Are you ready for some STRAWMEN! Today's episode is a pivot around which the central conceit / conflict of the entire series turns, and it's, frankly, quite good. Or... at least half of it is. In true Sorkin fashion what is a very compellingly performed and well-crafted epiphany on Toby's part has been counterbalanced within the script by the most batshit moon-frothing insane misogynist garbage interactions between Josh and Donna, and Sam and Ainsley. Shouts to Alice Paul, Quakers low-key rule. Direct action gets the goods! Musical transitions courtesy of the Moody Blues, TV On The Radio, and Seinabo Sey.
