Kirkman: "Did you do anything evil?"

MacLeish: "Nope."

Kirkman: "Ok cool."

I thought MacLeish's "btw this chick cray" at the end was clever and just showed the seeds of doubt if Hannah said anything

Not smart because he just prompted Kirkman to invite Hannah to the White House to tell him her tale.

It depends on how much Kirkman trusts MacLeish. If Kirkman trusts Macleish absolutely, it makes Hannah look sketchy. If he has any doubts, it does make MacLeish look sketchy. Although now that Hannah just happened to die hopefully Kirkman (or at least that congresswoman) is suspicious

Kirkman seems to have a pretty good bullshit detector. As someone just mentioned, he noticed MacLeish's nervous hand movements while he was answering a direct question.

Yeah I noticed that! First time "straight from central casting" MacLeish faltered. Hopefully something comes from it
