The wacky CamJinks continue as Ruthie stands up on someone's bed in the attic bedroom so she can look out the window and wait for the arrival of Mr. and Mrs. Dopey. Fortunately for her, they're just getting out of the DopeMobile now. Ruthie knocks frantically on the window, trying to get their attention, but they're too busy making out to notice her. I'm not sure what she would have done if they'd looked up at her anyway -- smiled and waved, maybe? Lucy and Mary walk into the room to see Ruthie knocking on the window. That doesn't even tip them off to the arrival of Dopey, though, and it's not until Ruthie jumps down off the bed and runs out of the room that the older girls think to climb up on the bed themselves and look out the window. It's hard to tell, but I think they're wearing street shoes as they trample the pillows of whoever's bed this is. How charming. Hygienic, too. When they see that Dopey has arrived, they run downstairs, waving their arms in a zany manner not seen since the heyday of Three's Company. They run past Annie and the twins in the upstairs hallway. SuperMom realizes that Dopey must be home, so she starts running toward the stairs herself. She's so excited that she almost leaves a twin behind. Considering the kind of parenting she and Eric give the boys, I'm a little surprised that StuporMom even goes back to retrieve the forgotten twin.
Ruthie is on the front porch with Mr. and Mrs. Dopey. Lucy and Mary are trying to open the front door, but Matt is holding it closed from the outside while he insists that he has something to tell Ruthie before he talks to the others. It's pretty funny when Dopey lets go of the doorknob and Lucy and Mary go sailing backwards. I'm hoping to see them fall on their asses, but Robbie catches Mary in his arms. He almost gets to cop a feel at the same time -- though Adam LaVorgna probably doesn't care about that these days. We get a close-up of the twins, and it looks like they're about to speak, but fortunately, they don't. Dopey suggests that everyone repair to the living room. Plot Contrivance stands there and looks a little overwhelmed by the fact that the whole damn CamFam is standing in the foyer, staring at her and Dopey. What the hell kind of freak family did she marry into anyway?
