In this episode of “Swingtown,” Susan and Bruce were preparing for their annual weekend trip to a family cabin with Roger and Janet. However Roger, knowing what Susan and Bruce had done with the Deckers, didn’t want to go and made Janet cancel. He claimed he wasn’t feeling well.

Susan and Bruce ended up inviting Trina and Tom at the last minute, and they accepted. Of course Janet soon saw Roger wasn’t feeling as bad as he had claimed, and she decided they should go to the cabin after all. They arrived just as the other four were about to take a group shower after swimming in the lake!

Janet and Roger decided to leave, but Susan insisted everyone stay, they’d make it work. Trina and Janet continued firing shots at each other as the night went on, and Susan noticed Roger was distant. Bruce finally told her that he had told Roger what they had done. She realized she had to talk to him. Susan served the brownies, which Trina laced with pot. Determined to show the Decker’s up, Janet had a pot brownie!

Roger and Susan had a talk and Susan tried to assure him they hadn’t changed. Susan says she was just trying to find what made her happy. When she asked if he was happy, he said “mostly.” Meanwhile Bruce, Trina, Tom and Janet ended up playing “Twister” and Janet was queen of the game. She then decided everyone should go skinny dipping, which they did.

The next morning Janet didn’t seem to remember much of what happened the night before. Per Susan’s suggestion, the guys slept in one room while the girls slept in the other. Both Janet and Roger as well as Tom and Trina decided to hit the road. However Roger and Janet stayed an extra day when Tom and Trina really had to go, because of Tom’s new job.

Back at home, BJ hung out with Ricky and Samantha. They broke into the Decker’s place to play in the pool, and Ricky got drunk on gin. Samantha began to tell BJ about the Deckers and what they do, but stopped.

Meanwhile Laurie made dinner for her teacher, who came over to talk to her about how they couldn’t be doing this. She felt he would only be her teacher for one more week. She told him the two of them worked together, and he knew that, which is why he had to go. After he left we saw Laurie’s old boyfriend watching from his car . . . realizing something is up.

I loved Janet in this episode, how she finally let loose and started having some fun. Unfortunately it was thanks to a pot brownie, and she doesn’t seem to remember anything she did the night before. I also can’t believe Janet hasn’t figured out what is going on between the Deckers and the Millers. She must know, she is just in denial and if she doesn’t say it then it’s not true. Meanwhile Roger I thought was about to burst and tell Susan he’s in love with her and been in love with her for years, but he didn’t. I think when Roger finally admits he loves Susan that Janet is going to go insane and have some crazy affair!

Over to the kids, the son and his two friends are still boring me to tears. The daughter’s story has gotten a bit interesting now that her old boyfriend has found out about her and the teach. I think he’ll either turn the teacher in to get him fired or attack him. Something about that ex irks me, he doesn’t seem very sane.
