Now we're back with Lucy and Gee. Gee is telling her that a gentleman would never kiss and tell. I guess that means that none of the Camdens are gentlemen. Mary enters the room, and the Accordion of Frenchness comes in yet again. I hate the goddamn Accordion of Frenchness. Gee looks up and asks Mary where such a beautiful woman is going this evening while Lucy looks on angrily. I would be angry too if people kept calling my sister beautiful and not me, so I sympathize. Of course, I don't have a sister, so I don't really sympathize that much. Mary says she doesn't have any plans, but she's always open to suggestions. Lucy rolls her eyes, as if Mary's being transparent with her flirting and Lucy isn't. Please. Gee asks what there is to do in Glenoak, and Lucy suggests the movies, the diner, or the Pool Hall. Hmm...the only set they have is the damn Pool Hall, so I wonder where Gee will suggest going? Ah yes, he would like to go to the Pool Hall. Lucy leaps off the couch in her obvious desperation to Get a Man or at least Be Seen With One. I now see that Lucy has unwisely decided to tie her shirt up under her chest. It looks bad. Mary points out that Matt has one car and Rev has the other. Gee suggests taking the Metro, as if all French people believe that America has a subway in every town. Lucy and Mary don't know what the Metro is, because they are culturally retarded. Gee suggests a taxi. Mary says that a taxi would be expensive. Gee says that's not a problem. Lucy and Mary act like riding in a taxi is just about the best thing that has ever happened. Mary says that they've only been in a taxi once, in New York City. One ride was enough to make me realize that taxis are Nothing Special, and I was five at the time. Then again, I'm not stupid, so I guess there's the difference. Lucy leaves to change, because Glenoak taxis are apparently black-tie affairs. I'm just glad she's getting out of that ugly tied-up shirt. With Lucy gone, Gee smarms up to Mary and tells her that he hoped it would just be the two of them. The Accordion of Slimy French People plays as Mary says that maybe tomorrow they can be alone. Gee says that the anticipation will get him through until then. I prefer not to think about how that works.
Lucy runs into the hallway, where she meets Annie. She tells her that she and Gee are going to play pool, like this what happens right before you get married. Well, that may very well be true in Glenoak. Lucy adds hastily and quietly that Mary will also be there. Annie puts on the Angry Face and demands to know how they're going to get there. Lucy says that Gee is paying for a cab, and she's again way too excited about that. Annie is still angry for no reason and says that she'll call the Rev at the church and ask him to bring the van home. Lucy throws a fit and says that the van wouldn't be as fun as a taxi, and if RevCam knew they were going out he would tag along and ruin the night. I hear you, Lucy. RevCam is all about ruining other people's nights. Like mine, right now. Annie finally agrees to let everyone go, but not without much face-making and unnecessary suspicion and anger.
