Toby Ziegler is a man on a rampage in Season 2, Episode 18, “Bad Moon Rising.” President Bartlet may have engaged 16 people in a massive criminal conspiracy to commit fraud in order to win a presidential election, Toby won’t stop shouting, and Fi is extremely exasperated with Josh Lyman and Donna Moss for acting like last week never happened. It’s Charlie Young that’s the king of our hearts this week though, for being so smart and so brave. Leigh breaks down exactly what Oliver Babbish was shouting about when he told Jed if he invoked executive privilege, he’d be out the door. With honourable mention to Dulé Hill’s eyes, 8th great social studies, and the pettiness of Thomas Jefferson.
