SPOILER
Poor Paula. Not her first "pity' date from a gay man? Eeeek! It wasn't a pity date, but I don't suppose knowing that it was an ill-advised-desperate-last-ditch-desperate-attempt-to-deny-sexuality-date would be much comfort. And as Ellery pointed out to Ennis - they have to work with this woman! Dupree really should have listened to Ennis, but I guess there's that dang human nature thing again -we have to learn things the hard way. He was able to come out at the bar to Wayne, but then I guess the conditions were a little more conducive.
Very interesting tie-in at the Carousel Bar with the upcoming trial, Lauren's father, and Nick coming out. Wondeirng how that will all play out! Great chapter as always, Louise.
Thanks, Marie
