Plot Overview

Walter was pleased when John assured him he was certain of a big plurality in the area. Walter warned him if he ever ran for office he'd have to eat blintzes, pizzas, egg rolls, and tortillas. Ada asked a bored Rachel to help her pick out a wedding dress and revealed Ernie planned to rent them a house. After telling Ada she tried to put a bee in Lahoma's bonnet about Sam, a crafty look came over Rachel's face. She elbowed Ada away from the icebox, inspected it, then sent Ada out to buy some all-important eggs for lunch. Rachel phoned to angle an invite from Lenore, who asked her over to lunch. Ada returned hot to whisk her up some eggs, but, edging toward the door and claiming she was tired, Rachel skipped out on lunch. John defended Walter as a public servant doing his duty and implored Bill to calm down. Bill announced it made him sick to his stomach that he ever softened toward Walter. When Walter started to protest Bill's verbal abuse, Bill declared he'll take it and like it. Turning the tables, a defensive Walter blamed Bill for trusting his mother, despite knowing what she was like, and thus allowing her to send Missy to prison. Walter accused Bill of letting Liz manipulate him into becoming engaged to his wife. Bill acknowledged the truth of that, but taunted him that Lenore seemed quite anxious to marry him at the time. At that, Walter hurled himself at Bill, who braced himself for a fistfight, but John threw himself into the breach and kept them apart. After admiring Lenore's home, Rachel put to her the question if it was a "thing" between Alice and Steve, as Alice would be nuts not to latch onto him. Rachel escaped swiftly when an enraged Walter stormed in. Lenore couldn't believe it and fled.

Quotes

• Bill: Walter Curtin. Public servant. Conniver and schemer. What dirty reason brings you to this office, Walter?

• Ada: Well, all right, laugh, but I love it. I never had a garden. I never even had a yard, and now I'm going to have both.
