  Aaron Shore : Against what's supposed to be the most network on Earth?

  Seth Wright : The public is gonna consider this another attack.

  Aaron Shore : Yeah, that's why the public can't find out about this. There's too much chaos as it is. This just can't get out.

  Tom Kirkman : So we have no idea what they were after, or if our files were compromised.

  Mike Ritter : Not yet, sir. NSA's still completing their scans of all the White House computers.

  Tom Kirkman : Do we have any idea who might have done this?

  Mike Ritter : Could be the Russians. Could be the North Koreans.

  Tom Kirkman : Or the people who bombed the Capitol Building.

  Mike Ritter : Yes, sir. We're following every lead.

  Tom Kirkman : Okay, thank you, Mike. Keep me updated.

• Tom Kirkman : The NSA and Homeland Security just finished their analysis on the hack.

  Mike Ritter : All of our data, files, codes; everything's intact.

  Tom Kirkman : No. They left something behind.

  Alex Kirkman : Oh, really? Because I think my teenage son is dealing drugs. Possession with intent to distribute, and that is a felony. Penny found it. Do you know what would have happened to her if she'd taken even one of those?

  Leo Kirkman : What... I mean, she's eight. It's not like she's stupid.

  Alex Kirkman : And what's your excuse?

  Mike Ritter : [entering]  Ma'am, the motorcade for President Richmond's funeral is waiting.

  Alex Kirkman : Of course.

  [to Leo as she leaves] 

  Alex Kirkman : We are not done.
