John and Lorraine found a funeral bill for Conchetta and they realize she's dead. The, Mr. Pignati got really upset because Bobo, his beloved Chimpanzee, wouldn't eat what he fed him. Mr. Pignanti also realized that Bobo was getting old, and that he might die soon. The subject of Bobo made Mr. Pignati start talking about his wife, and the great food they used to have. When Mr. Pignati found his charge card (the card he uses so he doesn't have to pay up front for what he buys), he decided to take Lorraine and John to a department store. Mr. Pignati was being very generous and told John and Lorraine to buy what ever they wanted. Lorraine felt kind of bad, but John was taking whatever he wanted. Then the stumbled upon some rollerskateds, and Mr. Pignati really wanted to buy them. Lorraine was telling him not to waste his money, but then John told her that he was just charging it. They all bought the rollerskates, and wore them out of the store. When they arrived back at Mr. Pignati's house, they started to talk about Conchetta and Mr. Pignati began to cry. They comforted him by eating the chocolate ants they had bought(charged) at the department store. Then, they all started laughing and it became a big game. They were all chasing each other, and then they got the stored rollerskates out of the closet and began running around with those on. Then John ran up the stairs yelling to Mr. Pignati, "Bet you can't get me". Halfway up the stairs, Mr. Pignati collapsed and had a heart attack. He was taken to the hospital and John and Lorraine visited him, saying they were his children. This enlighted Mr. Pignati because he felt like he wasn't as alone. The doctors told Lorraine and John that Mr. Pignati would proabably be coming home saturday, and then Mr. Pignati told Lorraine and John that they could have the house to themselves. After being reassured that Mr. Pignati was okay, and was going to live, John and Lorraine left.
When they got back to the house, Lorraine decided to make spaghetti, which John hates. As she was making it, John dressed up as an actor by putting on a suit, slicking his hair back, and drawing on a mustache. When Lorraine saw that, she told John to cook the spaghetti sauce instead of her, and then she went upstairs. She came down looking like a "movie star" with a dress on, and a feather in her hair. John followed her and was pretending they were deeply in love, and then he leaned in and kissed her. This was the first time they had ever kissed.
Ever since the kiss, John started acting weird around Lorriane. Lorraine thought it was all because of the kiss, and that he just started thinking about their relationship.
John decided that he wanted to have a "small get together" and Mr. Pignati's house. He invited some people, but most of those people ended up inviting more people, so it wasn't really small anymore. John made sure there was beer and wine for every one. He mostly invited his close friends, but not Norton, after the incident at the cemetery. At the cemetary, Norton had asked John if there was anything good to steal at Mr. Pignati's house. This really aggravated John, since Mr. Pignati's such a nice man.
But Norton showed up anyway. He was mad at John, for not inviting him, and John thought he was going to be destructive, but he was just standing there. After Norton said something that had set John off, they started fighting. But then John fell and walked away. The Norton did too. About 10 minutes later, John was wondering where he had gone, and he was trying to find him. When he did, he say that Norton had destroyed some of Mr. Pignati's pigs, and is continuing to destroy them. Then John gets very mad. He starts yelling and punching Norton, and then they notice a taxi outside. Lorraine an dJohn's first thought was that it was Mr. Pignati, but this was on Friday, and they thought he was coming home Staurday. But, sure enough it was, and he walked in, without a smile.
