The White House internal leak is revealed to be Emily. Emily was Kirklands Chief of staff as HUD Secretary. She feels slighted, so to get back at Kirkland , she is revealing leaks.

Holy shit! What'd you think of the very end?! What happens next?

Didn't they get the black guy alive? Jack's gonna interrogate him the Jack's way and...oh wait. Wrong show. They gonna drag their feet and eventually somebody will finish him off in a cell before they get anything.

Didn't see that coming. I thought the POTUS and VP would play cat and mouse for a few episodes.

*Spoiler

Now I guess they go after the larger conspiracy. Can't wait until the kidnappers go down. Hope it is a painful death after they killed an innocent kid.

I thought the end was absolutely stupid. Where were the secret service guys when Wells showed up? How on earth could the VP's wife get so close to Hannah/the VP without the rest of Hannah's men noticing? It's not like the VP (and his former pal) and Wells were the only people within miles.

But I do have to say I'm curious about what the VP's wife (can't remember her name) is hiding. Killing the VP and herself must mean the conspiracy is huge. Somebody above mentioned Kirkland's wife. Was this episode set up to show the beginning of their 'disconnection' or is there more to her and will she turn out to be just as ambitious as the VP's wife? (Somehow I can't see the latter happening but it did cross my mind a few times watching this episode.)
