I'm not trying to start problems with you.

Those are the words he used.

125
00:09:10,291 --> 00:09:13,000
Well, I don't have time.
I don't have time to find another lawyer.

126

[man] DSP missed the launch?

170
00:11:24,166 --> 00:11:26,833
Doesn't matter who launched it.
Just that we knock it down.

171
00:11:26,916 --> 00:11:29,541
Doesn't look like we'll have to.

Hmm. Another yo-yo.

174
00:11:35,291 --> 00:11:37,750
Winslow's crew was on
when the last one popped up.

175
00:11:37,833 --> 00:11:40,125
Said they were filling out paperwork
for a week.

176
00:11:41,875 --> 00:11:43,916
Uh, Mrs. Holland? This is the whizzer.

177
00:11:45,083 --> 00:11:48,125
Sorry, ma'am. Chief Petty Officer Davis,
White House Situation Room.

178
00:11:48,208 --> 00:11:49,500
Is your husband available?

179
00:11:49,583 --> 00:11:51,750
[indistinct chatter]

180
00:11:52,916 --> 00:11:55,166
-Did you see that ball game last night?
-Yes, sir.

181
00:11:55,250 --> 00:11:58,333
-[Davis] Okay. Yes. Thank you, ma'am.
-You believe that Lindor?

182
00:11:58,916 --> 00:12:00,000
Impressive.

183
00:12:00,083 --> 00:12:03,125
Apparently, the national security advisor
took a healthy hit of propofol.

184
00:12:03,208 --> 00:12:05,000
-Oh. Lucky him.
-[Davis] Colonoscopy.

185
00:12:05,083 --> 00:12:06,416
-Call the deputy.
-[Brady] Morning.

186
00:12:06,500 --> 00:12:09,750
-Pleasure to see you. You ready?
-Where the hell's Holland?

187
00:12:10,583 --> 00:12:11,958
Dr. Holland's indisposed, sir,

188
00:12:12,041 --> 00:12:15,791
but we've got Deputy National Security
Advisor Baerington with us.

189
00:12:15,875 --> 00:12:18,166
-He'll be with you shortly.
-It'll be over by then.

190
00:12:18,250 --> 00:12:20,458
-I'm gonna start.
-Go ahead, Tony.

191
00:12:20,541 --> 00:12:24,958
Approximately three minutes ago,
we detected an ICBM over the Pacific.

192
00:12:25,041 --> 00:12:29,000
At this time, we haven't determined
if the launch was land or sea-based,

193
00:12:29,500 --> 00:12:33,083
but the object's trajectory
is consistent with previous tests,

194
00:12:33,166 --> 00:12:36,666
and we expect splashdown
somewhere in the Sea of Japan.

195
00:12:38,708 --> 00:12:40,708
[wind howling]

196
00:12:44,208 --> 00:12:45,291
[keyboard clacking]

197
00:12:46,541 --> 00:12:47,958
[phone rings]

198
00:12:48,041 --> 00:12:50,083
-[man] Greely Ops Center.
-[woman] Greely Ops Center.

199
00:12:50,166 --> 00:12:51,500
[man] Stand by. We're confirming.

200
00:12:51,583 --> 00:12:53,208
-[woman] Lieutenant Collins.
-[man 2] Yes.

201
00:12:54,083 --> 00:12:55,166
Greely Ops Center.

202
00:12:55,250 --> 00:12:56,708
[man] Where are we starting out now?

203
00:12:56,791 --> 00:12:59,166
-[woman 2] Sensor operator.
-Sergeant Diaz here.

204
00:13:00,333 --> 00:13:01,333
[sighs]

205
00:13:01,416 --> 00:13:04,458
-[woman] We're connected to STRATCOM?
-[woman 2] Yeah, looks like another test.

206
00:13:04,541 --> 00:13:06,541
[man] Greely Ops Center. Sergeant…

207
00:13:07,791 --> 00:13:09,041
What is it, Sergeant?

208
00:13:09,541 --> 00:13:12,291
Uh, clear radar acquired our object, sir.

209
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:14,875
Wait. And?

210
00:13:14,958 --> 00:13:18,083
Uh, rate of ascent slowing.
Inclination is flattening.

211
00:13:18,166 --> 00:13:19,416
[Gonzalez] Velocity?

212
00:13:19,500 --> 00:13:22,500
It's steady, sir.
Six kilometers per second.

213
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:25,000
Wait. Is Cheyenne Mountain seeing this?

214
00:13:26,791 --> 00:13:29,375
Are you kidding?
This guy's big break. He's out for a walk?

215
00:13:29,458 --> 00:13:31,333
-[Davis] A block away.
-[Olivia] Not good enough.

216
00:13:31,416 --> 00:13:33,250
Guys, let's keep working
the phones, everyone.

217
00:13:33,333 --> 00:13:34,458
If it is another test,

218
00:13:34,541 --> 00:13:37,541
I want a note within the hour
summarizing regional reaction.

219
00:13:37,625 --> 00:13:38,458
[all] Aye, Captain.

220
00:13:38,541 --> 00:13:40,166
-You better get back on.
-[Olivia] Yep.

221
00:13:40,875 --> 00:13:43,000
Sorry about that. Seems we have an update.

222
00:13:44,458 --> 00:13:46,666
Current velocity indicates

223
00:13:47,166 --> 00:13:49,791
that the object will go suborbital.

224
00:13:51,916 --> 00:13:53,708
Current flight trajectory is consistent

225
00:13:53,791 --> 00:13:56,708
with impact somewhere
in the continental United States.

226
00:13:56,791 --> 00:13:58,083
[Rodbell] Holy shit.

227
00:14:00,041 --> 00:14:02,583
What's your level of confidence
on that, Tony?

228
00:14:03,875 --> 00:14:07,958
[man] Not an error. We're tracking it
on multiple radar systems now.

229
00:14:08,625 --> 00:14:12,833
I'm told… Hi, Jerry.
…we have dual phenomenology on the track.

230
00:14:13,333 --> 00:14:15,166
Nineteen minutes to impact.

231
00:14:15,250 --> 00:14:17,250
[indistinct chatter]

232
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:21,791
Ma'am, I… I don't understand.

233
00:14:23,708 --> 00:14:25,666
Add SECDEF and POTUS to the call.

234
00:14:26,291 --> 00:14:27,833
Now, Davis.

235
00:14:28,416 --> 00:14:30,083
-Were you listening to that?
-[man 2] I was.

236
00:14:30,166 --> 00:14:31,708
-[Olivia] Yeah?
-[man 2] Yeah. Get to it.

237
00:14:32,458 --> 00:14:34,083
[indistinct chatter]

238
00:14:34,875 --> 00:14:36,416
[Gonzalez] Check the shot doctrine.

239
00:14:36,500 --> 00:14:37,916
[man] State Department, yeah.

240
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:39,125
[Gonzalez] Repeat that to me.

241
00:14:39,666 --> 00:14:41,500
-Authenticate.
-Uh…

242
00:14:42,666 --> 00:14:43,791
Uh…

243
00:14:45,125 --> 00:14:46,166
-Uh…
-[Gonzalez] Here. Here.

244
00:14:46,250 --> 00:14:50,000
Oscar, Foxtrot, four, niner, one, six.

245
00:14:50,083 --> 00:14:52,666
Sergeant, you're doing fine.
We've trained for this a million times.

246
00:14:52,750 --> 00:14:53,791
You're good.

247
00:14:53,875 --> 00:14:57,083
Oscar, Foxtrot, four, nine, one, six.
Order is authentic.

248
00:14:57,166 --> 00:14:59,458
-[indistinct chatter]
-[phone ringing]

249
00:14:59,541 --> 00:15:00,833
I'm sorry, say again.

250
00:15:07,708 --> 00:15:10,375
We have weapons-release authority
to launch our GBIs.

251
00:15:13,208 --> 00:15:14,958
[foreboding music playing]

252
00:15:15,666 --> 00:15:17,250
Confirm DEFCON 2.

253
00:15:17,833 --> 00:15:18,875
Holy shit.

254
00:15:20,500 --> 00:15:22,958
-[woman] Down to two.
-[man] Currently, we are at DEFCON 2.

255
00:15:24,041 --> 00:15:27,500
-[woman 2] Are you looking at this?
-[man] DEFCON 2. I repeat, DEFCON 2.

256
00:15:27,583 --> 00:15:29,916
-[woman 3] Have we seen DEFCON 2 before?
-No.

257
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:33,416
Hey, I know this isn't my business,
but it seems really serious.

258
00:15:33,500 --> 00:15:35,208
I'm sorry.
I can't give you any information.

259
00:15:35,291 --> 00:15:39,583
Everyone, relax, okay? A rounding error.

260
00:15:39,666 --> 00:15:42,083
This is still
a commercial satellite launch.

261
00:15:42,166 --> 00:15:45,916
Some billionaire forgot to file
the right paperwork, send his email.

262
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:46,833
Okay, focus.

263
00:15:46,916 --> 00:15:49,416
POTUS is on campus.
Mr. Watts has been notified.

264
00:15:49,500 --> 00:15:51,041
-Adding SECDEF now.
-Great.

265
00:15:51,125 --> 00:15:53,208
SIGINT indicates Moscow
is aware of the launch.

266
00:15:53,291 --> 00:15:57,500
Atypical DPRK activity along the DMZ
could be an unannounced rotation,

267
00:15:57,583 --> 00:15:58,833
but they're not picking up.

268
00:15:58,916 --> 00:16:00,333
Could this be the PLA exercise?

269
00:16:00,416 --> 00:16:03,000
Maybe Davis staged it
so he could put off proposing?

270
00:16:03,083 --> 00:16:06,041
-Hey, not now.
-Exercise was surface warfare only.

271
00:16:06,125 --> 00:16:06,958
No SSBNs.

272
00:16:07,041 --> 00:16:10,500
USS Ford reports multiple J-15s
now launching from the Fujian.

273
00:16:10,583 --> 00:16:13,166
-We expect that?
-We ever know what the Chinese are doing?

274
00:16:14,208 --> 00:16:15,041
Huh?

275
00:16:15,541 --> 00:16:17,833
I mean, a car just backfired.
People are spooked.

276
00:16:18,333 --> 00:16:20,000
I'd be more worried if they weren't.

277
00:16:20,666 --> 00:16:21,750
Okay, what else?

278
00:16:22,250 --> 00:16:24,875
Exercise could've been cover
for a preemptive strike.

279
00:16:24,958 --> 00:16:26,416
By sending one warhead at us?

280
00:16:26,500 --> 00:16:30,041
-That's like suicide by nuclear cop.
-All right, that's enough. That's enough.

281
00:16:30,125 --> 00:16:32,666
-Keep verifying.
-Our job is not to solve the puzzle.

282
00:16:32,750 --> 00:16:35,291
It is to find the pieces,
send it up the chain, okay?

283
00:16:35,375 --> 00:16:37,875
Principals need hard facts,
not speculation.

284
00:16:37,958 --> 00:16:39,541
You find those, you raise your hand.

285
00:16:39,625 --> 00:16:40,875
-Speak up.
-[woman] Yes, sir.

286
00:16:40,958 --> 00:16:42,416
-[woman 2] Yes, sir.
-We got this.

287
00:16:43,041 --> 00:16:44,458
Signature analysis.

288
00:16:46,583 --> 00:16:48,166
Check out the exhaust plume.

289
00:16:50,250 --> 00:16:53,583
-[Davis] It's not good, sir.
-We've run this drill a thousand times.

290
00:16:53,666 --> 00:16:56,416
-You wanna get it up?
-Let's get STRATCOM up on the wall.

291
00:16:58,041 --> 00:17:00,000
[foreboding music playing]

292
00:17:00,083 --> 00:17:02,958
-[man] Um… not sure.
-[woman] I know.

293
00:17:03,041 --> 00:17:04,916
[man] Sixteen minutes to impact.

294
00:17:06,791 --> 00:17:09,125
-[man 2] Okay. All right, everybody.
-[woman 3] Set an alarm.

295
00:17:09,208 --> 00:17:11,041
[Davis] Let's keep dialing, then.

296
00:17:12,500 --> 00:17:14,458
Russia and China's lines are busy.

297
00:17:14,541 --> 00:17:16,375
-[Olivia] Embassies?
-Nothing but tone.

298
00:17:16,458 --> 00:17:18,208
-Right. You tried UN missions?
-Course.

299
00:17:18,291 --> 00:17:21,000
Yeah, the whole world's
calling each other at the same time.

300
00:17:21,083 --> 00:17:23,666
-Keep dialing. Just try it.
-[Davis] Yes, ma'am.

301
00:17:24,500 --> 00:17:26,583
[man over PA] Shelter in place.

302
00:17:27,333 --> 00:17:29,500
-Shelter in place.
-[alarm blaring]

303
00:17:29,583 --> 00:17:31,541
[man over PA] Shelter in place.

304
00:17:33,125 --> 00:17:34,583
Shelter in place.

305
00:17:35,416 --> 00:17:37,291
Shelter in place.

306
00:17:37,375 --> 00:17:39,708
[woman] Confirming. Clamshell's open.

307
00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:43,041
[man] Showing launch status green.

308
00:17:43,916 --> 00:17:46,833
-[woman] Showing launch status green.
-[phone ringing]

309
00:17:52,125 --> 00:17:55,083
[man] Do we have
a COG responsibility here?

310
00:17:55,791 --> 00:17:58,291
My understanding was
we initiate on launch.

311
00:17:58,375 --> 00:18:01,166
Get people moving.
Can we get a legal opinion on that?

312
00:18:01,250 --> 00:18:02,916
[Rodbell] I'm not sure that's right, Reid.

313
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:05,708
In fact, I'm damn near certain
the president has COG.

314
00:18:05,791 --> 00:18:07,833
[Baker] Well, I'm issuing the order.

315
00:18:08,333 --> 00:18:12,208
Plenty of time to sort it later,
and if you're gonna start moving people,

316
00:18:12,291 --> 00:18:14,500
we don't wanna be caught
with our pants down.

317
00:18:14,583 --> 00:18:17,125
I have an updated impact estimate.

318
00:18:17,208 --> 00:18:18,583
[Baker] Go ahead, Tony.

319
00:18:19,750 --> 00:18:22,333
Low probability. Louisville, St. Louis.

320
00:18:22,916 --> 00:18:24,833
Medium. Chicago, Indianapolis.

321
00:18:25,708 --> 00:18:27,916
High. Cleveland, Columbus.

322
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:31,208
That's primary, of course.
Still assessing the prevailing winds.

323
00:18:31,291 --> 00:18:32,791
[woman] Jesus Christ.

324
00:18:33,375 --> 00:18:35,208
-[woman 2] No fucking way.
-Can I get my phone?

325
00:18:35,291 --> 00:18:37,000
No, we have to stay here.

326
00:18:37,083 --> 00:18:39,000
Walker, is this real?

327
00:18:39,500 --> 00:18:40,833
This is in from STRATCOM.

328
00:18:40,916 --> 00:18:42,375
Did you say Chicago?

329
00:18:42,458 --> 00:18:44,500
Uh, yes. In the medium bucket.

330
00:18:44,583 --> 00:18:47,583
Yes. Yes, this is the White House
Situation Room. Hold, please.

331
00:18:47,666 --> 00:18:49,541
I need a Mandarin translator.

332
00:18:49,625 --> 00:18:50,875
-Get him un-busy.
-State.

333
00:18:50,958 --> 00:18:55,000
-Yeah. My hands are a little full here.
-I have the vice premier of China on hold.

334
00:18:55,083 --> 00:18:57,666
-Tice.
-Good shit. Need you on two. Mandarin.

335
00:18:57,750 --> 00:18:59,833
[man] We have
a probability of impact happening.

336
00:18:59,916 --> 00:19:01,875
[overlapping chatter]

337
00:19:01,958 --> 00:19:03,375
[Olivia] White House Situation Room.

338
00:19:03,458 --> 00:19:05,958
We have Louisville, St. Louis
also possible targets.

339
00:19:12,250 --> 00:19:15,458
Hey, we're, uh, ordering Sweetgreen today.
You want?

340
00:19:15,541 --> 00:19:18,541
-Nah, think I'm gonna go out.
-Okay.

341
00:19:20,958 --> 00:19:22,958
[emergency system alarm blares]

342
00:19:24,666 --> 00:19:25,666
[woman] Oh.

343
00:19:27,833 --> 00:19:31,708
Hey, Izzy, did you hear anything
about a drill today?

344
00:19:32,208 --> 00:19:33,541
Not that I know of.

345
00:19:36,083 --> 00:19:38,166
-[alarm blaring]
-[man on PA] Shelter in place.

346
00:19:39,416 --> 00:19:41,041
Shelter in place.

347
00:19:42,250 --> 00:19:43,958
Shelter in place.

348
00:19:45,375 --> 00:19:47,208
Shelter in place.

349
00:19:48,166 --> 00:19:50,666
-[door opens]
-Sir, the missile field is clear.

350
00:19:50,750 --> 00:19:51,583
[Gonzalez] Copy.

351
00:19:51,666 --> 00:19:54,541
Target is coming into
the intercept window in three,

352
00:19:55,208 --> 00:19:57,250
two, one.

353
00:19:57,916 --> 00:19:59,791
-Activate launch.
-[woman] Launch activated.

354
00:20:14,083 --> 00:20:16,083
[indistinct chatter]

355
00:20:16,791 --> 00:20:18,583
[keyboard clacking]

356
00:20:18,666 --> 00:20:20,958
GBI2 and GBI4 are airborne.

357
00:20:21,041 --> 00:20:24,833
EKV release in 3 minutes 17 seconds.
Stand by for course adjustment.

358
00:20:24,916 --> 00:20:28,291
[President] Is there anyone that can
do better than shot-in-the-dark guesses?

359
00:20:28,375 --> 00:20:31,125
We're not handicapping
the fucking Army-Navy game.

360
00:20:31,208 --> 00:20:34,458
-[man] Uh, Mr. President?
-[President] Yes. Who's that?

361
00:20:34,958 --> 00:20:37,208
This is Jake Baerington, sir.

362
00:20:37,291 --> 00:20:41,750
Uh, we actually met briefly
before the, uh, G8 last year.

363
00:20:42,833 --> 00:20:43,791
Uh…

364
00:20:45,208 --> 00:20:47,833
If someone could…
If… if we could get Anna Park.

365
00:20:47,916 --> 00:20:50,583
She's the national intelligence officer
for the DPRK.

366
00:20:50,666 --> 00:20:54,166
She'll have a more informed view on
North Korean intentions and capabilities.

367
00:20:54,250 --> 00:20:56,125
[President] Okay, so how do I talk to her?

368
00:20:56,208 --> 00:20:58,083
Ma'am, I got FEMA operations on line one.

369
00:20:58,666 --> 00:20:59,958
FEMA? Now?

370
00:21:00,041 --> 00:21:02,666
[man] I'm going to find out.
Yeah. I'm sorry.

371
00:21:02,750 --> 00:21:04,208
[woman] Have you seen this?

372
00:21:04,291 --> 00:21:05,833
[indistinct chatter]

373
00:21:05,916 --> 00:21:07,000
[Rogers] Excuse me.

374
00:21:10,333 --> 00:21:11,500
Uh…

375
00:21:12,166 --> 00:21:15,166
-The whizzer's on.
-I couldn't connect it to your office.

376
00:21:15,666 --> 00:21:19,916
This is, uh, Cathy Rogers with the Office
of National Continuity Programs.

377
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:23,041
I'm trying to find someone
who can tell me what the hell is going on.

378
00:21:23,125 --> 00:21:24,166
[Olivia] How so?

379
00:21:25,166 --> 00:21:29,458
Well, we received instructions to initiate
our Joint Emergency Evacuation Plan.

380
00:21:29,541 --> 00:21:30,375
[Olivia] Right. And?

381
00:21:30,458 --> 00:21:33,208
And, what, you expect the speaker
of the house to make a run for it

382
00:21:33,291 --> 00:21:34,958
without having a few questions first?

383
00:21:35,041 --> 00:21:37,208
[Olivia] No, I don't know
what the speaker of the house--

384
00:21:37,291 --> 00:21:40,625
Are you telling me
we're at war all of a sudden?

385
00:21:42,125 --> 00:21:43,166
With who?

386
00:21:43,250 --> 00:21:46,416
[Olivia] The only thing I can do,
I can confirm the JEEP order's authentic.

387
00:21:46,500 --> 00:21:48,625
-Thank you.
-[man] Admiral Miller?

388
00:21:48,708 --> 00:21:51,208
-That's me.
-We need to move you to the PEOC, sir.

389
00:21:52,375 --> 00:21:56,666
Okay, well, we all just can't leave.
We need to make an orderly transition.

390
00:21:56,750 --> 00:21:58,750
Get the flyaway team to Raven Rock.

391
00:21:58,833 --> 00:22:01,583
Not everyone. Just you,
Gordon, Caldwell, and Stern.

392
00:22:01,666 --> 00:22:03,583
Those are the names I have
on the COG list.

393
00:22:04,291 --> 00:22:05,166
[Olivia] Okay.

394
00:22:05,250 --> 00:22:09,250
One moment.
Uh, I mean, this is ridiculous.

395
00:22:09,333 --> 00:22:10,333
It's…

396
00:22:11,666 --> 00:22:13,500
Okay. Liv.

397
00:22:14,250 --> 00:22:16,125
-Yep.
-[Miller] Everyone back to it.

398
00:22:19,291 --> 00:22:20,500
You get off?

399
00:22:20,583 --> 00:22:21,625
You should go.

400
00:22:22,666 --> 00:22:24,375
-Me? No.
-Yes. Just in case.

401
00:22:24,458 --> 00:22:26,291
Come on. That's not how this works.

402
00:22:26,791 --> 00:22:30,375
No, the president's gonna call the bunker.
He's gonna expect you to answer.

403
00:22:30,458 --> 00:22:32,958
He can't pick me out of a lineup. Come on.

404
00:22:33,625 --> 00:22:36,750
Besides, GBI's gonna
take this thing right out, right?

405
00:22:36,833 --> 00:22:38,166
If it's even real.

406
00:22:38,916 --> 00:22:39,833
[sighs]

407
00:22:39,916 --> 00:22:43,708
Hey, didn't the Soviets
mistake a flock of birds for ICBMs once?

408
00:22:43,791 --> 00:22:44,916
The sun.

409
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:48,875
'83. High-altitude clouds.

410
00:22:50,041 --> 00:22:52,166
-It's a sunny day, sir.
-[man] Sir.

411
00:22:53,250 --> 00:22:55,625
I have instructions
to physically escort you.

412
00:22:56,125 --> 00:22:57,875
[Olivia] I've got it, okay?

413
00:22:57,958 --> 00:22:58,958
[man] Come.

414
00:23:00,291 --> 00:23:01,750
[Davis sighs]

415
00:23:01,833 --> 00:23:03,208
[Miller] Gordon, let's go.

416
00:23:03,291 --> 00:23:04,375
Yes, sir.

417
00:23:06,791 --> 00:23:07,875
[whispers] Do your thing.

418
00:23:15,291 --> 00:23:17,958
[Olivia] Right.
Everyone, let's stay focused.

419
00:23:18,750 --> 00:23:19,875
Let's do what…

420
00:23:22,041 --> 00:23:25,000
what we do best, right?
President still needs us.

421
00:23:28,625 --> 00:23:29,458
[door opens]

422
00:23:30,750 --> 00:23:34,458
Hey, buddy. Can you hold tight
for just a second? Just…

423
00:23:34,541 --> 00:23:36,750
[overlapping chatter]

424
00:23:36,833 --> 00:23:37,708
Hey.

425
00:23:38,208 --> 00:23:39,666
-Hi. Me again.
-[woman] I'm so sorry.

426
00:23:39,750 --> 00:23:41,208
-We're so busy today.
-[man] I get it.

427
00:23:44,166 --> 00:23:45,958
[line ringing]

428
00:23:46,041 --> 00:23:46,916
Come on.

429
00:23:47,416 --> 00:23:49,083
-[phone buzzing]
-[man] Sorry.

430
00:23:49,166 --> 00:23:51,000
Uh, if the doctor can't see him today,

431
00:23:51,083 --> 00:23:53,666
can he just write him a prescription
or something like that?

432
00:23:54,666 --> 00:23:56,125
[woman] I'll have to ask.

433
00:23:58,458 --> 00:24:00,500
[tuts] Fuck.

434
00:24:01,750 --> 00:24:02,958
[sighs]

435
00:24:04,666 --> 00:24:05,500
Shit.

436
00:24:18,958 --> 00:24:20,833
[line ringing]

437
00:24:20,916 --> 00:24:23,166
Hey, hon. Um…

438
00:24:23,250 --> 00:24:24,875
Is anything going on up there?

439
00:24:25,666 --> 00:24:29,083
I… I don't know. Anything… unusual.

440
00:24:31,125 --> 00:24:32,958
-[alarm blaring]
-[man on PA] Shelter in place.

441
00:24:33,041 --> 00:24:34,291
Shelter in place.

442
00:24:34,375 --> 00:24:37,458
-[man] Stand by EKV release.
-What the fuck is going on, sir?

443
00:24:37,541 --> 00:24:39,625
[Gonzalez] You saw what happened.
We launched our GBIs.

444
00:24:39,708 --> 00:24:42,041
-Your ass should be in the bunkers.
-Yes, sir.

445
00:24:42,666 --> 00:24:44,000
EKV status?

446
00:24:44,791 --> 00:24:47,625
-Bring up the space-based kill assessment.
-Stand by.

447
00:24:48,125 --> 00:24:51,708
Three, two, one,

448
00:24:52,208 --> 00:24:53,125
release.

449
00:24:56,250 --> 00:24:57,958
First EKV released.

450
00:24:58,041 --> 00:25:00,833
Velocity ten kilometers per second.
Closing in on target.

451
00:25:04,500 --> 00:25:07,791
Second EKV has failed to separate.

452
00:25:13,875 --> 00:25:15,708
I'm sure it is a mistake, Mr. Leader,

453
00:25:15,791 --> 00:25:20,208
and we'll turn you around right away
as soon as we confirm that.

454
00:25:20,291 --> 00:25:21,791
It didn't… it didn't work.

455
00:25:22,416 --> 00:25:23,375
Failed.

456
00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:26,208
-One EKV left.
-[man] What's the status of the GBIs?

457
00:25:26,291 --> 00:25:27,875
[man 2] Second EKV failed to launch.

458
00:25:27,958 --> 00:25:31,583
-The first EKV is currently still inbound.
-Why don't we launch more?

459
00:25:32,125 --> 00:25:35,000
We have fewer than 50 GBIs
in our entire arsenal.

460
00:25:35,083 --> 00:25:37,208
We're gonna need them
if they fire more missiles at us.

461
00:25:37,291 --> 00:25:39,750
If someone fires more,
aren't we all fucked anyway?

462
00:25:40,250 --> 00:25:43,916
The kinetic energy of one single EKV
colliding with an incoming warhead,

463
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:46,291
it's over 100 million joules.

464
00:25:46,375 --> 00:25:47,875
-It'll vaporize it.
-Yeah.

465
00:25:48,875 --> 00:25:51,291
This is gonna be over in a minute, right?

466
00:25:52,291 --> 00:25:54,708
End of our shift,
we're gonna be on our way home. You…

467
00:25:54,791 --> 00:25:58,166
Look at me. You're gonna have a stop
at that little jewelry store, right?

468
00:25:58,666 --> 00:26:01,166
When you look back at this drama,
what, this is gonna be

469
00:26:01,250 --> 00:26:03,958
the second most exciting thing
that happened to you today.

470
00:26:05,666 --> 00:26:06,666
Right?

471
00:26:07,708 --> 00:26:08,708
[Davis] Right.

472
00:26:09,208 --> 00:26:12,125
-[emergency vehicle sirens blaring]
-[helicopter whirring]

473
00:26:12,875 --> 00:26:14,958
[phone ringing]

474
00:26:15,541 --> 00:26:16,541
Yeah.

475
00:26:18,958 --> 00:26:22,958
Uh, the senator just got up and left
in the middle of the hearing?

476
00:26:23,750 --> 00:26:26,250
-[man] EKV adjusting course.
-[woman] Twenty-one seconds.

477
00:26:30,791 --> 00:26:32,125
You okay, Sergeant?

478
00:26:34,166 --> 00:26:35,875
[Olivia] Put up STRATCOM's audio.

479
00:26:38,916 --> 00:26:40,250
[woman] Ten seconds.

480
00:26:40,833 --> 00:26:41,833
Nine.

481
00:26:42,750 --> 00:26:45,291
-Eight. Seven.
-Listen, before, with the chips--

482
00:26:45,375 --> 00:26:47,416
-We're good, man. I'm a slob.
-[woman] Six. Five.

483
00:26:47,500 --> 00:26:49,791
To hell with her.
Shouldn't have left it like that.

484
00:26:50,375 --> 00:26:51,375
Three.

485
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:52,916
Two.

486
00:26:53,791 --> 00:26:54,791
One.

487
00:26:56,416 --> 00:26:58,666
[computer beeping]

488
00:27:03,833 --> 00:27:05,125
[Gonzalez] Confirm impact.

489
00:27:08,458 --> 00:27:10,583
-Confirm impact.
-[man] Stand by. Confirming.

490
00:27:11,083 --> 00:27:12,083
Hold.

491
00:27:15,583 --> 00:27:17,375
-Come on. What are you waiting for?
-I just…

492
00:27:20,083 --> 00:27:21,166
It's negative.

493
00:27:22,958 --> 00:27:23,958
[man 2] Oh shit.

494
00:27:24,666 --> 00:27:25,875
Fuck.

495
00:27:26,416 --> 00:27:27,333
[man 3] I, uh…

496
00:27:27,416 --> 00:27:30,041
-Yes, negative impact.
-[man 3] Negative impact.

497
00:27:30,625 --> 00:27:32,291
Object remains inbound.

498
00:27:32,375 --> 00:27:33,916
[tapping nervously]

499
00:27:35,875 --> 00:27:36,958
[scoffs]

500
00:27:37,833 --> 00:27:38,916
[chokes]

501
00:27:40,291 --> 00:27:41,875
[man] We did everything right, right?

502
00:27:45,208 --> 00:27:46,208
Right?

503
00:27:47,500 --> 00:27:50,000
We did every fucking thing right.

504
00:27:50,583 --> 00:27:53,625
Mr. President, confirming DEFCON 1, sir.

505
00:27:53,708 --> 00:27:54,750
[man] Oh my God.

506
00:27:55,291 --> 00:27:57,875
[woman] Oh Jesus. We just went DEFCON 1.

507
00:27:57,958 --> 00:27:59,208
[man] Okay.

508
00:27:59,291 --> 00:28:00,458
[President] Confirming.

509
00:28:02,458 --> 00:28:04,583
-[man 2] Okay.
-[woman 2] Negative impact.

510
00:28:04,666 --> 00:28:06,833
[indistinct chatter over radio]

511
00:28:07,958 --> 00:28:11,125
[man] Major, confirm the release
of two additional GBIs to intercept.

512
00:28:12,708 --> 00:28:13,791
Major.

513
00:28:15,166 --> 00:28:16,666
Major… Danny.

514
00:28:16,750 --> 00:28:17,583
Danny?

515
00:28:18,583 --> 00:28:20,416
Danny, we gotta launch again, right?

516
00:28:24,333 --> 00:28:26,375
Pull it up. Come on. Come on. Pull it up.

517
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:34,250
Target is past apogee
and entering terminal phase, sir.

518
00:28:35,541 --> 00:28:37,958
I… I have
an updated flight trajectory, sir.

519
00:28:39,708 --> 00:28:40,708
Chicago.

520
00:28:44,541 --> 00:28:46,166
[President] Why the hell is that book out?

521
00:28:46,250 --> 00:28:49,458
[Brady] Mr. President, significant time
and expertise were devoted

522
00:28:49,541 --> 00:28:51,083
to designing these options.

523
00:28:51,166 --> 00:28:54,458
You'll find a range,
select, limited, and major,

524
00:28:54,541 --> 00:28:57,708
depending on the scale of the response
you feel is warranted.

525
00:28:57,791 --> 00:29:00,916
I suggest you allow
Lieutenant Commander Reeves to brief you.

526
00:29:01,416 --> 00:29:02,416
Fuck.

527
00:29:06,583 --> 00:29:07,583
Thank you.

528
00:29:09,958 --> 00:29:13,750
Most of the Iron Gate list is on the move,
but they are not happy.

529
00:29:13,833 --> 00:29:14,833
Any word?

530
00:29:16,916 --> 00:29:17,750
Mike.

531
00:29:18,250 --> 00:29:21,625
What's our casualty estimate
for a nuclear strike on Chicago?

532
00:29:21,708 --> 00:29:22,708
What?

533
00:29:23,833 --> 00:29:26,041
Seriously? This is starting
to piss me off.

534
00:29:26,125 --> 00:29:27,666
-They should give more--
-Goddamn it.

535
00:29:28,166 --> 00:29:29,291
What is it, Cathy?

536
00:29:29,791 --> 00:29:33,458
Ten million, primary.
Another 10% downwind.

537
00:29:37,625 --> 00:29:39,625
[foreboding music playing]

538
00:29:40,666 --> 00:29:43,416
[keyboard clacking]

539
00:29:58,583 --> 00:30:00,416
What are you doing? Hey.

540
00:30:03,708 --> 00:30:04,791
[door opens]

541
00:30:13,125 --> 00:30:15,125
[gagging]

542
00:30:20,291 --> 00:30:22,375
Russia, finally.
Foreign minister for the president.

543
00:30:22,458 --> 00:30:23,333
[Olivia] Great.

544
00:30:24,333 --> 00:30:27,625
Sir, this is Captain Olivia Walker,
ranking officer on duty.

545
00:30:28,750 --> 00:30:30,625
I will connect you with the president.

546
00:30:30,708 --> 00:30:33,166
-I can't… I can't merge the calls.
-What? What do you mean?

547
00:30:33,250 --> 00:30:35,250
POTUS is on the NC3.
Russia's on the hotline.

548
00:30:35,333 --> 00:30:38,166
-He'd drop off, then we'd dial him in.
-So? Can you do that?

549
00:30:38,250 --> 00:30:41,375
We risk losing contact. He's on the move.
Plus the time it takes.

550
00:30:41,458 --> 00:30:44,666
STRATCOM is asking for
our launch instructions for retaliation.

551
00:30:45,166 --> 00:30:46,875
-Like, right now.
-[Olivia] Okay. All right.

552
00:30:48,916 --> 00:30:51,333
Sir, we're having technical issues
with the president.

553
00:30:51,416 --> 00:30:54,125
I'm gonna get you someone
who can speak for him right now.

554
00:30:54,208 --> 00:30:55,083
Please hold.

555
00:30:55,583 --> 00:30:58,666
Billy, I want you to go and get my cell.
Get yours too.

556
00:30:59,166 --> 00:31:00,375
-[Davis] Ma'am.
-Just go.

557
00:31:00,458 --> 00:31:01,416
Why are we launching?

558
00:31:01,500 --> 00:31:03,708
[Olivia] Quickly. I'm asking you.
I can handle this.

559
00:31:05,500 --> 00:31:07,416
[man] Not sure. You'll have to try DOD.

560
00:31:07,500 --> 00:31:10,000
Who's in charge there? Can you put him on?

561
00:31:10,083 --> 00:31:12,666
Gail, can you monitor the NSCC?

562
00:31:13,958 --> 00:31:16,000
[foreboding music playing]

563
00:31:42,125 --> 00:31:43,208
[door closes]

564
00:31:44,416 --> 00:31:45,583
[door opens]

565
00:31:51,916 --> 00:31:52,958
[exhales sharply]

566
00:31:54,333 --> 00:31:55,500
[exhales slowly]

567
00:32:04,083 --> 00:32:05,333
[breathing deeply]

-[sniffles]
-[line ringing]

569
00:32:17,541 --> 00:32:20,208
-[woman] Hello?
-Hey, Mom. Um…

570
00:32:20,708 --> 00:32:22,458
Yeah, no, everything's, uh…

571
00:32:26,291 --> 00:32:28,875
Yeah, no, no, I'm good.
I promise you I am…

572
00:32:29,375 --> 00:32:30,458
I'm doing great.

573
00:32:32,041 --> 00:32:33,625
Okay. [chuckles]

574
00:32:35,916 --> 00:32:37,291
Yeah, no, I'm, uh…

575
00:32:37,791 --> 00:32:39,583
Yeah, I'm working hard. I'm

576
00:32:40,958 --> 00:32:42,208
doing my best.

577
00:32:47,125 --> 00:32:48,125
Yeah.

578
00:32:50,208 --> 00:32:52,958
No, I just… I just wanted to call you
and, you know,

579
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:55,166
tell you I love you.

580
00:32:55,916 --> 00:32:56,791
[woman] Aw.

581
00:33:02,333 --> 00:33:04,000
All right. I'll… I'll call you later. Um…

582
00:33:04,083 --> 00:33:06,250
Yeah, I gotta go.
They're calling me right now.

583
00:33:09,208 --> 00:33:11,208
[foreboding music continues]

584
00:33:21,333 --> 00:33:22,625
[kids laughing]

585
00:33:22,708 --> 00:33:25,125
[man] They've got five minutes.
How far is anyone gonna get?

586
00:33:25,208 --> 00:33:27,041
[man 2] They can
at least shelter in place.

587
00:33:27,125 --> 00:33:29,083
Do you think hiding under desks
is gonna help them?

588
00:33:29,166 --> 00:33:31,708
There's a car outside.
Driver says you're on some kind of list.

589
00:33:31,791 --> 00:33:33,458
-"Hasty Access."
-[man] Who's downstairs?

590
00:33:33,541 --> 00:33:34,916
Some guy's here to take Cathy.

591
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:36,791
[indistinct chatter]

592
00:33:37,500 --> 00:33:39,500
-I'm a DE, Mike.
-[woman] What does that mean?

593
00:33:41,625 --> 00:33:43,250
Designated evacuee.

594
00:33:44,125 --> 00:33:46,208
It means
she gets to ride this out at Raven Rock.

595
00:33:46,291 --> 00:33:48,750
You chose me as your alternate.

596
00:33:49,666 --> 00:33:52,875
There's no threat to DC. There might not
even be a threat to Chicago.

597
00:33:52,958 --> 00:33:54,708
[woman] She's barely done her job
for a month.

598
00:33:55,541 --> 00:33:57,250
Why does she get to be rescued?

599
00:34:00,875 --> 00:34:01,750
[Davis] Come on.

600
00:34:02,250 --> 00:34:03,833
[breathing shakily]

601
00:34:03,916 --> 00:34:06,375
-[man] He's checking in.
-I'll update you when we get there.

602
00:34:06,458 --> 00:34:08,083
[man] Yeah. Come on. We're moving out.

603
00:34:08,666 --> 00:34:10,666
[indistinct chatter]

604
00:34:12,583 --> 00:34:14,916
Hey, what's going on up there?
Where's everyone going?

605
00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:18,083
[man 2] Try his secretary! Somebody!
Secretary, I don't give a…

606
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:20,000
Go home.

607
00:34:20,750 --> 00:34:22,750
[indistinct yelling in background]

608
00:34:31,291 --> 00:34:33,583
[sighs]

609
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:43,541
[man] Beijing Station reports
the PSC is convening an emergency session.

610
00:34:44,166 --> 00:34:46,416
Yes. Yes,
I can get that for you right away.

611
00:34:46,500 --> 00:34:48,083
[phone ringing]

612
00:34:48,166 --> 00:34:51,208
-[Olivia] Situation Room. Walker.
-[Baerington] Put me back on the NSCC.

613
00:34:51,291 --> 00:34:52,958
-Is it Russia's?
-[Baerington] He denied it.

614
00:34:53,041 --> 00:34:55,958
Said it might be Pyongyang. But he swears
they had nothing to do with it.

615
00:34:56,041 --> 00:34:57,000
Why are they mobilizing?

616
00:34:57,083 --> 00:34:58,958
[Baerington] They're seeing
our B-2s go airborne.

617
00:34:59,041 --> 00:35:01,125
Now put me back on the fucking conference.

618
00:35:07,958 --> 00:35:09,250
[overlapping chatter]

619
00:35:10,250 --> 00:35:13,250
Look. Look, as I told you,
I am not fully briefed yet,

620
00:35:13,333 --> 00:35:15,625
but I promise
I am doing my best to chase it down.

621
00:35:15,708 --> 00:35:17,166
You don't know why he bailed?

622
00:35:17,250 --> 00:35:19,916
-[man] Is the president in Washington?
-[press secretary] Look, I…

623
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:21,333
[man 2] A military hero…

624
00:35:21,416 --> 00:35:22,791
Where should we go?

625
00:35:22,875 --> 00:35:25,458
The American public deserves
to know what's happening.

626
00:35:25,541 --> 00:35:27,375
Excuse me.
Sorry. Do you know what's going on?

627
00:35:27,458 --> 00:35:28,625
You should leave if you can.

628
00:35:28,708 --> 00:35:29,791
[woman] Are the American--

629
00:35:29,875 --> 00:35:31,291
-Sorry.
-[woman] Where are you going?

630
00:35:31,375 --> 00:35:32,875
What is happening?

631
00:35:32,958 --> 00:35:34,958
-[all clamoring]
-[helicopter whirring]

632
00:35:38,041 --> 00:35:43,000
Yes, we've got Governor on line two,
and we're merging the calls now.

633
00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:45,291
Thank you for your patience.

634
00:35:45,375 --> 00:35:47,125
[foreboding music playing]

635
00:35:51,500 --> 00:35:54,125
Raven Rock is asking for
names and serial numbers

636
00:35:54,208 --> 00:35:55,791
of everyone still here on duty.

637
00:35:55,875 --> 00:35:57,875
Socials for civilians in case…

638
00:35:58,916 --> 00:36:02,583
If it's just Chicago, it's just Chicago,
but if we fire back…

639
00:36:02,666 --> 00:36:04,083
They need a dead list.

640
00:36:06,250 --> 00:36:07,416
Thanks.

641
00:36:07,500 --> 00:36:08,791

645
00:36:30,375 --> 00:36:33,166
[woman] Yes.
We have the governor on the line.

646
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:38,000
Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on.

647
00:36:38,916 --> 00:36:39,750
Come on.

648
00:36:40,250 --> 00:36:42,458
All right, Liam. Watch your head, bud.
Watch your--

649
00:36:42,541 --> 00:36:44,541
-I wanna do it by myself.
-[phone buzzing]

650
00:36:44,625 --> 00:36:46,625
Okay. Okay.

651
00:36:48,750 --> 00:36:49,875
-Hey.
-[Olivia] Listen to me.

652
00:36:49,958 --> 00:36:52,708
Get Liam, get in the car,
and just start driving.

653
00:36:52,791 --> 00:36:54,375
[man] Where? What are you talking about?

654
00:36:54,458 --> 00:36:58,791
West. Go west. Go west as fast as you can.
Get away from any urban centers.

655
00:36:58,875 --> 00:37:00,958
-Liv, what the fuck? What's going on?
-[Olivia] Listen.

656
00:37:01,041 --> 00:37:05,375
I'll call you. I love you. I love you.
Can you kiss Liam for me? Just kiss him.

657
00:37:06,083 --> 00:37:07,125
Bye, bye, bye.

658
00:37:08,541 --> 00:37:09,708

[overlapping chatter]

660
00:37:13,750 --> 00:37:14,583
Okay.

-Yes. Yes.

[foreboding music playing]

667
00:38:12,750 --> 00:38:15,750
-[man] Sir, your nuclear forces are ready.
-They'll wait, right?

668
00:38:16,916 --> 00:38:19,083
To see what happens before they retaliate.

669
00:38:20,125 --> 00:38:21,708
[man] What if he doesn't come back on?

670
00:38:23,375 --> 00:38:24,791
[Brady] Decapitation event.

671
00:38:24,875 --> 00:38:26,333
We find the vice president…

672
00:38:27,250 --> 00:38:31,291
-Any chance this lands in Lake Michigan?
-A lot of times, they don't even detonate.

673
00:38:31,375 --> 00:38:32,791
[President] All right, I'm here.

674
00:38:33,375 --> 00:38:35,750
-[man 2] You'll need your SAS card, sir.
-[President] Oh.

675
00:38:37,333 --> 00:38:38,583
It's in here somewhere.

676
00:38:39,750 --> 00:38:40,666
Right.

677
00:38:41,166 --> 00:38:43,291
Reminds me of when I was in college.

678
00:38:46,375 --> 00:38:48,250
[man 2] You just, uh, read it aloud.

679
00:38:49,083 --> 00:38:49,958
Hey.

680
00:38:51,125 --> 00:38:53,833
-[President] November, Delta, Oscar.
-Come here.

681
00:38:54,416 --> 00:38:57,208
-[President] One, one, one, seven.
-[Olivia] It's okay.

682
00:38:57,291 --> 00:38:59,750
[Brady] November, Delta, Oscar.

683
00:38:59,833 --> 00:39:03,083
One, one, one, seven.

684
00:39:04,833 --> 00:39:07,208
National command authority confirmed.

685
00:39:08,833 --> 00:39:10,833
Your orders, Mr. President?

686
00:39:12,666 --> 00:39:14,666
[suspenseful music playing]

687
00:39:44,916 --> 00:39:46,875
[helicopter whirring]

688
00:39:59,833 --> 00:40:01,833
[jets passing]

689
00:40:20,208 --> 00:40:22,208
[suspenseful music continues]

690
00:40:35,833 --> 00:40:37,166
-[Brady] Steve.
-General.

691
00:40:37,250 --> 00:40:41,083
Goddamn! Lindor is a great shortstop, man.

692
00:40:41,166 --> 00:40:43,875
Tell me you watched
that All-Star game, please.

693
00:40:43,958 --> 00:40:45,666
Let your boys stay up that late?

694
00:40:46,583 --> 00:40:49,583
-Yours give you a choice?
-No. No, they do not.

695
00:40:49,666 --> 00:40:51,250
[yelling]

696
00:40:54,750 --> 00:40:55,791
[horse neighs]

697
00:40:55,875 --> 00:40:57,083
[man] Call to arms!

698
00:40:57,708 --> 00:40:58,833
Fire!

699
00:41:00,958 --> 00:41:02,375
[indistinct chatter]

700
00:41:04,083 --> 00:41:05,958
-[man] Ready!
-[gunshots]

701
00:41:06,041 --> 00:41:07,375
[man] Fire at will!

702
00:41:07,458 --> 00:41:09,041
[horse neighs]

703
00:41:12,833 --> 00:41:14,250
[gunshots]

704
00:41:24,833 --> 00:41:26,625
-This is awesome.
-Uh-huh.

705
00:41:26,708 --> 00:41:31,208
Well, 50,000 deaths in three days.
Awesome is one word.

706
00:41:31,291 --> 00:41:32,208
[gunshots]

707
00:41:41,125 --> 00:41:43,125
[foreboding music playing]

708
00:41:55,625 --> 00:41:58,333
[man over PA] This is the DDO
at the National Military Command Center

709
00:41:58,416 --> 00:42:01,791
with a top-secret SCI
national security conference

710
00:42:01,875 --> 00:42:03,750
for missile launch indications.

711
00:42:03,833 --> 00:42:05,958
All conferees, please stand by.

712
00:42:17,541 --> 00:42:18,875
J3, are you tracking this?

713
00:42:18,958 --> 00:42:21,541
I don't remember anything
from the ops and intel briefing.

714
00:42:21,625 --> 00:42:24,000
It's news to me, Dan. I'll look into it.

715
00:42:37,666 --> 00:42:40,041
-Did you see that?
-[man 2] On it.

716
00:42:41,333 --> 00:42:44,666
[man 3] EDBC Whisper. Tracking
inbound ICBM in the Pacific theater.

717
00:42:45,500 --> 00:42:47,125
Attention on deck.

718
00:42:48,916 --> 00:42:50,875
[Brady] Morning, everybody.
Please take your seats.

719
00:42:50,958 --> 00:42:53,666
-[man 4] Morning, sir.
-[Brady] What's the situation?

720
00:42:54,791 --> 00:42:57,125
Sir, missile-launch indications
in the Pacific theater.

721
00:42:57,208 --> 00:42:59,708
The DDO's standing up
a national security conference.

722
00:43:00,958 --> 00:43:03,625
[man 4] Sir, no update yet,
but I'm hoping to have one soon.

723
00:43:03,708 --> 00:43:05,708
[indistinct chatter]

724
00:43:08,166 --> 00:43:10,791
-Did you see that ball game last night?
-Yes, sir.

725
00:43:11,958 --> 00:43:13,500
You believe that Lindor?

726
00:43:14,041 --> 00:43:15,083
-I mean…
-Impressive.

727
00:43:15,166 --> 00:43:17,916
[chuckles] He is unbelievable.

728
00:43:21,583 --> 00:43:23,208
[woman] Yep, it's all good news.

729
00:43:28,458 --> 00:43:29,458
Okay.

730
00:43:30,875 --> 00:43:32,083
Okay, I'll tell him.

731
00:43:33,708 --> 00:43:34,708
Love you.

732
00:43:37,458 --> 00:43:40,166
My mom wants to know
if you're going to Helsinki next week.

733
00:43:40,250 --> 00:43:41,458
She must have…

734
00:43:42,208 --> 00:43:44,208
must have seen it
on The View or something.

735
00:43:44,708 --> 00:43:46,291
No. No, I won't be there,

736
00:43:46,375 --> 00:43:48,833
but the briefing I wrote has
a really nice first-class seat,

737
00:43:48,916 --> 00:43:49,750
so that's great.

738
00:43:49,833 --> 00:43:52,333
[woman] If you're really not that happy,
I can talk to Marty.

739
00:43:52,416 --> 00:43:55,458
[man] No, don't talk to Marty.
Staff director's a lateral move.

740
00:43:55,541 --> 00:43:59,083
-I can't go back to the Hill. It's a, uh…
-[woman] Hmm.

741
00:43:59,166 --> 00:44:01,291
-It's just…
-[woman] It's what?

742
00:44:02,875 --> 00:44:05,208
-It's a bad idea…
-[woman] Mmm.

743
00:44:05,750 --> 00:44:09,666
…to be working in such close proximity
to my radiant wife.

744
00:44:09,750 --> 00:44:13,500
You think that she'll inherit
your capacity for ass-kissing bullshit?

745
00:44:13,583 --> 00:44:15,916
-[phone ringing]
-[man] Sorry.

746
00:44:16,750 --> 00:44:18,583
Hey, it… uh, it's Jake.

747
00:44:21,416 --> 00:44:22,416
Yeah.

748
00:44:26,750 --> 00:44:27,625
Bye.

749
00:44:33,666 --> 00:44:37,458
[woman] The DSP satellite system
is generally reliable,

750
00:44:37,541 --> 00:44:41,416
but that will obviously be a focus
of our after-action.

751
00:44:41,500 --> 00:44:43,666
So the launch could've been
land or sea-based?

752
00:44:43,750 --> 00:44:46,291
No, the DPRK don't have
an SSBN capability.

753
00:44:46,375 --> 00:44:47,208
That we know of.

754
00:44:47,291 --> 00:44:49,750
[Brendell] Beijing's been wanting
to test their Jin-class boats.

755
00:44:49,833 --> 00:44:50,708
Eight sugars, please.

756
00:44:50,791 --> 00:44:52,916
[man] And we've been tracking
three Borei-class subs

757
00:44:53,000 --> 00:44:55,125
out of Vladivostok since last week.

758
00:44:55,208 --> 00:44:57,208
On top of their push into the Atlantic,

759
00:44:57,291 --> 00:44:59,208
I can't see 'em risking more sanctions.

760
00:44:59,291 --> 00:45:01,875
[Baerington] Uh, sir,
on the, uh, North Korean front--

761
00:45:01,958 --> 00:45:04,625
-Who is that?
-Jake Baerington, sir.

762
00:45:04,708 --> 00:45:06,041
Dick Holland's deputy.

763
00:45:06,125 --> 00:45:08,125
There's a reason
I didn't join the Navy, son.

764
00:45:08,208 --> 00:45:10,250
All that bouncing around's
making me seasick.

765
00:45:10,333 --> 00:45:13,041
I'm sorry, sir. I just, um…
I'm almost at the White House.

766
00:45:13,125 --> 00:45:14,458
I just wanted to say,

767
00:45:15,125 --> 00:45:18,333
well, we do know that the KPA
have been chasing sub capabilities,

768
00:45:18,416 --> 00:45:21,916
okay, and previous leaps
in booster design and TELs

769
00:45:22,000 --> 00:45:23,750
have gone undetected till rollout.

770
00:45:23,833 --> 00:45:25,666
[Brendell] Mr. Baerington?
All due respect--

771
00:45:25,750 --> 00:45:26,958
-[Brady] Thank you.
-Hello?

772
00:45:27,541 --> 00:45:28,625
Mr. Baerington?

773
00:45:29,916 --> 00:45:31,500
Did we lose him?

774
00:45:31,583 --> 00:45:32,791
Mr. Baerington?

775
00:45:32,875 --> 00:45:34,000
Hello? Sir?

776
00:45:37,041 --> 00:45:37,958
Fuck.

777
00:45:39,875 --> 00:45:40,875
Sir.

778
00:45:42,208 --> 00:45:44,583
I do think we need to upgrade
our salvage operations.

779
00:45:44,666 --> 00:45:47,583
We're leaving potentially valuable
intelligence on the ocean floor--

780
00:45:47,666 --> 00:45:48,666
Sir.

781
00:45:49,166 --> 00:45:51,375
Uh, excuse me a moment. What?

782
00:45:55,458 --> 00:45:56,750
No way that's right.

783
00:45:57,416 --> 00:45:58,791
NORTHCOM confirms.

784
00:45:59,291 --> 00:46:01,291
Fort Greely's preparing to launch GBIs.

785
00:46:01,375 --> 00:46:04,333
That's right, Tony.
I've authorized weapons-release authority.

786
00:46:05,166 --> 00:46:07,333
[foreboding music playing]

787
00:46:13,083 --> 00:46:15,875
Um, sorry about that.
Seems we have an update.

788
00:46:17,541 --> 00:46:21,291
Current velocity indicates
the object will go suborbital.

789
00:46:22,583 --> 00:46:24,375
Current flight trajectory is consistent

790
00:46:24,458 --> 00:46:27,500
with impact somewhere
in the continental United States.

791
00:46:28,875 --> 00:46:30,083
Holy shit.

792
00:46:30,166 --> 00:46:32,125
What's your level of confidence
on that, Tony?

793
00:46:35,166 --> 00:46:36,333
[Steve] It's not an error.

794
00:46:36,416 --> 00:46:39,041
We're tracking it
on multiple radar systems now.

795
00:46:40,250 --> 00:46:44,291
I'm told… Hi, Jerry.
…we have dual phenomenology on the track.

796
00:46:45,125 --> 00:46:46,958
Nineteen minutes to impact.

797
00:46:48,583 --> 00:46:50,541
Confirming DEFCON 2.

798
00:46:50,625 --> 00:46:52,875
[suspenseful music playing]

799
00:46:52,958 --> 00:46:55,083
[Steve] We have a confirmed
hostile launch, everyone.

800
00:46:55,166 --> 00:46:56,666
Initiate phase one.

801
00:46:56,750 --> 00:46:59,375
OPLAN 8044, revision 25.

802
00:46:59,458 --> 00:47:01,583
-Stand by, all commands.
-[woman] Yes, sir.

803
00:47:01,666 --> 00:47:02,791
[man] What is our target?

804
00:47:03,291 --> 00:47:05,333
[man 2] My team's
doing everything they can…

805
00:47:09,500 --> 00:47:11,166
Have you found POTUS yet?

806
00:47:12,958 --> 00:47:15,416
Okay, when you find him, patch him in.
Keep calling.

807
00:47:18,541 --> 00:47:20,541
[man 3] Can I have 15 seconds?

808
00:47:20,625 --> 00:47:22,625
[suspenseful music swells]

809
00:47:26,041 --> 00:47:28,041
[jets passing]

810
00:47:35,375 --> 00:47:38,083
You gonna bring something back
every time we forward deploy?

811
00:47:38,666 --> 00:47:40,250
'Cause you're creating an expectation.

812
00:47:40,333 --> 00:47:42,875
He's three. He has no expectations.

813
00:47:42,958 --> 00:47:43,958
Exactly.

814
00:47:44,791 --> 00:47:47,750
Sometimes he wakes up, Daddy's gone.
Sometimes Daddy's home.

815
00:47:47,833 --> 00:47:51,333
Listen to him, kid.
It's the benefit of two marriages talking.

816
00:47:51,416 --> 00:47:52,833
[man] Third time's the charm.

817
00:47:55,708 --> 00:47:57,625
[Baker] …with no warning whatsoever.

818
00:47:57,708 --> 00:48:00,958
-We need to speak with someone who can--
-[Brady] Of course, Mr. Secretary.

819
00:48:01,041 --> 00:48:02,958
Jake, how's Lily doing?

820
00:48:03,041 --> 00:48:05,416
-Sorry, I'm on a…
-Well, tell her I said hi.

821
00:48:05,500 --> 00:48:07,958
In the meantime,
we've raised our alert status.

822
00:48:08,583 --> 00:48:11,291
After last month's test launch,
we forward-deployed a number of B-2--

823
00:48:11,375 --> 00:48:12,625
[Baerington] Hello? Uh…

824
00:48:12,708 --> 00:48:17,458
Sir, I'm sorry, I think, um…
I think we got disconnected for a minute.

825
00:48:17,541 --> 00:48:19,333
I think we should reconsider that, sir.

826
00:48:19,416 --> 00:48:21,416
Reconsider what exactly?

827
00:48:21,500 --> 00:48:22,375
[Baerington] Well…

828
00:48:22,875 --> 00:48:25,333
By, uh… Go for it.

829
00:48:25,416 --> 00:48:27,500
By moving to DEFCON 2, sir,

830
00:48:27,583 --> 00:48:30,166
we are potentially risking
a spiral of alerts.

831
00:48:30,250 --> 00:48:31,541
[Brady] Spiral of what?

832
00:48:32,166 --> 00:48:34,416
Jake? Where the hell's Dick?

833
00:48:34,500 --> 00:48:36,375
Spiral of alerts, Mr. Secretary.

834
00:48:36,458 --> 00:48:38,625
And, uh, Dick's out of pocket right now.

835
00:48:38,708 --> 00:48:41,583
But… when we increase our readiness--

836
00:48:41,666 --> 00:48:43,416
-[man] Sir.
-Yeah.

837
00:48:43,500 --> 00:48:44,916
…all of our adversaries do the same,

838
00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:49,250
believing we're preparing to take
offensive action ourselves.

839
00:48:49,333 --> 00:48:52,041
Okay, what we need to do,
we need to communicate with them.

840
00:48:52,125 --> 00:48:55,333
-We need to… we need to explain our--
-[Brady] Then communicate.

841
00:48:55,958 --> 00:48:57,375
That's your job, not mine.

842
00:48:58,250 --> 00:49:02,208
You have someone you can call who will
tell us just what the hell's going on?

843
00:49:02,291 --> 00:49:04,000
Don't let us hold you back.

844
00:49:04,083 --> 00:49:06,166
-[man] Sir, put your phone in the tray.
-Just one sec.

845
00:49:06,250 --> 00:49:08,083
-I don't have one sec.
-[Baerington] Yeah.

846
00:49:08,166 --> 00:49:11,375
I'm sorry. Sorry, General.
I… I wasn't talking to you, sir.

847
00:49:11,458 --> 00:49:14,125
Then who in the hell were you talking to?

848
00:49:14,875 --> 00:49:17,000
Do we have an ETA for POTUS yet?

849
00:49:17,083 --> 00:49:18,583
[Brady] I'm told imminent.

850
00:49:18,666 --> 00:49:22,875
[Baker] It occurs to me,
do we have COG responsibility here?

851
00:49:23,583 --> 00:49:26,083
I'll be taking your questions
at the later briefing this morning,

852
00:49:26,166 --> 00:49:28,208
so if you can just hold them until then.

853
00:49:30,166 --> 00:49:31,250
[Baerington] Sorry.

854
00:49:31,333 --> 00:49:33,541
[chuckles] Sorry. Excuse me.

855
00:49:34,916 --> 00:49:36,541
[man] We still waiting on POTUS?

856
00:49:38,458 --> 00:49:39,500
What do you think?

857
00:49:40,541 --> 00:49:41,833
I'd be guessing.

858
00:49:41,916 --> 00:49:43,333
[man 2] Where the hell is POTUS?

859
00:49:43,416 --> 00:49:44,625
North Koreans.

860
00:49:45,916 --> 00:49:47,416
Fuel shortages. Crop failures.

861
00:49:47,500 --> 00:49:49,500
Maybe they're more desperate
than we thought.

862
00:49:50,666 --> 00:49:51,708
[man 2] B-2s are sortieing.

863
00:49:51,791 --> 00:49:54,916
Or it's Moscow, and they want us to think
it's the North Koreans.

864
00:49:56,666 --> 00:49:58,666
Moscow knows we'll retaliate.

865
00:49:58,750 --> 00:49:59,750
Do they?

866
00:50:00,916 --> 00:50:02,791
Assassinating dissidents
wherever they please.

867
00:50:02,875 --> 00:50:05,250
Imprisoning Americans. Ukraine.

868
00:50:05,750 --> 00:50:08,875
And what? We confiscate
a few of their yachts in Saint-Tropez?

869
00:50:10,125 --> 00:50:12,500
A single, unattributed strike

870
00:50:13,000 --> 00:50:14,083
sows chaos,

871
00:50:14,583 --> 00:50:16,000
puts us on our heels,

872
00:50:16,500 --> 00:50:19,750
and it gives them an opportunity
to see if they can get away with worse.

873
00:50:19,833 --> 00:50:21,791
Gives everyone that opportunity.

874
00:50:23,750 --> 00:50:27,833
Or some fucking sub captain woke up,
found out his wife left him, and snapped.

875
00:50:27,916 --> 00:50:29,750
-Yeah.
-Told you I'm guessing.

876
00:50:30,250 --> 00:50:31,083
[man 3] Sir.

877
00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:33,000
Battle gram.

878
00:50:34,333 --> 00:50:36,000
[man 4] Updating our target package.

879
00:50:37,250 --> 00:50:39,625
[man 5] We're still trying
to ascertain that for you, sir.

880
00:50:39,708 --> 00:50:42,208
Greely better not fuck this up. [grunts]

881
00:50:45,000 --> 00:50:46,833
I have an updated impact estimate.

882
00:50:47,333 --> 00:50:48,375
Go ahead, Tony.

883
00:50:50,333 --> 00:50:51,916
[air rushing]

884
00:51:00,416 --> 00:51:02,291
[machine stops]

885
00:51:02,375 --> 00:51:04,375
[helicopter whirring]

886
00:51:08,750 --> 00:51:11,958
-Hey, when are we home again?
-1700 next Tuesday.

887
00:51:12,041 --> 00:51:14,916
You think I can meet this girl
at the Applebee's before they close?

888
00:51:15,000 --> 00:51:18,500
-You take your dates to Applebee's?
-She works there, dumbass.

889
00:51:18,583 --> 00:51:20,708
[alarm blaring]

890
00:51:30,041 --> 00:51:32,125
[foreboding music playing]

891
00:51:33,416 --> 00:51:34,291
[toy squeaks]

892
00:51:39,541 --> 00:51:41,541
[Longmen] Jesus Christ.

893
00:51:42,416 --> 00:51:46,125
This is why we have the GBIs.
No need to panic people.

894
00:51:46,208 --> 00:51:47,833
Did you say Chicago?

895
00:51:47,916 --> 00:51:50,666
Uh, yes. In the medium bucket.

896
00:51:51,916 --> 00:51:53,875
My daughter lives in Chicago.

897
00:51:55,250 --> 00:51:59,708
Sir, our GBIs
will be airborne momentarily.

898
00:51:59,791 --> 00:52:01,083
This is what we do.

899
00:52:02,500 --> 00:52:03,666
Jake, you still there?

900
00:52:03,750 --> 00:52:04,750
Yes, sir.

901
00:52:05,333 --> 00:52:08,500
[Baker] What are the chances this works?
Knocking it down.

902
00:52:09,083 --> 00:52:11,333
-[Baerington] General Brady should answer.
-I'm asking you.

903
00:52:11,416 --> 00:52:13,875
-[Baerington] Yes, but--
-[Baker] I know what he's gonna say.

904
00:52:13,958 --> 00:52:15,416
And I want the truth.

905
00:52:18,208 --> 00:52:20,583
I should stay in my lane, sir,

906
00:52:21,083 --> 00:52:23,916
but… [panting] …honestly…

907
00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:27,625
[Steve] Interceptors have launched.
Everyone, interceptors have launched.

908
00:52:28,333 --> 00:52:31,125
[Baerington] …it depends
on the circumstances.

909
00:52:31,875 --> 00:52:34,583
Okay, when we… when we test…

910
00:52:37,500 --> 00:52:39,125
When we test, we can't control--

911
00:52:39,208 --> 00:52:40,625
Cut the bullshit, damn it!

912
00:52:43,833 --> 00:52:45,750
Once the kill vehicle separates,

913
00:52:45,833 --> 00:52:49,250
our midcourse intercept system
has a success rate of 61%.

914
00:52:53,833 --> 00:52:55,416
So it's a fucking coin toss?

915
00:52:56,250 --> 00:52:58,791
That's what $50 billion buys us?

916
00:52:58,875 --> 00:53:01,291
We are talking about
hitting a bullet with a bullet.

917
00:53:01,791 --> 00:53:04,333
[President] Hello?
Hello? Can anyone hear me?

918
00:53:04,416 --> 00:53:07,041
[Baker] Mr. President,
let's get you up to speed.

919
00:53:07,916 --> 00:53:11,791
[man on PA] Attention on the flight line.
Attention on the flight line.

920
00:53:11,875 --> 00:53:13,875
Ground crew to hangar three.

921
00:53:13,958 --> 00:53:15,875
Prep Ghost 1 for launch.

922
00:53:17,958 --> 00:53:20,166
-This your office?
-Yeah.

923
00:53:20,250 --> 00:53:21,750
I need you to come with me, sir.

924
00:53:24,833 --> 00:53:27,541
[emergency vehicle sirens blaring]

925
00:53:32,583 --> 00:53:34,750
[man on PA] Fuel gauges checked!

926
00:53:35,250 --> 00:53:37,833
-[mechanical whirring]
-[man on PA] Flight controls.

927
00:53:42,750 --> 00:53:43,958
Munitions loaded.

928
00:53:45,708 --> 00:53:48,125
[tense music playing]

929
00:53:53,416 --> 00:53:55,708
[man] Down the hall. Sir, we gotta move.

930
00:53:56,583 --> 00:53:59,333
-[Lily] Sir, is everything okay?
-Gotta get to the elevator.

931
00:53:59,416 --> 00:54:02,208
-Marty, where are you going?
-[man] Sir, we gotta get going now.

932
00:54:02,875 --> 00:54:03,708
Let's go.

933
00:54:09,375 --> 00:54:11,791
[phone ringing]

934
00:54:25,416 --> 00:54:27,416
[foreboding music playing]

935
00:54:41,958 --> 00:54:44,375
-[President] Could be a mistake.
-[man 2] On our end or theirs?

936
00:54:44,458 --> 00:54:45,458
[President] Who are they?

937
00:54:45,541 --> 00:54:48,041
-Deputy NSA arriving.
-This way, sir.

938
00:54:49,208 --> 00:54:50,208
[President] Hold on.

939
00:54:50,291 --> 00:54:54,791
What I'm asking is, what are the odds
this is an intentional strike?

940
00:54:54,875 --> 00:54:57,541
[Longmen] The odds, I'd put them at 75%.

941
00:54:58,125 --> 00:55:00,000
[Rodbell] I'd say 80%.

942
00:55:00,083 --> 00:55:02,083
[Baker] All due respect,
I'm closer to 50-50.

943
00:55:02,166 --> 00:55:05,541
[President] Okay, is there anyone that can
do better than shot-in-the-dark guesses?

944
00:55:05,625 --> 00:55:08,083
We're not handicapping
the fucking Army-Navy game?

945
00:55:08,166 --> 00:55:09,666
-Uh, Mr. President.
-[President] Yes.

946
00:55:09,750 --> 00:55:12,875
-Who's that?
-This is, uh, Jake Baerington, sir.

947
00:55:12,958 --> 00:55:17,500
Um, we actually met briefly
before the, uh, G8 last year.

948
00:55:18,375 --> 00:55:19,208
Uh…

949
00:55:21,750 --> 00:55:24,166
If someone could…
If… if we could get Anna Park.

950
00:55:24,250 --> 00:55:26,916
She's the national intelligence officer
for the DPRK.

951
00:55:27,000 --> 00:55:29,000
She'll have a more informed view

952
00:55:29,083 --> 00:55:30,958
on North Korean
intentions and capabilities, sir.

953
00:55:31,041 --> 00:55:33,166
[President] Okay, so how do I talk to her?

954
00:55:33,250 --> 00:55:35,166
We're getting her for you,
uh, Mr. President.

955
00:55:35,250 --> 00:55:37,458
[man] Company men, ready!

956
00:55:38,375 --> 00:55:39,500
Fire!

957
00:55:39,583 --> 00:55:41,583
[horses whinnying]

958
00:55:43,291 --> 00:55:44,708
Wow!

959
00:55:44,791 --> 00:55:46,791
[emergency broadcast alarm blaring]

960
00:55:49,666 --> 00:55:51,291
[Anna] I'm gonna have to call the office.

961
00:55:51,375 --> 00:55:52,916
[phone ringing]

962
00:55:53,875 --> 00:55:55,875
-Hello?
-Hey, Anna. It's Jake.

963
00:55:55,958 --> 00:55:59,333
-[Anna] Jake. I just got a JEEP alert.
-You're on an NSCC with the president.

964
00:55:59,416 --> 00:56:01,958
-I'm sorry, what?
-[President] Hey, Miss Park.

965
00:56:02,041 --> 00:56:03,416
It's the president.

966
00:56:03,500 --> 00:56:06,250
I understand that you're…
you're the expert.

967
00:56:06,333 --> 00:56:10,250
There was a launch, Anna,
about ten minutes ago. Not a test.

968
00:56:10,750 --> 00:56:11,916
Okay, we need answers.

969
00:56:12,416 --> 00:56:16,375
Starting with could the DPRK have
an SSBN capability we don't know about?

970
00:56:16,458 --> 00:56:19,583
And how likely is it that the regime
would initiate a strike like this?

971
00:56:19,666 --> 00:56:20,791
[scoffs]

972
00:56:20,875 --> 00:56:22,958
A launch? I mean…

973
00:56:23,791 --> 00:56:25,625
Jake, I'm sorry. I'm off today.

974
00:56:25,708 --> 00:56:28,041
-Okay? I'm not even…
-Anna, what the… Where are you?

975
00:56:28,125 --> 00:56:29,666
-What the hell?
-[Anna] Gettysburg.

976
00:56:29,750 --> 00:56:30,875
Anna.

977
00:56:32,125 --> 00:56:34,208
Please, this is real.

978
00:56:35,208 --> 00:56:38,541
I can't answer either question
with certainty, but yes,

979
00:56:38,625 --> 00:56:42,166
they've absolutely been seeking
a sea-based launch capability.

980
00:56:42,250 --> 00:56:45,250
They deployed a modified Romeo-class sub
two years ago

981
00:56:45,333 --> 00:56:48,166
carrying ten short-range cruise missiles.

982
00:56:48,250 --> 00:56:51,041
[President] But why?
Why… why would they do this?

983
00:56:51,125 --> 00:56:53,750
[Anna] The regime's primary motivation
is self-preservation.

984
00:56:53,833 --> 00:56:55,291
[President] Wouldn't that discourage?

985
00:56:55,375 --> 00:56:58,500
Sir, they may believe
they can survive a retaliatory strike.

986
00:56:58,583 --> 00:57:01,583
Which, given their dispersed command
and control and mobile-launch system,

987
00:57:01,666 --> 00:57:03,333
yes, it's entirely possible.

988
00:57:03,416 --> 00:57:07,375
And then negotiate relief for themselves.
Um, no more launches in exchange for aid.

989
00:57:07,458 --> 00:57:09,375
[President] They think
they can blackmail us?

990
00:57:09,458 --> 00:57:12,083
If you're losing a board game,
you might as well topple it.

991
00:57:12,166 --> 00:57:14,708
[Brady] Miss Park,
this is General Brady at STRATCOM.

992
00:57:14,791 --> 00:57:16,708
Last time I checked,

993
00:57:17,208 --> 00:57:20,250
Moscow's not exactly
winning the game either.

994
00:57:20,333 --> 00:57:24,125
[Anna] You're not wrong, sir.
The Russians are stretched and cornered.

995
00:57:24,208 --> 00:57:26,833
They've been coordinating
more closely with Beijing.

996
00:57:26,916 --> 00:57:29,791
They've grown far more aggressive
with their sub deployment.

997
00:57:30,291 --> 00:57:33,083
Where exactly in the Pacific
did the launch originate?

998
00:57:33,166 --> 00:57:35,250
We can't be precise, ma'am.

999
00:57:35,333 --> 00:57:37,458
DSP satellites missed it.

1000
00:57:37,541 --> 00:57:38,958
You're fucking kidding?

1001
00:57:39,041 --> 00:57:42,125
[President] Why the hell does that matter?
We're tracking them now, aren't we?

1002
00:57:42,208 --> 00:57:44,250
Yes, uh, Mr. President, we are.

1003
00:57:44,333 --> 00:57:47,166
It's just that blinding a DSP satellite,

1004
00:57:47,250 --> 00:57:49,708
it could indicate
that we've been compromised.

1005
00:57:49,791 --> 00:57:52,041
A cyber penetration
of our command-and-control systems.

1006
00:57:52,125 --> 00:57:53,583
Seven, eight…

1007
00:57:53,666 --> 00:57:57,375
Which would strongly suggest
a sophisticated, coordinated assault

1008
00:57:57,458 --> 00:57:59,000
that is only just beginning.

1009
00:57:59,083 --> 00:58:01,000
[Baerington] There's
no hard evidence of that.

1010
00:58:01,083 --> 00:58:02,375
We'd need more information.

1011
00:58:02,458 --> 00:58:06,083
The Chinese navy has been experimenting
with AI-assisted launch systems,

1012
00:58:06,166 --> 00:58:09,041
so this could be a technical mishap.

1013
00:58:09,125 --> 00:58:12,166
[President] All right, that's enough
of this. This is a waste of time.

1014
00:58:12,250 --> 00:58:14,791
Sir, a… a cyber expert could potentially--

1015
00:58:14,875 --> 00:58:17,875
[President] Yeah, well, find one, okay?

1016
00:58:17,958 --> 00:58:20,416
EKV has separated from the first GBI.

1017
00:58:21,416 --> 00:58:22,625
One minute to intercept.

1018
00:58:22,708 --> 00:58:24,291
-Aiden!
-Boo!

1019
00:58:25,416 --> 00:58:27,000
[Davis] Ma'am, I'm disconnecting you now.

1020
00:58:27,083 --> 00:58:29,708
-[Anna] Okay.
-If you have a JEEP alert, get moving.

1021
00:58:29,791 --> 00:58:31,375
Mom? What happened?

1022
00:58:31,458 --> 00:58:33,125
[cannon fires]

1023
00:58:33,208 --> 00:58:35,625
-[gunshots]
-[horse whinnies]

1024
00:58:35,708 --> 00:58:37,333
[man] Left! Right!

1025
00:58:37,416 --> 00:58:38,916
Right! Right!

1026
00:58:39,000 --> 00:58:41,208
Left! Right!

1027
00:58:45,375 --> 00:58:47,583
-[horse whinnies]
-[man 2] At ease!

1028
00:58:48,583 --> 00:58:49,916
[woman] Ten seconds.

1029
00:58:50,791 --> 00:58:51,791
Nine.

1030
00:58:52,375 --> 00:58:53,541
Eight.

1031
00:58:53,625 --> 00:58:55,333
-Seven.
-[Gonzalez] Before, with the chips--

1032
00:58:55,416 --> 00:58:57,541
-[man] We're good, man. I'm a slob.
-[woman] Six. Five…

1033
00:58:57,625 --> 00:58:59,916
[man] To hell with her.
Shouldn't have left it like that.

1034
00:59:00,416 --> 00:59:01,500
[woman] Three.

1035
00:59:02,000 --> 00:59:03,458
-Two.
-[Gonzalez] Yeah.

1036
00:59:04,083 --> 00:59:05,083
[woman] One.

1037
00:59:05,166 --> 00:59:06,541
[keyboard clacking]

1038
00:59:06,625 --> 00:59:08,625
[computer beeping]

1039
00:59:13,875 --> 00:59:15,041
[Gonzalez] Confirm impact.

1040
00:59:18,166 --> 00:59:20,500
-Confirm impact.
-[man 2] Stand by. Confirming.

1041
00:59:21,666 --> 00:59:23,666
[tense music playing]

1042
00:59:24,583 --> 00:59:26,375
[Gonzalez] What are you waiting for?

1043
00:59:29,666 --> 00:59:31,333
-[man 2] It's negative.
-What'd he say?

1044
00:59:32,333 --> 00:59:33,625
What did he say?

1045
00:59:34,666 --> 00:59:35,666
[man 2] I, um…

1046
00:59:36,875 --> 00:59:38,250
Negative impact.

1047
00:59:39,375 --> 00:59:40,875
Object remains inbound.

1048
00:59:46,125 --> 00:59:49,291
Like Baker said… coin toss.

1049
00:59:51,583 --> 00:59:54,166
[man] We did every fucking thing right.

1050
00:59:54,250 --> 00:59:57,166
[Brady] Mr. President,
confirming DEFCON 1, sir.

1051
00:59:58,250 --> 01:00:01,250
[woman 2] Oh Jesus. We just went DEFCON 1.

1052
01:00:01,333 --> 01:00:02,416
[President] Confirming.

1053
01:00:03,000 --> 01:00:04,750
[foreboding music playing]

1054
01:00:15,916 --> 01:00:17,041
What now, sir?

1055
01:00:18,250 --> 01:00:19,750
There is no plan B.

1056
01:00:20,416 --> 01:00:22,250
-[woman] Yes, it's a negative.
-[phone ringing]

1057
01:00:22,333 --> 01:00:25,583
-[woman 2] What do we do now?
-[woman] I don't know. I don't know.

1058
01:00:25,666 --> 01:00:26,833
Yes, confirming.

1059
01:00:41,625 --> 01:00:43,541
[indistinct chatter]

1060
01:00:43,625 --> 01:00:45,375
[man] Sir, Black Book's available.

1061
01:00:48,500 --> 01:00:50,291
[President] Why the hell
is that book out, son?

1062
01:00:50,375 --> 01:00:53,750
Mr. President, significant time
and expertise were devoted

1063
01:00:53,833 --> 01:00:55,541
to designing these options.

1064
01:00:55,625 --> 01:00:59,375
You'll find a range,
select, limited, and major,

1065
01:00:59,458 --> 01:01:02,291
depending on the scale of the response
you feel is warranted.

1066
01:01:02,375 --> 01:01:05,500
I suggest you allow
Lieutenant Commander Reeves to brief you.

1067
01:01:06,000 --> 01:01:08,291
Three 055 Renhai-class destroyers
on the move.

1068
01:01:08,375 --> 01:01:13,041
Jesus Christ. I got action in Khorramabad.
Sirens in Tel Aviv, sir.

1069
01:01:13,125 --> 01:01:14,958
Everybody knows we missed.

1070
01:01:16,666 --> 01:01:19,583
Mr. President, we're seeing
some concerning activity

1071
01:01:19,666 --> 01:01:21,666
from our adversaries
on a number of fronts.

1072
01:01:21,750 --> 01:01:24,083
[President] More concerning
than a goddamn nuclear launch?

1073
01:01:24,166 --> 01:01:29,000
Sir, the USS Virginia reports
it's just lost contact with its shadow,

1074
01:01:29,083 --> 01:01:32,708
one of four Russian submarines
we're tracking in the North Atlantic,

1075
01:01:32,791 --> 01:01:36,333
each presumably armed with 16 SLBMs.

1076
01:01:36,416 --> 01:01:39,375
Until we know differently,
we have to assume this may get worse.

1077
01:01:39,458 --> 01:01:43,000
[President] General Brady, I know
everyone's trying to do their jobs here,

1078
01:01:43,541 --> 01:01:45,250
but we need to slow the fuck down.

1079
01:01:46,375 --> 01:01:47,625
[Baerington] President's right.

1080
01:01:47,708 --> 01:01:49,833
There's no way
he can make an informed decision

1081
01:01:49,916 --> 01:01:51,333
under these circumstances.

1082
01:01:51,416 --> 01:01:53,791
[Brady] Mr. President, Mr. Baerington,

1083
01:01:53,875 --> 01:01:57,000
slowing down is one luxury
we just don't have.

1084
01:01:57,708 --> 01:01:59,625
These are the circumstances.

1085
01:01:59,708 --> 01:02:03,833
In little more than seven minutes,
we will lose the city of Chicago.

1086
01:02:03,916 --> 01:02:05,750
I can't tell you why.

1087
01:02:06,458 --> 01:02:09,833
Or why we're seeing
North Korea, Russia, China,

1088
01:02:09,916 --> 01:02:13,458
Pakistan, and even Iran
raising their alerts

1089
01:02:13,541 --> 01:02:16,875
and mobilizing their forces
across air, land, and sea.

1090
01:02:18,083 --> 01:02:20,916
Perhaps, as Mr. Baerington
suggested earlier,

1091
01:02:21,000 --> 01:02:24,833
they are simply and innocently
responding to our posture.

1092
01:02:24,916 --> 01:02:26,416
It is also possible

1093
01:02:26,500 --> 01:02:30,833
that they've seen our homeland
is about to absorb a catastrophic blow,

1094
01:02:30,916 --> 01:02:33,500
and they are readying
to take advantage of that.

1095
01:02:33,583 --> 01:02:37,333
Or this is all part of
a phased, coordinated assault,

1096
01:02:37,416 --> 01:02:38,833
with far worse to come.

1097
01:02:38,916 --> 01:02:40,416
I simply don't know.

1098
01:02:40,500 --> 01:02:42,791
What I do know is this.

1099
01:02:42,875 --> 01:02:48,375
If we do not take steps
to neutralize our enemies now,

1100
01:02:48,458 --> 01:02:51,125
we will lose our window to do so.

1101
01:02:51,208 --> 01:02:53,375
We can strike preemptively,

1102
01:02:53,458 --> 01:02:57,333
or risk 100 ICBMs launching our way,

1103
01:02:57,416 --> 01:03:01,083
at which time,
this war will have already been lost.

1104
01:03:05,875 --> 01:03:07,375
[President] And if there is no war?

1105
01:03:10,000 --> 01:03:10,833
If this is it?

1106
01:03:10,916 --> 01:03:13,958
I think we'd all welcome
any indication of that.

1107
01:03:14,041 --> 01:03:17,375
As unfathomable as it was
just five minutes ago,

1108
01:03:17,458 --> 01:03:19,666
I'd accept the loss
of ten million Americans

1109
01:03:19,750 --> 01:03:22,833
if I could be absolutely certain
it stops there.

1110
01:03:22,916 --> 01:03:27,250
Of course, in absence of that certainty,
we can all certainly say a prayer

1111
01:03:27,333 --> 01:03:31,750
and rely on the goodwill
of our adversaries to keep us safe.

1112
01:03:31,833 --> 01:03:36,416
Or we can hit their command centers,
silos, and bombers

1113
01:03:36,500 --> 01:03:38,291
while they're still on the ground,

1114
01:03:38,375 --> 01:03:42,333
eliminating their ability
to take further action against us.

1115
01:03:42,416 --> 01:03:44,583
[indistinct chatter]

1116
01:03:44,666 --> 01:03:47,833
We've already lost
one American city today.

1117
01:03:49,333 --> 01:03:50,625
How many more do you wanna risk?

1118
01:03:50,708 --> 01:03:52,333
[President] What kind of question is that?

1119
01:03:53,625 --> 01:03:56,416
-This is insanity, okay?
-No, sir.

1120
01:03:58,458 --> 01:03:59,958
This is reality.

1121
01:04:00,541 --> 01:04:01,833
Six minutes to impact.

1122
01:04:01,916 --> 01:04:05,208
[woman] It's Walker. She's got
the Russian foreign minister on the line.

1123
01:04:05,291 --> 01:04:06,791
We can't merge the calls.

1124
01:04:09,250 --> 01:04:10,250
Jake.

1125
01:04:10,916 --> 01:04:12,958
Sit room has
the Russian foreign minister on the line,

1126
01:04:13,041 --> 01:04:15,000
but we cannot merge the call.

1127
01:04:15,750 --> 01:04:18,500
You need to pick up and take it.

1128
01:04:19,791 --> 01:04:21,625
It has to be you.

1129
01:04:23,208 --> 01:04:24,208
Okay?

1130
01:04:24,833 --> 01:04:28,333
The president needs a reason
not to retaliate, okay? You give him one.

1131
01:04:31,083 --> 01:04:32,416
-You ready?
-Yeah.

1132
01:04:33,083 --> 01:04:34,250
Let's go.

1133
01:04:35,541 --> 01:04:37,458
This is Jake Baerington.

1134
01:04:37,541 --> 01:04:41,208
-I'm the deputy national security advisor.
-[minister] You authorized to speak?

1135
01:04:41,291 --> 01:04:44,583
I'm authorized to do whatever's necessary
to de-escalate this situation, sir.

1136
01:04:44,666 --> 01:04:48,875
[minister] Your bombers are airborne.
What kind of de-escalation is that?

1137
01:04:48,958 --> 01:04:50,291
Mr. Foreign Minister,

1138
01:04:50,375 --> 01:04:52,708
you have to understand
that's only a precaution.

1139
01:04:53,583 --> 01:04:55,458
Okay, our country is about to be hit

1140
01:04:55,541 --> 01:04:58,708
by an entirely unprecedented
and unprovoked attack.

1141
01:04:58,791 --> 01:05:00,875
[minister] Which we
had nothing to do with.

1142
01:05:00,958 --> 01:05:02,333
[Baerington] Do I have your word?

1143
01:05:02,416 --> 01:05:05,333
Can I assure the president
that Russia has nothing to do with this,

1144
01:05:05,416 --> 01:05:08,625
they're not behind the launch,
and you will not seek to capitalize?

1145
01:05:08,708 --> 01:05:09,708
[minister] Yes.

1146
01:05:10,541 --> 01:05:11,875
And do I have your word

1147
01:05:12,541 --> 01:05:15,875
that you won't use it as an excuse
to wipe us out?

1148
01:05:15,958 --> 01:05:18,166
-[Baerington] That's ridiculous.
-[minister] Is it?

1149
01:05:18,250 --> 01:05:19,708
You might tell your president,

1150
01:05:19,791 --> 01:05:24,458
if your forces do not stand down,
we will be compelled to respond in kind.

1151
01:05:25,250 --> 01:05:28,083
You have a sub off our coast
that just slipped its shadow.

1152
01:05:28,166 --> 01:05:31,208
Order it to the surface
to identify its location

1153
01:05:31,291 --> 01:05:32,625
as a show of good faith.

1154
01:05:32,708 --> 01:05:34,791
So you can wipe it out of the water?

1155
01:05:34,875 --> 01:05:37,333
We are running out of time,

1156
01:05:37,416 --> 01:05:39,083
and my wife is six months…

1157
01:05:41,666 --> 01:05:42,666
[minister] Jake.

1158
01:05:42,750 --> 01:05:44,458
I'm sorry. Um…

1159
01:05:46,500 --> 01:05:47,750
Jake?

1160
01:05:47,833 --> 01:05:49,625
[Baerington] Listen, if we get this wrong,

1161
01:05:50,458 --> 01:05:52,458
none of us are gonna be alive tomorrow.

1162
01:05:52,541 --> 01:05:55,125
Now, if you're telling me
that you didn't do this,

1163
01:05:55,208 --> 01:05:56,541
and I believe you,

1164
01:05:56,625 --> 01:05:59,541
then I can promise you
we will not hit any Russian targets.

1165
01:05:59,625 --> 01:06:03,958
Can you promise me you will stand down
your long-range strategic assets?

1166
01:06:04,041 --> 01:06:06,958
[minister] Better.
There'll be no retaliation at all.

1167
01:06:07,041 --> 01:06:08,125
I completely agree.

1168
01:06:08,208 --> 01:06:11,208
And I will push for that,
but that is not my decision, sir.

1169
01:06:11,291 --> 01:06:13,208
[minister] If you do retaliate,

1170
01:06:13,291 --> 01:06:18,000
can you guarantee that your response
will not infringe on our airspace?

1171
01:06:22,583 --> 01:06:25,000
[Baerington] With our bombers,
yes, of course.

1172
01:06:25,083 --> 01:06:26,333
And missiles?

1173
01:06:26,416 --> 01:06:29,916
If you determine that, God,
fucking China is responsible--

1174
01:06:30,000 --> 01:06:32,083
-[Baerington] Sir, there…
-Tell the truth.

1175
01:06:32,791 --> 01:06:33,625
No.

1176
01:06:37,125 --> 01:06:39,666
Sir, we both know
that there would be some overflight.

1177
01:06:39,750 --> 01:06:41,166
There's no way around that.

1178
01:06:41,250 --> 01:06:43,916
[minister] And you expect us
to simply trust

1179
01:06:44,000 --> 01:06:47,250
that warheads flying over our head
are not destined on our cities?

1180
01:06:47,333 --> 01:06:50,041
[Baerington] Hopefully, sir,
there will not be any warheads.

1181
01:06:51,000 --> 01:06:55,541
If there are, then, yes,
I'm asking you to trust me.

1182
01:06:56,708 --> 01:06:57,666
[sighs]

1183
01:06:59,458 --> 01:07:00,666
Trust. [chuckles]

1184
01:07:01,708 --> 01:07:02,666
Why?

1185
01:07:04,083 --> 01:07:06,250
-I'll talk to my president.
-What if, um--

1186
01:07:06,333 --> 01:07:08,541
[dial tone]

1187
01:07:14,208 --> 01:07:15,875
[man] Darkstar, this is Ghost 1.

1188
01:07:15,958 --> 01:07:17,625
Approaching loiter position.

1189
01:07:19,500 --> 01:07:21,750
[man 2] Ghost 1-1, Darkstar.
Picture clean.

1190
01:07:21,833 --> 01:07:23,458
Stand by mission data package.

1191
01:07:31,083 --> 01:07:32,666
[man 3] Is this right?

1192
01:07:33,625 --> 01:07:35,833
Darkstar, Ghost. MDB confirmed.

1193
01:07:37,791 --> 01:07:40,333
[man 2] Ghost, Darkstar.
Stand by execution order.

1194
01:07:42,708 --> 01:07:45,250
Forward-deployed B-2s
are at loitering position.

1195
01:07:45,333 --> 01:07:47,833
Mr. President,
we're going to need your decision.

1196
01:07:48,333 --> 01:07:51,750
Lieutenant Commander Reeves
is your strike advisor

1197
01:07:52,250 --> 01:07:55,500
and can walk you through
the authentication process.

1198
01:07:55,583 --> 01:07:59,000
Then you'll need to read aloud
an attack option designation--

1199
01:07:59,083 --> 01:08:01,500
[President] Yeah. Look,
I understand all that, all right?

1200
01:08:01,583 --> 01:08:03,708
Reid, I need you.

1201
01:08:03,791 --> 01:08:05,500
[helicopter whirring]

1202
01:08:05,583 --> 01:08:06,833
What do you think, Reid?

1203
01:08:06,916 --> 01:08:08,708
[man] We're close to take off.

1204
01:08:08,791 --> 01:08:10,000
[President] Did we lose him?

1205
01:08:11,000 --> 01:08:12,541
[man] Sir! No, no, no, no, sir!

1206
01:08:13,041 --> 01:08:14,833
-Holy shit!
-[rumbling]

1207
01:08:15,416 --> 01:08:16,916
-[President] What was that?
-All right.

1208
01:08:17,000 --> 01:08:18,541
[Baerington] Mr. President?

1209
01:08:18,625 --> 01:08:21,375
-It's Jake again, sir. Baerington.
-Keep your seats. Keep your seats.

1210
01:08:21,458 --> 01:08:23,500
[Baerington] I spoke
to the Russian foreign minister.

1211
01:08:23,583 --> 01:08:26,958
He denies their responsibility
for the launch.

1212
01:08:27,625 --> 01:08:30,750
Said he spoke to Beijing,
and he doesn't think it was them either.

1213
01:08:33,416 --> 01:08:35,916
-I believed him, sir.
-[President] You did?

1214
01:08:36,500 --> 01:08:39,666
-They gonna back down?
-Sir, I think that they want to.

1215
01:08:40,750 --> 01:08:43,416
And if we can guarantee
that we will not retaliate,

1216
01:08:43,500 --> 01:08:44,875
I think I can, uh…

1217
01:08:46,416 --> 01:08:48,416
we can convince them.

1218
01:08:48,500 --> 01:08:51,041
-[President] What does that mean?
-[Baerington] We don't launch.

1219
01:08:51,958 --> 01:08:53,250
Against anyone.

1220
01:08:53,916 --> 01:08:55,000
For now, at least.

1221
01:08:55,083 --> 01:08:57,833
[President] What, we just sit back
and watch Chicago incinerate?

1222
01:08:58,375 --> 01:09:01,666
Are you fucking kidding me? Do you think
the American people are gonna go for that?

1223
01:09:01,750 --> 01:09:04,625
[Baerington] Sir, the… the warhead,
it might still malfunction.

1224
01:09:04,708 --> 01:09:06,333
They do that sometimes.

1225
01:09:06,416 --> 01:09:08,666
[President] Did he agree to these terms?

1226
01:09:09,166 --> 01:09:12,291
All right, we do nothing,
they back off for certain?

1227
01:09:12,375 --> 01:09:14,375
-More or less.
-[President] More or less?!

1228
01:09:14,458 --> 01:09:15,875
-Jake.
-[Baerington] Yes, sir.

1229
01:09:15,958 --> 01:09:17,833
[President] I'm gonna need you to breathe.

1230
01:09:17,916 --> 01:09:19,041
I'm breathing just fine, sir.

1231
01:09:19,125 --> 01:09:22,666
[President] Good 'cause my job is
to make this decision. I wish it weren't.

1232
01:09:22,750 --> 01:09:26,375
And your job is to tell me
exactly what he agreed to.

1233
01:09:27,250 --> 01:09:30,166
-No bullshit. Can you do that?
-He didn't agree to anything, sir.

1234
01:09:30,250 --> 01:09:32,083
He said
he needed to speak with his president.

1235
01:09:32,583 --> 01:09:35,041
Sounds to me like we know nothing new.

1236
01:09:35,125 --> 01:09:37,833
[Baerington] Wrong, General.
If we do what he's asking,

1237
01:09:37,916 --> 01:09:40,000
if we hold back,
there's at least a chance.

1238
01:09:40,083 --> 01:09:41,541
Two minutes and 30 seconds.

1239
01:09:41,625 --> 01:09:44,583
[President] Jake, Jake,
I do what you're suggesting,

1240
01:09:45,791 --> 01:09:48,041
I let whoever did this get away with it.

1241
01:09:48,541 --> 01:09:50,500
How is that any different
from surrendering?

1242
01:09:50,583 --> 01:09:52,541
[Baerington] Sir, if you
wanna look at it that way,

1243
01:09:53,166 --> 01:09:55,500
then I'm telling you your choices are

1244
01:09:55,583 --> 01:09:57,083
surrender or suicide.

1245
01:09:57,166 --> 01:09:59,166
[tense music playing]

1246
01:10:01,875 --> 01:10:03,000
[President] Uh…

1247
01:10:08,333 --> 01:10:09,666
We gonna need a minute.

1248
01:10:11,833 --> 01:10:13,333
So what now? What are we doing?

1249
01:10:14,416 --> 01:10:16,041
Now I call Fort Belvoir.

1250
01:10:16,125 --> 01:10:18,666
Put the Army Corps of Engineers
on standby.

1251
01:10:19,666 --> 01:10:22,583
In case the White House gets hit
and they need to dig us out.

1252
01:10:22,666 --> 01:10:23,625
[woman] Oh God.

1253
01:10:23,708 --> 01:10:25,666
-[Baerington] Serious?
-[Miller] That's the plan.

1254
01:10:27,583 --> 01:10:29,000
There's a plan for this?

1255
01:10:38,916 --> 01:10:40,375
If this order comes through…

1256
01:10:42,875 --> 01:10:44,375
I know my job, sir.

1257
01:10:47,125 --> 01:10:49,125
[foreboding music playing]

1258
01:11:00,166 --> 01:11:05,291
[man] Romeo, Bravo, Juliett, Whiskey,
Delta, Foxtrot, Echo.

1259
01:11:05,375 --> 01:11:07,333
Missilization order is authentic.

1260
01:11:08,916 --> 01:11:10,500
Romeo, Bravo, Juliett,

1261
01:11:10,583 --> 01:11:13,125
Whiskey, Delta, Foxtrot, Echo.

1262
01:11:13,208 --> 01:11:14,583
I concur with missilization.

1263
01:11:15,666 --> 01:11:16,791
Three, two, one. Turn.

1264
01:11:16,875 --> 01:11:18,750
Sir, standing by for fire order.

1265
01:11:20,041 --> 01:11:22,083
Sir, your nuclear forces are ready.

1266
01:11:22,583 --> 01:11:24,791
-[man 2] Sir, B-2s are at loiter.
-[woman] Yes, sir.

1267
01:11:24,875 --> 01:11:27,083
[man 3] Missile field status green.

1268
01:11:27,166 --> 01:11:28,916
What if he doesn't come back on?

1269
01:11:30,541 --> 01:11:34,041
Decapitation event.
We find the vice president.

1270
01:11:34,125 --> 01:11:37,958
If we can't reach him, speaker.
Right on down the list.

1271
01:11:38,041 --> 01:11:39,166
[President] I'm here.

1272
01:11:40,083 --> 01:11:42,916
-[man 4] You'll need your SAS card, sir.
-[President] Oh.

1273
01:11:45,708 --> 01:11:47,208
It's in here somewhere.

1274
01:11:48,041 --> 01:11:49,125
Right.

1275
01:11:50,041 --> 01:11:51,916
Reminds me of when I was in college.

1276
01:11:54,958 --> 01:11:57,208
[man 4] You just, uh, read it aloud.

1277
01:11:59,708 --> 01:12:02,500
[President] November, Delta, Oscar.

1278
01:12:03,000 --> 01:12:06,000
One, one, one, seven.

1279
01:12:06,083 --> 01:12:08,500
November, Delta, Oscar.

1280
01:12:08,583 --> 01:12:11,541
One, one, one, seven.

1281
01:12:13,333 --> 01:12:15,833
National command authority confirmed.

1282
01:12:17,625 --> 01:12:19,458
Your orders, Mr. President?

1283
01:12:20,208 --> 01:12:21,375
[President] My orders?

1284
01:12:22,708 --> 01:12:24,916
[suspenseful music swells]

1285
01:12:34,833 --> 01:12:36,833
[foreboding music playing]

1286
01:12:52,541 --> 01:12:54,541
[keyboard clacking]

1287
01:13:01,416 --> 01:13:03,708
[woman] You sure you
don't want any coffee? Water?

1288
01:13:04,208 --> 01:13:05,625
No, thank you, ma'am.

1289
01:13:06,333 --> 01:13:07,333
[door opens]

1290
01:13:08,125 --> 01:13:10,125
[indistinct chatter]

1291
01:13:21,875 --> 01:13:24,166
Betty, can you get us the majority leader?

1292
01:13:24,250 --> 01:13:26,750
Quickly, please. Thanks.

1293
01:13:28,708 --> 01:13:30,500
[Betty] Already 45 minutes late.

1294
01:13:33,583 --> 01:13:35,416
POTUS for majority leader, please.

1295
01:13:36,500 --> 01:13:37,333
Thank you.

1296
01:13:50,500 --> 01:13:52,500
[keyboard clacking]

1297
01:13:55,375 --> 01:13:56,958
[birdsong]

1298
01:13:57,041 --> 01:13:59,041
[foreboding music continues]

1299
01:14:02,916 --> 01:14:04,625
[man] That's looking more like it.

1300
01:14:06,083 --> 01:14:07,333
[sighs]

1301
01:14:18,000 --> 01:14:20,083
[phone ringing]

1302
01:14:22,125 --> 01:14:23,208
[Baker] Nope.

1303
01:14:23,791 --> 01:14:25,125
Out playing nine.

1304
01:14:26,583 --> 01:14:28,041
It's going, I guess.

1305
01:14:28,541 --> 01:14:31,958
Last time I was around all these uniforms,
I was a private.

1306
01:14:32,583 --> 01:14:34,500
[chuckles] They're still full of shit.

1307
01:14:40,458 --> 01:14:42,500
Thanks, George. I appreciate that.

1308
01:14:43,625 --> 01:14:46,375
We were lucky to have 33 great years.

1309
01:14:47,083 --> 01:14:49,875
Meant the world you and Sheila
came to the funeral.

1310
01:14:52,083 --> 01:14:54,458
Okay, talk later.

1311
01:14:58,875 --> 01:14:59,875
[man] Sir.

1312
01:15:01,000 --> 01:15:02,000
Sir.

1313
01:15:02,833 --> 01:15:04,208
-[Baker] Thank you.
-[man] Yeah.

1314
01:15:07,083 --> 01:15:08,583
Let's knock this in now.

1315
01:15:10,333 --> 01:15:11,625
[phone beeps]

1316
01:15:11,708 --> 01:15:13,958
[line ringing]

1317
01:15:14,625 --> 01:15:16,833
[President] Hey.
I was hoping to catch you.

1318
01:15:17,541 --> 01:15:20,625
-I wish you were here to see this.
-[President] Yeah? Is it going good?

1319
01:15:20,708 --> 01:15:23,708
[First Lady] They say anything
that raises awareness helps.

1320
01:15:23,791 --> 01:15:26,291
-Okay.
-[First Lady] You sound tired.

1321
01:15:26,791 --> 01:15:28,583
No. Um…

1322
01:15:29,208 --> 01:15:30,208
I'm fine.

1323
01:15:31,250 --> 01:15:35,083
My husband, the only politician
who can't lie to save his life.

1324
01:15:35,166 --> 01:15:36,958
Okay. I'm fucked.

1325
01:15:37,041 --> 01:15:39,208
You know, didn't they, uh,

1326
01:15:40,166 --> 01:15:41,791
promise that, uh,

1327
01:15:42,291 --> 01:15:44,125
we'd get used to it after a while?

1328
01:15:44,208 --> 01:15:47,083
[First Lady] "Worse than the campaign."
I think that's what I remember.

1329
01:15:47,166 --> 01:15:49,666
I think they said
it would break us, actually.

1330
01:15:49,750 --> 01:15:52,750
Oh, speaking of,
we have to talk about my mother.

1331
01:15:53,666 --> 01:15:56,333
Now the doctor's saying
she needs full-time help.

1332
01:15:59,291 --> 01:16:01,458
Hello? Are you there?

1333
01:16:01,958 --> 01:16:03,958
It's not just me. It's the doctor.

1334
01:16:04,041 --> 01:16:07,875
Okay. I mean, you know.
Let's do it when you come back, all right?

1335
01:16:07,958 --> 01:16:10,458
It's not fair that you got
the save-the-elephants high ground.

1336
01:16:10,541 --> 01:16:11,375
[chuckles]

1337
01:16:11,458 --> 01:16:12,875
I always have the high ground.

1338
01:16:12,958 --> 01:16:15,666
-And don't you forget it, buddy.
-[President] You all right though?

1339
01:16:15,750 --> 01:16:16,666
-Huh?
-[First Lady] Hey.

1340
01:16:16,750 --> 01:16:18,875
-You… you okay?
-[First Lady] Fine.

1341
01:16:19,458 --> 01:16:21,041
-Can you hear me?
-[static crackling]

1342
01:16:21,583 --> 01:16:23,166
[First Lady cutting out]

1343
01:16:26,375 --> 01:16:27,375
Hello?

1344
01:16:27,958 --> 01:16:29,333
Hon, can you hear me?

1345
01:16:30,333 --> 01:16:31,333
[phone beeping]

1346
01:16:31,416 --> 01:16:34,416
Bruce, what do we have, uh,

1347
01:16:35,166 --> 01:16:36,291
now?

1348
01:16:36,375 --> 01:16:37,666
-[Bruce] Basketball, sir.
-Oh.

1349
01:16:38,166 --> 01:16:42,166
-Is that, uh, Angel Reese still?
-[Bruce] Yeah, with the kids.

1350
01:16:42,750 --> 01:16:44,541
-You ready for that?
-Of course.

1351
01:16:44,625 --> 01:16:46,333
You been shooting around a little bit?

1352
01:16:46,416 --> 01:16:48,666
-You got a jump shot?
-[Bruce] Do I have a jump shot?

1353
01:16:48,750 --> 01:16:49,958
-Yeah.
-[Bruce] Little one.

1354
01:16:50,458 --> 01:16:52,041
-Maybe.
-[President] Show me.

1355
01:16:53,250 --> 01:16:55,791
-Like, you wanna see it?
-[President] Don't sh… No, Bruce, no.

1356
01:16:55,875 --> 01:16:57,375
-Okay.
-[President] Hey, Betty.

1357
01:16:58,541 --> 01:17:00,250
Can you, uh… [clears throat]

1358
01:17:01,166 --> 01:17:06,500
Can you ask the, uh, guy
to put the insole in this thing?

1359
01:17:06,583 --> 01:17:09,666
-[Betty] It slipped out again?
-Just, I don't know what's going on.

1360

[sirens blaring]

1364
01:18:09,166 --> 01:18:12,125
What's the name
of the school that, uh… the class?

1365
01:18:12,208 --> 01:18:15,916
-The Jump Shot Girls Basketball Camp, sir.
-[President] Jump Shot. Jump Shot.

1366
01:18:16,625 --> 01:18:19,708
-How's your jump shot, Ken?
-It's not bad, sir.

1367
01:18:20,625 --> 01:18:21,666
How about yours?

1368
01:18:22,375 --> 01:18:23,750
I don't have the knees.

1369
01:18:32,166 --> 01:18:35,750
[woman] After the budget signing, I've
slotted some prep time for the hearing.

1370
01:18:35,833 --> 01:18:37,791
-[Baker] Oh, which one is that?
-House Oversight.

1371
01:18:37,875 --> 01:18:40,166
-Red Sea shipping task force.
-[Baker] Right.

1372
01:18:41,208 --> 01:18:42,208
Sure.

1373
01:18:43,416 --> 01:18:44,416
Okay.

1374
01:18:45,333 --> 01:18:46,791
Whose ass am I kissing first?

1375
01:18:46,875 --> 01:18:49,083
[woman] Senator Cunningham.
Democrat. Connecticut.

1376
01:18:49,166 --> 01:18:51,708
He supported the additional funding
from the start.

1377
01:18:54,416 --> 01:18:56,166
This is Secretary Baker.

How's my tie?

1381
01:19:22,708 --> 01:19:23,833
[Ken] Looks good, sir.

1382
01:19:24,750 --> 01:19:27,208
-[clears throat] All right.

1384
01:19:31,958 --> 01:19:34,583
Who's your favorite WNBA star, sir?

1385
01:19:39,333 --> 01:19:41,583
[man] Mr. President, how's it going today?

1386
01:19:42,166 --> 01:19:43,250
Feeling good.

1387
01:19:44,625 --> 01:19:47,958
[man] Mr. President, I look forward
to shooting around.

1388
01:19:48,041 --> 01:19:51,500
Mr. President, who has
a better three-point shot, you or Angel?

1389
01:19:51,583 --> 01:19:54,708
[chuckles] That's a…
Is that a trick question?

1390
01:19:55,208 --> 01:19:57,166
Trying to set me up. Okay. I know.

1391
01:19:59,041 --> 01:20:00,458
Do you think you can take her?

1392
01:20:00,541 --> 01:20:04,000
-[woman] One more question for you.
-I don't know about that. [clears throat]

Well, it's really nice to be here.
I'm really glad to be here.

1426
01:21:34,916 --> 01:21:37,000
How's it feel
to have the morning off school?

1427
01:21:37,500 --> 01:21:40,416
Feel good? Let me see your shot.
You got a shot for me?

1428
01:21:40,500 --> 01:21:42,833
Go ahead. Let me see the ball. Let's see.

-[President] Oh!
-[cheering]

1430
01:21:51,125 --> 01:21:54,625
[Baker] That's great. I'll have my office
call over with some dates.

1431
01:21:54,708 --> 01:21:57,208
-[man] Reviewed. Here are my notes.
-Thanks, Senator.

1432
01:21:57,291 --> 01:22:00,000
-[man] Let's get ready to present.
-[woman] Sir, whizzer's on the line.

01:22:03,208 --> 01:22:06,333
-You can use your SAS card.
-Sure. Okay.

-Authenticate, sir.

1436
01:22:13,166 --> 01:22:15,791
[Baker] Bravo 19416.

1437
01:22:15,875 --> 01:22:18,583
[President] They said I gotta
teach you something, and I'm…

1438
01:22:18,666 --> 01:22:21,208
I'm not gonna teach you to shoot.
I know you can do that.

1439
01:22:21,291 --> 01:22:25,750
But, uh, I wanna tell you a little story
about how sports helped change my life.

1440
01:22:25,833 --> 01:22:29,375
Growing up, I wasn't athletic
like… like Angel here.

1441
01:22:29,458 --> 01:22:31,500
I wasn't athletic.
I couldn't play football.

1442
01:22:32,500 --> 01:22:34,166
I hear you're rotating out next month.

1443
01:22:34,250 --> 01:22:36,375
[President] My mom and pop had,
you know, a store…

1444
01:22:36,458 --> 01:22:37,750
Back to Omaha.

1445
01:22:39,541 --> 01:22:41,250
I bet you're gonna miss this.

1446
01:22:42,166 --> 01:22:45,458
-Standing around while the star performs.
-[President] Show me your shot. Go ahead.

1447
01:22:46,041 --> 01:22:48,125
-He took his time, see?
-[cheering]

1448
01:22:48,208 --> 01:22:49,750
[Angel] Yeah! Yeah!

1449
01:22:51,583 --> 01:22:52,708
[President] Now…

1450
01:22:53,458 --> 01:22:54,625
This is my third.

1451
01:22:56,291 --> 01:22:59,208
They're all chronically late narcissists.

1452
01:23:00,333 --> 01:23:02,166
At least this one reads the newspaper.

1453
01:23:04,250 --> 01:23:06,208
My understanding was
we initiate on launch.

1454
01:23:06,291 --> 01:23:09,000
Get people moving.
Can we get a legal opinion on that?

1455
01:23:09,083 --> 01:23:11,666
[Rodbell] Yeah,
I'm not sure that's right, Reid.

1456
01:23:11,750 --> 01:23:14,583
In fact, I'm damn near certain
the president has COG.

1457
01:23:14,666 --> 01:23:17,000
Well, I'm issuing the order.

1458
01:23:17,875 --> 01:23:20,916
Plenty of time to sort it later,
and if you're gonna start moving people,

1459
01:23:21,000 --> 01:23:23,333
I don't wanna be caught
with our pants down.

1460
01:23:23,416 --> 01:23:25,375
[Brady] I have an updated impact estimate.

1461
01:23:25,458 --> 01:23:26,833
Go ahead, Tony.

1462
01:23:27,500 --> 01:23:30,208
[Brady] Low probability.
Louisville, St. Louis.

1463
01:23:30,708 --> 01:23:33,000
Medium. Chicago, Indianapolis.

1464
01:23:33,500 --> 01:23:35,791
High. Cleveland, Columbus.

1465
01:23:35,875 --> 01:23:39,333
That's primary, of course.
Still assessing the prevailing winds.

1467
01:23:41,666 --> 01:23:45,208
This is why we have the GBIs.
No need to panic people.

01:23:45,708 --> 01:23:47,291
Did you say Chicago?

1469
01:23:47,375 --> 01:23:50,041
[Brady] Uh, yes. In the medium bucket.

1470
01:23:51,333 --> 01:23:53,291
My daughter lives in Chicago.

1471
01:23:53,375 --> 01:23:55,625
If our country's gonna fix
the world's problems,

1472
01:23:55,708 --> 01:23:57,583
we're gonna have to work together.

1473
01:23:58,083 --> 01:24:02,458
-Teamwork, as we have been talking about.
-[Bruce] Hello?

1474
01:24:02,541 --> 01:24:07,208
[President] I also think
that I won't get to play for Team USA.

1475
01:24:07,291 --> 01:24:09,291
-[Bruce] Yeah. Hey.
-[Ken] Hello?

1476
01:24:09,375 --> 01:24:12,333
[Bruce] We need to pull him.
Quickly if we can.

1477
01:24:12,833 --> 01:24:15,166
-What the hell's going on?
-[Bruce] I don't know.

[Baker] Lindsay!

1497
01:25:15,166 --> 01:25:17,125

the nearest base to Chicago.

-[President] Don't know?

You're running the fucking Pentagon.

1507
01:25:40,083 --> 01:25:42,625
They had one briefing
when I was sworn in. One.

1508
01:25:42,708 --> 01:25:44,416
And they told me that's the protocol.

1509
01:25:44,916 --> 01:25:46,583
[Baker] They told me the same thing.

1510
01:25:47,250 --> 01:25:50,375
Shit, I got a whole fucking briefing
on when a Supreme Court justice dies.

Replacement. Replacement for what happens
if the replacement drops out.

1513
01:25:56,333 --> 01:25:58,541
crawls out of his grave
and wants his job back.

1514
01:25:58,625 --> 01:26:01,083
[Baker] We focused on
more likely scenarios.

1515
01:26:01,166 --> 01:26:03,083
Things we might actually
have to deal with.

1516
01:26:03,166 --> 01:26:04,333
[President] Yeah, with this.

1517
01:26:04,416 --> 01:26:06,875
[Baker] Best I can remember,
we follow the steps.

1518
01:26:06,958 --> 01:26:09,000
We… we're following procedure.

1519
01:26:09,083 --> 01:26:11,625
[Ken] Negative. That's 20 minutes
from the South Lawn.

1520
01:26:11,708 --> 01:26:13,541
-Go to Andrews.
-[Baerington] Anna. It's Jake.

1521
01:26:13,625 --> 01:26:15,333
[Anna] Jake. I just got a JEEP alert.

1522
01:26:15,416 --> 01:26:17,333
[Baerington] You're on an NSCC
with the president.

1523
01:26:17,416 --> 01:26:20,750
-[Anna] I'm sorry, what?
-Hey, Miss Park. This is the president.

1524
01:26:21,583 --> 01:26:24,000
I understand that you're…
you're the expert.

1525
01:26:24,083 --> 01:26:25,666
[Baerington] There was a launch, A--

1526
01:26:29,875 --> 01:26:30,833
[Baker sighs]

1527
01:26:34,416 --> 01:26:35,875
[line ringing]

1528
01:26:37,041 --> 01:26:38,500
-Hi.
-[Carrie] Hey, leave a message.

1529
01:26:38,583 --> 01:26:40,666
-Please don't send me to voicemail.
-[beep]

1530
01:26:41,166 --> 01:26:44,208
It's your father.
It's an emergency. Call me.

1531
01:26:44,916 --> 01:26:45,958
[sighs]

1532
01:26:46,041 --> 01:26:48,208
[phone keyboard clicking]

1533
01:26:50,791 --> 01:26:52,083
Did you reach anyone?

1534
01:26:52,166 --> 01:26:54,416
[Lindsay] I'm on
with Great Lakes Naval Station.

1535
01:26:55,083 --> 01:26:58,125
-Maybe they can trace her phone.
-Transport's ready. Let's go, sir.

1536
01:26:58,208 --> 01:27:00,458
-Go where?
-[man] NMCC's initiated Ivy Pulse.

1537
01:27:00,541 --> 01:27:02,750
-Helo's inbound.
-[Baker] I didn't ask for that.

1538
01:27:02,833 --> 01:27:05,708
-What about this call?
-Thank you. Hold on. What's happening?

1539
01:27:05,791 --> 01:27:08,583
-[Baker] I'm supposed to stay on.
-The secretary needs to evacuate.

1540
01:27:08,666 --> 01:27:10,750
All right, can I speak to you
in the hallway, please?

1541
01:27:11,416 --> 01:27:13,541
[President] …enough of this.
This is a waste of time.

1542
01:27:13,625 --> 01:27:15,958
[Baerington] Sir, a cyber expert
could potentially--

1543
01:27:16,041 --> 01:27:18,666
Yeah, well, find one, okay?

1544
01:27:18,750 --> 01:27:21,666
[Brady] EKV has separated
from the first GBI.

1545
01:27:22,291 --> 01:27:23,708
One minute to intercept.

1546
01:27:28,583 --> 01:27:30,083
This better fucking work.

1547
01:27:30,166 --> 01:27:32,166
[tense music playing]

1548
01:27:47,416 --> 01:27:49,041
[Baker] How will we know, Tony?

1549
01:27:49,125 --> 01:27:50,166
[Brady] Give me a second.

1550
01:27:50,250 --> 01:27:52,458
We'll get the MDB on speaker
from Fort Greely.

1551
01:27:56,916 --> 01:27:59,500
[sirens blaring]

1552
01:27:59,583 --> 01:28:01,500
Four minutes to the LZ, sir.

1553
01:28:02,333 --> 01:28:03,708
[woman] Ten seconds.

1554
01:28:04,500 --> 01:28:05,500
Nine.

1555
01:28:06,000 --> 01:28:08,833
-Eight. Seven.
-[Gonzalez] Listen, with the chips--

1556
01:28:08,916 --> 01:28:11,125
-[man] We're good, man. I'm a slob.
-[woman] Six. Five…

1557
01:28:11,208 --> 01:28:13,500
[man] To hell with her.
Shouldn't have left it like that.

1558
01:28:14,083 --> 01:28:15,083
[woman] Three.

1559
01:28:15,583 --> 01:28:16,500
Two.

1560
01:28:17,583 --> 01:28:18,708
One.

1561
01:28:18,791 --> 01:28:20,000
[keyboard clacking]

1562
01:28:20,083 --> 01:28:22,250
[computer beeping]

1563
01:28:27,458 --> 01:28:30,625
-[Gonzalez] Confirm impact.
-[computer beeping]

1564
01:28:31,875 --> 01:28:34,125
-[Gonzalez] Confirm impact.
-[man] Stand by. Confirming.

1565
01:28:35,375 --> 01:28:37,458
[computer beeping]

1566
01:28:37,541 --> 01:28:39,250
[Gonzalez] Come on.
What are you waiting for?

1567
01:28:42,458 --> 01:28:44,208
-[man] It's negative.
-[Miller] What'd he say?

1568
01:28:45,250 --> 01:28:46,333
What'd he say?

1569
01:28:47,666 --> 01:28:48,666
[man] I, uh…

1570
01:28:49,375 --> 01:28:50,541
A negative impact.

1571
01:28:51,583 --> 01:28:53,083
Object remains inbound.

1572
01:28:53,166 --> 01:28:55,166
[foreboding music playing]

1573
01:29:01,791 --> 01:29:03,958
[man 2] We did every fucking thing right.

1574
01:29:04,458 --> 01:29:07,416
[Brady] Mr. President,
confirming DEFCON 1, sir.

1575
01:29:08,041 --> 01:29:10,500
[woman 2] Oh Jesus. We just went DEFCON 1.

1576
01:29:10,583 --> 01:29:12,708
-[man 3] Okay.
-[woman 2] Negative impact.

1577
01:29:12,791 --> 01:29:13,833
Confirming.

1578
01:29:13,916 --> 01:29:15,041
[man 3] Uh…

1579
01:29:15,125 --> 01:29:17,125
[indistinct chatter]

1580
01:29:20,666 --> 01:29:23,791
[Kagan] Major, confirm the release
of two additional GBIs to intercept.

1581
01:29:27,041 --> 01:29:28,708
Why the hell is that book out, son?

1582
01:29:28,791 --> 01:29:32,166
[Brady] Mr. President, significant time
and expertise were devoted

1583
01:29:32,250 --> 01:29:33,958
to designing these options.

1584
01:29:34,041 --> 01:29:37,291
You'll find a range,
select, limited, and major,

1585
01:29:37,375 --> 01:29:40,208
depending on the scale of the response
you feel is warranted.

1586
01:29:40,291 --> 01:29:43,625
I suggest you allow
Lieutenant Commander Reeves to brief you.

1587
01:29:43,708 --> 01:29:47,583
Per the provisions
of OPLAN 8044, Revision 25,

1588
01:29:47,666 --> 01:29:51,000
the NMCC requests authority
to initiate a counterstrike.

1589
01:29:51,666 --> 01:29:53,791
The green tab are SAOs,

1590
01:29:53,875 --> 01:29:55,833
yellow, LAOs,

1591
01:29:55,916 --> 01:29:57,416
and red, MAOs.

1592
01:29:57,500 --> 01:30:00,500
Within each section,
your options are organized by region.

1593
01:30:00,583 --> 01:30:04,041
On each page,
you'll find a designation number,

1594
01:30:04,125 --> 01:30:06,666
both a map and a list of targets,

1595
01:30:07,291 --> 01:30:09,500
along with enemy casualty estimates.

1596
01:30:10,000 --> 01:30:11,750
Where would you like to begin, sir?

1597
01:30:12,625 --> 01:30:15,500
[Brady] Mr. President, we're seeing
some concerning activity

1598
01:30:15,583 --> 01:30:17,583
from our adversaries
on a number of fronts.

1599
01:30:17,666 --> 01:30:20,291
More concerning
than a goddamn nuclear launch?

1600
01:30:20,375 --> 01:30:21,541
-[Carrie] Please stop.
-Carrie.

1601
01:30:21,625 --> 01:30:23,750
-I told you, I need space.
-I know. I…

1602
01:30:23,833 --> 01:30:25,708
-Where are you?
-[Carrie] I'm not doing this now.

1603
01:30:25,791 --> 01:30:27,541
Carrie, please.

1604
01:30:27,625 --> 01:30:29,750
[Carrie] I'm home,
about to leave for rehearsal.

1605
01:30:29,833 --> 01:30:31,833
Look, can I call you later?

1606
01:30:32,416 --> 01:30:34,958
My therapist actually thinks that…

1607
01:30:37,375 --> 01:30:40,375
I know we have to talk at some point.

1608
01:30:42,041 --> 01:30:45,500
With Mom, it's just been a lot, okay?

1609
01:30:46,125 --> 01:30:47,125
[Baker] I know.

1610
01:30:47,708 --> 01:30:48,708
[Carrie sighs]

1611
01:30:49,458 --> 01:30:50,625
[man] You coming, hon?

1612
01:30:51,291 --> 01:30:53,833
-[Carrie] Yeah, I'm coming. I have to go.
-We're gonna be late.

1613
01:30:53,916 --> 01:30:56,541
-[Baker] Who is that?
-[Carrie] A friend.

1614
01:30:57,791 --> 01:30:59,416
I'm seeing someone.

1615
01:31:00,958 --> 01:31:02,875
-You are?
-[Carrie] Yeah.

1616
01:31:03,708 --> 01:31:05,208
Is it serious?

1617
01:31:05,291 --> 01:31:07,625
-[Carrie sighs] Come on.
-Well, is it?

1618
01:31:08,916 --> 01:31:10,416
[Carrie] Yeah, I think so.

1619
01:31:12,208 --> 01:31:13,875
He's going with you to work?

1620
01:31:14,458 --> 01:31:16,541
[Carrie] We walk together.
It's in the same direction.

1621
01:31:20,083 --> 01:31:21,083
Good.

1622
01:31:22,250 --> 01:31:23,333
That's good.

1623
01:31:24,375 --> 01:31:27,500
You're being really strange.
I'll call you when I can, okay?

1624
01:31:28,083 --> 01:31:30,000
-[Baker] I love you, Carrie.
-Goodbye, Dad.

1625
01:31:31,166 --> 01:31:32,000
[sighs]

1626
01:31:36,125 --> 01:31:37,125
Okay.

1627
01:31:37,750 --> 01:31:38,958
[sighs]

1628
01:31:41,041 --> 01:31:43,208
[man 2] Sir, I insist that you leave.

1629
01:31:43,291 --> 01:31:45,291
[helicopter whirring]

1630
01:31:45,375 --> 01:31:47,208
[Lindsay] Sir, sorry.
I've transferred the call.

1631
01:31:47,291 --> 01:31:48,500
You need to leave now.

1632
01:31:48,583 --> 01:31:50,166
-[man 2] Sir.
-[Baker clears throat]

1633
01:31:54,041 --> 01:31:55,916
[sirens blaring]

1634
01:31:58,208 --> 01:32:01,166
[Brady] We've already lost
one American city today.

1635
01:32:02,708 --> 01:32:05,833
-How many more do you wanna risk?
-What kind of fucking question is that?

1636
01:32:07,625 --> 01:32:10,083
This is insanity, okay?

1637
01:32:10,166 --> 01:32:11,083
[Brady] No, sir.

1638
01:32:13,125 --> 01:32:14,625
This is reality.

1639
01:32:15,166 --> 01:32:17,041
Six minutes to impact.

1640
01:32:19,083 --> 01:32:22,500
-[President] What's your name?
-Lieutenant Commander Reeves, sir.

1641
01:32:24,208 --> 01:32:25,833
[President] How old are you, man?

1642
01:32:25,916 --> 01:32:27,750
Uh, 32, sir.

1643
01:32:28,333 --> 01:32:29,583
[President] Got a family?

1644
01:32:31,208 --> 01:32:32,625
[Reeves] I have a wife, sir.

1645
01:32:39,958 --> 01:32:41,458
[tires squeal]

1646
01:32:45,083 --> 01:32:47,083
[helicopter whirring]

1647
01:32:57,333 --> 01:32:58,708
[Ken] Icon arriving.

1648
01:33:20,708 --> 01:33:23,000
[man] Andrews tower,
Marine One taking off.

1649
01:33:34,375 --> 01:33:35,666
[Reeves] Eighty-nine targets,

1650
01:33:35,750 --> 01:33:39,125
mostly military installations
and leadership sites.

1651
01:33:39,208 --> 01:33:42,541
As of last month,
we have a B-2 squadron forward-deployed.

1652
01:33:42,625 --> 01:33:44,958
We'll also employ our Ohio-class subs,

1653
01:33:45,041 --> 01:33:49,375
each with 24 Trident II D5
MIRV-equipped ballistic missiles.

1654
01:33:50,083 --> 01:33:52,833
This option calls for
a dozen Minutemen as well, out of Warren.

1655
01:33:52,916 --> 01:33:55,083
How does this make sure
we're not hit again?

1656
01:33:55,958 --> 01:33:58,333
When I woke up this morning,
we were certain

1657
01:33:58,833 --> 01:34:01,500
the North Koreans
could not launch from a sub.

1658
01:34:01,583 --> 01:34:03,250
Now maybe they can. What the fuck?

1659
01:34:03,333 --> 01:34:05,791
[Reeves] The plan assumes
our target list is incomplete.

1660
01:34:05,875 --> 01:34:08,458
But by taking out the most critical
command and control centers,

1661
01:34:08,541 --> 01:34:09,625
it lowers the chance…

1662
01:34:09,708 --> 01:34:13,083
Or it provokes one, right?

1663
01:34:14,291 --> 01:34:15,333
Um…

1664
01:34:16,333 --> 01:34:20,375
My job is to explain your options and
execute your orders. I'm not qualified--

1665
01:34:20,458 --> 01:34:22,708
You carry this all day.
I've never seen it before.

1666
01:34:22,791 --> 01:34:25,875
It's like a fucking diner menu.
I'm asking for your help, son.

1667
01:34:26,833 --> 01:34:28,750
[foreboding music playing]

1668
01:34:29,541 --> 01:34:33,250
I actually call them
rare, medium, and well-done.

1669
01:34:35,500 --> 01:34:38,541
-It's sick, I know.
-Illustrates the point.

1670
01:34:40,166 --> 01:34:42,750
I sit still. Do nothing for now.

1671
01:34:43,250 --> 01:34:46,791
You can.
Hope this is a fluke or a one-off.

1672
01:34:46,875 --> 01:34:49,000
That whoever did this just stops.

1673
01:34:57,416 --> 01:34:58,916
God give you any answers?

1674
01:34:59,541 --> 01:35:00,458
Uh…

1675
01:35:00,958 --> 01:35:03,041
Not looking for one, sir. I just…

1676
01:35:04,083 --> 01:35:05,500
Sorry, sir.

1677
01:35:05,583 --> 01:35:07,958
Don't apologize. I go to church. I just…

1678
01:35:09,833 --> 01:35:11,333
I haven't for a while.

1679
01:35:13,208 --> 01:35:16,791
I always thought having you
follow me around with that book of plans

1680
01:35:16,875 --> 01:35:18,416
for weapons like that…

1681
01:35:18,916 --> 01:35:20,958
Just being ready is the point, right?

1682
01:35:21,041 --> 01:35:24,041
Keeps people in check.
Keeps the world straight.

1683
01:35:24,125 --> 01:35:28,750
If they see how prepared we are,
no one starts a nuclear war, right?

1684
01:35:29,250 --> 01:35:32,375
Like you said before, it's insanity.

1685
01:35:33,875 --> 01:35:35,125
But someone did.

1686
01:35:36,458 --> 01:35:37,958
So none of this makes sense.

1687
01:35:39,416 --> 01:35:40,875
Unless it was a mistake.

1688
01:35:40,958 --> 01:35:42,166
[Reeves] But the genie's out.

1689
01:35:42,833 --> 01:35:46,041
If we do nothing, the bad guys see
that they can get away with it.

1690
01:35:47,875 --> 01:35:49,500
I listened to this podcast,

1691
01:35:50,333 --> 01:35:52,125
and the guy said, uh,

1692
01:35:52,208 --> 01:35:55,875
"It's like we all built
a house filled with dynamite."

1693
01:35:57,166 --> 01:35:59,333
Making all these bombs
and all these plans, and

1694
01:35:59,833 --> 01:36:01,833
the walls are just ready to blow.

1695
01:36:02,416 --> 01:36:04,041
But we kept on living in it.

1696
01:36:14,000 --> 01:36:17,166
If you're gonna hit back, sir…

1697
01:36:20,375 --> 01:36:21,708
MAO7

1698
01:36:22,833 --> 01:36:24,083
or MAO9.

1699
01:36:25,458 --> 01:36:28,500
End it now, once and for all.

1700
01:36:29,833 --> 01:36:32,250
It's the best chance
some of us survive this.

1701
01:36:37,625 --> 01:36:40,166
[Brady] Mr. President,
we're going to need your decision.

1702
01:36:40,833 --> 01:36:43,833
Lieutenant Commander Reeves
is your strike advisor

1703
01:36:44,541 --> 01:36:47,750
and can walk you through
the authentication process.

1704
01:36:47,833 --> 01:36:52,125
Then you'll need to read aloud
an attack option designation.

1705
01:36:52,208 --> 01:36:53,958
[helicopter whirring]

1706
01:36:56,958 --> 01:36:59,375
Reid, I need you…

1707
01:37:01,083 --> 01:37:02,291
What do you think, Reid?

1708
01:37:03,958 --> 01:37:05,333
Wait. Did we lose him?

1709
01:37:05,916 --> 01:37:08,833
Good morning, Mr. Secretary.
We're prepped and ready for takeoff.

1710
01:37:08,916 --> 01:37:10,458
Sir, where are you going?

1711
01:37:11,041 --> 01:37:12,625
No, no, no, no, no, sir!

1712
01:37:13,166 --> 01:37:14,333
Holy shit!

1713
01:37:14,916 --> 01:37:16,083
What was that?

1714
01:37:17,375 --> 01:37:21,500
Mr. President?
It's Jake, uh, again, sir. Uh, Baerington.

1715
01:37:21,583 --> 01:37:23,791
I just spoke
to the Russian foreign minister.

1716
01:37:23,875 --> 01:37:27,041
He denies their responsibility
for the launch.

1717
01:37:27,833 --> 01:37:31,375
Said he spoke to Beijing,
and he doesn't think it was them either.

1718
01:37:33,500 --> 01:37:36,000
-I believed him, sir.
-You did?

1719
01:37:37,500 --> 01:37:38,541
They gonna back down?

1720
01:37:38,625 --> 01:37:40,541
[Baerington] Sir, I think
that they want to.

1721
01:37:41,625 --> 01:37:44,166
And if we can guarantee
that we will not retaliate,

1722
01:37:44,250 --> 01:37:45,750
I think I can, uh…

1723
01:37:47,208 --> 01:37:49,583
we can convince them.

1724
01:37:49,666 --> 01:37:52,291
-What… what does that mean?
-[Baerington] That we don't launch.

1725
01:37:52,791 --> 01:37:54,041
Against anyone.

1726
01:37:54,750 --> 01:37:55,833
For now, at least.

1727
01:37:55,916 --> 01:37:58,666
So we just sit back
and watch Chicago incinerate?

1728
01:37:59,250 --> 01:38:02,500
Are you kidding me? Do you think
the American people are gonna go for that?

1729
01:38:02,583 --> 01:38:05,625
[Baerington] Sir, the… the warhead,
it might still malfunction.

1730
01:38:05,708 --> 01:38:07,166
They do that sometimes.

1731
01:38:07,250 --> 01:38:09,833
Did he agree to these terms?

1732
01:38:10,333 --> 01:38:13,166
All right, we do nothing,
they back off for certain?

1733
01:38:13,250 --> 01:38:15,000
-[Baerington] More or less.
-More or less?!

1734
01:38:15,708 --> 01:38:17,291
-Jake.
-[Baerington] Yes, sir.

1735
01:38:17,375 --> 01:38:19,125
[President] I'm gonna need you to breathe.

1736
01:38:19,208 --> 01:38:20,458
[Baerington] I'm breathing fine.

1737
01:38:20,541 --> 01:38:23,916
Good 'cause my job is
to make this decision. I wish it weren't.

1738
01:38:24,416 --> 01:38:27,833
And your job is to tell me
exactly what he agreed to.

1739
01:38:28,458 --> 01:38:29,458
All right?

1740
01:38:30,208 --> 01:38:33,000
-No bullshit. Can you do that?
-[Baerington] He didn't agree to anything.

1741
01:38:33,083 --> 01:38:34,958
He said he needed
to speak with his president.

1742
01:38:35,541 --> 01:38:37,833
[Brady] Sounds to me
like we know nothing new.

1743
01:38:37,916 --> 01:38:39,166
[Baerington] Wrong, General.

1744
01:38:39,250 --> 01:38:40,666
If we do what he's asking,

1745
01:38:40,750 --> 01:38:42,916
if we hold back,
there's at least a chance.

1746
01:38:43,000 --> 01:38:44,750
[Brady] Two minutes and 30 seconds.

1747
01:38:44,833 --> 01:38:50,166
Jake, I do what you're suggesting,
I let whoever did this get away with it.

1748
01:38:50,916 --> 01:38:52,875
How is that any different
from surrendering?

1749
01:38:52,958 --> 01:38:54,916
[Baerington] Sir,
if you wanna look at it that way,

1750
01:38:55,666 --> 01:38:57,833
then I'm telling you your choices are

1751
01:38:57,916 --> 01:38:59,708
surrender or suicide.

1752
01:39:00,875 --> 01:39:02,875
[foreboding music playing]

1753
01:39:09,750 --> 01:39:11,125
I'm gonna need a minute.

1754
01:39:13,958 --> 01:39:15,375
[elephant trumpets]

1755
01:39:18,875 --> 01:39:20,208
[animal roars]

1756
01:39:21,125 --> 01:39:24,375
[animal roaring]

1757
01:39:29,125 --> 01:39:30,291
[man] Yes, sir.

1758
01:39:30,375 --> 01:39:31,666
-Ma'am.
-[First Lady] Yeah.

1759
01:39:31,750 --> 01:39:33,458
It's the president. Sounds urgent.

1760
01:39:37,083 --> 01:39:39,000
Hey, hon. Is everything okay?

1761
01:39:41,166 --> 01:39:42,166
What?

1762
01:39:44,750 --> 01:39:46,416
[animal roars]

1763
01:39:49,166 --> 01:39:50,666
[First Lady] Did you say nuclear?

1764
01:39:51,458 --> 01:39:52,958
Oh my God.

1765
01:39:54,333 --> 01:39:56,083
Oh my God, I don't know.

1766
01:40:00,541 --> 01:40:02,333
They want me to retaliate.

1767
01:40:04,041 --> 01:40:08,291
It's a lot of lives. A lot of lives.
And if I don't…

1768
01:40:11,541 --> 01:40:12,708
Are you there?

1769
01:40:14,291 --> 01:40:15,458
Are you there?

1770
01:40:16,083 --> 01:40:17,083
Ali.

1771
01:40:18,000 --> 01:40:19,500
[First Lady] Can you get him back?

1772
01:40:20,333 --> 01:40:21,916
-Alison.
-[First Lady] I…

1773
01:40:22,000 --> 01:40:23,000
You did what?

1774
01:40:23,625 --> 01:40:25,041
-[phone beeps]
-This fucking…

1775
01:40:37,125 --> 01:40:38,375
All right, I'm here.

1776
01:40:39,083 --> 01:40:41,500
-You'll need your SAS card, sir.
-[President] Oh.

1777
01:40:47,708 --> 01:40:48,708
Right.

1778
01:40:49,458 --> 01:40:51,291
Reminds me of when I was in college.

1779
01:40:54,291 --> 01:40:56,666
[Reeves] You just, uh, read it aloud.

1780
01:40:59,083 --> 01:41:01,833
November, Delta, Oscar.

1781
01:41:02,416 --> 01:41:05,583
One, one, one, seven.

1782
01:41:05,666 --> 01:41:08,541
-[Brady] November, Delta, Oscar.
-Let me see that.

1783
01:41:08,625 --> 01:41:10,958
[Brady] One, one, one, seven.

1784
01:41:12,875 --> 01:41:15,166
National command authority confirmed.

1785
01:41:16,833 --> 01:41:18,666
Your orders, Mr. President?

1786
01:41:19,416 --> 01:41:20,583
My orders?

1787
01:41:30,041 --> 01:41:32,708
[woman] Joe! Joe, come on! Joe!

1788
01:41:32,791 --> 01:41:34,791
[alarm blaring]

1789
01:41:35,625 --> 01:41:37,625
[jets passing]

1790
01:41:40,708 --> 01:41:42,708
-[man] Form a line.
-[woman 2] Get your IDs out.

1791
01:41:42,791 --> 01:41:44,250
Keep it orderly, folks.

1792
01:41:44,333 --> 01:41:45,916
[man 2] Keep moving, man.

1793
01:41:46,000 --> 01:41:47,916
Have your IDs ready.

1794
01:41:48,000 --> 01:41:49,916
Bus three is full! Send it!

1795
01:41:50,833 --> 01:41:52,250
Room for two more on seven.

1796
01:41:53,750 --> 01:41:56,416
-Sorry, she's not on the list.
-[man 3] This way. Come on.

1797
01:41:56,916 --> 01:41:58,625
[woman] Keep it orderly, folks!

1798
01:41:59,791 --> 01:42:02,750
-[man 2] Bus four is ready. Send it.
-[woman] Get your IDs out.

1799
01:42:03,875 --> 01:42:05,333
[man 2] Have your IDs ready.

1800
