During the family meal he keeps asking people to guess things like the number of employees he had at his button factory and the number of heart attack hes suffered. He gets a phone call which is when the family find out that he is married to an 92 year old and him and Eleanor are having an affair. He then forces Adam and Jonny to come with him to buy a replacement part for his car which he buys along side a box of comdom and forces Adam to pay for them. When he gets back to the house he decides that he needs a rest and goes upstairs and lies on the bed without asking.
