Madam Secretary season 5 episode 20 is coming next week, and this would be the season finale. Fans are now hoping the show would deliver what they expected and the story would further continue in the future seasons. For now, here are the things to expect in the finale.
Based on the synopsis of Madam Secretary season 5 episode 20, titled "Better Angels," Elizabeth McCord is preparing to leave the state department, and she will announce her plan running for President. However, the anti-globalist terrorists attacked the United Nations delegation - they were in Geneva to sign the climate migration treaty.
As mentioned, Elizabeth is planning to leave her post in this episode so she could run for President and this is one of the things fans have been waiting all along. But then, before she could even have the chance of doing it, it looks like there are people who will try to stop her plans.
Viewers will be seeing terrorist attacks in this episode, though CarterMatt noted their intention in attacking the delegation is not to stop Elizabeth from announcing her plan running for President. But of course, this happening will put the Secretary of State into a little bit of peril.
It is also possible she would delay her announcement, so she could properly deal with the issues happening in Geneva or she might be put in a situation where she'll decide not to run for President. It seems like the latter is possible, yet some fans are hoping she will continue with her decision running for the position.
Also, one of the most challenging things about running for President is to step away from your current duties, which is, for Elizabeth, walking away from the State Department - that's not an easy thing to do. Her place right now is what represents her years of passion, hard work, and soul.
She gave almost her everything just to make sure the department is built not only for the good of her self - but for the good of the world. Viewers can expect the real test for Elizabeth in the upcoming episode, including what makes her the person and the politician she is now. It's also very likely fans could see Madam Secretary season 6 all about Elizabeth running for president - and everything goes into that, along with successes and failures.
Madam Secretary season 5 episode 20 will air on Sunday, April 21, on the CBS Television Network.
