Thought id join in!
Just read through every quote and knew them all but the one ive got to answer!!!
I can only guess that its something to do with Josh and Donna even though i know its wrong

leave my favourite quote, very easy though

"How many ways do i need?"
"I like you"

Hey, it's great to hear from another WW nut - welcome to our little gathering!!!

I can give you a clue about the one you're not sure about - it was spoken to Charlie. I'll say no more but will leave you to think on it!!! Let me know if you crack it.

Your quote isn't as easy as you'd think as I HAVE NO IDEA!!! Can I have a clue?

In the meantime, I'll leave you with this one:

One last thing, while you may be mistaking this for your monthly meeting of the Ignorant Tightass Club, in this building, when the President stands nobody sits.

I GOT IT!!!
love charlie!!
Its said by Zoe's boyfiend, cant remember his name but he's french. thought that little scenario with Charlie still loving her throughout the series was classic!

Your new quote, said obviously by the president to, again can't remember her name but the woman from the radio who CJ seemed to idolise.

Ok clue to my quote. Before it the character says "How many ways do you know to kill a man?"

My new quote impervious,

"the anal retentive side of you is not gonna help you get girls"

2 out of 2! Yeah, the first one was said by Jean-Paul, Visconte de Beaubont - Zoey's poncy French boyfriend that Charlie hated and the President hated even more... I loved the little chats he had with Zoey re: the revolution ("Yeah, that was a setback for the Beaubonts.") and with Charlie (I'm on your side in this thing, but just barely. Just by a little bit, because he's French and royal. These are very special, very limited circumstances under which we're allies, you and I.").Classic Bartlet moments!

The second one was said to Dr. Jenna Jacobs, who passed herself off as an MD/psychologist when she only had a doctorate in English. That scene was so great - that whole dead pig's skin thing was brilliant!!!

The "anal retentive" quote - um... I'm thinking CJ to Charlie? I think she said this when she lost her copy of the President's schedule and he made her sign out another one. Didn't that start a little war between them? She swiped his schedule and put it in the filing cabinet under "A" for "Anal" and by the end he had "crazy glued" her phone and demolished her desk! Excellent.

Okay, you've got me stumped with this one. I still don't get it and it's starting to bug me now!!!

Here's another:
I've done that a couple of times... didn't know there was funding for it.

That is of course good ol' Sam!
Think its something to do with dumping all your stuff outside a starbucks. I think a woman was complaining to him about the funding given to the arts and an example was that someone reciueved funding to dump their sfuff outside a starbucks!

My quotes from 'somebodys going to emergency' one of very few episodes i can remember the title of simply because of the song at the start! It's said by Toby to a female police officer who is assigned to protect him at his big block of cheese day meeting! classic west wing. ALso his whistling in the car on the way there still brings me out in fits of laughter

Ok my quote,

"I mean was it serious heart surgery"

Yay to the starbucks quote - that was it exactly - the woman was complaining, basically that modern art sucks and that the funding should go on making the national parks safer.

Of course - loved that scene - didn't Josh nearly get killed with a banana!? Toby had some really great banter with the officer too.

Yours - it's from "Gone Quiet" - Leo wants Albie Duncan in to advise on a missing submarine and Jed would do anything to avoid that. He asks for some other guy but Leo explains that he's just had surgery...

Okay, how about this one?:

I wasn't supposed to take them both?

ooo this is a toughie.
My memories a little hazy on this one but i think its Jed when he has, as the quote suggests taken one too amny pills.
He can't remember who anybody is which leads to a rather sureal conversation where Sam is trying to explain something to POTUS and all he says is 'who'r' you again?'

ok my go, not all that sure about this quote may not be accurate and i cant think of any other quotes to link to it so lets just hope you laughed at it as much as i did!

"who chainsmokes parliaments"

Oh yeah...I loved this whole thing - it's LemonLyman.com! It was classic Josh - from the "hi, sugarlips" through to the scene in which CJ threatens to shove a motherboard somewhere the sun don't shine!!!

The full quote is something like "It's got this dictatorial leader, who I'm sure wears a muumuu and chain smokes Parliaments." It was the little cigarette smoking impression that was so funny and the desperate "It's Lord of the Flies in there!" Magic!

Okay, how about this one?

Yeah, because all I had tonight was a nuclear spill in Idaho.

Okay - it's been a while so maybe a clue is in order. These words were spoken to Donna...

Ooooo you got me here.
Hmmm i guess its from the episode where, wait a minute, by golly i've got it!
Its in the episode in series 4 where there's a fire in a tunnel involving a truck carrying uranium i think.
Donna wants Jed to phone her old teacher who's retiring and Jed naturally has things on his mind.
The whole scenario with Donna wanting a special day for her teacher is very funny especially when Josh asks Donna to find out more about the woman; Donna says-"You mean what if shes a lesbian", JOsh replies "If shes a lesbian then we could talk, i mean what if shes a bcycle thief. do a Google search" [am i allowed to say google on here? will it get edited out or something?] anyway it's funny.

ok my turn

["God i love my country, Charlie get me the number of the butterbowl hotline."

Yeah, the nicest thing about this ep is that it's Josh, who despite his smart alec comments to Donna, is the one who write a memo to the President and who actually did research on Mrs Molly Morello - it's he who found out that she ran the AP English classes from her home when Twelfth Night was banned by the school board. Such a lovely moment when she's on on the phone and deosn't know what to say...

Yours is Jed - he has been goring the staff all week with the perfect stuffing for a turkey. Then Toby tells him to be careful not to poison his guests by not cooking the stuffing properly. Thus starts the whole argument about whether or not to cook the stuffing inside the turkey or separately. Man, he's such a geek!!! Hence the whole butterball hotline. Excellent.

Okay, what about this one? It's one of my favourites!!!

It's going to be Bambi, isn't it?

Wow I havn't got any idea!
wait, is it from series 5? because i havn't seen that one! no sky!

hmm think thats Donna to Josh after the whole "missle silo under the putting green" thing in one of the flashbacks to when they're first in the white house.


My quote from AGES ago is Leo to Josh in season 5 "technology stopped", "the personal computer?" "a more efficient means for gossip and pornography wheres my jetpack?"



ok.. how about

"its the sir francis scott key.....key"

Correct!!! Yeah, Josh is mocking Donna because she believed that there was a missile silo underneath the White House. He said, something like, "did you really think we'd go to wa under the Eisenhower Putting Green. "I'm too stupid to live!"

Correct! Donna has been duped into thinking there is a missile silo under The White House and it appears in a mag. Josh makes the most of it:
DONNA: Bambiesque?
JOSH: As does pertain to Bambi. There's a reason why we keep these missile silos way out the hell in the middle of nowhere--it's because they're working with some pretty nasty materials. Also, there's not much point in keeping nuclear secrets from China when all they have to do is take the free tour! Did it really sound right to you, when he said it? What did you think, we go to war and Hercules rockets come flying out of the Rose Garden?
DONNA: The Eisenhower Putting Green.
JOSH: Oh my God!
DONNA: I'm too stupid to live!

Anyway, he goes on about how everyone except him, have been dazzled by the lights and he's so cool about it etc... So Donna gets him back by sending a friend in to say he's from the NSA and her clearance is revoked because she's triggered something and hit too close to home. Josh falls for it and it takes a while for him to realise. He goes back to his desk to find Donna and Mr. NSA waiting for him:

DONNA: Hey! Just hanging with my friend Michael. He works in the Staff Secretary's office. Plus, he's got his own band. (beat) By the way, you know what your name is for the next month?
JOSH: It's going to be Bambi, isn't it?
DONNA: Yeah ... it's going to be Bambiesque. But on your good days I'm calling you Abner, because you stepped into the White House and didn't flinch.
JOSH: (mutters) I'm making phone calls.

Classic.

The Francis Scott thing is where Amy first starts working for Abbey Bartlet. CJ has to meet with some woman who's feathers are ruffled and is refusing to attend some dinner. Amy and Will go along but CJ cracks up every time she tries to say the woman's name - Mrs. Marion Coatsworth-Haye or some such... Amy basically makes up some kind of award that she tells her she's being given at the dinner...

How about this one?

You're gonna lose, and you're gonna lose huge, they're gonna be throwing rocks at you next week, and I wanna be standing next to you when they do.

aw man!!! thats Toby to Sam right at Sams last scene in "Red Havens on Fire"...

man I miss Sam! how sad!


(sorry I havent updated in a few days, work away from home and keep forgetting to check it)



ok how about....



"we're on the same team now so all this is pretty much your problem"

bit difficult...

Well... yes, it's tricky but I think I have it narrowed down to 2 possibilities. I think it must have been said to a Republican because of the team reference, so I imagine it was said to either Ainsley (if it's from an earlier series) or to Cliff Calley, if it is from season 6. I'm guessing Ainsley, but I'm not sure what it was in reference to, I'm afraid. If no one else out there knows, you may need to tell all!!!

In the meantime, how about this one?

I looked at the side at one point, you know, and I half expected to see you coming at me with a salad fork.

Jed to Toby, when the pair were discussing Jeds' delivery of the speech, in Five Votes Down. Toby jokes that he would have, if not for the secret service restraining him.

This one's probably v easy, but I just love the scene it comes from....

He said "whats next?"

Impervious - my line is said by Bob Russell after Toby and Will write a "joke" speech which ends up on the teleprompter... Russell asks for a copy cause he thought it was hilarious!


SummersGirl- your line is said by Jed but he is telling them what Josh's first words too him are after coming out of the gunshot surgery.. What an episode that is!



"No. 'Cause after the initial thing wears off there's just a guy with a violin in my house."

Thanks, McCoisty. Of course! I loved that speech. Jed really had to think on his feet that day!!!

Your line is Leo when he was planning a special dinner for his wife - I think it was their anniversary the day before and he had forgotten so he was going way out to make it up to her. He bought her pearls, too, then went home to find that her bags were packed and a taxi was waiting.

What about this one:

One more word out of your mouth and every local station but yours gets an exclusive with the President. Hunting season on me is over.

Thats CJ to the stupid wee blonde reporter who makes a comment about her changing dresses so much.



ok one more....


"That was the point. If I was trying to make her happy, I'd buy her a cabriolet."

Ha! I just watched that ep this very evening. How spooky!!! It's Jed talking about Zoey. Jean-Paul is now on the scene and he's not happy about it...something about her not being happy that Charlie spent so many nights working...

What about this one:

Don't listen to the naysayers. You've got a great future as a stalker.
