Madam Secretary · Season 1, Episode 15

Mike and Elizabeth in “Unfinished Business”

Look at this. A sign from the gods--

Hey--

I am trolling for favors, and here you are. I also need to hit up Russell Jackson as well.

This might not be the best time.

Yeah, I heard. Bit of an ouch-y in court. (Elizabeth gives him a stern look) How else would you describe it?

Oh, I don't know, Mike, maybe sensitively. What favors are you here for?

I need recommendation letters for my kid's super-elitist, beyond-his-intellectual-capacity private school.

Mike, do you really want to send your son to a school that he is not suited for?

One hundred percent. So can I count on you?

Well, it's a hell of a day to be asking for a favor for your privileged kid. (Mike gives her a begging look) All right, send me his application and his essay (Mike produces the paperwork immediately) No promises.
