Now YMMV and doesn't seem to fit the trope.


* BrokenAesop: The argument for who should be mayor is pretty confusing; Elle has the skills and qualities to be mayor but lacks the charisma. Whereas, Wild West has the charisma but doesn't show any of the skills and qualities necessary to be mayor. Lois believes Peter only wants West to be mayor because he's afraid of seeing a woman in power. At the same time, Lois assumes West is also sexist and running for mayor for the same reason until his voice and physique make Lois find him attractive. So, are people hypocrites for only supporting a candidate just because of their sex? Or is the episode saying that charisma is more important than skills and qualities?

** Then again, given the fact that the previous Mayor of Quahog was a Cloudcuckoolander, it is entirely possible that nominating a candidate with any real qualifications would go completely against the natural order of things.

* BrickJoke: twice, Wild West says that he can levitate, but can’t do it now, to which different characters point out that’s something one would have to prove right away. It later turns out he really does have this ability.
