Okay. Good.

Reporter #2: Literally k*lled for this job.
I know you k*lled him, and I'm going to prove it.
I have some information.
I don't know who to talk to, but this is... Oh, my God.
It was Cyrus Beene.
He k*lled Frankie Vargas.
It's the only voicemail that went missing from the FBI tip line.
Less than a day later, her cabin exploded.
Liv, you were with me in the hospital the night of the assassination.
You saw Cyrus.
You saw how grief-stricken he was.
Just because he k*lled Frankie doesn't mean he didn't feel bad about it.
We have a suspect in custody.
Nelson McClintock? Nelson McClintock is a patsy.
The evidence against him is overwhelming.
Really?
Then why haven't you charged him yet, David?
Has he confessed?
Has he?
We're still working on it.
Of course you are, because he's innocent!
What else do you want me to do, Liv?
I sent the FBI out to the cabin.
There was no evidence.
You sent a couple of scrubs out there!
Actually, he sent the director.
And I brought an elite ERT unit with me.
We've been out there for the past 15 hours.
Director Webster.

I didn't know.
I didn't mean any offense, obviously.
Is it obvious?
Fitz: Have you found anything at that cabin to tie this woman's death to Cyrus Beene?
No, Mr. President.
And based on what you've seen, do you consider Cyrus Beene a suspect in the assassination of Frankie Vargas?
No, Mr. President.
But you're not done looking.
Yes, she is!
Mr. President...
I am not investigating Cyrus Beene based on a tip line and a blown-up cabin in the woods.

Tweets like, "Get that dumb Mexican off my television."
#PutHimDown."
We also have your prints on, well, everything...

It's more than enough proof to get a conviction.
Now, there is a way to avoid all this.
What is this?
That, my friend, is an agreement.
Confess to the k*lling of President-Elect Vargas, and we'll repay that honesty by taking the death penalty off the table.

Okay.

I had nothing to do with Frankie's death.
Absolutely... nothing.

I can do it. I just need...

And?
And... and he's old!
And he somehow loves you.

What is stopping you from accepting something that most people never have?

Because you live below the radar.
Because you're free from it.
Because you can.
You are being offered normal, maybe even happy.
The fact that you're questioning whether you should take them, frankly, it's annoying.
Live!
You get to live and love and be happy.
Do you know what some people would give...
Okay, okay. Geez.
I got it.
