Recap / Our Cartoon President S1E13 "Mueller Probe"

Go To

The President is jealous that his staff think Robert Mueller is cooler than him and try to win them back.


This episode provides examples of:

  • The Breakfast Plot: The ending evokes the titular movie, with Robert Mueller playing the part of Richard "Dick" Vernon.
  • Divine Right of Kings: Mike and Karen Pence only agree to all of the immoral things Trump makes them do because they believe that he was chosen by God for his position, and thereby questioning anything Trump says or does can be considered blasphemy.
  • Even Evil Has Standards: Trump's cabinet all think that destroying Mike Pence's wholesome image (and nearly his marriage with it) to distract from the Stormy Daniels scandal was low even for him.
  • The Exile: Mike Pence is reluctant to return to Indiana after he "gave everybody AIDs."
  • "Where Are They Now?" Epilogue: The episode ends explaining that Trump and his cabinet would later die in prison for their crimes.
