*Continued during Phoebe and Helga's chat*
Helga: Yeah, I know...
Phoebe: What made you say that?
Helga: Well Arnold wanted to call a momentary truce and I was confused for a second...
*Flash-Back*
Arnold: So Helga, is there any way we can call a momentary truce or something?
Helga: What do u mean?
Arnold: Well Helga I know that we dont get along that much, and well as you know I would rather have been paired up with any person in the world including chocolate boy than have to be your partner. And no offence Helga but I really can't stand you.
Helga: What? w-w- well you know what Arnold! You know what Arnold its not my fault that your just a stupid idiotic foot ball head who has no parents except for a wacky gradma and a no clue grandpa!!!!
Arnold: What???? How could you say that Helga? (starts tearing up) I mean Helga I know your not the nicest person in the world but i mean I at least thought you were better than that!!!!!!!!!!!!
Helga: OMG I didn't mean to say that to you Arnold! I am SOOOOOO sorry Arnold please! I did not just say that!
Arnold:(crying now) At least you have parents Helga your lucky, Im never going to talk to you ever again I thought we were at least mutual friends!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Arnold runs into his side of the tent and zips it up along with the blackout screen.
*End Flash-Back*
Helga: And thats what happend Phoebs.
Phoebe: Helga I'm so sorry for you, im not sure I know what to do, but I think I might have an idea if you'd like to hear it.
Helga: Spill it Phoebe! Theres got to be some way to be able to get Arnold to speak to me.
Phoebe: Well, I know that you don't like Lila yet I think she might be able to help you with you problem.
Helga:(Perkier) Yeah you right Phoebe! Even though I can' stand "Little Miss Perfect" she might be the only person to help me. THANKS PHOEBS!
Phoebe: Welcome!
*Helga goes over to talk to Lila*
Helga:(Somewhat Pleasant) Hi Lila.
Lila: Oh Hi Helga! How are you doing on this ever so pleasant day?
Helga:(to herself) Oh brother! (Outloud) Not very good Lila, in fact I need your help...
Lila: Oh, thats ever so great that you need my help! So what ever can I help you with?
Helga: Well I made Arnold mad at me and sad for himself.
Lila: But Helga I thought that you liked Arn-
Helga:(covers up Lila's mouth quickly) Lila!!!!
Lila: O yeah Im ever so sorry Helga I ever so much forgot that I shouldn't say that outloud...So whats your problem?
Helga: Well...
Lila: Come on Helga, you can tell me!
Helga: ...I insulted Arnold and said mean things to him.
Lila: To Arnold?
Helga:(To Herself) Doi (outloud): Yes, to Arnold.
Lila: Well the only thing I can think of is to appologize to him.
Helga: I already tried that and it that didn't work...
Lila: I cant understand why it wouldn't work!!
Helga: Well Lila sometimes things just don't work the way that they are planned too.
Lila: Yes, you're ever so right Helga. If you would like me to, I could talk to Arnold for you.
Helga: Ummm...Okay Lila! Whats the harm in letting you talk to him, I mean he's not mad at you.
Lila: He is not mad at me, but even in Arnold's state, he might try to make advances toward me. If he does Helga, then I will put up with it no more and will have to tell him straight.
Helga: As long as you try Lila. And I really appriciate it. No use having no hope.
Lila: Yes Helga, you are right... hope is just what you need.
{What will happen to Helga and Arnold?? Stay tuned..}
