Winds carve paths across the bluff's commanding crest, unveiling Orford's orchard tapestry below—rows of fruit trees bowing under evening shadows. Magnificence pulses here, a visionary perch for Bartlet's presidential library, until the imprisoned owner's dangling donation twists promise into Oval Office agony, where grand designs collide with felonious chains.
