Dr. Katz, Professional Therapist Season 5 Episode 12
Katz is disturbed to learn that the city alderman he voted for is corrupt. He talks about what HE would do if he were alderman: “”I’d like to bring crime back into the streets and out of the home,”” and get rid of the “”criminal element”” (Ben: “”Criminal element? What, are you Batman?””). Ben immediately begins being his dad’s campaign manager, despite Katz’s insistence that he is NOT running. (Ben’s platform: handicap parking for everyone.) He makes signs and harasses Laura, inviting her over to help with the “”campaign”” (he tells her he used air quotes on the word “”campaign””).
