The State of the Navy | 'Only in America'

The State of the Navy – As U.S.-China relations remain tense, Norah O'Donnell goes aboard the USS Nimitz, a United States Navy aircraft carrier operating southeast of Taiwan and China in the Western Pacific. With rare access to the ship and its officers during a deployment, O'Donnell reports on the state of the Navy amid threats of a Chinese invasion of Taiwan – an important American ally. O'Donnell speaks with the Commander of the U.S. Pacific Fleet, Admiral Samuel Paparo, at sea and Chief of Naval Operations, Admiral Mike Gilday, at the Pentagon. The report includes a candid discussion of U.S. contingency planning for Taiwan and how the U.S. is attempting to maintain readiness while keeping up with China's rapid and remarkable naval and military build-up. This is a double-length segment.

"Only in America" – Sharyn Alfonsi profiles billionaire businessman Rocco Commisso, who went from a town in southern Italy to growing up in the Bronx to running an ultra-successful cable TV empire and ultimately buying a pro soccer team. Alfonsi meets Commisso in the Bronx and follows his American dream that takes them all the way to an AC Fiorentina game in Florence, Italy.

Wild Cards

Wild Cards follows the unlikely duo of a gruff, sardonic cop and a spirited, clever con woman. Ellis, a demoted detective, has unfortunately spent the last year on the maritime unit, while Max has been living a transient life elaborately scamming everyone she meets. But when Max gets arrested and ends up helping Ellis solve a local crime, the two are offered the opportunity to redeem themselves, with Ellis going back to detective and Max staying out of jail. The catch? They have to work together, with each using their unique skills to solve crimes. For Ellis, that means hard-boiled shoe leather police work; for Max, it means accents, schemes and generally befriending everyone in sight, while driving Ellis absolutely nuts. Against the backdrop of beautiful Vancouver — with all its unique, charming, and even contradictory neighbourhoods and subcultures — the two will have to learn what it means to trust another person and maybe actually become partners.
