Notes
- This is one of only five episodes (the others being the Pilot episode, Take This Sabbath Day, Isaac and Ishmael, and Access) which do not feature a "Previously on The West Wing" segment.
- Although he appeared in four episodes during the Fourth and Fifth Seasons of the show, this is the only episode in which John Goodman appears credited. It is also his last appearance, although the character Glen Allen Walken is mentioned occasionally during the campaign episodes of Season Six.
- The excerpt that President Bartlet reads aloud from President Lassiter's letter is taken almost word for word from the closing remarks of Dr. Jacob Bronowski in the Knowledge or Certainty episode of his 1970s television series The Ascent of Man.
