In tiny Deerlaken, Gary tries to ingratiate himself
with the locals, who call him “D.C. Gary,” ply him
with homemade streusel (watch Carell devour
it!) and humor him when he condescendingly
orders “a burger and a Bud.”
Jack agrees to run for mayor, but insists Gary
run the campaign. Soon, the race attracts the
attention of Gary’s afore-mentioned nemesis,
Faith Brewster (Byrne), who enters the fray to
quash Gary’s new media star before he can rise
any further. So Gary has to bring in the big guns.
