Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. When the episode began, what song was Matt singing?

Answer: Alison

"Alison" is sung by Elvis Costello. Matt was singing it in the hotel room as they were preparing to leave. As Matt was getting on the elevator, he was still singing the song and Josh asked if Santos was going to kiss him.

2. When Josh couldn't get into the White House, who was the first person he asked to sign him in?

Answer: Toby

Josh couldn't get past the guard and Toby walked right past him without an acknowledgment. When Josh saw Will and Donna walk in without any trouble, he ordered Margaret over the phone to get him inside.

3. What was significant about the man that Charlie tried to fix Kate up with on a date?

Answer: It was her ex-husband

Charlie mentioned to Kate that there was a guy at his gym asking about her. When she finally decided to let Charlie fix her up, she found out that the man Charlie wanted to fix her up with was her ex-husband. Charlie then understood that the man didn't want to go out with Kate, but was wondering if she had been dating anyone.

Answer: She was pregnant

Josh saw her pregnant belly when she walked past him into CJ's office. He mentioned that he didn't know she was pregnant or that she was married.

5. Toby's brother, David, died from cancer.

Answer: False

Viewers thought David had died from cancer until a tearful Toby told CJ that David killed himself and was found by his wife. Toby said he stayed with the body until burial, as was Jewish tradition, and kept asking David why he killed himself.

6. Who played Senator Ricky Rafferty, a new Democratic candidate for President?

Answer: Mel Harris

Most of the episode was based on flashbacks that Toby was having while sitting in a bar with Senator Rafferty during the DNC gala.

7. Which two men got into a wrestling match in a White House office?

After Josh found out that Toby gave Senator Rafferty a speech that President Bartlet once made on health care, he approached Toby and they got into a wrestling match. Toby ended up with a scratch on his cheek where a paper Josh threw at him cut his face.

8. When Margaret lent CJ her jacket to wear over her blouse, who did she say used to own the pin that was on the jacket?

Answer: Aunt

CJ wanted to take the pen off after she heard that, but Margaret told her it was covering a whole in the jacket. When Leo saw CJ in the coat, he asked her if she was using Margaret's stylist.

9. At the briefing in the Oval Office, who noticed CJ had coffee spilled on her blouse?

Answer: Annabeth

CJ bumped into Margaret and the coffee sloshed on her blouse, but she couldn't change clothes because her other clothes were dirty. Margaret suggested CJ use the folder to hide the spill, but during the briefing CJ let the folder slide and Annabeth hit her with a rubber band to get her attention. After the meeting, Leo gave the rubber band back to Annabeth.

10. Who did Leo ask CJ to choose as the new Deputy Chief of Staff?

Answer: Cliff Calley

Mark Feuerstein's first episode of "The West Wing" was in the third season episode "Ways and Means". In "Drought Conditions", Cliff Calley joined the White House as Deputy Chief of Staff.
