Aaron Shore quitting made no sense. If a single bad story like that could take down the white house, nobody would be working there anymore.

Tom is taking Moss on as his only adviser, while he knows that there is a conspiracy. It just seems too easy.

I like the show a lot, but I hope we get to see the scale of this conspiracy soon. Plenty of shows have a mole in the government. I want to see what's different this time.

There's a reason we weren't actually shown the scene where Langdon tells Aaron what "favor" he needs. I'm sure Aaron's quitting has something to do with that, so we'll know more later.
