Chloe Jarrett
The hook is baited.
Gail Keck
Do we have to do this every single time?
Bolt Jarrett
Hey - we did it your way the last time. This is our turn.
Gail Keck
*full screen of eye roll emojis*
Can’t we be more clear about things?
June Atwell
Let the record show I’m not sniping at Gail that things are as clear as her clam chowder.
Gail Keck
*gasping emoji*
Donald Atwell
Now, you’ve done it.
June Atwell
I’ve done nothing. Just stating the obvious that clam chowder shouldn’t be so…. broth-like.
Gail Keck
Some of us can’t eat so much damn dairy and be a Disney Princess every day.
Donald Atwell
Aww, honey. She called you a princess! You’re my princess.

Chloe Jarrett
Anyway…. back to the current situation. Is everything in place for phase two?
Strick
Phase 2: Operation Ghosts of Skipper’s Past is ready to set sail.
Joy Maddux
Ugh. I remember this part. It totally sucks.
Thorn Pryor
Sunshine, we went over this.
Joy Maddux
I know, I know. I hate that she has to do this next part by herself.
Chloe Jarrett
She won’t be alone.
Joy Maddux
But she won’t know that at the moment.
Strick
Sometimes, you must walk through fire to get through the other side.
Joy Maddux
You’re starting to sound like Ziggy.
Strick
Facts.
Have you ever noticed how much sense he makes?
Gail Keck
No. He makes about as much sense as June in Daisy Dukes.
June Atwell

Gail Keck

Chloe Jarrett
Can we keep these women busy while Operation Ghosts of Kendra’s Past takes place?
Bolt Jarrett
I’m on it, my love.
Chloe Jarrett
Good. Then you can be on me later.
Thorn Pryor has left the chat.

Amateurs.
Now that they’re gone, let’s talk about the actual plan.
