Summary
Leo McGarry has always dealt with his family problems and personal addictions with dignity and discretion but shortly after he is forced to admit to his pills and alcohol dependency publicly another problem arises- his youngest daughter Cadence has returned to his life.
Leo hasn't properly spoken to his daughter in two years when she did work experience on the John Hoynes' presidential campaign before leaving in a cloud of humiliation after her thesis was outed in the press as an attack on democracy. At least that's what Leo thinks.
The truth is a little more murky. Cadence and John had an affair. The problem now is that there's still a spark between the two.
Throw in the complications of death threats against the White House staff and their families, a world on the brink of war, and a press hungry for scandal and it's all just normal life for the West Wing staff.Series
