The actor spoke to the Associated Press at a charity event hosted by the Rainforest Action Network . While trying to define the nature of Peter and Alicia (Julianna Margulies) marriage, Noth revealed that the complexity of the relationship was going to be further explored.

"I think they're looking at the relationship between my character and Julianna Margulies' (character). It's exploring what a political marriage might be where it lost its - where the power of the politics takes over the intimacy of the marriage," he said. "They're using each other in a way to maybe take advantage of each other, yet the marriage itself, while not quite dead, hmmm, doesn't conform to a traditional marriage ... and exploring what that means. That's all I know. I know the show pretty much resurrected itself this year with everything. I never know what they're going to do, to tell you the truth. I think I'm the governor but I never did have an inauguration. I'm pretty sure I'm the governor. The more politics, the better. That's my love of that part. I love when they get into that.
