 Since Jo told Ria she s getting fat, she smuggles in an old gym device, which causes power breakdowns. Pim has invited Patrice, a black student from Suriname (a former Dutch colony in South America) who suddenly became homeless for the night, but is was too late to inform Jeanne, so when she throws Jeff out of the bedroom for refusal to go change her mothers wall-paper he arranges him to scare her out of her wits; since Odilon is even more scared, he launches the theory it s a voodoo problem, which Jeff wants to use to scam his way out of his mother-in-law and Pim to scam Patrice back in.
