Leaf peeping
Если бы пришлось выбирать единственную серию из Западного крыла, пожалуй остановился бы на And It's Surely to Their Credit.
President Bartlet (reads from the radio address script): This month, as autumn is in full bloom in much of the nation, the weekends will be devoted by many of you to leaf peeping and foot... Leaf peeping? Is that something we do now?
Bartlet (attempting to record the radio address): Let’s do this in one, shall we? One-take Bartlet. That’s what old Jack Warner used to call me.
...
Bartlet: Sorry everybody, this is gonna be it. Four is my lucky number.
Donna: This is take five, sir.
Bartlet: Five is my lucky number. Fifth-take-Bartlet, that's what Jack Warner used to call me.
Donna: Did you really know Jack Warner, Mr. President?
Bartlet: Yeah, because I used to be a contract player in Hollywood and I'm 97 years old.
Tribbey: You're the one who wrote those columns?
Ainsley: Yes.
Tribbey: You're an idiot.
Ainsley: Oh, God.
Leo: She clerked for Dreifort.
Tribbey: Well, Dreifort's an idiot.
Leo: He's a Supreme Court Justice, so show a little tolerance for people who disagree with you.
Tribbey: Well, WHEN Justice Dreifort shows tolerance to gays, lesbians, blacks, unions, women, poor people, and the first, fourth, fifth and ninth amendments, then I will be more tolerant towards him!
President Bartlet: Lionel Tribbey is a brilliant lawyer whom we can not live without. Or else there would be very little reason not to put him in prison.
Ainsley: I just want to die.
Leo: Oh, it's the White House. You'll get used to that feeling.
Abbey (about where they can have sex): How about our bedroom?
Bartlet: New Hampshire is an hour and a half by plane, Abbey. I don't have that kind of time.
Abbey: How about our bedroom in the residence?
Bartlet: YES! We have a bedroom right here in the building! That was so smart!
Abbey: Yes.
Bartlet: Let's go!
Abbey: Jed! Korea, plutonium?
Bartlet: Oh God, I HATE plutonium!
