The new season starts just ten seconds after the last one ended, so let’s quickly recap what happened before Kate (Keri Russell) runs across the lawn after hearing about President Rayburn’s (Michael McKean) death. A lot was happening – complex plans were being made – but everything was thrown into disarray by the sudden loss of the president and the new president taking office. Kate tried to convince Grace Penn (Allison Janney) she wasn’t after the vice-presidency and wouldn’t reveal anything about Grace’s involvement in the attack on the HMS *Courageous*, but Grace didn’t believe her. Meanwhile, in Britain, Trowbridge (Rory Kinnear) had agreed to secretly investigate a conspiracy within his own government, but hadn’t started yet, and Dennison (David Gyasi) was once again supporting Trowbridge, despite his uncertain position.
