Harvey asks the bank officer for privacy in the vault, then when she is alone she closes her new box and uses another key she brought with her to open a box that doesn't belong to her. In real life, that would not be possible -- either the boxes would have two keyholes, one of which has to be unlocked by the officer, and/or she would have been given her requested privacy with her own box in a separate room away from the other boxes. (Plus there would be other, lesser-known safeguards against inappropriate access in a vault containing a box owned by the President of the USA.) See more »Frequently Asked Questions

This episode continues Frank's courting the black vote. Through some underhanded shenanigans, financed by Claire, a billboard near his birthplace shows a picture of Frank's father, standing next to a hooded Klan member. Of course, by default, Frank's upbringing comes into question. The black caucus begins to turn on him and he tries to make his way back by making deals. Claire has a huge row with her mother. She comes across even more despicable and ambitious as the poor woman must confront her, dealing with terminal cancer. She is asked not to return to the house, and Claire says she will do whatever she wants, ignoring her mother's wished. Frank and Claire finally get together once again, and the sickness continued. Claire has a proposal that seems beyond the pale and I can see why. There is another subplot with the much maligned Lucas who has made his way back, skipping out on his terms of his witness protection requirements in order to face Dunbar and enlist her help.
