Go to bed.
I would, but we have a problem.
[SIGHS.]
Yeah, I know.
You're still breathing.
That little bitch you call a daughter is missing.
What? She's gone.
That's not possible.
It's the White House.
She can't just leave.
Okay, fine.
I knew you wouldn't believe me.
Yeah, you know what? I don't believe you trying to get my attention.
Ask your man.
What man is that? Max? Hmm.
I'll call him.
W-Wait.
He's not on-site, is he? I don't know.
Where is he, Hunter? I don't know.
No, you do.
Did he go to get that girl? Would you just go to bed? Don't you dare pretend to be working.
Can't you see these intel briefs? I see the porn reflecting in your glasses, asshole.
I swear, if you bring that girl into this place again, you will regret it.
So will you, darling, so will you.
I regret the day I met you every second.

And where are you? I'm on assignment.
Off-grounds? - Yes.

She was behaving like one.
And what do you think you do every day? You keep talking, and you'll be next to get the taser.

Yeah, you, uh You got that right.
Go to bed.
'Night.
I knew it.
I just told you to go to bed.
You had better get that little bitch in line.
Or what? I will.
Is that what you were doing when you tased her? If this gets to the press What, you'll look like the evil mother that you are? You get that girl in line, and I mean it.
Why are we just sitting here? We've been delayed.

How the hell does this happen? What's going on? Permission to speak freely, sir? Go ahead.
Well, your lead, sir, Max I know that he is very trusted and has come with you from the governor's mansion, but I've worked here for two administrations.
Now, there are certain protocols that have to be adhered to that Max isn't aware of, and I'd like - Max is my guy.

I'm on it personally, sir.

Didn't have sex with him, but I could have.
Then I started thinking about Richard and Barry and How much it would hurt 'em.

- Yes, sir.
Any press on this? No, sir.
We have it contained.
Okay.
Okay, great.
Is that a compliment, sir? [BEEP.]
Damn.
Where the hell are you? - Yo, li'l mama.
- [SIGHS.]
Yo, , you don't hear us? Go to hell.
You're gonna be stuck-up today? Who the hell you think you're talking to? Don't touch me.
Oh, you think you're all that, huh? Funny.
I said don't touch me.
What? [GAYLE SCREAMING.]
Are you still upset? I'm fine.
Are you sure? Just leave me in the dark.
- Well, I just came up - Stop beating around the bush.
What is it? Look, I I have to go to the White House.
Then go.
Can we talk about this when I return? Talk about what? I mean, you won't tell me anything.
Honey, it's Just go.
[DOOR CLOSES.]
Don't scream.
Don't run.
Next on "The Oval" - What do you want? - You.
Can you believe those idiots lost my daughter? I find that very hard to believe.
Then maybe you shouldn't have hired Max.
That idiot.
So you're his trained monkey? - That's offensive, ma'am.
- Barry! I seen you before! Where's my daughter at?! - She doesn't know! - I don't want to see you.
- Why, 'cause of my wife? - Yeah, that bitch is crazy.
- [GRUNTS.]
- Is he dealing drugs? - What are you talking about? - Just tell me! - What do you think of Max? - I know that he has been with you a very long time.
Justice for Thomas!
