Porter is once again facing Annabelle, while Joshua is finally having it out with the two-faced woman. It’s not the entertainment they expected, but it’s what they’re getting.

As far as the secrets go, they’ll still be hidden and they’ll still be as dirty as the trash in a back alley after a two week garbage strike in August. But those are the secrets that Grace Gunn and Tommy Bam Bam Prue are trying to find out.
