One by one, the contestants run next door to get lunch. A hidden camera (planted by the Dark Enforcer) provides Stan with the evidence that most of them easily give up their secret identities (Fat Momma and Feedback do not). Monkey Woman really blows it, by volunteering her real name without even being asked. Then she suggested acting web sites, showing perhaps she is an actress, not a superhero. She is eliminated.

Earl‘s ex-girlfriend Jesse (Juliette Lewis) returns to the picture as there is a warrant out for Joy, and she wants it.

As it turns out, Joy used her girlfriends to get Earl drunk and get married to him, because she was pregnant with another man’s child, and she needed a husband. She didn’t choose Randy because he licked the pool chalk, and she chose Earl because he didn’t. Sometimes it’s as simple as that.

Anyway, at the time Earl was happily dating Jesse, and Joy came into the picture and stole him (and knocked out Jesse’s two front teeth in the process), and now Jesse wants revenge. Earl tries to protect Joy, but as they are on the run, Joy comes clean, allowing Earl to cross Jesse off the list, since he wasn’t the one who did her wrong, and says she must face up to what she did.

Then she proceeds to kick Jesse’s butt, and knocks out her (fake) gold teeth, which she asks Earl to melt down and use for bail. Entertaining, but not one of the better episodes.

Windfall Recap: Priceless

As Peter and Nina try to pick up the pieces of their marriage through counseling, Beth gets a text message that her baby is waiting for her in China. Do these things really happen to real people? Do they send you a text message that the baby you are adopting is ready, and you need to pack your bags? In any case, Peter comes to the conclusion that he can forgive Nina, but he doesn’t want to be married to her, and he tells Nina he wants her to be happy. To do so, she wants to be with Cameron, who in turn wants to go to China with Beth, and when Nina sees him, she isn’t so happy any more.

Peter, meanwhile, has Cameron’s note signing over shares in the company, which means it looks like Peter may be getting some control over the company, and Peter and Sunny watch Colin win the race, which means orders may be coming in so all is well there, and it looks like just a matter of time before Peter and Sunny get things of their own going again.

In the teenage club, Galina uses a ring to convince Damien that she is taking “his” baby to Russia, and of course Damien convinces her to stay so he gets to see it, and naturally he wants Frankie too, but Frankie is out partying with her new friend, the son of the owner of the hotel. Meanwhile her mom has returned from New York and is looking for a house.

Kimberly is throwing her son a birthday party, but all he wants is his dad to come, and she finds out that they have been exchanging emails for the last few weeks. She isn’t sure if she wants that to happen, and she doesn’t think he will show up at the party, so she hires Dave Winfield to come to the party. He does show up, so the son gets his dad and Dave Winfield.

Sean is out of jail because Tally planted the money in Park’s office, and he gives her the chance to come clean, but it looks like she took the money he offered her and ran. Park then shows up again and tells Sean that if Tally is guilty, she can’t give Sean the money – but for a small fee he can help him get some of it. Instead of giving it to Park, Sean gets a bunch of it in cash, rents a helicopter and dumps it out, right on top of Park. Nicely done.

No previews, no new episode, so it looks like this may be the last episode for a while.

Archimedes Steam Cannon. You’d think that Adam and Jamie would have learned by now not to mess with Archimedes. But apparently not. This time, the myth is that he created – or at least planned out – a cannon powered by steam.
