Chapter Four: Criminal Minds
Still Wednesday, September 21st. Peppermint is late getting to class and Mr Garrett notices.
Mr Garrett: You're late, Miss Farley. Where's your friend, Miss Jefferson?
Peppermint: Uh, Lucky got hurt, so I made sure she got to the Nurse's office okay.
Mr Garrett: Well, I hope she'll be okay. What happened to her?
Peppermint: She was attacked by her own sister. Can you believe that?
Mr Garrett: Yes I can, now go find your seat.
Peppermint: Yes, Mr Garrett.
Peppermint quickly finds her seat and sits down. In the office, Dandy and Jenny are in the office, sitting across from Mr Prince, waiting for their punishment.
Dandy: (confused) Hey, where's Lucky?
Monte: Thanks to Miss Jenny, she's in the Nurse's office, so I might as well get to the punishments.
Dandy rolls his eyes. He's not gonna like what's coming next.
Jenny: Where's Mr Thorsen? You're not the Principal.
Monte: I'm Vice Principal and I have every right to punish you.
Jenny: Whatever.
Monte: Miss Jefferson, you assualted your sister, who may end up with a concussion. For that and adding to your assault on your ex, I say that's grounds for expulsion.
Jenny is outraged and Dandy starts laughing.
Jenny: You can't expel me. It's my first offense and since my dad is a lawyer, he can sue you for this.
Dandy: (laughs) The same dad who threw your ass out for being an ungrateful brat? Get real.
Jenny: Shut up, Dandy.
Monte is trying not to laugh.
Monte: Considering that you are a spoiled brat and considered a risk to harm another student, when nothing goes your way, expulsion felt like the right punishment for you.
Jenny: You don't even know me.
Monte: True, but I know your father, now get out of my office.
Jenny storms out of the office, leaving only Dandy to be punished.
Dandy: That went well. What's my punishment, Mr Prince?
Monte: Not as bad as Miss Jefferson's, so two days of detention for harassing and bullying Miss Lucky.
Dandy: Will Lucky get punished?
Monte: To be honest, I feel bad for what she had to go through to make a point, so her punishment will be the same as yours.
Dandy: Fine with me.
Monte: Good, now go back to class.
Dandy gets up and leaves the office.
In the lobby and before going back to class, she gets on her phone and hacks into Dandy's Social Media account. She posts a controversial confession.
Jenny (text): (posting as Dandy) I got Jenny expelled from school and now I'm gay for my friend, Wyatt. He's so hot and fuckable. I rather have dick, than Jenny's pussy. Feeling gay and proud.
Jenny gives herself a devious smile and walks back to class. During class change, May confronts her brother by his locker.
May: So, what happened in the Principal's office? Please don't tell me that you got in trouble.
Dandy: Yeah, I did and it wasn't fair.
May: No, it wasn't, cause you didn't do anything.
Dandy: I know, I know, but at least detention is better, than being expelled.
May: You were looking at expulsion?
Dandy: No, Jenny got expelled and her reaction was priceless.
May: What did Jenny do to get expelled?
Dandy: She nearly put Lucky in hospital, this morning and I kinda feel bad for her.
May: Well, she's a dumb bitch and needed to be kicked out of school.
Dandy closes his locker, giving his sister his full attention.
Dandy: Since Lucky was injured, she only got detention for two days.
May: I kinda feel bad for her, now.
Dandy: This is that moment, that we realized, that we became friends with the wrong Jefferson.
May: Don't I know it.
Both Dandy and May walk off to their next class. During lunch, Peppermint is relieved in glad to see Lucky, but with an ice pack on her head.
Peppermint: Are you gonna be okay?
Lucky: After some pain killers and this ice pack, the Nurse said I should got to the hospital, to make sure nothing is really wrong.
Peppermint: First your sister breaks your nose and now she nearly gives you a concussion. If I were you, you should press assault charges on her.
Lucky: I plan on doing just that.
Peppermint changes the subject.
Peppermint: By the way, this morning's lobby incident was posted on YouTube this morning. Same person who posted the other videos, by the way. I subscribed, so I can try and find out who this person is.
Lucky: If it helps, these videos are putting the right people in detention or suspended.
Peppermint: Please don't tell me that you got punished.
Lucky: Yeah, Mr Thorsen came to the Nurse's office and told me that my sister got a five day suspension and Dandy only got detention.
Peppermint: Detention with Dandy? Now that is punishment.
Lucky: Well, I got one day of detention, but that's whenever my head isn't hurting.
Peppermint: Well, at least the Principal cares.
Then the two friends continue to eat their lunch.
In Construction class, Dandy is walking into the room and all the students are laughing at him. Confused, he walks up to Wyatt, who has already seen the post and feels awkward around Dandy.
Dandy: Dude, what's going on? Why are people laughing at me?
Wyatt: Are you seriously asking that question?
Dandy: (looking around) What are you all laughing at?
Tommy taps him on the shoulder and shows him a recent Social Media post from his phone. Dandy reads it to himself and gets angry.
Dandy: (lashes out) I did not post this! I was hacked! I am not a fruit!
Other students continue to laugh at him. Dandy gets on his phone, deletes the post and changes his password.
Dandy (text): Ignore last post. I was hacked. I am not a fruit.
That afternoon, Lucky walks into class, for detention and sits down. She gets annoyed when Dandy gets up and sits next to her.
Lucky: Don't even talk to me, Dandy. It's your fault that we're both in here. And thanks to you, I'm gonna be grounded.
Dandy: Maybe I wanted you to myself. Ever thought about that?
Lucky: Get a clue, cause I'm not that into you.
Dandy: Yeah, but I'm into you and you can't kick me in here.
Lucky changes the subject.
Lucky: Ever wonder why there's humiliating YouTube videos of you? Anyone you did wrong lately?
Dandy: Probably the same person who hacked my Social Media account.
Lucky: Come again?
Dandy: Someone got on my Social Media, as me, saying that I was gay for my friend, Wyatt.
Lucky: (laughs) I don't think it's the same person, but I do know who hacked your Social Media.
Dandy: Who?
Lucky: Next time, make sure my sister isn't looking over your shoulder, when you log into your Social Media. She did it, cause she promised to hack your account if she got in trouble.
Dandy: That bitch. It's her fault she got expelled. No one told her to be violent.
Lucky: Jenny got expelled? Serves her right and now she will go to jail for a long time, cause I will get her charged with assault.
Dandy: I saw that video, so you do what you gotta do.
Lucky: For now, I just wanna get through detention and go to the hospital after.
Dandy: And you think that after you're better, we can be friends?
Lucky: Don't press your luck.
Dandy: Well, I had to ask.
At Kenny's law office, Kenny approaches Tova at the reception desk.
Kenny: Any messages for me, Tova?
Tova: A call from the high school. Jenny got expelled and Lucky got a day of detention.
Kenny: Expelled? Good thing she isn't my daughter.
Tova: That is so cold, Kenny.
Kenny: You don't know Jenny and my ex-wife, so I say whatever I like about them.
Tova: Good to know.
Tova states, as Kenny walks away and towards his office.
Riding a bike from school, Lucky notices no car in the driveway and the front door ajar. She nervously approaches the open door to see who's inside.
Stacy: Jenny, I got a call from the school, saying you got expelled? What did you do?
Jenny: It was all Lucky's fault and she gets away with everything. Even dad let's her get away with everything.
Stacy: That's not the Kenny, I know.
Jenny: Maybe it's dad's new home wrecker making him think with his dick. And do you have any idea on what it took to be nice, to Lucky, just to get back in this house? It's exhausting.
Stacy: Have you met this "home wrecker"?
Jenny: No, but Lucky has and she's okay with it.
Stacy: Backstabbing, little bitch. I never cared for Lucky anyways. She's as ugly as her father.
Jenny: Then why did you marry him?
Stacy: His money, cause he's too dumb to notice my infidelity.
Jenny: What are you saying, mom? Dad isn't my real dad?
Stacy: Not biologically. But, Kenny was dumb enough to believe you were his and married him for his money.
Jenny: And Lucky? Were you dumb enough to give him a prodigy?
Stacy: I had a moment of weakness, so yeah, cause I didn't want him to get suspicious of my affairs.
Jenny: Explains why I hated her for so long. Can you really explain to me what you're looking for?
Stacy: Kenny has lock box around here somewhere, cause he mentioned it had a register and bank card to a savings account.
Jenny: Savings account to what?
Stacy: To Lucky's college fund and thensome, so let's find it, run away together and find ourselves another sugar daddy.
Jenny: Yeah, cause we deserve it.
Lucky, hearing every word, leaves her backpack on the porch and just walks off with her phone and few dollars in her pocket.
Lucky ended up riding her bike to Stewart's, crying and approached by Peppermint and Chance. Both have an ice cream cone in their hands.
Peppermint: So nice to see you, Lucky. Chance and I were just getting ice cream.
Lucky: I think about running away from home. Can I live with you?
Peppermint: Not that I mind, but why?
Lucky: I came home, overheard mom and Jenny saying bad things about me, my dad and making plans to runaway with my dad's money.
Chance: Just call the police, saying someone broke into your house.
Lucky: I don't wanna get police involved.
Chance: If someone does you wrong, by committing a crime, call the police.
Peppermint: Call your dad, Chance. He's a cop and he can help.
Chance: He's still on duty, so sure.
Lucky: (nervous) Let me talk to him.
Chance: Sure.
Chance gets out his phone, dials his dad's number, who is OFFICER ELLIS STERLING and hands the phone over to Lucky.
Officer Sterling: (on the phone) Chance, this better be important, if you're calling me while I'm on duty.
Lucky: It's Chance's friend, Lucky Jefferson. I need to report a break in at 61 Woodbridge Avenue.
Officer Sterling: (on the phone) Any reason to believe that it's a break in?
Lucky: It's my house actually. You see, no one was home, the door was unlocked and I overheard two people talking about stealing my dad's money.
Officer Sterling: (on the phone) I'll grab another officer and be on my way.
Then Lucky gives Chance back his phone.
Lucky: Thank you so much. Peppermint, you have a great boyfriend.
Chance: Any friend of Pepper's is a friend of mine.
Lucky: I guess I should go back over to my house and wait for the police.
Peppermint: That'll be a good idea.
Lucky: See you tomorrow, Peppermint.
Lucky smiles and rides her bike back home.
Lucky stays hidden by the side of the house, just as two police car show up. Lucky watches as two police officers enter the house and approaches two other officers, OFFICER AMANDA and Officer Sterling.
Officer Sterling: Are you the one that reported a break in?
Lucky: Yes, officer. I'm Lucky Jefferson.
Officer Amanda: Where is your father, mam?
Lucky: On his way home from work, I hope. He's a Criminal Defense Attorney.
Two cops coming out of the house with Stacy and Jenny in handcuffs. Lucky acts surprised to see them.
Officer Sterling: Do you recognise these ladies, Miss Jefferson?
Lucky: Yes, the gold-diggers who are after my dad. Were they arrested for trespassing?
Officer Amanda: Since they don't live here, then yes.
From a distance, Stacy is giving Lucky an infuriating look, as police put her in the back of a police car.
The two officers continue to question Lucky.
Officer Sterling: When your father shows up, we will ask him some questions.
Lucky: Okay, sure.
Then a cars pulls into the driveway. Kenny and Tova exit the car, just as the two officers approach Kenny.
Kenny: (surprised) Can I help you officers?
Officer Amanda: Are you Mr Kenny Jefferson?
Kenny: What seems to be the problem?
Officer Sterling: Your daughter called me and reported a break-in. We found and arrested two ladies, who are now being taken down to the station.
Officer Amanda: Any reason why someone would break into your house?
Kenny: Not that I'm aware of. Guess it depends on who broke into my house.
Officer Amanda: Well, if you choose to press any charges, please come down to the station.
Kenny: Thank you officers.
The two police officers tip their hats, get into their car and leave. Lucky approaches both her dad and Tova.
Kenny: Lucky, can you please explain the police showing up at our house?
Lucky: Yes, dad. I came home to find mom and Jenny looking around the house, to find some mysterious lock box, so I called the police.
Tova: Oh my gosh. Kenny, your ex-wife just tried to rob you.
Kenny: Good thing she and Jenny didn't get very far and I will be pressing charges.
Lucky: Can you add assault charges to that?
Kenny and Tova notices Lucky rubbing her head and become concerned.
Kenny: What happened to you? Are you okay?
Lucky: Before Jenny got expelled, she pushed me down so hard, I hit my head on the concrete.
Tova: Then you should be taken to the hospital.
Lucky: No arguement here.
They walk back to the car, Kenny and Tova in the front seat and Lucky in the backseat. The car pulls out of the driveway.
At the Farley's, Mitchell is just getting off of work and sees his wife stering food on the stove. He approaches her, putting his arms around her, then kissing down her neck.
Mitchell: I'm home, baby. Where are the kids?
Rae: In their rooms, doing their homework. Except for Brian. He's playing in his room.
Mitchell: I was thinking, maybe we could sneak in a quickie, before you call them to the dinner table.
Rae: You ain't that worried about them seeing us? Cause you know we never fuck quietly.
Mitchell: How could we? Cause you always get too loud.
Mitchell says, his arms wrapped around his wife, kissing down her neck. He then starts grinding against her ass, then reaching in front and grabbing her breasts.
Mitchell: I'm so fucking hard, right now.
Rae: Should we do it on the dining room table?
Mitchell: Oh, yes. For now, let's fuck on the counter.
Rae moans at the thought. Then he starts massaging her ass.
Rae: (moans) Oh, fuck! That feels good.
Mitchell decides to throw in a few whacks on her ass. Both parents are unaware that their kids are watching, waiting for dinner.
Rae: (moans) Spank me again, Mitchell.
Mitchell surprisingly smacks his wife on the ass.
MITCHELL: Fuck, yeah. You naughty woman.
Peppermint and Sugar, try not to laugh, but Tommy was recording everything on his camera phone.
Tommy: So, uh, when is dinner ready?
Tommy just had to get their reaction on video camera, trying not to laugh. Mitchell approaches Tommy.
Mitchell: Were you recording that, Tommy?
Tommy: Just for my own amusement.
Tommy says, before putting the phone down.
Mitchell: Girls, don't stand there. Help your mother set the table.
Mitchell mutters something, feeling embarrassed.
Mitchell: Damn kids.
Minutes later and at the dinner table, the awkward silence was there. But, somebody had to break it.
Rae: Damn it, I forgot the butter.
At that moment, things were about to get awkwardly funny. Especially for Tommy's remarks.
Tommy: Naughty mom, forgot the butter.
After that remark, Peppermint and Sugar nearly fell out of their chairs, laughing.
Brian: What is everyone talking about, daddy?
MITCHELL: Nothing, so eat your dinner.
BRIAN: Is mommy gonna get time out, now? Cause you spanked her.
Tommy, Peppermint and Sugar laugh. Rae feels embarrassed.
RAE: (rolls her eyes) Really?
TOMMY: You two started it.
Mitchell: That's not the point. Can we not we all talk about something pleasant?
Tommy: Okay, just don't spank me.
Again, the sisters continue laughing, trying hard to eat their dinner. Mitchell and Rae, facepalm to hide their shame.
Thursday, September 22nd. Lucky coming into school and is approached by Peppermint.
Peppermint: So, did the police ever show up?
Lucky: Yeah and mom and sister got arrested. Apparently, my dad hid my college fund in the house and my mom tried to find it.
Peppermint: Your dad gonna press charges?
Lucky: Yes, he is. Today, he's gonna stop by the police station to ask my mom why she broke in and had Jenny accompany her.
Peppermint: You have one, crazy family, Lucky.
Peppermint changes the subject.
Peppermint: So, did you go to the doctor? Are you gonna be okay?
Lucky: I'll be fine, Pepper. The doctor said I was lucky and it could have been much worse.
Peppermint: You did hit the concrete pretty hard.
Lucky: Don't I know it.
And then Peppermint and Lucky hear the bell ring. Walking into History class, it wasn't long before Trent and Jessica were coming up to ask Lucky questions.
Jessica: Lucky, is it true that your sister's in jail?
Trent: Is it true your mom's in jail too?
Lucky: Where did you hear that from?
Jessica: It's on YouTube, the part where the cops arrested your mom and sister, yesterday afternoon.
Lucky: Nothing is sacred anymore, I swear.
Trent shows Lucky the video and is relieved that Adria wasn't the one who put it up.
Lucky: Well, what can I say? I'm related to criminals.
As the teacher comes in, everyone takes their seats.
So Spanish during class, Peppermint starts talking to Lucky, the moment she sits down at her seat.
Peppermint: Lucky, now that you are better, you're gonna serve your detention today?
Lucky: I did that yesterday, just to get it over with. Dandy was there too, cause he got two days of detention.
Peppermint: Was Dandy annoying the whole time?
Lucky: He was bugging about who this YouTuber could be, but I seriously have no idea.
Peppermint: I do, but I'm not gonna tell no one. I mean, I have an idea on who it could be.
Lucky: Like who?
Peppermint: Anyone who doesn't like Dandy, but that could be anyone.
Lucky: You know what was also weird? Dandy wanted to be friends with me.
Peppermint: I just think he likes you better, than your sister and still wants you that way.
Lucky: Ugh, I hope not, cause I'm all about Callum.
Then Peppermint's mind gets dirty.
Peppermint: Lucky, you missed out on something good, last night.
Lucky: Like what?
Peppermint: My parents making out in the kitchen.
Lucky: So what? I've witnessed my dad and Tova playing tonsil hockey.
Peppermint: Dad was spanking mom, she liked it and it was so funny.
Lucky: Was anyone naked?
Peppermint: No, but when Tommy interrupted them, their faces were priceless.
Lucky: That's just as juicy, as hearing Tova and my dad having sex. I was on my phone and could hear "Oh, Kenny!" over and over and it was so loud.
Then Peppermint gives Lucky an unrealistic image.
Peppermint: It could have been worse. You could have seen them going at it.
Lucky: (repulsed) Ugh! No. I rather not.
Lucky shakes her head at at any sexual thoughts involving her dad. During French class, Tommy has a class with May and he's sitting next to her, while doing classwork.
Tommy: So May, how's your brother taking his detention?
May: Well, he doesn't seem to care. It's like, better than expulsion.
Tommy: Aren't you glad that Jenny got expelled?
May: I'm even happier if she goes to jail, cause Jenny's a psycho nutcase.
Tommy: Why would she go to jail?
May: She assaulted Lucky and broke into a house. What a crazy-ass bitch.
Tommy changes the subject.
Tommy: You know, Homecoming is coming up. I'm not with anyone and not sure you're with anyone, so...
May: Are you hinting something?
Tommy: Yeah, a date with me. So, will you go with me to Homecoming?
May: Well, you are big, strong and sexy. You're also the Quarterback, so why not?
Tommy: Awesome.
During lunch, Lucky sits with Callum and Adria.
Callum: It's good to see that you're okay.
Lucky: Yeah and it's already been a crazy week.
Adria: Did you still get punished?
Lucky: I had detention yesterday, but that was it. Worst of it, I had to share a room with Dandy.
Callum: That loser better not try anything. He knows I can kick his ass.
Lucky: He's asking if I know anything about who could have posted the YouTube videos, but I told him I had no clue.
Adria: Good.
Callum: Did you see that he got hacked yesterday? His Social Media page was like, "I'm gay for Wyatt" and everyone was laughing at him.
Adria: I didn't do that.
Lucky: My sister did. She told me that if she got a worse punishment, than Dandy, then she would hack his account.
Adria: For her own good, glad she is put away, for the safety of others.
Lucky: Don't I know it.
Outside of school, Kenny comes down to the police station to talk to Stacy in the interrogation room. She had been sitting in a jail cell, with Jenny, since yesterday.
Stacy: Kenny, no surprise to see you. Gonna be my attorney?
Kenny: Cut the shit, Stacy. You broke into my house and tried to steal from me, so I'm here to press charges.
Stacy: You just filed for divorce, so we're still married and I still live there, Kenny.
Kenny: No, I filed for divorce months ago and I changed the lease of the house, so we're not married and you did break into my house.
Stacy: Asshole, you didn't have to call the cops and Jenny only followed me into the house, so please don't press charges on her.
Kenny: She assaulted Lucky twice, breaking her nose and then nearly giving her a concussion. She'll be going to jail for a long time.
Stacy: But Jenny is so young. She can't waste her youth in prison.
Kenny: She should have thought of that before assaulting my daughter and breaking into my house. I also think you two need a new perspective, behind bars.
Stacy: Asshole. What I did was a misdemeanor, so when I get out of jail, I'll come after you, Lucky and your new trophy fuck.
Kenny gets angry and slams his hands on the table to startle Stacy.
Kenny: You don't ever threaten me and my family and I'll make sure you go away for a very long time.
Stacy: I like to see you try.
Then Kenny storms out of the room.
Before Lucky gets home, Tova is waiting on the couch when Kenny storms in through the front door, slamming it and startling Tova.
Tova: Bad day at work?
Kenny: I was just at the police station, to press charges on my ex and Jenny and confronted her in interrogation. Biggest mistake I ever made.
Tova: I'm sure that whatever she said or done, you can't let that get to you.
Kenny: She threatened me, Lucky and even you for whenever she gets out of jail. I can't let her do that. I can't let ruin what I have. I can't let her ruin my family.
Tova: Okay Kenny, just sit down and think about this.
Kenny sits beside Tova and she rubs his back to calm him down.
Tova: You were married to her for a long time, so you think she's capable of violence?
Kenny: She's hit Lucky on occasion, so yeah.
Tova: This isn't good. Maybe you should call my dad.
Kenny: What for?
Tova: You helped him in a case, to put my mom away for a long time, so maybe he can help you put your ex away for a long time.
Kenny: Not sure trespassing will be enough to put her away for a long time, but it's worth a shot to just talk to your father.
That's when Lucky comes home and sees her dad and Tova in the living room.
Tova: How was school?
Lucky: It's okay. I got to see and talk to my friends and not have to worry about my mom breaking in and trying to steal something.
Kenny: It won't happen anymore, cause I pressed charges. She and Jenny are gonna be in jail for a long time.
Lucky: Good. They surely didn't have anything nice to say about the three of us.
Tova: Oh really? I wonder what nasty things they had to say about us?
Kenny: Do we really need to get into that?
Tova: I don't wanna know, but I gotta know.
Lucky: Well, mom thinks dad and I are ugly and she thinks you're a home wrecker.
Tova: Well, she's a gold-digging cunt, so there's that.
Kenny: Can we talk about something else?
Tova: Sure. To cheer you up, my sister threw an apple at her ex boyfriend, which was really funny.
Lucky: Did your sister get in trouble?
Tova: Not really. Alex was a major douchebag and it was a first Michelle ever stood up for me.
Lucky laughs, as she goes upstairs to her room.
Kenny: At least your high school days wasn't always dark.
Tova: It's what got me through my depression.
Tova scoots closer to Kenny and lays her head on his chest. He puts his arm around her and smiles.
Kenny: How did I ever get so lucky?
Tova: I'll let you know after we snuggle.
Tova continues to smile at Kenny.
Friday, September 23rd. Lucky is approached by Callum and Adria in the school lobby.
Callum: Hey Lucky. You think we can go out this Saturday?
Lucky: I wish, but having detention on Wednesday, got me grounded for this weekend.
Adria: That sucks.
Callum: With smartphones, these days, we can video chat. Unless, you are grounded from your phone.
Lucky: We can video chat. I just can't go out and use the computer.
Adria: Or you can just go over and hang out. I'm sure your dad wouldn't mind, Lucky.
Lucky: Yeah, sure. Callum, you can bond with my dad.
Callum: (sarcastically) Oh, yay.
During Senior Writing class, Officer Sterling enters the room and asks for Dandy.
Officer Sterling: Which one of you is Daniel Garrett?
A lot of fingers point at Dandy.
Dandy: Yeah, why? What did I do?
Officer Sterling: Can you please get up and turn around?
Mr Artist approaches the situation.
Mr Artist: What's this about?
Officer Sterling: You, Daniel Garrett, are under arrest for statutory rape of a minor, Adria Sterling.
Dandy: Oh, shit.
Officer Sterling handcuffs Dandy and is escorted out of the room. The other students start whispering about it.
In the school lobby, Mr Garrett happens to be in the lobby and is stunned to see his son, handcuffed and escorted out by two police officers. Mr Garrett approaches the officers.
Mr Garrett: What's going on, here?
Dandy: Dad, you gotta get me out of this. I didn't do anything wrong.
Officer Sterling: (to Dandy) I got a report, from Miss Adria Sterling herself, that you took her out on a date and "had" her in the front seat of your car.
Mr Garrett: Surely, we can settle this right here.
Dandy: I can swear that nothing happened.
Officer Sterling: You surely didn't have any problem bragging about it, huh?
Mr Garrett: Who is this Adria Sterling?
Officer Sterling: She's a fifteen year old girl, that goes to this school and having intercourse with a minor is considered statutory rape. That's a serious offense.
Dandy is freaking out and begs his dad for help.
Dandy: Dad, I didn't do anything.
Mr Garrett: We'll get a lawyer and settle this, son. Don't you worry.
Just as the police officers leave with Dandy, Mr Garrett curses to himself.
Mr Garrett: (upset) Fuck me!
At the police station, Jenny is sitting in her holding cell and surprised to see Dandy being put in the cell across from her.
Jenny: Dandy? What are you doing here?
Dandy: Oh, no. Not you again. I think I'm having a nightmare.
Jenny: Couldn't stay away from me, could you?
Dandy: You know Callum Sterling's sister? Apparently, I had a date with her and now I'm in here for having sex with her.
Jenny: (appalled) You had sex with her?
Dandy: No, I didn't. My dad is gonna find a lawyer to get me out of here.
Jenny: I would suggest my dad, but he wouldn't get me out of here.
Dandy: Cause you actually did something wrong, you dumb slut. I'm innocent.
Jenny: You are so glad I can't reach you.
Stacy is in the same cell with her daughter and is tired of the bickering.
Stacy: You two shut the fuck up. I'm tired of your whiney asses.
Dandy: I wish I had my cell phone, cause a mother/daughter mugshot would look excellent on my Social Media page.
Dandy, finding humor in the situation, laughs at Jenny and her mom sharing a cell. Stacy doesn't find it amusing.
Stacy: You are so glad I can't strangle you from here, Dandy.
DANDY: Too bad you can't.
Dandy just laughs and blows raspberries. At the Jefferson's and before Lucky gets home, it's just Kenny and Tova conversing in the kitchen.
Tova: Not to rush anything, but at any point in our relationship, will I be able to move in?
Kenny: Why haven't you moved in, yet?
Tova: How is Lucky gonna feel about that?
That's when Lucky comes into the kitchen and overhears the question.
Lucky: How I'm gonna feel about what?
Kenny: What do you think if Tova just moved in? I know it's moving a bit fast, but your opinion matters.
Lucky: Slow way down, you two. That's my opinion. So, wait longer and if you two don't break up, move right on in.
Tova: (to Kenny) As tempting as it is to move in, I might as wait until my apartment lease is up.
Kenny: Good enough for me.
Lucky decides to add something else.
Lucky: Dad, since I'm grounded and can't go out this weekend, is it okay if Callum and I hung out here.
Kenny: Uh, there's no way that you can have boys over when I'm at work.
Lucky: Can I just bring Peppermint over?
Kenny: You can have your friend over and that's it. No boys.
Lucky is bummed about not having any Callum time, but she gets over it.
Saturday, September 24th. Mr Garrett and May show up at the police station and the holding cell to visit Dandy.
Dandy: Dad, you gotta get me out of here. I'm about to go insane.
Mr Garrett: I'm working on it.
May laughs, after looking around and seeing Jenny behind bars.
May: And you thought I was a dumb blonde, huh, Jenny? Look who's behind bars?
Jenny: Shut up, May.
May: Or what? You can't do anything.
Dandy: May, can we focus here. She's why I'm going crazy.
Mr Garrett: First off, why would this Adria accuse you of statutory rape?
Dandy: She doesn't like me, I guess.
May: Dad, we know Dandy. He wouldn't do anything criminally stupid. Not like his ex, over there.
Jenny: I'm right here, you know.
Dandy: Exactly the reason why I need to get out of here.
Mr Garrett: Relax, son. From there, she really can't kick you in the nuts.
Dandy: Haha, very funny.
May: I think we need to talk to the Sterlings, dad.
Dandy: Yeah, that's right. Callum and Chance hate me, so this must be some idiotic prank to get back at me for something.
Mr Garrett: Why would the police waste the manpower for a prank?
May and Dandy shrug.
Mr Garrett: Do I really need to get a lawyer, Dandy?
Dandy: Jenny's dad's an Attorney. Get him.
Jenny: If my dad won't represent me, why would he represent you?
May: Cause you're a dumb bitch and even your daddy's ashamed of you.
For the first time, Jenny had no comeback and May laughs at her for it. At the Jefferson's, Lucky opens the door and excited to see Peppermint and Sugar.
Lucky: So glad that you two can come over. Dad said I couldn't have boys over.
PEPPERMINT: Don't sweat it, Lucky. My parents don't let me have Chance over, even when they are home.
Sugar: What are we gonna do?
Lucky notices Peppermint with a couple of white plastic bags.
LUCKY: I see you made your way over to Charron's.
PEPPERMINT: What's a good time without junk food?
Sugar: We got chips, soda and candy bars.
PEPPERMINT: And three sandwiches. I mean, Charron's does make good sandwiches.
Lucky: Yes, they do. Especially, the fried chicken sandwich, with cheese, bacon and mayo.
Sugar: That's what Peppermint got you.
PEPPERMINT: You don't have to pay me back, Lucky. Having me and Sugar over is kindness enough.
Lucky: Well, park your butts on the couch and we'll Netflix and chill.
All three of them walk over and plop down on the couch. Lucky with the remote.
Sugar: No scary stuff.
LUCKY: I don't like scary stuff either, Sugar and I'm sure there's plenty of funny stuff to watch.
PEPPERMINT: TV with my bestie and sister. Yay!
Lucky agrees by happily turning on the TV with the remote.
Monday, September 26th. At school and the moment Lucky steps into her History class, she is confronted by Mr Garrett.
Mr Garrett: Miss Jefferson, can I talk to you for a moment?
Lucky: What about, Mr Garrett?
Mr Garrett: Your dad's an Attorney, right? Cause I need one to get my son out of jail.
Lucky: You can always call his office. You would have to look up "Kenny Jefferson, Attorney at Law".
Mr Garrett: Sure, thank you.
And just before Lucky sat down, Peppermint just had to ask.
Peppermint: So, what was that about?
Lucky: Mr Garrett needs an Attorney for his son, so he heard my dad's an attorney and needed his contact information.
Peppermint: I thought your dad supported winning cases.
Lucky: True, but it will give my dad something to do.
Peppermint: That's true.
And then Peppermint and Lucky take their assigned seats in class.
Trent: So, Mr Garrett. Is your son going to jail for a long time?
MR GARRETT: He didn't do anything wrong, so hopefully not. (to the class) Now, open your books and get out your homework from last Friday.
Jessica raises her hand.
Jessica: You know, you're pretty much the only teacher that gives out homework on Friday's.
MR GARRETT: I frankly don't give a shit and if there's anyone that can't handle homework on Friday's, go back to elementary school.
The whole class felt that burn, as they opened their books. Same day, Kenny walks into KYLE BENNETT's office, with a couple of case files under his arm. Kyle is surprised to see him.
Kyle: I wasn't aware we had an appointment, Kenny. I could have been out on a case and you just can't show up.
Kenny: I figured with me, you'll make an exception.
Kyle: What can I help you with, Kenny?
Kenny: Not sure if you're aware, but Stacy and I are divorced and I need your help to put her in jail for a very long time.
Kyle: I don't think you can arrest jealous ex wives, Kenny, unless she committed a crime.
Kenny: She broke into my house and that's only a misdemeanor. She threatened revenge on me. my daughter and even Tova.
Kyle: Wait, why would she threaten my daughter?
Kenny: Ever since my divorce was final, I started dating Tova and I hope you're okay with that.
Kyle: With you dating Tova? I'm okay and a bit skeptical of the age difference, but you two are consenting adults and I trust you.
Kenny: Like it or not, Stacy is capable of violence and I need a case stronger, than a misdemeanour. Your wife is a detective and deals with a lot of unsolved cases. Maybe we can help her close a case by framing Stacy as a suspect.
Kyle: Kenny, I'm worried about you. We are attorneys that do everything by the book.
Kenny: Well, this is different. Wrong, but different.
Kyle sighs, gives into Kenny's suggestion.
Kyle: So, when is Stacy's court hearing?
Kenny: In a three hours at the Greenport Justice courthouse. You think you can find suitable charge for by then?
Kyle: First, I need to see her case file.
Kenny hands over two folders, that he brought with him, to Kyle and Kyle opens them up.
Kyle: (confused) What's this assault charge?
Kenny: That's for Jenny. You see, she nearly put Lucky in the hospital, so Lucky wanted to press charges. That hearing is also around the same time.
Kyle: And you're coming to me, to help you out, cause it's conflict of interest.
Kenny: Exactly and I trust you.
Kyle: Well, I'm sure Erica can find a suitable charge to put Stacy away for a long time, but not sure it will stick in court.
Kenny: I'll pray that it does.
Back at school and during lunch, Lucky sits down with Callum and Adria, who couldn't wait to update her on the progress of Dandy.
Lucky: (to Adria) I'm confused. I thought nothing happened between you and Dandy.
Adria: Well, it turns out that the videos were only to get him back, from when he called me "Lucky" on our date.
Lucky: So, why is he in jail?
Adria: He thought it was funny, spreading all those rumors, that we had sex. I just wanna show him how serious it is.
Callum: We're just messing with him, though, since our dad's a cop and the officer that arrested him on Friday.
Lucky: So, are you ever gonna let him out of jail?
Callum: If there was a law to keep idiots in jail, he'd be in there a long time. For now, he needs to be taught a lesson.
Adria: Never mess with the Sterlings.
Lucky: Well, you better end the joke soon, cause his father is looking for a lawyer.
Callum: We'll let our dad question him, then release him afterwards, cause there's a law on how long you can keep someone in jail without actual circumstances.
Lucky: And you think this experience will change him?
Adria: If not, then Dandy's really an asshole.
At the police station, Officer Sterling comes into the holding room and faces Dandy, who is still behind bars. Before he could say anything to Dandy, Stacy makes a comment.
Stacy: It's been almost a week, Officer. How long do we gotta stay here?
Officer Sterling: Your hearing is later today, so calm down.
Then Sterling puts his focus back on Dandy.
Dandy: When is my hearing? So I can get out of here.
Officer Sterling: It depends. Did you have sex with Adria Sterling?
Dandy: No, I didn't, so I don't know what's she said to involve the cops.
Officer Sterling: With all the rumors at school, saying that you did, the law had to act on it. Statutory rape is a serious offense. So, I wanna know who started these rumors.
Dandy: I did, cause my friends expected me to score that weekend, so I lied.
Officer Sterling: You wanna know something? Adria is my daughter and she told me to do this, just to get you back for bragging about sleeping with her.
Dandy: So, this is some kind of cruel joke?
Officer Sterling: No, this is payback for being an asshole.
Dandy: Can you let me out, now?
Officer Sterling: Since there's no record of you being held here, I have to let you go. But if my kids have anymore complaints about you, I'll lock you in here a lot longer, than three days. Understand?
Dandy: Yes, of course.
Jenny sees the police officer unlocking Dandy's cell and she's not happy about it.
Jenny: Wait a minute, he gets out? (to Dandy) You suck.
Dandy: Cause I didn't do anything wrong, so...
Dandy blows raspberries at Jenny and leaves. The moment that Dandy steps outside the police station, he gets his cell phone out of his pocket and leaves a message on his dad's cell phone.
Dandy: (into phone) Dad, good news. I'm out of jail, so no need to get a lawyer.
Dandy ends the call, puts phone in his back pocket and walks off smiling.
