[edit] Plot

The Special Prosecutor sets his probe in motion, but the White House is unhappy with him: he's not nasty enough. "We need a different enemy," C.J. tells Oliver Babish. Meanwhile, Sam and Bruno are concerned about the loyalty of a powerful California labor leader; Toby and Josh are preoccupied with a congressional battle over the estate-tax; the governor of Wyoming is mad because the Interior Department won't put out a forest fire; and Ainsley fixes up Donna with a "hot guy", who happens to be a Republican.
