Rather than going through a lengthy hearing regarding Bartlet's MS, Oliver Babish and the House reached a deal: Bartlet accepts censure for his action, and in exchange, they cease inquiries into sticky subjects like Leo's alcoholism, or Abbey's violation of the AMA's code of ethics. Bartlet, with a heavy heart, accepts, making him the first President in history with an official censure on his record.

While the staff furiously labors over the President's crucial State of the Union speech, Bartlet suddenly demands to include a passage that ambitiously promises a crusade to cure cancer within 10 years while Sam (Rob Lowe) is interviewed for a Vanity Fair profile by a woman (as Lisa, guest star Traylor Howard) whom once was his fiancee. A lovestruck Josh (Bradley Whitford) brashly informs a prominent women's rights leader (guest star Mary Louise Parker, "Fried Green Tomatoes") that her budding romance with a Congressman is solely a product of political machinations. Elsewhere, pollster Joey Lucas (guest star Marlee Matlin) studies the sampled responses to the Chief Executive's speech. John Spencer, Richard Schiff, Allison Janney, Dule Hill and Janel Moloney also star. TV-PG
