1.3 - A
Proportional Response
Episode Number - 103
Original Airdate - October 6, 1999
Written by - Aaron Sorkin
Directed by - Marc Buckland
CJ finds out about Sam and the call girl and is furious that he didn't tell
her, but chose to inform Josh and Toby... but the Press Secretary isn't the only one who's
learnt of Sam's liaison. Meanwhile, the President is in a foul mood. Still seething over
the downing of a fully-loaded American jet in the Mideast, a vengeful Bartlet overrules the
joint chiefs' plan for a proportional response and demands a more severe attack that would
result in many enemy and civilian casualties. Unsatisfied with the joint chiefs' idea of a
proportional response, he orders them to come up with a "disproportional response", a far
more disastrous retaliation for the Americans' deaths. While Leo and other advisers try to
cool off the Commander-in-Chief, Josh interviews 20-year-old Charlie Young for as a
potential personal aide to the President.
