The end and beginning of this arc!

There won't be much Carmine or Shirley in this arc.

Laverne Kosnoski was bigger than a house.

Well, that was how she felt; six months along, and bigger than a balloon. Now that she was finally over her morning sickness, she could at least sit around for Leather's recording sessions.

Lenny, she noticed, was getting better with his guitar. More confident, after logging in months of touring. Leather sat, mixing the tracks as she went along, as Laverne watched them all in silence.

As the last riff sounded, Laverne waited for Leather to cut the tape before applauding. Lenny dove out of the booth, and hugged her tightly, customarily.

"That's enough for an EP." Leather said, laying her feet on the control panel. "We ain't gonna record seriously until we get to Milwaukee."

"Milwaukee?" Laverne asked. After all of this traveling, they were going back to where they started.

"Yep. Then I'm stayin' home." Leather watched Lenny's face. "Ya know I wanna bring you guys with me."

Laverne sighed. "I'm gettin' tired of goin' all over the place, Leather."

"I'm tired, too. We're gonna stick around Milwaukee for as long as possible. For at least as long as you need to wait for the baby."

Lenny sat down beside her, "You wanna go for it?"

"Only if it means we live there." She squeezed his hand. "Len, the baby needs a real home. I wanna wake up in the same place every day, ya know?"

He nodded. "Yeah; one nursery, one car...New York ain't our place, and California's just "

"So you're commin' with me?"

"Yeah." Lenny squeezed his wife's hand. "We're goin' with you."

Squiggy stared at the menu. "Ya think Uncle Chan's is hirin'?"

Rhonda frowned over her menu. "Squiggles, we're okay, money-wise, right?"

"Sure, my sugarlump."

"Then why are you thinking about working at some icky restaurant?"

Squiggy shrugged. "Have ya never been without the sound of a deep fryer? The little ping of a heated oven goin' off?"

"No. Sounds like you miss it."

He shrugged. "Eh. We're havin' our first night away from Moth. Whatt'm I doin', thinkin' about food?"

"You're just hungry, Squiggles." She smiled. "Did I tell you that I was offered a part today?"

And he listened to her talk about that role. But the roll he had on his mind was of the doughy variety.
