Reverend TimTom tells Sue that she’s gonna be all right. Actually, he sings it to her with inspirational lyrics like “super keen” and “out of sight.” As TimTom strums to Sue’s delight, the clouds in the sky give way allowing sunlight to spill into the backyard. Young ladies everywhere begin to discard their winter-wear. Orson bikini season will begin as scheduled. The pool is open!

Frankie isn’t surprised to hear about Mike’s close encounter of an adulterous kind. She says, “Mike, you looked into her eyes and told her you understand? You can’t do that to a woman!” She also believes Mike when he tells her nothing happened. It’s one of the perks of being married to a guy who’s so brutally honest. He’ll never lie to her.

Mike and Brick are never going to be social butterflies. That’s just the way it is. But instead of fighting it, they decide to embrace it by working together. When Mike gets roped into yet another endless conversation, he sends a signal to his young son. Brick promptly heads over to his dad armed with an excuse to drag him away. That’s teamwork. And as far as we know, teamwork has always been socially acceptable.
