Plus We Have a Motorcade, Thursday, April 17, 2014, 1st period
"Morning," Josh said, sipping from his mug of coffee out in front of a big white house.
Erm.
White House. It was field trip time! "This is the last class before the final, so I thought I should take you to where it all happens."
And to show off that he still had this kind of access. Cough. "This is the White House. We can get a tour today because President Santos is off in Texas for the Easter holidays."
A leggy blonde woman approached with a clipboard and a ready smile. "Hi, everyone. I'm Donna Moss and Josh has been bitching to me about you all semester."
"I haven't been bi--"
Donna cut him off with the ease of years of practice at this. "I'm the First Lady's Chief of Staff, so instead of just getting to see the West Wing, where the President's staff works, you can also see the East Wing, where I work."
"No one likes the East Wing very much," Josh interjected.
"No one cares what you think, Josh."
Josh grinned at her. "Right then. We'll go through the White House and I will regale you of tales of glory, and then we will eat the finest muffins and bagels in all the land."
"...you never said anything about needing bagels, Josh."
"Well, I am now."
"You think I can just make bagels appear by wishing for them?"
"I do believe in interns, Donna. I do, I do, I do."

Chief of Staff's Office
Josh walked in like he still owned the place (the current occupant would thoroughly disagree with that) and pointed to a white door. "That leads to the Oval Office," he said, "which makes up for this being pretty much a jumped-up closet. As Chief of Staff, I used to help the President mold the policy and message of his term, as well as being in charge of pretty much every person in this building."
"Not the East Wing."
"Thank you, Donna, but them too. The President is in charge, not the First Lady."
"Oh, did I miss you getting elected president? Congratulations!"
This could go on for a while. Ask questions if you have any!
