Plot
It is nearly time for the opening of Parliament, and new Prime Minister] Alan Wheatley has a speech outlining his government's agenda. By convention, the President reads the speech in the Senate chamber. However, President Tanner doesn't want to read the speech because of the inclusion of the National Security Act. In Tanner's office, the President discusses with Robbie what would happen if she refused to read the speech. Robbie responds that since nobody's ever done that, there's no way to know. Tanner then asks what would happen if she read her own speech. Robbie knows the answer to that one - she can clean out her desk when she's finished reading it. Wheatley arrives at Martin Hall to discuss arrangements for the President's speech with Robbie. Robbie expresses the President's "concerns" over the National Security Act, but Wheatley brushes them off. Robbie then tells Wheatley the President is considering reading a different speech. The Prime Minister reacts coolly to this news, and asks Robbie to talk her out of it. Robbie feigns ignorance as to the President's plan. Ingrid has been left in charge of redecorating the staff offices. She is searching through piles of catalogues from various art institutions, trying to find appropriate artwork. She asks Robbie what he would like in his office, but he doesn't care in the slightest. Ingrid makes a note of this.
