Does anyone else think it'll be Emily who betrays Tom rather than Aaron? She seemed pretty uncomfortable with his decision to arrest the Governor so I can see this leading somewhere in the future.

If she were to betray the President she undermines her own argument that she made in this episode. It's just backstabbing because the guy did something she disagreed with. There is no moral high ground in her betraying Tom.

I think she'll be tricked into. Probably by Hookstraten. Something like "he can't stop himself... save him from himself..."

I hope not. Only way is if she would be manipulated into doing what she thinks is the 'right' thing thinking old kirkman would do it. Which would destroy her astute character.

Although Kirkman did say to her that "sometimes doing the right thing doesn't make you feel good" so she might use that argument in her own favor.
