Word has it that the president is visiting the city, assumed to still be in New York City but that has possibly changed since that was only mentioned in the pilot although the stock footage seems to be of downtown Manhattan. There are assumptions that the mayor of whatever city it is in has some scandal involving male escorts, and Molly Hagan says if she goes to prison over their scheme to fool the public that she will be showering with other women staring at her. A silly looking double for President George H.W. Bush is used which makes me wish they had done with Golden Girls did, and just have the voice off camera.
