Beaver goes on to bitch about Margie always running around in a short robe and Ben asks if he’s complaining. Uh-oh, someone’s hot for his third mommy! Beaver says she’s hot, but that she’s also Ben’s mom. “It’s the house your dad made for you.” He then invites Ben to come pledge Straight Edge at some concert. No drugs, meat, liquor or cigarettes. Ben begs off and promises that he’ll fix the Brynn situation.
Ok, I know I said I wanted a plotline for Beaver, but I was thinking more of the sexing-up-Heather variety and not the scary, long-haired cultist thing. Because in that scene? He came off more serial-killer than Straight Edge. Kind of like he was gonna start blowing up busses, raping his friends and jumping off of roof ledges.
Juniper Creek. Rhonda has come to tell Roman that the Holy Spirit has told her it is time. Roman makes sure to tell her that it has to be of her own free will and she says that it is. She also assures him that he’s “some old rake” to her and then he kisses her hands. Was anyone else scared we were gonna have to see them “get sealed?” “Angels will sing for us,” Roman tells her. I vote for “Sweet Child O’ Mine.” The Guns N’ Roses version, not Sheryl Crow.
Bill drives up to Lois’ cabin, where he sees an RV parked in front of her house. He walks in and first spots some new leather furniture, then a pair of boobs attached to a youngish girl, drying off after a shower. “You’re not my mother,” Bill says stupidly. I should hope not. A guy calls for him and out walks Brian Kerwin, only his name is Eddie on this and he’s Lois’ brother. The girl is his newest wife. They catch up a little, but then Lois walks in talking about double-load dryers. She stops short when she sees Bill.
Eddie starts talking about the Laundromat and is shocked when he realizes that Bill didn’t know about it. Lois says she got a loan for the startup money and that Eddie has been advising her. She tells Bill not to worry about it. “You’ve got your own life. Elsewhere.” When Bill asks about Wanda, Lois says she doesn’t know where she is and Bill yells at her that she can’t be left unsupervised. Lois has had enough and tells him to stop attacking her. She then tells the girl to get off the leather because she’s wet.
