So after months on the campaign trail the big day arrives, and the voters are left to decide the fate of both candidates - Santos and Vinick. And it is because there is little else for the respective campaign managers to do other than to constantly check exit polls and news reports, that control-freak Josh begins to gradually unspool before our very eyes.
But as usual, Donna is there to try to calm his fragile nerves/ego, telling him there is nothing else he can do other than wait (something that he hates doing at the best of times). Its a nice moment because for once they're not raising their voices and arguing over petty things (compare that to Josh's previous relationships where Mandy and Amy were always at loggerheads at Josh, even in more private moments.)
With the election in full swing, there is also an air of winding-down at the White House; that everyone there is living on borrowed time as they too await their fate. And for the likes of CJ, Will, Charlie and Kate, they have big decisions to make in terms of their future careers either staying in public office or trying their luck in the tough but far more financially rewarding private sector.
But of course, the big moment is left at the end of the episode where Annabeth discovers an unconscious Leo in his hotel room. It was perhaps the most logical way to announce his absence given that John Spencer has passed away weeks previously.
A decent episode, but you get the feeling that the book will soon be closing for good on this wonderful show.
