Selina and team goes to Georgia to oversee their elections. Both the leaders try to outdo each other in supporting Selina's presendential library.
Mike can't get a hotel room. Gary and Mike end up voting by mistake.
Minna ends up their to supervise the elections as well. It is one big party.
Famous dialogue.

Soldier: Yes Vodka
Selina to Doyle: you have a doctrine now? What is it, "Boners are rare, don't waste them?"

The writers should be ashamed for this inaccurate and misleading portrayal of Georgia and the Georgian people. What was the point of creating this episode and dedicating it to Georgia just to smear it with lies? Absolutely terrible watch.
Georgia is not Russia - the writers need to be waken up from this idiotic Soviet fantasy that they are dreaming about. This episode being released in 2017 and still being so wrong is ridiculous.
I was hoping that they would at least get the food right but instead they showed a scene where soup was served to the guests. Georgia is all about hospitality and serving amazing feasts with traditional dishes - having the dinner table empty and serving soup is ridiculous.
And no, fathers do not tell their daughters that their brother should be president and not them in Georgia - that sounds more like where the writers of this show grew up. Georgia has a woman president by the way, hopefully the United States will catch up too.
What is really "grotesque" about Georgia is this show's portrayal of it.

Why is always so, for Americans every post Soviet country is associated with Russia.
Georgian police has different uniforms from Russian and in Georgia weather is not cold as in Russia, so police do not ware furry hats like in Russia.
Georgians has never eaten horses, again you are mistaken with another nation.
Again Nikolai is Russian name, Georgian equivalent is Nikoloz.
The temperature in Finland is lower than in Georgia. So Minna Häkkinen wearing the furry hat in Georgia is really ridiculous.
You could pay more attention to make episode more authentic.
Positive side, Georgian words were correct and not gibberish like in other American movies and tv shows.

As an American, my daughter lived in Tiblisi, Georgia. It is a beautiful, progressive, clean, forward country! To see it portrayed this way, is disgusting...not funny in the least.
My daughter was treated with kindness and always felt safe. Georgians are warm, friendly, proud, strong people. Their country is picturesque with a modern city scape and rugged mountains. Georgian wine and food is amazing too!
I zoom 2X week with a local woman. She was born and raised in Tiblisi. In addition to my daughter, she is the most generous, smartest, hard working, kindest person I know. I can only hope she never sees this episode.
I'm late in the game of watching Veep, just now watching and up until this episode, have enjoyed its snarky, quick witted humor. However, after watching the blatant disrespect shown to Georgians , I'm done.
Shame on you writers, do a little research first.
