Madam Secretary season 4 fall finale: Elizabeth on opposite side of President
The season 4 fall finale of Madam Secretary is coming up on Sunday night and there’s a lot for the show to wrap up before heading into the holiday hiatus.
CBS has released a sneak peek for this Sunday’s episode of Madam Secretary (which you can check out below), but before we get into analyzing that preview, CarterMatt has the episode synopsis for you:
“Women Transform the World” – Secretary of State McCord struggles with the realization that she may need to advise the Afghan government that a compromise with the Taliban may be better than a war with them. Also, Henry uses Dmitri as bait to convince a Russian spy to help the U.S., and Daisy returns from maternity leave and decides to finally tell Joe’s mother about the baby, on MADAM SECRETARY, Sunday, Dec. 17 (10:30-11:30 PM ET/10:00-11:00 PM, PT) on the CBS Television Network.
The sneak peek shows Henry packing a suitcase to once again go to a war-torn country and put himself at risk for his country. Elizabeth is obviously nervous and a little scared as she keeps telling him he has to make it back home.
These moments between Henry and Elizabeth (as we have mentioned before) show her inner self. We see her as a determined leader all the time as she tries to help make the country a better place, however these vulnerable moments are the ones that make the fans relate to her. This, in our opinion, is crucial in getting fans to come back week after week. We love Secretary of State McCord, but in order to truly love the character we want to see more of her away from the job. So we applaud the show for these moments (and others, such as when she is being a mother to her children) that really show the fans who this character is.
This episode also appears to be a great one because it looks like it will be the opening the door to some great storytelling when Madam Secretary returns next year. For one, fans can’t wait to see how Dmitri and Stevie will handle telling her parents about her dating one of her father’s assets. Could this compromise the work that Dmitri and Henry do? Maybe, but we do think that Stevie could unintentionally end up in the middle of something because of her association with Dmitri.
