Until Maury shows up with the envelope, lets break it all down.
And man, does that lead to quite the explosion.
Explosion of thought, not of the Capitol, because…you know…thats already been done.

President Kirkman kind of apologizes, but hes getting good at using the whole Im president now excuse.
They immediately think it has something to do with Nassars death, but theyhaveto stop that logic.
Clearly its not holding much water.
The president considers shutting the elections down but instead opts to inspect every polling place.
With no other options, Kirkman orders for the elections to be cancelled.
The president responds just like I did…with a strong upper lip but a broken heart.
But once America sees Kirkman voting, they turn out in droves.
It reminds me of a likely misquoted sentiment from some inspirational figure saying, Leadership is not taught.
Its earned by facing your fear of toxic terrorism.
Its pretty jarring for Leo, as youd expect.
The president tries to explain his way out of it, but Leoisntinto it.
Alex tries to explain the situation, but Leo isnt really into logic right now, either.
Amid all that toxin business, Kirkman instructs Seth to find out why Leo was confronted at school.
Thats when he reveals it was Lisa who turned him on to the story.
The president tells Leo hellalwaysbe his son, but hes not interested in opening the results.
However, if Leo wants to, he understands why.
He didnt meet his father until he was 3, when his mother married him.
Leo goes to his fathers office the next day with a sealed envelope.
You read that right father and sealed because blood isnotthicker than water.
Family is what you make of it, and thats what the holiday season is about.
After finally coming in, he tells Hannah a lie about Lukes whereabouts because that was rule no.
Its a nosy bunch, yall.
Immediately afterward, she calls back into the CIA to trace the text and get a number.
She says if thats his plan, shell ensure she takes them both down at the same time.
Its bold, but Rep. Huckleberry is one who might be able to pull it off.
