Josh

I have to tell you, he's ordinarily an extremely kind man, placing a very high premium on civility. Today...it's just been a very difficult few days for him.

Charlie

I think I should probably go.

Bartlet

Excuse me, Charlie? Can I see you inside, please? Come on, it's okay.

Bartlet

I'm Jed Bartlet.

Charlie

I'm Charles Young, sir.

Bartlet

But you prefer Charlie, right? Listen, Leo McGarry filled me in on the situation with your mother. I'm so very sorry. I hope you don't mind, but I took the liberty of calling Tom Connolly, the FBI Director, and we had the computer spit out some quick information. Your mother was killed by a Western .38 revolver firing KTWs, or what are known as cop-killer bullets. Now, we have not had a whole lot of success yet in banning that weapon and those bullets off the streets, but we're planning on taking a big whack at it when Congress comes back from recess. So, what do you say? You want to come help us out?

Charlie

[smiling] Yes, sir, I do.

Bartlet

Thank you, Charlie. [shakes his hand]

Charlie

I've never felt like this before.

Josh

It doesn't go away.
