How It All Goes Down
- Dominick wakes up from a dream about Thomas, a monkey, and an old woman (at least he's not giving a speech in his underwear).
- Dominick and Joy chat before each heading off to their respective jobs—Joy at a health club, Dominick painting the Roods' house.
- Joy encourages Dominick to call Connie Chung back, and to stop spending his entire waking life caring for his brother. She suggests he get help from Ray, but Dominick doesn't trust Ray because of how he treated Thomas as a kid.
- After Joy leaves, Dominick's mind hasn't changed. He has to take care of Thomas—he "promised Ma" (7.123).
