Tony tries to persuade her to have a private family talk with Wendy instead, but Janet demands public humiliation to shock them. A nervous Wendy does her best to get out of the house, while Janet feigns complete innocence with an act of airy cheerfulness. After Wendy leaves, Janet works out where she might go. Predictably, Wendy and Kip secretly meet at their favorite juke joint. They're both paranoid about Janet: what she knows and what she intends to do about it. At that moment, an icy Janet strolls in and greets the stunned two as "a couple of brats caught smoking cornsilk in the cellar." Wendy snidely remarks it's typical of Janet, always snooping. Janet volleys her charge with one against them for hiding and lying. She coldly asks what Kip's intentions are toward Wendy, but Wendy chuckles. Janet sounds like her old man now, and Wendy won't have Kip put on the spot. Janet observes that Wendy seems to do the talking for Kip. That does it. Angered, Kip's temper flares. He launches a verbal assault on Janet, and they attack one another with years of personal history. Kip finishes his peace by saying he's glad everything is out in the open. He and Wendy have nothing to be ashamed of, and besides, they were driven to it by Janet's filthy suspicions. Janet suddenly swoons. She doesn't feel at all well. She rushes out for air, leaving Wendy feeling victorious over Kip's deflation of her mother. Back at the Porter home, Janet admits to Tony that she's angry with herself for giving up halfway through the fight, but she had to stop. She was sick, just like she was early that morning.

She thinks it will be smooth sailing now that Janet could be distracted by pregnancy but does worry about Kip's vagueness about declaring his love for her.

She realizes that whatever it was, she has to wait for Kip to make the next move. She can't push him. Back at home, Wendy congratulates her parents on the possibility of a new baby, then wonders if she'll be punished for her deceptions. Tony promises she won't -on one condition.

He needs to have it out with his son, make him face reality. Arthur confronts Kip, wanting to know if he really intends to take a child bride into sophisticated, adult, intellectual circles as he builds his career.

Tony had no choice but to accept Kip's declarations of love. He returns and informs Janet, who becomes infuriated. She rails at him for now making her the villain of the piece through his decision to side against her with Kip. Tony doesn't think that's the case at all.
