Unfortunately for Martin, Vernon has a big mouth, and now Anita is in on the secret: Martin wants to run for president. The verdict? A hard NO. Martin’s past isn’t just a liability—it’s a full-blown disaster waiting to happen. Bill knows the truth, and let’s face it, Bill is about as trustworthy as a fox guarding a henhouse.
When Anita and Vernon summon Martin to the country club, they don’t hold back. They remind him that his secret isn’t just his burden—it would destroy Smitty and the kids, too. But does Martin listen? Of course not. He lashes out, blaming them for planting this political dream in his head in the first place.
And just when you think the drama couldn’t get thicker, Smitty arrives right on cue, overhearing just enough to realize his husband has been keeping yet another secret. Cue the fireworks.
