Oh, boy. If ever we wondered how House of Cards might make politics seem even darker than reality, they certainly found a way. Watch Frank and Claire plot decades into America’s future for our first full Season 5 trailer.

Having previously moved from a winter-spring perch to a May 30 premiere, sunlight is nonetheless scarce in the new trailer, which picks up with the Underwoods consolidating their power in the wake of that ominous “we make the terror” ending. In addition to the trailer above, check out some colorful key art below:

House of Cards Season 5 will debut on Tuesday, May 30, so stay tuned for more in the meantime.
