Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. "This guy's got about seven broken bones in his hand, by the way, if somebody wants to get him an aspirin or something."

Answer: President Bartlet

President Bartlet telling the hospital staff to deal with Ron Butterfield who got shot in the hand during the shooting.
2. "When all this is over, tell the press, don't tell the press. It's entirely up to you."

Answer: Abbey

The First Lady had to inform Dr. Lee, the anesthesiologist, about her husband's MS. She also told him, "There are 14 people in the world who know this, including the Vice President, the chief of staff, and the chairman of the Joint Chiefs. You are going to be the fifteenth".
3. "And running for President of the United States not putting Social Security front and center is like running for President of the Walt Disney Corporation by saying you're going to fix the rides at Epcot."

Answer: Josh

Josh was upset about Hoynes's campaign and told him, "I don't know what we're for, and I don't know what we're against. Except we seem to be for winning and against somebody else winning".
4. "Democrats aren't gonna nominate another liberal academic former governor from New England. I mean, we're dumb, but we're not that dumb."

Answer: Josh

Leo asked Josh to visit New Hampshire to hear Jed Bartlet speak but Josh was reluctant. Josh ended up going and joining 'Bartlet for America' and also brought Sam into the campaign.
5. "Don't mess with us tonight."

Answer: Leo

The Vice President followed Leo's advice concerning the "build-up of front-line Republican guard units along the Tigress and Euphrates Rivers". Nancy wanted "the President to order Fitzwallace to put the 32nd tactical on ready alert and take us to Defcon 4". Leo disagreed and believed it would be a huge over reaction to the situation and simply wanted the message "Don't mess with us tonight" sent to Iraq.
6. "Somebody had to get them into that office. This was not a lonely guy who lived with his cats. There was a plan and one of the things we have to assume is that we're under attack right now."

Answer: Nancy McNally

Further argument occurred concerning America's Defcon posture amongst Leo and Nancy with Toby weighing in occasionally.
7. "He's hemorrhaging and he's supposed to draft a memo."

Answer: Toby

Toby was amazed that the President should have signed a letter transferring powers to Hoynes while being treated for a shotgun injury. Danny picked up on the fact that the 25th Amendment was not invoked and therefore wanted to know who was in charge while the President was in surgery.
8. "One in five children live in the most abject, dangerous, hopeless, backbreaking, gut wrenching, poverty, one in five, and they're children. If fidelity to freedom and democracy is the code of our civic religion then surely, the code of our humanity is faithful service to that unwritten commandment that says 'We shall give our children better than we ourselves had'."

Answer: President Bartlet

While speaking in New Hampshire, Jed Bartlet explained why he voted against "the New England Dairy Farming Compact" and Josh was amazed that a presidential nominee was being so truthful and candid. It caught Josh and the next thing we see is Josh going to New York to grab Sam.
9. "Because I'm tired of it year after year after year after year having to chose between the lesser of who cares? Of trying to get myself excited about a candidate who can speak in complete sentences. Of setting the bar so low, I can hardly look at it. They say a good man can't get elected President. I don't believe that, do you?"

Answer: Leo

Leo explained why he believed that Jed could get elected President and at the same time be honest, straightforward and work for the good of the American people. Jed wasn't as certain as Leo but Leo said, "This is the time of Jed Bartlet, old friend. You're gonna open your mouth and lift houses off the ground. Whole houses, clear off the ground".
10. "Look what happened."

Answer: President Bartlet

This was the last line of the episode as Leo and President Bartlet were watching Josh being operated on in surgery.
