WW: Slow News Day

If you can't sleep fine, but don't wake others ;)

Let Toby Be Toby. And love him watching the clock, just itching to dial.

Do they have superannuation in the US like we do? Or just Social Security (equivalent to our aged pension?)?

Jed: "And if it blows up, I'm supposed to pretend we've never met?"
Toby: "We'll always have Paris." -

Have they mentioned Social Security being the third rail before? I seem to recall that same wording.

Love CJ and Josh's little chat. That felt more old school.

And here we thought Toby had no people skills.

Will & Josh highlighted the problem of doing things on the quiet.

Grow up, Rina. And even with his top secret mission, I couldn't see Toby taking any notice of her. Where's Bonnie and Ginger?

You really can't keep anything quiet in DC. More good CJ/Toby.

Apart from the fact you can just see Josh is going to stuff up Toby's project, what an immature stunt. And didn't Josh used to be the political genius? Why didn't he pick up on what Toby picked up on?

CJ doesn't meet many good-looking Embassy people? From that reaction she really needs to get laid.

Toby should go and thump Josh.

LOL!!!! She really had that reporter going with the cribs. And the ending was vintage CJ. Someone finally found the funny.

Checking the writer...Eli Attie. He also wrote 'Constituency of One' which was one of the other strong episodes for this season. Shows what a difference familiarity with the characters makes.

Poor Toby.

Why is Rina using Sam/Will's old office? I hope this is just for the 'top secret stuff'. Otherwise Donna should lobby for her own office. I don't hate Rina, I save my hate for idiotboy, but why do we need 2 exposition fairies?

Must be a change for Leo to be out of the loop.

And poor Toby.

Another great CJ/Toby scene. Toby laughing, he's got a gorgeous smile. And the cabbage...cabbage patch...babies...

Toby's willing to fall on his sword.

Now maybe if Toby and Josh has worked on this together from the start.

Love how ground has finally been made and back to petty bickering.

Was just thinking about not taking credit, watched 'Stirred' the other day when Hoynes took his name off a bill.

More lovely CJ/Toby.

It's one of the saving graces of 5th season.

I'm not sure if they've mentioned Social Security is the third rail on this show before, but if you listen to the real US media, you hear it. Past few weeks we've heard it over and over and over again.

I didn't understand the thing with CJ and the embassy guy - like you said, she doesn't meet lots of good-looking embassy guys? But the scene with the reporter was fabulous.

Overall, I didn't like the ep much, but then I don't care much for Toby.

Yeah, I'm not sure whether I may have picked it up from US news sites or friends or what. Was just familiar to me and I don't think we use the expression out here.
Either she was extremely horny, or drunk...
I can see that. Luckily I have Toby love ;)

I love Toby and Josh working together, though. That scene in the Mess is love.

Yeah :)
