Sally Langston is making herself at home in the Oval Office. She wants Olivia to do her patriotic duty by staying on at the White House. That’ll have to wait. Huck is in trouble. He says, “The person they’re looking for… The one they think shot the president… That’s me.” Huck was asked to come to a hotel room by his girlfriend, Becky. When he arrived, the rifle that shot Fitz fired via remote control. Huck packed up the weapon, gathered all but one of the bullet cartridges and pulled a fire alarm as he snuck away. He plops a case onto the conference room table. Inside sits the gun that was used to shoot the President of the United States.
The FBI has a sketch of their prime suspect—a man in a red hoodie. Huck believes whoever shot Fitz used Becky to lure him to that room. He’s desperate to find her. Abby asks David for a copy of all the hotel security footage. These two obviously still have strong feelings for each other. As for the footage, it shows Becky checking in at the hotel on her own. The fact that there is no information on her beyond the past three months leads the team to think this was all a setup. Huck doesn’t believe it. Harrison can’t stop him from leaving the office to do things his way.
Huck breaks into Becky’s apartment. He finds a hidden room with dozens of surveillance photos along with blueprints of the hotel and a layout of the plaza where the president was shot. Becky truly did set him up. Things get worse when Olivia learns that Huck picked up a woman’s cell phone while fleeing the hotel. The feds are trying to get prints off it. A despondent Huck sits in his car as the happy family he likes to watch goes about their day. When night falls, Becky sneaks up on him. She admits to shooting the president, but didn’t set up Huck fully like she was told to do by those who hired her. That’s because she wants to be with him.
Becky wants to go on the run. Unbelievably, Huck agrees to go with her. He loves her, but eventually has a change of heart. He calls Harrison to have him plant the gun in Becky’s apartment. He waits outside the home of the family he watches. That’s where he’s to meet Becky, but she’s a no-show. Huck senses something is wrong. He steps inside the house to find the entire family has been shot dead. A looped recording of Huck’s conversation with Harrison plays on a recorder. Becky knew she was going to be betrayed. Huck is devastated.
