Mary sneaks into the CamKitchen, even though she really has no reason to be skulking around. It's not like it's the middle of the night, right? Annie cheerfully asks her how practice went. Before she replies, Mary looks over at Dopey and sees his nod of confirmation that this was indeed the excuse he used for her. You'd think they would have got that part straightened out when she first asked him to lie for her. In any case, SuperMom is not even suspicious. When Mary asks SuperMom's permission to go to the mall with Camille, Dopey takes it upon himself to refuse. Maybe he thinks that with RevCam not in the room, his own possession of a penis renders him the first in command. ["I think Dopey's assumed possession of a penis is a pretty big 'if' on its own." -- Sars] Annie ignores him, thank goodness, and asks a few questions before agreeing that Mary can go to the mall after dinner. Her hormones obviously raging, SuperMom dreamily announces that Tom Harrison will be their dinner guest. She doesn't mention anything about feeling up his arms earlier, although I'll bet that's what she's thinking about as she leaves the kitchen. Dopey, continuing with his patriarchal bullshit, tries to warn Mary that Camille has a reputation for being "really wild." Yeah, you know, because that smoking in the boys' locker room thing is just so outrageous. When Mary tells Matt that he also has a reputation for being really wild, it doesn't even look like she's kidding. Now, that's just weird.
Simon and Ruthie debate whether to keep the money they found. Trust me, it's just as dull as it sounds.
Lucy simpers over to Tom and asks for his help in studying for her confirmation classes. Unless I'm mistaken, the classes haven't even started yet, but trust Lucy to want to begin studying anyway. Tom wisely tells her that choosing a religion is very important and that he investigated a whole bunch of them before he was confirmed. Lucy says, "I never really thought about having a choice in the matter." Well, guess what, Lucy. You don't. With RevCam for a father? Come on. You don't.
In the CamKitchen, SuperMom is preparing dinner while RevCam snacks from the salad bowl absentmindedly, so that we can see he's thinking deep thoughts. Of course he's thinking about Tom's alleged secret. Annie says, "All I know is that he's charming, good-looking and a very charismatic speaker." She diplomatically refrains from adding, "And way better at satisfying my sexual needs than you, Mr. Charisma." She does, however, stroke RevCam's ego by claiming he's better-looking than Tom, and then gives him a chaste, closed-mouthed kiss. Tom walks in and interrupts to ask if he can help with dinner. Annie starts discussing vegetarian cooking with him, displaying way more enthusiasm than she did while kissing her husband. Tom's idea for a vegetarian cream sauce comprised solely of vegetable stock and cornstarch sounds vile to me.
