'Mom' Recap: Episode 12: 'Kitty Litter and a Class A Felony'

Bonnie is trying to deal with Alvins death on Mom starring Anna Faris and Allison Janney.

Christy comes home to find Alvins ex, removing items from his apartment while Bonnie is telling her that she just can't steal the stuff. Lorraine reminds Bonnie that he left everything to her so therefore the belongings are hers. Bonnie brings up the second will that Alvin told her about. Lorraine discloses that the will was never signed.

Christy speaks to her friend Steve who's a lawyer about it and he advises the ladies that it will cost a 100 grand to overturn any of this into their favor.

Christy visits Lorraine to apologize for Bonnies actions and to try to appeal to her heart about this second will if for at least her children. While she is talking to Lorraine, she finds out that Lorraine had Alvin cremated and he is in the urn on the mantle. Lorraine understands Christys plight, but truly does not care.

Bonnie find out that Alvins cremated and she gets emotional because she feels that if Alvin was in a grave then she could visit him, but now that he is in an urn with Lorraine then she can’t ever visit him. Before Christy can blink, Bonnie leaves.

Bonnie returns that night with the ashes. Bonnie broke into the house and switched out the ashes for grape nut cereal. She tells Christy that Lorraine may have his belongings, but now she has Alvin. She places the ashes in a thermos. Christy tries to get Bonnie to understand what she is doing is wrong, but she fails.

Christy later switches out the ashes for kitty litter. She brings the ashes to her brothers. She does not want Lorraine to know what happened. She explains that to the boys telling them she is returning the ashes because its the right thing to do.

By the end of the show, her brothers come to her door. Bonnie hides the ashes behind her. The boys come in and give Christy a check. Douglas who claims he is not always a douche, went through the books at the garage. He found that Christy worked for them for two years without pay. The boys don't want Lorraine to know, but they know Alvin wanted Christy to have it.

While Christy is showing her appreciation, Bonnie feels bad and offers the ashes back explaining what she did. Even though the boys already know, they go along with it so Bonnie doesn’t find out that Christy switched out the ashes.

The show ends with Bonnie taking a group selfie of them and sending it to Lorraines phone. Then when shes asleep she dreams she's on an island with Alvin. Its like a scene from Casablanca. Lorraine shows up on the beach screaming how Alvin is hers. All of a sudden, a train comes and smothers her. Bonnie rolls over in bed smiling.
