Bill is the only one to vote nay. After the meeting, Bill and Roman discuss the state of their affairs. Roman says he has no control over what the state police do with Joey, but Bill just tells him to figure it out.
Barb calls her sister and gets one of her kids. Kim-Li puts her on hold, and music starts playing. Cindy won t come to the phone.
Barb tells her to tell Cindy that she loves her and that they can make it better. When she hangs up, she turns around to find Margie standing in the doorway. She definitely heard enough to know who Barb called.
Barb looks a little abashed and Margie just smiles and leaves. A tattoo parlor, where loud, screechy rock music is playing. We see Ben sitting with a shirtless someone, who is getting a tattoo on his lower back.
From the depths of the couch, the Adorable Princess Sammie (the sisterly unit) squeals, Nekkid Beaver! and points excitedly at the screen. Yes, Beaver is getting himself a Straight Edge tattoo that looks like this: sXe.
But I know that what you all are really interested in is his hair. It s quite a bit longer than it was last season. He asks about the Brynn situation and if they re still doing it all.
Ben says yes, but not as much. Beaver stands up and checks out his new tattoo in a mirror. I m kind of surprised that Kyle Gallner takes his shirt off as often as he does, given that he s quite a scrawny fellow.
I happen to like scrawny guys, but I imagine that s not the mainstream. He asks Ben if he thinks his father is leading him down an unrighteous path. When Ben says no, Beaver admits that he believes that his father is.
Oh, so he s become disenchanted with polygamy and the Principle. Most people believe you should only have one wife. What our dads are doing you and I, we can t have it.
I have no idea what he s talking about. Is he saying that smokers and drinkers believe in having one wife? And what can t they have?
Beaver goes on to bitch about Margie always running around in a short robe and Ben asks if he s complaining. Uh-oh, someone s hot for his third mommy! Beaver says she s hot, but that she s also Ben s mom.
It s the house your dad made for you. He then invites Ben to come pledge Straight Edge at some concert. No drugs, meat, liquor or cigarettes.
Ben begs off and promises that he ll fix the Brynn situation. Ok, I know I said I wanted a plotline for Beaver, but I was thinking more of the sexing-up-Heather variety and not the scary, long-haired cultist thing. Because in that scene?
He came off more serial-killer than Straight Edge. Kind of like he was gonna start blowing up busses, raping his friends and jumping off of roof ledges. Rhonda has come to tell Roman that the Holy Spirit has told her it is time.
Roman makes sure to tell her that it has to be of her own free will and she says that it is. She also assures him that he s some old rake to her and then he kisses her hands. Was anyone else scared we were gonna have to see them get sealed?
Angels will sing for us, Roman tells her. I vote for Sweet Child O Mine. The Guns N Roses version, not Sheryl Crow.
Bill drives up to Lois cabin, where he sees an RV parked in front of her house. He walks in and first spots some new leather furniture, then a pair of boobs attached to a youngish girl, drying off after a shower. You re not my mother, Bill says stupidly.
A guy calls for him and out walks Brian Kerwin, only his name is Eddie on this and he s Lois brother. The girl is his newest wife. They catch up a little, but then Lois walks in talking about double-load dryers.
She stops short when she sees Bill. Eddie starts talking about the Laundromat and is shocked when he realizes that Bill didn t know about it. Lois says she got a loan for the startup money and that Eddie has been advising her.
She tells Bill not to worry about it. You ve got your own life. Bill is the only one to vote nay.
