It's what, legal in Utah for three people to get married?
Despite being illegal, in Utah today, those living in polygamist families number about 40,000 people(about 1.4 percent of the population). Polygamists are difficult to prosecute because many only seek marriage licenses for their first marriage, while the other marriages are secretly conducted in private ceremonies. Thereafter, secondary wives attempt to be seen in public as single women with children.

is she really turning into Elaine
Is she talking about Elaine from the TV show Seinfeld?

More likely worried about turning into her mother, Elaine Tarnow. Oddly enough, Seinfeld, which closed up shop in 1998 but was running damned near every hour of the day in syndication in 2000, does not feature as either a tubal or a New York Jewish reference in the novel. It's all about the Friends.

as Larry Talbot into the Wolf Man
Larry Talbot was the main character of the 1941 film The Wolf Man.
