Martha Shoots Up



Martha Shoots Up is the fifth episode of Season 2.

Synopsis
Martha takes part in a seemingly harmless experimental study.

Plot
Helen takes Martha to the vet for some regularly scheduled vaccinations. The doctor asks Martha if she would like to partake in an experimental study to determine whether it is better to ingest multivitamins orally or shoot up with them. Martha was a bit hesitant to agree at first, but after being offered a hefty cash payment for participation, she just can't say no. Martha begins taking part in the study, which requires her to shoot up with a multivitamin powder twice daily. Unfortunately, a freelance photographer snaps a photo of Martha shooting up and sells it to Doggone!, the most prevalent tabloid in the United States. In effect, Martha is blamed for the opioid crisis, and has her presidential approval ratings drop down to 21%. The White House is egged, and security does not try to stop protesters and vandals, as they believe President Martha deserves the punishment. Martha drops out of the experimental study without pay, explains the multivitamin situation to the public, and vows never to shoot up again.
