The bombings continue, and the Coral Gables Jewish Center is destroyed. While enjoying some peaches from Georgia, the McMahon family hear a loud commotion. Thinking the noise is a wedding party, they run outdoors to take a look. Instead, they see a shiny black Chrysler New Yorker vehicle racing away, pursued by truckloads of Klansmen.

Later, Luther comes in to tell the McMahons the gossip about the black vehicle. The Klansmen thought they were pursuing Thurgood Marshall, but they were actually following two reporters from New York. Reesa believes that the situation has reached a point where more people will get involved, and Luther reveals all his sources as the singers in his church choir, many of whom work in the homes of Klansmen. 

Reesa goes to Miz Lillian’s beauty salon for her winter permanent wave. She encounters Miz Maggie and Miz Iris, two White women, talking about the bombings and saying that the Black community was getting “uppity.” According to the women, soon the Black people “be wanting” to live near them and to use their toilets. Miz Lillian, also White, comments that it seems like the Klan is responsible for all the trouble. Miz Maggie shouts at Miz Lillian, asking her in shock if she would allow Black customers into her hair salon.
