601
Oh, hi, Rex. How are you?

602
Is something wrong?

603
Well, I was just about to grab dinner
from the motel vending1 machine,

604
and it occurred to me, what the heck? I'll go out.

605
Would you like to have dinner with me?

606
Mrs. Van de Kamp.

607
Guess what --
I found all my mom's old Christmas stuff.

608
Oh.

609
Sweetie, I was just coming over to talk to you.

610
I am so sorry, but something really important
came up, and I have to cancel.

611
Really?

612
We will do it again.

613
We'll have our impromptu2 holiday dinner, I promise.

614
Bye.

615
Mm, I got one -- Kelly Halsteder.

616
In eighth grade, she used to spit in my gym shoes.

617
Kelly halsteder.

618
Kelly halsteder.

619
There, look.

620
Two DUIs, one check kiting,
and an open bench warrant.

621
How tragic3, by which I mean yay.

622
Yeah, you've been a really good sport,
coming along on my shift with me.

623
Well, time flies when you're
on a stakeout in crack town.

624
So when does our official date begin?

625
Well, the taxpayers4 say 20 minutes, but I say now.

626
They're down.

627
Oh, thank you.

628
Honey, you -- did you read up on homeschooling?

629
Yeah. Gave me some good ideas -- well, one, anyway.

630
Great. What -- what have you got?

631
Well, you know how we both agree
that one of us needs to stay home

632
and parent the kids and one of us needs
to go off and make a living.

633
And then I suddenly remembered that when
I was working, I made a little more than you.

634
W-what are you doing?

635
You tossed out that little sacrifice
comment a while ago,

636
and it occurred to me I've made sacrifices
over the past six years.

637
I gave up my career.

638
If another sacrifice has to be made,

639
I think it's your turn on the merry-go-round.

640
L-lynette --

641
so if I wentack to work, then you could
stay home and take care of the kids.

642
I-I can't be with the kids all day.
I'd -- I'd lose my mind.

643
Aha.

644
Hey, okay, I get it.

645
Hey -- homeschooling is out.
Out.

646
But how are we going to scrape together
15 grand for this endowment?

647
Mm.

648
How, how, how?

649
Lynette was desperate to avoid homeschooling,

650
but she saw no options on the horizon
