# Scorpion and The East Wing
## Episode: "Operation CHAOS"
---
### ACT ONE
**INT. SCORPION HEADQUARTERS – DAY**
*Walter, Paige, Happy, Toby, and Sylvester gather around a bank of monitors displaying scanned CIA files.*
**WALTER**
(serious)
These files are from the 60s and 70s—domestic surveillance programs. COINTELPRO, CHAOS, MKULTRA. The government was spying on its own citizens.
**PAIGE**
And there's a file here about a guy named Reeve Whitson—an intelligence operative linked to some of these operations. But the connection to the Manson Family is... tenuous.
**HAPPY**
Still, the fact that the CIA was dosing people with LSD to control them? That's straight out of a sci-fi thriller.
**TOBY**
Yeah, and apparently Dr. Louis Jolyon West was involved—studying hippies in Haight Ashbury. Manson was there too, dosing his followers with LSD.
**SYLVESTER**
But no evidence they ever met. It's all circumstantial, like a shadow that won't quite come into focus.

### CUT TO:
**INT. WHITE HOUSE – SITUATION ROOM**
*President SANTOS sits with Chief of Staff JOSH LYMAN and National Security Advisor KATE HARPER.*
**KATE**
Mr. President, classified documents about CIA domestic surveillance programs have been leaked. This could spark a political firestorm.
**JOSH**
The public knows about COINTELPRO and MKULTRA from the Church hearings, but this leak suggests a deeper cover-up.
**PRESIDENT SANTOS**
We need to decide: do we suppress this to protect national security, or do we come clean and risk scandal?
---
### CUT TO:
**INT. SCORPION HEADQUARTERS – DAY**
*Happy and Toby meet with a RETIRED INTELLIGENCE OFFICER in a dimly lit café.*
**RETIRED OFFICER**
Dr. West was a CIA contractor, studying the counterculture. But Manson? No proof they ever crossed paths. The agency kept its distance from the Family—too unpredictable.
**HAPPY**
So why dose people with LSD? Mind control?
**RETIRED OFFICER**
MKULTRA was about control, yes. But it was chaotic, poorly managed. No one really knew what the hell was going on.
---
### ACT TWO
**INT. WHITE HOUSE – HALLWAY**
*DONNA MOSS and SAM SEABORN walk briskly, discussing the leak.*
**DONNA**
If we come clean, it could destroy trust in the government. But hiding it feels... wrong.
**SAM**
The Church Committee hearings showed us the cost of secrecy. Sometimes the truth is the only way forward.
---
### CUT TO:
**INT. SCORPION HEADQUARTERS – NIGHT**
*Walter pores over documents. Paige joins him.*
**PAIGE**
We're missing the smoking gun. But the leak was intentional. Someone inside wants this exposed.
**WALTER**
Maybe it's time the truth comes out—even if it's messy.
---
### ACT THREE
**INT. WHITE HOUSE – PRESS ROOM**
*President Santos steps up to the podium for a live televised address.*
**PRESIDENT SANTOS**
Fellow Americans, recent disclosures have revealed past abuses by our intelligence agencies. These actions violated our values and our laws. We acknowledge these mistakes and commit to greater transparency and oversight.
---
### CUT TO:
**INT. SCORPION HEADQUARTERS – DAY**
*The team watches the speech.*
**HAPPY**
Well, that's one way to handle a crisis.
**PAIGE**
It's not perfect, but it's honest.
**WALTER**
Sometimes the hardest problem isn't solving the puzzle—it's admitting the truth.
---
### CLOSING SCENE
**INT. WHITE HOUSE – OVAL OFFICE**
*Josh, Kate, and Donna prepare for the political fallout but share a quiet moment of relief.*
**KATE**
We chose the harder path. Maybe that's what leadership looks like.
**JOSH**
History will judge us. Let's hope it's kind.
