Helga led the girls over to the Ice Cream parlor, but unbeknown to her Arnold, Gerald and Sid were losing the stalling battle...
"Okay, ya'll I'm heading home." Stinky stated standing up
"Wait...um how bout one more?" Arnold pleaded.
"Nope, I's don't care if yous alls wants to become Ice Cream blimps, but Is don't so Is heading home." Stinky said heading out the door.
Arnold ran after him, leaving Gerald and Sid bewildered.
Stinky turned the corner.....and WHAM slammed right into Rhonda who had been walking in front of Helga, Phoebe and Nadine.
At first niether one realized who they had ran into.
Stinky stood up, and reaching his hand down to the girl he saw lying on the sidewalk.
"I'm so sorry miss..I's just a dang clutz... I guess today just ain't my day...I's just messing up everything..."
Rhonda looked up, to see Stinky standing over her.
"Miss Rhonda!??" Stinky said in shock.. before turning the corner and running...
"St… Stinky?" Rhonda stuttered from the ground.
"That's just Great, we spent all that time getting them here, and then nothing happens!! How many Ice creams did we eat to keep him here?" Sid said, clutching his stomach.
"SID! Watch what you're saying!" Helga yelled, clapping her hand against his mouth.
"What do you mean 'getting them here',?" Asked Rhonda, getting up, "Was this some way of getting me to talk to Stinky? It won't help! Stinky doesn't like me! Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going home!"
"Rhonda! Wait, It wasn't like that at all!" Nadine said catching Rhonda's arm as she turned way.
"It's Exactly like that, You all tried to get Me and Stinky to talk at the Ice cream palor, Well it's to bad it didn't work out, because Stinky hates me so much that he started running even just from seeing me!" With that she also ran, tears flying.
"Rhonda, please wait!!" Nadine called, running after her.
"Nice going, Sid." Gerald stated.
"Yeah, if you hadn't said anything then Rhonda would have just thought we bumped into you guys" Helga said angrily, her plan might not have worked, but at least she would have been able to make another plan.
"It's not Sid's fault, It's yours and mine Helga, for trying to meddle with peoples lives, maybe they'll start talking to each other again if we just leave them alone…" Arnold started to say.
" I think it is a highly unlikely event that Stinky and Rhonda will start talking to eachother again without someone trying to get them to, You heard what Rhonda Said, didn't you? She said that Stinky hated her, and Stinky most likely thinks the same, proven by the way he ran off without saying anything to her.
The was a silence, as there always is after something phoebe had said, then Helga said, "So what are we going to do?"
"Well, it's quite apparent that the two parties involved have no intention of speaking to each other, but have to resolve this predicament somehow..." Phoebe said, trying to develop an idea.
Helga just started grinning... "I have an idea..." she said quietly.
"What Helga?" Arnold questioned.
"Simple...make them so jealous they want to get back together..."
"Huh?" the group replied as one.
"I think what Helga is saying is that, if we pair up Rhonda and Stinky with another person, the other will become jealous and come crawling back.." Phoebe stated
"But who?" Arnold said....as Helga shot a glance at him
"NO! No way Helga! I will not do this..." Arnold said backing away
"I can't believe I'm doing this..." Arnold said knocking on Rhonda's door.
"Arnold?!? What are you doing here?" Rhonda said answering the door..her eyes still red from crying.
"Well, I was just wondering if you were okay....I was worried about you." Arnold said, trying to act concerned.
"You wwwwere?" Rhonda stammered.
"Yes, I was..." Arnold replied...all the while thinking..'I can't believe Helga talked me into this, then again...she was going to take care of Stinky...'
"Why don't you come in Arnold.." Rhonda said opening the door wider.
Arnold took a deep breath and headed in.
Meanwhile..
"Well, Helga you're a genius...hook Arnold up with the Fashion Queen, till you get Stinky back with her...then Lila can't get near Arnold...ha! This is great!" Helga said walking up to Stinky's door.
"Oh, howdy Helga..." a dejected Stinky said answering it.
"Hey Stinky, are you okay?"
"Is guess so...my heart's just all torn up though.."
"Well, maybe you should try to move on.."
"I can't Helga...Is just can't forget her."
"Can't you try to Stinky? For me?"
"For you? You mean? You like me Helga..."
"I'm not sure Stinky....I'm just....worried about you.." Helga said, quickly covering her slip-up.
"Well this is plumb sure one of the most curious turn of events I ever did see I'm sorry Helga, I wish ya had done told me this during the time that I liked ya back but like I said, I's still just head-over-heals over Miss Rhonda"
Helga frowned, her plan wasn't working, "Well ok Stinky, I guess I should have never come in the first place Sorry again" And she turned and ran, hoping she at least looked upset.
"I didn't think I'd ever say anything like this, but I really hope Arnold is doing a good job getting Rhonda to like him." Helga thought as she continued to run.
"Why are you worried? You where one of the people trying to get Stinky to talk to me, it doesn't make much sense that you're here"
"Well It really wasn't my idea to do that, I was just brought along" Arnold said, not liking the idea of lying to someone who was so hurt already.
"I knew you wouldn't do something stupid like that, Arnold, you're too nice, thanks for coming to cheer me up, it worked, a little at least" She said, making Arnold feel even guilty.
"Well, I guess I'll see you tomorrow, then" Arnold said, turning to leave" but Rhonda first caught him in a hug.
"Yeah, see you tomorrow, Thanks again, Arnold." then she relinquished him, and he left.
"I really hope Helga knows what she's gotten us into"
Helga ran, and then she felt someone grab her wrist. She snapped her head around to see Stinky.
"Stinky? What the?"
"Helga, I done thought it over..yes I still like Rhonda, but maybe if I hang out with you...I'll feel better."
"Uh....okay Stinky...maybe you'd come to the movies with me tomorrow?"
"Sure Helga." Stinky said hugging the surprised Helga "And thanks for caring Helga, I's always said you had a soft spot."
Helga backed away..."Yeah..well I have to...uh...go now." Helga said running around the corner.
Once she was further away, she muttered to herself. "What have I gotten myself into?"
"I don't know Helga, what have you gotten us into?" Said Arnold confronting her.
"Arnold!?! What are you..? What do you mean..?"
"Helga, Rhonda likes me now... I don't think that will help Stinky any..."
"Sounds like you did just as good as me.... Stinky thinks I like him now too...but he still hasn't gotten over Rhonda."
"He hasn't? Then there is hope! Helga this is great!" Arnold said hugging Helga..who just about fainted in his arms.
"But what in the world do we do now? Just sit around and try to get the other jealous? I'm not sure how that'll work out." Arnold stated thoughtfully.
"Well, Neither do I, football-head." Helga said.
"Neither do I? Does that mean you haven't thought this plan all the way through?!" asked Arnold.
"Um… Not really, but it'll have to work now that we've put it into action." Helga started to get a bit nervous, she couldn't very well tell him that she did this to get him away from Miss Priss, could she?
"I really don't understand you sometimes, but I guess we'll have to hope that something good will come of this."
"Yep, Now if you don't mind football-head, I need to go home and figure out what I'm wearing to the movies tomorrow" Helga said sarcastically.
"The movies?"
"Yeah, I'm going with Stinky, another part of the plan I didn't think through too well" she spat, continuing to walk away, not sure why she was so angry.
"Wait! We have to figure out what to do from here! Stinky hasn't gotten over Rhonda, and I'm so sure Rhonda hasn't gotten over stinky either, If we think together…." But Arnold realized then that Helga was gone, and he was talking to himself, "I'll never understand her."
"Okay, ya'll I'm heading home." Stinky stated standing up
"Wait...um how bout one more?" Arnold pleaded.
"Nope, I's don't care if yous alls wants to become Ice Cream blimps, but Is don't so Is heading home." Stinky said heading out the door.
