Elizabeth struggles with both public and private responses after she is groped by the Filipino president. At first she frets about the negative repercussions about punching Andrada, but after a day or two, she starts to get angry. She still finds herself unable to speak out about what he did, even after finding other victims and trying to get them to speak out instead. One of the women that had been identified as a victim ends up flying to the US and asking to speak to Elizabeth personally. She reveals that her payoff wasn't for being sexually assaulted but because she was privy to payoffs from the Chinese government. This information allows Elizabeth to blackmail Andrada into reversing his stance of booting the US Military out of the Philippines and publicly recommitting to the Singapore deal, as well as providing her with a way to stop his assassination at his military's hands. He confronts her after the press conference, claiming that they are now even, but she stands up to him, saying that she will go public about his actions someday, and that day will be sooner rather than later if she hears that he has assaulted any more women.

Elizabeth instructs Jay to investigate Kevin/Joseph and what he was working on before his demise -- to basically run a secret investigation concurrent to the CIAs. Once he digs into things, he has to reach out to an old classmate for information, and she ends up hitting on him. Based on her information, it becomes apparent to both he and Elizabeth that someone was using legitimate military aid packages to cover up arms smuggling. Elizabeth goes to the CIA director with this info and strong arms him into letting her in on the investigation.
