Signal Guy

Shadowy fugitive igniting Situation Room frenzy on assassination night, the Signal Guy draws Vice President Hoynes's ultimatum: custody in one hour or Virginia and Maryland National Guards federalize. Linked to covert signals amid Iraqi Republican Guard maneuvers, he embodies conspiracy's invisible pull—eluding capture while forcing Leo's team to juggle Bartlet's surgery, shooter intel, and foreign shadows. His deadline amplifies fault lines, testing resolve where domestic peril collides with global threats.
