A news reporter early in the episode says she is at the Horton Wilde campaign headquarters, at the Hyatt in Newport Beach. However in a scene about ten minutes later, when we see Will Bailey at the hotel, the caption reads "Marriott, Newport Beach".
Toby is smoking a cigar as he tries to write the inaugural address in his office. During the episode Dead Irish Writers (2002), Sam scolds his old teacher for trying to smoke in the White House.
When LCDR Reese breaks the ashtray, he explains that it was expensive because it was designed to break into three dull pieces to prevent fragments of glass from blinding officers on an attack submarine. GSA Regulation AA-A-710E, which specified the criteria for ash trays purchased for the government, allows for test specimens to break into no more than 35 pieces, and only pieces 1/4 inch and larger on two sides should be counted. Smaller pieces were allowed but not counted.
Ash trays on nuclear powered attack submarines, when smoking was allowed in them, were usually made of metal, although some were glass that did not meet GSA specs. Coffee cups, which abound inside submarines, are made of glass. They shatter into many sharp pieces when broken.
