My Name is Earl: Cost Dad the Election

Earl sets out to mend his relationship with his father Carl by trying to cross number four off of his list: "blew dad's chance to be elected mayor." Four years prior, Carl ran for mayor to oppose the other candidate's plan to redirect aeroplane traffic away from the affluent part of town and towards Carl's neighbourhood. His campaign was going very well, until a misunderstanding between Earl and a police officer was caught on tape and broadcast as the opposing candidate's campaign commercial. Now Earl submits his father's name to run again, even though Carl is adamant that he does not want to be mayor.
