we go out with our billboards next week

as far down as Provo

and we're gonna saturate the Salt Lake market.

26 billboards is a lot.

And I have to say, in my three terms as party chairman,

you were the first candidate to place billboards

- outside of his own district. - That's what I've been telling him, Dick.

But Leslie Newton usher has run for the seat twice before.

She's a known commodity. - Yes, but as a democrat in a republican district.

You've got the edge here and I wouldn't provoke a spending war.

She's got mighty deep pockets.

Which gets to what I want to ask you, Dick...

if we can count on the party for any support. Deep pockets.

We can help you with names and share donor lists,

but that's about it.

Have you taken any time off since the nomination?

We were hoping for a breather,

but it has been full steam ahead.

Bill has the stamina of a teenager.

Lucky you.

Why don't you ride that trustee thing?

You've got some free media

and it's a good white-knight issue, cleaning up juniper creek.

Well, I have been a bit out of the loop during the campaign,

but you're right.

I've got a meeting of the advisory committee in the morning.

Dick: So are you breaking up the UEB or not?

Bill: I think so. I've presented my ideas

to the trustee. I've just been waiting to hear back from him.

Excuse me.

I need to visit the ladies' room.

Barb.

An

so...

You're... you're working here now?

Yes.

Oh, crap. Bill.

Ana. It's good to see you.

Congratulations to...?

Is it...?

Why didn't you tell us?

I didn't want to be a burden.

I have to go back to work.

I have a party of 12.

How are things going?

Adaleen: Oh, we're having a fabulous time

getting to know one another.

And I've just been assigned my new marital bedroom.

Asked you... please do not discuss that with me

fine. I'm just saying my new room adjoins Cara Lynn's.

We share a toilet... just like sisters.

Look. You are not sisters. - I know that.

We're painting fluffy clouds.

And I've sewn us matching outfits.

Please don't wear matching outfits.

well, she needs something.

She's taken a bit to dressing like a whore.

And after my sealing, I will be one of her mothers.

Oh, no you won't. I am her mother.

You are my mother. You are her grandmother.

Don't push me.

You need to find peace with my pending remarriage.

I want your blessing.

Mama, just please have her back on Sunday.

I ran these in Boise and Pocatello last Sunday to test the waters.

Test the waters? For what?

Utah's our market. Why are we running ads in Idaho?

I'm coming into the home stretch of my campaign

against an opponent known to fight dirty.

I may be exposed as a polygamist.

Or I might have to preempt and expose myself.

- Tommy: Whoa whoa whoa, Bill. - A wider net might not be all that bad.

That's not our deal, Bill. At all.

Mormon money is not the only money out there.

I think we should run one more set of these ads to get our marketing guy to track

and see if we're pulling from outside out Utah base.

I'm just trying to be prudent here.

How long have you been thinking about this?

Jerry, this casino is as much my family's lifeline as it is yours.

You don't know what you're talking about.

Without this casino, we get ground back into poverty.

- I understand that. - No, you don't understand.

I would never do anything to jeopardize your interests.

I'm just expanding the business model, not changing it.

All right, we're going to continue this conversation.

Bill, Marilyn Densham's coming in tomorrow

for her formal presentation.

I know how you feel about her, but I want to hear her out.

Fine.

- ( Whispers ) - What is it?

All right. - What on earth is going on?

We were in the restaurant last night

and do I have news for you.

- Ana was there... - working?

Yes, moonlighting, the poor thing...

and pregnant... out to here.

Pregnant? - Bill and I ran over to hug her

and she was so frightened to see us. - How pregnant?

Appropriately.

She was embarrassed and shamed.

We... we know how prideful Ana is.

And on her feet 15 hours a day

just to make ends meet.

It was very emotional.

How was Bill?

Well, how would you imagine? He was devastated.

Wrestling with his feelings and beliefs.

We prayed together last night

but he feels heavenly father has closed the door on Ana.

Why are we assuming this is Bill's baby? - Nicki, we are.

Bill's running for office. This could be a scam.

If it was a scam, she'd hardly be avoiding us, would she?

But the marriage lasted 48 hours.

Conceiving in 48 hours?

That's hitting a real bull's-eye. That's all I'm saying.

And Bill was right. That marriage was never meant to be.

Well, we do not turn our backs on someone we love

who's carrying our child which,

given the recent history of our marriage,

ought to mean something to some of us.

We're going to support her in every way we can

and we're going to make room for that baby in our lives.

Bill will come around.

Why doesn't anyone believe I'm trying to get pregnant?

We don't need to scrounge around a restaurant for a baby.

Did you see that? Barb won't even look at me.

- What do I have to do? - It's not gonna be over for you

until Benny's home from Lois's and she's tucked him safely in his b.

The money was wired Monday

by Western union to don dona.

Up front?

Frank, don dona is

the bird kingpin for all of Mexico.

A quick in, quick out,

no one knows we're here.

Can you believe the size of these shrimp?

Honey, can you go grab me some extra napkins

in case I get the trots?

Frank, I like this boy.

He's good. He's strong.

He's got our best traits.

He needs a little more structure and discipline, that's all.

- Fathering. - And mothering.

That was dad.

I told him that you sprained your ankle,

that I have to stay until you can walk again.

Why don't you just tell him that you're tasting the world?

Pfft! You know?

You're moving on.

I need everything to be in order before I do.

I don't want anything to mess it up.

In one week's time, you'll have the dough

to do whatever you want in life.

How do you like Mexico so far?

It's a blast. I love getting out of Sandy.

Wait till you taste that shrimp cocktail.

You can't get shrimp like this in the States.

* oh, I've got a broken foot *

* and I'm eating jumbo shrimp *

* I've cut out the middleman *

my topic is "independence and autonomy:

Choices for women."

I'm not a businesswoman.

I am a working mother.

And while I've struggled to make this my life,

I don't think I've ever wanted to "have it all."

I've just wanted to be happy.

Don't you think it's strange

that men own businesses and have families,

but they're not accused of wanting to have it all?

I'm not a feminist or anything,

but I don't think that doing something

that makes us feel less dependent on others

and increases our self-respect

could possibly be bad for society.

And I think it's really important

that women stick together and help each other.

Believe me, it's something I try to live every day of my life.

Hi, it's me.

Where are you?

You were supposed to call me at 9:00.

I have a very special surprise for you...

something I think you will like very much.

Call me as soon as you get this.

Three of the advisors had me meet with them this morning

and asked me to meet with you.

I have to ask you, Dale:
