Simon Donovan strides through White House lobbies as a Secret Service agent, former Bartlet detail from Rosslyn, mentoring Anthony with playful headlocks and mom-love urgings while snagging coffee amid bullpen bustle. Flirtation crackles with C.J. Cregg—he teases their kiss, defies boundaries to tail her New York trip despite protocols. Off-duty cheer evaporates into lethal precision at a Korean grocer: Milky Way in hand, he spots robbery signs, draws concealed pistol, cocks it, slams the first robber face-down, confiscates his gun, binds wrists with bow tie, radios NYPD via wrist mic—reassuring even as second robber's bullets hurl him backward, lifeless amid scattered flowers, igniting Oval fury and C.J.'s grief.
