The producers describe the entire episode in two months of information, starting with Candy and Allan’s affair.
‘Candy’ episode 3 recap on Hulu: Candy Montgomery and Allan Gore begin their affair
Episode 3 of Candy on Hulu begins with a poster of the pros and cons of Candy and Allan’s affair. Although Allan is still on the fence about it, he finally agrees when he finds out that Betty is pregnant again. Candy prepares a meal after her husband, Pat (Timothy Simons), leaves for work and brings it to hotel room 204 in old-fashioned Tupperware containers. Allan hesitates when he arrives but enters to find Candy in a red nightgown. He sees the meal she has prepared and immediately sits down to eat. He complains about Betty as they share a meal and finally makes a move.
Later, Candy tells her friend Sherry about her seedy motel in Dallas. She tells him that Allan has the “most beautiful penis she’s ever seen”.
Two months later, Candy sits down next to Betty to talk about how close their daughters are. Betty complains about her weight and then reveals that she is pregnant. Betty worries that Allan will act the same as last time – he’s not interested in her sexually. Candy gives him advice on their sex life (even if Candy sleeps with Allan). Then she insists on having Betty’s baby shower.

Allan and Betty Gore attend a marriage meeting in episode 3 of “Candy”
In Episode 3, after you guessed it, another two months later, Betty gets angry with Reverend Ron (Jordan Patrick) in a budget meeting. Sensing the tension, Sandra “Sandy” Lockett (Sharon Conley) and Jeffrey Lockett (Russell Thomas) suggest that Betty go to “a marriage meeting” with Allan.
It’s no wonder Betty isn’t happy in her marriage. The producers cut to another scene of Allan and Candy making love in a hotel room, but Candy doesn’t seem thrilled. Candy reveals that she has feelings for Allan, so this must be the last time they have sex. However, he tells Candy that “it can’t be the last time”. He doesn’t care if he’s late to get back to work.

Meanwhile, back at home, Betty tells Allan that she wants to do a “marriage encounter”, and he agrees. They go on a weekend retreat where Mary Lou Barton (Liz McGeever) and Jack coach them in their relationship. Betty asks Allan what he is doing sexually since he is not interested in her during her pregnancy. The counselor insists that they make a full commitment not to blame each other. Does Allan reveal he’s having an affair? We don’t know, but Betty looks angry when they pick up Christina (Antonella Rose) from Candy’s after the weekend getaway.
Candy Montgomery throws Betty Gore’s baby shower
Later in Candy Episode 3, Candy reveals to Sherry that she is sleeping with Allan.
“Isn’t that a sideways move?” Sherry asks Candy, implying that Allan isn’t really a trap.
At the baby shower, Betty asks Allan to stay, and then he kisses her. Candy watches. He canceled the last two meetings and she fears that Betty knows about it.
Meanwhile, the ladies watch Betty open presents and talk about her experience with the “marriage encounter.” Betty talks about the “untapped emotion” inside and “forgiveness and acceptance”. However, Candy criticizes the program. Betty insists their marriage never looked better once they revealed their secrets.
Candy asks Allan after the baby shower if he told Betty about it. However, Allan says he didn’t tell Betty. Instead, the only case that came out was Betty’s. He also admits that he believes the “marriage encounter” works. So, he tells her that he wants to end their affair. Allan also thanks Candy for being Betty’s friend.

Then we fast forward three months later into Candy Episode 3. Christina and Betty arrive at Candy’s for a sleepover. Betty asks if she did something wrong, but Candy insists she’s been very busy. Betty hasn’t heard from Candy since the baby.
Sherry picks up Candy for English class, but she brings a party dress and makeup. They head to a bar instead, and Candy is dancing at the jukebox. Her friend, Sherry, stays at the bar.
At Betty’s, they receive a “love ring” before having sex, missionary style. The baby wakes up in the middle of the night and is the same age as Friday the 13th. After feeding the baby, Betty sees a plate of spaghetti and puts it back in the fridge. The camera zooms in on the refrigerator door, and when it zooms out, there’s blood everywhere, and the viewers see Candy’s ax and glasses. That’s all viewers get from the murder scene in Candy Episode 3.
Candy premiered Sunday, May 9 on Hulu, with the first episode only releasing at 9:00 p.m. PT/midnight ET. The remaining four Candy episodes drop daily after the premiere, with the finale dropping on Friday, May 13.
