Previously on Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage...

And it's gonna be a beautiful day for it.

I've predicted sunny skies all through Monday.

Guess we've got Him to thank for that.

Or Her.

Oh, I-I meant God.

No, I know, so did I.

So God's a woman?

Come on, it's not that big a deal.

It is a huge deal.

Maybe we should pull you off the schedule

for a while,

- let everybody cool down. - No, no, no,

don't take me off the air.

I can fix this. I'll just apologize.

Okay, you know what?

I can't do this.

If that's what it takes

for me to keep this job, then

I quit.

Hey, y'all, it's Fred Fagenbacher

from Fagenbacher Auto, where we believe in three things:

God, Texas and quality tires.

We've been keeping your family

on the road safe and in our prayers

for over 30 years, and with our fleet

of tow trucks, if you break down,

we can pick you up 24/7.

We got the best deals on brakes, tires and alignments.

So come on down to Fagenbacher Auto,

where the only thing we put above our customers is

the Lord Himself.

"Himself"? Really?

We don't know that's a shot at you.

I do, but draw your own conclusions.

Forget Fagenbacher, he's a jerk.

You haven't been on TV in weeks.

I'm sure people probably don't even remember you.

I know you mean well,

but shut up.

That ain't true, a lot of people are still

talking about what you said.

Yeah, just the other day,

our mailman brought it up.

What'd he say?

Uh, you know, it's not important.

What did he say?

He wanted to know if you were...

still in league with Satan.

I'm going to bed.

Give my best to the devil.

Saw your commercial, Fred.

Ooh, did you like it?

Yeah, it was expensive,

but business has been good.

Praise God.

Oh, give it a rest.

Ooh, cranky.

Has your lady God been holding out on you?

Ain't that just like a woman?

Stop running that ad and leave Mandy alone.

Oh, it ain't my fault your wife put her foot in her mouth.

But you know, it's funny,

back in high school, her mom used to

put her foot in my mouth.

- Dude! - What'd he say?

Tell him.

You are not a nice man.

Way to let him have it.

Don't worry, business will bounce back.

Course it will.

You must've had

some lean times, what did you do?

Sold the store to you.

Hey. You're home early.

There wasn't much to do.

Really? Georgie said y'all been busy.

Yeah, Georgie lied.

Why?

Well, he didn't want you to feel bad.

About what?

About saying that God's a woman

and ruining their business.

But again, don't feel bad.

Hang on. That's crazy.

People aren't buying tires because of what I said?

When you were a teenager,

how many girls did you stop talking to

'cause of something they said?

It wasn't always what they said.

Sometimes it was what they wore.

You just need to know your husband's a good guy.

Well, if you love him so much, why don't you marry him?

He didn't get me pregnant.

I'm online.

What you doing?

I'm on a message board where people buy and sell

used instruments.

People buy stuff on the computer?

Why would anybody want to do that?

It's amazing.

I found someone in Houston selling an old synthesizer.

You're gonna drive all that way

and give money to a stranger you met on the computer?

It's perfectly safe, Mom.

I don't know.

I saw a story like this on Dateline,

where the only thing that got sold was the fella's kidney.

I'll be fine.

What do you know about this person?

Do you even know their name?

Course I do.

Cobra3837.

You are not going alone. Jim!

You're overreacting.

- What's up? - You're going with Connor

to meet his computer friend, Cobra,

and make sure they don't steal his kidney.

Need you to sign these.

Okey dokey.

Hey, Mare,

have you heard anyone

badmouthing me around town?

Of course not. People love you.

I thought so, too.

But today at the coffee shop, this young woman scolded me

for the way I treated Mandy on TV.

Really?

Yes, she said

I was condescending and sexist.

Me. I love women.

My mother is my best friend.

I used to like when Sheldon said that about me.

Now I'm not so sure.

Now, this isn't the first time.

There's been others. A lot of others.

Well, the people who know you know it's not true.

My wife is one of the others.

Oh.

You know, if you

want to show everyone how much

you support women, why don't you

let me do the sermon this Sunday?

I know you're trying to lighten the mood,

but this is not the time.

What do you think I should do?

Well, maybe you should reach out to Mandy.

Say you're sorry.

Invite her to church.

Once people see that you two are okay,

this'll all blow over.

Say I'm sorry?

All I did was correct her when she said God was a woman.

You also called her ignorant on TV.

Well, I suppose I could be the bigger man.

Good for you.

I did come down a little hard.

Sometimes I forget

how forceful we alpha males can be.

Alpha male.

Leader of the pack.

Head honcho.

Right.

- Top banana. - I get it.

You should've told me.

I didn't want you to feel bad.

For putting you out of business?

We ain't out of business.

And if those customers got a problem with you,

I don't want 'em anyways.

Mm. Thanks.

Supporting my wife is more important than running

a successful business,

or food or shoes for our baby girl.

Thanks again.

Good news is we live rent-free with your parents

so we can just grow old

and die right here.

Oh, God.

When you think about it,

your parents'll probably go before us.

Then the whole place is ours.

Though we should stay in this room.

I don't want to have sex

on some dead people's bed.

Cobra seemed nice.

Yeah.

For a guy with a keyboard, I expected more fingers.

So, what's special about this thing?

You know Frank Zappa's album The Grand Wazoo?

I don't even know if you're making that up.

This is the same kind of synthesizer they played.

Oh, okay.

It's got a very unique sound.

Can't wait to hear it.

Might be a while. It's broken.

We drove all this way

to buy a thing that don't work?

You bought a broken Mustang.

Okay, well, that's different.

Vintage cars are an investment. And they're cool.

The Grand Wazoo, Dad.

How much money did you waste on this?

400 bucks.

400 bucks?

How do you even have 400 bucks?

My allowance.

From when you were nine?

No, from now.

Hold on.

Your mother still gives you an allowance?

Not always. I have to do my chores.

How much does she give you?

Just enough for gas, food

and the occasional $400 synthesizer.

That doesn't work.

Sadly, no.

Got a minute?

Mandy.

Uh, of course. Uh, come on in.

I've been praying about you a lot lately.

Well, that's nice.

Unless you've been asking God to smite me.

No, God's a lover, not a smiter.

Ooh, that should be on a T-shirt.

Sure.

Anyway, I... I'm glad you're here.

I was hoping we could clear the air.

Me, too, which is why I wanted to apologize.

Really?

Yes, I shouldn't have walked off in the middle of our interview.

It was rude and unprofessional, and...

I'm sorry.

For the way you treated me?

Yes.

Well, I appreciate that, and

I would like to say...

that I accept your apology.

- Well, thank you so much. - Wouldn't be much

of a pastor if I couldn't forgive people

when they've wronged me.

And if it's not too much trouble,

maybe you could let people know they don't need to stay away

from Georgie's business.

I'll do you one better.

How about you, Georgie and baby CeeCee

come to church this Sunday?

You could even sit next to my wife.

Really?

Oh, yeah, that'll send a message.

Mandy, I didn't know you were here.

Oh, yeah, I just

stopped by to chat with Pastor Jeff.

We were just finishing up. Great seeing you.

I am so glad you two made up.

People have been so mean to him.

Mean about what?

Doesn't matter. I have a very thick skin.

About you losing your job and the way he treated you.

Really?

A few people may have said something.

Including your wife.

So people are mad at you,

and you sat there and let me beg for forgiveness?

Pastor Jeff.

You said you were gonna apologize.

I was, but then she did,

and I didn't want to make it all about me.

So my family coming to church

is about making you look better?

Again, let's not make this about me.

McAllister?

Ain't that the name of that crazy weather girl?

Huh.

I guess it is. I don't know...

No relation.

Actually, McAllister is the guy we bought the place from.

Been meaning to change it.

I kinda like Tires "R" Us.

You know, it's like, it's like Toys "R" Us,

but-but you know, for tires.

You were looking for a set

- of 24-inch radials? - Mm-hmm.

You are not gonna believe what Pastor Jeff tried to pull.

Excuse me, ma'am,

we'll be with you in a moment.

Yeah, I'm not talking to you, I'm talking to my husband.

Fagenbacher's a mile down the road,

across the street from the Dairy Queen.

Tell him I said hey.

Why do you hate us?

- What's going on? - So, I went groveling

to Pastor Jeff to get him to apologize.

- Great. - Not great.

Turns out he's the one that should be groveling to me.

- For what? - People blame him

for me losing my job. Even his wife is mad about it.

So what you're saying is, is we got leverage.

What I'm saying is, he owes me an apology.

Okay, okay, you want an apology,

I want customers, he wants people to see y'all made up.

This is what we in the business sector call a negotiation.

It's what everyone calls a negotiation.

She don't know that.

Yes, I do.

- Hey. How'd it go? - Oh, great.

The instrument's broken, Cobra has seven fingers,

and you give Connor an allowance?

Really, seven fingers?

Audrey, what the hell?

He needs money.

Well, he could find a job.

He's been working hard on his music.

I like to think that's his job.

I like to think I got a full head of hair.

That don't make it true.

He's not cut out for a regular job.

He's an artist.

He's a shapeless blob of clay.

I am not gonna stop supporting our son.

Well, I'm drawing the line. No more allowance.

I'm sorry,

you're "drawing the line"?

That's right, I'm putting my foot down.

Ooh, I hope it's not

on the line you drew.

I'm serious.

Look at my face. You think I'm fooling around?

You want to play it that way, fine.

No sex for you tonight.

Well, I'm so glad that we could all come together

in the spirit of Christian forgiveness

to work out our differences.

Mm-hmm. I already apologized once. It's his turn.

You're right. I am sorry.

And is that for the way you treated me on air

or for trying to use me to make yourself look better?

Oh, like you weren't trying to use me

to put your little episode behind you?

Okay, okay.

Let's remember why we're here:

To use each other.

And Christian forgiveness.

Sure, whatever.

The point is, we all need something

and we're all gonna have to give a little to get it.

What do you mean?

Well, Pastor Jeff would like us

to come back to church so people can see

that he and Mandy made up.

And for my wife to see it.

I cannot sleep on the couch anymore.

My back is all cattywampus.

So what do I get?

The bounty of Christ's love.

It's okay, that's just what we call an opening offer.

But I think what we were looking for

is something a little more concrete.

Like what?

Like encourage the congregation

to come back to the store.

I can do that.

Oh, and I want a contract

to do all the tires for the church vans again.

Hold on, if Pastor Jeff's doing that,

then you gotta guarantee us three Sundays a month of church.

Ugh. Two.

Fine. But when CeeCee's old enough,

Sunday school.

Baptist Sunday school.

Your mom is not gonna like that.

Yeah, true.

We can make that work.

But I want my job back.

I can't get you your job back.

- You can try. - How?

Well, sic the congregation on them,

write letters, threaten them with the wrath of God,

figure it out.

I'm not a miracle worker.

But I do know one.

I'll see what I can do.

Then we got a deal?

Two Sundays, front row,

sit next to my wife and tell her we're good.

See you at church.

And you better stay awake.

Too late, deal's closed.

Hey, there.

What is that?

It's a new TV.

Really ties the room together, don't you think?

It's a monstrosity.

Yeah, we might have to slide the couch back a few feet.

So you just went out

and bought a new TV without talking to me?

You do whatever you want with our money.

I thought I would, too.

That thing is not staying in my house.

Oh, I'm sorry,

are you putting your foot down?

Really?

You want to start a spending war?

'Cause I have always wanted to own a horse.

Great, we can go riding together.

You on your horse and me on my new Harley.

You are not getting a motorcycle.

Well, you're not getting a horse.

That thing's going back to the store.

Have at it. Lift with your legs.

Hey, y'all,

it's Fred Fagenbacher from

Fagenbacher Auto, where we believe...

Oh, he looks good on a big screen.

Check out all that hair.

Fine, I'll bring it back.

Let's all welcome Georgie, Mandy and baby CeeCee,

who are excited to be full-time members of our flock.

And just remember,

if anyone has any tire needs,

McAllister Auto's the place to go.

Say "Jesus loves you" for 10% off.

And of course, let's keep Mandy in our prayers

as she searches for another job. Now let's all

bow our heads.

Our Father in Heaven...

Prayers?

He gets us at church, you get your business

and I get stupid prayers?

Don't knock prayers, Bon Jovi's been living on 'em for years.

I wanted pitchforks, I wanted torches,

I wanted them to go after the station

the way that they went after me.

You wanted to help the business and you did.

That's gotta feel pretty good, right?

Yeah, yeah, I'm going to heaven. Big whoop.

You might not believe in it,

but I prayed for a hot wife. Boom.

I prayed for a healthy daughter. Boom.

All that's left is having my own nacho cheese dispenser

like at the movies.

We are never getting that.

Excuse me, but this is between me and God.

Your father and I have talked

and we've agreed to continue giving you an allowance.

- Great. - There's conditions.

We're considering making

music your job

and the money is your payment,

but you gotta work at it every day.

Oh. No, thank you.

Come again?

Not interested.

We're giving you money

to pursue your dream.

No, you're turning it into work.

That you get paid for.

I don't make music for money.

I do it when I'm inspired,

when I have something important to say.

You wrote a song about a salamander.

And I couldn't have done that if I was working for the man.

- Unbelievable. - No.

If that's the way you feel, we respect it.

No, we don't.

- No more allowance. - Jim.

I'm serious. End of discussion.

I don't mean to cause problems between you two.

Maybe I should go find a job.

And let him win? Don't you dare!

Okay. Thank you so much.

Bye-bye.

You are not gonna believe this.

That was Channel Nine. They just offered me a job.

They don't care about the stuff you said?

No, they like it.

They think the controversy will be good for ratings.

Well, that's amazing.

But you're not gonna say more crazy stuff, right?

Who knows? I'm a loose cannon,

that's what they love about me.

Huh.

Well, looks like the power of prayer really worked.

That's not what happened.

Nothing was going on,

everyone prayed for you, suddenly the phone rings.

Yeah, I sent them my tape weeks ago.

And they just called now.

That's a coincidence.

Sure. Or an act of God.

You think, of all the prayers in the world,

God decided to answer this one?

He helped the Cowboys win the Super Bowl,

why not you being a weather girl?

Okay, he didn't help them win,

they're also good at their job.

I don't know, they sure thanked Him a lot.

Maybe you should, too.

Fine.

Thank you for making me good at my job.

- Amen. - Amen.

And I just want to thank all you prayer warriors out there.

Thanks to your hard work...

and, of course, God's open ears...

Mrs. Peoples' cat returned home,

the high school chess team won

the division, and of course, Mandy McAllister

got a new job as a weather girl on Channel Nine.

Praise the Lord, we did it!

God is good.

He sure is.

Hallelujah!
