Moments of peace in the Pleasant household.
After school (and another disappointing report card), Lilith decides to get a new haircut. It’s gonna drive her parents nut!
Schlagwort: pleasantview
Mary-Sue gets herself a new job. She never really wanted to become a politician, either. When she was a child, she actually dreamed of being a lawyer and saving the world. Better late than never, right?
Later in the evening, she tries to bond with Lilith, but she just doesn’t have anything in common with that girl. It’s a shame, really. (If only she knew that Lilith wants to become a lawyer, too- Angela wants to be a famous actress)
Daniel tries to bond with Lilith, but she’s having none of it. Angela, on the other hand, would love to hang out with her dad.
Mary-Sue went on a small shopping spree in the meantime. She’s determined to drown her sadness in nice clothes.
Daniel is a surprisingly doting husband. He also tries to pay Dustin off to leave his daughter alone.
Yeah, whatever. Dustin gladly takes the money. He and Anglea can meet at his place and he can buy her a gift from the 50 bucks he got from her father. It’s not like he felt welcome here in the first place. Win-win.
The Pleasants: one big happy dysfunctional family.
A rather tense evening and a small peace offering in the morning.
Dirk needs to let off some steam.
Dirk is devastated and Darren’s remarks, however well-intentioned, don’t help. Dirk snaps and an argument ensues, where he hurls a few choice words at his father. Highlights include “manchild”, “Incapable of holding a job”, “pining after a woman half as old as you” “idiot escapist” and more.
Another one bites the dust.
What’s with this neighbourhood and teenage breadwinners losing their jobs?
“Hey, what’s wrong?”
“Ugh, I dunno. It’s just… everything. Skip’s gone, Dustin’s gone astray, bills… I- I should probably go home now.”
“Wait! Okay, listen: I know how you feel. Ever since Darleen died, things have been difficult. It’s going to get better. Trust me!”
“That’s a nice thought, but-”
“It will. Listen, feel free to come over whenever you need someone to talk to, okay?”
“Okay.”
