The West Wing (1999)

S3E6 Gone Quiet

After an American submarine mysteriously ceases communication in the perilous waters of North Korea, President Bartlet faces a critical choice: should he alert the adversary or proceed with a covert rescue mission? Meanwhile, Abbey discovers that her previous malpractice lawsuits could jeopardize Bartlet's ongoing criminal inquiry. In another development, Toby engages with a member of the appropriations committee who aims to redirect funds away from Congressional support for experimental artists.
