What the heck, I'll do

it during my break, okay?

You are the queen

of kindness and goodness.

You with child?

Shh, quiet.

I've seen that look on

a woman's face before.

Name was Annette.

I made sweet love to her

all through the summer

of 1948.

She got that sick look

on her face like you had

all through the fall.

I almost married her right up.

She lost the baby, though.

Close call.

When you due?

Shh, Joe...

Don't want Cal to hear.

You can't lose my job.

I'm trying to save money

so I can leave my husband.

Why, what's wrong with him?

Hey, there's no salt and pepper

on the table. I asked

for salt and pepper

and no ice in my juice glass.

- Can't you get nothing I say right?

- I'll go get

your salt and pepper and juice

with no ice.

But you got to promise me

you'll keep your mouth shut

about this baby.

What baby?

Good man.

Honey, Earl's on the phone.

- Tell him I'm busy.

- You don't talk to him,

he might come over here

and cause a scene again.

Yeah, okay.

Can I ask you a question?

Is it my imagination,

or is my left one drooping

down even more today?

I'm starting to feel like something Picasso

would have made.

Do me a favor, hon,

get Old Joe some O. J...

no ice... or he'll bite your head off.

- And some salt and pepper.

- You got it.

Hello, Earl.

Good, good.

No, I-I am glad you called.

You picking me up tonight?

No, that's fine, I'll ask

Becky to give me a ride.

Yes, I know you work hard.

Earl, I've got to get back.

We're busy here today.

Okay.

Bye.

I love you, too.

Mm.

"Falling In Love Pie. "

Oh, pretty outfit, Dawn.

Thank you.

It's a little tight

in the butt, I fear.

Oh, no worries. Men like a little meat

back there, don't they, Jenna?

I have no idea what men like.

Speaking of more meat,

does Earl have any clue at all

that you're pregnant?

No, he don't notice, and

I'm never going to tell him.

I'm just going to run away.

Wow.

How much money you got saved?

Not much, $1,

and I can save

another couple hundred

before theJonesville Bake-Off.

How much is that prize money?

$25,000, hon.

Wow. What pie you going to bake?

I'm not sure.

I was thinking I'd make one

of my real unusual ones,

like my mama used to make.

One where you wouldn't think

the ingredients

would all go together, but they do.

Huh.

Dawn, you're beautiful.

Your skin looks like

a normal person's.

Thank you.

I know what you should do

with that prize money, Jenna.

You should open your own pie shop.
