Recap

 
It's the week after the holidays, nerves are frayed, and Adam and Kristina are to get everything organized for the big family road trip to see Grandma Blanche. They're at each other's throats, while Max is cluelessly engrossed in a video game with the volume up full-blast. Why would Zeek want to go on a road trip to see his mother for her birthday when he doesn't even like her? After repeated, ignored requests to turn off the game, Kristina finally shuts it down herself, drawing the wrath of Max. He's been working on that level for days, and now he's lost everything! Max throws a pillow at Kristina and calls her a bitch. Kristina flushes, promising Max that he's punished. When he says, "Yeah, right," she holds onto her guns tighter, and lays down the law: Max will not be going on the family road trip. Across town, Drew stumbles into the cottage, only to hear and see his mom having sex with Mr. Cyr. In shock, Drew turns and runs. Julia gets a last-minute call from work. She's going to have to write a brief while on the road.
