The Drop-In

Act 1

Sam: “The time for such debate is over. As of today, it shall be the unequivocal position of the United States government that global warming constitutes a clear and present danger to the health and future well-being of this planet and all its inhabitants.” Did somebody get that?

Ginger: Yes.

Sam: I didn't see anyone writing.

Bonnie: You already wrote it.

Sam: I just added a thing.

Ginger: We got it.

Sam: I just added “The time for debate is over.”

Ginger: We got it.

Thing = sentence
Act 3

Bartlet: Listen, I gotta go a few blocks across town and give an address on global warming and the future of our planet. That's not something you're interested in, right?

Lord Marbury: Oh good God, no.

Bartlet: Okay. Well, stay here and fight with Leo about something; we'll get you some dinner. I'll be back in an hour, we'll do your thing and then enjoy the reception.

Lord Marbury: Excellent.

Thing = ceremony recognizing Marbury as the new British Ambassador to the United States
