Trivia
When Toby is sitting in his office being informed from Sam that he (Sam) is going to the gym during lunch and then subsequently when Toby is talking and walking with Josh, he's is continuously eating out of a box of "Official White House M&M's". We know these exist from an episode aired later in the series.

Goofs
When Congresswoman Reeseman approaches Sam in the gym, the clock on the wall reads 12:34. The camera then focuses on Sam and his response to the question on his hitting his head. When the focus returns to the Congresswoman, the time has gone back one minute to 12:33. The focus then returns to Sam offering to help. Focusing back to the Congresswoman, the clock changes from 12:34 to 12:35.

Quotes
Abbey Bartlet: Okay. So just ease up on the high ground.
President Josiah Bartlet: On that point I concede the high ground.
Abbey Bartlet: And I concede I was wrong about the thing.
President Josiah Bartlet: Good.
Abbey Bartlet: However...
President Josiah Bartlet: No. No "however". Just be wrong. Just stand there in your wrongness and be wrong and get used to it.
