Psychological Profiles of Letter-Writers

Referenced as investigator dossiers—brief, paper or digital assessment sheets that would condense interview notes, behavioral observations, prior offenses, and threat-risk indicators for individuals sending threatening letters. In the scene the files are conspicuously sparse or absent; Bartlet presses for them and Gina concedes there is little available, underscoring their nonexistence as a tangible prop.

Psychological profiles are referenced as scarce — Bartlet asks whether profiles exist and Gina concedes they're minimal. Their lack functions narratively to show that the threat is poorly characterized and that protection will rely on agent skill rather than paperwork.

Before: Sparse or incomplete in investigative files.

After: Still sparse; the exchange makes their absence salient and motivates reliance on field awareness.
