Summary
Jennifer is at her parents cottage in a bikini borrowed from Amy, after Jackie had dropped her off. Mike arrives and tells her how he, Harold & Leroy have chased the film crew out of town.
Mike and Jennifer have a serious talk about Jennifer and Jenny Easton, and about being able to come home again. Mike tells her about Jackie's mother, who died in a hospital in Camden after having had serious Schizophrenia for years.
Mike suggests that she needs to accept being Jenny Easton, even if she does come back to Spearfish Lake to live, she will still need to go out and be Jenny now and then. He uses the example of Barbara Streisand.
After the council meeting, Mike gets back to the office to write one of the bigger stories of his career: LANDOWNERS TO PAY BIG - CITY FORCED TO BUILD DRAIN.
Don decides to get out of the office, having been lit into by Binky in English, French, and Vietnamese over the assesment district.
He drives over to see what the TV sewer surveillance crew has found, and chats with Pam about the Gibson's Water Snake, but she hasn't found any more water snakes.
