Episode Report Card Sara M: A+ | Grade It Now! YOU GRADE IT Here They Come, Walking Down The Street
By Sara M | Season 3 | Episode 8 | Aired on 11.15.1998
Meanwhile, Diane is playing basketball by herself. How sad for her. She takes a seat to gobble down some pills and washes them down with...is that soda? Oh no! RevCam said that soda INCREASES the risk of angina! Dun dun dunnnnn. Mary walks up and asks Diane if she listened to anything RevCam said. Diane says that her dad knows what he's talking about too, and she's fine. With fake tears in her eyes, Mary says, "You know, I came to talk to you tonight because I thought I could get you to do the right thing and stop taking those pills, but now I realize that I can't make you do something that you don't want to do!" "Good," says Diane. Ha ha! In your sanctimonious face, Mary! Mary says she doesn't want to be friends with Diane, and starts to walk away. You'd think that Diane would be relieved that she no longer has to hang out with Mary, but instead she tells Mary that she'll quit taking the pills as soon as the basketball season ends, as long as Mary stops bugging her about them. Mary agrees. Diane celebrates the restored friendship by practically fellating her bottle of orange soda as she guzzles it, gulping loudly. Diane and Mary decide to go see the rest of The Flower and Vegetable Show, as soon as they play a game of twenty-one. Guys, they're already halfway through their one song over there -- I don't think you have time to dilly-dally. Their game ends abruptly as Diane finally Learns Her Lesson by getting angina and collapsing. Mary looks upset, but she shouldn't be. After all, now she doesn't have to go to that terrible concert.
Inside the CamVan, RevCam and Annie wonder why Mary didn't make it to the show. They quickly push their eldest daughter to the back of their closed minds, however, as they discuss how much fun they had. RevCam says that Annie made the triangle "whale, baby! Whale!" Come on now, RevCam! Annie may be grossly pregnant with twins, but she's not a whale! A manatee, maybe. RevCam and Annie notice some sirens up ahead, so they pull over to investigate. Another reason to hate the Camdens: they're rubberneckers. RevCam and Annie get out of the van running. What a coincidence -- Mary's there. She's understandably upset about what just happened. Jessica Biel actually does a good job delivering her lines here, which just about gave me angina myself, I was so shocked. RevCam walks over to the ambulance and starts asking the EMTs what's going on, which I'm pretty sure they're not allowed to tell him, as Diane is wheeled into the ambulance. Her father watches, upset, then looks up and sees RevCam. Diane's dad mouths something to him here, which is probably "I'm sorry" but would have been more satisfying and realistic if it was "fuck you." Then he climbs into the ambulance and RevCam walks back to Mary and Annie.
