there's a cash trail and we're all incriminated." "But you're not." "( laughs )" "Oh, my God, now you are!" "Well done." "Now I feel a lot better." "Did you know, Tom?" "Ma'am, I am as shocked as you are." "Shocked and disappointed, Ben." "Ma'am, Moyes is voting yes." "Ruiz is voting yes." "This comes down to one vote." "We need Congressman Pierce." "My future depends on that dumb fucking elf?" "Jeez... where is he?" "Pierce:" "I'm so proud of how brave you've been." "I was looking for some lotion, but they didn't..." "Hello, Congressman Pierce, Mrs. Pierce." "We are here from the White House on behalf of the Families First Bill." "Oh, yes." "Mom, the White House here to see me." "We need you to vote for the bill." "More importantly, the president needs you to vote for the bill." "The president?" "The president sent you here to talk to me?" "She used sentences containing your name." "Okay, I'm in." "I mean, yeah, absolutely." " Fantastic!" " Mom, the president needs me to..." "Oh, no, Joker and Penguin beat us to it." "Hey, guys." "You're here just in time to celebrate." "The congressman is going to vote yes on the Families First Bill." "It was a personal request from the president, so..." "Congressman, now, while I respect your decision, you do understand that the amendments to this bill will negatively affect your district." "Hardworking families don't want to support lazy ones." "And your support will shrink faster than a penis in the December Hudson." " Really?" " You shit-eating cocksuckers." " Whoa, whoa!" " I'm sorry, Mrs. Pierce." "How dare you come in here and try to strong-arm a person when he's sitting at his sick mother's bedside?" "That's exactly what you just did, dumbass." "Don't tell me what I did or did not just do." "Could you guys please keep the noise down?" "There's a lot of really sick people on this floor." "Yes, there are." "I see two very sick people." "Those two." "Sue:" "All right, ma'am, I've just spoken to Amy." "Her and Dan are with Pierce and his mom at the hospital." " But there's been a holdup." " Oh, God." "She's probably gonna die just to spite me." "That evil bitch." "And Richard and Jonah are there." "And I blame Kent and Bill for that." "Well, this is a long glass of frozen strawberry fuckup." "Hey, listen, Ben, you've got to do something." "I don't want to be a bagman for the toughest guy in D block." " All right, stop it, Gary." " Okay, look, get Pierce here." "Okay?" "Right now." "( coughs )" "I'm gonna take control of this situation that I don't know anything about, right?" "Because I am the only one who seems to be... ( coughing )" " Capable." " ( coughing )" "Oh, God." "Is it possible to stop coughing?" "( coughing ) No!" " You are not taking him." " His jittery ass is mine." " Guys, I'm right here." " I'm sorry, your jittery ass is the president's." "You shouldn't even be here, Jonah, unless you're giving your brain to science." "I'm here on behalf of the president, Amy." "Do you remember her?" "She's the woman that would have fired you if you hadn't gone fucking Fukushima." "Richard:" "That's right, we're on a mission." "I am surprised the two of you even found your way out of your own mothers' vaginas." "Oh, my God, dude, I got out of there like I had a fucking map." "How about a little bit of consideration for a dying woman?" "Oh, I'm not dying." "I'm just here for some tests." "Okay, pipe down." "Wait, where's Pierce?" "Wait, where's Amy?" "No, no, no, no!" "No, no." " That's Amy." " Shit!" " Oh, my..." " Yeah, what a shame." "We should use this finger to wipe your tears." " ( alarm chirps )" " Whoa." "No, no, no, no." "Dan, get out of my car." "Do you think I want to be in this fucking Minecraft piece of shit?" "I am an emissary of the president and I demand that you get out of my car." "You colossal fucking fanny pack." "You don't get it, do you?" "They only sent you 'cause they knew that you would fuck it up." "You're so stupid, you don't even know that you're being used for your stupidity." "That's bullshit, Dan." "I can tell from your eyes and because it's fucking bullshit." "Where's Richard?" " ( honks horn )" " This isn't fucking over, Egan." " Just get in and drive, bitch." " Okay." " ( alarm blaring )" " Jonah:" "Shit." " Are you fucking kidding me?" " It's just a glitch." " Oh, this is your car, right?" " Yep." " ( alarm stops )" " See?" "Fixed it." " Richard:" "Okay." " ( engine starts )" "Dan:" "You're backing up?" "Just fucking go straight." "I took a precision driving class, Dan." "I think I know what I'm doing." "Ma'am, we've lost Pierce." "I'm sorry." "We should have hired Navy SEALs instead of those two actual seals." "How do you lose a whole person?" "A cuff link I get, but not a person." "( groaning, whispering )" "Okay." "She said she's losing her voice." "Just heard from a reporter who says Moyes thinks the White House hired lobbyists to destroy its own bill." " Oh, my God." " Ben:" "Jesus." "Mm-hmm." "Mm-hmm." "She said you fucked up, Ben." "And I'm mad as hell that you put Gary in the shit." "You need to get him out." " Bill:" "She didn't say that, Gary." " Yes, she did." "( overlapping arguing )" "Everyone, shut your fucking holes!" "The president is not sick." " ( groans )" " You guys are." "You're parasites." "You're like an infestation of mediocrity."

"This is not about serving yourselves." "This is about serving the president." "So let's do that, shall we?" " Tom." " Tom." " Shut up, Gary." " Shut... mm-hmm." "I do the team talks, okay?" "You're absolutely right, ma'am." "And I agree with everything you just said." "So get it together, people!" " ( coughing )" " All:" "Yes, ma'am." "Find Pierce." "Call NASA." "They've got to have a satellite that can pinpoint a moron." "All:" "Yes, ma'am." "If you want to catch a fugitive, you got to think like a fugitive." " Where's he going?" " Uh, to the airport." "Why would he be going to the airport?" "To catch a plane, Dan." "You know, you could just hit the fucking gas, Jonah." "Dan, I'm not getting a ticket."

"Look, I'm not hiding, just so you know." "Okay, Congressman, time to exit through the gift shop." "Okay, sir, you're gonna have to come with us." "Guys, my mom is too ill to be left alone right now." "I mean, I left her alone right now because she likes to read." "But she can't read right now because she's very sick." "But she might get better." "Or she might not get better." " She could be buried with a book." " We know she's not dying." " She's a fighter, is the thing." " Good for her."

"Amy:" "Well, we're taking the credit." "No, we're taking the credit." "How about a compromise?" "We'll take all the credit." " Well, perhaps we could split the bounty?" " What bounty?" "Well, I'm guessing there's no bounty, but..." "Dan, Amy, how are you?" "I'll take it from here." " I want to take in Pierce." " Whoa, whoa." "No, no, no." "We are not going into the White House and blowing our cover for this guy." "You can't come in." "That comes from the president." " Well, she's a bitch." " I'll tell her you said hi."
