Natasja called this episode "Dirty and bad..which is what makes it so good". Qb said "fan-fucking-tastic". Angel said "definetly the best episode". Tjaman said "emotionally stunning and brilliant". And Jd said "Joey, you are one twisted fuck". :lol:

This is Episode 4.

Episode 4- "A Common Ground"

Opening Scene- JD, Angelito and Natasja are arriving at Natalia's house. It looks much fancier than they would have guessed on the pay of a waitress.

Natalia- (opening door, showing them in- then she notices keys on the table) Mark is here. Interesting. Come in, come in. (motions at them seductively)
JD- Another Mark? (rolls eyes) Who is your Mark?
Natalia- He's a DJ. His DJ name is Shivkala.
Angelito- I know him. He DJ's "The Dez" sometimes.
Natasja- Yeah. (looking around) He plays too much techno though.
Natalia- He is a techhead. But he's a great fuck. Infact, we like to share our conquests together. I've been getting laid on that virgin rumour for awhile now.
JD- Me and Natasja are like that also.
Natasja- (teasing JD) Though I bring in the prospects more often.
JD- Well, my Natty, if I had a twat between my legs, I'd get more also. Plus, yours is so OPEN to the public.
Natasja- Well, JD, if you've seen one young boys dick, you've seen them all. They stick out- some more than others! My pussy is a personal place full of mystery and personality. A wonderland for people to explore and learn all the surprises it beholds.
Angelito- Yours is definelty a Disneyland with lots of tourists! (JD and Angelito laugh at the same time)
Natasja- Don't be laughing so hard. I could rip those twin towers apart with ease. And the two of you are FAR from 9 and 11.
Natalia- I love the way you guys verbally fuck each other. It makes my pussy wet. Anyone care to go to my room and see just how wet? (As she heads down the hall, she knocks on Shivkalas door three times- as if its a cue)

*They follow her to her room. When the door opens, they see a swing, a wall of whips and lots of sexy outfits and toys to play with.

Angelito- ¡Mierda santa! La mujer es un alambre conectado.
JD- Si, Si! (licks lips) ¡Gozaré esta noche que jode para venir durante mucho tiempo, Angelito.
Natajsa- This place fucking rocks! So, take out your dongs, Cheech and Chong!
Angelito- (stripping his clothes off immediately) So many things to try here, Sarmientos!
JD- (looking at Natalia) Yes there is, my dimwitted friend.

*Natasja pulls some rope out of the top drawer as if she knew where it was all along. Natalia smiles. She starts tying JD's hands behind his back. As Angelito stands frozen, Natasja ties him up too.

Natasja- Well, JD and Angelito, it seems I won the bet! I knew what was happening all night long. The three of us just wanted to spank those hot little brown asses so bad, I had to devise a plan to surprise you.
Angelito- The three of you?
*Shivkala walks into the room in a leather outfit, holding a paddle. Natalia clicks on the stereo to IntoThe Void by Nine Inch Nails starts playing. Natasja takes her heels and kicks them over to the bed. JD is smiling BIG and Angelito looks quite curious and a little afraid at once. Natalia walks over to them, asses up on the bed. She bends over and runs her tongue up Angelitos left buttock. She takes her palm and spanks JD's.
JD- Thank you, maam! May I have another?

*Shivkala walks over to the toy table. He grabs a twelve inch double head dildo and looks at Angelito. Angelito looks afraid! As he starts over, Natasja stops him and puts her mouth on it and deep throats it, taking it from his hands. They can see it travel down her throat. She takes it out.

Natasja- It just needed some lubrication. But, dont get too happy, boys, this ones for me and Natalia. (Natasja grabs a whip from the wall and walks over to spanks Angelitos ass hard)
Angelito- Oh yes! I'm a bad, bad boy, Natasja.
JD- But I've been a bad boy also! *Puts on pouty face

*Natalia walks over to Natasja and kisses her. Natasja wraps the whip around them. Shivkala walks over to them and lays them on the bed on top of JD and Angelito, asses up. Natasja and Natalia take their clothes off while on top of JD and Angelito.

Natasja- Bet you'd like to join us, wouldn't you? (running her nails up JD's back) Well, kiss each other for me and I'll let you. (strikes the whip against JD's ass)

*JD starts tongueing Angelito's ear. Angelito turns to him and darts his tongue across JD's lips, looking at Natalia. Natalia starts to suck on Natasja's breasts. Shivkala pulls Natalia over to him . She inverts her body up to his crotch, putting the pressure of her head into the small of Angelito's back. Shivkala undresses and starts to fuck her. Natasja turns JD and Angelito around. She goes down on JD and starts playing with Angelito. Now, Natalia and Shivkala are right beside of Angelito. Angelito starts to suck on Natalia's breasts. Natasja gets up and straddles JD's face.

Natasja- Show me how hungry you are for my most personal place, JD!
JD- Yes, Natty. *Jd begins to pleasure her.
Angelito- (turns to see JD licking Natasja) The things we do together, Sarmientos! (goes back to licking Natalia's body)
Shivkala- You get every inch of her boy!
Natalia- (looking up at Shivkala) Fuck me! Fuck me good!

*JD comes up and kisses Natasja and starts fucking her with Natasja on top.

JD- Oh, and one more thing, Natasja.
Natasja- What is that, JD?
JD- Shivkala is great with his fingers too.
Natasja- And how would you know that, JD?
JD- Because I knew him already. I won the bet, senorita.
Natasja- (surprised) Fuck me, twinkie dick!
JD- (laughs) This room smells of sex and death.
Natasja- Notice how those two things go together so often.
JD- Yes they do, my Natty.

*Natasja moans

***OPENING CREDITS ROLL To "Mad World".

-Scene opens as Ryan gets off the phone seeing Alex shot inside. Em comes outside, holding letter to see what the gunshot she heard was. And camera pans inside Lauryn's apartment.

Armaan- Everybody shut up! I think everyone needs to remember who is in control here.
Lauryn- (panicking over Alex) Oh my God! Alex, you can't be dead. (Holding him)
Jo- Armaan, what is wrong with you?
Armaan- NOTHING JO! Nothing at all. For once, everything is right. I think it's confession time. (getting louder as he talks) Infact, I know it's confession time. I'm tired of all the secrets going on in here. All the hypocrites. People better start telling me what I want to hear or so help me god I will kill as many people as I can with these last bullets. (looks around room, waving gun, as if deciding between people) I'd like for Jo to start. (Jo looks nervous, so does Wegie)
Hailies- Armaan, please. This isn't you. This isn't the Armaan I care about.
Armaan- YES IT IS, Hailies. This is what you don't seem to understand. Maybe if you'd pay attention to what is going on in your life instead of fucking all your time away, you'd have understood that sooner.
Hailies- I know a kinder Armaan. A wounded Armaan. (starts crying again)
Armaan- You know what? Fuck it, Jo. Hailies is going first. (Points gun at her) I got some questions for you and you best have some answers.
Hailies- (extremely distraught) Armaan, nothing good will come of this. You have already killed Alex, one of your best friends.
Armaan- (getting angrier) BEST FRIENDS? What the fuck? Are you that goddamn retarded?
Oba- (who goes to corner, pretending to play with his puzzle) Retard.
Hailies- We've all stuck together in here, Armaan.
Armaan- No. I don't think so. I don't particularly like that answer. Alex WAS NOT my friend and neither were you. You told me we were going to be together for a long time and yet EVERY TIME I turned my back, the two of you were getting closer and shoving me off to the side.
Hailies- That isn't true, Armaan. I promise you.
Wegie- Maybe we could all talk about it Armaan.
Armaan- (aiming gun at him) I don't remember asking you anythng, pervert!
Lauryn- Armaan, this has gone too far. (voice cracking in sadness)
Armaan- NO IT HASN'T LAURYN! Don't you know what kind of place you're running here? (screams) Don't you know you are a fucking patsy! We alll been fucking and drinking in that room back there. From as little attention as you've paid to any of us lately, I am not surprised you dont know. (points gun at Hailies) First, you got the trash can whore over here. And I am sorry but I dont care how many times you were sexually abused, you need to take some responisbility for your actions. You use people. (screaming) YOU'RE A USER!! (Harley Quinn is crying louder) I'd hate to think my self-esteem would get so low, I'd let people do to me what you let them do to you. (more wounded) And most of all, I wouldn't tell people I love them so casually and then fuck Alex until you're pregnant with his fucking baby.
Lauryn- Oh my God!

*Hailies starts bawling.

Armaan- YOU are not mother material, Hailies. You're just like your Mom. That baby will be so lucky to get a trash can and never have to look at you again.
Jo- Armaan, please stop.
Armaan- Oh we'll get to you, Jo. I'm not done with Hailies yet.
Hailies- Please, Armaan. Can't things go back to how they were?
Armaan- NO, HAILIES! This is not a fantasy world. Things are as they are and what's done is done.
Hailies- (accusingly, through tears) You killed Alex! You killed the one who held you when you cried at the funeral.
Armaan- (extremely loud) Don't you think I KNOW THAT??
Hailies- Just kill me if you want to kill something so badly. Leave them alone please! You are obviously mad at me. Just take me.
Armaan- Oh, Hailies. I am mad at everyone in this room and they need to hear about it.
Hailies- This is all happening because we're all fucked up, Armaan. I know I'm fucked up. I don't know why I do it. (wiping tears) I really don't. I just love you guys so much and I don't know any other way to tell you and (remembering again mid sentence) now Alex is gone! (begins to scream) ALEX'S BRAINS ARE ON THE FLOOR, ARMAAN! STOP IT!
Lauryn- (clutching Alex, picking up the stray brain particles) I'll never get them back in!
Armaan- (delayed) WELL YOURS COULD BE THERE TOO, BITCH!
Hailies- (screaming back) Well DO IT THEN! DO IT, YOU BIG FUCKING PUSSY! DO IT!
Lauryn- Calm down, guys. Calm down. (lost look in her eyes)
Armaan- (calming slightly) You aren't getting off that easy. I know why you're really here. You told me.
Hailies- Shut up, Armaan.
Armaan- Maybe I can't.
Hailies- Armaan, stop. Please.
Armaan- Tell me then. Whose baby is it? Mine or his? I know you know. I think its his but I want to hear it from your lips. TELL ME!
Hailies- Armaan, why are you doing this?

*Wegie and Jo are eyeing things in the room as if looking for something to stop him.

Armaan- I have got to know! Right here and Right now! Whose is it?
Hailies- (thinking for a moment about what she should do) Umm. (Harley Quinns cry is getting deafening.)
Armaan- (walking over toward Harley Quinn) You hear that, Hailies? That is the sound of your baby too. Before its lips ever form, that baby is doomed with a whore for a mother.

*Ryan sees from outside he is approaching Harley Quinn. He has no choice and bursts in the door. Armaan looks surprised and shoots at Ryan aiming for his stomach. It hits Ryan in the side. Lauryn screams! Wegie tries to intervene and Armaan knocks him across the face with the butt of the gun and knocks Wegie unconscious.

Armaan- GET A HOLD OF YOURSELVES! I will kill everyone in this room.

*Lauryn grabs Ryan and starts putting pressure on his wound, her emotions tore all to pieces. Hailies has stopped crying and looks numb.

Armaan- Now, you see what happens when people try to stop me. (looks at Jo and Hailies- Oba seems unaffected) SO DONT TRY! Now- Hailies- where were we? You were about to tell me whose baby is in your stomach.
Ryan- (softly to Lauryn)- I'm losing blood. lauryn. I think I am going to pass out. If I do, please protect my daughter for me.
Lauryn-(softly) Ryan, you cant pass out! It's too dangerous.
Ryan- If I die, would you take Harley from Kimmy? I dont want Harley growing up alone with her.
Lauryn- You are going to pull through this, Ryan. We all will.
Hailies- (reluctantly) I think it is yours, Armaan.
Armaan- Mine , huh? ARE YOU SURE?
Hailies- (crying again) Yes, Armaan.
Armaan- (looking at Alex's body) Well maybe I dont want it. Maybe I don't think you should be a mother.
Hailies- Armaan, please stop all this. I beg you.
Lauryn- (shaking Ryan) Dont go to sleep, Ryan! (Ryan passes out, still breathing) Oh God! Please make it through. (pleading at Armaan) Please let us go, Armaan. Noones going to hurt you.
Armaan- Too late for that, Lauryn. Take a good look around this room. This is ALL your fault. And don't you ever forget it. (Kicks Wegie a few times while hes passed out) I think Hailies needs to promise she'll abort this baby..if I dont do it tonight myself.
Jo- Armaan, I think it's my turn. Give it to me. Stop picking on Hailies. You are being disgusting.
Armaan- (angrily at Jo) DISGUSTING? Disgusting?? You are the disgusting one, Jo. Why don't you tell Lauryn what you've been doing with her brother?
Jo- Shut up, Armaan.
Armaan- No I wont! (Lauryn looks up, confused.)
Jo- Stop it. You have no idea what you are talking about.
Armaan- Didn't you know? Your brother has been fucking her for awhile now. He's a fucking pervert. I see the way he looks at her and you know she's underage..and she's fucking the neighbors too.
Jo- I am 17, Armaan, and I know exactly what I am doing.
Armaan- So you ARE admitting it?

*Lauryn looks at Jo, surprised, still red-eyed from crying

Jo- Maybe I am. Maybe I'm not. I am only saying that my age doesn't factor into my life. Why don't you put the gun away, Armaan?
Armaan- Why dont you go fuck yourself, Jo? You never liked me from day one and you know it and you have went out of your way to be unpleasant to me.
Jo- Armaan, everything I have ever said to you has been true.
Armaan- That's all you ever could do was lie, Jo! You and Weg have surely pulled off a good one.
Jo- Armaan, you have truly went off the deep end. It's not too late. We could still save you.
Armaan- (even angrier) STOP THIS SAVING TALK! This bullshit talk! I am the only saviour here. The quicker you figure that out, the better chance you may live.
**Outside Em, Greta and Adam have walked outside wondering where the shots came from. Amaruiel has walked outside also. Amauriel walks over to Greta.
Amauriel- What the hell was that?
Greta- There is shouting going on inside Lauryn's apartment.
Em- That is also where the gun shots came from. Something horrible is going on in there. Everyone is screaming and the baby is bawling.
Amauriel- What should we do?
Em- I have already called the cops and they said Ryan called before yet we don't see him here. (To Amauriel) Did you get the same letter we did, Amauriel?
Amauriel- (uncomfortably) Yes I did.
Greta- This is happening in a few hours and I have barely had any sleep.
Em- (looks at Adam) I bet.
Adam- Doing what I do, I've heard more than a few gunshots delivering in certain neighborhoods.
**Lin stumbles outside with a young girl behind her the rest do not recognize.
Lin- (drunken) What the fuck is going on out here?
Greta- We are all trying to figure that out, Lin. Somethings happening in Lauryn's apartment and the cops are on the way.
Em- (looks at Tish) Who is this?
Lin- This is my sister, Tish. I'd tell you what she's doing here but I am far too fucked up to know right now. (looks at her) Knowing her, there must be a good reason she came to see me.
Tish- (approaching Em) What a great intro, Lin. I am Lin's sister, Tish. I will accept any apologies anyone offers now.
Em- (to Tish) I am definetly sorry for you.
Lin- Shut it,Em.
Tish- So, what kind of people are in that apartment?
Greta- (concerned) Young ones!
**Captain Tracker pulls up as Auntie is coming outside. Behind him are two more police cars. Auntie approaches Captain Tracker as he is getting out of his car. Auntie gives a stare to Em, Greta, Amauriel, Adam and Tish.
Auntie- Took you motherfuckers long enough. Was there a line at Krispy Kreme?
Captain Tracker- No time for this right now. How many people are in the apartment?
Auntie- Ask who made the damn call first.
Captain Tracker- That would have been a Ryan.
Auntie- I dont see him over there.
Captain Tracker- (On megaphone) Captain Tracker outside. Let the hostages go. It's only gonna be a matter of time. Make it easier on yourself.
Auntie- Noone ever buys that shit.
Amauriel- (To Captain Tracker) There are alot of teenagers in there, sir.
Auntie-Thank you, Amauriel. I think we have it covered.
*France starts to pull in to the complex. Sassy is following her. Noticing where they are going, she starts blinking her lights at France. France notices the cop cars and Sassy's blinking and stops the car. She gets out and goes back to Sassy's car.
France- I guess you see the cop cars too. Can't say I blame you not wanting to come over.
Sassy- I will meet Phi sometime. It just looks a little too crazy in there for me to handle right now. I think I had one too many cappucinos.
France- Well, I just wanted to say I did have a wonderful time. I didn't think I would. I was all but pulled into doing this but you know what (pause) I'm glad I came.
Sassy- Me too. (growing more nervous Auntie may see her) You're a pretty rockin gal, France.
France- Aint so bad yourself. When can we meet again?
Sassy- Wanna have lunch?
France- I actually have this thing I have to do tomorrow afternoon. (distracted with the cars) Maybe tomorrow night. I should probably get over there and see what's going on.
Sassy- Of course. Well, you have my number. Just give me a ring. I'm usually home. And even if I'm working on someone, I keep my cell close.
France- (leans in and kisses her) Thanks, Sassy. We all need some pleasant surprises.
Sassy- (in a self-deprecating way) Some more than others. (laughs)
France- Take care. I'll call you tomorrow night.
*France gets back in the car, headed toward the complex. Sassy U-turns and speeds out. She passes Ben pulling in. Ben notices the cop cars and turns around and leaves again. As his truck turns and leaves, you see a large garbage bag tied down in the back. An ambulance pulls in as he leaves.
Back in the apartment, Hailies is a mess and everyone looks quite desperate. Harley Quinn is still crying. Wegie and Ryan are still passed out.
Lauryn- Please, Armaan. Let them take Ryan, Wegie and Alex. I know you dont want Ryan and Wegie to die. It will be that much harder on you later, honey.
Armaan- NO! Nobody leaves here until I am satisfied with these confessions. And it's your turn, Lauryn. (holds gun toward her, finger on trigger) Why the hell are you really here? I know why Hailies is and she said you have a reason too. What is it?
Lauryn- (worried) Armaan, I really don't know what you are talking about. Please, listen to me. You have got to stop this or you'll be locked up for a long time.
Armaan- I don't think ANYONE HERE understands I have the power. I DO- FOR ONCE! The less you talk, the angrier I am going to get. And DONT FUCKING LIE TO ME, LAURYN! I am tired of your lies. I want some truth. The things you haven't told us. Right here, Right now. Or you die!
Jo- Armaan, wont you leave her alone?
Oba- Does anyone want to play jacks with me?
Armaan- SHUT UP OBA!
Lauryn- Armaan, you're going to cause everyone in here more damage than they have all already faced. Aren't you tired of all the pain? (pleading) Please let us all go.
*Captain Tracker calls again for a surrender.
Armaan- Just answer the fucking question, Lauryn.
Lauryn- I don't understand the question, Armaan.
*Armaan aims his gun at Wegie and shoots him in the back of the head. Everyone screams. Lauryn screams "NO!". Blood comes pouring out of Wegie's head. His left eye comes out as the bullet traveled through. Armaan looks a little shocked he done this again and quickly regains composure. Oba finally looks visibly frightened, pretends hes just scared and gets in fetal position.
Armaan- SO..you gonna talk or not goddammit! I'll kill the baby next!! (aims it at the baby)
Lauryn- (through tears) Alright! Alright, Armaan. I will talk. Just please don't shoot anyone else.
Hailies- Please god! No more. No more. (Starts hugging Alex's corpse)
*Hell and Garrett are returning from a walk, coming through the trees in the back entrance.
Garrett- I guess we can't find Liv tonight. She'll turn up I'm sure.
*Hell notices the cop car lights from over the building. They hear the megaphone "Please whomever is inside, please let Lauryn and everyone in the apartment go. We are going to go to other measures. We cant have any more shots.".
Garrett- Holy fuck! What the hell is going on?
Hell- I don't know but I can't be seen by no cops, Garrett. What do we do?
Garrett- Someone has went off in my apartment. I can't have Lauryn or any of the rest of them get hurt.
Hell- I bet it's that crazy Ben fucker. There is blood in his apartment, Garrett. I think he's killing people. What do we do?
Garrett- You need to go back out and lay low until this is over. I gotta go try to do something.
Hell- (grabbing him) NO! What if you get hurt?
Garrett- (kisses her deep) I'll be alright. I'm self-resilient. Now, go. Before they start heading over this way. I'm going to go through the back entrance. (He sees a flashlight coming from other side as if someone is coming around back) You gotta go NOW Helen! Run!
Hell- I can't leave you.
Garrett- I'll be alright dammit. NOW JUST GO!
*Hell reluctantly runs off and Garrett heads for the back window where his room is. He gets the key he put in the bushes and lightly slides the window up and crawls in as a cop is rounding the corner. Garrett is inside his room and hears the screaming from the living room.
In the living room:
Armaan- Now that wasn't so fucking bad was it? (pause) NOW tell me the real fucking story RIGHT NOW or I will end this childs life. (points the gun at Harley Quinn, looking in her eyes) No child needs to stick around for this world. It is a bleak, judging place where any hope a young mind can muster is shattered and ripped from their soul until there is nothing left. This child would be just as well to go right now.
Lauryn- OK! OK! Armaan, What else do we want me to say? I told you why I am here.
Armaan- Bullshit, Lauryn! You don't care about any of us.
Lauryn- Are you kidding Armaan? I would give my life if it would heal you right now and stop you from making this huge mistake. You have just killed two people very dear to me and possibly another. I would much rather you just killed me instead. (stands up) Just get the rest of your anger out. It's me you really want to hurt. (gets very serious) Don't hurt anyone else in this place. I am walking over toward you in just a moment. I am going to try to take that gun..
Armaan- (interruprting) Fuck you will!
Lauryn- You're going to have a choice (takes small steps) Armaan. Either shoot me or end this here and now and I will do everything to make sure your time is shorter than it should be. (walking closer as Hailies bites her hand) This has got to stop, Armaan.
Armaan- (backing up) BACK UP LAURYN! I will kill you and the baby.
Lauryn- I'm afraid I can't do that!
*Armaan aims the gun in the direction of her heart. He puts his finger back on the trigger as Lauryn walks closer.
Armaan- I warned you. Goodbye Lauryn. (almost cries)
*Garrett comes up behind and hits Armaan in the head with his Playstation. Armaan drops the gun and falls. Hailies screams and runs for the door, screaming for the cops. The cops storm in, ambulance behind. Captain Tracker grabs Armaan and takes him off. Lauryn falls to the ground, crying. Jo goes over and hugs Garrett tight. Oba sits up and looks relieved he is still alive.
*Outside, Ayn, Grace, Kaitlyn and Ashley all pull in at once and see the commotion.
Ayn- (inside car and driving) Oh my God! I hope Lauryn is alright.
Ashley- Jesus Christ! (car pulls up) What's going on around here?
*In the parking lot as they are carrying the bodies out, we see Mark, Marcus, Vik and Rach are in the parking lot, back from date.
Marcus- (to Rach) I think you see why we need to cut the date short.
Rach- Obviously, Marcus. I am so sorry. Regardless, I had a good time tonight.
*Vik is consoling Mark.
Marcus- I hope we can do it again. (looks around) Without this part.
Rach- I hope so. (hugs Marcus)
*Ashley runs up to Mark and Vik.
Ashley- Oh my God! What happened?
France- (off to the side) We're still trying to figure it out.
Mark- When is it all going to end, Ashley? I don't know how much more I can take.
Ashley- (hugs him tight) I don't know, Mark. I don't know how much more I can take either.
Vik- (To Rach) Maybe we should go. We'll leave you guys to each other unless you need us. I'll be glad to stay.
Marcus- No. You guys go on ahead. We'll be alright. Not the first drama we've had here.
*As Captain Tracker takes Armaan outside, he comes to and starts biting his arm. Captain Tracker hits him with the stick. He keeps biting like a rabid dog. Camera pans to Auntie watching this very intently with a certain twinkle in her eye.
Armaan- FUCK YOU ALL! Fuck this HELL we are living in!
Captain Tracker- BE QUIET! *Puts Armaan in the backseat with much struggle from Armaan.
*The ambulance takes Wegie and Alex off. Jo is crying and Hailies is inconsolable. They take Ryan off, hooked to a breathing machine. Lauryn gets in the back with him.
Lauryn- (to Jo) I'll see you guys at the hospital. Don't worry. It's over. (to Em) Can you watch Harley Quinn until Kimmy gets back?
Em- Of course, Lauryn.
Greta- It's going to be alright, Lauryn, I promise. (Adam tries to hold her, she resists in crowd.)
Lauryn- (to Jo and Hailies) Greta's right. It's going to be OK.
Jo- It will never be over, Lauryn.
Hailies- Not today, Tomorrow. Or ever again.
Auntie- ( making her way to back of ambulance and says loudly so all hear) This doesn't change anything about this morning, everyone. (to lauryn) Take care of Ryan. We need him.
Lauryn- Goodbye. (sees Garrett) Garrett, sweetheart, would you come with me?
Garrett- I'm here for you, Lauryn. (gets in the ambulance)
Lauryn- (hugs him tight) You saved our lives.
*Lauryn's eyes lock with Auntie's as ambulance doors close.

Pt. 2

*The next morning, JD, Angelito and Natasja wake up together in Natalia's bed. Her and Shivkala are not there. They hear bacon frying in the kitchen.
Angelito- Goddamn! (yawns) My body is worn the fuck out.
JD- You never did have stamina.
Angelito- Fuck you, Sarmientos! I'm still cuter.
JD- In what universe, Menudo?
Angelito- Go back to the border, puta!
Natasja- It's too fucking early for you jackoffs.
Angelito- Bacon smells tasty.
JD- I don't eat animals. Should've told them.
Angelito- (grabbing his crotch) Could've fooled me!
Natasja- I don't give a shit what they are cooking. I am fucking hungry.
JD- Maybe they'll have some fruit.
Natasja- (getting off the bed) Oh, theres plenty of fruit here. (laughs to self)
JD- Fruit is good for your body, senorita. *Pinches her ass
Natasja- (looks at the two of them naked on the bed) Could've fooled me! (winks)
*As Natasja walks down the hallway, she sees a picture on the wall of Natalia, Shivkala and two older people smiling. She looks at it closer, wondering if its a family photo and rolls her eyes, entering kitchen.
Natalia- Good morning. Thought I'd make us all some breakfast.
Natasja- Do you do this for every trick you pull into your virgin lies?
Natalia- No. You're special.
Shivkala- How do you like your eggs? (frying them in the pan)
Natasja- (smiling) Unfertilized.
Natalia- We're making pancakes, bacon and eggs.
Natasja- Well, what a happy family we are. Maybe we can have a potato sack fuck later? (Shivkala flinches)
Natalia- I like you guys. I hope we can all hang out more often.
Natasja- Interesting you'd say that. I actually wanted to talk to you guys about something before Beavis and Butthead come strolling in.
Natalia- What's that?
Natasja- Well yesterday was sort of a shit day for me you could say. I didn't want to spoil anyones night last night with it.
Shivkala- Scrambled, okay?
Natasja- Sure. I'll eat whatever you put in front of me this morning. My parents will never know. (rolls eyes)
Natalia- Don't I know it. (smiles)
Natasja- Well, lets just say that AS OF Monday, I have no place to live. My fucking roommate kicked me out. WHY? you might ask. Because I didn't fucking appreciate a crackhead barging into my room in the middle of the night while I slept. All her fucking friends were crackheads. The only crack I like isn't one you smoke.
Shivkala- That sucks.
*JD and Angelito start down hall, stops when he hears Natasja talking.
Natasja- Yes it does suck. I was wondering if maybe if I paid you guys a months rent, you'd let me hang around a month. I can promise some extra payment too in the form of fucking. (smiles) My brother will be back from Cairo next month and I know I could stay with him after. I just need a place until then.
Natalia- It would be alright with me.
Shivkala- Sure. Why not? (with wicked grin) It's always good to have another person around.
*JD and Angelito walk in. JD looks a little upset but doesn't say anything.
Angelito- This food smells fucking awesome.
JD- No. You are just still smelling the sweet fragrance of my crotch across your lips.
Angelito- Whatever, Cinderfella. I'm starving.
Shivkala- Well, pull up a chair.
JD- Do you have any fruit or a bagel? Big breakfasts just aren't my thing.
Natalia- I have some grapefruit.
JD- That'll work I guess. (rolls eyes)
Angelito- (checking cell) Dude, my fucking cell has ten fucking messages from Jo. She can't get enough of me. (laughs)
JD- She'll learn. (checks his cell) Looks like Hell wants to talk to me too. (smiles)
*Angelito walks to the bedroom, dialing her up.
JD- (to Natasja) So how are things with your roommate lately?
Natasja- Same fucking shit. Different day. What can you do?
JD- Yeah. (reluctantly starts eating his grapefruit)

***Meanwhile, Glenn and Shawn are eating breakfast in the cafeteria of the hospital.

Shawn- I must say I'm glad you wanted to see me again so soon.
Glenn- Well, I did have fun talking yesterday. Most fun I have had in a while. (visibly shaky)
Shawn- Is anything wrong, Glenn?
Glenn- It was just a long night.
Shawn- What did you do?
Glenn- I'd rather not talk about that. Let's talk about you. Last time you were telling me you were going to pursue your juggling.
Shawn- Nah. Not really. Not much you can do with juggling. I dont like the circus. Elephants always gave me a fright.
Glenn- Well, surely, in these days of "Jackass" and other shows like that, there has to be a market somehwere.
Shawn- Maybe if I juggled naked while shooting a cannon at my arse. (laughs)
Glenn- I'd watch that.
Shawn- I wouldn't.
Glenn- So, why do elephants frighten you?
Shawn- It's silly really. They're just so friggin tall and large. Stomp you to death. My mum took me to see one when I was little and I didn't appreciate it none too much. Cried like a girlie boy infact.
Glenn- There are much more frightening things in my experience.
Shawn- It was alright when I saw the juggler though. (thinking back in his gaze) When I saw him step up there, all lights on him, every eye focused on his hands and whatever their capabilities were. He took out two knives and began juggling. It all looked so easy. Then came a third. And a fourth. My heart was racing in my chest, wondering how one man could juggle that many things. Everything else in there disappeared. Then five, six, seven. I thought for sure his goose was cooked. My mum and dad could never handle that many things at once. Eight, nine. I almost wanted to close my eyes. I was so afraid he wouldn't make it. I was in love with him at that moment. The thought of one of those knives stabbing his lovely pale flesh scared me more than anything thus far in my life. (takes a drink of tea) But he kept them up there. Before I knew it, he was through. Didn't lose one of them. (misty eyed) He was my hero.
*Glenn sees Nurse Jessica go through the lunchline smiling wickedly at him.
Glenn- (grabs Shawns hand) Do you want to do something outside of here?
Shawn- (coming to again) My sister would have a shit fit if I left for too long.
Glenn- She's gotta sleep sometime right?
Shawn- You'd think. The bitch wont give anyone peace..least of all herself or me. I do love her though. I just love calling her a bitch as well. (laughs)
Glenn- Just for a little while. Maybe just down to the pond and we could feed the ducks or something. Hour tops.
Shawn- (thinking it over) I dont know.
Glenn- Please! I need to get out of here and I need you to come with me..just for a little while.
Shawn- I suppose she will be making a fuss whether I come now or later. Hour tops?
Glenn- (smiling) Promise.

***MEANWHILE Greta, Em, France, Lin and Tish are talking on Greta's couch, having coffee and tea.

Em- So now that you're alone without Adam, tell me what you were thinking, girl?
Greta- I was thinking I need someone here tonight. I didn't feel safe. Imagine that. Adam is a sweetheart.
Em- And you're going to break his little pizza roll heart in two.
Greta- I know what I'm doing, Em. Don't play the mommy card this morning.
Em- I'm just trying to save you a guilt trip.
Greta- And how is that, Em? We ALL did it. Not just me. We chose to take that boys virginity and with that, we took on a responsibility.
Em- Says who?
Greta- Says what is RIGHT. I don't exactly know what I am doing but I am going to make this as clean a break as possible. He deserves that. I am hoping he finds some other tramp and forgets about me. That is what I'd prefer.
Em- And how do you know he will? His feelings may just progressively increase.
Greta- Well, Em, that's a chance I am willing to take. (trying to change subject, looking at France) So how was your date, France?
France- It wasn't bad. Quite surprising actually. She was laid back and funny. Really funny. It was just what I needed. And of course that is why I came home to Waco.
Lin- I'm glad you're getting back out there.
Greta- I am too, France. You truly need someone. (France looks at her and looks away again)
France- So, Tish, it's been awhile. I am sure we'd all love to hear about big bad Chicago.
Tish- It's still the same place. An empty vessel of soulless scum.
France- Well, tell us what you really think.
Tish- I just needed to get away for a little while. And my sister has never let me down when I needed that time.
Lin- I'm just sorry you saw me come in so wasted and then we had (not wanting to talk about it) that incident outside.
Greta- I think we've all talked enough about that for one morning.
Em- I think we all know there are even more pressing issues this morning. Such as that meeting.
France- I don't know what the hell to think about that? Did you see her up close? She looked as if she was almost happy at what was going on outside.
Lin- (interrupting) Tish, maybe you wanna go get you a shower and wash last night off of you.
Tish- Well, I guess I can take a hint. Though I must admit a shower nozzle could be my best friend this morning.
France- Yeah, he'd probably cheat on me. (laughs)
Tish- What?
Lin- Just get yourself a shower and I'll be over in a bit.
Tish- OK then. (gets up to leave) Bye girls. Why don't we all go out later?
Em- I don't think I could survive a night out after the events of this week. But we will, Tish.
Tish- Well, I'll catch you gals later. (leaves)
Lin- (to Em and France) I don't want Tish in on all of this. I thought I made that very clear.
France- She didn't know what we were talking about.
Lin- You underestimate her France.
Em- Well, I think we all need to be talking about it. It's damn near close to happening. This crazy bitch may make a whole new fucking ballgame that none of us are prepared for.
Greta- Did you see the way she handled that captain? She is quite the prescence.
France- Quite the bitter old bitch you mean. I know those types. Reminds me of more than one ex. (after moment) And reminds me what terrible taste in women I have.
Greta- We shouldn't overreact until we know all the cards.
France- I hate to say it but I may end up missing James before its over. Did you see how smug her letter was? She knows she's got the power. And I just know she's gonna exploit it. Probably worse than James.
Lin- Well, whatever the case is, whats important is we have each other. AND we distance Tish from this completely.
Em- We will.
*They all nod in agreement.

***MEANWHILE Ben is knocking on the door of Dezzies house. She answers the door in her robe.
Dezzie- Ben, I told you you can't come here anymore.
Ben- I just wanted an early cap. Was hoping for someone to talk to.
Dezzie- (noticing mud on his hands) Where have you been last night?
Ben- Nowhere.
Dezzie- You left in such a haste. Hila did not look happy.
Ben- She is just someone who doesn't enjoy the truth. Nothing more. Nothing less.
Dezzie- Ben, I told you a long time ago we couldn't hang out anymore. At the bar, you're another one of my patrons and I'll take care of you. But this is my private living space. This isn't allowed.
Ben- Hila doesn't mean anything to me. But you do.
Dezzie- Ben. (reluctant) I thought you were over me.
Ben- What the mind tells itself and what the body does are two separate things.
Dezzie- Ben, my mind may tell me to let you inside darling but my body wont let me, Ben!
Ben- (a little angry) Fine then. (storms off) See you at the bar.
*Dezzie watches him go, a little afraid and relieved at once.

***MEANWHILE Mark, Marcus and Ashley are over at Amauriels with Ayn and Grace. Elm and Kimmy are still gone.
Marcus- So what do you guys think about this letter?
Grace- I can't think about that letter right now. I just see Alex's face getting zipped up in that bag. Two more are gone.
Ashley- It just brings back memories of Maia.
Amauriel- I'd rather not even discuss Maia.
Ayn- Some of us choose not to live in denial, Ama.
Amauriel- I am not doing this today, Ayn. PEOPLE DIED here today. Save it.
Ayn- Well WE were all talking Ama. Maia is a part of this too. Why the hell do you think we're talking about her?
Mark- I just wished we would've never met James.
Ashley- I'm still trying to figure out how to explain where everyone is going to Kaitlyn.
Marcus- She has got to already think something is up.
Ashley- Well I dont know about any of you but Kaitlyn doesn't need to know anything. (pause) We dont want another Maia on our hands.
Ayn- Kaitlyn is a smart gal. It isn't going to take her long. Don't you think it would sound better coming from one of us earlier on?
Ashley- (loudly at Ashley) NO I DONT! Nobody say anything to Kaitlyn. I swear to fucking god if someone goes running their mouth and causes Kaitlyn harm, they will pay dearly.
Ayn- Oh thats just great Ashley! Add to the Hate filling up this room already.
Ashley- I think you need some Midol, bitch!
Ayn- DON'T BE FUCKING TALKING TO ME LIKE THAT IN MY APARTMENT!
Grace- Stop Dammit! We all came over here because we want to be prepared for what Auntie may throw at us today. She is scaring the hell out of me. James was never outright. She has told us all that we are all here for the same reason in essence.
Mark- Who knew there were this many bad people in the world?
Ayn- It is NOT that we are bad people. We are good people caught in a bad situation.
Ashley- I agree with Mark. There are bad people all over this godforsaken complex. I am going home, figuring out what to do and I'll see you all when I see you there. (gets up and walks to the door and walks out)
Ayn- How do you live with her?
Marcus- Well it seems to me you have the shittiest attitude in this room. *Ayn sits up.
Grace- Fuck this! If we can't be productive around each other right now, lets separate. Because if one more person says something negative to Ayn, I'm going to go the fuck off.
*Marcus gets up and storms out. Mark goes chasing after him.
Amauriel- Way to clear a room, Ayn.
Ayn- Screw you, Ama! Screw you! (takes her ring off and flings it at him) I am through with you. Leave me the hell alone. (Runs to her room and slams the door)
Grace- Where in the fuck is Elm?
Amauriel- You know. I dont think I even care. If he shows up, fine. If not, fuck it. *Grace heads for her room, crying.
*Amauriel dials up Tjaman.
Tjaman- (seeing his arm holding the phone and his other hand grabbing a handful of worms) You have reached the Tjaman. What is it?
Amauriel- Tjaman, its Amauriel. I think I'd like to meet you about that deal. I'm not sure theres anything left here for me.
Tjaman- Good to hear, Ama. I could make you into a great success. More than you ever thought possible. (eats a handful of worms)
Amauriel- So then, I will meet up with you on Tuesday. How is that?
Tjaman- Sounds very good, my friend.

***MEANWHILE Armaan is being put in a jail cell. He looks over and sees a man on the top bunk sleeping. He takes a minute to study the room, stopping his tears every time they try to fall.
Captain Tracker- Welcome to reality, Armaan.
Armaan- Yeah. Whose reality?
Captain Tracker- Whose reality you ask? YOURS. You just murdered two people who cared very deeply about you. Now your freedom is gone, son. The word no longer exists for you. I don't know what you thought your reasons were but you will soon find they weren't good ones.
Armaan- That's what you think. But you dont know anything about what happened in there.
Captain Tracker- I know that two, possibly three, lives have ended today. (looks at him in judgement) And you should know that it is YOUR FAULT!
Armaan- You know NOTHING.
Captain Tracker- You may be right. I can't believe you're going to have a visitor in a few minutes.
*Armaan scowls.

***MEANWHILE Garrett is hugging Lauryn at the hosptial. waiting on the doctor.

Garrett- It's going to be alright Lauryn. Ryan will be fine I'm sure.
Lauryn- My brother is dead, Garrett. My brother is dead. Alex is dead. They always come in threes, Garrett. (sobbing)
Garrett- Not always. This one won't. (hugs her tight)
Lauryn- How are we supposed to make it now? How am I supposed to make that meeting? I can barely hold it together right now.
Garrett- We're going to make it, Lauryn. I promise. We'll let her say her peace and let the show move along. Then we will come home and figure out what then to do.
Lauryn- Wegie was going to bring someone new over today. (crying harder) Now he wont! He's gone. He's gone and I could've stopped it. (falls to pieces in Garretts arms)
Garrett- (pats her head) Lauryn, noone could've stopped Armaan. He was very intent on what he wanted to do.
Lauryn- (looks up at him) But you did. You stopped him. (hugs him tight)
Dr. Lee- (coming from room) Hi, Lauryn.
Lauryn- (jumping up from chair) IS HE ALRIGHT? Can we see him?
Dr. Lee- (after moment) He's going to be just fine. (smiles) You can see him now.
*Lauryn runs inside. Garrett walks off to the bathroom, goes inside and hits the wall so hard his knuckles bleed.

***MEANWHILE Auntie is fucking Nick in her bedroom. Her cell phone rings.

Auntie- (while on Nick) Yes, Arlene here. *At this point we hear her answers but not the voice on other line. All the while, Nick is still fucking her.
Nick- Oh, baby.
Auntie- (answering person on phone) Yes I am the landlady of Bundy Complex. (pause) Sure. (pause) I understand that. (gets off of Nick and starts jacking him off instead) That sounds like a difficult situation. No. No sir, I wouldn't want to be in that situation either. (Scribbles a name down on paper, Nick shoots and then she hands him a piece of paper) Well I am detained for awhile today. How about later this evening? (pause) Good. We still have Apt #6 available. Look forward to seeing you then. Bye Bye Now.
Nick- I still wish I could go with you. (cleaning himself off) I don't like that fucking mummy.
Auntie- Somebody has to watch The Mummy. I don't trust that fuckhole. In the meantime. I have some files I need to peruse again before my big show and there are a few errands to run as well. Time is precious, Nick. (stops in her tracks) DID YOU CUM IN ME?

***MEANWHILE QB is stting at the pool, holding his letters and looks as if he has been crying. He hears footsteps and turns around. He sees Liv walking back in. He looks confused. He approaches her.
QB- Liv, what are you doing outside?
Liv- I had to go for a walk. If I have to hear that two-faced bitch making out again, I'm going to throw up my guts.
QB- You know it isn't safe out here for you. There was a shootout tonight in Lauryns apartment.
Liv- (laughs) And you are surprised. That place is a timebomb!
QB- When did you lose your feeling, Liv? (a bit angry) When you got here, I saw a girl who was deeply troubled at her parents passing and just looking for a friend.
Liv- No, QB. What you saw was an actress looking for a stage.
QB- I don't belive that for a moment, Liv. (uncomfortable pause) I think you better get upstairs. Chaos has broken loose around here. Auntie is holding a meeting that the tenants are supposed to attend this morning.
Liv- Well I'm not technically a tenant.
QB- I heard Nick rambling on yesterday when he was trimming the hedges. I think Auntie knows very well whats going on.
Liv- I'm just glad that fatass is gone. It's about time a woman stepped up around here. They're all too busy falling over themselves to find a relationship. Relationships are as useless as Helen wearing a bra.
QB- Don't talk that way about Hell. That girl has been through alot.
Liv- Newsflash, QB! WE ALL HAVE! Won't you just take your mailbag and shove it up your ass? I know you hate me because I can fuck JD and you can't.
QB- I'll be goddamned. You know what you need, curly top? A spanking across your squirmy ass.
Liv- No thanks, Santa Clause, I dont want a faggot for Christmas.
QB- Well, ho ho ho. They get started younger and younger don't they?
Liv- And become more useless as they get older and uglier.
QB- You better get up those stairs, curly top. This faggot is starting to feel like singing.
Liv- Eat Shit, Santa Clause, if you can find room in that bowl full of jelly. Tell me, how long has it been since you've seen your dick?
QB- About as long as it takes for JD to forget you after each lousy shag.
Liv- It hurts to be an old faggot doesn't it? I can see it in your face. You know just how many candles are on your cake, Santa Clause, and how much of it you're going to stuff down your throat to forget.
QB- That's it! I refuse! You're bringing me down to this level and honey, I am way past that level! I can go to bed at night and relax knowing I never had a kid- especially one like you.
Liv- (laughs, walking away, turns once more) By the way, how cold and lonely is that bed?
*QB looks down at his bag as if disappointed in losing his temper. Camera pans over to "Caution" sign up on Lauryns front door.

***COMMERCIAL***

Pt 3

*Jo is at the local park, writing a letter. We watch over her shoulder.

Dear Lauryn,
I don't feel I can go on living here after the events of last night. I told Angelito I was leaving. I need you to tell the others. I am sorry for having an affair with Wegie behind your back. I know it wasn't easy taking care of me and the others. We have caused you alot of misery and alot of it we did on purpose. We're still kids after all. I feel you'll be just fine after some healing and maybe you can finally be with Ryan too. I know how much you want that. He'll pull through this and so will you. You have done quite alot for me and I will never forget it. I came to you a girl addicted to methodone at 15 and a couple years later I'm a woman who don't need drugs to fulfill her life. This is whats your fault- not what Armaan did. Take care of yourself and don't come looking for me. I am sending this letter in the mail to you and by the time you receive it, I will be long gone. Don't worry about me. I have a very reliable ride and I can make it on my own. I have a place to go. Now you just let me go. You have plenty more people left. Remember that. And that nice boy Eugene needs you too. Take him on and you'll have one more. You will need all the people you can for awhile. I love you.
All my thanks and respect
Jo
*She seals her letter up and walks over and drops it in the slot. She notices a young man on the swings. She sees it is Eugene. She walks over to him and gets on the swing beside him.
Jo- Hi. You trying to get lost too?
Eugene - Hi again. How is everyone?
Jo- (hesitates) Not so good, Eugene. You know Wegie is (pauses) not doing so well.
Eugene- Does this mean he won't come after me?
Jo- No. Someone will be here for you Eugene. I am sure of it. Bundy Complex may not be the best place we all dream of but Lauryn truly makes it feel like a home. A home for people who have lost theirs.
Eugene- I just want someone to love me. But not too much either. You know what I mean.
Jo- I think I do.
Eugene- (seeing her bags) You going somewhere?
Jo- Yes I am. I am moving on. It's time for me too. I got an opportunity today and I am going to latch onto it with both hands.
Eugene- Opportunites are rare. When you find them, you have to kidnap them and not let go.
Jo- (looks at the sun) Yes, Eugene. This I definetly know. (she notices he has a bag too)
*They start to swing.

**Meanwhile, JD and Angelito arrive at the Hilton Hotel.

Angelito- I wish we had more time to figure out what's going on here. I am not ready for this, JD!
JD- Well I don't think Auntie is going to wait to see who is ready.
Angelito- (about to break down and stops himself) I can't believe Alex is dead, Sarmientos! He was a good friend to me. (stops) So many times I would be going to sneak Jo out. He always helped me. And he was like the only one who would play my video games with me.
JD- Not those fucking video games again.
Angelito-- (louder) It may mean nothing to you, Juan, but it means alot to me. And my girl, Jo, is leaving today too. Won't even tell me where she is going and I don't have the time to look for her because we have to be here. DID THEY MEAN NOTHING TO YOU?
JD- No, they didn't Angelito. I don't have time to care. Look around us, man. You can't take to care around here or someones gonna stab you right in the back. It isn't worth it!
Angelito- Fuck You. It's worth it to me!
JD- You barely hung out with Alex. We both know damn well what's REALLY got you upset. (Angelitos brow raises) Don't feed me this other shit. And Jo was getting on your nerves. You said so yourself yesterday. Face it, Angelito. I am the best friend you have and this is why I can tell you this.
Angelito- It is much more than that, JD. This is all getting to me.
JD- Shake it off, Angel. We can't show weakness today. Above all else, we cannot show that.
*Ashley appraoches with Mark and Marcus. JD sneers at her.
Ashley- So, what made you crawl out of someone elses bed to grace us with your prescence JD?
JD- I had to come see a real closet case lesbian for myself. Got tired of watching Jodie Foster movies.
Ashley- Go to hell, JD. I am not in the mood.
JD- Like you ever are with a GUY?
Ashley- I don't see any guys here.
JD- I like being invisible to lesbians. I can watch them and not be seen.
Ashley- I'm going in.
JD- But you never came out yet, senorita. (smiles)
Marcus- Hey, leave Ashley alone this morning JD. Don't you think we have all been through enough?
Angelito- Well, maybe JD is trying to get a sense of humor going on around here. If not, we'll all be slitting our wrists soon.
Mark- Lets just go in.
Marcus- I understand that Angelito. I think we're all just experiencing another Maia this morning.
JD- You had to bring her up. I have told you again and again it is not my fault.
Marcus- Noone is laying blame here, JD. We're just surviving.
JD- I loved her too. I didn't want to see her get hurt.
Ashley- Let's just GO already.
JD- I have found lesbians to be quite impatient.
Ashley- Just come on, asshole. Someone else will have the spotlight today. Get over it.
Angelito- (laughes in spite of himself) Lets go, Sarmientos!
JD- Alright then.
**They enter. There is a woman at the front desk who seems very nervous.
Ashley- (as they pass) Don't worry. You're not the only one who's scared.
JD- (as he passes) Don't mind her. She's a closet case.
**We follow Mark inside. Inside the meeting room, we see Amauriel and Ayn on opposite sides. Grace is beside Ayn. Greta, Lin and France are sitting together, drinking. Em is holding Harley Quinn and watching after Oba. Hailies is in the corner staring into the ceiling. Ashley, Mark and Marcus sit down. JD and Angelito stare around the room. Angelito eyes Grace. JD goes over to the liquor and pours a shot of whiskey and downs it. He takes out his wallet, pulls out a picture of Alex and the gang at Lauryn's, touches it and puts it back into his wallet slowly, drinks another shot.
France- This place is so sterile and informal. I feel like some hobknob is going to come through the door and start giving us injections.
Greta- I wish we hadn't got here early. This wait is enough punishment.
Lin- I wish I didn't have to lie to Tish. What in the world am I going to do with her?
Greta- Best you can do is try and keep her out of harms way. That's all any of us can do.

Grace- You should talk to him, Ayn.
Ayn- Fuck him, Grace. It is over as far as I'm concerned. I am through. No more band, No more Amauriel in my bed.
Grace- You know we can't move out. (takes a drink)
Ayn- That doesn't matter. I just plan on ignoring his existence.
Grace- Yeah. Good luck with that!

**Ben walks into the room. All eyes go on him. He is dressed in his trench, with his hat covering his eyes. He tips it at Ayn and goes over to the alcohol.
JD- Oh, Ben. It's that sexy, creepy guy I stare at from time to time.
Ben- What the hell do they have here?
JD- Well, theres lot of things to swig down your throat here. What do you prefer Ben?
Ben- Something strong.
JD- Me too. (looks him up and down)
Ben- (grabs JD) Look, friend, I don't like to be watched so focus your eyes ELSEWHERE or I will do it for you and I can't promise they'll still be in your sockets.
JD- (eases off the surprise) I like force.
Ben- Then you'll like this. *shoves him across the room
Angelito- Hey, Puppetmaster, leave my friend alone. Go creep in the corner.
*Ben stares down Angelito, passes him eyes locked and goes to take a seat. Elm walks in behind him and goes over to Amauriel.
JD- (goes over to Angel) Angel was my hero. Angel likes me alot.
Angelito- Shut up Sarminetos!
JD- I'll lend you some of my dirty clothes you can sniff.
Angelito- You wish.
*Lauryn walks in with Garrett holding her. Her eyes are so red she almost looks brusied.
Greta- (stands up and runs to her, hugging her) Lauryn, I'm so sorry.
Lauryn- Thanks, Greta.
Greta- Is there anything I can do?
Lauryn- (sees Em has Harley Quinn still) You mean to tell me that bitch never came home yet? *Elm watches intently.
Greta- Can I get you a drink? Coffee? Liquor? Soda? Just tell me what you need.
Lauryn- I'll tell you what I'd like. For that bitch to walk through this door. I think I'd claw her face off of her.
Greta- Lauryn, honey, we can't make a scene here.
Garrett- I'll get you soemthing, Lauryn. (Goes off to the alcohol and makes her a rum and coke)
*Lauryn walks over to Em.
Lauryn Thanks, Em. I am sorry Kimmy hasn't been back by yet.
Em- I am wondering where that girl is. She has a world of upset to come back to.
Lauryn- If she isn't careful I might knock her goddamn lights out.
Em- Calm down Greta. Kimmy don't know what's going on yet obviously. Don't knock someone till you been in their shoes.
Lauryn- WHAT? That's the fucking problem, Em. I am in her shoes. She hasn't watched that child almost any this week. *Garrett hands her a drink.
Em- Just calm down.
Lauryn- (about to lose it) Ryan is all alone over there. BECAUSE I HAD TO COME HERE! My brother is dead. Alex is dead. GET OFF MY FUCKING CASE!!
Lin- (hugging her) We understand Lauryn. Let us help you sit down. *Lauryn starts crying again. Ayn gets up with Lin and Garrett to help her to a chair.
*Kimmy walks in the door, sees Harley Quinn and runs over to Em. Lauryn looks at her.
Kimmy- Where the hell is Ryan? Is he late?
Em- No, Kimmy. Ryan is in the hopsital.
Kimmy- The hospital?
Em- He was shot last night. There was a hostage situation in Lauryn's apartment.
Kimmy- SHOT? Is Harley OK?
Em- Harley is fine. I think the sound of the shots has made her nervous all night and day though. She hasn't slept much.
Lauryn- (screaming) RYAN IS FINE KIMMY!
Kimmy- Excuse me, Lauryn!
Lauryn- I said HES FINE! Don't you worry about it.
Lin- Lauryn, it will be alright.

**Auntie walks in the door. Everyone stops what they are doing, turns to look at her. Auntie is in a flashy red dress. She goes to the Hilton CD player system, takes a CD from her purse and puts it in. Mozart begins to play.
Auntie- Good morning, ladies, gentlemen (looks at Ben) and otherwise, so good of you to come this morning. (looks at Lauryn) I know some of you had other plans but it was quite good of you to take time out of your day to meet with me. I must say I will have to make this rather condensed and to the point. I have a new tenant to meet later this afternoon. Perhaps that may be a good place to start. There will be a new person moving into Apt. 6 later this afternoon. Lets say I would ask the same couteousy be paid to him as it is being paid to Kailtyn. *Ayn gets a knowing look on her face.
Amauriel- Can we ask questions?
Auntie- Thank you so much for that interruption, Amauriel. I will ask you to hold any and all questions until I tell you you may ask them. Now, anyone else have anything they'd like to interject before I continue? (looks around the room) Good then. (starts to walk around room) The first thing you all may be asking yourselves is why James left in such a haste. I'd like to answer that question for you one day but it seems there isn't a point. JAMES IS DEAD! *Some eyes raise. Oh, I assure you I didn't kill him sad as that may be. However, some smartass in this room did. All you can say is somebody doesn't want to be exposed evidently. (laughs) All of you share a common ground. You all FUCKED UP severely one way or the other. And this is your pennance. (after a moment) I must say some of James's methods were mostly effective. I mean he riled one of you up just enough to get him killed. Sloppy work as far as I can see. Though he disposed of a few people that he needed to, he was mostly a decent landlord. However, that time is GONE. This is a new era- The Auntie era. One of the best parts is me and James have quite a few differences. Patience is one of them. He had alot of it. I, however, do not have any. I don't take well to any answer other than "Yes, Auntie". Some might say I get around. (smiles) Well, this is true- just not in the exact way people assume. I have eyes everywhere you go. When you go to the hospital for a checkup (looks at Lauryn), When you go to your dentist for a cleaning (looks at Angelito), When you go to seek legal advice (looks at Ayn), When you go to the grocery store for more condoms (looks at Elm), When you feel the need to go to school (looks at Garrett), When you fuck other tenants in the privacy of a seedy motel (looks at Kimmy), When you go out for a drink at your favorite bar (looks at Ben who seems furious), When you go to mail a letter you shouldn't (looks at Ashley) or you simply go and support the coke habit noone knows you got back (looks at Em), I AM THERE! Everywhere you look my friends, Auntie will be there. Even if you muster up the foolish courage to play canary, I will be there! All you will be doing is confessing to me and I promise you I won't tell. Some of you may feel the urge to leave in the middle of the night (looks at France) or tell neighbors who needn't know our business too much (looks at JD) and then they will certainly die. The stress has seemed to become exhausting for some (looks at a sobbing Lauryn) and some are just too numb to care anymore (looks at Ben again). I suggest you SOAK IT UP and keep yourself together. Auntie isn't fond of weak people. Those are the ones she makes her lackeys. Glenn could tell you you don't want that. It seems some of you have likened yourselves to taking in stray runaways (stands over JD) and perhaps its for unselfish or very selfish reasons. The point is I like company. Though two young runaways named Helen and Liv may live with JD and hide away from their ultimate fate, I don't think there is any reason ANY of us should tell. Little girls, however, are emotional and they are sure to be caught. I am just giving you all a heads up to keep your mouth shut about them. Some of you get too many outsiders visiting you for my taste (looks sternly at Lin). However, I am not heartless. I know we all need something to keep us going. I just suggest you not try anything stupid. I know I would hate to lose my sister. (Lin looks especially nervous) You should all go about your regular lives- no matter how sinister some of those are. (laughs again) The important thing not to forget is you have Auntie to go to work for and Auntie to come home to. I will protect you. Just dont fuck with me! Auntie doesn't enjoy being fucked unless she wants to be. (twirls Marks hair as she walks by) You may have also gotten to know a certain flamboyant postman flapping about with his petty kindness. He has to pay the piper too so I wouldn't go asking him to play hero. He has just as much at stake as the rest of you. I am also a bit of a lazy Auntie from time to time. I don't like to socialize unless it's necessary. But there is the matter of my rent and not a day late it should ever be. I felt I needed a collector I could trust. Someone who needs me as much as I need them. Someone stern and with the upper hand. Someone not afraid to fire a gun if need be. I have been thinking this one over as I have went over your files again and again. I must say lots of interesting things all of you have done. Murder, Sexual Deviency, Parental Slaying, Mafia dealings, terribly naughty financial transactions, child murder and much much worse. I feel honored to know all of you. Every last one. Why even the person in the room who is desperately trying to hide their old identity. Amazing what the CIA can do. Anyway, children, I decided it is best to go with the young, impulsive ones with so much to lose. So I give you your new collector. *Goes and knocks on the door of the storage closet Here he comes. Fresh from murder and a quickly suspended jail sentence, Armaan! *Armaan steps out in a suit and tie. Lauryn gets an extremely angry, torn look on her face. Armaan will be collecting things for me when needed. I suggest that though some of you may harbor a bit of anger at my Armaan, he has been unfairly judged. I, myself, know that we all do things out of impulse. Don't we Greta? (Greta begins to cry) SO, I hope we are all on the same page regarding Armaan. We must also be on the same page with Kaitlyn. And dont forget Apt #6. His name is Wout. I recognize him as a sad little person watching me leave in a car with a body on a cold night. I would like him to believe I never saw that. If Apt #6 doesn't kill him, I could. So he should also be left in the dark. I'm afraid Jo has to go. She is the last impulsive kid in your wicked bunch, Lauryn. You have failed so miserably.
Greta- Won't you leave her alone, Auntie?
Auntie- Greta, I may have to have a private word with you when this meeting is over. DO NOT interrupt me again. As I was saying, Jo needs to be shipped off. I am not comfortable with her prescence. Have her gone before nightfall and I won't have to slit her throat. I would, however, like you to keep up appearances, Lauryn. I would like to see a new troubled teen completely unattached to everything as Jo once was. And I want it soon. Grieve on your own time. There is work to be done. Knowing what I do of your brother, it was no great loss to humanity. (takes a shot of whiskey) I think this about covers it for now. Hopefully, I won't have to remind you all too often. I also trust someone will fill poor Ryan in provided he survives. Now- any questions for me? (smiles)
Lin- May we go now? (very angry)
Auntie- Thank God! I thought I explained myself rather clearly.
*Armaan stares down Lauryn with a sinister glare.
Auntie- Hope you enjoyed the alcohol, everyone. Feel free to have another shot as you leave. Not that we haven't had enough shots lately? (stares at a broken Lauryn) And Greta, darling, you should hang back a moment. (smiles wickedly)
Em- (To Greta)- Just do what she says. Hurry home. I am going to be worried out of my mind.
*Everyone begins to leave, numb looks upon their faces. Garrett clings close to Lauryn. Lauryn won't even make contact with Kimmy. As everyone clears the room, Auntie approaches Greta.
Auntie- Hello, Greta. Nice to have a more personal introduction. I must say there are alot of things that pisses Auntie off. However, there is one thing that pisses Auntie off far worse than anything else. That is when I am interrupted. (slaps her across the face with her ring scratching Gretas left cheek) There is a body in Massachusetts that has your name ALL OVER IT Greta and I suggest you learn your place because you are talking to Satan, bitch. AND DONT YOU EVER FORGET IT!
Greta- (choking the words out) Yes, Auntie.
Auntie- (calming down) That's what I like to hear. Now go home.
*Greta walks out nervous and trying to hold back her anger.
Auntie- (to Armaan) Now, who'd like me to get them the latest Hustler magazine?
Armaan- Me! *Auntie hugs Armaan

Pt 4

*Liv and Hell come out of rooms at same time.
Liv- So did you have fun with your dork boy?
Hell- I'm not talking to you today. I am in no mood.
Liv- I heard you in there with him. Disgusting.
Hell- Jealous much?
Liv- Hardly. I know it won't last. As soon as he sees how pathetic you are, he'll drop you like everyone else does.
Hell- I think you have the roles reversed. It's you that nobody wants.
Liv- You know what? Fuck this.
* Liv grabs Hell by the hair and slams her into the wall. Hell balls up her fist and punches Liv in the nose. Liv kicks her in the shin and Hell falls. Hell comes up and bites Livs leg.
Liv- MOTHERFUCK!
Hell- You're going down, bitch!
*Hell headbutts her in the gut. Liv slams her arm down against Hell's back. Hell is catching breath. Liv takes a flower pot and breaks it over Hell's head. Hell takes a plug in air freshner out of the socket and comes up smashing Liv in the face with it. Liv kicks her in the boobs. Hell falls, doubling over herself. Liv walks up and pulls her up by the hair. Hell back kicks directly into Liv's crotch! Liv falls backward and hits the ground, out of breath, holding her crotch. Hell gets up and spits at her and goes to her room, slams and locks the door. Liv gets up and starts kicking at Helens door. Hell walks out with a pencil sharpener and smacks her in the face with it. Liv gouges at Hells eyes. Hell screams and kicks Liv in the gut. Liv falls against the wall. Liv throws the pot back at Hell and knocks her backwards. Both girls sit on the floor, gathering breath. They stare at each other, tired.
Liv- Fuck you, you slant-eyed cunt.
Hell- Fuck you too, you shitfaced hick!
*Hell closes her door. Liv stomps back to hers.

***MEANWHILE Ben walks into "The Dez". Dezzie sighs as he walks over.
Dezzie- What can I get you Ben? It's awfully early.
Ben- Straight whiskey. I won't bother you.
Dezzie- Ben, you are not bothering me. You just can't come by my house like you did this morning.
Ben- It won't happen again.
Dezzie- (reluctantly, pouring his whiskey) You will always hold a place in my heart, Ben. But you know we can't do this anymore. I can't handle your lifestyle. I have never been more frightened in my life than the two months we lived together. I won't go through it again. I told you I am glad to be your bartender but that is where it ends. (gives him the drink)
Jim- (coming over from other side of bar as Dezzie looks worried) Hello again Ben. I think me and you got off on the wrong foot. It seems no matter what time I come in here to try and avoid you, you are always here. We have to co-exist. I would like to be the first to offer my apologies. (extends hand)
Ben- (looks at him with eyes growing large and vacant) I won't fuck wth you but leave me alone, son, or I might!
Jim- No problem here. Enjoy your drink and I'll enjoy mine. (steps off and goes back to his side of the bar)
Dezzie- How was your day, Ben?
Ben- (finishes drink) Just keep the whiskey coming.
Dezzie- Fine. (pours another)
**Glenn walks in, goes up to the bar.
Glenn- Hi there. Can I get a vodka straight.
Dezzie- Coming right up, honey. Are you alright?
Glenn- As good as can be expected I guesss.
Dezzie- I think that's everybody nowadays. (pours his drink)
Ben- (approaching) Glenn, isn't it?
Glenn- (taken aback) Yes..and you are?

***MEANWHILE Kaitlyn is in the pool as Ashley, Mark and Marcus are first to arrive back. Kaitlyn sees them and gets out of the pool in a skimpy outfit.

Kaitlyn- (approaching them) Glad somebodys here! This place is empty.
Ashley- Looks like, huh?
Kaitlyn- You look flustered, Ashley. Sit down here a minute. Tan with me.
Mark- (to Marcus) Can I talk to you inside a minute, Marcus?
Marcus- Alright. (to Ashley) We're going inside. Maybe we'll join you in a while.
Ashley- OK. (sits down beside of Kaitlyn) Kaitlyn, I'm so tired.
Kaitlyn- What's got you so tired, Ash?
Ashley- I guess a little of everything. I feel like the last six years of my life have rushed by so fast I missed them.
Kaitlyn- So you should slow down then.
Ashley- You would think that would be an easy answer but it isn't. (turning to her) So what have you been doing to keep busy?
Kaitlyn- Just trying to relax I guess. It's not every week you move into a place where someone is killed not long after you move in.
Ashley- I don't think any of us expected this. Lauryn is in pieces. You can tell she's ready to lose it. I can't imagine what she has been going through today.
Kaitlyn- Have you ever lost anyone close to you?
Ashley- (fighting back a tear) No. Not really. Just relatives you don't really know.
Kaitlyn- I lost my mother to cancer. It came as quite a shock. None of us expected it. I think she knew though. (looking off) She was the kind of stubborn woman who kept all her secrets locked up so she wouldn't hurt the ones she cared about. If she would've only stopped and realized we cared too much not to know, she could've saved us alot of pain.
Ashley- That is unfortunate. (They kay back to tan)
*Inside the apartment, Mark sits on the couch and motions Marcus over.
Marcus- So what is it, Mark?
Mark- Don't you think any of us should talk about what happened today?
Marcus- I guess I'm just not ready. One minute we're on a wonderful date and next minute we see people dead and then that meeting..that ghastly meeting.
Mark- It's alot for us all to process. Nothing wrong with that. We're only human after all.
Marcus- Well, do you need to get something in particular off of your chest?
Mark- One thing I guess.
Marcus- What's that?
Mark- I just want you to know Mark that no matter what Auntie said today. I mean, I know she named some pretty nasty things we all did. I just wanted you to know that no matter what you may or may not have done, I will never think differently of you. I am so thankful for the day we all met. We were clueless. All we knew was we had to live here and I thank God every day that we met and have each other. So, I guess I just wanted you to know that nothing will ever change the way I feel about you and Ashley. Nothing.
Marcus- I appreciate that Mark. And the feeling is mutual. Just forgive me if I dont want to talk about everything today. I just want a little peace and quiet for a few minutes. I don't think I could truly process anything else right now. I am give out, man.
Mark- Well, when you need anything or want to talk, let me know.
*Mark goes to hug Marcus. He hugs back.

***MEANWHILE Amauriel, Ayn, Grace and Elm are riding back together in Elm's car.

Ayn- Of all the fucking times for the car to break down..
Grace- What the hell were you thinking, Elm? Kimmy? What in the hell do you see in that bitch?
Elm- It's none of your damn business, Grace. You aren't my mother.
Grace- She's a married woman. And a bitch at that.
Elm- It's only her exterior, Grace. There's much more to that woman.
Grace- I'll bet you've seen it all. (sickened) I can't believe you.
Elm- Well all the rest of you might be content to wallow in your desperation. Unlike you, I'm going to make the most of this. So we're all in a suck ass situation. Well what the fuck are we gonna do? I don't know about you but I am not going to brood in it 24-fucking-7.
Grace- No, you're too damn stoned to feel anything.
Elm- I don't hear your ass complaining when you want to get high. You don't have the gumption to get your own no matter how much you want it. You just rely on Ol Elm to hook you up when you want it.
Grace- Bullshit.
Elm- No, I think you know I'm right. I'm a convenient scapegoat for the queen of scapegoats. Well, maybe I'll just keep my shit to myself from now on.
Grace- I don't want your shit, Elm.
Elm- You'll be knocking on my door tomorrow wanting some.
Grace- The fuck I will! Don't you have ANY reaction to what happened? Plus you were gone all fucking night fucking that bitch while people were dying here.
Elm- And I suppose you weren't getting loaded like usual?
Grace- Fuck you, Elm. I am still here in the car with the rest of us actually thinking about our future.
Elm- DON"T YOU THINK I'd have liked to give that Auntie witch a fucking fly kick to the jugular? Of course I did. But the reailty is I CANT! SO, excuse the shit out of me if I dont feel like stewing in it. I'd like to think about other things.
Grace- Or fuck other things?
Elm- You're just pulling this because you are still jealous. We haven't dated in over a year and still you're on my back.
Grace- You're so smug. I have long been over you.
Amauriel- (seeing apratment complex appraoching) Finally. I want out of this fucking car.
Ayn- Not nearly as bad as me, Ama! (gives him dirty look)
Elm- Well you can cool your damn jets. We're here!

***MEANWHILE Natasja is sleeping on Natalia's guest bed. Her cell wakes her up.
Natasja- (answering) Oh, this better be good!
JD- It's me.
Natasja- How did everything go?
JD- In a word, it fucking SUCKED! So, where are you sleeping at?
Natasja- (half-awake, yawns) At home, doofus. Where do you think?
JD- Dammit, Nat. Why are you lying?
Natasja- What are you talking about?
JD- I'm at your apartment. You're sleeping over at that whore's house. I heard you talking to them this morning.
Natasja- So what, JD?
JD- I thought I was your best friend. And you can't tell me when you're in trouble.
Natasja- It didn't seem all that important right now, OK?
JD- Fuck it isn't. You were gonna be homeless basically.
Natasja- Jd, I have barely woken up.
JD- Or maybe its just my apartment isn't swank enough for your big standards?
Natasja- That's bullshit, JD! I just dont want to live around a couple of goddamn bitchy teenagers. Alright. You think you would grow the fuck up and send the fucking kids away.
JD- I'm hanging up now. I am too damn pissed to talk to you right now.
Natasja- You must be confusing me with someone who gives a shit?
JD- Must be. (hangs up)
Natasja- I can't believe that little shit. *Natasja hears what sounds like an argument from Shiv's bedroom. She listens, leaning over the bed.
Natalia- You knew better than to spend that money!
Shivkala- We're going to be alright, Nat. I needed some new CD's. The fucking karaoke is getting too damn repetitive. I can't play the same songs over and over and over.
Natalia- You still should've asked me first. You know I would have.
Shivkala- (looks at ceiling) Why God? Why did you give me such a tightwad sister?
*Natasja's mouth hangs open and she falls off the bed by accident.

***MEANWHILE JD and Angelito get home, walk in and see the flower pots smashed and a dent in Hell's door.

JD- Man, I dont need this teen angst shit today.
Angelito- I'm going to my room. I need to be alone.
JD- (loudly) Hell, Liv. Get the hell in here.
*Liv and Hell walk out of their rooms, faces bruised.
JD- When are you two going to stop fighting?
Liv- When that bitch is rotting in the ground.
Hell- Fuck you, Liv.
JD- Well, I dont got time for this. I just thought the two of you should know that Auntie just told everyone that you live here. So now we got to talk about this. You can't go telling everyone answers to the questions they are going to ask.
Liv- I bet you are pissed now. Now we can't be your little locked up prostitution ring.
JD- You know you mean much more to me than that.
Liv- Then why aren't you ever home?
Hell- Yeah. Why don't you stay home with us?
JD- (sarcastically) And miss ALL OF THIS? You've got to be fucking kidding me. (pause) Why don't we just have some fun in the bedroom?
Hell- I can't do that anymore, JD. I'm falling in love with someone.
JD- Come on, Helen. How old are you? Flings pass. I am taking care of you here. I think I deserve some reciprocation.
Liv- She can't do anything right anyway.
Hell- Eat me, whore!
JD- I am not going to live with this negativity.
Liv- Is that a threat?
JD- I don't know. Maybe it is.
Liv- (slides her shoes on) Noone threatens me! I'm going to go socialize with my new community. I think I'll stop by Aunties as well. I am not going ANYWHERE! (walks right by him and out the door)
JD- Man, WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING TODAY? (screams for Angel) Angelito, get your ass out here! NOW!
Hell- I'm sorry, JD, but I really like Garrett.
JD- Seriously?? More than me?
Hell- I know you like other people more than you like me too.
JD- Who says?
Hell- I just know. Garrett likes me for who I am and I really like him. And I'm going to have him over when I want. So dont make this hard. Just let me be who I am.
JD- And what do I get? I dont see any rent from the two of you. What do I get in return?
Hell- Fine. I'll start paying my share BUT I AM NOT PAYING HERS!
JD- Yeah, and where are you getting the money, Helen? Your piggy bank? You can't get a job.
Hell- I'll find a way. (Shuts her door)
*JD huffs off to the kitchen.

***MEANWHILE Lauryn is with Ryan at the hospital as he is waking up.
Ryan- Hey there.
Lauryn- (hugging him tight) God, you scared the hell out of me.
Ryan- Is Harley Quinn alright?
Lauryn- She's fine.
Ryan- Has Kimmy been by yet?
Lauryn- (looking angry) No she hasn't.
Ryan- How did the meeting go? I can see I have been sleeping quite awhile.
Lauryn- It was horrible Ryan. I have a few things to tell you about but right now lets get some food in you. (turns to Garrett) Garrett, could you go get Ryan something?
Garrett- Sure thing.
Lauryn- (stops Garrett, holding his hand) You know, Ryan, Garrett saved our lives last night.
Ryan- Thanks, Garrett. Hows Wegie and everybody?
Lauryn- (tearing up again) Wegie didn't make it Ryan.
Ryan- (hugging Lauryn) Lauryn, I'm so sorry.
Lauryn- I am just trying to think of one thing at a time. Wanted to make sure you were alright. Now I have not one but two funerals to plan. And according to Auntie, I must get another kid in there soon. (crying) I can't stand for anyone else to get hurt.
Garrett- Well, I'll be back. Do you want anything, Lauryn?
Lauryn- No, I can't eat anything, Garrett.
Ryan- Lauryn, I have got to go to the bathroom.
Lauryn- Well, theres a bedpan here.
Ryan- Nah, I hate those. I can get there just fine.
Lauryn- Are you sure? I don't think you're supposed to get up.
Ryan- I'll be fine. Just give me a couple minutes alone. Ok.
Lauryn- Just be careful. (wiping eyes) I'll be right outside if you need me.
*She walks outside. She sees Kimmy coming down the hall. Lauryn gets madder with each step. She approaches her.
Kimmy- I think I can take it from here.
Lauryn- OH YEAH! You sure been doing a damn lousy job so far.
Kimmy- Just because you have some stupid crush on my husband dont mean anything. I care about him more than you could understand. So you best step off.
Lauryn- Not a chance! I won't have you go in there and upset him after all he's been through today.
Kimmy- And whose gonna stop me? Some mousy nanny who cant even keep her kids alive?
Lauryn- Oh, you went there. You know what- you sicken me. Just to know that some ugly jealous bitch such as yourself is someones mother.
Kimmy- Jealous? (laughs) I think you're the jealous one, Lauryn. You don't have a man and your fucking body is a big ass malfunction. You cant even have kids. In my book, thats some higher power saving the world from the likes of a spineless idiot who cant keep all her "Collected" kids in line.
Lauryn- Time and nature will catch up with me. Time and Nature will do nothing but walk all over your skanky ass.
Kimmy- Yes. I think I definetly touched a nerve. Little Lauryn overcompensating with troubled kids for her own insecurities benefit. You dont fool me. They all think you're so noble. I just think you're weak. So pathetically weak.
*Lauryn spits in her face. Kimmy lunges at her and Lauryn lunges back. They are locked up on the floor, kicking each other. Nurse Jessica runs over.
Nurse Jessica- Break it up. Break it up now. Or I will call the police.
*They break and get back up, Lauryn crying and Kimmy smiling.
Kimmy- I'd like to request time with my husband. This little hair-puller needs to be escorted away from here while I do.
Nurse Jessiaca- (with evil glee) Lauryn, she is right. Ryan is hKimmy's husband and she needs to have her time with him. If she wants that time to be without you, then I'm afraid you must go.
Lauryn- I hate you, Kimmy. You wont have him for long.
Kimmy- You can be rest assured you wont be watching my daughter again. You're a weak psycho.
Lauryn- You best believe Ryan will hear about your affair.
Kimmy- Auntie had that all wrong, honey. Just walk yourself away from this room NOW.
*Garrett gets back with a sandwich. Kimmy takes it from his hand.
Kimmy- Thank you. I am sure my husband is hungry.
Garrett- He must've been really fucking drunk when he took those vows.
*Kimmy slams the door. Lauryn goes for Garrett.
Lauryn- Walk me out of here a minute. I don't want to cry again in front of all these people.
Garrett- No problem, Lauryn.
Dr. Lee- (catching up with them) Lauryn, there you are. I needed to talk with you.
Lauryn- (crying) What is it now?
Dr. Lee- I know the last thing you want to deal with is funeral arrangements. However, it seems Alex wasn't telling the truth about his grandfather. His grandfather passed away six months ago. We can't find any living family member of his.
*Lauryn falls to the ground, crying. Garrett catches her.

***MEANWHILE QB is delivering the mail and sees Wout walking up.
Wout- Hello. Are you our postman?
QB- Yes, Wout. I have seen you before at the clubs.
Wout- Oh right. I don't go to those much anymore. This is my new home now.
QB- Are you moving in with someone?
Wout- No. I'm taking the vacant apartment. #6.
QB- #6? Has anyone told you about #6?
Wout- What about it?
*Aunties hearse is pulling in. sees Wout and stops the car. QB stops talking.
Auntie- (getting out) Well, hello, you must be Wout. Nothing like a new friend here at the complex.
Wout- Thanks! I think I am doing the right thing moving here. My last apartment was almost falling in. I needed a new place.
Auntie- Well, you've come to the right one. We are all one big happy family here. Aren't we QB?
QB- (frightened by her mere prescence) Yes we are.
Wout- Qb was just trying to warn me something about #6 when you pulled up. Is there anything you haven't told me?
Auntie- Was he now?
QB- (panicking) I am so sorry Wout. I guess I was being a bit selfish there. I ..I
Auntie- Just tell him, QB. He had talked about getting the apartment for himself. However, his budget has not allowed it as of yet. But I do own other complexes and QB will surely be able to find a living space there. Won't you QB?
QB- I apologize Wout. Please don't take it personally.
Wout- It's alright. (stares at Jd's apartment) It's admirable to fight for the things you want.
Auntie- It certainly is. Don't you think so as well, QB?
QB- Certainly.

***MEANWHILE Hailies is inside the apartment in Alex's room. A Smile and A Ribbon is playing. Hailies is grinning at the corner. As camera pans over, we see a hallucination of Alex with his brains dangling from his head.
Hailies- We're all alone Alex. Just like you wanted, my love.
Alex- I know it must be hard on you, Hailies, carrying my baby. But you and I both know it wouldn't be right to keep it. It will ruin your life. You know you can't be a mother.
Hailies- I'd like to try though Alex. For you, my love. (sobbing)
Alex- If you really loved me, you'd send my baby to me. I am so alone up here. I have noone. And there are far too many things you need to do before you join me. But first, darling, you need to take care of that baby.
Hailies- What do I do, Alex?
Alex- Take a clotheshanger from your closet, unfasten it and listen to my instructions.
*Hailies walks over in a daze to the closet, grabs a wirehanger and starts undressing. The tears are rolling down her cheeks. All the while watching Alex, She sticks the hanger up inside of her and starts moving it. She feels an intense pain and passes out, blood running between her legs. As she passes out, she is watching Alex smiling at her.

***MEANWHILE Lauryn and Garrett and Oba pull in to the complex to find Eugene waiting on their doorstep.
Eugene- Hi. Wegie told me I could come here. Is it still alright?
Oba- Eugene! Eugene! My Friend! *Jumps up and down
Lauryn- Oh, you must be Eugene. (goes up and hugs him) We had some bad things happen yesterday. (pats him on head)
Eugene- (numb) Does this mean I can't stay with you?
*Lauryn breaks down again and hugs Eugene. Garrett just stands still, wondering what to do when he notices Hell looking out her window. He winks at her. She winks back. He blows her a kiss.
Lauryn- Come on inside, Eugene. You can stay with us. (wiping tears) We just have to talk about some things first.
*They walk inside.
Lauryn- I'll get you all a soda. Alright?
Eugene- Can I use your bathroom?
Lauryn- Of course Eugene. (hugs him) It is yours now too.

*Eugene goes into the bathroom, washes his hands which are a little bloody. As he stares in the mirror, we see a flashback.
**FLASHBACK**
Jo- So whats in your bag, Eugene? I showed you mine. Now you show me yours. *Eugene looks around for people
*He puts his hand into the bag. Jo looks intently. Eugene pulls out a hammer and hits her in the forehard hard. Jo falls, screaming. He starts pounding her head with it, again and again. He tears her top off and starts pounding it at her breasts. Jo vomits up blood, trying to scream. He hits her repeatedly until she stops breathing. He gets up, emotionless. He pulls a shovel out of his bag and starts dragging her off toward the woods.
*Camera comes back to Eugene looking in mirror. He comes back out. Lauryn is crying again, holding Jo's letter.
Eugene- Is everything alright, Lauryn?
Lauryn- Can I get a hug?
Eugene- Of course. (He walks over to her and hugs her) Thank you so much. Nobody wants me.
Lauryn- Maybe we have something in common. Noone seems to want me either. Maybe we can take care of each other.
*Oba sees Hailies passed out in her bedroom.
Oba- BLOOD! BLOOD!
*Camera zooms in on the blood between Hailies legs.

"Joey, you are one twisted fuck"

Amen to that.

This is the series classic. Really well written, tensed and disturbing as a grandpa's clit.
