Description

Leo barricades the Oval Office after crowd dismissal, slamming Bartlet with Antares CEO Jake Kimball's ashen arrival: an 80-million-chip recall scheduled for Thursday obliterates every product line, annihilates the firm, vaporizes 98,000 jobs—75,000 American—and delivers a brutal kidney punch to NASDAQ as markets hemorrhage in the corporate death spiral. Kimball unravels toward suicide; the exchange embodies raw vulnerability, economic pulse spiking Bartlet's crisis calculus amid Oval infernos.
