Graduation Present (unnamed personal gift; West Wing context)
A small, unnamed graduation present referenced only as the motive for a girl's interaction with Sam. The script supplies no physical specifics — material, dimensions, packaging, or distinctive markings remain unspecified. Characters treat it as a private token exchanged around a graduation event; its mention registers as interpersonal context rather than a visually described prop.

Purpose
A personal celebratory gift connected to a graduation; functions practically as the stated reason for the girl's meeting or contact with Sam.
Significance
Serves as a narrative pretext that links the girl to Sam and frames the disputed photo/storyline; the present's invocation helps situate motives and undercuts claims of impropriety, thereby influencing the episode's damage-control decisions and political vulnerability.
