Kevin dials a bunch of numbers from his work phone, and gets busy signals at all of them. Some guy walks up and asks Kevin if he's "ready to roll." Kevin says he's ready to roll by his house. Guy says no, because Det. Michaels already warned him about Kevin's penchant for skipping out of work to kiss his wife on the forehead.
RevCam's in his home office, leaving a message on Sally's machine about Martin living at the CamPound. He accidentally says something about her underwear, then gets all flustered. He hangs up, only to see Asslee standing in the doorway, arms folded, looking pissed. I shall now copy her little speech verbatim, because it's so damn crazy that there's no way I could paraphrase it and still do it justice: "You know, I've known this family a lot longer than Martin's known this family: fifteen months and twenty days. But I don't guess you were keeping track. And I've been through a lot with the Camdens -- engagements, weddings, more weddings, car accidents, a baby on the way. And do I get invited to stay here? No, he gets invited to stay here. And I get dinner and a ride home, and not even a ride home, because I drove here. Do you have any idea how many people would like to be in this family. Do you?" At this point, RevCam regains the power of speech and reminds her that she has her own family, and her own house. Asslee says that they go out of town sometimes, and the Camdens never invite her to stay with them. Isn't she seventeen? Can't she live on her own for a few days? RevCam tells Asslee that she can stay with them the next time her parents go out of town. "Great. Well, that's more like it," says Asslee, and bobbles on out of the room. RevCam just stands there and thinks about the fact that he let a psycho take care of his young children. And when he finally found someone to replace her, she ended up being a psycho, too.
The Revster hears the front door close, and wanders out to investigate. He finds Matt and Richard sneaking up the stairs. When RevCam catches them, they freeze. Richard denies that they were sneaking around, saying that they were just being quiet so as not to wake anyone up. RevCam points out that it's 6:45. So what? Doesn't Annie sleep, like, all the time now? Matt says that he needs to talk to Eric and Annie. Richard decides that he, too, should be allowed into this conversation, then rambles on for a while about how many other people should be involved in the conversation.
