Fetus To The Wolves

Chieftain. Annie droopily enters and orders a spritzer. Buzz moves down the bar to ask if she's okay, noting that she left Thanksgiving dinner in a hurry. Annie says that she and Patrick broke up. Buzz asks why, and Annie says that Patrick almost proposed, and she kind of shut him down. Buzz is disappointed, saying that he knows she made Patrick happy. Annie murmurs that he made her happy too, but that she doesn't think they can come back from their fight. Buzz says that "Love means never having to say you're sorry" is bullshit; love means having to apologize all the time. Annie seriously seems to think that Patrick will never be able to look at her without remembering the things she said in the fight, whereas I'm pretty sure Patrick could easily be distracted by a butterfly or shiny chocolate coin.

Jack's/Celia's. Ben shows up officially to get the Chieftain's liquor license renewed, and unofficially to nose around about Jack and Marin. Jack tells Ben that Lynn will be leaving that afternoon, and that he's making dinner for Marin. Ben asks if it's really over between Jack and Lynn, and Jack says it is. Ben asks him, about that, whether he's considered why Lynn showed up in person to get her stuff, when she could have just had Jack send it. Ben suggests that although Jack might be done with Lynn, she may not be done with him. Jack looks a bit alarmed at this possibility.

Marin, all happy and excited, shows up at Jack's house. She starts to say she knows she's early...and then hears Lynn inside, telling her to come in. Marin enters, confused, and sees Lynn, hunched over on the couch. Marin asks if she's okay, and Lynn breathlessly says that she's "all cramped up": "What if something's wrong with the baby?" Okay, the way she just blurts this out as though what's happening in her uterus is not just public knowledge but no big deal, makes me like the character a lot less than I did the first time through these episodes. Even if she doesn't know that Jack and Marin are an item, it's still a douchey way of making the announcement. Marin, her face going hard, says, "You're pregnant?" Lynn asks Marin to take her to the hospital.
