Keri Russell explains that Kate's insides are \"rotting\" and she can't handle the situation any longer. As the shock settles, Kate starts a movement, with Billie and Ganon removing their badges and joining her outside. Hal, Kate's husband and Vice President, follows suit, eventually admitting Grace's plans are dangerous. Rufus Sewell notes that Hal is willing to give up his position as Vice President. While Hal initially asked Kate to stop lobbying Grace, he was ultimately unable to silence his concerns due to his desire for access and power.",
