Sorry. I think I turned into a Regency-era fop there for a second. I'll try not to let it happen again. Anyway, Roxie gets in her Jeep and pulls up next to Gus (the kid who tried to rape Mia) and starts to threaten him. Then he says she's "the slut who killed her husband so she could bang half the town. So she knocks him down with her Jeep. She does not run him over, though.
The Kat residence! Kat's coaching her daughter Emily, who's apparently some kind of yellow gourd in a children's performance which will take place at HarvestFest. Raymond watches significantly as Kat talks about how Emily has to fulfill her obligations. Then Emily sings "A-Tisket, A-Tasket" while surrounded by CGI butterflies. It's mildly heartwarming, I guess, if you don't mind the lousy singing.
Meanwhile, Roxie is having trouble molding Darryl's head into clay. (Be a nose! Be a nose!) She explains that she's a little distracted because she wants to see Gus strung up in the middle of town square. Yes, make wishes in front of the creepy wish-granting guy. Good plan. Darryl goes on a little rant about how women need to learn to harness their anger. Then he sits behind her and puts his hands over hers as she sculpts, and Chad walks in to see them reenacting Ghost. Naturally, Chad stomps off in a jealous snit.
Roxie confronts Chad about his attitude, saying "Chad, I'm a widow. I don't have boyfriends." I don't want to tell you how to grieve, lady, but even the Victorians allowed women to move on after five years. Chad walks off, despondent. He's also probably still in that snit.
Kat's watering her garden in a nightgown when Raymond comes out and puts a can of beer on the back of her neck to cool her down. Incidentally, do you know what Kat's last name is? Gardner. Subtle, right? Because she makes plants grow? Anyway, Raymond says that he knows it's probably too late, but he wants her to know that he's sorry, she's the love of his life, and he misses her. That's a good angle, Raymond. And it seems to be working on her. As they make out in the garden, the plants grow dramatically. She never really explains why she was wearing her silk nightgown while outside at night watering the garden.
