Hard Candy Mary Christmas

Robbie combs his hair shirtlessly in the CamBath. The phone rings. Strangely, he pulls two phones out of the hamper and answers one. Mary, confused, tells him that she has the wrong number. Then she calls back. Robbie walks into the hall with the two phones, confused and clad only in a blue towel. Ruthie takes the ringing phone from him and hangs up on Mary again. She asks Robbie if Mary knows about him staying at the CamPound. "I don't know," says Robbie, "but look at my muscular torso." Annie walks up. Simon comes out of his room and asks if the phone was for him. Annie meanly asks if he was expecting a call. Ruthie says that she never, ever, ever wants to talk to the big, bad Mary again. She and Simon disappear. Annie glares at Robbie and takes a call from Mary. RevCam shows up and feasts his eyes while Robbie apologizes for breaking the nakedness rule. Robbie goes back into the bathroom, and Rev yells through the door at him. He says that Robbie can stay at their house until he finds a shelter in which to live. "Matt went home!" Annie bellows. RevCam asks if Mary wanted to talk to him. Robbie leaves the bathroom, and Annie gives him a filthy look. RevCam says that Robbie has a 4.0 GPA and is on the dean's list, even though he's homeless. If RevCam hadn't known Robbie for the past year, he'd want to adopt him. "You should get the divorce, first," Annie seethes. Damn, Annie. Mellow out. I mean, I know you're mad that Robbie interrupted your night of sex, and you're sad that the night of sex was only going to be with Eric, anyway…but try to cope, woman. Anyway, I liked this scene. It was a colorful pastiche of nothingness.

Annie goes to Ruthie's room and chews her out for hanging up on Mary. Ruthie says something smart-alecky and doesn't get punished.

Simon makes a phone call.

It's the next morning. Lucy tries to get the mailman to open a letter she got from a college. She's too nervous to do it herself. They make unfunny small talk. The actor playing the mailman hopes that this scene will catapult him into a recurring role on the show. Ideally, it wouldn't, but this show is horrid, so who knows?

RevCam asks Simon who he's been talking to on the phone all day. Simon won't say. RevCam invokes his parental right. Simon refuses on the grounds that RevCam is only nosy, not concerned. RevCam imagines spanking Robbie as a vent for his frustration with his own ineffective parenting.
