Episodes
The Beverly Hills Burglary
A year before the Watergate break-in, E. Howard Hunt and G. Gordon Liddy are tasked with investigating the Pentagon Papers leak, gathering a team of Cubans -- all Bay of Pigs veterans -- to infiltrate whistleblower Daniel Ellsberg's psychiatrist's office.
Please Destroy This, Huh?
While Hunt and Dorothy entertain Liddy and his wife, Fran, their kids Lisa and Saint John paint a less-than-perfect portrait of the family. Later, on the outs with Nixon's Attorney General John Mitchell, Hunt and Liddy get a chance to redeem themselves.
Don't Drink the Whiskey at the Watergate
Hunt, Liddy and the Cubans attempt to break into the DNC offices at the Watergate to plant listening devices for the White House.
The Writer's Wife
Reeling from the arrests at the Watergate, Hunt enlists Saint John's help to dispose of evidence, while Liddy warns the acting Attorney General that the burglaries can be tied back to the President.
True Believers
Amid rumors of the White House's involvement, Liddy shares his concerns about Hunt's stability with John Dean and tries to make a deal. Hunt's daughter Kevan leverages a secret notebook to convince her father to come clean in his Senate testimony.
