This episode introduces the data link plot line that will become a major issue. There’s some fun hi jinx with a potential scapegoat. Beyond that, Catherine wants to rev up an anti-bullying campaign, which makes sense considering her mother is an incredible bully. ‘Data’ also features some nice Mike embarrassment, something which is always welcome.

Episode 8, ‘B/ill’

It’s always makes for good entertainment when high-powered political figures are sick. The West Wing had great success with this, and so has Veep. Selina is sick and most exert her power from bed, which makes her even more irritable. There is also a stellar side story involving Gary when he accidentally makes an illegal political move.
