And now that we've said that-- this sounds like a pretty serious and Debbie Downer episode.    But just like in real life where we have the Royal Wedding to take us away from reality for a few minutes every day, now we have Stevie & Dimitri to lift us up when the MSEC world is going awry.    Storyline one:  President's son is back in rehab for heroin use-- so he's going to take out the Mexican cartels. I guess that's instead of going to family therapy.    Storyline two: Henry is tracking down the mole in the Hateful Eight-- and it's not Senator Smarmy. Or is it?  Storyline three: Even if you work in the State Department, your parents still question your choices. Poor Blake.  Hisparents want to buy him a condo to force him to become a lobbyist or consultant.    Storyline four: Ste-Mitri. World's cutest date.    Binders Full of Blouses-   I miss Daisy. Everyone at DOS is now wearing blue suits. EVERYONE!!!!!!   Bess had good earrings in a few scenes.    Corduroy-- making a comeback on nobody but Henry   Stevie rocks a Cold Shoulder and she actually looked cold.   To subscribe to Satellite Sisters on Apple Podcasts, click here.  To listen to Satellite Sisters on Spotify, click here.  To subscribe to Satellite Sisters on Stitcher, click here.     Learn more about your ad choices.
