| Billie grows very annoyed of Earl's karmic list and forces Earl to decide between the list or Billie. When Earl chooses the list, Billie starts to undo all his good deeds by hurting the residents of Camden County. Earl focuses on helping the Camdenites, an Amish-like sect, by convincing one of the young women, Greta, to return to the sect.

She briefly returns to make amends with Earl, grant him a divorce, and in an act of good karma, give him the remainder of her insurance settlement. |
