Season Three

Go To Episode

• That is an ungodly hour of the morning.
• Look at Josh in his cute pyjamas!
• Surely he doesn't need both TVs on? This from the person who sits there every day with the TV and the radio on at the same time.
• Can the staff of the West Wing write off their totally comprehensive cable subscriptions as expenses?
• Nope, sorry Josh, the Fridge Fairies haven't been in the middle of the night.
• Well, it's a long lonely walk all the way across the kitchen to the bin
• Josh needs a housemate, even if the housemate is as vague and slobbish as Josh. It just means that with two people the domestic thing gets done more often as the piles of crap build up twice as fast
• Oh, the Evil One is upon us.
• You break into his apartment at five in the morning? Sounds like stalking to me
• This is too much for Josh at this time of the morning.
• Six nights and she's still dating Tandy? Jesus Christ woman, pick one and stop stringing Josh along
• Much as I admire Bradley Whitford as an actor, I do occasionally wish he'd speak up a bit, and mumble less
• Josh never admits he's wrong...ah, there he goes.
• Aha! Laundry day!
• That's not Amy is it? Life conspires against Josh. I think he was damn lucky it was just Leo and Margaret
• Ah, the dreaded parental phone call, "No, I'm on the plane"
• Were we meant to refer from that that CJ's dad isn't well? Because I have that exact same conversation with my parents every week and they're both meant to be perfectly sane
• How could you not want to see a butter Elvis?
• Yet more proof of CJ's natural fringedweller-ness, we don't have any choice about the jokes either. My head hurts if I don't say them.
• Sam would want to go and see the butter cow
• Doesn't Toby do the best one-upmanship?
• How is Sam going to get the new lines to Air Force One? Carrier pigeon?
• Poor Margaret's still dealing with the image of Leo in the feather boa
• How often does a person get called for jury duty?
• If the well-loved men of the Hispanic community are dumb enough to ignore the signs and go stand in a live firing range, then the army should just feel free to go ahead and blow them up
• This episode is very bizarrely directed and I'm not sure that I like it that much. In fact, I am sure, I don't like it at all. It's the wrong kind of style for a show like this
• Just a thought, but they left Josh and Sam behind in Washington. It's OK though, Leo is babysitting.
• Yeah, Toby can tell he changed the words. That's why the President is an economist not a speechwriter. It's a shame you can't point at the President and yell 'cop out!'. Toby was right (big surprise there), the President needed to say something solid, not just mouth platitudes. He should be saying what he believes in whether it pisses people off or not, the goal is to be more than people expect, not less
• Could they not send in a negotiator with a spare battery?
• Love the trepidation with which Sam approaches Bob the UFO man
• "Wink's as good as a nod to a blind man" that really is a mind-bendingly stupid phrase
• Amy seriously thought Josh would get time off to go to Tahiti?
• Told you Sam would love the butter cow. Trust Sam to have seen that.
• "You did this", no he called in an electrician and and architect to put up fairy lights and turn on the CD player She just got lei-d.
• It'd be much more exotic if UB40 weren't from Birmingham
• That was an awkward kiss.
• So, not the best telemarketer then.
• It's Toby's job to make you think Mr President, whether you like the subject matter or not
• You know, the White House is not technically the President's house.

• How do they survive working all these long hours? Staffers must end their terms caffeine and nicotine junkies.
• Let's hope that Josh is a better tour guide than Sam was.
• It looks like they've put all the people that do the hard work in one place, and keep Toby and Sam corralled in another building.
• Josh spent the last hour before Stanley arrived swotting up on the facts so he could give the tour. I can't believe that Josh knows inane trivia about the White House that Sam doesn't
• I love the fact that the British soldiers got a good meal before they started to burn the White House. In true 'Carry On Up the Khyber' style. I love being British, I bet the soldiers even used all the right cutlery as well (I don't doubt that they then stole all the silverware)
• There it is, Stanley finally gets it.
• His prize for curing Josh is to to analyse the President? Their reward scheme needs some serious work
• My, that must have been embarrassing.
• I'm quite glad that the President smokes, everyone needs a vice. I never realised before how weird it is that the President smokes. Good guys never do that on TV
• Agh! This is where Sam Carter's dad is when he's off on his Tok'ra missions.
• What does Leo want Toby to do, hop?
• Toby and the President have spent the past week suddenly turning round and walking the other way down corridors really fast
• To their credit, neither CJ nor Toby yelled "Geagh!" when the door opened.
• Pretty cool for most of America, but it'd suck for the people who have to do the washing up afterwards
• Ainsley was just waiting for the opportunity to turn around then.
• I'm guessing, pretty high.
• Oh woman, be quiet. I'm all for feminisms but that brand annoys me. Especially since the one on the leash in that little chat was actually Sam
• Sam, don't turn around...oh damn.
• All they had to do was swap the word 'religious' for the word 'Islamic' and a major landmine is avoided
• "I can't talk to this woman," he means that literally, he's not going to get CJ to budge an inch. When the Congolese attache comes out from behind the sofa, he'll negotiate with Leo because he's not as scary.
• It's nice to see that Josh is always just Josh whether you want him to be or not
• Take the job, Donna.
• Sam isn't getting a word of what Ainsley's trying to tell him
• And Ainsley would be the first to tell him.
• Yes, but this is one of the really big reasons why they hate you Toby
• Oh, dumb question of the decade.
• Stress can't be cured with coffee and bath bubbles? Well, that's my weekend down the pan
• That's a great line for Stanley
• That was a fairly epic non-sequitur, even for the President
• Oh Charlie! There's going to be a really comic story behind this
• Oh here we go.
• Amen Ainsley! Tell that feminazi where to stick herself. There are battles that you fight to win, and battles that you fight just to make people pay attention to you. People should learn to differentiate.
• So? Donna knows much more than Josh does on loads of issues.
• Never underestimate the power of duct tape.
• "...some literature" Oh Toby, always the critic.
• Handy that the poor woman's terrible pain was inflicted at just the right time to make Donna rethink her career choice
• I don't think that Lincoln did all that single-handedly, you know.

• How can those two guards at the bottom of the ladder know when to salute? They're facing the wrong way.
• The President is really good at distracting the press from actual questions. The press should have known better than to ask the President about something so abstract as that.
• The press pool falling at CJ's feet as she saves them from the inevitable chess lecture.
• So, China's reaction is basically "pissed"
• Notice Leo completely fails to say exactly what all these people have concurred on
• Nice to see that Leo's opinion would outweigh the combined opinion of Nancy, and Fitzwallace, and the Chiefs
• Oh, Vietnam, there's a comparison that you want to make.
• CJ managed to wrestle that briefing back to where it should be.
• I'm sure this Hartsfield's Landing thing was a Jimmy Stewart movie at some point
• We should have a house of useless knowledge, although it is not as comprehensive as CJ's
• Charlie deciding it's time he too wielded a little power in the White House
• Why doesn't CJ just photocopy it anyway? Nobody's going to know.
• Reason 973 why Josh shouldn't bother getting out of bed in the morning. That had to hurt. I just love all the Josh and Donna scenes in this episode.
• I don't know why, I just get the feeling that the chess game with Sam storyline is a bit of a "Yes, Ma'am" scene for Rob Lowe.
• Is it the will of the Taiwanese?
• Charlie should just stand still and repeat the time-honoured Fringedweller mantra used in cases like these. "Hmm, if I was a copy of the President's Private Schedule, where would I be?" Also useful for railcards and GCSE specification booklets.
• Got to admire CJ's smug superiority, and also her filing system. Love CJ, Larry and Ed in this scene.
• I was about to ask how many chess games the President had going on
• Oh, poor love. The President is really freaking him out with all the "Think happy thoughts" stuff.
• Sam should be allowed to just walk over and poke the President if he insists on talking whilst he's trying to think
• Ooh, a rare sighting of Gail the fish. I wonder if they've kept the same goldfish for the past three years of if the grips forgot to feed her and they're now on Gail4
• You'd think that the pizza place would deliver to the White House.
• CJ might just have met her match here. I've said it before, I'll say it again, I love the fact that no human being matures beyond the school yard
• What did she do with the folder?
• Maybe Josh should just offer pizza to the voters of New Hampshire
• Are CJ's three pizzas going to feed everyone in the bullpen?
• The President has been very flip in this episode.
• The President's humour can be easy to overlook like that
• What was CJ planning to do with Charlie's security card?
• Just out of curiosity, who was Hartsfield and what did they land on?
• Oh, I knew that table gag was coming.
• Sam knows the answers are on that little note, like a really important international game of Cluedo
• But knowing when and how to call the play is the tricky bit
• Sam for President! That way he can employ Toby and really piss him off by changing his speeches around and making Toby call him "Sir".

• Oh this is familiar, I'm usually the one sitting reading the paper whilst the rest of my family hurtles around like headless chickens. I don't see how getting ready involves anymore than washing and changing your clothes and I can do that in 15 minutes on a good day (a technique perfected so I could spend a valuable extra half hour in bed)
• I hate crosswords, I can only do the easy answers.
• I think the President is skating on thin ice with an obviously uptight First Lady.
• Do you want to see how fast Abby can move across the room and smack you on the ear?
• I do like the way that the President deals with crossword answers he can't do.
• You'll notice that whilst the President compliments her shoes and earrings, he says nothing about the dress. That dress would be gorgeous if it wasn't for the sleeves
• An actual fanfare! That would be cool to have occasionally.
• As always, John Marbury blasting his way wonderfully through the White House. Oh good, Lord Marbury. He's always good for a few laughs.
• If I'd gone to as much effort to show my cleavage as Abby has (and in what appears to be a strapless bra), I'd be truly disappointed if someone didn't comment
• Ooh, I love CJ's dress. Pity you have to be a six foot size eight with small breasts to wear it.
• CJ oh so neatly passing the buck. "One of us, you"
• Actually Sam looks like a wine waiter in a tuxedo. He's better in a jumper and jeans.
• A good teacher can always make a pupil jump through hoops, even if it is many years since they were in the classroom. I really can't see Sam as a physicist though.
• Donna needs to quit walking in circles, Josh is seconds away from being so dizzy he falls over
• Particle physics is not my area, but what the hell is an anti-proton? Isn't that an electron?
• I think the President just dropped Leo right in it with the First Lady
• Oh yeah, Sam and Josh try to knock over the Federal Reserve...
• Josh just neatly talked himself out of trouble there.
• That's just what I was going to ask.
• Love the way that Leo just answers to Gerald nowadays. The whole Gerald thing, don't ask me why, but I can see where Lord John gets it from
• Old sock?
• Toby and Lord John, that should be an interesting fight. Damn, Marbury just wanted to argue with Leo then
• This is what Sam does. Someone winds him up and points him and he tries to get the job done
• If they decide she's never been a citizen, do you think she could get her taxes back?
• Leo has a mojo?
• Oh, Abbey's just got Amy in trouble.
• That sounds like a plan.
• So now as opposed to smoking in the nice confines of Sam's office he's going to trail his cigar through every corridor in the place
• I like this physicist.
• Yes, but why would you want to do that?
• Should they be talking about this sort of highly sensitive stuff in a public bar? Surely CJ wouldn't approve, if she wasn't off getting drunk.
• Yeah, but you should  never trust anyone who writes in stream of consciousness, he probably had no bloody idea what he was talking about
• Why is Amy playing with Abbey's dress?
• CJ was wondering if she had missed that story.
• She has Gail the fish
• After her run-in with Bast, you can understand CJ's cat-hatred.
• Well done Donna! Donna's okay, she's Canadian now, she doesn't have to be polite to the First Lady anymore
• They are going back to the party when they're drunk and can't stand
• I wish Marbury would say Britain, not England.
• Can they not just talk to him somewhere else if he can't come to the White House? That bar looks nice for a start
• There's going to be a hung-over Press Secretary tomorrow.
• Shock as the President suddenly finds himself running a totally different country from the one he was in charge of when he left the room. You can understand the consternation of the President here who, until now, had been fairly secure about his job title.
• Where did they nick all the flags from? I should think the White House has loads of them in a cupboard somewhere that they bring out on ceremonial occasions. That or they just nipped down the road and stole them from the Canadian Embassy

• The President just had to correct her
• Well, that's going to be a thrilling topic for prime time
• A subtle hint from Toby
• Actually he has two minutes
• I'd want Sam to hold my hand
• Please, please tell me that Sam only knows about landmines because he's read about them. Surely he would be the last member of senior staff you'd want to get near dangerous weapons?
• Aw, Toby's got a crush! That was brave of Toby to admit to CJ
• Could he not talk about what's in the press conference at the press conference?
• Oh no! What a brilliant way to open the episode!
• So it's kind of the President's fault really, on account of him being the one who said it, and the one who ignored the little green light
• Josh has a fan site? And a fan club? That's just not fair
• Josh is trying so hard not to look smug about his fan site
• What was Donna looking for that made her stumble across LemonLyman.com? And we are far cooler btw
• Oh, Josh so isn't listening to his schedule right now
• I wonder how long you have to wait for the President when he's late before you can give up and go home
• CJ's very good at her job here
• Did Sam just take the blame for Toby?
• Oh now they remember Ainsley. Love the "slightly to the right of the Kaiser" line. When did she get a promotion?
• There was no way that Josh was going to keep away from that site was there?
• I'm starting to get that slightly nervous 'freaks with websites' feeling again
• Can Josh not type all by himself? How does he ever get a report  written?
• Big trouble Josh, big trouble
• I would just like to let you all know that I have taken my medication, and very nice medication it was too
• Toby ruthlessly getting rid of the competition and not letting Sam anywhere near his poet
• I bet they don't pay the US Poet Laureate in wine. They don't pay ours in wine either, but they used to. Was it wine? I thought our poets got paid in Sack?
• Toby also taking full opportunity of the chance to use the word "rebuffed"
• CJ told Josh off for being hostile yet she gets away with it. That's because CJ rules, and Josh, sadly, doesn't
• Why hasn't she got Sam carrying both of her bags?
• Who's the guy wandering round just in shot in Ainsley's office?
• Josh is struggling against the dictatorial constraints of the LemonLyman.com administrator. This is why I rarely post on my mailing lists, that and the fact that I never come across well on e-mail
• I'm amazed they believed it was Josh at all
• That's it, when I grow up I'm joining the Font Police
• "Honeymoon" isn't it? Ah, thank you Charlie
• He gets a whole hour? Doesn't the President get interrupted for ad breaks?
• Toby has new couch cushions, on which Sam looks extremely comfortable
• With a gravitasometer of course. Do I have to think of everything?
• There are hundreds of TVs in the West Wing, not many of them come with a comfy couch
• Surely Egyptians don't speak Sanskrit?
• I love Donna's scathing look at Josh behind CJ's back
• There's a reason they hired Sam and Toby you know
• CJ weighing in with a startlingly accurate summary of 'One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest'. That'll save you all having to wade through the book
• For a poetry lecture I'm amazed anybody turned up
• I like her definition of an artist, it's poetic without being pretentious
• Could she not perhaps write a poem about what she saw? It would seem the obvious way for the newly appointed U.S. Poet Laureate to comment.
• Even if he did make a mistake he's not going to admit to it because now he looks clever and not dumb and you know, I think I've just guessed the twist to this episode
• I was right! He's a canny bugger, the President.

• Well, he could sound a little more enthusiastic about his spiritual awakening
• Not the most supportive AA group are they?
• Love the "stay's here", "hear hear" bit. Was that meant to be funny?
• "Hi, I'm John and I'm an alcoholic" Do they have to say that all the time? Because I would have thought that the presence of somebody at an AA meeting would have been indication enough. 
• They're sending Sam because he's one of the few senior people that hasn't pissed off the Vice-President?
• Sam stunned that he's being asked to do something useful, instead of just being the scapegoat so Josh doesn't get yelled at
• I hope Josh is joking about that launch-code binder.
• I never had one of those teachers
• Toby's definitely happier with words than numbers.
• I thought the HUD person was a black woman who got raked over the coals in 'Celestial Navigation'.
• This is a man who balances his chequebook to relax remember
• Okay, that's a lot of donations. I think mine last year ran to Riding for the Disabled Christmas cards and a handful of change in the poppy box
• Weak martinis so he looks cool without being sloshed when he's driving his DB7 and firing lots of automatic weapons
• James Bond is just a big waste of time, full stop.
• I feel for Charlie, being taxed sucks
• I wondered where Bruno and Doug were.
• Admiral Fitzwallace? Isn't he busy running the Navy or whatever he does?
• He took his tie... See, I was just about to say that. I love that the difference between Formal!Leo and Casual!Leo is a tie.
• Can you find other people's past convictions on Google? That seems a little bit like a major invasion of privacy. I did a Google search on my name, it's amazing what came up.
• If Hoynes is off the ticket than he could have another career as a sports commentator. 
• I understood none of Hoynes' little sports rant
• Poor Charlie and Donna have to cope with being DVDless. 
• Actually, to do that he wouldn't be a Vice President
• That's a lovely coffee service
• I didn't know that none of them knew about Hoynes. Okay, that was a hideous sentence
• I'd be impressed of it didn't see an alcoholic in the Oval Office
• Have we seen that mushroom-cloud-looking photo on Josh's wall before?
• So make it National Retiring Public School Teachers' Day
• If I'd been Margaret I would have been out the door before Leo had finished that sentence
• If Leo had told him, then he wouldn't be telling Hoynes to tell him now. And that was another dreadful sentence, Tobin's going to be so pissed with me this week...
• What a cool boss! 
• Presumably there's a special electrical division of the Secret Service who broke into Charlie's apartment and installed that DVD player
• Poor Hoynes is completely thrown by the James Bond reference. He should team up with James Bond, he'd make the best Felix Leiter.
• Show us the piece of paper too!
• The President has been really flip all the way through this episode.
• What a fantastic thing to say to a teacher.
• That's it Jed, give the poor lady a heart attack six months before she finally gets to escape from teaching
• I did some of it in the original, and it's not easy, fun but not easy
• Nobody's really taking poor John's alcoholism seriously
• Oh, those four words.
• They're working out campaign strategy on an Etch-a-Sketch?
• Was that a metaphor, Sam? There's nothing wrong with the idea but they'd have to make sure the ice was really thick
• If only for this episode, the Vice President is not the antichrist

 This episode has not yet been broadcast in the UK

• Ah, the traditional post-hiatus 'previously', consisting of all the main characters saying their name
• Go CJ! It may be completely unprofessional and damage your reputation (because an educated woman can't have an opinion about this sort of thing without being labelled overly-emotional) but go and sock it to Saudi Arabia. 
• I like Toby's "Let's pick a good spot" attitude. 
• Those are some excellently Russian names
• Gaah sh... neeagg!!!! Please tell me that's really Ian McShane with a dodgy Russian accent, because otherwise I'll have to conclude that I've gone mad. I was watching him sell antiques barely four hours ago
• I love how Sam is desperately trying to speak without using idiom. 
• Did Sam have to reapply for his job every time too?
• Not just a death threat but a poorly spelled death threat
• Does CJ often get death threats or is she just in denial?
• Josh wasn't ever threatened, was he? Other than being shot, I mean. Josh wasn't, no, but Charlie was, and he was the one they were aiming at
• I wonder if they ever told Fitzwallace how close he came to being Vice President
• There's a heavy water joke there that I just can't find. 
• That's a weird shot of the carpet. 
• Toby should have remembered to bring a book
• Oh that's guaranteed to set Toby off.
• She only got four e-mails since last night? I get more than that
• You know, if I had an e-mail show up in my inbox titled "Die --- Die", I'm thinking it would go straight into the deleted items box along with all the people trying to sell me wholesale cigarettes
• CJ very nearly letting Ron know far more than he needs to about her personal life
• How easy is it to get CJ's email address?
• If someone tried to take my hard drive with no prior warning they had better be prepared to fight to the death.
• Depressingly, the Russian Lovejoy knows more than my Year 11s. He can even pronounce onomatopoeically
• Brain Donation Days. Can we keep that one? Oh bless, every day is a Brain Donation Day. 
• Oh, it's a very old letter.
• Neither did the US, I think page three girls are pretty much our fault
• They're only smiling for the camera
• Don't underestimate the Canadians, I swear they're just waiting until the USA is looking the other way and then blam, America will be a nation of polite people who say "aboot". 
• That's reasonable. You wouldn't catch me going to Helsinki on Stargate night
• Toby's obviously doesn't do the washing-up in the West Wing. Can he not drink out of the cardboard cup?
• They'd laugh hysterically, but they'd credential them. 
• Ron runs the country now? Does Ron know about this all-consuming power?
• And Josh. The President reveals his true colours with the "they hit me!" line. 
• Oh, so now CJ's thinking the Secret Service don't look all that bad after all
• Charlie isn't quite believing this, but this sort of thing happens to me all the time.
• Martin Sheen can't say "huge". 
• You get 80 million irate calls to the helpline, which will cause a spike in employment for anyone who can answer a phone
• Nobody has told Sam that the summit is off? 
• Oh I love that, "You can beg all you want but you're not going to get it." 
• It takes a writer to spot the clue in the language. Which, I'm proud to say, I noticed too! 
• Fitzwallace saying what we all think.
• My Dad was addicted to 'Hopper', now that was satisfying
• He's not going to have the money to make any more campaign contributions
• No, I really don't get this. If Mr. Tatum met FDR when he was Governor, how did he get hold of the Presidential mail code?

• Ooh, Casual!Sam. Always appreciated.
• They have moose in Finland? I didn't know that. I thought Finland had reindeer or possibly elk
• Now there's an upside to the Secret Service. You have to dodge bullets but you get to annoy people all over the globe
• CJ isn't taking this protection thing well. Oh poor, poor Agent Sunshine
• Sweet car
• Where exactly does she want to feel the wind?
• He's got CJ's keys hasn't he?
• Oh, Agent Sunshine has a plan. And most of her engine, apparently. Okay, I was close.
• He's got all that tucked in the pockets of his overcoat?
• If this keeps up CJ's going to have to steal other peoples' engine parts
• This doesn't look like porn to me
• 'Jed Bartlett : what's he hiding from us now?' Love the way this is said in an overdone, melodramatic voice. It's like the voice-over guy from the movie trailers suddenly got into politics'. That advert is just like one I saw in the States for the abolition of a woman's right to choose to have an abortion. Complete overly-sensationalised drivel.
• On the other hand Donna, it's a really nice box
• I bet he really hasn't got a meeting there but Donna's paying him back for the moose meat.
• Ah, they've opened up the secret clubhouse again
• CJ adds another thing to her list of things she's going to smack Toby and Sam for.
• Oh Sam, the danger is that you trust him and that you're going to be let down.
• The bald guy looks like the evil Hank Marvin from 'Angel' (I can't remember his real name)
• All the Henrys in 5 hours? Presumably performed by the Slightly Reduced Shakespeare Company
• That's a loaded question, which Plantagenet? I'll get back to you on that one. Probably Henry II. Strong wife, long time in power, known for creating laws and building a rich country. There's a lot of reasons why they're nothing alike at all, but he's probably the closest.
• Toby protecting the White House's decorative fruit
• I still say she's fine if she avoids hedgehogs
• Hogan? As in Hulk Hogan?
• I just said that!
• What would CJ and her niece be doing in Men's Accessories?
• CJ's met her match here.
• Donna's selling her gift on e-bay? That shows a... Hang on a sec? Josh didn't actually buy Donna a gift, he just gave her one of his own he didn't want? What a cheapskate!
• Pass The Moose Parcel
• That was really nasty of Josh.
• Why the big map? Does Leo not know where the White House is?
• "Coastguard on alert for the Atlantic", what, in case they realise it's there?
• Well yeah, that's why they're bodyguards. Can you be kidnapped by your own bodyguards? Isn't that a coup?
• I hate those changing room doors. The bottom of them is very close to hip height for me
• Agent Sunshine getting caught by a wayward metaphor
• Wow, Bruno's even worse with names and faces than The President, but of course, he doesn't care
• They do like Andrew Jackson don't they? It's a good quote though
• I bet he wasn't one of the ones who laughed
• Anything's better than Professional so called 'Wrestling' (sorry Ben)
• As if Ron couldn't take The President all by himself. Oh yeah, I can just see the President going one on several with Ron and the Secret Service
• There's got to be some way Donna can put that moose meat down as expenses
• Oh I knew that Toby was going to pull something out of his hat.
• Sam's a great speechwriter but not a very good politician.
• I still don't understand how anyone can play Sam Seaborn, it's like kicking a kitten in the street
• Wow. Wet Rob Lowe, I finally get my wish from the first episode of this season. I just missed everything he said then because he's too gorgeous.
• I assume breaking into CJ's e-mail is part of his job
• At least the death threat guy has good taste, it did look fantastic
• The stalker can punctuate well, except for that final full stop. Hey Di, is that you? Yes, I admit it I'm secretly CJ's stalker, though it's all just a ploy to get close to Agent Sunshine

• Summarily executed, not killed over a long period of time, then.
• Three separate lines of evidence sounds fairly solid even if that's all there is to it
• Yeah, but they got Capone on tax evasion.
• I love Josh ignoring Amy here.
• God, her feet were filthy.
• Ooh, Casual!Sam. And this time it's rumpled, casual Sam. Yum
• My those are fine trousers on Josh. I've just called Lizard in for corroboration and we both agree, those are excellent trousers. 'Absolute Power' trousers in fact
• Josh would enjoy the show more if he was going to get to see any more than ten minutes of it. That must be the most annoying part about working for the President, you have to go to all these social functions and just when you settle down to enjoy them you get dragged away to an important phone call
• Was all that preparation that Donna was doing for that brief hallway meeting?
• I'm sorry, I was reading my e-mail, what is Josh performing for CJ?
• You never know, with brothers. He could want him dead.
• CJ suddenly knows how it feel to be on the receiving end of someone who doesn't want to give a straight answer
• CJ is making this agent's life a joy and a misery at the same time, which is a bit of an accomplishment, really. 
• Incentivised? I'm crying, I really am. Nothing should ever be "incentivised". There is no cause on Earth that's worth bringing a word like that into the language
• Charlie's been stuck with the typing for over a year?
• How do South Dakota feel about this? There is a South Dakota isn't there? Ah, yes there is
• Now that they mention it, I thought that North Dakota was probably "cold, snowy and flat", but only because it's a prairie state on the Canadian border. In fact, before my knowledge of American geography improved, I thought that the Dakotas were roughly parallel with the Carolinas (don't ask why). As far as I'm concerned 'north' just means further up the map than 'south'
• Those people aren't going to win against Donna's freaky trivia knowledge.
• Maybe the people down there are nicer
• Sent here to read a sentence
• I second Josh's enthusiastic slug of alcohol as Amy goes off on one
• I hate Amy but she's dead right on this
• Why is he still with this bitch? She's a bitch with style, yes, but still a bitch.
• Did she just cut her own phone line? She couldn't have unplugged it?
• Donna is going to kill Josh, or at the very least torture him at the office
• Casual!Agent Sunshine too. I'm really starting to like this episode
• And everywhere that CJ went, the lamb was sure to go Poor Agent Sunshine
• Love CJ's pratfall.
• Ha! Special Agent Sunshine learns the follies of denim safety
• Got to love those Russians and their simplistic approach. 
• I like the fact that "how successful was it" is only one of the measures of success
• Here we go, things you thought you'd never see on The West Wing no.34 - Toby as a cheerleader. Oh great, now I have Toby in the knee socks and the gym skirt.  It was bad enough on Lex (well, actually it was worryingly cute on Lex, but that's my problem)
• That was harsh, Mr. President.
• I'd be fine with this, I always walk on the inside of the pavement so if my knee gives out I don't fall into traffic
• I don't know, as a slogan it'd work for me. "Jed Bartlet- Genuinely the Lesser Of Two Evils"
• There are moral absolutes but that doesn't mean that you can't do something wrong.

• CJ's in a very good mood today
• Mallory names restaurant lobsters? Occasionally I forget that she's not twelve years old
• Lot of guest stars today
• There are rules to everything, ask a physicist
• "All the Henrys and Richards too." Don't forget the Edwards. Everyone in this period seems to be called Richard, Edward or Henry except the women who are Margaret, Elizabeth or Anne. Or Eleanor, there were lots of Eleanors
• "They're going to sing from time to time" that is a musical
• Why did all those people stand up for Leo?
• For a moment there I thought the crowd was applauding CJ and Simon
• Is the 'Wars Of The Roses' an actual production, or is it just something they've made up for the show? It seems very well-performed for fake Broadway theatre
• I'm proud of Sam too, "the other 10 percent" indeed
• Huh? She was sacked for finding the President's personal aide? What the hell was the reasoning behind that?
• Luckily Agent Sunshine isn't wearing a clip-on tie
• I know there's important stuff going on, but all this clambering up and down in the audience must be really distracting for the actors
• If Agent Sunshine was still wearing his tux, then why isn't he still wearing his vest? The Secret Service must wear vests It's not like no one thinks they're going to get shot at! Or maybe they don't think it's a good enough save if the bullet bounces off
• Why are they calling Josh (at Amy's) about Simon? What's his need to know?
• That's a nice multi-ethnic mediaeval England. I'm also fond of the non-nation-specific red, white and blue pennants, despite blue having absolutely no place in England's national flag
• The President missing a perfect opportunity to do 'deformed rabbit' behind the curtain
