In the wake of a surprising announcement, everything at the White House is shaken up. A decision must be made about whether to go to war.
Claire is furious that Frank announced he would resign without consulting her before. Frank states that this was the only way out, and that everything has gone according to his plan, a plan that was developed at Elysian Fields. Frank plans on holding on to power with Frank on the outside in the private sector and Claire on the inside in the White House. Frank also reveals that he was the leak, and has been working with Doug to feed Hammerschmidt information. Frank says that Claire will have to pardon him and Doug, however.
