I love this show and I watch it every week. But I'm a little confused about the Preacher. They keep referring to his wife. I think on episode 6 he went into the Lawyer's office and asked her do his divorce. He had papers signed by him and her already. She explained to him that it has to be signed in front of a Notary Public. He called his wife in and Andy questioned her and they proceeded to sign the divorce papers and the notary public notarized them and she said she would file them with the court. And she told her friend Karen that he was divorced. Now what happened after that does not make any sense to me. She never said she did not file the papers but they keep saying he married and his wife. I'm I the only one noticed this? Tyler Perry or someone please explain this.
