Synopsis
Emily interviews Nica to be her assistant. Emily requires her complete commitment and confidentiality, and tells Nica that she won't be allowed to provide her opinion without being asked. She says Nica looks familiar, and Nica explains that she worked for Oliver West. Nica adds that she has been gathering information for Emily's campaign for months. She explains that she's interested in taking back what's hers, as inspired by Emily.

Emily asks Nica to change her name to Nicole, because it sounds less ethnic. She likes that Nica is already legally compromised and has to work for her. She tells her to start strategizing ways to undermine Isabelle's protest. Nica agrees.
