Basic theme of show:
Explosions take out the Capitol during the State of The Union
Address, killing the President, VP, all (all? yes, well almost)
of Congress, Supreme Court, and plenty of others.
Still alive: The "Designated Survivor", the Cabinet Member
who's specifically sent to Yellowstone "just in case".
(Except here he was in DC, just not in Congress).
ALSO, as it turns out, there was a "designated survivor"
for Congress chosen by the oppposition party. So the
two of them are (for the moment) the only ones alive.
Except that.... an episode or two back they pulled one
living survivor from the wreckage, one of the Congressmen.
All the Usual Signs point to an Ay-Rab terrorist, but
there's that One FBI agent who's suspicious and keeps
digging, and.. discovers some _very curious_ issues
in regards to that Congressman's rescue.
She brings them to her boss's (the highest ranking FBI
boss still around) attention.
Him: Have you told anyone else about your findings?
Her: Not a soul.
Uh oh...
(They didn't kill her off just yet, but her boss ordered
her to keep it a secret just between the two of them)
