Over in Glenoak PD Blue, Det. Michaels wears a sex-ay shoulder holster and asks Kevin what's making Lucy late for their super-special Neighborhood Watch planning meeting. Needless to say, Kevin has no idea. Det. Michaels says that it's okay; he's got lots of free time tonight and they can reschedule the meeting for then. Kevin says he can't, because he has to pick up Carlos from the airport. Um, why does Kevin have to do this? He's RevCam's son-in-law, not his personal chauffeur. Det. Michaels nosily asks if everything is okay. Again, Kevin is clueless. Annoyed, Det. Michaels says he'll try to meet with them later in the week. Sadly, his awesome granddaughter does not make an appearance.
At the youth center, Roxanne accuses Chandler of looking at her commitment paper and following her here. Chandler says that he got the idea to volunteer there from when they talked about it months ago. Also, from reading her commitment paper. Roxanne gets rightfully pissed at this invasion of privacy, to which Chandler responds that the paper was "official church business" and he is a "church official." Then he laughs dismissively. I hate Chandler. Roxanne tells him that he's pathetic for volunteering at a youth center because he's still in love with her. Chandler, making like Matt with the exaggerated head-nodding and finger-pointing action, tells Roxanne that she's just as pathetic for going to church because she's still in love with him. Roxanne tells Chandler that she is so not in love with him and she has totally moved on. She may have moved on, but she hasn't moved very far, seeing as the guy she proclaims to have moved on to is standing just behind Chandler. And in case you couldn't see this coming from seven miles away, it's Paul the Crisis Center Worker (not to be confused with PaulSmith, the evil child who basically killed himself by possibly smoking pot and then riding a bike in front of Simon's car). Apparently, though it's hard to tell from Jeremy London's "acting," this upsets Chandler, because, as he so anti-climatically whispers to Roxanne, "I'm still in love with you, you idiot." No one says anything about how outrageously hypocritical it is that Chandler was man-ho-ing it around town two weeks ago for comedic effect, while when Roxanne expresses interest in one guy, we're supposed to feel sorry for him. Chandler, not the guy. Well, him too.
Roxanne enters Paul the Crisis Center Worker's office and asks him if he overheard her conversation with RevChan. Of course he did -- he lives in the CamVerse, where all conversations must be eavesdropped upon. He tells Roxanne to get things "settled" with Chandler, and then come back to him. Roxanne smiles as if this is good news.
