Weeds - Release the Hounds (Eopisode 31)

Nancy is still in mammogram hell at the clinic being grilled by Valerie, who is appropriately curious about Nancy's surveillance activities. Nancy asks her out for coffee, her treat, where she'll try to explain. Valerie agrees and starts to leave the room. "Can you, uh, release the hounds?" begs Nancy, glancing down at her boob. Valerie tells her that another tech will be in to finish her mammogram. What a great job to have when you need to question people.

Dean is out riding his mid-life-crisis-cycle, grinning maniacally. A couple of bikers ride up alongside him. One nods at him, indicating that he should join them. Dean happily does and for about a mile or two Dean seems to be living the lawyer turned biker dream. But, of course, the bikers are just messing with him and pushed him off the road.

Nancy asks how Tim is doing and Valerie asks Nancy how she thinks he is. His father's dead. Nancy makes another attempt at winning Valerie over by telling her that she has two boys and their father is also dead. Valerie is losing patience and says that Tim doesn't even like Nancy and she thought it was just jealousy but now she sees that it's because Nancy is a "crazy stalker narcissist wack job." Nancy nods and then says, "I started sketching again...Jesus, I do sound nuts. Well, it was nice meeting you, even though you're kind of a bitch." On her way out, Nancy hands Valerie the sketch she did of her and tells her that she can keep it or throw it out. Wow can we say desperate stalker. Valerie looks at the sketch and seems pleasantly flattered by it. I don't know, though.

Nancy, Andy, and Sanjay are discussing territories. Sanjay will be in charge of the college circuit and the gay clubs, "Because I'm gay," Sanjay is eager to point out. Tara and Silas come downstairs and inform Nancy that the Lord wants Tara to sell weed. Also, she'll make a lot of money for them. Nancy reluctantly agrees and sends Shane to answer the doorbell. Nancy goes to the door and Valerie tells her that she wants to apologize for acting like an asshole.

Tim continues honking so Valerie says she has to go smack him. A really weird friendship is born!Celia is at Sullivan's office and they are discussing celebratory plans for when (if) the referendum passes. Isabelle calls Celia's cell phone and Celia, irritated, talks to her while Sullivan gropes her butt. Isabelle is worried about Dean but Celia snaps, "I'm sure he's fine. God protects the stupid." Then we cut to a shot of Dean, lying in a ditch, bleeding and moaning.Silas comes home and complains about his role in the operation. Shane keeps trying to get his mom's attention but Nancy sends him out of the room. This is not good, that child needs constant attention. Silas and Nancy discuss the addition of Tara and Nancy dismisses Silas' enthusiasm by saying that he doesn't know anything about Tara except that she's a fundamentalist who sells pot. Besides, Nancy has other plans for him that will keep him out of trouble: she's going to take him to the grow house.Meanwhile, back in the ditch, a dog comes across Dean and sniffs at him, then lifts his leg and pees on Dean's face.

Sullivan and Celia are half-clothed and gushing over the referendum passing. Dean is all traction up at the hospital. Isabelle and Celia are standing at the foot of his bed. Isabelle is crying. "Will you drop the Steel Magnolias bit?" Celia says. "Why are you such a cunt?" asks Isabelle. Celia pinches Isabelle and the slap-hand fight until the doctor comes in. Fortunately, animal urine disinfected many of his wounds, but he will need several more surgeries, and that it will be a long road for them. Of course Celia has to make a smart remark that she is not included in that “them”. Isabelle, pissed, informs Celia that there is no one else. "What about the state?" Celia asks. Ruthless!Doug is waiting at the gate of his golf club.

The attendant says that his membership has been revoked from pretty high up. Doug gets towed away. Bad move Sullivan, Doug is fucking crazy. At the grow house, Nancy tells Conrad that she wants him to teach Silas how to grow. Conrad is less than thrilled by this suggestion, but Nancy says that Silas needs a positive male influence in his life. Andy and Doug are visiting Dean in the hospital and eyeing his nurse. Doug has power of attorney forms for Dean. Doug takes Dean's hand and scribbles a signature for him and tells Dean about the grow house and how money will be flowing in soon. Andy drools at the morphine drip and convinces Doug to help him find some clean needles so they can steal a few hits. God you have to love Andy love for any kind of high.

Celia is at Sullivan's office whining about her predicament with Dean and says that she needs to sell her Majestic house. Looks like Celia is going to have to move back in with Dean and Isabelle!Nancy and Valerie are sitting at Nancy's, drinking wine and complaining about the black out and discussing the overpopulation of the world and how it is doomed. They lie down on the ground and stare up at the stars together. They laugh and Valerie yells that she wants cake. Andy peers at them. She gets up and bickers with Andy, which culminates in her showing him her boobs. Nancy asks if Andy likes her and he asks who she is. "She's Peter's ex-wife," says Nancy. "Are you fucking insane?" asks Andy.

At a press conference for the new Agrestic/Majestic merger, Sullivan is giving a Bush-like speech about how "change is good because change is change." Nancy stands by, grinning, while Celia watches from her car, suddenly the ground starts to rumble. There's an explosion and a huge sewage geyser shoots into the air. Doug stands a few feet away and does the robot while Sullivan curses him. Nancy laughs.
