Early in the episode, Deputy Liv Baker says they are saving for a riding mower, which would likely cost around $2,000. Later, persuaded that she needs a working car more than they need a riding mower, she is seen driving what appears to be a very fancy new BMW Mini, likely close to $50,000.
Also, let's remember that in the previous episode, she said she "doesn't have $65" to fix her car's starter.
So...she doesn't have $65 to fix her car's starter, but how much have they saved toward that ~$2,000 riding mower...and then suddenly she can afford to buy a ~$50,000 fancy new car? Her down payment on that car would likely have bought the fanciest riding mower in town.
Plus we get a lecture that men are only allowed to respond with "yes, ma'am", when women tell them something.
Here's hoping Jenna Lamia never writes another episode of Resident Alien.
The best part of this episode was Alex Borstein's channeling of Alan Tudyk's alien. So good it was believable.
