Noises Everywhere (1)

Alle Freunde von Laura sind bei Greg, um ihm beizustehen. Auch Ex-Ehemann Richard trifft ein. Die Gespräche kreisen um die Tote, aber auch um die eigenen Probleme. Gary bekennt, ein Versager und Alkoholiker zu sein. Mack trinkt zuviel und ergeht sich in Selbstmitleid.

Everyone gathers at Greg's, who pretends he is fine. Richard shows up with the boys, and says it is very telling that Laura chose to die alone rather than with them. Val is furious that Karen didn't tell her Laura was dying, and she goes off and screams at everyone that they all treat her like she can't handle anything, but she has news for them - she can. She rejects Karen's attempts to talk to her. She later talks to Gary, who is miserable that he always screws up everything in his life. Abby slams everybody to the maid. Mack gets a little drunk and makes unintentionally funny remarks that crack everyone up. Greg and Mac go to pick out a casket. Greg sees an old man who can't afford a nice casket for his wife, so Greg tells the mortician he'll pay for the woman to have a top-of-the-line funeral. Mack confronts Greg on his lack of emotion, and Greg is offended.

Très déprimé par la mort de Laura, Greg ne veut plus parler à personne. Karen, Mack, Val et Gary arrivent au ranch, suivis de Richard, l'ex-mari de Laura, et de son fils Jason.
