History[]

Season 2[]

In 1973, Amy had gotten dumped by her boyfriend a few weeks before Valentine's Day. Feeling that she had something to prove, she spotted Hank, who happened to be walking in her direction. She pretended to have her bell-bottom jeans tangled in her bike's chain and pled for help. As Hank untangled her jeans, Amy claimed that her boyfriend had been killed in the Vietnam War in a ploy to win Hank's sympathy. After he managed to untangle her and helped her up, she managed to kiss him despite his resistance, after which he ran away from her. As a result of this kiss, Hank contracted mono and was bedridden for two weeks.

Twenty years later, Hank's wife Peggy is asked to substitute for the recordkeeper at Arlen High School. While there, her friend Becky tells Peggy that Hank had mono. Prior to this, Hank had told Peggy that he had sprained his back during those two weeks. Not being able to let it go, Peggy asks Becky if anyone else in Hank's senior class was sick during those two weeks, after which Becky tells her about Amy. Peggy tracks her down and goes to visit her at her current place of employment, Pink & White, where she works as an Ostrich Meat sampler. In the cold storage room, Amy tells Peggy what happened between her and Hank, after which she gives Peggy a coupon that will take 30 cents off her next Ostrich purchase. Peggy at first seems relaxed, only to punch a large hunk of meat hanging nearby. Amy backs off, thinking that Peggy will punch her next, only for Peggy to clean her hands on the butcher apron that Amy is wearing and leaves.
