In Borderline, the high stakes finally meet witty execution in a more sustainable balance.

Its why they shouldnt be doing something like this, and why theyhaveto do this.

Praise be to well,Ruby, who really wants Stan to stop talking about their miracle in public.

Rubys eyes bug out of her head as this Sheila gives a lingering hug to her very grateful husband.

Annie tells her its not like they have a choice, and Beth responds, Theres always a choice.

Of course, its not a choice any of them are willing to make.

Still think its drugs?

Beth asks as they pull up to a craft store.

Worse scrapbooking, says Annie, correctly.

Andtheyreabout to get sent to the search-and-seizure lane to double-check the ten boxes of crafting supplies in their trunk.

The ladies pull up to a comically shady warehouse to make the drop to Rio.

Hes busy running his operation, not interested in giving her reassurance that theyre off the hook.

Were good, he tells her.

Oh, but they aresonot.

How awful then, that it leads to Annie realizing shes late for her home-visit.

Thats when both women see that Sadie has cut her finger badly, and Annie had no idea.

Theres always a choice, Beth tells him.

You know the tradition is Jordans over a phone line, right?

Rio teases her later, after he receives her signature message.

I dont think Im wrong to say that theres chemistry between these two.

So, whatd you want to talk to me about?

Beth opens her mouth cut to credits.

Because this womanonlyshops organic.

I dont know, Im just saying words Ive heard before!

Annie, talking about wiping the Jeeps hard drive.
