YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENS IF A BORED NURSE
OR AN ARROGANT DOCTOR TWEETS THAT THE PRESIDENT,
THE SAME ONE WHO WAS SHOT IN THE HEAD TEN MONTHS AGO,
IS IN THE HOSPITAL IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT?
MARKETS PANIC, REPORTERS SWARM, DEFCON LEVELS CHANGE.
CATS AND DOGS WILL FINALLY GET ALONG?
SIR...
YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH DAMAGE CONTROL THIS REQUIRES.
THE LIES I'VE HAD TO TELL JAMES MADISON
IN ORDER TO REPLACE THEIR STAFF ON THIS FLOOR
WITH MILITARY PERSONNEL WHO WON'T TELL THE "NEW YORK TIMES"
THAT THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES
IS HERE ON A LATE-NIGHT *** CALL.
I'M HERE. I'M STAYING HERE UNTIL OLIVIA IS DISCHARGED,
BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT YOU DO
WHEN SOMEONE YOU LOVE IS IN THE HOSPITAL.
YOU'RE WELCOME TO WAIT HERE WITH ME,
RUN WHATEVER KIND OF INTERFERENCE YOU THINK IS BEST,
(door opens)
I'M SURE YOU'VE GOT AN ARMY OF SECRET SERVICE AGENTS
THAT KNOW YOUR EXACT CREAM-TO-SUGAR RATIO,
THANKS.
CYRUS,
MEET CAPTAIN JAKE BALLARD.
CYRUS BEENE.
JAKE HERE IS THE MAN WHO BROUGHT THE HOSTAGES HOME
AND GOT LIV OUT OF A DICEY SITUATION TONIGHT.
HE IS A MAN OF MANY TALENTS.
I'LL BET YOU ARE.
