Mr. Crankypants Goes To Washington

While this sad, sad example of flirting is going on, Donna, Otto, and Josh are all talking on their phones. Otto tells Josh that "Bob" is on the phone, and Josh tells Otto that he'll call Bob back. Josh interrupts Lou and Jon, and Bon Jovi excuses himself to make a call. Josh asks Lou, "Living on a prayer?" Heh. Lou snaps at him, asking if he's not supposed to be on the phone, and he tells her he's holding for Bingo Bob. They start discussing some poll reported on Drudge (and I refuse to link to that hack), and Josh dismisses the poll as biased until he hears that it had Santos up by four points in Ohio. Josh shouts out, "'Ohio trends Santos!' That's the story of the day." Otto asks Lou if she's still pushing the slogan story, and she tells him it's dead. And then Otto tells her that the buses for Vinick's "Yes, America Can" tour were made in Canada. Lou tells Otto, "You're a very attractive young man," which I can agree with. Lou tells the reporter she's calling that she has two stories to pitch to him. Josh is told that Russell will have to call him back. Simultaneously, there's a story on the television about Sullivan campaigning in Colorado. While all the calls continue, we see a snippet of an interview with Helen on the television. In response to a question about whether the disenfranchisement of convicted felons should be abolished, Helen responds, "It's the largest bloc of disenfranchised voters in the country. Yeah, I think it's something we should take a look at." All the staffers on the bus immediately ends their calls.

Toby sits in the front seat of his car and dials his cell phone. He's calling Andi, who is just handing her briefcase to an aide. Andi asks whether he's still coming over that night, and he wonders if he might not come over now to help the kids get their costumes ready. Andi points out that the kids are at pre-school until 2:00. Then she looks out the window and notices that Toby's parked on the street in front of her house. He rolls his window down, and waves to her and asks if he can come in. Andi tells Toby that she has campaign events she needs to get to. He offers to tag along, and then realizes that she probably shouldn't be campaigning with a suspected felon in tow. Andi tells him to stick to the original schedule and come over at 5:00.
