Dear Diary,
I stayed in this town for 2 months now. Meeting new people and staying in this motel. Graham offering me a job as deputy. Even though I'm 19 in human years. One of the nuns help babysit Jenna so that I can work. I think Henry is Emma's son. Today is October 22 and today is Emma's birthday. I hope it's the day that she comes to Storybrooke.
To the motel.
Melissa and Jenna was asleep alnight until the phone was ringing and she answers it.
"Hello" Melissa answers
"Melissa, I need you come to the station. It's important." Graham said
"Ok" Melissa said
Melissa get's dressed and get's her daughter dressed. Starts heading out but first she starts knocking on Ruby's door. Ruby comes out.
"Melissa what are you doing? It's 3:30am." Ruby said
"I know but duty calls. Can you watch her this one time?" Melissa asked
"Sure" Ruby said
To the station.
"Sheriff." Melissa said
"Deputy." Graham said
"What seems to be the problem?" Melissa asked Graham
"Take a look for yourself." Graham said
Melissa sees Emma in the jail cell unconsious. She knew she be in Storybrooke. So she played along.
"Graham who is that? I've never seen her here." Melissa said
"This is Emma Swan. Henry's biological mother." Graham explain
Melissa looking up some paper work while waiting 8 hours for Emma to wake up. They're are in another room.
"What are you trying to tell me?" Graham said
"As your deputy, if this woman said who she is. Claiming to be Henry's biological mother. I figure that we should give her a chance to hear her side of the story. (Graham sighs.) I was here for like 2 months now. You gave me a job as deputy. And I love this job. Helping people." Melissa said
"Alright." Graham said
Both Melissa and Graham walking out of the office, enters the room and Melissa unlocks Leroy's cell.
"Leroy! If I'm going to let you out, you need to behave. Put on a smile and stay out of trouble." Melissa said
Leroy smiles sarcastically, and leaves.
"Seriously?" Emma said
"Regina's drinks are a little stronger than we thought." Graham said
"I wasn't drunk. There was a wolf standing in the middle of the road." Emma said
"A wolf. Right." Graham said
Regina enters and calls for both Graham and Melissa.
"Graham! Melissa! Henry's run away again. We have to… What is she doing here? Do you know where he is?" Regina asked Emma
"Honey, I haven't seen him since I dropped him at your house. And, I have a pretty good alibi." Emma said
"Yeah, well, he wasn't in his room this morning." Regina said
"Did you try his friends?" Emma asked Regina
"He doesn't really have any. He's kind of a loner." Regina said
"Every kid has friends. Did you check his computer? If he's close to someone, he'd be emailing them." Emma said
"And you know this how?" Regina asked
"Finding people is what I do. Here's an idea. How about you guys let me out and I'll help you find him? (Melissa unlocks Emma's cell.) Thanks." Emma thanking Melissa
"Don't mention it." Melissa said
Mill's Residence.
The four of them are in Henry's room. Emma is searching through Henry's computer.
"Smart kid – cleared his inbox. I'm smart too. A little hard disk recovery utility I like to use…" Emma said
Emma get's out a hard drive.
"I'm a bit more old fashioned in my techniques. Pounding the pavement, knocking on doors, that sort of thing." Graham said
"Questioned them recently." Melissa said
"You're on salary. I get paid for delivery. Pounding the pavement is not a luxury that I get. Huh. His receipt for a website. It's expensive. He has a credit card?" Emma asked
"He's ten." Regina said
"Well, he used one. Let's pull up a transaction record. Mary Margaret Blanchard… Who's Mary Margaret Blanchard?" Emma asked
"That would be his teacher." Melissa said
Night
At the motel.
Melissa walks down stairs holding Jenna and she spots Emma.
"Emma." Melissa said
"Hey." Emma said
"So you started to stay here?" Melissa asked Emma
"Just a week." Emma said
"Oh." Melissa said
"I'm guessing this is your daughter I heard so much about?" Emma asked Melissa
"This is Jenna." Melissa said
"She's beautiful." Emma said
"Thank you. Jenna and I should gets some sleep. I had a long day so." Melissa said
"You live here? In the motel?" Emma asked again
"Me and Jenna are new here too. We've moved here 2 months ago. (Emma gave Melissa a look.) Night, Emma." Melissa said
"Night." Emma said
