Episode Info

Synopsis

Comments made by Surgeon General Dr. Courtney Griffith (MARY KAY PLACE) concerning the medical effects of marijuana appear to reverse the President's stance on legalizing the drug. Bartlet asks her to resign, but she refuses. Ellie, Bartlet's middle daughter, further compounds the problem by speaking out in favor of Griffith, her godmother. After Griffith helps him understand the cause of Ellie's rebelliousness, Bartlet begins reconciling with Ellie. Later, he refuses Griffith's resignation. Also, Toby asks his combative ex-wife, Congresswoman Andrea "Andy" Wyatt (KATHLEEN YORK), for help with an influential labor commission. And a movie director accuses Bartlet of cowardice.
