[man] 3,402 people …

[traffic light clicks off]

[crowd clamoring]

… died …

[metallic screeching]

[crash]

[sirens wailing] … on Zero Day.

[intense music playing]

[reporter 1] Absolute nationwide terror.

[reporter 2] Computer systems completely hijacked.

[reporter 3] A significant number of casualties.

[reporter 4] Every phone in America displayed the same haunting message: "This will happen again."

[intense music continues] 

[woman] Mullen, thanks for coming. 

[man] Madam President. So what's the plan? 

[woman] Congress is authorizing a special Zero Day Commission, hunting down anyone who aided and abetted this horrific attack. 

[man] You're gonna grab people off the streets without warrants? 

[woman] Actually, you are.

[ominous music playing] 

[reporter] This is the greatest affront to civil liberties ever attempted. 

[reporter] Ex-President George Mullen is not only a wannabe tyrant, he's a deeply troubled man.

[unsettling music playing] 

[man on TV] I'm onto you, Georgie. 

[man] Sir, is there something going on here that you're not telling me about?

[dramatic music playing]

[woman] Prove to me you are of sound mind, or I will tell the country that you are not.

[crowd shouting]

[man]  If the mob storms the castle and comes for all of our heads, everyone's gonna be in trouble. 

[woman] Do you think he's being set up? 

[man] Another attack could happen at any moment. 

[woman] I'm worried that you don't have this under control.

[Mullen] I run this investigation. Not the White House, not the CIA.

[Madam President] If the public finds out how deep this really is …

[dramatic music builds]

 … I don't think we survive that.

[foreboding music playing]

[electricity crackling]

[dark notes play]
