what? they took away her troop leader status?

TRACY!!! The gateway to the central valley (the Bou' is not making up that name) - home to girl scout troop leaders that keep, by all appearances, slaves.

In case you get confused by all the ass sex in san francisco and those damned liberal hollywood types in los angeles, the central valley is the MORAL COMPASS of California - where Californians go to learn important life skills like how to sell cookies for money and how much to pay someone to steal their child, keep them chained to a wall and make them do all your chores.

Oh but it gets worse! They've INVADED IOWA!!!
