RevCam pulls his head out of his ass long enough to ask the redhead how she's doing. She says she's doing great since she got a letter in the mail accepting her into college with a scholarship. Wow, she'll be like that ninety-five-year-old woman who just got a degree. Knowing full well that it is totally thanks to him, RevCam says that he's sure this is no thanks to him. She reminds him that she didn't even apply to college -- RevCam did, and for the scholarship, without telling her. How nice of the controlling douchebag. The redhead thanks him and hugs him, not knowing what horrors await her at Crawford Clown College. She hugs him for a little too long, and then RevCam pushes her off and says that he doesn't know if he'll come back to Glenoak, but wherever he does end up, "we'll always take you with us--" and the redhead starts screaming and gets insanely excited thinking that RevCam has just invited her, Mac, and the blonde on the road trip, even though he clearly did not. And this is supposed to be someone who was smart enough to get a scholarship? She runs upstairs to tell everyone the "good" news and RevCam finishes his sentence: "--in our hearts." And then he shrugs and says whatever, since it's no big deal to take orphaned teenagers with you on a random cross-country road trip.
RevCam finally finds the atlas in a kitchen cabinet. He pulls it out and notes that it's from 1996 and "a little dusty." Dusty, but from a simpler time. A more innocent time. A time when going out for ice cream didn't mean stalking your kids, when family entertainment didn't consist of kids watching their parents have sex, and when David Gallagher had hopes and dreams for his career. The blonde girl comes downstairs and asks RevCam if he's really taking them with him on the road trip. "I suppose you could come," RevCam says, i.e., "I don't want you to come, but I don't have the balls to say no, so please take the hint." The blonde says that she has her apartment and her job to deal with, so she can't pick up and leave. RevCam sarcastically says that it's impossible to get out of obligations like that; like, maybe you're asshole enough to pick up and leave your home and job, but that doesn't mean everyone else is, RevCam. Oh, no, wait -- everyone on this show is an asshole, so the blonde makes sure they can store their crap in the CamPound while they're gone, and that's that. Never mind that both the job and the apartment were things RevCam got for her and were supposed to be her big chance at a prosperous life. No, she'd much rather go back to living in a car. Whatever.
