In their ruthless rise to power, Francis and Claire battle threats past and present, and form new alliances while old ones succumb to betrayal.

President Underwood fights to secure his legacy. Claire wants more than being First Lady. The biggest threat they face is contending with each other.

They've always been a great team. But now in season four, Frank and Claire become even greater adversaries as their marriage stumbles and their ambitions are at odds. In an election year, the stakes are now higher than ever, and the biggest threat they face is contending with each other.

Season five picks up where season four left off: in the midst of a tense presidential election that puts the Underwoods on the same ticket against energetic Republican upstart Will Conway. Viewers will see how their heated campaigns play out as well as which alliances dissolve in the aftermath. Perhaps the biggest question is if Frank and Claire’s relationship is among them.

Freedom from the cartel is seemingly within reach, but fraying familial bonds may prove to be the Byrdes' ultimate undoing.
