Her disposition deteriorates, however, when she finds a letter from Charity saying that she has gone to live with Hugh.
Chastity burns the letter and starts drinking heavily.
Meanwhile across town, Guy Laflamme has received a similar letter from Hugh Rection. Chastity makes love to this woman in a hotel room, while Guy follows her advice by having sex with a number of different men in the back of a van. Unbeknownst to all the principles, they're being videotaped. The next day Pearl confronts a very hungover Chastity with the videotape of her and her husband's sexual exploits. She demands that Chastity surrender Thunder or she'll take the tape to a judge.
