The Election Goes On!

[Hitchcoc · 8/10 · 16 July 2019]

Kirkman realizes that he needs a legislative branch. The House of Representatives must be rebuilt. So we move quickly to the elections. But forces begin to work to keep this from happening. At this time the assistant director of the FBI becomes part of kidnapping plot, his son the victim. We also get to know what the Senator who was found in the rubble of the Capitol is up to. Some of this needs to get going because the President needs to have some leverage at some point. We also get down to the issue of the birth of the President's son and its implications.

Time for elections so that a new congress may be chosen as the government begin to function once more.

Naturally, on the eve of the voting, it is discovered that terrorists have sent some poison into Kansas which proves fatal to one of the poll workers.

Kirkman considers postponing the elections, but with the daughter of the deceased poll worker giving a passionate plea, and early voting rates enormous, he recants as we see the best of democracy in action.

What's going on with that agent? His son is being held hostage and he is now jailed for espionage? There is plenty of explaining to do before this show goes on winter hiatus.

This just got stupid

All the intense and somewhat intelligent build-up just got flushed down the toilet and the plot turned into something really cheap, unbelievable and uninventive, perhaps fit for some daytime network bread-and-butter series like JAG, NCIS or S. W. A. T. It's certainly no Homeland or anything above what suspension of belief is capable of overcoming. It's a totally different series as of this episode and now I have to deal with separation without closure.

Not believable

No way he wouldnt get in the Pentagon. I like this show but its pretty fake in security.
