The West Wing-
11 Lord John Marbury
The Kashmir border powderkeg becomes more explosive when the Indian army invades Pakistani-held territory
making the threat of a nuclear confrontation frighteningly real to President Bartlet (Martin Sheen), who calls in Lord Marbury (Roger Rees)
an eccentric British diplomat with ties to both warring nations -- and a weakness for booze.
An angry Josh (Bradley Whitford) is subpoenaed to testify as the investigation into substance abuse among White House staffers grinds
on towards its inevitable target: chief of staff Leo McGarry (John Spencer).
Mandy (Moira Kelly) floats a trial balloon among the staff to test their reaction to her notion of representing a liberal Republican.
The President is surprised when Charlie (Dulé Hill) asks him if he can date his willing daughter Zoey (Elisabeth Moss).
12 He Shall, From Time To Time...
The White House staff is in full crisis mode when President Bartlet (Martin Sheen) is found unconscious as he prepares for the State
of the Union speech while the India-Pakistan border skirmish flares again when a fearful Pakistan gives its field commanders control of its nuclear arsenal.
While the President's condition is officially blamed on the flu, the First Lady (Stockard Channing) knows better, and Toby (Richard Schiff)
is too busy to notice as he polishes his boss' upcoming address.
Equally distracting is the inevitable disclosure of Leo's (John Spencer) former substance-abuse problem by political rivals
as well as the reappearance of the amusing Lord Marbury (Roger Rees)-- a besotted ladies' man who doubles as a key adviser on the India-Pakistan conflict.
Despite the crises, C.J. (Allison Janney) and Mallory (Allison Smith) express their romantic feelings about two very different men.
