Underwood is back this month

Fictional president Frank Underwood on Netflix’s “House of Cards” wrote a mock-letter asking viewers for their loyalty. It was sent to Netflix users on May 1.

It reads, “All my life, I’ve devoted myself to our fine country. Protecting your freedoms is my greatest honor. In dark times like these, we must keep our eyes open and watch out for each other. As May 30th approaches, I need your loyalty more than ever. Can Claire and I count on you?”

The show returns on May 30.
