Madam Secretary - Season 1 Edit

A bad situation for an athlete.

A bath and a glass of wine."

A friendship with the president.

A guy I can't really ask about.

A little high strung, but I think he'll settle in.

A nice, small family.

A politician in this post.

A stylist?

A two hour interview.

A woman's perspective is such an important thing...

About an hour ago.

About something else. She's 15.

About that French literature class?

About the King of Swaziland visit.

Absolutely not.

Acts of terrorism against the Syrian people.

Actually, that's fine.

After lunch, okay?

Ah, the land of 10,000 lakes, right?

Alert me two hours out.

Ali hated living

All of the above.

All right, compare and contrast to the original

All right.

All right.

An official op... it's got too many moving parts.

And "conflicted"?

And Bongeka.

And changed her hairstyle, too!

And convince me.

And essence are separate things, right?

And every morning we wake up,

And food.

And Gordon Becker, respectively.

And his family out of Chechnya during the revolution?

And his family were going to.

And his royal family.

And I feel like I let Conrad down.

And I'm advising you.

And I'm showing you the way out.

And if it were my son

And if that doesn't work, I'm reminding you

And if the kids are executed?

And Instagram to demonstrate poverty

And it looked like she went

And it's been a little awkward ever since

And its most beautiful Secretary of State.

And no goats were harmed.

And obvious love of family understands

And plan parties for potentates.

And poor treatment of women.

And President Shiraz's upcoming visit to the U.S.?

And say a lot of things at an elevated level.

And since I'm the only one who can talk about work,

And stress the importance of non communication.

And tensions are easing up

And the FBI says they haven't either.

And the most important peace talks in recent memory.

And the secretary of defense

And then the kids never came to the table.

And then the world has to stop

And there's no reason

And they do not want to be isolated

And think our private thoughts.

And this is obviously their next move.

And this just came in.

And trust you with our children's lives.

And uncovered a bank account in Caracas.

And waking me up.

And we need to ask

And what about your family, Madam Secretary?

And what's the right thing?

And when the special forces made their way inside the structure,

And you guys should talk.

And you have no shortage of that.

And you're awesome.

And you're sure that I didn't push us into this?

And you're the only person I can trust.

And...

And... are you really happy at Georgetown?

Andiswa

Another time for you to swing by?

Answer the question.

Any idea what the Syrians think they're up to?

Any time alone with the president?

Apparently they saw a window. They felt they had to move.

Aquinas also said,

Are coming to town and they're very needy.

Are you kidding me? I love Georgetown.

As chief of staff, when I speak,

As our roles are clear.

As we move toward a more

As we've raised them to be.

As your sons are finding out

Ash Sham isn't a jihadist group.

At this point.

Barring unanticipated complications.

Basically, it's a seniority system.

Be careful, Bess.

Because I

Because I need to get my résumé in order.

Because it's my job, it's not yours...

Because of the peace talks with Iran

Because who wouldn't take this job?

Because you hired me.

Because you're both with other people.

Before it stops feeling like home.

Before it went bust.

Being a religion professor at a Jesuit university?

Besides, it's Saturday.

Bess, I'm telling you, I'm fully legit now.

Blake?

Blake? I'm Roxanne Majidi.

Blake? Where the hell is he anyway?

Boy, I shouldn't have come.

Brothers from Hartford, Connecticut.

But a new outfit isn't really a global event.

But be advised they probably won't have much to say.

But going forward?

But how how do we take their pages down?

But I take your point.

But I was sent by the chief of staff

But I won't take

But if anything were to get out in the press,

But it certainly doesn't make them jihadists.

But it's actually more like 15,000.

But lately it hasn't been at the forefront

But our team on the ground made a positive I.D.

But the guy was dirty.

But their immediate goal is to overthrow

But we had no idea they'd cross into Syria.

But we used to have weeknight sex.

But when are they going to run it?

But you know what, their boss had just died.

But you're gonna have to work with us.

But you're in a system now.

But, um, I don't need a stylist.

But... but isn't there a power to speaking out?

By blatantly circumnavigating your authority?

By definition, departed from him

By going around me.

By not insisting that he do the right thing.

By the time it gets out, if it does,

Call the American embassy.

Call the American embassy.

Call the State Department.

Can I be "cautiously optimistic"?

Can't confirm or deny.

Captured and rightfully

Car is waiting for you outside when you're ready.

Certainly, a man of your education

Come inside.

Come on.

Congratulations.

Conrad...?

Cultural diversity.

Deny the validity of the video.

Depends on how big

Despite its decline in other developing nations.

Did we do the right thing?

Did you want to hear more of that?

Distributing relief among the suffering masses.

Do you have children?

Do you hear what you just did?

Do you know how volatile

Do you know what happens when that gets out?

Do you want this to become an issue?

Do you want to come in and have a drink?

Doesn't make them geniuses,

Don't draw attention.

Don't take it personally.

Dude, that's three things.

Early on in your reign,

Elihu B. Washburne, under President Grant.

Engagement for now.

Enjoy your parents.

Enjoy your stay.

Ethan and Tyler Cole,

Ethan's not political at all.

Every time I got a reply from Russell Jackson's office.

Everything okay?

Everything's fine.

Exactly like complaining.

Excuse me, that was your failed attempt as well.

Fifteen.

Fine.

First installment with confirmation

For the last couple of years.

For the opportunity to expose the world

Four guys, special ops.

French, German, Arabic, Farsi...

Fringe lunatics, the kids are...

From the Czech ambassador.

George is dead.

George is the only one on a Middle East desk right now.

George, they sweep it every day.

Give us a minute, will you?

Global thinking society?

Good morning.

Good morning.

Good.

Good.

Great. Also, I'll need an extension. My parents

Guess we'll find out.

Hank.

Happen to know people in the...

Has been positive, most people saying...

Has continued to grow in your country

Has gone completely off the grid?

Has it hit the news cycle?

Have you even slept?

He asked Tyler to go with him.

He does do texts.

He has this idea he's going

He just needs to take a breath.

He majored in Arabic studies.

He never called back.

He never looks back.

He refers me to Russell Jackson.

He said, "Don't be a fool. You're gonna die here."

He says it's urgent.

He sees it as a threat to his authority.

He speaks Farsi and Arabic, fluently.

He told me that we could effect real change in the world.

He wants to play music and pick up girls.

He was headed to Caracas, Venezuela.

He was on his way to meet someone.

He was pretty insistent.

He would leave it in port forever."

He's a brilliant kid.

He's a good analyst.

He's brilliant.

He's doing good work.

He's not really a breather.

He's outside.

He's still invested in personnel, so...

Hello, Pavel.

Hey, Blake, on a scale of one to ten,

Hey, buddy.

Hey, can I talk to you about my thesis?

Hey, listen to me.

Hey, listen. Did you remember you got to cook tonight?

Hey, listen. Did you remember you got to cook tonight?

Hey, why don't we all take a seat

Hey, wise guy, I'll be Socrates.

Hey!

Hey.

Hi. Congratulations on your new position.

Honey, it's gonna take some time

How am I supposed to do that when I can get

How big is the team?

How could you do that without my knowledge?

How direct?

How do you want to frame it?

How does that help?

How is the, uh, bucolic life going?

How long have you been here?

How many e mails did you send him?

How much does Nadine hate me?

How much is this costing, Nadine?

How unsuccessful?

How would I take advantage of that?

How'd you get by my security detail?

How's George doing by the way with the new desk job?

Huh?

Humor me, will you?

I am appealing to your humanity.

I am feeling very... humane.

I am generally speaking for the president.

I am honored to have 23 children.

I believe I can effect real change in the world.

I came here to do the job

I can get you caviar and vodka.

I can make that work.

I can't believe he's stupid enough

I can't believe that with everything going on

I can't risk going back to Russia.

I can't tell you.

I can't. Your place is probably bugged.

I could have gotten you an invitation,

I could see him doing something like this.

I decoded some of his personal correspondence

I didn't realize

I didn't uproot my life and my family

I do. I have a son

I don't have time

I don't think it's enough.

I don't understand... what'd he say?

I don't want him being caught off guard

I don't want to do that again.

I feel better already.

I gave it a shot, okay? I mean, he ran

I gave the detail leader his first job.

I get to be

I got the president to sign off.

I guess the Syrians

I had some unfinished business.

I hated religion before I took his class.

I have a rough first draft.

I have an appointment with the secretary.

I have reason to believe

I have two teenagers.

I heard you guys tongued

I I don't know.

I I really don't think it's necessary.

I just do as I'm told.

I kind of like it.

I know how to handle it.

I know how you think, how you work.

I know she stays up late.

I know some people on the ground.

I know that you're aware

I know the right people, we have to do it my way.

I know their names.

I know those guys.

I know you have

I know you won't let me down.

I know.

I like it here, okay?

I looked it up.

I made an unofficial move on the situation in Syria.

I make a much better ally than opponent.

I mean, no offense, Mom,

I mean, normally, I love the opera, but I got to tell you,

I mean, they could at least have

I mean, we have to go

I mean, we knew they would go as far as Turkey,

I might have inadvertently reversed those.

I need to broker a deal

I need you to step back.

I realize you'll need some time

I recruited you for the CIA

I see.

I see. In what capacity?

I stand corrected.

I think I left The Company too soon.

I think it's safer and faster

I think people shouldn't fly in small planes.

I think they're taking it.

I think we're done here.

I think we've spent enough time on my look.

I think you'll find

I thought we said no gadgets at the table.

I thought we were telling each other our problems.

I thought you were gonna do something relaxing today.

I told you why.

I took responsibility for that.

I totally love

I trained you as an analyst.

I trust you.

I used your stylist, didn't I?

I want you to help me do that.

I want you to step in.

I wanted to nominate you

I was sent by the chief of staff.

I was supposed to be alerted two hours out.

I won't be so forgiving.

I'd call that obliterating protocol.

I'd like to brief him on the Syrian kidnapping.

I'd like to proceed through back channels

I'll believe it when they're in the air.

I'll do my best.

I'll get in touch with the parents

I'll give you the rest of the day.

I'll tell security to stand by.

I'm already on it.

I'm completely attracted

I'm going to chalk

I'm so sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. I really am a cultural attaché now.

I'm still working on the adjectives.

I'm sure that you can enlist the help of your wives...

I'm taking my life in my hands here,

I'm waiting.

I've charted out all ten of his wives by their names and ranks.

I've got too much of it? Because I know some men,

I've missed you.

I've never met a situation

If I could take a moment

If it hits the press.

If the State Department is gonna take this on,

If there is any reason at all

Image is a big part of the job.

Imagine that.

Imprisoned in Damascus.

In a dimly lit room with a bunch of people

In a rural area.

In a third party account.

In fact, texting my wife?

In half an hour.

In State Department history.

In Summa Theologica is that existence

In Syria for attempting to join Fatah ash Sham.

In that part of the world, right?

In the form of medical supplies

In the Middle East, the Syrians look like

In the supply closet at the Christmas party,

In the world, this is the news.

Information in the outer office.

Inside what?

Instead of around me.

Into a telephone pole.

Is already trending, Madam Secretary.

Is it my masculine energy?

Is located 20 miles outside of Damascus

Is that code for something?

Is that personal image consultant

Is that really what we're calling it?

Isn't a paradigm of virtue.

It doesn't matter whose fault it is.

It falls under

It has been a long time.

It has jihadist elements,

It has to do with Operation Stupid Kids.

It has to go up the chain of command.

It is an honor

It needs to be U.S. dollars

It should be easy enough to explain.

It was disinformation.

It was important to him.

It was on Vincent's agenda.

It was sent as an encoded e mail directly to our office.

It would be an honor to do so, Madam Secretary.

It would greatly jeopardize our efforts.

It wouldn't stop ringing, so I answered it.

It's a bad time to be without diplomatic representation.

It's a constitutionally protected right,

It's a pigsty.

It's a strong message. It'll play well in the polls.

It's a tough transition.

It's a very busy day here. Uh, why don't

It's a volatile situation.

It's all right

It's an encoded text.

It's been a hell of a week, and the thought of sitting

It's coming from the top.

It's fine. Can I be excused?

It's going to be $2 million U.S.

It's going to be half that.

It's gonna have to be

It's great.

It's just a lot... it's a lot to process, George.

It's just gonna make me fall asleep.

It's just not helpful.

It's like being a Beatle.

It's my job to advise the president.

It's not going to hit the press,

It's on the first hour of every morning talk show

It's only been two months.

It's premature.

It's the Director of the CIA.

Jason is thrilled to be living even closer

Journey of the anarchist.

Just as your cousin

Just give her some space.

Just me and the guy that can get it done.

Just take it. She sounds serious.

Just to make a point.

Just to work with the people I know.

Just went down over the Atlantic.

Keep it at bay.

Keep it within The Company.

Lebanon. I'm staring at screens

Let alone... handle a weapon.

Let me ask you something.

Let me ask you something.

Let me take the Socratic approach.

Let the Syrians know we're gonna disavow the kids,

Let's call it a nightcap.

Let's pick this up

Let's play a game called

Libya.

Lindelwa...

Listen to me.

Listening to chatter about the World Cup.

Look, is she going to fire us?

Madam Secretary,

Madam Secretary, you'll be across from him.

Madam Secretary?

Madam Secretary? It's the Czech Ambassador.

Madam Secretary.

Madam... Madam Secretary!

Majaha...

Making this trip?

Marsh had some operation going in Venezuela.

Matt, prepare a statement for tomorrow

Maybe a reference to global health issues

Maybe I should go talk to her.

Meeting with the chief of staff

Mom, do you think it was terrorism?

Money laundering, drugs, arms dealing... something.

Most of them don't speak English.

Mostly abandoned warehouses and farms.

Mr. Cole, free speech has landed us

Mr. Jackson says I'm to be

Mr. Munsey is busy cleaning up the mess on the ground.

My first choice, as well.

My job is to advise you

My kids are on the fast track for Ivy Leagues.

My son is a self proclaimed anarchist.

Neither one of them knows how to mow a lawn,

Nice work, Madam Secretary.

No double dipping in the spy pool.

No extension.

No for an answer.

No one misses Syria if it completely self destructs.

No Rules Saturday?

No way.

No witnesses.

No, I agree. That's the best case scenario.

No, I haven't forgotten.

No, ma'am. Actual goats.

No, she can't be eager. That's too Jimmy Carter.

No, we have to do it my way.

No.

No.

No.

No.

No.

No.

No.

No.

No. Absolutely not.

No. It's a mixture.

No. It's going to be that amount

Nobody's placing blame.

Nobody's placing blame.

Nolwazi,

Nomcebo,

Not a global one.

Not in Syria.

Not on the eve of Shiraz's visit

Not that I, you know, care about polls.

Not the worst outcome I could imagine.

Nothing disastrous, but now they have some leverage.

Now I have to go with Russell.

Now I'm going to call Robert Cole

Now I'm totally caught up.

Now we're calling it Operation Never Happened.

Now, Luther though a Thomist

Nussir gets the photo op,

Obviously you're serious, I just...

Of a news day it is.

Of a stylist, right?

Of abandoned factories and oil wells,

Of course.

Of global hot spots.

Of international importance?

Of our unsuccessful attempt to liberate the prisoners.

Of your political agenda.

Off the coast of Florida.

Oh, God...

Oh, I think that one goes to 11.

Oh, I think you'll figure it out.

Oh, I'm not at liberty to say.

Oh, it's from George.

Oh, that's Russell Jackson

Oh, uh, your phone.

Oh, yay!

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh. Buried in the back?

Oh. My husband bought tickets

Oh...

Okay, and now she misses her boyfriend.

Okay, I have no idea what that means.

Okay, then tell them this:

Okay.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay.

On a horse farm.

On matters of foreign policy,

On the ground... in Syria.

On the second floor.

On the wrong side of it.

One and a half. Close of business.

One helo, in and out,

Ooh! I vote no

Ooh...

Or not.

Or these athletes who are too dumb to breathe.

Or yours could be the shortest term

Our objective was to overthrow the government.

Our picture taken together?

Our, uh, former boss and complain

Our, uh, former boss and complain

Out of my choice by...

Pastured me somewhere interesting.

Polygamist.

President Nussir's completely opposed to Shiraz's visit

Probably should've brought my own staff.

Probably.

Proceeded left to my own devices.

PTA?

Really? Tell that to your cult following.

Removed off of U.S. soil for any reason.

Repeating what we know so far...

Right after I was elected. I was talked

Right now, you're "happy" and "excited."

Risking your life in the field anymore.

Same here.

Same story, sadder outcome.

Saw the error of their ways.

Saying what?

Second installment after they've landed.

Secretary of State.

Secretary of State...

See, here's the problem.

See, we were sending Ethan to Europe for graduation,

Self confident and articulate,

She's showing a little bit of leg.

Shiraz's visit is over,

Should I write it down for you?

Sibhale...

Since the confirmation hearing.

Singing at me in Italian...

Single car collision

Sir, let me get in front of this.

Sir, this is not how I would've

Sir, we can't afford to get involved in this.

Sit down!

Siviwe,

So far, I've been given the green light

So for God's sakes, Conrad, let me do it.

So I assume you tried to talk them out of

So that would be a "no."

So they grab two hapless kids and throw them in prison?

So they join a jihadist group to drive home this point.

So we're fine?

So you understand why I can't

So you'll just smile a lot.

So you're cashing in your chips?

So, how am I supposed to develop a cult following?

So, then, there's no reason to believe

So, this is the official go ahead.

Some lady says it's the president's office.

Somewhat... of speaking to the president,

Sorry to hear that.

Sorry, Bess.

Sorry.

State Department.

Stay away from the door!

Steal his brilliance for a minute?

Step into what?

Step it out for me.

Still cultural attaché.

Still, why was he going to Venezuela?

Stop overthinking things.

Such a paltry little rebellion by today's standards.

Such is the lonely

Tell her I want to see her right away.

Tell me what to say.

Temily, Dzeltwe,

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thanks for coming.

Thanks, Blake.

That exchange with the King

That is an understatement.

That is like the disco

That is not the CIA director's call.

That kind of guy.

That makes you the least political person I know.

That place.

That someone inside had it arranged.

That someone inside the White House

That sounds like a lot of work.

That the AIDS epidemic

That the kids are released.

That the Secretary of State can have any foreign diplomat

That they were somehow trying to join

That was a New York Times reporter

That wasn't an accident.

That way I don't have to yell at you for breaking protocol

That you hated your former school, too.

That you have no communication

That you knew about it and did nothing?

That you said only I could do.

That's a genie I can't put back in the bottle.

That's a shock.

That's all we got to be.

That's all.

That's how we communicate with Syria these days.

That's just the first reason.

That's really good.

That's right.

That's the whole notion behind Catholic transubstantiation.

That's what I signed up for.

That's what we were calling it.

That's why they call it history, Jake.

That's why we have to act now under the radar

The basic gist of which is "war bad, peace good."

The bedroom. I live here.

The center of attention.

The chart?

The chief of staff has told me I can sign off.

The Company.

The death of Vincent Marsh is catastrophic on many levels.

The details of me missing my boyfriend?

The dinner.

The good news is that there were no casualties

The guy's flamboyant, exotic.

The hard way.

The importance of this issue.

The Intel on the prison location was bad,

The kids are all either preppy nerds

The kids will adjust.

The King of Swaziland sits here.

The place for 12 years, I figured

The president wants me to have a stylist?

The press loves stuff like this.

The prison holding the two boys

The prison is low security.

The response to Secretary McCord's look

The secretary is busy.

The Secretary of State Vincent Marsh's plane disappeared

The Syrian government, which I think we can all agree,

The Syrian opposition movement?

The Syrians execute those kids

The Syrians want to prove that they still have teeth.

The teachers are completely unimaginative rule followers

The tide is turning,

The Times got the Coles to make a statement?

The Times got them to give

The United States.

The updated information on the AIDS epidemic in that country.

The way he conveyed it to me,

The world's focused on peace

The, uh, Secretary of State's plane

Their blog, their Facebook page,

Their eyes are glazing over.

Then you have to figure out a way to take action.

There are, uh, three hot girls.

There was no evidence that my cover was blown.

There's a tradition of sharing

There's too many things that can go wrong.

These kids are gonna die.

These kids are peace loving freedom fighters.

They all hate me as much?

They both got Africa.

They found goats.

They have an activist Web site called "One Free Earth,"

They just didn't feel like

They'll release the video. This thing goes viral,
