- Raymond Tusk: Can I ask why you do that?
- Francis Underwood: Do what?
- Raymond Tusk: Tap your ring like that. I've seen you do it on TV. Two taps every time you get up from a table or leave a lectern.
- Francis Underwood: Something my father taught me. It's meant to harden your knuckles so you don't break them if you get into a fight. It also had the added benefit of knocking on wood. My father believed that success is a mixture of preparation and luck. Tapping the table kills both birds with one stone.
- Doug Stamper: I'll call him right now.
- Francis Underwood: And keep your eye on Janine Skorsky while I'm away. She's been prying into Russo.
- Doug Stamper: What does she know?
- Francis Underwood: She knows the right questions to ask. I want to make sure she doesn't get the right answers.
