Reporter: Former President
Fitzgerald Grant
arrived in Rutland, Vermont, today
to begin life out of office.
Reporter #2: You got to
wonder, what's he made of?
Will Grant go the way of Jimmy Carter
and blossom out of office
or fade away like George W. Bush?
Can you imagine such a-a charismatic,
lightning-rod figure
thriving in a small town,
being a regular Joe America?
That's not what I'm wondering.
What I want to know about is that kiss.
No, seriously, is that kiss
at the White House
today with Olivia Pope
a natural goodbye or a
sign of things to come?
- Well... we don't know.
- Ooh, well.
- Drama.
- We'll have to keep an eye on that.
- Yeah, you were thinking it, too.

All: Good morning, Mr. President.
Good morning.
Who are you?
What are those?
Mr. President, my name is Tad.
Pleasure, Ted. The boxes?
It's Tad, actually.
Mr. Walker hired me. I'm your aide.
Those boxes are some
things from the White House,
your storage unit in Santa Barbara.
Mr. Walker thought you
could get a head start
on filtering through some
things for the Grant Institute.
This is your housekeeper, Linda.
Martin is in charge of the grounds.
Jeff's going to be your chef.
Rhonda will be with you when I can't be.
Ted.
It's Tad.
Where were you working before this?
Senior Aide for Senator Boyd.
- Great guy.
- Yes, sir.
The first thing I need
you to do for me...
Anything, Sir.
Is to fire all of these good people.
Make sure everyone
gets a year's severance.
Sir?
Then I'll call Senator Boyd
and make sure you get your job back.
It... It sounds like you're firing me.
I am.
After you fire them.
This is valuable experience.
You can call me Ted. I don't mind.
Thanks for your service, Tad.
I have spent eight years
being catered to, watched over, cajoled.
I haven't carried my own pen,
gone grocery shopping.
I can count on one
hand the number of times
I've made a turkey sandwich.
I like turkey sandwiches.
I want to make my
own turkey sandwiches.
One more thing... I'm driving.
[Chuckles]
Oh, you're free to operate your vehicle
on the grounds, Sir, but...
As much as I'd love the press
to practice their pithy captions
on a shot of me driving in
circles in the backyard...
you know that's not
what I'm talking about.
No President has driven on public roads
after leaving office, Sir.
It's good to know I
can still make history.

Reporter: You've been sleeping
underneath this statue
for 10 days now.
Tell everyone why.
It's time America confronted
its violent, racist history.
General Raymond Cyst was
a Revolutionary War hero,
but he was also one of the most heinous
and vindictive slave owners on record.
He fathered slaves,
which simply sugarcoats the truth.
This man raped women he held captive
and imprisoned his own children.
Why is that not documented
alongside this monument?
Why, as a black man, should I be asked
to celebrate someone
who would have gladly
kept me in chains?
Certainly a hot take,
but how long are you
planning on staying out here?
I'll sleep in the freezing cold
until this statue comes down.
There you have it.

I cannot miss work.
And I wouldn't want

What are you talking about?
[Scoffs] Don't worry about it.
I'm not good at that.
Hotels like yours...
They're not for people like me.
It's a hotel... It's for everyone.
It's an actual pillar of
the hospitality business
to be accepting of everyone,

I show with up you,
they're gonna take one look

You'd argue with them.
I'd be embarrassed in my own city.

Right now, you're

In 2023, you'll be looking at

You did this?
Deal closed yesterday.
Took a lot of work.
But it's perfect.
I want this to be more
than just a museum.
I see a wing dedicated to Brandon Parker
and the preservation of
Civil Rights in this country.
[Chuckles]
I think that would be
great, Mr. President.
We have a real opportunity
to change lives.
Without restrictions, without politics.
This is our next chapter, Marcus.

Mellie Grant has decided
which piece of legislation
she'll attempt to tackle,
and it is, indeed, an olive branch
to the other side of the aisle.
The House is reportedly
working on an amended version
of Francisco Vargas' education bill
that would provide free
college to all Americans.
- However...
- That's ambitious.
- Mellie might need me on this.
- Can't.
The fight over this bill
is going to get ugly.
I can't imagine it would be unwelcome
if I made a statement that
helped nudge things forward,
win over the public.
100 days.
Out of respect for the new President
who's trying to step out of the shadow
of the previous President...
Whom she happened to be married to.
Also, you've got plenty to do.
- How far along are you with that list?
- [Sighs]
I hate asking people for money.
What am I offering these people?
It's all been teed up for you.
We're hosting a donor
dinner here next month.
Call them, make the invite.
250K for the plate,
then, at dinner, we talk real cash.
Some folks are willing to drop 5 mill
just to get a brick
with their name on it
in the hall of your library.
What's this?
I didn't know you were into guns.
Governor Fitzgerald Grant.
That was a gift.
From who?
What else?
You want to discuss something else?
Let's discuss Olivia.
What about Olivia?
How much is she going to
be featured in your library?
"Featured"?
I don't mean to be indelicate...
Which means you're about to be.
Monica was hardly featured
in Clinton's library,
and he caught flack for it.
You're comparing Monica
Lewinsky to Olivia Pope?
I'm not. At all.
Which is kind of the point.
Olivia worked in your White House,
advised you, ran your
campaigns, lived with you.
She was America's
first-ever First Girlfriend.
She stood tall in front
of the American people
and assured them you'd be
okay after you got shot,
and now she's the Chief of Staff
to the President that succeeded you.
Olivia is Hillary
Clinton, Beyoncé, Oprah,
and Sista Souljah all in one.
I'll play you a Sista
Souljah record sometime.
I think you reference things
you know I don't know to prove a point.
All I'm saying is Olivia is important.
People, the world...
They care about Olivia.
When I was driving in
from the airport last week,
there was a house with "Olitz"
written on the front
in Christmas lights.
- What?
- It's your name and her name, I think.
I got that. It's just... That's crazy.
We...
You need to decide which portions
of your relationship
you want to highlight
and if she gets her own wing.
Does Cyrus get his own wing?
Did you neck Cyrus on South Lawn
- in front of 40 million people?
- I spent 8 years
in the most powerful
office in the world,
running the most powerful
nation in the world,
and you're basically telling me
I've been reduced to a
man who loved a woman.
Welcome the plight of
almost every successful woman
in the history of mankind.
When's the last time you went to a bar?
Excuse me?
Let's go to a bar, get a drink.
I want to get out of the house.
[Sighs]
Luther's head is going to explode.
There's protocol and advance
work that has to be done,
and it's hard to do on the fly.
So you'll make the arrangements.
One drink, then we'll
head back and do some work.
Two beers, please.
No problem, Mr. President.
You been following this?
Crowd spiked after Kendrick
Lamar retweeted Steve.
Fitz: Brave kid.
I've seen one black person in Vermont,
and he's on TV.
You've been counting black people?
All black people count.
We like to know if people
start getting frisky
with hoods and tiki torches,
we have someone on team close by.
- [Chuckles] Thanks.
- Mm-hmm.
Mm.
That is delicious.
[Sighs]
That used to be me.
Hmm?
Five years ago, I was him... Steve.
Marcus: Raising hell, stirring the pot,
shining a light on
ignorance and injustice.
This kid is literally
willing to freeze to death
to get the attention of
the mayor and the governor.
Sounds like you miss it.
[Sighs]
Looks cold, but...
Yeah.
Maybe.
I don't know.
Did I change more people's lives
screaming up and down
the streets of Rosemead
or in the White House?
I know what I'm
supposed to think, but...
[Sighs] Honestly, I don't know.
[Sighs]
We're gonna do great things.
As soon as we can get out there,
we are gonna make a difference.
I need you.
We're a team.
Have you talked to her?
No.
You haven't spoken to Mellie?
I thought you were asking about Liv.
I haven't spoken to Olivia.
I haven't spoken to Mellie.
What happened with you two?
Ah, nah. [Laughing] Nuh-uh.
I'm not talking about
dating your ex-wife.
Isn't that what guys talk about at bars?
No.
No.
Fine.
I think Mellie's an amazing person.
She's gonna be an amazing President.
That's her focus.
She's...
focused on that.
Which I can respect.
She doesn't need any distractions.
Liv and I tried.
And tried.
She's not here.
At some point, you have to let go.
You've let go?
You think I haven't?
I'm asking.
Like I said... She isn't here.

Marcus: Six huge
donors for your library.
They've already dropped
$250,000 for the plate,
but we want more.
Jim Whale is the guy we want to target.
- Deeper pockets than the rest.
- Fitz: Got it.
I can't find my cufflinks.
Thanks.
You know, we can hire you a valet.
I like doing stuff on my own.
Steve's losing his audience.
Who?
The kid trying to get
a meeting with the mayor
to have the General
Cyst statue taken down.
The weather's getting worse.
We could easily put some pressure
on Mayor Shumpert with a meeting.
Uh, I empathize with the kid,
but the last thing we
need to do in our new town
is stick our nose into local politics.
Particularly on an issue
this complicated and divisive.
Is it? Complicated?
Let's get this over with.
[Soft piano music playing]
Fitz: To be clear, I
am not much of a golfer.
And as we walk up to the
first tee at Pebble Beach...
The Prime Minister, me,
and two-time Masters
Champion Bubba Watson...
I'm feeling okay.
But then Bubba takes
out his brand-new driver,
and he catches me eyeing it
and says I have to give it a try.
Well, I'm terrified at this point,
but he's insisting.
And I remember my dad
used to have a rule
that you don't argue
with guys named Bubba.
- [Laughter]
- So, I take it.
I tee up, address the
ball, practice swing.
Everything's feeling pretty good.
I'm thinking, "I might
pull this one off."
So, I swing that driver full force
and ground the club into the dirt
a good foot behind the ball,
take out a monster chunk of grass.
Seriously, there was, like,
a cannon exploding into
the turf at Gettysburg.
And the thing about these pro drivers
is the flex in the shaft is insane.
It's like a coiled
spring, so this damn driver
bounces out of my hand
and flies through the air.
And from that point on,
everything is in slow motion
because Bubba's club is careening toward
the Prime Minister of Japan,
specifically for the
Prime Minister's head.
And as I stand there,
staring helplessly,
only one thought is crossing my mind...
"There goes our trade deal!"
[Laughter]
What did you say?
To the Prime Minister?
What else?
I asked him for a mulligan.
[Laughter]
Cheers.
Now, that's a damn fine cigar.
Romeo y Julieta?
Courtesy of our friend Marcus.
He recently went to Cuba.
Hmm. Muchas gracias, Chico.
Fitz: Look, Jim, I
know we haven't always
seen eye-to-eye on a lot of things...
Mr. President, I underestimated you
when you were in office.
This time, I'd like to bet on you.
I'm not afraid to jump on the bandwagon.
Well, when the whiskey's dried up,
it's time for me to do
the same. [Laughs]
You know, I wouldn't
be much of a politician
if I let you leave
without writing a check.
Then I guess we're gonna
need some more whiskey.
Shouldn't have dismissed the help.

You can't fire me because I quit.
What the hell is your problem?
My problem is is that I'm stuck
in a freezing-ass town
with a lonely, sad-ass man
who can't do anything for himself.
This is because I asked you
to get a bottle of Scotch?
Did I not say please?
No. You didn't.
I'll do that next time.
That's not the point.
What is your point?
[Scoffs] Forget it.
Why are you so angry?
You have to ask?
No, not now... Always.
You're always pissed off about something.
Always wronged, always
looking for something
or someone to be angry about.
Not everyone is out to get you, Marcus.
I'm sorry, it was
inconsiderate of me, but...
Of course there's a but.
You work for me.
And you will behave professionally.
If you have a problem,
you speak to me privately.
Behave?
Behave?!
Oh, let me guess...
I said the wrong thing.
You can't control who you are.
You're just proving my point.
That I'm an angry black man.
That you're a bitter human being!
You don't know anything about me
except that I keep
your Internet running,
arrange your days out,
and laugh at your stories!
You know how many times
in the past two months
I had to hear you talk about
Bubba and his damn clubs?
Six!
Six times!
I hate Bubba Watson, and
I don't even know him!
You said we were a team.
That you needed me.
But I didn't think that meant
that I was going to
be a glorified valet!
This ain't Buckingham Palace,
and you damn sure don't
have a crown on your head.
You don't know anything about me.
You are an insane narcissist,
the worst kind of entitled
because you don't even
realize you are entitled!
I have given everything for my country.
I've heard you say that before.
Is it true? Really true?
I don't need to defend my record to you.
Your record?
Your accomplishments? Are Olivia's!
A black woman held you up,
and now you're screaming to everyone
about how well you fly.
And what does she get for that?
A stained reputation.
[Chuckles] You took the first woman
who successfully managed
a Presidential campaign
and turned her into just
another home-wrecking black ho.
I guess you can call
that an accomplishment,
except people like you
have been doing that to
black women for centuries!
I know who I am.
What I am, what I've done.
I am not constantly trying
to cultivate and maintain some image
that may have been real once,
but hasn't been for a long time.
No one begged you to get
off the streets of Rosemead
and run for mayor...
That was your choice.
No one made you jump from
OPA to the White House.
You're a phony.
If Olivia made anyone

Question, Marcus...
Did you go down to Cuba
to start a revolution?
Did you do something about
the hundreds of thousands of people
living in poverty in that country?
Or did you drink cheap rum
and lay by the pool at your fancy hotel?
You want to be an
activist, you can be one!
But you don't want to.
You want to be in the game.

Stage two?
Stage one was when he showed you
that he was passionate,
capable, inspired,
when he made you feel like
you could conquer the world with him.
You fell for Fitz Grant III.
Same way I did, same way Liv did.
Stage one.
Stage two...
You realize he is exactly
what he was raised to be...
Entitled, selfish, unmotivated.
You wonder why you're with him
and where your own life went
and why you gave it all up for him.
Stage two is long, and it is painful.
But you will survive.
And on the other end, stage three.

he has something you don't...

Reporter: You've been sleeping

Tell everyone why.
It's time America confronted
its violent, racist history.
General Raymond Cyst was
a Revolutionary War hero,
but he was also one of the most heinous
and vindictive slave owners on record.
He fathered slaves,
which simply sugarcoats the truth.
This man raped women he held captive
and imprisoned his own children.
Why is that not documented
alongside this monument?
Why, as a black man, should I be asked
to celebrate someone
who would have gladly
kept me in chains?

Mellie Grant has decided

she'll attempt to tackle,
and it is, indeed, an olive branch
to the other side of the aisle.
The House is reportedly
working on an amended version
of Francisco Vargas' education bill
that would provide free
college to all Americans.
- However...
- That's ambitious.
- Mellie might need me on this.
- Can't.
The fight over this bill
is going to get ugly.
I can't imagine it would be unwelcome

Also, you've got plenty to do.

I hate asking people for money.
What am I offering these people?
It's all been teed up for you.
We're hosting a donor
dinner here next month.
Call them, make the invite.
250K for the plate,
then, at dinner, we talk real cash.
Some folks are willing to drop 5 mill
just to get a brick
with their name on it
in the hall of your library.
What's this?
I didn't know you were into guns.
Governor Fitzgerald Grant.
That was a gift.
From who?
What else?
You want to discuss something else?
Let's discuss Olivia.
What about Olivia?
How much is she going to
be featured in your library?
"Featured"?
I don't mean to be indelicate...
Which means you're about to be.
Monica was hardly featured
in Clinton's library,
and he caught flack for it.
You're comparing Monica
Lewinsky to Olivia Pope?
I'm not. At all.
Which is kind of the point.
Olivia worked in your White House,
advised you, ran your
campaigns, lived with you.
She was America's
first-ever First Girlfriend.
She stood tall in front
of the American people
and assured them you'd be
okay after you got shot,
and now she's the Chief of Staff
to the President that succeeded you.
Olivia is Hillary
Clinton, Beyoncé, Oprah,
and Sista Souljah all in one.
I'll play you a Sista
Souljah record sometime.
I think you reference things
you know I don't know to prove a point.
All I'm saying is Olivia is important.
People, the world...
They care about Olivia.
When I was driving in
from the airport last week,
there was a house with "Olitz"
written on the front
in Christmas lights.
- What?
- It's your name and her name, I think.
I got that. It's just... That's crazy.
We...
You need to decide which portions
of your relationship
you want to highlight
and if she gets her own wing.
Does Cyrus get his own wing?
Did you neck Cyrus on South Lawn
- in front of 40 million people?
- I spent 8 years
in the most powerful
office in the world,
running the most powerful
nation in the world,
and you're basically telling me
I've been reduced to a
man who loved a woman.
Welcome the plight of
almost every successful woman
in the history of mankind.
When's the last time you went to a bar?
Excuse me?
Let's go to a bar, get a drink.
I want to get out of the house.

There's protocol and advance

Two beers, please.

Let's get this over with.
[Soft piano music playing]
Fitz: To be clear, I
am not much of a golfer.
And as we walk up to the
first tee at Pebble Beach...
The Prime Minister, me,
and two-time Masters
Champion Bubba Watson...
I'm feeling okay.
But then Bubba takes
out his brand-new driver,
and he catches me eyeing it
and says I have to give it a try.
Well, I'm terrified at this point,
but he's insisting.
And I remember my dad
used to have a rule
that you don't argue
with guys named Bubba.
- [Laughter]
- So, I take it.
I tee up, address the
ball, practice swing.
Everything's feeling pretty good.
I'm thinking, "I might
pull this one off."
So, I swing that driver full force
and ground the club into the dirt
a good foot behind the ball,
take out a monster chunk of grass.
Seriously, there was, like,
a cannon exploding into
the turf at Gettysburg.
And the thing about these pro drivers
is the flex in the shaft is insane.
It's like a coiled
spring, so this damn driver
bounces out of my hand
and flies through the air.
And from that point on,
everything is in slow motion
because Bubba's club is careening toward
the Prime Minister of Japan,
specifically for the
Prime Minister's head.
And as I stand there,
staring helplessly,
only one thought is crossing my mind...
"There goes our trade deal!"
[Laughter]
What did you say?
To the Prime Minister?
What else?
I asked him for a mulligan.
[Laughter]
Cheers.
Now, that's a damn fine cigar.

B613, if she's Command,
she's gonna do it right.
- [Scoffs]
- She'll run the whole thing differently.
Oh, she is different.
I had checks and balances.
I had limitations. Olivia has none.
It is her throne, it is her crown.
She's Command, she owns the Oval.
She is the dictator of a country
that does not know it no longer exists.
There is no American way.
There is only Olivia's way.
There is no truth.
There is only what Olivia
will have us believe.
There is no justice!
There is only Olivia
killing Vice President Luna
Vargas on Inauguration Day!
Who runs the world?
One girl.
You need to take care of this.
I left Washington.
I did my time. It's my past.
Olivia's my past.
If you're telling the truth,
if she's Command...
then you handle it.
Pay attention!
I can't handle anything.
I'm not in charge anymore.
I have no power.
Ha!
And I have to go.
She'll notice if I'm
not back before dawn.
I just want... I want...
[Sighs]
I thought I was raising a champion.
America's hope.
I really did.
Maybe I disciplined too hard,
or I taught her too well.
My child is slipping away.
The woman that we love
is disappearing into the darkness,
and I just want...
[Whimpering] help.
I need you to help me.
I need you to help her.
Pull her back before she is gone.
Decide quickly,
because she doesn't have a lot of time.

[Sighs]
What are you doing?
My dad gave me this gun.
A couple of weeks after
I was elected Governor.
It was a gift.
Okay.
Cyrus once told me, he said...
one day, when all the attention is gone,
when I'm out of office and
no one's President anymore,
I would use this gun to
blow my own brains out.
You're not.
Right?
No.
I'm not.
[Sighs]
You throw a mean punch.
[Chuckles]
I can hardly move my jaw.
[Sighs]
I said some things.
You did.
So did I.
We don't know each other very well.
We should work on that.
Yeah.
[Sighs]
Marcus.
Yeah?
Is Olivia Pope everyone's
world or just mine?
When the hundred days is up,
I need to go back to
Washington for a while.
Am I allowed to ask any questions?
You wouldn't like the answers.
Before we leave,
I'd like to do something meaningful.
I'd be happy to help you with that, Sir.
