Nick St. Clair is in the process of forcing himself onto Cheryl when the door busts down. In walks Veronica and the Pussycats.

"Get OFF of her!" Veronica shrieks, pulling him away.

As he takes a step back, she swings her arm, sending a hook to his face. He is punched over and over again rapidly, until he is on the ground, where he is then kicked until unconscious.

"Ladies! Get over here!" Josie shouts to them, huddled next to Cheryl.

"Is she awake?"

Josie responds, "Barely, she is in and out of consciousness it seems".

"We should take her somewhere else for when she wakes up."

Veronica is quick to reply,

"But what about Nick? We have to bring him to Sheriff Keller first".

"We could split up. Melody and I can get Sheriff Keller for Nick, you two can take Cheryl" Val points out.

The group of girls contemplate it for a coupl seconds before Veronica speaks up again,

"We can take her to my place at the Pembrooke."

Josie butt in,

"We should get Archie and the rest of that gang."

"How about we get her settled and then call them?"

Veronica and Josie carry Cheryl to the Pembrooke, and set her down on Veronica's bed. Josie then leaves the room to go get a glass of water and some painkillers for when Cheryl wakes up, leaving Veronica alone with Cheryl.

At this moment in time, all Veronica can think about is when Cheryl tried to kill herself. Both needed Veronica to have been stopped, both ended up with a not-there Cheryl, and both ended up being taken to the Pembrooke. She figures this time at least Cheryl isn't more pale than snow itself. However, this time will be more painful for her, considering the bruises already forming.

Before Josie gets back, Veronica figures it is about time to call the rest of the "Sad Breakfast Club", as Cheryl had deemed them. She pulls open her phone and dials the number she could remember in her sleep.

"Archie? It's me; something happened to Cheryl."
