the columbia chapter and says stand up sunday is meant to raise awareness."if your background check is not complete or if you are just a kid and find an unlocked gun in the house, this is dangerous. this could be a tragedy."bryant and sullivan took their stand at washington street united methodist church, one of 1,300 churches participating in the state. dr. john evans led the service there and hopes the talk will inspire listeners to join in. "we're trying to keep things real simple. the first thing is to try to get our state house and our governor to begin to get serious about background checks."bryant says his son and the other victims' lives will not be in vein because they're now the very reason why change is coming.

and saturday. we're the son of a polish immigrant who grew up in a brooklyn tenement. he went to public schools, then college, where the work of his life began --

speaking truth to power. he moved to vermont, won election and praise as one of america's best mayors. in congress, he stood up for working families and for principle, opposing the iraq war, supporting veterans. now he's taking on wall street and a corrupt political system funded by over two and a half million contributions, tackling climate change to create clean-energy jobs, fighting for living wages, equal pay, and tuition-free public colleges. people are sick and tired of establishment politics, and they want real change! [ cheers and applause ] bernie sanders -- husband, father, grandfather, an honest leader building a movement with you to give us a future to believe in. i'm bernie sanders, and i approve this message. ction rigging is the day i signed my death sentence.

(huck) it wasn't hollis. someone else paid becky to kill the president. when you release hollis, i need you to wait an hour. i let him go an hour ago. the minute he's released, make it look like an accident. copy that. hold the doors! sorry. (doors close) (elevator whirring) i'm sorry. do i know you? (gun clicks) hands on your head! ho--whoa, the hell is going on here?! hollis doyle, meet charlie. charlie's here to kill you unless i kill him first, but i'm not sure i'm ready to do that yet. what do you want from me? it's what olivia wants. she wants to protect you, but first she needs you to promise her that you won't take the deal they're offering you at justice. oh, hell, that's just posturing. i wish i could believe you, but i can't, which is why instead of killing charlie and assuring your safety, i'm gonna let him live. if you keep your mouth shut, i'll be there to protect you. if you open it, he trades your head for a paycheck. do i make myself clear? (projector and camera shutter clicking) (shutter clicking) (woman) ooh. that's lovely. ma'am, can you turn him a bit? let's show america the face of baby...

we can't decide. (laughs) what about "wallace"? (laughs) wally? (baby fussing) that's the name of a child who gets beat up on the playground, right? it's a family name. (laughs) of a child who gets beat up on the playground. cousin wally did get beat up a lot. (laughs) (gasps softly) jeannine? okay, everyone, that was great. (clears throat) let's give the family a little privacy. thank you. thanks. (sighs) nurse! (sighs) thank you. (sighs) i want to spend time with my son. (singsongy) he's right here anytime you want to see him. i mean after the divorce. i want to be clear that i want to spend time with our children after the divorce. what makes you think i will ever agree to a divorce? let's be amiable about this. amiable? amiable? mellie. i married you for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, till death do us part. there will be no divorce, honey. do... not... push...

hollis doyle didn't try to have fitz killed? i almost killed an innocent man. you crossed a line. i know. i went over the edge. the power... (sighs) it goes to your head, and it's hard to pull back sometimes. i'm sorry. don't let it happen again, because next time-- listen. there won't be a next time. david rosen's not letting election rigging go. he's a dog with a bone. then we need to be bigger dogs with bigger bones. when we were trying to take down hollis, i was so ready to come clean, let the whole election rigging thing come out. i was ready to do it when it was going to hurt hollis. and now... the only person it would hurt is fitz. and, liv? he wouldn't survive knowing. it would change him. it would break him. cyrus, i've got granger on my back looking for-- olivia. mr. president.

fitz. quiet. mmm. (exhales sharply) i'm marrying edison. no, you're not. you're married. i'm getting divorced. (exhales) she just had your baby. they'll crucify you. she induced, you know. (sighs) she thinks i don't know. like i don't ask questions. she had the doctor induce four weeks before her due date. she put my son's life at risk in order to manipulate me. so even if you marry edison, i'm divorcing her. it'll take some time. she'll fight me. it might even take the rest of my presidency, but i am getting out... of this marriage. and i'm supposed to do what, wait for you? this isn't theoretical anymore, liv. it's real. say you'll wait for me. we love each other. we belong together.
