1.15 "Ruskie Business"

Aired Feb 22, 2005

Summary

Love is in the air, everywhere V looks around
Making her despair, Meg has Duncan on rebound
And to stand there and watch would be ghoulish
She runs to the car and cries
But Leo is there with a wide grin
And she melts when she looks in his eyes.

Love is in the air, for the Russian and her squeeze
He has little hair, from his life he's tried to flee
But the truth is that she's just scheming
To find him so he can be slain
By the mobsters whose father he turned in
Until Keith puts an end to their game.

Love is in the air, in the searching by the son
Feelings he does bare, when that search is sadly done
And he breaks down in grief and confusion
Pain that she already knew
Her own mother she's found sunk in sloe gin
In a Barstow bar and Wiedman too.

Love is in the air.
