Episode 6 When Blanche and Sophia arrive home, Dorothy catches them in the act. Dorothy: I thought I told you to stay in your bedroom, Ma! Blanche: The poor woman needed some air Dorothy. Dorothy: Stay out of this, Blanche! *to Sophia* When I tell you to stay in your bedroom, I mean stay in your bedroom! Sophia: Is that anyway to speak to your mother Dorothy? I’m 83, not one of your rebellious students. Dorothy: As long as you live in this house, you’ll do what I say. Rose: What exactly does that mean? Dorothy: *sarcastically* It means I’m going to send her to Wentworth Detention Centre, Rose! *Rose looks shocked* Dorothy: From now on Ma, you will be on a curfew. Sophia: A curfew? Dorothy: That means from Sunday to Thursday you will come home at 8:30. On Friday and Saturday you will come home at 9:00. Sophia: Why don’t just send me back to Shady Pines?!? *storms upstairs* Blanche: Nice going Dorothy! Dorothy: Blanche! Blanche: All right! I’m going to bed! *goes upstairs* Rose: I have a story from St Olaf that will change… Dorothy: BED ROSE!! *Rose races upstairs* The next morning, Dorothy is teaching her Year 12 English class when Alison disrupts the class. Dorothy: All right class! Today, we are going to be talking about… Alison: This better be interesting. Dorothy: As I was saying, before Miss Patterson rudely interrupted me… Alison: I wasn’t being rude! Dorothy: If you continue to interrupt me Alison, I will send you to Mr Bertram’s office! *Alison just rolls her eyes* Dorothy: Now, we are going to talk about your assignment. They are due today. *The class except for Alison and another girl, Megan Tierney hand in their assignments* Dorothy: Why haven’t you two handed in your assignments? Megan: Here’s a note from home Miss Zbornak. *Dorothy reads the note silently* Dorothy: Okay Megan. I’ll give you an extension. Hand it in to me next week. Megan: Thanks Miss. *walks out of the classroom* Dorothy: Alison? Alison: I didn’t do it. Dorothy: Then you automatically fail. Alison: OH COME ON! Dorothy: I’m sorry Alison. Megan had very logical reason for not doing her assignment. Alison: And I don’t? I DON’T NEED THIS CLASS AND I CERTAINLY DON’T WANT A BITCH OF A TEACHER LIKE YOU! *storms out of the classroom* *Dorothy sighs heavily* At the general store, Rose is rearranging the canned goods when Ruth “Roo” Stewart enters the store. Roo: Hello. Rose: Oh, hi Ruth! What would you like? Roo: Do you have any of those Razzamatazz stockings? Rose: Over there. *points behind the back row* *Ailsa enters the store* Ailsa: Sorry, I’m late! *sees Ruth* Aren’t you meant to be at school Roo? Roo: I have a free period. Ailsa: And I’m Hazel Hawke! Roo: It’s true! Rose: Now Ruth. How would you like an after school job here at the store? Roo: I suppose that would be okay. Ailsa: Unfortunately, we don’t have any positions available. I’m sorry Roo, but you will have to look somewhere else. Rose: *ignoring Ailsa* You can start next week Ruth. Roo: Thanks. Bye Ailsa. *leaves the store with smug expression* Ailsa: Brat! *to Rose* Thanks for hiring her Rose! Rose: What have you got against poor Ruth. Ailsa: She has been trying to break up me and Alf since we started dating. Rose: Well, Ruth is Alf’s daughter after all. Ailsa: She feels that I’m replacing her mother, which isn’t true at all. Rose: Maybe you should talk to her and tell her how you feel. Ailsa: I’ll try. But I can’t make any promises. *Rose goes back to rearranging the shelves* That afternoon, Dorothy arrives home to find Sophia making a mess in the kitchen. Dorothy: Ma, what are you doing? Sophia: It’s a thing called cooking Dorothy. Have you ever tried it? Dorothy: Look at this mess! Just for that, you may not go to the senior citizen’s ball tonight. Sophia: I’m going and you can’t stop me! Dorothy: You will do as you’re told Ma. I’ve had it up to here with your defiant behaviour! Sophia: I’m just trying to have a life! Dorothy: *sarcastically* And what life is that Ma? The life of Kerri-Anne Kennerley! *Blanche enters* Blanche: Hi girls! I’ll be home late tonight! I’ve got a date! Dorothy: You sound very serious about Donald. Blanche: Oh, I am! I’ll be upstairs *goes upstairs to change* Dorothy: I’ll get a mop and bucket! Sophia: You’re snippy today! Dorothy: I had a rough day Ma! I don’t want to argue with you! Sophia: SOR-RY I asked! *walks away* That night, Blanche and Donald are eating at a restaurant in Yabbie Creek. It also happens to be their first date. Blanche: I just love this place! Have you eaten here before? Donald: A few times, with my ex-wife. Blanche: I hope the waiter hurries up and gives us our food. I’m starving. Donald: That dress makes you look 21. Blanche: Why Donald Fisher you devil! *smiles* I’m 35 years-old and it’s not easy keeping this body. *Donald looks at her suspiciously* Blanche: Fine! I’m 38. *The waiter arrives with their food* Blanche: Thanks. *to Donald* After this, why don’t you and I go to your place? *smiles* Donald: Are you sure? Blanche: I’m positive. *laughs lightly* *At another table, Doris Peters and Celia are spying on Blanche and Donald* Doris: Can you believe that Blanche Devereaux? She has no self-respect! Celia: She was probably born a trollop. We should spread the word when we have lunch with Betty tomorrow. *Unfortunately for Celia and Doris, Blanche has heard every word.* Blanche: Is there a problem Cecile? Celia: My name is Celia! Blanche: Sorry. I enjoy the company of a man something the two of you never seem to enjoy! Doris: My word! Blanche: At this rate, if you two miserable ladies continue gossiping you will wind up with no friends. Now, if you’ll excuse me, Donald and I are going home. Ciao! *leaves the restaurant* Celia: How dare she speak to us like that! Doris: Her mother must’ve been a trollop too Celia! *they go back to eating their meal* Over at the ladies’ house, Dorothy is fuming because Sophia has not come home at 8:30. It is now 11:00pm. *Rose enters the living room* Rose: What are you still doing up Dorothy? Dorothy: I’m waiting for Ma to come home. Rose: Do you have any idea where she went? Dorothy: *sarcastically* She went to Luna Park, Rose! Of course I don’t know where she is! *Just then, Sophia enters the house* Dorothy: Ma, where have you been? Sophia: I went to the senior citizens ball. Dorothy: I specifically told you that you weren’t allowed to go to the ball and you disobeyed me? Rose: Well, if you put it that way… Dorothy: Shut up Rose! *to Sophia* Now look here, Ma. I don’t want to play the role of the mean daughter, but until you do what I say, I’m going to have to! Sophia: Like you can stop me! Dorothy: If you continue to behave like a teenager, I will put you into a home! Sophia: I don’t need this anymore! *goes upstairs* Dorothy: Where are you going? Sophia: I’m moving out! Obviously, you want me gone so I’m granting you your wish! *slams her bedroom door shut* *Dorothy and Rose look shocked* COMING SOON - Will Sophia move out? - Dorothy decides to have Alison removed from her English and History classes - Rose’s daughter Gunilla comes to visit - Blanche and Donald become the prime target of Celia’s gossiping STAY TUNED

Episode 75 The next morning (Tuesday), Tina goes downstairs to find Rachael sleeping on the couch. Tina: Rachael. *tapping Rachael’s cheek* *Rachael wakes up* Rachael: What? What? *sees Tina* Oh, good morning Tina. I meant to talk to you last night. Tina: It’s okay. Rachael: You don’t even know what I was going to say. Tina: You were going to apologise for our fight. Rachael: You know me so well. Tina: Well, I AM your sister. *laughs* Rachael: Truce? Tina: Of course. *gives Rachael a hug* Rachael: What do you want to do today? Tina: I’m out of ideas. Besides, don’t you have to go to TAFE? Rachael: I’m thinking of chucking a sickie. I want to look good for Jenny and Brock’s wedding. Tina: It’s in four days! Rachael: I just hope it’s a success. Tina: I’m so glad that Jenny chose us as bridesmaids. Did she get the dresses yet? Rachael: She’s going to get them today. The dresses are pink with white trim. Tina: My favourite colour. *smiles* Rachael: Jenny wants our hair done at Nina’s salon at midday. Tina: I want my hair curled that day. Rachael: You’ll just have to wait and see what Jenny says. Tina: I just realised something. Who are we going to leaving in charge of Isaiah? Rachael: We could ask Mareta. She’s pretty good with kids. Tina: I’ll ring her this afternoon. *writes down the Varu’s phone number* Meanwhile, Alison rushes over to Julie Ann’s place upon hearing about Lowana’s phone call. Alison: Where is she? Julie Ann: In the living room, like a zombie. *Alison runs into the living room and finds Lowana sitting on the couch, her eyes all puffy* Lowana: She’s threatening me. Alison: Who is? Lowana: That trollop! Alison: Why did you call me? Lowana: You are the only one out of Leon’s friends I trust. Alison: Are you saying that Hayley made that threatening phone call? Lowana: Of course I am! Who else would it be? *Julie Ann enters the living room with two cups of coffee* Julie Ann: Lowana, I think you should go to bed and rest. Lowana: You think that I’m delusional, don’t you? Julie Ann: We’re not saying that. But you need to calm down and relax. *Lowana grabs a pillow and walks towards the room she is sleeping in* Julie Ann: *to Alison* I’m sorry about this. You obviously had errands to run. Alison: I was on my way to TAFE. Pardon me for not introducing myself, I’m Alison Patterson. Julie Ann: Julie Ann Reynolds. Who’s this Hayley she’s going on about? Alison: Her brother’s girlfriend. I mean WAS his girlfriend until Lowana and her friend tore them apart. Julie Ann: So, that’s why Lowana got kicked out! She told me her parents didn’t want her around. Alison: She’s always after attention. I wonder why she’s really acting out? Julie Ann: I don’t know. I could try talking to her. I AM her best friend after all. Alison: Good idea. I have to leave now, excuse me. *walks out of the house* Lowana: *from the bedroom* Is she gone? Julie Ann: She’s just getting out of the driveway now. Lowana: *from the bedroom* Okay. If she calls about Hayley, tell her I’m in the shower. *Julie Ann looks puzzled* At TAFE, Alison is telling Vicki, Amy and Melissa about the phone call Lowana received. Alison: For once, I actually feel sorry for Lowana. Melissa: Well, I don’t. That’s what she gets for manipulating and lying to people. Vicki: I don’t really talk to her, but I have a feeling she’s lonely. Amy: What makes you say that Vicki? Vicki: Personal experience. Alison: She does have a point. Melissa: Still, it doesn’t change what Lowana did. Amy: Maybe she’s upset because she doesn’t want Leon to grow up. Alison: Another great point. She needs help sooner or later. Vicki: Where does she live? Alison: I’ll give you her friend Julie Ann’s address. *writes down the address before giving it to Vicki* Vicki: Thanks. I’ll see her this afternoon. Alison: She’s probably still peeved about the mystery phone call. *Melissa laughs* Amy: It’s not funny. *cracks up* Vicki: AHEM!! *Melissa and Amy stop laughing* Melissa/Amy: Sorry. Meanwhile at Civic High, 8 Plato is having English with Miss Owens. They are reading And Then There Were None. Miss Owens: For homework, I want you all to write down what Vera Claythorne did to Cyril Hamilton that causes her a lot of guilt. Todd: Would it be because she dumped him? *smirks at Hayley* *Hayley glares at him* Hayley: Shut up! Madison: Don’t listen to him. *glares at Todd* You’re ugly Todd! Todd: Look who’s talking! Miss Owens: ENOUGH!!! Now, I want you all to write out at least one 150 words for this homework task. The task will be due next English lesson, which is on Thursday. Madison: *to herself* Plenty of time. *the bell rings for recess* Miss Owens: Class dismissed. *The class walk out* Madison: Have you and Leon talked things over yet? Hayley: No. The things he said really hurt my feelings. Madison: Everything will work out. I promise. *As they walk out to the quad, Natalie walks over to them and starts gloating* Natalie: Oh, Hayley. Isn’t Leon talking to you? I’m not surprised. Madison: Leave her alone bitch! Natalie: Shut up Addison! Madison: It’s MADISON! Natalie: *sarcastically* Sorry. *to Hayley* Are you and Tyson up for that double bed yet? *Hayley goes to attack Natalie, but Madison manages to restrain her* Natalie: No, no Addison. Let her go. I’m sure she would like to get suspended. *Donna storms over to Natalie* Donna: LEAVE HER ALONE RIGHT NOW! Natalie: What are you going to do about it Derelict Donna? Donna: THIS! *slaps Natalie* AND IF YOU DON’T LEAVE MY FRIENDS ALONE, YOU WILL REGRET EVER KNOWING ME! GOT THAT BITCH?!? *Natalie just storms off* Donna: You okay girls? Hayley: Just fine. *hugs Donna* Donna: She’ll be sorry. I’ve had enough of her bullying. I just can’t wait for this afternoon. Hayley: Why? What’s happening? Donna: I’ll tell you all about it when the home bell rings. That afternoon, Donna’s class has Maths with Miss Saenz. Donna waits for Natalie to bully someone before she can go on the attack. Carina: Miss Saenz? What’s the answer to question 4? I can’t seem to understand it. Miss Saenz: I’ll help you. *Just then, someone knocks on the door. It’s Miss Ayrton, the head teacher of Maths* Miss Ayrton: Miss Saenz. I need to see you for a moment. Miss Saenz: I’ll be right back Year 10. *walks out of the classroom* Natalie: Aw, poor Carina. Having problems with your Maths again? Carina: Shut up Nathan! Natalie: Nathan?!? NATHAN?!?! Why you… Donna: Don’t worry Carina. I know just thing that will shut her up. *pours an entire bottle of blue paint all over Natalie* Natalie: MY HAIR!!! It’s covered in paint! Donna: You got what you deserved for being a heartless bully!! And besides, the colour blue really does suit you. *Natalie runs out of the room, totally humiliated* Mareta: Good one Donna. Donna: Thanks, but you should be really thanking Kiara who supplied me with the paint. Kiara: Thank you all. *The class start cheering and clapping. Miss Saenz returns* Miss Saenz: What’s going on? Kiara: We were just cheering and clapping because this is the best Maths class ever. *Miss Saenz smiles before returning to her desk* When school finishes, Hayley is walking home when Leon walks over to her. Leon: Hey. Hayley: What do you want? Leon: I’m just trying to be nice. Hayley: Do you realise how much you hurt me when you said those awful things to me? DO YOU?!? Leon: Yes, I do. But your behaviour isn’t exactly helping the situation. Hayley: Why is that? Leon: Giving me the silent treatment. I mean, come on. It’s just immature. Hayley: YOU’RE A GOOD ONE TO TALK ABOUT IMMATURE!!!! Leon: IS THAT SO? WHY DON’T YOU STOP BEING SO PIG-HEADED? Hayley: PIG-HEADED?!? THAT’S CHARMING! WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO NEXT, LEON? HIT ME! *Leon looks hurt* Leon: I would NEVER, EVER hit you! I know you don’t see it at the moment, but I still love you.

She can only leave when she has to go to the bathroom. Her meals will be delivered to her on a tray. Rose: Did you lock the windows as well? Dorothy: *sarcastically* No Rose. I wanted to make sure that Diana Ross sings ‘Chain Reaction’ from Ma’s bedroom window. Of course I locked her window! Rose: Why can’t Blanche watch Sophia? Dorothy: Remember what happened when I asked her to watch Ma for me? Rose: It wasn’t that bad.

And I would appreciate it if you removed yourself from this shop! Celia: How dare you! Blanche: Oh-ho-ho! Did I strike a nerve there God woman? Celia: Your language is disgusting Blair! Good day! *walks out the shop* Blanche: *calls out* The name is BLANCHE! *to herself* Idiot woman! I think it’s time I got back at her with a mean prank! Ailsa: What prank would that be?

That little… That afternoon, Dorothy is at the Summer Bay Council office talking to Jennifer Luciano. Dorothy: I just want to say that I apologise for Ma’s behaviour at the meeting last night. It was out of character. Jennifer: I’ve never been slapped before, but my comments to your mother were a bit out of line. Dorothy: I just don’t know what to do with Ma anymore. Jennifer: Have you tried putting her into a nursing home? Dorothy: Once. She had a stroke three years ago and I sent her to Shady Pines for her to recover. Boy, did she cause a ruckus! Jennifer: There’s a retirement village in Yabbie Creek. My parents live there. Dorothy: I’ll look into it. Will you be pressing charges against Ma for slapping you?

Sophia: Let’s go! *Blanche and Sophia run off* When Dorothy arrives home, she finds Rose watching All My Children. Dorothy: Is Ma in her room? Rose: Yes. How did it go with Jennifer?

The words just came out wrong. Alison: It’s hard when someone your close to moves away. Rachael: I wouldn’t be surprised if she left straight away. Alison: You were upset. She’ll probably forget about the argument when you return home. Rachael: Do you think so? Alison: Sure. *they hear loud yelling* Alison: I wonder what’s going on. *Both Alison and Rachael go out the front yard and see Alexis and Lowana continuing their fight on the lawn* Alison: Hey!

I spoke to Kiara in Science and she suggested that we throw a stink bomb into Natalie’s bedroom window. Tyson: I don’t know where she lives. Donna: But I do. Tyson: Still, it won’t solve anything. Donna: Natalie has had it in for me for as long as I can remember! I want revenge! Tyson: I guess that means we’re going to have to take care of ourselves if Leon and Hayley won’t talk to us anymore. Donna: Do you think that’s going to happen? Tyson: I don’t know anymore. I just don’t know. Donna: Oh Tyson. *goes over to Tyson and hugs him* At her house, Alexis is in her bedroom fixing her hair when there is a knock on the door.

Riggot: I think that’s what Leon said. Alexis: One bitch moves in with another bitch and what do you get? TWO bitches for the price of one! Riggot: Have you even met this Julie Ann? Alexis: No, but I overheard conversations Todd had with Ella and Natalie about Julie Ann. Riggot: You wanna go out Saturday night? Alexis: Saturday is Jenny and Brock’s wedding. Why not Friday? Riggot: Rugby training. Thursday? Alexis: I’m going to late night with Debbie and the girls. Riggot/Alexis: Wednesday!

Wayne: Some idiot threw acid in her face as she was walking to her car. Her face looks like it’s been melted. Sylvia: Oh no. What’s going to happen now? Wayne: She’s going to have surgery but it could take months for her face to heal. Sylvia: How are the kids dealing with it? Wayne: I left the kids with her mother while she recovers.

Episode 73 Riggot and Mareta are waiting for the forensic examiner to determine what type of skull they found. Mareta: How long will it take for you to determine the type of skull sir? Forensic examiner: Between two and five days. Riggot: This is freaky stuff man. Forensic examiner: According to my findings, this skull has been under your house for more than two hundred years. How long have you lived in this house for? Mareta: About four years, I guess. Riggot: It was. Cause our old house was going to be pulled down. Mareta: *to the forensic examiner* Call us as soon as you determine the cause. Forensic examiner: Will do. *takes the container which has the skull in it before leaving* Riggot: I have a bad feeling about this sis. Mareta: If only VJ didn’t move to Canberra! He would’ve fixed this! Riggot: He’s been gone for three months! You don’t expect him to drive two hours each way for a crisis. Mareta: *sighs* I guess your right. It’s still scary though. *Riggot hugs Mareta* Riggot: It will be just fine. I promise. That night, Alexis is in her bedroom with Debbie, talking about how their weekend went. Debbie: You look pissed off. Are you okay? Alexis: Hayley and Leon broke up. Debbie: Oh boy! What happened? They were so happy together. Alexis: Why don’t you meet his sister? The bitch that tore them apart! Debbie: What did she do? Alexis: She made it look like they were cheating on each other. Well, Hayley believed Leon that he didn’t cheat on her. But when the mutt and her new best friend planted a tainted photo of Hayley and Tyson in bed together, it got ugly. So last night, Leon finds out about the lie and tried to make up with Hayley but all he got was flowers to his face. Debbie: That’s terrible! Who’s the new best friend? Alexis: Natalie Evans! Debbie: Your arch-nemesis? Alexis: That’s right! Right now, I hate her more than I hate Todd. Debbie: Where’s Leon’s sister? Alexis: Probably at the mole’s house, bawling “Leon disowned me!” “Leon hates me!” WAA! WAA! WAA! The mutt deserved to be disowned! Debbie: What are you going to do about Evans? Alexis: She’s being ostracised starting tomorrow! Debbie: Do you think it will work? Alexis: Maybe. You going to school tomorrow? Debbie: No. I’m not up to it. Alexis: Wanna come to mine again?

You’ve been used to me and Isaiah living here in this house and you can’t stand to see us go. Rachael: You know that’s not true. Tina: I’m moving to Warilla, whether you like it or you don’t. Rachael: But it’s a two hour drive! Tina: You can still visit Isaiah and me. It’s not like we’re moving to New Zealand. Rachael: You know what? I hope you did move to New Zealand. *walks upstairs* *Tina looks betrayed* After school, Tyson decides to go over to Leon’s house and make peace with him. *He rings the doorbell.

I’m going to bed now. You stay in your room okay. Alexis: Whatever. *smiles* Claire: Good night. *Alexis waits for her bedroom door to close before she can sneak out through her bedroom window* Alexis: It’s party time. *When she gets to Kiara’s house, Alexis gives her some cruisers and a bottle of red wine.* Alexis: Here you go. Kiara: Thanks. *puts the alcohol down* It’s a pity none of the other Year 8 students could come. Alexis: I know. Some of them don’t drink. Kiara: I managed to get some of my brother’s friends from Parramatta to this party tonight. Alexis: This is going to be so much fun. There’s no drugs is there? Kiara: Of course not. I hate drugs as much as you do. Alexis: Where are the guests? Kiara: In the living room. *leads Alexis to the group of over three hundred teens* Alexis: Let’s party! Kiara: Right on! *they high five* On the other side of town, Leon and Hayley are having their first evening date at a French restaurant. Hayley: I don’t understand the menu. It’s all in French. Leon: That’s why they call it a French restaurant. *A waiter approaches them* Waiter: Is there a problem? Hayley: I don’t understand the menu. What is poulet grillé à la moutarde? Waiter: Grilled chicken with mustard. Hayley: I’ll have that then. Leon: What is Pavé de rumsteck sauce à la menthe? Waiter: Rump steak with mint sauce. Leon: Then I’ll order it.

Leon: Sure. *they kiss* When they get to Hayley’s house, Leon and Hayley sit down on the lounge and start to kiss. Hayley: You are such a good kisser. Leon: You’re an even better kisser. Hayley: What’s on Channel Seven tonight? Leon: Some movie. Hayley: Let’s watch it. Leon: Okay. *Hayley turns the TV on* Leon: Oh crap! I forgot to ring my parents and let them know where I am. *goes over to Hayley’s phone and calls his house* Hi Dad. It’s me. Listen, Hayley asked me to stay over for the night. Can I? We won’t be sleeping together. I’m sleeping on the sofa. I’ll be home after breakfast. Good night. *hangs up the phone* Hayley: Now where were we? Leon: Watching the movie of course. *puts his arm around Hayley’s shoulder before kissing her again* At 2:30 in the morning, a drunken Alexis climbs in through her bedroom window to find her mother standing at the door. Claire: Been partying again have we Alexis? Alexis: *drunkenly* Oh yeah! Had the time of my life! Claire: Well, I’m glad you had the time of your life because you’ve now earned yourself another week of being grounded! Alexis: Who are you? THE F***ING COPS! Claire: How many drinks have you had young lady? Alexis: Dunno. Don’t care! Claire: I’ll deal with you in the morning! *storms out of her room* The next morning (Sunday), Alexis has a massive hangover and throws up in the toilet. Alexis: My head… Claire: That’s what you get for drinking and partying all night. Alexis: Shut up Mum! I just want my head to stop throbbing! Claire: Ever heard of taking Panadol? Alexis: WELL IF I COULD FIND IT, I WOULD TAKE IT! Claire: Don’t speak to me in that tone Alexis. You are in enough trouble as it is! Alexis: Like you didn’t party and go swanning off in the city! Claire: I was 18 when I first started partying! You’re nearly 14! That concerns me! Alexis: Whatever! *walks into her bedroom and closes the door* *Claire sighs* At Rachael’s house, Alison has brought Tina back home from the hospital with baby Isaiah. Rachael: Welcome home. *goes over to her sister and hugs her* Tina: Thanks. I’m so glad to be home. Alison: Would you like me to help out with Isaiah on my days off from work? Tina: I would like that. I have to go house hunting on Tuesday so I could use the help. Rachael: Don’t worry. Me and Ali are always on hand to help our friends and family in need. Tina: I’m going to unpack my things. *hands Isaiah over to Rachael before heading upstairs* Alison: Any more phone calls from her abusive boyfriend? Rachael: No. He seems to finally get the message. *The phone rings* Rachael: Who could that be? *picks up the phone* Hello? NO! TINA IS NOT HERE! SHE LEFT YESTERDAY! WHAT PART OF THAT DON’T YOU GET??? SHE HAD AN ABORTION NOW DEAL WITH IT!!! *slams the phone down* Alison: Was that him? Rachael: Yes! He won’t leave us alone! I know he’s after that baby.
