Plot Overview

Harris sets up a meeting with Martin to talk about his "proposal" for the garage. Sara visits Betty Jean who says that the baby is fine but she can't wait till next spring when it is born. Harris tells Martin that he has the wrong idea about the taxi end of the business. Martin plays along but says that if he knew it were true he would want in on the action. Harris says that if he is right and they give him the low down on the setup, he'd be in so deep that he could never be dealt out. Martin wants in so that he could provide for his family. Harris says that they can use a man like him and begins to explain the set up. He ends by admonishing Martin that everything will be fine "if you keep your mouth shut… We hope nothing happens to keep your little girl from growing up in to a pretty woman do we!" Jack stops by to give Martin some good news. Golick has an opening for a load supervisor. Martin is torn because he has just been let in on the deal with Mitchell Motors and he can't be dealt out. He explains to Jack that he will stay at Mitchell. Jack goes home and tells his wife and sister about Martin not taking the offer. He says that he noticed Martin wanted to take it but something kept him back. Martin is torn. He calls Harris and tries to get out of the deal. "Spode…If you back out now-if you try to back out or if I get the idea that you are thinking of backing out, you'll wish you, your wife, and little girl had never been born." Harris says. Martin says that he would report to his new job Monday morning.
