Like Sabrina Carpenter, the whole of the West Wing is working late because it’s Season 2, Episode 17, “The Stackhouse Filibuster.” CJ Cregg is entering a criminal conspiracy with Donna Moss over a missing cat statue and Toby Ziegler is Sam Seaborn’s all time favourite writer. Fi is emotionally moved by the “grandfathers all” of it all with Senator Stackhouse and Leigh wants you to know we have Hamilton’s own Aaron Burr to thank for the filibuster and the filibuster to thank for the continued presence of the electoral college in all our lives. With honourable mention to Sam Seaborn’s lost weekend in the Hamptons with his Tommy Hilfiger sweater boys and the genius of Donna Moss.
