Plot
In-Depth
Ben and Darlene are still fighting. He moved her desk again. No matter what she says, he has something to say also. This includes making her rewrite a paper that "lacks honesty, truth, integrity, morality, and loyalty". He also says he can say whatever he wants to because he is an excellent multitasker. Darlene considers quitting.

When Beverly returns to Jackie's place, she is immediately confronted about The Lunch Box. Beverly does not approve, blaming it on her daughters. She also says that Becky is an alcoholic. Because of this, Becky is considering changing Young Beverly's name to Young Audrey. Beverly confessed after she encountered a problem using her phone. Instead of entering the other possible password, she declares herself to be incapable of taking care of herself. Beverly told Jackie and Becky that Darlene is now her Power Of Attorney.
