Inauguration Day (Series Finale) - After seven seasons of the Award-winning drama series, the Bartlet Administration prepares to leave the White House and The West Wing. While Santos and his winning camp are nervously gearing up for the presidential inauguration, current President Bartlet, CJ and the others fondly look back as they prepare to leave the White House forever.
This episode never aired because NBC decided to cancel it for “creative reasons” and air the series pilot in its place instead. It was supposed to air on May 14, 2006 at 7pm EST.
Helen is just beginning to see what life will be like for the members of the new First Family. President-Elect Santos wants Baker to be his Vice President but he’s having trouble finding a way to get a Republican Senate to confirm him. So he calls outgoing Senator Arnold Vinick for help. Santos needs help and Vinick needs something to do.
Josh has thousands of White House positions to fill and the stress is starting to show. He takes a trip out to California and asks Sam to play Josh to his Leo. Sam says he’ll think about it after making jokes about Josh’s hairline. Donna and Josh need to work out their personal and professional relationships. Santos and Bartlet use the POTUS-transition status to try to scare the Russians and Chinese to back down in Kazakhstan.
Many people who haven’t been seen for a long time return to mourn with White House and post-campaign staff over the death of Leo McGarry. Santos is faced with the emerging question of who he will pick as his nomination for Vice President. Josh cautions Santos about getting involved in the vote for Speaker of the House.
Abbey is in New Hamphire with Liz Bartlet-Westin and they are awaiting the results of Doug Westin’s campaign for a seat in Congress. Members of both the Santos campaign and the Vinick campaign must decide how to handle a tragedy, as the voters around the country continue to cast their votes for the next President of the United States.
Anxieties runs high in both camps over Election Day. Donna tries to calm Josh down while Bruno paces the Vinick War Room but both managers think the exit polls numbers don’t add up. West Wing staffers are watching the results roll in while Charlie tries to get C.J. to start thinking about life after The White House. Foo Fighters play and Annabeth makes a startling discovery.
