* In "Back to Work", Cheyenne (while still on leave) comes in to buy groceries and share pictures of baby Harmonica. The usual antics prevent her from sharing the pictures much, which isn't too bad, but does make her feel like her coworkers haven't missed her. The real bad part starts when she tries to sneak her stuff through a register in order to skip the line and is too meek to walk away when other customers starting having her cash them out as well. She tries to sing to her daughter over her cell, but a customer snaps at her to hang up and in a panic she accidentally packs her phone in his bag. By the end of the episode she can still be seen stuck at the register, and hasn't once been noticed by any of her colleagues.
