“Explain herself”? What explanation would Happy or anybody else need that wasn’t already obvious? “Sorry, Happy, but avoiding jail and spending the money I conned from you is at the top of my To Do list at the moment. Byee!”
At least we see Mark working his way towards a polite excuse to go home by bringing up the matter of Gail after talking about the gorillas. Mark knows Happy would rebuff his half-hearted offer to stick around. It’s as good a cue to skidoo as anything. So catfish aside, it looks like on Saturday we’ll either see Mark chugging home in his station wagon or already back at Lost Forest, ready for his next assignment.
