  Political Ad : The following is a paid political announcement. Elka Ostrovsky *seems* like a sweet old lady, but how well do we know her? We know she's been in jail. We know she was married to the mob. We know she lives with three single women. What's that about? Is this the kind of person we want approving appointees to the Municipal Utilities Commission? I don't think so. Vote Jim Powell for city council.

  Councilman Powell : I'm a disabled African-American Ohio State football hero, and I approved this message.

  Nate : Elka, as your campaign manager my first job is to go after this guy and all of his vicious, ridiculous, embarrassing lies!

  Elka Ostrovsky : There's just one problem. All that stuff is true.

  Nate : OK, we'll just add that to the equation. You now have a point zero zero one percent chance of winning this election.

• Elka Ostrovsky : Is everything all ready?

  Nate : Yup, all set.

  Melanie Moretti : What's wrong, sweetie?

  Victoria Chase : Apparently, years ago, when I didn't think I had a chance in hell of getting nominated for an Academy Award, I signed a rather unusual contract with the Mrs. Ladypants people. I have to wear... a Mrs. Ladypants... absorbent gown to the Oscars. Now with crystal litter-box technology.

  Elka Ostrovsky : You're gonna wear diapers to the Oscars?

  Victoria Chase : It's not diapers. It's an absorbent gown!

  Mitch : Well, look at the bright side: you won't need a seat filler if you have to go to the bathroom during the ceremonies.

  Melanie Moretti : [laughing]  You're very funny.

  Victoria Chase : So what am I going to do?

  Melanie Moretti : You're going to celebrate. We're all going to celebrate. Honey, you could win an Oscar. And, Elka, you could win election.

  Victoria Chase : You know what? Melanie is right.

  Mitch : She's beautiful too. Somebody else talk.

  Victoria Chase : Yeah, I will. So here's to everyone getting exactly what they want.
