* [[Calling the Old Man Out]]:

** Savannah finally chews out her old man in ''Sugar and Spite''. All those years, she and her siblings had to hear the whispers about how her dad was fooling around with another woman, and yet he never divorced his wife - and that's ignoring the fact that he almost never came home. Now that Savannah's fourty-something, he finally does divorce Savannah's mother... and asks Savannah to be the ''maid of honor'' for his marriage to the woman he's had an affair with for decades.
