That's a Sorkin trademark Almir, which is where I think the show could be edited a little as every righteous character having their soliloquies in every show does get a little wearing. There's a thought amongst some critics that these days Sorkin works best with people who make him tighten up his writing; like David Fincher. The Social Network was superb, and Fincher's no nonsense approach really honed Sorkin's work and brought the best out of him. That said - he's still one of the best writers around, but sometimes less is more.
