As Bow points out, the explanation for that is easy: Hillary got more votes.
Plus, theyre holding the election during lunchtime on the cafeterias chicken stars day.
This is a classic case of voter suppression, Johan affirms.
Meanwhile, Diane is helping Ruby pick out an Election Day outfit.
According to Ruby, the three essentials for an Election Day outfit are breathability, walkability, and sensuality.
Dre and Charlies boss is distraught that white children dont have a white president to look up to.
Dre responds by vowing to pour even more energy into Juniors class president campaign.
Bow points out that this is exactly the kind of thing that happens to Hillary.
As of right now, Junior isnt the Obama surrogate Dre wanted so desperately hes Hillary!
Dres not giving up that easily, however.
Now Johan and Pops are weighing in on Jacks class pet decision.
- The scenes final joke is that this discussion is occurring in the midst of watching the recent O.J.
Made in America.
Juniors giving his stump speech another shot, and this time the pantsuit is nowhere to be found.
Commiserating later at work, Charlie tells Dre that 10 million fireflies is hard to recover from.
He tells Dre not to worry since Im sure you pay for your share of murder flowers.
Meanwhile, Diane is refusing to let her grandmother settle for a blind choice.
She gives Ruby one of those quizzes that helps determine which candidate you most align with personally.
No wonder they keep coming over and stealing our jobs.
She even utters the Republican candidates famous slogan, Make America great again.
Shes much more concerned with Zoes college tool.
Zoe, in turn, is not stressing out about it.
After all, she tells mom, everyone says its all about the essay anyway.
Bow then asks what Zoeys planning to write about for her essay.
Instagram Filters and How They Capture My Hourly Moods.
NEXT: White guilt
Luckily, the white guilt stratagem appears to work out for Junior.
White justice apparently appeals to Ruby, or at least Trumps version of it.
Demographics dont need to determine everything, even if they seem to for now.
Rigger, c’mon!
Junior, however, is ready to quit politics.
Hes tired of pretending to be someone else.
He doesnt want to be Head Rigger In Charge if it means giving up his own values.
Bow promises that wont happen.
Meanwhile, Pops, Johan, and Jack are still mired in political cynicism.
They rush out of the room in their excitement to vote.
Speaking of votes, turns out Junior got quite a few of them.
He decided to re-enter the race after watching his opponent force school janitors to clean up after him.
Turns out Zoey wasnt oblivious to her familys white guilt strategies.
She used it in her essay, and now Bows confident shell make it to college.
Dont forget to claim youre Samoan on scholarship applications, she reminds her daughter.
