In the episode, Albright advises Secretary of State Elizabeth McCord (Téa Leoni) on how to navigate a sticky situation with National Security Advisor Craig Sterling (guest star Julian Acosta), that is threatening to fracture her relationship with President Conrad Dalton (Keith Carradine).

She was sworn in on January 23, 1997, making her the highest-ranking woman in the history of the U.S. government at the time. Her term concluded on January 20, 2001.
