Where we join Claire's drunken antiwar rant, already in progress. "'Support our troops'?" she yells at the CotW's family. "What a bunch of bullshit!" Ted's trying to get her inside, while she yells at the CotW's mom for the disconnect between her sticker and the gas-guzzling vehicle she drives. Claire's hearse is in the driveway, so Ted must have driven her home in that. And I'm totally sure they got fifty miles to the gallon, too. David and Rico come outside as Ted gets Claire moving again, apologizing to the mom as he drags Claire by the arm. "Yeah, we wouldn't want to offend anybody while they're supporting out troops!" Claire spits. David tells Claire to shut up. Instead of doing that, Claire rants at David about the war, capping it off with, "And the best thing she can think of to do is to put a sticker on that enormous shitbox!" "Take her inside!" David yells at Ted, who starts to comply as Rico tries to smooth things over and lead Mom to the passenger side door. But Claire's not anywhere near done, stomping up to the sister and going on and on about wounded soldiers. Yeah, Claire, I think Sister got that memo. Claire's now clubbing the SUV with her purse while David takes a turn at trying to subdue her. "Claire, shut the hell up! Her brother just died!" Rico finally yells at her. Which, believe it or not, succeeds in calming her down. "I'm sorry," she whispers, out of breath from her exertions. Jesus, Claire, why did you think they were there? To sell Girl Scout cookies? Rico goes back to the mom's open window to apologize as the sister starts up the car, and assures her that Claire won't be there tomorrow. Mom snaps, "I should hope not! She seems like she's on drugs." "She usually is," Rico agrees, and waves bye-bye as the car drives off.
