(telephone rings) how are you? fine, except my married ex-boyfriend keeps calling me. i know you hate me. i know you don't even want to be in the same room with me, but you have to forgive me. (olivia) how's your pregnant wife? tell me what to do, and i'll do it. let me go. red button. oh, come on, senator. he was nowhere near to pushing that-- our president was about to push that big, red, scary-as-hell button and take us to war in east sudan on faulty, irresponsible intelligence. which he quickly realized... (sighs heavily) and took the appropriate steps-- by firing the c.i.a. director that he himself appointed five minutes ago. what does it say for the people that he surrounds himself with? this president's more in bed with special interests than the last three commanders in chief combined. here we go. same old democrat partisan-- just look at the white house logs, senator. they read like a who's who of big pharma, n.r.a., insurance companies, oil tycoons like hollis doyle are running around like they own the place. now i think the american people deserve to know what is a man like that

a-- and you'll get to respond to that in a moment, senator gilbert, after we take this short break. (phone rings) let me guess--some third cousin died, then you went out of the country. you're wearing pinstripes. yeah, see, that doesn't explain the three years of not returning my calls. pinstripes on prime time? oh. you joined the fashion police. that's where you've been. i don't care what you wear. just know that no one will hear a word you're saying when your suit is moving, vibrating across their screen. also, you're sighing every time senator gilbert speaks. don't. it makes you seem condescending and elitist, which frankly, doesn't exactly matter, because i'm way too distracted by the-- pinstripes. yeah. so... am i in? am i finally a client of olivia pope and associates? (chuckles) you agree i'm obviously in need of your expertise. good luck, senator. you take care, liv. (clatters) (keys jangling) (alarm chirps) (sighs) (keys jangle) (rustle)

(projector and camera shutter clicking) arthur "artie" hornbacher-- low-level n.s.a. data entry specialist. kept the same job, same salary, for 16 years, which is either admirable or pathetic, depending on your definition of success. easy menial job which allows him time to follow his true passion as an online crusader. against what? every coffee chain in america. according to artie, the decaffeination process is a lie, and a coordinated government/corporate deception. (whistles) i was doing data entry, same thing i always do, grouping batches by source and entry point-- riyadh, tel aviv, cairo, milan--

suddenly, it's columbus, philly, portland. the addresses? they're--they're all domestic. do you know what that means? big brother. the eye in the sky. millions of americans are being watched right now, and they have no idea. you told your supervisors about this? of course i did, repeatedly, and they said they'd look into it, and then suddenly, i'm being followed. so i took it, okay? i took proof of thorngate. maybe it was a mistake, but-- (scoffs) maybe? but i did it, so now you have to hide me, because these people-- they won't just kill me. they'll make it look like i never existed. he's also lactose-intolerant, allergic to grass, honey, strawberries, peanuts, is a type 1 diabetic, and believes that vaccines are demonic. it's just a report on border security. it's just the firewall. the n.s.a. protected this program with everything in their arsenal, in case it ever got stolen, like right now. seriously, liv, he's certifiable. we can't take this guy on as a client. just 'cause he's weird doesn't mean he's crazy. he thinks the n.s.a.'s trying to kill him. my story didn't make any sense at first. still doesn't. everyone thought that i was crazy, too. still do.

(chuckles) who is artie hornbacher? just one of your low-level employees. complained to his bosses, claiming your agency is using a program called thorngate to spy on americans. ring a bell? wow. that would be something, wouldn't it? um, i'm not familiar with this employee or this program, but i can assure you that we take these accusations very seriously, and we encourage our employees, from data entry all the way to the top, to speak freely if they witness any abuse or wrongdoings by their colleagues here at the n.s.a. you know, let me check with our oversight board and see if they've heard anything. thanks, but i don't think it's necessary. there's a 99% chance artie was a nut job, and you just gave me my last 1%. sorry to bother. no bother at all. thanks, corinne. very nice to meet you.

with downpours at times. and that can even continue into monday evening. accu-weather forecast tonight, partly to mostly cloudy. 49. we are 50 at 7:00 in the morning. heading into the afternoon. mostly cloudy. still mild out there. the temperature getting up to 60 after we set the clocks forward which you will do before heading the bed. the sunsets at 7:01:00 p.m. how about that? chilly rain developing tonight southwest to northeast. 42 degrees for your low. day forecast. it is raw, rainy on monday. 45 for a high. there will be clouds, a few some breaks of sunshine possible late in the day that could propel temperatures into the upper 50s . by saint patrick's day. increasing clouds. a couple of showers, but still 60. maybe some more unsettled

yeah, i just-- i just borrowed it. (chuckles) (clears throat) you got back in, cracked thorngate a second time. no small feat. (sighs) i didn't need thorngate to find you. the watch is old, and it has radium in it, which is bad for you and very easy to track. i warned you not to touch my stuff, didn't i, artie? we can split the money. all right? you'd never have to work again. oh, i like my work. (whooshes) oh! oh. (groans) ohh. (gasps) (groans) tranquilizer should wear off in a few minutes. we'll talk more then. (projector and camera shutter clicking)
