1 | Fall: Taking On The Number One Issue Of The Church Today
It's 2072, and the President's daughter thinks she's falling in love. And what's not to love? With her SmartHelmet(TM) and her Secret Service bodyguard "Muscles," nothing can stop her from achieving her dream of binging as many holiday specials as possible. But for some reason, she's not happy.
