Season chronology

The third season of the American web television drama series House of Cards was commissioned on February 4, 2014. Netflix released the season in its entirety on February 27, 2015. The season was filmed from approximately June 12 through December 20, 2014.

The season was recognized with numerous award nominations. Kevin Spacey won the Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Drama Series at the 22nd Screen Actors Guild Awards for his portrayal of Frank Underwood and Reg E. Cathey won the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Guest Actor in a Drama Series at the 67th Primetime Creative Arts Emmy Awards for his portrayal of Freddy Hayes.

Production

On February 4, 2014, Netflix announced it had renewed House of Cards for a third season of undisclosed length.[1] On December 1, 2014, Netflix announced that the third season would be available on February 27, 2015.[2] On February 11, 2015, 10 episodes from the third season became accidentally available on Netflix for approximately 25 minutes due to "a bug in the system"; however were quickly removed.[3]

Filming

In February 2014, Kevin Spacey stated that the show would again film in the Baltimore metropolitan area.[4] On July 3, the show was denied filming access to the Security Council chamber at the Headquarters of the United Nations by Russia through its representative Mikael Agasandyan despite encouragement from Secretary-General of the United Nations Ban Ki-Moon.[5] Russia questioned the propriety of filming in the chambers and felt that the room should be kept available for normal uses.[6]

For a third consecutive season, the show filmed episodes at the offices of The Baltimore Sun, which in prior seasons served as the setting for the fictional Washington Herald.[7] Among the municipalities filmed in for the season were Havre de Grace, Maryland, and Aberdeen, Maryland.[8] On August 9, filming of a fictional motorcade at the National Mall caused road closures on Pennsylvania Avenue, Constitution Avenue and Independence Avenue.[9] On October 6, filming occurred at DAR Constitution Hall in Washington, D.C.[10] Other D.C. filming occurred at George Washington University and the Franklin Delano Roosevelt Memorial.[11]

The season finale was planned to be filmed in Northern New Mexico areas in and around Santa Fe and Las Vegas, New Mexico in December 2014.[12][13] On December 20, 2014, creator Beau Willimon tweeted that principal photography for the season had completed that day.[14][15]

Tax incentives

Netflix, which had received $26 million in tax benefits for the first two seasons was only offered a $4 million incentive for season 3 by Maryland Governor Martin O'Malley, which resulted in Netflix delaying production and threatening to move production.[16] By March 2014, it was clear that the requested state tax incentives would not be approved by the Maryland Legislature.[17] In response to Netflix's threat to move production if "sufficient tax incentives" were not provided, the Maryland House of Delegates threatened to use eminent domain power to purchase, condemn, or seize the production assets, equipment, and other property that remained in the state because the production had already been the beneficiary of tens of millions of dollars in tax benefits.[18][19] By April 6, 2014, the Maryland General Assembly considered various methods to avail the tax incentives.[20] However, the April 7 state budget only included a total of $15 million in tax incentives for filming,[16] leaving a $3.5 million shortfall for House of Cards, which production company Media Rights Capital says may force them to move production.[21] Baltimore Sun longtime television critic David Zurawik felt that the $3.5 million would not keep House of Cards from returning to resume production in the area.[22] As of April 11, some predicted that no matter what happened the season 3 release date would be delayed.[23] On April 25, a deal was reached to leave the 2015 fiscal year budget with the $3.5 million shortfall, but to allow the producers to collect the $11.5 million unallocated filming credit that remained in the 2014 fiscal year budget.[24][25][26]

Casting

On May 19, 2014, a May 19–21 casting call was posted in the Baltimore Sun for an NSA Director as well as senators, reporters, military colonels, emergency room doctors and a few other roles with projected shooting availability: June 12 – July 15, 2014.[27][28] On June 3, 2014, an announcement for a June 7 casting call for extras and day players was made.[29] In August 2014, Nadezhda Tolokonnikova and Maria Alyokhina of the punk band Pussy Riot were confirmed to be in the cast for season 3.[30] In October 2014, two recurring roles were cast; Kim Dickens in an unspecified role, and Jenna Stern as an ambassador at the United Nations.[31][32] Elizabeth Norment, who played Frank's secretary Nancy Kaufberger, died on October 13.[33]

Frank Underwood, newly-inaugurated President of the United States, visits his father's grave in rural South Carolina to maintain a public appearance of respect for his father, only to privately urinate on it out of spite. Doug Stamper, beaten up in the woods, is found by a stranger. He had sustained injuries to his frontal lobe requiring extensive surgery and care; he makes a slow and painful recovery. Remy Danton has since then been filling in as Underwood's White House Chief of Staff. Frank also enlists Donald Blythe as his Vice President. In Frank's first six months of office, he is labeled by the press as being no better than Walker, "lacking effectiveness and leadership." In an effort to show some form of progress by his administration, Frank pushes for a jobs program called "America Works" (or "AmWorks" for short). Gavin Orsay has accepted working for the FBI despite not wanting to work for the people who had been oppressing him. Stamper asks for his help in locating Rachel Posner, who is still missing after assaulting Stamper in the woods and stealing his car. Meanwhile, Claire Underwood has set her sights on becoming the United States Ambassador to the United Nations. Frank orders a drone airstrike that successfully takes out a foreign target. Stamper finally gives in to the pain from his injuries and has a prostitute squirt bourbon into his mouth from a syringe, thus breaking his sobriety.

Claire appears before a Senate committee regarding her nomination for United States Ambassador to the United Nations at which she makes a casual comment which escalates into a heated argument leaving the committee with the impression that Claire is hot-headed and thus not fit to be the Ambassador. Frank meets with the Democratic leadership to discuss "America Works", but instead, the leadership, including Jackie Sharp, tell him that they do not want him running for President in 2016. Remy Danton, on behalf of Frank, asks Jackie to give information about any talk regarding who will run on the Democratic ticket. In return and also in favor of whipping the votes for Walker's impeachment, Jackie wants to be Frank's Vice President when he runs for election in 2016. Frank and Claire make several calls: Frank to get potential financial contributors for his 2016 campaign; Claire to Senators to sway their vote on her Ambassador nomination. Both are not very successful by the end of the night. The next day, the Senate votes against Claire's nomination. Frank meets with the Democratic leadership and proposes that in return for not running in 2016, they will help Frank pass America Works. Frank finally announces more details of America Works publicly also stating that he does not intend to run for office in 2016, even though secretly, he intends to anyway. Claire decides to challenge her rejected nomination and asks for a recess appointment. Frank says he will give it to her.

Protesters surround the White House as Frank prepares to meet with Viktor Petrov, the President of the Russian Federation, before a summit meeting. Frank proposes to Petrov in jointly providing protection to Israel which Petrov declines immediately after arriving. Catherine Durant and Claire (now United Nations Ambassador due to a recess appointment) also work on persuading Petrov to accept. That night, there is a state dinner where members of Pussy Riot give an insulting toast to Petrov before rudely leaving. Petrov flirts with Claire all night eventually kissing her. While Frank and Petrov smoke a cigar in a basement, Durant and Claire have a playful game of beer pong. Claire expresses to Durant her distrust of Petrov. Meanwhile, Petrov wants the entire European missile defense gone in return for sending Russian troops to Israel. Even when Frank presents a compromise, Petrov still declines, so Frank ends the deal. Claire and Durant make plans on bypassing Russia’s veto in the United Nations Security Council (based on a precedent) so they can still send troops to Israel.

Heather Dunbar defends the government in a Supreme Court case regarding a soldier who was unintentionally injured (losing both his legs) in the drone airstrike Frank ordered. Claire presents the Israeli resolution to the UN Security Council which fails since Russia, who is a permanent member, voted against it, as Claire expected. One of the Supreme Court Justices, Jacobs, had been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s and is thinking about retiring. Earlier, Frank had recommended him to stay on as long as possible. But having no other grounds to deter Dunbar from being the Democratic candidate for 2016, he offers her Jacobs’ seat and she accepts. Gavin continues to discreetly help Stamper find Rachel through his job at the FBI, but is nearly caught when he exceeds the bandwidth of the server. Since Stamper cannot provide any leads to help find her, Gavin suggests that he get to know Rachel’s ex, Lisa Williams, himself. Russian authorities arrest Michael Corrigan, a gay rights activist, which is seen to be retaliation for the UN Israeli resolution. Seth Grayson takes away Ayla Sayyad’s credentials as White House Press after embarrassing the President at a press conference. Dunbar removes herself from consideration for the Supreme Court and officially announces her candidacy for President. Sensing that Frank is pushing him away, Stamper offers to work for Dunbar and her campaign. Seeing the soldier who was injured in the airstrike's unwillingness to forgive him, making him more merciful towards Jacobs thus motivating Dunbar to run, Frank struggles with what justice really is and seeks religious guidance on the matter. He has a tense discussion with a bishop about power, God’s love, forgiveness, and revenge. Frank asks to be left alone in the church to pray. Once alone, he proceeds to verbally reject Jesus and spit on the crucifix behind the altar. When he tries to wipe the spit away, the crucifix falls and shatters.

Frank enlists the help of the mayor of the District of Columbia to help him kickstart his America Works program. Since he fired his Secretary of Homeland Security, FEMA reports directly to him. He appropriates money from FEMA to fund America Works. Frank encourages Jackie to run for President in 2016 and speak out against Frank and America Works to divert the pressure Dunbar has been putting on Frank about Russia. In return, once Dunbar is out of the picture, Frank promises Jackie to make her his Vice President for the 2016 election. Jackie discusses with Remy her fear of not being married or having a family to gain support. Stamper further pursues to offer his services to work Dunbar. Kate Baldwin fills in for Ayla Sayyad as the White House correspondent for the Wall Street Telegraph. Palestine follows Israel in withdrawing support from the peace-keeping resolution because Israel was being threatened by Russia selling arms to Iran. Since there is no consensus, Claire withdraws the resolution until the consensus can be regained. Both Mendoza and Birch meet with Frank and tell him that both parties will fight against America Works in Congress. Jackie gets engaged to Alan Cooke, to Remy’s displeasure. Stamper shows Dunbar documents that prove Claire lied about her abortion, which he suggests Dunbar use against Underwood. Even though Dunbar is appalled and refuses to use the information, she hires Stamper. Claire asks Frank to make an Executive order to commit troops in Israel thus regaining support for the peace-keeping resolution. Russia agrees to peacefully talk over a compromise for the resolution and release Corrigan.

Frank and Claire fly to Moscow for negotiations and Corrigan. While setting up a booth for the church fellowship, Lisa starts asking Gavin (under the alias “Max”) about his past and offering help, but he has an emotional breakdown and leaves her. Claire visits Corrigan in prison telling him that they negotiated the terms of his release which include him giving a statement of apology to Russia for his unlawful actions. Corrigan refuses to give it and forgoes his freedom unless Russia changes their laws discriminating against homosexuals. Meanwhile Petrov is also unwilling to release Corrigan or make any deals with the U.S. unless Corrigan makes the approved statement. Claire stays with Corrigan in his cell until he and Petrov can come to agreeable terms. At the suggestion of Lisa, Gavin goes to a local clinic to get tested for HIV and asks Lisa to meet him there. Even though he tests negative, he lies to Lisa saying he tested positive to get her to open up about telling him informational leads to Rachel. Petrov privately admits to Frank that he does not like or believe in the laws Corrigan is protesting either, because they affect his nephew and two members of his Cabinet, but he has to uphold them for the sake of tradition and respect of the Russian people. Over dinner, Corrigan confides to Claire that his marriage has fallen apart but he cannot divorce since it would reflect poorly on the cause he is fighting for; he suggests that Claire’s marriage is similar. Frank and Petrov agree upon a statement which Frank would make and they make a compromise for the UN resolution. While Claire sleeps for awhile, Corrigan hangs himself in the cell which clearly disturbs Claire. At a press conference, Claire is allowed to speak before moving on to Petrov and Frank announcing the agreements they had worked on. Because of an earlier conversation with Corrigan resounding with her, Claire instead condemns Russia’s laws and storms out of the press conference with a confused Frank following. As a result of her actions, Petrov calls off all the agreements that he and Frank had worked on. On the return flight, Frank and Claire argue over the matter.

Frank and Claire renew their marriage vows in Gaffney. One month earlier, tensions between the two following the botched Moscow visit worsen. Back in Washington, Claire vows to get the Jordan Valley peacekeeping resolution through the UN General Assembly, which is being hampered by Israeli interference. Tibetan Buddhist monks arrive as part of a cultural exchange; they begin to construct an intricate sand mandala within the White House. Republicans in Congress threaten to amend the Stafford Act to prevent the appropriation of FEMA funds to the America Works project. Frank accuses Claire of “recoiling” during a photo portrait shoot; the pair’s situation continues to deteriorate. A month ahead, Frank and Thomas Yates visit Frank's childhood home, now the site of a quarry; the two became fast friends following a late-night drinking session in the White House residence. Gavin and Stamper meet, Gavin having located Rachel in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Stamper, still obsessed with Rachel, rendezvouses with his physical therapist, who soon leaves town. At the White House, Frank issues a firm statement in support of America Works on the anniversary of the New Deal. He visits the FDR Memorial and is impacted by the fact that the statues of Eleanor and Franklin Roosevelt are separated by a large stone wall. He shares this fact with Claire back in the residence and gives her authority to promise aid money to Zimbabwe, thereby enabling the peace resolution to pass the General Assembly in spite of Israel’s opposition. The two begin to heal their relationship. Back in Gaffney, Frank and Yates visit the Underwoods’ home. Yates reveals that he is not the true author of his first successful novel, but took all the credit for it. In return, Frank reveals to him that he never felt he was good enough for Claire. The Tibetan monks complete and destroy their sand mandala, a picture of which Frank gives to Claire, along with a note: “Nothing is forever—except us”. Claire returns to Frank’s bedroom in the White House residence, and the two fall asleep, embracing each other.

A potentially devastating hurricane threatens the East Coast of the United States. Frank faces intense pressure from FEMA, Congress, and several governors; having defunded the Disaster Relief Fund (DRF) to pay for the America Works trial in D.C., the President now faces the possibility of thousands of deaths due to lack of a sufficient response by the federal government. Senate and House leaders demand the President sign a bill preventing the future appropriation of funds to AmWorks. In return, the DRF will be replenished ahead of the hurricane’s landfall. In Iowa, Heather Dunbar continues her presidential campaign. She is told by Doug to meet with fellow candidate Jackie Sharp regarding the hurricane. Dunbar complies, and convinces Sharp to suspend her campaign for the duration of the natural disaster, much to Frank’s chagrin. Claire’s peacekeeping resolution having been passed, Frank decides, without Congressional support, to deploy American troops to the Jordan Valley. Yates delivers the prologue of his new novel to Frank, aware of the fact that if AmWorks is defunded, he will be out of a job. Freddy, now employed via AmWorks, comes to Frank’s attention. The President invites him to the White House and offers him a job as a groundskeeper. In the eleventh hour, seeing no alternative, Frank signs the bill, replenishing the DRF ahead of the hurricane, but effectively shutting down the America Works program. Yates and journalist Kate Baldwin begin a relationship. Claire informs Frank that the Russians have decided to commit troops to the Jordan Valley. The hurricane avoids landfall. Frank calls Yates to the Oval Office, and tells him he will stay on; the President wants to show with the world that he “refuses to see the impossible as impossible.” In spite of the AmWorks setback, Underwood will seek a second term as President of the United States.

Yates and Baldwin continue their liaison as Frank begins to campaign in Iowa. While issuing a rousing speech in support of America Works, Frank is informed that eight Russians have been killed in the Jordan Valley. He cuts the rally short and promptly returns to Washington. Remy and Jackie Sharp meet, their former relationship continuing to haunt the pair. Gavin tells Doug he has discovered that Rachel is dead; Doug, distressed, relapses completely and spends the night drinking. The situation in the Jordan Valley takes a turn for the worse—Israel wants to publicly blame Palestine for the attack, and masses troops near the valley. Russian President Petrov blames the death of Russian soldiers on the United States, and refuses Underwood’s offer of assistance in determining the cause of the soldiers’ deaths. Claire meets with Ambassador Moryakov, who implies to her that the Russian FSB was behind the deaths; the explosion was an attempt by Petrov to sabotage the entire peacekeeping mission, which he opposed from the start. As a result, and in spite of questionable risks, the President approves a mission that will send U.S. operatives to the site of the blast to determine its cause. Remy, shaken by a run-in with police after being pulled over in D.C., visits Jackie’s apartment building; she tells him that she will always be there for him, as a friend. Doug goes to the White House to inform Frank of Rachel’s apparent death. Doug tells Frank that he is drunk, and breaks down in the Oval Office. Frank sends him home, with Meechum to keep an eye on him. Frank places the blame for Doug’s relapse on Heather Dunbar (who Doug had been working for), and threatens her. In the Situation Room, he watches the special operation in the Jordan Valley unfold; it fails, and the mission is aborted. Petrov calls Frank, informing him that footage of the operation has been leaked to the Israelis. Frank, enraged, hangs up—the entire Jordan Valley operation is now in danger.

Claire tries to negotiate a de-escalation between Israelis and Palestinians, while Israel institutes a no-fly zone. Frank gets confronted about the Jordan Valley mission while campaigning. He wants Jackie to postpone the debate until the Jordan Valley crisis is over. Jackie has doubts about the presidential run, while her husband encourages her. Stamper asks for his brother's family to visit. Yates reaches out to Tim Corbet to learn more about Frank's past, and asks Claire to meet to hear her part of the story. Alexi Moryakov has been recalled by Moscow. Frank decides to meet Petrov in Jordan Valley, as he needs a fast resolution of the crisis or his chance of winning in Iowa are jeopardized. He tells Claire her peace plan is dead. Petrov demands to both dismantle the peacekeeping mission and to make concessions on missile defense, knowing Frank's position is weak. He also demands that Claire should be removed as the ambassador, bragging about how easily he manipulated her into believing Petrov was behind the explosion. Frank has no choice but to comply. He admits to Claire meeting Petrov was a mistake. Gavin visits Lisa at home and admits his deceptions to her, telling her he is leaving and giving her Stamper's contact in case FBI comes looking for him. He leaves her his guinea pig. Frank meets Yates for late night drinks. Yates reminisces about his past as a prostitute. They share an intimate moment when Frank seems to be attracted to Yates but then sends him home.

Gavin reveals to Doug that Rachel is not dead and agrees to release her exact location if Doug can help Gavin's friend. Claire begins campaigning on Frank's behalf while Frank prepares for the televised debate ahead, asking Jackie to raise the issue of Dunbar's children's private education. Jackie proposes Dunbar to join forces against Underwood expecting a position on her staff offered in the event of a win, with the deal falling through when Dunbar refuses. Frank wins the televised debate with the help of Jackie's attacks on Dunbar but upsets Jackie with an unprecedented attack on her, to which she has no response. Embarrassed, Jackie confronts Frank about the debate but Frank forcefully refuses to make any concessions. Jackie initially appears to understand Frank but she soon drops out of the race and endorses Heather Dunbar for the nomination. After voicing Jackie's concerns, as well as his own on Frank's treatment of his staff, and being ignored, Remy tells Seth Grayson he is resigning his position as Frank's Chief of Staff. Yates manages to have his first conversation with Claire while she donates blood, where she tells him she re-evaluates her marriage with Frank every seven years and suggests she is not completely satisfied. She passes out and Yates calls Frank, who reschedules to campaign with Claire.

Frank asks Claire to take a more active role in his campaign as she is more popular with the public than him, evidenced by Dunbar's lead over him in the polls. Robert Jacobs meets with Dunbar and asks her to replace him as a Supreme Court Justice and although she refuses Jacobs follows through with his retirement. As Frank reads the first chapter of Yates' book and see it reveals details of his marriage with Claire, Frank chooses to fire Yates, despite his convictions that the book will be a success if it takes this direction. In his disappointment, Yates threatens to release the chapter to someone else but Frank aggressively advises against doing so - when Yates gives the chapter to Kate Baldwin she is uninterested, much to his frustration. Remy tells Jackie he has chosen to retire from politics and relocate despite being offered a job on her team, which causes Jackie to admit she still has romantic feelings for him and the two sleep together. Dunbar offers $2 million to Doug Stamper for the journal which contains the truth about Claire's abortion. She meets privately with Frank and demands that he drop out of the race, but Frank is unfazed and denies the journal's existence. To demonstrate his loyalty, Stamper burns the page of the journal which could incriminate Claire in front of Frank as they meet, and insists there are no copies. He asks to fill the vacancy position as Frank's Chief of Staff, which Frank accepts (allowing Doug to begin attempting to locate Gavin Orsay), although Claire is disappointed in Frank for not choosing to discuss the matter with her privately beforehand. Claire later indicates doubts about their marriage and mutual trust after Frank says that her decision to resign the ambassadorship was entirely her own.

Doug Stamper flies to Caracas and beats Gavin into revealing the whereabouts of Rachel, who is holding two jobs and has bought documents to change her identity to Cassie Lockhart. Doug buys a van and supplies and begins stalking Rachel, allowing him to abduct her. Rachel apologises to Doug, explaining she wishes she could take back her actions and was relieved when she heard he was alive. In a remote location, Doug informs Rachel that he intends to kill her painlessly, but Rachel reveals her new identity and begs to be released, explaining that she has no intention of revealing anything of her "old life" to anyone. Doug is compelled to release Rachel, but realises shortly after driving away that the risk is too great, and turns back to kill her and bury her in the desert. In Iowa after campaigning, Claire asks Frank for rough sex but Frank cannot do it and recommends that she goes back to Washington. Claire invites Tom Yates to The White House to talk, and he reveals what she said to him while giving blood. Frank Underwood wins the Iowa vote, giving his victory speech alone. When he returns, Claire complains to Frank that she feels they are no longer equals and that she has become subordinate to him. Frank becomes irate and tells her that without him she is nothing and violently instructs her to go with him to New Hampshire and campaign with him as the First Lady should. However, the next morning, she tells him she is leaving him.
