West Wing - Jed introduces his future son-in-law to the join chiefs

[MidasStorm]

Tell me you didn't plan that.

Perhaps he's a member of D.A.D.D(Dads against daughters dating).

[hanscombe72]

Jed, you Bastard! ;-)

I did something similar with my stepdaughter's boyfriend... I took him to our security training for the bouncers of the nightclub I work at. He was enthusiastically greeted by 11 of the most egomaniacal, testosterone driven, combat-trained psychopaths I have ever known. It was wonderful.

The only thing that could make thais scene better would be if Admiral Fitzwallace was still alive.

Is it just me or is Bartlet's relationship with CJ not as dynamic or entertaining as with Leo

[sorryman105]

@bluesboy25000 They aren't peers. Leo was his friend, his brother and his guy. Cj is almost his daughter so its pretty different dynamic.

[pepsibookcat]

Of course he planned it. ;)

[drbayoms]

Being that NBC's ratings are so bad. Why not show re-runs of The West Wing?

[miahk2]

What a bastard! :D

[mlwwlm]

Bartlett just got my vote.

[ShakenVodka]

now that's hazing lol

[valeriereified]

The scene that follows this is really sweet.

"I knew I wanted to marry your daughter on our third date."

...

"What took you so long?"

[Kikyo9423]

I love that small hint of a smile at the end =D

[sircamembert]

that's just mean.... =)

[Gracie0935]

"Tell me you didn't plan that."

Ya think?!

[Rotarrin]

@Gracie0935

Yeah, I love CJ's comment there....and of course Bartlett's intentionally blank, "no comment" expression in response!

[zapopaul]

"can I get you something? water? coffee? a pair of testicles?"

[WeblogTimT]

That is what i would do if i was a dad ;)

[msudreaming]

God if only I can do that with my future son-in-law...

[Phillycursed]

LMAO the handshaking was the best part

[NX74656]

I liked how nervous and stressed Ellie's fiancee looked waiting to meet with President Bartlet. I also liked how the President planned to meet with Ellie's fiancee during his meeting with the Joint Chiefs. This was a really great scene from one of my favorite episodes of "The West Wing". "The West Wing" is one of my favorite shows of all time and was one of the best series ever made. Thanks for posting this.

[Stonymypony]

I love when she says "your 9 0'clock is starting to melt. And of course he meant to do that. It's not like he became president just to run the country!

[tortythetortoise]

Of course he planned it, and if he didn't that means the Joint Cheifs know what he is getting himself into.

[drastix123]

"Water? Coffee? ...valium?" xD
