Madam Secretary season 6 episode 9 is arriving later this week, with the title "Carpe Diem." This episode will be the penultimate one for the series, and it will see Elizabeth McCord facing another problem, particularly a national security crisis. Here's what to expect in the upcoming episode of the CBS series' final season.
In the synopsis of Madam Secretary season 6 episode 9, the newly-elected Madam President Elizabeth McCord faces another problem and it could put her in jeopardy. In this week's episode, she had to deal with the national security crisis after a military conflict in international waters spirals to the brink of nuclear confrontation.
Elizabeth should prepare for the worst as more people will probably criticize her. She is also facing the threat of impeachment, and this could put her entire presidency at risk and could dismantle her image due to the allegations made against her. Some people want to bring her down, and things wouldn't be easy for her.
As for what else is coming on Madam Secretary season 6 episode 9, Elizabeth and Henry decided to make a wish-list of the things they want to do while she's still in the office. Since the McCord administration is facing the imminent threat of impeachment, these two want to make sure that they can do many things in a short period.
There's a chance Elizabeth could avoid impeachment. However, it could be hard for her part since she's in a once-in-a-lifetime position, a role that's hard to attain. Thus, many people out there will try to ruin her name and reputation and will drag her down just to get that position. She's being scrutinized and subjected to unfairness because she became the first woman president of the United States.
Meanwhile, some fans took to Twitter and expressed their thoughts regarding the recently released episode of Madam Secretary. One fan wrote it's hard to see Elizabeth dealing with such situations, especially since this would be the series' final run.
The fan is also hoping the series will end on a happy note, and they would the show up nicely. But, another user praised the direction of the show, noting that it depicted how women in politics are being treated harshly and unfairly.
Madam Secretary season 6 episode 9 will air on Sunday, Dec. 1, on CBS.
