Brenda's parents catch them kissing in the pool. Brenda hasn't even told them about Nate, or told Nate about Billy.

Answer: Runaway Bride

We see them watching "The Nutty Professor", Claire is laughing at the gas passing scene, but Ruth appears mortified.

9. David has to apologise to Keith because he will be missing the special day of the week they call "our day". Which day is it?

Answer: Sundays

David can't go to church with Keith because he has to go to St Bartholomew's, especially now he is being considered as a deacon. Keith is supportive at first, but changes his mind when he realizes David's ashamed of their relationship.

Answer: Port

Nate is finding the whole evening very awkward without Brenda, and Margaret fills him with suspicion toward her daughter's "manipulative" behaviors.

11. When the bishop is describing St. Bartholomew's church, which of the following does he NOT say about it?

Answer: It's a traditional church

David had been attending St. Stevens in Hollywood, with Keith. Taking on the deacon job here seemed to reflect on his unwillingness to accept himself.

Answer: San Bernardino

Cousin Hannah is also mentioned in "The New Person", when Angela breaks a goblet Hannah bought for Ruth.

13. What nationality is the "Nathaniel and Isabel" book?

The Chenowith's say it's British when Nate says the story sounds dark. Hmm, seems we Brits are renowned for our dark humour then! Brenda has "Nate" tattooed on her lower back, and Nate sees that Billy has Isabel on his.

Answer: Ginnie

Ginnie and Hannah are very close, unlike Ruth and Claire. After the visit, though, I don't think Ruth would trade Claire for Ginnie.

The two women seem to really rely on spinning class to relieve life's tensions. Claire told her counselor at school that she thought the duo liking the same man was creepy!
