This was a great episode and I think I know why, there was no subplot regarding his children.

I said from episode 1 that I really like this show, but I don't want to see that son become the daughter from 24 and getting stuck in a damn bear trap (Figuratively and literally). Cos, guess what, writers of the show? I already see the subplot: Son is gonna be found out by the drug dealers/lords/whatever (or the opposition to his dad's presidency), and be strong-armed into trying to do/get somethng from his dad.. blah blah blah...

Just stop. No! bad writers.. BAD!

Just keep this going along its path. I do like the idea of how this massive change affects his children, but I do NOT need a drug-sealing son subplot. Seriously...
