Jet! Set!

Blake and Dex McDexter are figuring out how quell a rising brouhaha over Blake's confusion and inability to remember how many houses the McCarringtons own. When he was asked this in an interview by Steven, he responded "I'll have to have my staff get back to you"!

This seriously puts a dent in Dex's narrative of how Blake and Krystle McCarrington are just simple folks who could never resemble their elitist (community organizer) opponent. But, wouldn't you know that both Blake and Dex used Blake's past POW status as his excuse?! "Don't forget! POW is the reason for the political season!"

Also, Blake sent two of his (pasty white, paunchy, balding, conservative - how diverse!) colleagues to go represent him at a recently-invaded Russian break-away state.

Then, to spice things up a bit, Krystle decided to fly her private jet to go there too, to visit their wounded vets and work on the removal of previously unknown landmines!! Was it simply a coincidence that the story broke at the same time that Blake's opponent's wife was addressing their party's National Convention?


Luckily for Blake, after he claimed on national TV during a religious debate that his definition of "rich" was "people with income of more than $5 million", he was talked out of starting a new attack group called "Uppity Negro Men for McCarrington", by Dex pointing out that it might be "too presumptuous", and Steven claiming it "shows lack of confidence". Just kidding... (about that very last part).
