Adherents of The Repeated-Meme, J’Accuse!

Joe: 

For the last time, I'm pretty sure what's killing the crops is this Brawndo stuff.

CASSANDRA : 

The Adherents of the Repeated Meme! 

J'accuse!

The Designated Survivor : 

That's all very well, 

(and really kind of obvious) 

but if you stop and think about it —

(He goes over to the Adherants. Their leader tries to hit him, so he pulls off its arm.)

 

The Designated Survivor : 

A Repeated Meme is just an idea. 

And that's all they are, an idea. 

(He pulls one of the wires dangling from the arm, and the Adherants all collapse.) 

Not-Sure, Secretary of The Interior : 

For the last time, I'm pretty sure what's killing the crops is this Brawndo stuff.

Secretary of State: 

But Brawndo's got what plants crave. 

It's got electrolytes.

Attorney General FunBags OverThere :

So wait a minute — 

What you're saying is— 

That you want us to put water on the crops.

Not-Sure, Secretary of The Interior :

Yes

.

Attorney General FunBags OverThere : 

Water. 

Like out the toilet?

Not-Sure, Secretary of The Interior :

Well, I mean, it doesn't have to be out of the toilet, but, yeah, that's the idea.

Secretary of State: 

But Brawndo's got what plants crave.

Attorney General FunBags OverThere :

It's got electrolytes.

Not-Sure, Secretary of The Interior :

 Okay, look —

The plants aren't growing, so I'm pretty sure that the Brawndo's not working. 

Now, I'm no botanist, but I do know that if you put water on plants, they grow.

Secretary of Energy: 

Well, I've never seen no plants grow out of no toilet.

Secretary of State: 

Hey, that's good. 

You sure you ain't the smartest guy in the world?

Not-Sure, Secretary of The Interior :

Okay, look. 

You want to solve this problem. 

I want to get my pardon. 

So why don't we just try it, okay, 

and not worry about what plants crave?

Attorney General FunBags OverThere :

Brawndo's got what plants crave.

Secretary of Energy: 

Yeah, it's got electrolytes.

Not-Sure, Secretary of The Interior :

What are electrolytes? Do you even know?

Secretary of State: 

It's what they use to make Brawndo.

Not-Sure, Secretary of The Interior :

Yeah, but why do they use them to make Brawndo?

Secretary of Defense: 

Cause Brawndo's got electrolytes.

After several hours, Joe finally gave up on logic and reason, and simply told the cabinet that he could talk to plants and that they told him wanted water.
