[She remembers last night as clear as a bell. She talked to Stacy for an hour, told Matthew "maybe" when he called to ask her out for Friday night, did her homework to get Mom off her back, traded put-downs with Daria, then did her hour-long pre-bed beauty routine before she went to sleep. The next morning, she should have woken up at her usual six-thirty AM for her morning beauty routine.

Only it doesn't feel like six-thirty. It's hard to tell out here, which is most definitely not her bedroom. Or her house. Or even Lawndale. And this skimpy white gown is not her cute pajama pants and yellow tank top!]

Is this a joke? It's not very funny. Where are my clothes?! And my makeup, and my hairbrush?

...wait. Are those...wings?! No, it can't be! They're like angel wings...

...oh no. Oh, no, is this...Heaven?! Did I die?! No no no no no, this can't be happening, I can't be dead, Sandi will never forgive me if I miss the Fashion Club's Lipsticks and Lip Balms discussion forum! Oh, everyone's going to be devastated...maybe even Daria will miss me. She'll be even more of a misery chick than before!

Ohhh, someone please tell me this isn't happening!

...oh! A journal...and it's empty. Um, okay. Dear diary, today I woke up dead! This is the worst day of my life!

Don't worry, I'll come find you!

[It takes Jeb a little while, but eventually he'll be approaching Jeb with both his journal and a pastel blue hoodie carried underneath his left arm. Pastel blue goes well with white, right? He has a feeling she'd appreciate a lighter color, anyway.]

I'm here, miss...!

[It's a pretty shade of light blue, at least. She smiles appreciatively.]

Thanks. Was it safe for you to come out here on your own? [Not just because she still thinks this place might be scary, but he's kind of...little.]

[Hey, he's growing! A little...]

You're welcome. [Smiles.] Don't worry about it. As long as we get back to the village soon, we should be fine.

[After all, being out here at night still probably isn't safe--he hasn't at all forgotten about the warning from a few months ago. It's best if they get out of there before then.]

[Quinn takes the hoodie from him and puts it on. There, that's much warmer.]

Okay, now I need to go to this clothing store.

I'll be happy to take you there, miss!

Thanks! [Just like back home, boys are so willing to do stuff for her. Granted, this one's a little too short for her to consider going out with, but he's adorable!]

You're welcome! [No offense, Quinn, but he wouldn't go out with you either. Hung up on his might-be-dead girlfriend, after all.] ...so, what's your name?

[Well, at least there's that squared away!]

Quinn Morgendorffer, from Lawndale.

Quinn? That's a pretty name. I'm Jeb Parmalee, it's nice to meet you! [Smilesmile.] Lawndale? Is it a nice place?

Yeah, it's pretty nice! A little boring, but there's a big mall and a really fancy French restaurant! And of course, a beauty salon.

What's the French restaurant like? [This small talk isn't going so badly... what a relief!]

The food is really good and the waiters are really foreign. French accents are super hot!

...they are nice to listen to. [He doesn't mean it in a perverted way, but.]

Aren't they? Accents in general tend to be pretty hot, though, except hillbilly accents. But hillbillies are creepy all over!

...I wouldn't say they're all creepy--things like that really depend on the individual.

All the ones I've met are!

But that doesn't mean all of them are... right?

...well...maybe.

[Smiles.]

I think that people can be nice, no matter what "kind" of person they are, or where they grew up.

...hmm. I guess so. [Jeb has clearly never met Sandi Griffin.]

[Jeb would probably still try to find good traits in her, Quinn.]

Sometimes the kindness is just hard to notice!

Yeah, sometimes...

...did I offend you? I'm sorry!

[Oh God, that face...it's not him, really, she's just thinking about things she'd rather not]

Um no! That just made me think of my, um, cousin...she's really sarcastic and mean but sometimes she can be nice.

Oh... [Hmm.] Do you think you'll miss her while you're here, Quinn?
