SIX FEET UNDER: TEARS, BONES AND DESIRE (TV)
Summary
One in this series about the Fisher clan, a loving -- if dysfunctional -- family struggling to maintain a sense of normalcy in the face of the stressful day-to-day operations of the eccentric family business, a funeral home in Los Angeles. In this episode, Daddy, the leader of The People, a cult of polygamous Mennonites, dies, and Fisher and Diaz preside over a most unusual funeral as Daddy's many wives and children overtake the funeral home, making miniature brooms, consuming tons of cheese, and spreading lice. David attends "Gay Paintball Day" with Keith where the two meet each other's friends, take out their aggressions on each other, and meet Sarge, a burly, gung-ho paintball enthusiast whom they befriend and eventually end up with in a most unlikely threesome. Claire runs an errand for Olivier in Azusa while Russell stays home with the art professor. A curious Lisa -- under an assumed name -- gets a massage from Brenda. Ruth inadvertantly kisses Arthur twice, creating a weird tension between the two of them. Rico continues to be vexed by Vanessa's depression problems.
