Bartlet:
[on pain medication] What's going on here?

Sam:
Nothing you need to concern yourself with, Mr. President. Merely a perception issue regarding Toby and the financial disclosure.

Bartlet:
Well, I like to roll up my sleeves and, you know ... get involved.

C.J.:
Mr. President. Did you by any chance take your back pills?

Bartlet:
I don't mind telling you C.J. I was in a little pain there.

Leo:
Which did you take, sir, the Vicodin or the Percocet?

Bartlet:
I wasn't supposed to take 'em both?

C.J.:
Okay, Mr. President, we're going to have someone take you back to bed.

Bartlet:
No no no. Sit sit sit. One of you's got a problem, and I'm here to help. You guys are like family. You've always been there for me. You've always been loyal, honest, hard-working good people, and I love you all very much, and I don't say that often enough. [to Sam] So, tell me what the problem is, Toby.

Sam:
I'm Sam, sir.

Bartlet:
Sam, of course you are.

Toby:
Sir, the situation basically is this. I arranged for a friend to testify to Commerce on Internet stocks, while simultaneously, but unrelated to that, bought a technology issue which, partly due to my friend's testimony, shot through the roof.

Bartlet:
Toby. Toby, Toby, Toby. Toby's a nice name, don't you think?

Toby:
Can we possibly do this meeting at another time?

Bartlet:
No no no, I know my body. I know my muscles aren't, you know, but my mind is sharp. I can focus. I'm focused. You all know that about me. Here's what I think we ought to do. [beat] Was I just saying something?
