When you watch Madam Secretary Season 2 Episode 8 online you'll be reminded why you never cross Elizabeth and Russell. Elizabeth and Russell decide to enlist the help of Mike in trying to take down Craig for good. Russell decides to try the tactic of stroking Craig's ego and making it seem like he wants to take down Elizabeth. Craig falls for it, but he doesn't give Russell complete trust and instead maintains his stance that everything he decides to do is for the good of the President. Mike eventually comes up with a plan to make Craig nervous by getting a reporter to call Craig to convince him the press is on to him. The reporter asks questions about what Craig was doing the day the Cuba embargo was to be lifted, but Craig isn't able to give her a straight answer. After getting off the phone, Craig immediately goes to Russell and accuses him of trying to blackmail him, but Russell acts like he doesn't know what Craig is talking about and instead puts blame on Mike and Elizabeth. Craig decides the only way to be safe is to destroy his planner which incriminates him, but this is exactly what Elizabeth and Russell wanted. The next day, Russell and Elizabeth confront Craig and give him the option of leaving in handcuffs or resigning quietly and he chooses to resign. Don't feel bad if you missed out!
