Episode Report Card Couch Baron: B+ | 515 USERS: A YOU GRADE IT "I Love You, Ken… I Mean, 'Kitty'!"
By Couch Baron | Season 2 | Episode 7 | Aired on 2008.09.07
So now that dinner's been cleared away, we can get to the Un!Comfortable! part of the evening, and without delving too deeply into the specifics, let's just say that while Kitty tries a couple times to involve herself in the conversation, Sal is looking at Ken like he's the quarterback of the football team and the best talent in the drama club rolled into one. Much as someone with those typically dichotomous abilities might feel, Ken is uncomfortable, and tries to head out. Sal stalls him with a smoke, but only for a moment, and Ken leaves, saying that it's okay for Kitty to read the story. Once Ken's gone, Kitty points out how insular Sal was being with all the shop talk. "Do you even see me here?" Well, I'd wager he's going to great lengths to block out certain parts of you. She's deeply hurt, and he apologizes, seemingly genuinely. With an effort, she lets it go, and he offers to clean up from dinner so she can put her feet up. She still doesn't look thrilled, but accepts the offer, because if you're going to marry a gay guy, you might as well wait until he's done the dishes to really call him out. As he clears up, though, Sal finds a lighter that Ken left behind. I'm not a hundred percent clear on the secret codes that existed back then, but I'm pretty sure that means they're supposed to meet down by the docks at midnight.
