As Kanin enters the office, the President is letting Admiral Smith know that she can not authorize the attacks "just yet", first they need to find a political replacement for Matobo. She tells Ethan the Joint Chiefs are getting impatient, but he is there on other business. Kanin finally catches her up on First Hubby's Hardy Boy/Sleuthing act and obsession with Samantha Ross. The President doesn't quite believe him at first and demands he get Henry on the phone. But that's when the news gets really bad, and he informs her that they haven't been able to reach him or Gedge. She says "Are you telling me my husband is missing?" with a look of genuine concern on her face. He tells her that the Secret Service has put out an APB and headed for the apartment. They'll know what is going on "soon enough."
Outside Samantha's apartment, Gedge's unnamed accomplice hears the APB and calls Brian's cell. I find myself oddly transfixed by the dude's hair. Based on his face, I'd say he's mid-40's, but he's totally sporting a 'surfer dude' style. It's the single worst case of "mid-life crisis" hair that I've ever seen.
Dude...buy a nice car, bang some college student, and get your ear pierced. It's a lot more productive than going around killing people!
Unfortunately, Brian is still dead dead dead and First Hubby is slowly waking up next to him. Mr. Taylor hasn't woken up next to a dude and not known what happened the night before since college, but he recognizes the gay panic immediately. Luckily, Gedge is just dead and not naked. The first Hubby picks up the ringing cell, and we see a missed call from "Vossler", which must be the name of the accomplice. First Hubby stumbles around the apartment a little and looks SHOCKED again when he notices the dead Samantha. He heads for the front door of the apartment, but Vossler is already in the hall. First Hubby attmepts to lock the door, but Vossler kicks it in! First Hubby runs over to Brian's corpse to retrieve his weapon, but Vossler over-powers him and knocks the gun away. At gunpoint, Mr. Taylor attempts to reason with Vossler. He says Brian's murder-suicide cover plan is already blown. Vossler hasn't yet killed anyone, and First Hubby pleads with him to listen to reason. He says they will be able to trace it all back to murder now and the buck will stop with Vossler. Just then, Vossler's phone rings! It's Dubaku, and he's taking public transportation. How the mighty have fallen! He's on a metro train heading out of DC and into Virginia. Yay metro! He wants to know where Gedge is, and Vossler informs him of the hiccup in their plan. Oh yeah, and Holy shit the secret service being infiltrated! When he finds out First Hubby is still alive, he orders Vossler to not kill him, and bring him to Dubaku. Now that he's lost the CIP device, First Hubby is his only bargaining chip!
When we return from break, we catch Dubaku exiting the Dupont Circle metro station which is in the heart of NorthWest DC. I find this interesting since he was last seen on a train headed Westbound out of the District, but whatever! He probably remembered he forgot to feed his goldfish and headed back home, or something.
