Tweetering, pandashrews, and undying giddiness for James Madison—what else could you expect to find at a Miss America pageant?

In this hilarious, raucous, all-female “power-play” inspired by Shakespeare’s Shrew, contestant Katherine has political aspirations to match her beauty pageant ambitions.

Well, that and a semi-historically-accurate ether trip.
Here’s lookin’ at you, America.
