3 updates in one day! Someone has a lot of time on their hands. (nice avatar by the way Gen)

Aww Delkotorsky is asking for advice! From Speed! Wow, that whole conversation was actually mature and guy-like. But i love it when moments like this happen. It's always nice to slow down sometimes and catch a glimpse of the lives of the hectic RT characters. :lol: but this line made me laugh :lol:
Delko: I've been feeling kind of lonely lately. I mean, not really in that way but uh *laughs*
Click to expand...

Love the update Gen. :)
 
I'm baaaaaaack! Whee!

Ah, the funs of RTs. But hey, no way you're getting me down BIG slides unless you push me. Which is something my friends would definately try :lol:

Aw, Speedy and Eric having a man talk. With man advice and man...voices. How adorable! I expected Speed to just to just send him on his way. Figures the guy who blows up the toilet is the one who gets Speed to open up...sorta.

Ah, the classic "people getting dosed with marijuana" play. So funny every time. Poor Speedy though. I'm fairly sure he's the one with the sortid history of drug abuse but then again, he's hilarious on drugs :lol: Except when he's beating people up...


And yikes, you're BOTH youngins! My dad is 63 :lol:


please update soon!
 
I think my dads senile. *crickets* Pretty sure.

:lol: I WIN. (my dad's going to be the first to croak, yaaaaay....)

Ah don't get rushed on updating Geni. Yesterday you updated 3 times, i think you deserve a break. :)
 
Thanks, I'll take my break. ;)

Thanks so much for the reviews gals, they make my face just light up when I read 'em. :D

I should have another update late tomorrow evening or even earlier!
 
Haha, amazing chapters, Gen.

I love how Eric is going after Jess, and in doing so, attempting to mature and show that he is smart and capable of being serious with her. It's sweet, esecially because it's Eric we're talking about.

I promise I'm here, just busy. :) Great job, Geni!
 
Thanks Lilly. :D

Holy crap, why didn't I notice Carly was back? :eek: *huggles my Aussie counterpart* I was watching a show about Australian birds on Nature the other day and it made me think of you. :D

Bromley Mountain

Anni: *sits at table* Hey.

Speed: *drinks beer* Hey.

Anni: They sell beer here?

Speed: I got it from the Hummerhome.

Anni: Ah. Have you seen Horatio lately? I'm out of quarters.

Speed: What do you need quarters for?

Anni: The gumball machines.

Speed: I don't want to know.

Horatio: *walks over*

Anni: WHOA. You look like a cooked lobster.

Horatio: I fell asleep. And now I'm the same shade as my hair.

Speed: *smirks* It's a good look for you. I mean, sunglasses outline and all.

Horatio: *frowns*

Anni: *smiles* Does it hurt?

Horatio: It took me an hour to walk 20 feet.

Anni: *snorts*

Speed: *looks down at table*

Horatio: Yes it's all very amusing.

Heather: *runs over* Okay no one saw me knock over the gumball mac-HAHAHAHA! OH MY GOD YOU LOOK LIKE A LOBSTER!

Horatio: *sigh*

Heather: Oh my God that's so awesome. You like, match now.

Horatio: Laugh it up.

Carly: *walks over* Heather, you knocked over the gumball machi-....Wow.

Horatio: No laughs?

Carly: *bursts out laughing*

Horatio: *nods*

Speed: Sorry H, but it could have been any other color it's just...now we call really call you red and have it mean something.

Anni: *bursts out laughing*

Horatio: I am going to lie down in the Hummerhome. *walks away*

Anni: You know, if he wears white, he'll light up like a sunburnt christmas tree.

Speed: I guess we'll just have to sick Lora on him, she'll take care of him.

Anni: I bet she will. Hey, how about you get sunburnt and I take care of you. *smiles*

Speed: *smirks* Sorry, red's not my favorite color.

Anni: Suit yourself.

Katie: *walks over* Did you guys see Horatio? He looks like a turnip.

Carly: I'd say more of an apple.

Katie: Oh. Anyway. *sits* I found the coolest place for us to visit. *places paper on table*

Carly: A ranch?

Katie: Well it's more like a bed and breakfast sort of thing. But I figure hey, might as well try it all out.

Carly: And what are we supposed to do at said ranch?

Katie: Tie Eric to a bail of hay and roll him around.

Carly: Where did he go anyway?

Heather: Somewhere with Jess.

Anni: I hear they're getting back together.

Carly: What? When?

Anni: I hear they're gonna have like 10 more kids.

Heather: Ouch. 10 Erics.

Anni: I know.

Speed: Anni, no one said anything about 10 kids.

Anni: Shut up. *turns to Carly* I also heard Eric has a rash.

Carly: *lifts brow*

Katie: Are we going to this ranch or not?

Anni: Why don't we go somewhere on the ocean.

Katie: ...Like the ocean?

Anni: YEAH! OH MAN CAN WE?

Katie: *looks at Speed* You married that?

Speed: *smirks*

Katie: You're insane.

Anni: Carly, you pick where we go next.

Carly: Australia?

Anni: No. Anyone else?

Carly: Hey why was my choice all of a sudden vetoed?

Anni: Because customs won't let me through anymore.

Heather: Why, you bring a bomb on the plane or something?

Anni: No. But apparently fingernails are weapons.

Carly: *lifts brow*

Anni: Customs people are way too grabby.

Cellphone rings

Katie: *looks down at phone*

Anni: *looks over*

Katie: ...Um. Excuse me. *leaves*

Carly: So Australia's completely out?

Anni: For now.

Heather: Let's go to Wisconsin.

Anni: There's nothing in Wisconsin.

Heather: There wasn't much in Vermont either.

Anni: Look, if I want to see some trees, I'll twirl around.

Heather: ...They have more than trees...there are roads too.

Carly: How about Montana?

Anni: Too Canadian.

Carly: It's not even in Canada. It's like saying Florida's too Cuban.

Everyone: Ooooh.

Carly: *rolls eyes* Oh give me a break.

Katie: *walks over*

Anni: What was that about?

Katie: Nothing. *sits*

Anni: That's two calls in this many days. The only people who have your number are all of us.

Katie: No.

Anni: *grabs phone*

Katie: HEY!

Anni: What? I want to know who the mystery caller is. *punching buttons*

Katie: Anni give it back!

Anni: No way. AHA! Last call recieved...someone named 'Lovers Lane Dating'. *starts to laugh*

Katie: *grabs phone*

Anni: You belong to a dating service?

Katie: Well hey if I'm going to die alone, I might as well browse.

Anni: *snorts* I never thought you'd stoop that low.

Speed: Why don't you give it a rest, Anni.

Anni: What? It's funny!

Carly: *looks down at ground*

Heather: *looks at nails*

Anni: Come on, Carly makes a racist comment and I can't poke a little fun at my best bud?

Carly: It wasn't that racist.

Heather: I think it's cool. I mean, I wouldn't have the guts to sign up to one of those sites. Plus you got a couple of calls so that means there are guys interested, right?

Carly: I'm not racist.

Katie: Actually I called them. They called back to say they weren't interested.

Heather: ....Oh. Sorry. But hey, if I were a guy, I'd date you.

Katie: *scoffs* Thanks.

Carly: I'd totally date you too. I mean you're fun, you're pretty, you're...um...

Speed: Understanding, loyal, smart, honest, witty, motivated-

Anni: Alright I think we get it. Look, Katie, I'm sorry but it just doesn't seem like this is your thing. It's definitely something I would do but you're more of an old fashioned girl.

Katie: I'm younger than you.

Anni: Exactly. You have plenty of time to find that special someone.

Katie: *stares at Anni*

Anni: Really. I mean, he's probably already on your proverbial doorstep.

Katie: *eye twitches*

Anni: I say ditch the dating site and just take a look around yourself. Computers aren't love.

Katie: ...I wouldn't be dating the computers.

Anni: Yeah but they listen so much better.

Carly: No, I'd chose a man over a computer.

Heather: Really?

Carly: Yeah. Because then you get that safety and stability.

Heather: *laughs* You saying women can't take care of themselves? You're so sexist.

Carly: How can I be sexist against my own gender!

Heather: Men are really only good for one thing. Clearing out the fridge. You're better off without 'em Katie.

Carly: No she's not. How could you live your life without finding your soul mate? You know, that person who shares your inner most thoughts and feelings.

Heather: Men don't have thoughts.

Carly: Well it's better than sleeping alone in a cold bed.

Katie: You know what, thanks a lot for all of that but I'll be fine.

Carly: *hugs Katie* You need more hugs.

Katie: *lifts brow*

Carly: *hugs tighter*

Heather: I WANT TO HUG! I WANT TO HUG! *hugs Katie*

Anni: I WANNA HUG TOO! *hugs Katie*

Katie: Thanks.

Heather: Who needs a man when you got us?

Katie: We aren't going to be on road trips forever you know. I think we should start to look at our futures.

Heather: Why?

Katie: Why not? Aren't you curious as to where you're going to end up in 5 years? 10 years?

Heather: ...I never really thought about it.

Katie: Even Eric's thinking about it for christ sakes.

Heather: Why does that mean we can't still have fun for the next 5 years?

Katie: We could but it's a bit dilluded to think we'll still be doing all of this forever. I don't know about you guys, but I'm tired of wasting my years here.

Carly: This isn't a waste.

Katie: It is to me. It's why I'm thinking about buying a home down south. Getting a real job.

Anni: This is stupid. You can't just leave us.

Katie: I didn't say right this second. You guys don't have to agree.

Anni: You're damn right I don't agree. I'm sorry your life sucks so much because of us and that you feel you've wasted your time. I'm a little offended by that.

Katie: That's your perogative.

Ryan: *walks over* H says we're leaving. He won't let me see him though, he keeps hiding in his room.

Carly: That's because he looks like a crab.

TBC....................
 
Wow...talk about angst...its the beginning of the end for the RTrs. And talk about spastic...just what the hell was Anni doing? Did she go and offend everyone? Is there something chemically wrong with her?

I have to say, Horatio turning red was hilarious. And the whole spill about life after the RT was just inspired:lol: Katie , all of a sudden, seems Mature now. :) That's great:lol:


Loved it, as always! ;)
 
Speed: *smirks* It's a good look for you. I mean, sunglasses outline and all.
Click to expand...
Has anyone ever done that before?? It's embarrassing.

Horatio: I am going to lie down in the Hummerhome. *walks away*
Click to expand...
*bursts* Where am i to rub lotion all over him!! *slaps hands over mouth* Frick.

And is it just me or is Katie getting more phone calls...? Hmm...

Oh. :lol: I read ahead and find out why Katie's getting so many calls. Wow i'm one of the older ones here and i'm the biggest goof. Anyhoo, Katie's using a dating service? Ah c'mon girl! Like you said, you're young! You don't need a dating service! Oy, i really hate those online dating things. I just do.

Loved it, thanks Geni for the midnight update! :D
 
Holy crap, why didn't I notice Carly was back? *huggles my Aussie counterpart* I was watching a show about Australian birds on Nature the other day and it made me think of you.
Click to expand...
*giggle* I is luffed! Heh, When I was in Hawaii, I saw an Outback Steakhouse (hilariously stereotypical Australian, by the way XD) and it made me think of you thinking of me when you go there XD

What, I'm not weird or anything, why do people keep asking...?

BAHAHA! I'd love too see H baked like a lobster. That would be the absolute funniest thing ever (well, not EVER, that happened while I was away XD)

Hey, I know where we should visit...AUSTRALIA! *crickets* just kidding...been there, done that. No-one else cool to meet there since you've already met me... *more crickets* What? I'm not weird rememeber...*tumbleweed* Oh fine, I'll shut up now.

Aw, poor Katie. 10 bucks says the first guy she meets on that service turns out to be a creep, in true Katie fashion... *huggles katie* YAY! GROUP HUG!


anyways, please update soon!
 
*snickers*

Wow. Carly's sexist against females and she's a female. Hypocrite. :p

Oh man.. I can see Horatio with a sunburn, with white goggle eyes. :lol: at least when he wears his sunglasses he'd look like a cool lobster. :p

Katie... is mature? *shifty eyes* what is RT coming to?

Great past few updates, Geni!
 
Sorry I haven't had another chapter up lately. Winter is catching up with me. :p

Bwaha, thanks for all of the awesome reviews everyone! :D

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hummerhome

Ryan: Come on H, let me in.

Horatio: *from inside room* No.

Ryan: You can't stay in there forever.

Horatio: Watch me.

Ryan: You need someone to change your dressings.

Horatio: I'll change them myself, thank you.

Ryan: We just want to help.

Horatio: I don't want your help. Not until all of this heals.

Ryan: No one's going to laugh.

Horatio: People have already laughed.

Ryan: Yeah but they're stupid.

Heather: Hey.

Ryan: Sorry.

Heather: *walks over to door* Will you let Lora in?

Horatio: ...

Heather: H?

Horatio: Yes.

Heather: You're up Lora.

Lora: YES! I RULE, YOU ALL SUCK! HA HA HA! *runs into room*

Heather: ...She seemed a little too happy about that.

Inside room

Lora: Now, I've gotten some antibiotic cream from Josh before we left so you just lay down and I'll rub lotion all over you. Got it? Good.

Horatio: *stares blankly*

Hummerhome area

Carly: So Australia's still out then.

Anni: Let's go to Kansas.

Heather: OH MY GOD YES!

Anni: *stares at Heather*

Heather: Sorry...it's just...KANSAS! *sings* Carry on my wayward soooon, there'll be peace when you are doooone, lay your weary head to reeeeeest, don't you cry no more DO DO DO DO da da da daaaaa da da da daaaaaa da da dadadadad-

Anni: *covers Heather's mouth*

Heather: *humming*

Calleigh: What are we going to do in Kansas? All there is, is wheat.

Heather: CHASE DEMONS!

Anni: Stop watching Buffy.

Heather: *stares at Anni* Buffy? Who the hell is Buffy? I'm talking about Kansas.

Anni: *rolls eyes*

Katie: Don't let your fandoms slip in here Heather.

Heather: I'm not.

Katie: You kind of were.

Heather: You don't even know what I was talking about.

Lilly: Hey are we ever going to pick up Eric and Jess or are they gonna stay in Vermont forever?

Calleigh: Oops.

Katie: *walks over to counter* You know, I think we should head somewhere Heather wants to go. She hasn't picked anything yet.

Heather: KANSAS! KANSAS!

Anni: So....Kansas?

Katie: *grabs glass* So that means you're doing the research.

Heather: But Lora has the laptop.

Katie: It's not like she'll eat you.

Lilly: Actually, she might.

Katie: *turns on water* Okay then take it from under her and run like hell. glass slips AH! DAMNIT!

Anni: *runs over* You okay?

Katie: *sigh* Well I've messed up my arm.

Anni: *grabs cloth* Yikes.

Katie: Could anything else go wrong today?

Calleigh: We're out of gas.

Katie: Murphy's Law.

Anni: *wipes arm* Do we have any medi-packs?

Ryan: Yeah there's a couple in the glove box.

Anni: *stares at Ryan*

Ryan: What?

Anni: GO GET IT!

Ryan: Right. *runs*

Anni: Geez. The guy's head would fall off if it weren't securely fastened to his neck. *looks down* You drop glasses often?

Katie: No, why.

Anni: You have some scars on your arm.

Katie: *pulls arm away* You know what, the bleeding isn't that bad.

Anni: I just want to help.

Katie: I don't need your help. *walks away, slams door*

Anni: Arg, I want to strangle her sometimes.

Speed: *stands* I'll go talk to her.

Anni: Why?

Speed: *leaves*

Anni: Great, they're going to start going at it, aren't they.

Ryan: *runs over* I got the medi-packs.

Anni: *throws medi-pack*

Ryan: OW!

Inside bedroom

Katie: *wraps arm*

Speed: *walks in*

Katie: Go away.

Speed: *walks over* Well, at least we're equally miserable.

Katie: *scoffs* So what's eating at you?

Speed: You first.

Katie: I'm going to die alone.

Speed: *nods*

Katie: *starts to cry*

Speed: *looks around*

Katie: *crying* It was stupid, I don't really want to die. I've already been feeling dead for years. I wake up alone, I eat breakfast alone, I drive to work alone, I eat dinner alone and I go to bed alone. It feels like there's just a hole digging itself deeper and deeper and I can't stand sitting in the dark anymore.

Speed: *stares at Katie*

Katie: *covers face, crying*

Speed: *wraps arms around Katie* I'm sorry.

Katie: *hugs Speed*

Speed: *blinks*

Katie: *hugs tighter*

Speed: Um, you know, Anni really wants to help. You should let her. She is your best friend afterall.

Katie: *sniffs*

Speed: I'm probably not the best person to help.

Katie: *shakes head* I don't need your help, I just need you.

Speed: Look, I know you're lonely but...well Colton's single and he's not a creep.

Katie: *laughs*

Speed: I don't think he'd find that funny.

Katie: *lets go* I'm sorry.

Speed: I hope you find what you're looking for. I really do.

Katie: *nods*

Speed: *leaves*

Katie: *sigh*

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hummerhome

Anni: Okay it's taking forever to get to Kansas. Are we there yet?

Calleigh: We're going to Kansas?

Anni: ...Yes.

Calleigh: Oh. *turns wheel* Sorry.

Anni: Wow we just wasted so much time there.

Katie: *walks over, sits*

Anni: You look like crap.

Katie: *nods*

Speed: *sits*

Anni: *slaps Speed* You made her cry!

Speed: I didn't make anyone cry.

Anni: You're a jerk.

Speed: *rolls eyes*

Katie: *whips out phone*

Anni: What are you doing?

Katie: Nothing.

Anni: You're texting someone.

Katie: Mhm.

Anni: That's not nothing. Let me see. *grabs phone*

Katie: UGH ANNI! *slaps Anni*

Anni: Who's Peter?

Katie: Someone I met online.

Anni: Online...is that like a stalker or a pervert?

Katie: Hey, if I'm going to start my life, I'd better get out there.

Anni: But I don't trust people named Peter.

Katie: Why?

Anni: I don't know...Peter Pan? Makes me think of Michael Jackson.

Katie: Fine, I won't text Peter. I'll text...OH! I KNOW SOMEONE IN KANSAS!

Colton: You mean someone you met online.

Katie: Well, yeah but it's not like he's some fat 16 year old kid sitting in his mama's basement.

Colton: And if he is?

Katie: I'll take what I can get.

Inside bedroom

Lora: *places shades on Horatio* There, you look awesome.

Horatio: I feel sticky.

Lora: Don't worry, your clothes will sop it up when you put 'em on.

Horatio: What?

Lora: *hands over shirt*

Horatio: *grabs shirt* Where are we going?

Lora: I heard something about Kansas.

Horatio: But there's sun there.

Lora: Yeah you'd better stay in here.

Horatio: I think I'm going to die.

Lora: You can't die. You're Horatio Caine.

Horatio: *tilts head* That is true.

Hummerhome area

Katie: Oh I'm getting a picture text from him.

Colton: It'll be fake and it'll be a private part.

Katie: What?

Colton: I watch too much MSNBC.

Katie: *stares down at picture*

Colton: *looks over*

Katie: OH MAN.

Colton: It's totally fake. No one can have a smile like that with hair like that.

Katie: *wide-eyed*

Anni: Is he good looking?

Katie: That's an understatement.

Heather: Yeah but he'll probably still be a jerk. We should check him out before you can.

Katie: Aww you'd do that for me?

Heather: Hey if I can't have Ryan, I'm going to test drive everyone else's men.

Ryan: What?

Heather: Nevermind.

Lilly: *narrows eyes*

Katie: *pressing buttons* Okay he says he's all nervous about meeting me because no one ever answers him on the dating site.

Heather: There ya go! *slaps Katie's back*

Katie: No, but maybe that means there's something wrong with him.

Heather: There's nothing wrong with you.

Katie: Uh yeah there is. I'm obsessive, loud, I belong to a team of idiots riding around the world in a Hummerhome and-

Colton: We're not idiots.

Calleigh: OH CRAP!

Colton: What?

Calleigh: I just remembered I was supposed to go pick up Eric and Jess. Ugh, you guys distract me so much.

Colton: I know. *brow bounce*

Calleigh: ...

Colton: *sigh* Nevermind.

Kansas

Delko: Wow, why are we in Kansas?

Calleigh: The girls wanted to come here.

Heather: OMG! *plasters face against window*

Speed: Cows?

Heather: WINCHESTER! WE'RE IN WINCHESTER, KANSAS! OMG!

Katie: This is where Dixon lives.

Lora: *walks over* Who the hell is Dixon?

Katie: My date.

Anni: Her internet date.

Katie: Hey at least if he's a jerk, you guys will find out first.

Anni: That is true. Gives me an excuse to put on a hot dress.

Speed: *frowns*

Anni: For my own sake.

Speed: Sure.

Anni: So where are you meeting this guy?

Katie: A club called 'Desire'.

Anni: Oooh. He pick it?

Katie: I did. I wanted a public place.

Anni: Oooh even better to preview my dance moves for him.

Speed: Are you looking to get a date?

Anni: ...No.

Speed: *rolls eyes*

Club--9pm

Carly: How come Horatio didn't come?

Lora: Horatio didn't want to be in public.

Heather: I see. Well, he could have dyed his skin.

Anni: Ew Michael Jackson.

Heather: Sorry.

Katie: Anyone see him?

Heather: ...Are you hiding behind the booth?

Katie: You guys are supposed to be checking him out and you're standing there.

Heather: Sorry I can't pick out faces as well as you can.

Katie: *ducks down* I see him.

Heather: *turns around* DIXON!

Dixon: *looks over* Yes ma'am?

Heather: OMG he said ma'am. I love Kansas. *reaches out hand* I'm Katie's friend. She's running a bit late so she sent, I mean we came in.

Dixon: *looks at RT team*

Lora: *waves*

Anni: *winks*

Dixon: ...

Lora: So where are you from?

Dixon: Well, I'm from Kansas.

Lora: What are your views on racism?

Dixon: *lifts brow* Excuse me?

Heather: Do you respect women?

Dixon: What does this have to do with anything?

Carly: Have you ever been married?

Dixon: No, look I'm not quite sure what you gals are tryin' to do but I'm feelin' a little uncomfortable with the 20 questions.

Katie: *stands* Okay guys, I think I can handle it from here.

Dixon: *smiles* Katie.

Katie: Yeah. I was hiding behind the booth the whole time. Sorry. These are my friends. Heather, Anni, Carly, um...I think there are more but they're scattered everywhere.

Dixon: *smiles* I see.

Katie: *stares at Dixon*

Heather: *elbows Katie* He's pretty.

Katie: Shut up. *smiles* So um, you want a drink or something?

Dixon: I don't drink, I apologize.

Katie: *smiling* No way, that's awesome.

Dixon: *smiles*

Heather: *tugs Kati's dress* Can I have him?

Katie: *pushes Heather* Let's go somewhere...else.

Dixon: *nods* It was great to meet you ladies.

Heather: Call me!

Katie: *kicks Heather*

Bar

Katie: *sits* You know, my friends offered to 'check you out' before they let me meet you.

Dixon: *laughs* Well meeting people on the internet is dangerous.

Katie: *nods* Are you saying you're dangerous?

Dixon: *looks down at table* So why's a woman like yourself searchin' up guys on the internet?

Katie: I've had bad luck and it's my last desperate attempt. How about you?

Dixon: *scoffs* Good to hear I'm your last desperate attempt.

Katie: I might have more men lined up.

Dixon: If you had more men lined up, you wouldn't have come all the way to Kansas.

Katie: *tilts head*

Dixon: *looks around*

Katie: You never answered my question.

Dixon: *looks at Katie* You seemed nice.

Katie: *lifts brows*

Dixon: So what do you do for a livin'?

Katie: I work at a hotel chain. General Manager. You?

Dixon: I used to work on a farm but decided to do something more meaningful so I went for an acting job. It didn't work out so I came back to Kansas and now I wrangle bulls with my friend chip.

Katie: That would explain the big arms and the scruffy look. Such a cowboy.

Dixon: I get that a lot.

Katie: Mhm. Y'know, to tell you the truth, I was really nervous to come down here. I've had...a lot of bad luck. A LOT. I mean, my first husband was an ass to me, every guy I've dated has tried to kill me and well I'm tired of almost being killed.

Dixon: Husband?

Katie: Oh yeah. But he married my best friend. And I have a daughter. Don't worry though, she's too old to live at home.

Dixon: *nods slowly*

Katie: I totally just lost you.

Dixon: You...didn't add all of that on your profile.

Katie: Now you see why I'm going to die alone.

Dixon: It's easy getting used to being alone. Makes you afraid to try not to be.

Katie: *looks at Dixon*

Dixon: *looks over at side of room* Um, your friends are staring at us.

Katie: *looks over* They're just really protective. We're kind of tighty-knit.

Dixon: Who's that guy with them?

Katie: Oh my God. *looks down at table*

Dixon: What?

Katie: That's Speed. Um, I mean Tim. Ugh, he's my ex-husband. I'm going to kill Lora. This was her doing, I just know it.

Dixon: Huh, he's coming over with them.

Katie: Great.

Lora: NOO NOO!

Speed: Stop looking through people's things. *hands over wallet* I think this is yours.

Dixon: *looks down at wallet*

Katie: Oh my God, Lora you stole his wallet?

Lora: ...No.

Speed: She was going through his credit cards and buying things on Ebay.

Lora: If you get sex toys in the mail, they're not mine.

Dixon: *stands* Miss, it would be awful kind of you to not go through my things again.

Lora: ...

Dixon: Please.

Lora: Um. FINE.

Dixon: May I please have my Visa back?

Lora: ...UGH. *hands over Visa* He's gold too.

Speed: Sorry about that. I caught her before she bought a house.

Dixon: Thanks. And you're the ex-husband?

Speed: *looks at Katie*

Katie: *slams head on table*

Speed: I don't like to broadcast it.

Dixon: *extends hand*

Speed: *looks down*

Dixon: *pulls hand away*

Lora: Hey I'll shake his hand. *extends hand*

Speed: Look, I'll get out of your hair. I'm sure you two were...busy.

Katie: *lifts head* What? No. No we weren't.

Speed: *lifts brow*

Katie: God. *slams head on table*

Dixon: She sure gets a lot of jerks, huh.

Speed: What do you mean?

Dixon: Ex-husbands don't usually look out for their ex-wives.

Speed: *clears throat* I came here to give you back the wallet.

Dixon: Sure. I think y'all need to take off and give her some space.

Lora: How do we know you aren't going to cut her up into little pieces?

Dixon: I promise I'll have her back in one piece.

Lora: ...He annoys me. *leaves*

Speed: *leaves*

Katie: *lifts head* I'm so sorry.

Dixon: It's alright. I can understand their apprehensions, and yours.

Katie: I seem nervous?

Dixon: Yeah.

Katie: Sorry. I just don't know what to expect. Every guy I meet starts out nice but then they're always after my ass or swinging fists.

Dixon: *staring at Katie* It's unfortunate.

Katie: *looks at Dixon*

Dixon: I understand bulls, they do what comes natural. But for a man to lay a hand on a woman...it's the greatest sin.

Katie: *looks down at table* It's not like I can't protect myself.

Dixon: I have no doubt about that. You seem strong.

Katie: Thanks.

Dixon: Are you tired? I can take you back to your place.

Katie: Um...Actually, yeah, I'd like that.

Dixon: *grabs Katie's hand*

Katie: Sorry the 'date' was so short.

Dixon: It was as long as it needed to be, I guess. *smiles*

Katie: *smirks*
