## Throughout The Night Agent

### Season 1

Peter Sutherland goes into the White House for his shift at Night Action. He learns from one of his supervisors, White House Chief of Staff Diane Farr, that a video from conspiracy theorist Elliot Rome was sent to her. In the video, Peter loses his composure with the podcaster. Farr tells him that FBI Deputy Director Jamie Hawkins sent it to her. She reminds him of their deal; he pays his dues in Night Action, and better things will come his way. Both Diane and Hawkins have to sign off on a promotion.

Peter heads downstairs where he converses with Deputy Director of the United States Secret Service, Ben Almora. They are interrupted by Hawkins, who talks to Peter about a report Diane assigned him. Peter's supposed to report to both Diane and Hawkins. He suggests Peter hitch his wagon to someone else.

Peter alerts Hawkins and Farr that Night Action agents Sidewinder and Gazelle are in danger. Farr calls him immediately and tells him to get to Rose before Hawkins.

Rose is at the crime scene when Hawkins introduces himself. He's sorry, but her aunt and uncle were dead when the police arrived. Hawkins works in the White House and hopes they can figure out what happened together. Peter arrives and tells Hawkins his orders. Farr has authorization from the president that is in Hawkins' inbox.

In the morning, Peter takes Rose to be debriefed by Farr. Rose asks Peter to come with her, and Farr allows it as it'll make Rose more comfortable. Peter agrees to come inside. He gets an update on the guys who attacked him and the people who broke into his apartment. Hawkins begrudgingly accepts that Peter will be there, but makes him wait in the hall. This worries Rose, but he assures her that she can trust them. She goes into the room and Hawkins shuts the door.

Hawkins grills Rose for answers, convinced she isn't telling them the truth. He accuses Rose of being involved in what happened or at least dishonest. Peter listens from the hallway. Farr insists they're on the same side. Rose calls Hawkins an asshole and storms out. Peter asks how it went and Hawkins insists Rose is hiding something. Farr agrees but hopes Peter can get her to talk. They have a car outside that will take her to a hotel where she'll be under Secret Service surveillance. Rose, who is back, insists on walking, so Peter escorts her. When they're gone, Hawkins tells Farr he doesn't like Peter being near a witness as he doesn't have the training. Farr doesn't underestimate Peter and believes he can do this.

Peter arrives at the White House and heads to Farr's office. He didn't get anything new out of Rose. Hawkins, Almora, and Briggs arrive as Farr gives a briefing. The Campbells worked for the FBI recruiting foreign assets domestically. If they had Rose call Night Action, that means they were working something off the books. Almora and Briggs want Secret Service to step-in, but Hawkins gruffly refuses. He wants to take another crack at Rose. Peter worries she's been traumatized enough. Hawkins snaps at Peter so Farr reasons with him. She disbands the meeting.

After the meeting, Hawkins goes AWOL and visits Gordon Wick. His body is found murdered in the fields of Maryland.
