Episode Report Card Sara M: F | Grade It Now! YOU GRADE IT You Can't Spell "Exposit" Without S-E-X

RevCam and Annie can't believe Mary left her husband. "She'll come around," says Annie, adding that maybe this isn't serious. "We had a lot of arguments, but you never left," says RevCam. "Well, I did," Annie says. My god, these people communicate so freaking badly that they don't even know when one of them walks out on the other one! Annie says that "every mom" needs to have some time away from her family. Maybe Mary has late-onset postpartum depression or something. Or not, since we all know this show would never have a storyline that has the potential to be touching and informational. RevCam and Annie decide not to talk to Carlos about this, in case he doesn't know. Annie will lie to Carlos about why she can't go to New York, because lying is good when the CamRents do it, but BAD when other people do it. Thanks for the consistent lesson there, 7th Heaven! RevCam says that if a couple months go by and nothing changes with Mary and Carlos, he and Annie will go to New York and talk to Carlos. How much do you want to bet that by "a couple months," they really mean "a couple minutes"? It's none of their business, regardless of how long, especially considering Mary obviously does not want them to know. Fortunately, I doubt they'll ever get to New York, since Mary probably won't be too eager to give them those free plane tickets.
Hey, did you know that RevCam is a minister? He's on his way out to bore his congregation to death when his office phone rings. It's Simon. RevCam tells him to feel free to come home anytime for a "lecture-free" weekend. This, of course, is a lie, but since RevCam is telling it, it's okay. Simon says he needs to talk to RevCam, although not now since RevCam has to do his sermon. He'll just call later. Then...why call right now at all, Simon? No one on this show is capable of rational thought, I swear to God. RevCam says that Simon can just talk to him now and he can be late to deliver his sermon, since the congregation is pretty much on auto-pilot anyway. I hope we can hear the cheers off-screen when everyone realizes that they won't be subjected to RevCam this week. The sound effects team can feel free to use that "bo-oi-oing" spring sound effect in lieu of this, if they prefer. Simon says he has to tell RevCam something. RevCam says that whatever Simon says, RevCam will always love him. Unless, of course, Simon's name is Mary.
