Elsewhere in the room, Bill is educating his and Nicki’s sons, Wayne and Raymond, about Mormonism.  He tries to engage Barb in conversation about visiting the Holy Lands, but she’s too distracted by the fact that she doesn’t think the school wants her to come back and teach. 

Bill wants to know if they actually said that, but Barb flat out says she can’t go back there.  That Julie woman was at the ceremony and everyone knows.  Bill argues with her, which I’m not sure is the best course of action in this particular situation. 

Ben chooses this opportunity to approach his mother with the news that he wants to join the Navy, but that he’d need a Congressional recommendation to attend the Naval Academy and like do you think that’d be a problem with you and Dad being big polygamists and everything?  I have no idea what he’s smoking, but how could he not realize that this was NOT the time? 

Barb brushes him off and goes on to list all the people that could have exposed them: Wendy, the neighbors, Nicki throws out Barb’s sister and Barb shoots back with Nicki’s father, Roman.  Of course, no one pays particular attention to that suggestion, even though it makes the most sense.  Bill says they’ll knock them down one by one, starting with Pam and Carl, and then he starts back in on the damn dinner.  Barb cannot believe the assness of her own husband. 

She storms out of the room as the phone rings.  Margie answers and she and Nicki follow Bill and Barb.

Bill: This didn’t just happen to you, ok?  It happened to all of us.
Barb: I know that!
Bill: And I am trying to make it better for all of us.  The life we’ve chosen leads to eternity, but yes, there are consequences.
Barb: We’re not in eternity, Bill.  We are here, in Sandy, Utah and I don’t think I can live this life in Sandy, Utah.
(pause)
Barb: You may be our priesthood holder, but I still have a say in what goes on in this house!
Bill: We are going to dinner at the Martins and that’s final.

He goes to get the phone and Barb looks positively scandalized.  She barges past Margie and Nicki, who is trying to block her way, and goes upstairs.
