That's a load off my mind.
Well, thank you.

- So which kid is it?
- I can't tell you.

You know we have a "no blame" policy.

We have to protect the children.

Of course.

No, I don't.
You're gonna have to give me a name.

- Mrs. Scavo...
- Here's the thing.

Acting like parents
won't assign blame

is like pretending they don't keep score
at Pee Wee League games.

If you don't give the mob
someone to blame,

they'll pick a scapegoat.
I can't let my boys be the scapegoat.

- Don't put me in this position.
- I'm begging you.

They've been uninvited from a party.
A really big birthday party,

with a bouncy house,
a hotdog stand and a clown.

I wish I could help you.

There's gonna be a magician!

Tammy Brennan went all out.

Tammy Brennan? Topher's mother?

Yes.

Well, isn't that interesting?
Have a seat.

Meanwhile,
at the Fairview County Prison,

Maisy Gibbons was delighted
to find out she had a visitor.

But she was soon reminded,
one should always beware of visitors

bearing gift baskets.

You've gotta be kidding me.

Hello, Maisy.

Ta-da!

Stuff like this is why I love you.

So, what brings you here?

I need a favor.

I thought as much.

I heard that there's a little black book
with the name of your clients in it.

There is.

I was wondering if, perhaps, you could
remove Rex's name from that little book?

Wow. That's a big favor.

Those muffins better be really good.

I have some money that
I've been putting aside for emergencies.

It can be all yours, if you just...

Keep my mouth shut?

Continue to be discreet.

Gosh, I don't know.

I don't think it's asking that much.

All you need to do
is remove one little name.

But if I do it for you, then I have
to do it for all the other wives.

That wouldn't be fair, now, would it?

Maisy, please.
I mean, we used to be good friends.

Where were you when Harold
lost his job a year ago, huh?

Did you ask if there
was anything you could do?

Did you bring
a basket of baked goods

when you knew
we couldn't even pay our bills?

If you did, those displays of friendship
seem to have slipped my mind.

Maisy, I didn't mention it when you were
having financial troubles because...

- I thought it would embarrass you.
- I would've been embarrassed.

But it would have been
a whole lot better than the silence.

I have $14,000 in that account.
It can all be yours.

I'm not interested.

But you do get credit for one thing.

You came to visit me.
Even if it was for an ulterior motive.

None of the other girls from the club
bothered. I've been abandoned.

Guess that's what happens
when you become the town whore.

Oh, sweetie, they didn't
abandon you because you're a whore.

They abandoned you because
you weren't all that nice to begin with.
