THIS ONE IS ALL ABOUT THE PIZZAZZ FACTOR, YOU GUY! CUE. THOSE. JAZZ. HANDS.
Richard Scrushy (a name you can't say without sounding hammered) is a mediocre, yet very rich, white dude. He runs a huge company! AND GUESS WHAT? HE'S BEEN STEALING HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS FROM IT! Or, so says the government.....and the 5 CFOs who worked for him. But who cares! Scrushy is rich and totally the victim here...or so says his attorney Donald Watkins. So what is a mediocre super rich white guy to do when he get's indicted? GRAB HIS WIFE AND START A RELIGIOUS TALK SHOW, OF COURSE! This one is bananas, you guys, Kirk Cameron makes an appearance and God(dess) makes herself known in Gillian's apartment during the recording. Let's get to it, shall we?
