Fun Stuff

Goofs:

Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): In the scene where Leo and Adm. Fitzwallace are sitting in the Situation Room discussing what to do about Quamri Defense Minister Shareef, Fitzwallace states, "I've been a soldier for 38 years." The problem with this statement is that Fitz is a Naval Officer - a distinction in service branch that is apparently overlooked by the scriptwriters: a member of the Navy would actually refer to himself/herself as a sailor, not a soldier. In American military jargon, 'soldier' denotes one who serves in the Army. more

Quotes:

Admiral Percy Fitzwallace: Can you tell when it's peacetime and wartime anymore?
Leo McGarry: No.
Admiral Percy Fitzwallace: I don't know who the world's leading expert on warfare is, but any list of the top has got to include me, and I can't tell when it's peacetime and wartime anymore.
