Ruthie picks up the Lame Clear Phone. It's Peter calling, and so it's Peter who has to listen to Ruthie whining about doing a ton of work around the house and not getting anything for it. Peter tells her to shut up because he has a problem: he thinks Vic is seeing someone, and he needs to break that up so that his mother and father will both be single for whenever they decide to get back together. "That makes sense," Ruthie says, because like the "writers," she missed the episode where Paris made it pretty freaking clear that she has no intention of being with Vic ever again. Peter says he thinks Vic is meeting his girlfriend at the Promenade and asks Ruthie to accompany him on a spy mission. Ruthie says she'll try, but there is a pressing issue at home that may require her attention. Peter's been supportive of Ruthie through all her stupid crap, and the one time he asks for her help, she'll only give him a "maybe" because she'd rather spend the day lobbying for the garage apartment? What a selfish bitch!

In the CamKitchen, Lucy and SamVid are decorating cookies. Annie comes in and says that Mr. Suds is going to be really impressed with their cookies. The taller twin shocks me right off my new chair when he convincingly, and almost cutely, says he's a cookie monster. Then the short twin says the exact same thing but with none of the conviction and all of the speech impediments, and I remember why I hate the twins so much. Kevin enters and asks Lucy if she's trying to bribe Mr. Suds with cookies. Then RevCam comes in and tries to steal a cookie, only to have his hand swatted by Lucy. This would be a good time for RevCam to say that if Lucy's going to use his oven without paying his utility bill, then he can take whatever foodstuffs she makes in it. But he doesn't, because RevCam is a wimp.
