Hedda Gabler is a play in which the author, Henrik Ibsen, demonstrates the heavy shackles of society and the burden it impinges on women through the words and actions of the protagonist, Hedda Tesman. Hedda is a woman living for her own pleasure. At twenty-nine-years-old and having been recently married, she is under enthused with her surroundings and yearns for titillating experiences. Obsessed with the aesthetics of the world, she wants to lead a poetic life filled with lust and luxury, yet is too frightened by what her Victorian values deem proper, to do so.

The show is based on the life of a “rogue” Secretary of State, Elizabeth (Bes) McCord which is played by Tia Leoni. She has been appointed to the Secretary of State position just after the previous Secretary of State dies in a mysterious plane crash. The pilot episode begins with President Conrad Dalton pulls up to her private ranch house asking his former colleague from the CIA (Central Intelligence Agency) to work with him again, but this time in his cabinet.
