She'll have to fight against time, the network, and even her own colleagues to stop a conspiracy still bent on stealing the presidency. In the process, she’ll have to confront her own views on what the Constitution is meant to protect and who she’s becoming. Even if she and Trey are successful, what kind of America will remain?
