But Freddy's fall was the most emotional for me this season I was really rooting for him.
Freddy was the moral center of the show IMO. Didn't get wrapped up in the politics, just did his thing and made great food. I was extremely bummed with the way the writers basically wrote him out of the show

I thought Freddy's and sexual assault victim's story lines were great because they're "real people." We're starting to see how different the world the pols live in is from the reality of what they reign over. Claire felt that impact and broke down on her stairs when she sees how her political games are actually affecting real people.
With Freddy, we saw how terribly wrong it can all go as an unintentional byproduct of the VP's fame, and it also showed us a time when Frank was powerless - in his apartment, Freddy, someone Frank cares about, puts Frank in his place, highlighting how a lot of people back outside the beltway don't care a whole bunch about what those pols are doing. Being vice president doesn't mean much to the guy who thinks of you as "just another customer." What’s a god to a non-believer, who don’t believe in anything?
"The truth is a powerful thing," and Frank is gonna learn that in season 3 the hard way with a looong downfall, imho.
