When Anita got to the Suburban, she made Howard stand by the door until she had emptied the paper bag of supplies and laid it on the black leather of the passenger side front seat to protect it from his wet underwear. Then she hoisted him up and firmly buckled him in place before going around the van and getting in herself. As they drove away, she tried to lighten his mood by joking with him, saying, “You know Howard, if you’re going to ride the merry-go-round again, I’ll have to get you some diapers.”
