"Netflix doesn't want you to forget that House of Cards returns Feb. 14. \nJust days before the season two floodgates open \u2014 with all 13 episodes becoming available at 12:01 a.m. PT Friday \u2014 Netflix has unveiled three promos to whet fans' appetites. \nSee also: 'House of Cards' Season 2 Trailer Exposes Some Deep, Dark Secrets\nThe first teaser, above, focuses on newly minted U.S. Vice President Frank Underwood (Kevin Spacey) and his attempts to thwart powerful enemies who threaten to expose his political dirty laundry. The second dramatic promo, below, spotlights his wife, Claire (Robin Wright), and the sacrifices and cutthroat behaviors of being a politician's spouse. \n\nWright is fresh off winning Best Actress in a TV Drama at the Golden Globes, beating stiff competition from Julianna Marguiles (The Good Wife), Tatiana Maslany (Orphan Black), Taylor Schilling (Orange Is the New Black) and Kerry Washington (Scandal).\nA third promo, below, reminds viewers just how conniving Underwood is: \n\nThe new promos are in line with how Netflix has described season two's plot: \nFrank Underwood has masterfully maneuvered his way into the vice presidency, but his ascension faces threats on all fronts. Investigative reporter Zoe Barnes (Kate Mara) is inching closer to the truth about Frank and Peter Russo (Corey Stoll) and will stop at nothing to break the story. And Frank's wife Claire, the newly appointed Second Lady, must deal with the bright glare of the spotlight and how the intense scrutiny eats away at their once private existence.\nSeason One of the political thriller made history in September when it became the first online-only series to win an award during the Primetime Emmys. \nHave something to add to this story?
