The plot developed to Leo 6 years ago as the secretary of labor, responsible for supervising drugs, but he was a drug addict, and had been to a drug rehab center for treatment. Evidence of the incident is in the hands of rival Republican Filidlin, who plans to release the information after Christmas so that Leo will resign, which would be a major blow to the image of the president and his government , because Leo is the head of the think tank, and can be called the "Zhuge Liang" of President Butler. Joss and Sam don't want to fall into Friedlin's trap, and plan to use Sam's "friend" who is a prostitute, Lori, to get news of Friedlin's indiscretion in his private life to counter him , divert the reporter's attention to Leo. It's a good plan, but Sam feels very sad in this issue. On the one hand, he appreciates the boss he has promoted, and on the other hand, it is the woman he is attracted to. Although she is a prostitute at night, he is very unhappy, but he Try to transform her and be friends with her. I once evaluated her status as a prostitute bad, but now I want to use her status to gain information. For Luo Li, this is also an insult. Although she has such a profession, her profession is also ethical, but it is not that whoever pays more is willing to do anything, and is willing to disclose any information. To make matters worse, Joss was too anxious and had a bad attitude towards Lori, and even said some humiliating words at one point, and everyone broke up in the end.
In one episode, when President Butler met the children (mostly around 7 years old) who came to the White House to visit, he deliberately said that he was the "King of the British Empire" and "President of France", and asked the child to correct him. The president of a country, the children said in unison, America! What a brilliant way to strengthen the younger generation's identification with America as a country.
In another incident, Toby risked being scolded by the president for a state funeral for a homeless man he didn't know. The tramp was a veteran of the Korean War who had been awarded a medal for gallantry. But now he's a homeless man, frozen to death by a cold snap. What a heart-wrenching thing this is. The episode ends with a mix of images of funerals and Christmas choir children, giving viewers a sense of the spirit of America. It's an indescribable spirit, and the only thing certain is that it's awe-inspiring.
