The West Wing S1E07--The State Dinner

“How bad can it get?”
“Catastrophic.”

Hey. I’m here. Go!

Playing…

CJ has it all handled

Finally get to meet the First Lady! Abby’s fabulous.

Carmen Marc Valvo and Manolos. Nice. :slight_smile:

“I’ve been doing some reading on my own…”
“I wish you wouldn’t do that.”

Josh and Donna never stop teasing each other. Love that dynamic.

love that Abigal Bartlett. i wanted to name my 2nd kid Abigal

??? explain

CMV designed Abby’s dress. Her shoes are Manolo Blahniks. Talented high end designers. It’s a girl thing. :stuck_out_tongue:

Sam REALLY wants to be seen with Laurie. He’s practically begging to be spotted.

oh! shame on me for not know that…as a Project Runway watcher

Josh to Mandy “Well, you’re in the game now.” he knows the feeling of the President doing something he suggested and it going wrong

something definitley “off” about Laurie’s character. I think the actress is just so smart and capable that it just isn"t beleiveable that she’d work as a call girl. am i being judgemental?

I don’t think it’s just her portrayal. The whole “law student moonlighting as a hooker” thing doesn’t really work. A smart woman studying law in DC is highly unlikely to choose an unlawful occupation. It’s too much of a stretch, when the rest of the show is so credible.

yup. well said. a rare flaw in Aaron Sorkin’s creative genius

This whole translator situation is such a farce. Hilarious!

“Why don’t we just speak English”
“Donna…”
"Try to remember all the things I do correctly. " D

toby frozen by guilt at the end of that scene is nice acting

How does a call girl get past a Secret Service background check and into a State Dinner where she meets the First Lady? This just doesn’t work.

And here’s this episode’s tearjerker. Man, this sucks. :frowning:
