Personal
With Will Bailey showing his stripes as a great writer and deputy communications director, Toby hopes to take on a broader role in the West Wing, shaping policy, rather than just drafting it.
Still recovering from her recent abduction, Zoey is convalescing at the Bartlet farm in New Hampshire, and Abbey — angry with Jed for putting the family at greater risk — has gone with her.
|
Political
Stuffed shirt candidate "Bingo Bob" Russell is Bartlet's new VP, replacing Hoynes who stepped down after a public sex scandal.

After Josh is hailed as the "101st Senator" in a newspaper profile, he clashes with conservative Senator Carrick (TOM SKERRITT - "Picket Fences"), a Democrat from Idaho. Carrick withholds his approval of a backlog of military promotions so he can secure an expensive but faulty missile launcher to be built in his home state. Will gets a flattering offer from the newly approved Vice President, Robert Russell, while C.J. runs afoul of Leo's temper when she deviates from the administration's scripted line regarding an Environmental Protection Agency report on coal-based energy. Likewise, Amy earns the President's wrath when she aggressively pushes for funding of the First Lady's agenda on violence prevention. Meanwhile, Toby creates a message calendar to maintain focus during Bartlet's second term. LAURA INNES ("ER") directed the episode.
