DAG

While trying to adjust to his new job after being demoted, Dag's well-being is tested by the media, who have turned him into their new whipping boy; by his new, off-kilter co-workers, the B-Team; and by Judith, who thinks of him as nothing more than her own personal errand runner. In the midst of all this, Dag is forced into playing college counselor to Camilla when she announces that she doesn't want to go to college.

Judith puts her foot down with President Whitman when Dag clues her in about the real reason why she still doesn't have a new Chief of Staff three months after the death of her former one. Dag jumps the gun and hires the very first candidate for the position, Sullivan Pope, but soon regrets it once he realizes that Sullivan is a major pain in the neck. Soon, everybody regrets it after Sullivan screws up royally in his efforts to choose a band to perform at a party for President Whitman's contributors. Meanwhile, Ginger ghostwrites Camilla's college application essay.

WWF/WWE's The Rock pays a visit to the Oval Office in order to research a role in an action film, and quickly gets on Dag's last nerve. Dag, meanwhile, fears the loss of his new job when Judith is discovered missing and Agent Morton threatens to report it. What they don't know is that Camilla, feeling neglected after Judith cancelled a lunch on her, dragged her mother out for a make-up lunch -- as well as some quality time together away from the secret service.

After reading in the paper that literacy rates are nearing an all-time low, Judith plans to launch a children's literacy program. Sullivan convinces her to start it with the highly popular former First Lady, Katherine Twigg, who was responsible for her own literacy program in the past. Feeling inferior, Judith goes out of her way to impress Katherine, but Katherine hates her anyway for trying to steal her campaign. After Katherine calls Judith a dumb hick, the two First Ladies get into it smack in the middle of the program's launch. Meanwhile, Katherine's head agent and Agent Pillows share some shocking revelations about her to Dag, while Camilla's new relationship with an intern, Steve, is intercepted every step of the way by Agent Cole.

While Christmas shopping at a department store, Judith becomes angry with President Whitman when he tries to make her pick out a present for his mother. The First Couple's feud soon turns personal for Dag and Agent Morton when they are forced to act as message relayers after Judith and the president stop speaking to one another. Also, Camilla tries to find the right gift for Steve.

Dag's ex-wife, Jennifer, starts things up again with him, but their newfound romance takes a return to the worse when Jennifer mentions Dag's on-the-job blunder. So Dag tries to prove he's not a coward to Jennifer during his training exercises under the supervision of his tough drill instructor, Agent Kelly. Meanwhile, Sullivan and Ginger duke it out for the role of Judith's favorite.
