Vice President Selina Meyer and her staff are still finding their footing in Washington D.C. Selina decides to make the Clean Jobs Commission a pet project but a series of mishaps cause her staff to run damage control.

The Veep's office is revived by good news that her task force is likely to be green lit. With the President out of the country, Selina looks to make headway on filibuster reform and meeting with some 'normal' people.

Dan and Amy attend a book launch for Governor Danny Chung, a charismatic Asian-American war hero, who Selina worries could be a political threat. Meanwhile, Gary and Amy discover that Selina has a lover.

Selina becomes obsessed with the nicknames given to her by bloggers and, after being snubbed from a briefing, assigns Dan to get White House intel. Later, Dan's political manoeuvring puts the Clean Jobs bill on the line.

Selina attends a healthy eating event at Camden Yards with some very grumpy fast-food execs, where she confides a secret to Amy. Mike holds a press briefing for some local news pals, save for the inquisitive Leon West.
