President Bartlet's Bedroom Breakfast
Steward thrusts breakfast into President Bartlet's bedroom orbit, where he claims his chair and digs in—fork stabbing eggs or spoon swirling cereal amid poll charts and staff glares. Steam curls from hot plates, coffee aroma cuts the tension as C.J. hovers, Leo redirects, Zoey interjects; the meal anchors Bartlet's morning ritual, uneaten details fading behind his Roush fixation but pulsing with domestic insistence against political storm.
