A packed arena set around the White House at night. The mansion is lit pink on the left and blue on the right, with bright arches of lights overhead. In front stands an MMA style octagon on a stage, surrounded by a huge crowd. Large screens at both sides show muscular fighters. At the bottom, big yellow text says I cant believe Obama desecrated the sanctity of the office by wearing that tan suit. The scene blends politics with fight spectacle for comic effect.
