Pretty sure that if something happens to POTUS the VP then becomes POTUS then the speaker of the house becomes VP. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, I hope I am!
Don't think your right. Speaker only becomes involved if something happens to both POTUS AND VPOTUS at the same time.
ie: Look at Nixon/Ford/Rockefeller. Carl Albert never became VP. Rockefeller did.
